Chapter 44: Who Can Turn the Tide? (1st Update)

After Pei Lin got Li Yuan's approval, he looked at Xiao Yu and Feng Deyi murderously and said: "The first question, Xiao Xiangguo, Feng Shilang, since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, has never given up one city and one place, and now I want to give up the Liangzhou Governor's Mansion to rule the next nineteen states, eighty-four counties, Xiao Xiangguo, Feng Shilang, have you considered how much negative impact this move will have on Datang?" Today, when the Turks hit Liangzhou, we will give up Liangzhou, if we hit Lingzhou, we will give up Lingzhou, so may I ask, how many people will be convinced of a court that has lost its city and land and cannot shelter the people? To put it bluntly, once such a decision is made, it means that the imperial court is about to be lost, and the Tang Dynasty is about to lose the country. ”

Feng Deyi opened his mouth, looked at the murderous aura in Pei Lian's eyes, bowed his head and remained silent, while Xiao Yu was silent.

Pei Lin sneered: "What if Jieli is coming more violently than we imagined, and the encirclement of the Western Turks is tighter than expected, so that Jieli can't repel the enemy when he pours his troops south, and the rescue of Daduhu is cemented, what can we do at that time?" ”

Xiao Yu originally had a sensitivity and even rejection of Pei Lin due to his position, but he was silent at this time, because he was in favor of Pei Lin in terms of reasoning, and he also judged that Pei Lian's words were correct with his experience.

"It's because you can't do it both ways!" Xiao Yu said: "There must be a trade-off!" Use the main forces in one direction, and the other direction with perseverance and wisdom, but in advance be prepared to be determined to break the arm of a strong man! That's why I just said: give up Liangzhou and gather all the troops in China to resist the Turks? If you want to keep Liangzhou, Liangzhou can't keep it, you want to keep Guanzhong, and Guanzhong won't protect it, so what? ”

The ministers were dumbfounded.

Pei Lian's voice became louder and louder: "The third question, once Liangzhou is abandoned, how much time will it take for the soldiers and civilians of the 19th in Liangzhou to migrate, from Liangzhou to Guanzhong, the road is far away, if the Turks send cavalry to chase and kill?" Once the city is lost, how many of these millions of soldiers and civilians can move to Guanzhong? ”

Xiao Yu sighed and said, "If the Turks send cavalry to chase and kill, I'm afraid that there will be no one in the hundred who can successfully escape to Guanzhong." ”

Feng Deyi sighed: "If Li Daozong can hold Liangzhou for three months, that will be fine......"

Li Yuan suddenly spoke, with a sarcastic tone: "Three months? ”

Everyone was stunned, and Li Yuan looked at Feng Deyi: "Feng Lun, you can't help but think too highly of the Taoist Sect!" He only guarded for three days, and then he sent out an urgent ...... for 800 miles."

Li Yuan sighed: "I'm afraid that at this moment, Liangzhou is already in danger, and I'm afraid I won't be able to hold out for three months." ”

Li Shimin, who had been silent, suddenly said: "Father, the son asks for his life, and he is willing to lead an army of 50,000 to rescue Liangzhou." ”

As soon as these words came out, this was really shocking.

In this time and space, because Li Shimin did not like the original historical time and space, first pacified Liu Wuzhou, then destroyed Wang Shichong, and then defeated Dou Jiande, the four battles against the princes of the world all ended in complete victory. However, Li Shimin had the reputation of being defeated in every battle at this time, and even Li Yuanji's performance on the battlefield was more dazzling than Li Shimin.

As soon as Li Shimin finished saying this, the ministers muttered in their hearts.

"Oh, little ancestor...... Don't toss anymore, Datang has this little bit of family background, if you lose another game and lose 100,000 troops, Datang will really have no hope! ”

Of course, this is just thinking about it in my heart, and no one really dares to say it in front of Li Shimin, if this is said, it will offend Li Shimin to death.

However, there was only a moment of silence. Suddenly, three voices: "No!" The voices rang out one after another.

The ministers looked.

I saw that the people who said this were Li Jiancheng, Li Yuan, and Xiao Yu.

Of course, the reasons for these three people not to allow Li Shimin to leave Liangzhou are different. First of all, Li Jiancheng, as his elder brother, really didn't want Li Shimin to go to Liangzhou to die, because Li Shimin had no experience in fighting the Turks at all.

Li Yuan's mind is different from Li Jiancheng, he really doesn't worry about Li Shimin, once Li Shimin leaves Chang'an, I'm afraid there will be no one to check and balance Li Jiancheng.

Xiao Yu's consideration was out of public intentions, because Datang really couldn't afford to lose.

Li Shimin thought that Li Jiancheng would reject him, and he also thought that Li Yuan would reject him, but he didn't expect Xiao Yu to reject him, and stood on the opposite side of him clearly.

Li Shimin smiled bitterly: "Erchen is sincere. I hope that my father will be fulfilled. If Liangzhou is not protected, the people of the world will die with flesh and blood! ”

Li Shimin said it tragically, and the ministers were also moved.

