Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

"Your Highness's strategy is indeed more mature." Changsun Wuji flattered him very naturally.

"Gentlemen, let's stop bragging about business here. I think you are just giving me a chance to show off. In this respect, I am not as good as you." Li Ke hurriedly said with a smile.

"At that time, the troops going to these two countries must be reformed, and they must be trained strictly. I think it's better to let the original sixteen guards of Chang'an transfer two guards to go?" Changsun Wuji said.

"Yes, the sixteen guards of Chang'an have the longest training time, the most elite soldiers, and the most exposure to new weapons and equipment. What was shown in the military parade on the [-]th last year was amazing enough. This year, we have trained for another year. That's a problem." Li Ke nodded.

"However, in order to implement this policy, the candidate for the coach must be prudent. Do you have any good candidates?" Li Shimin nodded in satisfaction and asked.

"I think it's better to let Wei Guogong Li Jing go as the commander-in-chief and Baoguo Gong Duan Xuanzhi as the deputy commander?" Wei Zheng paused, and immediately spoke first.

When he spoke, he glanced at Fang Xuanling calmly.

Seeing Wei Zheng's eyes and the candidate in his mouth, Fang Xuanling immediately understood, and said decisively: "No, this time leading the army has the intention of representing His Majesty, and Wei Guogong has a foot disease. I heard that the foot disease went to the seaside and other places. Prolonged humidity is not good."

Fang Xuanling found an excuse casually, and then continued: "Since you represent His Majesty, and you also need to show that the Tang Dynasty values ​​you, and you must be prudent, I feel that it is better for the king of Hejian County, General Sikong Li Xiaogong, to be the commander-in-chief. Jian County King is the Great Tang clan, which represents the importance of the Great Tang royal family, and it is more appropriate to cooperate with Lu Guogong Cheng Yaojin as his deputy."

"Lu Guogong Cheng Yaojin has an indecent nickname in the folks, the devil of the world. It refers to his unscrupulous character. Although Lu Guogong has a unscrupulous personality, his vision is extremely accurate, and his judgment of the current situation is even more accurate. Sometimes, dealing with certain things requires this unscrupulous character.”

Fang Xuanling's words also made everyone nod their heads. This choice seems to be better. Li Ke also nodded. Because he was afraid that his merits would overwhelm the master, Li Xiaogong was no worse than Li Jing and others.

At this time, Changsun Wuji next to him said calmly: "In this case, I have a more suitable candidate, the Minister of the Military Department, the King of Jiangxia County, the Governor of Qinghai Li Daozong, Li Dudu has executed His Highness King Qin in the Qinghai-Tibet Road. The policy of managing the Tuyuhun herdsmen, including the pacification of the 36 countries in the Western Regions, and the conquest of Xinjiang are even more effective."

"It is obviously more experienced in managing this kind of low-level policy and how to grasp the hearts of the low-level people. Li Dudu is also the Tang clan, and he can also go with Lu Guogong. Now Li Dudu happens to be in Chang'an, and the Western Regions are temporarily controlled by Rongguo. There won’t be any other problems if the public is stationed. The following generals, such as Niu Jinda who followed Li Dudu, Li Daliang, etc., are all good.”

"The only problem is that Li Dudu has too many positions."

Changsun Wuji added.

"This is not a problem. It just happened to win Xinjiang and pacify the 36 countries in the Western Regions, including Qinghai-Tibet. Li Daozong has also worked hard for many years. Take this opportunity to revoke Li Daozong's positions as the governor of Qinghai and Xinjiang. Feng Su Dingfang is the governor of Qinghai-Tibet Prefecture, Feng Qiao Shiwang is the governor of Qinghai Prefecture, and An Xinggui is appointed governor of Xinjiang Prefecture."

"Conferring Li Daozong as Sikong and General Protecting the Country. Just let his family set up a house in Chang'an, and give him a set of Changlefang mansion in Chang'an City."

Li Shimin directly took the words of Changsun Wuji, "Let Li Daozong work hard this time, lead Niu Jinda, Li Daliang, Xue Wanjun, Xue Wanche, and prepare to go to Silla and Baekje with Cheng Yaojin."

"Of course, it also depends on Goguryeo's next move, but we just need to make all the preparations for the time being. It just so happens that this long journey is also a training."

"Your Majesty is holy." Several people in the Liangyi Hall immediately bowed and saluted at the same time, and Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji moved the fastest.

Li Ke didn't think much of it. He didn't think Li Daozong was suitable before, and it was true that Li Daozong had a lot of positions.

Now Li Shimin has revoked the positions of several governors of Li Daozong, and directly dealt with the affairs of Silla and Baekje, so there is no big problem.

Li Ke never intervened in the aspect of employing people. Wei Zheng and the others knew who could do what the courtiers of the Tang Dynasty could do, and so did his father. In fact, the three Wei Zheng and the others just recommended were all suitable.

It can only be said that there are more capable ministers in the Tang Dynasty, which is a good thing.

"By the way, Qibiheli, Zhisifali, and Ashnadur have made meritorious service this time, and they don't have too many arrangements after they come back, and they, as foreign generals, represent my Great Tang. Regarding the attitude of the grassland people, I am going to confer titles on all three of them this time, and they are the first batch of generals who went to your military academy to study in Li Ke."

"As the main generals of the Tang Dynasty, their knowledge is a little lower, and there is still some gap with Wei Guogong and them. You teach them lessons, and you understand these aspects better than me. As the various tribes in the grassland merged into the Tang Dynasty, they were in the grassland. Its influence will also increase, and it may be possible to become an example for all the famous ethnic groups in the grassland in the future." Li Shimin added another sentence.

"Yes, I'll leave this to my son." Li Ke didn't think too much about it. This is indeed a good thing, just like Ulanhu, who just doesn't know if the three of them have the ability to govern, and they can lead troops to fight. The three of them have already proved their ability to lead troops to fight.

If the ruling side can, they can go to Hanhai Prefecture and other places in the future. If they don't have the ability to govern, they can also serve as the commander of the Beihua Theater.

In addition, the commander of the Pacific Theater and others can also choose suitable candidates in the future.

"Qin Qiong." Li Shimin said again.

"The minister is here." Qin Qiong's complexion is much better now, and after replenishing the energy and blood, although it is impossible for the body to regain the strength of his youth, it will not die early at a young age.

During this period of time, Qin Qiong was basically not sick, practicing some exercises taught by Professor Sun Simiao to strengthen his body, and he looked much younger.

"The task of your security forces is also relatively heavy this time. Tang Chuliang began to collect grain for the first time in the entire Tang Dynasty, and began to distribute subsidies to the people. You should pay more attention here to avoid riots."

"Yes!" Qin Qiong said calmly.

"Well, in terms of law and order, you have nothing to do to ask Li Ke for advice. Some of his methods are much more useful than simple threats of force." Li Shimin explained again.

"Yes."
