Chapter 104: Let's cut off the Turks' roots

"Poisoned?" Li Shimin was slightly stunned, and for some reason he was a little disappointed, and slowly shook his head and said, "I thought you had any good plan, but it turned out that you were just poisoning." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info This is not appropriate, it is not appropriate......"

Han Yue was slightly stunned, then reacted, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is right, the poisoning strategy is too vicious, and it is indeed not a gentleman's doing." ”

"Why did I say it was because I was vicious?" Li Shimin glanced at him, and said with some hatred: "Those who achieve great things are not informal, as long as they can achieve their goals, who cares if it is a poisonous plan or a good strategy?" You stinky boy is good anywhere, but his temperament is not resolute enough, you have memorized it well, those who have become great in ancient times have a fierce and decisive heart, Cao Apu once said that he would rather let me bear the world, not teach the world to bear me, this is reasonable, you must have a good experience. ”

"And what does Your Majesty mean?"

"I mean it's a good plan, but it's not easy to do." Li Shimin glanced at him and said lightly: "Do you think that marching and fighting is a child's play?" Hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, whenever the camp is either backed by mountains or near water, as long as the leading general is not an idiot, he will definitely send countless scouts to guard around the camp, how do you approach poisoning? ”

"Your Majesty, the minister means ......"

"What do you mean for nothing!" Li Shimin directly interrupted him, and said angrily: "The poisoning thing is the most offensive defense of soldiers, although the Turks have no famous generals, but there will be no such mistakes." Your kid's plan is a bit whimsical, but you're still too young. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Han Yue again, as if he felt that he shouldn't hit the young man's self-motivation, he thought about it for a while and couldn't help but say: "Take 10,000 steps back, even if you can succeed in poisoning, this plan won't have much effect, you must know that the army buries the pot and eats in rotation, and each batch will never exceed 10,000 people at a time, if the first batch eats poisonous food, the people behind will be able to find out immediately, do you think they will be stupid enough to continue eating?" ”

Only then did Han Yue understand that Li Shimin was worried about this.

He smiled and explained, "Your Majesty, you have misunderstood, the opportunity for poisoning that the minister said is not in the war, but after the war. ”

"After the war?" Li Shimin was at a loss, and couldn't help but say, "What does this mean?" ”

Han Yue coughed, he didn't directly answer Li Shimin's doubts, but said, "Your Majesty, have you ever predicted the outcome of this war in your heart?" ”

"The end of the war?" Li Shimin was at a loss again, he felt that he couldn't keep up with Han Yue's thoughts.

"What does this have to do with the outcome of the war?"

"Yes!" Han Yue nodded solemnly, he glanced at Li Shimin carefully, and said tentatively: "The minister wants to ask Your Majesty first, do you think we can win this war?" ”

"What ...... this" Li Shimin pondered for a long time before he sighed lightly, and said a little deflated: "After all, the Turks are powerful, once they are full of strength, it will be absolutely difficult for our Tang Dynasty to contend with." Even if you use the strategy you said to clear the wall and the evil heart, it will only reduce its combat power and confuse its military morale, and the effect is huge, but it is difficult to guarantee victory or defeat. ”

"That's right!" Han Yue slapped his thigh, and then said: "Your Majesty is right, if you want to win a million-level battle, it is definitely not enough to rely on auxiliary strategies alone, forgive the ministers for being blunt, I think we will definitely lose this war." ”

"You just say what's the best plan, mother-in-law and mother are crooked, and they are still not a man in the end." Li Shimin was a little annoyed, the emperor has a hegemonic heart, although he knew that he lost the war because of the lack of troops, but there was still an evil fire in his heart.

Han Yue smiled and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry, and listen to the minister." He quietly retreated a few steps until he was three feet away from Li Shimin, and then said: "I think that although we will lose this battle, we will definitely not lose too badly." The Turkic Prancing Horse relied on war to feed the war, and our strategy of clearing the wall and field can just reduce its endurance and combat effectiveness, as long as it drags on for more than ten days, they will definitely retreat due to lack of supplies. ”

Li Shimin nodded in approval, and then asked, "What else ......?"

"There are also rumors, and as rumors continue to spread, the hatred between the Turkic tribes will inevitably become heavier and heavier. The so-called striking iron still needs its own hardness, and no matter how strong an army is in a nest, it is estimated that it will be difficult to work together on the battlefield. That Turkic Khan, as long as he is not stupid. Forced, he would naturally take this factor into account, which could strengthen his determination to withdraw from the army. ”

When he said this, he swallowed and foamed, sorted out his thoughts by the way, and then said: "But the Turkic jackals must not be willing to withdraw in vain, so the minister guesses that they will definitely use their power to oppress people and forcibly ask for huge sums of money from our Datang." ”

"Humph!" The tip of Li Shimin's nose was heavy, the emperor had a strong desire to possess, and he thought that his property must be handed over to others, which made him feel how he didn't feel the atmosphere.

However, Han Yue still sprinkled salt on the wound and continued: "The Turks will not only ask for money, but will even make us make offerings. But it doesn't matter, I heard that when His Majesty fought the world with the Emperor Taishang, because there were not many soldiers and horses, the power was not strong, and he also called the Turks a minister, and now it is just another old road. ”

This is a bit heart-wrenching, and it is clear that he is revealing the scars of the Li family. Li Shimin's face was red and white, and he wanted to press this stinky boy to the ground and beat him violently several times. However, he could endure it, and he was looking forward to Han Yue's follow-up, so he forcibly suppressed his anger.

