Chapter 675: Attacking the Plains and Attacking the Grasslands

Li Xian didn't pretend to be a corporal of Lixian, and Liu Hongji didn't pretend to be any loyal ministers and martyrs, saying that it was a little too much to hit it off, but this conversation was actually not complicated and difficult. Liu Hongji needed a step down, so Li Xian gave him one. Liu Hongji needed a step to enter, and Li Xian gave him another one.

It's all about what you need, simple and straightforward.

The only thing that made Liu Hongji feel a little uncomfortable was that after the conversation was over, he found out that the general of the dignified Yanyun Army's heavily armored Mo Dao Battalion must be the majestic sea who wanted to be promoted to the title of the Duke of the Kingdom, and he actually took a branch that he didn't know where to find it, barefoot, rolled up his pants and went to the small pool, only for a while, the koi in the kung fu pool were poked to death by him, each of which was four or five pounds heavy, and the wild koi grew so big I don't know how many years, the previous owner of this house may have put a lot of thought into it, But he was poked to death by such a rough and rough sea as the mighty sea.

A person with such a status actually has such a childlike playfulness, which makes Liu Hongji a little entangled.

"Lord, this carp is obviously wild-raised, fat and oily!"

Xiong Kuanhai carried a bloody fish and shouted at Li Xian.

Li Xian glanced at Xiong Kuohai and then said slightly angrily: "Tyrannical Heavenly Things!" ”

The majestic sea was stunned, and Liu Hongji was stunned.

Liu Hongji is still the king of Yan knows the goods, so the pale golden koi fish are taken out and sold, a live fish is worth a tael of gold, if you meet someone who loves this thing, it is not a problem to sell it higher. The most important thing is that koi fish ornamentation and pond games are all about elegance, but the majestic sea is actually poked to death with a broken branch, and it is indeed a tyrannical thing.

It's just that Li Xian's next sentence made Liu Hongji even more stunned.

Li Xian walked quickly to Xiong Kuohai's side, looked at the koi fish in his hand, and then couldn't help but count: "It's rotten like this, how can you eat it?" ”

Xiong Kuohai lowered his head like a child who had done something wrong, and seeing this scene, Liu Hongji couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth a few times.

Before leaving Liu Hongji's house, Li Xian took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms and threw it to him and said lightly: "This is a scald medicine made by the Second Military Inspection and Guard Department, the wound on your face is almost healed, but using this thing may be able to ensure that your face does not change color, and the appearance after burning will not look good after all, or it will be useful to you." ”

Loving beauty is a woman's nature, but it is definitely not a woman's patent, Liu Hong is basically a person with good manners and good appearance, in case this face is spent, he is also extremely uncomfortable when he thinks about it.

Taking the medicine bottle thrown by Li Xian, Liu Hongji solemnly saluted: "Thank you Your Highness for the medicine." ”

He was holding the porcelain bottle, his tentacles were slightly cold, but he didn't know what's wrong, it was this small bottle of burn medicine that made his heart warm a lot.

Li Xian smiled and walked out of the courtyard gate, and went back to the residence without staying long. Now that he has a special status, he naturally will not go to live in the Qi Palace. The new emperor Li Chengde originally begged Li Xian to live in the Taiji Palace, but Li Xian did not agree. There is still enough to do in terms of face, even if everyone knows that Li Chengde is just a puppet, but there must be at least respect for this emperor, even if this respect is really too fake.

He lived in the Tiance General's Mansion, which was the Yamen of the original military garrison in Chang'an City.

When he returned to the Tiance General's Mansion, Zhang Gongjin, the new secretary of the military department, was already waiting for him here. Li Xian got out of the carriage and saw Zhang Gongjin standing respectfully at the door to greet him, bowed his head slightly, and then walked into the courtyard. The Yamen of the Military Reserve Mansion occupies a huge area, and it is not a little smaller than Miyagi. At most, there were 30,000 soldiers stationed in the yamen of the military garrison government, which shows that this yamen occupies a wide area.

Walking all the way down the road to the study, Zhang Gongjin followed behind with a humble attitude and a solemn face.

