Li Tai had already prepared the gift and was waiting at Li Jing's doorstep.
When Li Jing came back from the palace, Li Tai came to the door with a gift, hoping to ask for Li Jing.
Li Jing frowned when he heard Li Tai's arrival, but after thinking about it, Li Jing still let Li Tai enter the door.
"Congratulations to General Manager Li for becoming the commander of the conquest of Tuyuhun. Because Aye granted me the captain of Zhechong and obeyed the orders under your command, but this is my first time leading the army and I know nothing about the battlefield, but I came to General Manager Li for you.
Ask for advice!”
Li Tai said this, took out a book and handed it to Li Jing’s table with both hands, saying:
"I know that General Manager Li is here to be honest and doesn't like to get into trouble. I have a copy of "Ma Dian" here, which is considered a deal with you. I hope you can give me some advice."
Li Jing was stunned when he looked at the "Ma Dian" sent by Li Tai and said to Li Tai, "The King of Yan is frank!"
Li Tai smiled, but he just looked at Li Jing quietly, watching whether Li Jing would accept it or not.
To be honest, Li Tai feels that it is better to be straightforward when dealing with Li Jing.
The reason is very simple. Li Jing’s political stance is basically a fence, while Li Jing’s political attitude is basically non-stick.
It is very unrealistic to rely on Li Jing to win over. Li Shimin can only keep him neutral, so he still goes directly to the transaction.
Li Jing picked up Li Tai's "Horse Dict" and read it, but saw that what was written above was basically the rules and classics for caring for horses, precautions for protecting war horses, as well as the correct use of various horse props.
Simply put, this thing has nothing to do with the gorgeous articles of literati, it only has real information about horses.
In the eyes of people, this kind of thing is hard to find, but it is a rare treasure.
Moreover, this is indeed the first time that Li Jing has seen such a detailed summary of all aspects of horses.
Li Jing looked at this book "Ma Dian" and said, "Who is this book written by? The content is very concise."
"The editor-in-chief Wang Xuance, together with pastoral teachers from other agricultural institutions, compiled the precautions for horses.
Manager Li likes it, so it’s great!”
Li Tai looked at Li Jing, but he was relieved.
Li Jing looked at the books in his hand and shook his head helplessly. He had known that King Yan liked to give gifts the most. He originally thought that he could not move to the gifts given by Li Tai, but in the face of pure knowledge, he really couldn't refuse.
ah!
Li Jing smiled bitterly and said, "Why should the King of Yan give such a heavy gift? The saint entrusted you to me, so I will naturally not ignore it!"
"Mr. Li, I am willing to obey your orders on the battlefield and will not violate your orders. You even use me as cannon fodder. As long as it has this value, I will never say anything." Li Tai looked at Li Jing but expressed his opinion first.
road.
When Li Jing heard Li Tai's words, he just laughed and said, "King Yan! On the battlefield, although swords and guns are eyeless and water is ruthless, I will not ruin my elites in the Tang Dynasty for no reason. King Yan, you are too worried!"
Li Tai nodded and just continued, "I just made a statement to you, and I support Mr. Li to manage any of your dispatch.
At the same time, I came here this time, but I just wanted to ask you if my father gave me the title of Zhechong's lieutenant, instead of directly participating in the conquest under the name of King Yan, is there any additional meaning?
You are the commander-in-chief of the First Army, I think you can help me solve my doubts.”
Looking at Li Tai's puzzled expression, Li Jing explained, "Generally speaking, Zhechong Mansion is in charge of the government soldiers, with 1,200 people in the upper house, 1,000 people in the middle house, and 800 people in the lower house. If you encounter an unexpected situation, you can
An additional three hundred people were added.
The saint asked the King of Yan to conquer Tuyuhun for the Zhechong School Captain, so he gave you 1,500 places. At the same time, with your personal soldiers, you can dispatch a total of 2,000 people."
"I can dispatch two thousand troops to this expedition..." Li Tai looked at Li Tai and said, "But my subordinates are not registered in the office.
After all, I turned out to be the prince, not the Zhechong Commander of Zhechong Mansion. Where did my military soldiers come from!"
"Did King Yan remember Lu Chuzhi!" Li Jing said, "He has a group of people with talent in the War Department!"
