Great Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 265 Chapter 277
In the next few days, Hisoka and Chen Dong got along surprisingly harmoniously.

It was supposed to be two bitter and bitter enemies, but they seemed to be united quickly because they were also oppressed by the landlord Zuo Ming.However, only God knows how much sincerity there is in it.

Because of the conclusion of the secret agreement, Rome finally ushered in a short period of stability. This not only relieved the people in the country, but also relieved all the ministers physically and mentally.

It's just that they are calm, but there is a war of the century between Persia and Dashi.

Zhuoguman, whose mentality was unprecedentedly inflated, was furious because of Dashi's collusion with Tianzhu, and finally launched a campaign aimed at destroying the country.

Zhuoguman's attitude is very firm, and he has even made preparations to deal with Rome and the Kingdom of God, stationing millions of troops on the east coast of the Mediterranean Sea and the side of the Black Sea.

Everything seemed to be safe, but Zhuoguman still misjudged the movement of Datang after all, and had left his control over the situation.

Almost at the same time, millions of troops appeared on all sides of Persia at the same time!

Needless to say, to the west is the Roman army of 30 troops, while to the north and northwest are Zuo Ming's millions of new American troops. As for the east, of course there is only Datang, and this time it is the veteran Hou Jun. set!
Needless to say, this general who was supposed to die in a rebellion has military capabilities, not to mention his strength when coupled with Datang's various strategic weapons of his heart!And most importantly, Hou Junji's logistics is really impeccable!

A general who only has to worry about fighting is terrifying, especially a famous general like Hou Junji!
You don't need to worry about food and grass, and you don't need to worry about the aftermath of the war. You only need to blindly attack and kill. Hou Junji only thinks that this battle is the most hearty one in his life!
It took almost half a month for Hou Junji to flatten the entire land east of the Ural River and the Caspian Sea.

Originally, according to his temperament, he was planning to continue westward or rush into the Khorasan area, but at this time, a letter from East Slavia blocked his progress.

This letter was naturally written by Zuo Ming, and the reason why Hou Junji was stopped from advancing westward was not because he thought Hou Junji was incapable of destroying the Persian forces in the north, but the Persian soldiers at this time were too strong and too aggressive. , Zuo Ming is really afraid that there will be unnecessary changes, just like Goguryeo back then.

Although they are now suppressing the situation with several times their strength and dozens of times their strength, there are always examples in this world where the few win the many and the weak win the strong. He doesn't want to be such an example!
Hou Junji had experienced the big defeat in Goguryeo, so after receiving this letter, he accepted Zuo Ming's opinion without thinking. However, at this time, Li Jingheng, the trusted Xikaidao military commander who accompanied him, was dissatisfied. opened his mouth.

"General Hou, His Majesty's order is to make a quick decision. I'm afraid it's inappropriate for us to stop because of a letter from King Tang!"

Li Jingheng is the son of Li Daozong. Since Zuo Ming moved to Dongkaidao, he relied on his father's strength to make his way to the top, and sat all the way to the position of Xikaidao's marching commander. The news of Zuo Ming was surprisingly angry.

Although the relationship between Li Daozong and Zuo Ming has eased over the years, Li Jingheng only thought that his father was afraid of Zuo Ming's power, so he chose to make things right, and he became even more unhappy.

"There is nothing right or wrong. Your Majesty did say that we must fight quickly, but he also said that we must fight steadily. My soldiers are not cheap. If one of them dies, I will pay ten years of alimony! This money is all from Your Majesty. You paid it there, do you think His Majesty will feel better if you spend so much money? General Li, listen to the advice of the old man! As the saying goes, those who know the current affairs are heroes, and the current king of Tang is no longer an existence that you are qualified to be your enemy. If we continue to fight against it, I'm afraid disaster will come!"

Shaking his head lightly, Hou Junji said earnestly.

After the transformation of the entire era, Hou Junji himself is full of reverence for Zuo Ming, and more importantly, when Zuo Ming returned to Chang'an some time ago, he was still looking like he was sixteen or seventeen years old. Added a sense of mystery.

Hou Junji dared not offend such a person.

"Hmph! General Hou is serious. I'm just talking about the facts! However, since General Hou has made a decision, I will obey. But when the time comes, His Majesty will blame you. Don't blame me for not speaking for the old general!"

Hou Junji had good intentions, but Li Jingheng obviously didn't appreciate it, and said after a cold snort.After speaking, he flicked his sleeves and left the big tent.

"Marshal, this Li Jingheng is really crazy. In the past few years, relying on being a member of the royal family, he is really neither big nor small, neither respect nor humble!"

"Isn't it? Who do you think you are? If King Jiang Xia didn't support him, his family would have been defeated by him long ago! I don't know what you are doing!"

Li Jingheng's attitude immediately aroused the extreme dissatisfaction of Su Dingfang and Xue Yuanchao on the side.

They all sat in their current positions after many tests, but Li Jingheng, because of his status as a cousin of the emperor, has made great progress all the way, so they couldn't help being jealous and hated.