"The point is, it doesn't help. If one person dies, the Turkic soldiers can be retreated! Xiao Yu said generously: "Why do you regret this body? The question is, when King Qin went to Liangzhou, how sure was he that the siege of Liangzhou would be resolved? ”

Li Shimin was speechless. Hundreds of thousands of Western Turkic cavalry, the Western Turks who fought the Sassanid Empire without any power to fight back, in fact, whether in terms of national strength or military strength, the Western Turks and the Eastern Turks are actually not of the same magnitude. The point is that the Turks did not actually have a concept of great unification, and neither of them thought about the merger of East and West.

Li Shimin didn't speak, Xiao Yu said to Li Jiancheng and Li Yuan: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Prince, the old minister thinks that Chen Yuma should be summoned into the palace overnight!" ”

"Chen Ying......"

When Xiao Yu heard Chen Ying's name, the ministers exclaimed.

When it comes to dealing with the Turks, in the Tang Dynasty, no one is more experienced than Chen Ying. At the beginning, Chen Ying only relied on the right guard of the East Palace, and the strength of the four Zhichong Mansions, not only relieved the siege of Lingzhou in one fell swoop, but also beat the Eastern Turks without the slightest temper in Lingzhou for more than a year. The wounded began to be Khan, and the four defeats were Luo Khan, and the name of Chen Ying was proposed, which could make children stop crying in Turkic.

The ministers suddenly realized: "Yes, you can summon Chen Yuma into the palace!" ”

Li Jiancheng's eyes lit up suddenly when he heard this. In fact, he already had a plan to let Chen Ying out of Liangzhou, let Chen Ying out of Liangzhou, and be in charge of the nineteen states of Liangzhou. Now Chen Ying is the founding duke of the country, the general of the official residence town army, whether it is qualifications or prestige, it is enough.

The key is that now Chen Ying is also half of the Li family, and he can rest assured.

Li Yuan nodded and said, "It's just Princess Pingyang......"

"The family and the country are all over the world, Princess Pingyang has already realized the good intentions of her father!" Li Jiancheng groaned: "Erchen proposed that the governor of Youzhou should be changed to Lingzhou, and Xue Wanche, the governor of Jingzhou, would go out of Youzhou, Hebei...... Hebei, let Li Yi out of town. And the state let Li Ji out of town. ”

Li Jiancheng didn't mention this fork, but when Li Jiancheng mentioned it, Li Yuan was instantly shocked into a cold sweat. Unconsciously, Li Jiancheng's subordinates are already full of talents. Chen Ying, Feng Li, Li Ji, Li Yi, Luo Shixin, Yang Wengan, Duan Zhigan, Zhang Shigui, and Wei Wenzhong, Li Yuan didn't even think about it and refused directly.

Are you kidding.

Chen Ying, Li Ji, Li Yi, Xue Wanche, and Wei Chigong are all from the East Palace, once Li Jiancheng's proposal is really implemented, Li Jiancheng can control nearly half of Li Tang's military power.

In case of......

Li Yuan would never allow that to happen.

Li Yuan didn't speak for a long time, and Pei Lin instantly understood Li Yuan's intentions.

He immediately stood up and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, the top priority is to invite Chen Juma into the palace to discuss matters, and listen to what he has to say!" ”

Li Shimin was depressed at this time.

However, he was depressed and couldn't help it.

Because he will be defeated in every battle, everyone dare not have any expectations for Li Shimin.

But Chen Ying is different, what he is best at is to win more with less.

Chen Shuda raised an objection: "Your Majesty, colleagues, Chen Juma is now in charge of phosphate fertilizer, phosphate fertilizer is also related to the foundation of the Tang Dynasty's society, the minister thinks that if Chen Juma is transferred out of Liangzhou, who should be responsible for this phosphate fertilizer matter?" ”

Originally, the Ministry of Works, who had been acting as a wooden man, Shangshu Wushi Tong, said: "Your Majesty, the minister has an idea, my brother Si Nong Siqing, who is proficient in agricultural affairs, can take over the phosphate fertilizer matter of Chen Yuma." ”

Sinong Siqing Wu Shi Ling is an honest man who is diligent and conscientious, and Li Yuan's impression of Wu Shi Ling has always been good.

Li Yuan finally made a decision and asked Chen Ying to come to the discussion.

It's just that when the oracle was issued from the Chang'an Taiji Palace, it was already past the time of the child. By the time the rider arrived in the clear forest, it was already the third watch.

At this time, Chen Ying and He Yue'er had already fallen into a deep sleep after several fierce battles.

In response to that sentence, there are only tired oxen, not ploughed fields. Chen Ying was so tired that he didn't even have the strength to move, he was soft all over, but He Yue'er was a grinding goblin, and she was determined to squeeze Chen Ying dry.

Chen Ying was naturally unwilling to admit defeat.

When the eunuch who announced the decree arrived in the Qing forest, no matter how he called Chen Ying, Chen Ying didn't wake up.

However, He Yue'er simply and rudely dressed Chen Ying, gently grabbed Chen Ying's waist, hugged Chen Ying into the carriage, the four-wheeled carriage, and galloped all the way to Chang'an.
