Early the next morning, as soon as the day dawned, Li Hao took all his children to go for a walk on the ridge, this time is the busiest time in the field, because the sun has just come out, not too sunny, very cool, is the best time to work.

Now the field is golden, not ten days later, is the season of rice cutting, now the farmers are busy in the vegetable field, because the price of food is low, farmers want to get rich, then plant melons, fruits and vegetables and raise pigs, sheep, chickens and ducks, a year down, these alone can also earn three or four times, plus the income from selling grain, a household earns seven or eight times a year is no problem, if there are one or two people in the family involved in building roads or working in the factory of the Li Group, then the annual income can reach more than 15 times, the absolute well-off home, This is how the people of Datang have slowly become rich over the years.

Li Hao will bring his children to the field to do farm work every once in a while, which has almost become a routine, although the children are not very happy, but Li Hao forced them to do it, because people who have not suffered hardships are always too selfish, and occasionally let them do farm work and do housework, which is really beneficial to them, otherwise why do the children of poor families have the saying that they are in charge of the house early, most of the children of poor families are more sensible, if the family is poor, and the children are not sensible, that is what the parents used to when they were young, and they did not have a good education, Such children grow up to be basically wasted.

Li Hao called this kind of labor activity practical education, and after three years, it has been quite effective, but today is different, because there is one more person in the group of children, Li Hong, the king of Qi.

Li Hongcai was only six years old, and Xiao Zhengtai looked at the farmers who were hoeing for fruits and vegetables in the field with snot, and his face was ignorant.

Li Tu is twelve years old this year, has been practicing education for three years, has rich experience, after standing on the ridge, turned his head and asked Li Hao: "Dad, are we still hoeing grass today?" ”

Li Hao nodded and said, "Well, it's still hoeing, two hours, you teach Li Hong, he is here for the first time, and he is young and doesn't understand anything." ”

"Yes!" Li Tu bowed his head and said to King Qi, "Li Hong, you come with me, and I will teach you to work." ”

"Well, okay, Brother Litu." Li Hong nodded politely in agreement, and then followed Li Tu into the vegetable field.

After only a few steps, Li Tu suddenly shouted: "Li Hong, you are stepping on the vegetables!" Crops and vegetables can't be stepped on! His voice was loud, with a hint of admonition.

Li Hong hurriedly lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry Brother Li Tu, Hong'er was wrong." ”

Li Tu was helpless, softened his tone, and said, "Remember, don't step on it again." ”

"Okay, Brother Litu."

Li Hong was too young in the end, and it was the first day to work in the field, and he couldn't use tools or anything, so Li Tu gave him a one-handed small hoe, squatted and hoeed the grass, and was busy until noon, and hoeed a piece of land the size of the table, Li Tu couldn't cry or laugh.

Li Hao has been watching on the ridge, looking at his children working in the field, his heart is indescribably happy, from nine o'clock, the sun is getting hotter and hotter, and several little guys have begun to sweat on their foreheads, but the two hours that have not yet arrived, Li Hao did not shout the end, and continued to stand on the ridge, thinking that he had been farming in Nantuo Mountain for four years, and the suffering he suffered was not comparable to them, although sometimes he would feel sorry for the children, but he had always maintained rationality, let them suffer, it was for their good, Spoiling them hurts them.

Finally, it was ten o'clock, Li Hao clapped his hands on the ridge and shouted: "Okay, call it a day!" ”

Li Tu walked to the ridge with his younger brothers and sisters, Li Hao glanced at them, and finally his eyes fell on Li Hong, and asked with a smile: "Hong'er, how do you feel about working in the field today?" Do you find it hard? ”

"Hmm." Li Hong nodded, "Hard." ”

Li Hao smiled and said: "When your father was still the king of Jin, he also brought him to work in the fields for the teacher, and your father personally experienced the hardships of the people, so he still does not forget to cherish the rice as gold, cherish the people, and hope that you can do better than your father." ”

Li Hong saluted Li Hao and said in a good manner: "Hong thanks the teacher for his teachings." ”

Li Hao stepped forward and touched his little head, and said, "Hong'er is really sensible, let's go, let's go back." ”

So a group of little guys walked in front with hoes, and Li Hao followed behind, stepping on the ridge and walking towards home.

Li Hao attaches great importance to Li Hong's education, more than Li Tu, after all, he feels that he owes Li Hong, so he wants to compensate him, he personally taught Li Hong knowledge, personally taught him to practice boxing, told him philosophical stories, and told him about the disaster with Li Zhi, Li Hong was kind-hearted, when he heard that the victims starved to death on the side of the road, and when Yi Zi ate, his little face was very tight, after listening, Li Hao asked him: "Hong'er, after listening to the story of the teacher, do you have any ideas?" ”

Li Hong said: "Hong thinks that natural disasters are very annoying, and Hong doesn't want natural disasters. ”

Li Hao nodded and said: "Hong'er's idea is very good, but natural disasters are not something that human beings can resist in most cases, and natural disasters are coming, and we can't stop them at all, we can only manage them." ”

Li Hong said: "Then let my father govern well, and don't let people starve to death, they are so pitiful." ”

Li Hao smiled and stroked his head, and said, "Don't worry, your father is a benevolent Ming monarch, and he will treat the people well." ”

Datang is developing rapidly, and some surrounding countries are naturally also developing, Xue Yantuo and Hui Hui have been recuperating since they were beaten by Fan Lihua and withdrawn to the northern grassland, and now they are strong and strong, they have always wanted to return to Yu Du Jun Mountain, but Datang is too strong, they dare not provoke easily, so they are waiting for the opportunity, as long as there is any turmoil in Datang, that is when they fight back.

