Man Tanghong

Chapter 629 They need food and clothing, and an unyielding backbone!
Li Yuanji would never allow this kind of thing to happen again.

This kind of blood drained and tears drained dry should not happen to Zhongyong.

Although by the eighth century A.D., he had already become a dead bone in a tomb, and could no longer determine the direction of any Tang Dynasty, but this did not prevent him from driving all the people from the Western Regions to Europe now.

Europe is the ultimate affiliation of the people of the Western Regions.

Only when they get there will they not have to worry about the Heavenly Soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, and only when they get there can they get back everything that the Tang Dynasty has imposed on them.

Many people think that the Macedonian phalanx in Europe is a mess of sharpness. When the Central Plains Dynasty was sharp, it was no opponent at all.

In fact, these guys are bragging for Europeans.

When the Europeans started to play the phalanx, the guy Sun Tzu saw the disadvantages of the phalanx, and he uttered the most reasonable words about the tricks of soldiers, changing the battlefield from a matter of fighting for bravery to a matter of competing for intelligence.

When the Europeans understood how to play the phalanx, the "36 Strategies" written by that guy, Sun Tzu, was rotten, and the books on military strategies written by various masters that were closer to the times, more effective, and easier to learn also emerged in endlessly.

So when the Turkic people were called father by Datang and forced to retreat into Europe, it became a nightmare for Europeans.

White slaves, sick man in West Asia, and sick man in Europe are all terms derived from the Turkic people.

Therefore, the military strategy of winning with wisdom is obviously higher than the war method of winning with armor and bravery.

That's why the Turks, whose minds are full of muscles and who are known for their bravery, were beaten and cried when they faced the Tang Dynasty, and when they faced Europeans, the beaten Europeans cried for their father and mother.

When the barbaric physique was matched with the military strategy of winning with wisdom, Meng Yuan came into being, and their iron hooves once again trampled on the dignity of Europeans.

That's why Taizu said that civilization is its spirit, and barbarism is its physique.

Because when wisdom and bravery coexist, you can really call the whole world Dad.

So when the famous Macedonian phalanx faced the sharp soldiers of the Central Plains Dynasty at the same time, it was true that Bai Qi was able to dig out the people of Zhao State and bury them in it.

Ying Zheng can spare the survivors of the Six Kingdoms and let them build the Great Wall.

Perhaps there will be new changes in the mileage and location of the Great Wall.

After all, when the Europeans rushed to the Central Plains with the Macedonian phalanx, Bai Qi, Wang Jian and his like probably started to send people to attack, harass, and even cut off their food and grass before they started to line up.

When the Europeans launched the Macedonian phalanx, what awaited them was a larger and more numerous army formation, or a massacre with crossbows falling from the sky and boulders flying across.

After all, after Sun Tzu and others appeared in the war of the Central Plains Dynasty, they have already broken away from the way of displaying chariots and horses and declaring immediate war.

Consuming the enemy before the battle, counting the enemy, guiding the enemy, doing everything in the battle, and dragging and destroying them after the battle is far from being able to be dealt with by a phalanx.

No matter how strong you blow the Macedonian phalanx, there is no chance for you to deploy it, and there is no reasonable terrain for you to deploy the phalanx. How can you win?

"Your Highness...Your Highness?"

Just when Li Yuanji was running the train with his mind full, Li Jing had already washed, changed his clothes and appeared in front of Zhaode Hall.

Li Jing arrived in Chang'an City first, and was also arranged to wash up first.

Li Jing was flattered by this.

Because he has been attached to Datang for so long, this is the first time he has enjoyed this kind of treatment.

After he helped Li Xiaogong pacify Jiangnan and made great contributions, he never enjoyed this kind of treatment.

After all, Li Xiaogong, who is the coach, did not enjoy this kind of treatment. Even when he returned to Beijing, few people took care of him. How could he, a lieutenant general, enjoy this kind of treatment.

It was precisely because of this that he was flattered to enjoy this kind of treatment for the first time.

Mainly because he knew very well that the benefits of the royal family are not for nothing, and the rest of the royal family must also ask for something, and the royal family generally does not ask for much. .

Li Jing didn't know that Li Yuanji was going to let him bury his life there, and he didn't know what method Li Yuanji was going to use to kill him, so he was a little panicked and a little shocked.

So after saluting to Li Yuanji several times but getting no response, he called out cautiously.

