Man Tanghong

Li Shimin saw Li Yuanji nodding, thought about it for a moment and understood the connection, and then complained feebly: "How much do you hate Qiu, so you would leave Qiu Xinggong alone and use Guo Xiaoke instead."

You know, Guo Jing is a person who can help Li Shimin change the direction of a war. In terms of harm, he is obviously more harmful than Qiu Xinggong.

In this case, leaving Qiu Xinggong alone and using Guo Jing instead was obviously a sign of disgust for Qiu Xinggong to the extreme, otherwise he would not have put himself in more danger.

Li Yuanji did not respond to Li Shimin's words, but smiled calmly and said, "What do you think of Guo Jing?"

Li Shimin said speechlessly: "Since you have already made up your mind, why do you need to ask me?"

He was not in charge of the war in the north, nor was he qualified to do so. He could only give some suggestions on personnel transfer matters, but he could not make decisions, so he did not interfere at all when Li Yuanji had already decided. room.

Facing Li Shimin's answer, Li Yuanji nodded with satisfaction and said, "Then let's go to Guo Jing!"

Xue Wanche spoke again at this time, "Kechen's brothers didn't do anything wrong?"

Li Yuanji looked at Xue Wanche funny.

Li Shimin rolled his eyes at Xue Wanche for no reason and said angrily: "We are doing this to protect your brother, not to harm your brother. Why are you so anxious?"

When Xue Wanche heard this, his mind couldn't turn around and he scratched his head.

Li Yuanji knew that with his brain, it would be difficult to turn this corner in a short while, so he immediately explained to him with a smile: "Your two brothers lost their troops in Suni and killed too much, which has aroused the rebellion of all the Turkic tribes. Note that once they continue to kill like this, the Turkic tribes they encounter in the future will fight to the death.

By the time your two brothers have dealt with it, that will naturally be good.

But if you can't handle it, the whole army will be wiped out.

So we transferred your two brothers back to protect them. "

When Xue Wanche heard this, he immediately raised his neck and shouted: "There is no way my brothers will lose to the Turks!"

Li Yuanji nodded funnyly and said: "I believe in the abilities of your two brothers, but didn't Wang Li and Zhang Han think the same way when they led an army of 40 to stop Xiang Yu from going north?

But what will be their final fate?
It is the defeat of the defeated, the captured of the captured, and the surrender of the surrendered.

So anything can happen on the battlefield, and it won't just because you are good. If you have enough soldiers and horses, you will definitely win.

Xiang Yu won by relying on a last-ditch battle. How can you be sure that the Turks could not defeat your two brothers in a last-ditch battle? "

Xue Wanche was a bit naive and didn't understand the twists and turns of politics and people's hearts, but he did understand the art of war and strategy.

Hearing this, he hesitated.

After a long time, he hesitated and said: "But, my brothers just went back like this, and there will be no chance to contribute to you and the Tang Dynasty again."

Li Yuanji laughed, pointed at Xue Wanche and said: "I didn't expect you to have such small thoughts, so you can rest assured that your brothers will have the opportunity to continue to contribute to the Tang Dynasty in the future, and so will you."

After Xue Wanche heard this, he became excited, opened his eyes as big as copper bells, and said with joy: "Your Highness, what you mean is that after we take down the Turks, we will conquer other places?
Is it Tubo, Goguryeo, or Baekje? "

The king and princesses of Silla were not included in Xue Wanche's must-conquer list because they lay flat enough and knelt thoroughly enough.

In the eyes of all the generals and commanders of the Tang Dynasty, they all looked down upon people like Silla who lay low, gave them whatever they asked for, and screamed "daddy" in pain, and they didn't think they had any value in conquering them.

They like to have a straight back and a tough mouth. It is interesting to fight with neighboring countries like this.

After all, if you don't resist even if you resist, the fight is not only boring, but also has no sense of accomplishment, just like an adult bullying a child.

If the resistance is fierce, it will be interesting to fight, and you will also have a full sense of accomplishment.

Li Yuanji faced Xue Wanche's question and said with a smile: "Well, you will know about it later!"

Xue Wanche let go of his pride for a moment, and in order to satisfy his curiosity and belligerence, he actually started to make a fuss, "Just tell me!"

Li Yuanji hated it when men behaved or acted coquettishly. He immediately put on a straight face, pointed at the door, and shouted, "Get out!"

Xue Wanche was startled, immediately lowered his head and quickly exited the room without stumbling.

After Li Yuanji watched Xue Wanche's figure disappear completely, he shook his head and said speechlessly: "This idiot!"

Li Shimin nodded in agreement and said: "It's true that he is not very smart! His eldest brother and second brother will be promoted to Duke after this battle, and his third brother will soon be promoted to Duke. If he continues to fight with you, it is possible. He was promoted to Duke of the Kingdom. He didn't even think about whether the Xue family could afford it. A Duke of the Four Kingdoms."

Although the Tang Dynasty does not lack a family with multiple titles, a family with the title of Duke of the Four Kingdoms has not appeared yet.

Li Shiji turned his tail between his legs just because he was a Duke of the Two Kingdoms. Xue was about to become a Duke of the Four Kingdoms. Xue Wanche didn't realize the danger yet, which shows how stupid Xue Wanche is.

