More than 200 miles northeast of Chang'an, Changchun Palace.

Li Shimin opened his eyes in the dormitory, and there was a book beside him, two copies of the books that Chu Zhen had printed and given to him, plus three large packages of various seeds.

He groaned for a long time.

Quite undecided.

Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Eldest Sun Wuji and others are all in Chang'an, and only Liu Wenjing is left to be slightly credible.

"Your Highness."

Liu Wenjing came to answer the call, bowed to him, and couldn't wait to ask, "We will send troops to Luoyang tomorrow?" ”

Li Yuan had sent an edict in Chang'an, allowing them to coerce Wang Shichong, rush to Li Mi's aid, and act cheaply.

"Mr. Liu doesn't need to be in a hurry."

Li Shimin smiled slightly.

Now Liu Wenjing is white, although no one dares to despise him, but he is also eager to make meritorious service and be reinstated, especially when Pei Lin is now the prime minister in Chang'an.

In the past month and a half, Li Shimin has heard him complain many times.

"Binggui is fast, this is what you said yourself when you beat Chang'an!" Liu Wenjing laughed.

Li Shimin smiled, handed him a printed book, and motioned for him to read it first.

Liu Wenjing took a look at it, and was suddenly surprised, and then looked at the back, and felt even more shocked, looking up in extreme surprise at His Royal Highness the King of Qin, who was not yet twenty years old, but was already in military power.

"How is the map drawn by Mr. Chu?"

Li Shimin asked with a smile.

"Mr. Chu painted it?"

Liu Wenjing carefully looked at these maps, from Chang'an to Changchun Palace, and then from Changchun Palace to Luoyang, more than 20 maps, drawing the terrain around Luoyang extremely clearly.

Although some of the place names are strange and the rivers seem to run in different directions, they still have the subtlety of them, far more detailed than the maps used in the army.

"It turned out that the prince deceived me and waited!"

Liu Wenjing suddenly gritted her teeth and scolded: "I said why was the map of the army so detailed when I fought Xue Ju that day, I thought that there were such talents in the prince's mansion, but it turned out to be from Erlang!" ”

As soon as Li Shimin wanted to speak, Liu Wenjing arched his hand at him and said, "Does King Qin know Shi Xuan and Shi Tao of Zhao State three hundred years ago?" ”

Li Shimin's face sank, and he shouted:

"My father is not Shi Hu, my brother is not Shi Xuan, and I am not that Shi Tao!"

"But Shi Tao is the Duke of Qin, and Shi Xuan is also the prince!"

Liu Wenjing lowered his voice, saw that King Qin's face was silent, and after a long time, he arched his hand and said: "There is Shi Zhao in front and Sui Yang in the back, although King Qin is benevolent and righteous, he has to guard against it!" ”

Li Shimin was silent for a long time.

When Jinyang raised the army, the father, son and brother worked together to conspire for great things.

Now that Chang'an is played, his father ascends the throne, his brother is the crown prince, and the fourth brother sits in Jinyang......

"Don't say such things again, let alone mention them to others." Li Shimin looked at Liu Wenjing and said slowly: "Otherwise, I will ask my father to punish you." ”

"I only dare to say such things to King Qin."

Liu Wenjing made a long bow, stopped mentioning the matter, and turned to talking about the map, curiously asking how Mr. Chu had drawn such a detailed map.

Li Shimin said with a smile: "Mr. Chu has all kinds of magical methods, these are just some slight tricks, come, I'll show you a package of better things!" ”

"Better?"

Liu Wenjing watched King Qin move out two bags of things with his own eyes.

"These are called potatoes, you go find someone to plant them."

"Erlang, it's September now!!"

"It's only planted in September, and the harvest is in December, you have seen this potato first, make sure you haven't seen it before!"

“……”

Liu Wenjing finished reading it, listened to it, and also got the book on how to grow potatoes, and when she saw the words in it, she could barely understand it even with the help of King Qin.

But the doubts in my heart are even greater.

"Erlang, this Mr. Chu ......"

"Mr. Chu is now making tea in Longxi, and he said that I can just do it, and when the potatoes and these grains and vegetables grow, I will naturally know."

Mr. Chu didn't ask King Qin to do it, but asked him to do it, don't ask.

Liu Wenjing could only sigh and said, "Later, I will go find a few farmers and let them plant in the field." ”

"No, I want Mr. Liu to take care of it himself."

"Me?"

"Not bad."

