Datang first village

[Thank you for your support in the past four months, my king reached [-] average subscriptions yesterday]

When the imperial chef went to make pumpkins, Li Er and Li Yuanxing had already opened the seal.

Li Yuanxing's guess is that since Li Jing also wrote the seal, they planned to expand the results of the battle.

Li Er smiled and tore off Li Daozong's seal first.

After reading it once, I handed it to Li Yuanxing.

After reading it, Li Yuanxing said: "Brother Emperor, Li Daozong actually wants to go to war. With the excuse that the weather is cold and his troops are still redundant, he wants to take advantage of the opportunity of the Dengzhou Navy to occupy several large islands in the sea neck!"

"Can you stop it? Brother, remember that you gave Li Daozong the right to respond to circumstances. Wars with less than [-] people don't need to be approved by General Tiance's office, and if the Dengzhou navy is controlled by him!"

Li Er smiled and looked at Li Yuanxing after asking.

Li Yuanxing nodded his head: "One time after another, the opportunity to fight is lost. My brother thinks that sneak attack is the best policy, don't fight water battles. The Tang navy is not enough to fight Goryeo, just get stuck in a few key points, don't be greedy for credit!" "

"It's feasible!" Li Er nodded, wrote down an order, used the seal, and signaled Li Yuanxing to use the seal.

Li Yuanxing used a private seal and signed it.

The second one was from Chai Shao. When they didn't read the content, Li Er and Li Yuanxing said at the same time: "Of course this brother-in-law doesn't want to be the logistics captain, he wants to go to the front line!"

Sure enough, Chai Shao was asking for instructions, and he could mobilize 5 people, and he also got the consent of Li Jing, Shangshu of the Ministry of War.

Li Yuanxing suddenly had an ominous premonition, and quickly tore off Li Jing's seal.

The first sentence of Li Jing's statement is: the general is outside, and the king's fate is not accepted!

Li Yuanxing handed Li Jing's watch to Li Er without saying a word. Li Er frowned after reading it.

"As the Minister of the Ministry of War, Pharmacist is also the Generalissimo of the army and horses for this expedition. At the same time, he is holding the Tiger Talisman of his brother, and the Tiger Talisman of your General Tiance's Mansion. He has the power to make a decision at the moment. It is only an attack. With two cities, the probability of success or failure will change, one city can be raided successfully, and the other will need to fight hard!"

Li Yuanxing also said: "Brother Huang, Brother Yao thinks this is an opportunity, so it is likely to be a big opportunity. According to the information he said, Goguryeo's northern defense is empty enough to win the two cities in one battle."

"Yes, Goryeo is mobilizing heavy troops to attack Silla. Moreover, Mohe is attacking the northern part of Goguryeo, and Jian'an has less than 5000 troops. This is really an opportunity. Pharmacist is going to lose 2 people, and he will also take these two cities! "

Li Yuanxing shook his head: "No, the loss is too great!"

"The benefits are even greater!" Li Ercai is an ambitious man and a strategist.

Opening the seal of Hou Junji again, it was a military order.To put it simply, it is one sentence, if Chai Shao mainly attacks Liaocheng, he will attack Jian'an.If you fail, you are willing to commit suicide and apologize!

"Wulang, the general's courage cannot be broken!" Li Er also supported sending troops in his heart.

"Brother Emperor, it is the best policy to stop fighting when the strategic goal is achieved. Continue to attack when you see the benefits, which is not the way of a good general. Once you suffer a huge loss, it will affect the morale of the Tang army!" Li Yuanxing strongly objected .

Li Eryi patted the table: "Wulang, it's your idea to attack Liaodong. Take the two cities and form a horned situation. You can advance, attack, retreat, or defend. This is the safest way, and you can ignore a little loss."

"Brother Huang, I am opposed to taking the life of a Tang sergeant as a joke!" Li Yuanxing also had his own ideas.

The voice in the study became louder and louder, the two most powerful people in the Tang Dynasty were arguing, and the eunuchs, court ladies, and imperial soldiers outside the study could not help but back away from the study.

Li Er took out a map and took a picture: "Let Mohe attack the northern part of Goguryeo, not to occupy land, but to gain some advantage, and lead Goryeo to send troops. First attack Liaocheng, let the Khitan rush in, and attract all the backup troops. Then Jian'an is An isolated city, if Hou Junji can't take it down, take his head down!"

"Brother Huang, have you calculated the delivery speed of the courier? Since it is a fast attack, it is useless to attract troops. It is better to let Mohe cooperate with Chai Shao, let the Khitan cooperate with Hou Junji, and go down the city in one go!"

"Okay, good tactics!" Li Er quickly calculated the distance and the time for the messenger to hear the information.

After calculating the distance between the two cities, as well as the strength of the troops and the chance of a surprise attack: "Okay, good tactics. Goro is really clever." After Li Er finished speaking, he wrote the order himself.

Li Yuanxing quickly stopped him: "Brother Huang, when did my brother agree to go to the two cities at the same time?"

"I have thought about the tactics, but I still don't agree. I must fight, and the two cities can't hurt Goguryeo's muscles and bones. Ping Goguryeo." Li Er blocked Li Yuanxing with one hand, and quickly wrote the order.

Li Yuanxing was in a hurry: "Brother Huang, it is easy to attack the city, but difficult to defend it. What should I do when Goguryeo counterattacks?"

"Tune Niu Jinda, and then transfer one of the four guards of your Tiance, stationed in Liaodong. It only takes one year, and the city will be the most frontier city in the Tang Dynasty!"

What else did Li Yuanxing want to say, Empress Changsun and Wu Zhao came at the same time.

