Chapter 444

With Changsun Wuji's experienced eyes, today's events have naturally been revealed. This is Li Chengqian setting up a bureau for Li Shimin.

Since Li Chengqian opposed Li Shimin's Eastern Expedition, he, Changsun Wuji, must have supported him.

When he heard Li Shimin ask him, he hurriedly walked out and bowed and said slowly: "I will report to Your Majesty. I remember that Xue Yantuo invaded and Your Majesty wanted to lead the troops to pursue him, but was persuaded by Wei Zheng. This is why His Highness and Your Majesty led his troops to conquer the frontier last year. If you followed Your Majesty's plan back then, you would not have had such heavy troops."

Changsun Wuji's words were told in a casual manner, first saying that Wei Zheng advised Li Shimin not to pursue Xue Yantuo, and then said that Li Chengqian personally led his troops to the frontier.

But the matter of the imperial commander in person was still not mentioned.

Li Shimin was also a master. After hearing Changsun Wuji's words, he showed a look of emotion on his face and said, "This matter was indeed Wei Zheng's mistake. I was worried about blocking the road at that time, so I followed his plan. Later, Cheng Qian was almost surrounded by Xue Yantuo, which made me very scared when I remembered it!"

Seeing that Li Shimin was about to issue an order to personally expedition, Ma Zhou hurriedly walked out and advised: "Your Majesty, the Tang Dynasty sent troops to Xueyantuo last year, and now there are still tens of thousands of soldiers of the Tang Dynasty stationed on the frontier. Guo Xiaoge of the Western Regions is also leading troops to conquer Yanqi. This is not the time to launch a large-scale conquest to attack Goguryeo!"

Seeing that the personal expedition was expected, Li Shimin felt better and said confidently: "If it were the ones Ma Qing's family said in the past, it would be good, but now these problems have been solved by Cheng Qian."

"Have you solved it?" Li Chengqian said in confusion.

"Yes! You created gunpowder and built the Flying Eagle Army. You don't need too many soldiers to attack Goguryeo. I only need to bring another 20,000 cavalry here.

As for food, the navy led by Ke'er went south all the way, and the food and grass recovered were enough." Li Shimin couldn't help laughing happily when he said this.

Li Chengqian glanced at other civil and military ministers and didn't dare to stand up, and he had the intention of killing people.

He had to dust off the dust that did not exist on his robe, bowed to Li Shimin solemnly again, and said aloud: "I will tell you the father, my son has something to say."

Li Shimin glanced at Li Chengqian, put on the smile on his face and said, "Tell me!"

Li Chengqian looked as if he was slacking off his clothes and knelt down, bowing and bowing again, and said, "I heard from my father, but I thought it was inappropriate for my father to personally conquer Goguryeo."

After saying that, before Li Shimin responded, he continued: "In the former Sui Dynasty, he attacked Goguryeo, but failed to defeat him. Because his king was not his king, his general was not his general, his soldiers complained to him, and the thieves were in chaos within, which was appropriate for him to defeat him.

Your Majesty has fought against all the heroes in a hundred battles. Li Shiji and Su Dingfang are all generals. The world is not the world's exhausted world. Your Majesty is confident that this battle will defeat Goguryeo, and the people of the world are waiting for success.

However, the emperor's personal generals are responsible for victory and defeat, and the generals dare not try it with ten thousand horses. Your Majesty also needs to take care of himself and must not forget the warning of hesitation.

If all the generals were ordered to move, then Han Xin's approach to Jingxing, Liu Yu's approach to the river and Wei, and the strategy of completing the achievements was feasible; even if the achievements were caused by the army, there was no major issue related to safety and danger. Li Shiji and Su Dingfang would have to fight bravely to defeat the enemy.

If Fu Jian did not defeat Jin, he would not be defeated and rebelled quickly by Qi Xianbei; if Dou Jiande did not support Luo, he would not be defeated by Qi and both were destroyed;

What’s more, the six universes are maintained by one person, but can we try it lightly to the small Yi?

The Spring and Autumn Period wrote a letter to the king attack Zheng, and he was denied his defeat and ridiculed him, and then shot his shoulders before the royal family could not be restored, so King Huan gave him his own support.

