The book continued from the above, saying that since Chu Mofeng released his words in front of all the generals that day, the generals returned to the camp and began to command the soldiers under their command to start practicing day and night.

Let me ask you, throughout the ages, which general did not want to make military contributions? Which official did not want to rise to the top? As far as civilian officials are concerned, they can have the capital to be promoted if they have political achievements and qualifications; and as far as military generals are concerned, every meritorious service is earned by themselves and the officers and men under their command on the battlefield with their lives with a knife and a gun.

Whoever wants to be like Chu Mofeng in his heart, the Holy Dependent You Wu has risen all the way, but who knows how many nights Chu Mofeng has been thinking and meditating for the next move of the army since the beginning of Jinyang's army;

Perhaps those civil officials who were full of mouths and closed their mouths didn't know that after the completion of the Valhalla, on the day when the first batch of heroic souls settled in, Chu Mofeng asked people to set up a 'clothed mound' for themselves, in order to be able to accompany those soldiers who followed him on the expedition and sacrificed forever.

It's just that many people don't know, or only a few people know, that the reason why Chu Mofeng is so desperate is for the Tang Dynasty, but it is not the Tang Dynasty led by Li Yuan.

Standing on the school ground at this time, looking at the soldiers in front of him who were sweating profusely but still insisting on training, Chu Mofeng couldn't help but sigh secretly: If you are not given a motivation to train at this time, once the Turkic cubs invade the south in the future, Datang will definitely not be able to resist it.

Thinking of this, Chu Mofeng temporarily changed the assessment plan, and ordered the generals in the Baibi military camp to work in pairs, select forty outstanding soldiers to fight in groups, and finally confront the Tiance army one by one according to the ranking of the group confrontation, and the final winner will be given priority in the next expedition.

As soon as Chu Mofeng's plan was announced, the entire camp was in an uproar, looking at the noisy soldiers in the audience, Li Shimin on the side stepped forward and coughed lightly and said: " Ladies and gentlemen, Qi Guogong's move is nothing more than to let you strengthen your own and your team's combat skills in the process of this assessment, so as to be able to deal with large-scale battles in the future, if anyone feels that they do not have the confidence and ability to deal with this challenge, then quit now, don't be like a woman there, the king will apply to the imperial court to transfer you back to Chang'an. ”

As soon as these words came out, the originally noisy voices in the audience suddenly disappeared without a trace, everyone knew that under the command of His Royal Highness King Qin, he was well fed and warmly dressed, his salary was paid on time, someone was injured and treated, and there was a bereavement pension for the dead, no one was a fool, if he returned to the capital or was assigned to someone else's command, not to mention whether he could be paid on time, his life was estimated to be guaranteed.

Thinking of this, the generals and soldiers present shouted in unison: "Follow the instructions of His Royal Highness King Qin and Duke Qi Guogong, and your subordinates will definitely complete the assessment conscientiously." ”

Seeing this, Li Shimin smiled and said: "Since you have this determination, then the king will give the generals three days to find allies, and the assessment will begin after three days." Then he motioned for the army to retreat.

Li Shimin and Chu Mofeng went straight to the study of Li Shimin's temporary residence, only to see Li Shimin take out a porcelain bottle and hand it to Chu Mofeng, and said with a smile: "It's about to be the New Year again, it is estimated that our brothers will not be able to go back this year, and several of your wives are pregnant, why don't you go back and have a look?"

"No need, since Your Majesty has brought them into the palace, there must be not too few people who will be arranged to serve them, and Ziyao is also a doctor, I am very relieved. Taking the porcelain vase handed by Li Shimin, Chu Mofeng opened the lid and took a sip to his lips and said, "It's you, the child was born not long ago, and you led the troops to the battle, did you name it?"

