Speaking of other things in the DPRK, Su Dawei didn't know much about it and was not interested.

But when it comes to the Liaodong Peninsula, it's not sleepy.

What's more, the current Xiongjin Governor Liu Renliang is Su Dawei's successor.

It is also Su Dawei who thinks that he has outstanding ability and has the ability to sit firmly in the situation in Baekje.

Yesterday at a private gathering between Su Dawei and the brothers, Su Dawei also specially asked about Baekje and Liaodong, and listened to Gao Dalong, Zhou Liang, and An Wensheng say that Liu Renliang on the Baekje side did a good job.

Many of Su Dawei's strategies left behind in office are being resolutely implemented.

Specifically, it is to continue to divide and disturb Silla.

Suppress the Baekje situation.

Wai Wai Kokushima.

At the same time, he also cooperated with the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate Gaokan to put pressure in the direction of Goguryeo and maintain the local situation.

Suppress the remnants of Goguryeo who are nostalgic for the old country.

The situation is indeed stable.

Liu Renliang did not complain or complain to Su Dawei through An Wensheng, Zhou Liang and others.

First, An Wensheng and they are mainly responsible for the direction of the Japanese state.

Second, Liu Renliang is a square person, in other words, he abides by the way of being a minister in advance and retreat.

Su Dawei is just a former governor, so it is probably enough to let him know the current situation.

Specific difficulties will never be mentioned to Su Dawei.

Instead, he went to the court in a formal way and asked for support from Li Zhi, the Son of Heaven.

Su Dawei also faintly expected this.

He had said on various occasions before, to Xiao Siye of the Ministry of War, and to An Wensheng and others, that the imperial court's rewards for meritorious soldiers are not as good as before.

Now it is difficult to recruit government soldiers, and in the long run, it will cause great damage to the combat strength of the Tang army.

In fact, through several foreign campaigns, Su Dawei has clearly felt the decline in the quality of soldiers.

Today's Tang Dynasty soldiers, although they still maintain an invincible record to the outside world, only these generals who lead the troops can really feel it.

The Tang army is outside, and it is getting more and more difficult.

A large number of rangers were mixed in the army, Chang'an broke the household, criminals, and meritorious servicemen.

In the past, the proportion of good families declined rapidly.

The quality of combat is not as good as before.

In this case, the rewards of the imperial court still could not be received in time, and the service was overdue.

In the past, the war could be solved in half a year.

Nowadays, it is often a dozen years.

Even evil teenagers and people who have committed crimes and meritorious deeds cannot endure such a long battle, and they will not be able to pay compensation or rewards after the war.

Sooner or later, something big will happen!

In history, the Tang army was really defeated and almost completely annihilated, and it was not until the "Battle of Dafeichuan" between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo in the future.

World War I punctured the myth of Datang's undefeated.

After that, Siyi was shaken and rebellions broke out frequently.

It directly shook the "Tian Khan" and "tributary" systems of the Tang Dynasty.

It is all of this today that has led to such a bad result.

It's not just a certain general who lost his mind, which led to the defeat of Datang.

Rather, it's a combination of factors.

Among them, the root cause is from today's Tang Dynasty, and the rewards and punishments of the government and military system are becoming more and more lax.

Some of them collapsed because the system was fundamentally unchanged from environmental changes.

Some of them collapsed, but they obviously had a good system, but they gradually fell into disuse.

There is no law to follow.

Su Dawei was still looking down and thinking about the current situation of the government soldier system, and when he heard Gaozong in the palace cough a few times, he gasped and said, "Send ...... Liu Ren, the general of the right Weiwei, was willing to lead his troops across the sea to replace the old soldiers, and returned to the rails. ”

This is Li Zhi's answer.

Liu Renliang, the governor of Xiongjin, said that the soldiers were tired, the rewards were not in place, and the conscription was hard, and the imperial court said that the date when they could return to China was postponed again and again.

The court has no faith, and the soldiers want to return.

If this continues, the combat effectiveness will not be maintained.

Li Zhi is very simple, back, all back.

I sent Liu Ren to take your place.

As for the said reward......

Hehe.

Although Li Zhi's response solved some of the problems, it certainly did not solve all the problems of the soldiers stationed in Baekje.

Even evaded some questions.

Sending Liu Renyuan to take over is just repeating the situation encountered by Liu Renliang.

And from the bottom of my heart, although Liu Renyuan is good, his ability is slightly inferior to Liu Renliang, and whether he can stabilize the situation is really a big question mark.

Su Dawei was on the side, wanting to speak and stopping.

Shen Yin hesitated again and again, seeing that Li Zhi had a clerk and a living man around him and began to record, and a eunuch began to write the decree, he finally couldn't help it, stepped forward half a step, and raised his voice: "Your Majesty, please play if you have something to do." ”

Rustling......

The silkworm sound written by the brush is slightly paused.

All the voices in the hall seemed to be quiet for a moment.

There were faintly several officials who cast questioning glances at Su Dawei.

and Li Zhi, who was sitting high in the hall, looked at Su Dawei with gloomy eyes.

There was obvious displeasure in those eyes.

Su Dawei bowed his head, with both his impulsive apprehension and a sense of relief in his heart.

If it is only for self-preservation, then it is in his best interest not to speak.

But he is not a ruthless person, and Liu Renliang and all the soldiers on Baekje have a robe with him.

Now it is easy for Li Zhi to transfer them back, but how to calculate the blood and sweat paid?

Shedding blood and tears for the country, will An Neng be rewarded heavily?

