Chapter 162 Here is fun, and the joy is endless (Xie 20220913173144229 the main reward
Yun Chu's recital is very long, so there is no way to use big characters, and it is very inconvenient for Li Zhi to use small letters.
However, this time he didn't ask Wu Mei for help, but called his secretary Cheng and asked him to recite Yun Chu's recital word by word, and he occasionally picked up the recital with difficulty to check it to see if there was anything missing.
Wu Mei knelt opposite the emperor expressionlessly, the secretary Cheng was sweating and trembling and reciting, and Li Zhi was listening carefully.
Yun Chu told the emperor in the recital that although Nanzhao was a poor and barbaric land, it was the weakest time when the Tubo people had already left Muboro.
It was the right time to take advantage of his illness and ask for his life.
At this time, if you can take the Nanzhao, move the people in the mountains into Sichuan to live, it is a great opportunity for a hundred years, once the Tubo people take the mud Bora again, look east again Nanzhao, at that time, Nanzhao will become a maggot with bones, will make the Tang Dynasty bleed forever.
Yun Chu also said in the middle of the song: "The Tang army that entered Nanzhao this time will pursue light equipment, although light equipment is not as good as heavy equipment to protect the lives of the government soldiers, but in view of the rudimentary weapons of the Nanzhao barbarians, even if they are lightly armed, it is still beneficial to the Tang Dynasty.
Datang's defeat this time was not because Datang's iron armor failed, but because Datang's iron armor was used in an inappropriate place, in a humid, sultry, and rainy place, wearing heavy armor would not only not protect the soldiers, but would become a burden to them.
The defeat of the Tang Mansion soldiers this time was entirely the result of their reckless pursuit of merit.
Yun Chu explained in detail to the emperor that a small army would encounter these problems if it had a solid front line and grain routes, as well as a fortified city, and rashly retreated into an area full of enemies.
"The enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy is stationed and disturbs me, the enemy is tired and I fight, and the enemy retreats and I chase!"
Li Zhi repeated the strategy of the barbarians mentioned by Yun Chu in the recital this time against the small armored soldiers, and said to Wu Mei with a sigh: "This is the real general of my Tang Dynasty.
Ying Gong used to say that Yun Chu led 3,000 iron cavalry to crisscross the world, and those who commanded 6,000 soldiers and horses were all broken, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses could be the generals who defended the city, and 100,000 soldiers and horses were worried about losing their teachers and humiliating the country.
Now, Yun Chu's talent is enough to serve as the head of the road."
Wu Mei was silent.
Li Zhi insisted on reading Yun Chu's recital, rubbed his temples and said to Wu Mei: "Wang Fangyi and Cheng Wuting are timid, since they like to go to the Western Regions to fight, let's go to the Western Regions to be a protector."
Wu Mei said softly, "They just didn't ask for battle, they didn't fight timidly."
Li Zhi laughed and said, "I said that cowardice is cowardice, since they don't like to go to the Western Regions to be the protector, then go to the prefectures and counties of Annan to join the army, and set off immediately, without delay."
Wu Mei saw that although the emperor was smiling, there was no half temperature in her words, and she knew that if she helped these two people again at this moment, the emperor might be assigned to be a jumper in front of their Liaodong army.
Seeing that Wu Mei didn't speak, the emperor said to the secretary who was accompanying him in the main hall, "In the future, the concert of the border pass will be sent directly to the emperor."
Wu Mei's face was ugly but she didn't leave, and looked at Li Zhi and said, "Is Your Majesty ready to use Yun Chu as the head of the Jiannan Dao march?"
Li Zhi glanced at Wu Mei, put his hands on his knees peacefully and said, "Do you think it's wrong?"
Wu Mei said: "Once Yun Chu is appointed as the head of the march of Jiannan Dao, the forty-two Guzhou counties of Jiannan Dao will be ruled by Yun Chu, Your Majesty, Jiannan Dao is different from Guanzhong, where the terrain is dangerous and the environment is closed, once Jianmen Pass is closed, Shuzhong will become a world of its own."
Li Zhi said with a smile: "In the past, the power and talent of the heroic prince were not much higher than that of Yunchu, I still handed over the Tang Dynasty to 380,000 troops, and then, I harvested, what, I harvested the entire Liaodong, and destroyed the three kingdoms of Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla in one fell swoop, becoming an immortal cause and comforting the heroic souls of the ancestors.
I told you before that I trusted Yun Chu very much, and he would repay me a hundred times, and I would rather believe that Yun Chu was my Great Tree General than that he would be Zhao Tuo of Lian! 「
Wu Mei said expressionlessly, "In this case, Your Majesty's choice for the deputy general needs to be carefully considered."
Li Zhidao
"Who do you think would be better?"
Wu Mei said, "It needs to be selected among the courtiers."
Li Zhi shook his head and said, "I, don't equip Yun Chu with any lieutenants, let him choose."
Wu Mei was taken aback and said, "Your Majesty, how can military affairs be such a child's play?"
Li Zhi looked at Wu Mei and smiled, "Have you ever listened carefully to the content of Yun Chu's recital?"
Wu Mei frowned and said, "The concubine listened.
