The most powerful emperor grandson of the Tang Dynasty

"But brothers, I don't know much about the things in the court, and I don't know much about our Highness. I just want to know one thing. Are we going to take action against the Arab Empire? It turns out that His Highness said it, and solved that... The affairs of Indochina will be put on our agenda here. Isn’t the matter of opening up new territories important? That will make us glorious in the history books.”

As soon as he said this, Li Chengyi's eyes immediately lit up. This guy came to the Western Regions from Chang'an City. Except for going home to visit relatives for two months, the rest of his time was spent in the army. This guy can do whatever he does, just to be remembered in history.

Of course, he is not bad now. Among the entire Li royal family, his status is considered very high. After all, among the entire royal family, except for Li Xiang, few other royal children can fight. This guy can also be regarded as a legitimate official for the royal family. If you are embarrassed, if something happens, Chang'an City will publicize it.

"You're a warmonger than me. I also want to be famous in history, but I'm afraid we can't make the decision on this matter. His Highness said so before he left, but we don't know what the actual situation is now. , let’s wait for news from His Highness, in short, we can’t go wrong by training our army to be strong.”

Cheng Chumo couldn't figure out what Li Xiang was thinking. If it had been in the past, after the war in Indochina was over, Li Xiang should have given them an order to either assemble troops or continue to garrison in various places. No matter which order it is, they can guess the next step. Who knows that there is no one now, and they just ask General Moren to rush to the southeastern peninsula. What is going on?
If Xiao Shougui was often around Li Xiang, he would probably be able to see through it now, but this guy has been away from Li Xiang for a long time. Now when he sees everyone's eyes, he immediately feels a little embarrassed.

"Don't look at me. Although I followed His Highness and can understand some things, you can count on your fingers how long it has been since I saw His Highness and how long I didn't know about his situation there. , so it’s useless for you to look at me, and I can’t give you the answer. If it’s really close, Mr. Zhang can do it here.”

In order to divert the firepower, Xiao Shougui immediately kicked Zhang Jiuli out. Zhang Jiuli was known as Li Xiang's number one think tank. When the county system was implemented in various parts of the Western Regions, Li Xiang sent this guy over. Facts have proved that at that time, Zhang Jiuli was The strategy is correct. This guy did a good job. He did not cause large-scale turmoil in the Western Regions, and he also completed the implementation of the county system. If you want to talk about people who understand Li Xiang, this guy must be ranked first.

Of course, I don’t mean that I know Li Xiang. The most important thing is that I have a good brain. Otherwise, do you think anyone can have the title of No. 1? Xiao Shougui's brain is not bad, but compared with Zhang Jiuli, there is still a certain gap.

"Mr. Zhang, tell us quickly. Look at how anxious the brothers are. His Highness asked us to stock up on weapons and equipment when he left. We don't even know how much gunpowder we have stocked now. With the weather like this in the Western Region, in case something happens If things go wrong, our brothers will be in trouble."

Li Chengyi said with some worry that although the gunpowder is placed underground and in a dry and ventilated place, if the temperature continues to rise, it will have a certain impact. His main task these days is to build construction projects in various places. A group of small warehouses moved a large amount of gunpowder out, so that if something happened, they wouldn't all be blown up with one shot.

"I'm just an idea maker. Regarding decision-making, I really don't dare to make random guesses. No matter what His Highness does, he must have his reasons. I think we shouldn't make too many guesses. If we really let His Highness know If you do, we will be blamed, so just do what you are doing..."

Seeing that Zhang Jiuli was about to leave with a haha, Cheng Chumo also made up his mind and quickly blocked the door. Zhang Jiuli was a cunning guy who always listened more than talked, but this person was still close to Li Xiang. The first think tank, so when everyone discusses something, they will invite this guy. A few words at a critical moment can save everyone a lot of trouble. For example, the arrangements for the noble princes of the Western Regions were originally to be sent to Chang'an City, but there were too many people. If all the capable people were sent, tens of thousands of people would have to be sent. Safety on the road is a problem. Whether Chang'an City can accommodate it is also a question.

If there are too many foreign students in the Imperial College, will it affect our own people? So Zhang Jiuli proposed another plan, which was to create a branch of the Imperial College around the Anxi Protectorate, and invite some great scholars of the time from Chang'an City to teach these second- and third-class princes.

This way they don't have to travel long distances, they don't have to worry about their safety on the road, and the most important thing is to save money.

These young masters are all rich, plus they have many followers. If things go on like this, the area around the Anxi Protectorate will become a huge city. This will be of great benefit to the entire Western Region, and the imperial court has approved it. After accepting this request, the market here is now the third largest market in the Western Region.

So even if Zhang Jiuli doesn't talk much at ordinary times and may pass on what they say to Li Xiang, he still has to invite this guy for some important things. Who makes this guy talented? Who makes our brains inferior to others?
At the time, they didn't understand that Zhang Jiuli was obviously a corrupt criminal and had done countless bad things in Sichuan, so he should cut off this bitch's head with a knife, so that he could be worthy of Sichuan. of common people.

But now they understand that Li Xiang saw that this guy had talent at that time. A head is nothing to the entire Tang Dynasty. You can have as many as you want. But if this guy is given a chance, then he will do it. What comes out will benefit the Tang Dynasty a lot.

Facts have proved that Li Xiang's strategy at the time was correct. If he had not done so, he would not know what the situation would be now.

"Generals, you really blocked me here..."

Looking at the generals in front of him, Zhang Jiuli nodded with a wry smile. He had to analyze it for them... (End of Chapter)
