Chapter 119: Zi Chen asked right (Part 2)

Li Zhi was watching Su Dawei, the smoke ignited by the spices in the Zichen Hall.

Wu Meiniang held one of Li Zhi's hands, her eyes were gentle.

The hall is extremely quiet.

Su Dawei couldn't let Li Zhi wait too long.

He can't just talk about clichés.

Because this time I entered the palace, it was actually another form of "job narration report".

You must come up with something real to satisfy Li Zhi.

"When you go back to your Majesty, if you want Goguryeo to reduce rebellion and even completely integrate into the Tang Dynasty, I have some simple opinions."

Li Zhi didn't say anything, but his waist seemed to be slightly straightened.

This is a positive signal.

Su Dawei continued: "First of all, we must eradicate the original power. If there is any rebellion, we must eradicate the roots.

The second article is to support those who are close to the Tang Dynasty so that the people of Goguryeo cannot unite and divide and transform them.

The third point is to use the culture and skills of the Tang Dynasty to continuously penetrate the Goguryeo people's ideas, so that they can admire our Tang Dynasty culture and be proud of joining the Tang Dynasty."

What Su Dawei said is actually not new. Both in the Tang Dynasty and later generations, they are very skilled in this method.

Destroy the stubborn and support the surrendered agents.

Finally, there is cultural infiltration and educational transformation.

Although Li Zhi did not object to what Su Dawei said, a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

At this moment, Su Dawei said something again.

"I believe that the chief executive and the general are already doing these things.

These can be cured for a while, but not the root cause. What is really useful is cultural infiltration. Although it takes a long time, it is the root cause.

I think that I can give people from Goguryeo and Baekje a ladder."

"ladder?"

"It is the level of promotion. We broke the original class of Goguryeo and Baekje, disrupted their original order, and it is necessary to establish a new order.

Just relying on killing can't lead to a stable situation.

There must be a ladder for promotion to absorb the elites in Goguryeo and Baekje into our Tang Dynasty.

From the perspective of the minister, you can follow the Tang system and set up a selection of institutions in your jurisdiction to make contributions to the Tang Dynasty or have local talents. You can recommend them. You can join the institutions established by the Governor's Office to learn the advanced cultural system of the Tang Dynasty. Among them, the outstanding ones can be sent to the Tang Dynasty for further study, or even to the Imperial College for in-depth study of our culture.

After passing the assessment, those who are outstanding will be given the opportunity to enter the Tang Dynasty as an official.

I believe that through these subtle means, the talents on the Peninsula can be used by our Tang Dynasty, and at the same time, they can establish the class that is pro-Tang Dynasty and consolidate Goguryeo and Baekje."

Li Zhi listened carefully until Su Dawei finished speaking. He thought carefully, nodded and said a word: "Good."

This means that he recognizes what Su Dawei said.

In fact, as the common ruler of the world, the Tang Dynasty had always had the habit of absorbing talents from various foreign countries for their own use.

There have always been a large number of foreign generals and even foreign officials in the Tang court.

For example, Ashinosheer, Qibirheli, etc., were tribes conquered by the Tang Dynasty in the past, and finally surrendered to the tribe.

From then on, he made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty's wars.

But this kind of absorption of force is different from the situation on the peninsula after all.

The concepts of the tribes in the grassland are still relatively vague about their own nation and country. They will follow whoever is strong. They have been used to it for thousands of years.

In contrast, Goguryeo and Baekje are both of the other species of Fuyu.

Both countries have existed for hundreds of years, and their orthodox and national concepts are deeply rooted in the hearts of the locals.

It is very difficult to assimilate.

But what Su Dawei mentioned did give Li Zhi a systematic solution.

From fighting rebellion with stubbornness.

To support the pro-Tang agent.

It is not surprising that cultural education has slowly penetrated, and these have been mentioned before.

However, Su Dawei finally joined these tricks and proposed to establish a new order, cultivate and absorb local talents, enter the internal circulation of the Tang Dynasty, and join the Tang Dynasty bureaucracy.

Therefore, both sides can achieve integration at the elite level.

The specific implementation of course requires countless details and regulations, but at least it sounds really feasible.

With this framework proposed by Su Dawei, Li Zhi had a little more confidence in governing and digesting Goguryeo and Baekje.

After chewing it carefully, a smile finally appeared on his face: "Ami, you are not bad. In recent years, Governor Xiong Jin has been well trained."

After hearing Li Zhi's words, Su Dawei felt a little relieved.

I feel that most of my "job report" has been passed.

At this moment, Li Zhi suddenly spoke, "What's going on in Japan?"

Knock!

Su Dawei was shocked and knew that the real test was coming.

The front part is just a warm-up.

What Li Zhi really cares about is probably Su Dawei's conquest of the Japanese.

Although Li Zhi later submitted a memorial to this matter, he was executed first and then reported.

With Li Zhi's shrewdness, it is impossible not to ignore it.

He was even extremely sensitive to the movements of the general in charge of his troops.

Before Su Dawei entered the palace, he knew that Li Zhi would definitely question this.

The first time Li Zhi summoned him into the palace, he returned it because of the assassination.

It is said that it is giving Li Zhi buffering time, but it is not that giving himself a buffering time and finding the most suitable time.

