meanwhile.

In the palace of Chang'an city.

Li Shimin is very busy these days.

On the one hand, we have to deal with the war on the other side of kuci City, and on the other hand, we have to deal with the mess of Chushan Academy.

The battle in Kucha city is now advancing almost by an overwhelming advantage. The Allied forces of Tianzhu and Turk also organized a largest siege a few days ago.

But under the deterrence of bed crossbow and red cannon, and the cross attack of Niu JINDA and Li Chengqian's fire gun team.

In less than three hours.

The Allied forces, known as 300000 troops, were defeated by less than 30000 main Pioneers!

Li Chengqian and Niu JINDA also took the opportunity to pursue the coalition forces all the way from Kucha city to tuhuoluo until the coalition forces completely dispersed, and then they stationed in tuhuoluo.

The territory of Datang also extended hundreds of kilometers to the West from Kucha because of this war.

This has greatly increased Li Shimin's confidence

This morning, I wanted to discuss whether to take advantage of the high morale and divide troops in two ways at one stroke. The 100000 troops of Tubo and the 15000 elite of kuci directly entered Tianzhu. On the other hand, Cheng Yaojin led the 100000 elite of Longyou into Turks.

But

The opposition of many people and ministers in the court nearly made Li Shimin go wild.

The reason also made Li Shimin completely speechless.

In particular, the Ministry of accounts directly handed over the account books to prepare for returning home.

The reason is no money!

This made Li Shimin somewhat unexpected.

After all, Fang Xuanling, the nominal Minister of the Ministry of household now, and if others want to go, Li Shimin will wave his pen directly.

Just go if you like.

But Fang Xuanling is different.

This can't help but make Li Shimin wake up from the excitement of the victory. After all, the national strength of Datang is weak. Although there are Zhang Feng's money making things at this time, it still needs some time.

It's like what Zhang Feng said to him before he left.

The best way is to wait until next spring and have enough food and grass. Even if you reach the end of the world all the way, it's not a problem.

To put it bluntly, it's poor.

Three things are most consumed in war.

The same is silver, grain and grass, and armaments.

At present, the problem of armaments can almost be solved as long as an army of 100000 people is equipped with 10000 fire guns, several cannons and improved bows and crossbows.

Almost enough to be rolled.

But soldiers have to eat.

Since the next Dynasty.

Wei Zheng and others surrounded Li Shimin like flies. Even if he ate, they all surrounded him. That means that as long as he doesn't let go, he won't play today.

As a last resort, Li Shimin had to give up the idea of chasing after the victory.

After all, everyone knows his own business.

Datang at this time, can you play?

No.

In the imperial garden.

Li Shimin finally relaxed.

Looking at the dark sky, I stand by the lake with my hands down. I don't know what I'm thinking.

Little Guizi stood not far away. Although he was worried, he didn't dare to come forward.

Right now.

Yuchi Gong hid on the edge of a peony Bush and made a gesture to the little noble son.

Seeing this, little noble son was looking at Li Shimin, and he came over reluctantly.

"Little noble son, how is the emperor feeling now?"

Yuchi Gong asked directly.

I didn't forget to hand over a cigarette to your son.

The little noble son lit a cigarette and sighed: "the emperor has only been standing here for an hour. I don't know how the emperor is feeling at this time, but if the Duke of E is all right, it's best not to bother the emperor at this time."

Yuchi Gong's eyebrows turned into a pimple when he heard the speech.

"If it's ordinary, I know, but it's an emergency in Jiangnan..."

"Jiangnan?"

The young gentleman's eyebrows jumped, glanced at Li Shimin and asked, "Duke of E, do you mean... Prince Zhang?"

"Yes!"

Seeing Yuchi Gong's affirmation, the little noble son didn't dare to delay and hurriedly said, "later, I'll report it!"

While talking, the little noble son went to report. Yuchi Gong was also upset and walked in circles.

No less than a cup of tea, the little noble son called Yuchi Gong in a hurry. Then he hurried to tidy up his clothes and walked forward.

At the moment, Li Shimin also returned to normal.

I can no longer see him in a violent state just now.

"Wei Chi, what's going on in Jiangnan?"

Seeing the emperor's direct inquiry, Yuchi Gong hurriedly said, "emperor, just got the reward from the spy. The situation in Jiangnan is very bad."

Yuchi Gong gave a detailed report on Jiangnan.

Li Shimin's face was cold.

Although he has always been wary of things in the south of the Yangtze River, and although he has been paying attention to this special place in the south of the Yangtze River, he has not really understood the superficial peace and there are too many things. Now I hear Yuchi Gong say so.

This place is in a terrible mess.

It has become the back garden of five surnames and seven nationalities.

This

If Zhang Feng hadn't gone to Jiangnan, he wouldn't know that there are so many things hidden in this seemingly calm Jiangnan.

"The reason why I let your family develop in Jiangnan is to clamp down on these people. Yuchi Gong, why did I get good news before? What crime should you commit?"

Seeing Li Shimin's anger, Yuchi Gong quickly knelt down and said, "emperor, please listen to the minister's explanation."

"In fact, at the beginning, these families were sure to hide deeply, but there were some changes because of yu'er. In addition, Zhang Feng didn't deliberately hide when he went to the south of the Yangtze River, so it caused the current situation..."

"Do you mean that the current situation is caused by Fengzi and has nothing to do with you?"

Li Shimin was angry.

He shouted loudly, "what's the use of your weichi family?"
