Chapter 121: The Li Clan of Longxi

There was a lot of discussion among the people, and there was inherent admiration in the words, but there was also disappointment that could not be concealed.

The embers of the Chu-Han War will settle, and for the elders who command and mobilize tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of troops at every turn, hundreds of cavalry sounds like child's play.

Liu Ji was overjoyed, thought about it, and laughed again, his face full of disapproval,

"Three hundred horses, I'm afraid it's not good? But I'm still too little.

In this way, when the next spring comes, I will gather you two thousand horses and let them all go across the border. โ€

He pouted again,

"Even so, it takes eleven months for a horse to give birth, and if you wait for your horse to give birth to an army, I'm afraid you will have to boil up all our bones.

Do you know, during this period of time, we have built stirrups, and if the soldiers have divine help on the horses, they can fight against a hundred, and the enemy may not be as disparity as before, hahahaha. โ€

The emperor spoke, as if Zhang Liang's attempt in Longxi was deducted from the body of a cow, irrelevant to the conclusion of the coffin, everyone present was talking about it, even Xiahou Ying, who was originally happy, had to smile, and the hall was full of a sense of depression.

Liu Fei's enthusiasm was extinguished in the head, and he was speechless at a loss, Zhang Liang lowered his head, smiled respectfully without saying anything, no longer argued, and only quietly raised his eyes to look at Liu Ji when he was unprepared, as if he had expected it.

Lu Pheasant seemed very interested, she bowed her head deeply, and said to Liu Ji warmly,

"In my opinion, three hundred horses don't sound like much value, but if you are really well-trained, with hundreds or thousands of fine horses, spears and halberds, and can ride and shoot well, it is not impossible.

Your Majesty must not forget that every time the Huns sneak attacked, they only dispatched a dozen horsemen, and they could force the border guards to be at a loss. โ€

She secretly said in her heart, you are used to fighting in the interior, and naturally you don't understand the power of the elite cavalry on the grassland like sharp knives.

As long as he is familiar with the terrain, Hou Huo, the champion a hundred years later, is sick, and he is a fledgling, and he can win the first captive with only 800 light and brave horses, which has caused a great psychological shock to the Huns.

***

Seeing that Liu Ji's face was still faint, and he still looked noncommittal, Lu Pheasant's back was cold, knowing that this was a critical moment, and if he was not careful, he would resolutely enter the misguided path of treating the Xiongnu in the early Han Dynasty in the history books, so he didn't care about anything for a while, and immediately said sharply,

"Zhu Aiqing used to be out of the pile of dead people, each with great military exploits on his back, and he knew how to fight, which is our advantage and our current disadvantage.

The way of using troops in the grassland is thousands of miles away from the Middle Earth, and His Majesty has already set the method of using razing to defeat raze, so he cannot give up halfway, and needs to implement it from beginning to end, and train a cavalry team that has never been seen in the Central Plains with the method of the Huns.

This is not destined to be a day's work, and what is emphasized is a hard work from scratch.

Even if you have a stirrup, you have to accumulate sand into a tower and slowly practice, if you always want to achieve it overnight, you will suffer a big loss in the future. โ€

She looked around, and suddenly called Liu Jing's name,

"Feng Chunjun, you are the only one among the people in the hall who has been to the Xiongnu, what do you think?"

Liu Jing was so anxious that His Royal Highness was so anxious that he was too impatient to hear Liu Ji's words, and he was hesitating whether to stand up and speak up, and when he heard the queen call his name, he no longer hesitated, took a deep breath, and said,

"In the humble opinion of the ministers, the Huns should not attack rashly.

Cultivating the real side, training the cavalry, and slowly trying to raze it is a foolproof strategy.

Your Majesty, remember not to be haste and be patient! โ€

"That's it, let's discuss this matter again, as soon as the ovary comes back, you guys will join forces to spoil my fun, it's really not good."

Liu Ji waved his hand with a smile, and said with concern,

"It's too boring, I guess I'm tired, let's do it first.

As for how much money you spent in the northwest, remember to go to Xiao He to ask for it, I will never lose you, haha. โ€

"The old minister also brought a group of good families from the six counties from Longxi, although they are all young, but they are extremely brave, your majesty doesn't see it with your own eyes?"

