Chapter 86 With a confused look, His Majesty has surrendered?
When the minister said these words, it means that his temper has become better now.
If he were younger and someone said this, he would definitely kill him with a knife.
The seller's request for glory is said so grandly, and he still looks like he is doing something for the world and the common people?
"My dear friends, do you have any other opinions?"
"Your Majesty, I think that there is no need for us to continue to tolerate the Turks.
Our forbearance time after time can only be exchanged for the Turks kicking their noses and faces again and again, and making more and more excessive demands every time.
Let's go to war with the Turks. After so many years of recuperation, all the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty have this fire in their hearts.
The Tang Dynasty will definitely win this battle!"
"Start a war, start a war, you are going to push our country, the Tang Dynasty, into the abyss."
For a while, the two sides were quarreling over the issue of whether to start a war or not, and the ministers below were seen talking incessantly.
"Okay, you are all ministers of the Tang Dynasty. How unbecoming are you to argue like this in this court? Please shut up."
"It's Your Majesty."
Li Er's angry rebuke caused the two sides to stop arguing. I have made my own decision regarding the Turks and will withdraw from the court.
As the personal officer beside him shouted to retreat, the ministers shouted to see off His Majesty.
Li Er stood up and left, and all the civil and military officials also left the court and rushed to their homes.
While walking on the road, several people gathered together and discussed Turkic affairs in twos and threes.
…
"Brother, what happened just now really pissed me off.
How dare these abominable Tang people treat my Turkic soldiers like this?"
"Okay, third brother, I told you before, lose your temper when you should, and don't lose your temper when you shouldn't.
Now that we are in the court of the Tang Dynasty, we only need to let the Tang people know what I mean by Turkic.
There is no need for us to break up with them at the moment."
As he said this, his heart was actually full of anger.
He had already hinted so clearly that he asked Datang to release the two Turkic soldiers.
But unexpectedly, the Tang emperor actually demoted the two Turkic soldiers accompanying them as slaves and sent them to Lingnan.
This simply doesn't take their face into consideration.
This group of Tang people just likes to engage in such tricks. If I tell you, I should let my Turkic cavalry go south again to weaken the Tang people's spirit.
"Okay, let's talk about everything tomorrow."
"yes, Sir."
With the end of the court, Li Er returned to Tai Chi Hall, summoned some of his confidants, and came to Tai Chi Hall to start small-scale discussions.
"His Majesty."
"I called you here this time to tell you about the Turks."
"This Turkic child has always been a serious problem for me. Some ministers in the court asked me to keep sending money to the Turks in order to maintain the relationship between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks. I am really angry to death."
"Your Majesty, please don't be angry. These people only talk about it every day and have never been to the front line.
I don’t know these principles at all. How can the safety of our Datang border depend on food and grass?
It’s not all about who has the bigger fist, it’s just that
Your Majesty, I wonder what you mean?"
"Pretend to agree and paralyze the Turks, but actually transport food and grass to the front line, and at the same time send a large army to the north. Wait until next spring, we, the Tang Dynasty, will launch a surprise attack on the Turks!"
Thinking of what my wise brother said, according to my wise brother's intention, there is no need to hide it. He can directly start a war with the Turks. Anyway, Datang will definitely win the war next year.
But as an emperor, it is better for him to be cautious. After all, the Turks are also very difficult opponents.
"Keming, auxiliary aircraft, how are the battle arrangements arranged?"
"It's your Majesty!"
Changsun Wuji and Du Ruhui stood up and repeated what Zhao Mu said before from beginning to end.
The ministers below were completely stunned upon hearing this. It turned out that His Majesty had already arranged the battle.
Even after the Tang Dynasty won the victory, the route for the Turks to flee westward had been arranged. Isn't this amazing?
"Everyone, do you have any objections about this battle?"
"Your Majesty, we have no objections."
"Since there is no objection, this is how the battle will be arranged."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Li Jing, as the commander-in-chief of the three armies, you will lead a few soldiers to make arrangements now.
The remaining generals are waiting for orders in Chang'an City, and when the time is right, they will go north to lead the army in battle."
"Your Majesty and his ministers are taking the order!"
"Your Majesty, what about the Turkic envoy who came this time?"
"Humph, so what if you promise them?"
"Your Majesty, if this spreads out, won't it mean that the world will say that the Tang Dynasty has gone back on its word?"
"The Turks are the first to betray their promises and come to conquer our country, the Tang Dynasty.
When dealing with these treacherous people, we in the Tang Dynasty just follow their methods and return them back.
Remember what happened today, I just told you, don’t leak it in advance, I will tell the world when the war starts.”
"This is your Majesty, I obey your orders!"
After leaving the Tai Chi Hall, a group of ministers went to make preparations. Li Jing and others took a group of soldiers and began to mobilize troops and generals out of Chang'an City and set off towards the northern border.
However, the officers and soldiers were not told what they were going to do at the northern border. All the officers and soldiers only had to follow the orders.
"Why do I always feel a little uneasy?"
After returning to Honglu Temple in the Tang Dynasty court, Ashinasu was restless and felt uneasy, as if something big had happened.
"Brother, now that we have arrived in Chang'an City, do you want to follow us two brothers and go to Chang'an City to have a good time?"
Now that the few people have arrived in Chang'an City, one thing is to deal with things, and the more important thing is to let everyone relax and relax.
Thinking of the location of the Turks and the place where they lived, and looking at their Chang'an city in the Tang Dynasty with the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers, I felt secretly resentful.
Such a good place was actually occupied by people from the Tang Dynasty.
"If you want to go, you two can go, but remember, this Chang'an City is no different from other cities, so don't cause more trouble."
"It's eldest brother. Don't worry. Sons, follow me to Chang'an City and have a good time."
"It's the prince."
The night passed quickly, until the next day when Li Er went to court, he summoned the Turkic envoys again.
"Dear Your Majesty the Tang Dynasty, I wonder how your Majesty and the ministers discussed the suggestions we made to you yesterday?"
"Prince Ashinasu, after you left yesterday, I had a careful discussion with all the ministers in my court.
I think what Prince Ashinasu said is not unreasonable.
The Tang Dynasty and the Turks are friendly neighbors, and they are even more affectionate brothers.
Now that the Turks are suffering from disaster, how can we, the Tang Dynasty, stand by and watch, I have decided that what you said yesterday is correct!"
