Chapter 45 Impeachment

What Ma Zhou wanted to say was like Zheng Liwan, and he also wanted to know about Shuofang's affairs and take precautions early.

Luo Shixin just smiled and said as if he answered Zheng Liwan's answer: "This real man does something and does not do anything. He uses strategic materials without any voluntarily, which really violates the basic law. I have my reasons, and in the current situation, I must do this. I do it if I do it, I am afraid that others will not say it? There is no need to make a fuss, and if I have punishment, I will be punished. Since there is this regulation, there is no need to consider how to avoid it. Isn't it better to accept it openly? What is the key to accepting it? A clear conscience is the key."

Ma Zhou bowed in a state of emotion when he heard this and said, "The general has noble virtues, Ma Zhou admires it."

"Ha, don't praise me for being so great. I just suffered and know that feeling. The people of Shuofang are also our compatriots. Their sufferings are also because our Tang Dynasty intends to take Shuofang without bloodshed. The purpose has been achieved. How can we sit back and wait for them to suffer without even asking?" Luo Shixin said as he patted Ma Zhou's shoulder as comforted and returned to the crowd.

Ma Zhou looked at Luo Shixin with an indifferent attitude and smiled faintly.

As usual, Luo Shixin distributed a small portion of the strategic materials he obtained to the soldiers who went to the expedition, including meat, skin, barley and other foods, and left them with big heads. As for the old rules, cattle, sheep, and horses, all the cattle, sheep and other things, but he had no one to take care of the cattle, sheep. As for the war horses, after some thought, Luo Shixin this time, in addition to handing over all the mares to produce, he returned the nine thousand war horses borrowed from Tuli, and also invited 30,000 additional military horses to Li Tang.

It’s not that Luo Shixin is rich and generous, he is really forced to do so.

It turns out that there are too many people and few meats. Staring at a piece of meat is like staring at a peerless beauty. For the sake of 180 horses, two highly qualified generals will even start arguing.

When Luo Shixin was the general of the Right Guard, he tried to find a way to ask for horses, but no one was willing to bird him. In the end, he had to come to Li Jiancheng. Li Jiancheng gave him two hundred horses in the face of the prince. At that time, it was not ordinary pitiful.

But now Luo Shixin finds that it is not easy to have too much meat and few people.

Luo Shixin's border soldiers were under the jurisdiction of only 30,000. However, the 15,000 war horses assigned to him by Li Shimin and the more than 13,000 military horses he plundered for the first time, if we count the more than 65,000 now, we will eliminate some of the dead. The nearly 90,000 military horses in his hand.

Thirty thousand soldiers have ninety thousand horses, which is too luxurious in this Central Plains, which lacks war horses. Moreover, the feed that 90,000 horses have to eat in a day is hard to afford. Not to mention the feed that is conditioned, even the most basic and ordinary horse grass is a astronomical figure.

The situation in front of Luo Shixin is that he has too much meat to hold on. So he is more generous and allocates 30,000 to the court. Thirty thousand soldiers and sixty thousand horses are enough.

The Tang Dynasty still lacks horses now, and has not yet developed to such a terrifying level as 740,000 troops and horses in the future. These 30,000 horses are still in need.

Especially Li Jing and Li Shiji, they also need enough military support.

Luo Shixin also distributed the latest Napi Soap Armor to the soldiers who went to fight against the Turks for the first time this time. This warrior who retreated from the battlefield deserves respect and love from the people.

Another gain of fame and fortune. Another brilliant victory, the morale and fighting spirit of most border soldiers were raised.

Especially when listening to the soldiers who had experienced the war, Luo Shi said his experiences along the way. His style of telling him will do his best and leading by example also made Bian Bing realize that this newly appointed general is a trustworthy person.

The soldiers who missed the first opportunity and did not have the second chance turned their attention to the next competition. They would never miss this opportunity, and the soldiers practiced more hard.

************

Chang'an East Palace.

Li Shimin looked at the two impeachment memorials in front of him and thoughtfully considered some things.

Although he is not an emperor now, he is no longer different from the emperor. Except for the first day of every month and the fifteenth day of the lunar month, Li Yuan lived his life as the emperor.

Li Jiancheng was demoted to Western Shu, and Li Yuanji had been missing for two years. Li Yuan had no hope for his survival.

Regarding Li Shimin, Li Yuan certainly recognized his ability and believed that he could become a better Emperor of the Tang Dynasty than him, but he still had some problems with his design to deal with Li Jiancheng, and he was not as close as before.

He has always valued love and closeness and experienced the troubles brought by power. Li Yuan, who originally valued the extra treatment of government affairs, was even less in a mood to deal with government affairs, and handed them all over to Li Shimin and Pei Ji.

