My grandson has this qualification, you can rest assured, Your Majesty.
"Duke Zhao has led the army for many years, and I have been paying attention to his methods. There are aggression like fire and immovability like a mountain. What I value more is his vision."
Li Ji raised his eyes with piercing eyes, "Your Majesty doesn't know, the commander is not brave, but the strategy, and the strategy is the first thing to look at. The commander can see beyond the attack, and can transcend the attack. He doesn't focus on gains and losses, but on the Big picture!"
The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was listening.
Li Ji's statement at the court meeting let everyone know what the military meant.
Then Li Ji went to drink with some old men.
Now arrange for Jia Pingan to drink with those generals again.
This is to get on the horse and send it off for another ride.
Taboo!
But the military has its own way of doing things. If the emperor intervenes, it will inevitably lead to a backlash.
Li Ji said: "I remember Zhao Guogong asserted that Tubo can only attack from the Western Regions. Some people refuted it. Zhao Guogong said something... Datang hopes to see the Tubo army rushing down from a high place. This is vision."
He explained: "It is impossible for the Tang Dynasty to attack some cities, so Tubo can attack whenever they want, and retreat whenever they want. But if they capture Tuyuhun, they will have no choice but to retreat."
"Why?" The queen was puzzled.
Li Ji said: "Tuyuhun is a land for raising horses, and it has arable land and population. Tubo is reluctant. If Lu Dongzan voluntarily abandons Tuyuhun, the dignitaries in the country will tear him to pieces."
Li Zhi understood, "This is to lure him with profit."
Li Ji nodded, "But Lu Dong praised his wisdom. After Datang wiped out Liaodong, he would not attack Tuyuhun, otherwise he would give the opportunity to Datang."
"This is the vision of the commander-in-chief!" Wu Mei said.
Li Ji nodded.
The emperor looked at Li Ji.
Li Ji's eyes were warm and downcast slightly, but he didn't avoid it.
The queen was silent on the sidelines.
After a long time, relief appeared in the emperor's eyes.
"I know."
Li Ji got up and saluted, "I am old, I can no longer mount a horse to kill the enemy."
This is the begging bones!
From today onwards, the minister can no longer go to war!
It's more of a ritual.
An aged veteran, a young and vigorous emperor.
The emperor got up and walked over, helped Li Ji up with his own hands, and said in a gentle voice, "Your heart has been devoted to the Tang Dynasty, you have been born and died, I know all about it."
The old officials in the late emperor's period were gradually withering, but it did not make the emperor feel depressed, but excited.
"The British Duke will not go to war in the future."
The emperor watched Li Ji leave with a calm expression.
The queen said: "Thinking back when the powerful officials were in power, if it weren't for the British Duke, it would be difficult for Your Majesty."
——Being a man requires a conscience.
The emperor nodded, "Li Ji abandoned martial arts, Cheng Zhijie and others are old, and there is only one Su Dingfang..."
Outside the city, Yiqi Fei rushed in.
Then he reported to the palace.
"Your Majesty, Xing Guogong's memorial."
Su Dingfang is currently in Longyou, and is fully responsible for the defense of Tubo.
Li Zhi took the memorial, bowed his head...
When he raised his head again, he said to Wu Mei: "Su Dingfang said that unless the Great Tang declines or there is a big enemy in another direction, Tubo will not attack Tuyuhun again."
Wu Mei raised her eyes, with joy in her eyes, "Although Ping'an has not reached Longyou, it is asserted so."
This look!
……
Jia Ping invited Xue Rengui to drink.
After drinking for three rounds, Xue Rengui said with some distress: "The old man has been staying in the guard palace for these years, and he is not allowed to use his hands and feet."
Some people in later generations said that Xue Rengui was born as a commoner, no, he was born in the Xue family in Hedong, and his father and ancestors were all officials, but because his father left early, his family was in decline.
The children of ordinary people are not skilled in bowing horses, and it is even more impossible to scare the Koreans in the first battle.
"There are many opportunities."
Jia Ping'an's voice was calm.
Xue Rengui raised his eyes, and his eyes burst out with splendor.
"where?"
Jia Pingan said: "Many tribes in the grassland seem to be sincerely convinced, but they are secretly ambitious. Tubo is ready to move after licking his wounds, and Ashina Helu has recharged his energy for many years, waiting for a good opportunity."
As for Dashi, there is no need to say, it is useless to Xue Rengui... It is impossible to use him to fight against Dashi.
Xue Rengui looked at him.
Why does the old man obey you?
Jia Pingan looked at him and said calmly: "It is foolish to attack Tubo."
Xue Rengui proposed to attack Tubo.
He smiled, "Why?"
Jia Pingan said: "Tubo is on a high ground, and the soldiers will be out of breath when they go up. It's not bad to be able to achieve four out of ten."
