early morning.

Not long after Li Yi'an came to the Tai Chi Hall, Li Shimin came.

After watching everyone salute, Li Shimin first focused on Li Yi'an and asked, "Li Qing, what happened to the southwest region?"

"Return to Your Majesty, the southwest region has recovered as before, and the place where Yaozhou natives live is now better than before."

Li Yi'an stepped forward and briefly reported the results of the past six months to Li Shimin.

These are written in detail in his memorial, and the current report is for others to hear.

This time, no one in the court said anything wrong with Li Yi'an. After all, after the news about Yaozhou came back, everyone who should know knew about it, and they still admired Li Yi'an's methods.

If he dared to object, it would only make Li Shimin unhappy.

People like Lu Deming and the others would only feel pity in their hearts, why Li Yi'an didn't die in the southwest region, and came back with credit, and was very jealous.

"it is good!"

Li Shimin shouted: "Li Qing is capable of writing and martial arts, can govern the country with literature, and can stabilize the country with martial arts. This is the great fortune of the Tang Dynasty. If I plan to let you lead troops to attack Liang Shidu, how about it?"

Li Shimin had already discussed this matter with Du Ruhui and the others, and told Li Yi'an in the imperial decree, but it was the first time to announce it publicly.

"If the minister is in Shuofang, the bones of Master Liang will be cold."

Li Yi'an said very confidently.

With the foreshadowing of the battle between Yaozhou and Rondo, everyone in the Tai Chi Hall no longer objected to Li Yi'an leading the army to fight.

"Very good, Li Yian listens."

Li Shimin was very satisfied.

"Chen is here!"

Li Yi'an bowed his hands.

"I named you General Zuo Wuhou. You will leave Chang'an within three days, go to Shuofang, and take the place of Chai Shao and Xue Wanjun to pacify Liangshidu."

Li Shimin continued: "In addition, I named Su Lie as the general of Zuo Wuhou Zhonglang, and Xue Li as the general of Zhonglang as the leader of the left army. Will you be able to assist you?"

At this time, among the people going to the southwest, only Li Yi'an can stand here, Su Lie and Xue Li are not qualified to go to court, the rewards will come down first, and someone will send them to them later.

As for the rewards of Changsun Chong and others, of course there will be no less. Li Shimin did not directly propose it in the court, but he will give it to them in private.

Hearing this, Li Yi'an clasped his hands and said again: "Thank you Your Majesty for your gift, I will definitely send Liang Shidu's head back!"

Next, everyone began to discuss the matter of the war against the Turks.

First, Zhang Gongjin put forward six favorable conditions for attacking the Turks, and then Li Shimin ordered Li Jing, Li Daozong and others to command [-] soldiers and horses, and divide them into six groups to attack the Turks.

These strategies are not much different from the historical events that Li Yi'an knows. The only difference is that the Turks are currently in civil strife caused by the sheep's skin. It will be much easier to attack northward, and the losses of the Tang army will not be too serious.

Regarding these strategic issues, Li Yi'an did not raise any opinions.

Until the end of the court meeting, Li Shimin left Li Yi'an again and went to the Ganlu Hall together.

"Sir, thank you for your trip to the southwest this time."

Li Shimin said gratefully.

"This is what the minister should do."

Li Yi'an said.

"If the two of you, Chai and Shao, are willing to follow your master's orders, there is no need for me to call you back from the southwest."

When Li Shimin mentioned this, his heart was full of displeasure, and he wished to punish them immediately, and said: "Sir, what suggestions do you have for attacking the Turks and avenging the Wei River?"

Li Yi'an thought for a while and said: "After returning to Chang'an, I watched the stars last night and calculated it again. This time I will win the battle against the Turks!"

"really?"

"I dare not lie to Your Majesty!"

"Okay, haha... Mister said he must win, he must win, but I have a task that I want to entrust to Mr., if Mr. is not willing, you can refuse."

For Li Shimin, Li Yi'an said that he must win this battle, and he said: "After defeating Liang Shidu, I would like to invite you to go north from Shuofang."

"Your Majesty is worried that the Western Turks will come to rescue Jieli Khan and send troops to threaten us?"

Li Yian understood his concerns.

"That's right, based on what I know about the old thief Xieli, I will definitely ask for help from the Western Turks. Although the two Turks are contradictory, they are closely related. No matter which one of them has an accident, it will only be cold."

Li Shimin analyzed and said: "I guess, the Western Turks are likely to be willing to send troops to help the old thief Jieli."

Some of the current historical details have been changed because of Li Yi'an's arrival, including the use of troops against the Turks and the attack on Liang Shidu.

Li Yi'an was not sure whether the Western Turks would send troops to support the Eastern Turks, and there seemed to be no records in the history books, but Li Shimin's worries were not unreasonable.

"The minister takes orders!"

Li Yi'an agreed: "Ruo Ruochen is lucky enough to bring back the head of the old thief Xieli to His Majesty."

Li Shimin smiled and said: "If Mister can really bring back that old thief's head, I will reward you very much. As long as it is within my ability, I will give you whatever Mister wants."

Beheading the Turkic Khan was the first feat, and it was also a great military feat. Even if Li Shimin gave Li Yian a three-provincial servant, no one would object.

"Your Majesty is what you said, and I will definitely not disappoint Your Majesty."

Li Yian laughed.

"As long as you dare to do it, I will definitely give it to you. At that time, whether it is in the army or in the court, I will let you choose any position."

It was rare for Li Shimin to be arrogant for a while, but he was serious when he said this, no joke.

Then Li Yi'an proposed to leave, and first went back to Ma Zhou's place. Just after returning to the gate, he saw Su Lie and Xue Li standing outside the gate waiting.

Ma Zhou was not at home, and there were no other servants inside, so they were not allowed to enter and had to wait outside.

"Mr. is finally back."

"Thank you sir!"

The two of them bowed their hands at the same time, and it was obvious that the imperial court's reward came down, and they came to thank them.

"Okay, everyone is so familiar, there is no need to be polite. You have made credit and should be rewarded."

Li Yi'an invited them in, and continued: "In three days, we are going to go north. Remember what I said in Chengdu, I took you to chop off Jieli's head? By then, it's not too late for you to thank me again. "

Xue Li immediately said: "If this is really possible, I am willing to serve my husband forever."

Li Yi'an reminded: "You are wrong when you say this, you are not for me, but for His Majesty, for Datang."

"Yes, it is His Majesty!"

Xue Li smiled cheerfully. He was still young, and sometimes he didn't pay much attention to the impact of his words.

Su Lie patted his heart and promised: "Sir, don't worry, as long as the old thief Xieli meets me, I guarantee that I won't run away."

Finally, after a brief discussion, they decided to set off the next morning and gather outside the barracks of the Praetorian Guards.

Since he was going to fight the next day, Li Yi'an went back to Wannian County in the afternoon and told them his plan, the atmosphere suddenly became a little dignified.

"Sir, I will go north with you tomorrow, you can't refuse."

Yu Wenyan immediately said: "Brother, are you going?"

"Of course!"

Yu Wenzhan nodded and said: "This time, sir, if he goes to the desert, he might fight with them. I have to go, otherwise, it may be difficult for him to deal with so many people."

"All right!"

Li Yi'an agreed to their request.

Without their guidance, Li Yi'an felt that he would not be able to find those people.
