After Li Shimin pondered for a while, he asked, "King Yong'an, do you still think that Li Jing did not rebel?" ”

Li Xuan replied: "The previous minister thought that Li Jing did not rebel, and he was only sixty percent sure. But after His Majesty asked the minister to watch the first piece of the story, the minister was ninety percent sure that Li Jing did not rebel. ”

After thinking about it, the ministers also echoed Li Xuan's idea.

Li Shimin also nodded slowly, but still asked suspiciously: "Then how does King Yong'an think that now how to solve the matter of Li Jing commanding the 400,000 Northern Expeditionary Army threatening my Tang Jiangshan Sheji?" ”

Li Xuan replied: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the reason why Li Jing has become a threat is because he commands almost all the mobile armies of my Tang Dynasty, all the elites, and controls the entire 400,000 army, so the minister thinks that as long as Li Jing can lead the 400,000 Northern Expedition army to return to Chang'an City, the capital of our Tang Dynasty, and the 400,000 Northern Expedition army returns to the control of His Majesty and the imperial court, then Li Jing alone will not have such a huge threat to my Tang Dynasty Jiangshan Sheji as he is now." ”

Li Shimin asked: "King Yong'an, or let me send an edict to summon Li Jing and the 400,000 Northern Expedition army under his command to return to Chang'an City, the capital of the Tang Dynasty?" Li Jing, who has become a frightened bird, will he be edicted? ”

Li Xuan said: "Your Majesty, the reason why Li Jing did not dare to return to Chang'an City, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, was because His Majesty had been deeply jealous of him for a long time, and he was afraid that after he returned to Chang'an City, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, he would die unjustly, and his family would be wiped out, and everyone would be affected. ”

Li Shimin said: "Isn't that that he still doesn't believe in me, and he still doesn't want to come back?" If he doesn't come back, won't he and the 400,000 Northern Expeditionary Army of my Datang still be a huge threat to my Datang? ”

Li Xuan replied: "The minister thinks that it is because Your Majesty, the imperial court, and Li Jing have no trust that the current crisis will arise." As long as there is trust between His Majesty, the imperial court and Li Jing, this crisis can be resolved, Li Jing can return to Chang'an City, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, with peace of mind, and the 400,000 Northern Expeditionary Army of the Tang Dynasty can return to the control of His Majesty and the imperial court. ”

Li Shimin said happily: "King Yong'an, then you quickly tell me what your method is?" How can I let Li Jing return to Chang'an City, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, with peace of mind. Let the 400,000 Northern Expeditionary Army of the Tang Dynasty return to the control of the Imperial Court? ”

After Li Xuan pondered for a while, he replied: "The minister can be a hostage, first go to Li Jing's Northern Expeditionary Army camp, and then, Li Jing has a hostage in his hands, and he will return to Chang'an City, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, safely......"

"No, you can't." Li Shimin suddenly interrupted Li Xuan and said: "Now that Li Jing is rebelling, the situation is still unclear, I will never allow it, you, my right-hand man and minister of the humerus (gong), are alone and dangerous." Now Li Ji and Su Dingfang have pledged their allegiance to me. Publicly denounced Li Jing's treason, I brought millions of people from the Tang Dynasty and hundreds of thousands of soldiers loyal to my Tang Dynasty to quell the rebellion, and Li Jing could not win. I'd rather spend some time and effort to exterminate Li Jing than allow you to lose. ”

Li Xuan stood up and knelt on the ground, his eyes were red and he said to Li Shimin, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty: "Your Majesty, the minister is grateful for Your Majesty's care. But Your Majesty. It is not easy for Datang to get to this point, Datang has just defeated the powerful Turks in the north, and has the strength and potential to establish a hegemonic position among the surrounding countries, once my Tang court and the 400,000 Northern Expeditionary army led by Li Jing start a war. Caught in a civil war, then my Datang has killed and injured tens of thousands of people, and the good situation that I have worked so hard to build will be destroyed. I will lose my position as the hegemon of all countries. Xue Yantuo's Zhenzhu Khan Yi male wolf ambition, with ill-intentioned (po) intentions, once the Tang Dynasty fell into a civil war. gave Xue Yantuo a chance to develop, and when the civil war in my Datang is over, I am afraid that Xue Yantuo will be like the previous Turks, like a mountain, hanging above the heads of all my Datang people, posing a mortal threat to my Datang. During the Warring States Period, the examples of King Qi Wei and Tian Ji, I can't help but learn from the Tang Dynasty, and Your Majesty can't help but learn from them. ”

In the early years of the Warring States Period, the overlord of the world was the Wei State, and the Wei State went through the hard work of the two generations of monarchs of Wei Wenhou and Wei Wuhou, and when it came to the time of King Wei Hui, the country reached its strongest. King Qi Wei, the monarch of Qi State, a generation of male lords, has the intention to take Wei and replace it, so that Qi State becomes the overlord of the world, more than ten years of hard work, the talent Zou Ji is the phase, the royal family Tian Ji is the general, the art of war Sun Bin is the military advisor, and the national strength is thriving. More than ten years later, the uncle of the prime minister of Wei died of acne, and Pang Juan acted recklessly, in a vain attempt to unify all countries and establish a great cause, and all countries depended on Qi to rely on.

Soon, King Qi Wei decided to take the opportunity to win the hegemony of the world for the Qi State, and appointed Tian Ji as a general, Sun Bin as a military division, commanding 300,000 troops, and Wei to compete for power, after Tian Ji and Sun Bin worked together, the Qi army successively won a decisive victory in Guiling and Maling, and the Wei general Pang Juan committed suicide in defeat, and the 400,000 elites of Wei were lost.

Originally, this was the best opportunity for Qi to become the overlord of the world in one fell swoop, King Qi Wei was afraid of Tian Ji's military exploits and prestige from the same royal family, and he united with Zou Ji to crowd out Tian Ji together, which eventually led to Tian Ji having to flee Qi and live in seclusion in Chu, and Tian Ji's best friend Sun Bin was also embarrassed by Tian Ji's ending, disheartened, and soon drifted away and left Qi.

Tian Ji and Sun Bin left one after another, resulting in the Qi army, the military spirit was turbulent, the combat power was greatly reduced, and then several wars with the surrounding countries, it was defeated repeatedly, and the army was defeated many times, and the best opportunity for the Qi State to become the overlord of the world was also missed, resulting in the rise of the western power Qin State, and finally let the Qin State dominate the world.

The exclusion of Tian Ji has also become the biggest regret and remorse in King Qi Wei's life.

Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty, and his ministers were also shocked, they knew that the current situation in the Tang Dynasty was like the Qi State that had just won the battles of Guiling and Maling, which not only had the potential to become the hegemon of the world, but also had the famous generals and armies that were enough to deter the Quartet. If His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty insists on going to war with the 400,000 Northern Expeditionary Army led by Li Jing, then it will inevitably be a catastrophe for the Tang Dynasty, and it will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Xue Yantuo tribe with ill intentions in the north of the Tang Dynasty. If this battle is really fought, I am afraid that in the future, the remorse of the Tang Emperor Li Shimin and the Tang Dynasty will be much deeper than that of King Qi Wei. King Qi Wei just missed the best opportunity to dominate the world, but Datang not only missed the best opportunity to dominate the world, but also possibly brought the entire Datang into a situation of no return, and completely became a vassal of the Xue Yantuo tribe that had risen and became powerful by then.
