    The pipa girl in the palace gently plucked the strings on one side, and the pipa made a leisurely sound. The sound was not loud, and the melody was not yet complete, but it could already make people hear the unique charm.  Li Jing, wearing a purple robe and a goldfish belt around his waist, strode into the palace with the chamberlain. The clanking and jingling sounds of the jade ornaments on the nine-section gold belt given by the emperor complemented the pipa music.  As a top pipa master, this melody of Spring River Flowers and Night Moon is very beautiful. It¡¯s a blessing to listen to it together.¡± The pipa girl¡¯s performance did not stop. When Li Jing arrived at the palace, he knelt down and bowed to the emperor first. Yi Feng gave in.  The waiter gave him a seat.  "This is not above the court. You and I are facing each other in private, so there is no need to be so courteous. You are the God of War of the Sui Dynasty, the idol in the hearts of the young soldiers." Yi Feng said with a smile while looking at Li Jing, "Duke Wei,  "You seem to have lost a lot of weight, your face is a little pale, and you have a big beard." "I have been very busy recently, and I have so many things to do that I can't even think about improving my appearance. It is really disrespectful to come to see His Majesty like this. I hope you will forgive me."  "Crime." Li Jing was only in his thirties, but his great achievements in the Northern Expedition, especially his unparalleled achievements in the Battle of Liaodong, made him a famous figure at the age of just over thirty.  He became the third hereditary duke of the dynasty. Especially because of the emperor's praise for the god of war, he became the god of war in the Sui Dynasty and became the most admired person in the hearts of the younger generation of soldiers.  Although he was finally promoted from the position of Deputy Privy Councilor because of his disobedience on the Liaodong battlefield, and entered the Ministry of War as an idle minister of the Ministry of War, he was appointed by the emperor to serve as the Mangshan Royal Military Academy.  As the vice-principal, he became a very special existence in the Sui Dynasty.  "How is the military academy now? Is it on the right track?" Yi Fengxiao asked.  "With His Majesty's strong support, the college is running well. Although it was a bit chaotic at the beginning, it is finally on the right track. The first batch of newly recruited students after the opening of the college totaled six subjects: infantry, riding, vehicle, engineering, and artillery.  , baggage, a total of 1,200 students in 12 classes. According to His Majesty's wishes, the students will be in a two-year system, with three semesters each year, each semester has 100 days, and the students will be recruited in spring and autumn of the year.  The training courses for basic non-commissioned officers and officers at all levels are basically one year. Currently, there are more than 3,000 students at all levels in the academy. They are very good in all aspects, except that there are a few teachers. If there is a chance, I would like to invite them.  His Majesty also went to the academy to lecture the students. " "That's no problem. The Mangshan Royal Military Academy is very important. Our army in the Sui Dynasty will be dominated by professional soldiers in the future, supplemented by government soldiers and conscripts, and the professional soldiers of the Forbidden Army will be the leader.  Most of these professional military officers will be trained from the Mangshan Royal Military Academy. This will be the cradle of Sui officers. If you are asked to take charge of this academy, you will not be demoted or demoted.  It¡¯s about my trust and reliance on you. I hope you can understand.¡± ¡°I understand.¡± ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry about the teacher¡¯s problem. In our Sui military system, the senior generals are in the capital when they are not leading the army. They are not in the capital at ordinary times.  Whatever happened, I will go back and make a decree to let these senior generals work part-time in the academy as lecturers, professors, etc., and also teach our young non-commissioned officers and officers by words and deeds, and pass on some experience. " "Thank you, Your Majesty.  Love and support are so great." "Don't be too happy, my support is conditional." Yi Feng said with a smile.  "I wonder what your Majesty's conditions are?" Yi Feng personally poured a cup of tea for Li Jing, "What do you think of the situation around the Sui Dynasty now?" "The situation is very good." Li Jing said with a smile, "Your Majesty is wise and wise, and his rule is  "Yu Youfang." "You don't need to flatter me, and you can't do it well. Let's talk more realistically. You saw it in the court earlier. I want to strike while the iron is hot and make another northern expedition, but there is a lot of opposition in the court.  