Children also need to be spanked and touched. Li Chengqian hasn't touched him yet, but Du Ruhui is urging him to come to Chengqing Palace. If it were another minister, he could have asked them to wait, but Lao Du was in charge.

The Prime Minister of Military Affairs would not be so anxious at this time if there were no important military matters.

After entering the main hall, Li Chengqian waved away the people in the hall, and asked Du Ruhui, who had not yet come to salute hurriedly, to sit down. After handing him a cup of tea, he asked in a deep voice: "Prime Minister Du, you are my minister.

Zhuge Liang is so famous that millions of his soldiers were wiped out while talking and laughing. What happened to make you so eager to see him alone?"

After taking two sips of tea and taking a breath, Lao Du smiled lightly and said: "Your Highness has given you too much praise. How can I compare to Zhuge Kongming, how virtuous and capable I am?"

"Hey, you can't say that. In Gu's opinion, you are much better than Kong Ming. He only assisted Liu Bei for three-thirds of the world, but Prime Minister Du, you assisted my father in establishing the Nine Provinces. In terms of achievements, I can definitely say that you are better than Kong Ming."

That’s a lot!”

Haha... After the two met and smiled, Du Ruhui took out three memorials from his sleeves and handed them to Li Chengqian, and then said slowly: "These three memorials come from Li Chengqian, Duke of Wu'an County, who is stationed in Bolu.

Jun Xian, the Governor of Xihai Road, Hou Junji, and the Governor of Songzhou, Han Wei..."

It is routine for a feudal official to come to Zhang Zhang to say something. Even if there is nothing to do, it is also common for him to come to greet Zhang Zhang. There is nothing strange about this, but what Du Ruhui said next made Li Chengqian really angry.

Li Junxian reported that in the past three months, the Bolu tribes have been frequently attacked by unknown horse bandits, causing people everywhere to panic. Although they knew it was the Tibetan cavalry who claimed the truth, because there was no evidence of death, King Bolu and he also

There is no other way but to strictly order all ministries to prepare on the spot to prevent such incidents from happening again.

Hou Jun reported that the Sinicization and restructuring of Xihai Road was in progress. The old Tuyuhun tribes were all ignorant and uninformed people. Many of the imperial decrees could not be understood in time. In order to quickly complete the imperial tasks

, Hou Junji had to divide his troops to govern.

The troublesome ones are those Murong clan members who fled to Tubo. They took advantage of the imperial court's drastic reforms to incite the disobedient barbarians to fight against the imperial court. Once troops were sent to encircle and suppress them, they would hide in the mountains and play with the government troops.

A game of cat and mouse.

In addition, the number of Tibetan troops on the border is increasing day by day, which has restricted the strength of the garrison at key points, so it will take some time to suppress the bandits. Therefore, I am asking the emperor to punish me.

The last thing I want to talk about is Han Wei. Songzhou also received Tubo, and Tubo came there for the pilgrimage to meet their envoys. However, there were more caravans and spies than usual in the area. Han Wei felt that they were not just escorting them secretly, but

Because the two countries had just signed the alliance not long ago, they did not dare to provoke border provocations and break the alliance, so the above table reminds the court to pay more attention.

"Has the list of Tibetan envoys been handed over?"

"Back to Your Highness, I have already handed it over to you. The chief envoy Tunmi Sambuza and the deputy envoy Zhi Serugongdun are all important ministers of Tubo. Moreover, the chief envoy Ludongzan who came last time has been appointed as the prime minister.

"

Well, after nodding, Li Chengqian showed a look of displeasure on his face, and said angrily: "A small envoy from a foreign country has made three sides nervous. Isn't this a villain's intention to judge a gentleman's heart? Could it be that our court will detain their envoys?"

Or is it that Songtsen Gampo's wings have become stronger and he feels he has the strength to challenge me?"

After Li Chengqian finished speaking, Du Ruhui shook his head and said worriedly: "The Lord of Tubo and Lu Dongzan are not fools. Since they can do this, it means that they want to cause trouble on the Lantern Festival. At that time, all the countries will come to court.

