It is not impossible to say that Li Er was joking, or that he was deceived by some charlatan.
Since ancient times, there has been no shortage of talented and courageous swindlers who directly target the monarch of a country.
But...since he is a liar, how could he make up so many unfamiliar terms?
Being able to say these many new words, although it is difficult to understand, it feels vaguely very organized. This is obviously...
"Your Majesty, could this phone number be..."
Li Er looked at the horrified and confused expressions of the three ministers in front of him, looked at them carefully for a while, and then...
Laughing loudly!
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"
"That's right! That's exactly it!"
…
This shocking fact was finally confirmed from Li Er's mouth.
There is truly a way of transmitting sounds across the world.
This fact was obtained from Li Er's mouth, and the key source was Li Sheng.
Since it was done by Li Sheng, everything is easy to say.
This night...
The Prime Minister was in charge of Wei Zheng, Du Ruhui, Minister of War, and General Li Jing stayed in the palace until late at night.
When they left late at night, Wei Zheng and the other three remained silent. The servants along the way were all on tenterhooks, not knowing what was going on.
These three ministers all seemed to be hiding something extremely important.
But after all, the chamberlains still couldn't figure out the inside story, and they didn't know what the inside story was about.
All I know is that on the second day after this night, a thundering imperial edict appeared in the court hall.
Li Er announced that the size of the imperial army on the eastern front of Northern Xinjiang would be withdrawn to 50,000, leaving only 30,000 in Northern Xinjiang, under the full command of General Cheng Yaojin, acting expediently.
This matter is not a court discussion.
Li Er directly announced that this was the imperial edict, and seriously warned the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty to obey and coordinate on this matter!
As soon as the news came out...
The whole of Chang'an was in a state of panic.
Everyone in Chang'an, from the nobles of the clan to the common people on the streets, all learned of the news and quickly found their familiar relatives and friends to talk about it and pass the news on to the next group of people.
This news is so shocking!
If Li Jing's overturn on the western front in Mobei had brought panic to the people of Chang'an, then...
At this moment, they felt more confused.
Damn...
Why did the second crisis of Chang'an happen in the first place? Wasn't it because Li Jing overturned in Mobei and his defense was empty?
The result is now...
Now, Li Er actually took the initiative to transfer the imperial troops from the eastern front of Mobei.
Eighty thousand elite troops, 50,000 were withdrawn at once.
There are only 30,000 left to defend Goguryeo’s hundreds of thousands of troops?
this?
This news is absolutely shocking to anyone who has even tried it a little bit!
And, puzzled.
Li Erfeng's martial virtues, especially his military qualities, surpassed all emperors in ancient and modern times. He was a good hand at leading troops in war.
But why...
Why did Li Er, such a powerful emperor with rich military virtues, make such outrageous decisions?
Not to mention the distance, even the carriage drivers on the streets of Chang'an knew that those barbarians in the north were very tight.
No matter how powerful the imperial army of the Tang Dynasty was, and no matter how confident the people of the Tang Dynasty were, they would never think that only 30,000 people were needed to defend such a large plain.
Unless these 30,000 people are all heavenly soldiers and generals, then maybe...
No.
Even if you are a heavenly soldier and a heavenly general, the range in Mobei is too large. No matter how powerful you are, you can sweep away all the tribes in Mobei, but you can't wipe out all the tribes at once, right?
I'm afraid even killing pigs won't be enough...
Of course, killing pigs should still be enough.
Where will the pigs run? His Majesty has sent a famous general like Cheng Yaojin to lead an army of 30,000 people. He can figure out the habits, preferences and movement routes of the pigs. It is not impossible to catch them all at once and kill them all at once.
possible.
But the problem is...the other party is not a herd of pigs, the other party is called Goguryeo, and Goguryeo is a group of people.
Since you are a human being, no matter how capable you are, unless you can go straight to Huanglong and capture all the royal families and army commanders of Goguryeo at once, and the opponent is leaderless, this place will be considered conquered.
But since this is currently not possible... if we really want to fight, we will inevitably face the problem of pressing the gourd and raising the gourd again.
The barbarians in the east mountain were beaten, and two more barbarians appeared in the west mountain.
By the time you run to Xishan again, two groups of barbarians have already looted the Han villages and fled. If you delay in Xishan for a while longer, maybe four groups of barbarians have appeared in Dongshan and started looting more.
The village.
Therefore, no matter how awesome the commander-in-chief is, he cannot be divorced from the word military strength.
Without soldiers, no matter how capable the general is, even if he wins every battle, he still can't defeat him, right?
but……
After all, the common people are just ordinary people. Even if they are shocked by the news, there is nothing they can do. Why don't they imitate those scholars and write a letter? Everyone doesn't know how to write this "letter".
So the days went on like this, and then Qiwang and others from the fifth surname got the news!
However, the Five Surnames and Qiwang are not a group of ordinary people after all.
Although they have lost their power now, their status and prestige are still there, and they still have thousands of hectares of fertile land in their hands, as well as countless social resources and personal connections.
soon……
Wang Jing and others were able to find out some real inside stories. This was the most valuable information, and it was also one of the key reasons why the aristocratic families were able to dominate the common people in Guizhou for a long time without being overtaken by them.
Li Er mobilized these troops to open up the South China Sea!
…
After learning the news, Wang Jing, Pei Ji and the others naturally quickly called each other for a meeting.
But in this case...
When I study it, I feel very surprised.
Why did Li Er draw so many troops from Northern Xinjiang to do this?
Of course, it is not strange to talk about exploring the South China Sea.
After all, this is what Li Er spends a lot of money on, and anyway, this foolish king takes it very seriously.
However, no matter how much attention is paid to the South China Sea...
But Northern Xinjiang has to be defended, right? This is too strange.
In order to exploit the South China Sea and obtain benefits, a large number of troops were mobilized from places with prominent military conflicts, which can even be said to be military hotspots.
Would ordinary people do such a thing? After all, going to the South China Sea is to seek wealth, but stationing in northern Xinjiang is to save life, okay?
Although Li Er is not a good person, this statement mainly means that Li Er is not a kind person. This guy is very ruthless in punishing Zhongliang - such as the big guys here.
But it really doesn’t make sense to say that he didn’t have the brains to seek his own death.
Of course, after all, Li Er has always given people the impression that he can wield troops like a god and is invincible. If this guy really plans to rely on his own ability to use 30,000 troops to scare Goguryeo, then it is not necessarily possible...
