Li Shimin

Chapter 556 Everyone wants to conquer Linyi!
"how can that be?"

Cheng Zhijie, Li Shimin and others all listened in a daze.

"Not only that, the small country of Linyi doesn't have many troops, and the people don't like to join the army either. If Duke Su goes, I'm afraid that only [-] elite soldiers can take down the small country of Linyi!"

Tang Jian continued to talk.

Now, even Li Shimin couldn't help being a little moved.

"There is such a kingdom!"

With such a precious land, the people are so lazy, and the kingdom is so weak, it is full of temptations for warmongers like them.

"What's more, in that piece of land, not only the small country of Linyi can produce food three times a year, but several countries around Linyi can also produce three times a year!" Tang Jian said again.

This time, the eyes of the old killers became even redder.

"Your Majesty, I, Old Cheng, want to lead troops to attack the small country of Linyi!"

Cheng Zhijie hurriedly cupped his hands and said.

"Your Majesty, I can also lead troops to attack the small country of Linyi, or all the surrounding countries!"

Li Xiaogong on the side was also a little tempted.

As for Hou Junji, Xu Shiji, Chai Shao and other generals, they all looked at Li Shimin expectantly.

"We'll discuss this later!"

Li Shimin said slowly.

Hearing this, Cheng Zhijie, Hou Junji and the others on the side couldn't help but get anxious, and wanted to continue pleading for orders.

However, Du Ruhui, Li Xiaogong and the others quickly stretched out their hands to grab these veteran killers.

His Majesty is obviously a little moved, but the matter of going to war against other countries for no reason is due to an unknown teacher, and it is not easy for His Majesty to directly agree.

Moreover, how could the emperor of the Tang Dynasty stand on the street with a group of ministers and talk about how to conquer other countries?

Disrespectful!

And after returning to Liangyi Hall.

Cheng Zhijie, Hou Junji and other generals couldn't bear it anymore, and started to challenge Li Shimin again and again.

"Your Majesty, today, the Great Tang has sufficient food and grass, the people's homes are overflowing with grain tanks, and my Great Tang has countless soldiers. There are even weapons of war like bombs.

In this way, it is the opportunity for my Tang Dynasty to send troops. "

"Your Majesty, as long as my Tang Dynasty attacks the small country of Linyi, and even the surrounding countries, I just need to supervise those lazy people every day and grow food for my Datang.

In this way, in less than two years, our Datang will be able to produce millions more grains a year.And the common people in my Tang Dynasty can also eat a full meal, and even eat three meals a day! "

"His Majesty……"

On the sofa, Li Shimin was overwhelmed by what these veteran killers said.

However, Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and other civil servants on the side hadn't spoken yet, and Li Shimin hadn't made up his mind.

Finally, after Cheng Zhijie, Hou Junji and other generals stopped talking.

Civil servants such as Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji began to object.

"Your Majesty, I think this is not a good time to send troops!"

"Exactly, Your Majesty, the New Year's Day is coming soon. This is an important festival for all the people in the Tang Dynasty. It is not appropriate to let those soldiers go on expeditions to foreign lands.

Moreover, in another three months, it will be the time of spring plowing, which is related to the livelihood of the people of our Tang Dynasty, let alone let those young and strong people go out to fight. "

"Your Majesty, the people of our Tang Dynasty have been exhausted physically and mentally from years of fighting. They should rest for a while! Just in time, while we are full of energy, we can add more people to our Tang Dynasty!"

"Your Majesty, I, Lao Cheng, feel that they are farting. To conquer Linyi, they only need [-] soldiers and more than a dozen large ships, not tens of thousands of soldiers. You only need to choose some soldiers from the Zhechong Mansion who have many brothers in the family, and there will be no delay." Farming does not delay the birth of cubs, how can there be so many things?"

"Exactly, if Your Majesty thinks five thousand generals are too much, the last general can lead three thousand elite soldiers..."

