A pot of porridge was drunk for almost an hour, up to Li Daozong, the king of Jiangxia, and down to Shang Yuan to Feng Yu Xue Wanbei, but they were all scared of the cold, and asked the eldest grandson Wuji about the logistics and supply situation, and asked the eldest grandson Wuji's head two circles, the old fox has a tough attitude all his life, and this time he made a second crying and racking his brains to make up how the back road is smooth.

Especially Li Daozong, when he heard the grain that the eldest grandson Wuji transported from Jinzhou, he actually had a feeling of relief, a pot of porridge saw the bottom, and the generals who knew it in their hearts also withdrew from the tent with a smile, and they had not acted for three days.

It is no wonder that Li Shimin himself has reached the point of wearing single clothes and being frozen, according to the progress of history, at this time, the Tang army should have withdrawn for more than half a month, Li Shimin is so stubborn, but at this moment the Tang army is dragged to the point of exhaustion.

Five days ago, the army's salary had been halved, and the words of the civil and military officials asking for the withdrawal of the army fell like snowflakes, and the heavenly khan was also forced to have no choice, so he personally wore a single coat and accompanied the soldiers to be frozen together to express his determination, which blocked the mouths of the generals, otherwise how could the dignified emperor lack a winter coat?

Fortunately, the eldest grandson Wuji came back in time.

The eldest grandson Wuji was shocked as he flipped through the piles of tables, and on the other hand, Li Shimin took the last bite of porridge and threw the bowl back into the pot very casually.

"Auxiliary, how much benefit did that kid want when he went to Jinzhou this time?"

Li Shimin's words, the eldest grandson Wuji who listened to it all of a sudden, looked at him stunned, Li Shimin smiled heartily: "There's no fuss, that kid didn't even want the white hoof Wu that day, he already hated me, this kid didn't run back to the Central Plains to recuperate, it was already for the sake of Le'er, even if I let my eccentric father suffer for a while, he would delay it for a few more days." ”

"However, it's hard to be this father!" Speaking of this, Li Shimin sighed again, listening to it, the eldest grandson Wuji didn't dare to take it on with such a big grin, but took out two copies of the text from his sleeve, handed them over respectfully, and took one at random, and after opening it, even Li Shimin choked.

"Hey, 500,000 yuan, this kid is ruthless enough, it seems that the free lunch will really not be eaten in the future!" Aiming at this military supply table, Li Shimin couldn't help grinning in pain, and the eldest grandson Wuji, who listened to it, frowned again, stretched out his hand and handed over the second fold, took it suspiciously and looked at it twice, and Li Shimin threw it back again.

"King Shuo's impeachment of King Liao, wasn't it more than half a month ago"? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, King Shuo said that according to the agreement with the Ministry of Industry of the Imperial Court, the first batch of 10,000 sets of cotton clothes, as well as the second batch of spirits and medicinal materials and other goods were all detained by the King of Liao.

"In the territory of the Governor's Mansion, there are many thieves, and the King of Liao is very careless in cooperating with the transfer, he is slow to mobilize the people, and even often deducts food and salary.

"King Shuo's side..."After hesitating, the eldest grandson Wuji actually had a feeling of falling the price and whispered: "Although it is convenient for King Shuo to mobilize materials, he is no longer willing to use his heart unless he is tempted by ten times the benefits, and it is not something that the imperial court can afford, according to this price, it is not impossible to support the army through the war materials for the whole winter, at least more than seven million or even tens of millions." ”

"Your Majesty, in order to conquer Liaodong, the imperial court has invested thousands of dollars in advance, and most of the money and silk accumulated over the years have been empty, so I can't afford to fight like this!"

The dignified Tang Dynasty cried poorly, which really made the eldest grandson Wuji lose face, and after listening to his narration, Li Shimin also shook his head with a headache.

"Alas, my father is really a failure, the eldest son hates me, the ninth son hates me, and the fourth son also hates me, although Qingque is still so attentive to me, but I am not a fool, and I can feel his resentment."

The eldest grandson Wuji's heart twitched violently again, where did the resentment come from? The loss of the prince's dispute, but this is a taboo topic, and the eldest grandson Wuji still doesn't dare to take it.

"Auxiliary, what is your opinion?" Fortunately, with a sigh of emotion, Li Shimin turned back to business, his spirit was shocked, and the eldest grandson Wuji hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "Retire!" ”

Although Li Jie is his son-in-law, after all, the eldest grandson Wuji is still the servant of the Tang Dynasty, Sikong, what he says and does must start from the overall situation of the Tang Dynasty, even if Li Jie wants to make this national disaster again, he can't agree.

"Retirement? No, you can't retreat! As expected, Li Shimin immediately shook his head like a rattle, but even if he expected it, the eldest grandson Wuji still gritted his teeth and stepped forward to clench his fists and admonished: "Even if you don't retreat back to the Central Plains, the army will retreat to the territory of the Liaodong Governor's Mansion, straighten out the logistics and supplies, and spend the winter, Your Majesty, otherwise, the imperial court's finances will be dragged down by the war sooner or later, and the disaster of the former Sui will be staged." ”

"Otherwise, I am the emperor immediately, Goguryeo has been dominating Liaodong since the Han Dynasty, for the disaster of the frontier, Goguryeo's terrain is important, once the hero is born, the land of Hebei is not safe, and it can be a disaster for the world in an instant, I have reached the year of knowing the destiny of heaven, I don't get rid of it, I'm afraid that the child of the child will not have the courage to fight such a big battle."

