There is also an atmosphere in Chang'an City these days, and this atmosphere is that of the upcoming victory.
Although many people are not sure yet, everyone also knows that a big thing is going on in the south, that is, the chieftain system that has troubled the Central Plains Dynasty for hundreds of years may be about to collapse. No one has ever sent troops to fight on our mountain.
, but this time our great grandson has done it again.
"Yizhou Urgent Play."
The sun has not yet risen in Chang'an City that day, and the report from the south has already arrived at the city gate. According to the court's system, as long as there is an urgent report from outside, they should open the city gate in advance.
"Brother, did Yizhou win another battle?"
A captain on the city wall directed his men to open the door while asking the soldier who was delivering the message below. Ordinarily, he had no right to ask this question. If the people above knew about it, he would lose his position at the least and lose his position at the worst.
Might be sent to jail.
But it's not yet dawn, and there is no one else around at all. Apart from the soldiers under him, there are probably only soldiers delivering orders outside the door, so he is a bit bold, and they have been paying attention over there.
Now that a memorial has finally been announced, how can I suppress my heart?
"hey-hey……"
Although the captain could not suppress his curiosity, the soldier who delivered the message under the city wall was extremely principled. The guy raised his head and smiled. The smile on his face was very bright. Although he did not answer the question, from this smile
It can be seen from the article that the Sichuan chieftains should have been dealt with.
"The two guards on the left and right accompanied the messenger to the imperial city."
The captain did not show off his joy, but ordered his left and right hands to follow on horseback. The people who came to deliver the message were not familiar with the situation in Chang'an City. This was a common thing, so the Ministry of War issued the order early. If there was a foreigner with the surname Shi
, then personnel must be sent to follow in order to deliver the memorial as quickly as possible.
After receiving the order, the two cavalrymen galloped into the city with the messenger. The sound of horse hooves in the early morning was very harsh, but the people of Chang'an City were foresighted about politics, so many people heard the sound of horse hooves.
, I instantly remembered the recent things about Yizhou.
The letter was sent to the Ministry of War, and then the officials of the Ministry of War were sent to the palace. It was not yet time to open the palace gate, but this was indeed a happy event, so the officials of the Ministry of War were waiting at the gate of the palace early. According to the rules for incoming letters,
Level, this matter is not the highest level, so they can only wait here. If foreign troops come in, then they can directly beat the Wendeng drum.
When the drums sound, it means that there is a war on the border somewhere in the Tang Dynasty. At this time, the rules in Chang'an City are no longer rules. The emperor must open the palace door as soon as possible, and then let the people in the palace
Officials from outside came in to report in order to give instructions to the front line as quickly as possible.
Today was supposed to be a court meeting, but it was not yet time for the morning court. Li Shimin saw that several important ministers had come in from outside. Before he had finished his breakfast, they were already holding a memorial. This must be
There is another news from Li Xiang.
Regarding the matter of Li Xiang going south to marry, Li Shimin at first just hoped that Li Xiang would not cause trouble. As for the chieftains in Sichuan, Li Shimin also wanted to deal with them, but unfortunately they had been kings in the local area for a long time.
, even if Li Xiang's army is powerful, they may not be able to go directly to the mountain. Chang'an City will be ruined, and even if they win, it will not be a good thing.
But later, according to Xiao Yu's memorial, Li Shimin learned that Li Xiang had other methods. Perhaps he could deal with the chieftain on the mountain without using force. If this was really the case, it would definitely be written in the history books.
The officers and soldiers fighting on the front line deserve the most credit, but if it were recorded in history books, Li Shimin would definitely be ranked first.
Feudal society is like this. No matter what achievements you have made on the front line, if there is no emperor who knows people well and does not have the emperor coordinating the overall situation in the rear, how can you achieve such a victory? So no matter what you have achieved
With this kind of credit, the emperor's credit is ranked first. If you don't even understand this, then you probably won't be able to survive in the court.
So on the surface Li Shimin didn't care much about this kind of credit, but in fact he sent his cronies to Li Xiang because he was afraid that something would happen to Li Xiang, and in the end good things would turn bad. Not only would Li Xiang's reputation be affected, but even Li Xiang's reputation would be affected.
It also brought some adverse effects to Li Shimin.
"The thick smile on your faces, dear friends, must be because something good happened to that brat. Don't talk about the content first. Let me take a guess. The last memorial was about the second son of Longchuan Chieftain.
Ready to submit, he should be the one who controls Longchuan Chieftain now, right?"
To be honest, Li Shimin is actually extremely disgusted with things like his son controlling me. When he ascended to this position, he controlled his father. Confucian scholars everywhere despised him.
Even after being emperor for so long, this matter still cannot be revealed.
But if this happens to the enemy, Li Shimin will be very happy to see it. No matter what method Li Xiang uses, as long as these chieftains can fight among themselves, it will be a good thing for the entire court.
If this dynasty can accomplish things that he failed to achieve, it means that the emperor of this dynasty is much wiser than the previous dynasty, and our achievements are much greater than yours.
Nowadays, many people are talking about the early years of the Sui Dynasty. They say that the population during the Zhenguan period was less than half of that of the early Sui Dynasty. Li Shimin was very unhappy about this matter. Now there is finally something that can surpass Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty.
How can Li Shimin not look forward to it? During the reign of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, he claimed to unify the world, but do you have the ability to face the chieftains of Sichuan? Those people are not treating you the same as they are treating me.
"The emperor did not guess the content of the memorial correctly. The actual progress is much faster than we predicted. We will not explain too much. The emperor still has to take a look for himself."
Li Jing, the Minister of War, said cheerfully, and then placed the memorial in front of Li Shimin. Li Shimin's eyes widened...
