Chapter 343: Undercurrent, No Money

As Shu An plunged headlong into the study of gunpowder, the entire Chang'an also had an undercurrent.

Because Li Shimin has already acted, it can be said that as soon as he mentioned the dispatch of troops to the grassland, Li Shimin's face was very excited.

In order to formulate a complete plan for a few days in a row, the main force this time fell on Xue Rengui's head unexpectedly.

Of course, it is not that other princes are not fighting, but because of surprise.

If you want to know the words of the mobilization of troops and horses in other places, then it will definitely arouse Jieli's awareness.

On the contrary, this new army has not been established for a long time, and many people do not even know about it until now.

If you march carefully, you will definitely be able to take the Turks by surprise.

Of course, there are also the results that Xue Rengui took the lead in proposing before, which can be regarded as a reward.

"Rengui, this time I also made a lot of determination."

After all the ministers left, Li Shimin also deliberately left Xue Rengui to say quietly.

You must know that Li Shimin not only wants to set a trap for Jieli, but also wants to wait for the failure of the Turkic raids to directly send troops to the grassland.

Directly defeating the Turks in one fell swoop is Li Shimin's idea, so the success or failure of Xue Rengui's first step determines many things.

If Xue Rengui hadn't achieved much results, then maybe the plan would have changed.

"The minister will live up to His Majesty's love!"

Xue Rengui's eyes flickered and he said firmly, he also knew the importance of this time.

The two of them said a lot of words, on the one hand, the emperor was a heart-warming move.

It can be said that this time Li Shimin is to deepen Xue Rengui's loyalty.

The current Xue Rengui is naturally no exception, and he was said by Li Shimin to be enthusiastic.

If you count it, Xue Rengui is definitely the top in terms of ability, but in terms of emotional intelligence, it is now considered a hard injury.

If it is replaced by the eldest grandson Wuji, then he will know His Majesty's inner thoughts for the first time, and estimate how many fluctuations there are in his heart.

It wasn't until almost dusk that Li Shimin asked Xue Rengui to be sent away.

Obviously, Xue Rengui also couldn't stay in Chang'an for a few days, the reason is very simple, it's autumn now.

In late autumn or before winter, then the alien race will inevitably go south to plunder.

Therefore, this also requires Xue Rengui's new army to also be launched, otherwise the time will definitely not be able to catch up.

And after sending Xue Rengui away, Li Shimin couldn't help but show a look of satisfaction on his face.

Undoubtedly, Xue Rengui's posture made him very satisfied, and in the face of those old foxes, Li Shimin couldn't get any bargains.

On the contrary, in Xue Rengui, Li Shimin found a long-lost sense of achievement.

"It's a pity, if Cheng Qian is at Xue Rengui's age, I don't know what will happen?"

Li Shimin muttered softly, obviously there is harm only when there is comparison, thinking of his son who is not angry, this emperor has some gloom in his heart.

To know that Xue Rengui is only four years older than Li Chengqian, thinking of Gao Ming four years later, it is obvious that Li Shimin does not think that he can compare to Xue Rengui.

"Maybe there is a little hope for Qingque's words."

There was a soft murmur in the darkness, but unfortunately this voice was destined to be impossible.

Otherwise, it will definitely cause a storm that will sweep the entire court.

At the same time, when Xue Rengui returned to the mansion, Laifu had already waited for a long time.

Mainly because of the previous incident with Su Lie and others, because of Du Yun's relationship, it was difficult for Shu Crazy Tiger to come forward.

Shu An's words are busy making gunpowder, and there is only one suitable candidate left.

"Sect Leader Su is coming, that's great."

After Xue Rengui heard the housekeeper's words, a hint of joy appeared on his face and he said loudly.

Although most of the selection of the new army has little to do with Xue Rengui, it is still very easy for Xue Rengui to stuff one or two people.

Not to mention that this is Su Lie, Xue Rengui knows the roots, and this one is exactly what the new army needs now.

Of course, for Shu Madhu's refusal, Xue Rengui also had some wry smiles.

Because Shu Crazy Tiger can be regarded as a fierce general even if he is in the army, but being able to get Su Lie, Xue Rengui is already very satisfied.

"Thank you this time, teacher."

After understanding the cause and effect, Xue Rengui did not forget the role of his teacher.

.......

Time went on, and except for a few people, no one knew that Xue Rengui's new army had secretly begun to move towards the border town in batches.

Similarly, the entire Chang'an began to transport grain and grass with more vehicles, of course, if you don't observe carefully, then you won't find this anomaly at all.

Of course, even if this anomaly is discovered, Li Shimin will not be found to have any big moves.

Autumn nights are getting cooler, but the palace is brightly lit.

Li Shimin, the eldest grandson Wuji and other ministers gathered together, but their faces were a little unsightly at this time.

"What, so soon the treasury ran out of money?"

Especially this emperor's face was very gloomy at this time, even Li Shimin didn't expect that he would run out of money so soon.

"Your Majesty, because this matter is too sudden, the treasury has not prepared much money."

The eldest grandson Wuji took the lead in explaining that he should know that the soldiers and horses have not moved, and the grain and grass go first.

If there is a war to be fought, Datang now has to prepare at least two months in advance.

Because now that the Tang Dynasty is in ruins, there are a lot of places to use money, and these two months are just to let the treasury squeeze out a sum of money for sending troops.

However, this time, suddenly, there was no time to prepare at all, and even the eldest grandson Wuji had some helplessness on his face.

Because even he didn't expect that the household department would not be able to allocate any money, and in the end, the ball was kicked back into the hands of this emperor.

"Lord Eldest Sun is right."

"Your Majesty, because we have to send troops, we also have to consider the winter, whether it is food needs or heating supplies, these things must be prepared."

Du Ruhui also said that this time they have a common position on the issue of money.

Since the treasury has no money, then it is expected that this emperor will take the money.

However, as the two spoke, Li Shimin's face was even more ugly, because he seemed to have seen the thoughts of the auxiliary machine and others.

It's just that he paid for it, and now it can be said that he has to send it.

It's just that the key thing is that Li Shimin is really poor, and most of his money is to buy food because of the training of elite soldiers before.

Although he earned a lot of money because of Kemari, he was able to pay a lot of money because of the food for the soldiers and the subsidies for the poor that he had ordered before.

In fact, Li Shimin has overdrawn a large part of his money, and of course, Li Shimin does not know the concept of overdraft.

At this time, Li Shimin was really poor, and even this emperor didn't know where to go to give birth to a large amount of money for a while.
