A Good Landlord in the Tang Dynasty: Emperor Yuan Cong

Chapter 182 God of War Spits Blood
The emperor's eyes were red.

"Your Majesty," Qin Qiong stood up, and the General of Zuo Wuwei stepped forward, prostrating with folded hands, "The Turks invaded and drank horses from the Wei River, this minister and other warriors have neglected their duties.

I implore your majesty, Xu Chen, to send a letter of war to Turkic Jieli, and make an appointment for a decisive battle in Weibei. I will capture Jieli back to Chang'an and present him as a prisoner! "

The general looked passionate.

Li Shimin was stunned by his words, and made an appointment to fight.

At this time, the left servant shot Xiao Yu also stepped forward and loudly opposed the emperor's impulsive thoughts, "Your Majesty's accession to the throne is not long, the country is not safe, and the people are not rich, so you should calmly caress him. Once you fight the captives, you will suffer a lot. Never."

Qin Qiong and Xiao Yu poured cold water on Li Shimin's thoughts.

However, the angles of their opposition are different. As a warrior, Qin Qiong is not afraid of war. What he opposes is the robbery alliance. Raiding is a common military method, but using the parliamentary alliance to trick the other party into kidnapping, this kind of thing Ordinary generals can still talk about it, but the emperor will make the world ridicule if he does so, and it will also make Datang lose his promise.

Xiao Yu was completely opposed to continuing the fight at this time, and didn't think he could win, and refused to take risks.

The excitement on Li Shimin's face was slowly fading away.

Fang Mou decided against the two, but did not immediately object to the advice.

"Your Majesty, I beg your Majesty to stop thinking about it." Shi Yushi Ma Zhou also stood up to object.

Li Shimin looked at him, slowly calmed down, and nodded to let him continue, "Your Majesty, the act of robbing the alliance must never be allowed. Your majesty has just ascended the throne. If you rob the alliance, this move will make your majesty and the Tang Dynasty stand out in front of the world. If you lose your faith, your faith will not be exchanged for anything.

Even if they can rob the alliance and defeat the enemy this time, they will inevitably have deep grievances. At that time, the Turks will no longer believe in Datang, and they will no longer be able to appease the prisoner. They will rearrange their arms out of fear.Even if you want to be the leader of the new Great Khan, you must use the banner of revenge to invade the south, and there will be no peace on the border of the Tang Dynasty. "

Li Shimin said: "If the [-] Turks who entered the pass are wiped out, the Turks on the grassland will no longer be able to really threaten the Tang Dynasty. The imperial court can send envoys to the northern part of the Great Wall to appease Tiele, Khitan and other tribes. To strangle people and Turkic people to attack and kill each other, our Tang Dynasty only needs a decree and a few drums and banners."

When the emperor said this, he was no longer so excited.

"Your Majesty, I think the opportunity for peace is not easy, so I should take this opportunity to cease fighting and cease fighting, and lure them with gold, silver, and silk. If they get what they want, they will be arrogant and underestimate the enemy, so they will no longer be vigilant. Then I, the Tang Dynasty, will raise our power to wait for the provocation, rest and recuperate. As Your Majesty said, if you communicate with the Western Regions and contact Tie Le and Xi Qi, you will be destroyed in one fell swoop."

"If you want to take what you want, you must give it to you. This is the truth." Ma Zhou remonstrated.

Li Shimin looked at Xiao Yu, then at Ma Zhou, then at Qin Qiong, then at Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, who was still silent, and several other prime ministers who were also silent.

He suddenly called Wu Huaiyu's name.

"Huaiyu, what do you think?"

"Your Majesty, I feel that there is no one on the right hand of His Majesty who is leading the army to fight a war. If Your Majesty said that he can fight and destroy the Turks, then I believe that I, Tang, will definitely win this battle.

However, what Ma Yushi said is also very reasonable. Now that all the armies have gathered in Guanzhong, they are already encircling Jieli with 10 horses. The initiative lies with me, and the advantage lies with me.

We can accuse Jieli of breaking the contract and breaking the oath, and occupying the righteousness.