The court has no faith, how can it be said in the future to mobilize the Tang Dynasty soldiers to move forward and expand the territory for the Heavenly Khan.

There are some words, the bureaucrat who is a thief, can shut up.

But people with faith and enthusiasm can never sit idly by.

Su Dawei admitted that the blood in his heart had not yet cooled.

All the calmness, composure, that is just the maturity brought to him by the experience, it does not mean that his soul is also silent.

Fang was a little impulsive.

But he doesn't regret it.

Silent waiting, as if a century was long.

Finally, Li Zhi spoke: "What do you want to say?" ”

The almost frozen atmosphere eased slightly.

Su Dawei forked his hands and said: "The minister used to be the governor of Xiongjin and was familiar with the affairs of Liaodong, so he ......."

Li Zhi's gaze turned cold: "The important ministers are here, how can you interject?" ”

It's the truth.

Although Su Dawei is a lord under the fourth grade, his real power is far from enough.

In this kind of court-level recital, he can only be regarded as a small character, and according to etiquette, he can only listen with his ears.

Before Li Zhi spoke, he opened his mouth in vain, and he was suspected of being disrespectful.

What's more, Li Zhi obviously didn't want to discuss this topic.

In the hall, Hao Chujun coughed lightly: "Your Majesty is angry, Su Shaoqing has been in the army for a long time, and he has been in Baekje before, and he has a lot of merit, since he is here, it seems that it is necessary to ask his opinion." ”

While speaking, Hao Chujun glanced in the direction of Su Dawei.

The emotion at that glance made Su Dawei understand.

That's a kind of "reciprocating the peach".

Last time, you helped me deal with Li Yifu, this time the old man said a word for you, and the favor was returned, which can be regarded as two clear.

Hao Chujun is about to take over as the Dongtai Shizhong and become the new "left minister".

Li Zhi still cared a little about his words.

After a moment of silence, Li Zhi said, "Say it, I listen." ”

In these words, there is also some displeasure.

Su Dawei knew very well where the root of the current problem of the government soldiers was.

Obviously, Li Zhi was avoiding it and didn't want to mention it.

But the words have been mentioned, like an arrow on the string, and they have to be sent.

Su Dawei saluted again, and said stubbornly: "Your Majesty, I returned to Chang'an from Liaodong last year, and some words have been in the hearts of the ministers, and I don't vomit or ......be unhappy."

The eyes of all the ministers in the palace, including the eunuchs and palace maids, and even the Tang Emperor Li Zhi, fell on Su Dawei, who walked out of the train and stood on His Royal Highness.

I only heard his voice echoing in the Yanying Palace.

"The minister is young and shallow, and his knowledge is not as good as that of Zhu Qing, so there are some questions that I can't figure out all the time......"

Su Dawei raised his head, and from his young but resolute face, a pair of dark eyes were as bright as stars.

"The minister doesn't understand, why can't the imperial court build trust in the government soldiers, why can't it reward those soldiers who have made meritorious contributions, why can't it compensate and commemorate the soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country as it did in the Taizong Dynasty, why can't the soldiers be given honors and the meritorious generals given land?

There is also the abolition of Ma Zheng, the promotion of young generals and the ......"

"Enough!"

Li Zhi snorted violently, and his voice reverberated in the hall.

Everyone's hearts jumped.

Then I heard Li Zhi's heart-rending coughing and wheezing.

"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty! Please take care of your health, Your Majesty. ”

Su Dawei was startled, and hurriedly knelt down on one knee to plead guilty.

He was really afraid that Li Zhi would be so angry with himself that he would burst his blood vessels and have a cerebral hemorrhage.

Seeing that Li Zhi's entire fat face had turned purple-red, almost the color of pig liver.

That's a sick color.

The ministers in the palace, led by Hao Chujun and Xu Jingzong, hurriedly bowed to Li Zhi in unison and said, "I hope Your Majesty will take care of the dragon's body." ”

A group of eunuchs and attendants in the palace were busy for a long time, serving Li Zhi ginseng tea, and soothing his chest, which finally made Li Zhiping accept his anger.

The flush gradually faded and returned to normal.

Li Zhi gasped and waved his hand to drive the eunuchs around him away.

He supported the armrests of the big chair with both hands, leaned forward slightly, and stared at Su Dawei condescendingly like an eagle falcon with an awe-inspiring gaze.

Su Dawei knelt on one knee and clasped his hands into fists.

Sweat oozes from his forehead.

The silence in the air, the solemnity, made everyone aware of the dangerous aura.

"I don't need to explain all the major national events to everyone."

Li Zhi said solemnly, and slowly: "However, since you raise this matter, I will discuss it with you." ”

After speaking, he gasped for a moment and waved his hand: "Xu Jingzong, Hao Chujun, Shangguan Yi, and Su Dawei will stay for the four of them, and the rest of the courtiers will temporarily retreat." ”

"Yui."

The rest of the ministers in the palace couldn't help but look at each other, but this kind of thing could not be asked.

Knowing that Li Zhi had something to say, he was only willing to talk to these four people.

The ministers have their own tastes in their hearts.

After saluting Li Zhi, the fish rushed out.

In the Yanying Palace, it became even colder.

Li Zhi stroked his hand, rubbed it gently, and said for a long time: "Su Dawei, you can get up." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Su Dawei stood up and wiped his forehead with his sleeve: "The minister is panicked." ”

"Are you scared?"

Li Zhi sneered: "I have never seen anyone bolder than you." ”
