"Your Majesty, if you transfer troops to King Qin, what will those army of King Qin think? Will they have the idea of blackmailing the Son of Heaven to order the princes? Yu Wenshi said.

The scene suddenly fell silent, because this was a very dangerous thing. After all, if those armies coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, what would they do with these high-ranking officials of the imperial court? Then I am afraid that they will all be cleaned up, so will they lose their power? This is a matter of vital interest, and they cannot afford not to ignore it.

But Chen Fei saw this situation and immediately said: "Prince, in fact, the minister thinks that this matter is not so complicated!" Perhaps, everyone should think too much. ”

"Oh? What did you say? Things aren't that complicated? Are we thinking too much? Li Shimin asked.

Chen Fei immediately continued: "Prince, in fact, if we issue an edict to King Qin, then the armies from all walks of life will send no more than 10,000 troops, then after they come to Chang'an, they will not be subordinate to each other, and none of them will have the absolute strength to subdue others, so in this case, a balance will be formed." And we, the central high-ranking officials, that is, the people who maintain the balance, as long as we don't die ourselves, then they can't blackmail the Son of Heaven to order the princes in this situation. And we are not without strength, we have tens of thousands of troops, and each of their generals only leads 10,000 troops to King Qin, unless they all collude. But is this possible? The minister thinks that I still have a lot of loyal ministers in the Tang Dynasty, so I won't be so unlucky, and everyone will collude to blackmail the Son of Heaven to order the princes, right? ”

"Besides, we have righteousness. The Turks attacked, and that was the great righteousness. Will they give up fighting against the Turks and rebel? If they allow the Turks to wreak havoc on our Datang, then they will also lose the support of the people, and even if they rebel, they will not gain support. Therefore, on the whole, as long as our central court does not die by itself, the local princes will have absolutely no chance to rebel! ”

Only then did everyone remember that they had tens of thousands of troops under the direct jurisdiction here, and those local princes sent troops to the King of Qin were only no more than 10,000 each, could they all collude together and rebel together? This is obviously not possible. And the Datang Center can also take the opportunity to balance, and they have no possibility of rebellion at all. Therefore, as long as the center itself does not seek death, then they can maintain the balance of the various armies, and then it will be impossible for them to do anything at that time. Moreover, the Turks are raging, and it is impossible for them to give up the great righteousness of fighting against the Turks, and in turn take the opportunity to rebel. If they dare to do that, then they will not win the hearts and minds of the people. Although there was no nationalism in ancient times, there was still the idea that people who were not of our race would have different hearts. If the Turks want to attack, then all the Han Chinese will be forced to unite temporarily and then fight the Turks first. So with this righteousness, those princes didn't dare to do anything.

And everyone agreed with this statement when they heard this. Because just now they all subconsciously thought that King Qin was not a good thing, and now that their doubts have been dispelled, it can be regarded as solving this problem. Anyway, send troops to King Qin, don't be afraid of them rebelling. And those who can rebel in the name of King Qin are all empty of the center, and they can only be done when there are no foreign enemies. And now there are foreign enemies of the Turks, and the center will not be empty, and those who want to take advantage of the opportunity of King Qin to rebel will not be able to do it.

"Prince, in fact, there is another way. In the name of the emperor's military parade, we can order elite troops from all over the country to be dispatched and then brought to Chang'an for a review. And after the Turks came, we could also take the opportunity to reorganize them and put them on the battlefield. When the time comes, after the Turks are repulsed, we can also take the opportunity to bring these soldiers back to the central government, and those generals can also take the opportunity to stay in Chang'an as Beijing officials and enjoy glory and wealth. Chen Fei said.

"It's so ruthless!" Everyone thought to themselves.

Chen Fei's idea was actually to take advantage of this Turkic invasion and then let the troops from all over the country come to King Qin. After defeating the Turks, the armies of various regions were unified and reorganized into a central army, so that the strength of the local princes would also be weakened. Then those generals who came to King Qin will also be left in Chang'an. At that time, they will be forced to serve in Oh Chang'an, acting as Beijing officials without military power. As for the marching governors and various governors in those places, they will also be abolished and put back under the management of local civil officials. In this way, the court of the Tang Dynasty will be safe, and it can be said that it is the essence of using the pressure of foreign enemies to reduce the feudal domain.

In fact, this is to turn bad things into good things, and turn the Turkic invasion into an act of taking advantage of the central government's seizure of power. And the local princes can't say anything, they can only pinch their noses and admit it. This has to be said to be ruthless enough, and ordinary people can't think of it at all.

"Chen joins the army, you are not simple! Take one step and look at ten steps, we didn't think of it, you actually thought of it? Fang Xuanling suddenly sighed.

And Chen Fei immediately said: "Mr. Fang is falsely praised, where can you compare to Mr. Fang!" Mr. Fang, you are one of the most important advisors around the prince, and you still want to learn from Mr. Fang! ”

"Needless to say, this time we are all wise and wise, and we didn't expect you to add it!" Fang Xuanling sighed and said.

And Chen Fei immediately humbled himself and said: "I'm also a fool with a thousand worries or a gain!" ”

"Hahahaha......" Chen Fei and Fang Xuanling both laughed.

"Well, that's it, you don't have to flatter each other. This time, Chen Fei was able to think of it in time and put forward the idea when he joined the army, which was the first credit. Therefore, hurry up to mobilize the soldiers and horses, and let the princes from all walks of life personally bring the troops over to participate in the school parade. And we deliberately didn't say anything about the transfer of troops to the king, and when they came, we couldn't help them. When the time comes, in the name of fighting the Turks, it will be incorporated into the Central Army, and after the Turks are gone, we will take the opportunity to leave those princes as officials in Chang'an, or redistribute their positions to completely eliminate future troubles! Remember, today's events are top secret, and no one can reveal them. If anyone reveals it, the lone king will be severely punished! Li Shimin said.

"Command!" Everybody said.

All of you here are Beijing officials, so naturally you don't want those local princes to continue to hold local power, so it is not good for them to hold power. Therefore, they will not support those local princes to control the military and political power in the local area.
