Prosperous Tang special forces

Chapter 64 Disputes
Hearing the two talking about Long Feiyu, Empress Changsun interjected at the right time: "Father, don't worry. Although this Long Feiyu is powerful, he still cares about family affection. The quilt that Father is covering now is his. It was originally nothing to send someone back from Hexi, but because of an unjust case last year, Mr. Long and his son were seriously injured. Although Long Feiyu sent back the cotton-padded clothes to His Majesty, he was actually thinking about his family. Father, I'm afraid he's going to catch a cold. Just send these things back to Long's house with the help of Sanbao."

Li Yuan snorted, and suddenly pointed at Long Liang and said excitedly: "So your son is the hero who beat the Turks away?"

Talking about his son, Long Liang said modestly with some relief: "The Supreme Emperor is absurd, the dog is just a meager contribution, it is better for Mr. Zhang to lead."

Li Yuan waved his hands excitedly and said: "Ai Qing is wrong, I am also a person who knows how to fight. That Zhang Lan is more than enough to defend, if he is attacking him, he will not have that ability. I have long heard that there is a hero who is not born in the Tang Dynasty. The Turkic people were beaten and fled, so it turned out to be your child, Long Aiqing. It really impressed me that I haven't seen Feiyu for a few years."

As soon as Li Yuan finished speaking, Empress Changsun interjected: "Father, it's not just that. Your Majesty asked Long Feiyu to join his brother and General Yuchi to go to Binzhou to attack Luo Yi. My brother and General Yuchi dared not for a while because they were restricted by Chengqian. Attack. Luo Yi took advantage of the loopholes and chased them to the Jinghe Plain with cavalry."

"What? The Jinghe Plain? Where the terrain is open, even though there are trees blocking it, it is not difficult for the cavalry. So the whole army that went to crusade was wiped out?"

Seeing Li Yuan's anxious look, Empress Changsun hurriedly said, "No, Long Feiyu, who was originally in charge of the rear of the palace, led an army of [-], surrounded the entire plain with logs, and then drove the moving horses in bullock carts. An army of [-] besieged Luo Yi's [-] cavalry on the Jinghe Plain. Luo Yi was forced to leave his troops and flee to Jingzhou. On the way to Jingzhou, he was intercepted by Long Feiyu, but he knew that there was no hope of escape. He drew his sword and killed himself."

Hearing Luo Yi's suicide, Li Yuan frowned, and suddenly smiled at Long Liang: "Luo Yi knows that, being able to force a person with such a strong desire to survive to a decision shows how exciting this battle is. Okay. , Okay. What a general. I was worried about Jiumei's happiness at first, but now it seems that all worries are unnecessary. Maid of Guanyin, if Long Feiyu goes to court, you can let him come to me first. I'm good. Take a good look at this silly boy."

Empress Changsun's goal is very simple, that is, to tell Long Feiyu a princess, and she is happy to have achieved her goal now.Letting Li Yuan meet would not miss anything, so he didn't think long and said directly: "Since father wants to see you, I should report to His Majesty."

On the other side, when he heard Long Feiyu's so-called nine princesses, his mood was extremely complicated.Since the day she was sensible, she knew her destiny, the princess of the royal family, it was unattainable to say the least.But in the end, it was not a bargaining chip used by the emperor to win over powerful officials. As a princess, she had no right to decide her own marriage.

The only desire of the princesses is to be able to marry a husband they like. Although the ninth princess Long Feiyu has never met, such an outstanding man has long been spread throughout the palace, and everything about him has long since become a legend.That popular poem has long been popular throughout the Tang Dynasty.

Such a legendary figure, but he had no chance to meet him.Unexpectedly, this person turned out to be her fiancé, but unfortunately she missed him.But at this time, the Ninth Princess hadn't seen Long Feiyu, although it was a pity, she wasn't touched much.

During the discussion here, Long Feiyu and his group had already entered the court hall.Seeing a group of people filing in, the ministers were surprised, disdainful, and delighted, to name a few.

Li Shimin stared at Long Feiyu who was walking behind Yu Chigong and Changsun Wuji with a face full of relief. All the ministers looked at Long Feiyu with obviously friendly eyes. After this battle, Long Feiyu's rise has become inevitable. , no one can stop it.Since you can't change it, you have to try to change your attitude. At this time, everyone began to envy Qi Cheng.

