As I grow older and live a peaceful and peaceful life for many years.
Li Shimin's edges and corners have gradually been smoothed.
Although his royal demeanor is becoming more and more intense, at the age of thirty-six, he has lost the sharpness and domineering spirit of his youth.
If it had been earlier, how could the Tibetan envoys have yelled in front of him, or even bribed ministers?
If not, the envoys will be driven away on the first day, and Li Jing's troops will reach the Tibetan mainland on the next day.
Li Shimin also realized this, so he is now more and more anxious to train Li Chengqian.
The purpose is extremely obvious.
If a king loses his domineering power and edges.
Then the country's progress will stall.
Although the current Tang Dynasty is very powerful, it is also unable to achieve real long-term peace and stability as Li Chengqian said.
If you want to achieve your own ideals and goals.
That really requires a group of young people to do it.
…
Manna Hall.
Li Taina was very anxious when he learned that Li Shimin had returned to the palace, and hurriedly sent someone out to inquire about the news.
Now he was eager to see Li Chengqian deposed as prince.
Even if you can't cripple him and let him get beaten up and make him sick, it's still good.
But who would have expected that the person who came back to report the news said that Li Chengqian was safe and sound, and that he and Li Shimin took a carriage back to the East Palace.
At this time, Li Tai was a little confused.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible."
"How could my father be so calm when he knew he was out drinking and sleeping with prostitutes?"
He grabbed the little eunuch who came to report the news and said, "Did you see clearly that nothing happened to him, he was not limping, and he was not punished?"
"No."
The little eunuch was also frightened by Li Tai's appearance at this time.
He hesitated and said: "Your Majesty... Your Highness is really safe and sound, and... His Majesty looks very happy."
"The two of them were chatting Wait, while entering the palace..."
Hearing this, Li Tai was completely stunned.
What's going on?
Could it be that Li Shimin went to play with Li Chengqian and had a great time?
This is impossible, this is not Li Chengqian's style, let alone Li Shimin's style.
Li Tai couldn't figure out the reason at this moment.
But how did he know that he was just used as a gun by Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian knew that all he had to do was come out and do something for Li Tai's people to see.
Li Tai would immediately run to Li Shimin to complain.
In that case, Li Shimin would get wind of this and come to trouble him.
And he could also take advantage of this opportunity to let Li Shimin capture him and drive the Tibetan envoys out of Chang'an City in one fell swoop.
But who could have imagined that something like that would happen in the end?
Li Tai obviously couldn't sleep that night.
He even sent a large number of manpower to Li Chengqian's side to check the situation.
But in the end the result is the same.
Li Chengqian was safe and sound, and Li Shimin left after chatting with Li Chengqian in the East Palace. There was no "father is kind and son is filial" incident between father and son.
…
At the same time, on the other side.
As the rebellion in Shu subsided, the Xiangyang soldiers stationed in Shu took the lead in withdrawing.
The Liangzhou Army left 50,000 soldiers and horses under Liu Qi's charge, who was responsible for taking over the work of the "original Shu Army" and stationing them everywhere.
As for how long the garrison will last, it depends on Li Shimin's official dispatch and the recruitment of soldiers and horses in Shu itself.
But based on the current situation, Liu Qi and the others will have to stay there for at least half a year.
But it was at this time.
Southern Xinjiang
Erdu Rong, the leader of the Sixteen Kingdoms, began to make moves.
Even in one day, he violated the border several times.
Of course, what they call offending is simply a feint and test of hitting and running.
Feng Guangyao, who was responsible for guarding the border, was also very angry about this matter.
The next day, Liu Qi, who heard about this incident, ran to the border alone and found Feng Guangyao.
He asked straight to the point: "What are the current trends of these barbarians?"
"Toads crawl on the insteps and don't bite, but they are disgusting."
Feng Guangyao has a bad temper, and he has been troubled by these barbarians recently.
After all, he couldn't send troops casually without orders from above, so he could only endure it.
"I'm telling you, these barbarians are going too far."
"In the past few days, the most I could do was run to the city wall and pee, which was disgusting."
"But in the past few days, several hunters have been kidnapped and even massacred by them."
Feng Guangyao looked directly at Liu Qidao: "Why don't you just report it to His Highness and lead someone to kill him."
"If people knew that our Liangzhou Army was bullied by a group of barbarians, we might even be laughed to death..."
Hearing this, Liu Qi couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Feng Guangyao is still Feng Guangyao.
"There is no need to report."
Liu Qi rubbed his chin and said: "When His Highness left, he also gave me the right to dispatch troops in wartime..."
As he spoke, he looked directly at Feng Guangyao and said, "But do you think that by doing this, does it count as a formal declaration of war with us?"
"Of course."
Feng Guangyao said without thinking: "This is all happening right under our noses. Can we just ignore it?"
"That's true..."
Liu Qi stood up and looked at the map behind him, and said: "The southern border area is complex, with changing mountains and rivers, and many jungles. It is not suitable for cavalry combat, and it is also not suitable for the application of Zhenguan artillery." >
"So, maybe this time, we have to return to the original state to fight this battle."
Hearing this, Feng Guangyao snorted coldly and said, "What are you afraid of?"
"Our Liangzhou Army was already invincible in the world without the Zhenguan Cannon."
"What we are facing now are just a bunch of young people, so why should we be afraid?"
"Moreover, we are not familiar with the terrain, but of course someone is."
Feng Guangyao said: "I have more than a thousand veterans of the Shu army under my command. They have all entered southern Xinjiang. Let them lead the way for us."
"This is a good idea."
Liu Qi nodded, then raised his hand and slapped the map and said: "In that case, let's hit it directly."
"yes!"
"Tomorrow, I will gather my troops."
Feng Guangyao was also upset by this group of people, and he longed to go out and teach them a lesson.
Now that he had Liu Qi's order, he was even more excited.
He clapped his fists and said, "Let's let them know how cold the wind from the northwest is..."
Perhaps Erdu Rong actually wanted to test the current defense situation in Shu.
But he clearly messed with the wrong person.
The Liangzhou Army is different from the Shu Army.
Under Li Ke's governance, the Shu army was more like a Confucian army.
Everything is very reasonable. As long as you lay down your weapons and surrender, you will definitely not be killed.
But the Liangzhou Army is different.
For a long time, Li Chengqian led this army upholding a tradition.
One word, wolf.
Two words, tiger and wolf.
As long as the enemy still dares to resist and has the ability to resist, then we must fight the enemy to the end.
As long as there is a city still attacking one's side, that city must be destroyed as well.
Erdu Rong could never imagine in his wildest dreams what kind of existence he had provoked...
