Chapter 95 His Highness King Qi gives you 50,000 troops

The former Duke Xing Guogong in Chang'an City, and the current Duke Zheng Wei Zheng's mansion.

As Wei Zheng's son Wei Shuyu was found by a ranger under Li Xiuning's command, Wei Zheng did not take the opportunity to find an official position for Wei Shuyu, and Wei Shushu fell in love with the Tang Dynasty University of Technology located outside Chang'an City.

Although Chang'an City is only more than 60 miles away from the Tang Dynasty University of Technology in Qinglinli, in this era, even if the cavalry walks slowly, it will take an hour. Usually, Wei Shuyu lives in the campus building of the Tang Dynasty University of Technology, and at this time, there are no weekends and two weekends.

Chen Ying also followed the customs of the countryside. Datang University of Technology and various workshops under his name all adopted the four-day style of January, and the four days of the first and second day of the first and second day of the 15th and sixteenth day of the 15th and sixth day of the 15th and sixth day of the 15th and sixth day of the 15th and sixth day of the 15th and sixth day of the 15th and sixth day of the 15th and sixth day of the 15th and sixth day of the 15th and sixth day of the 15th and sixth day of the 15th and sixth day of the 15th and sixth day of the 15th and sixth day of the 15th and sixth day of the 15th and sixth day of the 15th and sixth day of the 15th and sixth day of the 15th and sixth day of the 15th and sixth day of the 1

It was Xunxu's turn, and Wei Shuyu took a bus and returned to the Duke of Zheng from Chang'an from Qinglin.

The four-wheeled carriage running on the road is even faster than riding a horse. The key is to save money. The journey of more than 60 miles can only charge six cents per way. If you buy a monthly ticket, it only costs three hundred cents a month. Of course, three hundred cents is also a great burden for ordinary craftsmen.

The monthly ticket for the unblocked train in the Tang Dynasty is not invalid next month. It is a 300-cent ticket, which can take thirty round trip tickets. For each trip, use a hole puncher to make a round hole on the ticket, which is counted as billing.

When Wei Shuyu returned home from the Qinglin, he saw Wei Zheng slightly drunk and seemed to be in a good mood.

Wei Shuyu stepped forward and asked, "Dad, what kind of happy event did you encounter?"

Wei Shuyu was also a little confused. Faced with the aggressive Tubo delegation who came to ask for marriage, Wei Zheng, who ranked first among the six prime ministers of the Tang Dynasty Political Affairs Hall, had almost no joy in the past few days.

Wei Zheng nodded and said, "General Chen has sent troops... General Chen is the emperor's knife-

Wei Shuyu looked at Wei Zheng in surprise.

Wei Zheng smiled and explained: "This knife is very useful. Cut gold and jade, and cut iron like mud. In the first year of Wude, the Turks invaded Lingzhou. This knife slaughtered more than 20,000 people under Shibi Khan's command; the Hedong rebelled, and this knife slaughtered Liu Wuzhou again; then, the battle of Luoyang, the battle of Hebei, the chaos of Hebei, and the Western Regions, this knife was invincible... Now it is a Tubo."

Wei Shuyu frowned tightly, obviously a little unhappy.

Although Wei Zheng was his father, he was a student of the Tang Dynasty University of Technology after all. In the University of Technology, Chen Ying's resume was memorized by almost every college student. In fact, if Wei Zheng didn't say it, he was more familiar with Chen Ying's everything than Wei Zheng. Of course, this was all on the surface.

Wei Zheng said: "This knife is unsheathed, and the world is going to be in chaos!"

Wei Shuyu immediately replied without hesitation: "The Tubo people insulted me, the Tang Dynasty and threatened to invade the Tang Dynasty. Shouldn't they fight back? Oh... My father meant that General Chen did not ask for an order... Although the child did not understand military affairs, he knew that the general was outside, and the king's order did not give him any advice. General Chen had no order to send troops without the king's order, so he should have difficulties!"

Wei Zheng shrugged, not caring about Wei Shushu's bad attitude, and said lightly: "The war has begun now. Is the reason... still important?"

Without waiting for Wei Shuyu to answer, he smiled bitterly and said, "It's so peaceful... it's really hard!"

Speaking of this, Wei Zheng turned around and looked at Wei Shushu and said, "The Tang Dynasty is not ready to solve the Tubo problem, and the court has no time to care about Tubo... Goguryeo has had abnormal movements... It's a turbulent autumn!"

Wei Zheng did not explain some things to Wei Shuyu. After all, Wei Shuyu was just the prince of Zheng, not an official. In fact, officials of the Tang Dynasty may not necessarily know such a high-level secret.

If the king is not secret, he will lose his ministers; if the ministers are not secret, he will lose his official position. Wei Zheng is still very clear about this principle.

At the last critical moment of the Eastern Turks, Jie Li Khan fantasizedly formed an anti-Tang alliance, calling on all the countries around the Tang Dynasty to work together to attack the Tang Dynasty.