Therefore, it is said: The emperor will not attack him. Please let the father and the emperor observe clearly!”

After Li Chengqian finished speaking, he bowed to the ground.

"Please take a look!" Ma Zhou immediately led his ministers to bow down.

Li Chengqian's passage was changed from Wang Fuzhi's "History and Theory" he read in his previous life. Because Wang Fuzhi was hindsight, it sounds very clear.

The meaning is very simple. Li Shimin was the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, so he could not afford to lose. He had to adopt conservative tactics in his personal expedition to Goguryeo.

Some more dangerous tactics can be adopted if Li Shimin does not go to Li Shiji and Su Dingfang, because they have died in battle and have little impact than Li Shimin. Instead, Li Shimin can only take steady steps and affect the final victory.

This is the same as what Gao Jifu said just now, but it is more profound and more convincing.

Seeing this, Li Shimin's face was inexplicable, and he really didn't know whether to be happy or angry.

Logically speaking, Li Chengqian knew very well that Li Shimin should be happy, but Li Chengqian used this trick on him, which made him feel very angry. Seeing Li Chengqian's behavior as if Wei Zheng possessed him.

After a while, Li Shimin calmed down, stood up and walked to Li Chengqian, bent down and helped Li Chengqian up.

"Everyone is calm!"

Ma Zhou and others bowed and stood up again.

Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian, reached out to pat his shoulder, and said with emotion: "I am very happy that Chengqian, you can understand these principles. However, Goguryeo is a confidant of the Tang Dynasty, and I am over 100 years old. If I cannot destroy Goguryeo for you, I will not be able to leave with peace of mind."

When Li Shimin said these words, he looked at Li Chengqian with loving eyes.

"Father, I will live forever!" Li Chengqian said sincerely.

"Haha!" Li Shimin thought that Li Chengqian would no longer hold on, so he couldn't help laughing.

Li Chengqian laughed at Li Shimin and said seriously: "Father, Goguryeo has been founded for more than five hundred years. Although it is a small country, it is by no means annihilation.

In the fifth year of Zhengshi in the Northern Wei Dynasty (244), Cao Wei sent troops to destroy the capital of Goguryeo. He thought that Goguryeo had perished, but seventy years later Goguryeo has restored its country to this day.

The father personally conquered Liaodong with the honor of Wancheng. If he could not be destroyed in one battle, he would have been blessed with the blessing of being in Liaodong and African countries for a long time. Therefore, it would be better to leave the destruction of Goguryeo to his sons to do it!"

"you?"

Li Shimin's voice increased by octave, which made the people in the hall tremble.

Li Shimin put away his image as a kind father, took two steps back, and looked at Li Chengqian up and down with his hands behind his back.

He said sarcastically: "You have been talking for a long time, I can't destroy Goguryeo, can you destroy?"

"My son is not--"

"Who gives you the courage to think you are stronger than me?"

Before Li Chengqian finished speaking, he heard Li Shimin shouting.

"If you destroy a Xue Yantuo, you won't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick?"

"Father, listen—!"

"The blessing of the imperial guards in Liaodong for a long time? Do you think that if the crown prince of the country is in Liaodong for a long time, it would be a blessing of the Tang Dynasty?" The first half of the sentence was said to Li Chengqian, and the second half was a question of the ministers in the department.

"this……"

Not to mention Ma Zhou, even Changsun Wuji dared not speak nonsense. No matter which one is the Imperial Master or the Crown Lord has been in Liaodong for a long time, it is not a good thing and they can't afford it at all.

"Father, when did the son minister say that he would go to Liaodong in person?"

"Hmph! You don't dare to measure it!"

Li Shimin's anger at Li Chengqian was out of control, and he even sarcastically sarcastically ignored his identity.

Li Chengqian was anxious when he scolded him and replied coldly: "Of course, the minister of Liaodong dared to go, but the minister knew that this was useless, so he only planned to build a city in Youzhou."

"Build a city? Do you want to build a large-scale construction?" Li Shimin immediately became alert.
