I, the military god of the Tang Dynasty, have risen since I destroyed the Turks

Chapter 547: Shihana Kingdom Raises an Army to Punish the Crime
Looking at the back of my father.

Li Zheng said angrily: "Father, you are so heartless. Your child took you out for a walk, and you're leaving now?"

Li Shimin turned his head and smiled strangely: "You kid, do you still want me to review memorials for you? You have a nice idea. I tell you, you should handle the government affairs honestly for me. Li Xian is less than fifteen years old, and you have no time to attack him. I have already told Xiaoxian that if he is forced by you to learn to review memorials, he should come to me directly."

Done.

Li Shimin turned around and left, with a smug look on his face.

"This old guy."

"It really is."

Li Zheng also shook his head helplessly.

A wave of his hand.

The pterosaur took off and left to find food on its own.

Subsequently.

Li Zheng will walk towards the Council Hall.

Just arrived in front of the hall.

Wang De immediately came forward and said, "Your Majesty, the Minister of War has been waiting in the Council Hall for a long time."

"What's the matter?" Li Zheng asked.

"It seems to be an urgent report from Northern Xinjiang." Wang De said.

"Yeah." Li Zheng nodded and walked quickly into the council hall.

See Li Zheng coming.

Zheng Xuan immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

"No gift."

"What's the matter?" Li Zheng raised his hand and asked.

"Let's start playing, Your Majesty."

"His Royal Highness the King of Wu has delivered an urgent message."

"It concerns the affairs of the northern border." Zheng Xuan immediately handed in a report.

Li Zheng took it and looked at it, with a smile on his face: "Yes, almost all of the former Turkic territory has been conquered by our Tang Dynasty. The former Turkic is completely finished."

Zheng Xuan immediately said, "Your Majesty, this is indeed something to be happy about, but His Royal Highness the King of Wu crossed the border to kill the defeated foreign army and entered the territory of the Shihan Kingdom in the northern border. I am afraid that this will be used by the Shihan Kingdom to mobilize troops against our Tang Dynasty. We must be on guard against this."

Hearing the name of Shihana Kingdom.

Li Zheng started thinking immediately.

He naturally knew the origin of the Shihan Kingdom.

It is located in the Eurasian continent and is the predecessor of the former Tsarist Russia.

But for the Tang Dynasty, it is now called the Shihanna Kingdom.

"The remnants of the Turks are the enemies of our Tang Dynasty. No matter where they flee, they must be killed."

"If the Shihan Kingdom dares to shelter these remnants, it will be an enemy of the Tang Dynasty."

"I am not afraid of them."

"The King of Wu led his troops to kill all the remaining evildoers. He did the right thing." Li Zheng said in a deep voice.

In a word.

He simply held back Zheng Xuan's next words.

Originally, Zheng Xuan was going to impeach Li Ke, after all, he had led troops across the border without authorization. But after Li Zheng's words, he simply convicted Li Ke of leading troops across the border, and he was innocent.

"emperor."

"What should we do if Shi Khan's country mobilizes troops?" Zheng Xuan said worriedly.

"Mobilize the troops if you want. I couldn't ask for more."

"Since the King of Wu led his troops across the border, it proves that he has already deployed defenses in the northern border. He would never be so stupid as to cross the border without defense."

"So, there's no need to worry." Li Zheng had no worries at all.

In Beijiang Prefecture.

Li Zheng asked his two most trusted brothers to stay there.

One is in charge of military affairs, the other is in charge of government.

There are still more than 200,000 troops in the northern border.

They discussed it among themselves and Li Zheng didn't have to worry at all.

Hear the words.

Zheng Xuan nodded in relief, then smiled and said, "The Emperor still has great trust in the King of Wu and the King of Jing."

"I trust those I employ, and I will not employ those I doubt." "Whether it is my two brothers or you, as long as they are in this position, there is no need to worry that I will not give up my power."

"This time, the King of Wu pursued the defeated Turkic army. This is also a kind of responsibility to the Tang Dynasty. Not only will I not blame him, but I will also reward him." Li Zheng smiled slightly.

"I understand." Zheng Xuan said immediately, and he also had an epiphany in his heart.

in the past.

In the courts of all dynasties, many ministers were afraid of taking responsibility, such as the responsibility of killing someone or the responsibility of making enemies with other countries.

But Li Ke was confident. He believed that his brother would trust him, and he clearly understood his brother's ambitions for the world.

and so.

He crossed the border and killed without any hesitation.

He doesn't care about the Shihan Kingdom at all.

He just needs to complete the task assigned to him by his brother.

At this time.

A voice came from outside the palace, "Your subject, Chen Shubao, requests an audience."

"Look, something's happening."

Hearing that it was Chen Shubao, Li Zheng smiled. He seemed to have guessed what would happen next.

"Xuan."

Li Zheng said immediately.

Wang De immediately shouted, "The emperor has ordered Chen Shubao to appear before him."

Chen Shubao walked quickly into the hall with an anxious look on his face.

"No need to kneel."

"Just tell me what it is. Is it the Shihan Kingdom in the northern border?" Li Zheng waved his hand to stop Chen Shubao from saluting.

Upon hearing this, Chen Shubao immediately replied, "Your Majesty is wise. This is exactly about the Shihan Kingdom. The Shihan Kingdom has sent people to contact us. The delegation has entered the territory of our Great Tang. They will come to Chang'an in ten days at most. I dare to ask whether we should receive the Shihan Kingdom delegation."

Listen to this.

Li Zheng understood immediately.

The Shihan Kingdom is going to send an army to hold the culprit accountable.

"See you, why not see you?"

"I'm just waiting for them to come." Li Zheng laughed and didn't take Shihan's country seriously at all.

"The country of Shihan has just bordered our Tang Dynasty. They are sending an envoy here now. Are they trying to establish diplomatic relations with our Tang Dynasty?" Chen Shubao said.

He naturally didn't know what was happening on the border.

and.

The Tang Dynasty's Ministry of Rites also had a unique way of dealing with envoys coming to the emperor's court. They would first let them in, then send soldiers to escort them and also monitor them.

I will report to the emperor along the way and see if he wants to meet him.

If not, they will be deported directly.

This is also the reason why the Shihanna Kingdom was able to enter the territory of the Tang Dynasty.

"I guess Lord Chen doesn't know the situation at the border yet." Zheng Xuan smiled.

"Did something happen on the border?" Chen Shubao asked puzzledly.

"good."

“And it’s not a small matter.”

"Your Highness the King of Wu led his troops to the border of Shihana and killed the defeated Turkic army."

"Look, Shi Khan's country has come to call for punishment." Zheng Xuan smiled.

Hear the words.

Chen Shubao's face suddenly changed and he became worried: "Your Majesty, this matter has a big impact. The Shihan Kingdom will definitely send troops to punish us. If we can't reach an agreement, we might even go to war."

Under his gaze.

unexpectedly.

Li Zheng remained calm and didn't take it seriously at all.

"I would love nothing more than to see us go to war." Li Zheng sneered.

"Isn't my Tang Dynasty streamlining its troops now? If this matter is not completed, will it affect my Tang Dynasty's warfare?" Chen Shubao was stunned. He did not expect Li Zheng to be so decisive.

"The streamlining of the army is now taking place in the southern border, and the fighting in the northern border has not yet begun."

"If the country of Shihan wants to mobilize troops, I will naturally be more than happy to help." Li Zheng smiled.
