Chapter 0939 Suni loses his ability to remain neutral?
Li Shimin said with a smile: "I'm afraid that not only will the wealthy family not be able to get rid of Feng An, but they will become Feng An's assets."
Li Yuanji said with a smile: "You still don't understand the wealthy family."
Li Shimin's eyes widened when he heard this. I don't know the wealthy family well enough?
I, the Li family, am one of the wealthy families, okay?
As a direct descendant of the Li family, I don’t understand the wealthy family?
"Please tell me clearly, what does it mean that I don't understand the wealthy family?"
Li Shimin asked angrily.
Li Yuanji smiled, without further explanation, and continued: "When you send the message to Changsun Wuji, remember to remind Changsun Wuji that after Feng Ang invaded Linyi and occupied the city in the coastal area of Linyi
, immediately led people to build a pier and build a dock.
I hope that the wharf in Linyi can not only dock the ships of my Datang Dynasty, but also help my Datang Dynasty build ocean-going ships.
There are two roads into the west for the time being, one is from the Western Regions and the other is from Linyi.
As for the forces entering the west, for the time being, they are designated as our Tang Dynasty, Turks, Western Turks, Tubo, Tuyuhun, Tudi Jibu, and Linyi."
Li Shimin stared and said nothing. After a long time, he said angrily: "You can do whatever you want. Anyway, you have the final say in the Tang Dynasty, and I don't count."
Li Yuanji nodded and continued: "As for what you mentioned in your strategy, about meeting with the Turks, Western Turks, Tubo, and Tuyuhun people to discuss the plan to advance westward, I think the location is a bit inappropriate.
I want to change the place to Chang'an City.
Only by letting them see the prosperity of Chang'an and depicting the West as a hundred times more prosperous than Chang'an can they covet the West and follow us into the West."
Li Shimin curled his lips and snorted coldly: "Aren't you afraid that after they see the prosperity of Chang'an, not only will they not covet the West, but they will covet Chang'an instead."
Li Yuanji smiled and said: "Then show your strength appropriately and let them know that Chang'an is not easy to gnaw on, but the West is easier to gnaw on.
I believe that after they see the power of the Tang Dynasty, they will decisively give up the hard bone of the Tang Dynasty and gnaw on the soft bone of the West instead."
Li Shimin said disapprovingly: "What if someone wants to face the difficulties?"
Li Yuanji rolled his eyes at Li Shimin.
There’s no point in arguing!
"Then it's settled, the location is Chang'an. After we conquer the Turks, we will immediately launch an alliance with the Western Turks, Tubo, and Tuyuhun.
If they are interested and willing to enter the West with us, then we will start preparations immediately.
If they don't understand, then we will take the Turkic troops and plow through Lingzhou as we move westward."
Li Yuanji agreed.
There were Turks as pawns, and the Tang Dynasty itself was very powerful.
Whether it is the Western Turks, Tibet or Tuyuhun, they are not the same enemy.
If they know what they are interested in, then cooperation will benefit both sides. If they don't know what is interesting, then beat them severely and then take them to the West.
In any case, the Turks could not defeat the Tang Dynasty, but the Western Turks, Tubo, and Tuyuhun were still able to control the disaster.
"As for the matter of enfeoffing the members of the clan outside the Central Plains, when are you going to do it?"
Li Shimin asked with a hum.
Li Yuanji smiled and said: "According to your strategy, when we move westward, it is the time to divide the clans. However, I don't think that when we move westward, it is the time to divide the clans.
I will leave a piece of land for you and my eldest brother in the Turks and Tubo respectively, but how to do it and who to keep will be discussed after we have established a firm foothold in the West."
Li Shimin hesitated for a moment and said in a stiff tone: "Can you leave Cheng Qian in the Tang Dynasty? Your other nephews and I can go out, and we can even accompany you to the West together."
Li Yuanji was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Second brother still doesn't want to give up."
Li Shimin argued: "It's not that I don't give up, I'm just not sure what dangers I will encounter after entering the West, so I want to leave some incense in Datang."
Li Yuanji shook his head and said with a smile: "Then I still don't want to give up. Does the second brother think that after you and I leave the Tang Dynasty, Cheng Qian will have a chance to compete with Chengde?
Second brother, have you forgotten that we can come back anytime and anywhere?
Unless the second brother can kill me quickly after we leave Datang.
But I don’t think the second brother can still do this now.
So if the second brother really wants Cheng Qian's good, don't give Cheng Qian such hope.
Otherwise, even if you really give up, Cheng Qian will seek his own death."
Li Shimin gritted his teeth and said unwillingly: "Then you can just inherit Qian's seal and grant it to the Turks. No matter what, the Turks are stronger than the Tubos."
Tubo is located in a high and cold land, and many people from the Tang Dynasty were unable to adapt to the local climate after going there.
Therefore, it is difficult to manage Tubo.
In comparison, although the Turks are not as wealthy as the Central Plains, their territory is vast and very flat, making it easier to manage.
So when he had to choose between the Turks and the Tubos, Li Shimin helped his son choose the Turks without hesitation.
