Datang first village

Li Yuanxing knew that King Gaochang was referring to the Turkic Jieli Khan's horse, saying that it had injured its leg, which was just an excuse.An excuse for Li Yuanxing and Li Er not planning to reward the horse.If the horse will not be rewarded by the generals of the Tang Dynasty, but will definitely be the Turkic tribes, such spoils must be kept.

As for things like pearl necklaces, like the one worn by Cui Yingying, there are only two in the entire Tang Dynasty.

A bunch of belongings belonged to no one in Prince Qin's mansion.It belongs to the inner library in the backyard, and it is something to show off.The other string is stored in the palace and still does not belong to the individual.It's all the same, you can wear it, but you can't own it.

Li Yuanxing squinted his eyes and seemed to be looking at King Gaochang, but he was actually thinking about the records he had read about King Gaochang.

Suddenly, Li Yuanxing laughed.

"Okay, I will give you that horse as a gift. There are only two strings of such pearls in the world, and the other string is already in my imperial brother's treasury. Forget it!" Li Yuanxing sighed softly: "Human, go get the king's pearl. string."

King Gao Jing immediately went down the donkey: "His Royal Highness King Qin of the Tang Dynasty, Xiaowang is here as a new tax treaty country, and I will present a box of seven-color gems."

Li Yuanxing laughed a few times along with him, and motioned for the guards around him to accept the gift, as well as Guo.

"His Royal Highness King Qin, Xiao Wang will leave tomorrow morning, and immediately go back to arrange tax reform." King Gaochang hurried away again.

Li Yuanxing got up: "The king of Gaochang came to my Tang Dynasty far away, but the king has not fulfilled the propriety of the landlord. I am very disturbed, since it is an important matter. The king will give you the right to trade thousands of pieces of brocade and ten thousand catties of snow salt in Gaochang every year."

"Thank you His Royal Highness King Qin of the Tang Dynasty!" King Gaochang said cheerfully.

To Li Yuanxing's surprise, Murong Shun from Tuyuhun was also about to leave.The reason is that I have been here for ten days, and there is a backlog of government affairs, so I have to go back to deal with them.

Li Yuanxing didn't keep him anymore, but sent Wei Ting politely to send him out.

"King Yiwu, stay for a few more days. The king has something important to tell you!" Li Yuanxing spoke to Yiwu in an unfriendly tone, and King Yiwu was stunned for a moment before getting up and saluting: "His Royal Highness King Qin orders!"

"Recall carefully what happened between Gao Chang and you Yiwu in the past year, and what actions Gao Chang did. The king sent an important person to have an in-depth talk with you. This matter is very important. King Yiwu has worked hard. "Li Yuanxing still said this with a straight face.

When King Yiwu heard this, he was filled with joy, thinking that Li Yuanxing was going to stand up for him.

After King Yiwu went out, Li Yuanxing said to Lu Maofeng next to him: "Tomorrow, after the guests leave. I am going to have a meeting and arrange someone to have a good talk with King Yiwu today. The king is very disturbed. Don't talk too much, today Don't mention a word, and don't monitor those guests!"

Lu Maofeng gave a very solemn military salute and then retreated.

Li Yuanxing's complexion was very bad, which made everyone a little afraid to approach, even Qiuxiang couldn't help but backed away a few steps.

No matter how kind, no matter how kind.

It can't stop the bloodiest title of King Qin of the Tang Dynasty.In the Tang Dynasty, King Qin represented not only power.The first king of Qin known to the world was the king of the Great Qin Empire. He conquered the world with iron and blood.The second one known to the world is that he also brought down the Tang Dynasty with iron blood, and let this iron blood swallow his brother.

the third.The first battle of his debut changed the relationship between Datang and Turks.

Li Yuanxing's complexion was not good.No one wants to touch this mold.

"Wang goes to the room. I want to be alone for a while. Don't disturb Wang if there is nothing important." Li Yuanxing's tone made everyone even more nervous.

After Li Yuanxing sat in the little reading tent, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Highness is unhappy!" Lu Maofeng asked after returning.

Qiuxiang stood in front of the small tent where Li Yuanxing lived with a straight face: "Do you still need to ask?"

Lu Maofeng didn't dare to ask any more questions, and ordered the two guards in charge of guarding to guard, while he went to the packing place to have a look, the bones of the giant beast are also a big deal right now.

Li Yuanxing was not happy. Only a dozen or so guards knew about this matter.

Even the two princesses of Qin were not informed.

He only said that His Royal Highness Prince Qin had some official business to deal with, so he would not accompany the two concubines that night.

The next day, when Wei Ting sent the two guests away on behalf of Li Yuanxing, Lu Maofeng had already started calling the generals.

Those who came to the big tent of the conference naturally included Li Xiaogong, Zhang Gongjin, and Yan Shigu.Then came Li Yuanxing's side, Zhili Sili, Su Dingfang and several other generals.Xue Wanche from Yulin.

This Xue Wanche is a character, he and his younger brother were from Prince's Mansion and King Qin's Mansion respectively.

He is a general of the Prince's Mansion, and he fought to the death for the Prince during the Xuanwu Gate Incident.Later, he was dressed up by Yu Chigong and fled into the Qinling Mountains. Li Shimin personally invited him out, thinking that since he was a member of the prince's mansion, it was his loyalty to fight for the prince, not his fault.

Although Xue Wanche was a bit stupid, he was extremely brave. Yu Chigong and him even felt headaches fighting alone.

