Chapter 15: The Pillar of the Town (Final)

Medina, Li Changguo's marshal's mansion.

Li Changguo, Li Mi, Du Fu, Gao Shi, and Cen Shen were so busy that their eyes were red, redder than rabbit eyes.

"Dashuai, your eyes are so red, what are you doing in your eyes?" Li Yu stretched his waist, rubbed his sore eyes, and joked at Li Changguo.

"You say me, what about you? Look at Li Mi's red eyes, are you blushing which unrestrained and beautiful woman eats a lot? Li Changguo smiled on his face and sneered at each other.

"Huh!" Du Fu and the others laughed loudly, very happy.

"It's really tiring." Li Changguo rubbed his eyes, pinched his hands, and sighed: "I felt tired when I was fighting, I thought that I could rest after the battle, and I didn't need to be tired anymore." Where to think of it, it's more tiring after the fight. ”

"yes!" Du Fu echoed loudly and said: "After all, the land of this big food is too wide, we have destroyed the big food and got so much land, there are naturally a lot of government affairs, we can't do it if we are not busy or tired." ”

"We haven't moved here for half a month, and we've slept for less than ten hours in half a month." Gao Shi was also emotional.

It is right that the Arab Empire was extremely vast and not under the Tang Dynasty. Li Changguo and they destroyed the big food, and the land they got was very large, and there must be a lot of government affairs in this place, so busy that they didn't even have the time to breathe, and they all boiled into red eyes, and it was only a small part of everything they handled.

If the government affairs are not handled, it will not work, and it will be fought down for governance. Only when it is well governed, can the Middle East become the land of the Tang Dynasty and be integrated with China. That kind of fight is the practice of nomads, not what the Tang Dynasty wants, Li Changguo and they can only work tirelessly.

"Also, our battle is to scare the courage of the aliens. They were terrified, and sent men to submit to them, and they were in the way. Cen Shen gave a thumbs up. Da is admired, and said: "It's still handsome and thoughtful." We killed it like this. The millions of people are gone, do they dare not break their guts? ”

The battle of Medina showed the terrible combat power of the Tang army, millions of people were slaughtered in a day and a night, and the Middle East region was so frightened that they did not dare to come out, and the people who originally had different intentions no longer dared to have the slightest disagreement, and were busy sending people to submit to obedience, without any conditions, everything was only the order of the Tang Dynasty to listen.

This is what Li Changguo needs, if he doesn't kill. Li Changguo will not kill millions of people in a day and a night, just to kill them.

It can be expected that the deterrent power of this war will be enough to keep the Middle East stable for decades or even hundreds of years.

"Marshal, let's send troops!" It's being discussed. I saw Guo Ziyi, Li Guangbi and the generals walking in quickly, with an angry look on their faces, and scolded from afar: "These despicable Romans, they dare to take advantage of the fire to rob, if it weren't for the fact that we slaughtered millions of people and scared them." They will definitely come to grab food. ”

Guo Ziyi handed a military report to Li Changguo, and Li Changguo took it and saw that it was a letter of state repaired by the Eastern Roman Empire. In the letter of state, the emperor of the Eastern Roman Empire was low in stature and was willing to make an alliance with the Tang Dynasty.

Li Changguo handed the letter to Li Mi and read it, and asked, "What do you think should be done?" ”

"Hit!" The generals said in unison.

"It's all up to the commander." Li Mi, they only look forward to Li Changguo.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I can understand your thoughts, the Romans wanted to take advantage of the fire to loot, but they frightened us, so they had to send an envoy to repair and ask for an alliance. Send troops and teach the Romans a hard lesson, as it should be. Li Changguo groaned: "But, have you thought about it? At present, the land we occupy is extremely wide, from Tiaozhihai in the west to Shiguo in the east, such a vast land is even larger than that of the Tang Dynasty. If we send troops against the Romans and destroy the Romans now, we will occupy a much wider land. You say, with our current strength, can we govern it well? ”…,

The Tang army's westward expedition this time, the territory occupied was much larger than the territory of the Tang Dynasty, much vast, and the governance alone was enough for the Tang Dynasty to digest for a long time, and it was time to stop the conquest and govern and digest it well.

"However, the Romans think so badly, if they don't levy it......" Guo Ziyi was also angry.

"I mean, the Romans can put this on hold, and it's not too late for us to attack the Romans after we have managed the land we possess. As for punishing them, it will cost them more. "Li Changguo has already made a decision.

"I'm for it." Li Mi took the lead in echoing and said: "What the marshal said is extremely reasonable, it is not enough to fight it alone, and it must be managed well." We can't learn from the big food, the big food only cares about fighting, and there is no governance, which is an important reason for their downfall. After governing first, it is not too late to deal with the Romans. ”

What Li Changguo said was absolutely reasonable, and although the generals were not angry, they had to admit that this matter had to be stopped.

After the generals left, Gao Xianzhi came in and said, "Dashuai, I have something to tell you." He flashed his eyes at Li Changguo.

Li Changguo took Gao Xianzhi to a room, closed the door, and asked, "Father-in-law, what do you have to say?" ”

"Li Changguo, I am your father-in-law, can you tell me the truth, is it really because we occupy too much land because we don't send troops to Rome?" Gao Xianzhi frowned.

