Vol 2 Chapter 1376: Chaotang melee, 3 confederates enter the court!

"Oh? Du Aiqing also thinks I should send troops to attack Jieli?"
Tai Chi Hall.
Du Ruhui came out more and more, and Li Er's eyes lit up and asked with a smile.
Li Erbi knows that Datang is not ready for a full-scale war with Turks, but it is one thing not to be prepared, and it is another thing to dare to fight, as long as the decision is made to fight, the entire Datang operation Get up, the speed of preparing for battle will definitely be fast!
Du Ruhui arched his hands and said: "Returning to your majesty, the old minister thinks that what Lu Guogong said is reasonable. Datang does not need to be honest with Jieli, because sooner or later he will violate the covenant. Now the chaos in Turkistan is a good time to attack! What's more, attacking countries with civil strife has been a custom since ancient times. Datang cannot be afraid of the covenant and miss out on fighters~!"
"Fang Mou Du Jue" really lives up to its name, Du Ruhui has a sharp eye, and directly asserts that the original covenant is a piece of waste paper in the eyes of the Turkic people!
When Du Ruhui finished speaking, Cheng Yaojin immediately said excitedly: "Hehe! Lao Du, I didn’t see Lao Cheng before, and I didn’t find that you are also a tough one. I don’t care about you! Hehe! This is how I am. I used to apologize to you for clumsy eyesight, and when you get better another day, I will invite you to drink~!"
After all, the servant patted Du Ruhui's shoulder lightly. He looked very intimate, just like a good buddy who had known each other for many years.
Du Ruhui's mouth twitched slightly, and then moved two steps imperceptibly to the side, keeping a "safe distance" from Cheng Yaojin, and then arched his hands expressionlessly: "Guogong Lu, the old man is just discussing matters, not personal relations, please go to Lu Guogong. Self-respect!"
"Hey! Good! Good! Good! My old Cheng respects himself!"
Cheng Yaojin was boring, so he touched his nose, laughed, and stood back to his original position.
This is just an episode.
At this time, seeing that Cheng Yaojin was no longer making noise, Fang Xuanling came out more and more, and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that Keming is right. Now the Turkic civil strife is a godsend for my Datang. Jie Libing approached the city, and the reason why he wanted to make an agreement with Datang was because he couldn't understand the reality of Chang'an City, and he didn't dare to attack the city. It was definitely not because he wanted to build an eternal life with me!
Foreign Turks have been watching my Central Plains for many years. Once they are ready, or if there is a civil strife in the Tang Dynasty, they will disregard the covenant and directly attack the Tang Dynasty!
Therefore, instead of waiting for Jieli to attack us, it is better to immediately start organizing troops to attack Jieli! Now I have a large number of soldiers in the Tang Dynasty, with sufficient food and grass, and earnestly preparing for three or four months, I will definitely be able to fight Jieli! Otherwise, wait until the Tuli Khan is destroyed, and Jieli's family dominates, then I will attack Jieli again at that time, I don't know how many more men will die! "
Li Er nodded, just about to speak, Kong Yingda stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks it is inappropriate to do this! Datang is a kingdom of heaven and ceremonies, how can such treachery be done? He secretly hides evil intentions, but as long as he does not take the initiative and does not violate the covenant, then we cannot send troops! Otherwise, where is the prestige of the court? Where is your majesty's monarchy? Who else will believe my Datang promise in the future?"
Changsun Wuji also handed his hand: "Kong Jijiu is right! Since Datang is a country of gentlemen, there must be a gentleman's style! If we send troops first, we can certainly win the initiative, but we will also be influenced by the world. Spurn, by then, the teacher of justice will become the teacher of innocence, and other neighboring countries will no longer believe my promise of Datang. For Datang, the gain will not be worth the loss!
Furthermore, even if we do not attack the Turks now, we can still prepare secretly, recruit good soldiers and horses, and hoard good food and grass. Once the Turks tear up the covenant or make a move that violates the covenant, it will not be too late for us to attack! Even if Tuuli is destroyed and the Jieli family dominates, but we are fully prepared, we may not suffer their losses~! "
"Om~!"
"The minister agrees, Datang must not lose face! Your majesty's monarchy must not be lost! The court can secretly mobilize soldiers and horses, but it must not take the initiative to tear up the covenant!"
Xiao Yu, Shangshu of Hubu, stepped forward and arched his hands.
"The ministers seconded~!"
After Kong Yingda and Changsun Wuji have said these two things, the civil and military officials in the court are all awakened from a dream, and more and more officials have spoken in support. Cheng Yaojin, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui seemed a little bit trendy for a while. Single force alone, alone tree hard to support!
This has nothing to do with factional struggles. In the early Tang Dynasty, there were basically no factional struggles in the court. The reason why these officials did not agree with the court to send troops was not because they wanted to stand in the same camp as Changsun Wuji, but because Changsun Wuji and Kong Yingda said That makes sense!
Great country promises! If Datang didn't believe his words, he would certainly be able to gain a little bit of opportunity in the war against Turks, but he lost the national prestige, and he couldn't make up for it!
