He looked around at the ministers, and his voice was sonorous: "Therefore, even if the Turkic species are all rebellious and there are no more animals, I will not attack after all." I will wait until it fails me, and then I will crusade. ”

When the ministers heard this, they couldn't help but praise the Heavenly Empire for its Tao and the holy virtues of the people.

After retiring from the dynasty on this day, the emperor left Pharmacist Li behind.

He followed Li Shimin out of the Hall of Virtue, crossed the street, and entered the main gate of Li.

As soon as he stepped into the front court of the Yan Dynasty, Li Shimin immediately stopped, turned to Pharmacist Li and said, "My brother is looking at his nose and nose and heart today, and he seems to be unable to speak!" ”

Pharmacist Li had to bow down and thank: "The minister doesn't dare!" ”

He deeply understands that the Liang division has not yet been destroyed, the bows and knives are not yet complete, and the horses are not yet strong, so the time is not yet ripe to attack the Turks.

Li Shimin sighed lightly, turned around and continued to move forward.

However, he did not enter the Lizheng Palace, but walked west into the Yiqiu Palace.

Pharmacist Li entered the palace with the emperor, only to see that the furnishings here were different from the past.

In the center of the hall is a large plate full of corn.

Li Shimin said with a smile: "My brother still remembers that when we were in the eastern capital, you and I were stationed in the west of Luoyang City. My brother has accumulated dust on the case and painted the situation between the enemy and us? ”

Pharmacist Li bowed down and smiled: "Where is the history as it is now!" ”

Li Shimin pointed to the huge rice plate and said with a smile: "Now, you and I can take this as a case." ”

Since Ma Yuan was the Eastern Han Dynasty Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu's "gathering rice for the valley and drawing the situation", in the past 600 years, rice plate deduction has been a common thing in soldiers.

However, this rice plate in Yiqiu Palace is very different from the ordinary.

In addition to its special size, there is a meandering stream of the Hetao situation on the case, which is not in the northwest of Mipan, but in the south.

At first sight, Pharmacist Li knew that the emperor intended to discuss the Turkic situation.

He knew very well that in the face of the Turks, Li Shimin had a lot of pain in his heart.

First of all, at the beginning of the Taiyuan Incident, Li Yuan had been a vassal to the Turks, and this matter was by no means suitable for touching at this time.

Secondly, Li Shimin rejected the ministers' proposal to attack the Turks several times, all because the Tang Dynasty's war preparations were not yet perfect, so it was not beneficial to talk about it at this time.

Third, the Liang division was still under the aid of the Turks, and they were in Sheng, Xia and Erzhou.

Fourth, Yang Zhengdao, the grandson of Yang Guang, also established a puppet regime with the support of the Turks.

Fifth, Li Shimin originally agreed to make peace with the Western Turkic Yehu Khan, but due to Jieli's obstruction, it could not come true.

The latter three are all related to the strategy of "dividing and dividing" and "long-distance and close attack".

So at this time, Pharmacist Li bowed down to receive the order and strode forward.

There is a tube on the side of the rice plate, and a small flag is stored in the tube.

He took out a small flag and said: "More than 40 years ago, after the Turkic division was divided, the Eastern Turks and the Great Sui were neighbors.

The Khan of Qimin relied on Yang Sui's secret help, lived in the moraine, and contended with the Western Turks. As he spoke, he planted a small flag in the southwest of Erenhot, Inner Mongolia today.

In the middle of the desert, there are Yin Mountains across the east and west, separating the Gobi into two parts, the south of the desert and the north of the desert, and the moraine mouth is an important passage between the two.

Li Shimin bowed his head slightly and signaled to continue.