We don't need to get them drunk and arrest Jiemeng through the meeting of the alliance, we can directly cross the river and fight, or like the last battle of your majesty in Xianyang, we will attack the Turkic soldiers and horses, which will definitely destroy the dead.

At that time, Yu Chigong will be in Jingyang, Fan Xing will be in Binzhou, Li Jing will be in Jingzhou, Chai Shao will be in Qizhou, and Xue Wanche will be in Longzhou. No matter which direction the defeated Turkic troops flee, there will be elite soldiers in front to intercept them.

The ambush invites the front, the army creeps behind, and the destruction is like turning the palm of your hand! "

Morality!

Wu Huaiyu pointed out this directly. This is what Xiao Yu and Qin Qiong didn't say clearly just now, but Huaiyu said it.

It is okay to fight a war and conduct a surprise attack, but it is against morality to lie to the Jiemeng.

Especially for Li Shimin, who had just ascended the throne, if he cheated as soon as he ascended the throne, I am afraid that no barbarian will believe that Li Shimin believes in Datang again, and the cost will be very high.

"Xuanling, Ruhui?"

Li Shimin finally directly named his right-hand man.

Both Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui were opposed to extravagance, and believed that they should form an alliance with the Turkic people according to the established plan, and then let them go.

The reason is also very simple. The Tang Dynasty has fought every year, and the foundation has been hollowed out. Even the people in Gyeonggi are hungry and poor, and they have to rest for a few years.

If the fight continues, there will never be peace.

Winter is coming soon, and if this battle continues, countless people in Guanzhong and Gyeonggi will be hungry and hungry this year, so there is no need to try to have fun for a while.

This battle was won, but Turkic Yu shot Shabolo Shituo and Yugu Shi those Turkic nobles who closed the town and opened their teeth and set up tents. No matter who fights to be the Great Khan, they will definitely have revenge on Tang.

Can't afford to toss.

"Your Majesty, give me ten years to recuperate."

Li Shimin shook his head, "Ten years is too long, I can't wait."

"Five years!" Fang Xuanling stretched out a slap, "Give me five years to wait, and fight again after five years!"

Li Shimin looked at the group of important officials in the palace, and after all he let out a long sigh, and finally dismissed that tempting idea.

Just from a military point of view, taking advantage of the opportunity of the alliance to take advantage of Jieli Tuli and other important Turkic leaders on the opposite side, and then send troops to make a surprise attack, they will surely win a big victory while the enemy has no leader. In these eight hundred miles, none of them can go out, chase, ambush, intercept, and finally destroy them.

But the Turks are not just this army.

His reputation and Datang's faith are also very important.

In the end, the emperor decided to follow the original plan and make a covenant with Xieli Huimeng tomorrow.

"Qin Qiong, Xiao Yu, Ma Zhou, and Wu Huaiyu are rewarded for their good advice!"

The emperor gave four people, and each of them gave a gold bottle.

Only those who have no bargaining chips will be desperate.But for the Tang monarchs and ministers right now, in fact, they still have a lot of chips in their hands, so there is no need to do the thing of robbing the alliance. In the long run, the gains outweigh the losses.

Just like the change of Xuanwu Gate, it was because Li Shimin had been forced to the cliff and had no other chances, so he had to take the risk at the end. However, if there was still some room, Li Shimin was unwilling to kill his brothers and imprison his father.

Walking out of the palace gate, Qin Qiong took Huaiyu along with him. He was about to return to the Bianqiao camp, and he didn't even have time to go home.

"Erlang must remember that the Weiqiao alliance is a disgrace to the Tang Dynasty. It is a great shame and humiliation, and this revenge must be avenged." As he said, Qin Qiong actually spat out a mouthful of blood.

The Great Tang Gatekeeper felt aggrieved and couldn't get enough of it.

"Father, you are hurting your body due to shortness of breath, and the future will be long."

Qin Qiong is the main combat faction, hoping to fight the Turks decisively, no matter what he does, others have fought to the city of Chang'an, so they have to fight back.