Taking a deep breath, Su Dawei clasped his fists to Li Zhi and said, "Your Majesty, my primary responsibility is to guard Baekje."

"If you want to conquer Baekje, you will conquer the Japanese? What's the reason?"

Li Li's tone showed a bit of coldness.

From his slightly narrowed eyes, a dangerous light flashed.

This is Tian Khan, who is questioning whether the general leads his troops have the intention of being unjust.

Cold sweat faintly emerged from Su Dawei's forehead.

He knew that this was the most critical test for entering the palace this time.

One of the characteristics of Li Zhi’s employment is that if he has doubts, he will abandon it and even kill it.

If he could confirm the loyalty of his subjects, even if his abilities were poor, he would still remain in office.

For Li Zhi, loyalty is the first priority.

Since he was not a horse emperor like Taizong Li Zhimin, he was founding monarch, so he naturally could not dominate the world with his military merits and prestige.

Li Zhi controlled the Tang Dynasty based on his vision, wisdom, tolerance, and his wise imperial power.

Just as he deposed Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao, he helped Wu Meiniang become the queen.

Taking advantage of the abolition of the queen, he also cracked down on Guanlong and Shandong clans and suppressed Changsun Wuji.

Then he pushed Wu Meiniang to the front of the stage and fought against the old ministers and clans.

He is behind the scenes, balancing inside and outside.

During the end of Li Zhi's reign, the most important things, such as military, financial power, personnel appointments and removals, were always firmly grasped in the hands of the emperor.

The only officials Wu Meiniang was close to were Li Yi's mansion and Xu Jingzong.

One of these two people was exiled for sin and the other resigned from their posts.

He almost did not provide any reliable assistance from Wu Meiniang.

As for the relatives of my parents, only his sister Wu Shun and his mother Yang have introduced them to the palace so far.

Wu Meiniang really holds great power after Li Zhi’s death.

Li Zhi is a "Tian Khan" who is very good at playing the balance technique, leveraging the power to steal the scenes, and firmly grasping authority.

The territory of the Tang Dynasty reached its peak in his hands.

In this way, a hero will become the name of "cowardly" in later generations.

Su Dawei saw Li Zhi's growth with his own eyes, so he naturally would not have any luck.

In the entire Tang Dynasty, the only one who trusted Wu Meiniang the most and was most defensive to Wu Meiniang was Li Zhi.

He believed and used both Wu Meiniang.

But he was very vigilant and guarded against the people around Wu Meiniang.

Su Dawei was regarded as his younger brother by Wu Meiniang and was also a young general. She is really an "outlier" in Wu Mei's relationship network.

His identity and location are extremely sensitive in Li Zhi's eyes.

Su Dawei's heart is like a mirror.

He took a deep breath, calmed down, took out the answer that he had thought countless times in his stomach, and clasped his fists to Li Zhi and said, "Your Majesty, since I have practiced military tactics with Duke Xing, I have always kept a word in my heart, saying that those who do not plan for the overall situation are not enough to plan for a domain.

Although Baekje has been conquered by our army, the Baekje royal family and the Japanese king are relatives of blood and have been intimate for generations.

Otherwise, Japan would not lead the troops to expedition to Baijiang with its might.

If it weren't for your Majesty's God, I and Liu Rengui were in a meeting and defeated the Japanese army in Baijiang in one fell swoop. If tens of thousands of Japanese troops landed, the consequences would be unimaginable.

At that time, we had only 10,000 Tang troops in Siqi City, plus thousands of Silla servants.

If the Japanese army and the Baekje rebels join in aid, and with Goguryeo, the situation in Baekje will inevitably be earth-shaking!"

These words are by no means dangerous, but very likely.

Tens of thousands of Japanese troops were limited by warships and tactics on the sea, and were defeated by Su Dawei and Liu Rengui and Liu Boying.

But if these tens of thousands of Japanese troops landed in Baekje, the battle would definitely be another situation.

There were the Japanese army in front and the Baekje rebels in the back.

Plus the Silla people with ulterior motives.

There is also Goguryeo staring at her, which is a situation of death.

Quan Lai Su Dawei reacted quickly at that time and won the battle. Before Goguryeo, Silla, Baekje rebels and Japanese troops formed an encirclement, they first attacked Goguryeo and bought summons and robbed the Goguryeo people's food and grass.

He turned around and defeated the Baekje rebels like Fuyufeng.

Then he defeated the Japanese army at Baijiangkou.

Finally, he used a great victory and a differentiation strategy to attract Silla Prince Kim In-tae, and made him compete with Kim Famin for the position of Silla King.

If any link goes wrong, the Tang army guarding the Siqi City of Baekje will be doomed.

But Su Dawei relied on his strong wisdom and execution to make a time difference and a big victory in the impossible.

Nowadays, Baekje can have such a favorable situation. Su Dawei and his soldiers fought for their lives.

Even Li Zhi, who was hesitant, could not help but be moved by these words.

Li Zhi's voice slowed down and said, "It is very difficult for me to have the current situation with the troops I have left in Baekje."

After a pause, he continued, "Since you break the Japanese country in Baijiang, why do you need to cross the sea to expedition again?"

"Your Majesty, the Japanese are ambitious. Your Majesty is not on the front line. He does not know that the Japanese are arrogant. If they do not severely defeat their ambitions and destroy their foundation, they are afraid that Baekje will never have peace."