Li Yuanji came back to his senses, looked at Li Jing who had been washed clean and put on a purple robe, and said with a smile: "Washed?"

Li Jing nodded his head abruptly, feeling more bad in his heart.

Ever since he learned that Li Yuanji had become the biggest winner and beneficiary of the coup in the palace, he knew that it was inevitable to serve Li Yuanji.

So he asked Su Dingfang, Luo Shixin and others to get to know Li Yuanji in private.

What the two of them said was straightforward and long-winded, but they just didn't say much useful things.

The only thing he remembered was that Su Dingfang said, when Li Yuanji smiled at you, you were ready to run around for Li Yuanji.

Don't refuse, and don't take chances, because Li Yuanji doesn't like people who don't know what to do.

Luo Shixin said that Li Yuanji is a person who values ​​love and righteousness. As long as he treats each other with sincerity and lets him drive him, Li Yuanji will definitely not let him down.

He automatically ignored Luo Shixin's words, because he is a person who plays with military strategy and always likes to think the worst of people's hearts, so he can't treat anyone with sincerity, and he can't do anything at all. No purpose, no scruples to risk at the mercy of others.

So Luo Shixin, he can't do it.

So what he can remember and use is only Su Dingfang's words.

Now, Li Yuanji smiled at him, and his attitude was more kind than when he went to meet Li Yuanji with his younger brother last time.

That shows that Li Yuanji's purpose of calling him back to Beijing this time is not pure, but also very dangerous.

So he has to be mentally prepared.

As for the refusal, as far as he knew, since Li Yuanji came to power, those who rejected Li Yuanji seemed to have no good end.

So refusal is not within the scope of his consideration.

He didn't think about refusing, because he didn't mind being driven by those in power in Datang, and he didn't suggest making contributions to Datang.

The reason why he rejected Li Yuanji's solicitation before was purely because he didn't want to get involved in the struggle between the three Li Yuanji brothers. Now that the struggle is over, Li Yuanji has become the biggest winner. will not be a political victim.

He has no reason not to play for Li Yuanji.

"All right……"

Li Jing was thinking about something, forced a smile, and said something.

It would be better for Li Jing not to smile, because this unnatural and far-fetched smile is really ugly on his face.

"How well are the servant girls in Tangchi serving?"

Li Yuanji asked again with a smile.

Li Jing nodded quickly and said, "Everything is fine..."

In fact, he didn't even look at those palace maids, he let them manipulate him for a while like a wooden man, but those palace maids took a good look at him.

Li Yuanji smiled and nodded, "Then I will give them all to you, and I hope you can treat them well."

In fact, Li Yuanji didn't like to do this kind of thing.

But this is a practice in the palace, and the purpose is to treat heroes favorably while maintaining the purity of the palace.

Although the purity in the Tang Palace had long been buried by Li Yuan, the purity on the surface still had to be maintained.

Li Jing also knew that this was a custom in the palace, so he didn't refuse, and nodded happily, agreeing.

Not long after Li Jing returned to Zhaode Hall, An Xinggui also finished washing.

Compared to Li Jing who spent nearly half an hour in the Tangchi, An Xinggui went through all the procedures in a quarter of an hour, and removed the face scarf, revealing a thin face with vicissitudes of life, with a faint blush on his cheeks .

This is not rouge, this is plateau red.

This is caused by long-term exposure to wind and sun in people in cold regions.

"Your Highness!"

After An Xinggui arrived, he glanced at where his subordinates were, and after confirming that his subordinates had also been taken down for entertainment, his expression softened a lot, and he clasped his fists and saluted.

"Since both of you are here, shall we talk while eating?"

Li Yuanji said with a smile.

After speaking, he did not give An Xinggui and Li Jing a chance to refuse, and led them into Zhaode Hall.

The food and drink had already been prepared in the hall, and after everyone was seated, some new dishes were served.

Mainly hot dishes, the purpose is to keep warm and prevent the meat oil from solidifying.

Li Shentong and Li Xiaogong sat together very intimately, and gave up the seats on one side to An Xinggui and Li Jing.

An Xinggui sat on the first seat on one side, a little unnatural, while Li Jing sat on the second seat with poise.

Mainly because of An Xinggui's status, it is not easy for him to sit face to face with Li Shentong and Li Xiaogong on this occasion.

His position originally belonged to Li Xiaogong, but Li Xiaogong offered to give it up in order to entertain him.