Li Zhi said: "Since you have listened, you should have heard what Yun Chu asked, but there are 50,000 soldiers, 3,000 soldiers, and the Linbian Prefecture to listen to his dispatch and jointly put pressure on the southwest. Listen clearly, those state capitals should form a front with him, jointly suppress to the southwest, and reduce the area of Sheng Luopi's activities, once the main force of Sheng Luopi is accumulated in one place, his army can be wiped out in one drum.
Only 50,000 soldiers, 3,000 soldiers, I will return it.
If the queen is not at ease, she can tell Yizhou to assassinate the history more, and the Jianmen guard will keep Yao Hong staring at Yun Chu."
Wu Mei said, "Since Your Majesty has made a decision, the concubine will obey the order."
Li Zhi waved his hand and said, "Stand down, I'm tired."
Wu Mei sighed faintly and got up to leave.
When Wu Mei walked away, Li Zhi coughed lightly, and Ruichun appeared in front of Li Zhi like a ghost, Li Zhi pointed to the trembling secretary Cheng and said to Ruichun, "Kill it."
The secretary kowtowed like garlic, but was dragged out of Shangyang Palace by two armed eunuchs with their mouths covered.
A moment later, Ruichun walked in with a plate, lifted the red silk cloth covering the plate, and the distorted face of the secretary Cheng appeared in front of He Lizhi.
Li Zhi waved his hand and said, "Thick burial!"
Ruichun said yes and turned to leave.
Li Zhi was about to close his eyes and rest, but he heard the sound of the giant bear's fat paws stepping on the floor, beckoning, and the giant bear ran over happily and sat beside Li Zhi with his paws in his arms like a person.
Li Zhi patted the giant bear's leg and said, "I'm going to sleep, help me watch it."
With that, he turned around and fell asleep on the brocade.
Li Si's hair is already a foot long, she didn't pull her hair up, but casually tied a lively short ponytail at the back of her head, and the ponytail jumped up and down when she walked, coupled with her not exquisite, but very attractive girlish face, even Li Hong, who was used to seeing her in men's clothes on weekdays, felt that her sister looked good today.
Pei Wanying, who was with the prince, saw that Li Si was holding a black clay pot in his hand, so she immediately nervously picked up her son Li Shou, for fear that the child would touch the jar.
Li Hong wrinkled his nose and sniffed, "You made chicken soup today?"
Li Si smiled and said, "Centipede rooster soup."
Pei Wanying's face turned pale when she heard the word centipede, but Li Hong said with great interest, "Is there anything to say?"
Li Sidao: "First take out twenty Lingnan big centipedes and put them on the bound rooster, let these centipedes bite the venom into the rooster's body as much as possible, and then put the centipede into boiling water to drain the last toxins, and when the centipede is scalded, then put it in ice water and soak it for a mile, the shell of the centipede will be easily torn off and become a piece of white meat long with chopsticks."
At this time, the chicken feathers are removed, the internal organs of the rooster are removed, and the three things are finally put in, centipede meat, and the rooster meat is boiled in a clay pot over high heat, and the pot of centipede rooster soup is ready."
Under Pei Wanying's frightened gaze, Li Si fished out a bowl of centipede rooster soup from the crockpot and put it in front of Li Hong.
Without waiting for Li Hong to speak, Pei Wanying shouted, "The rooster was bitten to death by a centipede, prince, this chicken is poisonous."
Li Hong didn't seem to hear it, in front of the crown princess and the palace people, he took a sip of soup from the bowl, and then frowned and laughed, "It's really delicious."
Li Si's eyes smiled crookedly, and she fished out several crystal clear centipede meat from the jar, and put them into Li Hong's bowl with chicken nuggets.
Pei Wanying, who had been stunned for a long time, was so frightened by Li Si's words that she shuddered, and saw that the prince was busy drinking soup and eating meat, and tears flowed down her eyes in a hurry.
Li Si saw that Pei Wanying didn't eat it, so he took the bowl back, and said to Pei Wanying while drinking the soup: "The more poisonous the poison, the more delicious the meat taste, and after the centipede venom enters the rooster's body, it can stimulate the umami taste of the chicken.
I bought these centipedes from the great forest in the southwest, each one is more than a foot long, and this jar of soup uses twenty centipedes, and my sister-in-law doesn't eat them, it's a pity."
Li Hong smiled and slapped Li Si's head and said, "Don't tease your sister-in-law."
Then he turned around and began to load centipede meat and chicken for himself, and after making a big bowl, he said to Pei Wanying, "This is not lonely
Pei Wanying heard that the old fairy had not been poisoned after eating it, so she finally put her mind at ease and asked suspiciously, "Can you really eat this thing without poison?"
Li Hong smiled: "Don't listen to Sisi's deception, it doesn't have that effect, but this thing is really delicious, I will leave a bowl for a while, and I will send it to Xu Gong."
Pei Wanying couldn't see the greedy eating of the brother and sister, so she hugged the child and took the palace people to retreat.
After Li Hong drank the last mouthful of soup in the bowl, he said to Li Si: "You have always been stingy, why are you so generous today, and you are willing to take out your heart and soul to make soup for my brother and me?"
Li Sidao: "I'm going to the southwest, these things are useless."
Li Hong sighed when he heard this, "I want to go too, but unfortunately I don't have the opportunity."
Li Si smiled: "You are destined to only be able to guard your throne in this life, and you can't go anywhere."
Li Hong smiled and said: "This Chinese music is endless, if you don't understand, just say less sour words."
