0080 Northwest Victory
Yan Bincheng nodded at Zhao Qingfeng's words, after getting along for the past few days, he also knew that Zhao Qingfeng was a capable person. Although www.biquge.info didn't know why he only lasted so many days, he was still willing to believe him.
"And what about the Sharp Knife troops in our rear? When will they strike? They only brought a week's worth of rations, and it's been three days now. Do you want to go with tomorrow's reinforcements?"
Zhao Qingfeng shook his head when he heard this, and said: "Don't worry, the enemy's strength is not lost at this time, and if there is chaos in the rear, it will definitely retreat." Then although we crushed the opponent's attack this time, after the opponent dealt with the death squad, the next one will inevitably come soon. So, we're going to wait. Wait until the opponent's forces are reduced to the point where they are tasteless and it is a pity to abandon them. When the other party wants to leave, they will not be willing to give up this low-hanging fruit, and that is when they will make a move. ”
Hearing this, Yan Bincheng no longer hesitated, but turned around and gave the order.
On the matter of the northwest border pass, Li Hongtian could not give judgment and orders in time. So he wrote back to Zhao Qingfeng with only one sentence: Be improvised, don't be rash.
In this way, the days passed day by day, until half a month later (the time when the letter was delivered), the Northwest Victory suddenly came to Chang'an.
"Retreated, retreated, Tubo retreated!!"
With the advent of the good news, the cheers resounded all the way through the streets of Chang'an. Soon, Li Hongtian, who was practicing swords, received the news of good news, wiped the beads of sweat, Li Hongtian smiled at Aunt Gongsun, and said: "These rabbit cubs finally didn't disappoint me. In this way, I think that during my father's attack on Goryeo, no one would dare to brush the tiger's beard again. ”
Aunt Gongsun rolled her beautiful eyes when she heard this, she has been familiar with Li Hongtian these days, and she knows what kind of person he is. looked at Li Hongtian angrily and said, "Your Highness, how old are you, you actually called the two courtiers." ”
Li Hongtian was also a little embarrassed when he heard this, but he was bald with joy for a while. After blushing a little, he hurriedly spoke: "Everyone, I think we should have a holiday today." It's rare to have such a festive event, and you should go back for a meal. I haven't seen the moon in a few days. I think that girl misses me too. ”
Hearing this, Aunt Gongsun nodded in agreement. secretly glanced at Li Hongtian and quietly swallowed the saliva secreted. She has long been conquered by Li Hongtian's cooking skills, and now she has become a complete foodie. In addition to practicing swords, eating has become her biggest hobby, what piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, talented and beautiful, far less attractive than a meal.
Li Hongtian naturally saw Aunt Gongsun's inconspicuous behavior, but he didn't debunk it. He wasn't going to be careful enough to see that.
In the evening, they accompanied Zhou Mingyue and finished a sumptuous dinner, and Li Hongtian rarely did not return to Taiji Palace to approve the folds. Instead, he hugged the little girl early and went to sleep. Although he doesn't talk about it these days, he is still very worried. It's not that it's a bad plan, it's that thousands of lives hang there. Now he can get a good night's sleep. As long as the army that defeated Goguryeo returned victoriously, then the Tibetans would inevitably surrender.
Unfortunately, will the crusade against Goguryeo really go well? Will the history be strikingly similar? But this is no longer in his consideration, at least at this time, he is not in a position to solve those problems.
On the second day, when Li Hongtian went to court, all the officials congratulated him. What praises Li Hongtian for his wisdom and martial arts, and what praises Zhao Qingfeng for his youth and promisingness. In short, there is a sound of sycophants everywhere. Li Hongtian listened to the excitement of the hundred officials, and then he spoke: "The first time I received the battle report yesterday, I already sent a letter to my father. In addition, it was also ordered that Zhao Qing's family and the remaining guards come back to receive the reward. The Ministry of Officials can study the reward matter and directly distribute General Yan Bincheng's reward to the border pass. By the way, tell him to stabilize the border and be careful of the enemy to kill back the pistol. As for the other rewards, just report them back to me and talk about them when they come back. ”
Hearing this, the officials hurriedly responded.
At this moment, the eldest grandson Wuji spoke: "Since His Royal Highness is so familiar with marching and fighting, and knows how to make good use of people, why not make a prediction and make an idea of the war in Goguryeo? ”
Hearing this, Li Hongtian was silent on his face, but he was disgusted in his heart. Does the eldest grandson Wuji really not understand or falsely understand? I wonder if this is the same as Zhao Kuo's talk on paper? And is it like a taboo like changing commanders on the verge of battle? What do others think of the most important thing? If he wins because of his strategy, it is fine, but if he loses? I am afraid that he will be the backstabber. And even if you don't use his strategy, everyone will think that he, the prince, is anxious for the throne.
Thinking of this, Li Hongtian was expressionless, and said lightly: "Does the eldest grandson's family know how far Chang'an is from Goguryeo?"
The eldest grandson Wuji was stunned when he heard this, how could he answer this kind of question? Should he ask the household department that measures the land, right? But he still replied: "Weichen doesn't know, but Lord Chen of the household department should know." ”
When Li Hongtian heard this, he said to Chen He, the minister of the household department, "Lord Chen may answer this question?"
When Chen He heard this, he hurriedly stepped out of the column and said, "Back to Your Highness, my Tang Chang'an is about 4,500 miles away from Goguryeo. ”
When Li Hongtian heard this, he spoke: "Yes, the distance is four thousand five hundred miles. Even if it is an 800-mile emergency report, it would take five and a half days to run, and if it were not for the urgent report, how long would it take for the news to be delivered? The battlefield is changing every moment, and even if I come up with a plan, I will definitely not be able to implement it. Even if there is a good means to break the enemy, it will be delayed because of the lack of information. Therefore, the eldest grandson Qing's family should do their part. ”
Hearing this, the eldest grandson Wuji bowed down quietly and pleaded: "The minister has a mistake, Your Highness, please forgive your sin." ”
Although the eldest grandson Wuji did not say anything when he spoke, he lowered his head and had anger in his eyes. No matter what his purpose was in this matter, Li Hongtian's last sentence was a slap in the face.
"Well, that's the end of the morning morning. If there is nothing important, just retreat. ”
The ministers obviously saw that Li Hongtian was not very happy, and it was really difficult to speak at this juncture.
After the courtiers dispersed, Li Hongtian walked out of the Taiji Hall, looked at the sky outside and said to himself: "Father, I hope you will come back safely as soon as possible." This day of intrigue is really heartbreaking, but I still like to be a gentleman. ”
After speaking, Li Hongtian turned around and said to Deshun and Xiangwu, who were already waiting on the side: "Let's go, go to the Ministry of Industry." Things are pretty much done, and some things should be dealt with. ”
"Yes, Your Highness. ”
"Your Highness, I'll go and prepare the car. ”
