Chapter 320 Benefiting the Tang Dynasty for a Century
Qinzheng Hall.
"This little bastard doesn't give me any peace of mind at all. I asked him to send me off to see him get married. Look at what he's done. I think it means we're going to have to fight again. You guys
The elders usually keep an eye on me, so I won't start a fight at every turn, and I don't know who to follow."
Although Li Shimin complained about Li Xiang, he was actually very happy in his heart. As a member of the royal family, he must always have an expansion mentality. If he only thinks about enjoying happiness every day, then the entire empire will not be able to think about peace in the future. You
When you don't count others, others are definitely plotting against you. By the time you come to your senses, it's already too late. We might as well keep plotting against others. At least our home is safe.
The ministers below curled their lips. Do you still need to ask? It must be up to you. You have been in war since you started the army in Jinyang. It is only in the past few years that it has been peaceful. It was only last year that Tuyuhun was surrendered.
After the war, there were not many other peaceful years. Even during the Taiping years of the Tang Dynasty, border conflicts continued.
In the eyes of these ministers, Li Shimin was a typical example of being a good boy. When faced with Li Chengqian and his brothers in the early years, Li Shimin always felt that these brothers were too indecisive and did not have any military ideas. Now there is a man like this.
Your grandson, and you blame him for not being peaceful enough, I really don’t know what your descendants should do to satisfy you.
"I have neglected my duty and please be punished by the Emperor."
Changsun Wuji was the first to kneel down. His people had been setting up operations in Tubo for many years, but there was not much useful information sent back over the years. This news from Li Xiang was placed in front of Li Shimin, which could reveal his people.
inability.
"Get up, get up. Today I want you to talk about this guy's strategy. Don't be busy reviewing it. I also know that it is very difficult to arrange detailed operations in other countries, not to mention that we have only been free for a few years.
Guilty and innocent.”
Hearing Li Shimin's words, Changsun Wuji breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Li Shimin would hold him accountable. Others around him also understood that we didn't have many businessmen going to Tubo, let alone setting up experts there.
, in their opinion, if Changsun Wuji could accomplish this matter, he was already much better than them. If it were them who had done it, they would probably have been dumbfounded a long time ago.
"Wei Chen thinks that this matter is too aggressive. In addition, the Tang Dynasty's treasury is not rich. If we support these chieftains rashly, the cost will not be small. In case they fail in the end and put these
If this incident is revealed, the relationship between Tang Dynasty and Tubo will definitely drop to a freezing point, and Tibet will most likely send troops to Tuyuhun."
Tang Jian, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, immediately stood up. He did not support anything related to the war, mainly because the Ministry of Revenue had no money. The war in Tuyuhun was another matter. That was because we received a large amount of war compensation, but Tubo could give
Do you have some?
Regarding his answer, Li Shimin also had a look of helplessness. Earlier, he had asked him to keep an eye on his money bag. This guy was indeed very careful, and he had never been greedy for a penny. He was also loyal to the court, but every time the court
When there is action, you wish you didn't spend a penny. How can there be such a thing in the world?
"I think this is a good thing. Although Tubo is relatively far away from us, since we occupied the land of Tuyuhun, we are actually not far away from Tubo. If we hurry up, we can reach their land in a day or two. Datang
There is a powerful country around us, which is a threat to us. If we can slowly weaken it without going through war, for me, the descendants of the Tang Dynasty, that will last for several generations..."
General Li Jing has a strategic vision. No matter which country is around, General Li Jing wants to weaken them. Now that the Tang Dynasty is on the rise, we are not afraid of a real fight, but after decades or hundreds of years, do you think those descendants will
Are you the same? If Datang becomes weak, these wolves will pounce on you immediately.
"The general is right, but how do we make it weaken? Now your strategy is right, but what is the specific method?"
Tang Jian never talks empty words, and he always gets to the point with every word he speaks.
"General Li is right, Master Tang is also right. As for our strategy, His Highness Taisun is on the way."
Seeing that the two were about to get into a dispute, Fang Xuanling immediately came out to argue. Of course, Fang Xuanling's answer was also correct. What are you two so worried about? Did Li Xiang send this letter back?
Is he really asking you what to do? He is asking you about the general direction and detailed matters, and he can decide on his own.
After everyone heard this, they quickly read the letter again. It was exactly what the Prime Minister said. What Li Xiang meant was to ask Li Shimin whether this matter could be done? As long as Li Shimin decides.
After setting a tone, the court does not need to worry about the next thing.
After Li Shimin listened to their analysis, he felt happy and a little disappointed at the same time. He was happy that this grandson made him worry-free. He could handle this matter with just an order from me. But he was disappointed that a child didn't need us.
, it seems that I didn’t give him any of my skills. How did this kid grow up? It’s like a father who can’t show off his abilities in front of his son.
"My dear friends, Xuan Ling is right, but do you think we should support him?"
Li Shimin knew that now was not the time to think about those things. Li Xiang should also be waiting anxiously on the road. We have to give him a message quickly. Maybe this guy has already made a series of plans and is waiting for someone from Chang'an City.
What about the signal?
"Dry."
General Li Jing was very supportive, and soon a large number of military generals gathered behind him. Yuchi Jingde and Cheng Yaojin were the most energetic. After careful consideration, Qin Qiong and others all stood behind General Li Jing.
Naturally, Fang Xuanling still did not express his position, and Mr. Tang of the Ministry of Finance had already expressed his opposition.
After Changsun Wuji thought about it again and again, he finally came to the opposing side. Now it's almost a tie. It depends on how Li Shimin decides.
Li Shimin had a lot on his mind. After defeating Tubo, it would benefit the Tang Dynasty for hundreds of years. However, the Tang Dynasty has just been pacified, and the war with the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes has begun...
