Chapter 0986 The grassland is not that grassland either

Although the fate of Li Shimin now is completely different from that of Li Shimin in history, he is still the same person.

What Li Shimin liked in history will also be liked by Li Shimin now.

Therefore, if Xue Wanche is under Li Shimin's account, Li Shimin will still die for him personally.

"Second brother, you just can't eat the grapes and say the grapes are sour!"

Li Yuanji unceremoniously exposed Li Shimin's true face.

Li Shimin became angry from embarrassment and glared fiercely.

At this time, Xue Wanche, who had gone down to wash up, broke into the tent again. This time, he only had a piece of crotch cloth and nothing else, and the skin on his body became red.

After he entered the tent, he knelt down on the ground again happily and said: "Go back to your highness, I have already washed myself."

When Li Shimin saw Xue Wanche like this, his face was full of contempt, and he raised his eyebrows at Li Yuanji with a half-smile.

Li Yuanji understood what Li Shimin meant. Li Shimin was asking him, "Look, this is your favorite general."

Not only are there no rules, but etiquette is also disregarded.

According to the etiquette system, any official who meets the king must be neatly dressed and show all manners.

Even if we meet on the battlefield, we can't dress neatly, but we still have to be polite.

But Xue Wanche not only broke into the tent without going through the notification, but also didn't even put on any clothes.

This is already a huge faux pas.

In the Tang Dynasty, being disrespectful would be punished.

However, Li Yuanji did not blame Xue Wanche for this. Xue Wanche, a fool, came in wearing a loincloth and was all red. It was obvious that after leaving the tent just now, he took off his clothes and then washed himself with the snow outside the tent.

Once again, he hurried back again.

His sincerity was beyond all courtesy.

"No need to be polite, just get up."

Li Yuanji raised his hand to Xue Wanche, and then motioned to Chu Suiliang to take a big cloak and put it on Xue Wanche. Then when Xue Wanche grinned, he said angrily: "Don't do such nonsense in the future, I will condone you.

Others don’t.”

Xue Wanche nodded with a smile and said honestly: "I know..."

Li Yuanji nodded and motioned to Xue Wanche to find a place to sit. After Xue Wanche had settled down, he said, "Now can you tell me why you came so late?"

Xue Wanche had already experienced the consequences of lying once, and naturally he did not dare to lie again. He immediately said embarrassedly: "I dare not deceive Your Highness. When His Highness summoned the minister to come here for an audience, I was still in Jizhou, accompanying the two men."

My brother conquered the Dahe clan.

When I received the call from His Highness, I originally wanted to come over immediately, but the Dahe family went too far and actually slaughtered the people who had plundered from our Tang Dynasty at this time. I was so angry that I led my troops to kill them again.

I went out and slaughtered eighteen pastures of the Dahe family, and then I straightened out the tension in my chest."

When it came to this point, Xue Wanche became even more embarrassed and said hesitantly: "Then I came late..."

Li Yuanji shook his head and smiled: "Then you came up with a trick full of flaws, saying that your leg was broken and you couldn't get here in time to escape my punishment?"

Xue Wanche scratched his head in embarrassment.

Li Yuanji pretended to be dissatisfied and snorted: "Do you believe that I really broke your legs?"

Xue Wanche looked stern and shook his head quickly: "I won't dare to do it next time!"

Li Yuanji snorted and said: "I'm sorry you won't dare to do it next time. However, you can stand up when the Dahe people are slaughtering the people of the Tang Dynasty. This shows that you care about the people of the Tang Dynasty in your heart."

of.

Based on this alone, I can ignore all the mistakes you have made."

Hearing this, Xue Wanche smiled sheepishly and said: "I don't know if I have the people of the Tang Dynasty in my heart. I was very angry when I saw the Dahe people slaughtering the people of the Tang Dynasty. I wanted to kill their heads."

Twist them all off and let them be buried with the people of the Tang Dynasty."

Li Yuanji nodded and smiled: "This just shows that you have the people of the Tang Dynasty in your heart, otherwise you would not be so angry and stand up when the people of the Tang Dynasty were being slaughtered."

Xue Wanche was not polite at all, he laughed and said: "Your Highness said that I have it, so I have it."

Li Yuanji nodded and continued to smile: "I have punished you by making you wash the toilet for half a month. You can go back and clean up, and go to Shuofang City as soon as possible.

Once you get there, follow Su Dingfang's orders."

When Xue Wanche heard this, he said enthusiastically: "Is there a battle going on in Shuofang City?"

Li Yuanji nodded.

Xue Wanche then said: "But beating Ashinabil?"

Li Yuanji nodded and said yes.

It's strange to say that Xue Wanche looks like a fool in terms of politics and conduct, but in terms of military affairs, he is not only good at fighting, but also has a very keen sense of smell.

Li Yuanji just told him to go to Shuofang City, and he already guessed that there might be a war in Shuofang City, and even guessed who he was going to fight.

This is probably the door God opened for him.

"I will go back and pack my things right now."

After getting the affirmative answer, Xue Wanche stood up without even thinking and walked out impatiently.

He is obviously a warlike guy. When he hears there is a war, he doesn't even care about etiquette.

Li Yuanji didn't argue with him and just let him go.

After all, as a healthy and normal person in all aspects, if you argue with a fool, you will fall into the inferior category.

After Xue Wanche left in a hurry, Li Shimin suddenly said: "Do you really want to go to war with Ashinabil?"

