Li Shimin's killing of his brother and his brother, and the fact that he did not let go of even the ten children of the two of them, made countless people feel cold.

They couldn't help but murmur in their hearts: "Is such a cold-blooded emperor really good to the people and the heroes?" ”

But in the end, it turned out that Li Shimin did treat the heroes and the people well, and he has actually been tormented by his conscience.

[Because Li Shimin's position was not right, the scribe class dominated by Confucianism had many remarks about it, so they actually did not really submit to Li Shimin for a long time.

At the same time, there are also many officials from the previous dynasty, and they are not very recognized by the arrival of the Tang Dynasty, so it is not smooth sailing in the court. 】

[Finally, due to years of war, the land of China was devastated, and the national strength was extremely weak, so the early days of the Tang Dynasty were actually very difficult. 】

The tears in Li Shimin's eyes had not been completely wiped away, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but murmur in his mouth: "Su Shangshen, understand me."

[There were many internal problems in the early Tang Dynasty, but the external threat was even more deadly! 】

[When the Tang Dynasty was just established, tribal states such as Beidi and Nanban continued to harass and even annex the borders of the Tang Dynasty, which also greatly endangered the territorial security of the Tang Dynasty.

In addition, under the rule of Songtsen Gampo at that time, the country was rich and the people were strong, and Vientiane was renewed, while the Tang Dynasty was poor and weak, so the excessive development of Tubo was also a great hidden danger for the Tang Dynasty. 】

[And in this very unfavorable situation of external and internal troubles and surrounded by a harsh environment, Li Shimin relied on his excellent military leadership, political talent and broad mind to open up a new era! 】

When the video was played, the music suddenly became high-pitched.

[It is undeniable that Li Shimin has his own flaws, but he can belong to hundreds of emperors in China, who can be a flawless existence? 】

[They are also human beings, and if they are human beings, they will make mistakes.] 】

[As long as he knows his mistakes and can change them, he is ashamed and brave, he is worthy of the title of "Mingjun". 】

[After Li Shimin succeeded to the throne, he humbly listened to the opinions of good ministers, and selected and appointed many outstanding officials who were good at governing the country and the people.

[He ruled the world with culture, practiced frugality, and recuperated with the people. 】

[He persuaded the farmers to teach mulberry, really set an example, and worked in the field with the eldest grandson queen, which won the recognition of the people, and agriculture made great progress, and compared with other dynasties, it passed the drought and flood years relatively smoothly. 】

[Next, let's take a look at the specific military exploits and political achievements of Tang Taizong Li Shimin. 】

[In addition to the previously mentioned "four wars to destroy five princes", Tang Taizong Li Shimin also launched four border wars, destroying two countries, subduing one country, and defeating one country! ] 】

Liu Bang smiled dumbly and said, "Did this guy beat up all the neighbors around him once?" Is he a war maniac? ”

Ying Zheng praised Li Shimin's behavior very much: "If I am in China, I will have to conquer the world!" If anyone refuses, beat him until he kneels and begs for mercy! If you don't beg for mercy, then there's no need for it to exist."

Liu Che couldn't help but shake his head after seeing it, and sighed: "I haven't completely solved even a single Xiongnu, he actually overturned four countries"

"It is worthy of the man in my heart, I swear, I must actively prepare the military force, and my Great Song Dynasty can't be cowardly in their mouths!" Zhao Kuangyin secretly swore.

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and said: "If the people's livelihood problem is not crooked, my Daming should not be weaker than Datang, we have to study hard." ”

Zhu Di's eyes lit up, he clenched his fists, and said, "I, Zhu Di, will definitely not lose to any emperor!" ”

[In the fourth year of Zhenguan, Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, launched a war of attack and annihilation against the Eastern Turks in order to eliminate the threat from the north. 】

Li Shimin raised his head abruptly and said in surprise: "Zhenguan for four years? Isn't that this year??? ”

And in Li Shimin's world, countless ministers and soldiers also began to discuss.

"Your Majesty is going to use troops against the Turks this year? What a surprise! ”

"You didn't even think of it, and the Turks couldn't even think of it! Your Majesty's trick to take advantage of your illness to kill you, clever! ”

"If that's the case, that's great! I want to save my life and join the army, and I want to avenge my family!! ”

"The war is together, I don't know how many Tang men have died on the battlefield, the old man thinks he should be cautious."

