Chang'an, Taiji Palace!

A war report was sent to the government office.

"In terms of military spending, the consumption is not significant at the moment."

The eldest grandson Wuji held the battle report in his hand,

"Duan Zhixuan used a quick and quick way to fight, and he broke through the Tuyuhun tribe all the way, and the progress was very fast."

"Judging from the battle record, it can be said that the momentum is like a bamboo, and the army will soon be in Tuyuhun King City."

Li Shimin stroked his beard, but there was not much joy on his face.

Yes, only calm.

After all, in terms of the current combat effectiveness of the Tang army, no matter how it fights, it will win, and whoever goes will be the result.

"That's not the point."

Li Jing said in a deep voice,

"The point is the movement of the Tuyuhun royal family."

"Although Duan Zhixuan's speed is very fast, no matter how fast he fights, that time is enough for the Murong clan to escape and transfer."

"So, did Duan Zhixuan divide a second army to stop Murong Fuyun?"

The eldest grandson Wuji glanced at the battle report.

"It didn't say anything in the war report."

He looked up and said,

"He should have joined forces and gathered his strength together, otherwise it would not have been possible to have such a fast speed."

Li Jing pursed his lips.

"Then there's nothing to be happy about."

He snorted softly,

"Anyone can achieve this record by fighting like this."

"The steppe tribes are different from us, they ran away as soon as they saw movement, and when the army crossed, they turned back again, and it can be said that they will not be harmed at all."

"Wherever they are, there is a city."

"So, it's useless to push off! Let's talk about how many enemies you killed! Did you fight any encounters? ”

The eldest grandson Wuji glanced at the battle report again.

“…… Not much. ”

He said helplessly,

"It's almost time to hit the royal city, and thousands of people have been killed, and there is no strong resistance."

"But no matter what, his front is pushing fast, which is to be recognized."

Li Jing's face darkened.

"What is worth affirming, I think it's presumptuous!"

He rebuked unceremoniously,

"The current Tuyuhun army is obviously just avoiding the edge for the time being! Maybe Wangcheng is nothing to them. ”

"What they are doing now must be to preserve their strength, and when the time comes, they will take advantage of our army's slack and bite back! Duan Zhixuan, this kid, is still not reliable enough after all! ”

Eldest grandson Wuji: "......"

This Li Jing, can't he deal with Duan Zhixuan?

Why do you like to pick thorns so much!

Obviously, the battle report is very gratifying, it is good news, why is it all a problem here in Li Jing?

"Pharmacist, don't get too excited."

Li Shimin waved his hand and smiled,

"Anyway, the battle report is not bad, and there is a big victory ahead."

"As for what to do next, it depends on Duan Zhixuan's on-the-spot judgment, maybe he can have a good strategy in Tuyuhun?"

"Let's sit in the court, even if we can talk again, it will be just talking on paper, after all, no one will analyze it thoroughly on the spot."

"Did you say so?"

Li Er doesn't like to be pointed at when he fights.

So when he became the emperor, he also gave the highest degree of freedom to the generals under his command.

You can play as you want.

I'm definitely not going to do it, I'm just going to get you the logistics and be a good transport captain.

Everything, it depends on the result.

“…… His Majesty said yes. ”

When Li Jing heard this, he could only nod helplessly, and then said,

"But the minister thinks that he still has to give Duan Zhixuan a wake-up call."

"Don't get carried away by the success in front of you, you still have to be cautious, the smoother it is, the more likely it is to cheat."

Li Shimin nodded.

"Well, as you say, send him a will."

Li Er commanded,

"Give Duan Zhixuan a commendation order, and then attach the words of the pharmacist."

"Finally, I wish him a triumphant victory."

"That's all."

Boom.

Fang Xuanling didn't say a word, and began to draft the holy decree.

"Auxiliary aircraft, how long will the military budget be enough to support it?"

Li Shimin asked again.

"With the current consumption, it can support more than half a year, and there is no pressure."

The eldest grandson Wuji responded,

"The main reason is that the price of grain is cheap now, and the old grain used to be taken out is just used as grain and grass."

"Less than 30% of the cigarette tax is used, and if all the supplies are up, this battle will not be a problem for three or five years! It's just that the supply line is stretched too long. ”

Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction and patted Xu Fenglei on the shoulder.

"It's comfortable, I've never fought so comfortably!"