There are a few people who can do it, but most of them are the icing on the cake.Facing the friendly eyes of the ministers, Long Feiyu also smiled kindly and tried to win over as many ministers as possible. Only in this way can he get the least resistance for his future reforms.

Different from Long Feiyu's hotness, Changsun Wuji's face was ashamed at this time.After all, kneeling in front of Luo Yi in front of an army of tens of thousands, although such a thing happened for a reason, it damaged the court's face.However, due to his status, this kneeling was entirely for the sake of His Majesty's son, so the ministers did not dare to make false accusations in order to avoid catastrophe.

All the generals who entered the hall bowed down to Li Shimin as a whole, shouting long live.Li Shimin stretched out his hands and said, "Please rise up, dear friends." After speaking, he stared at Long Feiyu with piercing eyes and said, "Long Aiqing, what reward do you want for your great achievements this time?"

"Your Majesty is admirable. The fact that Luo Yi can be wiped out so quickly this time is due to General Manager Yuchi's effective command, the cooperation of the eldest grandson, and the hard work of all the soldiers. How dare Long Feiyu and a yellow-mouthed kid take credit for it?"

As soon as these words came out, the court was stunned. I have never seen such a person throwing credit outside.Li Shimin snorted in dissatisfaction: "The two of them led an army of [-] to be defeated by Luo Yi's [-]. What is the merit?"

As soon as Li Shimin's words came out, the two lowered their heads in shame, which was even more embarrassing for Yu Chigong.Both of them are arrogant people, even though they knew that Li Shimin was just putting on a show to appease the public, but even so, they still couldn't get over their face.

Long Feiyu hurriedly said in panic: "Your Majesty is wrong, before we go out, the three of us discussed, Chief Yuchi and Master Changsun asked my ministers to lead an army of [-] to postpone, and the two of us personally led an army of [-] to attack Binzhou In order to lure Luo Yi's army into the urn, the eldest grandson did not hesitate to kneel down to get Luo Yi into the trap. This kneeling made Luo Yi's army feel arrogant, and made Luo Yi proud, and directly pursued him to the Jinghe River. Pingyuan, and thus won a complete victory. And the general manager Yuchi fought in and out of the enemy camp, entangled Luo Yi's elite army, and made the minister's army complete, so the greatest credit for this battle should be That's what the two adults get."

As soon as Long Feiyu finished speaking, the two looked at him in surprise.The surrounding ministers were even more arguing.Someone directly asked: "Then you [-] troops can't directly enter Binzhou? Why do you pretend to be defeated? Isn't this a joke with the lives of the soldiers?"

Long Feiyu glanced at the minister who spoke, and said, "My lord doesn't know something. Luo Yi has [-] cavalry in his hands. If we attack the city, it's fine for them to defend the city. At most, we will casualty some soldiers. But If Luo Yi couldn't bear to run away, how would the infantry intercept the running cavalry, and how many people would suffer if Luo Yi went north. And if he fled to Liang Shidu, the two of them would join forces, which would be very important to my Tang Dynasty. What a blow. After summing up, we came up with such a way to get the best of both worlds, leading Luo Yi's army into the woods, and the cavalry lost their speed and became fish on the board."

Hearing Long Feiyu's explanation, the minister let out an oh, expressing his agreement, while the rest of the people also cast their eyes on Changsun Wuji and Yu Chigong with half-belief.At this time, the two of them were already numb, and Long Feiyu wanted to give up such a big credit. Although they didn't care about this little credit, they lost face too much this time, and the benefit Long Feiyu threw over was theirs. irresistible.For a while, both of them were silent.

On the other side, Li Shimin said with a hearty smile: "Okay, the first contribution will be given to General Yuchi and the others, but the third contribution is you. Tell me, what reward do you want?"

Long Feiyu thought for a while, looked into Li Shimin's eyes and said, "Can any reward be acceptable?"

Li Shimin nodded sincerely, he sincerely wanted to thank the person who saved his son.Long Feiyu hummed and said, "I have lost my mother since I was a child, and almost lost my father..."

Hearing Long Feiyu's inexplicable words, everyone was discussing for a while, and Li Shimin also asked curiously: "Why did Long Aiqing tell me these things?"