However, the appearance of Chen Ying disrupted Jie Li's deployment. Before Jie Li could complete this deployment, the Tang Dynasty uprooted the Eastern Turks, the backbone of the anti-Tang alliance.

At this time, Jie Li Khan was forbidden in Chang'an City. During state banquets or major festivals, Li Jiancheng would ask Jie Li Khan to go to Tai Chi Palace to dance a Hu Xuan dance.

Of course, this was the biggest insult to Jie Li Khan.

However, this just confirmed that the Tang Dynasty was not satisfied with its territory. Just after Jie Li Khan was captured and the Eastern Turkic tobacco disappeared, the Tang Dynasty war machine did not stop.

Chen Ying led the soldiers of the Anxi Army to embark on the Western Expedition, while the Tang Dynasty issued special funds to build the Five-Tooth Warship, and used the young and strong people who were good at water in the Jianghuai Kingdom to organize and train the navy troops. Even the 80,000 naval troops under Xiao Xian, who had been dismissed, returned to the military camp under the conscript of Li Jing. Although the old and weak were removed, the 80,000 naval troops of the Xiaoliang Kingdom only retained less than 30,000 troops.

These various accidents undoubtedly confirm the prophecy that Jie Li contacted the countries during the anti-Tang alliance: "The Tang Dynasty was greedy for territory, and they wished they could plant the dragon flag of the Tang Dynasty wherever the rivers arrived and the sun and the moon shone on it!"

Tubo, which is closest to the southwest of the Tang Dynasty, took the lead in making moves. Of course, this threatening proposal is actually Tubo's test of the Tang Dynasty, and they test the bottom line of the Tang Dynasty.

The little overlord Goguryeo, located in Liaodong, could no longer sit still.

To put it, Goguryeo and Tuyuhun were almost the same. Murong Tuyuhun, the eldest son of Murong Shegui, the leader of the Xianbei Murong tribe, (actually, the Xianbei people had no idea of ​​being passed down to the chief in this era). When Murong Shegui was alive, he divided seven hundred herders to Murong Tuyuhun. Murong Tuyuhun and his half-brother Murong Tuyuhun both herd horses and sheep. The horses fought each other, and Murong Tuyuhun's horse was injured. Murong Tuyuhun was very angry and sent someone to say to Tuyuhun: "My father separated us, why don't you let the horses go away, but let them fight each other and hurt each other?" Murong Tuyuhun said: "Horse are animals, eating grass and drinking water to make a living. The spring breath is activated, so how can the horses fight and fight and get angry at people? It is easy to separate completely, and now you will leave ten thousand miles." So Murong Tuyuhun drove the horses westward.

Later, these 1,700 Xianbei Murong herders formed a powerful country, namely Tuyuhun.

The same is true for Goguryeo. In 37 BC, Prince Zhu Meng of Fuyu fled from Fuyu Kingdom to Wuyuan to establish Goguryeo. However, Goguryeo's fate was bumpy, and they were determined to dominate, and China was the hurdle they could never overcome.

As early as the decisive battle between the Eastern Turks and the Tang Dynasty, Gao Jianwu, the King of Goguryeo, sent a large number of detailed works to sneak into the Tang Dynasty and search for information. When Li Jiancheng learned about Li Shimin's news and developed the power of the Tang Dynasty's navy, Gao Jianwu was panicked.

The countries around the Tang Dynasty almost all directly bordered the Tang Dynasty. Only the Korean Peninsula, if you take a boat from Jiaodong, you can reach Pyongyang for up to four days.

Now, the Tang Dynasty is working hard to build the Five-Tooth Warship, and Gao Jianwu mistakenly thinks that the Tang Dynasty is preparing to fight Goguryeo. At that time, Li Jian became a concealer of Li Shimin's news and declared to the public that he would attack Goguryeo.

Goguryeo naturally would not wait for death, and even did not even go through diplomatic procedures, so it directly expanded its military and prepared for war.

Gao Jianwu was also a smart person. He believed that there was almost no possibility of military victory over the Tang Dynasty.

But, not absolutely.

For example, like in the Ninth Year of Daye, Goguryeo could win without a fight.

...

At this time, there was a famous person living in the Tai Chi Palace in Chang'an City. This person was no one else, but Li Yuanji, the former King of Qi, and now a commoner.

Li Jiancheng was a soft-hearted person. Even though Li Yuanji committed the crime of treason, Li Jiancheng did not kill Li Yuanji to prevent future troubles.

Although Li Yuanji was demoted to the common people, Li Yuanji still enjoyed the salary of the prince, food, clothing and expenses, and the original treatment, but he had no official position.

Follow the palace corridor and pass through Xiadumen (the first gate from the east end of Chang'an City in the south. It is located in the northwest of the Great Poplar and the north of the second village of Xiao Baipod.), and you can reach Da'an Palace.

Li Yuanji is fine usually, so he can play mahjong with Li Yuan or row a boat in Xiyuan Lake.

Li Yuanji and Li Yuan played mahjong all night long. Li Yuanji yawned and returned to Chengyi Palace.

Just as Li Yuanji was about to go to bed, as a general, his alertness made him feel a little bad.

