"Your Majesty, no, why do you want to crusade against Goguryeo for no reason!" Wei Zheng was the first to jump out and said.

"Our Datang prisoners have run out, can't I catch a new batch of them back? Didn't this already be discussed last time? Li Er sat on the dragon chair and said expressionlessly.

"But even if he wants to go on an expedition, why did the emperor choose Goguryeo? Didn't you say at that time that you would go to the Japanese country to ask for someone? Wei Zheng also said helplessly.

As a person who enrolls in the book of sages, Wei Zheng naturally hates this way of development, after all, this is all about the development of the lives of the people of other countries, but Wei Zheng can't deny that this method has brought great progress to the Tang Dynasty, at least with the labor force of other countries, it is a hundred times stronger than the people of the Tang Dynasty, and although this method is inhumane, it has been unanimously approved by the people, so Wei Zheng has no way.

After all, the people want it.

All Wei Zheng could do was to find some soft persimmons and pinch them when Li Er went to capture the prisoners, but now Li Er's upper lip and lower lip touched Goguryeo, which seemed to Wei Zheng to be a fool's dream.

Although he is not in his position and does not seek his own government, Wei Zheng also knows that Goguryeo is very difficult to beat, otherwise Emperor Yang of Sui would not have beaten himself to death.

"There are only a few people in the Wa Kingdom, I want a large number of prisoners, I visited Qiongzhou this time, this treasure ship has been half built, I estimate that it will not be long before it can be put into use, when the treasure ship brings back high-yield crops from overseas, then a large number of people will be needed to farm the land, and let this group of captives farm for our Tang Dynasty, won't our people get better development?" Li Erdao.

"Your Majesty, although this is the truth, how can the emperor guarantee that our Tang Dynasty will be able to succeed in the crusade against Goguryeo? You know, the lesson of the former Sui is right in front of you! When Wei Zheng said that he was excited, his beard shook and shook.

"Hmph, Lord Wei, are you saying that our Tang Dynasty's soldiers and horses are not as good as the previous dynasty? Your Majesty, there are old ministers, not to mention a small Goguryeo, even if all the Goguryeo nobles are captured, the ministers think it will be easy. ”

Cheng Yanjin obviously scoffed at Wei Zheng's statement, after all, Wei Zheng had not experienced it, but Cheng Yanjin had experienced it, and they were the ones who chased Jieli like a rabbit on the grassland, and at that time, Cheng Yanjin and they caught Jieli almost without wasting a single soldier.

This pair of Cheng Yanjin, who is full of confidence in himself, is simply a shot in the arm.

"Haha, I love to hear Zhijie's words, yes, I can consider letting you take the troops out." Li Er likes to listen to the words of Qi Booster now, and there is no doubt that Cheng Biting Jin is right in Li Er's arms.

After Cheng Yanjin heard this, his face suddenly became happy, and he hurriedly arched his hand and said: "The emperor can rest assured, this time the emperor will drive the expedition in person, as long as the emperor points to the minister, the minister is still the same as before, the emperor You say to fight, the minister will hit." ”

Li Er also smiled and nodded after hearing this, and seemed to be very satisfied with Cheng Biting Jin's statement.

As soon as Cheng Biting Jin said this, Wei Chigong was immediately unhappy, and he also stood up and wanted to grab a vanguard position, so the two generals with the strongest combat effectiveness in service in the Tang Dynasty at this stage tore up in the early court.

Wei Zheng ignored himself when he saw this group of people directly, and he was also angry and didn't know what to say, so he took a few deep breaths and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister has something unclear, and I ask the emperor to make it clear." ”

At this time, Li Er's thoughts had already drifted to how to celebrate after his victorious return, and he didn't take Wei Zheng to heart at all, so when Wei Zheng asked a question, Li Er also smiled and said, "Aiqing doesn't know what's going on." ”

"Your Majesty, we don't care if we can win the battle for the time being, let's just say that the emperor, what kind of excuse do you plan to use to send troops to Goguryeo?" As soon as Wei Zheng said this, the faces of the ministers also showed a thoughtful look.

Yes, they also admit it, whether they can win the battle or not, they can also put it aside first, but this reason for sending troops, it must be justified, otherwise these civil servants will not be able to pass the hurdle in their hearts.

"This ......" Li Er was asked like this, and suddenly found that there really seemed to be no suitable reason to send troops to Goguryeo, when fighting the Turks, Comrade Li Er also asked people to write a lot of reasons to send troops, and this expedition to Goguryeo was completely because Li Er wanted to fight, where would there be so many reasons?

"Yes, Your Majesty, you don't even have a reason, how is this good? If we rush to send troops, I'm afraid that on the moral side, we won't be able to stand up. Wei Zheng saw that Li Er's words were poor, so he stroked his beard with a smile and said.

When Li Er saw Wei Zheng's appearance, he knew what Wei Zheng was paying attention to, but Li Er really couldn't think of any good reason to send troops for a while.

"I said, Lord Wei, what do you mean by that? Could it be that we brought back this high-yielding crop, but there was no one to cultivate it? Cheng Yanjin also asked with a frown.

"The old man didn't say that, although morally speaking, it hurts the peace of the heavens and the heavens, but for the sake of the people of my Tang Dynasty, the old man thinks that it is okay to do this, but the reason for sending troops must be justified, otherwise we will not become an unrighteous army?" Wei Zhengdao.

"That, Qingquan, you say a few words, you should express your opinion on this matter." Li Er thought about it, and it seemed that only Zhang Nan could be relied on at this time.

"Clear Spring? Spring? Li Er shouted twice, but found that there was no answer from Zhang Nan, so Li Er began to look for Zhang Nan in the figure of the courtiers, and sure enough, it was still in that familiar corner, next to the familiar pillar, I saw Zhang Nan who had been kowtowing.

"Ahem." Li Er coughed twice and gave Cui Shao, who was standing beside Zhang Nan, a wink, and Cui Shao hurriedly pinched Zhang Nan's waist with his hand.

It didn't matter if he pinched it, Zhang Nan shouted out with a "whoop", causing everyone to laugh.

"Father-in-law, why are you pinching me?" Zhang Nan frowned and rubbed his waist and said, Cui Shao hurriedly nodded in the direction of Li Er.

Zhang Nan immediately understood that it was Li Er who was summoning.

"Qingquan, tell me what is the best reason for us to send troops to Goguryeo this time." Li Er could only reluctantly repeat his own question.

After listening to Li Er's question, Zhang Nan scratched his head strangely and said, "Your Majesty, is this also a problem?" ”

"Doesn't that count?" Li Er was even more strange.

"Isn't it supposed that we should hit him if we want to?" Zhang Nan continued to scratch his head and said with a look of course.
