Chapter 977: Li Gang is critically ill

Hearing that Xu Xiaode pointed out Baekje as soon as he went up, Xia Hongsheng couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he is worthy of being a courtier who can eat well in both dynasties, and this vision is indeed there. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Father-in-law, Takami." Xia Hongsheng said with a smile: "Therefore, the measures of Baekje have already begun to be implemented. Baekje had invaded Silla before, but His Majesty issued an order to mediate but Baekje did not listen, and the imperial court had already sent several warships from Dongyeong-do to support Silla's counterattack on Baekje. His Majesty deliberately sent few military ships, and Baekje was already at a disadvantage if it was in a stalemate with Silla, and it would definitely unite with Goguryeo. ”

When Xu Xiaode heard this, he immediately laughed, and sighed: "Your Majesty is worthy of being a famous general of my dynasty, and this strategy is very good." First, Baekje led Goguryeo, and Goguryeo divided troops to help Baekje, but Baekje went against the will of the Tang Dynasty suzerain, so that Goguryeo fell into the truth, and the Tang Dynasty had an excuse to send troops to Goguryeo. Second, Goguryeo divided its troops to help Baekje, and the natural strength of the Western Front weakened, which brought convenience to the surprise attack on the Western Front. ”

"Yes, exactly!" Xia Hongsheng also nodded and smiled.

"In this way, when the old man arrived in Dengzhou, he prepared grain and grass for the sailors who conquered Goguryeo, and received armaments to store in their places for the needs of war." Xu Xiaode said.

Xia Hongsheng nodded yes again and said, "Father-in-law, the grain and grass of the Tang Dynasty's expedition to Goguryeo mainly came from the Ryukyus and Linyi Road, and all of them were by sea. There's nothing to worry about. Originally, the construction of the Dongying Road in the Tang Dynasty needed a lot of grain and grass, and Dengzhou was the starting point of the main channel of the Tang Dynasty out of the Dongying Road, and a large amount of grain was gathered, as long as it was covered up slightly, it was not easy for Baekje, which was not far from Dengzhou, to see. The main thing is armament. At present, the Tang Dynasty has no useful troops in the northeast, and if it is discovered that the armaments are gathering in Dengzhou, they will be detected. Although Baekje is now caught in the alliance between Silla and the Tang Dynasty and has no time to take care of it, it is better to be on the safe side. Most of the armaments were taken from the pass, and the father-in-law could cover them with grain and grass as a cover, and set up a secret room in the place where the grain was stored to hide it. ”

Xu Xiaode nodded and said, "What the virtuous son-in-law said is good, and rest assured that the old man will never ask Baekje and Goguryeo to detect the collection of armaments in Dengju." ”

"With the father-in-law watching, the son-in-law is naturally not worried." Xia Hongsheng said with a smile: "Let's talk about this new ship." Nowadays, the imperial court built a large number of new ships and ironclad ships. New ships have docks in Dengzhou, Mingzhou, Yangzhou, Quanzhou, Ryukyu, Guangzhou and Jiaozhou. However, among these docks, the only ones that can process new ships into ironclad ships are Dengzhou, Mingzhou, Quanzhou, and Ryukyu. After my father-in-law arrived in Dengzhou, I was afraid that I would have to run back and forth between the north and south coasts. ”

Xu Xiaode said with a smile: "The old man is not afraid of tossing back and forth. ”

Xia Hongsheng also smiled and said: "The son-in-law must wish his father-in-law the opportunity to be promoted." In the first battle of Goguryeo, His Majesty drove the expedition in person, and he was a feint, and the sailor was secretly the master. The so-called soldiers and horses have not moved, and the grain and grass go first. Logistics is the top priority of the First Army. My father-in-law is now in charge of this matter, and he will be wiped out in Goguryeo and recover Liaodong, what is the contribution of my father-in-law! ”

Xu Xiaode shook his head, sighed, and said: "The old man doesn't seek merit, I only hope that there will be no more things back then, and the world will be safe, I just want Li Min not to re-enter the chaos!" ”

"Datang is now strong and strong, the hearts of the people are gathered, the armament is excellent, and the good generals are like clouds. Not to mention the power of firearms, there is no one in the world who can resist it, and there is something that can resist the bitter cold of Liaodong. And His Majesty himself is a good general, and he will not be like Emperor Yang who is good at military affairs and delay the military situation. Categorically not ......"

