Prosperous Tang special forces

Chapter 210
Li Shimin's words made it difficult for the guards to refute. After all, Long Feiyu's force is there. Although they are known as the most elite soldiers in the Tang Dynasty, if they really fight against Long Feiyu's frontier army, they may be killed in seconds.They had seen Long Feiyu's wolf riders before, and they had gone to find fault with them in arrogance, but the reality was very skinny, and they were beaten up violently.

Looking at the busy crowd, Long Feiyu led a group of people among them. Li Shimin saw that these people were full of energy, and when he saw an old man beside him, he stopped him and said with a smile on his face: "Old man, you are always like this!" You still come out to work when you are older?"

The old man said excitedly: "Long Xiang built this academy for the benefit of our common people. If we don't contribute, who will contribute? We are old, but there are descendants. This agricultural college alone has created so many benefits for the country." Good things for the people, I heard that there are medicine, craftsmen, and other researches, we can't wait to see the legendary plow that plows the land extremely fast."

Hearing what the old man said, Li Shimin smiled and said, "The old man is still used to eating and living in recent years?"

"Okay, when I was young, there was a war here, and after a while of silence, I started to fight again when I was middle-aged. I thought this life would pass like this, but I didn't expect that I would have enough to eat. My two sons are both carpenters. No one dared to make furniture for the family during the turmoil. Now, the family has surplus food, no furniture and no floor decoration. Now we have a lot of ways to survive. These years our life But it's getting better every year."

"Yeah, it turned out that our daughter-in-law didn't even dare to have children, and every time she gave birth, she had to pay taxes. Now it's all right, those who have land pay taxes, and those who don't have land don't care. When I die, my old man will have a lot of children and grandchildren." " Seeing Li Shimin's question, another old man said spontaneously.

"Then, do you think the Sui Dynasty is better or the Tang Dynasty?"

"Of course it was the Tang Dynasty. Those officials in the Sui Dynasty only knew about corruption and bribery, and never did anything for the people. Unlike the officials in the Tang Dynasty, they were all practical people. I remember a few years ago, there was a young I took a group of officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs to visit my house. At that time, I didn’t understand what was going on. The young man pointed at those officials’ noses and scolded me. It's over, who would have thought that the policy of the entire Tang Dynasty would change in a few days, and only then did I hear that the young man was sent by His Majesty to observe the people's situation. With such an emperor, such an official, I am an old man Now you can die in peace.”

A group of old men around began to chatter, and Li Shimin was obviously happy to hear Li Shimin's beard curling up and down.It is undoubtedly the success of an emperor to hear their recognition of himself from among the people.

Not far away, Sun Yun ran over bouncing, followed by a strong man.He stopped beside Long Feiyu with a face full of joy and said, "You have already found out what you asked to inquire. The two said that they met an old man with white beard and hair when they were hunting in Zhongnan Mountain. Raising pigeons for a living, the old man often uses some prey to exchange some daily necessities with them.”

"Really? That's just right. Can you invite the old man down the mountain?"

Just as the two were about to strike up a conversation, Long Feiyu suddenly waved his hands and said, "Forget it, I'll go up the mountain to invite you in person tomorrow morning."

Long Feiyu, who was talking, didn't notice the strangeness of the two of them. At this time, the two of them looked shocked, and then they knelt down on the ground with a "plop", and bowed to Long Feiyun. Seeing the two of them After performing this great gift suddenly, Long Feiyu stepped forward with some doubts, supported the two of them and said, "You two strong men, why do you do this? I just want you to find someone. You don't have to be so afraid, right?"

Hearing Long Feiyu's words, one of the strong men said excitedly: "Grandfather, do you know me? A few years ago, my brother and I robbed your road in the suburbs of Chang'an."

Hearing the two people robbing the aisle, the guards who were in charge of guarding surrounded them with a swipe, and put the knife on their necks in an instant. Seeing the speed of these people, Long Feiyu waved hurriedly: "All of us, retreat!" Come down."

Hearing what Long Feiyu said, those people stepped back, looked at the two of them carefully for a while, and Long Feiyu said doubtfully: "That's right, but I remember that you two were very thin at that time, and it's not the same as this meeting. Not like it?"

"When Engong met us, His Majesty Zhengzhi used troops abroad, and he couldn't even open the pot at home. There was still food to eat. If Engong forgave us both that day, perhaps neither of us would have been able to see what we are today. It's flourishing."

Long Feiyu smiled and said, "I wonder if your mother is still alive?"

"Now, my mother often talks about Engong. If Engong hadn't cured my mother back then, the two of us brothers would have been imprisoned."

Seeing the ambiguity of several people's words, Sun Yun asked with a puzzled face: "What are you talking about?"

Long Feiyu sighed and said: "Speaking of them, it is their credit that I was able to be in charge of the household department. When I came back from the border, because of a small incident, I had an unpleasant quarrel with my family. When I went for a walk, I accidentally met these two brothers. The two of them wanted to rob me. But I broke down the words in a few words. Seeing that this kid is quite filial, I rescued his mother. Originally, I was determined to be a marshal of the army and rule the world, but that day I saw The life of the people outside Chang'an is hard. As the capital of the Tang Dynasty, Chang'an is like this, and other places must be worse. Because of our ambition to make contributions, it is really not what I want to see the people of the world suffer. It happened that day His Majesty asked about the household department, and I agreed to it by the way. If I hadn't met the two of them, maybe I would still be a commander at this time."

