"Your Majesty, for the sake of our Silla paying tribute every year, and being a vassal every year, save us Silla, woo woo woo ......"
The Silla envoy saw Li Zhi, just like a child who lost a fight and went home to find his parents, "poof" knelt in front of Li Zhi and cried with a whin."
Park Aiqing, what's wrong with you, hurry up and ....."
Li Ji was taken aback by the Silla envoy, and he quickly asked the Silla envoy to stand up and speak."
Woo woo, Your Majesty, our Silla really can't bear it, when the minister left Silla, he had already lost more than 30 cities, and the soldiers and horses of Baekje and Goguryeo were about to come to Jincheng..... if you don't send troops again, woo woo, our Silla will be finished, my Majesty ......"
The Silla envoy knelt on the ground and refused to get up, he kowtowed as he spoke, and even blood came out of his head, and he didn't care about wiping it."
What?
Yuangai Suwen and Buyeo Yici are so bold??
”When Li Zhi heard this, he stood up suddenly, the news was too shocking."
Woo woo, Your Majesty, that's not all, on the way to Chang'an, the minister also heard a terrifying news, Yuangai Suwen has sent people to Broken Leaves, I heard that they want to form an alliance with Li Yi.......
"At this time, Silla was still the most loyal younger brother of the Tang Dynasty, so he naturally followed Chang'an and scolded Li Lu for Li Shun."
Hiss......"
When Li Zhi heard this, he immediately became worried, if Yuangai Suwen really colluded with his bastard brother-in-law, then the problem would be a big problem......."
Your Majesty, if Ying and Goguryeo converge, then the consequences are unimaginable......"
Xu Jingzong is the roundworm in Li Zhi's stomach, he guessed that Li Zhi's mind was very accurate, and he said that Li Zhi's heart was above it."
Yes, Your Majesty, we must guard against the convergence of the two of them......
Why don't we send someone to kill the envoy of Goguryeo and blame the British rebel......"
Li Yifu came up with an idea that he thought was very clever.Most of the prime ministers present expressed their worries, only Cui Dunli and Li Ji shook their heads again and again, but although Li Ji, an old slippery head, did not agree with Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu's views, he did not stand up, and Cui Dunli, who had just become the prime minister, couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about this, I'm afraid that the Goguryeo envoy has a life to break the leaves, but he doesn't have the life to return to Goguryeo......"
Hearing Cui Dunli say this, Li Zhi's ears stood up, "Cui Xiang, what do you say?"
”"Hehehe, the reason is very simple, Li Zhiyuan's strength far exceeds that of Goguryeo, Li Zhiyuan has never regarded Yiren as a human being, a country like Goguryeo that does not speak Chinese and does not write Chinese characters can get into his eyes?
There is also an alliance, and the old minister must have thought too much about Nayuan Gai Suwen......
"Cui Dunli has dealt with Li Lu before, and he knows what kind of person Li Lu is, so he made such a judgment."
Cui Xiang is also a little too optimistic.....
Li Yi left us with the impression that this is true, but that is because he did not tear off his disguise, and now that he is openly usurping his position, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not collude with Yuangai Suwen....."
Xu Jingzong said unconvinced.Li Yifu was just about to say something, when he saw Li Ji stand up, "Your Majesty, no matter whether Li Yi colluded with Yuangai Suwen or not, Goguryeo has reached the point where it must be resolved......
As for their alliance, hehehe, if we destroy this Goguryeo before the Goguryeo envoys return, what is the point of this alliance??
”Li Zhi heard the words of Li Ji, an old slippery head, and was immediately shocked, yes, if Goguryeo is destroyed, what is the use of them reaching an alliance?
Thinking of this, Li Zhi's eyes began to burn and shine, if he destroyed Goguryeo in one fell swoop, then he would be able to surpass Emperor Wen of Sui, Emperor Yang of Sui and his father in one fell swoop, and he would write a strong stroke in history.After more than 20 years of hard work by his father, especially stimulated by a few grain crops brought by Li Lu, although the population controlled by Chang'an has not yet reached the peak level of 9.5 million households in the four years of Emperor Yang of Sui's great cause, it has doubled compared with the less than 3 million households when his father Li Ergang ascended the throne.