Long Feiyu cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, what I want to say is that since the war, I have traveled from Xiazhou to Hexi, and from Hexi to Binzhou. The soldiers who have followed me so far are at least fifty or sixty thousand. Many of them fell On the way, many people lost their fathers, some lost their husbands, and some lost their sons because of this war. Some people even lost arms and legs. While the war brought us glory and wealth, it also left us with Bloody pain. And the war is over, those who made the war were punished, but how can the pain of these peacekeepers be healed? The children of the old people, the father of the son, the husband of the wife, they Falling down forever, unable to stand up again, what about the families of these people? And how will the disabled people spend the rest of their lives?"

Long Feiyu's words caused the originally happy court to sink to the bottom of the valley, and someone said angrily: "Long Feiyu, today is the day of celebration, what are you talking about?"

"Celebration, we are celebrating, but the credit is paid for by their lives. If the celebration is exchanged for other people's lives, then what is the difference?"

"In war, people always die. They die for the country, and they die well."

"Yes, what are you afraid of if a few people die, it is because of their death that the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty can be achieved."

Listening to the discussions of the ministers, Long Feiyu interjected: "Everyone is right, their deaths have brought about the stability and prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, so what should we do for those who died, so that we don't have to worry about it?" What about the stability and prosperity?"

In a word, everyone is stuck again, and no one has ever made a precedent in this regard.Suddenly someone said: "Please ask the eminent monk to save them."

"Absurd. If monks can transcend others, they don't need to eat fast and chant Buddha's name. They would have ascended to bliss long ago."

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work either, Long Feiyu, what do you think we should do?"

"It's very simple. For those who have served in the army for more than 30 years or the elderly over the age of 55, different amounts of money and food will be distributed according to the size of their merits. For those disabled soldiers, different amounts will be distributed every month according to the degree of disability. Pensions. For those soldiers who died in battle, in addition to being given different degrees of subsidies according to their merits, a medal card can be issued according to their merits, and their children can be given priority by virtue of this medal card. Build a martyr's cemetery to commemorate those heroes who died bravely for the Great Tang, and every year during the Qingming Festival, all the ministers must go to worship, as a model for the world, so as to encourage more people to become officials and serve our Great Tang."

As soon as Li Shimin finished speaking, someone stood up and said, "Little Huangkou, do you know how much food the country will consume for this item of expenditure alone? You really don't know how much firewood and rice are if you are not in charge."

Long Feiyu glanced at the minister, and said with a little disdain: "I don't know who you are?"

"The Minister of the Household."

"Then, can Master Shangshu tell the boy, how many Ding households are there in my Tang Dynasty?"

Hearing this sentence, Hubu Shangshu was taken aback, and suddenly stammered: "This... this is what the two servants should do, how do I know?"

Long Feiyu chuckled, and said intentionally or unintentionally: "You don't know, but Mr. Fang, Mr. Du, and Mr. Changsun all know that my Great Tang has 390 million Ding households and a population of 120 million. How many people are there in Turkic? Xue Yantuo has How many people, they add up to less than a million people, but it is these people who are less than a million people, their iron cavalry can hit the city of Chang'an, what is the ratio between us and them, twenty to one, simple In other words, twenty people beat one person. Could it be that our army is full of nothing? There is a saying that if you want a horse to run, you have to feed it. They taught their children since childhood. There are countless people here in the Han Dynasty. The treasures of the mountains and seas are endless, so those people regard this place as their nomadic pasture and wantonly plunder. As for ours, none of you sitting here can save enough for those wounded soldiers to live on. .”

The Minister of the Household Department was dissatisfied with being refuted by Long Feiyu: "It sounds nice, then why don't you take out your salary?"

Long Feiyu said with a chuckle: "Since Master Shangshu has such a glance, I can't show weakness." Long Feiyu said, bowed to Li Shimin and said: "Your Majesty, how many households in Shiyi can I get for the credit I get this time? "

"It can be promoted to the county magistrate of Kaiguo, and there are [-] households in Shiyi."

Long Feiyu cupped his hands and said to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, I would like to bring all the food towns of these [-] households into the national treasury and distribute them to these wounded soldiers. In addition, I have written a memorial of what I said and presented it to Your Majesty." " As Long Feiyu said, he took out the playbook from his pocket and held it in his hand. Li Shimin raised his head, Sanbao understood, and hurriedly walked from the hall to Long Feiyu, and carefully handed the playbook to Li Shimin .
