Chapter 0973 Fang Xuanling and An Xiuren live like a year
After Li Yuanji was speechless and Li Shimin had nothing to say, he glanced coldly at Li Shiji, who had already hit his head on the case a few times and said: "What are you still doing here? Do you have nothing to do? The gathering place I asked you to build has been established.
Have the people, cattle, sheep and horses been distributed?"
When Li Shiji heard this, he quickly pulled his head out of the case, shook his head like a rattle and said, "No, it's not over yet. I'll do it now."
After saying this, Li Shiji rolled and crawled out of the Chinese army's tent as if he had been hit by an arrow in the butt.
After Li Shiji left, Li Shimin clenched his fists, threw up his sleeves, and left the Chinese army tent sulkingly.
Seeing the curtain that had been lifted twice in a row swaying continuously, Li Yuanji took a deep breath, and then let out a long breath, exhaling all the depression in his heart and chest.
The Tang Dynasty had such good conditions, but instead of trying to establish an unprecedented hegemony, why did it always keep fighting among each other?
If fighting in the inner circle can rejuvenate the country, then the Song, Ming, and even the Qing Dynasty, which had fierce party conflicts, may have unified the country.
However, judging from the outcomes of the Song, Ming, and Qing dynasties, fighting among each other not only failed to rejuvenate the country, but also led to its defeat.
The conflict between civil and military officials and civil servants in the Song Dynasty not only caused serious internal strife in the Song Dynasty, but also caused the Song Dynasty to not even have a unified rhetoric or ideas when facing foreign enemies.
The civil servants of the Ming Dynasty had serious internal party disputes, so much so that the Manchus entered the country. Only half of the Ming Dynasty was left, and the civil servants were still busy fighting in the party.
As for the Qing Dynasty, let’s not mention it. It fought among itself and made more concessions than the Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty. It was even worse.
It can be seen from this that fighting between nests is the greatest harm to all dynasties in the Central Plains.
Although Li Shimin was a tycoon of his generation and one of the few emperors in history, he still could not avoid fighting among himself.
Even now, Li Shimin has lost all his power and has become a commoner, but what he thinks most about is fighting in the nest, instead of assisting someone to achieve unprecedented hegemony, or to get out of the Tang Dynasty and live in the Tang Dynasty.
Build another Tang Dynasty outside.
If Li Shimin, and even the vast majority of people in the Tang Dynasty, could give up fighting among themselves, run the Tang Dynasty together, and create great achievements together, then both the Tang Dynasty now and the Tang Dynasty in history would surely be glorious to an unparalleled level.
It's a pity that neither Li Shimin nor the vast majority of people in the Tang Dynasty would give up fighting among themselves.
This is past history and the curse given to them by past experiences.
In history, many people have tasted the sweetness of fighting in the nest and found that it is much easier and less troublesome to deal with their own people than the enemy, so they will involuntarily go to fight in the nest.
After they taste the sweetness of Woli Dou, they will become deeply obsessed with this taste and will do this to the extreme.
Those who follow me will prosper, and those who go against me will perish. I would rather teach me to bear down on the world than teach the world to betray me. This is an important manifestation.
These words sounded domineering, but they were full of the flavor of fighting in a nest.
If everyone could put down their fights, look at the neighbor's territory together, think about the neighbor's territory, and think in one place and work hard in one place, then who would say such a thing?
All those who are in power, and those who are about to take power, will only say that the whole world is not the land of the king, and the shore of the land must be my race.
All the nobles, all the nobles, will only consider the neighboring neighbors that have not been conquered. After conquering, how much land, how much wealth, and how many slaves they can get.
Everyone only worries that their neighbors do not have enough land, not enough money, and not enough slaves.
Instead of worrying that your family will not be able to bear the heavy endowment and be exploited enough.
Therefore, uniting and looking outward together is the foundation for rejuvenating the country. If you only focus on the inside, you will only fight within yourself and will not end well.
Every time Li Yuanji encountered this kind of thing, he would think that this might be a yoke placed on the Han people by God, and this yoke was not used to protect the Han people, but to restrain them.
The purpose of its existence is to restrain the Han people and prevent them from going out to eat other animals. Its function is to give other animals a way to survive.
After all, for thousands of years before the Qing Dynasty, the Han people were at the top of the world in all aspects. Once the Han people left the Central Plains and set their sights on all places outside the Central Plains, and coveted everything outside the Central Plains, then other countries would
It is very likely that countries and other ethnic groups will completely disappear from the earth.
Some people may say that before science and technology developed and before transportation reached modern standards, even if the Han people went out, they would not be able to spread around the world, let alone conquer the world.
Then you are wrong.
During the period of Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang, the Han people occupied only a small corner of the Central Plains.
The Han people finally conquered the Central Plains through continuous annexation and digestion.
In the earliest times, the method of annexation and digestion was to enfeoff important ministers or royal families and let them establish countries in various places. With them as the main body, they could take root, multiply and develop in various places.
When people in various places are highly similar or nearly unified in customs, culture and other aspects, then these places become a corner of the Han family and a frontier of the Central Plains.
The latecomers only need to further complete the unification and integration on this basis, and then they can completely turn these places into a corner of the Central Plains.
