Purple Bamboo Court, a room on the second floor.
Lin Xuan did not even need to ask who it was. Just from the action of pushing the door, he knew who it was.
"Old Xuan, I'm here again."
Sure enough, Old Li walked in with a smile on his face. This time, Old Sun was also here.
"Sigh, I knew that no rich woman would come to flip my cards today.”
Immediately, Lin Xuan could not help but raise his head and sigh.
In response, Old Li and Old Li only smiled foolishly and then made tea themselves.
"This time, when you came to look for me, you..."
This made Lin Xuan laugh a little. He was about to ask. In any case, every time Old Li came, he would talk to him about endless things.
Clang!
This time, Old Li was smarter. He glanced at Old Sun, who took out a string of money.
"It's doubled."
Old Li smiled.
"Alright, you're rich. Ask away."
Lin Xuan did not know whether to laugh or cry. He did not stand on ceremony. After all, friends were friends, and the remuneration for asking questions could not be less.
"Didn't I visit my distant cousin two days ago?”
"I saw how worried he was, so I asked him. In the end, he said that everyone in the Imperial Court had a lot of objections to delaying the attack on the Turks.”
"From their tone, they seem to be preparing to submit a petition to His Majesty to redraft the proposal regarding the Turks.”
Li Er immediately said. This was the purpose of his visit. He had always felt like a fishbone in his throat to the Turks, and the incident at the Wei River was a great humiliation to the Great Tang.
As long as the Turks were not eliminated, Li Er would never be able to sleep and eat in peace.
"I expected this."
After Lin Xuan heard this, he shook his head. During the Wude years, the Turks invaded, and Tang Gaozu, Li Yuan, had to pay a large amount of property to make the Turks retreat and not invade.
When Li Er first ascended the throne, it was the time of power change and civil strife. The Turks seized the opportunity to lead the army to invade. In the end, they marched to the martial arts area of Chang 'an City and stationed on the bank of the Wei River. It seemed that they were going to destroy the capital.
Even though Li Er managed to resolve the issue and signed a friendly agreement with the White Horse Alliance, it was no less than a great humiliation to Li Er, the emperor.
Moreover, the northern barbarians were cruel and had always regarded the Han people as two-legged sheep. Wherever they passed, people would die and cities would be destroyed.
Now that the Turkic territory had suffered a sudden snowstorm and little Khan Tuli had come to ask for help, they would not let go of such a good opportunity.
If it wasn't for the drought on the east of the river, they would have deployed troops long ago.
"Oh, then according to Old Xuan, is there a way to solve it?”
When Li Er and Old Sun heard this, they were immediately a little surprised. This Old Xuan was really a god. He could even guess that they really did not want to give up this opportunity.
"It's still the same sentence. If we fight now, we'll lose.”
Lin Xuan shook his head. There was indeed no feasible method at the moment.
"Old Xuan, why do you say that? Our Great Tang's army is strong and powerful, and it's no longer the same as before!”
Old Sun did not dare to agree with this. After all, this was not the beginning of the founding of the country. After such a long period of development, the Great Tang had become very powerful in both national strength and military power.
Li Er also nodded. He was the emperor, and he was very confident in his civil and military officials.
"That's not true!"
Lin Xuan explained. If there was no drought in the east of the river, then the Great Tang's current military strength could indeed fight, and it would be unstoppable.
But the problem was that it was not the best time!
"Old Li, look!"
Then, Lin Xuan used tea as a brush and began to draw on the platform. Soon, he drew the Great Tang and the surrounding areas.
"Putting aside the fact that the mountains of the Turkic territory have been sealed off by snow, there must be some places in this vast region that have little influence, right?”
"If our Great Tang sends troops over, not only will they be unfamiliar with the terrain, but they will also have little experience in fighting in the snow. They will be easily led by the nose!”
"Let's assume that the Great Tang army has a smooth sailing journey and takes down the Turks regardless of the price they have to pay. What do you think Xue Yantuo in the north will think?”
"There's no need for me to explain the principle of the lips dying, let alone the hostile forces like Tugu Hun and Goguryeo.”
Lin Xuan pointed at the map drawn on the table and explained. If they attacked Xue Yantuo and the others, they would definitely not sit idly by. After all, once the Turks were destroyed, how could the Great Tang let them off?
At that time, what was originally a war between two countries would turn into a chaotic war between four sides. At that time, the Great Tang would not be facing a simple problem like the Turks!
As Lin Xuan finished speaking.
Li Er and Old Sun were already completely silent. Then, they could not help but wake up.
They had been immersed in the game of washing away their shame, but they had neglected the potential enemies outside.
If he was not reminded by Lin Xuan this time, once they sent troops, they would really face a chaotic battle. Moreover, it would be a long tug-of-war.
Although the Great Tang was developing well, many of them were just starting out and couldn't afford to spend too much time on them. At that time, let alone annihilating the Turks, the Great Tang's survival would be a huge problem!
For a moment, Li Er could not help but look deeply at Lin Xuan.
He worshiped him in his heart. This was no longer a matter of talent, but a great talent!
