What's more, the princess Pingyang is not a mother, just a sister. Pingyang Princess let go of her arms, no longer worried about this matter, and turned to talk about logistics with Xue Lang.
Since ancient times, fighting is a logistics. Especially in the age of cold weapons, no war can be fought without food and grass.
This is Xue Lang's supervisor. Of course he knows. Thanks to her good memory now, Princess Pingyang asked, Xue Lang could tell the figures immediately and clearly how much food and grass there were.
In fact, war is a huge activity, and there are too many things to be used in war. Especially in ancient times, from the decision to fight to the beginning of truth, the back often represented complicated preparations.
Fortunately, because of Xue Lang's arrival, the Tang Dynasty has been preparing since the beginning of the year to deal with the southward movement of Turks. However, anyone with insight knows that Liu heikai's recovery is only to help Turks fight in front of him. If Liu heikai can't do it, Turks will follow.
Princess Pingyang said, ”so Liu heikai must be pacified! Only when Liu heikai was completely pacified could the court spare its hands to deal with the Turks. The Turks are the real danger of the imperial court. ”
Xue Lang said: ”the trouble of the imperial court is inside, not outside.”
Princess Pingyang was surprised: ”You Yang, why do you say that?”
Xue Lang said: ”throughout the history, from ancient times to the present, there have been troubles of Hu people in the north. The Huns have caused disasters to the Qin and Han Dynasties. Now in the Tang Dynasty, it is the Turks. In the Central Plains, although there was a change of Dynasty, it was still the Han people, but outside the pass, Hu was changed into many nationalities. The so-called iron hit central plains, running water Hu people. ”
Princess Pingyang nodded: ”Youyang often has amazing words, but careful thinking is quite wonderful. You Yang, please continue. ”
Xue Lang arched his hands, and then said, ”the troubles of the Hu people are all due to the weakness of our central plains or the chaos in the world! If the monarchy of Central Plains is unified and the country is rich and powerful, which Hu people can fight against it? Therefore, it is only time to pacify Turks! The foundation of the Tang Dynasty was established at the beginning. There were bandits in it, and the national strength was still weak. That's why we regarded the Turks as the great enemy. In my opinion, we should despise it strategically, but attach importance to it tactically. ”
Pingyang Princess clapped her hands and exclaimed: ”it's really shocking to despise strategically and attach importance to a word tactically.”
Xue Lang, smiling and arched his hands, said honestly: ”this is what the florist, a great military strategist and the emperor, said. I think it is appropriate to use it here.”
Speaking of this, Xue Langton sorted out his thoughts and said: ”I have read many historical books since I was a child. I know that the Hu people are one of the major problems of the Central Plains imperial court. When the imperial court is strong, it is not afraid to beat the Hu people. When the court is weak and the central plains are in chaos, the Hu people are rampant. So when I passed by Turks, I stayed for a while
Princess Pingyang immediately asked, ”so you know something about Turks?”
At that time, there was only a few thousand years of Turkic rule between the north and the south, but in fact, there was only a few thousand years of Turkic rule between the north and the south. Until Well, it was probably during the kaihuang period of the former Sui Dynasty that the Turkic Khanate split into East and West Turks, and fought against each other for more than 20 years. ”
