Prosperous Tang special forces

Chapter 65
Li Shimin looked at Long Feiyu's memorial carefully, glanced at Long Feiyu with some astonishment, and said to the ministers: "Everyone, take a look at Long Aiqing's memorial, and let me tell you about what he played. Stop it."

Sanbao gave the memorial to a group of ministers, and after it was circulated, they began to talk about it.

And the harem, where Li Yuan stayed.Li Yuan shouted impatiently to the eunuch beside him: "What's the matter, I asked you to go several times, why hasn't this man come?"

The eunuch said a little aggrieved: "Your Majesty, the slave has gone several times. Your Majesty is in court, so we can't get close."

Hearing the court meeting, Empress Changsun wondered: "Why did the court meeting take so long today? Is there something wrong?"

The eunuch nodded and said: "Originally, His Majesty planned to retire after rewarding the meritorious men, but Marshal Long suddenly took out a memorial, and now His Majesty is asking the ministers to discuss this memorial."

"What is the memorandum that you let the officials discuss?" Li Yuan looked at the eunuch with some doubts.

Facing Li Yuan's puzzled eyes, the eunuch hurriedly said, "I don't know much about it. I just heard that His Majesty was promoted to Marshal Long as the county magistrate. Return it to the treasury."

"What the hell is it? It's been discussed to such an extent?"

Hearing the question from Empress Changsun, the eunuch turned his head to Empress Changsun and said, "It is said that Marshal Long has calculated a table of the number of soldiers and deaths in the Tang Dynasty every year in recent years. I hope His Majesty will issue a law to compensate those who sacrificed their lives for the country. Heroic spirit. But this expenditure will reach several 10 taels per year. So His Majesty asked the ministers to discuss whether this new law proposed by Marshal Long should be implemented."

Empress Changsun frowned and said: "My Tang Dynasty has just experienced a few disasters, and the treasury is scarce, where is the gold and silver to subsidize these heroic spirits? It is really inappropriate to mention this matter at this time."

The eunuch nodded and said: "Master Fang and the others think the same way, thinking that this matter can be postponed for a while. But Marshal Long said that if you want the soldiers to fight the enemy fearlessly and bravely, you must let them have no scruples. There is something in the heart, go forward It is bound to be blocked, and the current enemies of my Tang Dynasty are the Turks from the northern grasslands and the soldiers and horses of Liang Shidu. If we want to eliminate these enemies as soon as possible, we must build a strong iron shoe to fight against them, and solving these problems morale is the most important The most important thing is that if His Majesty wants to avenge his shame, he must let the soldiers see the hope of following, so this matter is urgent now."

After a little hesitation, Empress Changsun understood the meaning, and hurriedly said, "Then, have they reached a conclusion now?"

"The generals and Lord Fang Du have already agreed, but the ministers are still discussing, and His Majesty has not made a statement yet. There is currently a heated debate, and the court will not be over for a while."

Li Yuan sighed, waved his hands and said, "It's okay, let the kitchen prepare meals."

The eunuch responded and went down. Li Yuan looked at Long Liang with a smile and said, "Brother Long has given birth to a good son, how about we wait for him to come and have dinner together?"

Long Liang panicked and said: "The Supreme Emperor is really a shameful old minister."

Li Yuan laughed loudly and said, "I won't give you this kind of face, I will keep you for your son's sake." Li Yuan said, looking at Long Liang's teasing expression, hehe laughed Said: "Just kidding, no matter how good a son is, he is educated by his father."

Long Liang smiled unnaturally. He didn't know why his son was so powerful. Since he had a high fever last time, his mind, which was originally dazed, became sober. It had to be said that it was a miracle.

In the main hall, the debate among a group of people has become heated.Someone said mercilessly: "Long Feiyu, you don't know what you have won just because you have won a few battles. Now that the national treasury is empty, if you waste money on it, what will we do if a disaster happens?"

