Volume 4 Chapter 431 The reaction of the Chang'an court!
The battle between the Ming Dynasty and Tuyuhun finally came to an end with Murong Fuyun's suicide.
Of course, this does not mean that the war is really over.
Although Murong Fuyun was defeated, including him, as well as Dayan Mangjiebo and King Dingcheng in Watering River City, they were all dead, but the next small-scale battles would continue to continue.
Moreover, with the defeat of Murong Fuyun, Tuyuhun, who has no leader, will inevitably come out with a large number of careerists.
They will continue to deal with Li Chengqian under the banner of restoration.
This is clear to everyone, including Li Chengqian.
This is inevitable, and no one can change it.
Because that's what man desires.
Moreover, every careerist who takes advantage of the situation will feel that he is the chosen one who can save Tuyuhun, and it will not be until all careerists have embarked on the old path of Murong Fuyun that Tuyuhun will finally calm down.
But in the process of calming down, many people will inevitably die, and even Tuyuhun will be dragged down.
No one can change that.
And this is also the reason why Li Chengqian ordered Qi Bi He Li to wave his troops north, he wants to take Tuyuhun as soon as possible, and he will inevitably have to go through a lot of fighting.
This is war, and it is the essence of war.
War has always been like this.
In the same way, whether it is the river pouring army or the western army, they do not want the war to stop.
This is also the reason why Murong Fuyun died.
Because, too many people hope that the war will not end prematurely.
Everyone has their own aspirations, or rather, everyone has their own goals.
A lot of times, it's not like one person can decide everything, and most of the time, everyone has to learn to compromise.
Especially for people like Li Chengqian, who have something to ask for, no one can be an exception.
But all this is no longer important to Li Chengqian.
This battle was won, and he became the one who had the last laugh, that's the truth.
It wasn't until this moment that Li Chengqian was really relieved.
Don't look at how calm he was before, but no one knows how much pressure he was under.
He knew very well that this big battle was a little worse, and the Ming Dynasty court he created would be short-lived, brilliant and brilliant, but he was also terrified, but fortunately, he had the last laugh after all.
In the final analysis, this battle is about the details, the overall grasp, and the people's hearts.
If there is an accident in one place on each battlefield, the entire battle situation will be turned upside down.
"Your Highness, the king asks to see you." Just when Li Chengqian breathed a sigh of relief, Liu San opened the curtain and walked in.
Li Chengqian raised his head, smiled, and said, "Bring him in, speaking of which, you have made great contributions to this battle!" ”
"Your Highness, I am glad that I have not been dishonored!" As soon as Wang Xuance entered Li Chengqian's big tent, he hurriedly gave a salute, and as he spoke, he looked at Li Chengqian's gaze, full of excitement.
Everyone thought that this mission to the countries of the Western Regions was his credit, but only he knew that all this was planned by Li Chengqian.
On the way back, he kept thinking about why Li Chengqian could always solve this seemingly unsolvable problem, and after thinking about it for a long time, he seemed to have found an answer, but it was vague.
"Good work." Li Chengqian walked out from behind the table, patted Wang Xuance on the shoulder and said, "You have made great contributions this time, if it weren't for you, this battle would not have ended so easily." ”
This is the truth, what really overwhelmed Murong Fuyun was precisely the last straw of the Western Regions Alliance.
"Weichen doesn't dare to take credit, if it weren't for the ...... of the palace"
"Alright." Before he finished speaking, Li Chengqian waved his hand and said, "You have to have the ability yourself, if you don't have this ability, even if this king has the best method, he won't be able to do it."
By the way, can Ashina's mud be arranged? ”
"Back to Your Highness, Weichen is here to report this matter." Wang Xuance hurriedly said.
"Huh?" Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows, "Something happened?" ”
"It's not an accident." Wang Xuance said, took a few steps forward and whispered a few words in Li Chengqian's ear......
