Chapter 577 Open eyes and close eyes
"Qin San of Dog Day."
In Luoyang Palace, Emperor Li Shimin couldn't help scolding his mother after hearing Hou Junji's accusation. Hou Junji knelt in the hall, and was delighted to hear that, he was the emperor's confidant, when he accompanied the emperor to conquer the east and west, he often guarded the tent, and he often heard him scold his mother when he was angry.
The emperor scolded Xue Ju, the overlord of the Western Qin Dynasty, Liu Wuzhou of Mayi, Wang Shichong of Luoyang, and even Liu Heita. The emperor scolded people before. After the door, after he became the crown prince, he paid more and more attention to his image.
Even in private, it is rare to see the emperor scolding his mother like this. Even if he is extremely angry, he will at most overturn a royal case. But today, the emperor scolded his mother again, and he also scolded such vulgar words as the doggy Qin San.
This shows that the emperor is really annoyed.
His impeachment worked.
The repeated impeachments of Tang Jian and Zheng Yuanxuan, and later the personal accusation by Hou Junji, made Li Shimin understand that Qin Lang had many problems, and they were not small.
This kid is really like a kite with a broken string, already floating.
Although reason told him that Qin Lang was a smart young man and shouldn't have changed so much, Tang Jian, Zheng Yuanxuan, Hou Junji, the three princes, three important court officials, and even a prime minister had no reason to To wrong him.
Thinking that this boy Qin Lang was so drifting away, the emperor couldn't help but become extremely angry.
"This **** is getting more and more presumptuous! One wave is not flat, this is another wave. He is addicted to fighting. When this **** was in the court, he was just like his mother Wei Xuancheng. Crying that we can't fight, we have to restrain ourselves, saying that we don't want to fight unprepared battles, and now we're on the frontier, so he's the one who's leading the fight, tougher than anyone else."
Hou Junji was very happy at first, he lowered his head and couldn't help wanting to laugh, but as he listened, the more he listened, the more he felt something was wrong, the emperor scolded him harshly, it shouldn't be the wrath of thunder, and then summoned the Hanlin Chengzhi Bachelor If Qin Lang's prime minister is dismissed and Qin Lang's position is cut in Baima, at the very least, Yousi will have to bring him back to Luoyang to interrogate him.
But why did the emperor's words sound as cordial as ever?
"The courage is really getting bigger and bigger. The Longyou Ninth Army, 27,000 frontier soldiers, and another 54,000 auxiliary soldiers, are bold and have a big appetite. They actually want to get everything done in three months. In the first three months of spring, he sent troops to fight back, trying to destroy Tuyuhun with his own strength, what a guy, he's so crazy."
Hou Junji really heard it now, the emperor is really unparalleled to the surname of Qin. There's no sense of blaming this, it's clearly showing extreme protection.
"Your Majesty, Qin Lang is really too bold and reckless. This is betting the whole of Longyou, betting on his personal future. Longyou has experienced two major battles within a year in a short period of time. His vitality was seriously injured. Now Qin Lang doesn't care about it, and wants to destroy Tuyuhun after three months. Isn't this a dream? A proud soldier will lose, and a long-term bet will lose. Datang can't afford to gamble now, let alone lose, absolutely can't let Qin Lang Lang took the imperial court to gamble on his personal future and reputation, I ask His Majesty to immediately issue an imperial edict to remove him from all positions, and send you to **** him back to the capital for questioning."
"And immediately withdraw from the camp of the general manager of the Xikaidao March. After the war is over, he will return to Luoyang, return the soldiers to the military mansion, and store the swords and guns."
Li Shimin narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at Hou Junji.
Although he is a confidant, he has surpassed some words.
Whether to stop the camp, whether to end the war, these are the decisions of the emperor, not to mention, it is the emperor's prerogative to stop worshiping the prime minister.
Although Hou Junji is the prime minister, he is only a member of the prime minister who participates in politics, and his qualifications and prestige are still very light. When will it be his turn to say this.
"You have worked **** your mission to comfort Longyou this time. Go back to rest first. You don't have to go to the political affairs hall to participate in political affairs for the time being. After you rest, you can concentrate on doing a good job in the Ministry of War. The meritorious deeds that should be sorted out, those who should be promoted, those who should be awarded honors, and those who should be rewarded and pensioned are all in place."
The emperor suddenly spoke lightly, and Hou Junji was startled, and broke out in a cold sweat. What does the emperor mean? Don't go to the political affairs hall for the time being, let him concentrate on the affairs of the Ministry of War?
Could it be that the emperor was dissatisfied with him and wanted to dismiss him?
This is unreasonable, Qin Sanlang acts so arrogantly, why can the emperor tolerate it, but instead he conscientiously works for the emperor, but suffers from this injustice?
Hou Junji almost shed tears, the majestic seven-foot man, kneeling on the ground is too wronged.
But the emperor seemed to turn a blind eye, just waved his hand, "Retire, I have also summoned the auxiliary machine to discuss matters."
Hou Junji had no choice but to back down.
Walking out of the main hall and standing on the steps at the entrance of the hall, he happened to meet Changsun Wuji who was climbing up the steps. The two looked at each other, and Hou Junji hurriedly bowed and crossed his hands to salute.
The eldest grandson returned the salute with his crossed hands straight, and then said something, Mr. Hou has worked hard, and walked up the steps to pass him by.
In the temple.
The emperor's attitude towards Changsun Wuji was obviously much more cordial than when he was treating Hou Junji just now.
The eldest grandson sat on his knees, "Longyou has a lot of news recently, and it's a bit chaotic. All kinds of true and false news are flying around, disturbing people's eyes and ears, and I can't tell the truth from the false for a while."
