The latest website: "Your Majesty, it is an indisputable fact that the Turkic
national power is at its peak. Datang does not need to choose to knock the
Turkic hard rock at this time. Only by preserving its strength and destroying
the Turks with minimal losses, Datang will be truly invincible in the world.
what!"
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 scattered eyes were in focus. He stared at
Li Zexuan and said every word: "I know the situation of the 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 be sent 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 will be 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, there will be chaos in this Datang country! "
Li Zexuan frowned, and couldn't help being silent for a while. Li Er's remarks
were put on his mind. 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 the news of
the fall of the frost in July in the Turks, it would be easier to deal with
it, because even if Li Er was unwilling to withdraw the imperial edict at that
time, the civil and military officials would force him to withdraw the
imperial edict, but the problem was that the hundred officials did not
withdraw the imperial edict. Maybe 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 great Tang Haojilang is
the most important thing. If we can postpone the attack on the Turks for one
year, our chances of winning will not only be greater, but the casualties will
be much smaller! In contrast, the minister thinks that the monarch can also
have A joke!"
After thinking 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 an angry look:
"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 in 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 Datang of China organize another
attack against the Turks?
As the saying goes, it's a rush, and then it's fading, and then it's
exhausted! 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, fairy lights, binoculars, gunpowder, peerless
soldiers, and invincible armor. Why can’t I stand upright with the Turks? war?
Only by defeating the Turks when it is the strongest, Datang will 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 bloodliness 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, and they slammed on Li Zexuan's face. The entire Ganlu Hall echoed his
angry voice. Standing in the corner of the hall, Zhao Song 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 alone after the courtiers left. So Zhao Song was a little worried about Li
Zexuan's current situation.
"No minister!"
Li Zexuan was not intimidated by Li Er's thunderous anger. He looked at Li Er
directly, his eyes were red, and his voice was hoarse. He 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 Datang! If Datang sends troops
to the Turks now, the ministers are 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 that 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, I 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 sand and grass, 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 unworldly feats. Such feats were bloody,
and the minister would feel uneasy!
If you fight, the minister is willing to fight! But Chen did 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 the 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 only a
few thousand people left. Li Zexuan couldn't help but feel like a knife when
he thought of such tragic battle conditions!
"With Lord Lord's words, you will be able to complete all your achievements!"
(From "Ji Hai Sui" by Cao Song, a poet 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 complicated 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 always 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 won’t escape, let alone slumped,
because I know that only when this country is completely peaceful can I. Avoid
more bloodshed on the battlefield!"
"But we can think of ways to kill fewer people!"
Li Zexuan said seriously.
"Find a way? The way you said 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 take possession of it? Everyone believes that Turks will
continue to suffer from snow disasters this year?"
Li Er coldly snorted and continued: "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 soldiers with more sufficient food, grass and military supplies and
more sophisticated weapons and armors, 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 the moment when he was "learned" by Li Er,
because Lao Li's words were so reasonable that he could not refute them. As
far as the current situation of the Tang Dynasty is concerned, the risks and
costs 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 that. 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 that can be done!
"Your Majesty's lesson is that the minister was caught in the horns for a
while, and 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 finally showed a relieved smile on his face. 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 Turks,
it 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 the 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. He is now in
the palace. Waiting outside, look at your majesty..."
Hearing this, 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 visit the palace 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, Lao Li had long been suspicious. !
Hearing this, Li Zexuan thought for a moment, and replied: "My Majesty, this
time the little uncle went down the mountain with the task confided by the
master master and uncle. Hurry up to Longmen County, and it happened that
Longmen Pass was besieged by the Turkic army. You must have heard of the
following things, Your Majesty!"
"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 cultivation.
Most of those disciples are proficient in medical practice. The master also
heard that the disciples have established 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 and healing the wounded, healing the world, is also a kind of
practice! "
"That's it!"
Li Er's eyes brightened, and after a pause, he nodded and said: "Good! Good!
Good! 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 definitely be able to reduce. 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 took measures to vigorously promote Taoism and improve the
status of Taoism. Li Yuan, the emperor of 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 original system of ours originated from
under the column", 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 the 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 Tiger
Mountain were planning to enter the world, of course, Lao Li couldn't help
himself!
"Your Majesty, Daoist Xuanqing 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 Master 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 my Majesty! The minister is
willing to guarantee his life, Xiao Shishu has absolutely nothing 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~!"