He totally disapproved of Xiao Yu, Ma Zhou, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and their fight again in five or ten years.

Fortunately, Huaiyu's attitude in the hall just now satisfied him.

"Warriors must be bloody," he patted Huaiyu on the shoulder, "Remember this, or else you can count this and that, just take off your armor and become a civil servant to play with your pen and talk."

Qin Qiong's leaving back is a little lonely and sad.

My body, which has been recuperating for more than two months, has gradually improved, but I was so angry that I vomited blood just now, I am afraid that my heart will be depressed, and my body will deteriorate again.

Huaiyu returned to Yongxingfang.

The new home, which covers an area of ​​[-] mu, has basically not been touched much. Li Yuan, the king of Lujiang, the dead ghost, has put a lot of effort into it before, and there is no need to change it at all.

Furniture, etc. are all available, and you can move in with your bags.

Zhao Yizheng directed several craftsmen to change the door plaque for Huaiyu, the sub-fu of Daling County.

Seeing him come back, Zhao Yi happily stepped forward to greet him.

Huaiyu raised his head and looked at the plaque. The words were written by Chu Suiliang, the curator of the Hongwen Museum. Write this plaque to Huaiyu.

"Erlang Qingyun is going straight up. He has just been named a county magistrate. In less than two months, he has been promoted to county magistrate again. The people in our mansion all feel that their faces are radiant."

In Yongxingfang, the county mansion, all the people came to congratulate Huaiyu.

Everyone also heard that there was going to be peace talks with the Turkic people, and that the Turkic people were about to withdraw their troops. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, with smiles on their faces.

"Runniang, give everyone a reward."

Each servant will be rewarded with ten coins and an egg at night.

Such a huge reward surprised everyone, the price of Chang'an is so expensive recently, many people are hungry and full, and the chicken is even more expensive, the owner actually rewarded people with eggs.

Wu Liu's heart aches, but it's hard to tell her son face to face.

Turn around and follow to the study, saying that he wasted money.

"Occasionally give a little reward, and today is indeed a happy day."

Huaiyu smiled, and asked Liu to keep the gold bottle bestowed by the emperor. This gold bottle was a royal reward, it was gold, and it contained a lot of silver and copper coins.

Wu Liushi smiled and said, "Let Run Niang keep it for you,"

The Huaiyu brothers still have not separated, and their parents can't separate. However, although the two brothers are not married now, they are both officials and concubines, so the Wuliu family no longer cares about the two brothers.

The two brothers only need to hand over their official salaries to their families for common use, and keep other monthly salaries and rewards in their own houses.

In this regard, Wu Liushi is still very open-minded.

"The Turks are gone, so you shouldn't be so busy anymore. Now that you've brought Hu Ji back, don't be left out, big and small, otherwise one day the two of them will really jump into the well, and it will be a real crime."

"Isn't it?"

"It's very pitiful to be lonely and helpless. If you take it home and ignore it, what will you do with it? You usually treat your two dogs and two mules more dearly to them. Your dog and two mules Mules are still famous, talk to them when you have time, but what about those two?"

Huaiyu smiled helplessly, "Mother, I understand, don't rush and take your time, I think their health is not good, too weak, let them take care of their bodies first.

Let me tell you, this body is too weak, and it is difficult to conceive a child. If you are pregnant, you will not be able to keep it. Take care of your body first. I will get a few milking sheep tomorrow, and let them and the little sister in the morning Drink a cup of goat's milk, eat two chickens, and usually eat more meat. When will they weigh a hundred catties? When will I go to their room. "

"What you say is what you say?" Liu Shi asked.

"I'm sure you'll keep your word."

"Okay, it's not difficult to raise a hundred catties. Our family feeds pigs, sheep, cows, and horses. I have experience. Just eat a few more meals. Horses need night grass to get fat. This person is the same. In the future, the second high Add a glass of milk, add two boiled chickens, add meat to the other two meals, and eat another meal at night, I don’t believe that I can’t raise a hundred catties in two months.”

Liang Gao is very thin now, about seventy catties, and it will take some time before she grows to one hundred.