, His Majesty is recuperating again. Whether for the sake of good luck or out of the great ambition of a great country, the court cannot care too much about them. How to take both dignity and face into consideration at that time depends on His Highness. You must take good care of it.

size!"

What Tubo did was not honest. After overtly and covertly squeezing the Tang Dynasty, they also put on a charming appearance of paying tribute to win the sympathy of other countries. Not to mention that Li Chengqian was young and energetic, even a seasoned emperor would probably have to slam the table.

.It is already very difficult for Li Chengqian to suppress his anger. Therefore, Lao Du must once again remind him that everything should focus on the overall situation.

If during the Lantern Festival banquet, the Tang Dynasty showed a tendency to bully the weak and use the weak to bully the strong in front of other countries, wouldn't it be a clear message to the countries that the Tang Dynasty would destroy whoever it wanted to destroy, and the whole world could not unite?

To attack the Tang Dynasty, even if there were too many ants, they would have to climb the mountain. No matter how powerful the Tang Dynasty was, it could not make enemies like this.

The people have just lived a good life for a few years, and their people's power has just been restored. If we fight such a war, it will not only threaten the country's destruction, but also drain their newly bulging pockets. Both the emperor and the prince will be wiped out.

Carrying infamy.

Of course Li Chengqian understood what Du Ruhui meant. It would be great to defeat six generals through five passes, but if you are too conceited, you will inevitably end up in Maicheng. It is true that Datang is a giant, but its foundation is not strong. There are many projects in the country that benefit the people.

While the prelude is in progress, if we go to war with other countries now, we will not only break the trust of the people, but also waste the early investment.

"Don't worry, Prime Minister Du. You will naturally wake up to this truth, but you cannot get used to this problem. As long as Tubo dares to take the lead, it must be suppressed as soon as possible and as quickly as possible, otherwise other countries will look down on us, the Tang Dynasty.

In my opinion, the loud noise caused by Hou Junji and Li Junxian was just a false shot. Although Songzhou looked calm, it was extremely dangerous. If there was trouble on the border, it would definitely be in Songzhou, so

A general must be chosen to guard it."

After listening to the prince's words, Du Ruhui smiled and brushed his beard, because Li Chengqian's ideas coincided with his, and then replied: "That's what His Highness said, as long as the Shangyuan Festival allows other countries to see clearly the ambition and ambition of the Tang Dynasty."

With Tubo's wolfish ambitions, there will be no one standing by to cheer for them. As long as Tubo dares to come, just fight back. This is not a problem.

It's easy for Hou Junji and Li Junxian to tell them, as long as they stand ready and be careful. Songzhou is short of major generals. The imperial court should send a force to strengthen the defense, and at the same time strictly order the nearby Zhechong Mansion to secretly gather troops to be on standby to nip the problem in the bud.

!

When it comes to standing alone, Han Wei's ability is a bit lacking. As for generals, Zhang Gongjin, Zhang Shigui, Li Mengchang, Liu Shili, and Qin Huaiyu can all be used. They are all young and powerful, and have rich combat experience. Any one of them can control the Songzhou Army.

More than enough.”

Even though Du Ruhui mentioned a lot of people, in his opinion, the prince's general choice this time was either Zhang Gongjin or Qin Huaiyu. Who knows these two generals with whom he is familiar. Zhang Gongjin always used this method during the Northern Expedition and the Western Expedition.

He participated in the war as the deputy commander, and his military exploits were brilliant. Now he is the long history of Nanya, and guarding Songzhou is not something he can do with his hands.

As for Qin Huaiyu, he is the senior brother of the prince and his favorite general who has been promoted by him. He has six tens of thousands of troops in his hands. Despite his young age, his military exploits are not as good as those of the veteran generals, so the two of them have better chances than others.

Much bigger.

"No, although these people are all talented generals, they are too honest in fighting. It is difficult for that rural cadre to remember. This time, I will make him suffer enough." After saying this, he called Henglian in and immediately gave instructions.