After listening to him, Li Chengqian nodded and shook his head again: "This Ashina mud is a little interesting, okay, let's take a look." ”
"And." Wang Xuance said again, "The allied generals of the Western Regions countries ask to see His Highness. ”
"That's it." Li Chengqian thought for a while and said, "The war is over, it's time to treat the army, in the evening, let Gao Chunxing arrange it in the evening, prepare a banquet, and then send a post to the representatives of the Western Regions." ”
When Li Chengqian's side was celebrating the victory with singing and dancing, the news of the Ming Dynasty's defeat of Tuyuhun also spread out.
The countries of the Western Regions are okay, they have long expected it.
However, the countries of Tubo and Xue Yantuo were more shocked than the other.
Especially in Tibet, when Songtsen Gampo heard the news, he directly stopped the war with Subi, and even sent an envoy to negotiate peace with Subi.
Of course, the most shocking thing is Datang.
When the news reached Datang, no one was not shocked.
Especially the King of Qiuzi, who attacked Hezhou, was stunned when he heard the news.
That night, he led the army back to the Shimizu River.
It also made the Taoyuan defenders who assisted in the defense of Hezhou mistakenly think that this guy had any tricks, but who knows, what they were waiting for was not the tricks of King Qiuzi, but the good news of the Ming Dynasty's defeat of Tuyuhun.
At that moment, everyone was stunned.
They couldn't believe that Li Chengqian had really completed the feat of swallowing an elephant in a short period of time......
Immediately, the news was transmitted back to Chang'an.
Zhenguan 7th year, the end of April.
Li Er had nothing to do, so at the invitation of the eldest grandson Wuji, he visited the workshop of the eldest grandson's family.
Recently, everyone knows Li Er's attitude towards craftsmen, but there are not many people who really like him, and Changsun Wuji has done it the most obviously.
Of course, this is not to say that others are unwilling to do this, in fact, the entire Tang Dynasty, except for the imperial court, has done the largest business in the iron business of the eldest grandson's family.
Although in ancient times, salt and iron were monopolized, but in the early Tang Dynasty, in order to save the business of the Tang Dynasty, Li Er still allowed the people to trade salt and iron on their own.
After walking around, Li Er smiled and said, "Your workshop is doing a good job, so you have bothered." ”
As he spoke, Li Er patted Changsun Wuji's shoulder.
He knew why the eldest grandson Wuji would invest so much in the workshop, and he was still very relieved at the moment.
If we want to reform the industry, it is not enough to rely on the Ministry of Industry alone.
If he does not realize the need for reform from top to bottom, then his reform will be a failure.
"Your Majesty laughed, as a courtier, it is the responsibility of those of us as courtiers to share your Majesty's worries." The eldest grandson Wuji smiled, "By the way, Your Majesty, our workshop has recently researched ......."
As soon as he said this, he heard a commotion outside.
"What's going on?" Li Er asked.
The eldest grandson Wuji called it a hate, but there was no way, so he had to ask people to inquire.
After a while, the servants of the eldest grandson family hurriedly ran back and said, "Your Majesty, great joy, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince defeated Murong Fuyun, and Murong Fuyun was shot off his horse by His Royal Highness's arrow......"
Let's not talk about how exaggerated the news is, but when they heard that Li Chengqian defeated Murong Fuyun, Li Er and Eldest Sun Wuji were both stunned.
Is this a win?
Is it possible?
Are you sure you're not kidding us?
"Dare to use hearsay to deceive Your Majesty, damn it!" The eldest grandson Wuji immediately shouted angrily, "How did the old man teach you on weekdays!" ”
He was also afraid that this was not a trivial matter, even if it was just a miscellaneous servant in his house, but after all, it was a person in his house.
In other words, he didn't believe it either.
Li Chengqian's ability to block Tuyuhun is already a fluke, defeating Murong Fuyun, what are you making trouble, what did Li Chengqian do to defeat Murong Fuyun?
He does have the advantage of armament, but is it so simple to rely on his few troops to resist Murong Fuyun's army of tens of thousands?
Moreover, there are also the Western Turks and the Western Regions countries that are eyeing each other, and they really don't see what chance Li Chengqian has to win.
Even Li Er didn't believe it.
There is no way, Li Chengqian's situation really has no hope of winning.