"Cheng Qian, Li Cheng Qian, this is the name given by my father, it is taken from the name of Cheng Qiandian, I think the name is good, so I should inherit it, and my father has ordered someone to enter the jade. Hearing Chu Mofeng ask about his son, Li Shimin's cold face rarely showed a warm smile, "The little guy is quite sturdy, I want to wait for a little older in the future, please ask Hanshuang to teach him some kung fu, if Guanyin gives me a daughter in the future, I will have to bother Hanshuang to teach martial arts, after all, people are also famous and decent in the rivers and lakes." ”

Chu Mofeng gave Li Shimin a big roll of his eyes when he heard this, and said with a little disgust: "I said Li Laoer, do you mean that you dislike me for not teaching well? No matter what you say, I am also a bit famous in the rivers and lakes. ”

"Forget it, who doesn't know that your martial arts are quite complicated, if you teach it, it is estimated that you can teach a four-way in the end, do you think everyone is as rebellious as you?" Li Shimin raised the porcelain bottle in his hand and shook it at Chu Mofeng, raised his head and poured a mouthful, and then shouted loudly outside the door: "Everyone stand down, I will discuss with the Duke of Qi Guo's armament, and the escort team will be in the courtyard, if there is anyone who wantonly eavesdroppers, he will not be pardoned!"

After hearing a chaotic footsteps outside the door, Li Shimin nodded at Chu Mofeng, and Chu Mofeng whispered when he saw this: "I'll tell you a few things in the court, and then we will analyze them slowly." ”

Seeing Li Shimin nodded, Chu Mofeng said slowly: "First, your eldest brother is quite suspicious of you now, this matter came from the palace, and the first person to know about this matter was Li Gang, the former secretary of the Ministry of Rites. ”

It turned out that at the end of August, Li Yuan ordered Li Gang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, to be the crown prince Zhan Shi, and the crown prince Li Jiancheng respected him very much at first. After a long time, the prince gradually became closer to the villain, jealous of the great merit of Li Shimin, the king of Qin, and quite suspicious of Li Shimin.

Who knew that after Li Yuan learned of this, he scolded Li Gang in court: "You have been He Panren's long history, are you ashamed to be my scholar! Besides, you are about to ask you to tutor Jiancheng, but you insist on resigning, why is this?"

Seeing that Li Yuan was angry, Li Gang had no choice but to kowtow and apologize: "Pan Ren is a thief, every time he wants to kill an innocent person, he will not kill him immediately after I persuade him, and I can have a clear conscience as his long history." Your Majesty is a sage monarch who started a business, I have no ability, what I say is like pouring water on a stone, although the stone is wet, it can't penetrate, and the persuasion of the prince is also ineffective, how dare I defile Shangshu Province for a long time, and make the East Palace humiliated?"

Hearing this, Li Yuan realized that the problem was not Li Gang, but his appointed crown prince Li Jiancheng, and in desperation, Li Yuan had no choice but to say to Li Gang: "I know that you are an upright person, please reluctantly stay to tutor my son." ”

On the Wuzi Day of September (23rd), Li Yuan ordered the appointment of Li Gang as the crown prince Shaobao, and the official positions of the original secretary of the Ministry of Rites and the prince Zhan Shi were still retained. Li Gang also wrote to persuade the prince to drink without moderation, and to trust the evil people and alienate his flesh and blood brothers, the prince was unhappy, and his behavior remained the same.

For this reason, Li Gang was depressed, just a few days ago, when we attacked Wei Chi Jingde and Xunxiang, Li Gang wrote that he was old and sick and had to resign, and Gaozu issued an edict to remove him from the post of Shangshu and still let him serve as a young protector.

"It's quite tactful to be able to get this news, one of Li Gang's concubines likes to go to Chang'an Jade Pavilion to buy jewelry, you also know women, they will always chat with people, and the female shopkeeper of Jade Pavilion immediately reported it to me after learning the news, so I can inform you about this matter today." After Chu Mofeng drank the wine in the porcelain bottle, he shook it at Li Shimin, signaling that he had no wine to drink, only to see Li Shimin shake his head, walked to a cabinet in the corner of the study, opened the cabinet door, and took out a jar of wine from it and threw it at Chu Mofeng.

Seeing this, Chu Mofeng gently put the porcelain bottle on the table, stretched out his hand to meet the direction of the wine jar, and seemed to take it gently, the wine jar fell on Chu Mofeng's palm unabated, and Chu Mofeng smiled and wrapped the wine jar in his palm with a feminine force and drew a circle in the air, which was worthy of fixing the wine jar in his palm.

Li Shimin couldn't help but applaud when he saw it, "When will you do this again?" After speaking, he also took out a jar of wine, sat opposite Chu Mofeng and asked suspiciously: "Why did the shopkeeper report to you? It can't be your own shop, right?"

