After Wang Jian finished speaking, he bowed, then returned to his seat and sat down.
His attitude has been made clear. The rest depends on Li Shimin's decision.
"Bah, bang, bang, bang~"
Li Shimin clapped his hands and said loudly: "Wang Aiqing said it well!"
"I, the great Tang Dynasty, The people have been trampled on by little Tuyuhun. If we don’t punish them, everyone will want to take advantage of us in the future.”
The reason why Tuyuhun dared to cross the border again and again to fight the autumn wind in the Tang Dynasty. , himself also learned from the Eastern Turks.
Although the Eastern Turks were destroyed by the Tang Dynasty last year, King Tianzhu, the prime minister of Tubo, believed that the reason why the Tang army destroyed the Eastern Turks was because they reached the Weishui River in the first year of Zhenguan.
And they also forced Datang to sign the Weishui Alliance.
King Tianzhu firmly believed that as long as they made a small fuss, the Tang army would not make a big move against them.
King Murong Fuyun was deceived by him and felt that what King Tianzhu said was reasonable.
Coupled with the cold wave at the end of last year, many cattle and sheep froze to death, resulting in a serious shortage of food for them.
Then he took the risk and went to the Tang Dynasty to plunder.
Fang Xuanling stood up at the right time and said: "Your Majesty, the South Silk Road passes through Tuyuhun. If the safety of this road cannot be guaranteed, the interests of merchants cannot be protected."
< p> "This opened Silk Road has become a name in name only, seriously affecting our trade with the countries in the Western Regions."Li Jing, the military god, followed closely: "Your Majesty, I support the Tuyuhun mobilized troops."
"We also support it."
Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Gong, Niu Jinda and others stood up to support.
Seeing that the voices supporting sending troops were getting louder and louder, Wei Zheng glanced at Wang Jian, then stood up and said.
"Wang Jian, where do you think the war against Tuyuhun should go?"
After hearing Wei Zheng's words, everyone looked at Wang Jian again.
Because this involves the strength of the Tang Dynasty’s counterattack against Tuyuhun.
If it is just a small punishment, just let Duan Zhixuan send troops to attack briefly.
If it were a big battle, the number of soldiers mobilized would probably be comparable to that of the Eastern Turks.
A lot of food and grass were used in the battle against Goguryeo last year, and it was winter now, so the food had not yet been harvested, and the people were also short of food.
Wang Jian stood up and said: "Tuyuhun is a troublemaker. The Sui Dynasty defeated them once before, but within a few years, the border continued to be harassed by them."
"I think the war in Tuyuhun should be treated the same as the Eastern Turks, turning it completely into the territory of our Tang Dynasty!"
Quiet!
A moment inside Liangyi HallThe room became deathly silent!
Everyone looked at Wang Jian in stunned silence, including Li Shimin, who advocated sending troops.
None of them expected that the youngest Wang Jian had such a big appetite.
Changsun Wuji shook his head and said: "Mr. Wang, if we want to destroy Tuyuhun, do you know how many troops we need to mobilize?"
"If we attack Tuyuhun, What should we do if other countries invade the Tang Dynasty? ”
Being young and energetic, he can understand, especially for someone like Wang Jian who has never experienced failure.
Wei Zheng hesitated to speak, but couldn't help but said: "If the sword of the Tang Dynasty is sharpened too sharply, it will definitely be feared by people from other countries."
"If they unite, the consequences will be disastrous!"
Those who opposed the war in Tuyuhun stood up again.
It must be said that both groups have their own reasons, and they are very sufficient.
But disagreeing with something is the scariest thing.
Li Shimin was silent and did not speak, but it could be seen from his expression that he was very unhappy at this time.
Fang Xuanling and Li Jing lowered their heads, thinking and weighing.
This chapter is not finished yet, click on the next page to continue reading.
The two of them are important advisers and generals, and they cannot act on their own initiative.
Thinking from the perspective of opposition can sometimes avoid problems.
Wang Jian’s considerations were not as complicated as theirs, so he stood up and said.
"Our Tang Dynasty faces Tuyuhun now, just like it faced the East Turks last year."
"If we are worried everywhere and think that if we send troops to attack one of the countries, the others will The countries will definitely unite to attack the Tang Dynasty, so this war will never have to be fought."
"According to your current thinking, as long as the powerful countries such as Tubo, Goguryeo, Xueyantuo and Western Turks do not destroy themselves, we We can never send troops."
After a pause, Wang Jian said in a higher tone.
"If you are afraid of your hands and feet, let alone open up territory for Your Majesty, even the safety of my people in the Tang Dynasty cannot be guaranteed."
"You generals might as well disband and return to the fields. Go home and farm more."
"When the time comes, I will pay tribute to the surrounding countries, and then kneel down and pray to them not to rob my people of the Tang Dynasty. Maybe they will see everyone's pious attitude. Open the net."
After hearing what Wang Jian said, Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng, Hou Junji and others were all stunned.
Zhang Liang, Chai Shao, Xue Wanche and others turned red with anger.
They wanted to cut Wang Jian into pieces on the spot.
Li Ji and Li Jing looked at each other and suddenly realized something in their hearts.
No wonder that when they were conquering the Eastern Turks, Wang Jian was able to talk to the Confucians and let them continue to encircle and suppress the Eastern Turks.
With his mouth as sharp as a knife, who can beat him?
He is bold and not afraid of offending others.
He is simply more stubborn than Wei Zheng.
When Li Shimin heard what his friend Ying Mengxianchen said, he slammed the table with excitement.
"Wang Aiqing said it well!"
"If we act timidly and worry about this and that, there is no need to do anything."
"Just open the treasury and beg for mercy from these little aliens!"
After hearing Li Shimin's last angry words, the expressions of Changsun Wuji, Hou Junji and others suddenly changed.
They all stood up and bowed.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me."
"We are also considering the current situation of the Tang Dynasty."
I am not afraid of His Majesty scolding people in public, I am afraid of Your Majesty It’s a weird way to say it, because it means His Majesty will remember it for a long time.
Li Shimin paced back and forth on the high steps with his hands behind his back, lowering his head in thought.
After a moment, he pointed at the ministers and said decisively.
"I have decided to conquer Tuyuhun. This battle will be a battle to destroy the country!"
"Completely incorporate Tuyuhun into my territory of the Tang Dynasty!"
This. ..
The scene was stunned for several breaths.
Wang Jian, Fang Xuanling, Li Jing, Li Ji, Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong were the first to bow and salute.
"Follow the order!"
Immediately afterwards, under Li Shimin's sharp eyes, Changsun Wuji, Hou Junji and other opponents also bowed their heads and saluted.
"We will obey the order!"
Except for Wei Zheng, who did not speak, everyone else at the scene, whether active or passive, all agreed to conquer Goguryeo.
Li Shimin automatically ignored Wei Zheng, a smile appeared on his face and said: "Okay! You are all good!"
