Chapter 292 Isn't this a good opportunity to please the prince?
Although the atmosphere seems a bit reserved, Li Sheng's arrival also marks...
This hunt has officially begun.
Qin Ruochan rode the sweat horse, took two steps, and looked at Li Sheng beside her.
"Have you heard about what happened today?"
Qin Ruochan said something without beginning or end, looking elsewhere.
He is very calm about Li Sheng's existence, and seems to be...
Li Sheng was slightly startled, "What's wrong? What did you hear?"
"……snort."
Qin Ruochan was silent for a while, and then snorted from Qiong's nose.
"Haha, Your Majesty is determined to use troops against the Turks and send an army of 100,000. How can you not know about such a big thing despite your great powers?"
"Uh... I really don't know about this."
Li Sheng felt a little emotional, and before he knew it, it was time for Li Er to use troops against the Turks.
Of course, that wasn't the main thing he was feeling.
But because of his own appearance, the butterfly effect is all kinds of...
Originally, in the records of his previous life, Li Er sent Li Jing to lead his troops to the Turks, and they returned with a great victory, almost annihilating the Turks. But this time, the victory was not that simple.
There are certain factors. For example, after Li Er ascended the throne, the policy of governance returned to people-oriented principles, and the people received a lot of benefits. They were generally in a state of having a full stomach and being very grateful to His Majesty.
With people's sentiments like this, it is understandable that morale is naturally very strong.
With strong morale and the leadership of the elite captains who survived from the Wagang Volunteer Division, this combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated.
But there is another direct reason why Li Er was able to sweep away powerful enemies just a few years after his humiliation on the Wei River and the alliance under the city.
It was the autumn and winter of this year, and there was a heavy snowfall in Mobei!
The terrifying heavy snow has deeply damaged the production and living conditions of various Turkic tribes.
Not only did a large number of cattle and horses freeze to death, but the combat effectiveness of the Turkic army was drastically reduced.
More importantly, this heavy snow also led to severe famine, which plunged the Turkic tribes into an unprecedented death crisis.
Famine is a more effective command than the emperor's military talisman.
In all the unified dynasties in the Central Plains, the courts were extremely afraid of famine. After all, if there was famine, there would be refugees, and if there were refugees, there would be rebels.
What's more, the Turks are not a unified world. They are a union of numerous nomadic tribes, large and small.
The monarch is relatively powerful. When the water and grass on the grassland are plentiful, he can even be knitted together and organized into a force.
If the monarch is not powerful, they are basically just a group of ordinary herdsmen who part-time rob passing vendors.
In the event of such a disaster...
In fact, in Mobei, as long as there is a relatively powerful monarch, they basically know one thing.
Grazing - it can't last long!
There is little ability to resist risks, so it is natural to go south and east to rob while the grass is deep and the horse is in full swing.
This is the root of the northern problem China has faced for thousands of years. The production methods that the land in Mobei can support are not risk-resistant.
then……
It can be imagined.
What would be the consequences if a snowstorm suddenly appeared in such a place and destroyed animal husbandry production on a large scale?
The horror of famine directly dispersed all the forces that Jieli Khan, the leader of the Turks, had managed to unite with great difficulty, and started a crazy battle royale within tribes one by one.
This is the background of Li Jing's one-hit success.
But Li Sheng has been thinking about this issue since he traveled through time...
If the crossing time is shorter, this snowstorm may still happen.
But I have traveled a long time, so it is hard to say whether this blizzard will come again.
If it were just the Tang Dynasty itself and human society, that would be fine. Human society is nothing more than a matter of technological level and historical cycle coordinates.
It is impossible to say that a butterfly effect directly transformed the early Tang Dynasty into the Southern Song Dynasty. There is no such thing.
But because of his arrival, a blizzard no longer follows the "script", which is completely possible!
If this blizzard does not come because of his arrival, then if the Imperial Army of the Tang Dynasty wants to solve the border troubles...
It's definitely not possible, but the cost will definitely be huge.
That's why Li Shengcai has been letting Lao Li and the others pick the wool. If they can make some contribution to the Tang Dynasty, it can be regarded as compensation.
But now the Imperial Guard of the Tang Dynasty can be considered as getting whatever they want in a phased manner.
It’s not surprising that he is now taking the initiative to command Mobei!
But Qin Ruochan seemed a little unhappy.
"What's wrong with you? Isn't it good to quell the border troubles? The people on the frontier can't be taken advantage of."
Li Sheng discovered something was wrong with Qin Ruochan.
Hearing this, Qin Ruochan's face turned slightly red, but she immediately turned her head and snorted again.
"snort!"
"Your Majesty is so biased... they can all go to the front line, so why do I have to be your security guard here?"
Qin Ruochan was mainly disappointed.
after all……
No matter what I say, I really got good grades in the martial arts exam.
The result...is this?
The promised meritorious service.
But when she said this, Li Sheng laughed, "Most people don't have the opportunity to perform meritorious service, and they don't even have the conditions to practice martial arts. If they don't perform meritorious service, wouldn't everyone live their lives as usual?"
"Of course it's good to go to the national crisis together. There's no need to be angry if you can't go."
"snort……"
Qin Ruochan was comforted by Li Sheng's warm words, and her face suddenly turned red. She was at a loss for a while and could only continue to hum...
but.
At this moment, countless eyes around him suddenly gathered again.
Li Sheng noticed the change in the atmosphere and looked around in slight surprise.
Then, I saw a man riding a tall horse walking towards this side.
Compared to Li Sheng's donkey, the physique of the opponent's tall, specially-bred Dawan horse was simply as big as in the sky or on the earth.
Just smile when you meet me,
"Hey, isn't this the Marquis of Shengxiang? I heard that you have offered many suggestions and gifts to my father, and you have made countless contributions. You were also named a general... I have heard of your name for a long time, haha!"
In the words, the meaning of frivolity and contempt could not be clearer.
Almost unabashedly!
That's right, Li Chengqian was naturally a polite and good boy when facing his superiors, such as Li Er, and several very important ministers, such as Wei Zheng and others.
But who is this guy?
He's just a wild stranger, why should he behave politely himself?
Li Chengqian had no desire to show off.
at the same time……
Along with Li Chengqian, there were two brothers, Xiao Rui and Xiao Kai, who were equally prominent.
These two brothers were the sons of Xiao Yu, the prime minister at the time.
Xiao Rui is older and he can clearly see Li Chengqian's unhappiness.
When I looked at the culprit again, he didn't seem to be very prominent, so I felt relieved immediately.
Isn't this a good opportunity to please the prince?
