122. All nations come to the DPRK, and the world returns to the heart

In fact, Li Tai and Li Chengqian are essentially the same. They do not think that the Tang army can get a good advantage in the plain grassland and desert.

But he observed his words and expressions, and keenly grasped the word "counterattack" in Li Shimin's words and made a big fuss, trying to change his title of Yangzhou Grand Governor to Bingzhou Grand Governor.

The Tang Dynasty had four great governors' offices, namely Yangzhou, Yizhou, Jingzhou and Bingzhou.

The so-called "strike one and make two", Yang and Yi are among the best economic areas in the Tang Dynasty.

Jingzhou is a place of four clashes, so its importance needs to be discussed.

Bingzhou, namely Taiyuan, is the place where the Tang Dynasty rose.

Li Yuan, who was left behind in Jinyang at that time, raised an army from Taiyuan to attack Chang'an and then defeated the world.

Even without this special factor, it is necessary for Taiyuan to establish a Grand Governor's Office in strategic geography.

Taiyuan is east of the Taihang Mountains and the North China Plain, north of the Yinshan Mountains and the Desert, and west of the Yellow River.

South of Taiyuan, Luoyang in the Central Plains is separated by Zhongtiao Mountain and the Yellow River. Therefore, by defending Taiyuan, you can protect Luoyang and then protect Chang'an in Guanzhong.

Another point is that after Li Shimin ascended the throne, he immediately began to adjust the military office, focusing more on You, Longyou and Hexi, and sent generals who could fight to guard it here.

For example, Li Ji, the governor of Bingzhou, Zhang Gongjin, the governor of Daizhou, Zou Guogong, Zhang Gongjin, the governor of Huazhou, Chai Shao, the governor of Huazhou, the governor of Lingzhou, Xue Wanche, the governor of Ganzhou, Gongsun Wuda, the governor of Suzhou, Zhang Shigui, the governor of Youzhou, Wei Xiaojie, and the governor of Minzhou, Gao Zengsheng...

Now that Shuofang and Yulin are recovered, I believe the court will take further measures.

Then the importance of the Bingzhou Grand Governor's Office is fully highlighted.

Although the prince was responsible for the Grand Governor from afar, the specific affairs were actually handled by the Chief Secretary of the Grand Governor's Office.

But no matter what, as the Supreme Military Chief, the Grand Commander still has a certain right to speak, and has more intersections with these generals who hold military power in their posts.

If Luo Taisui was present, she would definitely be unable to help but give Li Tai a thumbs up.

Because in history, Li Zhi once led the Grand Governor of Bingzhou, and the chief of the Grand Governor's Office at that time was Li Ji.

Thinking about the role played by Li Ji before and after Li Zhi ascended the throne... it is quite intriguing.

But Li Shimin is not Luo Taisui, so it is impossible for him to think of so many things.

In fact, he was quite interested in Li Tai's proposal.

Although he loved Li Tai, what impressed him even more was Li Tai's enterprising desire for the Eastern Turks.

But he is the king of a country, and things that change every day cannot be done so obviously.

"Qingque, you have just been granted the title of the Grand Governor of Yangzhou. You should not be too hasty about the title of the Grand Governor of Bingzhou." Li Shimin said with a smile: "When you have more experience, it will not be too late to share my worries with the prince."

"My son understands! My son must be diligent and diligent, and learn the way of governing the country from his father and brother."

Li Tai was not discouraged. After all, his father did not refuse, which means he still had a chance.

Only look at his own performance later.

Seeing that Li Tai did not show any unexpected expression, Li Shimin was even more satisfied. On the other hand, Prince Chengqian was slightly inferior to Li Tai's talent, so he probably needed to find someone to teach him carefully.

"I'll just talk about it here today. After seeing your mother and Chingnu, you will go to the front of the temple to practice archery." He instructed.

"yes."

The two brothers left one after another.

"It's probably not enough for Kong Yingda and Lu Deming to be alone. Who else is there... Li Gang... By the way, Li Gang! It seems that you can only invite Li Gang out of the mountain."

At this time, Li Shimin said a few words to himself.

"Does the Father want to find a good teacher for the elder brother?" Before Li Lizhi left, she heard the name of the former Minister of Rites and the Crown Secretary Li Gang, so she asked.

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Your elder brother is honest and has a studious heart. If you receive the guidance of a good teacher, you will definitely be a wise king in the future."

He can only worry too much about finding a good teacher.

"What does Father think of Luo Datou?" Li Lizhi's heart moved.

"Little Changle means..." Li Shimin looked at his daughter in surprise, then shook his head and laughed: "No, Luo Taisui is young, how can he be the prince's teacher?"

"Why not?" Li Lizhi asked back.

Li Shimin said: "If you want to be a teacher of the prince, you must meet two conditions: high moral character and knowledgeable about ancient and modern times. Although Luo Taisui has wonderful ideas, it is still far from enough."

"What the father said is, the son can only agree with half of it." Li Lizhi pouted.

Seeing her expression like this, Li Shimin found it interesting, so he smiled and said, "How can I only agree with half?"

Li Lizhi said seriously: "In the eyes of the sons, it is indeed impossible to say that he is respected, but he is definitely not inferior to the prince's teachers in terms of knowledge."

After a pause, she said again: "Besides, what's the point of being respectful? A lot of dogma and a lot of rules. Do you have to teach the elder brother the emperor to be as old as them?

The elder brother of the emperor is not as fond of joking as before.”

Li Shimin laughed in silence: "Being the crown prince... or even more so, being an emperor is not an easy task? It's not a house.

This shows that Chengqian has truly begun to become sensible.

But you..."

He leaned closer to Li Lizhi and said, "You have been with Luo Taisui for a while. What do you think would have answered the question I just had just asked if it were him?"

"In less than two years, the Eastern Turks will perish." Li Lizhi said without thinking: "He will definitely say that."

"Two years?" Li Shimin said in surprise: "I don't dare to be so sure. Why dare he make such an assertion? What's more, there is an alliance between the Tang Dynasty and the Eastern Turks before..."

"Isn't it because of this covenant that the father was determined to destroy the Eastern Turks?" Li Lizhi asked back.

"What did you say..." Li Shimin was stunned.

It is true that when he first ascended the throne, he was forced to decide this alliance under the city in order to stabilize the situation.

Although doing this avoided a great war and won precious time for the Tang Dynasty to restore its national strength, he himself was deeply ashamed and kept it in mind, hoping to avenge this arrow.

The problem is that he has always kept this matter deep in his heart and never told others how his daughter knew about it?

"Jie Li openly betrayed the alliance and sent troops across the border to burn, kill and loot, and clearly did not take my Tang Dynasty seriously!"

Li Lizhi said: "If you don't teach him a painful lesson, how can you intimidate other foreign races?"

It turned out to be that... Li Shimin nodded slightly.

Li Lizhi continued: "Luo Datou once said that within three years, his father will return the world to the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

My sons believe in him, and I also believe that my father will surely wipe out the Eastern Turks in the shortest time to establish his authority. In this way, the four barbarians surrender, all countries come to worship, the world returns to their hearts, and the prosperous Tang Dynasty will be completed!"

All nations come to worship, and the world returns to their hearts?

Even a calm person like Li Shimin couldn't help but feel ups and downs.
Chapter completed!