"You are also the commander-in-chief now. I heard from my grandfather that you destroyed the Goguryeo country. Then how did you conquer such a big place in Goguryeo?"

Hearing the excitement Sun Yun said, Li Shimin pointed at the woman and said, "Who is this?"

"This is the granddaughter of Daoist Sun Simiao. Daoist Sun was invited by me to be the dean of the School of Medicine and one of the vice-presidents of the School of Knowledge."

"One? How many vice presidents are you going to recruit? And who is the principal?"

"Let's do the math, vice president, of course we need top-notch figures from all walks of life. I plan to invite the old marshal Li Jing to come out of the mountain, and also invite Li Ji, Xue Wanche, Ashina Simo, Su Dingfang, Liu Rengui, Li Xiaogong, Li Daozong, etc. As a guest lecturer, I came to teach the students military courses, and as for other subjects, I plan to invite some real talents, whether they are peasants from the bottom or high-ranking officials."

"I, me, boy of the Long family, what do you think of me? I can also be a lecturer and teach those students."

Long Feiyu shook his head and said: "You can't, you rely on luck to fight, if our Tang army relies on luck to fight, then it's okay."

"With such a grand scale, if these lecturers randomly pull out and stomp their feet, the whole Tang Dynasty will tremble. Who do you think can have such a great ability to restrain them?"

"That's why I didn't become the dean. The post of dean belongs to His Majesty. Let's set up a military research institute here and order local troops from all over the country to recommend generals who are above centurion to come to Chang'an Study, the schooling system lasts for one year, and after the completion of the studies, they will be redistributed according to their abilities, scattered and scattered to all parts of the country. Soldiers must have ideals, culture, and goals, so that this kind of army knows who they are loyal to, even if that Generals rebelled halfway, or for other reasons, these low-level officers will not blindly obey, so as to firmly hold the army in His Majesty's hands. The point of the sword is Datang."

Li Shimin is now immune to Long Feiyu, no matter what he pays attention to, as long as he tells himself, Li Shimin will not object.Out of doubt, he still asked: "Then why are you looking for a pigeon breeder?"

"Your Majesty, since the pre-Qin period, some people have discovered the habit of pigeons returning home and using pigeons to send letters. Although people often use pigeons, they are not so popular. I want to establish an information bureau. It takes two horses to get to the border from here. It will take more than a day, and the news of the border crossing will be sent back in more than half a day with the carrier pigeon. Your Majesty can understand the affairs of the world when he is in Chang'an."

"Okay, okay, with you here, I will be Shang Yang."

"Huh? I don't like being Shang Yang, but I like being Liuhou."

"Okay, when you are tired, I will allow you to rest, but I am not Liu Bang, I am not so mean and unkind, after the rest, I have to come out to do things."

Long Feiyu chuckled, this was Li Shimin's promise to him.Li Shimin didn't know how strong Liu Hou's ability was, it was because Liu Bang didn't dare to use it at all.But Li Shimin is different, he doesn't like Long Feiyu to be Liuhou, but he will never let Long Feiyu be Shang Yang, Li Shimin has such blind confidence in himself.

The conversation between the two fell into the ears of the surrounding people without saying a single word. It would be too frustrating if they didn't know the identities of these people at this time. I don't know who took the lead, and everyone knelt down On the contrary, while shouting long live, he was also thanking Long Feiyu.

Calling everyone to get up, the two strong men on the side knelt down again, and saluted Long Feiyu: "It turns out that Engong is the famous Xin Guogong. We two brothers can't see Mount Tai, but we still look forward to your kindness." Don't blame the public."

After the two finished speaking, they suddenly turned around and shouted to the crowd: "Folks, the person who cured my mother's serious illness was Xin Guogong. We all came to build the academy because we wanted him to benefit the people. Your Majesty and Xin Guogong are here. , we should speed up, so that the academy can be completed as soon as possible, and it can also benefit everyone early, don’t you think so?”

"Yep."

Seeing the high spirits of the crowd, Long Feiyu chuckled and said: "Since everyone said so, we won't say any more. We don't have the salary, but we are full of food. I will order people to kill pigs in a while. Sheep, nothing else. The Tuyuhun people attacked a cow and sheep recently, and a lot of them froze to death. Today, everyone is lucky. His Majesty will personally kill pigs and sheep for you. You must work harder. gone."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Duke Xin."

Looking at the innocent smiles of the people, Li Shimin was already infected at this time.Once upon a time, he didn't know that he had such a high prestige in the hearts of the people. Although he was slightly inferior to Long Feiyu, he could understand that such a high prestige must be a good thing that Long Feiyu did in his own name.

Otherwise, with Long Feiyu's actions of working for the welfare of the common people in various parts of the Tang Dynasty all the year round, then what's the matter with him.This also made Li Shimin ashamed, everyone is rushing to get fame, he is sending it out.

But that's good too, Long Feiyu offended many people, and all of those gentry would hate to eat their flesh alive. If it wasn't for the support of the army, the gentry would have fallen into chaos long ago.But even if they make trouble at this time, it won't cause much waves.The common people are well fed and warmly clothed. Who wants to fight with them unless their brains are flooded.

Besides, the only ones they can agitate are the gentry, and how many people can the gentry have. Originally, the common people were under the control of the gentry, but now they are all under the control of the imperial court.Even if they want to make trouble, no one will make trouble.
