Chapter 169: National Mobilization
"What the hell does this little rabbit have in mind, bring it to me."
When Li Shimin talked about Li Xiang, there was light in his eyes, and all the people in this scene also saw it, if nothing goes wrong, Li Xiang is now the closest person to that position, you must know that this kid is only fourteen years old now, and his future is limitless.
The most important thing is that not only Li Shimin thinks so, but the other ministers also want to know what is written in this letter, and they unconsciously have an idea, that is, the idea of His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun is wild, which is extremely beneficial to my Tang Dynasty every time, and can bring us some freshness.
"This kid, he really counted all the people into it, and he didn't know how this brain grew when he was young, but fortunately he was my own grandson, otherwise I would have ordered him to be locked up."
After Li Shimin read the above content, he immediately handed over the letter to Fang Xuanling, because the eldest grandson Wuji was in charge of the country's fine work in the past, so Li Xiang sent the letter to the eldest grandson Wuji.
"The emperor has indeed found the right person to put His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun in charge of the Imperial City Division, although His Royal Highness the Eldest Sun has not given any guidance to the work of the Imperial City Division, but based on some of the contents of this letter alone, I conclude that he will definitely be able to do well in the future."
After Fang Xuanling said this, these people present were even more surprised, you must know that Fang Xuanling, an old man, is different from others, no matter how noble your identity is, even the former prince Li Chengqian Fang Xuanling will not praise you with a conscience, if you have ability, you have ability, if you can't bear it, you will stay away, this temper is also admired by Li Shimin, at this moment, you can praise Li Xiang in such language, it is indeed a record.
The others hurriedly took Li Xiang's letter and saw what was written on it.
The main content is that during the negotiations, I hope that the imperial court will make some assistance, first of all, to conduct a survey of the government soldiers throughout the country, count the number of government soldiers in various places, and strengthen the training of government soldiers in various places.
All in all, it is necessary to make a gesture, that is, the Tang Dynasty is about to use troops abroad, and the scale of foreign soldiers is not small, otherwise there is no need to conduct an inventory of the soldiers across the country, and at the same time, it is necessary to find out a few moths, especially those who drink the blood of soldiers, and directly kill them.
The second is to carry out a whole training of the troops around Chang'an City, whether it is the emperor's pro-army or the ordinary city guards, they must conduct high-intensity training outside the city for half a month, and they must let the people of the entire Chang'an City know that they may soon be transferred to the southwest front line and fully capture Tuyuhun.
The third is to conduct a census of the granaries of the whole country, thoroughly check how much grain is still in stock, and order a large number of wagons in various localities to spread the news that all the grain will be transferred to the southwestern front.
At the same time, it is necessary to spread rumors in the Jiangnan area, and the tax of the imperial court will be increased by two percent next year, in order to fight this big battle.
Above the court, generals at all levels should speak freely, formulate various strategies against Tuyuhun, and exchange letters frequently with the front-line generals, so that everyone can know at a glance that the court is determined to destroy Tuyuhun, even if negotiations are now underway, but the original intention of the court has not changed.
The last one is that the imperial court should issue a mobilization order, and all men of appropriate age should be prepared, although the imperial court has not yet conscripted soldiers, but all men of appropriate age should also be informed of this matter, and they may be conscripted into the army at any time.
"What do you think of what this stinky boy said?"
When Li Shimin spoke, everyone could see it very clearly, the emperor was clearly showing off, your grandson is indeed very good, but there is no need to be so fluttering, right?
All the ministers nodded, although they were not convinced, but they turned over their children and grandchildren, I am afraid that they could not find a person who could compete with Li Xiang, from the original Pinggao Lice to the later Southwest War, plus this letter, in all aspects, this kid has indeed outperformed many people.
"Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor."
It's all here, what else can you say? can only honestly bow down to the emperor and say hello, although no one said that Li Xiang is a suitable successor, but do you still need to say this? Everyone is like a human spirit, and they already know it in their hearts at this moment, don't you see that the emperor's mouth is about to crack when he laughs?
"Pass the decree and let Li Xiang be the deputy envoy of the negotiation this time, and wait until the negotiation is successful."
As soon as Li Shimin finished speaking, there was a deathly silence in the scene, so that Li Xiang didn't care as the deputy envoy of the negotiation, after all, as long as the negotiation began, many people could put on a name, which is also a method often used by the imperial court, after all, the cake has to make everyone get some benefits, not to mention the emperor's eldest grandson, it is nothing to share the credit, but if it is for the emperor, this is a big statement.
It is said that if the two countries conclude a treaty, it should be the emperor himself to use the seal, but it is impossible for the emperor to come to the front in person, so he will send the crown prince, or other important members of the royal family, the emperor and grandson are obviously a little deficient at this time, after all, it is one level lower.
What's more, there is still a prince on the front line at this moment, although he is ranked ninth, but he is also the eldest grandson of the queen, if you talk about qualifications, he is indeed more qualified than Li Xiang, although Li Xiang is the eldest grandson of the emperor, but not the grandson of the emperor.
Everyone is a little sympathetic to Li Zhi, the king of Jin at the moment, obviously he is the prince of the imperial court and the eldest grandson of the queen, this time he went out with the army like Li Xiang, and there was no splash before and after, as if he didn't participate.
That's all, when it came to the final negotiations, there was not even a deputy envoy for negotiations, and I didn't give you a chance to get credit, the most important thing is that when the emperor used the seal in the end, it didn't have anything to do with you, what are you doing on the front line?
"You all go back, I've been busy here for a day today, and the yamen at all levels will step up their deployment after they go back, and it's best to let their meticulous work see tomorrow that we are going to fight Tuyuhun to the end."
Li Shimin also knows that this matter must be fast, if there is no speed, then there will be no way to support the front line, these people present are also some practical people, they will leave the emperor at the moment, and they must be arranged immediately after they go back, and they must make the entire Tang Dynasty move within one day, so that Tuyuhun's meticulous workers can see clearly that we have to fight a big battle.