"The minister sent someone to count the inventory of the military department overnight, and then went to the household department and the household department squire Fang Xuanling to check the household treasury. The military department has enough armor, weapons, and clothing to equip the needs of 200,000 troops, and the money and food of the household department are not a problem. Moreover, Xingluocang is in the hands of the Tang Dynasty, although it is used in times of war, but there are at least 15 million stones of grain in Xingluocang, 3,000 cellars, and 8,000 stones of grain in each cellar, most of which are still full, enough for the imperial court to use soldiers. ”

"When I turn around on this matter, I will let Liu Hongji go to you, and you can give him all the money you need to send troops."

Li Xian sat down on the chair, thought about it and then ordered: "There is still a famine in the vicinity of Chang'an for hundreds of miles, so naturally we need disaster relief, at least the victims need two meals a day, and the need is very great. The location of the important land in the east of the river is extremely important, and the people especially cannot be chaotic, so they must also allocate food to the past. The lonely will mobilize the water master to transport grain, the affairs of the people are no trivial matter, when you go back, let Fang Xuanling be more careful, and do not miss it. ”

"Obey."

Zhang Gongjin nodded.

He used the word obedience, which was obviously a bit of an overstep.

"Don't test anything in front of Lonely, and don't play tricks on your cleverness."

Li Xian glanced at him and said in a flat tone: "The emperor is in the Taiji Palace of Chang'an City, if you want to obey the order, you can go to the palace." If your mind is on this, how can Lone use you with confidence? ”

Zhang Gongjin blushed and lowered his head in disdain.

……

……

"Hexi, Guanlong Counties, these places are all important."

Li Xian didn't want to dwell on the topic just now, so after taking a sip of tea, he continued: "You are the secretary of the military department, so you can propose a few candidates for Lone." There are at least 100,000 horses in Taiyuan County, and the Guanlong Counties should not be underestimated...... Who can go, and who can make a contribution if they go? ”

"I think it's ......"

Zhang Gong thought for a while and said: "The family of Guanlong Counties, the generals of the Taiyuan garrison, should not suppress these people now, but appease them. Therefore, it is not advisable to send generals to lead the army, so as not to provoke unnecessary trouble. Especially those families in Guanlong Prefectures are waiting and seeing. If the pressure is too hard, it is not conducive to the stability of the DPRK situation. ”

"That's a good point."

Li Xian nodded and said, "Who can make it to stabilize the northwest for Gu?" ”

"It must be one or two important ministers of the court."

Zhang Gongjin pondered for a while and said, "Guanlong Prefecture, please ask Lord Pei Lin to take a trip." After the Emperor Taishang raised troops from Taiyuan, all the families in Guanlong were contacted by Lord Pei Lian. Invite him to go, and those families will naturally understand your intentions. No matter how much pacification is appeased, it will not be a problem for the Guanlong counties to stabilize. As for Taiyuan County...... In my opinion, the most suitable person ......"

"She can't."

Without waiting for Zhang Gongjin to finish speaking, Li Xian waved his hand and said, "Change someone." ”

Zhang Gong was stunned and sighed in his heart.

"In addition, the minister thinks that the most suitable person is Shangshu's left servant to shoot Xiao Yu."

He glanced at Li Xian, and saw that His Royal Highness King Yan's face was normal, so he continued: "Xiao Yu has the closest relationship with the Heavenly Family, he is considered an imperial prince, and he is high and powerful, which is enough to represent His Royal Highness. But...... There are 100,000 troops in Taiyuan County, and the minister said truthfully, the minister is worried that Xiao Yu will have different intentions. ”

Li Xian didn't speak, just nodded slightly.

Seeing that King Yan did not object to his thoughts, Zhang Gongjin pondered for a while and continued: "This person's attitude is still unclear, and he has been assigned such a heavy task, if he has any dirty thoughts after arriving in Taiyuan, and unites the Taiyuan defenders to have a plan, although it will not shake the foundation of the Tang Dynasty, I am afraid that it will also affect His Highness's use of troops in the Eastern Capital and Hebei." ”

Xiao Yu originally strongly praised the establishment of Li Shimin, the king of Qin, as the crown prince, and now Li Shimin is still in the Jingxiang area, Li Xiaogong is also there, and the combined strength of the two is no less than 100,000. If Xiao Yu rebelled in Taiyuan, echoing Li Shimin, one south and one north, if His Royal Highness wanted to eradicate the trouble, it would be quite difficult to arrange the troops. ”

"Old Cheng is serious."

