Chapter 327: Will Ma Baifan Go?
"This year the Tang Dynasty has a bumper harvest and the national power is getting stronger. I intend to send troops to destroy the Eastern Turks in the north next year in order to avenge the massacre of [-] people in the city."

When Li Er gave the order, no one in the military said anything, and they all looked at each other in blank dismay. This was too sudden!

Then Yu Chigong shouted: "The last general, please be the vanguard!"

As the No. [-] loyalist of Li's second-in-command, Yu Chigong certainly couldn't let the boss stand coldly at this time, and be the first to express his opinion.

Soon everyone reacted and pleaded for orders to appear in the lobby of the military headquarters.

Li Er pressed down on the crowd, nodded and smiled and said, "Since everyone has no objection, let's discuss the matter of sending troops to fight today. Pharmacist, you go first."

Seeing that the emperor ordered generals, Li Jing thought for a moment, and said, "This year the Tang Dynasty has a good harvest, but it is already the winter season, so it is not appropriate to use swords and soldiers. In the next spring, we will have spring plowing again, and we can't do it. After two or three months of spring plowing, we will not be able to do it." The autumn harvest is coming again, so we can't mobilize troops, so the battle to destroy the country in the north can only wait until after the autumn harvest next year."

"Oh, the pharmacist is just talking, Your Majesty, give old Cheng [-] troops, and I will bring you the head of Jieli this winter!" Cheng Yaojin yelled.

Li Er laughed and scolded: "If you know how to be honest, you will be rude. How can we not know what you are capable of? Give you [-] soldiers and horses and you will be invincible? Do you think it is [-] Xuanjia troops?"

Everyone laughed, Cheng Yaojin straightened his neck and retorted: "What's the matter? It's not like we don't have no one. My family has ten thousand elite soldiers comparable to the Xuanjia Army. Each of them counts as ten, and add another ten thousand soldiers and horses." , Lao Cheng dared to enter the grassland and give them a massacre to capture the king!"

Qin Shubao scolded: "Shameless old Cheng, that's also Huaimo's ability. Do you think it's a soldier you trained yourself? You don't feel ashamed!"

Li Ji said with a smile: "I heard from Jianzhi before that the soldiers and horses of Zhongnan Academy have not yet been trained. Although Ten Thousand Sons have seen blood, they are still [-]% away from the peak, so they will not be released easily for the time being." .”

Li Er nodded and said: "That's right, this group of children are the future of Datang, I don't want to ruin my future of Datang for a moment of anger, so don't mess around!
I think that what the pharmacist said is reasonable. Although I intend to destroy the country, I also think that the time will come after the autumn harvest next year. According to Yuan Tianshi's prediction of the sky, the next year will be another bumper harvest year, so we have accumulated four years of recuperation, which is enough to lay A battle of Yuyu's destruction of the country brought back the shame of Jieli's massacre of the city in one fell swoop. "

"Your Majesty is wise!" Everyone praised in unison.

Before soldiers and horses move food and grass, for this war, Datang will build three granaries within a year, one in Youzhou in the north, one in Taiyuan in Bingzhou, one in Lingzhou in the west, and three large granaries. It means that there may be three routes for Datang to send troops in the future.

I don't know how to make a plan after a whole day's discussion. In short, after this day, the twelve guards of the Tang Dynasty have strengthened their training plan, preparing their troops for the next year's battle.

"Master, Dad said that there will be a war next year, and he wants to take us there!" Cheng Huaimo said to Bai Fan at Zhongnan Academy.

Bai Fan said with a smile: "Your father is an old fox who has nothing to gain, and there will be wars in the Tang Dynasty, so naturally you will be indispensable in the future. Who you fight with the emperor has the final say, how can others have the right to mobilize you?"

"That's right, Master will definitely participate in a great Tang Dynasty battle. At that time, we will form a team at Zhongnan Academy by ourselves. If we don't go with them, we can watch our academy sweep the world with troops and horses." Changsun Chong laughed.

"No, no, there is no war for the teacher, and fighting the fist, or the matter of your young people, is older for the teacher, and it is not suitable for me at home. It is not suitable for me. "Bai Fan reclined on the teacher's chair and said lazily.

All the disciples have black lines all over their heads, are they getting old?Have grandchildren?Who?
"Master, you don't seem to be as old as me! Besides, you don't even have a son, how can you have a grandson?" Yuchi Baolin asked, rubbing his head.

The disciples couldn't hold back any longer and burst out laughing.

"Master, which time the Tang Dynasty did not have you in a foreign war? In the past, you rushed to go, why didn't you go this time?" Li Chengdao asked puzzled.

Bai Fan waved his hand and said: "That was before, after I married my wife, I promised her that I would never go out for anything, and I would never go to war again.

Besides, all the secret methods of military training and martial arts skills have been passed on to you. If the master has something to do, the disciples will do their best, and it is enough for you to show off to Zhongnan Academy. I just want to teach at home with peace of mind. "

"But Datang is the most important military merit. If you don't go to the battlefield, how can you get military merit?"

"Military merit? What's the use of military merit? For a teacher who is as rich as an enemy, a Marquis of Lantian is enough for a lifetime. Do I have to go to the battlefield to fight back a prince? If it wasn't for the purpose of setting up an academy to teach apprentices, I wouldn't have given up on the Marquis." I don't want to, how nice it is to take my wife and enjoy the world!"

As soon as Bai Fan finished speaking, he was interrupted by a loud shout from outside the courtyard.

"Bastard, it's really an angry old man who doesn't seek to make progress like this!"

It turned out that Li Jing had nothing to do, brought his wife to visit, happened to go outside, heard Bai Fan's words that he didn't want to go to the battlefield, and couldn't help shouting and cursing outside.

Seeing the master being scolded, all the disciples covered their mouths, hurriedly bowed to Li Jing and his wife and retreated, and then heard a burst of laughter outside, Bai Fanxin said, now the image of the strict master will no longer exist.

"You two are chatting here, I'm going to see Ping'er!" Hong Funu left without saying a word, and she was uncharacteristically not here to defend her nephew.

"Uncle, you and your aunt don't say hello when they come, so my nephew can go and greet you two!"

"Stop being sloppy, tell me, why don't you want to join the war?" Li Jing said seriously.

"Here, my nephew is a scholar, he doesn't like to fight and kill!"

"Bullshit, dare you tell the truth, the old man asked your aunt to reason with you?"

"Hey! To be honest, when we got married, my nephew promised Ping'er that he would never go to the battlefield again, so..." Bai Fan sighed.

"How can a man be restrained by a woman when he gets fame right away? He's worthless!" Li Jing scolded.

Seeing that Li Jing blamed his wife, Bai Fan quickly explained: "No uncle, my nephew used to fight and go to danger to sacrifice his life for the country. That's because my Tang Dynasty was at a disadvantage surrounded by wolves. It's the right time to expand the territory, whether there are children or not, will win.

Moreover, the military training at Zhongnan Academy has been completed, and the first batch of students have graduated and entered the battlefield. If I go to the battlefield, I can be a medical soldier. What's the use of going there?

My nephew loves to be free and unfettered the most in my life. Even if Ping'er doesn't ask for it, I don't want too much fame and fame. "

Li Jing sighed: "You boy, you don't know how to make progress!

You are famous in the Tang Dynasty, you don’t want fame, that’s understandable, but you are also a man who has a family and a career, and you will have children in the future, and you will spread branches and leaves for the Bai family. If you don’t leave a military title, how will your descendants enjoy it in the future? Yu Yin?

You like to be free and unrestrained, but what about your children and grandchildren?Is it possible to become a prodigal son? "

Bai Fan laughed and said: "Uncle is too worried. My nephew has a different opinion on this matter. My child will not be successful in the future by relying on the title I left behind. I will give him the means of earning a living and what kind of life he can live like." , relying entirely on their own abilities, what I can give them is not inexhaustible wealth, but to teach them how to use their hands to create the future.

There is a saying among sages and sages that a gentleman will be cut off for five generations, moral heirs will last for more than ten generations, farming and reading heirs come next, poetry and books heirs come next, and wealth and honor are heirs for no more than three generations.

So I never thought about the matter of growing the Bai family and leaving a shadow for the younger generations. "

After Li Jing listened quietly, he pointed at Bai Fan and was speechless. Although this statement was somewhat irresponsible, it had to be said that it was a thorough enough opinion.

"Let's not talk about that, I don't know if uncle and aunt are here for fun or something? My nephew hasn't visited for a long time, but we are not filial."