"Master, someone outside asked to see him, saying that he was from the Hou Mansion of Jingyang, and there was something important to pass on to the Hou Ye......" Xia Hongsheng said as he spoke, but was suddenly interrupted by a voice from outside.

Xu Xiaode was stunned for a moment, looked at Xia Hongsheng, and said outside: "Let him come over quickly!" ”

Xia Hongsheng also had doubts in his heart, turned his head and waited.

Soon, he heard a burst of footsteps, Xia Hongsheng got up and went over to open the door, and the family members in the family ran out of breath and stood outside.

"Childe! The academy came to find Gongzi, saying that Master Li was critically ill, and Doctor Sun was unable to return to heaven, so he called you to go to the academy quickly! ”

"What?!" Xia Hongsheng and Xu Xiaode were both shocked, and Xu Xiaode stood up suddenly, and immediately shouted outside: "Prepare the horse!" Prepare the horses! Hurry up! ”

Xia Hongsheng pulled the little guy over and asked urgently, "Have you ever informed Master Li's family?" Have you ever reported it to the palace? ”

"Informed! The academy sent a number of people out, all of them together, and only after entering Chang'an did they pass on the word separately! The little guy nodded vigorously in reply.

"Jingshi, go back to the academy quickly! The old man will go with you! Xu Xiaode came over to Xia Hongsheng and said.

Xia Hongsheng nodded hurriedly, and the two of them didn't care about leaving words, so they immediately ran outside.

The subordinates of the Xu Mansion had already heard the shouting and quickly went to prepare the horses. Xu Xiaode and Xia Hongsheng immediately led their horses away and galloped outside Chang'an City.

Qi Yong opened the way in front, and the two of them rushed all the way to Jingyang.

Xia Hongsheng was very proud of Li Gang's upright and decent old men. As a great Confucian, he not only adhered to the academic doctrine he believed in, but also was able to tolerate other learning, and never denied the progress of new learning.

Such a person is a real scholar, and he is the one who can truly achieve the beauty of each other, the beauty of the beauty, the beauty of the United States, and the unity of the world.

Not to mention that after Li Gang saw the benefits that Gewu could bring to the world, he helped Xia Hongsheng everywhere and guided Xia Hongsheng. He was even worried that Guozijian would gather Confucian students from all over the world to oppose the academy, and regardless of his illness, he personally lived in the academy, just because if Guozijian really wanted to call on Confucian students to rebel against the academy, with his reputation among Confucianism, he might be able to help Xia Hongsheng and Jingyang Academy.

Such a person, how can he teach Xia Hongsheng to be disrespectful?!

As soon as he thought of this, Xia Hongsheng beat him fiercely with the horsewhip in his hand, wishing that he could shrink the ground into inches, and return to the academy in an instant.

Xia Hongsheng and Xu Xiaode galloped all the way, and they didn't care about the frightened pedestrians who dodged and screamed again and again, just thinking about hurrying up and going back quickly.

Back to Jingyang, rushed all the way to the academy. Xia Hongsheng and Xu Xiaode turned over and dismounted and ran forward.

There were already people waiting anxiously at the gate of the academy, and when they saw Xia Hongsheng coming back, they immediately ran over: "Mountain Chief!" Li Shi fainted the day before yesterday, and woke up twice in the middle, and he couldn't win once. I don't recognize anyone anymore! I fainted again today, and Mr. Sun said that Master Li woke up next time, but I am afraid that it will be the time to return to the light, and I am afraid that I will not be able to survive tonight! ”

Xia Hongsheng pulled his feet and ran to the villa on the hill behind the academy. (To be continued.) )
