Chapter 235: The debate is over

Facing Zhai Yan's question, Tang Li pondered for a moment and said, "This battle will definitely win, but I don't know when it will end?"

"What, you don't know?" Zhai Yan changed his expression when he heard this: "This battle to combat rebellion is the central dispatch of your political affairs hall. Don't worry, don't worry, and you still have no idea?"

"What'Our Political Affairs Hall"!" Tang Li Qianqian took a sip of wine and said, "Old Zhai, you forgot that I am just a counselor and I can't be considered a person in the Political Affairs Hall."

"There are rumors in the market that you are saying that you should be the minister. Is this fake?"

"Your Majesty has this intention, but I quit it!" This sentence made everyone stunned. Tang Li smiled faintly and said, "So I am still a Hanlin Grand Secretary. The only difference is that I will add a Hanlin Attendant. The affairs of the Political Affairs Hall are still presided over by Chen Xiang and Yang Xiang!"

Zhai Yan's face was full of incredible and regretful expressions, "Try it?" In fact, it was not only him, but also Li Tengjiao couldn't help but stretch out his hand and pinched Tang Li's arm.

"I'm quitting!" With a gentle sigh, Tang Li looked at Li Mi who was sitting on the side with a smile.

Meeting this gaze, Li Mi pondered for a moment, then knocked on the desk and sighed: "Good resignation! The scholar's sincere heart for the court without considering personal honor and disgrace is really admirable!" After sighing, Li Mi actually stood up and bowed to Tang Li.

"Changyuan, what nonsense are you talking about? When the court is in a difficult situation, it is time for nothing to do. He is now resigning from the pretext! Chen Xilie is an old man who is indifferent. Yang Guojiu is a gangster and is looking forward to them to quell the rebellion?" A sneer in his mouth was unconcealed. Zhai Yan looked at Tang Li and said: "Ali, now is the time to talk about the style of an ancient gentleman, whether for Your Majesty. You should be 'rely willing' for the court'!"

After Zhai Yan finished speaking, Li Mi looked at Tang Li who had no intention to explain, and smiled and said indirectly: "Dong Nan, don't worry, this time I resigned to the prime minister for the court!"

"oh?".

"Now, the new emperor in the Tang Dynasty has just ascended the throne, and the Fanyang rebels are rampant outside. At this time, in order to consolidate the inside and pacify the outside, the court will be in chaos at all. Otherwise, not only will the rebellion be suppressed, but even Chang'an will inevitably have a resurgence. The Tang scholar's resignation of the prime minister is a clear understanding of the situation, and he exchanges his own position for peace in the court."

After listening to Li Mi's words, Tang Li didn't know if it was possible, so he smiled and said, "Changyuan doesn't have to be polite, just tell me not to be in love!"

"Changyuan, are you talking about Yang Guozhong?" Zhai Yan, who frowned slightly, said with hesitation: "He has a great personal friendship with others, and he is also a hero in the quelling of the rebellion and supporting the new king. It shouldn't be..."

Hearing the four words "Put the Rebellion", Li Mi couldn't help but look gloomy, but after only a moment he returned to his true colors and smiled and said, "For power struggle, even brothers can meet each other with their own hands, let alone personal friendship? Yang Guozhong is a man from a market. He is a brave and fierce nature at heart. Since he entered the Ministry of Revenue, he has rejected dissidents. After becoming prime minister, he has formed a lot of gangs. In order to fight with Xiao Li, he did not hesitate to abdicate Wang Hong's brother to rebel and collude with his brother. Not to mention these in the court, Jiannan has now become the world of the Yang family. Even if he is a small place in this place, he cannot take office as an eighth-rank county magistrate. This person has taken over power to such a point. Gongnan thought he would do humble and courteous things for personal friendship?"

Speaking of this in one breath, Li Mi raised his jar and took a sip, and then said, "As for both being the heroes of supporting the new king, this is the reason for the resignation this time. They both supported the new king, but Yang Guozhong's contribution was far less than that of the other. In addition, the new emperor was a disciple of the old love. Once the other love became a prime minister, the new emperor relied on him far beyond Yang Guozhong's comparison. In this way, the court would be trapped in the chaos of the Tang and Yang struggles. The two of them fought each other, not to mention the officials of the six imperial towns, even the local military towns could not defend themselves. How could such internal struggles start with the word "quelling rebellion?"