Chu Mofeng stretched out his hand to pat off the mud seal on the wine jar, slowly shook his head and said: "Our house is not in the mood to grab business with those gate valve families in Chang'an, it's not that we don't want to rob it, but we don't want Your Majesty to be embarrassed." As for the source of this news, it is still because Your Royal Highness the King of Qin kindly took in those Jianghu sects from Luoyang back then, and this shopkeeper is from the Moon Gate, now you understand, right?"

At this time, Li Shimin also slapped off the mud seal, and after pouring a sip of wine, he said with some disappointment: "It seems that the eldest brother really doesn't want to let me go, hey, I don't know why there is such a situation between our brothers? ”

"None of you are wrong about this, you can only say that the position above the court is too tempting, and others will do the same, so don't have any ideas. Chu Mofeng shook his head helplessly, and then said, "Do you remember the fact that Your Majesty temporarily changed his mind when we were preparing to go on an expedition a year ago?"

Li Shimin nodded puzzled and said, "Isn't it because the time is not ripe and my father needs to sit alone in Changchun Palace, so he temporarily changed his plan?"

"The fart is not ripe. Hearing Li Shimin's question, Chu Mofeng suddenly slapped the table angrily and said: "Someone told me about this matter, it was your eldest brother who secretly played a ghost and told His Majesty not to go west for the time being, and you don't know that your father has soft ears and is quite suspicious, so you know, it has become what it is now." ”

Chu Mofeng paused and continued: "Before you were ordered to lead the troops to the expedition this time, your eldest brother also found someone in the court to oppose it, who knew that the person he was looking for was also a bad brain, and he even suggested that His Majesty let Li Yuanji lead the army to the expedition, but His Majesty was rejected on the spot. ”

"Yuanji?" Li Shimin shook his head and said: "Big brother, me, Xuanba, Yuanji and Xiuning, our brothers and sisters are five and one mother, in fact, sometimes on some issues, Xiuning is a hundred times stronger than Yuanji, when his mother died very early, about the ninth year of the great cause, my father and emperor were alone pulling our five brothers and sisters, and they were very strict with us, Yuanji was stubborn since he was a child, if he was allowed to lead the troops to fight, it was really unimaginable. ”

"So at that time, I made a fortune in the court, after all, I am a hussar general, and the entire battle plan is formulated by me, of course, the commander must also be arranged according to my ideas. After Chu Mofeng took a sip of wine, as if he remembered something, he said to Li Shimin with a disgusted look: "Patronizing and drinking, I said that you didn't prepare something to drink, who can stand drinking like this?"

Li Shimin slapped his forehead when he heard the words and said: "Look, I only care about the narrative, and I have left such a big thing behind, and I hope that the grandfather of the country will forgive me, this king will send someone to prepare, don't be impatient!" After speaking, he shouted outside the door: "Go to the back kitchen to prepare some wine and food and bring them over, today the king will have a long talk with the grandfather of the country all night." ”

I only heard someone answer from outside the door, and after about half an hour, there was a knock on the door: "His Royal Highness King Qin, the wine and food have been prepared, and my subordinates will bring them in for you and Grandpa Guo." ”

Chu Mofeng hurriedly put down the wine jar in his hand and walked over, opened the door and welcomed the personal soldier who delivered the wine and food in, only to see that the personal soldier was holding a tray, on which the four cold, four hot and eight dishes were stacked neatly, which made people salivate at the sight.

After this person put away the wine and food, he slowly withdrew from the study, Chu Mofeng hurriedly closed the door, reached out and picked up a piece of hand-grabbed mutton and stuffed it into his mouth, and said vaguely: "Look, this is the normal state of narration!"

Li Shimin smiled when he saw this, sat opposite Chu Mofeng with the wine jar, took a mouthful of food with chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth, and motioned for Chu Mofeng to continue.

"Actually, I don't have to worry about these things with your eldest brother, but the matter of the Western Turkic Khan, I really killed Li Jiancheng at that time. ”

Hearing that Chu Mofeng mentioned the Khan of the Western Turks, Li Shimin was also sad in his heart, he was friendly with Hosana, but in the end, he couldn't save his life.