Han Yue must have the following, otherwise he wouldn't dare to provoke the emperor like this if he was killed.

"Your Majesty, do you know why the minister's last strategy is not called open killing but assassination? Because it is precisely when it is going to be secretly poisoned by the New Year's offering. The Turks eat meat all year round, and meat is difficult to digest, so they lack tea. The minister guessed that they would ask for a large amount of tea when they made the offering, and this was our chance to poison it. ”

"Poisoning the tea?" Li Shimin's eyes lit up, he pondered carefully for a long time, and said with some uncertainty: "This matter sounds feasible, but there is a problem that cannot be solved. This is the problem, the tea cake is not used up at one time, but a small piece is broken each time to brew. Alas, although the poisoning strategy is good, it can only poison the first batch of tea drinkers, and it will be useless later. ”

"Don't be afraid, we can control the dose of poison!"

"Dose control doesn't work either." Li Shimin shook his head slowly, and muttered: "How important is the annual offering of a country, although most of the Turkic people are ignorant, but there is no lack of smart people, they will definitely test after receiving the tea cakes, even if we reduce the dose, but poison is poisonous, as long as they find a few people to drink tea and drag it for three or five days, they can naturally detect that the tea is inappropriate." ”

"Your Majesty doesn't need to worry, the minister happens to know that there is a thing, this thing is not poison, so he is not afraid of short-term testing, but long-term use can seriously harm people's bodies, and it can completely avoid the Turks from detecting."

"Oh? And such strange things? "Li Shimin is very interested."

"Not bad! It's not poison, but it can hurt people. Han Yue nodded slowly and explained: "This thing is originally a mineral, but it was discovered by the minister by accident, because of its special nature, it is very fierce when used well, so the minister named it manganese ore!" ”

"Manganese?"

"Yes, it's manganese ore!" Han Yue took a light breath and said in a low voice: "This thing is gray after grinding, which happens to be similar to the color of tea leaves, and after adding it to the tea brick, even the maker can't tell it." ”

"And what about toxicity?" Li Shimin hurriedly asked, what he was most concerned about was this.

Han Yue smiled evilly: "It's not too poisonous, and it barely makes people dementia, Your Majesty, let's cut off the Turkic people!" ”

"Good!" Li Shimin slapped his thigh and looked up to the sky and laughed. He looked a little excited, and said: "With this manganese ore, I can't help but want to lose the war, Jieli, Jieli, don't you want to make an offering, I will give it to you, I will give it to you." ”

Since ancient times, he has been called a minister, and no one has ever been able to exhale and raise his eyebrows like him. If the emperor is cool, someone will inevitably follow. Li Shimin suddenly glanced at Han Yue with great meaning, and said lightly: "The stinky boy is doing well, you come forward, I... Want... Add... Seal ......"

After a word, although the voice was not loud, it seemed to shake through the top of the mountain, Han Yue only felt a loud bang in his head, and the whole person was a little sluggish.

"Lying on the grass, but if you move your mouth, this is going to give benefits......"

……

It does give benefits!

The title was lightly promoted by one level, from a first-class county male to a fifth-class county candidate, and from now on, I will no longer be afraid of someone calling us a man.

Han Yue was a little excited, he didn't pay much attention to the promotion of the title, mainly because this title was awkward. Now it's okay, Jingyang Nan has been upgraded to Jingyang Hou, although only one word has been changed, but this is full of real gold. The so-called battlefield is not afraid, only for the marquis of Wanhu, it is not easy for the title to rise to the level of the marquis, many generals die in a hundred battles, and they may not be able to be crowned a marquis in the end.

However, Li Shimin was still a little regretful, he patted Han Yue on the shoulder and said: "Stinky boy, don't be stingy, the matter of knighthood is not trivial, although I really want to give you a prince, but it will definitely be difficult to pass in the court." For the time being, let's hang a marquis first, and the fields will not be given, so as not to jump out of the miscellaneous hair of the family and make trouble. ”

What he said was a little touching, Han Yue was a little excited in his heart, and hurriedly bowed down and saluted: "Your Majesty, the kid is very grateful." ”

Li Shimin laughed, waved his hand, and said: "I don't particularly care if I am grateful or not, as long as you live well, you can be a rich family, don't come to the court." You don't have to plan for an official position or anything, I will only give you a knighthood in this life, and I will never give it if I am really lacking, and you have to leave a score in advance for this matter, so as not to accuse me of ......being ruthless when I grow up in the future."

Han Yue hurriedly shook his head and said with a smile: "Although the minister has a slippery temperament, his temper is a little stinky, especially when he speaks, he doesn't know how to offend people many times. His Majesty's reluctance to let the minister be an official just dispelled the minister's concerns, so as not to annoy people in the future and make countless enemies under the white tree. ”

"Tree enemies?" Li Shimin sneered and said lightly: "What about the enemy, with me and the queen to support you, even if you stab the sky, what's the matter." There is another reason why I don't want you to enter the court as an official, don't think about it, you stinky boy, you can do what you want to do in the future, don't worry too much, whoever dares to provoke you will do it directly. If you can't win, shout ......"

If you can't win, shout! This is simply a gold medal for avoiding death.

Han Yue's eyes lit up, and he suddenly thought that it seemed that the back house of the Taiyuan Wang family had not been blown up yet.
