Chapter 1616: 1 will be successful~! (Happy birthday to motherland!)

"Your Majesty, it is an indisputable fact that the Turkic national power is at

its peak. There is no need for Datang to choose to knock the Turkic hard rock

at this time. Only by preserving its strength and destroying the Turks with

minimal losses, can Datang be truly invincible in the world!"

In the Temple of Ganlu, Li Er frowned in contemplation. Li Zexuan stood next

to him and waited for a long time without seeing any reaction from Li Er. He

finally couldn't help but break the silence.

Li Er finally raised his head, his divergent gaze also had a focus. He stared

at Li Zexuan, and said every word: "I know the situation of Turkic national

strength better than anyone. Since I became the throne, the spies sent to the

grassland have never broken. , I admit that the current strength of the Turkic

army is indeed stronger than that of my Datang by three points, but yesterday

I have made an order to make full preparations for the six departments of the

court, and 300,000 troops will send troops from Chang'an to the grassland

after March!

I am the prince of a country. How can I speak without faith? You said that at

the end of July, the Turkic midsummer was frosty. Although this matter is

unthinkable, I believe you! But even so, what can be done? Since ancient

times, there has been no joking, do you want me to turn my back and lose my

prestige? At that time, this Datang country will surely be in chaos! "

Li Zexuan frowned and couldn't help being silent for a while. Li Er's remarks

were regarded as confidant. The problem now is not that Li Erxiang doesn't

believe him, but that the imperial decree to send troops to the Turks has been

issued, even if Li Zexuan said it. No matter how reasonable it is, it is

impossible for Li Er to change things day and night, right?

If the civil and military officials of the Manchu dynasty believed in the news

of the fall of the frost in July in the Turks, it would be better, because at

that time even if Li Er was unwilling to withdraw the imperial edict, the

civil and military officials would force him to withdraw the imperial edict,

but the problem was that the hundred officials did not. Perhaps Li Zexuan's

one-sided words can believe in such absurd things as "Summer Falling Frost"!

So Li Er at this time is really in a dilemma!

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the life of my Tang Haoerlang is the

most important thing. If we can postpone the attack on Turk for one year, our

chances of winning will not only be greater, but the casualties will be much

smaller! Compared with this, the minister thinks that you can also Jokes!"

After pondering for a long time, Li Zexuan spoke again.

"Humph! Until now, do you still think that I am the kind of Wudao faint

monarch who would rather push countless Tangs into the abyss of death for the

sake of face?"

Li Er understood the hidden meaning in Li Zexuan's words, and he took the case

and said with a look of anger:

"There is no turning back arrow in the bow. The sacred order of the national

war has been issued. The six courts are making intensive preparations for this

war. If we suddenly order the officials of the various ministries to stop

preparing for the war at this time, the hundred officials of the court will

definitely think that we are right. The Turks are timid, and there is no

impermeable wall in this world. If a hundred officials spread these news to

the people, the people of the world will be panicked. Even if the Turks will

encounter a heavy snowstorm this year, even if the strength of Jie Li will be

greatly damaged because of this. Can the Tang Dynasty organize another attack

against the Turks?

As the saying goes, it's a rush, then decline, and exhaustion! Rather than

losing the army in the future, it is better to gather the army now and attack

the grassland in one go! Although the Turks are strong, I don’t necessarily

have no chance of winning. I have resourceful civil servants, brave warriors,

and fairy lights, binoculars, gunpowder, peerless soldiers and invincible

armor. Why can’t I stand upright with the Turks? war?

Only when the Turks are the strongest, can Datang have the world's invincible

capital, so that other small countries in the surrounding area will not dare

to tease the tiger's whiskers! Your kid was still very energetic and

threatened to make Datang invincible in the world. Now that he went to the

north, why did he become fearful? Could it be that your spine and your blood

have been beaten by the Turkic national teacher? "

Li Ersheng was like a thunder, and his words were like a gust of wind and

rain. They slammed on Li Zexuan’s face. The entire Ganlu Hall echoed his angry

voice. Zhao Song, standing in the corner of the hall, couldn’t help but

secretly anxious when he saw it. Once I saw Li Er so furious in front of his

courtiers. Although Li Er was often annoyed by his courtiers in the past, Lao

Li didn't usually get angry directly in front of his courtiers. He threw the

cup after the courtier left. So Zhao Song is a little worried about Li

Zexuan's current situation.

"Nobody!"

Li Zexuan was not frightened by Li Er's thunderous anger. He looked at Li Er

directly, his eyes were red, and his voice hoarsely retorted: "The minister is

not afraid of the Turks, the blood of the minister is still hot, the heart is

still red, and the minister loves his feet. This piece of land loves the

simple and courageous people of the Tang Dynasty! If the Tang Dynasty sends

troops to the Turks, the minister is willing to go to the army immediately, be

a vanguard, charge the enemy, and serve the country!

