Chapter 436

After they had discussed the matter of Jieli Khan, they began to deal with the government.

"Tell the emperor, please tell me about the ten evils of Tuyuhun." changsun Wuji suddenly listed.

Everyone was shocked and immediately knew that the real big play was about to begin. With the defeat of the Turks and the disintegration of the East Turks, Jieli Khan had long been like a toothless tiger. It didn't matter whether life or death. At present, the most important thing for the imperial court is the upcoming battle of Tuyuhun.

"Oh!" Li Shimin cooperates.

In this era, the imperial court should also have a moral foundation in launching a war. Although everyone knows that the war between Datang and Tuyuhun is imperative, the necessary procedures are essential.

With a wave of his long sleeve, Chang sun Wuji took out a long memorial from his arms and said angrily: "the minister accused Tuyuhun of one of his heinous crimes, which was to do evil for the tiger. It was established at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, and all kinds of waste were waiting for prosperity. The Turks invaded year after year. Tuyuhun also followed the Turks and invaded the border of the Tang Dynasty year after year, committing numerous bloody crimes."

"What Lord Chang Sun said is very true."

As soon as Chang sun Wuji's voice fell, many old ministers nodded again and again. At that time, Turks were the overlord of the grassland, and Tuyuhun was also controlled by him. When attacking Datang, Tuyuhun also sent a lot of troops, which made Datang tired of coping. It can be said that although the humiliation suffered by Li Yuan in those years was counted in Jieli Khan, Wang Fuyun of Tuyuhun was also one of them.

"The second of the most heinous crimes is to turn your heart to the previous dynasty. Brother Fuyun and his brother will marry Princess Guanghua of the previous dynasty and be hostile to Datang."

Although the status of Princess Guanghua has fallen sharply and insignificant after the demise of the Sui Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty naturally counts this matter in order to attack Tuyuhun,

"The third crime! I have repeatedly committed the Tang Dynasty. This autumn, I plundered Shanzhou and sent troops to Koran and Kuo. I have repeatedly committed the Tang Dynasty. My crime can be punished."

"The fourth crime is disrespect to the imperial court. Your majesty invited him to worship and repeatedly shirked it."

"The fifth crime is the slander of fatuous and disabled officials. They are repeatedly provoked by the king of Tianzhu to suppress loyalty and good people and harm the people of Tuyuhun."

………………

"Tenth crime...................."

Changsun Wuji has ten criminal evidences in a row, accusing king voyun of Tuyuhun of countless crimes.

"Please also send troops to avenge the people of the Tang Dynasty and save the people of Tuyuhun." all the officials of the Tang Dynasty were excited.

Li Shimin nodded and looked at Hou Junji

"Hou Shangshu, tell your ministers about Tuyuhun.".

Knowing yourself and the enemy can win a hundred battles. Since Li Shimin decides to use force against Tuyuhun, he will naturally spare no effort to collect Tuyuhun's intelligence. Hou Junji is the Minister of war, and collecting enemy information is the business of the Ministry of war.

"Yes!" Hou Junji took the order and bowed to the ministers.

"Tuyuhun is located in the land of Qinghai. The terrain is high. Ordinary soldiers will have varying degrees of altitude reaction when they enter. The strength of our soldiers will be greatly damaged. Although there are the highland training method offered by mohou and the relief drugs, whether it is effective needs to be further confirmed."

The people immediately felt awe struck. Since the spread of the altitude sickness in the mouth of the Mohist school, it was quickly recognized by the people. Although it broke the God's blessing on Tubo and Tuyuhun, it was still the biggest problem perplexing the Tang army.

"Tuyuhun pasture is prosperous and rich in Qinghai. It is a rare good horse. It has been recuperating since the former Sui Dynasty. Its troops and horses have grown, and there are 400000 people who control strings." Hou Junji said with a heavy face.

"Strong troops!"

All the officials were awestruck. Although Tuyuhun at the moment was not as good as the Turks in their heyday, it was not far from it. No wonder Fu Yun dared to offend the Turks again and again after defeating the Turks in the Tang Dynasty. I'm afraid this is the strength of Fu Yun!

