Chapter 652: No Peace
652.
No summation
Seeing that the ministers also bowed their heads helplessly, Li Shimin also knew that now, there is only one way to negotiate peace, after all, this is the absolute strength of the crushing, Chang'an soldiers are only tens of thousands, and the Turkic approaching people are tens of thousands, there is no way to fight hard, after all, the capital must not be lost, and the people who defend the Beijing division cannot be mobilized.
Gao Shilian in the hall gritted his teeth, and went straight out to worship and said, "Your Majesty, minister... He is willing to send an envoy to the enemy camp to probe the Turkic intentions."
Li Shimin was surprised when he heard this, looked at Gao Shilian, and then said directly: "The Turks are reckless and untrustworthy, Shilian Gong is a servant, a major minister of the Tang Dynasty, how can he take risks, forget it."
Gao Shilian raised his head when he heard this, and said bluntly: "The ministers eat the king, and the king's worries should be shared, as the saying goes, the two armies are at war, and if you don't cut the envoys, then Jie Lizhi is the second emperor of the Dao Martial Emperor, when you won't be so moral, please ask Your Majesty for permission."
Li Shimin was silent when he heard it, just thinking about it, there was a sound of footsteps in the empty side hall, and then only a hearty voice sounded, "This matter is not allowed."
Everyone raised their eyebrows when they heard this, who was so rampant, turned their heads to look, and saw Li Pojun entering the hall in a hurry, and it was what he said before he spoke.
It turned out that Li Pojun didn't sleep for a while in the Ganlu Palace, he woke up, and when he saw that he was actually wearing the emperor's coat, he couldn't help but be shocked, and his first reaction was that someone had harmed him, after all, this was an overstepping of the rules, but under inquiry, he was told by the chamberlain that it turned out that Li Shimin came back and saw that he was asleep, and put a coat on him. Li Pojun's heart warmed, and he went straight to the side hall of the Divine Dragon Palace, and as soon as he walked outside the hall, he was startled by Gao Shilian's loud voice.
"I have seen my father, and the princes are polite." Li Pojun bowed first, and Fang Du and the others also returned the salute, but they just thought about Li Pojun's four words, why His Royal Highness the Prince, who has always been gentle and humble, shouted these four words so strongly.
Li Shimin's face was calm, his brows furrowed, and he shouted, "What did you just say?" ”
"Father, it is absolutely impossible to send an envoy in the service, and it is even more impossible to negotiate peace, please make a clear decision from my father." Li Pojun bowed solemnly.
Li Shimin's brows furrowed even more fiercely when he heard this, while Fang Du and the others also frowned suspiciously.
"Shaft, do you know what you're talking about? National affairs, how can you be willful." Li Shimin snorted coldly, and Fang Du and the others also looked like they thought it was true.
Li Pojun also sighed, and was he angry? Sometimes you should be pushy, and when you should not compromise on everything.
If you make peace as in history and make an alliance between Weishui, it is true that you can buy time in order to accumulate strength, but this is undoubtedly a bad start, and it is also a heavy shame in history.
"Father, my lords, it is absolutely not feasible to seek peace, it will be left in the annals of history and ridiculed." Li Pojun said straightforwardly.
Li Shimin's face was even more gloomy when he heard this, and he slapped the desk straight, "Shaft, don't you know, I don't know, the current situation, can we fight?" ”
Li Pojun raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and Fang Du and the others saw that Li Shimin was angry and hurriedly bowed to the ground.
"Father, the child's intention is not to fight with it, maybe there is a way to make the Turks retreat without a fight, wouldn't it be better." Li Pojun said directly.
Everyone was surprised when they heard this, and Fang Xuanling also saluted straight and said: "According to His Highness's intentions, now that the strong army is pressing the realm, can you still win it by calculation?" ”
When Li Pojun heard this, he was also busy saluting and said: "Uncle Fang doesn't dare to say anything in front of him, but there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, so there is no need to plan for the worst first."
Everyone frowned and thought about it when they heard this, and then nodded in agreement, Hou Junji also said directly: "What His Royal Highness said is reasonable, there is no need to fight the worst plan first, Chang'an still has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, the city is strong and rich in food, and there is no power to fight, if it is peace without a fight, it will be too light, Your Majesty, please fight."
Hearing Hou Junji's words, Li Shimin's face was still as usual, and after a while, Li Shimin said bluntly: "Do you think that I don't want to fight, but have you thought about it, Chang'an is fine, but the prosperous places in Gyeonggi will definitely turn into scorched earth, and how can millions of subjects live in peace."
Everyone was silent when they heard this, Li Pojun nodded when he heard it, and then said: "There is no way to resolve it, the Turkic lone army went deep into the hinterland of my Tang Dynasty, which can be said to be attacked on all sides, Ayeke ordered the king of Qin in all states, and passed on the Duke of Weiguo, the Duke of England, Huo Guogong and other troops to return to the dynasty, and Chang'an raised a large army, stuck to the city, put on a posture of fighting to the death, and on the other hand, sent envoys to deal with the snake, then Jieli saw that it was useless, or could retreat."
Everyone listened, and each thought about it, "Your Majesty, what Your Highness is planning may be, but now that the Turks are pressing the city, everyone knows it, and it is already the people's hearts that are panicking, and for today's important task, it should be to stabilize the hearts of the military and the people of Chang'an", the head of the household department also said.
Li Shimin nodded when he heard this, and said bluntly: "The matter of Anmin will be handed over to the auxiliary machine."
The eldest grandson Wuji came out to receive the order, Li Shimin pondered for a moment again, and said directly: "What do you think of the prince's words?" ”
The ministers listened and thought about it, and finally Fang Xuanling came out and bowed directly: "Maybe you can try it."
"Your Majesty, please send an envoy to deal with the Turks." Gao Shilian asked for help again, this time even Li Pojun was surprised, this Gao Shilian is the prime minister, and the uncle of the queen's mother and the eldest grandson Wuji, that is a respected status, why do you want to be so active in taking risks, why do you want to be so active in making meritorious contributions, Li Pojun is a little suspicious.
Li Shimin's eyes narrowed when he heard this, but he shook his head and said: "Shilian is an important minister of the country, and there are many state affairs under his door, so you can't leave the center lightly, or entrust someone else." The central housekeeper Cen Wenwen is smart and modest, so let Jingren (Cen Wenwen character Jingren) go." After that, he beckoned to Wang Jingzhong on the side and said, "Chuan Cen text."
Wang Jingzhong answered the summons.
Li Shimin said again: "The military department must be in charge of Junji, deploy all gates, and stabilize the hearts of all guards.
Hou Junji, the secretary of the military department, also responded when he heard this, and finally Li Shimin looked at Li Pojun, pondered for a while, and said bluntly: "The prince has made a meritorious contribution to quelling the rebellion, and he will be rewarded after the Turkic soldiers retreat, and you will stay in the city honestly recently, don't go out of the city." In the end, Li Shimin was already stern.
Li Pojun's face turned bitter when he heard this, and he said bluntly: "Father, the Shence Army is still stationed in Cuiping Mountain outside the city."
Li Shimin waved his hand and said: "Junji, find a camp in the city for the Shence army to station."
Hou Junji also responded when he heard this, but he didn't think so, and said to Li Pojun: "Dare to ask His Highness the geometry of the personnel of the Shence Army?" It is good to divide the station".
