Chapter 61: Li Jing, General Li, Chen, had to be sorry

In the main hall of the Ministry of Works, the Minister of Works, Wu Shi, reported to Yang Gongren and other ministers of the Political Affairs Hall.

Samurai said while coughing: "In recent years, all the fur purchased from the grassland has been used. This time, the Ministry of Works has raised a total of 180,000 leather jackets and 80,000... felts for horses to keep warm. The Ministry of Works has lost everything this time."

Wei Zheng suddenly asked, "Does all the war horses that went on the expedition have felt?"

The Samurai nodded and said, "In addition, the Ministry of Works also collected the cotton sent by Anxi, and made a total of 180,000 pairs of cotton pants and 250,000 sets of cotton coats..."

Fang Xuanling smiled and said, "Xuancheng, it seems that the most difficult period of the Tang Dynasty has finally passed. With this heavy snow, the Tang Dynasty in the second year of Kaiyuan will be a good harvest."

At this moment, An Yanyan walked into the Political Affairs Hall with great strides and said to everyone: "My grandpa, Your Majesty has set up a large camp in Beiyuan, summoned you to discuss matters."

Yang Gongren, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Wang Gui, Gao Shilian and others did not dare to neglect them, so they quickly stood up and followed Li Anyan to Beiyuan.

In the large tent of the Central Army in the North Garden of Tai Chi Palace, Li Jiancheng was covered in armor and stood in front of the map.

Li Jing, Xue Wanche, Qin Qiong, Feng Li, Yuchi Jingde and others, and a group of senior Tang army generals have already sat down on both sides.

The prime ministers entered the central army camp.

Fang Xuanling looked at Li Jiancheng's clothes and immediately raised his eyebrows.

Li Jiancheng was full of interest and invited everyone to sit down.

After everyone sat down, Li Jiancheng said enthusiastically: "My dear friends, the strategy for this battle against Mobei has been determined. Six routes were sent to the northwest, and the Daling River surrounded the northwest, called feint attack, mainly composed of the elite of the Andong army. If the Eastern Turks do not react in time or are slow, then turn feint attack into attack."

"The second road goes out of Hedong, with Li Jing as the commander as the main attack. The main attacking troops use fast attacks to fight slowly, and strive to break Jie Li's tent with a thunder attack, causing the Turkic troops to lose a unified command system, and then defeat the enemy troops one by one by one."

"The third route is dominated by Lingzhou Army, attacking northwards, attacking Yinshan from west to east, and Qin Qiong is the head coach."

"The fourth route is dominated by Liangzhou army, from Gansu to Suyue Heishui, and attacking northward. This attack is a feint, and it is necessary to leave behind elite troops to defend Liangzhou and prevent the Tubo people from taking advantage of the situation!"

"The fifth is mainly based on the Anxi Army, and is responsible for the task of attacking the northern part of Mo. He goes west along Jinshan and goes straight to Longting."

"The sixth route is mainly composed of the twelve guards army and serves as the general strategic reserve team. Which route needs support? The twelve guards army will rush to any route in the shortest time..."

The generals exchanged glances with excitement.

Li Jiancheng continued: "The place where the two countries fight will be in Dingxiang - the Turks will inevitably drive away cattle and sheep and go south to find food...

Fang Xuanling suddenly stood up and interrupted Li Jiancheng's speech.

Fang Xuanling said: "Why did Your Majesty wear armor and hold this court discussion in the military camp? Is Your Majesty trying to govern the country by fighting war?"

Li Jiancheng was stunned and thought to himself for a long time, but he didn't know how to answer.

The people in the tent had different expressions.

After a while, Li Jiancheng took off his helmetly and threw it aside, looking unhappy.

The generals watched the prime ministers and boarded the car and walked away.

Fang Xuanling followed the crowd and walked by.

Niu Junda couldn't help but sigh.

Qin Qiong poked Niu Junda.

Niu Junda glared at her eyes: "Fang Chanjun is such a slutty man. He will never say something happy at any time!"

Qin Qiong pulled Niu Junda's sleeve.

Fang Xuanling seemed to have not heard it and got into the bus and left.

Wei Zheng looked at it, turned around and walked into the central army's tent.

The central army's tent was empty, and Li Jiancheng was still sitting in front of the map without saying a word.

Wei Zheng walked to Li Jiancheng and said, "Your Majesty, Fang Xuanling has always had this temper. Your Majesty doesn't have to be angry about this."

Li Jiancheng laughed and stood up and said, "How could I be angry with him? If it weren't for Fang Xuanling in the past few years, how could the Tang Dynasty recover its vitality in such a short time? How could I have the chance to personally fight against the Turks? I couldn't even thank Fang Xuanling, so why would I blame him for such a little unhappiness?"

Wei Zheng felt relieved.

The next day, the palace was in the morning.

Li Jiancheng was full of energy and sat upright on the Danmu with confidence.

The ministers went to the palace.

After the ministers were finished, Li Jiancheng waved his hand urgently and said, "My dear friends, yesterday I have set up a strategy for the Northern Expedition with all the prime ministers and generals in the army. Today I will be promoted to the court, so I will discuss the arrangements for the Northern Expedition. I have a preliminary strategy, and I will take it out first and discuss it."

Fang Xuanling stood in the train and looked at Li Jiancheng coldly.

Li Jiancheng continued unconsciously: "Wei Zheng, the right servant of the Shangshu, led the Northern Expedition to Taiwan, and specially handled the supply of food and fodder in the army; the Shangshu Provincial Civil Affairs Department, from the Shangshu Provincial Government, from the Minister of War, from the Minister of War, from the Minister of War, from the Minister of War, from the Minister of War, from the Minister of War, from the Minister of War, and from the Minister of the Ministry of War to draw up an imperial edict..."