This meant that Li Zhi had sufficient national resources to deal with the Goguryeo War.Moreover, Li Er left him with a strong team, and the court, the civil and military generals were many talented and talented.The most important thing is that Li Zhi knew that his military talent was far inferior to his Laozi Li Er, so he planned to give up the pro-conquest and give the generals of the Eastern Expedition enough power, he thought that in this way, the front-line generals could act cheaply for different war situations and give the Tang army a chance to finally destroy Goguryeo.Li Zhi's confidence is another point, that is, with the support of Li Ji, he began to reform the government soldier system and began to introduce the recruitment system, but the recruitment system he implemented still has strong government soldier characteristics, not professional soldiers, in the Tang Dynasty ruled by Li Zhi, except for those government soldiers, there is no fixed soldier and establishment in peacetime, and only when there is something to recruit, he will return to his hometown or restore the identity of the people on the spot.The government recruited soldiers by means of generous remuneration, and soldiers could receive official positions or titles based on their military merits.This move made Ding Min flock to him, and his combat effectiveness was much stronger than that of the previous government soldiers.Last but not least, Li Zhi knew himself and his opponent to Goguryeo, which was completely different from Li Lu's side, and the spies he sent to Broken Leaves were like mud cows entering the sea, and there was no news.And Goguryeo's side is completely different, starting from his grandfather Li Yuan, Chang'an sent a large number of envoys and spies to Goguryeo, and Li Er even mastered the territory map of Goguryeo, which made Li Zhi know the state of Goguryeo's national military facilities such as cities, towns, and territories well, and had a deeper understanding of Goguryeo's troop strategy, strategic layout, customs and people's conditions.Now that he had made up his mind to kill Goguryeo, he began to consult with his prime ministers, and after soliciting many opinions, Li Zhi and his courtiers finally decided to adopt the strategy of attacking from the north and south to destroy Baekje first, leaving Goguryeo isolated and helpless.Then, after consolidating its rule in Baekje, it then united with Silla to achieve a north-south attack with the Tang army in Liaodong.Objectively speaking, Chang'an came up with this strategic idea is still very ingenious, since Li Zhi ascended the throne in the past few years, the Tang army has not relaxed the attack on Goguryeo, they have launched several times against Goguryeo both land and water disturbance warfare, one is to harass the land of Liaodong from the land, and on the other hand, to send soldiers with amphibious combat capabilities, from the Shandong Peninsula by warship, from the Goguryeo mainland.Adopt the tactics of attacking when it is weak and retreating when it is strong.This flexible tactic put Goguryeo in crisis all the time, and the whole country was afraid and tired, and in such a situation, if the north and south were to be flanked again, then Goguryeo would inevitably be unable to escape the fate of destruction.On the fifth day of the sixth month of the sixth year of Yonghui, Li Zhi officially issued an edict to send troops to rescue Silla, he took Xue Rengui, the general of the right military guard, as the general of the Shenqiu Road, and led the right Xiaowei general Liu Boying and other 100,000 troops by land and water to attack Baekje and rescue Silla.Li Zhi was ready to use this wave of military operations to achieve the grand goal that even his father had not achieved: to recapture the four Han counties set up in the Han Dynasty, restore the Han rule over the Korean Peninsula, and also carve his name Li Zhi in history.In addition, this wave of his military operations is to cut off the henchman Goguryeo, so that he can concentrate all his forces and have a final decisive battle with the bastard brother-in-law in his heart in the west.Just when Li Zhi held a departure ceremony for Xue Rengui and returned to the palace, he suddenly received news from Lingnan, saying that the eldest grandson's family, especially the eldest grandson Chong's family, had disappeared, which was a major event that would cost people's lives, and they did not dare to hide it, so they quickly reported the news to Li Zhi."
Waste, a bunch of waste, even these toothless tigers of the Changsun family can't look at it, it's really a bunch of waste....."
After Li Zhi saw the report, he was naturally furious."
Your Majesty, don't complain about those magistrates, there is the one in the west, in a place like Lingnan where the emperor is far away, it's not easy to save them??"
Hearing Li Zhi's anger, Wu Xu smiled slightly and clenched Li Zhi's hand, "Your Majesty, don't forget, the relationship between the Lingnan Feng family and Li Lu is not shallow......
Hehehe, as for the eldest grandson's family, let's leave when they leave, and it will be difficult to come back again....."
Hearing his lover's sentence "It's hard to come back again....."
Li Zhi couldn't help but think so, but Li Xiaojiu, is this sentence so absolutely really good?
