"Thank you, His Royal Highness, for the reward..."
……
20 taels of silver, they don't know how many years of salary can earn so much money.
a little while...
Li Chengqian took a bath in the palace, enjoying the maid's massage while eating the best snacks in the palace, he really felt a bit extravagant.
No wonder some emperors are obsessed with the harem, love beauties, and dislike the country.
King Zhou's wine pool and meat forest.
King You of Zhou's beacon plays the feudal lords.
Yang Guang's extravagance is extreme.
They made a lot of construction, didn't think about government affairs, ran rampant and extorted money, and pushed themselves into a place where they would never be restored.
Compared with them, the emperor Li Shimin did a very good job.
After Li Shimin succeeded to the throne, he didn't even build a palace, and he was dedicated to the people of the world.
Therefore, Li Chengqian carried him more smoothly, and the rhythm was better controlled.
Last year, Li Shimin often had a hard time with him, thinking that Lao Tzu was the emperor, and what Lao Tzu said was right.
Since Li Chengqian destroyed Goryeo, Li Shimin saw his ability with his own eyes.
Talking to him is all kind.
Chapter 398
The next day...
Chang'an City...
Tai Chi Hall...
In the early morning today, Li Shimin rewarded each army for meritorious service.
The treasury of the Tang Dynasty was already full, and the Western Turks and several rebels were wiped out during the Western Expedition. Food, grass, gold and silver were all transported back to Chang'an City by truck.
Countless livestock such as cattle, horses, and sheep were seized, and Zhang Xiong kept them in captivity on the grasslands around Anxi Duhufu.
With money in his hand, Li Shimin's words are tough, and his hands are even more generous.
The main reason is that Li Chengqian fought this battle really well, and there are basically no strong countries around the Tang Dynasty.
Many small countries have their own alliances, carefully guarding against the raptor of Datang.
This expedition.
The most dazzling one is undoubtedly the white robe army, who moved to fight for thousands of miles, driving the rhythm of the entire Hexi battlefield.
Fly up the rhythm belt.
Under the huge disadvantage of numbers, the most fruitful results have been achieved.
Therefore, the white-robed army received the most rewards. Even so, no one was jealous. After all, their rewards were won by strength.
After this reward.
Su Dingfang has been officially worshiped as the fourth rank, and he went to the government to rush to the captain.
Cheng Huailiang, Luo Tong and others paid homage to the fifth rank, and went to the government to Zhechong Duwei.
Therefore, Cheng Yaojin and Yu Chigong were the happiest.
The two battalion-level commanders of the White Robe Army are their own sons.
Chao Wenwu looked at the two people who were full of ambition, showing envy.
These two people usually look naive, but they turned out to be two far-sighted old bastards.
Why were they so discerning at the beginning, rushing to send their son to the White Robe Army?
They beat their chests and stamped their feet, regretting so much that they missed an opportunity to be famous in history.
"Your Majesty, the Turks have been wiped out, Li Huanlin and other rebels have been defeated, and now there is only the Tuyuhun country that has not been dealt with. They have made trouble and invaded the border of our Tang Dynasty. They must not be easily forgiven."
"If we don't let them know that our Tang Dynasty is majestic and inviolable, how can we deter neighboring countries in the future."
Wei Zheng stood up from the court hall and clapped his hands to play the book.
heard...
Li Shimin nodded lightly, "What Wei Aiqing said is true. Although the war is over, this matter needs to be resolved as soon as possible. Turkic will not talk about it. He has been exterminated by Chengqian and has received due punishment. Tuyuhun also There is a price to be paid for their ignorance."
"Although Murong Fuyun sent envoys to the court to cede land and pay compensation, I did not agree to him."
Immediately after...
He turned his head to Li Chengqian, "Chengqian, you are the first in this battle, and you are the crown prince. What do you think about this matter? I want to hear your thoughts."
The words fall...
Chao Wenwu's eyes all looked at Li Chengqian.
Now that Li Shimin was thinking about it, he was at ease, and let Li Chengqian handle all the difficult things.
Li Chengqian did not have the name of supervising the country, but he had the power to supervise the country.
However, none of the Korean, Chinese and military officials objected. After all, Li Chengqian's ability is there.
No one is dissatisfied, even those who are dissatisfied have already been defeated.
Li Chengqian stepped forward and saluted, "Returning to my father, Tuyuhun's envoy Murong Bai once went to Yizhou to find my son, and my son only asked Tuyuhun to pay some money."
Hearing this, there was an uproar in the court, and they were very surprised.
"Ah? Did I hear you right? This is what His Royal Highness said, it shouldn't be..."
"That's right, His Highness would be worthy of them if he didn't exterminate the Tuyuhun family. It's just that the compensation is really too light..."
"No, this is wrong. His Royal Highness will not be so talkative. Even if he doesn't attack Tuyuhun, he will let them peel off a layer of skin. He won't let them go so easily..."
Civil and military officials whispered and talked to each other.
"His Royal Highness, I'm afraid there is something wrong with this."
Wei Dangdang looked at Li Chengqian, frowning.
Hearing this, Chaotang Wenwu looked at Wei Zheng with admiration, and he deserved to be the number one slander in the Tang Dynasty.
