Time is in a hurry, and most of the half year will soon pass. And now it seems that the historical Northern Expedition to the Turks is getting closer and closer, and the weather is gradually coming to autumn, and it will begin to turn into winter at any time. And all the ministries also began to prepare in an orderly manner, ready to send troops to the Turks at any time. And now, it's just an excuse, an excuse to add to the sin.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

The bell of Chang'an rang again, and everyone came to the Taiji Palace to gather.

"Ladies and gentlemen, just now the acting governor of the prefecture, Zhang Gongjin, came to me, claiming that the Turks are constantly invading our Tang Dynasty and plundering our Tang people. As the Emperor, I am a citizen, and I am furious when I hear this. That's why I decided to mobilize a large army and go out to conquer the Turks! Li Shimin said.

And at this time, someone immediately said: "Your Majesty, it is almost the middle of winter, and we are attacking the Turks at this time, and it is just when the Turks are in short supply, we can take the opportunity to eliminate them and completely solve the crisis in our north!" ”

"yes, yes! Your Majesty, it is unbearable for the Turks to invade our borders and kill my people, so we must destroy them! ”

And Chen Fei was speechless, these guys all shot up like this, and they were soon able to argue for various reasons, and then find reasons for Li Shimin's Northern Expedition at this time. And this time, Li Shimin came up with the reason that the Turks attacked the Tang Dynasty, and this kind of attack is actually frequent. Many times the Turks will cross the border to the border to pick quarrels and provoke trouble, and usually when Datang does not want to fight back, he can only endure it. Obviously, the Tang Dynasty wants to fight back, and it also wants to suddenly destroy the Turks, of course, it is to use this as an excuse to attack. Chen Fei is sure that even if there is no such excuse, Li Shimin will find an excuse at that time, after all, there is no excuse for the crime that wants to be added to it.

"Your Majesty, now you are fully armed. All kinds of weapons have already been produced, and armament is definitely not a problem. Our Datang's ordnance can be used for the army to fight! Chen Fei immediately took the opportunity to come out and say.

Chen Fei focused on ordnance, and his position was Kubu Langzhong, so he also used ordnance as a reason to explain that attacking the Turks was not a problem. And this reason is very weighty, after all, the three armies did not move the grain and grass first, and ordnance is also a very important thing. Only when the armament is complete can war be waged. If you don't even have weapons, how can you attack the enemy?

"Okay, Chen Aiqing, you have prepared all the ordnance this time. That was the first contribution of our Northern Expedition to the Turks. Li Shimin said.

For almost a year, Chen Fei has been responsible for the production of ordnance, which can be regarded as a heavy responsibility. If the ordnance cannot be gathered, there is no way to send out war. And now the ordnance is not only complete, but also very sufficient, which gives Li Shimin the ambition to start a war. Therefore, Li Shimin is also very excited now, because he can have the capital to start a war, which is also the capital given to him by Chen Fei. The war is all about logistics, so Chen Fei's ordnance was produced in time. That is, it provided Li Shimin with sufficient logistical support.

"Okay, I appointed Li Jing, the secretary of the military department, as the general manager of the Dingxiang Road march, to lead my Tang army's northern expedition to the Turks!" Li Shimin said.

"The emperor is wise!" "The emperor is wise, this time we must wash away the shame of the past!" "The Turks attacked our Chang'an last time. We will not tolerate it. We must also destroy the Turks this time! ”……

Countless people began to chant, apparently loudly praising the wisdom of Li Shimin, the emperor. Moreover, the Tang Dynasty and the Turks have long been irreconcilable, because in ancient East Asia, there could only be one powerful country. Either it is the civilization of the Central Plains, or it is the steppe nomads of the north. This national contradiction is not so easy to resolve, so they will inevitably break out into war. Either when one side is strong. Only then can we completely defeat the other side, so that we can make ourselves the hegemon of East Asia.

In fact, everyone has been prepared for this attack on the Turks. For this Turkic war, everyone has already gotten some rumors, otherwise why would Chen Fei produce so many ordnance? These ordnance are produced according to the standard of 300,000 troops, and there are countless bows and crossbows of all kinds, if there is no war, why produce so many ordnance and equipment! Now that the world is too peaceful, there is no need for so many ordnance, but Chen Fei still produced it, and this has to make everyone suspicious. No matter what you do, you are not a fool, how can you not know that war is about to break out!

So everyone is still prepared for the outbreak of war. And the object of this war, except for the Turks, there must be no one else. Everyone knows that Li Shimin is an emperor who wants to save face, so this time he was bullied by the Turks three years ago, how could it be if he didn't get back to the field. Therefore, whether it is a strategy at the national level or a personal grudge, it is necessary to find a way back. If he doesn't get back into the field, then he, the emperor, really doesn't have to mess around. Especially as an emperor who has conquered the country on the battlefield, he can't tolerate his face being insulted.

What's more, in the past, it hit the capital, and Datang was almost forced to cede land and pay compensation and relatives, which is a great insult. The alliance under the city is a very huge insult, so everyone naturally has to find a place to go. Being beaten to the capital to be persecuted, this is something that no promising emperor can accept. So if you don't want to find time to take revenge, that's a big oddity.

This Northern Expedition to the Turks is already imperative, so everyone will not say anything. Instead of thinking about what to say, it is better to think about how to make meritorious contributions in this Northern Expedition to the Turks, and then gain political capital to get promoted and make a fortune. Since ancient times, war has been an activity that has the greatest benefits, and both civilian and military generals have been able to gain political capital through war. Therefore, every war is a gluttonous feast. If it was the early days of the founding of the country, then war was even more popular with everyone. Unless it is in the middle and late stages, the civil officials will reject the war in order to suppress the status of military generals. However, in the early days of the founding of the country, many people wanted to use the war to obtain knighthoods, which was the reason why everyone supported the war.

Even Chen Fei now hopes that there will be a war, after all, he is responsible for the production of ordnance, and if the war is won, then all his work will be meaningful. If war hadn't broken out, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to get his military exploits, and the past year's work would have been in vain. (To be continued......)