These words only made Zhai Yan say nothing, "Party struggle is another party struggle!" After sighing, he saw that he had already drunk all the wine.

"Just now, in terms of the smallest things, even if you have the intention to fight with Yang Guozhong, your chances of winning are less than 55." As smart as Li Mi, he naturally knew that Tang Li's current silence is very meaningful to test his talent. Although he was wearing Taoist clothes, he actually had the ambition of "everyday ambition is a good plan". At this time, he did not hide it and said, "Although Yang Guozhong came to Beijing for a short time, he has been in the foreign relatives since he became the prime minister. Concubine Yang was favored by the former emperor for more than ten years. The Yang family lineage was highly valued in the world. If he had the intention but did not accept it, or if the officials came to surrender automatically, he would accumulate ten years of hard work.

The momentum has penetrated into the foundation of the Tang Dynasty. How can this force be underestimated? Not to mention the deliberate expansion of Yang Guozhong since he was prime minister for more than a year. The court is like this. When it comes to local military towns, it is when Mr. Li was in Japan. Jiannan, one of the three major military towns of this dynasty, has become the world of the Yang family. After more than a year, Yang Guozhong has deliberately arranged it and said that if there is any change, Jiannan today must know the Yang family but not the emperor. In the past year, Yang Guozhong was in charge of the Ministry of Revenue, and the allocation of money and grain in the local military town was completely eliminated. With his means and power, how can he protect the remaining towns in Jiangnan without a support?"

"On the other hand, although his talent is high, he is from a poor family and has no hope of success. Everything depends on his own achievements. This is a natural deficiency compared to Yang Guozhong! Then, in order to avoid being harmed, he went far away from the two rivers when his husband was infected with the disease. Although this move prevented the love from falling into the same fate as his husband Li Xiao Li, it also made the love gap with the Li party. Therefore, although today's love is brilliant, it is not in power in the court!" Those servants who served were long ago at the beginning of political affairs.

, Zheng Lianqing waved his hand to condemn him. As Li Mi spoke more and more, the flower hall was already full of needles. "This is true in the court. As for the place, although the Hedong road is held by a road, this road has weak force, and it is a place of great war at this time, and it cannot be relied on. As for Longxi Geshu, although he has benefited from many loves, if the love and Yang Guozhong really tear apart their faces and fight, can he bet his clan life like Jiannan supports the Yang family?". Looking at Tang Li, Li Mi shook his head gently.

His words and his head-shaking action made the atmosphere in the flower hall suddenly solemn. After a while, Tang Li laughed and said, "Changyuan is really wandering in the world and has a Wei Que heart! But I am a casual person who admires the pastoral world. Have you ever thought about fighting for power with Yang Xiang? As long as the treacherous chaos can be quelled and the Tang Dynasty will revive. What's the harm in whether to be a prime minister?"

"Since that's the case, why should I recommend Chen Xiang to stay with me?" Li Mi looked at Tang Li with bright eyes and said, "Since that's the case, why don't I even resign from the Hanlin Attendant?"

At this point, Tang Li had no doubt about Li Mi's talent, but he still said: "It is true that Mr. Chen stayed at his post as my sponsor, but now there are many people in the imperial city and are restless. This move is to stabilize the overall situation of the court. As for the Hanlin Attendant, what is worthy of?"

"With the position of Hanlin Attendant, I will be with Your Majesty every day. As the person who is a lover of love, I am not different from the "internal minister". Although I have resigned from the name of my husband today, I have actually become the real master. Don't fight?" At this point, Li Mi shook his head as before. Perhaps because he felt that he made the atmosphere in the flower hall too gloomy, Li Mi smiled slightly and said, "However, it is really a wise move to say goodbye to my husband today. Not to mention the other country, is there anyone who can become a prime minister in more than 300 years of the Wei, Jin and Six Dynasties? "

"What's wrong with being prime minister at the age of eighteen?", the conversation was Zhai Yan. "Ganluo was only twelve years old when he was prime minister in the Han Dynasty!"

Regarding Zhai Yan's words of indulgence, Li Mi smiled faintly and said, "It's true that he is the prime minister at the age of twelve, but Gan Luo died after more than a year. It's better not to do such a prime minister!"

