Li Shimin swept away the doubts in his heart, walked out of the Weiguo Mansion and got on the royal sedan chair. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Li Jing did not preach little by little like a teacher, but pointed to the crux of the problem in one sentence.

"What will happen if Datang loses?"

Li Jing's question made Li Shimin feel empowered.

It's not that he can't see through, but he is in the middle of the game and has fallen into his own obstacle. He never thought that Datang would lose, and naturally he would not think about what would happen if he was defeated. Now that Li Jing asked like this, his thoughts also turned.

What happens if Datang loses?

Will it collapse and perish?

Obviously not, with Datang's current strength, even if it loses and suffers heavy losses, it is not enough to shake the foundation of Datang. Just like a dense forest, it will not be destroyed by insects on individual trees.

There is no eternal victorious general in the world, and even he has been defeated even if he thinks highly of himself. If you lose or lose, you just have to win back, what is there to be afraid of?

What's more, Duhe may not necessarily be defeated. He has real talent and learning, but what he lacks is experience. Experience is not innate, practice more, fight a few more battles, you will master it.

Li Shimin didn't dare to use Du He because he was worried that Du He was too young and inexperienced, and he might lose. Now that I see it, I naturally have no worries and have determined the commander in my heart.

He returned to the palace in the royal carriage, and wanted to go directly to the Lizheng Hall to rest, and come back tomorrow to announce the expedition, but on the way, he learned that Du He had asked to see him, and he had been waiting for a long time.

Li Shimin's eyes rolled, and he smiled: "This kid is really anxious enough...... "He said to the guards: "Let him go to the Lizheng Palace, and say that I will see him there." ”

When Du He got the news, he was a little dazed, the Lizheng Hall was the residence of Empress Changsun. Because he is Changle's husband and the son-in-law of Li Shimin and Empress Changsun, he doesn't need to avoid suspicion, and often goes to the Lizheng Palace to greet him, but the Lizheng Palace belongs to the harem, not a place to discuss state affairs, Li Shimin asked him to go to the Lizheng Palace I don't know what his intentions are.

He shook his head, didn't think much about it, and walked straight to the Lizheng Palace.

Coming to the Lizheng Palace, Li Shimin chatted with the eldest grandson queen happily.

After Du He's salute, Empress Eldest Sun left with a mysterious smile, as if she did not intend to hinder them from discussing things.

Li Shimin looked relaxed and did not have any confusion at all.

Du He couldn't help but wonder: "Could it be that my father-in-law already has a candidate...... he didn't want to ask directly, but he just said tentatively: "Father-in-law, what do you think of Tubo's arrogance?" ”

Li Shimin snorted coldly and said: "I will destroy the ......" This is the big truth, and then he said again: "However, Li Shangshu is sick in bed, and the king of Jiangxia is far away in Goguryeo, so he can only let them go for the time being." When Li Shangshu recovers from his illness, it will be the day I send out the army. ”

Du He was a little dumbfounded, he didn't expect Li Shimin to have this intention, and took a step forward anxiously and said: "When will it be, father-in-law, you were also a general who was good at using soldiers, you should know that the fighter plane will not come again, and you will lose all the games if you make a mistake." Tubo is far away on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and the terrain is very different from ours in the Central Plains, so it is not easy to attack from the bottom up. Once they hold the fortress and we attack it, we will be able to win, and we will pay several times the price. Now that the Xiangxiong Kingdom has not been destroyed, we can just echo them from afar, attacking from both sides, so that the Tubo can take care of the front, not the back, and the back, but they can't take care of the front, so that they lose the advantage of geographical advantage. Li Shangshu is suffering from fatigue and needs to rest well, even if his body recovers, it is impossible to have the energy and physical strength to go to the plateau in a short period of time and suffer from the plateau climate. The strength of the Xiangxiong State is not as good as that of Tibet, and the good generals are much inferior, and it is extremely rare to be able to persist to this day. If it drags on like this, once the Xiangxiong Kingdom is destroyed, if you want to swallow Tubo, you will have to waste ten times your strength. ”

He persuaded bitterly.

These words are all facts, the existence of Xiangxiong is a thorn in the back for Tubo, which can bind Tubo's hands and feet, so that they can't let go of their hands to fight against the Tang Dynasty, which is of great significance. It was because of this that Li Shimin enthusiastically interacted with Zhangxiong.

Li Shimin said helplessly: "You really don't understand this truth, but what if you understand?" There is no handsome in his hand, can he send a Zhao Kuo to be the commander of the three armies? It's not that I don't want to fight, but among the generals who can fight now, none of them have the ability to lead the three armies. ”

Du He was a little displeased, and complained: "My father-in-law also underestimates us too much, what is called incompetence...... The son-in-law doesn't believe it, what's so difficult about leading the three armies, as long as the father-in-law nods, the son-in-law is willing to be the commander of the three armies and lead the troops to the south. The more he spoke, the louder he became, with a resolute expression of determination.

Li Shimin shook his head and said: "You can't do it, you are too young, too inexperienced, and there is not much hope of victory." ”

Du He let Li Shimin pour cold water, not angry but secretly happy. He is not Zhang Fei, who made Zhuge Liang jump up as soon as he was agitated. He knew very well that his father-in-law was very measured in the world, if he really didn't want him to fight, he could casually find a reasonable excuse and reason that people had nothing to say, how could this kind of ridicule be.

