Datang: Salted fish at the beginning, Gao Yang was given marriage by Li Er

Chapter 242
The night is as dark as water, and the bright moon is shining brightly.

The warm yellow candlelight cuts out the figures drinking together, and the words of the father and son are heard softly in the silent midnight.

"The production of armor is imminent, and the Ministry of Industry is busy now, so it's better for my father to send the drawings earlier."

"That's natural."

"Also, the leather of this armor is wear-resistant, but it is not easy to find, and it needs to be soaked in a special way. Father should remind it."

The burly shadow reflected on the military tent nodded slightly, and his calm and worried voice slowly spread.

"Cultivated cattle were not allowed to be slaughtered in the Tang Dynasty, but it was difficult to find some that died of old age and physical decline, or died suddenly."

"Tomorrow, I will send people to search in various states and counties of the Tang Dynasty. There are only a hundred or so sets in the area. It should be no problem."

bang.

The wine cups clinked, making a crisp sound.

Li Jing raised his head and took a sip of the fermented rice, said "ah" in satisfaction, and clicked his tongue.

"It's getting late, go to bed earlier."

"As a father, I can understand your mind now. It is really not easy to train a special soldier, from clothes to military strategy."

"Tomorrow's father will screen the entire tribe again according to the previous agreement."

Li Jing helped the case to his feet and raised the curtain of the big tent.

"Xian'er, today you choose a military tent to live in, and you will be with the army in the future. It is a good thing to experience it in advance."

Li Xian bent down to get out of the Chinese army tent, with a hint of drunkenness on his face.

"What Dad said is that when you join the army, you have to do as the Romans do."

"I'm used to eating big fish and meat, but I still want to eat radish and green vegetables to relieve the greasy."

Hahaha.

The father and son looked at each other and smiled.

When talking about food, Li Jing remembered the half pot of wine that the two of them just drank.

The light was shining everywhere, and the night was slightly cool, but Li Jing, who was wearing a single shirt, didn't feel any chill at all. Instead, he felt a little warmed by the wine.

Armrest looked up at Qinghui, Li Jing murmured.

"The land of the Western Expedition, the climate is impermanent."

"After the New Year's Eve, the ice and snow in our Central Plains melted, and everything recovered. The land in the Western Regions was full of wind and sand, and it was three feet frozen."

"With this wine to warm up, my bones can last a few more years on the battlefield."

The bonfire was crackling and burning, and the snoring of the soldiers who had been training hard for a day came from outside the tent. Such words in the silence were somewhat sad.

Li Xian waved his arms proudly and spoke freely.

"Father, there is no need to be sad, people are old and late, and it is also the time for new generals to step up."

"After a while, the boy will come up with some firearms, but sometimes we don't need to hold a knife and a gun, but take a flesh and blood body."

"The journey is not far away, the child also needs to prepare well, father should rest early."

He chose a military tent and got in. After a short while, there was the sound of a fire fold, and when the warm yellow lights came on, there was the sound of clothes being removed.

Li Jing looked at Li Xian who was doing nothing but doing nothing, a gratifying smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Once upon a time, the most troublesome eldest son seemed to have grown up unconsciously.

Even the many transformations of Datang depended on Li Xian's exquisite design.Even the concept of the military camp was based on Li Xian's original template.

This child who is the least favored is really surprising.

Turn around and go back to fight, pinch off the candle and shake it, dragging the quilt, and after a while, there is the sound of even breathing.

In the huge camp, the stretching tents are like clusters of blooming flowers, and the lonely campfire rises scatteredly, illuminating the camp.Patrol soldiers with knives shuttled through it in pairs, whether they loudly scolded the soldiers who started the night.The soldiers stood upright on the archery built on wooden platforms around them, yawned secretly, moved their steps lightly, and raised their spirits again.

The night is dark.

Looking beyond the barracks, climbing up the city wall lit with long torches, row after row of houses are black and blind, only the palace is brightly lit and brilliant.

In the Taiji Palace, the palace was brightly lit by candles, as bright as day.

