Man Tanghong

Chapter 630 You Know Me
It's a pity that those in power don't need the people to have an unyielding backbone, because once the people have an unyielding backbone, the people in power will be the first to bite back.

As a person in power, what Li Yuanji should do most is to guide the people and guess the people.

But as a Han, especially a Han who has seen the history of panic and humiliation, Li Yuanji hopes to help the people grow an unyielding backbone after seeing the history of humiliation suffered by the Han.

However, this needs to be done after the work at hand is done, and it is not appropriate to do it now.

"I have felt Duke Liang's willingness to fight, and I am very pleased. Then I will tell Duke Liang what I think..."

Li Yuanji was very satisfied with An Xinggui's reaction. One of the sixteen heroes of the Wude Dynasty, he did not appear dissatisfied because of the change of power in the Tang Dynasty. On the contrary, he still maintained a certain degree of loyalty to the Tang Dynasty.

Immediately, Li Yuanji explained his plan to attack the Turkic court.

What An Xinggui heard was that his eyes were bright and he was overjoyed, he kept patting his thigh, wishing he could go back to Liangzhou right now and lead people into the Turkic royal court.

Li Jing frowned.

He is different from An Xinggui, the reason why An Xinggui's eyes are shining and overjoyed is purely because he was attracted by the supreme achievement that can be built by attacking the Turkic royal court, but he noticed the difficulties in it.

Although the royal court of the Turkic people is far less well-defended than the capital of the Tang Dynasty, nor is it garrisoned by as many soldiers and horses as the capital of the Tang Dynasty, it is also the confidant of a huge khanate.

There are countless tribes entrenched in the surrounding area, and there are also Jieli's palace tent cavalry left behind to guard Kehe Dun. If a hundred or ten cavalry go to sneak attack, they will not be able to get close to the golden wolf tent that symbolizes Jieli Khan's identity.

Therefore, the number of sneak attacks must reach a thousand, or even more, in order to make meritorious deeds.

How so many people hide their bodies and how they appear unexpectedly in the Turkic royal court requires precise deployment.

Therefore, this kind of thing cannot be done by Li Yuanji's mouth. It needs to be discussed, planned and deployed carefully.

As the main person who went to attack the Turkic royal court this time, Li Jing didn't hide it, and he didn't need to hide it. He immediately asked the doubts in his heart, "Your Highness, you have a careful plan, and you are going to send that Are you accompanied by soldiers and horses?"

Li Yuanji also didn't hide it, and said cheerfully: "My plan is to take advantage of the Turkic invasion and the internal emptiness, and let you sneak attack the Turkic royal court.

As for how to sneak attack and take those people there, you and Mr. Liang will discuss it together.

I have already said hello to all the soldiers and horses in the capital. You can go and pick people, but you can take away whatever you fancy. "

What he said was extremely irresponsible, but Li Jing was obviously relieved when he heard it.

The most fearful thing about doing this kind of thing is that someone is giving blind orders behind the scenes, especially those who hide thousands of miles away and don't understand anything.

Now, Li Yuanji has given him great autonomy, so he has a lot of room to play.

The success rate of doing this kind of thing is also much higher.

"Your Highness is right. When the Turkic people invaded this time, it was indeed a heaven-sent opportunity to sneak attack on the Turkic royal court. Since Your Highness trusts me and allows me to do things cheaply, I will definitely try my best to achieve His Highness's goal. Don't disappoint His Highness."

It wasn't until this moment that Li Jing agreed to attack the Turkic court.

But when he spoke, he kept his mind in mind, that is, he was going to take away the right to do things cheaply.

This right doesn't sound like much, but it can be of great use.

Many generals and schools who are going abroad want to have this authority.

Because possessing this authority is equivalent to possessing Shang Fang's sword.

As long as you don't rebel, you can do whatever you want with other things.

Li Yuanji knew very well that if he wanted the horse to run, he had to let go of the reins and graze the horse, so he ignored Li Jing's little thought.

"The matter of the surprise attack on the Turkic royal court will be left to the two of you. As for how to do it and how to choose people, it will be up to the two of you to discuss."

Li Yuanji said with a smile, and said to Li Shentong, Li Xiaogong, Qin Qiong, Xie Shufang and others: "You stay here and help Lianggong and Li Jing to check and fill in the gaps. You just keep the door wide open."

Li Shentong, Li Xiaogong, Qin Qiong, Xie Shufang and others all agreed.

An Xinggui and Li Jing couldn't believe their ears, and were also a little flattered.

Because it was the first time this kind of thing happened in Datang, and it was also the first time they saw each other.

In the past, when the Tang Dynasty had a military situation, the people in power in the Tang Dynasty would sit with them to discuss the military situation, discuss countermeasures, and finally choose a suitable family member to lead the army, or go to battle in person.

Li Yuan is like this, Li Jiancheng is like this, and Li Shimin is like this.

