Half an hour later, inside the Chang’an Imperial Palace, in the side hall where Li Shimin usually approves the recital.
Li Shimin, dressed in a solemn dragon robe, sat on the master’s seat, expressionlessly listening to the noise of the whole city caused by the palace soldier Dai Hua parading the street, and he could not see the joy or anger.
Li Ke, who was still wearing a Xuan armor and a red cloak behind his back, looked heroic and extraordinary, standing in the center of the side hall like an aspen tree.
There were no palace maids who came to see the tea and pour water, and no eunuchs standing by, and he knew from this situation that Li Shimin might want to privately rebuke him about killing prisoners.
“Why did you kill one clean?”
In the next second, Li Shimin’s domineering voice came coldly.
“The sons and daughters also learned from the letters that His Majesty and the hundred officials in the court intend to move these foreign races to the hinterland, and the troubles after this case are infinite, the sons and daughters have no time to object, and the matter is urgent and cannot withstand the rip-off, so they have no choice but to make this decision, and ask the father and the emperor to understand it!”
Li Ke, who was dressed in a military uniform, said with a resolute face.
He wisely did not exonerate himself, because he knew that this little action could not hide Li Shimin, and he did not need to hide it, after all, if he did not even have the courage to face Li Shimin’s questioning, he Li Kei would not be able to play early.
“Endless troubles? I, the tens of millions of people in the Great Tang Dynasty, looking at the more than 300,000 Turkic young men and soldiers who have surrendered, can they still turn the sky over? Inexplicably wonderful! ”
Li Shimin’s majestic face suddenly became gloomy, and he shouted angrily.
“Father, 300,000 young and strong is not much, but you know, there are enough three million Turks, this snow disaster may be killed and injured, but according to half of the children, there must be a 1.5 million, and hundreds of thousands of alien races such as Tocharian who were conquered by the Turks, do these people let them stay in the Turks, or move to the Great Tang?”
Facing Li Shimin’s anger, Li Kei asked without changing his face.
“More than two million people, count him three million, how about moving here? The Great Tang still can’t see three million people? ”
Li Shimin said disdainfully.
“Father, it is true that my Great Tang now has more than ten million Han people, but our opponent will eventually be defeated by us, three million Turks can be settled in this way, in the future, we completely defeat the Tuyuhun in the west, will we move in another million Tuyuhun people?” And what about the nearly one million Huqiang people on the border between the Great Tang and Tuyuhun and Tubo? There are also four million Goguryeo people, will they also move inward in the future? In two or three generations, if our Great Tang fights farther, what will be the situation then? ”
Li Kei asked in a deep voice.
“This…”
Li Shimin was stunned, and immediately said angrily: “You are a blunt set!” Wouldn’t it be okay to see the situation then? Wouldn’t the Manchu Dynasty Wen Wu stop it? ”
“Father, most of the time our Tang officialdom only seeks to be impeccable and follow the rules, His Majesty has set a precedent for internal migration of Turks, and in the future, officials in the officialdom will naturally only act according to precedents, who will run out and sing the opposite tune without knowing the fun?” Doing things according to precedents will not be grabbed by others, and they will come up with their own ideas, but they will be responsible, and when the time comes, there will be many alien races, and they will become elbows and armpits, and the future troubles will be endless! ”
Li Kei said again.
Li Shimin’s majestic brows suddenly wrinkled.
He knew that Li Ke’s words were right, now the Great Tang has just started not long ago, the start-up team of the Qin King Mansion is still there, everyone is full of passion for doing things, and the officialdom in the future will not be like this.
What Li Kei said is really likely to happen!
“Then you don’t want to move inward, as long as you control people in your hands, give them benefits, let them turn their hearts to the Great Tang, serve military service for the Great Tang cultivated land, and let those foreign races fight each other, isn’t it a beautiful thing?”
After half a ring, Li Shimin asked again.
“It’s good that the father and emperor are willing to stop thinking about moving inward, but the idea of letting a foreign race become the knife of the Great Tang is not reliable.”
Li Ke, who had already won a stage of victory, did not let go, but continued to oppose it without giving face.
“What’s wrong with letting foreign races be used by the Great Tang? If you are worried that they will rebel, just the armor that controls them cannot be better than that of the Great Tang, not to mention that there are so many foreign races, belonging to different tribes, can they still rebel at the same time? ”
Li Shimin’s tone suddenly became unhappy.
“Father, the problem is not in the armor, or even in the logistics, the first problem is how to give grace, and the second problem is in people.”
Li Kei shook his head.
“How to give grace? Rewarding the field, educating the good life, and letting it be graceful, isn’t it good for the court to do this little thing? ”
Li Shimin frowned and asked.
“I beg your pardon for saying bluntly, you can’t do it well! If the foreign Huaien becomes a demand for officials and even for the Han people, then when those foreign races and Han people clash, officials will inevitably not become partial to foreign races, how can my Tang people be convinced? In this way, wouldn’t I, the Great Tang, have to pay for this policy with my own popular hearts? Is it worth it? ”
Li Ke’s eyebrows raised and he asked again.
“How is it not worth sacrificing a few people’s small profits in exchange for tens of thousands of usable soldiers for the Great Tang? You, too young. ”
Li Shimin said expressionlessly.
“Father, it is precisely because the sons and daughters are young, so they know that the Han family left their homeland to fight to the death for the country, firstly, to defend the territorial integrity of the Great Tang, secondly, to ensure that the family is not humiliated by foreign races, and thirdly, for their own property, in the final analysis, our Tang is thriving today, because the interests of the people and the court are the same, if they are deprived of their needs, it is equivalent to depriving them of their recognition of the Great Tang, and then the Great Tang’s own soldiers and horses will be separated from themselves, at that time…”
Li Kei said with a worried face.
“Well, this balance is really difficult to manage, and this is the second question you mentioned? Then, wouldn’t it be better to directly use them as pawns to die? Good villains are also soldiers, right? ”
After Li Shimin was silent for a long time, he finally admitted that he was unreliable with the alien Wynne.
“Father, of course, what you say now will be better, the current Great Tang soldiers and horses, from the generals down to the soldiers and even the people, have all experienced battle formations, naturally at the peak, now we drive foreign races to the battlefield to fight without problems, what about the future?” With the development of the Great Tang Dynasty, the purple drunken gold fans will eventually soak the bones of our Han people, and when the time comes, the knives in the hands of those foreign races will cut into ourselves! ”
Li Kei said with a solemn face, remembering that at the beginning of the Anshi Rebellion, the most powerful Yulin Army collapsed in the defense of Chang’an, causing the Great Tang to lose the last chance to save his dignity, and only then did the mess that followed, in the end, it was too long to fight in person.
“Hiss…”
When Li Shimin heard this, he gasped in shock.
He finally found that the most critical problem he overlooked, that is, without the lubricant of war, even the most powerful war machine will rust and decay with the erosion of time!