Li Tai clenched his fists when he heard Li Jing's words, frowned and replied, "They are not soldiers, how can they go to the battlefield!"
"I haven't experienced any wars and fights, but I can have the talent of the War Department in my daily farm work. They are already the best soldiers I have ever seen!"
Li Jing shook his head when he heard Li Tai's words,
"If such soldiers do not go to the battlefield to seize fame and reputation, but instead let them work in the fields, wouldn't it waste their talent in the war department?"
Li Tai frowned and couldn't help but deepen.
Li Tai didn't know what Li Jing thought alone or what the entire society thought.
In fact, in Li Tai's opinion, the talent of the War Department is just a tool. At most, this tool has a bit of fantasy color, but in essence it is just a tool.
And since it is a tool, it can ultimately serve to improve productivity.
But this is not the case in the eyes of others.
They have no concept of productivity. In their opinion, what tools do they have at the first time are whether they can kill people.
So Li Tai created a soldier who did not experience any war or consumed a lot of supplies. Instead, he trained his war department talent through military music and normal work, which was really covetable.
So Li Shimin wanted to see the true strength of this militia, and Li Jing also wanted to polish it.
For the two of you here, what military uses to convert them to civilians? Think about how many troops in the Tang army have the talent of the War Department. Now that this militia has the talent of the War Department, no matter what, throw it on the battlefield to see the performance.
.
As long as it is better than other militias without the talent of the War Department, this kind of thing will have mass production value and can even replace a large number of palace soldiers.
To be more precise, it is to combine the mansion soldiers with this model to improve the basic quality of the Tang army.
Li Tai understood that Li Shimin must have been instructed by Li Jing to do this, but in Li Tai's opinion, it is too luxurious to just consume the talents he had finally cultivated on the battlefield as soldiers.
Why are people in the modern army the most precious? The most important reason is that a qualified soldier needs to be trained from childhood to adulthood and needs to meet all the standards from body to mind. Only this is the only one in a thousand.
.
But on the battlefield, perhaps the one who killed them was just a small bullet, which made these twenty years of investment waste.
Now Li Tai's farmers who seem to work in the farmland are the same. For Li Tai, the agricultural institutions have gradually been able to steadily cultivate them for four years, and then they worked in the collective farm model for a year before they were cultivated.
Get them.
Every one of them died was really heartbreaking for Li Tai.
If Li Tai was just taking his own soldiers there, he would naturally be willing, but with these people, Li Tai was really reluctant to let go. If he went to the battlefield, he would really die, but there was no absolute safety.
place.
"I understand!" Li Tai nodded, "That is to say, I have two thousand direct soldiers this time, right?"
"If you understand this way, there is no problem!" Li Jing nodded and said to Li Tai.
"But it's okay for my personal soldiers. They are my personal soldiers and have the right to directly collect armor from the court.
But they were not soldiers, and suddenly they were asked to go to the battlefield, and the court finally solved the problem of weapons and armor for them.
Even I can't change these things to them!" Li Tai said.
"Your right to be salt and iron, you may not be able to get the armor, but for weapons... you should always get two thousand gun tips, but if you want to get the pole, you will have a spear. This battle for the war department
The talent is control, so you should be able to master it quickly!”
"..." Li Tai didn't say much when he heard Li Jing's words, but just looked at Li Jing in silence.
Li Tai was silent for a while and said slowly, "I will solve their weapons."
Everyone can get long-handled knives, long-spike javelins, bent bows and arrows, and close-fitting daggers before the war, and will let my personal guards teach them how to operate and train as soon as possible.
But please prepare all the armors of these two thousand soldiers. I hope that the entire army can be fully equipped with armors."
Hearing this, Li Jing looked at Li Tai with some surprise, feeling that he underestimated Li Tai.
After all, although the Tang Dynasty did not have strict controls on various iron weapons, it was not possible to get these things out in a short time.
But now, it is obvious that the King of Yan only has two things, armor and crossbows, and cannot prepare them in a short time, so they will ask for them. Otherwise, with the King of Yan's character, they should not be able to find themselves in material reserves.
"...Okay!" Li Jing thought for a while and said, "For the sake of this book "Ma Dian", the transaction has been completed!"