After Qimin, his three sons succeeded him, and he was the first to finish, to deal with Luo, and to make profits. It's just that the beginning and the end are not eternal, and the sons left behind are young enough to be in charge alone, so they have succeeded brothers twice. Now that Jieli has been in power for eight years, the sons of Shibi and Chuluo have gradually grown up, and each has its own department. ”

"The territory set up by the eldest son of Shibi is in the east, and it is for the Turki Khan; The territory of the second son, Desire, was in the north. The eldest son of Chu Luo, Yu She, was located in the south; The second son, Tuo, was also in the north. ”

As he spoke, Pharmacist Li planted four small flags on the three sides of the first small flag.

Among them, the extension is Ashina Sheer.

"Qimin has another younger brother, Sha Bo Luoshe, whose territory is in the west. There were also three young sons, of whom Ngisharith and Bulisheth were also in the south, and Yantuosheh was in the north. As he spoke, he added four more flags to the three sides of the first flag.

Among them, the sand bowl is Ashina Suni loss.

At this time, in the rice plate, around the central small flag, there are a total of eight small flags, one each in the east and west, and three in the south and north.

Pharmacist Li put the remaining small flag in his hand back into the cylinder, pointed to the rice plate and said: "Now there are eight sets in all directions, and none of them are his descendants!" ”

Hearing this, Li Shimin clapped his hands and praised: "My brother's words, looking at the Turkic cave is like watching the fire!" ”

Pharmacist Li hurriedly thanked him.

Li Shimin nodded and said, "The new Turkic Khans must probably be at least eighteen years old. When Jieli succeeded to the throne, Nibu was already seventeen, close to the age of standing. At that time, there must have been a Shibi line who wanted to support Nibushi, so Jieli had to make him the Khan of Tuli. ”

Pharmacist Li said, "Yes." At the time of the early establishment of Jieli, Yu shot at the age of fourteen. Two years ago, he was twenty years old, and he had to do something to establish his authority among the ministries. Chuluo Khan once made great efforts to pass through the Hetao area, so at that time, Yu set up a river crossing into the Hetao. ”

At this point, the small flags on the rice plate are all outside the loop.

At this time, although Pharmacist Li did not move the small flag of Yu Shooting to the Hetao, he only made a finger mark on the rice plate, which made Li Shimin quite shocked, and said: "Not only Yu Shooting, but now the Desire Valley Set, Tuo Set, Qiji Set, Buli Set, and Yantuo Set are all twenty years old. As he spoke, he pointed to the small flags on the rice plate one by one.

Pharmacist Li said, "Yes." The younger generation of the Turkic tribes has gradually come to power, and if they work together, it will indeed be a great disaster for our country. However, the current situation is not the case! ”

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Yes." Two years ago, Jieli and Tuli had already had a problem with them, and they were also wary of the Ministry. Therefore, once he got the Chinese Zhao Deyan, he immediately favored him. Zhao Deyan pampered power, changed the old Turkic customs, and superimposed harsh government decrees, causing resentment among his people. As a result, the Ministries and Jieli became more estranged, and it also made Jieli jealous of the Ministries, but instead trusted Zhuhu. All kinds of mutual cause and effect, suspicion and jealousy are getting worse and worse! ”

Pharmacist Li bowed and said, "Yes." If Jieli is strong and strong, it will be fine. Now that the cold has caused a disaster, and the internal and external uses are in scarcity, he must increase the accumulation of all departments. This made it even more difficult for the tribes to survive, so they had to defect! ”

At this time, he walked to the other side of the rice plate and took out a small flag of a different color from the previous one from the other small tube.

First insert a few faces in the north: "To the north of the moraine, there are fifteen Tiele, with Xue Yantuo and Hui as the flourishing, and they are between the Eastern and Western Turks. He also inserted a few faces to the east: "In the east of the Turks, there are Xi, Xia, Khitan, Muwei, and Ya tribes. ”

Further to the west, there are several sides: "There are Western Turks in the west, and Tuyuhun, Gaochang, Zhengbin, and Yehu in the southwest." ”

At this time, Li Shimin smiled and said: "My brother's intention is that those who are divided and separated from each other internally, and who are far away from it and cannot be attacked externally, can benefit from each other?" ”
