I am Li Shen and Li Shimin, the free kings of the Tang Dynasty

After hearing Li Shimin's voice, Li Shen knew that he couldn't leave.

"Hey, I've seen Aye, I've seen all the gentlemen," Li Shen chuckled after coming in.

"You came just in time, let's listen together." Li Shimin said to Li Shen

"Aye, you are discussing state affairs with the princes. I don't understand anything, so I won't get involved." Li Shen knew his ink.

"I didn't let you participate. I was just listening. This matter has something to do with you."

"Oh" Li Shen agreed. Is there anything else that has to do with him?

"Your Majesty, since Xue Yantuo sent troops to Silla, I guess that Goguryeo must have promised benefits. Otherwise Xue Yantuo would never help Goguryeo for no reason.

In my opinion, it would be better for your majesty to order Xue Yantuo to withdraw his troops and severely reprimand him. "At this time, Fang Xuanling continued.

"Your Majesty, I think it may not be useful. Xue Yantuo has always been in awe of the Tang Dynasty in the past few years. He pays tribute every year and is obedient.

But in the past two years, they have developed a disloyal attitude. Their attitude can be seen from the time they captured General Qibi Heli.

In the past few years, they have been gradually encroaching on the territory of the Eastern and Western Turks to recuperate and recuperate. They are just a group of immature wolves. They will bite us if they have the opportunity, but we still have to find opportunities to destroy them. " Changsun Wuji analyzed

When Li Shimin heard Changsun Wuji's words, he nodded in agreement and said

"Destroying Xue Yantuo requires a long-term plan. Now that Xue Yantuo is participating in the attack on Silla, Silla may not be able to resist for long."

"What? Xue Yantuo participated in the attack on Silla?" Li Shen didn't listen much at first, and was winking at Li Chengqian.

But after hearing Li Shimin's words, he realized that Xue Yantuo did not send troops to Silla in history.

Could it be that his own idea changed the course of history?

"Exactly, Your Highness King Ji, originally based on your plan, now they are three pillars, consuming each other, and they will be able to bring down the three countries in a few years. But just five hundred miles ago, Xue Yantuo mobilized an army of [-] to go to Goguryeo.

We guess it was to help Goguryeo attack Silla. Goguryeo had had contacts with Xue Yantuo in the past. "Fang Xuanling explained Li Shen's doubts.

"See you, [-] troops? Aren't they afraid that our Tang Dynasty will march straight in and take their tents? Besides, most of them are cavalry and are not good at attacking cities and territories."

Two years ago, Xue Yantuo provoked the Tang Dynasty and asked Li Ji's 6000 troops to defeat Xue Yantuo's 20 army and capture [-] soldiers.

Xue Yantuo's current strength is only 10,000+, and he sent out [-] at once. Their khan is really brave.

"The Yunzhong Protectorate came to report that Xue Yantuo had retreated hundreds of miles behind his tent."

"Your Highness Prince Ji, I wonder what you have to say?" Fang Xuanling asked, looking at Li Shen with a smile.

"I don't have any great ideas." This old lamp still wants to trick me, but there is no way.

"Your Majesty, for the current plan, we must either send troops to Silla or send troops to scare Xue Yantuo." Li Ji expressed his opinion.

"No, it's a long way to Xueyantuo. Winter is about to enter. Don't take any risks." Changsun Wuji retorted.

“I’m afraid Silla won’t be able to sustain it until next year.”

Everyone began to discuss, and even Li Chengqian also expressed his own remarks.

Li Shen yawned and listened boredly,

"Li Shen, tell me what you think?"

Seeing Li Shen act like this, Li Shimin was not angry at all. Everyone is discussing here, but you are still tired of listening there.

"Aye, I don't have any opinion. It all depends on Aye and the princes."

"Bastard, I ask you to talk, just say it, there is no such nonsense. How can you perfunctory matters in the court?"

Li Shen saw that Li Shimin was angry and began to think about it.

Xue Yantuo will definitely not be able to make the first move. It will be winter soon. During this period, there is generally no fighting in winter. It is too cold and there is no way to keep warm.

Support Silla by sea and land? It's still not worth it to help fight the war.

Li Shen was not from a military academy, so he had no military talent. The only thing Li Shen knew was economics.

After thinking about it, I finally said this:

"How about we rebel, Aye?"

As soon as Li Shen said this, he immediately felt like a light on his back. Everyone looked at him, even Li Shimin looked at him solemnly.

"Why are you looking at me like this?" Li Shen looked around and asked in confusion.

"Tenth brother, did you just say you wanted to rebel?" Li Chengqian reminded.

"So what? It's not like I'm rebelling against the Tang Dynasty. You don't think I'm pulling Aye into rebellion, right? Then who am I rebelling against?" Li Shen looked at these ministers as if they were fools.

When everyone heard it, it seemed that it really made sense. They were just frightened by the words "rebellion" and did not react for a while.

Li Shimin's face also returned to calmness. Indeed, Li Shen had just asked him to join in the rebellion. So against whom? Against himself, unless crazy.

"Then tell me how to rebel?" Li Shimin asked

"Aye, didn't we send people back to Goguryeo? Have we contacted the Treasure King?" Li Shen asked.

"Your Highness, Chen Dade did return to Goguryeo, but he sent someone to send back the news. Although he has been in contact with the Treasure King in the past few months.

But now the Treasure King is weak, and not many people are willing to fight against Mo Li Zhiyuan Gaisu Wen. Fang Xuanling replied

"That's it." Li Shen touched his chin again and started thinking,

"By the way, the former Sui Dynasty attacked Goguryeo three times. There should be many former Sui soldiers left behind. Let Chen Dade send troops to find these people. I guess it won't be a problem to form a team of ten thousand people.

When the time comes, support the Treasure King, occupy a few small cities first, gather the sergeants following him, and let Chen Dade seduce the Treasure King, telling him to dig deep holes, accumulate food widely, and slowly become king.

Let the treasure king plunder food, preferably food from local people.

By then the people will not have enough to eat, and there will be many uprisings in the country. Even if they don’t have it, we must let them have it. "

"Your Highness, your method is good, but it takes time. It takes time to find the former Sui's old troops, and it takes time to capture the city." Li Ji still knows a lot about military matters.

"Let Chen Dade collect as much grain as he wants from every city in Goguryeo at five times the market price.

After the plan started, in the name of the Tang Dynasty, nobles from all over Goguryeo were told that the next batch of food would arrive in half a month.

And the price is slightly lower than the market price, and the quantity is huge. Just say that because the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty celebrated his birthday, everyone celebrated it. "

"Didn't we lose money, Your Highness? Goguryeo would have taken advantage of us." Cheng Yaojin asked at this time.

“I didn’t say we would actually transport it there. Otherwise, how could they sell food to us?

They have been fighting for so long, and our food strategy has accounted for [-]% of their food share in the past few years, so their food is definitely not enough.

We took away all the food from their people and made them think that there would be a lot of food in half a month, so they would sell it. "

"But Your Majesty, their new food will be harvested in more than a month. Even if they are hungry for a month, won't they have food by then?" Fang Xuanling reminded,

"Fang Gong, I estimate that they can only grow [-]% of their grain this year, and we can account for [-]% of their share.

The remaining [-]% is because I gave them a lot of soybean planting and told them that I would recycle it at a high price. "Li Shen smiled and said

"Is there still this?"

"It turns out that King Ji has already prepared."

"King Ji is really strategizing."

Everyone praised Li Shen after hearing what he said, which made Li Shen blush. If he told them that it was because of Tubo soybeans, he would be in trouble.

I just changed it to those three countries, will they laugh at me?