He laughed loudly,

"This is all the credit of the Taishi! We found something as good as tobacco, which gave us such a good income! ”

"Listen, I thank you, and the emperors of future generations will also thank you! With this money, there is no need to worry about fighting a war at all! ”

"Fight as much as you want, whatever you want!"

Xu Fenglei: "......"

Will the emperor be grateful to me?

I'm afraid the world is going to scold me to death!

He wants to pull down everyone's average life expectancy with his own efforts!

"Your Majesty, the minister and Sun Simiao, the dean of the School of Medicine, jointly summed up the ten major harms of smoking."

Xu Feng suddenly raised his head and said,

"I want to spread it out and let the world know that smoking is bad for your health!"

"Do you think it's okay?"

Li Shimin: "......"

"Huh?"

He was amazed,

"Why? Aren't you trying to reduce your tobacco tax revenue? If this income is reduced, the army will have less money to fight the war! ”

Xu Fenglei's expression was serious.

"No why, for the sake of the conscience of the heart."

He is right,

"Smoking is really harmful to the body."

"Many people don't know its harm and choose to blindly follow the trend, which invisibly destroys the body, which I don't want to see."

"So, I have to show the world that this thing is harmful! In this way, if everyone still wants to smoke, it is a matter of their own. ”

Li Shimin thought for a moment.

"That's ......"

He frowned, his expression a little hesitant.

After all, he enjoyed the dividends brought by the tobacco tax, and he didn't want to reduce his income so quickly.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured that the income from the tobacco tax will not be reduced too much."

Xu Fenglei added,

"Propaganda is propaganda, and those who should be pumped will still smoke."

"We need to persuade young people and people who are willing to die...... If you don't care about life expectancy if you have a lot of troubles, then it doesn't matter, no matter how much harm you tell them, they won't quit. ”

Li Shimin nodded.

"That's right...... It's like you told me about the dangers of smoking, but I still can't help but have one, and another one. ”

He said helplessly,

"How easy is it to quit?"

"Unless one day, I don't have the slightest trouble, maybe I'll quit naturally."

Xu Fenglei was silent for a while.

That's it.

Nine times out of ten, things don't go your way.

If it's all good and there's no trouble, who wants to sit there and smoke this?

"Go and spread the word, you're right, you can't let teenagers and children touch this thing!"

Li Shimin commanded,

"On this, we must guard it strictly!"

"When you become adults, you should also educate them more about the dangers of smoking...... Also, you can increase the price when appropriate. ”

Price!

If you can't afford it, don't you have to smoke it, or you won't have to smoke it?

In this way, the goal of reducing the number of smokers can also be achieved, and Datang's profits will not be damaged too much.

"Yes."

Xu Fenglei nodded yes.

……

The meeting dispersed, and Xu Fenglei's head was still thinking about how to publicize it to get the best effect.

Outside the Xuanwu Gate, there was a straight figure, standing there motionless.

When Xu Fenglei walked out of the Xuanwu Gate, the figure trembled violently!

And then - began to run!

"Big Brother !!"

Xue Rengui was like a monkey, shouting and rushing forward!

The guards on the Xuanwu Gate suddenly became nervous!

Who is this kid?

Where did it come from? Alert!

Whew!

Countless bows and crossbows were aimed at Xue Rengui, but Xue Rengui was unaware of it at the moment, and with a bear hug, he hugged Xu Fenglei!

"Rengui?!"

Xu Fenglei was also a little surprised, hugging the strong man in front of him, and said,

"You're back?!"

"Ouch! You miss Big Brother! ”

Bang bang bang!

His arm slapped on Xue Rengui's thick shoulder, making a dull sound.

"It's so sturdy! You kid! ”

Xue Rengui laughed.

"Of course! I didn't treat myself badly! ”

He patted his chest and said proudly,

"Big brother, little brother can protect you in the future!"

Xu Fenglei looked at his high-spirited appearance, and his expression was also a little gratified.

This kid...... After all, I still practiced it!

"Good, good, good boy!"

He put his arm around Xue Rengui's shoulders and said,

"Let's go, let's go home! Go home and eat! ”

"We don't get drunk!"

"Yes!" Xue Rengui replied, smiling brightly.

Seeing the two of them leave shoulder to shoulder, they will not be able to fix the guards on the city gate at once!

"This ...... Who is this man? ”

"Yes, the Taishi is so close to him! It shouldn't be an ordinary person. ”

"I think ...... too Fortunately, I didn't miss just now, if I shoot him to death, we won't have to pay for our lives? ”

“……”

It's night, Xu Guogong's mansion.

