.Chapter 42 becomes a sigh

It was very late, Li Wei came back and after dinner, he had to review the memorials.

Guan Wan'er said heartbrokenly: "Your Majesty, don't work so hard."

"You don't understand that the soldiers of the country are far from being founded. There are various reasons, and there is another thing that people ignore, and the spirit of martial arts declines. In the past, Wei Zheng and others said that China is the root and Hu Yi is the branches and leaves. It is not only wealth, but also the factors of soldiers. Using Hu against Hu, although the casualties of the people in the Central Plains have been reduced, over time, the martial arts of the Central Plains have decreased sharply and their combat effectiveness has decreased, and the Hu people will become more and more light. This is also a bad development direction. The opening of military affairs supervisors and military exercises will not only select and train generals, but also improve the martial arts style of the whole people."

The Tang Dynasty had a better martial spirit than the Song Dynasty.

Even now, most young people on the streets are wearing swords and swaying across the market. There are many fighting incidents. Moreover, each yamen runner has an unwritten consensus that they should not stop during a fight. This is an immoral behavior. To deal with it, you have to wait until they are finished and see if anyone is injured or no one is injured. Just laugh it off, someone is injured and then arrested.

However, Li Shimin was smartly aware that he could win the world but could not rule the world, so he changed it to civilized rule. Therefore, the temple name was not Emperor Wu, but Emperor Taizong Wen, who forcibly turned the country to a normal development track. However, he himself repeatedly emphasized the preparation of martial arts, but many people misunderstood and believed that civilized rule was everything. So when Li Ji died, Li Zhi randomly used the commander and even used Li Jingxuan as the commander of Qinghai. As well as the corruption of the military system of the palace, many people even tried every means to escape military service.

Still martial, but not far from the past.

It can also be seen on the battlefield that the Han soldiers and Tubo soldiers are not against each other's opponents. Therefore, Li Wei has been using some Han soldiers and Han generals, which is to polish them, and to keep the court from having a strong Han army, even if it is like his own, the Xianbei army was the core force of the Tang Dynasty. Li Shimin used Hu generals at the time to constrain the heroes, but now it is not necessary. It is time to correct.

For example, trees, branches and leaves can provide feedback. They cannot ignore the fundamental interests and give nutrition to branches and leaves. This tree will definitely die. If you want to go to the Wanhu Dynasty, you must have an army that can serve ten in the country like in the early Tang Dynasty. With the population base and wealth, the Tang Dynasty can truly become a monster in this world.

But I dare not say it out.

As he was speaking, Pei Yuhe came in and reported: "Your Majesty, you are very happy."

"Why are you happy?"

"The imperial doctor diagnosed that Ye Ci was happy," he said, looking at Li Wei with a strange expression.

Li Wei knew that Pei Yuhe from Wulu clan did not know, but the daughters of the Eastern Palace were all born in a cold and poor family. Xu Li was a little better, but she was a daughter. Jiang Bier was born in a civilian and Di Hui was born in a fireworks place. However, she did not have the strange origin of Ye Ci Mingyue, a Dangxiang person.

However, she felt a little relieved. She herself had no pressure, so she was very proactive every time she took the initiative, even put down her body and went back to her parents' home to ask her mother for some sex techniques. She thought it was good, but the girls didn't want to have a child. Li Wei was young, but she had to ask for it every night, and her body couldn't bear it. The quality of the tadpole was also a problem, which reduced the possibility of everyone's conception. Fortunately, Li Wei took the initiative to control it, otherwise even Ye Ci Mingyue might not have.

Li Wei was also stunned and said, "Go and take a look."

...

It got colder.

The battle report soon spread to Luoyang again.

Xiao Siye won several battles, but a serious problem arose.

In advance warning, this time the preparations were more than history, and there were relatively more troops stationed. In addition, a large amount of food, grass and weapons were sent to the Turkic garrison camp in advance. It was not defense. To wipe out the army, we had to fight everywhere, and food, grass and grass were also mobilized.

At first, the Turks were beaten by the Tang Dynasty and were a little afraid. Seeing that there were few Tang troops on the front battlefield, although they had very strong combat power, and with Xiao Siye's command, he turned his mind to the grain noodles. If you can't beat you, I will intercept your food and grass. If you can intercept it, you can't intercept it, and burn it on the spot.

Losing food and grass, Xiao Siye's army gradually became embarrassing.

After seeing the war report, Li Wei rudely criticized him, "You are stupid, you have no food, do you have any enemies?" The enemy has no food, do you have cattle, horses and sheep, and if you don't eat pasta, you will die if you eat meat. They all rebelled, and battles have started one after another, and life has fallen into a pool of blood. What kind of benevolence do you have to do to them? Besides, how many troops do you have in your hands, and the Turkic divisions loyal to the Tang royal family, have no more than 20,000 to 30,000 people, not 20,000 to 300,000 people, and they cannot be maintained by plunder. After writing, they immediately use horses and speed to deliver them to Xiao Siye.

Otherwise, don’t drag it to the court’s army, and it is very likely that Xiao Siye’s army will be defeated within one month. Then the battle situation can spread to the border, which will greatly hinder the entire military arrangement.

The letter was sent away, but Li Wei sighed.

Swearing is an attitude, but Li Wei can know what Xiao Siye thinks in his heart.

The two ministers who were lazy in the court, Pei Xingjian, said that Li Jing became a general and a prime minister, but Li Jing did not do a good job as a prime minister. However, what about Pei Xingjian? After so many years of selection in the Ministry of Personnel, all the people he selected were qualified. He also put forward many suggestions, some excellent reforms, extensive knowledge, and famous backgrounds. Whether in terms of merit, qualifications, or reputation, they can serve as prime ministers. However, so many prime ministers in the court have not had the chance to be Pei Xingjian.

