Mohist Tang

“Chancellor Mo who wants you to go through water and tread on fire, first help the official to consolidate the Silk Road, the official will never break his promise, and will definitely release you to the Ministry of War.” Linghu Defen Do not give up.

Mo Dun haha said with a smile: “Linghu-sama loved him so much. Youngster can help Linghu-sama even in the army.”

“Oh!” Linghu Defen Hearing this, can’t help but move in my heart.

“youngster looked through the history books, read all the records of the envoys of various dynasties and foreign exchanges, and found a law of send cold shivers down one’s spine.” Mo Dun seriously said.

Linghu Defen hearing this seriously said: “hope to hear the details.”

At this moment even Li Shimin can’t help but listen.

“Weak countries have no diplomacy!” Mo Dun paused.

“The reason why Su Qin Zhangyi was so powerful at the time was that he relied on a strong and powerful country. The national power in the early stage of the Western Han Dynasty was weak. At that time, the diplomacy of the Western Han Dynasty was extremely humiliating. Queen Lu married the princess with her relatives.

After the Martial Emperor of the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty prospered, Zhang Jian smashed the Western Regions, Ban Chao 36 slayed the Xiongnu by riding the battle, and calmed the Western Regions countries, all they depended on were these 36 People, but the powerful Han Dynasty behind Ban Chao. Mo Dun said passionately.

Many Important Ministers have also been nodded.

“youngster believes that war in troubled times is a period of prosperity diplomacy. Now Great Tang is as powerful as the Hanwu period. Blindly only launching wars will only make Great Tang decline sharply like Hanwu. At this moment, the importance of the Ministry of Ritess diplomacy will be far more important than the Ministry of War. Mo Dun seriously said.

Even Linghu Defen couldn’t help but be moved. He was already in a high position of old fox, but he was overwhelmed by emotions by the youngster of Mo Dun. If the Ministry of Rites could calm Western like a super class If the Regions made a contribution to neutrality, then his Ministry of Rites’ power would definitely double.

“War in troubled times, period of prosperity diplomacy!”

“One person can reach the Ten Thousand Armies!”

Li Shimin could not help but move, if he could send one The envoy can achieve the effect of dispatching a large army, how can he not let his heart move, after all, Tuyuhun has almost exhausted Great Tang’s national power in this battle.

“Even if Great Tang sends a small official, it represents my entire Great Tang. If Great Tang is strong, my envoy is strong. If we want to stabilize the Silk Road, my Great Tangs priority is not Let us send envoys to the Western Regions countries, but to show the Western Regions countries the great military force of our Great Tang. Mo Dun said passionately.

“No, my Great Tang has just fought a war, and the State Treasury is empty, how can I support another war?” Dai Zhou heard this and quickly retorted.

He was afraid that Li Shimin was instigated by the youngster Mo Dun, and another war to conquer the Western Regions. Other officials looked at Mo Dun improperly. After the youngster went west, he became extremely aggressive. .

Mo Dun waved his hand again and again: “It is not just war that shows military force, such as the military parade!”

“The military parade?”

Entire Court The ministers looked at Mo Dun in a puzzled manner, even Li Shimin was at a loss.

Mo Dun sighed, as if falling into memories: “The inspiration for the military parade was that youngster was born when he saw Your Majesty reviewing the three armed forces before the expedition. The heroic posture of Your Majesty reviewing the three armed forces has shocked the youngster. Endlessly, if it werent for Your Majesty to sit in Chang’an City, and go to Tuyuhun in person, Fu Yun would definitely surrender without a fight.”

The ministers looked at the flattering Mo Dun dumbfounded. With a look of contempt, even many civil servants cursed inwardly: “Flattery.”

Even Li Shimin blushed, but his heart was very useful. He conquered the North and the South, and calmed the world. His military talent is naturally recognized by the world. Even during the Western Expedition, even he was constantly deducing how he would arrange his troops if he went out. Unfortunately, since he took the throne, I’m afraid there are not many opportunities to lead the troops personally.

“At that time, the youngster thought, if the world saw Your Majesty’s wise martial arts, they would definitely worship Your Majesty’s feet and return to the world. So the youngster had a vision, if Your Majesty was in Chang’an City In the middle, a huge military parade was held. Your Majesty stood under the Vermilion Bird Gate to read the three armies. The soldiers of the three armies swear to Your Majesty. Tens of thousands of troops crossed Chang’an City and returned to camp. They invited the people of the world, foreign envoys to watch, and the people see My army is mighty, and I must be proud of it and have the heart to serve the country. When the Emissary of another country sees my Great Tang, I must be afraid, and there is no rebellious heart. Mo Dun said excitedly.