"Humph! Without strong force, without the blood of the Tang Dynasty boys, how can there be a chance for them to hum and chirp here? ”

“.”

[The Turks have always been active in the northern Mongolian Plateau and Central Asia, and they split into two branches, the Eastern Turks and the Western Turks, during the Sui Dynasty. The Eastern Turkic forces were relatively strong militarily, and they also caused a lot of trouble for the Sui Dynasty at that time. 】

[Interestingly, when Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty was besieged by the Turks, it was the sixteen-year-old Li Shimin who plotted to solve the danger of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty being trapped! But in the end, it was Li Shimin who persuaded Li Yuan to raise troops and overthrow the rule of the Sui Dynasty. 】

[At the end of the Sui Dynasty and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the Turks were already very strong.

The Khitan, Murwei, Tuyuhun, Gaochang and other ethnic minorities also submitted to the powerful Turks.

When Li Yuan raised his army, he was worried that the Turks would make trouble behind his back, so he personally wrote a letter to make friends with the Turks.

Later, Li Yuan seized power in the Sui Dynasty and established the Tang Dynasty, and the Eastern Turkic Khan helped Li Tang with merit, and harassed the Tang Dynasty border and detained the Tang envoys when he had nothing to do. After talking about peace several times, the Eastern Turks broke their promises several times, anyway, if they had something to do, they wanted to bully the Tang Dynasty, so as to show their big brother's style, but the Tang Dynasty in the Li Yuan period only dared to be angry and did not dare to speak out. 】

[After Tang Taizong Li Shimin succeeded to the throne, on the one hand, he gave the people in China a recuperation and restored national strength; On the other hand, it was also training soldiers to strengthen the military power of the Tang Dynasty. 】

[After the national strength was restored, Li Shimin began to use small troops to eliminate some ethnic minorities dependent on the Turks; At the same time, he was also secretly supporting Xue Yantuo and other ethnic minorities to isolate the Eastern Turks. 】

[Due to the cutting off of their wings, coupled with the heavy snowfall in the Eastern Turkic region for many years, natural and man-made disasters continued, and their strength was greatly weakened.

[As soon as Tang Taizong Li Shimin saw that the time had come, he immediately ordered Li Jing, the secretary of the military department, to lead the Sixth Route Army with a total of more than 100,000 soldiers and march into the Turks! 】

[Li Jing's army has been destroying all the way and marching forward! ]

Wherever the army went, the steppe tribes surrendered one after another, and the Eastern Turkic Jieli Khan could not resist it, so he had no choice but to retreat north.

Li Jing later led 10,000 elite cavalry, day and night, to pursue the Turks, killing 10,000 people, subduing 100,000 Turkic people, hundreds of thousands of livestock, and successfully capturing the Eastern Turkic Jieli Khan.

At this point, the Eastern Turks perished. 】

"Quick! Take note of it!! Fang Xuanling immediately said to the officials around him: "Write down these details, and at the same time send more people to block the news, not a single fly is allowed to be released from Taishan County!" ”

"Obey !!"

After making these arrangements, Fang Xuanling couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, "It's good that the arrangements were made in advance, otherwise the information in the oracle would leak out, and the consequences would be unimaginable!" ”

As soon as they heard that Li Jing had exterminated the Eastern Turks, countless people's minds came alive, after all, this is equivalent to a war exploit for nothing!

"Hahahaha! Last winter, there was a heavy snowfall on the grassland, and countless cattle and sheep froze to death, and I was still thinking about whether to suggest to His Majesty yesterday to take the opportunity to go on a northern expedition. ”

"Lao Cheng, your skin is still as thick as it was at the beginning. cough cough cough" Qin Qiong teased Cheng Biting Jin, but couldn't help but start coughing, "It's a pity that my body can't go to the battlefield anymore." ”

"Thanks for the compliment!" Cheng Yanjin patted Qin Shubao's back to help him calm down, and replied: "Uncle Bao, don't worry, my old Cheng earned your share of military exploits for you!" ”

"And my old cow!"