Seeing Zhai Yan's words suffocating, Tang Liyin smiled and said, "Today's rare joy, we can't let these things ruin the atmosphere. Come on, let's drink together."

At this moment, the atmosphere in the flower hall could no longer return to the casual and lively at the beginning, and there were only a few drinks of drinks. Huaisu and Zhai Yan stood up and said goodbye. He personally sent the two to the gate of the second courtyard. When Zhai Yan was about to leave the moon gate, he stopped again and hesitated for a moment: "Don't love, although Li Mi was wearing Taoist costumes, he had no Taoist intentions and showed himself too much... I don't understand the affairs of the government and the monks, and I don't want to understand them. In short, you can do it yourself!"

"Old Zhai, you and the monk don't need to worry." Under the hazy moonlight, Tang Li randomly patted the arms of the two and said, "Anyway, I will always be me, you can rest assured about this!"

"It's good, it's good!", murmured, the two of them walked away together.

"Jiao'er, you are tired today, just go back to rest earlier. I'll go to the study and talk to Changyuan." With his eyes, he calmed the girls who were a little uneasy with his expression. Tang Li turned around and said to Li Mi: "Sir, please!"

The lamp was not burned in the study room. Hazelnuts were responsible for managing the study room. They must have gone to bed long ago. Tang Li did not ask anyone. After lit the candlestick and sat down with Li Mi, he said bluntly: "What are the advantages of sir to pacify Fan Yang this time?"

"What I said just now is true. The chaos in Fanyang started. Although the troops were like fire in the early stage, it was difficult to last forever. First, the elite rebels who followed An Lushan were mostly Khitan and other alien races. There were very few Tang people. This shows that people's hearts were in the Tang Dynasty and had this foundation. Even if An thieves could rage for a while, if they wanted to resist the world with one force, they would eventually be defeated. Second, since the war broke out, An thieves ravaged Sanhe, but seeing that all the money and property they plundered were sent to Fanyang's old nest, it was only this that it could be seen that An thieves really had no intention of unifying the world." The two of them met, and Li Mi lost his scruples and said with a burning look: "Now, Shuhan, the Longxi Ge, led the army of the three towns to lead them but did not, Shi Siming and Zhang Zhongzhi did not dare to leave Fanyang; Jinyang, Jinyang, Jin

Before the prefecture was broken, and Li Guangbi led his troops to harass the enemy's logistics supplies, An Shouzhong, and Tian Qianzhen did not dare to leave Hedong. Ashin Chengqing defeated Henan, he now wanted to fight and retreat. In this way, the court had already banned five generals from three places. With An Lushan's brigade alone, it was not enough to attack Tongguan. It was not willing to retreat to the two rivers. It was actually a dilemma. Since the beginning of Fanyang chaos, although An Lushan has expanded thousands of miles of territory, his troops have been in a dilemma, and his strategic advantages have been lost. Now the north is cold and it is difficult to use large-scale troops. By the time the weather warms up next March, there will be no large-scale war. As for the battle to combat the rebellion next year, there will be two ways to speed and slow. I don't know how to choose?"

"How fast? So how slow?".

"In March next spring, although the northern part of our Tang Dynasty has been warm and ice, the Tubo Plateau is bitter and cold, and people are tired and thin, and it is difficult to use troops. With this time difference, the Longxi military strength will be spared. If you want to be quick, you will be ordered to lead three armies to advance eastward in March next spring, and the army stationed in Tongguan and Jiangnan Zhenjun went north together. The two armies fought with An Lushan in Lianghe. In this way, the court could twice as strong as the enemy, and Fan Yang was also a tired army. In addition, there were Jinyang, Jinzhou and Li Guangbi's brigade alone to borrow power, and the logistics and supplies were ten times as good as the enemy. In this way, the court was not invincible. But..."

"However? Changyuan is fine."

"However, this battle also has its own problems. Not to mention the specific war, Fan Yang's elite troops are in the world. Although the chance of winning a quick battle is great, it is impossible to annihilate An Lushan in Hedong. Once his remaining troops flee north to Fanyang, this battle to suppress the rebellion will be protracted and endless troubles!"