"The little ones should be damned, the little ones should be damned." Hearing the eldest grandson Wuji say this, the servant was also startled, and immediately knelt on the ground, and the whole person was trembling.
Li Er didn't react, but said in a calm tone: "Don't embarrass him, it's not too early, I will go back to the palace." ”
Li Er has always been tolerant of these servants, especially those of other people's families.
It's just that the news just now really shocked him.
He also wanted to go back and figure it out.
It's just that before he left the workshop, a personal guard whispered in his ear.
Li Er was just stunned in place for an instant.
Fuck, it's true?
"Let's go, go back to the palace, Mowgli, you are also with me." Li Er said immediately, he didn't expect that what the handyman said just now was actually true.
Gao Ming really defeated Murong Fuyun!
This......
When Li Er returned to the palace, the civil and military officials who also received the news were already waiting outside the palace gate.
"Your Majesty......"
"Let's talk about it when we go back to the palace." Li Er waved his hand and said, "By the way, what about the Hezhou messenger?" Take him to the Taiji Hall, I have something to ask him. ”
Not only him, everyone here wanted to know what happened to Tuyuhun and why Li Chengqian was suddenly able to defeat Tuyuhun.
After a short time, everyone returned to the Taiji Hall again.
Li Er sat on the dragon chair, looked at His Highness's Hezhou messenger and said, "Tell me everything you know." ”
"Back to Your Majesty." The messenger from Hezhou said, "Not long ago, King Qiuzi's army suddenly withdrew, and we thought he was going to play some tricks, but we waited for the news that His Highness had defeated Murong Fuyun and that Murong Fuyun had committed suicide before the battle.
Then we sent scouts deep into Tuyuhun to listen to the news, and then ......"
When the messenger finished speaking, everyone was stunned.
Although they received the news, they only knew that Li Chengqian had defeated Murong Fuyun, and they didn't know the specific details.
And the news channels are also varied, and this is the first time to understand the whole picture.
All of them had expressions of disbelief on their faces.
"It's understandable that this Ashina will send troops to aid His Highness, but what is the situation in the countries of the Western Regions?" Someone asked right away.
They had analyzed the situation of the Ming Dynasty before, and the conclusion at that time was that the Ming Dynasty was already the limit if it could hold Tuyuhun back, but now you tell them that Li Chengqian won!
even defeated Tuyuhun's army of tens of thousands, which made them unable to accept it for a while.
The point is that they all believe that there is an irreconcilable contradiction between the countries of the Western Regions and Li Chengqian, but now the countries of the Western Regions are Li Chengqian's reinforcements, which is completely beyond their expectations and even more incomprehensible to them.
"Your Highness must have promised the countries of the Western Regions some benefits, otherwise, the countries of the Western Regions would not be able to fight back." Eldest Sun Wuji said, "Wechen heard before that Murong Fuyun has been colluding with the countries of the Western Regions and Ashina recently, preparing to join them to send troops against His Highness.
As a result, the two reinforcements he personally brought in both of them turned back, and there was definitely something going on that we didn't know about.
Your Majesty, it is necessary for us to find out what is the connection between the Ming Dynasty and the countries of the Western Regions.
At least I have to confirm whether this will have any impact on my Datang. ”
As he spoke, everyone nodded.
Li Chengqian once said that he would sweep through the Western Regions, which was also the starting point of the contradiction between him and the countries of the Western Regions, but now he has joined forces with the countries of the Western Regions to completely annihilate Tuyuhun, which is not normal in itself.
There is no reason for the countries of the Western Regions to help Li Chengqian.
After all, Li Chengqian took the entire Tuyuhun, so he really had the capital to sweep the Western Regions, and it was impossible for them not to see this.
But they obviously saw this, but they still chose to help Li Chengqian, why is this?
"That's not the most important issue." Fang Xuanling said, "Your Highness has now completely annihilated tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Tuyuhun, in other words, Your Highness now has enough ability to control the entire territory of Tuyuhun.
Your Majesty, the Ming Dynasty has really grown into a dynasty that cannot be ignored.
According to what the messenger said just now, His Highness now has nearly 100,000 empty strings under his command, which is already a force to be reckoned with.