"who!"

As he spoke, Li Yuanji pulled out the sword at the head of the bed.

"Your Highness, please be fine!"

A warrior in black samurai uniform jumped off from the beam of the bedroom, and said slowly with a slightly crappy Tang Yan: "Su Gavin in Xiayuan!"

Li Yuanji was sure that he definitely didn't know Yuansu Gaiwen. Moreover, Yuansu was definitely not a Xianbei surname.

Li Yuanji said: "Yun Su Gaiwen, what is your hiding head and tail?

Yuansu Gavin gently lifted the black scarf from below, looked at the sword in Li Yuanji's hand, and smiled faintly: "Your Highness, is this your way of hospitality?"

Just then, footsteps came from outside the hall.

Xie Shufang, the commander of the Protector of the Prince of Qi's Mansion, spoke out: "His Royal Highness, what happened to you?"

Li Yuanji hesitated for a moment and said, "It's okay!"

Yuansu Gavin was very satisfied with Li Yuanji's reaction. He sat very naturally on the Jindun opposite Li Yuanji, and as if he was at his own home, he reached out to pour a cup of tea.

Li Yuanji looked at the three knives behind Yuan Su Gavin, and his eyes were dull and uncertain. His eyes fell on Yuan Su Gavin's hand, with thick calluses. Li Yuanji was naturally not afraid of Yuan Su Wen. If he had to hold the horse spear, Li Yuanji would be confident that he would be called father for ten rounds.

The key is that now he doesn’t have a horse spear in his hand. Li Yuanji sighed and said, “What’s the point of doing?”

Yuansu Gavin smiled faintly and said, "Your Highness, how are you doing lately?"

"Okay..." Li Yuanji thought to himself: "That's a big deal!"

But he is not stupid either.

Although I don’t know how Yuansu Gavin entered the heavily guarded Chengyi Palace, Li Yuanji reserved it before Yuansu Gavin revealed his intention.

In fact, Li Yuanji really judges the king with the heart of a villain.

After Li Jiancheng solved the worries of famine in Guanzhong and defeated the Eastern Turks, he expanded his territory for thousands of miles and had already settled. He was not even afraid of Li Yuan, so how could he be afraid of Li Yuanji, a naughty child who never grew up.

Yuan Sugavin also showed his maturity that was incompatible with his age and smiled and said, "Your Highness, King Qi, please introduce yourself first. I am Goguryeo, the son of Lu Yuan Taizuo, and the eastern mattress Sayuan Sugavin!"

When Li Yuanji heard Goguryeo, his eyes showed a trace of light.

The mattress was an official position in Goguryeo and could correspond to the general manager of a state in the Tang Dynasty. Of course, the mattress in Goguryeo only had a city and several military towns. The military town was equivalent to the Zhechong Prefecture of the Tang Dynasty. At its peak, Goguryeo had more than 300 military towns, with a number of people ranging from 500 to 1,000.

Li Yuanji said: "And what..."

Yuansu Gaiwen said: "Originally, we could send someone to see His Highness the King of Qi. In order to show our Goguryeo's sincerity, I came."

Li Yuanji nodded. It is undeniable that as a powerful minister of Goguryeo, he expressed his sincerity to Lu's son, Yuan Sugavin.

However, Li Yuanji smiled playfully and said, "You are a warrior, and I am also a warrior. You don't have to learn those big headscarves. You can do so many twists and turns. Just say anything!"

"It's refreshing, I knew that Your Highness of the King of Qi is a refreshing person!" Yuan Su Gaiwen said: "We Goguryeo intend to be friends with the King of Qi, so I came to Chang'an with sincerity!"

Li Yuanji sat down and said slowly: "What sincerity?"

Yuansu Gavin lowered his voice and said, "Support Your Highness King Qi to be the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, our two countries will always be in love with Qin and Jin!"

Li Yuanji sneered: "When is it your turn to Goguryeo to make the decision in our Emperor of Tang Dynasty?"

Yuansugavin said: "Fifty thousand men!"

"Even if there are 100,000 troops, can you try to break through the Anton Army's defense line?" Li Yuanji's smile became stronger and said, "Li Shiji is not that waste to Li Yi!"

Yuansu Gavin nodded and said, "Yes, I admit that Anton Army is a bit difficult. What I want to say is that we can give His Highness the King of Qi 50,000 troops!"

Power is like an addictive poison. If Li Yuanji is not moved by Yuan Su Gavin's words, it is definitely a fraud.

Li Yuanji knew that what Yuan Su Gaiwen said was just a painting cake and it was impossible to fulfill it.

Although there are more than 300 military towns in Goguryeo, only about 150,000 troops were killed, and they would never be able to hand over one-third of the troops to his hands.

Li Yuanji smiled and said, "Don't force me to kill you. I admit that swordsmanship is not my strength, but it's not that easy for you to kill me. Should you bet on a bet, which one of us will die first!"

Yuan Su Gaiwen thought about it and suddenly realized, "Oh, what Your Highness King Qi said, do you think I have deceived Your Highness?"