This is how the Central Plains was formed.
When the territory reaches a certain limit and the existing transportation can no longer meet the needs of governance, new transportation methods will emerge.
For example, Qin Zhichi Road.
If new modes of transportation do not emerge, then new ways of governing will also emerge.
For example, the four great khanates divided by Kublai Khan.
Therefore, whether the Han people can spread all over the world and conquer the world, the problem is not technology or transportation, but thinking.
If this ideological confinement is broken and the Han people are allowed to go out, then the Han people will have many ways to spread around the world and conquer the world.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Whether it is to imitate the enfeoffment method of Yu, Xia, Shang and Zhou to slowly digest and integrate, or to imitate the Yuan Dynasty to establish unique political systems to rule these places, you can
Help the Han people spread around the world and conquer the world.
If these two methods cannot meet the needs of the Han people, the people in power or the wise will come up with new methods.
In the history of feudal dynasties in the Central Plains for more than two thousand years, the way of ruling the country was not static, but was constantly changing.
From the initial county system, to the nine-level Zhongzheng system, to the three-province and six-ministry system, to the cabinet system, and so on.
They are constantly changing and constantly making adjustments according to the needs of governance.
Therefore, once the Han people go out, they will definitely be able to think of a governance method or system that meets the needs of governance.
Therefore, nothing is an obstacle for the Han people to go out, only ideas are.
What Li Yuanji needs to do now is to break this kind of thinking.
To break this kind of thinking, we cannot use the method of advocacy, nor can we use the method of statement or propaganda to anyone.
Because in this era no one will recognize it and no one will understand it.
So it must be broken in the most traditional and simple way.
That is to do it directly.
When it is done, everyone sees the benefits and shares the benefits, and then you tell them the reason and lead them to do it together, then they will flock to it.
After all, no matter how many great principles and inspiring preaching, they will not be effective in terms of tangible benefits.
No matter whether you are learning this or teaching that, it is not as practical as attacking the local tyrants to divide their land.
The result...is naturally self-evident.
…
In the next half month, Li Shimin didn't know whether he was autistic due to the rebuke or was still sulking, and he never showed his face. Li Yuanji did not rush to argue with him, but signed the contract hurriedly.
Li Shiji established a gathering place, dispersed the people, divided sheep, cattle and horses, all of which required his signature.
Li Jing, Li Shenfu, Xie Shufang, Li Junxian, Hou Junji and others won battles and conquered some Turkic tribes. Documents verifying their achievements and corresponding reward documents also needed to be signed.
Each storage point also needs to sign documents related to the delivery of cattle, sheep and horses in the storage point with the three provinces and the Ministry of Civil Affairs, as well as the prisoners.
Li Yuanji completely transformed into a signing machine, frantically slapping his name and various opinions on various documents.
In addition to signing, we also need to pay attention to the wars on the three battlefields of Tuyuhun, Liang Kingdom, and Dahe Alliance.
On the Tuyuhun side, Murong Shun has officially declared war on his brother Dayan Mangjiebo. The slogan of the declaration of war is 'unify Tuyuhun and rebuild the Murong clan'. As the suzerain state, the Tang Dynasty was trying to help Murong Shunqing suppress the rebellion and help the Murong clan.
Joining the war under the banner of rejuvenation.
Therefore, not only Murong Shun's soldiers and horses participated in the battle, but also Datang's soldiers and horses.
In the middle, the Tang Dynasty occupied an absolutely dominant position. Not only did it dominate all wars, but even the 30,000 Tuyuhun cavalry under Murong Shun had to obey the dispatch of the Tang Dynasty and cooperate with the Tang troops and horses in combat.
Li Yuan, Qu Tutong, Li Gaoqian and others gradually let go of themselves in the process of conquering Dayan Mangjiebo, a Tuyuhun rebel, and helping Murong Shun "restore the country".
Some strategies and tactics that they dared not think of or use in the past have been used by them.
All kinds of fancy operations emerge in endlessly.
The Fire Ox Formation, Fire Sheep Formation, and Fire Horse Formation frequently appeared on the battlefield between Datang and Tuyuhun.
Fang Xuanling and An Xiuren were so shocked by the coquettish behavior of Li Yuan and others that they almost wrote a letter a day, begging Li Yuanji to transfer them quickly, otherwise they were afraid that they would not survive this year.
Especially for An Xiuren, as the nominal commander-in-chief of Longyou Road March of the Tang Dynasty, and as the nominal commander of the Tang Dynasty in conquering Tuyuhun's rebellion, his days were really like years.
Every day when he opened his eyes, there were several old men surrounding him, instructing him on how to arrange his troops and how to fight.
He was completely unable to express his own opinions, and he was completely unable to lead the war that he was nominally commanding.
More importantly, he clearly cannot have his own opinions and lead this war, but he still has to have his own opinions and lead this war.
Why is this?
Because every time after the old men gave him instructions, they would ask him what he thought and what he planned to do.
It was not okay for him not to answer, because the one who led the way was someone who was unwilling to disclose his life, but his whole family, and even the three clans, could not afford to offend him. The accomplice was the head of the An family, and his eldest brother An Xinggui.