"What's more, you can't retreat now, once you retreat, the breath that the soldiers are holding will be dispersed, so even if you make a comeback next year, it will be more difficult to fight, and the will of the Goguryeo people to resist will be stronger, and now Anshi City has been surrounded by our army on three sides, and it is this will to fight!"

Although what Li Shimin said was very reasonable, but looking at his bloodshot eyes and high-spirited look, the eldest grandson Wuji couldn't help but think of a person, Emperor Yang Guang of Sui.

Don't think that Yang Guang is an incompetent idiot who has lost the country, in fact, those who can play the means to get to the top, Yang Guang's shrewdness and talent are much more than what he can on the surface, but the more capable and heroic and courageous people are, the more they can't accept failure, Yang Guang is like this, why is Li Shimin in front of him not like this?

"Your Majesty!" Full of anxiety, the eldest grandson Wuji knelt on the ground again, clenched his fists and pleaded, but he didn't expect Li Shimin to raise his beard again, and stretched out his hand to help the eldest grandson Wuji.

"Okay, I know what you're thinking, I'm better than Emperor Yang of Sui, but I have another advantage, I have more capable sons than him, I can't go back, so I changed the title of King Shuo to Hebei Province as the transit ambassador, how about being responsible for logistics and supply?"

Holding his head high, Li Shimin said proudly, the eldest grandson Wuji who listened to it was just an old man, you still know how much you failed as a father, and how much your son hates himself, in this case, how could King Shuo accept this official position?

"Well, Your Majesty, do you want to think about this again? After all, the full power of the Liaodong Governor's Mansion has been handed over to Li Tai, the king of Liao..."Holding his fist, the eldest grandson Wuji asked cautiously again, not wanting Li Shimin to wave his hand again: "No need, after capturing Anshi City, a large area of land in the north will be returned to King Shuo, and the Andong Protectorate will be established for him, Jie'er is a smart person, and he will not make too much trouble at this time in front of him, he will accept it." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji almost didn't vomit blood again, no wonder Li Jie said before, this is no longer a war that belongs to him, and the hard-fought Anshi City doesn't want to give it to him, the gold in your old eyes, in the eyes of King Shuo, it is worthless, recalling the price of rice at the negotiation seat Li Jie did not give in, the eldest grandson Wuji is head is a few points bigger, and he clenched his fists with sorrow.

"This is up to Your Majesty to decide, the old minister is tired..."

"Auxiliary, I know that I have worked hard for you, but now King Shuo has a deep grudge against me, and as his uncle, your words can be listened to by him, this time, I am also bothering the auxiliary machine to walk for me!" As he spoke, arching his hands, Li Shimin bowed slightly.

The emperor begged in person, for the courtiers, there is no greater glory than this, but unfortunately for the worshiped eldest grandson Wuji, he wanted to cry for a while, and reached out to support Li Shimin's arm with tears in his eyes, "grateful" and wiped his tears and replied: "Old minister, do your best!" ”

In fact, as the eldest grandson Wuji expected, five days later, in the banquet hall of the splendid golden ship in Jinzhou Bay, sitting on the left-hand side, Li Jie jumped up in disbelief and shouted in surprise: "Father-in-law, you didn't know about our secret discussion before, and at this time, let Gu go to be a thankless Hebei Provincial transfer envoy?" No way! ”

With a gloomy face, the eldest grandson Wuji refused to be accommodating at all, patted the table majestically and stood up, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty is famous, nothing is impossible?" Now that the war is tight, as the king of Tang Shuo, of course, you have to start from the overall situation, this Hebei transfer envoy, you must be appropriate, and you must be appropriate, otherwise the old man will tie you up! ”

"Really?"

With a dead face, the eldest grandson Wuji snorted coldly, and looked at him a few times in a daze, Li Jie suddenly screamed, and fell to the ground holding his chest, especially a large white foam flowed from the corner of his mouth, and the frightened eldest grandson Zhi exclaimed in surprise, and hurriedly hugged Li Jie in fright.

"Your Highness!"

The eldest grandson Wuji was also taken aback, and hurriedly followed over, pinching Li Jie Renzhong and not letting go, and at the same time turned his head and shouted anxiously: "Come on, pass on Langzhong!" ”

However, at this time, Li Jie suddenly "woke up faintly", and weakly raised his hand to the eldest grandson and said: "Luo'er, you are seriously ill, and the war can't be taken care of, let's go back to the Central Plains!" ”

"Okay, okay, Luo'er listens to you." There were still tears in the corners of his eyes, and the eldest grandson Zhi dotted his little brain like a chicken pecking rice, but the eldest grandson Wuji withdrew his hand speechlessly, paced back to his seat with a blue face, patted the table and shouted: "Do you think Your Majesty will believe that you are pretending to be sick?" ”

"It doesn't matter if Your Majesty believes it or not, anyway, this king is sick, and the King of Liao is so talented, let's let him be the one who is responsible for this person, anyway, I don't want any Andong to protect the mansion." As soon as he got up, he leaned on the stunned eldest grandson weaving's arms, Li Jie had a demeanor that I am a scoundrel and who am I afraid of, and the eldest grandson Wuji covered his head with a headache again.

"King Shuo, the old man taught you to be meritorious before, so the old man will teach you one more now, the so-called politics, there is no absolute one, no matter when, what is important is that you advance and I retreat, and strive to achieve a balance!"

"So!" Patting the table, the eldest grandson Wuji yelled angrily: "How can I be the Hebei Provincial transfer envoy, and what are the conditions, let's talk about it together!" ”。
