Chapter 1221: Edict of Declaration of War
1221. Edict of Declaration of War
In the Liangyi Palace, the well-fed ministers and envoys did not disperse, and they were all summoned here by Li Shimin.
Looking at the puzzled crowd, Li Pojun was also a little curious, isn't the Yuan Ri Dynasty meeting over, is there any other activity here.
"Uncle, what is this going to do? What else did the saints bring us together? Li Pojun squeezed to the front and asked the eldest grandson Wuji.
The eldest grandson Wuji smiled when he heard this, "Declare war, deterrence."
The short four words spit out from the mouth of the eldest grandson fat man, Li Pojun was stunned for a moment, declaring war? To whom to declare war, it should be Tuguhun and deterrence...... Glancing at the curious and restless envoys of various countries, Li Pojun also had some understanding.
Fang Xuanling also looked at those envoys, his eyes were slightly blind, as if a fierce color flashed, and said: "The blood on the grassland has dried up, and these jackals are afraid that they will forget the power of the Celestial Empire."
Fang Xuanling is not a corrupt Confucian, he is the military adviser who assists Li Shimin to pacify the world, and these Siyi countries stir up trouble at the border from time to time, which also makes this Tang Zaifu very annoyed.
"When the puppet is angry, splashing blood in five steps, and the emperor is angry, it will bleed thousands of miles", Du Ruhui on the side also shook his head and sighed.
"Haha, if they are not honest, they should be killed, kill one with a river of blood, kill one with respect from all countries, and see which one dares to jump in front of Datang again."
Cheng Zhijie's thick hair was upside down, and his yellow teeth were wide open, and he was also screwing a smile.
Li Pojun also smiled, and he understood his father's trick. Looking at this group of curious and excited envoys from various countries, Li Pojun felt funny, this is like a press conference and a declaration of war ceremony in later generations, in front of the envoys of various countries, it is the announcement of war, which is indeed very deterrent.
Sure enough, not long after, Li Shimin changed his dress, from the Yuan Ri Dynasty to the crown of the Wu Ben crown, this Wu Ben crown was originally the hat invented by Zhao Guo Hu Fu during the Warring States Period, suitable for military generals to charge, and later in the Qin and Han dynasties, it was worn by senior military generals, and developed to the Sui and Tang dynasties, which was not only limited to military generals wearing, up to the emperor, down to officials, on some occasions, can be worn.
This martial crown is very majestic, although he is not wearing armor, but Li Shimin is dressed in a suit, and his waist hangs the sword of the Son of Heaven, and he is a majestic general, at this moment, it seems that the person is no longer the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, but the king of the Tang Dynasty who fought in all directions and pacified the world has returned.
Cheng Zhijie and others were also shocked when they saw Li Shimin's momentum, and they sang and worshipped, and their voices resounded through the hall.
Li Pojun was stunned, and he bowed down, not to mention, he was worthy of being the horse god king who went to the battlefield in person, this body was full of appearance, very majestic, and the envoys of various countries were also prostrate on the ground to meet the emperor of the Celestial Empire.
After seeing the ceremony, Li Shimin did not sit down, his eyes were bright, and he did not feel tired after staying up all night and presiding over a day of court meetings.
"Edict!" Two short words, sonorous and powerful.
"The edict said: I am the heir to the Hongye, think about the road to the road, the arch hangs down, in the seven years, the style of Wende. Tranquil District, Wai Jun Chang, the sea surface of the canal, far away, no thought. And Tugu Hun Erxiao Fan, the right side of the solid river, the land is not far away for thousands of miles, the people do not make 10,000, do not measure their strength, do not sympathize with their people, wantonly refuse to die, and resist the kingdom......
Every time I send a pedestrian, I will give an edict to Tibet, and lead its messengers, and I will prescribe the good way and persuade him to be peaceful, so that the realm will be safe and peaceful......
