The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

"Your Majesty, this matter cannot be compared with the past. It is impossible for what happened back then to happen now. Once the army goes out, it will be tens of thousands of troops. If there is no logistical supplies, it will be an unimaginable thing. Please Your Majesty, think twice.”

Tang Jian, the Minister of Household Affairs, said in horror that although what Li Xiang said might happen, it might not happen. If it didn't happen, it would be a huge change for the entire Tang Dynasty, and it could even shake the entire Tang Dynasty. foundation.

"Your Majesty, please think twice. The nomadic peoples in the north are still not satisfied. If we, the Tang Dynasty, make mistakes on the Tuyuhun border, they will definitely come back. By then, our country, the Tang Dynasty, will be under attack from both sides."

Civil servants kept coming forward to complain. In the eyes of these people, what Li Xiang said was actually opportunism. How do you know that we can win every battle?

What's more, the situation in Tuyuhun is different from that of the northern prairie. The altitude there is relatively high. If we are not careful, we may even lose everything. The current situation of Datang is hard-won. How can we rely on it? How can a child take action after just two sentences?

"Your Majesty, please think twice."

All the civil servants went into battle, and in the end they all knelt down in front of Li Shimin.

Although the military generals support taking action, they dare not say that they will definitely win. Even when General Li Jing conquered the Turks in the north, it was a matter of narrow escape. Now that he has won, it feels easier. But for General Li Jing at that time, that was It was also a dangerous journey.

"Father, this matter needs to be considered in the long term, and we must not jump to conclusions lightly."

Li Tai saw the opportunity and quickly stood in front of the civil servants, as if he was leading them.

"We, the Tang Dynasty, are the celestial dynasties. To make the Tang Dynasty surrender to a mere 20,000 people from a country like Tuyuhun dogs is really an insult to the reputation of the Tang Dynasty. Moreover, we must not make peace with each other at this moment. If an opening is made, even if we, the Tang Dynasty have One hundred princesses are not enough."

Li Xiang saw that Li Shimin's thoughts were a little shaken and hurriedly stood up from the queue. He could no longer be as calm as before. Once Li Shimin confirmed the marriage policy, it would affect the Tang Dynasty for the next two hundred years.

"You are simply being alarmist. You are not familiar with the surrounding situation at all, nor are you familiar with the actual situation of the Tang Dynasty. You only know how to talk nonsense in the court. If you have the ability, you can lead your own troops to Tuyuhun. Can you defeat it? ?”

Li Tai still remembers that Li Xiang rejected his marriage plan.

"I don't dare to say whether I can defeat it, but as long as I have breath, I can't let my aunts and sisters go to get married. Men should strengthen themselves. The peace bought by women will be cursed in the history books and said that our Li family The men of the Tang Dynasty should be like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and no one dares to disobey the soldiers of heaven."

After Li Xiang finished speaking, there was silence in the court. You must know that Li Xiang is just a child, how could he have such an awareness?

When Li Xiang spoke, he secretly looked at Li Shimin. He knew what kind of words to use to stimulate Li Shimin. Li Shimin was an emperor through the ages and would never let himself get any notoriety in history, even if there was any. , they would try their best to cover it up. When Li Xiang said this, Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji knew that this battle was inevitable.

"That's right. This is the good son of my Li family. I have decreed that anyone in the Tang Dynasty who dares to make an unreasonable marriage in the future will be killed!"

In fact, Li Shimin was not willing to adopt the policy of peace, but the lack of national power could only be used as a last resort. Now that Li Xiang has said all these things, if Li Shimin still does not express his position, it will inevitably be infamy in history.

In the eyes of the ruler, if you want to ensure the safety of the empire, it is okay to sacrifice one or two women. Li Xiang also knows that Li Shimin said these words because he was forced by him, but Li Xiang does not care about the reason for these words. As long as you have said it, there will be no more peace between the Tang Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty.

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

Although many people present felt that His Majesty was being taken advantage of by Li Xiang, there was a good custom in the Tang Dynasty court, that is, when Li Shimin decided on something, no matter what they thought in their hearts, they would act honestly Really do what Li Shimin wants.

Li Tai and other princes' eyes were almost filled with fire. Li Xiang's suggestions in the court were immediately implemented. What does this mean? What it means is that Li Xiang has been able to influence the policies and policies of the entire empire. If it continues like this, how can people like them have a voice?

The most important thing is the thoughts of the courtiers. Once they feel that Li Xiang can determine the direction of the empire, then these people will unnaturally get closer to him. If the princes want to stir up trouble again, they may not have such a chance.

"Regarding Tuyuhun, we must fight. No matter what difficulties we face, we must fight. Starting today, we will reduce expenditures inside and outside the palace. The Ministry of Revenue and the Internal Affairs Office will raise funds at the same time. We must collect two million dollars in military expenses."

At this moment, Li Xiang knew why Li Shimin was called a great talent. In addition to his brains, his courage was unmatched by others. There were only two million yuan in the national treasury, and Li Shimin dared to spend it all. Such courage was not something ordinary people could have. of.

Of course, Li Xiang knew that this was also related to Tuyuhun's consistent trouble-making. In the past few years, Tuyuhun had been quite disrespectful to the Tang Dynasty. Li Shimin couldn't bear it for a long time, and now it finally broke out.

"Uncle Qin, Baocheng knows integrity, you two are one master and the other..."

Li Shimin did not use General Li Jing, firstly because General Li Jing's contribution was too high, and secondly because someone had to guard the capital, so he made Qin Qiong the commander-in-chief and Cheng Yaojin the deputy commander-in-chief, and sent 30,000 troops to reinforce Liang. The state, coupled with the more than 30,000 garrison troops in the four local cities, as long as there is enough money, they can definitely make Tuyuhun admit defeat.

"I want to send a member of the royal family to accompany the army. Do you have any ideas?"

"My grandson is willing to go..."

As soon as Li Shimin finished speaking, the other sons' eyes dodged. No one wanted to go to the front line to eat sand, but Li Xiang stood up immediately. Are you fools still hiding?

Don’t you know how rare this opportunity is?

There are very few opportunities for princes and grandsons to lead troops on expeditions. With such experience in leading troops, there will be a greater chance of becoming emperor in the future. With your brains, you can’t even figure this out. Why should you be with us in the future? fight?

"My son is also willing to go..."

Is there someone else?