The Tibetan and Abbasid dynasties (Arabia) have also developed rapidly over the years, and the two countries have formed an alliance, communicating with each other at the same time and trading with the Tang Dynasty, the natural development is fast, the Tang Dynasty believes that although the two countries are tigers and wolves, but no matter how fast they develop, they can not compare with the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty is broad-minded, even if it is an enemy country, it will not cut off the trade, so there is no problem with trade at all, Li Hao also knows about it, and he also acquiesced, the current Tang Dynasty, not afraid of any country.

For the speed of development of the Tang Dynasty over the years, the Tibetans and Abbasids naturally knew, in fact, they were also very panicked, although they also sent people to the Tang Dynasty to learn science and technology, but it didn't seem to be of any use, the group of people who went to study came back, not only did not provide them with any scientific and technological help, but also clashed with the local religious forces, because the local religion regarded science as a heresy, and tried its best to reject it, fortunately, the king sent people to protect, so that these people who had learned knowledge survived, but they wanted to carry forward science in their homeland, and there was little hope.

In this case, Garqin Ling sent an envoy to the Abbasid Dynasty to ask for a joint attack on the Tang Dynasty, in his opinion, although the national strength of the Tang Dynasty has soared over the years, the military strength of the Tang Dynasty has not improved greatly, and over the years, the two countries have been fighting hard, and the two countries have joined forces, which should be able to defeat the Tang Dynasty.

The current caliph of the Abbasid dynasty is still the ambitious Ottoman, but now that Osman is getting older and his health is getting worse and worse, he also feels that he may die soon, so he wants to make some greater achievements at the end of his life, defeating Byzantium and Persia is nothing, and the Tang Dynasty is his goal in life.

However, the ministers were against the invasion of the Tang Dynasty, because they had always heard that the Tang Dynasty was invincible and was a giant dragon entrenched in the east, which could not be provoked, and only Yang Fan agreed to join forces with Tubo to attack the Tang Dynasty, after all, they and Tubo were also two major military powers, no matter how strong the Tang Dynasty was, could it be stronger than the two countries joining forces.

Uthman was the caliph, in the Abbasid dynasty, the caliph had supreme power, even if the ministers opposed, Uthman still overrode public opinion, agreed to the plan of the Tibetan army to attack the Tang Dynasty, and sent a letter of state for the Tibetan envoy to bring back.

At the end of February of the following year, the two countries sent troops, Tubo sent troops straight to Qinghai Protectorate, and the Abbasids sent troops straight to Anxi Protectorate, their battle plan was to capture these two places first, pry open the gate of the Tang Dynasty, as their expedition base, and then the troops were united, gathering 400,000 troops to attack Chang'an, to see how the Tang Dynasty resisted.

On March 15 of the fifth year of Yonghui, the phone at Li Hao's home rang, and it was Fan Lihua who called from Qinghai.

The telephone was just invented by Li Hao's scientific research room, and it is the most old-fashioned kind, there is no big breakthrough in technology at present, and it does not support multi-line contact, that is to say, the phone in Li Hao's home can only talk to Fan Lihua in Qinghai, which is equivalent to an ultra-long-distance one-to-one walkie-talkie.

Li Hao spent thousands of miles to lay the line at such a big cost, in order to be able to contact Fan Lihua from time to time, and Fan Lihua called today, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he said eagerly: "Li Hao, Tubo has attacked us, with 200,000 troops!" ”

Li Hao was taken aback, and then inquired about the details, Fan Lihua told him that Garqinling personally brought 200,000 troops to attack, and had surrounded the Qinghai Acropolis, there were 80,000 troops in the Qinghai Acropolis, and it was not a problem to defend the city, but Garqinling had divided another 40,000 troops and was going to Qinghai Duhufu City to kill, that is, the former Fu Qi City, there were only 5,000 soldiers in the Fu Qi City, and it was still a little difficult to deal with the 40,000 Tubo army, and it could only be defended for more than ten days at most.

Li Hao is a person who has experienced major events, and after being surprised, he quickly calmed down and said: "You defend the city of Fuqiu, and immediately send someone to Chang'an by train to send an emergency, and the reinforcements will arrive within five days." ”

Fan Lihua was immediately relieved, said thank you, and hung up the phone.

After Li Hao hung up the phone, he went out of the study as soon as possible, and shouted: "Where is Lu Yun?" ”

Lu Yun appeared in front of Li Hao like a gust of wind, Li Hao handed over the RV key and a token to Lu Yun, and said: "Drive to the railway management department immediately, within two days, all trains to Qinghai will be suspended, and all will gather at Chang'an Station to standby!" ”

"Yes!" Lu Yun took the car keys and tokens, and left like a gust of wind.

Li Haofei went up to the roof, and then jumped onto the tallest tower of his house, looking in the northwest direction, his eyes were cold and excited: "Finally...... The big war is about to start again, will you be so lucky this time? Tibetan! ”
