Chapter 26 A woman who looks like Changsun Wugui

Niu Junda looked at everyone with a embarrassed look and said disapprovingly: "Is Fang Zheng too sensational, right?"

Fang Xuanling said with a serious expression: "Now in Chang'an, who is the most powerful person?"

Qin Qiong said lightly: "That's all we need to say, the Guanzhong clan."

Everyone nodded and agreed.

Fang Xuanling looked at everyone with a serious look on his face and said, "This time, officials who were eliminated from Guanzhong clans have only one stop left for ten stops."

Everyone looked at each other.

Fang Xuanling said again: "Who is the hardest official in the court?

Niu Junda said: "Of course, he is the old minister of Yuan Cong of Taiyuan."

Fang Xuanling smiled bitterly and said, "Since Pei Ji, Xiao Yu, Chen Shuda, Yu Wenshi, the court is not guaranteed."

Xie Yingdeng whispered: "There are also relatives of the Li family, who were also demoted to the title this time."

Fang Xuanling smiled bitterly and said, "You all know that they are not stupid either... Now you are no longer robbers from Wagang, nor are you a subordinate of the Qin Palace, but a civil and military official of the Tang Dynasty. Fang Xuanling is no longer a military officer of the Qin Palace, the chief of the Tiance Palace, but a minister of the Tang Dynasty."

The more Fang Xuanling spoke, the more terrifying he became, and everyone's faces were gloomy.

Fang Xuanling continued: "Now that the Tang Dynasty has unified the world, the Qin Palace has become a passing cloud, but what about you, you are still running in the name of the Qin Palace and reaching the ears of His Majesty. What would he think? Do you don't want your glory and wealth? You still want to move your head?"

Everyone looked at each other in horror.

Fang Xuanling said solemnly: "The public is solemn, and he likes men to show things. A gentleman is proud but not competing, and a group but not a party!"

Qin Qiong bowed to Fang Xuanling and said, "Qin was taught!"

Fang Xuanling looked at the crowd's fearful and terrified look, and his tone slowly softened, and he said, "Of course, Your Majesty Xu Ruohuai Valley, you don't have to mind!"

Fang Xuanling winked at Lu, and Lu hurriedly called all the maids to start serving the dishes.

...

Li Jing slowly entered the Xiande Hall with bright armor. Li Jiancheng looked up and down very seriously.

Li Jing bowed and bowed to Li Jiancheng.

Li Jiancheng smiled and said, "After a few years, will the pharmacist come and be fine?"

Li Jing said: "Thank you for your blessing, Li Jing's old bone has not been thrown to the Turks to feed the wolf."

Li Jiancheng and Li Jing burst into laughter.

After a long time, Li Jiancheng invited Li Jing to sit down. The king and his subjects sat opposite each other.

Li Jiancheng said lightly: "Okay, let's talk about it less. Let's talk about the main topic. Over the past few days, I have been thinking that the Turks, a powerful enemy in the north, will never have a peaceful day in the border of the Tang Dynasty."

Li Jing nodded and said, "Your Majesty is wise! As the saying goes, how can you allow others to snore on the side of the bed? The Turks will not perish, and there will be no peace in the Tang Dynasty!"

Li Jiancheng waved his hand and said, "Don't say such flattery to me, I'm awkward to hear it."

Li Jing couldn't help but smile deeper.

Li Jiancheng pondered: "The Han Dynasty pacified the Huns, and experienced Gao, Hui, Wen, Jing, and four emperors. I have been sleeping on firewood and tasting gall for more than 60 years. I am afraid I can't wait that long. Like now, the Turks invaded every year and the imperial court prepared borders every year. When will it be a dead end? Some prime ministers hold marriage proposals, and I do not want to take it. The men of the Tang Dynasty are incompetent and women take on great responsibilities. There is no such reason. I want to hear your opinion on this matter!"

Li Jing bowed and said, "The war between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks is different from the war of unifying the world. Our Tang Dynasty is not to annex the land and to attract a wide range of population, but to fundamentally defeat and annihilate its powerful military forces and curb its ability to engage in large-scale wars. Although this is the purpose, if we do not pass a fundamental war, this strategic goal may not be easy to achieve."

Li Jiancheng nodded repeatedly, and he agreed with the Turks' views.