It turned out that at this time, the Khan of Hosa Na was the Turkic Luo Khan of that year, when Chu Luo and Shi Bi fought a big battle, after the defeat of Luo Luo, he fled to the Great Sui alone, and was named the Khan of Hosa by Emperor Yang of Sui, and then Emperor Yang of Sui was killed by Yu Culture, and Hosa Na went north with Yu Culture.

In December of the first year of Wude (618), the Khan of Hosa Na came to the Tang Dynasty from Yu Culture and Place. Tang named him the king of Guiyi. At that time, as soon as the Khan of Hosa fell, Chu Mofeng sniffed out a glimmer of hope for the disintegration of the Turks, if the Tang Dynasty was stabilized, as long as the Tang Dynasty was stabilized, it was only necessary to support the restoration of the Khan with money and food, and there would inevitably be a big war between the Western Turks and the Northern Turks.

But who would have thought that the Northern Turks learned that Hosuna was in Chang'an, so they sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty to ask for Hosuna to be killed, and Li Yuan resolutely disagreed at first when he learned of this. In fact, it was not that Li Yuan resolutely disagreed, but that after Chu Mofeng learned about this, he personally entered the palace to face the saint and analyzed the stakes for Li Yuan.

Who knew that when the court discussed this matter on the second day, a group of civil servants said one after another: "If you protect a person but offend a country, it will inevitably be a disaster in the future!"

Li Shimin, the king of Qin, who had always been good friends with Hosa, wrote to him: "Others have no way to come and defect, and it is unjust for us to kill him." ”

Who knew that Li Yuan hesitated for a long time at this time, so on the 21st day of the ninth month of the second year of Wude, he took Hosa Na to hold a banquet and drink in the inner hall, and then sent him to Zhongshu Province, where the envoys of the Northern Turks killed Hosana.

After learning of this, Chu Mofeng did not show any emotions in the court, but secretly ordered the chess piece in his hand to investigate the matter, and sure enough, he lived up to expectations and was discovered by this person, and the mastermind behind this matter was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Li Jiancheng.

"Why? Hao Suona has no grievances or enmity with the eldest brother, why does the eldest brother insist on putting him to death?" Li Shimin listened to Chu Mofeng's words, and immediately said indignantly: "Could it be that the eldest brother will turn a blind eye to the benefits of Hosana?"

Chu Mofeng shook his head helplessly, and secretly thought to himself, of course I can't tell you that it is because of the good relationship between you and Haosuo, so your eldest brother wants to kill him in order for you to have one less help in the future, if I say it, you will fall into deep self-blame, which is what I don't want to see.

Thinking of this, Chu Mofeng said slowly: "This expedition, my original plan was to complete the success, as long as I can completely eliminate Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang, even if I can fight for another year, then your merits will increase a lot." ”

"Cheng, this time I will listen to you how you say how to fight, I hope that our two brothers can completely eliminate Liu Wuzhou and regain the lost territory. Li Shimin nodded, picked up the wine jar and touched Chu Mofeng, and the two immediately raised their heads and drank wildly.

At this time, Chu Mofeng put down the wine jar and said in a solemn tone: "Don't worry, I have to tell you a few more things, you should pay attention to yourself." ”

"Say it, I'll listen. Li Shimin nodded and motioned for Chu Mofeng to continue.

"Pei Lian, although I brought him out this time, as far as I know, this person has already taken refuge in your eldest brother, so let him do the matter of recruiting Lu Chongmao, tomorrow you will send a letter to recruit troops and horses from nearby to him, don't use our people. At the mention of Pei Lian, Chu Mofeng's tone was filled with a hint of disdain.

"Don't mention this ungrateful white-eyed wolf, if it weren't for him, Wen Jing wouldn't have died, I will listen to you about this matter, and I will write the order tonight. As soon as he heard Chu Mofeng mention Pei Lian, Li Shimin thought of Liu Wenjing, who died unjustly, and suddenly had a disgusted expression.

"Li Xiaoji, Dugu Huaien, Yu Yun, Tang Jian, and Liu Shirang, the head of the march, were captured by Liu Wuzhou and brought back to Jinyang, if they defeated Jinyang, they must be rescued. Speaking of Lu Chongmao, Chu Mofeng suddenly thought that Liu Hongji's guy was unfortunately captured again, and said with a little joking: "Why do you say that Hongji is so unlucky, every time he is captured, he has his share." ”

"Who knows, after rescuing them, I have to ask Liu Hongji well. After talking about a heavy topic for a long time, it was easy to have an interesting one, and the two couldn't help laughing.

