Chapter 874 A full stomach is the most important thing
There was silence in the main hall. The emperor was excited to go to war. The sharp weapon in his hand was the batch of gunpowder. But suddenly someone told him that it was not ready yet. When the emperor wanted Li Xiang to do it, Li Xiang said no.
Given enough time, this seemed impossible in the feudal dynasty, because the emperor's will was irreversible, but at this moment Li Xiang was really on top.
Li Shimin was panting with anger at this moment, but there was nothing he could do to Li Xiang. After all, this matter was your mistake. Li Xiang was about to take over everything at that time, but Li Shimin thought that Li Xiang wanted to dominate the gunpowder, so he
I left this matter to Li Tai. As a result, Li Tai was procrastinating in doing things, and later he was delayed because of his trip to Tuyuhun. Can he still blame others?
"Then tell me, how can I have enough gunpowder on the battlefield?"
In desperation, Li Shimin could only bow his head again, but it was different from the last time. Last time, Li Shimin knew what Li Xiang wanted. This time, Li Shimin didn't know what Li Xiang wanted, so he could only go slowly step by step.
, the so-called hot tofu can't be eaten in a hurry, he has to see what Li Xiang is asking for.
"Your Majesty, everything has its own laws. For example, if we pull out the grass growing on the ground and encourage it to grow, then the grass will die. The same is true for gunpowder. If there is not enough
If we have time to prepare, the gunpowder may be substandard. Once we use substandard gunpowder, let alone kill the enemy, we may not even be able to save our own lives. Please think twice, Your Majesty."
Li Xiang seemed not to answer Li Shimin's question, but in fact he also answered Li Shimin's question. Your will is important, but your will cannot violate the laws of nature. The emperor is the greatest in this court, but if you violate it
If you violate the laws of nature, you will be counterattacked by God.
"The 200,000-strong army is ready. Is it delayed just because of this small amount of gunpowder? You have to resolve this matter. If you have any demands now, just tell me. I will satisfy you, but the army will set off.
On that day, this batch of gunpowder must keep up."
Li Shimin said arrogantly and unreasonably, but in fact, people who are familiar with Li Shimin can see that although Li Shimin said something very arrogant, there was actually a bit of compromise in Li Shimin's words.
"When we return to the emperor, if this is the case, we can only recruit craftsmen at a high price and let them do it on the road. But if this is the case, we must have some stable carriages, and they must be separated from the army.
, if something happens in the middle, a single spark may reimburse many people. This is actually a very dangerous behavior, and my grandson does not approve of it."
Li Xiang started to make suggestions. What this guy said was very simple, but some people heard it. You want to make gunpowder on the road, and these people are far away from the army, but these people are very important, and there must be something in between.
Send someone for protection. If the emperor sends someone else there, you will probably say that this person is not suitable, so you can only send your own people for protection.
Li Shimin has now thought about it. If you want to see these gunpowder on the battlefield, you must agree to Li Xiang's request. Some people did not understand Li Xiang's request, but Li Shimin did understand it very clearly, that is
Form your own army and then master these gunpowders on the battlefield.
Cheng Yaojin realized it later, but he also knew what his son-in-law was thinking. If this matter were to be realized as the son-in-law wanted, then part of the credit must be given to Li Xiang. Everyone knew that the gunpowder was on the battlefield.
So powerful that Tuyuhun's people suffered a big loss. When the victorious master returns to the court in the future, will Li Xiang's contribution be less?
Of course, there is another result, that is, Li Shimin gave up using these gunpowders. As long as he gave up using these gunpowders, then this matter would not be a problem. You can just fight in the original ancient way, and maybe you can finally do it.
You won, but it’s hard to say how many casualties there were. Anyway, the last time Li Xiang fought on the grassland, his casualties could be said to be minimal. If your casualties increase exponentially, what will happen even if you win?
Everyone will also say that this is a miserable victory for you.
Anyone who has read military books knows that a tragic victory cannot be called a victory, and our losses will even be greater. Therefore, if you want to pursue such a victory, it can only be said that you do not understand military skills.
If there was a war with Tubo, it is understandable that the casualties would be too high. After all, there is not much difference in strength between the two empires. Goguryeo can only be said to be a regional power. When it attacked Goguryeo, it caused huge casualties. What would the people do?
What do you think? You may think that our emperor no longer knows how to fight. If His Highness Taisun is allowed to go down, the result may be even more different.
Li Shimin had clenched his fists at this moment. Wang De was frightened beside him. If the Emperor and His Highness Taisun had a conflict in the main hall, it would be difficult to talk about it. Wang De knew what Li Shimin was thinking.
, but be sure not to make a big mistake. If His Highness the Great Grandson is young and energetic, and the two of you really fall out, it will only be a small blow to the safety of the Tang Dynasty!
Wang De calmly organized the memorial for Li Shimin. When Li Shimin saw something moving next to him, he immediately got himself out of the corner. You must know that Li Shimin basically did everything from the day he became King of Qin.
No one dared to disobey him, including his father. Now a boy dared to threaten him. This was a great insult.
But now Li Shimin came to his senses. In fact, if you think about it carefully, Li Xiang did not do things too much. It was actually Li Shimin who went too far. Li Shimin also knew what he had done recently, but if he didn't do this, Li Shimin would
His strength will become stronger and stronger, and it will be impossible to contain him in the future.
"If that's the case, then I'll leave this matter to you. If you have anything to discuss with General Li Jing, let me know after discussing it."
The ministers of the imperial court all breathed a sigh of relief. They were all afraid that Li Xiang and Li Shimin would face each other. If you two faced each other, let alone the expedition to Goguryeo, the court would have fun.
We feel a little more secure, but enemies everywhere are watching here. We must not let anything happen inside, lest the wolves around us come up to bite us.