Li Shimin laughed.
"Generally speaking, there is a lot of good news. Tuyuhun has been completely repelled. Cheng Yaojin also asked Qin Lang for five thousand soldiers and horses to fight all the way to Fucheng City and captured Fuyun's royal city." Speaking of capturing the royal city. Here, Li Shimin smiled, such a capture of the royal city can only be regarded as a joke.
But in general, it is indeed a good result.
The Longyou War had a bad start. Li Daoyan Jiemeng sent the start, which caused Diezhou and Taozhou to face a headwind. Right in a hurry.
Fortunately, Qin Lang created another big miracle. Qin Qiong was even more veteran than others, and directly swept away the party's lair, and finally recruited more than 300,000 people.
Qin Lang then swept away the enemies who invaded Longyou, and with a swift and swift momentum, the killed Dangxiang and Tuyuhun were defeated, and Longyou also turned the crisis around.
Cheng Yaojin's cross-border counterattack was just better than nothing, but it did test out some truths of Tuyuhun.
Tuyuhun still did not lose his spirit of being a thief, he couldn't get on the stage, he only knew to take advantage of the situation to rob.
At this stage, everything is going well. Although Datang suffered a lot, Li Daoyan lost more than 20,000 people, Taozhou was slaughtered, and Longyou was invaded and plundered, but the problem of Dangxiang was solved once and for all. Tuyuhun People have also been hit hard.
If both sides calm down, they should be able to keep the frontier stable for two or three years.
But Qin Lang, this boy, actually bypassed the court, directly recruited troops, added more frontier troops, and even shouted the slogan of exterminating Tuyuhun in March, he even boldly bypassed the court.
This kind of taboo thing, this kid is really not afraid of doing it.
"This kid is too bold." Li Shimin said.
Eldest Sun Wuji smiled, "Qin Sanlang is 20 years old this year, he has won two great victories in Longyou, and he has played with prestige and confidence. It is normal for him to be young and energetic for a while."
The emperor said the same thing, but Changsun Wuji answered completely differently from Hou Junji.
Li Shimin smiled slightly, obviously satisfied with this answer.
"I also think that although this kid is lawless, he does have skills. I also thought he was lucky in the past few small trials, but in the two battles of Longyou, this kid really showed his prestige and ability. Whether it is The overall strategy, or the battle tactics, this kid really has a feeling that he is better than blue, when Qin Qiong was this age, he was still only in the tent of the Sui Dynasty."
"Even at my age, I was defeated by Qianshuiyuan."
The grandson hurriedly said, "In the Battle of Qianshuiyuan, Your Majesty suddenly suffered from malaria and was unable to command the troops. Liu Wenjing underestimated the enemy and led to the defeat. It has nothing to do with Your Majesty."
"Auxiliary machine, you said that if I open my eyes and close my eyes and let this kid toss, is he really capable of creating another miracle, Mie Tuyuhun in March?"
The eldest grandson thought for a while, and finally said, "Difficult!"
Even if Qin Lang really bypassed the court in three months, supplemented the 20,000 frontier troops in the nine towns, and raised money and food by withholding taxes, raising loans, etc., but the time is too short, three months can barely A team of tens of thousands of troops was put together, but after all, the number was too small and the tacit understanding was insufficient.
The key point is that Tuyuhun is a country of thousands of miles, and it is a nomadic country. Fu Yun is also treacherous and cunning, and rarely confronts the Central Plains in a decisive battle. As long as Fu Yun refuses to fight and avoids fighting, how can Qin Lang be wiped out in three months? Tuyuhun?
As time goes by, Qin Lang's logistical supplies will definitely not be able to keep up.
"Actually, it's not impossible. I followed Qin Lang's idea and advised him." Li Shimin came to the screen and pointed to the map of Longyou Tuyuhun on it, "Look, if Qin Lang can really combine these two With 17,000 main troops and 54,000 auxiliary soldiers, and able to raise food and grass for the army to attack in March, then if Qin Lang can seize the opportunity, he will catch Fu Yun by surprise and find a way to surround Fu Yun in Fu Yun. In the vicinity of Tengcheng, forcing Fu Yun's main force to fight a decisive battle, then with Qin Lang's fighting skills, he should have a winning rate of about 70%."
Changsun Wuji has never commanded soldiers and fought wars, but he followed Li Shimin to conquer east and west, and he is good at talking about soldiers on paper.
"Your Majesty, the problem is that Fu Yun is a treacherous old man. I'm afraid he won't easily give Qin Lang a chance for a decisive battle. Once Qin Lang attacks, Fu Yun will immediately retreat, no matter if he retreats into the northern mountains and defends against danger. Qin Lang would be very embarrassed if he retreated westward into the depths of the grassland, or directly across the desert, if he pursued, it would be dangerous for his army to go deep alone, and if he didn't pursue, he would have no chance."
This is the loss and mistake Yang Guang suffered and made before. When the Sui army conquered Tuyuhun, Fu Yun dealt with Yang Guang in this way.
Later, Yang Guang sent more troops, but Fuyun fled all the way west. The Sui army only occupied the empty Fucheng City and set up four counties including Xihai County. Do not withdraw the main force. But as soon as the main force of the Sui army withdrew, Tuyuhun immediately made a comeback and quickly recaptured Fuqi City.
The Sui Dynasty's Pingtuyuhun strategy also declared a complete failure.
In Changsun Wuji's view, to destroy Tuyuhun, at least one hundred thousand soldiers must be mobilized.
But Qin Lang obviously did not have this condition.