Although Chen Ying cooperated with the method of cooperating with the sickle and the Modao Army and the powerful crossbow soldiers, he could defeat the more with less and eliminate the Turks. However, there is a prerequisite, that is, the Turks are willing to fight against the Tang army. At present, the Turks are afraid of Chen Ying as if they hear Chen Ying's name and immediately retreat. It is easy for Chen Ying to defeat the Turks now, but it is too difficult to eliminate the Turks once and for all.

Li Jing said slowly: "What is finally the battle is the strength of both the enemy and us. I believe that the most important thing at the moment is to rectify the country's farming, increase grain reserves, and at the same time promote the horse politics to build a powerful cavalry corps that shock the entire universe and lay the foundation."

Li Jiancheng nodded and said, "Yes! Yes... Before the war begins, we must use the whole country to provoke the upper and lower levels and promote the fire. There are many Turkic tribes and internal disputes are endless. As long as the civil war continues, no one will be able to invade the south alone. As time goes by, our Tang Dynasty has become stronger and stronger, while the Turkic ones are getting weaker and weaker. When the time is ripe, just a disaster like Guanzhong this year can teach the eighteen Turkic tribes to fall into a difficult and desperate situation. At that time, the court sent a general and led tens of thousands of cavalry to the Great Wall, go deep into the enemy's territory, and attack Dingxiang from afar, and then the battle of Longcheng in the former Han Dynasty will reappear."

Li Jiancheng stood up and stared at Li Jing with bright eyes.

Li Jing quickly said: "Before this, I thought that I should judge the situation and first remove the nail Liang Shidu and include Xiazhou in the territory of the court. In this way, our iron cavalry advancing north of the Tang Dynasty will have a stable old camp."

Li Jiancheng nodded, clenched his fists several times, and finally let go. He turned around twice with his hands behind his back and said, "The Liang Shidu is no longer a problem. He only needs an imperial edict. The Qingzhou General Administration and the Lingzhou General Administration will attack each other from north to south. At most, it will take more than a month to capture the Liang Shidu to Chang'an City. However... within three years, the court... will not have any... agricultural taxes every year!"

Li Jing narrowed his eyes.

Li Jiancheng said: "Within three years, our Tang Dynasty has no ability to launch a large-scale military force against the Turks..."

Li Jing nodded silently and looked at Li Jiancheng who was extremely calm in surprise.

However, at this moment, Li Jiancheng said: "I want you to take over as the Minister of War, secretly take over as the Marshal of the North Conscript, and preside over the war to attack the Turks."

Li Jing said sternly: "Preparation is not difficult, but I must know what the purpose of this war is? Why fight? How much does it take to stop the troops?"

Li Jiancheng lowered his head and was silent for a while, then looked up and looked directly at Li Jing and said, "Destroy the country!"

Li Jing was solemn and cried to Li Jiancheng deeply: "I dare not serve you! But once it is a battle of tyranny, there are many soldiers and horses. The court has no income from agricultural tax for three years. What should I do to fight this battle?"

Li Jiancheng said: "The Western Regions Protectorate has secretly reserved 4.4 million stones of military rations and 320,000 horses. The three towns of Beiting, Kucha and Shule have a total of 6 armies and 62 Zhechong Prefectures, totaling 93,000 troops and horses!"

Li Jing shook his head and said, "This is not enough, far from enough!"

Li Jiancheng said: "The Andong Prefecture Yingzhou Town, Pinglu Town, Heishui Town, Bohai Town, and Raole Town have five towns and one army, forty-four Zhechong Prefectures, totaling 66,000 troops, 200,000 horses, and 2.8 million shi of military rations!"

Li Jing felt a storm in his heart.

He vaguely guessed Li Jiancheng's huge move. Guanzhong is currently suffering from a huge drought, which is an indisputable fact. The seventh year of Wude was destined to be a dead harvest. It is also unknown how the harvest in the Kaiyuan year after Li Jiancheng's founding year was now. The key is that Li Jiancheng actually prepared such a large amount of materials in such a short period of time, more than 6 million stones of military rations and more than 500,000 war horses.

Li Jiancheng then said: "Hedong General Administration, Hebei General Administration, Lingzhou General Administration, Liangzhou General Administration, and the Fourth General Administration and the Twelve Army, a total of 189% to the Chong Mansion, and 269,000 troops!"