Help!Li Er smiled and asked Wu Zhao: "Mingyue, tell me, Goguryeo has a chance to occupy two cities and give you 40 slaves, is it good or not?"

"Bangzi, just beat him to death!" Wu Zhao replied.

Hahaha!Li Er laughed heartily.

Quickly finished writing the order: "Wulang, I have been a clerk for you for a while, hahaha!" Li Erlian has written the transfer order of Tiance's four guards, but he didn't write the name of the general and the guard.

Li Yuanxing was helpless, and sighed heavily: "Brother Emperor, Tiao Ashinadur ordered him to use offense instead of defense. He was in charge of Liaocheng, and Hou Junji was transferred to the north to defend the northern Goguryeo army. Choose one of the twelve Wei, stationed in Jian'an City, Niu Jinda guarded Liao City. Back up Ashnadur, and..."

Having said that, Li Yuanxing hesitated.

Li Er knew what Li Yuanxing wanted to say, and nodded heavily at Li Yuanxing.

"Employees are not suspicious, and suspects are not. Niu Jinda and Ashnadur will cooperate fully to defend Liaocheng for one year, and give them honors!"

Li Er patted Li Yuanxing on the shoulder a few times: "Goro, very good!"

Li Er has used many subdued generals, he has very strong confidence in himself, and also believes that under the prosperity of Datang, these subdued generals will not be reversed, and will only become more and more loyal.

Another decree was written.

Added the post of fifth-rank general to Ashnadur, bestowed ten beautiful maidservants, ten official slaves, and Qian Qianguan.Go to Liaodong in three days!

After all the orders and imperial edicts are written.

Empress Changsun smiled and said: "I have heard your quarrels in the harem. Mingyue brought a lot of gifts today. Of course, there is a banquet in the harem without you two brothers."

"Come here, secret decree!" Li Er handed over all the orders and imperial decree to Eunuch Gao, and then dragged Li Yuanxing to the harem.

The imperial chef has already put the food on the table, because the number of pumpkins is limited, and other staple foods have also been prepared.

There are only four of those small pumpkins that weigh one catty filled with candied fruit and steamed glutinous rice, and they are naturally Li Er and Empress Changsun, Li Yuanxing and the concubines of King Qin, Wu Zhao, the four noble concubines of the palace, and the noble concubines. Ladies, put one each.

Then, pumpkin soufflé, fried pumpkin pie, and pumpkin egg scones are served as desserts.

Next, pumpkin sweet and sour balls, beef pumpkin stew, and steamed pumpkin as dishes.

Finally, there is a pumpkin and red date porridge as a soup.

"I prefer pumpkin and millet porridge!" Li Yuanxing said with a smile, but the chef was helpless because all the pumpkins had been used up.On the contrary, Li Er waved his hand to signal the imperial chef to step back, and said to Li Yuanxing, "How many of these pumpkins will there be when the new crop comes out this season?"

"After planting three hundred acres, there must be a million catties." Li Yuanxing said with a smile.

Li Er nodded slightly. It is a good thing to have more food.

There will be a big locust plague next year. No more than five people know this secret, but there are only four sitting here, Li Yuanxing, Li Er, Empress Changsun, and Wu Zhao.

After taking a bite of pumpkin soufflé, Li Er's expression changed.

After Li Er quickly tasted all the pumpkin dishes, he immediately asked Li Yuanxing: "It's so delicious, why did Wulang increase the planting area. This product is very good, and the people of Tang Dynasty will have a good taste!"

"Because there are better ones, I'm not willing to take a bite myself, so I saved them all!"

"Wulang is the blessing of the Tang Dynasty!" Li Er praised Li Yuanxing from the bottom of his heart, and then waved his hands to everyone in the first seat: "Use it all, and taste this delicious food."

All the noble ladies first thanked you: "Thank you, my lord, thank you King Qin!" After thanking, they picked up their chopsticks.

Seeing Li Er's satisfied expression when he ate the delicious food just now, several young concubines were already envious, but they dared not lose their etiquette, with only one exception.Princess Qin Zheng Xiuyan actually reached out to pick up a piece and put it in her mouth.

Li Er ate another piece, and seeing that Li Yuanxing didn't move his chopsticks, the three Qin concubines and Wu Zhao ate it all.But I was a little moved in my heart: "Come here, divide up half of what I have and send it to the palace school!"

Those who can be in the Imperial Palace Academy have a good status even as companions, not to mention the young prince and princess studying there.Li Er was stimulated by Li Yuanxing, his father's love exploded.

Li Er and Li Yuanxing are the only ones who can do it, because if it is not for the small portion, there may not be enough for others.

Li Yuanxing didn't pay much attention to pumpkins at first, but brought them to Datang because Wu Zhao liked them. The seeds he brought were not too many, only a small bag.

Wu Zhao even planted a lot in the greenhouse in winter, and the growth is naturally better than putting it in the field.

However, under careful care, I didn’t eat them during the Chinese New Year, but they matured a lot in the spring, which gave Datang a lot of pumpkin seeds. After this season’s planting in King Qin’s Farm, Datang will have many places where we can grow pumpkins after next year. planted.

Pumpkin is also a vegetable and a food. It tastes more beneficial than sweet potatoes. The only difference is the yield.

Li Yuanxing didn't say any more about pumpkins, nor did he mention his new food.

That night, Li Yuanxing did not stay in the palace, but went back to Admiral Tiance's mansion.

"Your Highness, why don't you stay in the palace. The empress has ordered someone to arrange a place to stay!" Zheng Xiuyan asked! (To be continued.)
