Chapter 665 (2/2)
So in any case, since the big food country has begun to expand eastward and covet the wealth and land of the East, it is better to start to be strong first and occupy favorable strategic deployment before continuing to levy on the West.
After he finished speaking, he looked at the three men with an expression of thinking. Li Hong knocked on the case table again, pointing to the six imperial edicts in the southwest, and Zhenla, the kingdom of PYU, and the king Huan, which went further south.
In these places, it is impossible to rely solely on water routes. Naturally, land-based attacks are the top priority. Naturally, a large number of horses need to be transported there.
”So, do you understand? The task of the military department this year is to transport a large number of horses to the Annam Corps. As for why, you can all see why by looking at the map. I appointed you Pei Xingjian as the commander in chief of the South China Sea Navy, and I have already explained your task to you. However, any movement of the military department this year will not be known by the three of you On the map, Li Hong draws a circle back and forth in the horse raising area of the Tang Dynasty, indicating it to Ren ya.
In a few years, the Turks will rise from the governor's office of Dingxiang in a few years' time. In addition, the powerful Shiwei and Pei made the Tang Dynasty have to gradually narrow its territory because of the lack of soldiers and the simultaneous riots of both sides.
Now, Li Hong has moved all the horses in grassland, Shiwei, Pei and even Anxi, Tubo and Tuyuhun to the south according to the excess production capacity, so that these nomadic tribes, even if they have the intention to rebel, do not have enough horses to rebel.
In short, in Li Hong's opinion, even if the local herdsmen in anxidu, Anbei and antongdu are short of good horses to graze, they can't have other redundant ideas because of the surplus of good horses.
If it was not for the fact that war horses were not more tolerant than oxen in farming, Li Hong would hate to see that all the farmland was cultivated with good horses.
Therefore, a large number of advocating horse drawn carriages is also what Li Hong is going to do. Whether it is the Ministry of housing, the Ministry of labor and so on, it will no longer want to do anything as before, except relying on water.
”Well What if your majesty or queen asks? ” Pei Xingjian thinks it's not difficult to keep a secret. In the face of other people, with their qualifications, no one will make random inquiries.
What's more, in the face of other people, they can also be fully vigilant.
But In the face of the emperor and Queen's inquiry, what to do? Bullying?
”This Let me see. ” Li Hong tilted his head and looked at the ceiling of shangshuling's study. His fingers beat the table rhythmically. After thinking for a long time, he looked at the three people and asked, ”dare you bully me?”
“……。”
”Forget it. When I go to visit my father and his mother in the palace these two days, I tell them not to ask. I will let you deceive the monarch, but not make you rebel. What are you doing with a sad face! It's all right. Go down. ” One waved impatiently, and the three left in dismay.
In my heart, there is a voice in the three people's minds at the same time: the crime of bullying the king is as heavy as the crime of rebellion? What's the difference?
Whether it is the reform of the military department or the trend of the military department, after having a clear direction, it is not only Li Hong who is greatly relieved, but also Pei Xingjian, Liu Rengui and others, who are also greatly relieved. They also know which direction to work in. Instead of facing the coexistence of government soldiers and conscripts, they don't know what to do Deal with, like a headless fly like chaos hit.
Someone humming a little tune, accompanied by Huameng and Jingzhe, shakes and shakes to the east palace.
Although I am now in charge of the state, I am afraid that I will be in charge of the state until the day of the father's Zen throne. This is already in the court and among all the ministers. It is no secret.
But now, father and mother of the dragon have never planned to leave the Daming Palace and give it to themselves. They have even revealed, intentionally or unintentionally, that even if Li Hong becomes the emperor, I will not allow this Daming Palace, and you are not allowed to live in it for me. Even if I go to Luoyang palace for a year, you are not allowed to live in it.
Fortunately, Li Hong was very satisfied with everything in the East Palace, and the back palace of the East Palace, further back from the Li Zheng hall, had already built a palace dedicated to the residence of the prince and his wife. Therefore, for him, the functions of the east palace were enough for his own use, and even wealthy.