But the minister did not want to see countless data of Tang Haoerlang die

under the iron hoof of the Turkic people, the kind of life and death parting

of life and death where the robe around him was talking and laughing with

himself at the moment, but the next moment he would sleep in the ground. Pain,

Chen doesn’t want to experience it anymore! Behind each of them represents a

warm family, a son of man, a husband, or a father. When they were buried in

the battlefield, their parents lost their sons, their wives lost their

husbands, and their children lost their fathers. , The warm family suddenly

became fragmented!

In the battle of Yongheguan, our Datang lost tens of thousands of soldiers,

which means that tens of thousands of families have become fragmented because

of this war! The bones have withered on the sand, and the family still sends

their own winter clothes. Relying on Junmo's words to seal the affairs of the

princes, one will succeed in everything. The minister didn't want to stand on

these tired bones to make a lifeless feat. Such feats were bloody, and the

minister would feel uneasy!

If war, the minister is willing to fight! But Chen does not want to see more

unnecessary sacrifices! Hope your majesty think twice! "

Speaking of the end, Li Zexuan couldn't help his eyes moist, because he

remembered Xu Tingda who came out of Bingzhou with him and other soldiers of

the Bingzhou government. How high-spirited they were when they first came out

of Bingzhou? I thought that the enemy would be able to take advantage of the

first opportunity, but who knew that the Turks had actually laid such a large

capital this time and directly dispatched 50,000 elite wolves. The defense

lines of Yanmen Pass, Yonghe Pass, and Madou Pass were all destroyed. And the

30,000 army that Li Zexuan brought from Bingzhou was finally left with only a

few thousand. Such tragic battle conditions, Li Zexuan can't help but feel

like a knife when he thinks about it!

"With the Lord's words, you will be able to complete all your achievements!"

(From "Ji Hai Sui" by the poet Cao Song in the late Tang Dynasty)

Hearing the poem popping out of Li Zexuan's mouth, Li Er couldn't help being

stunned. After a long silence, he stood up with a complex expression on his

face, walked to Li Zexuan, patted the latter on the shoulder, and said in a

deep voice:

"Boy, since ancient times, wars have killed people. If there weren’t those

soldiers who were born and died in the battlefield, how could there be my

Datang’s current world peace? When I first went on the battlefield, I was like

you, seeing the people around me. I have experienced the heart-piercing pain

when Paoze leaves you one by one! But I will not run away, let alone be

stunned, because I know that only when this country is completely peaceful can

I. Avoid more bloodshed on the battlefield!"

"But we can find a way to kill fewer people!"

Li Zexuan said seriously.

"Find a way? The way you mentioned is to make me order the six officials to

stop preparing for the expedition? Is to let the people of Datang know that

their monarch is a cowardly monarch who is afraid of the Turks? Or do you have

a way to let Datang have all Everyone believes that Turks will continue to

suffer from snow disasters this year?"

Li Er coldly snorted, and continued: "At this point, the best way is to make

adequate preparations for the expedition within these three months. The

soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are no weaker than the Turkic soldiers, and the

imperial court has sufficient treasury. With advanced technology in your

workshop, you can provide the soldiers with more adequate food, grass and

military supplies and more sophisticated weapons and armor, which can also

reduce casualties! Your kid was full of spirits and fearless at first, but now

he doesn't even have the confidence to defeat the Turks. Up?"

Li Zexuan was speechless for a while after being "learned" by Li Er, because

what Lao Li said was reasonable and he could not refute it. As far as the

current situation of Datang is concerned, the risk and price of changing the

imperial decree are too great. If it is too large, it would be better to

prepare for the expedition.

More importantly, although the Turks in this period of time were stronger, the

Tang Dynasty at this time was also stronger than in the official history. Not

to mention the abundant treasury and the strong national power, the current

industrial level of the Tang Dynasty was also better than It is more advanced

in history, and it can create sharper weapons and the strongest armor, as well

as auxiliary tools such as wireless telegraphs, fairy lights, and telescopes.

In this case, against the Turks, it may not be impossible to repeat the

history in history. A dripping victory!

Thinking of this, Li Zexuan's heart rose with a strong confidence. Since the

matter of going to the grassland cannot be changed, then find ways to increase

the odds of winning for Datang! Although three months is short, there are

still many things you can do!

"Your Majesty's lesson is that the minister was caught in the horns for a

while. In the next three months, the minister will do his best to help the

court prepare for the Turkic war!"

Li Zexuan saluted Li Ershen and said firmly.