Hou Junji continued: "in Tuyuhun, although Fu Yun is old, he has quite a number of powerful generals. King Tianzhu, Murong Xiaojun and famous King are rare powerful generals. Moreover, Tuyuhun has long been on guard against our Tang Dynasty and built a fortress in a dangerous place, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack......"

After Hou Junji told Tuyuhun's information again, there was a sudden silence among the officials.

Wei Zheng sighed and said, "in this way, neither geography nor people are on our side. We only have the benefit of soldiers and armor."

Compared with ethnic minorities, the greatest advantage of Datang is in weapons.

Li Shimin nodded. Of course, in addition, Merton also had some secret weapons dedicated to Li Shimin. Of course, these were kept secret.

"This war is no less than the Turkic war. Please be careful," Wei Zheng said solemnly.

Tuyuhun is really powerful at the moment. Attacking Tuyuhun is a war that Datang can't afford to lose again. Winning Tuyuhun will certainly deter all ethnic groups in the border. Datang's border will usher in peace again. If it fails, the victory of Datang's previous defeat of Turks will disappear and the situation will be difficult immediately.

Li Shimin naturally knows the importance of defeating Tuyuhun. A qualified commander will be essential to win the war. Among the generals, I'm afraid no one has ever defeated the Turkic Li Jing.

Just considering that Li Jing is sixty-two years old, Li Shimin can't help hesitating.

How could Li Jing not feel Li Shimin's intention and take the initiative to step out and say, "tell your majesty, the old minister asks for war, and you should hold your hand and allow him to return to the dynasty."

"Well, Li Aiqing is old and strong. I'm very relieved to take the initiative to share the worries of the imperial court." Li Shimin said in his heart.

The other officials nodded one after another. No one in the court was dissatisfied with Li Jing's military talent. Li Jing came out. This war had a three-point chance of winning. Only Hou Junji, who was in the forefront, had a gloomy face. He was the Minister of the Ministry of war. Without Li Jing, Tuyuhun's command of the attack would surely fall on him. What a glorious war to destroy the country, and he could only serve as a foil.

Sure enough, Li Shimin immediately appointed Li Jing as the general manager of the Xihai road army and led the whole army. Hou Junji, the Minister of war, was the general manager of Jishi Road, and Li daozong, the Minister of punishment, was the general manager of the Shanshan road Army... At the same time, cavalry were recruited from Turkic and Qipeng departments

Li Shimin finally looked at the end and added: "Su dingfang escorts grain and grass and is responsible for the logistics of the whole army."

The whole audience immediately turned their attention to Su dingfang, who was listed behind the generals. This time, Li Shimin appointed generals who have been good at fighting, and handed over the most important logistics to the unknown Su dingfang, which was really surprising.

Su dingfang was stunned and hurriedly stepped out and said, "at the end, I will take orders."

He knew that he could get Li Shimin's favor. It must be the performance of Mohist Zi asking him to command the Macedonian phalanx in the martial arts arena, which left an impression in front of Li Shimin, so he had this opportunity today.

After Li Shimin finished the arrangement, he stood up and looked down on the officials and said sonorously: "I have fought all my life for all the people in the world. I am worthy of my heart. Tuyuhun has acted perversely and repeatedly committed blood cases in our Datang. How can I be a woman's heart and fall under the iron hoof of our Datang people? Today I officially announce that Datang will fight Tuyuhun in April this year to ensure the safety of our Datang Longyou people."

April is the breeding season for cattle and sheep. Tuyuhun is the busiest time. At this time, Tuyuhun has the least troops, which is the best time to start a war.

"Since the Guiyi king has passed away, there is still a lack of a person who is good at Hu Xuan dance in the Weiyang palace of the Tang Dynasty. If not, let Fu Yun replace him." Li Shimin said murderously. Since a Jieli is not enough to frighten the border, he doesn't mind another Tuyuhun king.
