When the early morning was over, Baiguan left the Taiji Temple.

Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Li Jing, Li Zexuan and other core officials came to Ganlu Hall to discuss with Li Er about sending troops to attack Liangshidu.

After all, it involves specific combat deployments. If it is made public directly in the courtroom, what if someone accidentally leaks it out?

Therefore, to be on the safe side, in general, Li Er will only convene confidants to attend such "meetings" involving specific military deployments, which can not only ensure that the plan is not leaked, but also improve the efficiency of the discussion!

"Since you have decided to attack Liang Shidu, what do you think, how should you fight?"

Inside the Hall of Ganlu.

Li Er looked at these confidants in the hall and asked aloud.

After he finished speaking, the eldest grandson Wuji stepped forward and said:

"Your Majesty, during the Wude years, Master Liang attacked our Tang Dynasty many times, and they were all defeated by our army. Many of his subordinates have surrendered to our Tang Dynasty, not to mention that all the eighteen rebel kings have been destroyed. Today, Master Liang is all outside, unable to join forces with the anti-king, and is weak. Internally, there are political problems in the Turks and it is difficult to withdraw. Therefore, the old minister believes that the current Master Liang is not enough to be afraid of, so it is better to send someone to surrender to him first. If he refuses, we will send troops soon~!"

Xiao Yu nodded and said in agreement: "What Zhao Guogong said is very true, now that Master Liang is exhausted, he can't make any waves, if he can take it down without a single soldier, it should be the best! "

Li Er nodded, but did not speak.

Li Ji said at this time: "Your Majesty, I think this plan is a bit inappropriate! Just now in the court, according to the plan of the Marquis of Yong'an, the best result is to force Liang Shidu to ask for help from Jie Li and induce Jie Li. Break the covenant of the year! If, as Zhao Guogong said, he sent messengers to Shuofang to persuade Liang Shidu to surrender, and if the villain really surrendered, wouldn't it make Jie Li too late to react?"

Du Ruhui cupped his hands and said, "General Li is right, but this is only one of them. The most important thing is that Master Liang is a vicious person. Since the Sui Dynasty, Yuxian has been defended, and Yuxian has been divided up. , backed by the Eastern Turks, and I have been against the Tang Dynasty for more than ten years. If he really wanted to surrender, he would not wait until now! Therefore, sending envoys to persuade him to surrender is a waste of time and words!"

Li Er nodded and suddenly noticed Li Zexuan who was bowing his head "counting ants". He moved in his heart and asked, "Marquis of Yongan, you proposed this strategy. What do you think about attacking Liang Shidu?"

Li Zexuan couldn't help but say mmp in his heart, thinking that the two sides are arguing so fiercely, why are you calling Xiaoye at this time? What do you ask my lord to say? Agreeing with one party is bound to make the other party unhappy!

Tucao returned to Tucao, but since Li Er named his name, Li Zexuan had no choice but to say:

"Returning to Your Majesty, the minister has no high opinion, only a humble opinion. With the opinion of the minister, the opinions of Zhao Guogong, General Li and Du Xianggong are not in conflict! We can take the army to persuade the surrender! For example, before the army besieged the city, send envoys into the city to persuade Liang Shidu surrendered to the Tang Dynasty. Of course, Du Xianggong also said that due to Liang Shidu's temperament, he would definitely not surrender. At that time, as soon as the messenger came out, the army would directly surround Shuofang, forcing Liang Shidu to ask for help. !"

In this way, both sides are not guilty!

Li Zexuan added silently in his heart.

In the court, only the old Youzi who does not offend others can live longer!

After being an official for so long, Li Zexuan felt that his emotional intelligence seemed to have increased.

"Okay! It's good to be a soldier first! But according to the old man, this might not be called killing and killing hearts, right?"

Zhangsun Wuji said with a smile.

"Hey! This is good! If you treat that old bastard Liang Shidu, you should kill and punish him!"

Cheng Yaojin also agreed with a smile.

Li Er nodded, and finally said: "Okay! Just do as the Hou Yongan said! Order, Chai Shao and Xue Wanjun lead 50,000 Youwei Guards, and cooperate with 30,000 Xia Prefecture soldiers to jointly besiege Liang Shidu, be sure to take Xiashuofang! I will send two officials of Taichang Temple to go out with the army, and before the army besieged the city, let them enter the city to recruit surrender, and after they return without success, then attack with the army~!"

Chai Shao and Xue Wanjun stepped forward one after another, clasped their fists and said, "This minister leads the order!"

These two are tough guys!

In the early years of the Tang Dynasty, Chai Shao fought a lot of battles with the East Turks and Tuyuhun, and they fought very well. In the first year of Zhenguan, Chai Shao, who had made many military exploits, was appointed General of Youwei. And this guy also married Li Yuan's daughter, Princess Pingyang, who is also Li Er's brother-in-law!

Now that Lao Li has Chai Shao as his general, it is very likely that he wants to give his brother-in-law some more military exploits. After all, the battle to destroy Liang Shidu is a war with a relatively small "difficulty factor"!

Xue Wanjun is Xue Wanche's older brother. Back then, the brothers were very much used under Luo Yi's hands, and they caused many problems for Dou Jiande. Later, Liu Heikuo shaved his head, but that can only be blamed on Li Shentong's incompetence.

Seeing Li Er, they only sent Chai Shao and Xue Wanjun. Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde were immediately anxious, and Lao Cheng immediately said, "Your Majesty, the old minister also invites you to fight!"

Unwilling to be left behind, Yuchi Jingde also clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister also invites the battle! The old minister missed the battle of Guancheng last time, but this time against Liang Shidu, the old minister must not miss it no matter what!"