"Mr. Liang, you don't have to be restrained. My cousin gave you this position to make amends for you. Just now, when you showed us the bravery of Liangzhou men, my cousin thought you were demonstrating against us. Well, so I complained to you a few words.

After realizing that you were telling us that the man from Liangzhou was still capable of fighting, he felt ashamed, so he gave up the position to you.

So you don't have to feel embarrassed, and you don't have to be restrained. "

Li Yuanji saw that An Xinggui was sitting there like a grandson chanting scriptures, as unnatural as he could be, so he simply spoke up.

Hearing this, An Xinggui quickly stood up and explained: "I absolutely did not intend to protest to His Highness. I just think that His Highness summoned me to Beijing this time to see if I can be of great use. I am from Liangzhou. Whether the man can still fight or not, that's why I showed it to His Highness, but I don't think it has any other meaning."

Li Yuanji laughed and said: "Sit down, sit down, I know you are sincere, so I treat you with courtesy. If I really thought you were protesting against me, I would have beaten someone a long time ago. How could I let you sit down?" it's here?"

As he spoke, he pointed at Li Shentong and the others and said, "They all know that I have a bad temper, and they absolutely don't want to move my mouth when I can."

Li Shentong and others nodded one by one.

Li Xiaogong even raised his wine cup and said to An Xinggui: "It's me who treated An Gong's belly with a villain's heart. I will punish myself with three cups and apologize to An Xinggui."

An Xinggui hurriedly raised his glass to drink.

Although Li Yuan was more polite than Li Xiaogong when he invited him to a banquet at the beginning, but he never made a big deal of it.

This was the case last time when I accompanied Li Yuan to a banquet in the palace, and it is also the case this time.

A lot of things, if you talk about it, explain it clearly, or even make it clear in a gag way, it will pass. Not only will there be no conflicts and unhappiness, but it will also bring the relationship between each other closer.

After Li Xiaogong made amends to An Xinggui, An Xinggui was completely at ease and talked a lot.

Everyone ate, drank, talked and laughed together in Zhaode Hall, and the scene was very harmonious.

We didn't talk about business until we had eaten and drank enough.

Without Li Yuanji opening his mouth, An Xinggui took the initiative to invite Ying, "Your Highness, after I heard that the Turkic envoys were attacked in our Tang territory, I guessed that the Turkic people would come.

Is it related to the invasion of the Turks that His Highness summoned his ministers back to Beijing this time? "

Li Yuanji smiled and nodded.

An Xinggui immediately said solemnly: "Your Highness needs me to do anything, just ask. Although there are not many men in Liangzhou under my command, they can also cut a Turkic man's arm."

An Xinggui has never shied away from dealing with the Turkic people.

Not only because he was a courtier of the Tang Dynasty, but also because he and his men had feuds with the Turkic people.

Liangzhou, where he lives, is adjacent to the Western Turks, and is often harassed by the Turks. When the Turks went south to fight the grass valley, they often caused troubles in Liangzhou.

Many families in Liangzhou had their relatives taken away by the Turks.

It was precisely because of this that people in Liangzhou were very hostile to the Turkic people. As long as there was a chance to kill the Turkic people, even if the court did not open their mouths, they would take the initiative to join them.

After all, no matter whether it was the former Sui Dynasty or the Great Tang Dynasty, they all practice martial arts, and they always like to bully others, and they don't like to be bullied by others.

If you are bullied, if you don't bully and go back, you will be awakened by suffocation when you sleep.

This is the bloody courage brought to the people of the Central Plains by Shangwu, and it is completely two extremes with the Shangwen of the Song Dynasty.

One is that if you dare to bully me, I will bully you back, destroy your family, and take away all the money in your family.

One is that if you dare to bully me, I will bear the humiliation and even lose money.

These are two completely different styles and cannot be compared in the same breath.

Although Da Song's behavior of enduring humiliation and losing money can avoid damage, but Da Song obviously didn't ask tens of millions of people if they would agree to being bullied! ! !
People in the Central Plains have never lacked blood and bravery, what they lack is only the trust and understanding of those in power!
Those in power always use their own thoughts to guide the people at the bottom to do things, and they always use their own thoughts to speculate on the people at the bottom. Few people ask what the people really want.

What they ask for is not much, they want food and clothing, and an unyielding backbone!

If the two cannot be satisfied at the same time, they would rather be barefoot, hungry, and have an unyielding backbone!
