The way to advance and retreat 3

More than 100 years later, Liu Zongyuan planted this tree and endowed it with the poem "Planting Lingshou Wood":

Competing in the calyx. Shu Ying outside the room.

Soft strips are reversed. Jinjie is often the opposite.

Forget the tiredness of playing. Feel a little light.

Ann Neng thing shearing. Possession of capital apprenticeship.

Now that Pharmacist Li has obtained such a spiritual longevity staff, he is naturally deeply grateful.

After the envoy was ordered to send the Lingshou staff, he reported to the emperor, and the acting prince was clear and clear, and he walked without worry.

Li Shimin was overjoyed and immediately summoned him.

After the discussion of the monarch and the ministers, the emperor immediately issued an edict:

Pharmacist Li was the general manager of the Xikaidao march, and he controlled the armies

Hou Junji, the secretary of the military department, was the head of the march on Jishi Road

The secretary of the criminal department appointed Li Daozong, the king of the city, as the head of the march of Shanzhou Road

Li Daliang, the governor of Liangzhou, was the head of the march of Hedong Road

Li Daoyan, the governor of Minzhou, was the head of the Chishui Road march

Lizhou Thorn Shi Gao was born as the head of the Shiozawa Road march

The positions of these six marches are sorted from north to south: "West Sea" is the ancient name of Qinghai Lake; "Shanzhou" is today's Xining, Qinghai.

"Jishi" is a stone mountain, and at that time there was a difference between a large stone mountain and a small stone mountain.

The big stone mountain is today's Anima Qing Mountain, the small stone mountain in the Tang Dynasty is the boundary mountain of Shanzhou and Hezhou, and the task of Hou Junji in the early days is in the small stone mountain.

"Hedong" here refers to the east of the source of the upper reaches of the Yellow River.

Li Daoyan was the eldest son of Li Shentong, who took over as governor of Minzhou after Liu Shili was deposed for his involvement in Luo Yi.

Minzhou is today's Lintao in Gansu, Tuyuhun once entered the Kou, and Li Daoyan knocked it away.

"Chishui" is today's Qaidam River.

Gao Yongsheng was born in the Tiance Mansion of King Qin, and at this time, he was the head of the march along with the six Shangshu and the governor of Dazhou, which shows that the emperor appreciated him very much and intended to cultivate.

Lizhou is located on the bank of the Chongqing River, which is today's Guangyuan in Sichuan on the bank of the Jialing River.

There are many salt lakes in Tuyuhun, and "Yanze" here refers to the Chaka Salt Lake in Qinghai today.

Just like the Six Roads march against the Turks five years ago, Wei Xiaojie and Xue Wanshu's Eastern Second Army, the main task is to contain the enemy's foreign aid; The main task of the Sixth Road March, Li Daoyan and Gao Yongsheng's Southern Second Army, was also to contain the enemy's foreign aid.

At the beginning of this year, Li Shimin appointed Li Yaoshi as the ambassador of Jinai Province and Li Daliang as the ambassador of Jiannan Province, and went to Bashu Province to inspect the province, and he had not yet returned to Beijing at this time.

Therefore, at that time, among the commanders of the marching army of the Dao, only Hou Junji and Li Daozong were in Chang'an.

Pharmacist Li summoned the two of them as the chief administrator and said, "Your Majesty has ordered me to teach you the art of war, and it has been many years now.

And I can't teach a single person who can entrust His Majesty with a heavy responsibility, and I am really a saint.

Therefore, after retiring, now I have to come back, and I am honestly the fault of one person. ”

Hearing these words in Li Daozong's ears, it was as comfortable as an initiation.

Two and a half years ago, when he traveled to Panxi with Pharmacist Li, he called him "teacher", but Pharmacist Li refused to agree.

At this time, between the words, it is obvious that he also treats him as a student.

Second, although he was close to Li Shimin in private, he was not a descendant of Tiance Mansion, and it was okay to be excluded, and two years ago, he was hit hard by Wei Chi Jingde in front of the emperor and his ministers, so that he was in danger of squinting, so that he was not angry for a long time.