Today, the book is very proud, detaining me and making people, inside and outside hundreds of bureaucrats. Huayi Zhaoshu, with one heart and grievances, is willing to punish. It is advisable to take the opportunity of hanging and felling to show the eagle's trembling ambition, drive the long period, and exhaust its nest. The sin stop Tuyuhun Khan's faint lord, and the one or two evil ministers of the Tianzhu King, the rest of the tribes, all have nothing to ask. Kill the fierce and stop the violence, and call it my will.
With this "Edict of Tuguhun", it will be announced to the world, and the salty envoy will hear it".
This is actually an edict declaring war, an edict proclaiming to the world, to reach every state and county, this is the Tang Dynasty officially starting a war against the northwest country Tuyuhun!
The ministers of the Tang Dynasty are okay, after all, the imperial court has already issued a holy decree, and all departments are actively cooperating with the western expedition, and it is no secret that it is no secret to ask for Tuguhun, but some officials in remote state capitals do not know about it, and now they don't have much reaction when they hear it.
A small country, why not destroy it!
But those envoys of Fanguo were frightened, this ...... The Celestial Empire is actually going to destroy Tuyuhun!
Gaochang, Qiuzi, Tubo, Nanzhao, Linyi, Wakou, Goguryeo and other envoys are all shocked, you must know that although Tuyuhun is a small country in the eyes of the Tang Dynasty, but among these countries, it is a first-class power, Tuyuhun is the country of the fierce Xianbei people, the Xianbei people used to be able to enter the Central Plains ruthless role, superb riding and shooting, extraordinary bravery, Tuyuhun has hundreds of thousands of string control warriors, but hanging Gaochang, Nanzhao these small countries.
In addition to the shock, the envoys of various countries were a little frightened, for fear of provoking the displeasure of the first heavenly khan, and by the way destroyed their own country, they all knelt on the ground to show their loyalty, and the same was true of the powerful Tibetan envoys.
Fortunately, the Tuyuhun envoy has been repatriated in advance, otherwise I am afraid that the envoy would be under this pressure.
The edict of declaring war, once issued, the postmen of Chang'an City are speeding in all directions, through more than 1,000 waterway post houses in the country, the "Edict of Tuguhun" will be spread throughout the country, from the capital Chang'an to the Tang Dynasty 360 states, 1,500 counties, proclamation to the world, Xian envoy heard, is to let the people of the whole country know, the Tang Dynasty is going to war against Tuyuhun!
And as soon as the edict was issued, it officially entered a state of war, unlike the previous crusade against the Eastern Turks, Li Jingqi attacked and occupied Xiangcheng and began to start a war, which was a war of surprise and unpreparedness.
Li Jing, the commander of the Xihai Road march, together with Hou Junji, the head of the Jishi Road March, Li Daozong, the head of the Shanshan Road March, and other six army troops, Su Dingfang, the general of the Left Guard, and Xue Wanche, the general of the Zuotun Guard, recruited a total of 140,000 soldiers and horses from more than 12 guards and more than 600 military governments in the world, and swore to march westward.
Shangyuan Festival, that is, the Lantern Festival, this day should be three days of night, the day of the whole country to celebrate, Chang'an City is full of lanterns, lanterns are hung high, there are tall and bright lantern wheels, lamp trees and lanterns everywhere, even if it is broad daylight, it is also a fire tree and silver flowers, lamps and lights, like that heaven on earth, but there is a bit of solemnity in this joyful atmosphere.
Mingde Gate, the south gate of Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty, the princes and nobles gathered, the peddlers and pawns stopped, as far as the eyes looked, they were several phalanxes under the Chang'an City, Daxu hunting, the flag covered the sky, the swords and guns were numerous, the light was shining, and tens of thousands of Tang troops gathered in Gyeonggi gathered here to swear.
In the eyes of everyone, the Tang Emperor Li Shimin climbed the Mingde Gate Tower, looking at the sharp division at his feet, Li Shimin was ambitious, at this moment, he tasted the feeling of the military parade again, how a cool word.
Seeing that he was about to speak, Wang Jingzhong sensibly presented the iron horn, and brought over a stepping wooden stool, Li Shimin stood up, his mouth facing the horn.
