Zhenguan Leisurely King

Chapter 140
Some of you sitting here nodded their heads and discussed with each other, but some shook their heads and sighed.

Du Ruhui said: "Boy, do you know that there was a similar plan in the Han Dynasty before. The court had a better relationship with the Huns, but in the end the Huns still betrayed the Great Khan Dynasty. How can we prevent them from betraying us?"

"It's very simple, regard the Turkic people who are pro-Tang people as my Tang people, we should not look at those Turkic people with colored glasses, and don't distinguish between Tang people and Turkic people, because as long as they are willing, they will be the people of my Tang Dynasty. .”

"That's it?" Du Ruhui asked suspiciously.

Wang Pingan glanced at Du Ruhui and said: "Of course it's not just these things. If you want to seek protection from the Tang Dynasty, the imperial court must send troops to protect them, and also send them doctors, teachers, and even cattle and sheep for them to raise." , and then send merchants to trade with them.”

"It's easy to send troops, but if the sent troops are stationed on the grassland, what will happen to their supplies? You know that, kid." Li Jing, who was sitting on the left side of Wang Ping'an, said.

Wang Ping'an said: "Returning to General Li, you are a general in the army. When it comes to marching and deploying, there are not many people here who can be your opponents. You should know better than the kid how many ways the soldiers' supplies are mainly obtained. That's right." Wang Pingan kicked the ball to Li Jing again.

Li Jing was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that Wang Ping'an would join his army instead, he smiled wryly, because he also knew that the army's supply mainly depended on the imperial court, and if the imperial court's supplies were gone, they could only rely on robbing.

Seeing that Li Jing didn't continue to ask, Wang Pingan smiled slightly and said, "General Li must be thinking that the supply is not distributed by the court, so he can only grab it by himself, right?"

Li Jing was stunned again, and asked, "How do you know?"

Wang Pingan said: "Because Turkic is so big, even if our army is stationed there, we will have to give up the newly occupied land due to logistical problems."

Li Jing said excitedly: "That's right, it's because of this reason, do you have a solution?"

"Yes." Wang Pingan said lightly.

Li Jing glanced at Wang Ping'an, and his breathing began to become short of breath. He took a step forward, grabbed Wang Ping'an's arms and said, "You know, once you say this, if you can't do it, I can use military law to punish you."

"General Li, can you let go of the hands that are holding the boy first, it hurts!" Wang Pingan seemed to hear two cracking sounds, and both arms had lost consciousness.

Cheng Yaojin stood up with a dark face, and scolded: "Li Jing, let go of my nephew Ping An.".When he came up, he pushed Li Jing away with a palm.

Wang Ping'an sat on the ground limply with his feet disobedient, and his arms temporarily lost feeling and could not use his strength.Cheng Yaojin tore off the clothes on Wang Ping'an's two arms and began to check.

He let out a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, Lao Li has a sense of propriety, otherwise your arm will have to be crippled." After speaking, he reported Wang Pingan to his seat and sat down.

Wang Pingan smiled bitterly and said, "My nephew is fine. Uncle doesn't need to worry. It's just that his arm hurts badly and he can't use his strength. He will be fine after a short rest. General Li is also too excited. Please don't blame him."

Li Jing said: "I apologize for what happened just now, but if you don't tell me how to solve the logistics problem where the army is far away from the country, the old man will still say that, and deal with it according to military law."

Cheng Yaojin stood up, and said with a dark face: "Military punishment? Let's not say that my nephew Ping'an is not a soldier. Even if he is a soldier, he has not made a mistake, so you can't use military punishment at will."

"Old man, now we are talking about military affairs, not the time for you to talk about the relationship between children." Li Jing said dissatisfied.

"fart……"

"Enough, two generals, now is not the time to quarrel, let's listen to Wang Ping'an's solution first." Li Chengqian said angrily.

"Yes."

Cheng Yaojin and Li Jing retreated at the same time, they looked behind the wall intentionally or unintentionally.

Wang Pingan caught the eyes of the two, and thought: "There is indeed someone behind, it seems that it is Comrade Li Er, the current saint."

Changsun Wuji showed a slight smile and said, "Wang Ping'an, I ask you why the method you mentioned just now was not written into the plan?"

Wang Pingan looked at the harmless smile on Changsun Wuji's face, and it still made people feel a little bit like a spring breeze, but he knew that it was all a lie, and he couldn't be fooled.

So he said: "Returning to Mr. Changsun, the method is actually very simple. You just need to build your own logistics base at the base where the soldiers are stationed."

"Logistics base? Unheard of, tell me."

Wang Pingan clenched his fists and found that he was a little conscious. He said with a little excitement: "There are basically two types of logistics bases. One is to grow the food and poultry that you need. The other is to breed or grow some local Special products, and then trade with caravans, sell the planted or cultivated items to Datang’s caravans, whether it’s selling silver or exchanging the items you need, this can solve the logistical problem.”

"Doesn't this require a lot of manpower and material resources? I think this method won't work." Wei Zheng stood up and said.

Wang Pingan said: "Wait, His Royal Highness, gentlemen and generals, let me explain first that everything in the boy's plan can only be implemented after defeating the Turkic Khan, not now, no matter how much is said now, it is just talk on paper." .”

"Of course, what we are discussing now is the control of the Turks after our Great Tang defeats the Turks." Li Chengqian said.

Wang Pingan expressed doubts and said: "That kid is curious. After defeating the Turks, there must be prisoners. I wonder how the court dealt with them?"

Wei Zheng said: "Since they have already surrendered, of course we should let them go back. This can reflect the great power of the Tang Dynasty and publicize His Majesty's benevolence and righteousness. Besides, the Tang Dynasty has no extra food for them to eat and drink."

"Waste, it's too wasteful, how can you waste it like this? You put such good manpower back for nothing, ouch, why is my heart hurting so much, it hurts to death." Wang Pingan said that you are a prodigal son , I feel sorry for Lao Tzu's behavior.

"You..." Wei Zheng was so angry at Wang Ping'an's words and actions that he was speechless.

"Pfft!!!!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

The few ministers around who watched accidentally laughed out, especially those who had memorized Wei Zheng's book before, and laughed even louder. It is rare to see Wei Zheng make a fool of himself, especially the yellow-mouthed child pointing his nose Speaking of a prodigal, that is even rarer in a hundred years.Who doesn't know that Wei Zheng is notoriously clean and honest.

Wang Ping heard from the laughter that one of the voices came from behind the wall, and now he is even more sure that Li Er is in the Prince's Mansion, watching his performance.

Wei Zheng was ashamed of being scolded by Wang Ping'an pointing at his nose. He took a few deep breaths and tried his best to suppress his anger. If you don't say something about morality and peace, if you don't say something, be careful, this old man will ask His Majesty to take away your title of child prodigy."

When Wang Pingan heard Wei Zhengyue's words, his tone became heavier, and he sighed helplessly: "Master Wei, I want to ask, if we win the Turks, how many prisoners of war can we capture?"

"It's hard to say. Under normal circumstances, there is no problem with [-] to [-]?"

"Then, I would like to ask Mr. Wei, how much manpower is wasted every year when Datang builds roads and roads, and how much national labor is wasted if these manpower is converted into money?"

"It's about 20 guan per year." Wei Zheng seemed to have thought of something, and had lost the momentum just now.