Now Pharmacist Li's words, although they are words to the two of them, but the meaning of blame is actually only Hou Junji.

So after Pharmacist Li finished speaking, Li Daozong immediately bowed down and thanked: "The student is dull, and he can't bear the teacher's teachings, which has disappointed His Majesty, and he is ashamed and regretful!" ”

Five years ago, Li Yaoshi led the Six Dao Army to attack the Turks, and was the secretary of the military department at that time.

The current military department is Hou Junji, but this year, he has conquered Tuyuhun twice, and the emperor has not taken him as the main commander.

No matter how exaggerated Hou Jun's temperament is, he can't help but be deeply aware that his weight in the emperor's mind has its limitations.

So at this time, he could only bow down with Li Daozong and thank him.

Pharmacist Li sighed lightly and said solemnly: "My old man, I only hope that in my lifetime, I can see that you are enough to be alone, so that you can be worthy of Your Majesty and the Tang Dynasty!" ”

At this time, he stared at the two of them: "Therefore, I will do my best to let you command the overall situation, and I just hope that you will not let me down." He paused, and his tone became more and more serious: "What's more, don't disappoint Your Majesty, don't disappoint Datang!" ”

The two of them bowed down again and said yes.

Pharmacist Li's expression eased slightly, and he said, "Now the grain is still gathering. You two can take this opportunity to list the strategies for Tuguhun to be seen. ”

The two of them bowed down to receive the command.

By the time Pharmacist Li sorted out the strategy drawn up by the two of them, plus his own commentary, and entered the palace with the Lingshou staff, it was already the first month of the ninth year of Zhenguan.

Hou Junji and Li Daozong's expressions, whether they bow to the book or not, are all in good letters.

And the commentary added by Pharmacist Li turned out to be Erwang Xingcao!

More than 500 years later, Lu You has a poem "Viewing the Great Scattered Guantu with Feelings".

If Li Shimin had read his poems, he might sigh when he read this recital: "'Get on the horse and hit the crazy Hu, and get off the horse to write the army...... Energetic Zhong Yishi, can be a strong picture together." Si is also called! ”

What a pity! At the moment of Lu Youfu's poems, his heart is full of envy and longing, but it is exactly "the teacher binds the Khan, and the capital is captured; Shangshou Da'an Palace, as if it were at the beginning of the view"!

Although Li Shimin had never read the poems of later generations, he watched Pharmacist Li's play, but what he focused on was the brilliant and strange grass.

After reading it for a while, he sighed: "My brother's book is enough to change for a goose!" ”

Pharmacist Li naturally hurriedly thanked him, and even said "I don't dare".

Li Shimin said with a straight face: "Back then, all the generals wanted to plunder the house of Xiao Liang and his nobles to reward the soldiers, but my brother could not do it.

It's just that as early as in the "Ten Strategies of Tu Xiao Milling", my brother has already discussed: "Once our army takes Xiao Liang, the subjects of Xiao Milling today will be the subjects of my Tang Dynasty."

Jiang Han is so big that it can be said that they all bow down.

The ancients said, "Literature can possess the people, and martial arts can threaten the enemy." My brother deserves it! ”

"Wen can attach to the public, and Wu can threaten the enemy" from the "Historical Records. The Biography of Sima Sui Tho.

After pacifying the Turks, Li Yaoshi was reprimanded by the emperor for "the army has no discipline, resulting in the capture of strange treasures and scattered in the hands of the rebellious soldiers".

Later, although Li Shimin once said, "I have realized this matter before", but this time, it is the first time that the Son of Heaven has mentioned the past events such as "only my brother is the one who cannot plunder Xiao Liang".

However, Pharmacist Li knew very well in his heart that the emperor had other intentions when he mentioned this matter at this time, so after humbly thanking him, he said eloquently:

"Your Majesty, back then, Han Guangwu calmed his red eyebrows, and then entered his camp to slowly walk. The reputation of "putting the heart in the belly" has been passed on to future generations. Is this a thoughtless act? It's because I knew in advance that human affection is not evil. ”
