The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

The two people next to him kept winking at Li Xiang, "The three of us talked passionately just now, why are you not willing to do it now?" King Wu followed these people back to the capital. This was the best solution. Even if Li Shimin wanted to deprive them of their credit, there would be no backup plan.

Li Shimin wanted to place all the credit on King Wu, but now King Wu has followed these people back to the capital. The war on the front line has not stopped yet. Could it be that ghosts are fighting? The people of Chang'an City were not fools. After a little guessing, they knew that this battle should be commanded by Li Xiang, so those who followed Li Xiang to fight would have both face and dignity.

"I'm like this now, so what if I disobey the imperial edict? Even if I disobey the imperial edict, do you think your imperial grandfather can kill me?"

King Wu Li Ke smiled, but what he said made sense. In this era, tiger poison was not allowed to eat its seeds. In history, Li Chengqian caused such outrageous things, and Li Shimin just exiled him. It was absolutely impossible for him to do so. Those who killed their own sons were, after all, their own descendants. The situation of King Wu Li Ke was far from that serious. It was just that one of Li Shimin's plans failed. If he killed his son to vent his anger, then it is estimated that Li Shimin's sons were not enough to kill. of.

"Then I will give you all the credit for this battle. These people under your command also lost their lives. We can't let them have nothing. Their family members will also be able to use it in the future."

Although Li Xiang didn't meet this third uncle often, he also knew that this third uncle was a person with character. Since he said this, he would definitely do this.

The King of Wu did not reject Li Xiang's statement. Li Xiang felt sorry for his soldiers, and Li Ke also felt sorry for his soldiers. These people tied their heads to their belts and followed their commander on the battlefield. If their lives are lost, if their family members cannot benefit from them, then it would be a great loss for them.

Niu Jinda and Su Dingfang looked at each other, and they felt relieved. If this matter could not be solved, even if they captured Xue Yantuo Khan, their soldiers might not forgive this matter. Who would They are not willing to do some useless work, even if they are the most elite troops.

"Then I'll let the rest of the people start preparations, but Third Uncle should write a letter to Grandfather. If you suddenly appear in the capital, it might still be..."

Li Xiang is familiar with Li Shimin's temperament. If he is vaccinated, this matter may not have much repercussions. However, if King Wu suddenly appears in the capital, Li Shimin may feel that this matter cannot be controlled. The king's punishment may be greater. In this matter, the uncle and nephew can be said to complement each other, so Li Shimin does not want King Wu to suffer too much.

"You all go down. You don't have to stay here anymore. Take good care of my wounded soldiers. I should also take them back to Chang'an. If it weren't for my mistake, maybe they would still be riding in battle at this moment. Right now, you don’t need to lie here like me.”

When King Wu said this, he felt a little depressed. Li Xiang knew that King Wu Li Ke was a good general in war, but this time he was blinded by victory. He wanted to surpass Li Xiang too much, so he showed up. deviation.

If they were not so eager, it would be easy to win. For example, when they first entered the grassland, Xue Yantuo's army was no match for them. They were commanded properly at that time. Unfortunately, they did not take this into account. If it continues, in the final analysis, the ability to deal with things is still a bit weak.

When they left the tent, Su Dingfang and Niu Jinda felt a little uncomfortable. Originally, they were afraid that His Highness King Wu would attack them. Who knew that His Highness King Wu was so upright in doing things, but it was us who acted like villains? The two of them didn't say a word just now. They were too embarrassed to say it in front of others.

"Your Highness, these brothers are also brothers of our Tang Dynasty. They also fight for the country on the battlefield. The imperial court does not give them much pension, otherwise it will come from our small treasury..."

The two of them found a deserted place, hoping that Li Xiang could shed some blood. Others didn't know how much money there was in the small treasury, but the two of them knew very well. Li Xiang always divided the money into two parts during the war.

One part is handed over to the court, and the other part is kept in your own hands, which is convenient when using money. Of course, this must be done secretly. No one except system soldiers can participate. , so as to ensure that it is not leaked.

"You two are so generous now. There was a lot of excitement just now. You are afraid that others will take your credit, so you just put your hearts in your stomach. It is not appropriate for us to take out this money now. If we take it out If they do, they should be suspected. Write down the identities and names of these people, and I will ask the person who holds the treasure to deliver the money to the door. It will be good for them not to show off by then. "

Looking at the two living treasures under his command, Li Xiang didn't know what to say. The two men were not bad at heart, but the city was a little shallow. They were majestic on the battlefield, but if they played these Machiavellian things, they would probably be killed. Others will be played to death.

The two of them smiled sheepishly, and then hurried down to do their business. There were quite a few people returning to Chang'an this time. Some of the Turkic prisoners of war alone numbered more than 8,000. There was no use if there were fewer people. Pull these people back. After that, he must have been killed by Li Shimin. Li Shimin's imperial edict made it very clear that the old, weak, sick and disabled should not be brought back to make up the numbers. They must be prisoners of war. Others thought that the people of Chang'an City had never seen the world.

This kind of thing has happened before. Many people regarded civilians as soldiers and directly took them back to receive merit. This happened not only in the Tang Dynasty, but also in the previous dynasties, so Li Shimin rewritten it in the imperial edict. Of course, it was not because he was afraid that Li Xiang would pull the civilians back.

The main reason is that Li Xiangtai is very good at using prisoners. He always feels that every prisoner is a labor force, so he can never just kill them. He should blow up the last bit of value in them. But beheading the prisoners in front of the people, This is also a way to motivate people. Although it lags a little behind, the cohesion it receives is unmatched by other methods.