"The two generals should be cautious. Nowadays, the territory of the Tang Dynasty is vast and boundless, and the blood of the clan is a little weak. It is inevitable that Li Jingheng can be reused. If you make more criticisms, I am afraid that His Majesty will not like it. After this battle, I will retire. Going to Peach Blossom Island for the elderly, as the saying goes, one thing more is worse than one thing less, I just need to do my own thing well."

Looking at the two mighty generals of the Tang Dynasty, Hou Junji smiled helplessly.He is over 80 years old this year. Although his body is still strong, his mentality has already become Gujing, and he will not be as bloody as Su Dingfang and Xue Yuanchao.

In fact, Su Dingfang is fine. After all, he is not young anymore, and he can be regarded as a person who has experienced many winds and rains. Xue Yuanchao, who grew up in the academy since he was a child, has never lost a single defeat since he came out of the mountain, so his heart was extremely high. Hearing this Immediately curled his lips and said, "Your Majesty is not so authoritarian! Hmph! In my opinion, he won't be arrogant for a few more days! When King Jiang Xia dies, if he still has this temper, other people such as Wei Wang, Qi Wang, Shu The king and the king of Jin will not let him have a good time! Hmph! If you are against the king of Tang, you don't even know how much you are!"

"He is a bit arrogant, but you are not much better. Look at what you said. Fortunately, here are all our own people. If someone spreads it to Li Daozong's ears, the academy will not be able to keep you!"

After hearing this, Su Dingfang suddenly became a little funny.

"Am I afraid of him? It's amazing that I went to America with Di Renjie to be an uncle! To be honest, it's really meaningless to stay in Datang as a frontier soldier. Nowadays, the life of Datang is more and more valuable. In the battle, we need to calculate the battle damage and the benefit comparison! How could it be so troublesome before? A large group of people just go up and kill them!"

Xue Yuanchao immediately laughed mockingly.

"It is a good thing that human life is valuable! And I think this comparison of gains and losses is indeed necessary. Datang is not short of money now, but the population is really too sparse! His Majesty once made a bold statement that he would let the Chinese blood All over the world, do you think he is just talking?
You may not believe it, but as early as several decades ago, I heard His Royal Highness Tang Wang raised the issue of population more than once. At that time, I thought Tang Wang's worries were a bit ridiculous.After all, at that time, my Tang Dynasty was a superpower with a population of nearly 4000 million, and I was the well-deserved overlord of the entire eastern land, but now it seems that this number is really small and pitiful!
Nowadays, a single Tokaido has gathered more than 4000 million people, and the entire city is only well-planned. It seems that it is not a problem to accommodate another 4000 million people. Under such circumstances, how many people should our Tang Dynasty have? How can the population fill such a vast expanse of land? "

Su Dingfang shook his head and said.As he said that, there was an expression on his face as if he had passed away.

"The old man also heard the king of Tang persuade the first emperor to stop killing Huaimin back then, and he also found it a bit ridiculous, especially the king of Tang's wholeheartedness in saving those bureaucrats, which made the old man very disdainful, but now it seems that the king of Tang's The eyes are obviously several decades or even hundreds of years farther than ours... In fact, Yuan Chao is not wrong in one sentence. Li Jingheng and Tang Wang are indeed not on the same level. Tang Wang has been in the same class for decades. We have been arranging this big game before, and we are just pawns in his hands. Even His Majesty is just walking along the road he has arranged. Li Jingheng dares to question King Tang at this time. The decision itself is a manifestation of not knowing the so-called.

However, it is not easy for ants to anger a lion. Although King Tang is now settled in Shendao, His Majesty and several princes are watching his family business in Datang. Li Jingheng doesn't even have half of Li Daozong's ability. Where is the opponent of His Majesty and Prince Ji?I just hope that he can have a little self-knowledge, don't hit a stone with an egg! "

Nodding his head, Hou Junji obviously agreed with Su Dingfang's words, and said slowly.

"Hehe! I'm looking forward to him making a fuss. Nowadays, the civil servants seem to have great opinions on King Tang. It's just a good time for those bastards to understand the importance of King Tang in the eyes of the royal family and His Majesty."

Hou Junji's sentence of ants to lions officially met Xue Yuanchao's wishes. Xue Yuanchao, Zuo Ming's die-hard loyalist, finally chuckled lightly, and said jokingly.

"I think your calculations are about to fail. His Highness Tang Wang moved away from Chang'an to downplay his own existence, and His Majesty obviously didn't want Tang Wang to continue to affect the general situation of the Tang Dynasty. Unless it was a last resort, it should not be because of Tang. The king's matter caused disputes again."

Regarding this matter, Hou Junji saw it much more thoroughly, and immediately shook his head and said.

Nowadays, apart from the business of restaurants, restaurants and clothing stores, the rest of the heavy industry and the military industry that have nothing to do with people's livelihood have been transferred to the royal family. It is difficult for others to know these actions, but Hou Junji is also a national mountain after all. , naturally know some.

Obviously, Zuo Ming no longer wants to interfere in the state affairs of the Tang Dynasty, and His Majesty should be clear about this matter, but everyone just pretends to understand it but doesn't say it.