Li Yuanji suddenly became the shopkeeper, which made them a little uncomfortable and couldn't believe it.

"Did Mr. Liang find it incredible?"

Li Shentong asked cheerfully in An Xinggui's surprised and flattered expression.

An Xinggui and Li Shentong are also old acquaintances. When he first entered Beijing, Li Shentong received him. When he and Li Yuan had banquets, Li Shentong was also with him, so he and Li Shentong were also considered acquaintances. Can catch up with the conversation.

Facing Li Shentong's question, An Xinggui nodded his head and said hesitantly, "This Your Highness... seems to be a little different from Saint and the other two Highnesses?"

Li Shentong laughed and said, "Of course it's different, otherwise he wouldn't be the one sitting here now."

An Xinggui squirmed his lips and said nothing.

The struggle within the royal family is not something he can judge as a feudal official.

Everyone else can do it, but he can't.

Because he has a certain number of soldiers and horses under his command, his attitude also represents the attitude of tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under his command.

So he can't express his position easily, nor can he say more easily.

Even if everything has been settled.

Li Shentong saw An Xinggui's cautiousness, and said with a smile: "Our Highness, the biggest characteristic is that he has self-knowledge and tolerance.

He knows that his talent in leading troops is far inferior to you and Li Jing, so he just entrusted you with the task, and will not interfere with how you lead troops, nor will he interfere with how you lead troops in battle.

So you don't have to feel weird. "

Several core figures in Datang are almost all talented in both civil and military affairs, especially Li Shimin, who has achieved the name of an invincible commander on the battlefield.

Therefore, the vast majority of people in Datang have become accustomed to being dominated by the core figures of Datang when they participate in and discuss state affairs.

Now that the core figures in Datang don't care about their affairs, An Xinggui and Li Jing are a little uncomfortable.

Now, after Li Shentong's explanation, they understood and expressed their understanding, and even raised their hands and feet in their hearts to express their approval.

Because of this kind of thing, for generals like them, there are only advantages and no disadvantages.

It is no exaggeration to say that this kind of lord who only gives orders and doesn't care about the rest is the lord that all their generals dream of.

Under the leadership of this kind of lord, they can fully display their talents on the battlefield without worrying about being dragged down or being restricted by various rules.

"Your Highness is indeed very human."

An Xinggui felt emotional for a long time, and really wanted to say a few words to praise Li Yuanji, but he searched all his brains and couldn't find any suitable words, so he could only say these words in the end.

Li Shentong laughed slightly mockingly, he understood An Xinggui's embarrassment in wanting to praise Li Yuanji but couldn't find the right words.

Because after he learned that Li Yuanji had this attitude towards everyone who went out to fight, so did he.

In his opinion, what Li Yuanji did would easily fuel the ambitions of the generals. When the ambitions of the generals reached a certain level, they would rebel against the Tang Dynasty.

When he approached Li Yuanji with this question, Li Yuanji actually gave him an unexpected answer.

That is, "The person who should rebel will rebel sooner or later. Even if you keep an eye on him and guard against him, he will still rebel. It is better to attract them as soon as possible and catch them all."

He felt that Li Yuanji was inducing people to commit crimes, and even argued with Li Yuanji, but Li Yuanji told him that the root of crime is the human heart, because people's desires make them have a restless heart. This heart is immortal, even if it is strictly guarded against, it will still commit crimes.

And he also took himself as an example, saying, 'I just don't have that desire, I don't have that restless heart, so even if my father gave the jade seal to me, I didn't go to sit in that position'.

He was powerless to refute this.

Because after he helped to appease the vassal kings everywhere, and after Qu Tongtu took Li Chengqian to appease the officials at all levels in Eastern Shaanxi Province, whether Li Yuanji sat in that position was the master of the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, that position is now at Li Yuanji's feet. Even if Li Yuanji stepped up to it, there would not be too many objections.

It is no longer empty words for Li Yuanji not to be emperor, saying that he does not have that desire, because he has done it.

So facing Li Yuanji's words, he was powerless to refute them.

"Your Highness is indeed very human, but now is not the time for us to praise His Highness. Since His Highness trusts us and entrusts us with everything, shouldn't we discuss the business?"

Like Tang Jian, Li Jing is a man of action.

It's just that Tang Jian's real work is in government affairs, and Li Jing's real work is in military affairs.

After obtaining a major military mission and gaining great trust, Li Jing has no time to think about other things. He just wants to discuss a suitable sneak attack plan as soon as possible and complete it as soon as possible.

"Hahaha, Pharmacist, you can't wait."

Among the people present, most of them were not familiar with Li Jing, only Li Xiaogong was familiar with him, and only Li Xiaogong dared to tease Li Jing like this.

Because Li Jing used to be a general under Li Xiaogong's account and acted as Li Xiaogong's deputy.

Facing Li Xiaogong's ridicule, Li Jing showed a rare smile and said: "Old man, you know me well, as long as I encounter war, I have no time to think about other things."