Li Yuanji nodded without hesitation.

This was a strategy that had been decided a long time ago, and he had no intention of changing it.

Li Shimin couldn't help but frown and said: "Ashnabil has inherited all the territory and troops of Suni Shi, which is difficult to deal with. It is not a wise choice for you to declare war on him in a hurry now."

Although the prestige of Ashinabili in Turks is far less than that of Jieli, it is not even as good as Ashina Simo and Ashina Sheer.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But the Turkic territories inherited by Ashinapil, as well as the Turkic soldiers and horses, are more complete and more united than Jieli's.

Therefore, it is far from easy to conquer.

After all, when the Tang Dynasty conquered Jieli, Jieli had actually reached the point where everyone had betrayed his relatives. Not only did Xue Yantuo, Huihe and other tribes betray him, but even Sunisu and Ashina Simo refused to help him.

The tribes he can use are actually the Geshu tribe, the Pugu tribe, the Shihuoba tribe, the Ashina tribe, the Ashnad tribe, and other tribes.

After Li Jing raided Yinshan, defeated some of his Geshu, Pugu, and Ashina tribes, and forced him to abandon his troops and flee, his strength was exhausted.

His subsequent counterattack in Monan was nothing more than a desperate struggle. It did not pose any threat to the Tang Dynasty at all, let alone prevent the Tang Dynasty from conquering the Turks.

Therefore, the Tang Dynasty's war against Jieli had already ended when Jieli was defeated at the foot of Yinshan Mountain.

The situation with Ashinapil was different. Ashinapil completely inherited all the territory and troops of Sunis. Except for Ashinasheer who defected with his people midway, the remaining tribes were very

Stand firmly by his side.

Therefore, it was not easy for the Tang Dynasty to conquer him.

Although the outcome will still end with Datang winning, the process will never be as easy as conquering Jieli.

Datang will definitely have to fight some tough battles and pay a certain price.

And now it's winter again.

Marching in the Tang Dynasty in the winter was not easy. To declare war on Ashinabil at this time, the Tang Dynasty would have to pay a higher price.

Li Shimin spoke at this time not to stop the war, but because he did not want Datang to pay more.

Li Yuanji let out a long breath and sighed: "I don't want to declare war on Ashinabil at this time, but the officials can't wait, and the Western Turks' unified Yehu Khan can't wait either..."

Li Shimin knew very well why the officials couldn't wait.

Because the officials felt that the Tang Dynasty had been out fighting for a long enough time, and the major enemies that needed to be dealt with had been dealt with, and the rest could be dealt with later.

Therefore, we hope that the army will return to the DPRK, stop fighting, and recuperate with the people.

This was also the purpose of the officials who had previously made a fuss about Chai Shao's affairs to force Li Yuanji to return to the court.

But why Tong Yehu Khan couldn't wait any longer, Li Shimin didn't know. He pondered: "Did something happen to Tong Yehu?"

Li Yuanji shook his head slightly and said: "It's not that there was an accident, it's that he is about to die of old age."

Li Shimin stared in shock.

Li Yuanji continued: "A few days ago, Li Jing wrote a letter saying that after Ashina Sheer fled to the Western Turks, he fought a big battle with Yi Nan and Huang Tou. At the critical moment of their battle, the Wang Zhang Army under Ye Hu suddenly

He rushed out and caught them both off guard.

Second brother should know what this means."

Li Shimin solemnly nodded and said: "This shows that Tong Yehu is afraid. Only if he is afraid, will he choose to take action brazenly when Ashina Sheer and Yi Nan are fighting."

Li Yuanji nodded and said: "Yes, this shows that Tong Yehu is afraid. But why is Tong Yehu afraid? Based on what Tang Jian learned from the Western Turks, and what we learned from the powerful Ye Hu.

You see, Tong Yehu is an extremely conceited person.

If he had no problem, it would be impossible for him to suddenly send people out during the battle between Ashina Sheer and Yi Nan.

He will only sit in his royal tent, waiting for Ashina Sheer and Yi Nan to compete with each other to find a winner, then go to his royal tent to worship him, and be subdued by him, becoming his dog and horse, and becoming his

Object of servitude.

But now, instead of sitting in the king's tent and watching the changes and enjoying the results, he took action brazenly.

That means something is wrong with him.

He must resolve variables such as Ashina Sheer and Yi Nan as soon as possible to avoid complications."

Li Shimin made the final decision: "He is a khan who rules the countries in the Western Regions. He can't even tolerate two little people like Ashina Sher and Yi Nan. That means he is dying soon. He is paving the way for his son."

.”

Today's Ashina She'er and Yi Nan are both small figures to the Tang Dynasty and to the Western Turks.

After all, the Turks they were loyal to had been exterminated. Those who had lost the protection of the country, even if they had thousands of troops, were just exiles, rootless duckweeds, and water without a source.

It may threaten a country for a while, but it is only for a moment and cannot last long.

Therefore, the monarch of any country will not regard them as a threat.

So they have been reduced from big shots to little guys.

If the monarch of that country regards them as a threat, it means that there may be a change of power in that country.

When the country changes, the country's political situation will become extremely unstable, all parties will win, and all kinds of people with ulterior motives will appear.

And it is very likely that they will be attracted by all parties and eventually gain power in this changing situation and become a threat to this country.

That's why Li Shimin said that Tong Yehu was paving the way for his son.
