Datang: Only by resisting the decree can we become stronger

"It's enough to find a job in Chang'an City. How can he be a general?"

Chapter 620 Goguryeo Invasion

Listening to Princess Pingyang's instructions, Li Qiu naturally agreed repeatedly.

He said that if Chai Zhewei really came to his side, he would definitely take good care of him.

Don't let him have any mistakes.

Empress Changsun was naturally very concerned about Li Qiu's expedition again.

Among her children, she owed the most to her first son.

Unexpectedly, now, this son is the only one doing the most dangerous thing.

But just as Li Shimin persuaded her, this is his son Li Shimin.

General door tiger!

He has the strength of character of his Li family!

That afternoon, Cheng Yaojin, who was in a good mood recently, ran over to Li Qiu for a drink.

Ever since he found a good in-law, Changsun Wuji, the more Cheng Yaojin thought about it, the happier he became.

Before, the Cheng family's most taboo thing, and the thing he was most worried about, was the grassroots background of the whole family.

No roots, no background.

Once Cheng Yaojin made a mistake, he would die forever.

Don't even think about it, the whole Cheng family will fall down in an instant.

Among his children, even Cheng Chumo can barely be considered a talent.

But after all, the ability is limited.

If Cheng Chumo wanted to make military contributions to him back then, Cheng Chumo would never be able to do it.

At most, he could just hang out with a fourth- and fifth-rank official in Chang'an City, and then inherit the bit of Fuyin and Lu Guogong's title left by him.

That's it.

But these are far from enough for the whole family.

That Du Ruhui is a vivid example right in front of him.

People take tea to cool off.

Now, only His Majesty and these few nostalgic people are left to support the Du family.

In the future, Du Gou, who is far superior to Cheng Chumo, Chai Zhewei, Qin Li and others, will have limited achievements.

It can't be compared with his father.

To change this situation, the most efficient and effective way is to get married.

Either his son married the princess and became a consort.

Either his daughter married a good family.

In the future, there will be a support.

Therefore, especially in recent years, Cheng Yaojin has paid more attention to planning in this area.

Originally, he really hoped that his daughter would marry Li Qiu.

First of all, Li Qiu is a kid who is pleasing to the eye, but he is too familiar with him on weekdays.

Secondly, it was also because of Luo Kexin's relationship.

This girl, known as a general, is much better than ordinary men in terms of ability and conduct.

With her taking care of her, her daughter will definitely not be left out in the cold.

But now it seems that, as Li Qiu said at the time, the best destination for his daughter is still the eldest grandson.

The foundation is too deep, and I am afraid that as long as the Tang Dynasty does not fall, it is impossible for the eldest grandson's line to fall.

(As it turns out, this idea was wrong...)

If her daughter is married, she will have face and peace of mind.

And also got on the line of the eldest grandson.

The eldest grandson Wuji became in-laws, and the relationship was brought closer.

In the future, even if he is in the court, Cheng Yaojin will have another reliance.

On the other hand, Li Qiu?

This kid is so capable of getting into trouble, he never knows when he will pierce the sky again.

If I become his father-in-law, why don't I follow behind him every day in fear?

As for him a hundred years later, it would be good for Li Qiu, a bastard, not to implicate his family in turn.

After being welcomed in by Li Qiu and others, Cheng Yaojin smiled and patted Li Qiu's back.

"Li Qiu, when do you plan to go to Youzhou?"

Li Qiu replied with a smile: "If I can get ready today, I plan to leave tomorrow."

"After all, this time Goguryeo soldiers came to attack."

"And my Youzhou City is empty of troops."

"On the grassland in the northwest of Youzhou City, there are hundreds of thousands of people in Youzhou."

"I'm worried, it's better to rush there earlier."

"Uncle, you must be careful and prudent when you go south to quell the chaos."

At this time, Cheng Yaojin waved his hands with a smile, "Those Liao people, can they still be regarded as strong enemies?"

"Give me more than ten thousand people, and I can kill them with my eyes closed."

"The only thing is that there are so many mountains in the south, and these Liao people are extremely cunning."

"It's time-consuming and labor-intensive to clean them up."

"As for the danger, it's nothing."

"Oh, when His Majesty asked me to be the governor of Youzhou."

"Niu Jinda and Qin Qiong are always urging me to take up the post."

"I told them at that time that His Majesty did nothing more than pretend."

"That Youzhou is so far away, and the road is bumpy."

"I'm not going to suffer this crime!"

"Now you see, I've hit the mark, right?!"

Afterwards, Li Qiu accompanied Cheng Yaojin and had a good drink.

Early the next morning, Li Qiu, who was fully revived, was under the eager eyes of Luo Kexin and Wu Sui.

He stepped on the red rabbit horse, led more than a dozen personal guards, and rushed to Youzhou.

A few days later, Li Qiu, who was running all the way, rushed to the Jizhou military factory first.

After hearing the news, Zhang Yungu, who happened to be working in Yizhou, hurried over and joined Li Qiu.

It also happened to report to Li Qiu on the current situation in Youzhou and other thirteen states.

This year, under the concerted efforts of Zhang Yungu, Song You and others.

The grain production in the thirteen prefectures of Youzhou is another bumper year.

The forge and several factories here have also been running efficiently and orderly.

As Li Qiu ordered before, tens of thousands of sets of modified armor and Mo Dao have been produced.

These armors and Mo Dao are enough for Tang Jun to dominate the world.

The only thing is that compared with the standard equipment of Youzhou Xuanjia Army, it is still inferior.

The reason for this is that it can not only guarantee the effect, but also efficiently mass-produce.

save time and energy.

The previous hardcover equipment was still too expensive and time-consuming.

This large-scale army assembly cannot be satisfied.

Later, Li Qiu ordered Zhang Yungu to communicate with the court.

Provide all the food, weapons, and equipment from Youzhou to the imperial court.

Of course, this time the court will not ask for these things in vain.

Li Shimin has already agreed to move all the nearly [-] volumes of books in Hongwen Library in the imperial city to Furong Academy.

It has become Li Qiu's personal collection.

Things like food, armor, and weapons can be bought with money in the future.

But like so many books left by the previous dynasty, they are all treasures.

There are times when money just can't buy you.

And more importantly.

When the Hongwen Library is emptied, all the precious books in it are brought to the Furong Garden.

It can be said that it has strangled the lifeline of many literati and great Confucians.

Because of this incident, I don't know how many people cried in the Tai Chi Hall, trying their best to persuade and oppose it.

How many people are so distressed that they can't sleep all night.

……

Just when Li Qiu just arrived in Jizhou.

The [-] troops of Goguryeo came to the grassland under the leadership of their general Huizhen.

The original Tie Le Department resident.

Today, 10,000+ Tang people have settled here.

After more than half a year of hard work, they have just built their houses one after another.

Cultivate your own farmland.

Near here, Yanyun City is also under construction in an orderly manner.

However, all the young and strong laborers have been sent to fight, and those who stay here are old people and women.

The construction speed is still slightly slower.

But the people here are not in a hurry.

After here, it is their home.

They must build the Yanyun City that can protect themselves to be extremely strong.

But at this moment, something unexpected happened to all of them.

An army of tens of thousands of people with strange armor, horses, and weapons, and banners that have never been seen before.

Killed here aggressively.

Chapter 621 Goguryeo, You Are Courting Death

Because the main defense targets of the Youzhou army and the people were Turkic tribes from the grasslands.

So the Tang people here built their houses and farmland in the southeast of Yanyun City, a new city.

They originally thought that their house and land were in the middle of Yanyun City and Youzhou City, so it must be foolproof.

Extremely safe.
