Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

Chapter 942

Chapter 64 From three generations onwards, only today is the leader of a great country
For this war, Chen Ying almost took out all his wealth.

The six Zhechong Prefectures of Lingzhou Dingyuan Army have a total of [-] regiments, and drawing out [-] regiments of combat troops is just a trivial matter.Tiger Yicong has three scouts of the same size, responsible for intelligence and reconnaissance work.

In addition, the two auxiliary troops of Zhechong Prefecture sent by Shuozhou were deployed behind the army to ensure the full power operation of the logistics system.

In order to cope with the impending battle of the trapped beasts among the Eastern Turks, the newly formed Lingwu Army Modao Army was fully mobilized.It can be said that this Modao army is composed of young and strong Li Daozhen placed in Lingwu [-]th Town. The number is not large, it is worth more than [-] people.

For the success of this troop dispatch, as well as large-scale seizures.Chen Ying contacted Datang Royal Company and formed a North Road logistics and transshipment company. A large number of livestock, vehicles and manpower were invested in the rear of this war. Large-scale long-distance transportation of loot.

This is a bold attempt by Chen Ying.

It can be predicted that this battle must be a large-scale pursuit battle.As long as it is a pursuit battle, there will definitely be a lot of captures.Geckos cut off their tails to survive, and the East Turks would adopt this method, which slowed down the pursuit speed of the Tang army.In this case, the soldiers of the Dingyuan Army will easily become a transport team.

In order to avoid this from happening, Chen Ying asked merchants to accompany the army.The seized materials are directly delivered to the caravan, directly realized, or converted into supplies consumed by the army.

Along the way, Chen Ying always stood in front of the car window, admiring the mountain scenery in a relaxed and happy manner, from time to time humming some strange melody lyrics that no one could understand. The mood is not generally good, it is great, not small!

Unfortunately, no one can understand Chen Ying.

Happiness that is not understood by others is a kind of sorrow.

Chen Ying led the troops to pick up the leak, Li Jing spent time and effort, desperately fighting, and defeated Xieli, but Chen Ying, at the most critical moment, won the biggest victory in this all-powerful battle.

It's refreshing to think about it.

……

In the Furong Garden of Chang'an City, hundreds of soldiers, led by He Yue'er and Ma Sanbao, quietly stood outside the bedroom waiting for orders.

In the dormitory, Li Xiuning was wearing a bright armor lined with a plain white battle robe. She was neat and energetic. Although her figure was slightly thin, she couldn't conceal the surging heroic spirit in her long body.

Li Yuan fastened the belt under Li Xiuning's chin with his own hands, patted her breastplate lightly, and said with a smile: "The army is different from the palace, and no one else speaks small words. Please restrain your own temperament and listen more." Don't use the whip to beat people easily, treat the soldiers well, they are serving you to death after all!"

From the corner of Li Xiuning's eyes, she caught sight of Pei Ji who looked like a rotten bone. Pei Ji knelt on the ground, still crying.

Looking at Pei Ji's appearance, Li Xiuning sighed inwardly: "Poor people must have something to hate!"

Li Xiuning said with a smile: "Father, don't worry! It's not Sanniang's first time leading the army, and she can handle the thoughts of those Qiu Ba in the army."

At this moment, Zhongchang Shi shouted loudly: "Your Majesty is here!"

Li Yuan turned around and watched Li Jiancheng enter the hall.

Li Jiancheng walked up to Pei Ji, with a gentle expression, he helped Pei Ji up and said, "Uncle, it's cold, kneeling on the ground is easy to hurt your body, you'd better get up and talk."

Li Yuan watched in amazement, and Li Jiancheng helped Pei Ji to sit down.

Pei Ji looked blankly at Li Jiancheng, Li Yuan, and Li Xiuning

Li Jiancheng handed Pei Ji a cup of hot tea.

Li Xiuning said: "Da Lang, the troops are coming soon, if Ruoxi I won't go to see her!"

Li Jiancheng said: "Don't worry Sanniang, Guanyin is a generous person, and he will definitely not treat Ruoxi badly!"

Li Xiuning really didn't want to go through this muddy water, so she left the Furong Garden under the pretext of sending troops.

Li Jiancheng watched Li Xiuning go away, watching Li Xiuning disappear at the door.Then he turned to look at Pei Ji and said, "Uncle, it's not that I'm unkind, do you know what Lawyer Pei and the Pei family's nephews have done?"

Li Yuan knew why and asked, "What did they do?"

Li Jiancheng straightened his waist, looked aggressively at Pei Ji and said: "They are spreading rumors everywhere in Wasi, claiming that this king's northern expedition will be defeated and returned, and they are slandering me, resorting to war, and killing people...

Li Yuanhuo's face darkened.

Li Jiancheng said angrily: "The rumors are spreading everywhere, which has already made Chang'an's people uneasy. If I ignore it and cause turmoil in the government and the public, will uncle know the consequences?"

Pei Ji's hand holding the cup trembled.

Li Jiancheng said: "Our army has not yet started fighting, and the rear of our house is already in chaos. How is this different from being an enemy? If uncle is free, please be kind and persuade your nephew at home. Don't talk about those relatives when the enemy is in front of you. Those who hurt the enemy will be quick...irresponsible words."

Pei Ji was speechless for a moment, looking back and forth between Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng in panic.

Li Yuan snorted coldly.

Li Jiancheng still respectfully said: "In addition, Uncle Mingjian, the fact that the Pei family's nephews are able to do what they have done today is probably not unrelated to what Uncle usually does. Uncle should not have close contacts with monster monks, let alone, in Li Xiaochang When plotting a rebellion, don’t do anything when you know what you know, just watch from the sidelines.”

Pei Ji's face turned pale immediately, he knelt tremblingly, kowtowed repeatedly, and cried bitterly: "I'm guilty! I'm guilty!

Li Yuan said with an unbelievable look on his face: "Da Lang, why don't I know these things?"

Li Jiancheng smiled wryly and said, "Father, I didn't know about these things at first. When Xiaochang died, I left a letter to my son, and I just found out about it. This matter has not been announced to the public until now. I just want to save some face for Uncle Pei."

Li Yuan closed his eyes in pain, and opened them a moment later. He walked up to Pei Ji, pointed at Pei Ji, and said, "Pei San, Pei San, aren't you...you're so confused?"

Li Jiancheng said: "Father, don't be angry. Although my uncle knew about it, he didn't participate in the conspiracy after all. Besides, the culprit has already been executed, and outsiders don't know about it."

Li Yuan looked at Li Shimin with a look of relief.

Li Yuan turned around and pointed at Pei Ji, "Pei San, Da Lang spared you a fool, what do you say?"

Trembling, Pei Ji kowtowed again and said, "This old man will go to the table now, resign from his position as commander, return to his hometown, and contemplate behind closed doors."

Pei Ji staggered out of the hall.

Li Yuan watched Pei Ji go away, turned to look at Li Jiancheng and said, "Da Lang, thank you."

Li Jiancheng sat down suddenly, and began to cry with aggrieved face.

Li Yuan was baffled by Li Jiancheng's sudden actions.

Li Yuan was puzzled and said, "Da Lang, what's wrong with you?"

Li Jiancheng wiped his nose and tears with his sleeve and said, "Father, this emperor was not made by humans at all..."

Li Yuan was speechless.

Li Jiancheng said even more sadly: "Everyone is in charge of what you do, and if you make a wrong step, you will not succeed. The civil and military courts are either cold or fierce; the death of a person in a remote state and county is said to be the responsibility of the emperor; Just playing ball, riding horses, there will always be people who will persuade you... Now, even leading soldiers to fight is not allowed. If I knew this, the devil would be willing to be this bird emperor..."

Li Jiancheng looked at Li Yuan angrily and said, "Father, I really don't know how you survived that year?"

Li Yuan looked at Li Jiancheng in amazement. In front of him, Li Jiancheng, who had no image at all, burst out laughing after a while.

After a long time, Li Yuan laughed enough before saying: "Da Lang, do you still remember the white horse at home when you were a child?"

Li Jiancheng nodded and said, "Dad did you mean "Treading Snow"?"

Li Yuan nodded and said, "It's "Treading Snow"."

Li Jiancheng said: "Why don't I remember, when Dad gave this horse to Yang Guang, I was sad for a long time."

Li Yuan said: "Oh! On the first night when you sent "Taxue" away, you lived in the stable, ate and slept with "Taxue", and when you parted, you cried all day in your room."

Li Jiancheng curled his lips and said, "How did I hear that Dad also secretly shed tears?"

Li Yuan put on a straight face and said displeasedly: "Why is Dad crying? You're talking nonsense!"

Li Jiancheng said: "Mother said it. Dad got up at night, went to the stable and sat there overnight. In the morning, mother came to see you and found that your face was full of tears."

Li Yuan hurriedly said: "That's the morning dew. In spring and autumn, there will be dew in the morning."

Li Jiancheng said: "Father is lying!"

Li Yuan was about to continue his defense, when he and Li Jiancheng suddenly laughed together.

A servant walked cautiously to Li Shimin's side and said, "Your Majesty, it's getting late, is your majesty going to Xiande Hall to review the memorial?"

Li Jiancheng waved his hands again and again and said: "No, no, no... I still want to talk with Dad. Now it's time for dinner. Come on, let's serve wine. I want to have a few drinks with Dad!"

……

In the main hall of the Provincial Political Affairs Hall under the door, a scholar, Lingshi, put a memorial on Fang Xuanling's case table, but he didn't want to, knocked down the pen holder, and the pen holder fell into the inkstone full of ink, and put Fang Xuanling's body, and the case. The memorial that was being written on the table was blacked out a lot.

Shu Lingshi was so frightened that he bowed his head and dared not move.

Fang Xuanling used a brush to poke the trouble-making book Ling Shi and said: "Clean it up, and help me get a new piece of hemp paper."

Shuling Shi was stunned for a long time.

Wei Zheng came over and said, "Why, do you still want to be scolded before leaving?"

Shu Lingshi hurriedly gave Fang Xuanling a reprimand, and ran away.

Wei Zheng watched Ling Shi run out of the door after seeing off the book, and couldn't help but smiled and said, "Xuanling has changed a lot recently!"

Fang Xuanling looked up at Wei Zheng and said, "Why did Xuancheng say that? I'm still not the same, what can change?"

Wei Zheng waved his hands and shook his head, "Recently, Xuanling has less hostility in her chest."

Fang Xuanling laughed dumbly and said: "If this is the case, Xuan Cheng is not wrong."

Wei Zheng asked curiously: "Xuanling is here recently, what is the happy event?"

Fang Xuanling nodded and said, "I lost a bet."

Wei Zheng was a little stunned and said, "Lost the bet? Is it a happy event?"

Fang Xuanling sighed and said, "I lost to His Majesty.

Fang Xuanling looked straight at Wei Zheng calmly and said, "After the Xuanwu Gate, I had a bet with the current emperor. Your Majesty once made a bet with Xuanling, and your Majesty swore to let me see if he can become a famous man through the ages." You Daoming Lord, and swore that he would not kill me because of my remonstrance."

Wei Zheng smiled knowingly, looked at Fang Xuanling and said, "In this way, Xuanling admits defeat, is he acknowledging that he is today, the Holy Master of a generation?"

Fang Xuanling was startled, and quickly grabbed Wei Zheng's sleeve, making a silent movement.Fang Xuanling said in a low voice: "Xuan Cheng, don't let His Majesty hear these words!"

Wei Zheng raised his eyebrows, and looked at Fang Xuanling playfully.

Fang Xuanling said with a helpless wry smile: "The eldest son of the Li family has a flamboyant personality. If he has some meritorious service, if he receives a little praise, he will turn his tail up and become confused. He is more than thirty years old, but his youthful heart remains unchanged. .”

Fang Xuanling shook his head amusedly, and said, "As long as the people around me give more advice and support, this Li family man will definitely be able to create the most prosperous and peaceful world in the past three generations."

Wei Zheng's expression froze, and he looked at Fang Xuanling in disbelief.

Fang Xuanling nodded firmly.

Wei Zheng still had an expression of disbelief, and shook his head again and again: "Xuanling is really... beyond my expectation, in my impression, Xuanling should be a..."

Fang Xuanling laughed and said, "What should it be?"

Wei Zheng frowned, trying to choose the right words, it's better to have nothing good to say.

Wei Zhengdao: "Xuanling should be a...a miser who cares about pennies and pennies. He can't get out of his mouth, half a sentence is self-sufficient, and suddenly such a big change, I really..."

Fang Xuanling laughed even louder, and said flatly: "Xuancheng, His Majesty even gave up the opportunity to conquest in person, which shows that in his heart, the ideal of world order is already more important than leading troops to fight."

