This prince, it doesn't matter if you don't do it!

Chapter 740 Volume The shameless officials of the Tang Dynasty are the most terrifying

Everyone actually understands Li Er's intention, but what's the use of understanding it?

Nowadays, Li Er is quite determined to have his own way.

Of course, there are many people who oppose it, and Li Er himself is annoyed.

Do you really think there is no pressure for him to do this?

Nonsense, even if he is an emperor, his life is not as easy as others think.

Every sleepless night, only he himself knows why.

In order not to make people annoy him, Li Er devoted all his energy to the Southern Expedition.

Speaking of which, he has been on the expedition for so long, and if he has no results, it really doesn't make sense.

On this day, when Li Er was discussing with the ministers, someone came to report: "Your Majesty, Duke Fan is here to report."

When he heard that it was Duan Zhixuan's memorial, Li Er immediately became energetic: "Quick, present it."

The reason why he has not continued to go south is simply because Nanzhao has not yet been decided.

He didn't want there to be turmoil in the rear when he went south to use his troops.

Therefore, before troops leave Siam, the most important thing is to pacify Nanzhao.

After Li Er read Duan Zhixuan's memorial, Long Yan was delighted: "Okay! As expected of a famous general of the Tang Dynasty! He has completely captured Nanzhao in a short period of time."

In the past, Datang ruled Nanzhao in name only. To put it bluntly, it was just in name.

At first, Li Er didn't think it was anything.

After all, Nanzhao really doesn't have much luck. Besides, they are all foreigners, and the Han family is not willing to go. It's just a name, and it doesn't cause trouble for themselves.

It can be seen that Li Chengqian was able to achieve his current achievements in the land of Tuyuhun, and Li Er was obviously interested in those Jisi Prefectures that he had looked down on before.

Li Chengqian's success only illustrates one truth, that is, there are no good or bad people in the world, only mediocre people.

"Your Majesty, this is a good thing." Upon hearing this, Yuchi Jingde hurriedly said, "In this case, won't we be able to leave Siam?"

Before Nanzhao was defeated, the army had been making preparations for the war. To be honest, they had had enough.

Of course, the army is not idle either. Lingnan is already a smog-stricken place. It can be imagined that in places like Luo Zhong, the army has been slowly adapting to the climate here recently.

Speaking of this, they still learned from Daming.

At the beginning, they were also curious about why the Tang army felt all kinds of discomfort as soon as they arrived in Tubo, as if they were possessed by evil spirits, but the Ming army seemed to be fine.

Finally, they heard someone from Daming say that this was because of regional differences, and as long as they got used to it, it would be fine.

They still understand this truth. After all, this kind of thing has happened since ancient times.

Of course, this was passed down by those people and became the current version, but in general, it is still very different.

Therefore, it is not surprising that the Tang army has adapted to the climate of Lingnan.

"It is indeed good news." Hou Junji also said after hearing this, "Now, our stay in Gaozhou is not short. Although the training has not stopped, this is not a long-term solution after all."

Hearing this, Li Er nodded: "It is indeed time to send troops.

I heard that that kid Gao Ming has already captured Zhongtianzhu. If I, the Tang Dynasty, make no further achievements, I am afraid I will be embarrassed. "

"The Ming Dynasty has captured Zhongtianzhu?" The officials were stunned when they heard this.

Is this too fast?

Strictly speaking, the Ming Dynasty had already captured Zhongtianzhu before their army even stepped out of the country?

"Your Majesty, isn't this right?" At this moment, Li Ji, who had always been very low-key, suddenly said, "Even if the Ming Dynasty goes south to send troops, the most important thing to win at this time should be Northern Tianzhu. How can it cross Northern Tianzhu?" Capture Zhongtianzhu?

This is unreasonable. "

After hearing what Li Ji said, everyone reacted.

There are five parts of Tianzhu in the southeast, northwest and middle.

Zhongtianzhu is in the middle. They do not doubt that Ming Dynasty can attack Zhongtianzhu, or even that Ming Dynasty can attack five Tianzhu.

But they really can't understand the way you blossom in the middle.

"Having said that, I'm afraid of irritating you." Li Er heard this and smiled helplessly, "The Ming Dynasty took over central Tianzhu without even using a large army.

Do you still remember those merchants who followed Gao Ming in Jingyang? "

"Of course it's clear." After hearing this, everyone hurriedly said, "Wang Dequan, we deal with each other quite often. As for Li Qinjian, we hear about him from time to time. On the other hand, about Yang Lin, we rarely hear about him. But I heard about this person. Now that he is the governor of Chuihe County, he has soared into the sky."