Long Feiyu also pointedly said: "You are probably used to living a rich life, and you have never experienced how the poor live. You should know exactly how much money there is in the treasury. 10,000+ taels Silver can be exchanged for hundreds of thousands of troops, why are you still so picky, don’t you think that the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty don’t even deserve this little silver?”

These ministers dare not answer Long Feiyu's words. Everyone knows that once they answer, they will be hated by the soldiers of the entire Tang Dynasty.For a while, there was no better excuse to prevaricate Long Feiyu.

Although Long Feiyu knew what these ministers were doing, his purpose at this time was only to solve the worries for the Tang army. After living in the future world for so long, as a special soldier, he was mixed with all kinds of people all day long , why don't you know that the king of Hades is easy, and the little devil is hard to deal with.

Seeing that the smell of gunpowder in Long Feiyu's words was getting stronger and stronger, Li Shimin said in a timely manner: "My dear friends, the country of my Tang Dynasty was also bought by these soldiers with their lives. In the past, we ignored the existence of these people. But it is precisely because of the existence of these people that my Tang Tiejun can never defeat the enemy in foreign wars. Their scruples about what happens behind them has seriously affected the marching operations. Now that Long Aiqing has discovered this matter, we should solve it as soon as possible. Yes. Xuanling, you and Keming come up with a plan as soon as possible, and submit it to me."

"Yes."

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui bowed their hands and said yes, and retreated.But the Hubu Shangshu who had been against Long Feiyu just now said at this time: "Your Majesty, it is really not easy to discuss this matter at this time. There is not so much silver in the treasury for use. Why don't you wait for three to five years?" It’s not too late to implement.”

This time Long Feiyu did not speak, but Fang Xuanling said with some concern: "The Turkic civil war has no time to go south. This is the best chance for us to take down Liang Shidu, but the war needs a lot. With the current state treasury The ability can at most support the current expenditure, and save the expenditure to win the Liangshidu, but if this fund is given to the wounded soldiers, it may be insufficient, and the best opportunity for combat will be delayed."

As soon as Fang Xuanling's words came out, he immediately gave the Minister of the Household Department an excuse, and Master Liu, the servant of the Ministry of Officials, interjected in a timely manner: "Yes, Liang Shidu is the big deal. Those people are dead and disabled. After a war, it is really not worth spending so much silver for them."

If you want to say that the Minister of the Ministry of Households considers the matter for self-interest and the country, then the Minister of the Ministry of Officials is purely opposing it.When Long Feiyu heard the words of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, he said angrily: "Master Liu is very nice. If you broke a leg because of Datang, how would your majesty feel about ignoring you? How do you feel?"

Long Feiyu's rhetorical question left Lord Liu speechless.If he broke his leg, Li Shimin had nothing to say, then not only would he be chilled, but all the officials would also be chilled.

After listening to Long Feiyu's words, some of those who originally opposed remained silent, while others began to agree.Suddenly the voice of discussion reappeared, Master Liu, who saw this scene and was unwilling to be forgotten, suddenly said: "Then how can it be the same, how can I compare with them. Their status is humble, since they are disabled, they have lost their value. Why should we bother?" I wasted these taels of silver for them. Besides, I have been following His Majesty's saddle and horse, how can you father and son, who followed the remnants of the former crown prince and committed rebellion, can be compared to the rebels."

As soon as Mr. Liu finished speaking, he suddenly felt his eyes go dark, and he fell to the ground, and there was an exclamation from around.And he himself fell to the ground gorgeously, with his whole face stuck to the ground, staring at his eyes, and the minister shouted in his ears: "Long Feiyu, what are you doing? How dare you beat me up in the hall?" An important minister of the court."

