Chapter 1210 The Eldest Grandson Brothers
Li Xiang left Wacheng early in the morning on the second day. Changsun Ze turned back three times every step of the way, as if there was some girl in this city who cared about his heart.
Of course Li Xiang knew that there was no girl in this city who cared about him, but that guy Cao Lian cared about him.
"Your Highness, are we too hasty? This guy is actually a businessman, and the scale of his business is not too big. If you give him such an important task now, if you mess up, it will be our Datang who will lose it." People from the imperial court.”
Changsun Ze wanted to say this since yesterday, but he felt that he was not qualified. After all, he was just a dandy from Chang'an City. Now he is helping Datang to guard the border, right? And it’s dry and tasty.
If we talk about starting out, Cao Lian's start was much better than mine. At least he was doing serious things from the beginning. I am a monk who became a monk halfway. We can do this step, let alone him.
"What's there to be ashamed of? It's been decided anyway. After returning to Chang'an City, there is nothing else to do. He will immediately raise his troops and go south. Even if he screws up, it will be nothing more than screwing up. By then, the entire country will no longer exist. , we have nothing to be ashamed of, but if he succeeds, it means that this person is available."
Li Xiang's words made Changsun Ze not know what to say. He actually used a country to verify whether a person was useful. Of course, according to Li Xiang, this was just a casual operation, so there was no need to worry at all.
"Then I dare to ask, is there a final limit for our Tang army's offensive?"
Changsun Ze is not a war monger and he hopes to open up new territories, but the problem is that Li Xiang is never idle. Although the cost of each war is not high, it also causes the Tang Dynasty to always be in war. If it continues like this, Isn't it good for Datang?
"Of course there are boundaries for attack. Once we capture Tianzhu, it will be time for our Tang Dynasty to recuperate. Although there will be more powerful enemies, we must accumulate strength, otherwise we will not be able to kill with one strike."
In the eyes of many Tang people, Tianzhu is already very powerful. If even such a country is inferior to our ultimate enemy, then how powerful is our ultimate enemy?
Li Xiang had no way to tell them. They must know that the Arab Empire at this moment is the ultimate enemy of the Tang Dynasty, but everyone knows too little about the Arab Empire. Of course, the current Arab Empire is not that powerful. As long as we develop step by step, It is safe to crush them in the end.
When he went back, he traveled faster. When he came, he looked around. When he came back, he was just on his way. So it only took two days for Li Xiang to return to Anxi City. Let Changsun Ze send out cavalry, and they will become the military personnel of the Tang Dynasty stationed abroad.
"You should be more careful about things here. If possible, you can also hire a group of people from Nanzhao. They are also considered our own people, but I must confuse them with the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. I can't Let them have independent arms."
Nanzhao's geographical location is within the Tang Dynasty, so this group of people has a natural advantage. If it is not available, the sword in Li Xiang's hand is definitely not soft, but this opportunity should be given.
Compared with the people of Goguryeo and Fusang, the people of Nanzhao should be living in a honeypot. Take the people of Fusang and Goguryeo as examples. They are either slaves or cannon fodder. In addition, Li Xiang will never Give them other choices, because we know the bad nature of these two nations very well, so now that we have captured them, we must squeeze them severely and not let them stand up one day, even if it means destroying them all. ethnic groups, and we cannot allow these two ethnic groups to create obstacles for us in the future.
"Don't worry, Your Highness, my subordinates will make arrangements immediately. I will definitely not delay His Highness's important events."
Changsunze was also gearing up at this moment. He finally caught this opportunity. He originally thought that he would have his own position during the Eastern Expedition to Fusang, but who knew that he would be sent to the south. Now His Highness wants to use this as a base to attack south. If If there is no more work for us, I might as well leave my job and go back to Chang'an to become a dandy.
"My eldest brother is back..."
Changsun Chong was supposed to stay for a while, but when he came back he heard that Li Xiang had arrived at the southern border, so this guy worked hard all the way and finally came back before Li Xiang left.
"I have been hurrying but I still haven't caught up with you. Otherwise, I would have followed you to the south to have a look."
Although Chang Sun Chong and Chang Sun Ze are brothers, Chang Sun Chong is older. When talking to Li Xiang, if there are no outsiders, they are very easy-going. This is also a habit they have developed over a long time.
At the beginning, Changsun Wuji was reluctant and even gave Changsun a lesson. Later, he saw that Li Xiang really didn't care about these etiquettes, so he just let them go. What's more, Changsun Wuji also wanted his two sons. Being able to have some personal friendship with Li Xiang is extremely beneficial to the entire eldest son's family.
"There's nothing good to see in the south. It will be our own place in the future. If you are willing to go and see it then, I'm afraid it won't be a problem for you to see it every day."
Li Xiang would never hide his ambitions in front of his own people. Changsun Chong had heard about Li Xiang's southern strategy a long time ago. He thought that his strategy would be finished in Nanzhao. Who knew that Nanzhao was just a starting place? To the south is Li Xiang’s vast sky.
"We don't understand your talents and strategies, but we two brothers understand one thing. This time it will be our two brothers' turn to conquer the south. We don't care about the things in the rear, especially the things in Nanzhao. , you need to find someone else to take care of logistics for you."
Changsun Chong said with some worry that in the past, the two brothers were excluded by Li Xiang due to various problems in their previous battles. Now that they finally got this opportunity, they must work hard.
"It's hard to say. This time when I return to the court, I want to find such a person. Then you two brothers and so, the general will definitely be yours. But if you can't find such a person, you will have to find one. Please handle the logistics for me from the rear."
What Li Xiang said is the truth. You must know that logistics is what fights a war. If logistics cannot be guaranteed, I really don't know how to fight this war in the future. (End of chapter)
