Chapter 116 The Mountains and Waters Recover

Li Shimin said to Guanyin that his mother, Mrs. Dou, had something to say before she died.

These words were spoken by the mother to the father.

If it comes out of his mouth, there is a suspicion of criticizing the elder, and I am afraid it will be regarded as unfilial piety.

Guanyin smiled and said, "Then you can hold it in your stomach and don't say anything to anyone."

Li Shimin was embarrassed, "But if you don't say it, you won't be able to discuss with you about raising troops to start an incident."

Guanyin saw that Li Shimin was in a dilemma, so she enlightened him,

"You and I are husband and wife, husband and wife are one, are you still afraid that I will not be able to publicize what you say to the outside world?"

"Mother must have been painstaking in saying these things to you."

"If you don't listen to your mother, you are also unfilial."

------

Li Shimin listened to Guanyin's words, so he decided to tell Guanyin's dying words.

"You're not an outsider anyway, so I'll tell you."

"My mother said that after she died, she would not be able to succeed on her father's own."

"She said that my father had a weakness, which was to be too thoughtful and indecisive."

"Although I have high ambitions and a good picture of the future, when I say that I will implement them, I will not move forward."

"Up to now, you are a relative of the emperor and a prince of the first grade, but you have only been awarded a real position of the fourth grade."

------

Guanyin listened to Li Shimin's account of Mrs. Dou's deathbed confession, and thought to herself, listening to her aunt's tone, she seemed to be not very satisfied with Li Yuan.

But she didn't dare to ask, for fear of angering Li Shimin.

Li Shimin continued,

"Father and mother have always been gracious, but when she sees that his father is lazy, she does not force his father too much."

"So she put her hope in our brethren."

"From an early age, let us practice martial arts, study, and establish lofty ambitions."

"When I was in Zhuozhou, my mother saw that she was getting sicker and knew that her wish in this life was difficult."

"On the sickbed, my mother said to me, the eldest brother is the most father, and someone must push everything behind."

"My mother said that I was like her, and asked me to give more advice to my father and eldest brother to push them forward."

------

Guanyin didn't know much about Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng's situation.

She asked Li Shimin, "Are my father and uncle really what my mother said?"

Li Shimin sighed,

"The person who knows the two of them best in this world is their mother."

"When my mother was alive, she urged my father and eldest brother to do many important things."

"Now that my mother is gone, this impetus is gone, and I am afraid that my father and eldest brother will be content with the status quo."

"If that's the case, my mother's wish will never come true."

------

When Guanyin heard Mrs. Dou's expectations for Li Shimin, her heart was sweet.

She also felt that Li Shimin was indeed like Mrs. Dou, a person who was resolute and capable of achieving great things.

She encouraged Li Shimin,

"Brother Shimin, don't be discouraged, isn't there still you? You are also a mother's hope."

"Since Mother said so, Brother Shimin will do as she tells me."

Li Shimin is full of sorrow, and now he is at a loss.

"Why don't I want to do what my mother says?"

"But the current situation is that there is no preparation at all."

"Isn't it easy to start everything from scratch?"

------

Guanyin asked Li Shimin, "Didn't you say that the uncle is preparing?"

Li Shimin sighed, and he told all the worries in his heart to Guanyin.

"If you want to raise troops to start an incident, it is not a simple matter, people, money, and materials must be carefully prepared."

"People include generals, strategists, soldiers of all ranks, and soldiers."

"Weapons and equipment, all kinds of equipment, grain, grass, baggage, and horses."

"The money includes military salaries, the cost of purchasing various goods, and so on."

"So far, none of this has been settled, so how can we talk about raising troops?"

"And to do these things, we need to use large-scale manpower, material resources, and financial resources."

"How can you not be discovered by the imperial court if you are so prosperous? It's easier said than done."

"Big brother has only recruited a few people so far."

"In a sense, it's better than nothing."

------

Guanyin listened to Li Shimin say the same, indicating that he had already considered it seriously.

She nodded frequently and agreed with Li Shimin's statement,

"Brother Shimin thinks very comprehensively, and it is by no means easy to raise troops."

"If you want to achieve great things, you must gather tens of thousands, or even more than 100,000 troops, in a short period of time."

"These armies must also be well-trained and mature in combat before they can have the possibility of confronting the imperial court."

"Hundreds, thousands, may be wiped out by the imperial court in an instant."

------

Li Shimin was depressed, his expression was a little gloomy, and he sighed repeatedly,

"I think the eldest brother is still in the stage of utopian dreams, and he has not formulated a feasible concrete strategy."

"Expecting to train hundreds of Zhuang Ding to win the world is really a fool's dream."

"All aspirations and aspirations need to be put into practice before they can be realized gradually."

"If you don't take the first step, everything will always be a pipe dream."

Guanyin saw that Li Shimin was in a bad mood, and she didn't have a better idea.

Both were silent, each lost in thought.

------

Li Shimin was thinking about how to plan to raise troops in the next step to make it possible.

First of all, Li Shimin analyzed that his father Li Yuan personally planned and prepared.

Come to think of it, it won't work in the current situation.

Over the years, Li Yuan has traveled with Yang Guang all year round.

There is no chance or possibility at all, under Yang Guang's nose, he is planning to prepare for a rebellion.