"Yes." Li Er breathed a long sigh of relief after hearing this and said, "Who would have thought that a group of businessmen in the past could achieve such success now?

What's even more unexpected is that Yang Lin's eldest son, Xing Shang Tianzhu, could single-handedly destroy a country. Do you dare to think? "

With that said, Li Er briefly explained how Yang Dalang used his troops to destroy Central Tianzhu.

When everyone heard this, everyone looked suspicious, with expressions of complete disbelief.

"Have these five Tianzhus been ruined to this extent?" Hou Junji asked in confusion, "Can a single merchant destroy a whole country by borrowing troops from Nibala?

Moreover, what happened to Nibalo?

If a merchant asks them to borrow troops, are they willing to fight for him?

Also, don’t the other four Tianzhus even understand the meaning of lips dying and teeth cold? "

Who would dare to believe this if told?

If the news of a merchant destroying his country by himself spreads out in the Tang Dynasty, wouldn't it shock the world?

It can even arouse the yearning of countless businessmen.

"It's not as shabby as you think." Li Er shook his head and said, "Yang Dalang can succeed. First, he is not an ordinary merchant. His identity is the Ming Dynasty Imperial Merchant, and he represents the Ming Dynasty. Having official status.

Secondly, Zhongtianzhu was unreasonable first, and the other Tianzhus couldn't say much. In addition, the Ming Dynasty was now strong, and neither they nor Nibala dared to offend him. All he could say was that the king of Zhongtianzhu was really stupid.

The most important thing is that the kings of the other four Tianzhus are also short-sighted. The Ming Dynasty has never thought about their Tianzhu. In addition, the road is far away and blocked by mountains. They think that the Ming Dynasty will not stay in Tianzhu for a long time. They are still waiting for Yang Dalang to leave and divide it up. Zhongtianzhu..."

As he said this, Li Er shook his head. Why didn't he meet such a cute opponent?

Of course, he found it boring to fight against such an opponent.

But it was boring anyway, and the news from Daming still put a lot of pressure on him.

Not only him, but also people like Yuchi Jingde obviously felt the pressure.

"Your Majesty, now that Duan Zhixuan has solved the Nanzhao issue, it's time for us to send troops," Xue Wanche asked.

The Ming Dynasty has already captured central Tianzhu, so they should make some achievements.

Hearing this, Li Er just nodded and was about to speak about sending troops south, but Changsun Wuji said first: "Your Majesty, Nanzhao's civil affairs must be arranged before the army goes south.

Also, as the army moves south, Nanzhao also needs a large army to be stationed there. "

The cultural governance of Nanzhao was indeed a top priority. Although Nanzhao still nominally belonged to the Jixi Prefecture of the Tang Dynasty in these years, the Tang Dynasty never sent an official to participate in the local governance of Nanzhao.

Nowadays, it is really not easy to manage Nanzhao well.

"This is also a top priority." Li Er heard this and asked, "Who do you think can take on this important task?"

"Judging from the humble ministers, Zheng Guogong should be able to handle this important task." Changsun Wuji said hurriedly.

He had thought about it early on. Wei Zheng would cause chaos if he was placed in Chang'an.

It would be better to put it somewhere, and he believed that Wei Zheng would never refuse. Li Er's eyes lit up when he heard this.

Yes, Wei Zheng is really the most qualified person for this position.

First of all, this guy is people-oriented.

Secondly, this guy knows the Ming Dynasty very well. He has done almost nothing in these years and has been studying all kinds of things about the Ming Dynasty.

This would be beneficial to him in governing Nanzhao.

"That's it." Li Er nodded and said, "Let's draw up a decree. From now on, with the original Nanzhao prefectures as the core, Nanzhao County will be placed under Jiannan Road.

Wei Zheng was appointed as the governor of Nanzhao County.

Duan Zhixuan is the general manager of Jiannan Road March.

These two guys are old acquaintances and must be able to manage this area well. "

He had no idea what to do with Wei Zheng. Even if he had offended him in the court before, he never thought about what he would do to Wei Zheng.

Moreover, now the only way to maximize his interests is to reuse Wei Zheng.

He didn't want to bear the reputation of inciting his son and brothers to fight against each other.

As for Duan Zhixuan, he has contributed a lot to Rongzhou's success in governing Rongzhou over the years. In addition, by winning Nanzhao this time, he really does not need to compete for credit in Siam, Piao and other places.

Moreover, the Rong Prefecture he governed was originally the Jizu Prefecture, and it would be a good thing for him to cooperate with Wei Zheng in governing Nanzhao.

After finishing speaking, Li Er saw Hou Junji, Li Ji, Xue Wanche and Yuchi Jingde looking at him eagerly.

It was also funny in my heart.