"I heard that barbarian actually robbed the Prince Qin's residence." Xue Wanche opened his mouth without waiting to salute anyone as soon as he entered. "As long as His Highness orders, those goods can't travel ten miles, and they will be broken into bones and brought back!"

"His Royal Highness the King of Qin should have used the strategy of borrowing treasures when he falsely attacked Guo. Stabilize Gaochang. In a few years, when Gaochang is destroyed, BMW will still be BMW, and pearls will still be pearls. They can also be returned." Zhang Gongjin As he spoke, he said to Xue Wanche: "General Xue, don't worry, anyone who dares to disregard his dignity in front of His Royal Highness King Qin will definitely be severely punished, and Gaochang will not last three years."

All the generals said one after another: "General Zhang is brilliant."

Li Yuanxing was paid at this time, and everyone stood up according to their status after saluting.

"What Wang wants to know most is when the spring market with Tuyuhun will open next year. Send someone back to Chang'an as soon as possible, and ask General Qin to send someone to investigate!"

"Your Highness, why did you suddenly check the time?" Su Dingfang asked.

Li Yuanxing sat down and motioned everyone to sit down: "I checked the information last night. King Gaochang is not a greedy villain, nor is he the kind of person who is greedy for small profits and money. Moreover, King Gaochang has read many of our books. It can be said that his knowledge is no less than that of a learned scholar in Datang!"

"What does your Highness mean, is he using tricks?" Su Dingfang asked.

Li Yuanxing nodded: "The king checked the terrain and found that Ganzhou is the only way for me to go to Yiwu from Tang Dynasty. If I don't go to Ganzhou, I will either borrow the road from Tuyuhun and go around five hundred miles. It is estimated that Tuyuhun will not borrow it. Or go north into the desert, and the army walks in the desert, not to mention how dangerous it is, there is no way to guarantee the logistics alone, and the desert is hundreds of miles away."

"Your Highness thinks that Tuyuhun wants to attack Yiwu!" Li Xiaogong asked.

Li Yuanxing signaled his personal guards to be alert, and then used a small hand-held projector in the meeting room to show the road map of Gaochang, Yiwu, and the terrain in the northwest of Datang.

"As long as Tuyuhun blocks Ganzhou, only a few thousand soldiers will stop my Tang army for half a month, and Yiwu will disappear."

"Your Highness, the spring market is already around the tenth day of April. The ice and snow in Tuyuhun only start to melt in March. Even if the caravans leave in mid-March, the opening time of the market is barely on the tenth day of April. The real spring market is almost in mid-April. "Li Xiaogong obviously studied the climate and terrain in that area.

Li Yuanxing smiled:

"The king of Gaochang is very scheming. He pretends to be a money-grubbing fool, thinking that the king wants to plot against him. He intends to hold him back for a few years, but the king waits for a few years, but he starts early. He is so scheming and scheming. Could it be that the king is against The hostility shown by Gao Chang is too great, or..."

"Or there is a covenant between the Gaochang people and the Goguryeo people!" Su Dingfang whispered beside him.

"Shameless, especially shameless!" Yan Shigu cursed angrily.

Li Yuanxing laughed louder:

"Even if Yan Gong pointed at King Gaochang's face and scolded him, it didn't work. Politics is shameless. They chose the time too well. Wang Dajun went on an expedition to Goguryeo, so naturally he couldn't take Gaochang into consideration. He joined forces with Tuyuhun, and within ten days It can kill Yiwu!"

"Your Highness, five days at most. Three days sooner, Yiwu is a waste who is greedy for money and afraid of death!" Li Xiaogong also said.

Li Yuanxing waved his hand: "King Rong think about it, King Rong think about it!"

"Your Highness, Yiwu cannot be lost. Yiwu has many barriers, but they were built facing our Great Tang. It is very easy to attack from west to east. But our Great Tang is extremely difficult from east to west. Moreover, the road to Gaochang is too far away. For the transportation of military rations, save two out of ten!" Li Xiaogong hurriedly told Li Yuanxing Yiwu's important surname.

One hundred tans of grain, only twenty tans were transported to Yiwu.

With Yiwu here, he can solve a large part of the food problem.

But without Yiwu, food was transported purely from Chang'an, even in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, no matter how much food there was, it would not be able to support it.This consumption is too huge.

"Your Highness, if the cotton fields in the Tianshan Mountains are not guaranteed, our Tang Dynasty cannot afford the loss." Wei Ting also interjected.

Li Yuanxing shook his head with a wry smile:

"In April next year, if Goguryeo breaks the contract. Wang's army is in Gaochang. If I don't teach Goguryeo, my Tang Dynasty will lose face. From another angle, Wang Dajun went to Goguryeo, but Goguryeo accepted the contract, and Gaochang suddenly The king couldn't save him if he tried, the army was transferred to Gaochang, and the food consumption was too huge. And it may not be possible to defeat Gaochang quickly. It's another joke!"

"What if Goguryeo turns his face when His Royal Highness leaves?"

"The king has already calculated, and he will not be able to take care of the front and back at that time. It is not the lack of military strength, but the lack of logistics. There is definitely no way to guarantee the supply of military food on both sides."

Hearing what Li Yuanxing said, if all this is true, then Goguryeo and the people of Gaochang really did something big this time.

It's just that people don't understand.

How could His Highness King Qin see through this plot? If His Highness King Qin didn't tell the truth, then no one would think about all of this, link after link.
