Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

"How to do it?" Everyone looked over.

"When the envoys from Baekje and Silla came over, they immediately stated that our Tang Dynasty had paid attention to the situation between Silla, Baekje and Goguryeo, and said that their war had affected the stability of the region. The civilian population in this area has taken a huge toll."

"So in order to avoid greater local casualties, Datang decided to send troops directly to help Baekje and Silla stabilize the situation. At the same time, the diplomatic envoys who reprimanded the King of Goguryeo can start at the same time."

"No matter what the result is, it is impossible for Goguryeo to stop its military operations just because we sent troops, so to some extent, Goguryeo may even want to test the strength of the Tang army."

"Because Goguryeo's goal is our Datang from the beginning to the end, and even they themselves are very clear that the goal of Datang is also them from the beginning to the end."

"So our previous method can be started directly." Li Ke said very simply.

"Your Highness, do we need to show our weakness to the enemy?" Cheng Yaojin asked, obviously he was afraid that if he used too much force, he would directly defeat Goguryeo.

"No, you can fight if you want to be strong, and this time there can't be many troops for you, and your total army strength is only [-]." Li Ke simply shook his head.

"Cheng Heizi, don't mistake your target." Yuchi Gong who was next to him said.

"You know what a fart, tell me what our goal is?" Cheng Yaojin stared at him and asked.

"Isn't this simple? Your goal is to publicize the power of our Datang, to the people of Baekje and Silla, to publicize our power, to publicize Datang, to publicize our army and the current governance philosophy of Datang, and Not to attack Goguryeo."

"What you have to do is to stabilize the situation on the front line. It's better to delay it for a year and a half."

"You fucking Goguryeo? Is that what you should do?" Yu Chigong said disdainfully.

Although Cheng Yaojin wanted to refute, but he had to say that Yu Chigong was right this time.

"Lu Guogong, there is no problem with E Guogong's words this time, your main task is not to fight Goguryeo." Li Xiaogong said.

"Hmph, isn't this a clear thing? Your Highness said it before, you need to show off? I just asked His Highness if you need to drag more Goguryeo troops here." Cheng Yaojin glanced at Yuchi disdainfully Gong said.

"Since everyone has no objections, then just follow this plan." Li Shimin nodded, "Do you need to change the time for the exam in mid-June?"

"No, when will the Tang Dynasty need to look at the faces of these small countries? Besides, the transfer of the Tang army has nothing to do with the country. The country is Hu Guogong's territory." Li Ke said.

Since Qin Qiong is not in charge of the military, Qin Qiong will naturally not attend this military meeting.

"When the time comes, Duke Kui." Li Ke looked at Liu Hongji beside him.

"The minister is here."

"You are in charge of the logistics now, and the logistics will keep up as soon as possible, and you will be in charge of the dispatch with the navy!" Li Ke said.

"Yes. Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the minister and other logistics departments will never delay the matter. In addition, please pay more attention to Liang Guogong." Liu Hongji said.

"It's easy to say. This is a major national event, and the Minister of Finance will naturally fully support it." Fang Xuanling nodded and said.

"Aren't you going too far? There's no need to be so nervous. This is just a local conflict. It's just that this action comes with some special propaganda actions. Don't worry about that." Li Ke smiled. road.

After everyone laughed, Li Ke continued: "Compared to the pressure from Prince Jiangxia and Duke Lu, this operation is actually testing Datang's current logistics support system."

"As long as the logistics keep up, the pressure on Jiangxia Junwang and Lu Guogong is actually very small."

"Yes." Everyone nodded and said yes. After thinking about it carefully, it was indeed the case. The money spent by the Tang court this time was not a small amount. Naturally, the foreign war had to be funded by the court.

All aspects of weapons and equipment, food, including transportation, have to be spent from the imperial treasury, and a certain amount of profit must be set aside for the state-owned firms in charge of related matters.

Although this part of the profit will be very small, it is left-handed and right-handed, but this kind of turnover must be reversed, and the money must be circulated.

"By the way, I have a question here." Fang Xuanling said.

"What's the problem?" Everyone looked over one after another. This time it was a meeting of the military department, but it definitely needed the support of Shangshu Province. Fang Xuanling's opinion was naturally very important.

"It should be a matter of the Ministry of State-owned Assets. Datang Grain Storage has a batch of old rice that is more than two years old. Although it is old rice, it has not deteriorated, but the taste is slightly poor. Overall, the problem is not big. The Ministry of State-owned Assets It can be sold to the military at an extremely low price." Fang Xuanling said with a smile.

"No, Liang Guogong, you are going too far." Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but started to yell, "You let our soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who fought abroad eat old rice?"

If Cheng Yaojin's words were put a few years ago, he would have been beaten to death. What happened to the soldiers eating old rice?Being able to eat rice is considered a luxury. When will ordinary soldiers be able to eat enough rice?

Can't eat old rice anymore?

But for the current Tang Dynasty, after there is no shortage of food, people in the military department are naturally unwilling to eat old rice.

"Lu Guogong misunderstood my meaning. What I mean is that during the special operations of the army in the two countries, there are many places that need to use food, and these old rice can just be used for consumption in these places. "

"Although a lot of them were sold to the islands of the Wa country before, there is still a lot of stock in stock." Fang Xuanling said.

"Then this is of course no problem, but should we just use rice for them? Isn't that a little too good?" Cheng Yaojin changed his tone instantly.

"Let's use Chen Mi, otherwise it would be better to highlight Datang." Li Ke made a direct decision.

Chen Mina is also rice. That's right, corn, which is a traditional food in the Tang Dynasty, has gradually begun to withdraw from the stage of staple food.

At least the grain reserve of the national strategic reserve no longer stores corn, but mainly rice and wheat, and other supplementary grains are also available.

Li Ke spoke, and everyone naturally had no opinion.

The military meeting was held more quickly and quickly than expected, and the preparations and finalization of this incident were completed within one day.

In other words, the plan has already been prepared, and before there are any major changes, just follow the plan.

It is still the same sentence now, it is a mule or a horse, and it is time to take it out for a walk.
