Four hundred and ninth chapters endless (three)
Chapter 409: Unexpected (3)
I had a lot of tickets yesterday, and I wanted to take a breath. Thank you everyone. Today, I will continue to pay the return for the fourth update. This is the first update.
==============
This time, the specifications of the Laojun army are very high.
Who is Li Shoucheng? Most of the people don’t know, but all officials know that he is the number one eunuch around Wu Zetian, and even more so that he knows his weight. If the newly moved King Li Xian of the British, if he does not fight for the throne, he will not have much real power, but his status is still very noble.
It is hard to say what is below, and the ministers will automatically avoid it, including the little princess, the princess and the prince's concubines.
What did these women go to Qinghai to do?
Some ministers have also woken up and looked at the East Palace and saw how thin it is. Moreover, the prince is not able to come back in a day or two. He is a human being, and he always needs that... The prince cannot be like those soldiers, just hugging Hu Ji to relieve his boredom. Everyone understands it.
Although he had violated the etiquette slightly, considered the prince, and considered the hardships he had suffered in the past six months, the ministers did not say a word.
But in this way, the entire Laojun team has been quite high in specifications.
Even without considering materials, a large number of guards are needed to protect the safety of the group.
In the harem, Wu Zetian said to Li Xian: "Xian'er, come here."
He didn't have much affection for this mother. In short, Wu Zetian was successful in being the queen, but as a mother, she was a real failure. Except for Li Lingyue, who was particularly favored by her, almost no one was satisfied with her.
But I dare not reveal it, the Cui brothers repeatedly hinted. Take a look, your second brother is very skillful, but how about you meet your mother?
Walking over honestly, Wu Zetian asked, "Why are you wearing this red cloak?"
There are also children in Chang'an who wear red cloaks, but they used to be nothing, but now they have become popular.
This is a very open and inclusive country. There is no word fashion, but this meaning is now available. Seeing that woman dressed up well and learned together, Wu Zetian's eight-character eyebrows were painted with special eyebrows, but in that case, people learned to draw eight-character eyebrows. There are even novel makeup, with the faces that are matte, or the eyebrows are scribbled, and the novelty and boldness will make future generations shocked.
The playboys also dressed up, wearing colorful robes, carrying bows and arrows, wearing horizontal swords, and riding angry horses. They crossed the city on the streets every day. The 30,000 red waves in Qinghai were sent back to the capital, so these playboys also learned together. In April and May, Chang'an, the red cloaks were all over the streets.
As a result, a few months later, when Wulu heard the news, he was so happy that he almost got angry.
“Everything is in the department.”
"That's because they are learning your elder brother's appearance, but learning your elder brother's appearance is not enough to wear, and they also have to learn your elder brother's character."
"Yes, Mother Queen." This sentence is very impressive.
"How is Cui in your mansion?"
"Very good," it can be distinguished from good or bad. It turns out that Zhao's family is also good, but they are a bit arrogant. The Cui family's daughter is gentle and virtuous, very much like several sisters-in-law in the East Palace, and she is also beautiful. Almost all of them make him forget all the things about Zhao's family back then.
"Do you know what this palace is doing now?"
"Know."
"Also, when you come to Qinghai, you can't mess around. Although your elder brother spoils you, he is very strict in governing the army."
"Yes." Li Xian smiled.
The Cui brothers thought a lot, but his idea was very simple. They also thought about the throne, but the two brothers above were too strong, and the elder brother was far inferior to the talent. The second brother was far inferior to the skills. It would be better to be a prince, without using his brain or facing those sour and smelly scholars all day long.
After retiring from the qualification to fight for the throne, a faint loss soon disappeared. It would be better to see the elder brother, good brother, have you seen that? My second brother treated him like this and gave him a horse. Besides, he also wanted to see the actual war scene.
"Then go, be careful on the way."
"yes."
A large group of people left Chang'an City with a large amount of supplies.
...
Li Wei and Pei Xingjian are fighting puzzles, and there are not many generals who can understand them all.
Xue Ne asked, "So what are your plans?"
"Everything is ready, only the east wind is needed, I will wait for one person to arrive."
"Yes, this person must come," Pei Xingjian smiled with satisfaction again.
"That person... is..." Xue Ne finally reacted.
Li Wei made a shut-up gesture and was also watching the reactions of the generals. Xue Na was not bad. After he was in a desperate situation, the battle was very fierce, especially after spring, he shot many Tubo soldiers to death with a bow. But he could not be the commander of the army, which means that he is still a general, not a commander.
I don’t know where his fame in history and storytelling comes from. Could this person be a slow-tempered general?
But the generals still disappointed him. In terms of generals, there are not too many in the Qinghai army. When the two fight, Xue Ne is probably not Xin Chengsi's opponent, but he can only be one general, but he can't lead the army. For example, Xi Fenglei is also a brave general. Don't think that he is small and really on the battlefield, that is fierce. On the contrary, he found that Zhang Qianxu and Luo Wuzheng are really good, and their growth is no less than that of Qi Biming.
