Chapter 106: Promotion to General
When Luo Shixin walked into the main hall of Taiji, he had a wonderful premonition in his heart.
The main hall of Taiji is the most solemn holy place of the entire Li Tang dynasty, and it is the place where large-scale court meetings are held. The emperor ascended the throne, and most of the ceremonies for the canonization of queens, princes, kings, princesses, and banquets for tributary envoys were held in this hall.
If it was a simple small reward, there was no need for Li Yuan to choose to summon him in the main hall of Tai Chi, and put on such a grand posture, it would not be thunderous and rainy!
With a little excitement, Luo Shixin completed his greeting to Li Yuan.
Li Yuangao sat on the dragon chair, looking at Luo Shixin, and his mood was also extremely happy: Luo Shixin's beautiful two battles completely saved Li Tang's face.
For Li Yuan, Turkic is a great shame, and the pain in his heart cannot be washed away.
Li Yuan raised troops in Taiyuan, but before he could gain a foothold in Taiyuan, the Turks became his confidants, and his vest was thorny. had no choice but to make compromises, make friends with the Turks, and hug the Turkic thighs in exchange for the opportunity to attack Guanzhong.
After entering Guanzhong, Li Yuan faced a chaotic situation, and if he wanted to dominate the world, it was impossible to fight with the Turks, who were far stronger than Li Tang, so he could only compromise again. Under the concerted efforts of Li Shimin, Li Xiaogong and the Manchu Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty completed the great cause of unification. However, as a result of the great turmoil at the end of the Sui Dynasty, the population of the world plummeted by three-quarters, and Li Yuan was faced with the miserable situation of barren villages and towns and no roosters for hundreds of miles. At the beginning of the world, everything was in ruins, and the people were barely able to survive, so how could they have the ability to fight against the Turks.
In this difficult situation, Yang Guang had learned from the fate of forcibly seeking war, so Li Yuan once again chose to bow to the Turks.
As an emperor, as an ambitious emperor, only Li Yuan himself knows how heartwarming it is to make this decision. But he knows better that he has to endure, the heroic style of the Han Dynasty was played by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, but if there was no Emperor Wenjing and his relatives to recuperate for many years, what would Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty use to play the heroic style of the Han Dynasty.
Li Yuan believed that his forbearance would give his descendants a chance to exhale and raise his eyebrows. So if you can't bear it, you have to endure it.
Therefore, Li Yuan has always adopted a policy of seeking peace with the outside world, and if he can, he will not fight. Although Li Jiancheng was appointed to be responsible for the defense of the Turks, he lacked the determination and belief to really use force. As soon as the Turks invaded, all they wanted was to sue for peace, giving money and goods in exchange for a chance to recuperate.
This time, the Turks dispatched 200,000 troops, and Li Yuan also planned to use the old method to force the Turks back with his troops, and then send people to sue for peace.
As a result, Luo Shixin lightly beheaded Jieli's henchman Si Lixie and exterminated 20,000 Turkic soldiers and horses. The other two roads also achieved considerable results and killed nearly 10,000 enemies.
The Turkic army of 200,000 lost 30,000, but Jieli did not dare to fight again, ran away in disgrace and withdrew to the steppe.
Because of the excellent performances of Luo Shixin, Li Shimin, and Li Jiancheng, Li Yuan found that Li Tang did not sue for peace, and the Turks did not send people to ask for money and goods for the retreat.
As a result of this battle, Li Yuan saw another possibility, and found that he had wealth in his hands that Emperor Wenjing did not have, that is, two extremely outstanding sons, as well as generals like Li Jing, Li Shiji, and Luo Shixin, who could fight well, there may be no need to blindly regress.
It can be said that Luo Shixin's two duels that changed history made Li Yuan realize that Li Tang was not as weak as he imagined, and the Turks were not as strong as he imagined.
They can still fight!
Even without that economic expedition, self-preservation is not a big problem.
Li Yuan is not angry, and when he sees the possibility of being able to swallow his anger, he is naturally unwilling to leave a stigma in history. Let an emperor choose between the second emperor of Wenjing and the Han Wu, who will choose the former?
Li Yuan had no negative feelings about Luo Shixin, who made him realize this, except for appreciation, that is, appreciation.
What's more, the man standing in front of him now is still his daughter's life-saving benefactor, if Pingyang hadn't been Luo Shixin's original decision, if it weren't for Luo Shixin's life-saving invitation to Sun Simiao from Goguryeo. Then his baby daughter is afraid that he will let him send the white-haired man to the black-haired man.
Appreciation and appreciation are added to a little gratitude.
This is also the reason why he specially and ceremoniously invited Luo Shixin to the main hall of the Taiji Hall to choose the award and canonization.
Li Yuan watched for a while, and said loudly: "Luo Shixin, come forward and listen to the seal!" ”
Where did Luo Shixin know Li Yuan's thoughts, and he couldn't think much about it at this time, so he stepped forward and said, "The last general will listen to the seal!" ”
"Luo Shixin, the right Xiaowei general of the Shangzhu State of Tan, is wise and brave, and he broke the Turks with his own Mo sword army formation, destroyed the enemy, killed the enemy chieftain, defended my homeland, and raised the prestige of the Tang Dynasty, and the merit was great, the front of a hundred battles, the enemy of Gaiwanfu, and was specially awarded the position of the general of the right Xiaowei, and increased the food by 100 ......"
Luo Shixin was stunned and stunned!
I'm really confused!
When I heard the right Xiaowei general, my head was like a slap in the head, and I didn't hear anything that was said later, and it didn't matter, the important thing was "Right Xiaowei General".
Luo Shixin could think that the reward this time might not be small, firstly because of his military exploits, and secondly, because he saved the life of Princess Pingyang. Although this is not a war feat, but she is also the emperor's daughter, there is no merit and hard work, there is an excellent good impression, and the reward will be a little more.
But he never imagined that he would be awarded the title of General of the Right Xiaowei, which is a position with the title of a general and a position with real military power, the core of Li Tang's military affairs.
In terms of merit alone, with Luo Shixin's merits for Li Tang, it is not enough to serve as a general, but it is still enough. The problem is that it is not enough to have military merits in the position of a general, but also to have qualifications, family background, and status, which requires all kinds of external factors.
Luo Shixin has no family background to rely on, and his qualifications are still shallow, and his age is even more difficult.
The twenty-year-old general, in Li Tangmo, said that Luo Shixin was born in the common people, even if he was from a big family, there was no precedent for this.
Although Luo Shixin thought that he would get a good reward this time, he didn't think that he could be directly promoted to the general of the Right Xiaowei, which was really unexpected by him, and he couldn't help but glance at Li Jiancheng on the side.
Li Jiancheng smiled helplessly, obviously knowing about Li Yuan's appointment.
This is also the reason why he is entangled, Luo Shixin has now gained Li Yuan's trust and has become the general of the Right Xiaowei, so his position is not something that anyone can shake lightly. Even if he is the crown prince, he doesn't just say that he will move in the face of a Twelve Guards General who holds military power. What's more, the current Luo Shixin is very valued by Li Yuan for some reason, how dare Li Jiancheng argue with Li Yuan.
Being in a high position and being respected by the emperor, in other words, it is not surprising that he in turn confronted Luo Shixin. Now if he wants to win over Luo Shixin again, it will naturally take ten times more effort, and it depends on whether he is willing or not.
After a period of accidents, Luo Shixin gradually regained his calm, and he relied on his own strength to get to this point, without any support. Huo Qubing can serve as a hussar general in the year of the weak crown, why can't he be a right guard general?
Thinking of this, Luo Shixin said in a loud voice: "Some rewards." ”