Upon seeing this, Li Er's face finally showed a smile of relief, he nodded and

said: "Okay! This is the energetic fairy child! What can the Turkic power be,

as long as we monarchs and ministers work together to destroy the Turkic is

just around the corner!"

"Your Majesty said it!"

Li Zexuan echoed with a smile.

Having said that, he suddenly remembered that he came to court today with a

"task", so he hurriedly handed over to Li Er: "Your Majesty, the little uncle

of the minister in Longhushan, wants to meet your Majesty, now he is in the

palace. Waiting outside, look at your majesty..."

Hearing that, Li Er's eyes lit up and he was surprised: "Oh? You mean Dao Xuan

Qing has also come to Chang'an? Come on! Come on! Please come over, Dao Xuan

Qing!"

After all, Li Er couldn't wait to shout to the waiter outside the hall.

"Here~!"

An attendant bowed in response, then turned and walked away quickly.

In the Ganlu Hall, Li Er looked at Li Zexuan and asked thoughtfully: "You kid

tell me honestly, Dao Xuan Qing went to the palace to see me this time, what

happened?"

Longhushan has always been a sect of half-life and half-hidden, and has never

been keen to welcome the secular imperial power, so Xuanqing took the

initiative to enter the palace to see him this time. After experiencing the

initial excitement, Li Er immediately noticed something was wrong, so he asked

Li Zexuan asked.

In addition, this time when Li Zexuan was seriously injured at Longmen Pass

and his life was hanging by a thread, Xuan Qing, who had been practicing in

Longhu Mountain, arrived in time. This coincidence that shouldn't have

appeared, Li had long been suspicious. !

Hearing this, Li Zexuan thought for a moment and replied: "My Majesty, this

time the young uncle went down the mountain with the task confessed by the

master and uncle. I don’t want him to know that the minister is already at

Longmen Pass when he passes through Lantian County. Hurry up to Longmen

County, and it happened that Longmen Pass was besieged by the Turkic army. You

must have heard of the rest of the matter!"

"Ok……!"

Li Er nodded, and then he asked: "You just said that Dao Xuan Qing was ordered

to go down the mountain under the order of the head of Feng Lingzi. Can you

tell me what the task is?"

After the heart-to-heart conversation between the monarch and the minister,

the distance between each other was much closer, so Li Er didn't have much

hesitation in asking these words, and Li Zexuan would not go to cover up when

he answered.

"Your Majesty, it's true that the master master wants to let the disciples of

the celestial master's Taoist school enter the world to practice. Most of

those disciples are proficient in medicine. The master also heard that the

disciples set up a medical school in Yunshan and set up various places in

Datang There are many joint medical centers, so they want those disciples with

superb medical skills to enter the medical center to administer acupuncture to

the people! For the people in the Taoist school, saving the dead, healing the

wounded, and curing the world is also a kind of practice! "

"That's it!"

Li Er's eyes brightened. After a pause, he nodded and said, "Okay! Okay! Okay!

With the help of the heavenly masters and Taoists, this Datang United Medical

Center will surely become bigger and bigger, and the people of Datang will

surely get less. How blessed you are, this is a great thing!"

The Tang Dynasty respected Laozi as the ancestor and regarded Taoism as the

state religion, and adopted measures to vigorously promote Taoism and improve

the status of Taoism. Li Yuan, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, stipulated

that "Tao is big and small, old and released later." After Li Er ascended to

the throne, he immediately reiterated that "the origin of my family originated

from under the pillar", and collected the hidden and secret Taoist books of

the Jin and Wei Dynasties. Avenue. Because Taoism is conducive to the

orthodoxy and sacredness of Tang Dynasty imperial power, Li Er has a very good

impression of Taoism.

At this time, when Li Zexuan said that the Taoist priests of the Dragon and

Tiger Mountain were planning to enter the world, of course, Lao Li couldn't

help himself!

"Your Majesty, Daoist Xuan Qing has arrived outside the hall!"

At this moment ~www.mtlnovel.com~ a little ** trot in and bowed.

"Quick! Please come in, please come in!"

Li Er's expression was shocked, and his expression was excited.

"Uh, Your Majesty, but Dao Chief Xuanqing is unwilling to remove the sword

case!"

The waiter looked embarrassed.

Li Zexuan hurriedly stepped forward and explained: "Your Majesty, forgive me!

Little Shishu is obsessed with kendo, he regards the sword as life, and the

sword is always inseparable. Please forgive me! The minister is willing to

guarantee his life, Xiao Shishu has absolutely nothing to his Majesty.

Malicious!"

Li Er smiled indifferently, and said, "Heh~! It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt!

I believe you!"

After that, he looked at the servant and said, "What are you still waiting

for? Ask Xuan Qing Dao to grow in!"

"Here~!"