I admire you……
Wei Zheng is fearless, as an admonisher from a poor family, this is his duty, whether Li Chengqian likes it or not, he has to question it.
But Li Shimin didn't panic, he was the elder brother who knew him best, it was okay for him to care, but if he didn't care, there would be a bigger conspiracy.
Anyone in this world can suffer, but he, Li Chengqian, can't, not even him, the emperor Lao Tzu.
"Hehe..." Li Chengqian smiled lightly, calmly, "Master Wei, don't worry, do you think I'm the one who suffers?"
"This……"
Wei Zheng felt embarrassed looking at Li Chengqian's smiling face.
"I hope His Highness the Crown Prince will forgive me. The old minister is also impatient for a while, and has no intention of being rude to His Highness..."
Wei Zheng cupped his hands to Li Chengqian.
Li Shimin: "??"
Grandson Wuji: "??"
Fang Mou made a decision: "??"
Civil and military officials: "?? +999..."
This fucking sun came out of the ground.
When did the well-known Datang No. [-] man become so easy to talk to? On weekdays, he doesn't even give Li Shimin face.
Where is your dignity?What about your confidence?
Today, Li Chengqian was only convinced by this sentence.
But it can't be said to be cowardly.
It's not so much a confession, but Wei Zheng's admiration for Li Chengqian from the bottom of his heart.
"It doesn't matter." Li Chengqian waved his hand, "Wei Gong is also thinking of Datang, and he is not at fault."
Li Chengqian was very generous and didn't care about him, showing his demeanor.
The words fall...
Both Chinese and martial arts in the city showed their admiration.
At such an age, with such a status, he has made great contributions and is unparalleled in the limelight.
But the indifference and equanimity shown by Li Chengqian made them admire.
Li Chengqian's character is really not comparable to ordinary people, even ordinary people are not good. Li Shimin doesn't know how much virtue he has accumulated in his previous life to give birth to such an excellent son.
Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian in the hall, his face was full of pampering, this son is really getting better and better, he has the demeanor of his youth.
"Chengqian, if you have any thoughts, please tell everyone." Li Shimin said softly with a calm face.
He thought to himself that this Wei Zheng was really, didn't he understand Li Chengqian's character?
Li Chengqian said indifferently: "Murong Bai wants his ministers to help him win the title of Great Khan of Tuyuhun. As long as he succeeds, he will surrender Tuyuhun's military power and lead Tuyuhun into our Great Tang."
"There will be a battle between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo sooner or later. Songtsan Gampo's wolfish ambitions, when the Tang Dynasty is in danger, add fuel to the flames and add fuel to the situation. His heart is to be punished. His ministers want to take the initiative to attack Tubo."
"But my Tang soldiers are not used to the plateau climate, and it is difficult to fight in the field, so I agreed to Murong Bai's request. The [-] elite soldiers from Tuyuhun are what the Tang Dynasty really needs."
"With these [-] elite soldiers, I am confident that I will capture Luoxie City in one fell swoop, destroy Tubo, and restore the stability of the western frontier of our Tang Dynasty."
The words fall...
Both the Chinese and the military in the city frowned, secretly thinking about the stakes.
After all, this battle is not just a fight, it can be fought.
Chapter 399 Another Bet
Li Shimin frowned, "Chengqian, although your thoughts are good, can you guarantee Murong Bai's loyalty? People who are not of my race must have different hearts. You will understand such a simple truth."
"If he pretends to surrender and intends to plot against me, Tang Dynasty, we will lose more than we gain. After all, we cannot guarantee the loyalty of a foreign khan."
"If my guess is correct, you must go to lead the army to attack Tubo, and the white-robed army will also go, then what kind of situation will you face?"
"30 Tubo army, [-] Tuyuhun army, once Tuyuhun rebels or reveals his true colors, Cheng Qian, do you know what kind of things you will face?"
"Immortal!"
The words fall...
hum...
The military officials in North Korea and Chinese were like a bolt from the blue. They didn't expect Li Shimin to react so quickly, hitting the nail on the head and telling the most serious consequences directly.
To say that the one who knows his son best is Lao Tzu.
Li Chengqian also thought about this matter.
But in order to attack Tubo, he couldn't wait for the Tang army to adapt to the plateau climate.
He didn't want the Tang army to add casualties.
Seeing that Li Chengqian did not speak, Li Shimin continued: "You are somewhat sure about this matter."
"Eighty percent." Li Chengqian said bluntly, even if he tried his best, he couldn't guarantee that this matter was [-]% sure.
"No, I don't agree." Li Shimin said firmly, "Even with a [-]% certainty, I won't allow you to go. This matter is too dangerous."
Li Chengqian was not in a hurry, and the situation was calm, "Father, my son, let me ask you, in your military life, which battle is [-]% sure? The battle of Xihe, the battle of Qianshuiyuan, or the battle of Hulao ?”
"The world is so big, whoever can achieve great things can only do it with [-]% certainty. There are risks in wars. If it doesn't take a single soldier from the Tang Dynasty to capture Tubo, why not do it?"
"Those who achieve great things don't care about small details, how can my son put himself in danger?"