Judging from the world map, the Turks are indeed a good place and can develop whether heading east, south, west or north.
If Li Chengqian was sealed in the Turks, he could open up a road to the north.
Then he might be able to establish a dynasty that would not lose to the Tang Dynasty.
After all, there is soil in the north of the Turks that can establish a dynasty.
It's just that in history, no dynasty in the Central Plains has ever explored northward.
"Okay! I will give the second brother this face and seal Cheng Qian in Turk."
Li Yuanji agreed to Li Shimin's request.
After talking about this, Li Yuanji clicked on the paper roll on the table and said, "For the rest, let's just read it while walking?"
Li Shimin nodded and said nothing more.
In the next few days, Li Shimin hid in his room again and began to adjust the strategy he had written.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Li Yuanji once again paid attention to the war against the Turks.
After Li Junxian and Hou Junji opened gaps into the depths of the Turks from outside Qingzhou and Suizhou respectively, Li Jing pushed the front nearly a hundred miles north.
The army under Jieli's command was defeated one after another in front of the battle. Jieli was forced to concentrate his troops and stick to Dingxiang and other places. He also sent people to lose contact with Sunisi, hoping that Sunisi would temporarily put aside his hatred and join hands with him to resist the Tang Dynasty.
.
So far, Sunish has not made any response.
However, Xie Shufang, who went to separate Suni's lost tribe and Jieli's tribe, was attacked, and he was attacked from two sides.
Those who attacked him were Yang Zhengdao from the Jieli tribe and Ashina Sheer from the Suni tribe.
Although Xie Shufang did not suffer much losses, he failed to complete the military tasks he needed to complete, and failed to separate Suni's lost troops and Jieli's troops.
Li Jing had no choice but to give an order to Su Dingfang, asking Su Dingfang to lead his troops to attack Liang Division's headquarters in advance, putting pressure on Liang Division's headquarters and asking Liang Division to ask for help from Suni Shidu, thereby weakening Suni's division's strength.
At present, Su Dingfang has led his troops to attack and even defeated the four cities of Liang Division's headquarters within seven days. Liang Division's headquarters was in emergency and asked Suni Shi's troops for help, but Suni Shi still had no response.
The battlefield in Liaodong was similar.
After Pang Yu led his troops to support the Ta Strength Department, the Ta Strength Department barely gained a foothold in Yingzhou.
Tu Diji was still holding on at first, but when he could no longer hold on, he finally lowered his head to Datang.
Li Daliang, who had already been ready in Jizhou, immediately led his troops to the location of Tudiji's headquarters and helped Tudiji stabilize the situation.
Nowadays, the Takashi and Tudi Ji tribes are in a stalemate with the Dahe Alliance, and no one can do anything to the other.
Dahe Duluo, the leader of the Dahe clan, also asked for help from Suni's lost troops, hoping to use the power of Suni's lost troops to break the deadlock in Liaodong.
So far, Sunish has not made any response.
"Tell me, what does Sunisu want to do?"
After reading the battle reports from various places, Li Shimin frowned and asked.
It has warmed up in the north in May, and some places have even entered the sweltering season. However, it is still cold in the morning and evening in Lingzhou. You must wear thick clothes to stay in a pavilion with ventilation on all sides.
Li Yuanji clenched his sleeves filled with cold wind, pondered, shook his head and said: "I don't know, you said he has noticed that our Datang must win, and wants to fall to my Datang, but he hasn't made any move at all.
, did not even restrain his subordinate Ashina Sheer, and let Ashina Sheer and Yang Zhengdao attack Xie Shufang.
You said he wanted to work with Jie Li to resist the Tang Dynasty, but he didn't make any gesture in the face of Jie Li's invitation, nor did he send troops to help his former allies.
I don’t believe he doesn’t understand the meaning of lips dying and teeth cold.”
Sunisu is not as naive as Tuli. He doesn't understand any logic at all, he only knows how to be reckless.
He was able to lie dormant from the time when Qimin Khan was in power until Jieli came to power, and he was able to take away half of the Turks from Jieli when Jieli made a mistake in commanding the Turks. This shows that he is a man who knows how to tolerate and is also very smart.
people.
Facing the current situation, he couldn't help but know that only by joining forces with Jieli would he have a chance to survive in the hands of the Tang Dynasty. Either Jieli would lose, or Datang would win.
But he made no choice at all. He neither united with Jie Li nor showed favor to the Tang Dynasty to try to find a way out for himself.
What is he thinking about?
I can't guess either.
"He doesn't want to remain neutral, does he?"
Li Shimin suddenly said in shock.
Li Yuanji also stared in astonishment and said in disbelief: "No way?!"
In this situation, if Sunis remains neutral, what is the difference between that and waiting for death?!
Sunisu didn't think that Datang and Jieli would lose in a fight. He could just reap the benefits, right?!
is it possible?
Li Shimin spread his hands and said: "He neither helps Jie Li, nor does he show favor to the Tang Dynasty, nor does he even help his former allies Liang Shidu and Dahe Duluo. Doesn't he want to remain neutral?"