A civilian official wanted to rebel by Yang Guang's side.

That's either crazy, stupid, and self-defeating.

------

Li Shi only pinned his hopes on his eldest brother Li Jiancheng.

So, is it feasible for Li Jiancheng to secretly plan?

He evaluated Li Jiancheng and the few people he recruited one by one in his heart.

Li Shimin felt that these people simply did not have the ability to create immortal deeds.

------

First of all, from Li Jiancheng's words, his mother said that he was indecisive, which is very accurate.

As a mother, Mrs. Dou knows her son best.

To make up for Li Jiancheng's weaknesses, he needs someone to assist him.

Li Jiancheng now needs someone who has the overall situation in mind, is resourceful and decisive, and can help him plan holistically.

This man must have courage and action.

The most important thing is that this person must have Li Jiancheng's full trust.

Li Jiancheng is willing to take it as the backbone.

This person who assists him can lead or push Li Jiancheng to move forward step by step.

It's like Liu Bei needs Zhuge Kongming.

However, now Li Jiancheng is around him, there is a lack of people like Zhuge Liang.

------

Li Shimin analyzed several people he saw in the afternoon one by one.

Although Yang Wengan has some talent, the pattern is too small.

He has no experience in politics, does not understand officialdom and the political situation, and has no experience in actually leading troops to fight.

What is learned in the book is different from what is applied in reality.

Even if Yang Wengan has some opinions, they are only on paper, and they are far from reality.

Yang Wengan does not have the ability to influence Li Jiancheng.

He can only obey Li Jiancheng and obey Li Jiancheng's orders.

Er Zhusheng and Qiao Gongshan have a martial arts, and they can only be used as generals who charge into battle in the future.

As for whether it can be of great use, it still needs to be tested in actual combat.

------

Although Wang Jue has the overall situation in mind, he reads the book of sages and sages, and talks about benevolence, righteousness and morality.

In terms of life and work, people like Wang Jue tend to follow the rules, stick to the old ways, and are not good at being flexible.

Moreover, he did not know how to use troops, and it was difficult for him to play a staff role in the matter of raising troops.

Wang Jue is respected and trusted by Li Jiancheng.

However, not only could he not help Li Jiancheng complete the army, but he would imprison Li Jiancheng's thoughts.

------

When fighting the world, what you want is unscrupulous.

Benevolence, righteousness and morality are the kindness of women, and a good heart will kill more people.

Scheming, sometimes seemingly despicable and cruel.

But it can reduce the cost of war, speed up the process of victory, and save more people from needless deaths.

Wang Qi can only be used as a good talent to govern the country after he conquers the world in the future.

He is not the right-hand man who helped Li Jiancheng fight the world.

------

Li Shimin considered whether he could recruit more intelligent talents to assist Li Jiancheng.

But after thinking about it carefully, he felt that this was not very likely.

He knows his brother, and Li Jiancheng is a person who attaches great importance to feelings and nostalgia.

Now Wang Qi, Yang Wengan and others have occupied an important position in Li Jiancheng's heart in advance.

It is very difficult for others to replace these people in Li Jiancheng's heart.

------

Li Jiancheng has a particularly close relationship with Wang Qi, Yang Wengan and others.

There was no talk between them.

Even such a major event as rebellion, they can openly talk about it with each other, and it can be said that they are friends of life and death.

A small circle has formed between them.

If someone else wants to intervene, they can only be outside the core layer, in a subordinate position.

------

Suppose Li Jiancheng wants to reuse others.

These people will feel left out.

They may become jealous or get in the way.

Now a strange circle has formed around Li Jiancheng.

If he did not recruit higher-level wise men and heroes, Li Jiancheng would not succeed in raising troops.

However, recruiting higher-level wise men and heroes may be squeezed out by Yang Wengan and others, and they will not be able to play a role.

------

Li Shimin thought about it, and he came to his own inference.

If you want to realize the last wish of your mother, Mrs. Dou, it will not work at all to take the road of Li Jiancheng's plan to raise troops.

If you deny one way, you can only think of other paths.

Li Shimin wanted to do it himself, but he felt that it was not feasible.

As the second son, if he forms another group of people, it will be tantamount to starting from scratch and working against Li Jiancheng.

------

It is not feasible to take either way, and Li Shimin's thinking has reached a dead end.

He frowned, lost in distress.

After thinking to no avail, he shook his head helplessly.

Guanyin saw that Li Shimin was muffled and didn't speak, and she didn't bother.

Now he saw Li Shimin shaking his head, so he asked,

"Brother Shimin, are you still thinking about how to raise an army?"

Li Shimin nodded, his words of disappointment overflowing,

"I've thought about it, and there's no way forward."

"I can't rely on my eldest brother, I can't rely on myself, and I can't rely on my father."

------

Guanyin suddenly remembered something that her mother Gao Qiuniang had said.

Before his father, Changsun Sheng, died, Li Yuan went to visit him.

At that time, Changsun Sheng once said two words to Li Yuan.

Guanyin had an idea, and told Li Shimin these two words.

Although there are only two words, it wakes up the dreamer at once.

Li Shimin listened to Guanyin say these two words.

He was overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "Did my father-in-law really say these two words?"
