Journey to the West: At the beginning, Li Er was mistaken for his father

"From today onwards, you two are my disciples, and I will check on your cultivation progress when the army is deployed.

If the progress is satisfactory, I will seal the two of you as pioneers..."

Li Xiudao moved his eyes from Chen Xiang to Xue Rengui, looked at the two who were equally excited, and said in a deep voice.

"Although Rengui is older, Chen Xiang joined my sect earlier, so you need to call him Senior Brother."

"Disciple saves!"

Being accepted as an apprentice by Li Xiudao, Xue Rengui was already satisfied, how could he dare to have any dissatisfaction, nodded repeatedly, moved to Chen Xiang's side, and clasped his hands together.

"Brother Chen Xiang, please accept Xue Li's respect!"

But in his heart, there are other considerations.

"This Chen Xiang is young, what qualifications does he have to be the first disciple of the master who opened the mountain gate, seeing that he and the eight fairies seem to know each other, presumably His Royal Highness King Dingyuan couldn't shirk favors and accepted it as a last resort.

Although you entered the school earlier than me, I will not let you practice..."

As Xue Rengui thought in his heart, he unconsciously reflected on his breath.

The White Tiger Seven Kills originally advocated fighting and fighting, and honed the Taoist mind in the fight.

It is different from other Taoist ways of self-cultivation behind closed doors.

Xue Rengui's youthful spirit, on the contrary, just met the requirements of this Taoism, and the whole body's energy became more and more concise.

The people present all have good eyesight, how can Xue Rengui's thoughts be hidden from them, but seeing Xue Rengui like this at this time, they can't help but secretly nod.

There is no definite number for the cultivation of Dao Xin, and the most important thing is innocence.

The real one, the real one.

The heavenly one is natural.

It doesn't necessarily mean that it is better to be humble and courteous, as calm as a mountain.

Feiyang jumps away, showing his sharpness may not necessarily lose to it.

If Xue Rengui can maintain this courageous and diligent heart, maybe within five or sixty years, there will be hope of proving the primordial spirit.

They can take it lightly, but Chen Xiang is only a thirteen or fourteen year old boy, how could he have experienced such battles.

Seeing that Xue Rengui, who was a few years older than him, was so respectful to him, his face turned red with embarrassment, and he waved repeatedly.

"Brother Xue, what are you talking about, everyone is Master's disciple..."

Let Chen Xiang and Xue Rengui exchange feelings there, Li Xiudao chuckled, and wanted to continue what was interrupted just now to deduce the source of the strangeness in his heart.

Guess what.

For some reason, things keep interrupting me today.

Li Xiudao had just collected a few wisps of energy and put them into the Yinshen when he was interrupted again.

"Your Highness..."

Looking at Fang Xuanling who couldn't hide his anxiety, Li Xiudao sighed slightly and had to stop his mana again.

Fang Xuanling has been in charge of all the officials in the court for many years, and has seen himself displaying supernatural powers with his own eyes.

Since the matter forced him to alarm himself, it must not be a trivial matter.

"It's someone from Silla."

Sure enough, Fang Xuanling carefully handed over a document, using the simplest sentence to give the matter a head start.

For the rest, needless to say, he believed that Li Xiudao would naturally understand.

"Ok?"

Li Xiudao raised his eyebrows lightly, took the document from Fang Xuanling's hand, and quickly scanned it.

Li Er bestowed the word "Dingyuan" on him, appointed him Tiance General, and allowed him to open the mansion by himself.

In order to gain is to expand the frontiers and use troops, so that the sun and the moon shine on it, and it is the land of the Tang Dynasty.

Although Li Xiudao mainly focused his energy on cultivation, he still paid a lot of attention to military affairs.

simplest……

The wider the territory of the Tang Dynasty, the denser the population, the stronger the national power, and the stronger the spirit.

Li Xiudao, who is connected with the luck of the Tang Dynasty, will naturally get corresponding benefits, which is no worse than a realm breakthrough.

If the Great Tang is strong enough to completely unify the human race and pinch it together, the Buddhism and Taoism will no longer be able to treat the human race like ants.

In this process, the human nature is in the system, and it is not known how many rewards will be issued.

Practitioners have eyes, ears and memory a hundred times better than ordinary people. In addition, Li Xiudao has more insights from thousands of years later. Although he has never really led troops into battle, his vision is also very different.

Li Er's plan is very clear, first east and then north.

Conquer Goguryeo first and complete the unfinished work of Emperor Sui Yang.

Since the founding of the Great Tang Dynasty, it has been considered by many people to have inherited the legacy of the Great Sui Dynasty.

To reverse this perception.

The simplest thing is to achieve the goal that Da Sui did not achieve.

And now...

The timing is perfect.

Although Emperor Sui Yang's three expeditions to Goguryeo failed, it was inevitable that Goguryeo was seriously injured, and a generation of young and strong suffered countless deaths and injuries.

In less than 30 years, it is simply not enough to fully restore the past.

And Goguryeo is not without other opponents, and it has also developed during this period of time.

A small frontier.

Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla face each other across the river.

Among the Three Kingdoms, Goguryeo was originally the most powerful, and the Baekje army once dominated it for a while. Silla, which pursues the bone product system, is the most rigid, and its internal struggles are also the most intense, with serious wear and tear.

But in recent years, Silla took advantage of Goguryeo's declining momentum and started to gain momentum.

Baekje is actually weaker than before.

At present, the three countries are in a roughly balanced situation, and no country has an obvious advantage over the other two countries.

But correspondingly, if one party gets help from outside, it will really have the possibility of dominating the three thousand miles of beautiful rivers and mountains.

Datang has precisely this strength and reason.

It has always been the only method in military and political affairs to make close friends from afar.

Among the Three Kingdoms, Silla is the farthest away, and they intend to make friends and pay a visit to Datang.

With almost no effort, the two parties have reached the initial cooperation intention.

The key lies in the following, specific conditions.

"Father Cheap, I'm afraid I'm going to lose this time..."

Li Xiudao secretly thought about it.

The Great Tang has millions of troops, even if it is impossible to pour out all of them, it is only one out of ten, and it is not something that small countries such as Silla, Baekje, and Goguryeo can compete with.

It is clear.

Compared with the national power of Datang, Silla undoubtedly needs help more.

It seems that Datang has an active advantage. If Silla wants to get help from Datang, it must pay a big price and make a big promise.

But Li Xiudao knew in his heart that things were never as simple as they seemed.

You must know that the place where the Three Kingdoms are located is a real frontier of bitter cold.

It is even worse than Yandi, even if it is surrounded by the sea on three sides.

Moreover, there are many mountains and few lands, and it is impossible to support a large number of people.

Even though the weather has gradually become warmer and humid in the past few decades and 100 years, so that Goguryeo can grow into a serious problem for the Sui and Tang dynasties, but it is still the same.

Chang'an is thousands of miles away from here, and it is far away from the real emperor.

Another alien.

It is absolutely impossible for Datang to establish effective rule here for a long time.

Otherwise, the consumption of national power will greatly exceed the growth of the national fortune.