Li Shimin was dressed in silk woven clothes and sat quietly behind the table, propping his head, unable to sleep at night.

On the desk next to the elbow, the bright red military newspaper was stamped in seal script, and two short lines of handwriting appeared vividly on the paper.

On the border of the Western Regions, the royal family of Tuyuhun gathers the wandering tribes around, and now the major tribes lead their troops into Fuqi City, intending to make an enemy of the Tang Dynasty.

a long time.

With the sound of footsteps behind him, Eunuch Rong was carrying a thin velvet cloak and draped it over the king's shoulders.

"Your Majesty, the night is getting dark, let's rest early."

Call ~
There was a long exhalation sound, Li Shimin pulled the cloak tightly over his shoulders, and tapped the scroll on the desk with his knuckles.

"Alas! Tuyuhun, Tuyuhun, you are still an enemy of my Tang Dynasty after all."

In the dead of night, it is inevitable to think of the past, and Eunuch Rong understood the deep meaning of Li Shimin's words.

Not long after the founding of the Tang Dynasty, Tuyuhun established diplomatic relations with the Tang Dynasty and sent a special envoy to the Tang Dynasty, but then attacked the Tang Dynasty.Later, Datang sent a special envoy to Tuyuhun, but the Tuyuhun man refused, but wanted to ask Datang for his son's marriage.In order to recuperate and recuperate, Li Shimin secretly stocked up national strength and national policy, so he agreed.

But things are far from that simple, and I don't know what the son of Khan thinks, but he refuses!Later, the special envoy of Datang was detained, and under the negotiation of the special envoy sent by Li Shimin again, there was no compromise.

Eunuch Rong lowered his hands and bowed slightly, glanced at Li Shimin's dignified face, and considered his vocabulary.

"Your Majesty, it is extremely hateful for Tuyuhun to challenge the imperial power of the Tang Dynasty again and again."

"It's a good thing to be able to make up your mind this time."

"The military power of the Tang Dynasty is in full swing, and by destroying Fu Yun's arrogance, it can also deter the restless countries in the Western Regions."

After hearing this, Li Shimin stood up to help the case. Eunuch Rong quickly helped him from his side, but Li Shimin blocked him.

"I am now middle-aged, healthy and energetic."

"Perhaps it's because they haven't controlled these surrounding countries for a long time, and they have been cultivating their health and rest before, which makes them more and more restless."

"Fight, fight, let them see if my Great Tang is as unbearable as they imagined."

Pacing up the hall with his hands behind his back, Li Shimin walked slowly and stood in front of the gate of the hall. The dual cultivators naturally fell behind him, and there was a heroic spirit in his back.

Tiger's eyes looked towards the western sky, and his tone became firm without realizing it.

"First, there were the Tuyuhun bandits in the western frontier, who wanted to build up the confidence of the Tang Dynasty, and then the Tubo envoys sent Tang to insult them with wantonly words."

"Actually, all the countries in the western frontier are eager to try, to see if my Tang iron halberd has been sinking in the sand for a long time, whether it is still as rich and bright as it used to be."

"Since they want to see it, I will let them see it clearly!"

Withdrawing his gaze, Li Shimin looked an inch below his feet and murmured.

"It's Meiyue at this time, seeing that the end of the year is approaching, I just want to fight for a chance for these soldiers at the end of the year!"

"Oh, it's not easy. I'm afraid this year will be the most hurried one for the soldiers who went to the western expedition."

Li Shimin was originally a man who started his career on the battlefield, and he has a deep friendship with his soldiers.

So much so that even though he is on the throne, he also has special care for the soldiers who are far away in the barracks.

Walking slowly from behind, Eunuch Rong sighed and raised his brows.

"Raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for one hour, the rivers and mountains of the Tang Dynasty will not be peaceful for a day, and the soldiers will not relax for a day."

"Your Majesty loves soldiers like sons, but he also has to think about the people in dire straits."

Naturally, Eunuch Rong didn't need to remind him of the simple truth. Li Shimin nodded slightly and nodded.

"Inform Guanyin's servant girl, and discuss the battle tomorrow morning."