It is not difficult to understand Li Mi's words about Tang Li. Fan Yang was the old nest of An Lushan who had been operating for more than ten years. The area separated from this wall was Xi, Khitan and other tribes. If An Lushan fled back here, as long as he had a breather, his troops could be quickly replenished. If the court went north to Fanyang to quell the rebellion, the result would be difficult to predict. If things came to this point. History returned to its original track. In the original history, it was because the court failed to eliminate all evil, which caused the remnants of Fan Yang to flee. Although they were unable to enter the Central Plains again, the court was unable to suppress it. In the end, they could only "condonate" the situation and lead to separatist situations of vassal states. If there was a car before, how could Tang Li go the same mistake? "So what about slow war?"

"Slow battles are about seeking stability! To put it specifically, it is just the word "wait"!".

"Wait? What are you waiting for?".

"Wait until Hebei chaos starts!" An Lushan raised his troops one day. Hebei was in a hurry and fell in the wind. This is absolutely not normal. Now that Fan Yang's army is trapped, I expect that there will be abnormal movements in all Hebei provinces next year!" When he was excited, Li Mi stood up unconsciously. The light flashed in his eyes, he stared at Tang Li's eyes and said, "If you don't expect it, don't worry, you can go to my eyes!"

After gritting his teeth and saying this, Li Mi was excited, without waiting for Tang Li to answer, and walked around the room with his hands. He said as he walked: "After the chaos broke out, Geshu immediately went north to Hebei, completely cut off the connection between the rebels and Fan Yang's old nest, and then pressed from north to south to Hedong. The army of Jiangnan in Tongguan also headed north at the same time to form a two-sided encirclement. If this situation can be achieved, An Lushan has become a fish in the net, and his army will be damaged without any replenishment, and food, grass and supplies will be even more difficult to supply. Even if the fight between trapped beasts can show off for a while, it will inevitably lead to a complete defeat. After the overall situation in Hedong is settled, it will be just a matter of raising hands. At this point, the court's battle to suppress the rebellion can be said to be completed!"

Looking at Li Mi who was in high spirits in front of him, Tang Li couldn't help but praise the words "There is no underestimation in his name". Hebei Dao would only know the turmoil in his own way based on the classics of later generations. However, the Taoist priest could see the clues at a glance, and what was even more eye-catching was the overall view of this person. After all, the general trend at this time was still An Lushan, and he knew the small things. This was easy to say, but there were only ones who could do it in history.

Although what Li Mi said is no different from what Tang Li thought, one relies on history and the other rely on what he learned to judge and plan. This difference is not small, and Li Mi's strategic analysis also makes Tang Li no longer doubt his talents.

"Sir, please say it!" After getting up and stroking his hands to praise, Tang Li suddenly changed the topic with a smile: "Sir, do you really think it is inevitable that I will fight with Yang Xiang?"

Although Tang Li changed the topic quickly, Li Mi seemed to be not surprised that he would ask this question. He smiled slightly and turned around and said with a straight face: "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop! To this day, as long as he is still in power, even if he has left his heart and resigned from his official position, it will be difficult to make Yang Xiang feel at ease!"

With a faint sigh, Tang Li murmured: "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop!"

"In fact, no love is just a shortage of land now!", ignoring Tang Li's feelings, Li Mi's voice came faintly: "Now the imperial city is noisy. As long as you have the heart, with the status of the current status of the former love, and with the old love of Mrs. Li, those Li Party who are in amazement and indifference will definitely flock to the door; as for the officials of the same family as the second wife, there is no need to mention it, this is the court; the battle to suppress the rebellion cannot be ended day and night, and the times are coming, how can you know what Ge Shuhan will be going to in the future? Besides, there may not be only one Ge Shuhan in the court's commander." At this point, Li Mi smiled slightly again: "I am frank, no love is now in a treasure mountain and I don't know it. I have delayed the good time to integrate the power. After Yang Xiang vacated his hands to start dealing with the Li Party, these people may change their families, die or be demoted, so it is too late to regret it!"

Things in the world are like chess, and they have come to this day step by step, which really makes Tang Li feel unspeakable. Just as his thoughts are flying, Li Mi heard a faint voice coming from behind him: "I can't repay you for your kindness to help you! For these trivial matters, although I am not talented, I am willing to follow my predecessor Mao Sui and do my own recommendation..."