Zhang Liang chased after him unhurriedly, as if he didn't have any expectations.

Liu Ji rolled his eyes and said with a smile,

"I'm tired today, a group of children, how much can I do?

Since the queen is so enthusiastic, let the queen show it for me.

By the way, remember to bring Ying'er to watch it together.

He is bored with reading all day long, getting weaker and weaker, like a Taoist gentleman, not like me at all, how will he be the emperor in charge of the world in the future? โ€

***

Zhang Liang collected the sons of the good family from Longxi and Tianshui counties, and most of them were surnamed Li.

"Li is a local surname, the county is quite famous, according to legend, the ancestor of the Li family in Longxi, for the Qin period of the county guard Li Zhen."

Zhang Liang pointed to a group of half-grown young men and introduced them to Lu Pheasant.

Lu Pheasant smiled heartily, the ancestral origin of the Li family in Longxi, probably no one knows better than her.

Recalling the previous life, Tang Taizong ordered Gao Shilian and others to publish the surname and revise the "Clan Chronicles", in order to improve the family rank of the Guanlong clan in the early Tang Dynasty society where the gate lords and scholars were crowded, and seek the first place for the Li family in the Gaomen clan.

After the conscientious Gao Shilian was edicted, in line with the principle of "retreating from the new door and entering the old hope", he still listed the Shandong Shi clan as the first class, which made Taizong very dissatisfied, so he could only make it clear to Gao Shilian, so that he did not need to talk about a few generations ago, "stop taking today's officials and lords as ranks".

Gao Shilian finally understood the emperor's meaning, so he decisively promoted the Li royal family, who claimed to be after the Li clan in Longxi, to the first-class clan.

Later, after Tang Gaozong ascended the throne and abolished Wang Liwu, she persuaded Gaozong to rebuild the "Clan Chronicles" as the "Surname Record", and finally raised her Wu family to the first class.

This move is consistent with the intention of the imperial examination, which is actually to depreciate the power of the old clan and cultivate their own henchmen. As for the act of lifting the door for his mother's family, it is purely a gesture of effort.

In this regard, the gentlemen and doctors at that time were all speechless, thinking that the county prestige of the Empress Wu was not high, so as to raise the family rank and insult Sven. For a while, there were many discussions, and the government and the opposition were quite laughing and talking.

Although she was disdainful on the surface, she always had a disrespectful question in her heart, and she didn't expect that by chance, she would have the opportunity to find out today.

Lu Pheasant asked Zhang Liang with a smile,

"I don't know something, and I hope that the master will teach me.

The Li clan in Longxi is a famous family, but can it only be traced back to the county guard of the Qin period at the earliest?

Didn't they say that their ancestor was the sage Lear? โ€

***

"Poofโ€”"

Rao Zhangliang was well-informed, and he couldn't help laughing, pointing at those teenagers and saying,

"Where did you hear this ridiculous and strange talk, I'm afraid that even these Li family dolls present don't dare to boast about Haikou and cling to it like this.

At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, the world was in turmoil, Li Er rode a green ox out of Guguan, traveled all over the world, and according to legend, he died in the Qin State, but he had nothing to do with the Li family in Longxi. โ€

Sure enough, as I expected, Lu Pheasant couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth proudly, and a pair of beautiful eyes faintly showed a hint of sarcasm, as if he had returned to the competitive days of his previous life-

is also Pan Yan attached to the situation, Li Tang's family dared to climb Lao Tzu without shame, and he just raised a few ranks for his mother's family, what is there to make a fuss about.

This sullen breath that has been held for thousands of years is really properly untied.

Zhang Liang naturally didn't understand her whimsical battle of will, and continued,

"Don't talk about Li Er, just talk about the ancestor of the Li family, Li Chong, the county guard of Qin.

Since Li Chong's calculation, their Li family has been operating in the northwest border for six generations, and they have made great achievements and military achievements. โ€

"Six generations?"

Lu Pheasant pondered, a little unsure, and asked the group of teenagers with a little hesitation,

"Among the men of your Li family, there is one named Li Guang...... Children? โ€
