Chapter 118 Destroying Three Kingdoms in a Row
Li Zhen couldn¡¯t help but think of the twelve gold medals given to Yue Fei by Song Gaozong in later generations.
Originally, Yue Fei could go straight to Huanglong and regain his territory, but Song Gaozong issued twelve gold medals and summoned Yue Fei to return to the court. As a result, Yue Fei died tragically in Fengbo Pavilion.
These twelve imperial edicts are so similar to the twelve gold medals. Could it be that the emperor already distrusts himself?
¡°Yes, I destroyed three countries in a row within one year.
These three countries have been established for hundreds of years, but they were conquered and destroyed by themselves in one fell swoop. This unparalleled achievement has shocked China, and it is really rare to achieve it.
Even if the emperor did not doubt himself, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, especially Changsun Wuji and others, would definitely speak ill of him in front of the emperor, and the emperor would also become suspicious. Otherwise, if he managed the Northeast so well, why would the emperor want to What about recalling it?
Li Ruyi said angrily: "We are just planning to fight another good war, destroy the Japanese country, and then destroy the Bohai Sea, so that the eastern part of the sea will no longer have an invincible country. What kind of wind did the emperor have to let the prince go back?"
Liu Rengui on the side was startled, thinking that this young lady really dared to fire off cannons, and even dared to say that the emperor had convulsions. If these words reached the emperor's ears, even if he could save his life, he would definitely be severely punished.
Liu Rengui turned out to be Li Jing's subordinate. Knowing that Li Ruyi was just outspoken, he immediately said: "General Li, please don't talk nonsense. The current emperor is wise and must have his own intentions in calling the prince back to Chang'an."
Li Ruyi wanted to say more, but Li Zhen was afraid that Li Ruyi would speak unobtrusively again, so he quickly said: "Since the emperor asked me to go back, he naturally has his intentions. You don't have to worry, but once I go, the plan to attack Japan and Bohai will be ruined." I¡¯m going to let it go for now.¡±
"General Liu, you will lead 10,000 troops and troops from Baekje and Silla to garrison Sanhan to guard against the Japanese. Zhou Qing and Xue Xiantu, you will lead 10,000 troops to garrison Goguryeo to guard against the Bohai Sea. The rest of the army will return to Liaodong."
Everyone also knows that it¡¯s okay to complain. The emperor¡¯s imperial edict cannot be disobeyed. Otherwise, it is resistance to the edict, which is equivalent to rebellion.
Therefore, no matter what the outcome is or what big event happens, Li Zhen must go back.
Li Zhen has no other choice.
At the moment, Li Zhen made some arrangements for the personnel and set off back to Chang'an without daring to stay.
At this time, Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla in the northeastern border areas were all annexed by the Tang Dynasty. Only Xi and Khitan in the north and Bohai in the east still threatened the Tang border.
After the last defeat, the Xi people did not dare to use troops against the Tang Dynasty in a short period of time. The Khitan was also frightened by the Tang Dynasty. Bohai saw that Goguryeo was destroyed and was afraid of not being able to protect itself, let alone sending troops to invade the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, , for a time, the northern border of Datang was peaceful and peaceful.
After Li Zhen returned to Jixian, she decided to lead only three groups of musketeers, Mo Dao soldiers, and heavy cavalry back to Chang'an.
The musketeers were adapted from Li Zhen's guards. Originally there were only 500 people. Since Li Zhen received a thousand guns as a reward from the system, the musketeers were expanded to 2,000 people. In addition to the 1,000 musketeers who followed Li Zhenzhi In addition, there are still a thousand musketeers staying in Youzhou to frighten the foreigners.
There are only 500 Mo Dao soldiers, and only 1,000 heavy armored cavalry. The total of these three troops is only 2,500.
This number is just right. If it were more, it would be used by people with ulterior motives, saying that Li Zhen returned to the court with a large number of troops and had ulterior motives.
If there are too few, it will not be able to play a big role in Chang'an's complicated situation.
More than two thousand people are just right. They may not look like many people, but they are actually the essence of the Tang Dynasty's Northeast Frontier Army. Their combat effectiveness is stronger than the 30,000 people in the general army.
It can not attract attention, but it can also play a role in protecting Li Zhen and turning the tide at critical moments. Moreover, Li Zhen brought all his subordinates including Li Ruyi, Xue Rengui, Jiang Xingba and Yanyun Shibaqi with him after work.
When we looked at Jixian County, it was May and the warm wind was blowing, but everyone felt chilly in their hearts.
Before Li Zhen came to Youzhou, the people of Youzhou were in dire straits and suffered from serious border conflicts. In just one year, Li Zhen defeated the Xi people, destroyed Goguryeo, Silla, and Baekje, formed a caravan, and traded with foreign tribes, making the Tang Dynasty prestige It spreads far and wide, and the people live and work in peace and contentment.
??Whether it is military or economic and political, Youzhou has reached its peak in a century under Li Zhen's governance.
Hearing the news that Li Zhen was leaving, the streets in Jixian County were deserted, and the people fell to their knees, not daring to let Li Zhen leave.
In the end, Li Zhen said something good, drank the farewell wine brought by the people, and took a look at the Tang Dynasty, which he had been fighting for for a year.??, I felt a surge of heat in my heart.
Farewell Youzhou, I, Li Zhen, left today. I don¡¯t know when I will come back, but as long as I, Li Zhen, are here for one day, I will ensure the prosperity and peace of the border of the Tang Dynasty!
When Li Zhen was about to set off to return to Chang'an, there was already an undercurrent surging in the city of Chang'an.
Li Zhen really guessed it right. Li Shimin was anxious to recruit Li Zhen to Beijing this time, and it was true that Changsun Wuji said bad things about Li Zhen in front of Li Shimin.
Changsun Wuji said four words - great achievements shake the master.
Then he added, has the emperor forgotten about Emperor Gaozu?
Li Shimin¡¯s heart felt like lightning flashed instantly.
I think back then, Li Shimin opened up territory for the Tang Dynasty and defeated a series of powerful enemies such as Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande. However, Tang Gaozu Li Yuan made his eldest son Li Jiancheng the prince.
So that Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng were at loggerheads. Finally, Li Shimin launched the Xuanwumen Incident, killed Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, and sent troops into the palace to control Li Yuan.
Li Yuan had no choice but to announce his abdication, proclaimed himself the Supreme Emperor, and gave up the throne to Li Shimin.
This matter is not far away from now, and it was Li Shimin's personal experience. Therefore, when Changsun Wuji said these two sentences, it hit Li Shimin's vital point.
Li Shimin was really afraid that Li Zhen would do too much and become a second version of himself. If someone forced him into the palace in the end, the master of the Tang Dynasty would be replaced by Li Zhen.
When a person has been in a high position for a long time, he will inevitably miss the position of power, especially the emperor. The world is big and I am the only one who dominates. This temptation of power is not something that ordinary people can understand.
Li Shimin has been emperor for more than ten years and is in his prime. Naturally, he does not want to lose power.
If there is a person who threatens his power, even if that person is his biological son, he must be on guard.
Power must not be shared, no matter who!
Li Zhen has made great achievements now, destroying three kingdoms in a row, and her prestige has greatly increased. Her reputation in the Tang Dynasty is catching up with hers, and she is definitely a huge threat to her throne.
"And Li Zhen now has tens of thousands of elite soldiers. If he has other ideas, it will be absolutely catastrophic.
So, when Changsun Wuji said this, it suddenly reached Li Shimin's heart (remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