“Vermilion Bird Gate is going to review the three armies!” Li Shimin suddenly eyes shined, and he couldn’t help but move after a long time.

“In this way, the people all over the world will return to their hearts, and the foreign countries will be terrified. Together with the loyal and patriotic patriots cultivated by the Ministry of Rites, we are dealing with the nations. I, Great Tang, will not have to fight. It must be able to calm the world. Mo Dun explained, letting the officials of the Imperial Court understand the potential benefits of the military parade.

“Show off the military force!”

The ministers understand what Mo Dun means, especially Linghu Defen is eyes shined. The foreign Emissary saw the military force of Great Tang with his own eyes and returned to the country Later, I personally said that Great Tang is powerful, which is more credible than hearsay, and coupled with the means of Great Tang envoys, the greatest gain will be obtained.

Li Shimin’s eyes flashed and he couldn’t help but move: “Ministers, do you think this military parade is feasible?”

Hou Junji immediately came out and agreed: “The minister agrees, so As a result, Great Tang will not damage a soldier or a soldier, but can deter other countries. It is a good strategy.”

The military parade is to show off the military force, which is most beneficial to the military. He is the High Official of the Ministry of War. , Naturally strongly support.

“Marquis of Mo does have a benevolent heart. In this way, something that would have to be solved by war is enough for an envoy to complete, and it is the blessing of the people of the world.” Wei Zheng also agreed.

“Foreign races fear might not be afraid of virtues. If the foreign races let me see my great military force of Great Tang, a rider envoy will surely make the Northwest pass.”

Ministry of Rites Assistant Minister Linghu Defen is even more excited. With the support of the Imperial Court, the Emissary of the Ministry of Rites will certainly be unprofitable. This is the biggest opportunity for the rise of the Ministry of Rites, and it is even more supportive now.

Ministry of People High Official Dai Zhou is also nodded again and again. Compared with a war, the money needed for a military parade is only one hair from nine oxen, and if this move can be controlled in one fell swoop The Silk Road, as far as the Ministry of People is concerned, will surely be able to obtain greater benefits. As a result, the money spent on the military parade is not worth mentioning.

Mo Duns proposal for a military parade soon won the support of the Entire Court officials. Even Quan Wanji had to pinch his nose to admit that the military parade can make Great Tang a soldier without a fight. This is very consistent with the benevolence of Confucianism. He always dislikes Mo Dun, but he has to admit that Mo Dun, the youngster, does have several points of ability.

“There is no such thing as a military parade in all dynasties. This is the first creation of my Great Tang, and it will definitely be recorded in history.” Yan Shigu said with emotion.

“Great Tang’s first creation!” Li Shimin’s heart was immediately moved. Isn’t that an unprecedented precedent for him? For Li Shimin, this is an irresistible temptation.

“Well, then I, Great Tang, will do my part. How long will it take for the Ministry of War to prepare for this grand military parade.” Li Shimin couldn’t help but express his pride.

Hou Junji suddenly said with a straight face: “The Sixteen Guards are on standby at any time.”

“Where is the Ministry of Rites?” Li Shimin turned his head and looked towards Linghu Defen.

Linghu Defen pondered slightly: “Replying to his Majesty, now many Western Regions countries are already in Great Tang, but there are still many Western Regions envoys who have not yet arrived. If you want to inform, come one by one. I’m afraid it will take at least one month to return.”

“Then it will be limited to one month. On the first day of October, under the Great Tang Vermilion Bird Gate, I will openly review the three armies!” Li Shimin expression moved, nodded and said.

“As you bid!” Linghu Defen and Hou Junji responded in unison.

Fang Xuanling suddenly expressed and moved and said: “Your Majesty, if the leaders of the southwest and the leaders of the Qiang people in the northwest are invited in this military parade, they will surely receive miraculous results.”

Li Shimin eyes Suddenly, he was light flashed. He only thought of using the military parade to frighten foreign countries, but ignored that there are also many factors of instability within Great Tang, especially the continuous rebellion of various officials in the southwest.

Even Mo Dun had to sigh that Fang Xuanling’s political wisdom was keenly aware of the effect of the military parade on the internal stability of Great Tang.

“The order is passed down, so that the leaders of the southwest and the northwest will go to Chang’an City to participate in the military parade within a month.” Li Shimin said strongly. Li Shimin can be said to be annoying for the Southwestern officials. If any tribe leader can’t come, he doesn’t know each other. Don’t blame Li Shimin for being rude.

“Yes!” Linghu Defen seriously said.