It is no exaggeration to say that in the northwest area, His Highness's strength is now enough to be proud of the others.
And after accepting Murong Fuyun's political legacy, His Highness's strength will definitely develop further.
Your Majesty, it's time to curb the development of the Ming Dynasty. ”
Since Li Chengqian founded the country in the northwest, this was the first time that Fang Xuanling advocated curbing Li Chengqian's development.
But this time, even Wei Zheng didn't say anything.
Indeed, it is indeed time to curb Li Chengqian's development momentum.
If this development continues, Li Chengqian's strength will only become stronger and stronger.
In the past, they felt that Li Chengqian was the most suitable successor to Datang, but as Li Chengqian's strength became stronger and stronger, it was no longer that they thought Li Chengqian was the most suitable successor for Datang, but Li Chengqian felt that he should be the most suitable successor to Datang.
Although they all mean the same, the meaning is very different.
Moreover, Li Chengqian's development momentum is too fast, but in more than a year, he has grown from scratch to the present, and even annexed the entire Tuyuhun, which really frightened everyone.
If Li Chengqian is still a grass king who runs the Ming Dynasty in a corner of the country, they will still be happy to see it.
It is only necessary to cultivate Li Chengqian's ability to govern.
But now it's different, Li Chengqian obviously wants more than that.
What will he do next?
Next, if Li Chengqian continues to expand, if he wins the Western Turks, Xue Yantuo, and the Western Regions, at that time, the Ming Dynasty will definitely be an empire that is enough to compete with the Tang Dynasty.
It's definitely not what they want to see.
Although Li Chengqian returned to the Tang Dynasty at that time, after inheriting the Tang Dynasty, the two empires were merged into one, and the Tang Dynasty will eventually go to glory.
But it's not the same.
Well, that's why it's active and passive.
One is given by me, and the other is forced by others themselves.
It's like Li Er's throne, although Li Yuan gave way, Li Yuan still had to worry about it for so many years.
Why?
Isn't it because Li Yuan is passive?
I can give it to you, that's okay, but you can't grab it yourself when I haven't given it to you yet!
That's the reason.
Of course, there is another reason, that is, the Ming Dynasty established by Li Chengqian has nothing to do with them.
This also means that Li Chengqian's return will damage their vested interests.
Again, everyone has their own demands.
When their demands are not met, why should they support you?
Why did these people support Li Er to launch the Xuanwumen Incident in the first place?
And one or two are more anxious than Li Er, isn't it still closely related to their own interests?
Just imagine, if the person who ascended the throne and became the emperor was Li Jiancheng, would they be so glorious today?
Impossible, Li Jiancheng also has his own set of teams.
Don't talk about others, at least the eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Xuanling, I don't know where to be depressed.
Therefore, even if it is an emperor, sometimes it is impossible to do whatever he wants.
"Fang Qing is reasonable." Li Er nodded and said, "Although Gao Ming, this kid is smart, but he is still too young, and sometimes he doesn't know what other people are doing.
We still need our help to support you. ”
He also had this idea, but he couldn't say it so bluntly, otherwise it would look too ugly.
"But whether you should say it or not, Gao Ming's battle is beautiful." Although the food looked a little ugly, Li Er still said a fair word.
From the standpoint of a king on horse, Li Chengqian's battle was indeed remarkable.
Especially the control of various battlefields, it is quite accurate.
It is said that it is not difficult to win more with less, but where is it so easy to really operate?
What can be done is actually very rare.
"It does." Li Xiaogong also stood up when he heard this, stroked his beard and said, "Although the messenger just now was only a few words, the old man has obviously heard the thrilling of this big battle, and it is no exaggeration to say that even if the old man is replaced, he may not be able to do better than Gao Ming." ”
Putting aside the political perspective, if you just talk about this big war, Li Xiaogong is convinced.
"Do you want to elaborate?" Xiao Yu said when he heard this, "In just a few words, the old man is indeed a little puzzled. ”
……
It's been sunny for a while, grandma has a leg, play with me to upgrade......
The number of yang reports.
I'll start with: one!