Li Shimin said: "This time I led the troops to Luoyang, and it is estimated that I can only relieve the siege of Wujiaoguan, and there are not many opportunities for meritorious service. Mr. Chu analyzed the situation in the world for me, and believed that Liu Wuzhou would soon raise an army to the south. ”

Liu Wenjing reacted quickly: "Erlang wants me to go to Jinyang to assist King Qi in defending the city?" ”

Li Shimin nodded and asked him, "What do you think?" Liu Wuzhou now has the help of the Turks, and the rebel army Song Jingang has tens of thousands of horses, and the momentum is very great, and it is only in the morning and night to go south. ”

Liu Wenjing hesitated.

If he chooses to go to Jinyang, King Qin will let him stay in Changchun Palace, plant the potatoes first, and wait for Li Yuan of Chang'an to reply, and then he will go to Jinyang.

But if it is......

"Jiro."

Liu Wenjing looked at him suspiciously, "Should you take advantage of my absence again to knock Luoyang down?" ”

"Hahaha!"

Li Shimin laughed, "Unless Wang Shichong opens the city gate and surrenders, my 30,000 soldiers will not be able to defeat Luoyang." ”

Liu Wenjing was relieved and chose to go to Jinyang.

"Okay, I'll write a letter back to Chang'an immediately, Mr. Liu, you go to the peasants, plant potatoes near Changchun Palace, and let the guards of the palace city patrol every day."

"Obey the order of King Qin."

Liu Wenjing arched his hand and went out.

Walking on the road, he was still thinking about what had just happened.

Suddenly it occurred to me that King Qin said that he was not Qin Gong Shi Tao, was he also saying that he would not sit still?

……

On the second day, the point will be.

More than 10,000 soldiers stationed in Changchun Palace came out of the camp and gathered in front of the palace gate, looking up at Li Shimin, Liu Wenjing and others, the king of Qin, on the high platform.

Among the soldiers, in the forefront are 3,000 elite cavalry, all wearing armor, equipped with longbows, spears, and ring-headed knives, which are elite knights who were selected from the more than 10,000 cavalry in Longxi after the King of Qin beat Xue Ju, and then selected 2,000 people from the Tang Army.

In the first battle of Longxi, His Royal Highness the King of Qin of the Tang State fought beautifully, as a defeated army, many Longxi cavalry obeyed him, and this trip to Luoyang was their first battle with the King of Qin.

Five guinea sheep were pulled to a high platform and slaughtered as a sacrifice to heaven and earth.

Liu Wenjing recited the sacrificial text, and on behalf of the emperor Li Yuan, he told Shangcang about the Tang army's expedition to Luoyang, and scolded Wang Shichong for his abuse of power and domineering in the sacrificial text, accusing the former Sui Yang Guang of being cruel and unkind, and pointing the spearhead directly at Yang Tong, the king of Yue in Luoyang.

At the end of the ceremony, Li Shimin sat on a high chair and began to order.

"Order Chu Liang to be the chief of the marching army and be in charge of the affairs of the camp!"

"Chen Chu Liang took the order."

Like Zhai Changsun, Chu Liang, who had just returned to Li Tang from Xue Qin, was appointed by Li Shimin as the marching chief, which was originally Liu Wenjing's position.

"Order Zhang Shigui to be the head of the Ma Army!"

"Order Zhai Changsun to be the head of the three armies on the left!"

"Ordered Li Mengwei, Zheng Rentai, Duan Zhixuan, and Hou Junji to ...... respectively"

"Order Li Jing and Lu Shiheng to be the general of the guard."

After Li Shimin finished ordering, all the soldiers knelt down on one knee to receive the order, and finally Li Shimin ordered again: "Tomorrow will start at the end of the day, and the troops will be sent at the end of the day, and the armies must not make mistakes!" ”

The soldiers surrendered their promises and led the soldiers back to the camp in order.

Liu Wenjing stood on the high platform, looked at the back of King Qin returning to the palace, and then looked at the generals.

All of them are from the Qin Palace, and there is no prince Li Jiancheng and Li Yuan's generals.

Even the soldiers such as Zhai Changsun, who had just surrendered, were also convinced by King Qin and were willing to follow him to fight.

"How can King Qin be compared to Yang Guang?"

Liu Wenjing decided to help King Qin.

When he came to the farmland he had chosen yesterday, he told the peasants: "Remember, this is the potato that the King of Qin got from Mr. Chu, take care of it, plant it in September and harvest it in December...... There are also these medical books, the new method of roasting tea, and King Qin has even thought about how to deliver your daughter-in-law! ”

After finishing the work in the field, he went to the army doctor in the camp and instructed them to learn the new bandaging method promoted by King Qin, the barefoot ulcer medical scriptures, and the barefoot Qianjin prescription.
