Some things don't need to be said too clearly.
Li Shimin has already understood, Xiao Pass is a Xiongguan north of Chang'an.
It can be said that one husband is a close to ten thousand people.
If the 20,000 people of the Shenji Guard are trapped north of Xiaoguan and lack supplies, the Shenji Guard will collapse within a month.
At that time, Li Mu only had two choices, one was to go north, then he needed to rob the people of various states to supply military rations, so that the imperial court could justifiably send troops to clear it, and the other was to bow to the imperial court, so that Li Shimin could ask Li Muyu for what he wanted.
No matter how strong Li Mushen's guard is, there are only 20,000 people.
And the soldiers under Li Tao's command, plus the forbidden army, there are as many as 200,000.
Even if you fight for one-to-ten, you can annihilate the Divine Guard.
This also has the advantage of isisolating Li Mu north of Xiaoguan, no matter how strong Jiangnan is, it will not be able to rescue Li Mu.
Even if Jiangnan rebelled when he heard the news, from Hangzhou to Chang'an, how many states would he have to pass through.
No matter how sharp the knife is, Li Shimin is sure to blunt it and break it.
Although Li Shimin knew that if Li Tao fought hard against Li Mu, the government soldiers and the forbidden army would suffer great losses.
But compared to getting the current Jiangnan, it's still worth it.
Of course, there are downsides to doing so.
That is, Li Shimin will once again bear the notoriety.
Li Mu rescued Ganzhou, defeated the Turkic army, and expanded the territory to the Tianshan Mountains.
Such a feat, but was harmed by the imperial court.
Li Shimin can imagine that the world is leisurely, I am afraid that I will not be able to wash it away in this life.
Li Shimin was undecided, he waved his hand and said, "Let me think again, think again." ” The eldest grandson Wuji bowed silently, ready to withdraw.
But when he walked to the door, the eldest grandson Wuji suddenly said: "Your Majesty, in fact, as long as you ask Jiangnan Weiguo Gong for verification, you can know whether Li Mu has any objections." ” Li Shimin was stunned, the eldest grandson Wuji was right, if Li Mu wanted to rebel, then Jiangnan could always see some signs.
"Okay, according to what the auxiliary machine said, immediately send someone to order Li Jing to play all the things in the south of the Yangtze River." 。
Hangzhou Grand Governor's Office.
Wei Zheng, Su Dingfang, Li Jing, Ma Zhou and others sat together.
Their faces are different.
There are those who are happy, there are those who are uneasy, and there are even those who are as indifferent as Li Jing.
Li Mu's secret order was spread out on the table.
Everyone present has seen it.
Recruit 80,000 recruits, step up training, and stick to the front line of the Yangtze River.
Such an order can be understood by all.
That is, Wu Wangmu is going to have an incident, at least he has the idea of starting an incident.
In addition to fighting against the imperial court, Jiangnan did not need so many troops at all.
Ma Zhou first broke the silence, "Since His Royal Highness has an order, then just do it, and with Jiangnan's financial resources, don't say it's 80,000, even if it doubles to 160,000." ” Wei Zheng said: "It's not a matter of being able to afford it, but recruiting 80,000 new soldiers, once this matter reaches the imperial court, it will definitely attract the suspicion of His Majesty, and now His Royal Highness is on the way to withdraw his troops, in case the imperial court is in trouble, I am afraid it will be unfavorable to His Royal Highness." ” Su Dingfang said: "This is not difficult, I can ask the states to recruit new soldiers in the name of regimental training, and then assemble for training."
Although it will still be known in the end, it will not be a problem to drag on for a month, and His Highness should also go south by then. ” Wei Zheng nodded and said, "That's a good method. ” Speaking of this, Wei Zheng turned his head and asked Li Jing: "Does Wei Guogong have any objections?"
