Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 637
It is indeed a great achievement to collect Tuyuhun, but its significance cannot be compared with that of flattening Turks.

The pacification of the Turks was a battle of statehood, a battle of shame. After this battle, the Tang Dynasty truly washed away the shame of the Weishui Alliance.

No matter how great Li Qinzai's contribution was, he could never compare with Ping Turkic. It was a watershed that many famous generals of the Tang Dynasty desperately drew for the country's luck.

Xue Rengui also felt that he was exaggerating too much, so he smiled shyly and said, "I made a slip of the tongue, huh, but the nephew's contribution is indeed not small. The three emperors of the Tang Dynasty, you and my generals, are most worried than those in the east. Goguryeo and Tubo to the west."

"Now that Tubo has suffered such a big defeat in Tuyuhun, all of them have retreated to the plateau. Since then, the strategic zone has been severely compressed, and it is estimated that they will never be able to come down from the plateau within decades."

"For me, the generals of the Tang Dynasty, we have more and more control over the initiative. In the future, Chen Bing east of the Nujiang River will suppress Tubo on the plateau. Hehe, this is not just an increase in the territory of the Tang Dynasty. It is not an exaggeration to say that the Great Tang Tang's southwestern defense will be safe from now on."

The veterans nodded.

This is the truth, the significance of taking Tuyuhun is very important. Others only look at how much territory Datang has added, but in the eyes of these veteran killers, it is crucial to change from strategic passive to strategic active and suppress the enemy's buffer space. Important, more important than adding new layouts.

Qibi Heli slapped Li Qinzai hard on the shoulder, and laughed loudly: "Good boy, you were notorious in Chang'an back then, and I knew you were not a good thing. Son of Heaven, Shengming, I will save your bad energy to harm you." Enemy, it is true that people give full play to their talents, no, Tubo has been harmed by you so much that they dare not show their faces."

Li Qinzai tried his best to squeeze out a smile: "Grandpa Qibi praised well, don't praise again next time..."

Qibi Heli's slap made him paralyzed, and Li Qinzai really wanted to go out to find a doctor right now.

Xue Rengui stroked his beard and said in thought: "Nephew has an unpredictable ability. The three-eyed blunderbuss you made is hard to beat in the world. If my master equips thirty-five thousand three-eyed blunderbusses and then swings his troops to attack Tubo, it will be better than nothing." After destroying Tubo, the troubles in the southwest will be eliminated forever, and Tubo will also be included in our territory of the Tang Dynasty, wouldn't it be wonderful?"

The generals nodded one after another, and their expressions became more dignified. Li Ji clapped his hands and ordered someone to fetch the map. Only then did a group of old killers gather around the map to start deduction.

Li Qinzai quietly took a few steps back.

During the Chinese New Year, the front hall of the Duke's Mansion was full of killings, and the wind was blowing inside and outside the hall, and these old killers were not too unlucky.

I'm not interested in participating in the deduction of the veterans, at least I don't want to use weapons during the Chinese New Year, even hypothetical ones.

While the veterans were immersed in the deduction of expanding their territory, Li Qinzai quietly left the front hall.

As soon as he stepped down the stone steps, Li Qinzai suddenly lost the feeling of the wind blowing his back, the sun was shining on his body warmly, and the festive atmosphere of the New Year returned to his body.

I really have to wonder how many lives these old killers have carried on their bodies. Li Qinzai dares to swear that the cold feeling that appears in his body after approaching them is definitely not an illusion.

Walking out of the front yard, Xue's dog poked its head out from behind a pillar.

"Brother Jingchu, brother Jingchu!" Xue Na called out furtively.

Li Qinzai stepped forward, cupped his hands and said with a smile, "My dear brother Shen Yan, happy Chinese New Year..."

"Brother Jingchu, Happy New Year," Xue Nagang congratulated, then thought of the attributes of the guy in front of him, and hurriedly said: "My father brought a gift when he visited today, so I don't need it?"

Li Qinzai said angrily: "My dear brother Shenyan is farting. You and I are as close as brothers. Wouldn't it be strange to bring a gift?"

Xue Na was stunned for a moment, then asked cheaply: "What if my father didn't bring a gift?"

"That would be too rude, brother Yu's face must be colder than your ass."

Xue Na bowed down: "Brother Jingchu speaks directly to others, and great things will surely happen."

"It's all here, you and my brother sit in the front hall?"

Xue Na was taken aback: "Brother Jingchu, don't harm me, those veteran killers in the front hall...cough, those respected elders are all here, how dare the foolish brother bother you."

"They are all elders, what are you afraid of?"

"It's too scary. Yudi has experienced it before. One time, he sat in the same room with the elders without knowing life and death. In the end, the elders were probably bored and kicked Yudi like a ball. That feeling..."

Xue Na's cheeks twitched a few times. Obviously, the feeling was not pleasant. Not only did he have no self-esteem, but also the players were all veterans of the national dynasty, referred to as the national football team.

Li Qinzai felt sad when he thought of his experience of being held under the armpit by Liang Jianfang and ran into the front hall just now, and couldn't help but empathize with him.

Unlike Xue Na's experience, maybe Liang Jianfang has recently switched to rugby?
"Let's play somewhere else, the farther away from those elders the better." Li Qinzai said decisively.

Xue Na strongly agreed: "That's right, old killers are very murderous, and there must be disaster if they get close."

Li Qinzai smacked his lips: "The 'old killer' you mentioned includes my grandfather and your father."

Xue Na chuckled: "I'm the dog of the Xue family, of course the dog doesn't speak human language."

The two of them hooked their shoulders and were about to find a place away from Lao Shacai, but a few figures jumped out from behind the screen wall.

Gao Qi, Li Sujie, Li Xian and others looked at Li Qinzai resentfully.

Li Sujie said quietly: "Sir, have you forgotten us? We are also living people."

Li Qinzai was suddenly a little embarrassed: "You..."

Li Xian immediately answered, "We also brought presents."

"Distinguished guest, the British government welcomes you."

…………

It's right to stay away from old killers. There are a bunch of nuclear bombs gathered in the front hall of the Duke's Mansion, each of which is a deadly thing. No wonder you always feel windy when you get close to them.

Li Qinzai brought Xue Na and others to the warm pavilion in the side courtyard.

After returning to Chang'an, Li Qinzai had more or less meetings with everyone, whether it was small talk or business, the topics that should be discussed were almost exhausted.

So under Li Qinzai's suggestion and guidance, a mahjong table was set up in the Snapper...

The maids brought pastries and crisp tea, and while fumbling and playing cards awkwardly, everyone watched nervously at the battle situation on the card table.

After a few games, the dandies immediately fell in love with this way of leisure and entertainment.

Different from their grandparents and parents, this group of dandies has all kinds of poisons since childhood, and they are addicted to everything, and they are even more addicted to gambling.

While the game of mahjong made them feel novel, they also realized that it was a perfect combination of gambling and leisure.

The vast world has a lot to do!

The expressions of the dandies immediately became serious. They studied hard while playing. After all, this thing will become a skill for them to make money in the future, so they must pay attention to it.

Looking at the crowd, Li Qinzai couldn't help but secretly sighed, especially when he saw Li Sujie and Li Xian, he was even more angry.

They specialize in gambling so seriously and work so hard, studying in the school seems to kill them, and they don't lack any of the qualities of trash dim sum.

For those who celebrate the New Year, I really want to whip them out and give them a hard meal...