Wei Zheng nodded in agreement and said: "No one is perfect, and so is the emperor, but the most important thing for a person is to be able to know and discipline himself. Your Majesty is a person who is good at self-discipline."

Fang Xuanling said: "That's right! Although the Li family's master cannot be regarded as the most shrewd and capable emperor in the past three generations, he is the most self-aware and self-disciplined king among the masters that Fang has encountered."

Wei Zheng clapped his hands in agreement, his expression agitated.

Fang Xuanling said with a faint smile: "Such a quality actually exists in His Royal Highness, who has always been known for his impulsiveness and recklessness. This is indeed beyond my expectation."

The smile on Fang Xuanling's face gradually deepened.

Fang Xuanling walked to the entrance of Zhengshitang, turned around suddenly and said, "It's getting late, Xuancheng, may I buy you a drink?"

Wei Zheng was embarrassed, and looked at the document memorial on the table.

Fang Xuanling took three steps at a time and made two steps, rushed forward and pulled Wei Zheng back: "You will never be able to deal with these official affairs, rest tonight, I will help you with it tomorrow!"

Wei Zheng looked at Fang Xuanling with a serious expression on his face, couldn't help laughing and said, "OK, OK, Xuanling, you don't have to use such force, it's up to you, drink tonight!"

Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling left the Political Affairs Hall together, and then came to Fang Xuanling's mansion hand in hand.

Mrs. Fang's Mrs. Lu arranged a table of side dishes for the two of them. There were no delicacies from mountains and seas, but there were vinegar celery and salted soybeans that Wei Zheng liked most.

Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng raised their glasses and said, "Xuan Cheng, I have always had a question, can I ask you?

Wei Zheng smiled and said, "Fang Gong, why be polite, just ask."

Fang Xuanling put down the wine cup, tilted his head and thought for a while, "Xuan Cheng has experienced three masters, in your opinion, who is stronger among these three?"

Wei Zheng picked up the wine cup and drank heavily, then wiped his mouth, and thought deeply: "Pu Shangong Li Mi, a generation of heroes, has perseverance, courage, responsibility and determination, but unfortunately he is too suspicious. But use, and eventually fail...

Fang Xuanling held the wine glass thoughtfully.

Wei Zhengdao: "Xia Wang Dou Jiande, benevolent and just, courteous corporal, and also from Penghao, knows the sufferings of the people, but unfortunately he is indecisive and mentally weak, so he was defeated in Hulao Pass..."

Wei Zheng paused, looked out of the window, his eyes blurred: "Three generations on, only Your Majesty can be called the hero of a great country!"

The concept of great power.Both ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, have multiple political meanings.

Western Zhou feudal.A hundred miles is a country, and ten miles is a home. During the period of becoming a king, hundreds of large and small countries were entrusted at one go. Among the princes, after hundreds of years of fighting and annexing each other, the so-called big countries have also formed their unwritten standards.

Thousands of miles of land, thousands of vehicles, is a big country.

The so-called chariots and chariots mean that the country's standing troops have reached more than [-] people. The Zheng, Song, and Qi countries in the early Spring and Autumn Period were such standard big countries.

Later, through political innovation and economic development, Qi, Jin, Qin and Chu finally formed a super power that dominated one side in the form of "hegemony".

The historical trend is rolling forward, and the concept of the so-called big country is also constantly evolving. The simple ranking method based on geographical area and military strength is constantly being impacted. The concept of big country has begun to carry more and more political and diplomatic connotations.

The so-called big country can make the princes of the world serve it with ministers and servants. In a big country in its heyday, a mere envoy can destroy a country by a mere envoy. Xuan Ce, king of Banchen Tang, is a typical representative of the power of a big country.

The so-called "Whoever commits a strong man will be punished even if he is far away" is a slogan chanted with a naked and undisguised chauvinism during the heyday of the great powers in the Central Plains.

Once upon a time, when Tian Khan was angry, dust and sand rose up in the desert of the Western Regions, and the turbid waves of the East China Sea reached the sky. Even if the lazy and powerful man in the Tai Chi Palace farted, he could stir up a mighty wind and thunder on the desert grassland.

Wei Zheng suddenly remembered the grand blueprint that Chen Ying had drawn to him.

PS: Last night on New Year's Eve, I drank a few more drinks with my family.The update was delayed, and I got up to code at twelve o'clock. Unfortunately, the sound of firecrackers continued, and many ideas were interrupted... I wish you all a happy new year!
