Chapter 1989 This shameless look is very similar to your father
Li Shimin and Li Ji looked at this young man with obviously darkened faces.
Zhao Kun on the side almost burst into laughter. This kid might be bragging.
Why can't you brag? You have to do it in front of His Majesty and Li Bingbu. It's not like you don't know the minds of these two people. Ahem...
These two big guys are thinking about national affairs, but you kid is talking nonsense, so be careful to punish them.
Just when Zhao Kun, who had a very serious expression, was complaining frequently in his heart, Li Ji suddenly slapped his forehead and burst into laughter.
"You are so shameless and talkative, you look just like your father back in the day."
"Pfft..." Li Shimin, who had just taken a breath and took a sip of tea, couldn't control it and almost lifted the tea bowl in his hand.
"???" Cheng Sanlang glared at Uncle Li who liked to harm others most when doing things with a black look on his face. His words didn't sound like he was being obedient.
Li Shimin couldn't help but picked up the handkerchief and wiped the tea stains on his beard, and nodded in agreement.
"When you said that, I really remembered that my nephew is really not laughing at you, he is praising your father for his ability."
Just praise others, do you deserve to smile like this? One or two of you, unfortunately you are still an elder and you are not upright.
Li Ji coughed twice, finally looked like he was talking seriously, and asked Cheng Chubi.
"Hmm, let's not talk about that. My dear nephew, I probably know what you mean. Are you planning to go to Luzhou to recruit ruthless people?"
"Not only the Liren, but also the Six Imperial Edicts of Erhai." Cheng Chubi nodded and gave his answer.
"To be honest, even if my uncle wants to raise a large army to attack Tubo, I will advise him not to use Guanzhong soldiers and horses, because it will be difficult for them to adapt to the plateau environment."
"But, in the beautiful Southwest, those people originally lived in Yunnan and Guizhou... ahem, they originally lived on the plateau.
Although the altitude may not be as high as the geographical location of Tubo, the long-term living environment is similar..."
"My dear nephew, wait a minute. What does altitude mean?" Li Shimin was helpless. This guy always liked to come up with new terms when talking about things.
"Uncle, the so-called altitude refers to the vertical distance above sea level of a certain point on the ground.
Of course, it doesn’t matter if you don’t understand what altitude is. Let’s just say it is like a mountain. The altitude at the foot of the mountain must be low, and the altitude at the top must be high.”
"How could I not understand?" Li Ji immediately bulged his eyes. He always felt that Cheng Sanlang always liked to bury people.
"Chengchengcheng, both uncles can understand that this is the best thing."
What else could Cheng Chubi say? He just hoped to give them a step-by-step explanation.
However, these two old men thought that they had insulted them. Who could they ask to reason with?
In later generations, Cheng Chubi was born in the beautiful Southwest and lived at high altitudes for a long time.
So after jumping to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, there was almost no discomfort.
Of course, this also requires altitude adaptation first, that is, a period of adaptation at a medium to high altitude.
For Cheng Chubi and his classmates from high-altitude areas in the southwest, there was no discomfort at all.
However, those medical students who have lived in low-altitude areas for a long time are prone to difficulty adapting.
Especially for people whose physical constitution is not very good, various minor problems such as dizziness and headaches arise in endlessly.
This is of course not nonsense, but has scientific basis. In those years, as far as Cheng Chubi knew, almost everyone who joined the army went to Tibet or went to Yunnan for a stroll.
This is because people from Yunnan, Guizhou and western Sichuan are more likely to adapt to the high altitude of the plateau.
I heard Cheng Sanlang talk about the impact of high altitude on humans who live in low altitude areas for a long time.
Li Ji looked at Cheng Sanlang in astonishment and said after a long time.
"At that time, Shibao sent his army to attack Jiannan Road in the Tang Dynasty, and at that time I led my army to help.
Many soldiers have experienced similar situations as Cheng Sanlang said, but those beasts rarely appear. Even if they do, they will recover quickly."
"So this actually has something to do with altitude?"
Cheng Sanlang looked at Li Ji who was explaining to Li Shimin seriously and almost burst into laughter.
"My nephew, I remember that Fang Erlang said that you always have headaches or can't eat..."
Li Ji never thought that this bastard Cheng Sanlang would reveal his dark history at this time.
His eyes bulged, and his saliva almost hit Cheng Sanlang's face.
"Shut up, kid. I'm talking seriously to His Majesty. What are you doing to me?!"
If he hadn't been worried that His Majesty was right in front of him, Li Ji would have wanted to pick up a big stick and chase this little bastard out of Luoyang for exposing his elders' background.
At this moment, Li Shimin could only lower his head and cough several times, and then he rubbed his face vigorously and raised his head.
Well, the elders are not like the elders, and the juniors are not like the juniors who expose each other's history. Please can you be more serious. Although you can have fun, you still have to do serious things.

"Okay, you two come here..." Li Shimin felt that he could no longer let the old man and the young man make trouble here, so he quickly got up and walked towards the sand table.
Looking at the huge sand table, Li Shimin looked at it for a long time, then turned his head and looked at Li Ji.
"What do you think, Qing?"
"If this kid Cheng Sanlang can recruit some miscellaneous soldiers in Jiannan Road, from south to north, as long as they can make some noise."
"It is indeed possible to contain Tubo, and I will lead a small number of elites to cooperate with Tuyuhun soldiers and horses to defend against Tibet's northern invasion. There should not be too much of a problem."
Having said this, Li Ji raised his chin provocatively towards Cheng Sanlang.
"My dear nephew, it's not difficult for me to help you. As long as you can send troops from Jianchuan City and attract part of the Tibetan troops here, you will be considered a big help."
Li Shimin stroked his long beard, his eyes were full of sparkles, and he had to admit that this kid Cheng Sanlang was really not an ordinary guy.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the border between Tuyuhun and Tubo, and this guy immediately thought of jumping to the south of Tubo to cause trouble.
This idea is indeed very attractive. Even if Tubo is not as vast as the Tang Dynasty, Tubo is not small. If Cheng Sanlang can really pull out a mixed army of young men from all ethnic groups in Jiannan Road, Tubo will mistakenly think that
Datang wants to start from there.
It would certainly be able to contain Tibet's energy, troops and horses, and not dare to go north with all its strength. This would weaken the huge pressure that Li Ji had to face.