Bite!

Bite!

Bite!

Xue Rengui and Xu Fenglei kept clinking glasses, and they were already drunk.

Xu Fenglei is also in full swing today, drink beautifully! Known as a thousand cups of not drunk, he was even a little drunk.

There is a saying that if you don't get drunk, everyone gets drunk.

When you're happy, you let go of drinking and let yourself get drunk, and there's nothing wrong with it.

"Big brother, let me tell you!"

"That Songtsen Gampo, I went through it with an arrow piercing the clouds, and I only heard a sound!"

"And guess what?"

"What's wrong?" Xu Fenglei was very cooperative.

"Whew! That kid was shot to death by me! ”

Xue Rengui said with a smile,

"I can't help but! I would have liked to finish him in three arrows! I didn't expect an arrow! ”

"Zanpu of Tibet, just died in my hands! You say...... Isn't that ridiculous? ”

Xu Fenglei drank all the wine in the cup.

"yes...... Absurd! ”

He laughed,

"So, no one would have thought that this was the handiwork of the Tang people!"

"You've done a great job! It is because of the perfection of your key link that my strategy is implemented! ”

"Now, the Tang Dynasty is victorious in Tuyuhun, and Murong Fuyun is holding his head and running away!"

"And I heard that there is also civil strife in Tibet, and it is divided into two factions, and now it is inextricably fighting, and there is a faint tendency to split!"

"These ...... It's all thanks to your boy's arrow! ”

Xue Rengui waved his hand again and again.

"What am I? I'm a chess piece in your hand, big brother, where you let me go, I'll go! ”

He said earnestly,

"If you want to talk about credit, everything is the work of your plan, big brother!"

"Without a little brother, there will be people who will also complete the task well."

Xu Fenglei grinned.

"You kid, you're a lot more sleek now...... This must have been learned from Cheng Zhijie. ”

Xue Rengui waved his hand again and again.

"Master Cheng didn't teach me this, and I'm not tactful, I really think so in my heart."

He hurriedly said,

"Big brother, you have to believe me!"

Xu Fenglei nodded.

"Big brother naturally believes in you."

He whispered,

"But no matter what, you've done a great job! Even Your Majesty wants to meet you! ”

"Tomorrow, I'll take you into the palace, you have to behave well! That might be your kid's chance to make it to the top! ”

Xue Rengui's expression froze.

"Little brother understands!" He said solemnly.

I worked hard to make achievements, and I only got one opportunity for the emperor's 'interview'.

This opportunity is incomparably precious!

If the emperor is satisfied, he will definitely be a general in the future! The start may be a partial general!

If you disappoint Your Majesty, then you may have to start as an unknown captain.

"By the way, have you dealt with those people under your hands?"

Xu Feng suddenly asked again,

"This matter is a secret among secrets!"

"Except for Your Majesty and you and me, even your masters, I don't know much!"

"So, this matter must not be leaked! Once leaked, the impact on Datang will be immeasurable! ”

Xue Rengui shook his head.

"They're all good, so I didn't think about dealing with them in the first place."

He said in a deep voice,

"So, that's what the younger brother does......"

As he spoke, he told his strategy one by one, and also repeated what he said to his subordinates in Xue Yantuo to Xu Fenglei.

Then, Xue Rengui looked at Xu Fenglei cautiously.

"Big brother, you see me like this...... It should be foolproof, right? ”

He looked at Xu Fenglei's expression and whispered,

"Although these soldiers are all Turkic, they really love the Tang Dynasty! One by one, they love Datang more than the Tang people, for fear that Datang will be ashamed! I was shocked! ”

"That's why I'm even more reluctant to deal with them...... Big brother, please forgive me for being willful. ”

"If you don't feel safe...... I, I'll deal with them now, I haven't disbanded the team yet, they are all in Chang'an, and none of them are missing. ”

Xu Fenglei looked at Xue Rengui with a complicated gaze.

Xue Rengui chuckled in his heart and became a little at a loss.

Eldest brother...... Aren't you angry?

Because you didn't clean your tail? Alas......

I knew I shouldn't have had this kindness......

"Rengui, you've grown up after all......"

Just when Xue Rengui was thinking nonsense, Xu Fenglei got up and patted him on the shoulder, and said with emotion,

"What a general, what a wise man!"

"Your strategy is very good! Big brother approves it! ”

"Your Majesty will definitely find a treasure when he sees you! You kid...... Promising! ”