After a long while, Chu Mofeng suppressed his laughter and whispered to Li Shimin: "There is something I have been hiding from you, not because I don't want to say it, but because I am afraid that you will impulsively ruin my plan after saying it, I don't know if you still remember Zhang Jian?"

"Remember, isn't that the spy that the eldest brother planted beside me? Is this matter related to him?" Hearing Chu Mofeng say that he had something to hide from him, Li Shimin suddenly felt uncomfortable in his heart, and he sincerely interacted with him, who knew that this person also had something to hide from himself, and said coldly at the moment: "Say, what is the matter?"

Seeing Li Shimin's attitude, Chu Mofeng hurriedly smiled and said: "Look at you, I just mentioned it slightly, you are like this, if I had told you at the beginning, it is estimated that the whole plan is now completely messed up." After speaking, he stretched out his hand and pointed at Li Shimin and said: "You, can you be calmer, in fact, your eldest brother has installed two spies by your side, Zhang Jian is clear, and there is a secret I have been secretly investigating, and the reason why I don't tell you is that I am afraid that you will be in trouble if you impulsively startle the snake." After Zhang Jian's death, I searched his house and pieced together such a message from an unburned piece of paper, which should have been very hidden. ”

Hearing this, Li Shimin knew that he had just misunderstood Chu Mofeng, it turned out that the person in front of him had always supported him silently behind him, thinking of this, Li Shimin hugged his fist at Chu Mofeng and said: "Fang is the one I misunderstood you, please don't be angry." ”

", don't mess up that crepe, if I'm angry, I won't tell you a fart. Seeing this, Chu Mofeng smiled and opened Li Shimin's hand, then took a sip of wine and said: "You don't know about this matter, I am bound to find out about it, otherwise this person has been hiding in the dark, if we are given a blow at a critical time, we will be passive at that time." ”

Seeing this, Li Shimin nodded, and said in a firm tone: "Okay, this matter is entrusted to you, so what do we need to do next?"

"Train the troops, train the soldiers, train all these soldiers into wolf cubs, once they see blood on the battlefield, they can fight endlessly like my Tiance army, so that we will have the strength to fight against the Turkic cubs in the future." At this time, Chu Mofeng said with a hideous face: "In this assessment, you must punish me well after the class teacher returns to the court, after all, fighting is not a joke." ”

At this time, the soldiers who were tired from training for a day did not know that their miserable experience in the next three months was arbitrarily decided by the two highest commanders at the wine table.

At the end of the second day, at the beginning of the second day, the barracks suddenly sounded the sound of war drums, as the saying goes, the drums are orders, the moment they heard the war drums, all the soldiers in the barracks got up one after another, changed their clothes and put on their clothes, and then rushed towards the direction of the school under the leadership of the generals.

When everyone entered the school in turn, they found that Chu Mofeng and Li Shimin were already standing on the platform of the school yard in full armor, looking at the teams that came in turn, and the two of them silently scored in their hearts.

After all the teams arrived, Chu Mofeng stepped forward and said to everyone: "Although you are asked to find allies within three days, the normal daily training cannot be delayed, all the generals are out of line, and collectively go to the council hall to discuss this matter, and the soldiers under their respective commands listen to my orders, with a fist on the left and right as the interval, and an arm's length in the front and back, and stand apart." ”

only listened to an order, but it was the Tiance Army under Chu Mofeng who stood first, and the rest of the soldiers followed suit and quickly stood according to Chu Mofeng's requirements.

Then Chu Mofeng said loudly: "Take the standing posture of the Tiance Army as the standard and stand well, the first time the rioters are twenty military sticks, the second time is fifty military sticks, and those who come out for no reason will be killed." This official and His Royal Highness the King of Qin took the generals to the council hall to discuss matters, and when the official returns, don't be caught by me. ”

After speaking, Chu Mofeng nodded at Li Shimin, and walked towards the conference hall with a group of generals......

As the saying goes, there is no second martial arts, and looking at Li Shimin's assessment, Chu Mo is prestigious, I want to know what will happen next, and listen to the next decomposition......