Li Zexuan, who was in the civilian camp, couldn't help frowning when he saw this scene. Although he was also the main fighter, he also had to admit that there was some truth in what Changsun Wuji had said to Kong Yingda. As a big country in the Central Plains, he naturally had to pay attention. The prestige of the country cannot be changed day by day, or the prestige will be lost, and no country will believe in Datang anymore. The loss is really too great!
After all, although the current Datang is strong, it is not strong enough to compete with the nations of the world without any allies!
Li Er, sitting on the top of the head, could not see the situation of the court at the moment. He knew that with the current situation, Datang was determined not to send troops to support Tuli. He frowned, pondered for a long time, and was about to speak. When announcing that he would not send troops, a guard ran in from outside the hall, bowed his fist and said:
"Report~! Your Majesty, the envoy sent by the Khitan chief has arrived outside the palace! At the same time, the envoy of the Jie Li Khan faction has also arrived!"
As soon as his voice fell, the civil and military officials on the court suddenly became a little confused!
"What? Chief Khitan and Khan Jieli sent envoys at the same time?"
"What are they trying to do?"
"What would Jie Li want to do badly?"
A few quarters of an hour ago, Tuli’s son and the sent envoys had just left the palace, but now the Khitan tribe under Tuli’s previous jurisdiction and Tuli’s deadly enemy Jie Li Khan sent envoys at the same time!
The early days of the Tang Dynasty were never as lively as they are today!
In fact, it's not just the hundreds of officials who were bewildered. Li Er, who was sitting on the dragon chair, was also a little confused at this moment. Lao Li closed his eyes and pondered for a while before suddenly commanding: "Let the envoys from the Khitan tribe come to see me in advance! "
"Here!"
The guard in front of the hall clasped his fists and promised, then turned and left the Tai Chi Hall!
After a while, the guard led three Turkic people into the Taiji Hall. When the three saw Li Er, they respectfully bowed to a Han, and a Khitan at the head spoke a non-standard Chinese. , Said loudly: "Qimi Liangwu of the Khitan tribe has seen His Majesty the Emperor of Tang Dynasty!"
"Free gift!"
Li Er waved his hand and asked directly: "The Khitan chief Pyer waited for the pilgrimage, what happened?"
Qi Mi Liangwu bowed and said: "Returning to His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Qi Mi Liangwu is here to represent our chieftain and show allegiance to the Tang court. The chieftain has led the people from Yunzhou to enter the Great Tang, is now coming towards Chang'an City, hoping that your majesty can take in the Khitan tribe, and the Khitan tribe is willing to swear allegiance to your majesty~!"
After the Turli Khan, the Khitan tribe of the East Turks would also return to the Tang Dynasty?
Everyone in the hall opened their eyes wide, and cried out unbelievably!
Within a day, the two major forces of the East Turks were about to surrender to the Tang dynasty. Is it true that the Turks have split the way?
Li Er was not dazzled by joy, his gaze sank, and he asked: "The Khitan tribe is also considered a strong tribe among the tribes of the East Turks. It's so good, why should the chief of your Khitan tribe lead the tribe? Return to my Datang?"
Qi Mi Liangwu hurriedly said: "Returning to His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the Khitan tribe was originally under the jurisdiction of the Tuli Khan, but since the beginning of this year, the contradiction between Jieli Khan and Tuli Khan has deepened. Recently, the swordsmen are facing each other. The Khan ordered my ministry to attack the Tuli Khan, but my Khitan chief had been greatly favored by Shibi Khan, how can I hurt his descendants? Therefore, my chief did not receive an order. UU read www.uukanshuu.com but Jieli The Khan sent troops to retaliate, and in the end he could only bring all the tribes and come back to the Tang Dynasty! I implore your Majesty to take in the Khitan tribe~!"
"Om~!"
The faces of the people in Chaotang are full of surprises!
The strength of the Khitan tribe is good. Their chiefs can lead the tribe and take the initiative to return to the Tang Dynasty, which not only weakens the strength of the East Turks, but also increases the strength of the Tang Dynasty in a disguised manner. In such a good thing, it can only be said that it is God Blessed Don~!
"That's it~!"
Li Er understood his heart and pondered for a moment. He sighed: "Chief Erbu is also a kind and righteous person. Since Jie Li can't afford to wait for you, then as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, I naturally welcome you to come to my Tang! You can send troops and horses to pick up the chiefs of the Uygur Department~!"
Regarding Li Er's decision, no one opposed it. After all, the descendant army sent to the door should not be for nothing!
Qi Mi Liangwu said with joy: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Emperor Datang!"
Li Er nodded contentedly, and said: "You wait for all the chariots, let's go back to the post and rest! I will immediately send someone to meet your chief!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Emperor Datang! Qi Mi Liangwu retire~!"
Qi Mi Liangwu saluted, and then pushed out the hall.
Li Er's eyes narrowed, and he commanded: "The messenger of Chuan Jieli comes in!"
"Pass Jieli Khan to make an audience~!"
"Pass Jieli Khan to make an audience~!"
His own spread Li Er's will out loudly. After a while, a strong Turkic man with two medium-sized Turkic men walked into the hall.
The Turkic man has not yet reported his identity, but Li Er, who sits on top of his head, couldn't help but exclaimed, "It turned out to be you?"