"Father-in-law, let's be honest, the land we occupy is too extensive, and this is only one of them." Li Changguo nodded heavily and said, "The real reason is that because I want to protect myself, I can't make meritorious contributions anymore." ”

"Oh!" Gao Xianzhi suddenly smiled and said, "Virtuous son-in-law, you are still thoughtful. You have made immortal achievements at a young age, and if you make meritorious contributions again, something will definitely happen. Although Your Majesty trusts you, and the Crown Prince trusts you, your credit is too great, and Your Majesty is difficult to deal with. Well, if you don't fight Rome and give the credit of Rome to someone else, there will be no such thing. Okay, this time, I will go back to Chang'an with you, disarm and return to the field, so that you will be more secure. ”

Li Changguo's credit is great, and with Gao Xianzhi's words, this is a great threat to the Tang Dynasty. Gao Xianzhi will be relieved of his military power and his military power, and Li Changguo's position will be more secure, but this is too unfair to him. Li Changguo had tears in his eyes, and before he could speak, Gao Xianzhi was able to stop him, and said: "Li Changguo, you will give birth to me ruthlessly, give birth to a few more grandchildren, and I will make my grandson happy." You kid. Don't tell me, you can't give birth? His right hand slapped heavily on Li Changguo's shoulder, and he smiled very happily.

"There is a son-in-law. What a pity to get back married! Gao Xianzhi's eyes narrowed.

The next time was to deal with political affairs, and after three months of hard work, it was only after a period of hard work. Half a year later, it basically stabilized. It wasn't until a year later that the Middle East government was barely fully erected.

Li Changguo decided to return to Chang'an, he handed over the military power to Guo Ziyi, and let Li Guangbi be Guo Ziyi's deputy, with the talents of the two, which is absolutely reassuring.

Then, Li Changguo said goodbye to the generals and returned to Chang'an with his goods. This time I returned, and I carried a lot of goods. It is shocking, with nearly 20,000 cars, stretching for thousands of miles, like a long dragon, heading towards the east.

After an arduous trek. Li Changguo and Gao Xianzhi finally returned to Chang'an.

As soon as they returned to Chang'an, Li Changguo and Gao Xianzhi were stunned, their eyes were round, and their faces were in disbelief.

"Is this still Chang'an?"

"Is this Chang'an?"

Li Changguo and Gao Xianzhi glanced at each other and rushed out.

Chang'an has changed, it has become bigger. Much bigger than when they set out. That's not all, countless craftsmen and people are busy, and they are still expanding Chang'an.

"Of course it's Chang'an." I saw the crown prince Li Heng coming with a big smile, walked over quickly, stopped Li Changguo to salute, and punched Li Changguo on the shoulder, smiling so hard that his eyes narrowed together: "It's all your kid who tossed it, it's all you tossed." ”…,

Holding Li Changguo's hand, he shouted as if offering a treasure: "Look, you have brought so many people and so many goods from Dashi, and you can't install them for a long time, so you have to expand, you can't expand if you don't expand!" ”

He shouted loudly, but it caused a burst of laughter, from the mouth of the ministers.

"Li Changguo, how many treasures did you bring with you this time?" Li Heng's eyes were fixed on Li Changguo.

"Not much, almost 20,000 cars." Li Changguo replied in a down-to-earth manner.

"Goo!" The crown prince Li Heng fell to the ground and screamed: "20,000 cars? Not much? You want to scare me to death? Chang'an is not enough, and it has to be expanded. ”

"Your Highness, this is only a part of it, other treasures have arrived one after another, no less than 100,000 cars. Since then, treasures have arrived every year in the Land of Great Food. Li Changguo spoke again in surprise.

"100,000 cars? Oh my God, Chang'an can't fit it even if it expands several times! A scream rang out, coming from the mouths of the ministers.

When Li Changguo saw Li Longji, he saw Li Longji with black hair and high spirits, as if he was twenty years younger.

"What's wrong? Don't know me? Li Longji laughed as Maitreya Buddha: "I've become younger, haven't I?" It's all thanks to you. If you hadn't fought so well, destroyed the Great Food, and avenged the century-old revenge of the Tang Dynasty, would I be in such a good mood? If I'm in a good mood, I'm naturally young! ”

The war actually has the effect of rejuvenating people, Li Changguo really couldn't imagine it, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

After the grand celebration banquet, Li Longji was promoted to reward Li Changguo, and the title was only promoted by two levels, and he barely entered the title of Zhengsanpin, which surprised the ministers.

With Li Changguo's great achievements, it is not a problem to be crowned a first-class lord of Li Changguo, where is Li Longji singing?

Li Changguo and Gao Xianzhi understood that Li Longji was deliberately pressing Li Changguo's title, intending to protect him, because Li Changguo was still young and had a long time, as long as the time was ripe, he would be promoted to his title.

Next, Li Longji's move was surprising, he removed Chen Xuanli from the post of General Longwu and let Li Changguo take over.

General Long Wu's position is not very high, but it is extremely important, because this is putting his life in the hands of Li Changguo. Only those who are particularly trusted will be appointed, and Chen Xuanli's decades of mastering the Dragon Martial Army is the best illustration.

Li Longji disposed of it like this, that is, he regarded Li Changguo as the pillar of the town!

In addition, three years later, Li Bai returned from India, because of the extremely successful governance of India, his extraordinary political skills were recognized, Li Longji dismissed Li Linfu as prime minister, and appointed Li Bai as prime minister.

Since then, there has been no Anshi Rebellion, and the Tang Dynasty has prospered more than ever!