Li Er thought about it for a while, and finally nodded and said, "Well, let Jingde be the commander-in-chief of destroying Liang, Chai Shao as the general on the left, and Xue Wanjun as the general on the right. Within three days, clear the troops and go to Shuofang. !"

Yuchi Jingde was overjoyed, and quickly clasped his fists and said, "Old minister, thank you, Your Majesty!"

Chai Shao and Xue Wanjun inexplicably have an extra boss, but Yuchi Jingde's qualifications are there, they don't say much, they can only bow and say: "I will obey the order!"

Just like this, Cheng Yaojin was completely unhappy, and Old Cheng said unwillingly: "Your Majesty, there are also old ministers!"

Li Er said angrily: "Master Liang has run out of anger, and Jingde, Chai Shao, and Xue Wanjun are enough, so what's the point of killing chickens? Could it be that you still want me to send all the generals of the Tang Dynasty? Retire!"

To tell the truth, Li Er really didn't take Master Liang seriously. According to his initial thoughts, he only wanted to send two generals, Chai Shao and Xue Wanjun, and adding Yuchi Jingde was the limit. Now, if Cheng Yaojin is added in, then Lao Li can only say to Master Liang, "You are not worthy"!

Cheng Yaojin ate a slump, did not dare to resist, and retreated in a muffled voice.

Li Er continued: "The Ministry of Household mobilized the army quickly, while the Ministry of Industry needs to prepare weapons and armor for the army, Xiao Aiqing, Yan Aiqing, you have worked hard for these two days~!"

Xiao Yu and Yan Lide hurriedly bowed and said, "Your Majesty's words are serious, and this is the duty of ministers and others~!"

Li Er nodded and said, "If that's the case, then everyone Aiqing will go back and prepare immediately~!"

Everyone bowed and said, "I will retire from this minister~!"

"Marquis of Yongan, you stay~!"

Old Li suddenly added another sentence, and Li Zexuan, who had already stepped out with his feet, had no choice but to withdraw his feet.

"...Yes! Your Majesty~!"

Cheng Yaojin patted Li Zexuan on the shoulder, then cast a sympathetic look and left in front of Li Zexuan.

"You kid, do you know why I left you alone?"

After all the important officials left, Li Er stood up, walked down the hall, looked at Li Zexuan and asked with a smile.

Li Zexuan pondered for a moment, then cupped his hands and said: "Does your Majesty want to send students to go with the army with telegraphs, fairy lights, and telescopes, just like the last time he attacked Guancheng?"

Li Er shook his head and said, "Of course not! Master Liang is just a grasshopper after the autumn, so why use divine tools to kill him? Besides, telegraphs, fairy lights, telescopes, etc., I don't want to make Turks so early. I know that it would be nice to give Jie Li a surprise when the decisive battle happens in the future~!”

Li Zexuan knew instantly, Dareqing Lao Li looked down on Liang Shidu, and wanted to give Jie Lizang a killer move!

"Then the sage left Wei Chen, what's the matter?"

Li Zexuan really couldn't guess, so he asked.

Li Er stared into his eyes and said, "I ask you, how much iron can your iron factory make in a day? And how much steel can your steel factory make in a day~?"

Li Zexuan's heart moved, he hesitated for a moment, and then replied: "Go back to Your Majesty, if the iron smelting factory is full of production, it can make more than 2,000 catties of iron a day. As for the steel factory, it can also make more than 2,000 catties of steel every day~! "

Speaking of which, his output of 2,000 catties a day is actually not that high, only a few hundred tons a year! You must know that according to the original history, the annual output of steel in the middle of the Tang Dynasty could reach 5,000 tons, and the Song Dynasty was even more ruthless, and the annual output of steel could reach more than 70,000 tons, so his annual output of several hundred tons is not high. The main reason is that the scale of iron and steel plants is somewhat small!

But then again, he is already the most productive iron and steel plant in Datang!

"Two thousand kilograms per day?"

Li Er's face moved slightly, and he sighed lightly. He said to Li Zexuan: "You must have seen the situation in the court today. The war between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks is not far away! Don't look at the judgments in the Turks now. , but its strength is still not to be underestimated! It is said that Jie Li has millions of people who control the strings, the Turks are all soldiers, and they live in the grasslands all the year round, and most of them are brave and good at fighting!

Therefore, this war with the Turks is definitely not easy to fight! As the saying goes, if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your weapons. Before the war, I plan to recruit elite soldiers from the Hundred Riders, expand the Xuanjia Army, and update a batch of armor and equipment for the Xuanjia Army. The steel used in this is , how about it being produced by your workshop? "

Li Zexuan heard the words, without any hesitation, he bowed and said: "It is my duty~!"

Seeing Li Zexuan's promise so bluntly, Li Er was quite surprised, and said: "Oh! Your kid has always been a master who can't walk without benefit. Today, I haven't promised you any benefit, why did you promise so bluntly. already?"

Li Zexuan said sternly: "Your Majesty is joking! In the face of the great enemy of the country, let alone let the minister donate some steel, as long as the foreign enemy can be slaughtered, even if the minister gives all his wealth, the minister is willing! In front of this big right and wrong, you can still tell the difference~!"

Li Zexuan is not stupid, he understands better than anyone else that only when the country is stable can he live comfortably in the Tang Dynasty.

Li Er's eyes showed admiration, and he smiled slightly: "Okay! Good boy! I didn't read you wrong! The vanadium mine in Shu is expected to be mined soon! At that time, I hope you will refine a batch of them. The vanadium steel you mentioned earlier will be used to make armor and swords for the Xuanjia Army! I want to make the Xuanjia Army's sharp sword of the Tang Dynasty even sharper, and then pierce Jie Li's heart~!"