Before Li Jiancheng could finish his speech, Fang Xuanling interrupted Li Jiancheng's words and said, "Your Majesty, I have a report on the strategy of the Northern Expedition."

Li Jiancheng smiled and asked quietly: "Please speak Xuanling."

Fang Xuanling said: "I recommended Li Jing as the chief general of the military commander of Dingxiang Road, and Li Xiaogong was appointed as the deputy chief general of the Turks in the north.

Li Jiancheng was stunned for a moment, then stood up in anger and left with his sleeves.

The ministers in the palace looked at each other.

Fang Xuanling looked at the emperor's angry back and left, and the sneer at the corner of his mouth became even more serious.

Li Jiancheng walked to Fang Xuanling, stared at him intently and said, "I want to personally conquer Mobei."

Fang Xuanling said in a humble manner: "Don't even think about it in your dreams!"

Li Jiancheng finally couldn't help but his anger, jumped and shouted: "I am the best general myself!"

Fang Xuanling nodded.

Li Jiancheng pointed at Fang Xuanling and shouted: "In the first year of Wude, Qianshuiyuan was defeated. Who cleaned up the mess?"

Fang Xuanling said: "It's Your Majesty!"

Li Jiancheng said: "Who was the powerful Wang Kuanglan when Luoyang fought against Wang Shichong? It was me and Dou Jiande. If I hadn't sent someone to surrender to the aristocratic families of thirty-nine states in Hebei and collectively turned against each other, how could Dou Jiande surrender easily?"

Fang Xuanling looked directly at Li Jiancheng without any retreat and said, "But you are the worst emperor!"

Li Jiancheng's forehead was exposed and he roared loudly, "Don't think that if he has an agreement with me, he can do whatever he wants. If he angers me, I can still kill you."

Fang Xuanling spread his hands and said, "So I said, you are the worst emperor!"

Li Jiancheng was so angry that his veins were bulging, and pointed at Fang Xuanling for a long time and couldn't speak.

Li Jiancheng was so angry that he threw down all the civil and military ministers in the court and turned around and left Xiande Hall.

However, Fang Xuanling was unyielding, following Li Jiancheng.

Li Jiancheng rushed into the imperial study room, and Fang Xuanling also entered.

Entering the imperial study room, Li Jiancheng angrily threw things around.

Fang Xuanling did not show any weakness. He rolled up his arms, rolled up his sleeves, and also smashed things, and he also picked expensive items.

Li Jiancheng was shocked and saw that Wei Zheng was thinking of a precious screen and had to stop and drag Fang Xuanling into the corner.

Li Jiancheng pointed at the screen and said furiously: "Do you know who used that screen?"

Fang Xuanling looked at Li Jiancheng innocently and said, "I don't know."

Li Jiancheng was angry and took a big breath before glaring at his eyes and said, "Lanling King!"

Under the door of the Imperial Study Room, Li Anyan suddenly pulled Wei Zheng and said, "Prime Minister Wei, please enter and persuade Your Majesty. Your Majesty is furious inside."

Wei Zheng looked at the lesser movement in the imperial study room, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Wei Zheng sighed and said, "If Fang Xuanling can't persuade His Majesty, it will be useless if anyone goes, unless General Chen is here!"

Of course, Wei Zheng's words were actually insincere.

He and Fang Xuanling passed the ball in advance and firmly could not agree to Li Jiancheng as the leader of the war.

Li Jiancheng, like Li Shimin, is both civil and military. In fact, Li Jiancheng is as restrained as his men, and looks gentle, not like Li Shimin as fast as the wind and fire. Moreover, Li Shimin likes to take risks very much. Although Li Jiancheng is gentle when he uses military service, this is the most deadly.

During the Battle of Qianshuiyuan, Li Shimin won a small victory in the first battle.

Li Jiancheng seized the opportunity of the fighter, took advantage of the internal chaos of Western Qin, alienated his monarch and ministers, and expanded the conflicts within Western Qin. In this way, Xue Rengao had to surrender. This was exactly the case in the Battle of Hebei. Although Dou Jiande suppressed Li Jiancheng, Li Jiancheng sent Wei Zheng to incorporate the Hebei clans and Shandong clans, promising to pay great benefits, and directly made all the 39 prefectures and counties in Hebei turn against each other.

Dou Jiande, who became a lonely man, had to surrender.

As the saying goes, those who are good at fighting have no great achievements. In history, Li Jiancheng was responsible for the defense of the north, and the Eastern Turks could not make any progress. On the contrary, as soon as Li Shimin recaptured, Jie Li Khan led 200,000 troops and headed straight to the city of Chang'an.

In the imperial study room, Fang Xuanling set out and looked at the screen sideways, showing the serious look of the masterpiece.

Li Jiancheng shook his head helplessly and sighed, and asked Fang Xuanling with his face, "Fang Xuanling, is it that I am so untrustworthy in military affairs?"

Fang Xuanling still looked at the screen and said lightly: "This is not a matter of trust... I think this screen is just average!"

Li Jiancheng almost trembled and asked, "What's the problem?"

Fang Xuanling approached the screen again and said with a more serious look: "Li Jing will be in command, and His Majesty will grant him the white flags and yellow axes, and he will be appointed to command the army; but, if Your Majesty is the commander, who will grant Your Majesty axes? Who will pay Your Majesty axes to the Marshal?"

Fang Xuanling turned his head suddenly, stared at Li Jiancheng, and said with an inquiring expression: "Do you want to invite the Supreme Emperor out of the Ganlu Palace again?"

Fang Xuanling spread his hands and said innocently: "If this is the case, I have nothing to say."

Li Jiancheng was speechless and was so angry that he sat on the ground.