This is a radical general, since it is a radical general, it means that Li Shimin has already had the heart to think that he is handsome, and immediately pretended to be a plan, and he was angry and said like thunder: "My father-in-law is too underestimated by my son-in-law, and my son-in-law is willing to make a military order, not to destroy Tibet, and to swear not to return to the dynasty." ”

Li Shimin smiled abruptly and said, "You kid, you want to get beautiful ...... While dreaming. ”

"Ah......" Du He originally felt that since he was a radical general, as long as he looked like Zhang Fei was in the middle of the plan, and set up a military order, it would be over...... He found that he couldn't play anymore.

This is also Du He's underestimation of Li Shimin.

Zhuge Liang's agitation will try all things, that is because Zhuge Liang knows Zhang Fei's temperament well. Li Shimin also knows Du He's temperament, and where would he be provoked as Zhang Fei.

Besides, the military order seems serious, but it is just a situation. The battlefield is changing rapidly, if Du He really fails, how can he really be dealt with by military law?

Du He Tianzong is a genius, because of a failure, he killed him, who will be responsible for the loss.

At least Li Shimin was reluctant.

Therefore, any military order is empty in Li Shimin's eyes, he will not kill Du He because of the military order, and he will not care about any military order.

He looked at Du He, who was stunned, with a smile, and said, "That's it, since you have a heart, I will also give you a chance." Tomorrow, I will order you to be the 'Grand Commander of the Marching Army of the Rasha Road', and lead the three armies to the south. But you also swear to me, if you fail, I don't want your head here, you just wear a girl's clothes and dance for me......" Saying this, Li Shimin himself couldn't help laughing.

The method of agitation lies in motivating the heart.

Li Shimin's hand seems absurd, but it hits the heart of Du He.

Du He is a person who understands, Li Shimin loves talents and cherishes talents, and can be ranked in thousands of years of history. He never thought about failure, but he clearly knew that even if he was defeated, Li Shimin would not be able to kill himself, and the military order was just a situation. For him, the threat is not so great.

But dancing in girl's clothes......

It's not a head killing, it's much more serious than a head killing......

Thinking of this failed ending, Du He felt a cool breath rising from the bottom of his feet into his back, and couldn't help but shiver, and he really didn't dare to accept it for a while. Then he gritted his teeth, as long as he won, he gritted his teeth and said: "Swear and swear, even if the son-in-law breaks a good tooth, he will gnaw off Tubo." Flames erupted in his eyes, and his will to win was unconcealed in front of Li Shimin.

Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction.

His purpose was clearly achieved.

**********

Welcome Building, the largest private room, is sitting alone at the moment in a room that can accommodate more than 20 people for dinner, gulping wine.

It was the eldest grandson Shunde who left the Zhao State Mansion.

If someone who knows the eldest grandson Shunde is in this private room, he will definitely look away and not recognize the person in front of him.

The eldest grandson Shunde is a drunk man at the moment, with a cloak and messy clothes, and there are three empty wine jugs arranged around him, and he still holds one jar in his hand, and the fragrance of wine is overflowing.

This is not an ordinary wine, but a mid-mountain winter brew. Most of the liquor in the Central Plains is mellow and sweet, mainly based on taste, such as Du Kang wine, pear blossom wine, Jimo old wine, Fen wine, etc., all of which belong to light wine and are not strong. The exception is Zhongshan Dongjiu, which has an alias called Qianri Drunk, which is a famous wine in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. Located in the land of Yanzhao in the north, it is Yanzhao Haojie's favorite cup of things, and its strength is far better than that of grassland mare's milk wine.

People who are good at drinking, it is difficult to bear to drink three jars, and the eldest grandson Shunde is also good in the cup, but he usually drinks light wine, and today it is purely to use wine to kill his sorrows, and he ordered Zhongshan Winter Brew. He has little contact with spirits, and he is already drunk and staggering, and he can't recognize the southeast and northwest.

The eldest grandson Shunde was aggrieved and held his breath. He is also a minister from the dragon, worshipping General Zuo Xiaowei, but compared to the nephew of the eldest grandson Wuji, he is inconspicuous. As the head of the eldest grandson's family, in order to maintain his status, the eldest grandson Wuji is also upright and selfless, and the eldest grandson Shunde's private life is disorderly, and he is not less interfered with.

For these, the eldest grandson Shunde admitted and endured it, he knew that the eldest grandson Wuji had the ability. But after all, he is an elder, he watched the eldest grandson Wuji grow up, and he gave the eldest grandson Wuji and urine. Today, the eldest grandson Wuji scolded him for being brainless in front of him, and even scolded him angrily, making him, an elder, lose face and humiliate his dignity. He doesn't even dare to go home now. In the eldest grandson's family, the eldest grandson Wuji has absolute authority, even if it is his son and wife, he will not help him speak, so he can only hide in the restaurant alone, drinking stuffy wine.

Drinking and drinking, his consciousness was blurred, and he muttered unconsciously: "Eldest grandson Wuji, you little cub, in your eyes, am I an uncle or a son...... Train me as a son...... Du He, bastard, wait, you have the ability to win the commander of the three armies, I have the ability, let you be defeated...... "Jili quack, what should be said and what should not be said is involuntarily said.