"Your Majesty, the last general only needs two thousand soldiers..."

Li Shimin: "..."

……

Lijiazhuang.

Li Shimin sat on the sofa with a helpless face. In the past two days, with the continuous supply of food outside the city, Cheng Zhijie and Hou Junji's veteran killers became more and more excited and couldn't hold back.

Li Shimin, on the other hand, was very annoyed by these old bastards.

"Your Majesty, my Tang Dynasty is very short of food right now?"

Li Xuan asked helplessly.

"My Tang Dynasty has a bumper harvest this year, and with the 150 million shi of grain transported back from Linyi, there is no shortage of grain!" Li Shimin shook his head and replied.

"Then why is Your Majesty so anxious?"

Li Xuan said with a strange expression, "On the New Year's Eve, thousands of soldiers were scattered, far away from home, away from parents and relatives. Why is His Majesty so hard-hearted? Is it for those useless food, or for those who look big but useless? Territory map for use?"

Hearing this, both Li Shimin and Li Chengqian beside him couldn't help being surprised.

"Xuan Ba, how can food be useless? Besides, that's 150 million grains!"

"Ha ha!"

Li Xuan chuckled, "Your Majesty, it may not only be 150 million, but it may even be 2 million stones, or even 3 million stones of grain!"

Immediately, Li Shimin's breathing subconsciously accelerated.

"However, the people of our Tang Dynasty are not short of food, and the court is not short of food. So anxious to transport the food back to the Tang Dynasty, back to Chang'an, and put it in those cold grain depots, waiting to be moldy and fed to the mice?"

"How can the grain in the grain depot become moldy? As for the mice? Even the grains built by those concrete houses can't be penetrated by the mice!"

At this moment, Li Shimin's mind was full of grain from one granary to another, and he didn't understand the meaning of Li Xuan's words at all.

Of course, it is also possible that he could hear it, but he still couldn't resist the temptation of the 150 shi grains, or even the 2 million grains.

If in the years of Wude, Datang could have the 150 million shi of grain, the land in Guanzhong and Guannei would not starve to death so many people!

"Your Majesty, anyway, the food in Linyi is placed there, and they can't escape. Wait for three or four months, after the New Year's Eve, and finish planting the food in the fields for the family. By that time, no matter what your majesty calls How many soldiers, those soldiers will not have any worries!
Maybe after such a long time, the people of Lin Yiguo have planted a new batch of grain again.

Moreover, the people in Linyi have already used up the goods that Tang Jian brought.

At that time, the generals sent by His Majesty can snatch more food.

Or, there is no need to rob, just bring some Tang goods, and the king of Linyi can be captured to Chang'an City.

Every year, the people in Linyi are ordered to hand in 5 million shi grains to Datang.

And my Datang, can also be replaced with some refined salt, tea, white wine, glass, etc.! "

"Or, after conquering Linyi, you can use my goods from Tang Dynasty to hire those Linyi people to attack the surrounding countries!
Or, Your Majesty can also let me, a general of the Tang Dynasty, lead a thousand Turkic generals, as the vanguard, to attack those barbarian countries in Linyi for my Tang Dynasty.The weather in the country of Linyi is so hot, maybe there will be some poisons and traps that I don’t have in the Tang Dynasty, but let the Turkic people help me find the way for the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty..."

"Also, don't forget, Your Majesty, after the new year, after the spring plowing. My Tang Dynasty still needs to send troops to the Wa Kingdom to collect taxes, as well as the living expenses of the Wa Kingdom Lord and the Wa Kingdom ministers in my Tang Dynasty!

Here, there is my [-] coins! "

Hearing this, Li Shimin couldn't help but nodded subconsciously.

"Xuanba don't worry, I will naturally not forget this matter!"

"That's good!"

Li Xuan also nodded slightly.

As for Li Chengqian, Li Chongyi and others on the side, they had already lowered their heads tightly.

They actually heard that the master is arranging tasks for His Majesty?
