Chang'an, Liangyi Palace.
The eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Li Jing, Wei Zheng and others gathered together, and in the middle of them was a map, on which were written a few words: Goguryeo border defense map.
The top of the map clearly indicates the number of troops in each city on the border line, the transportation of grain and grass, and of course, there is also the indication of the geographical situation, where there are roads, how large vehicles can be too wide, where there are rivers, where they can be crossed, where they need to build bridges, and so on.
The eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Wei Zheng are all Wenchen, and they didn't show anything unusual when they saw the map, only Li Jing's eyes lit up immediately after seeing the map, if it weren't for Li Shimin standing on the side, it is estimated that he would immediately take this map as his own.
"What's the matter, a few Aiqing don't see anything" Li Shimin sat far away, watching a few people circling around the map there, picked up the cup for a long time, took a sip of tea, shook his head with emotion, and asked casually.
At this time, the tea he drank was no longer the tea soup that was brewed at the beginning, but a new tea that could be brewed with boiling water, and the clear tea and mellow taste made the king, who had been an emperor for several years, have an urge to smoke someone's board every time he tasted it.
"Your Majesty, how can this picture be true" Li Jing's whole mind was on the map on the table, and he was reflexively asked by the emperor.
This matter is also put on Li Shimin's body, if Yang Guang is there, Li Jing is estimated to be smacked a board.
But fortunately, Li Shimin is not the kind of person with a small belly and chicken intestines, and when he asked, he said casually: "This picture is offered by Xiaoyao" "Leisurely" Li Jing was stunned for a moment: "Go to Goguryeo to take the bones of the soldiers of the previous dynasty and return to China" "It's this person," Li Shimin nodded.
Li Jing's face changed, and he bowed to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, if this person is this person, you can quickly recruit this person back to Beijing."
"Oh, why is it difficult to figure out that this picture is fake," Li Shimin frowned slightly.
"Your Majesty, there is absolutely no possibility of falsification of this picture."
This time it was Fang Xuanling who spoke, and I saw that after the old man glanced at Li Jing, he smiled faintly and said, "As for the reason, pharmacist, it's better for you to say." ” Li Shimin looked at a few of his subordinate ministers there, and couldn't help but pout, and said angrily: "You old guys, don't you say it quickly if you still sell guanzi here."
"Your Majesty, you have led the army for many years, and you should have already seen the way out."
Li Jing's energy had been recovered from the map at this time, and he looked at Li Shimin and said with a wry smile: "This map does not say how the data on it was obtained, and its production method alone has far surpassed that of my Datang Dynasty, so the importance of the map needs to be said?"
"Well, it seems that you think the same way as me" Li Shimin nodded, got up from his seat, walked to the table where the map was placed, and dotted his finger on it: "Contour lines, scale bars, these are things that have never appeared in my Datang, I measured it according to the conversion method written above, and found that in fact, each of the routes drawn above is drawn according to a certain standard, and its length represents the distance." ” "And the same is true of the contour line, it took me a long time to understand the meaning of these three words, and it is precisely because of this that I discovered the mystery."
Li Jing sighed very agreeably: "Your Majesty, it is precisely because of this that Xiaoyaohou is asked to return to Beijing as soon as possible, if the Goguryeo people find out that Xiaoyaohou has brought out such an important thing, they will inevitably send someone to assassinate them." ” "No, some time ago, someone impeached him in Goguryeo for being afraid of difficulties, it is estimated that he was busy with this matter, since there was nothing at the time, it means that Goguryeo does not know what he has done."
Eldest Sun Wuji shook his head and said.
"It's better to let Xiaoyaohou come back, the bones of millions of soldiers are enough because of Zhining's escort, it's better to let Xiaoyaohou come back and explain the origin of this picture" Wei Zheng twisted his eyebrows on the side, and said thoughtfully: "If this method was created by Xiaoyaohou, calling him back can at least be a precaution." ” Although Wei Zheng and Li Jing have different starting points in looking at the problem, their ultimate goal is the same.
Only Fang Xuanling watched coldly from the side, looking at Li Shimin, who was slightly excited, and vaguely guessed something, but due to the current situation, he didn't say it directly, just stood next to him and watched silently and stopped talking.
"Okay, then call that kid Li Muyun back, I just have something to ask him" Finally, Li Shimin figured it out, turned around and returned to the table, and said in a deep voice: "But about the matter of this map, you must keep it strictly secret, and you must not leak it." ” "No, the ministers obey."
The eldest grandson Wuji and the others bowed together.
None of these people are stupid, Li Shimin naturally has his own meaning if he doesn't let this map be leaked, and they naturally won't ask too much.
Besides, the impact of the map can be big or small, and if you just take it and look at it, this thing is actually not very useful.
But if you really start a war, it will be very useful, whether it is arranging troops or marching on the road, it can be used almost everywhere.
Now Li Muyun has presented the defense map of Goguryeo to the Tang Emperor, and even the location of each town has been detailed on it, how many people are in the town, and if there is a war with Goguryeo, it will undoubtedly give the Tang Dynasty a great advantage.
Who can mix in the court is not a human spirit, and it can be seen that Li Shimin's purpose is naturally not only Fang Xuanling, even if there is no map, the eldest grandson Wuji can guess that Li Shimin has the heart to destroy Goguryeo, not to mention that the map is in front of him.
And Li Jing is the same, as an old ghost who has been fighting wars all the year round and pondering the art of war at home every day, if he didn't know that the Tang Dynasty was preparing to use troops against Goguryeo after seeing the map, he would have eaten in vain after so many years.
However, at this time, Li Muyun, who was far away in Youzhou, did not know what was happening in Chang'an, since Li Shimin wanted him to express his position, then he used practical actions to express his position, and a map of Goguryeo was enough to prove his opinion of Goguryeo.
As for the bones of millions of soldiers, in Li Muyun's opinion, it doesn't make a difference if Qingshan doesn't bury his bones, whether he stays at the border or escorts them back to Chang'an, as long as there are still people in Datang who remember them, it's enough.
At the moment, what really made him hesitate was actually the guy Quan Gai Suwen, and whether to kill or not became a big problem.
With Li Muyun's political talent, he couldn't tell whether this person was better dead or more useful to be alive