This shows that the empire is still talented, and the left-behind generals and Wang Fangyi are all good generals.
Until this time, he was already planning to ascend the throne. Speaking of which, no one believed it. There was only one position in the emperor, and that was so easy to get. So Li Xian had a good qualification, but he was always impatient. This frivolousness hindered his wisdom.
As an emperor, you have to hire people. Hao Chujun and the others are good, but they are old and can't live long. Then they have to choose other important officials to take the burden. Di Renjie is not good, and his qualifications are still relatively low. It is more appropriate, such as the minister or the minister of the Nine Temples, and the prime minister is not allowed for the time being.
The army also needs generals. Xue Rengui and Liu Rengui are all old and have to choose a group of generals to take over. Most of these will come from the Qinghai army. Li Wei understands them and is a confidant of the direct descendants, so he can use them with confidence. Without Pei Xingjian's vision of knowing people, he has to take these opportunities to observe them one by one.
So sometimes I think a lot about it, and what ministers in the court are suitable for continuing to support the pillars of the empire?
At first, Pei Xingjian didn't expect that when he saw Li Wei's eyes scanning one by one, he suddenly understood. His forehead was smiling, it was good, and he felt happier.
He said slowly: "There are many ways to war. Su Qin and Zhang Yi opened their mouths, which made the seven countries turmoil. May I ask you, how many soldiers did they bring in apart from two mouths, and how many battles did they fight? This is the attack of the diplomatic relations. Emperor Gaozu of Han was besieged by the Huns, and Chen Ping only used one strategy. The siege of the Huns was lifted, and Emperor Gaozu of Han and the Han elites were preserved. May I ask you, how many soldiers did Chen Ping use in this plan and what battles did he fight? Siege cities and plunder land is the most important method. Some people blame Li Xianggong, but in fact, it was not that he was used by Lun Qinling. Yuan was defeated in strategy."
Say it very calmly.
In fact, it is also a kind of training for each general.
However, Li Wei was able to escape this time, which is also amazing.
"Look at it. Although Mr. Pei has few soldiers in his retreat, the land of Hehuang has become a wall of iron. On the other hand, Tubo and Tuyuhun are not bad. The city was built by us and the fort was built by us. We gave it up. Should we send troops to defend? There are fewer left-behind soldiers and cannot defend them. There are many left-behind soldiers, neither Tubo nor Tuyuhun can bear this pressure. Opportunity, have you not seen many opportunities?"
More people reacted and had not guessed all of Li Wei's thoughts, but there was a light in their minds.
"Besides, the Lun brothers are only heroes of the Tubo generals. However, this time, they spent countless money and did not kill the lonely man. What kind of pressure would there be in China? Although they have martial arts, don't forget the great arguments about Lun Qinling or Tubo, and they have to bear government affairs. Only when they are both internal and external."
This statement has more loopholes in Tubo. Of course, Lun Qinling will definitely do some remedies, but the huge difference in national strength. Don’t talk about Lun Qinling, even if his grandson is alive, he cannot make up for such loopholes. Li Wei was not in a hurry. With Pei Xingjian’s help, he just kept his foot on his feet. Moreover, although the troops were small, after so many battles, the combat effectiveness he has now been exerted by 80,000 troops is not weaker than the original 180,000 troops.
It is okay to not seek merit, but whether there are any mistakes or not.
"That's it, let's go."
The generals left excitedly, not fighting now, but knew that the prince would fight a lot and would bite a big fight in Tubo.
Walking out with Pei Xingjian, Pei Xingjian asked, "Your Highness, when are you planning to return to the capital?"
"Pei Qing, what do you think?"
Pei Xingjian hesitated for a moment and said, "I feel it's not good to go back for the time being."
I didn't dare to say it clearly that you were still a prince when you went back, but instead went back with great achievements. The emperor was uneasy and suspicious, which easily allowed villains to take the opportunity to enter. I saw the role of going to Qinghai at the beginning, but I was just worried.
But now it is not necessary. It is difficult for Tubo to launch another major battle unless the Tang army itself reveals a huge loophole that can make Lunqinling completely wipe out in one fell swoop. That is impossible, but Qinghai has become the best safe haven for the prince.
"That's right, the heroes have similar views."
"Who said this?"
"Ah...ah..."
"Your Highness, this person needs to be reused."
"I want to reuse it, but I can't use it."
"Who could it be?" Pei Xingjian was confused.
Li Wei thought about it and found that not many people knew about this. Even a few people knew about it, they only regarded the Wulu family as a noble woman in Tubo. But if they really had their own son in the future, they would have to find a few close-knit people to discuss it. They whispered: "This matter should not be made public."
"Yes," Pei Xingjian became more and more puzzled. Just a talent, why should he be so mysterious?
"Do you still remember our Nanzhao team, that princess?"
"Remember," Pei Xingjian said lightly. At that time, the princess was a little young and did not grow up. In addition to her military shortcomings, Pei Xingjian did not take it seriously.
"She also said this to Gu."