"Thank you, General Manager Li!" Li Tai expressed his gratitude to Li Jing when he saw that Li Jing agreed.
To be honest, this requirement is not a difficult task for Li Jing.
Because the armor of the Tang army was above the fifth floor, the armor of the palace soldiers was generally in the Zhechong Mansion, and they were only assigned to the palace soldiers when the war began.
But in fact, the so-called average thing is really too easy for modern people to understand.
Basically, soldiers led by soldiers like Li Tai, or those who are commanded by brave generals who fight will give priority to the distribution of armor.
This principle is like the government has any benefits. Basically, the village party secretary and other managers must be the first to get it. The principle is that simple.
What's more, Li Jing never wanted Li Tai to be hurt.
Under such circumstances, the equipment given to Li Tai will definitely be fully prepared, otherwise there will be no eyes on the battlefield. If something happens to Li Taizhen, Li Jing will be in trouble.
"In addition, King Yan, you are one of the founders of the medical camp. You are the one who understands how to use the medical camp, so the medical camp is also dispatched to you directly." Li Jing looked at Li Tai and said, "I don't know if you want to do this arrangement. Do you want to do this?
?”
"If so, then Qingque will thank General Li!" Li Tai was stunned when he heard Li Jing's words, but expressed his gratitude.
No matter what, the medical battalion is not a military force that will go directly to the battlefield, and it is relatively safer.
When Li Jing saw Li Tai agreeing, he felt a little relieved.
To be honest, this time when Li Shimin went to the battlefield, he got a weakness, and it was a headache for Li Jing to arrange it. In this case, Li Tai and the medical camp should be put together.
After all, the medical camp itself is also a weakness in the army. Now that there is one more king of Yan, there is one more king of Yan.
Moreover, although the medical battalion is a military organization, it is not the kind of guy who fights directly on the battlefield.
In this case, as the head of the medical camp, I can also have reason to arrange Li Tai in the rear when I go to war.
Anyway, as long as a large-scale war occurs, I will let Li Tai stay in the camp and protect the medical camp. This is better than the King of Yan going to the battlefield and then accidentally disappearing if he is blind.
After all, Li Tai is Li Shimin's son, how could he really let him go to an overly dangerous place?
Li Tai chatted carefully with Li Jing and finally figured out some details when he set off.
Li Tai did not stay here for Li Jing, so he immediately said goodbye to Li Jing, and he also needed to arrange his affairs after he left.
Li Tai returned to the Yue Palace and immediately sent someone to notify his subordinates, and agreed to go to Gaoling Academy to discuss matters tomorrow.
The main reason is that Du Chuke, as the magistrate of Gaoling County, is not convenient for him to come to Chang'an, and he has made many arrangements and needs Gaoling to transfer. In this case, he should go to Gaoling by himself and integrate everyone.
In fact, it was not just Du Chuke, but just his own personal soldiers. There were only 200 people who actually entered the Yue Palace. The rest of the personal soldiers were also staying in Gaoling and handing them over to Ren Yaxiang for training.
Well, when Li Tai left, he still pried Ren Yaxiang from Su Lie's hand, mainly responsible for his usual personal training.
Su Lie certainly refused.
But as the saying goes, it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. Since Li Tai unconditionally met the suggestions put forward by Ren Yaxiang.
Ren Yaxiang said, Su Sima, we can't go back.
Compared with the fact that almost everything in Youzhou is just starting out, Gaoling has been in precipitation in recent years.
The system planned by Li Tai was naturally filled with talents from various subjects from the Agricultural Institution.
In fact, the various hardware facilities in Gaoling are much more perfect than those in Youzhou. It can only be said that Ren Yaxiang can no longer go back.
Li Tai did not hide the idea of Li Tai's convening Bai He, so naturally he did not mean to hide Li Shimin.
Although Li Tai understood that Li Shimin wanted to suppress him and give Li Chengqian enough stage, Li Tai understood even more that Li Shimin would never be his enemy, but his confidence.
If you want to hide Li Shimin's affairs, you can only be in your heart, but in your actions, you must be upright.
After all, my many attempts have proved that I can only do things that are beyond my reach, but if I have to use my power and other things, I will only be simply beaten.