Li Jing bowed and bowed to Li Jiancheng: "I will destroy his country!"

...

Chenjiabao and Chen Ying were dizzy when he looked at the reports coming from the Western Regions. Historically, Li Shimin used the Wei River Alliance and then spent four years resting and finally destroyed the Turks in one fell swoop.

However, in this time and space, because Li Jiancheng planned to deploy the Western Regions and Liaodong in advance, the Li Tang court's family's foundation was much richer than in history, especially the Andong Protectorate and the Western Regions Protectorate. The more than 6 million stones of grain and 500,000 war horses were not a small amount.

Of course, because of Chen Ying's problem of managing the Western Regions, the Tang Dynasty could recruit at least 100,000 vassals in the Western Regions to participate in this Northern Prefecture battle. Of course, it would be impossible to expect these vassals to fight tough battles, but once they were allowed to participate in the battle to wipe out the remnants, they would be more cruel than wolves.

Chen Ying played the role at this time as the General Administration of Logistics of the Western Route Army, which not only bears the logistics of the Western Regions army, but also has to bear the logistics of the Liangzhou army.

These work is not easy. When Chen Ying finished his work, it was already late at night. When Chen Ying dragged his tired body back to the dormitory, he saw that the lights were on in the dormitory.

Li Xiuning was sitting in front of the dressing table, embroidering the baby's clothes stitch by thread.

Chen Ying walked to Li Xiuning and touched Li Xiuning with his arm

Li Xiuning ignored Chen Ying and continued the needlework in her hands.

Chen Ying walked to the bed alone in depression and sat down, but found a pot of hot tea on the head of the bed.

Chen Ying glanced at Li Xiuning's back and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Chen Ying picked up the teapot straight and drank it bitterly.

Chen Ying walked to Li Xiuning again, sat down beside her, shook her body, and hit her again.

Li Xiuning took a breath, her delicate eyebrows immediately glared, and threatened to raise the needle in her hand.

Chen Ying laughed and symbolically hid, saying, "Sanniang, what's wrong? Why did I make you angry?"

Li Xiuning stared at Chen Ying and opened her mouth to say something, but looked at his pale face and tired expression, and gradually lost the momentum he had just now. Li Xiuning put down the needle and thread and said, "Give you a chance to explain, let me tell me!"

Chen Ying shrugged and grinned, "What did you say?"

Li Xiuning picked up the needle again and demonstrated at Chen Ying and said, "Stop being careless with me!"

Chen Ying said aggrievedly: "I really don't know, what do you want me to say?"

Chen Ying lay on the bed, closed his eyes and said, "You pierce, if you pierce, I can feel better, just pierce!"

Speaking of this, Li Xiuning looked at Chen Ying's tired face, felt soft and threw the needle down again.

Chen Ying lay on the bed and reached out to press his head with a headache.

Li Xiuning knelt behind him and massaged Chen Ying's temples.

Chen Ying's voice was a little hoarse and said, "I don't understand. You are talking about Guanyin maid. I really have nothing to do with her!"

If your heart is not in line with your heart, it will always be a woman's patent. Chen Ying also understands that Changsun Wugui was originally recommended to Chen Ying by Li Xiuning, but Chen Ying really didn't eat her.

Just a pure hug made Li Xiuning want to stab him with a needle. If he really did something, it would probably be a needle that Li Xiuning would not have been a needle, but a sword or a knife!

Li Xiuning suddenly looked at the outsider and said, "Yue'er!"

He Yue'er bowed and said, "What are the princess's instructions?"

Li Xiuning said: "I told the public that Changsun Wugui died suddenly, you can make arrangements!"

He Yue'er nodded and said, "I understand!"

Li Xiuning said solemnly: "Make a better job, send the body to the Pili Hall in Luoyang, and let the Changsun clan be buried by himself!"

He Yue'er turned around and left.

Chen Ying opened his eyes and looked at Li Xiuning in confusion and said, "What are you doing?"

Li Xiuning said: "She is dead. Now there is only one woman in our mansion who looks like Changsun Wugui!"

Chen Ying pointed at Li Xiuning and said, "You are hiding the bell and hiding yourself."