The second is Xiao Siye. His achievements and family background and qualifications are not as good as those of the court. Anyone like Jiang Ke can serve as the left prime minister, but Xiao Siye is over 60 years old and is resurrected in the desert.

The reason is very simple. Pei Xingjian offended his mother. Xiao Siye is a relative of Concubine Xiao Shu. Therefore, he acted cautiously and avoided fear of others using it for making trouble. But once this weakness is magnified, it will be fatal on the battlefield.

Moreover, Li Wei vaguely felt that Xiao Siye could not finish his achievements after this battle.

The Tang Dynasty's defeat in the south of the desert sounded the horn of victory in the other direction.

Pei Xingjian's career is very strange, even more than the stories in the Romance of Legends. The army set out at a very fast speed and could not delay any longer. The old general was old and had a high heart and wanted to come back and make contributions to the Eastern Turks. Anyway, since the Emperor was alive in the past few years, he didn't want to be the prime minister. It would be better to make more military achievements and leave his name in history.

Then he arrived at the Moheyan Desert, and the wind and sand were raging, and the guide also lost his direction. In fact, Pei Xingjian later quietly told Li Wei that the truth was that he had been in Xizhou for several years and was familiar with the local terrain and climate. The loss of direction was his deliberate act. After several big circles, the soldiers were hungry and thirsty. Pei Xingjian spoke, stopped his troops to pay tribute to the sky, and then said to his subordinates: "The spring water is not far away."

Just like a charlatan, everyone was skeptical. Soon after, the clouds scattered and the wind stopped. The army set out and walked not far. Sure enough, they found a place with abundant water and grass. Everyone was surprised and compared him to Li Guangli, the general of the Han Dynasty who was famous in the desert. It doesn't matter if the praise is mainly due to morale. Thousands of soldiers at a time, and they regained their confidence in Pei Xingjian. Otherwise, what should I do? Ashinadu and Li Zhetu have more than 100,000 soldiers under their command, but they have no confidence and cannot deal with it.

After regaining confidence, the army set out immediately and arrived in Xizhou. It was mid-August, but the desert Gobi area was still very hot during the day. Many envoys from the small vassal states came to greet them. Not everyone was willing to follow Li Zhefu to rebel. Half of the few tribes in the Western Regions are now loyal to the Tang Dynasty. Then Pei Xingjian threatened in front of these people: "The weather is too hot, so we can't move forward anymore. We want to garrison troops here. By the end of September, we will have to trouble each tribe."

There were not many troops, only a few thousand people, and it was not difficult for each unit to support it. Besides, it was not long, for a month. So the army was stationed. The cantaloupe and grapes were ripe. They ate sweet fruits and drank authentic Western wine, looking like they were happy.

The slogan he used to make during this trip was to escort the Persian king back to his country. When he saw Pei Xingjian again, Ashina was not prepared for it anymore.

After a few days, the old general drank almost the same wine and ate almost the same fruits. He said to each tribe: "I want to hunt, who would like to share with me?"

Pei Xingjian was an important official of the Tang Dynasty. He also heard that he was the emperor's army. When he heard that he was going to hunt, the one of these tribes did not flatter him. He roared and more than 10,000 people came to follow him. In addition, the army brought by Pei Xingjian, it became more than 20,000 people in a few days. The army hunted everywhere casually, drank wine and ate meat at night, and sang and danced. In fact, it was possible to pass the hunt, Pei Xingjian was also setting up the arrangement. How did you lead your troops to hunt from, and from which direction, and Li, led your troops to encircle from that direction. A hunting process, more than 20,000 troops allowed him to integrate like a skill. Even the chief themselves did not know this change.

A very magical scene, no less than some clips in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Anyway, if Li Wei does it, he will definitely not be able to do it.

Traveling everywhere, suddenly, he was too light and rushed. This history was too mythical. Later generations were very curious and found it. Pei Xingjian's route was from Turpan to Urumqi Gorge, Changji Ancient City, with mountains on all sides. If the speed of the march was very fast, it would be difficult to find out. Besides, Ashinaduzhi and Li Zhefu could not be considered a real rebellion against the Tang Dynasty. This was different from the Eastern Turks. It had always been favorable to the Western Turks. Dashi and Tubo fought against the Tang Dynasty very tacitly, Tubo fought against Qinghai and the Western Regions, and Dashi fought for the Hezhong region. Therefore, the Tang Dynasty allowed the Western Turks to retain the title of Khan to show their favor. Even Wang Fangyi captured Li Zhefu, the Tang Dynasty gave him the opportunity to repent and was released immediately.

The gentleness of this policy made Ashinatu's rebellious mind not strong. He was instigated by Lun Qinling and wanted to rebel, but his idea was not decided. He just made an appointment with Li Zhefu to fight against the Tang Dynasty after the autumn. In addition, Pei Xingjian did a good job in the illusion, but he was not prepared for it.

As a result, Pei Xingjian's more than 20,000 hunting team suddenly hit his home like a god of heaven.

Ashina didn't believe it, so he sent someone to inquire. Don't try to inquire. It was only a few miles away. Pei Xingjian's hunting army arrived at his camp. Ashina was at a loss. She sat in the tent in a daze. His confidant said, "Where is the khan, escape."

"Where can you escape? Since the Tang Dynasty has arrived at my mouth without anyone noticing, are they not wary of me to escape?"