Asked by Wei Zheng, Li Jing said: "Jiangnan Dongdao is only a land of nineteen states, there is no foreign enemy, 40,000 divine guards are enough, and now recruit another 80,000 people, there is a suspicion of reckless force." ” Wei Zheng narrowed his eyes and asked, "In this way, Wei Guogong is against recruiting new soldiers."
Li Jing said: "I don't object, but I don't approve either." ” Wei Zheng nodded and said, "In that case, General Su should act according to His Highness's orders." ” "Yes."
Su Dingfang responded.
After Li Jing and the others left.
Wei Zheng, Su Dingfang, and Ma Zhou stayed.
Wei Zheng took out another letter and handed it to Su Dingfang and Ma Zhou to read.
"General Su and Ma Jian ordered, His Royal Highness has decided to start an incident, and it is 120,000 people to be recruited."
Wei Zheng said solemnly.
Ma Zhou's eyes sharpened, "Your Highness's choice of timing is just right, the letter said that now more than 200,000 troops in the Western Regions are under His Royal Highness's control, so in terms of military strength, compared with the forbidden army in the garrison capital, it is not inferior." ” Su Dingfang said: "According to His Highness's arrangement, I only have two months to train recruits at most, so I am really in a hurry."
Fortunately, the military cadets trained by Wei Guogong have now reached the time of graduation, which is just right for them to participate in actual combat and accumulate experience. ” Ma Zhou pondered and said: "Wei Guogong's position is not clear, and these things need to be hidden from him for a few days for the time being." ” Wei Zheng nodded and said: "Before, Chang He suddenly led the Runzhou Mansion soldiers to join Yangzhou, which is indeed worthy of our vigilance.
Although Wei Guogong is upright, it is still necessary to conceal something at this extraordinary time. ” Ma Zhou said: "His Royal Highness wants General Su to lead 100,000 troops from the canal north at the specified time, and General Su must also consider the enemy in Yangzhou and the defense of Hangzhou, and the responsibility is not heavy."
In this way, Zhou Mao recommended himself, and I will be responsible for the recruitment west of Yuezhou. ” Su Dingfang said: "In fact, it is not difficult to prevent Yangzhou, before the frequent rebellions in the states, the armies of Yangzhou have been scattered in the states to quell the chaos, as long as a strong part of Runzhou is stationed, it can deter the Yangzhou defenders."

However, since the Ma Inspector Order has the intention to give a certain worry, but a certain is disrespectful, then there is a Lao Ma Inspector's Order, haha. ” Ma Zhou nodded Su Dingfang and said: "Don't be careless, Hangzhou is the foundation of His Royal Highness, and gains and losses are related to the overall situation." ” Wei Zheng said: "What the Ma Supervisor Order said is extremely true. ” Su Dingfang said: "Then the Duke of Wei, in the name of the Great Governor's Mansion, will issue a recruitment order to the nineteen states.
The recruitment of 120,000 people must be completed within 10 days and 7 days, and competent veterans must be arranged for training. ” "Okay, old man, I'll draft the paperwork."
Li Jing left the Great Governor's Mansion.
Return to the west side of Fuchu.
Shut yourself in your study and order no one to disturb you.
He lifted the pen again and again, and put it down again and again.
"The Emperor, how can the ministers deal with themselves?"
Li Jing sighed for a long time.
He pulled out a small bag from the secret place of the study.
After slowly opening it, it reveals a folded Jinpa.
After spreading it out, Li Jing gently stroked it with his right hand.
If Li Mu was here at this time, he would definitely be able to recognize that this was the same Jinpa as himself and Li Tao.
Li Jing looked up to the sky and sighed bitterly, on the one hand, it was the will of the Emperor Taishang, who was as kind to him as a mountain, on the other hand, it was the emperor who had been loyal to him for more than ten years, and on the other hand, it was King Wu, who respected him.
How to choose, Li Jing is really difficult.
After hesitating for a long time, Li Jing finally spread out a roll of paper and wrote: "Everything is as usual in Jiangnan. ”:
