Chapter 61 The generals who can destroy the country, I have a lot of Tang Dynasty
Du Xian is a literati and has a very strong scholarly atmosphere.
But the literati of the Tang Dynasty were different from other dynasties.
Some literati in the Tang Dynasty had a strong idea of joining the army, so the Tang Dynasty's Biansai poems and the literati who abandoned literature and followed the military were the most numerous in Chinese history.
Du Xian was born in Puyang Du, Ming Jing and the first, successively served as Wuzhou to join the army, Zheng County Lieutenant, Dali Commentator, Kaiyuan four years, he was reappointed to supervise the imperial history, and to the west of the audit of Tuntian affairs.
This time he went to the Western Regions, Du Xian was infected by the pride of the Western Regions, abandoned literature and followed the military, and finally served as the deputy capital protector of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate and the envoy of the Western Section.
Now that he has entered the prime minister with military merits, although he has returned to civilian work, his blood is still hot, and he is looking forward to creating a Tang Dynasty with military merits far superior to those of Taizong and Gaozong under his own governance.
Therefore, as soon as Du Xian heard that Yu Wenrong's words had the meaning of "putting Ma Nanshan", the whole person was furious, and he did not hesitate to accuse him in person.
"Yuwen Shangshu, since Emperor Taizong, my dynasty has always attached equal importance to civil and military affairs. I am a Tang Dynasty god and cover the world, how can I enjoy the truth of peace? Since Shangshu understands that warlike will perish, he naturally also understands what it means to forget war and be dangerous. Reducing military spending and quelling the war, in case it leads to the exhaustion of the frontier and the invasion of thieves, who will bear this fault? ”
When Du Xian said Yuwen Shangshu again, he deliberately accentuated his tone.
When no one in Chang'an thought that the new prime minister was Yu Wenrong, Du Xian inexplicably came to cut off his beard.
The two were political enemies, and they had this kind of grudge, so they argued mercilessly.
Yuwen Rong's face really changed slightly, but he still kept his senses and said: "But now it is heavy on martial arts and light on literature, doesn't Du Xiang listen to Emperor Wu of Han's edict?" The Han Dynasty was in social and economic decay due to years of war, and the Second Emperor Wenjing lightly dismissed the meager endowment, and respected the Huang Lao's governance and the rest of the people, so that the people of the world had no internal and external affairs, and the world was governed. But after Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty succeeded to the throne, he fought for many years, so that there was a void in the sea and the population was halved. Does Du Xiang want me to follow in the footsteps of the Tang Dynasty? ”
As he spoke, he said passionately, "What is great virtue? Yanwu Xiuwen, return to the horse in the sun of Huashan, herd cattle in the field of the peach forest, show the world to obey, this party is a great virtue! ”
Yu Wenrong borrowed the words from "Shangshu Wucheng", and the full sentence is "The king comes from business, as for Feng, it is Yanwu Xiuwen, attributed to the horse in the sun of Huashan, herded cattle in the field of peach forest, and showed the world to obey." ”
It is an allusion to King Wu of Zhou's war.
After King Wu of Zhou crusaded against the king of Zhou, the horse was put into the South Mountain, and the swords and guns were put into storage, so that the five grains were abundant, and the people were happy.
Du Xian said without changing his face: "Yuwen Shangshu and don't hear about the rebellion of the three eunuchs? ”
Compared with quoting scriptures, Du Xian Ming Sutra and the first, it is the champion Lang, and his talent is better than Yu Wenrong, and he said casually: "King Wu of Zhou put Ma Nanshan, what is the result?" Uncle Guan, Uncle Cai, and Uncle Huo rebelled together, and Wu Geng, the son of King Xu, rebelled when he saw the opportunity. Fortunately, Zhou Gong was virtuous and virtuous, and formed a crusade of soldiers and horses. After the victory of the Duke of Zhou, he learned the previous lesson, and sealed his younger brother Uncle Kang to the center of the original Shang king's rule, with Chaoge as the capital, and there were eight divisions of troops, so that the world could be peaceful. It can be seen that there is not enough strength, how can the world be peaceful! ”
"Well said!"
Pei Min stroked his palms and praised.
Yu Wenrong's words made him very uncomfortable to listen to, so he was also ready to argue with him.
But then he found that Du Xian's ability to quote scriptures and classics was much better than Yu Wenrong's, and he didn't need to do it himself.
Who is Zhou Gongdan?
The idol that Confucius admired most in his life, what Confucius wanted in politics all his life was to restore the Zhou rites.
The Zhou rites were formulated by the Duke of Zhou.
Yu Wenrong's face was cloudy for a while.
"Okay, this is a matter of things, if something happens, everyone will discuss and discuss with a friendly person, why bother arguing so red-faced?"
The peacemaker Yuan Qianyao gave full play to the value of suppressing existence, and said: "What do you think about what Yuwen Shangshu said? ”
Pei Min said directly: "For the military affairs, I believe that no one is more qualified to speak than me, so let me say it......"
Li Yuanhong wanted to speak, cheer for Yu Wenrong, and make a statement in advance, but when he heard Pei Min's words, he instantly shut up.
No problem!
Who in the world today is more qualified to speak in military affairs than Pei Min?
Unless Li Jing crawls out of the tomb.
"In fact, Yuwen Shangshu's words still have some truth, the war situation in the Northeast has indeed had a great impact on the economy of our dynasty, and we can't sit idly by."
Pei Min's first sentence directly made many of the officials in the political hall dumbfounded.
Especially Yu Wenrong and Du Xian......
The former never thought that Pei Min would support him, and the latter was even more confused, how could his idol help outsiders speak?
Pei Min never meant to be the leader of the radical faction, but Du Xian directly regarded him as the boss of the radical faction.
As for the old boss Wang Hui, let him ignore it.
"That's not how wars are fought, and that's not how soldiers are used!"
Pei Min said what he had been holding back for a long time today.
In the past, Pei Min was the military commander of the Great West, so he could not and was not qualified to ask about the war situation in the Great Northeast and question Zhang Shouqi's strategy for using troops.
The hand is too deep, even if he is not selfish, even if he is the emperor Li Longji, he may not think too much.
Today, he thinks that he is the minister of state, so he naturally has the right to intervene.
"Killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred yourself, it's just nonsense!"
"For more than ten years, the accumulated military expenses have accumulated into a lot, which is enough for me to launch two wars similar to the previous ones to break through Tibet and retreat from Arabia. spent so much military spending, but it didn't even get a small Bohai country. If you say something good, you are incompetent, and if you don't hear it, you are still incompetent. ”
You must know that Pei Min fought in the previous battle for nearly two years, and all the troops in the northwest were mobilized, with more than 200,000 soldiers and horses.
Pei Min didn't understand the situation in the Northeast, but he spent so much financial and material resources to convey good news all day long, but there was no substantial progress.
That is, Li Longji, who is so happy, can tolerate it......
"In my opinion, the solution is nothing more than two points: either send a letter to the Bohai State and ask him to apologize and surrender, or give Zhang Shouqi an order to let him destroy the Bohai State in a short period of time and completely eliminate the war in the Northeast. Only in this way can the Northeast be truly stable. ”
As soon as he heard that there was going to be a war again, Li Yuanhong hurriedly said: "The Bohai Kingdom is located in the Sumo Water Basin, with the Sumo Yan as the top, the terrain there is treacherous, and it belongs to the mountain and forest tribal country, which is not easy to fight. Pei Xiang is inevitably a little difficult for strongmen......"
Pei Min said unceremoniously: "Li Xiang's words are wrong. What mountain tribes? What does it mean to be strong? No matter how difficult it is, it is difficult to break the Luozhen Valley, and no matter how dangerous it is, it is dangerous to pass the Kunlun Mountain? ”
"My Tang Erlang is the most heroic and invincible, Hou Junji is the leader, he can gnaw ice and drink blood, and rush out of the wasteland where there are no birds and beasts for two thousand miles. Gao Xianzhi was able to conquer Kunlun Mountain, why couldn't Zhang Shouqi overcome a Songhua River? ”
"If he can't do it, it's easy. Three-legged people are not easy to find, and the generals who can destroy the country, I have a lot of Datang. ”
