Chapter 106 Promoted to General

When Luo Shixin walked into the Tai Chi Hall, he had a wonderful premonition in his heart.

The Tai Chi Hall is the most solemn holy place in the entire Li Tang Dynasty, and is a place where large-scale dynasties are held. Most of the emperor ascended the throne, enthroned the queen, crown prince, princess ceremony, and banquets for tribute envoys are held in this hall.

If it were a simple small reward, Li Yuan would not have to choose to summon him in Tai Chi Hall. With such a grand posture, there would be no thunder and raindrops!

With a slight excitement, Luo Shixin completed the greeting to Li Yuan.

Li Yuangao sat on the dragon throne and looked at Luo Shixin, feeling extremely excited: Luo Shixin's beautiful two battles completely saved Li Tang's face.

For Li Yuan, the Turks were a great shame and an unscrupulous pain in his heart.

Li Yuan raised an army in Taiyuan. Before he gained a foothold in Taiyuan, the Turks became his major concern, and the vest was thorny. He had no choice but to compromise, make friends with the Turks, and embraced the Turks in exchange for an opportunity to attack Guanzhong.

After entering Guanzhong, Li Yuan faced a chaotic situation. If he wanted to unify the world, he would be even less likely to get along with the Turks who were far stronger than Li Tang. He could only compromise again. The Tang Dynasty completed the great unification under the concerted efforts of Li Shimin, Li Xiaogong and the civil and military officials of the court. However, the result of the great turmoil at the end of the Sui Dynasty led to a sharp decline of three-quarters of the population in the world. Li Yuan faced the tragic situation of barren villages and towns and no rooster crowing for a hundred miles. At the time of the matter, the world was settled, and all things were in trouble. The people could barely survive, so how could they have the ability to fight the Turks?

In this difficult situation, Yang Guang's experience of forcing the war has already been learned from Yang Guang, so Li Yuan once again chose to bow to the Turks.

As an emperor and an ambitious emperor, only Li Yuan himself knew how heartwarming it was to make this decision. But he knew even more that he had to endure it. The great Han Dynasty was made by Emperor Wu of Han, but if the two emperors Wen and Jing had not been married for years, what would Emperor Wu of Han use to show the great Han Dynasty?

Li Yuan believed that his tolerance would give his descendants the opportunity to exhale and raise his eyebrows. Therefore, he couldn't bear it, but he had to endure it.

Therefore, Li Yuan has always adopted a policy of seeking peace to the outside world, and he will not fight if he can. Although Li Jiancheng was appointed to be responsible for the defense of the Turks, he lacked the determination and belief to use real force. Once the Turks invaded, they wanted to seek peace, and gave money and materials to get the opportunity to recuperate.

This time, the Turks dispatched 200,000 troops, and Li Yuan also planned to use the old method to force the retreating Turks with his troops and then send people to seek peace.

As a result, Luo Shixin easily killed Jie Li's confidant Si Lixie and destroyed 20,000 Turkic soldiers. The other two groups also achieved considerable results and killed nearly 10,000 enemies.

The 200,000 Turkic army lost 30,000, but Jie Li didn't dare to fight again. He ran away in shame and retreated to the grassland.

Because of the outstanding performance of Luo Shixin, Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng, Li Yuan discovered that Li Tang did not seek peace, and the Turks did not send anyone to ask for money and goods to withdraw their troops.

As a result of this battle, Li Yuan saw another possibility and found that he had wealth that Emperor Wen and Jing did not have, that is, his two extremely outstanding sons, as well as generals like Li Jing, Li Shiji, and Luo Shixin who were good at fighting might not be necessary to retreat blindly.

It can be said that the two duels that Luo Shixin changed history made Li Yuan realize that Li Tang's civil and military affairs were not as weak as he imagined, and that the Turks were not as powerful as he imagined.

They can still fight!

Even without that economic expedition, self-protection is not a big problem.

Li Yuan was not angry. When he saw the possibility of being unable to bear the anger, he was naturally unwilling to leave a stigma in history. Who would choose the former if an emperor chose between the two Emperors Wen and Jing and Hanwu?

Li Yuan had no other negative feelings about Luo Shixin who made him realize this.

What's more, the man standing in front of him is his daughter's savior. If Pingyang had not made a quick decision at the beginning, if Luo Shixin had not invited Sun Simiao back from Goguryeo for a lifetime, then his precious daughter would have been going to let him send a white-haired man to a black-haired man.

I appreciate and appreciate it and a little bit of gratitude.

This is also the reason why he specially invited Luo Shixin to the main hall of Taiji Hall to choose to be awarded and enthroned.

Li Yuan watched for a long time and said loudly: "Luo Shixin, come forward and listen to the seal!"

Luo Shixin didn't know Li Yuan's thoughts, so he couldn't think too much at this time. He stepped forward and said, "I will hear the seal!"

"Luo Shixin, the Right Guard General of the Shangzhu Kingdom of Tan, was extremely wise and brave. He created his own Modao Army formation to defeat the Turks, defeated the enemy, killed the enemy chief, defended our homeland, promoted the power of the Tang Dynasty, and had great achievements. He was a leader of a hundred battles and was a enemy of ten thousand men. He was specially awarded the position of General of the Right Guard, and had an additional fief of 100..."

Luo Shixin was stunned and confused!

Really confused!

When I heard the General of the Right Guard, my head seemed to be knocking a stick. I didn’t hear anything I said later, and it didn’t matter. What was important was “General of the Right Guard”.

Luo Shixin could think that the reward this time might be quite large, one because of his military achievements, and the other because he saved Princess Pingyang's life. Although this is not a military achievement, he is the emperor's daughter at least. He has worked hard without any contribution. He has an excellent impression that no matter how rewards are, he will have more rewards.

But he never thought that he would be granted the title of General of the Right Guard, who was the position of General and held a real military power, and Li Tang's military core.

In terms of merits alone, it is not enough to be a general with Luo Shixin as a general, but it is still enough. The problem is that it is not enough to have military achievements in the position of a general, and it also requires various external factors.

Luo Shixin has no family background, and is still very experienced and has a bad age.

The twenty-year-old general, Luo Shixin, who was born in the common people, even from aristocratic families, had no such precedent.

Although Luo Shixin felt that he would receive a good reward this time, he had never thought that he could be promoted to the general of the Right Guard, which was beyond his expectations. He couldn't help but glance at Li Jiancheng who was beside him.

Li Jiancheng smiled helplessly, obviously he already knew Li Yuan's appointment.

This is also the reason why he was confused. Luo Shixin has now gained the trust and respect of Li Yuan and became the General of the Right Guard. Then his status cannot be easily shaken by anyone. Even as the prince, he was not moved just by facing a general of the twelve guards who held military power. What's more, Luo Shixin is highly respected by Li Yuan for some reason, so Li Jiancheng dared not challenge Li Yuan.

He was highly regarded by the emperor, so it was not surprising that he had cursed Luo Shixin in reverse. Now that he wanted to win over Luo Shixin, it would naturally take ten times more effort, and it depends on whether he would like to.

After an accident, Luo Shixin gradually returned to peace. He reached this point because of his own strength and no support. Huo Qubing was able to serve as the General of the Cavalry in his twentieth year. Why can Luo Shixin be the General of the Right Guard?

Thinking of this, Luo Shixin said loudly: "Your Majesty rewards."