The man yelled violently, waking up the group of people who were still in a daze.Someone hurriedly went over to help Mr. Liu up from the ground, but at this moment, half of Mr. Liu's face was swollen, and the whole half of his face was covered with bruises. Mr. Liu covered the numb half of his face, and spit out a mouthful of dirty blood from his mouth, bringing out A few teeth.Half of his face was still slowly swollen. If it wasn't for the reminder from others, he wouldn't have known that it was the boy not far away who hit him just now.

The people who reacted wisely distanced themselves from Long Feiyu, and bowed down to Li Shimin with righteous indignation: "Your Majesty, Long Feiyu is perverted and domineering, openly beating ministers who disagree with him in the hall, such disregard People of law and discipline must not stay in the court hall."

At this time, not only the ministers complained, but even Changsun Wuji and others who had a good relationship with Long Feiyu looked at Long Feiyu with unkind eyes. Then those ministers began to denounce him.

Li Shimin also said angrily at this time: "Long Feiyu, if you don't give me a reasonable explanation, I will never forgive you lightly."

Long Feiyu cupped his hands to Li Shimin, and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, the government and the public know that our father and son are the former prince's party. This is undeniable. But Master Liu keeps saying that our father and son are rebels and the former prince is a remnant. The minister disagrees."

"I don't agree, Long Feiyu, can you give me a better explanation?" When Li Jiancheng was involved, Li Shimin stared at Long Feiyu angrily.

Long Feiyu stared at Li Shimin fearlessly and said, "I thought that the former prince was your elder brother, and King Zhao was your younger brother, and they were all compatriots. Although the former prince made a big mistake, how could he It is also your elder brother, Your Majesty. The elder brother is the father, and the son does not say anything about the father's fault. As a younger brother, no matter how bad the relationship between your Majesty and the former prince is, it is still a family. Yet Master Liu dares to call the former prince a remnant, and the prince is your majesty's elder brother. , Then where does Lord Liu put His Majesty? Just now, I was angry and punched Lord Liu as a last resort for the sake of the royal majesty, to prevent him from saying anything rebellious."

Li Shimin stared at Long Feiyu with piercing eyes, his face full of disbelief.The ministers also looked suspicious, everyone could see that Long Feiyu acted after hearing Mr. Liu belittle those soldiers, but at this time Long Feiyu came up with such a great excuse.Over there, Master Liu hurriedly knelt down on the ground after hearing this, kowtowed to Li Shimin and said: "Your Majesty, I have been indiscriminate in my words for a while, and my nature was taught by Lord Long. I know I was wrong. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

Li Shimin snorted, and said with a little majesty: "Long Aiqing's words are correct, but Jiancheng is my elder brother. Although there is a fault, the dead will be the first. You insulted my elder brother like this, I should have brought you down for questioning. But because you made an unintentional mistake, you have already been punished, and I will not pursue it any longer, and you will be fined for one year's salary, so you can step down."

Lord Liu hurriedly kowtowed in panic, "Your Majesty is grateful for not killing you." Then he got up from the ground, covered his face and stood among the ministers, and Long Feiyu's explanation made all the ministers stand in awe. There is no way to interject.

However, Li Shimin did not intend to let Long Feiyu go. He stared at Long Feiyu with a pair of eyes that penetrated the world. It is an indisputable fact that you beat people with your own hands. I will take back your position as marshal, deprive you of the power of general, and send you to Wuyuan as a prefect."

Hearing the release of Wuyuan, Mr. Liu's eyes suddenly flashed, and he stared at Long Feiyu with a little resentment.I hope it is best for him to die here.

When Fang Xuanling and others heard that Wuyuan was looking at each other, Fang Xuanling said in a timely manner: "Your Majesty, except for Jiuyuan, the county seat, the rest of Wuyuan is occupied by Liang Shidu and Turkic people. Where is it?" Soldiers can only communicate with the imperial court intermittently. Our military rations will never reach Jiuyuan, and they will be robbed by Turkic people. It is no different from an enclave. But now the Turkic people regard General Long as their life and death enemy. If there is no return, please think twice, Your Majesty."