Li Xian nodded and said, "You go back first to be busy with the affairs of the military department, and as for who to send to Taiyuan, think about it again." ”

"The minister retired."

Zhang Gongjin bowed down and exited the study, thinking of the trace of murderous intent that flashed in King Yan's eyes when he said that person was the most suitable just now, he was still afraid, and the cold sweat on his back was blown by the wind and stuck to his body, which was extremely uncomfortable.

He originally wanted to say that except for Princess Pingyang, there was no one suitable to go to Taiyuan. But Li Xian refused so resolutely that he didn't dare to say anything more.

After Zhang Gongjin left, Li Xian thought of the drunk woman who was drunk on the wall of Xuanwu Gate, sighed slightly, and sighed in his heart, I can't help you with any favors, I already feel guilty, how can I force you to do something else? There's not much I can give you, a quiet and peaceful life, this is what I can do to give you.

……

……

After sitting in the study for a long time, dealing with some rather anxious court affairs, Li Xian sat up straight and stretched his body, got up and walked to the window to open the window, and the evening breeze with a hint of coolness blew in, and he felt a lot more comfortable. There was a thick stack of folds on his desk, and these things had not entered the imperial study of Taiji Palace at all.

He glanced back at the memoranda and frowned slightly, but more than half of the sixty or seventy recitals were reported by officials to each other, which was annoying to watch. These people are still testing his bottom line, which makes Li Xian more or less displeased.

Standing at the window and taking a few breaths of the air outside, I saw Ye Huaisleeve slowly walking into the courtyard with Jia'er. Li Xian picked the corners of his mouth, pushed open the door and walked out.

"The concubine has seen the lord."

Ye Huaisleeve and Jia'er saw Li Xian come out, and smiled and saluted. Li Xian saw that there were no outsiders around, so he immediately smiled and said: "It's good for you to call yourself a minister and a concubine, but it's not good to put them together." ”

Ye Huaisleeve's face turned slightly red, and he didn't take it over on this sentence, but took out a secret letter from his cuff and handed it to Li Xian and said, "The news came from the grassland, and it was sent by Qingqing." Originally, the affairs of the military guards were handed over to Xie Yingdeng, but the line on the grassland was still in my hands, and Qingqing and Huaisu didn't seem to worry about letting others pass on the news, even if few people in the military guards knew the transmission path of this line, Xie Yingdeng didn't know, so I simply didn't tell him. ”

"You can keep this line in mind."

Li Xian took the secret letter and opened it for a few glances, then rubbed his brows and sighed: "These two people have done a lot of great things in the grassland in the past few years, fought a lot of battles, destroyed many tribes, annexed a lot of grasslands, plundered a lot of cattle, sheep, horses and herdsmen, so that their hearts are wild......"

He sighed and said in a somewhat helpless tone: "Even that girl Qingqing is so bold now, she actually wants to lead the army from Youzhou to enter the customs and find Dou Jiande's bad luck." ”

"Good thing!"

Ye Huaisleeve smiled and nodded: "The Khitan cavalry under Qingqing has been fighting repeatedly over the years, and they are all elite, if she enters the customs, it will be much easier to solve Dou Jiande." ”

Li Xian shook his head and said, "But they don't have experience fighting in the Central Plains. ”

"There are many cities in the Central Plains, where can it be compared with the endless grassland, the Central Plains is more fortified, and the grassland is good at field warfare...... Not the same. Just because you have fought a lot of field battles doesn't mean you know how to conquer cities. ”

I don't know what's wrong, when I heard the word field, Ye Huaisleeve and Jia'er's faces turned red at the same time. Then the two of them understood something from each other's eyes, and then their faces turned even redder.

Li Xian was stunned, and when he understood, he smiled wryly: "Go back and take you ...... together."