According to the blueprint planned by Li Shimin, the future military of the Tang Dynasty will be handed over to the four people of Li Jing, Li Shiji, Luo Shixin and Hou Junji. In his opinion, these four people are all people with extraordinary military capabilities, and they are comparable to Wang Jian, Meng Tian, ​​Meng Tian, ​​and Wei Qing, and Huo Qubing under Emperor Wu of Han. Hou Junji's military achievements are somewhat insufficient, and now they are Li Jing, Li Shiji, and Luo Shixin first.

Among them, he valued the most by Luo Shixin. It was not that Luo Shixin's ability was stronger than the previous two, but because of his concern. It was because of his outstanding achievements in supporting him as the crown prince. He naturally valued it even more.

Recently, he was given two memorials that impeached Luo Shixin to act recklessly and act arbitrarily. In the memorial, Luo Shixin did things that he did during his tenure as the governor of Qingzhou, such as holding this event and holding that project without authorization. The crucial thing is to handle things in Shuofang beyond his authority and distribute Shuofang food to the people without authorization, and deliberately win over the hearts of the people.

It was not Luo Shixin's turn to give orders like this, but he gave this order, and with knowledge of the matter, he issued this order: there was something wrong with this.

"Or what if you want to hand over these two memorials to Your Majesty?" Seeing that Li Shimin was considering the impeachment of Luo Shixin in the past two days, he thought he was in a dilemma and didn't know how to deal with it. Fang Xuanling also made an opinion.

Li Shimin said: "You don't understand your father's personality? This letter was passed to your father, and the one who suffered the real disaster was Liu Min and Liu Lan. The father never cared about such trivial matters about his own people, just like the old brother and I, who had twice the amount of guards in the mansion. He turned a blind eye, let alone just ordered some people to be relieved?"

"What does your highness mean?" Fang Xuanling asked himself that he was the counselor who had been following the man in front of him for the longest time. He knew him very well, but sometimes, he still couldn't know what he was thinking.

"It's okay!" Li Shimin smiled and said, "I just wanted to verify something. I was wondering if I had seen the right person or misunderstood..." He did not explain, but said, "The official documents from Qingzhou should be here. If they arrive, I will send them to me as soon as possible."

At noon that day, Fang Xuanling handed over to Li Shimin with a thin document.

Li Shimin opened the official document bag with some doubts. The official document was too small. When he opened it, he realized that the official document was just a few thin pieces of paper. His handwriting was beautiful and powerful. Recently, most of the official documents sent by Luo Shixin were the same. He also knew that the person who wrote it was a rare talent... Ma Zhou knew that Luo Shixin lacked talents, and it was not easy. He just recorded this character and did not spend time prying out Luo Shixin's corner.

Seeing his letter, Li Shimin was even more curious in surprise. He looked at the letter carefully and couldn't help laughing: "This Ma Zhou underestimates me, Li Shimin. He really regards me as stupid and foolish. He was bewitched by just a few impeachments and could not be manipulated? But this person is really not simple. He even told Liu Min and Liu Lan's thoughts in one sentence, and guessed their intentions. What's even more rare is that every word is gem, and his words are full of straightforward and arrogant spirit. It's amazing, and it's really amazing. This person reminds me of Wei Zheng, who is resourceful and upright, and really looks a bit talented in the king and the assistant."

Seeing Fang Xuanling look confused, Li Shimin smiled and said, "This letter was written by Ma Zhou in his own words. In the letter, he apologized for Luo Shixin, hoping that I would be lenient."

Fang Xuanling was resourceful to Xu Zixi, but at this moment he felt that his mind was a little too weak. Luo Shixin was accused of the taboo, but Luo Shixin did not come to apologize. As a subordinate, he would ask for something indirectly. What was the crime of asking for?

"Because Luo Shixin didn't think about apologizing, but was waiting for punishment!" Li Shimin said happily, "He knew he shouldn't have ordered to open a warehouse and release grain, but because of his temperament, he still broke the law. The moment he gave the order, he was ready to be punished."

Fang Xuanling said dumbfoundedly: "This... the general is really a strange person. Doesn't he understand how powerful he is? "

Li Shimin said without hesitation: "If he knew, then he would not be Luo Shixin." Thinking of Liu Min, Liu Lan's meaning of impeachment flashed in his eyes.

Because he couldn't stand the suffering of the people, he ordered the opening of a warehouse to provide relief. It was a deliberate act of winning people's hearts, but the same thing was very different.

One is to have good intentions, while the other is to have ulterior motives, telling Luo Shixin that he holds the power of the border army, wins people's hearts and makes ill-gotten plans.

This is a punishment, and the treatment of the two is very different.

At the beginning, he took a fancy to Liu Min. Liu Lan and the two of them were very scheming and utilitarian, which was suitable for breaking the game. Unexpectedly, this game was broken. Because of an accident, the credit fell on Luo Shixin. They actually used utilitarianism on Luo Shixin.

Once Luo Shixin is convicted, it is not his turn to reward him. Leaving Luo Shixin, the first merit of taking Shuofang will naturally fall on them. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