He understood what these guys meant, and they were just anxious.

"I understand what you mean, but after all, our country, the Tang Dynasty, is a state of heaven. We cannot use troops against neighboring countries for no reason. We must have a reputation for doing so.

Just wait, you can always wait for the opportunity. "

Li Er is also a little funny.

In fact, he is already creating the opportunity. According to the time, it should be soon.

When everyone heard this, they cursed in their hearts, thinking, why did you go there so early?

But after thinking about it, Yuchi Jingde stood up and said with a sad and angry look: "Your Majesty, I still ask your Majesty to make the decision!"

Li Er was stunned when he saw him like this, you old man, what are you going to do?

If you are the Duke of the country, who can bully you?

The key is that Yuchi Jingde has always been good at bullying others.

"What's going on, Aiqing?" Li Er also asked curiously.

"A few days ago, I was in love with you. No, I took a concubine. I heard that she was a girl from Siam. She was born so upright.

For this reason, Wei Chen spent a lot of money.

But just this morning, the concubine disappeared. The ministers heard that it was her childhood sweetheart who was far away in Siam who abducted her.

As a majestic Duke of the Tang Dynasty, Wei Chen cannot even protect his own mother-in-law. How can Wei Chen have the dignity to stand in the court? Your Majesty, please make the decision for Wei Chen! "

After Yuchi Jingde finished speaking, all the ministers and even Li Er were stunned.

Good guy, you really dare to say that!

Is living a good life dignified?

Judging from the appearance of the two ladies in your family, I can't believe what you say about being dignified.

However, everyone also understood why Yuchi Jingde did this. Li Ji immediately said: "How brave. He actually kidnapped the family members of the Duke of Tang Dynasty in broad daylight. This Siamese is really brave."

After saying that, Li Ji cupped his hands towards Li Er and said, "Your Majesty, I would like to ask you to personally accompany the Duke of E to Siam!"

Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, when have we ever suffered such shame and humiliation? "

"That's right, that's right." After reacting, Hou Junji also said quickly, "The old minister and the Duke of E have been friends in adversity for many years. Now that my sister-in-law has been kidnapped, as brothers, how can I sit back and watch?

His Majesty……"

Everyone in the general camp was filled with indignation. Changsun Wuji and others shook their heads one after another.

Can you really pretend that no one knows what you want to do?

However, everyone did not stop him in a tacit understanding.

Everyone knew that they were looking for a reason to go south, and there was no reason to stop them.

In war, sometimes all you need is an excuse, no matter how lame it is, as long as you have it.

Although Li Er was speechless for a while, he also said: "Aiqing's experience is indeed pitiful, but it is a private matter after all.

In this way, I allow you to rest for more than a month and go to Siam to seek justice.

But after all, this is just Aiqing's family matter, and the army cannot accompany you.

Of course, it's a long way to go, and all the ministers are our loyal ministers of the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, this safety is the top priority, so just take all the generals there.

Remember not to damage the diplomatic relations between the two countries.

But don’t lose the face of Datang. "

Upon hearing this, everyone understood.

Immediately, Yuchi Jingde and others quickly received the order to express their gratitude.

Among these guys, who didn’t bring a hundred and eighty generals with them on this expedition?

With so many people added up, there are hundreds of members of the Guang family.

Of course, this does not mean that these hundreds of generals can capture Siam. The key point is that if anything happens to so many Dukes of the Tang Dynasty in Siam, it will be a big deal.

Datang had every reason to intervene militarily.

This is what everyone thinks.

After all, they were anxious.

Who told Ming Dynasty to be one step ahead?

The next day, early in the morning.

Yuchi Jingde, Hou Junji, Xue Wanche, Li Ji, Feng An and other civil servants and generals of the Tang Dynasty took their generals south and headed straight for Siam.

When the King of Siam received the news, he thought at first that it was the Tang Dynasty who had invaded. But when he found out the reason, the King of Siam was dumbfounded.

The Duke of the Tang Dynasty came to Siam to find his mother-in-law?

It was not that Siam didn't know about the Tang Dynasty's invasion of Gaozhou. At first, they thought it was the Tang Dynasty who wanted to attack Siam.

But I couldn't find the reason why the Tang Dynasty sent troops to Siam. I was relieved until I heard that the Tang Dynasty was using troops in Nanzhao.

But not long after he was relieved, the Duke of Tang Dynasty called his friends to come to his territory to find his mother-in-law. This was funny...

At this time, in the Siam Palace, a minister asked: "Your Majesty, what does the Tang Dynasty mean?"

When the king heard this, he was even more confused than him. He thought to himself, "Who should I ask?"

"Send an envoy to ask first." In desperation, the king had no choice but to say.