A person as powerful as Li Shiji can't afford the risk of a family of the Three Kingdoms. The Xue brothers are far inferior to Li Shiji, how can they afford the risk of a family of the Four Kingdoms?

"Since the Xue family can't bear the weight of one Four Kingdoms Duke, then just grant two less titles."

Li Yuanji smiled calmly.

He didn't think too much about this issue. After all, among the Xue brothers, he wanted to take away the young and strong ones like Xue Wanjun and Xue Wanche. Therefore, even if the Xue family was a master of the Four Kingdoms, he would not treat the big brother What threat does Tang pose.

After all, everyone is under his nose, and there are a group of fierce people working with them around him. Not to mention the princes of the four kingdoms, he can easily suppress them even if they are the princes of the four kingdoms.

So what Li Shimin was worried about was nothing at all.

When Li Shimin heard this, he smiled coldly and said, "Just spoil them. When something happens, I'll see how you end it."

Li Yuanji smiled and said: "If I can't end it, won't I still have you?"

When Li Shimin heard this, he stared angrily and said, "I'm not your servant, nor am I a tenant in your farm. Why do you want me to help you clean up your mess?"

Li Yuanji smiled without hesitation: "But you are my brother. As an elder brother, shouldn't you take care of your younger brother?"

Li Shimin became even more angry. He stood up suddenly and said, "You still have the nerve to say that I am your brother. Is there anyone in the world who treats your brother like you?"

Li Yuanji smiled without changing his expression: "There is no brother in the world who wants to kill everyone in my brother's house!"

Li Shimin was speechless for a moment, and could only sit back on the couch angrily, feeling sulky.

This is something he will never be able to refute, because he did do this, and it will become a stain on him for life. No matter how he refutes it or washes it away, it cannot be refuted or washed away.

When Li Yuanji saw that Li Shimin was silent, he immediately smiled and started writing a document instructing Zhang Liang and Guo Jing to come here.

Although the war to conquer Suni's lost troops is not over yet, under the conquests of Su Dingfang, Li Jing, Ashina Simo, the Xue brothers, and their fierce generals, Suni's lost troops are already like grasshoppers after the fall. , there are only a few days left to play, so the matter of bringing Zhang Liang and Guo Jing here must be put on the agenda.

After all, Zhang Liang was fine. He would definitely rush to Li Shiji's camp to report soon after receiving the transfer order. However, Guo Jing still had to hand over the work to the general manager, chief historian, and Sima of Jingzhou. He could not rush until the handover of work was completed. Report to Li Shiji's camp.

Therefore, transfer orders must be issued to them in advance.

After the transfer order was sent out to transfer Zhang Liang and Guo Jing to Li Shiji's camp to serve as the first line general manager and deputy general manager, Li Yuanji thought that the war against Suni's lost troops would be over soon, but he did not expect that when it was almost over, they would appear. Accident.

A Turkic chief named Zhi Shi Si Li sent people to light the grassland when Cheng Yaojin led his army to attack his Zhi Shi tribe. The fire spread across the grassland in an instant. In just two days, the fire spread. It spread for tens of miles, turning everything within a radius of dozens of miles into a sea of ​​​​fire, and it was still spreading outwards.

This fire not only saved his Zhushi troops, but also burned Cheng Yaojin and the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty led by Cheng Yaojin to ashes. It also restricted the Tang Dynasty's war against Suni's troops.

This matter was reported to Su Dingfang's commander by Cheng Yaojin, and then to Aries City by Su Dingfang.

In the main hall of the Xiangyi Racecourse in Aries City, after Li Shimin read the documents submitted by Su Dingfang, not only did he not get angry, but he kept praising and praising: "This is called Zhi Losing Thoughts. He is so decisive. He is ruthless enough, he is a talented person, and he has the style of a general. If he can be recruited to surrender, he will definitely become a powerful general in our Datang!"

Li Yuanji was sitting sideways on the couch in the main hall. When he heard Li Shimin's words, he rolled his eyes slightly. Li Shimin knew what was going on with Zhi lost his thoughts.

Zhi lost Si Li was another Tibetan general who submitted to the Tang Dynasty in history, after Ashina Simo, Ashina Sheer, and Qibi Heli. Although his name was not as famous as Ashina Simo, he still He was not weak in ability. After surrendering to the Tang Dynasty, he married the Jiujiang princess of the Tang Dynasty and was appointed as the general of the left army guard. He was in charge of the Suwei and was given the title of An Guogong. He participated in the Tang Dynasty's conquest of the Western Turks, Tuyuhun, Tubo, Xue Yantuo and others fought in many wars, and were later sent to Sizhou because of their involvement in the cuckold Wang Fang Yiai's rebellion.

In this regard, he is not as smart as Ashina Sheer and Qibi Heli.

Ashina Sheer and Qibi Heli may not have extremely high political wisdom, but after Li Shimin died and the Tang Dynasty was about to change its owner, they decisively requested that Li Shimin be buried.

In this way, although they were Turks, their image of being loyal to the Tang Dynasty and to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty suddenly stood up high.

In this case, how could Li Zhi take action against them?How could we not protect them if something happened to them?

Look at him again. After Li Shimin died, he did nothing and did not show his loyalty to the new master of Datang.

With the two examples of Ashina Sheer and Qibi Heli, how could the new master of the Tang Dynasty not doubt his loyalty and not mess with him?
