"What's the matter, do you want to tell me that you can't? General Li Jing?" Li Chengzong's voice was very gentle, so that he was not in a hurry at all.

"The minister can do it, Your Majesty just rest assured. If the minister fails His Majesty's holy hope, he is willing to die to apologize. Li Jing knelt down again, not reluctant at all. Even though he had mixed feelings in his heart, when was it now, and if he found any reason to talk about what conditions, Li Jing was really crazy.

Li Chengzong nodded and said, "That place in Lingnan is definitely not a place where soldiers must fight, and there are no treasures in it. But that's the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and it's my territory. It's always so nominal and unsettling. Let you go, you don't have to be in a hurry, and you can't be in a hurry. Steady and steady step by step, it is best to let Feng Ang not find anything wrong. ”

Li Jingxin said no! Isn't going to Lingnan to deal with Feng Ang, the Duke of Geng Guo? What do you mean, if you beat someone, they are not allowed to scold you, this is not a difficult problem, it is a problem that cannot be solved at all, he can't do it!

"Your Majesty, Feng Ang of Lingnan will not fight back, and it is even more impossible not to find His Majesty's theory." Li Jing didn't dare to make a big deal about this, and quickly put aside the responsibility of the statement. Knowing that he can't do it, only newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, and Li Jing has long lost that courage.

"You're really dead. You don't have to attack the place where Feng Ang is obviously already in control, I will give you explosives and cannons. You won't blow up the choke point in Lingnan under the pretext of building roads and training troops, leaving only some places under your control, and cutting off the way for him to report first. Let his people come to me if they want to, but they can't find the way?" Li Chengzong said.

"Your Majesty Shengming!" Is this also the idea of the person who became the emperor? First of all, the road to Chang'an is not dead, there are few big roads in Lingnan, and there are many ways to go north to the Central Plains. The worst thing is that you can go over the mountains and mountains, and send out one hundred and eighty people, and there will always be a few to Chang'an. However, Li Jing kept this in his heart, and he didn't want to say it so that Li Chengzong would not be able to come to the stage.

Li Jing's idea is, I will do what you say, in the end, people can't control it, and it's not my fault that people find you. It's your bad idea, you, a dignified emperor, want to find me to carry the black cauldron, and I admit it.

"Also, even if I give you 70,000 troops, you can't use them all on Lingnan."

Li Jing hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, rest assured, whether it is Tubo or those two, the ministers will take strict precautions." Even if they have wings, they can't fly into Songzhou. ”

"I still believe you, and since you say so, I'm relieved. Cui Dunli was sent by me to envoy Feng Ang, and the best situation in the coming year is Feng Ang's entry into Beijing, if the minister directly detains him in Chang'an, you will have less trouble. "Li Chengzong told Li Jing about Cui Dunli, in fact, he wanted to ask Li Jing's opinion. Although Feng Ang has little chance of coming, if he comes, he really didn't think about whether he would detain Li Chengzong.

Why? Feng Ang generation overlord, do you say he is afraid of death? It must be fearful, and no one wants to die. But between death and territory, Feng Ang may not necessarily choose death over territory, and it is good to leave it to his son and grandson. As soon as Feng Ang was detained like this, even if he was not dead, it was impossible for Li Chengzong not to be scolded. Feng Ang's wife and children, so many subordinates, and the people of Lingnan will definitely fight for their lives and share the same enemy.

Li Jing thought for a long time and said: "Feng Ang of Lingnan is a talented person, who led the troops into Lingnan and swept away many thieves and judges."

"Come on, who Feng Ang is, I don't know, I almost know his ancestors for eight generations. Skip over and get straight to the point. Li Chengzong said.

"You can't detain Feng Ang, Your Majesty should treat him with courtesy, and send him away after finishing his work." Li Jing said directly.

Li Chengzong said: "Don't be so direct!" Tell me why, why?"

"First of all, Your Majesty has suspended the pace of dealing with the Turks, but you have to be vigilant against the resurgence of the Turks, if they are desperate to kill, Your Majesty still needs to have soldiers to fight. If Feng Ang is arrested, Lingnan will definitely not sit idly by, and it is inevitable to send troops to counterattack. The 70,000-strong army in Songzhou could not move and could not support other places. The second point is that Tuyuhun has not been destroyed yet, and once the fight starts, it will also involve a lot of troops and material consumption. Tuyuhun is no faster than Lingnan, who wants to eliminate them. When Tuyuhun is destroyed and the soldiers and horses can be withdrawn, it is necessary to do something to Lingnan again. Li Jing said two points, but the meaning was very clear, there were not enough troops to support the chaos, even if it was unlikely to happen.

Li Chengzong said: "Tuyuhun must be the same as the Turks, they will definitely hide after suffering a few losses, and they may not be able to clean them up in a year and a half."

Li Jing replied: "Absolutely not, Tuyuhun is not a little worse than the Turks." Their territory is not big enough, and they can't pull too far if they want to run, and our army can completely catch up, and we are not afraid of the lack of food and grass supply in the rear. Moreover, in Songzhou, the minister could use this time to train soldiers suitable for fighting in the mountains and forests, to understand the dangerous terrain in Lingnan, and to thoroughly understand Feng Ang's military deployment and the situation of soldiers, horses, food, and grass. ”

"It is reasonable, the mountains and forests of Lingnan are vertical and horizontal, and the general large-scale decisive battle is not suitable, and the climate is not like the Central Plains, so it is necessary to adapt to it. However, you only have three years, and I don't want to wait any longer. Three years later, I will fight again against the Turks. Li Chengzong stood up abruptly and said victoriously.

Li Jing hurriedly said: "Your Majesty wants to flatten Guhun in one year, and take Lingnan and Jiannan in three years?"

"Yes, of course. The Turkic civil strife was greatly damaged, and they could not slow down after three years of hard work. ”

"Your Majesty, why don't you take advantage of the chaos in Tubo and the young Tubo Zanpu to do something to Tubo first. Chen has always felt that the threat of Tubo to the Tang Dynasty is greater than that of the Turks, and it is even more harmful. ”

Li Chengzong also understood, but he said: "Tubo is a special place, and he is very tall. Some of our soldiers can't go up at all, and they are either dizzy or weak-footed. If you think about it a little deeper, our people won't be able to go. I don't mean don't, but I don't want to. I want to give him as a gift to others, and divide Tibet into three or four countries, and keep each other at bay. ”

Why not? First, it is really difficult to live in Tibet, not to say that the poor mountains and bad waters, but also a place where people with poor physique should not enter. Second, the population of Datang does not need too many places at all. Third, the troops were not enough, and they could not guarantee enough garrisons, and one day Tubo would turn against it. Third, Li Chengzong wanted to support Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin to become king in Tibet. said that he was soft-hearted, Li Chengzong couldn't kill the two of them like he killed Li Yuanji. Moreover, it is not a bad thing to put these two people in Tibet and stir up the cauldron of Tibet. (To be continued......)
