"Your Highness's plan is indeed more mature." Changsun Wuji flattered him naturally.
"Dear princes, let's not talk to each other in business here. I think you are just giving me a chance to show off. I'm not as good as you in this regard." Li Ke said with a smile.
"At that time, the armies going to these two countries must go through reforms, and they must be strictly trained armies. I think it is better to let the original Chang'an Sixteenth Guards send two guards to go?" Changsun Wuji said.
"Yes, the Sixteenth Guards of Chang'an have the longest training time, the soldiers are the most elite, and they are exposed to the most new weapons and equipment. What was shown in the military parade on November 1 last year was amazing enough. They have trained for another year this year, let alone That’s a problem.” Li Ke nodded.
"But to implement this policy, the head coach candidate must be stable. Do you have any good candidates?" Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction and asked.
"Is it better for me to let the Duke of Wei, Li Jing, serve as the commander-in-chief and the Duke of Bao-Guo, Duan Xuanzhi, as the deputy commander-in-chief?" Wei Zheng paused and spoke first.
When he spoke, he glanced at Fang Xuanling calmly.
When Fang Xuanling saw the look in Wei Zheng's eyes and the person in his mouth, he immediately understood the candidate, and said decisively: "No, this time I lead the army on behalf of His Majesty, and Duke Wei has a foot problem. I heard that he has to go to the beach and other places with foot problems." Chronic moisture is not good.”
Fang Xuanling made an excuse at random, and then continued: "Since I represent His Majesty, and I also need to show the importance of the Tang Dynasty, and be prudent, I think it is better to let the King of Hejian County, General Li Xiaogong of Hejian County, as the commander-in-chief. The prince of Jian County belongs to the Tang Dynasty clan, which represents the importance of the Tang royal family. In addition, it is more appropriate to cooperate with Lu Guogong Cheng Yaojin as his deputy."
"Lu Guogong Cheng Yaojin has an inelegant nickname among the people, the devil incarnation. It refers to his unstinting character. Although Lu Guogong has a generous character, his vision is extremely accurate and his judgment of the current situation is more accurate. Sometimes you need this generous personality to deal with some things.”
Fang Xuanling's words also made everyone nod. This choice seemed to be better. Li Ke also nodded. Lao Fang is worthy of being a Fang Mou. He does have a way of choosing people. Li Xiaogong's ability is actually very outstanding. If not He was afraid that he would be superior to his master, and Li Xiaogong was no worse than Li Jing and others.
At this time, Changsun Wuji, who was standing next to him, said calmly: "In that case, I have a more suitable candidate, Minister of the Military Department, Li Daozong, the Prince of Jiangxia County and the Governor of Qinghai. Governor Li had executed His Highness the King of Qin in the Qinghai-Tibet Daodu. The policy of managing Tuyuhun herdsmen, including the pacification of the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions, and the victory of Xinjiang were particularly effective."
"He is obviously more experienced in managing this kind of low-level policy and how to grasp the hearts of the people at the bottom. And Governor Li is also a member of the Tang Dynasty clan, so he can also go with Lu Guogong. And now Governor Li happens to be in Chang'an, and the Western Region is temporarily controlled by Rong Guo If the generals are stationed there, there won’t be any other problems. The following generals, such as Niu Jinda and Li Daliang who followed Governor Li, are all good."
"The only problem is that Governor Li has too many positions."
Changsun Wuji added.
"This is not a problem. We just happened to capture Xinjiang and pacify the thirty-six countries in the Western Region, including capturing Qinghai and Tibet. Li Daozong also worked hard for many years. Taking this opportunity, Li Daozong was revoked from the position of Governor of Qinghai and Governor of Xinjiang. Su Dingfang was granted the title of Governor of Qinghai and Tibet. Qiao Shiwang was made the governor of Qinghai Prefecture, and An Xinggui was made the governor of Xinjiang Prefecture."
"Choose Li Daozong as Sikong and General Protector of the Country. It just so happens that his family can set up a residence in Chang'an and be given a Changlefang mansion in Chang'an City."
Li Shimin directly took up Changsun Wuji's words, "Let Li Daozong do the hard work this time and lead Niu Jinda, Li Daliang, Xue Wanjun, Xue Wanche, and prepare to go to Silla and Baekje along with Cheng Yaojin."
"Of course, this also depends on Goguryeo's next move, but let's just make all preparations for the time being. It just so happens that this long-distance journey is also a training."
"Your Majesty, your Majesty." Several people in Liangyi Hall immediately bowed and saluted at the same time. Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji were the fastest.
Li Ke didn't think anything of it. He hadn't thought Li Daozong was suitable before, and it was true that Li Daozong had too many positions.
Now that Li Shimin has revoked the positions of several governors of Li Daozong and directly dealt with the affairs of Silla and Baekje, there is no big problem.
Li Ke had never interfered in the employment of people. Wei Zheng and the others knew very well who the courtiers of the Tang Dynasty could do, and his father also knew very well. In fact, the people Wei Zheng and the three of them had just recommended were all suitable.
It can only be said that there are currently more capable ministers in the Tang Dynasty, which is a good thing.
"By the way, Qibi Heli, Zhisi Wuli, and Ashinadur can be considered as successful missionaries this time. They don't have many arrangements after they come back. As foreign generals, they represent our Datang." Regarding the attitude of the grassland peoples, I am going to give all three of them knighthoods this time, and in addition, they are the first batch of generals to study at your military academy, Li Ke."
"As the main generals of the Tang Dynasty, their knowledge is a little lower, and there is still a gap between them and Duke Wei. If you give them lessons, you know more about these aspects than me. As the various tribes in the grassland integrate into the Tang Dynasty, they are in the grassland His influence will also increase, and he may become a role model for all the famous tribes in the grassland in the future." Li Shimin added again.
"Yes, I leave this to my son." Li Ke didn't think much about it. This is indeed a good thing. Just like Ulan Fu, he just doesn't know whether the three of them have the ability to govern. They have no problem leading troops to fight. This The three men have already proven their ability to lead troops in war.
If they are able to govern, they can be allowed to go to Hanhai Prefecture and other places in the future. If they are not capable of governing, they can also be appointed as the commander of the Beihua Theater.
In addition, the Pacific Theater Commander and others can also select suitable candidates in the future.
"Qin Qiong." Li Shimin said again.
"I'm here." Qin Qiong's complexion is much better now. After replenishing his energy and blood, although it is impossible for his body to return to the strength of his youth, he will not die early at a young age.
During this period, Qin Qiong basically didn't get sick. She practiced some of Professor Sun Simiao's body-building exercises, and she looked much younger.
"Your security forces have a heavier task this time. The Tang Grain Reserve has begun collecting grain for the first time in the entire Tang Dynasty and has begun distributing subsidies to the people. You should pay more attention here to avoid riots."
"Yes!" Qin Qiong said with a calm expression.
"Well, as for public security, you should ask Li Ke for advice if you have nothing to do. Some of his methods are much more effective than simple threats of force." Li Shimin explained again.
"yes."