Ah." Li Jing put away his smile, "The left and right servants mainly consider it from the financial and logistical aspects. What they said is true. The two servants are also very capable people. If it were anyone else, it would be difficult to continue to support the imperial court.  In a short period of time, five battles were fought. Since they raised difficulties, it was really difficult. "Yi Feng waved his hand, "Wars are about money. Before the soldiers and horses are used, food and grass go first. I know this.  We can still hold on, and there is no solution. What I want to ask you now is your military suggestions for the imperial court. Can the imperial court achieve its goal if it launches another northern expedition at this time? " "Then I want to ask your majesty what the purpose is?  "What is it?" "My purpose?" Yi Feng smiled, "You should be clear. I have long said that I will eliminate Datou and Dulan who have always been dissatisfied with the Sui Dynasty, and then restore order to the grassland.  Really integrated into the rule and management of the Sui Dynasty." "If so, this is not a difficult matter."Hahaha."  "Yi Feng laughed loudly, "I knew you would say this.  "It took him a while to stop laughing, "Actually, to tell you the truth, the imperial court's finances are not a problem. I have many ways to solve it, and I will immediately provide the imperial court with a large amount of money to support the use of troops.  And regarding the Northern Expedition, I am actually quite confident. What I lack now is a suitable commander for the Northern Expedition, a commander who can understand my intentions and reach a tacit understanding with me.  ", Li Jing's breathing became rapid. The emperor summoned him alone to talk to him about this. Doesn't it mean that the emperor intends to consider him to serve as the commander-in-chief. "Tell me, if I ask you to lead the troops to the Northern Expedition again, what do you plan to do?  How to do it?  "Yi Feng stared at Li Jing. Li Jing knew that this was the emperor's test for him. If his answer was in line with the emperor's wishes, then he would have the opportunity to lead the army again. If not, then he would have missed this opportunity. He  I thought seriously in my mind, what kind of commander does the emperor need? What needs to be paid attention to? This depends on the emperor's purpose. The emperor also said just now that Dulan and Datou, who have been rebelling against the Sui Dynasty, will be wiped out and then rebuilt.  Grassland order. Well, sweeping away Dulan and Datou is just a means, not an end. The real purpose is to establish a new grassland order. Li Jing felt that he had grasped the emperor's purpose. After thinking for a while, he looked at the emperor and said.  , ¡°I believe that although Your Majesty has a way to solve the financial problem, the Northern Expedition should still pay attention to this issue.  Therefore, I feel that the next Northern Expedition does not necessarily require a large-scale war and the mobilization of countless armies like the last Northern Expedition.  If I were to lead the Northern Expedition, I thought one hundred thousand men would be enough.  " "One hundred thousand people, is this an exaggeration? You must know that the grassland is vast and thousands of miles away. The next Northern Expedition will be completely different from the last time.  Last time we were on defensive counterattack, but this time we can fight far outside the wall. This is a completely different way of fighting and will face more difficulties.  "Yi Feng reminded Li Jing. Of course, he was not disappointed immediately. He believed that people like Li Jing would not make the mistake of underestimating the enemy. "One hundred thousand soldiers and horses are just our Sui army.  Of course, other troops and horses are needed, but they do not need to be borne by us.  "Li Jing said confidently, "I propose that the imperial court gather 100,000 elite light cavalry, and then recruit the Turkic surrendered cavalry who have surrendered to the imperial court. In addition, orders can be sent to Tiele Khanate in Mobei, Xi, Lin, and  The Khitan Third Division, as well as the Gaochang Kingdoms in the Western Regions, as well as Dangxiang, Fuguo, Sunbo, Nuguo and other tribes, asked them to send troops together to unite for the Northern Expedition.  "Yi Feng listened carefully and nodded slightly. Li Jing's proposal was similar to what he thought. "The imperial court's one hundred thousand soldiers attacked Hetao directly. They first attacked Yinshan Nanbaidaochuan and destroyed Dulan, and then moved to the Western Region to destroy Datou.  .  With the cooperation of soldiers and horses from various vassals, one hundred thousand people would be enough.  "Li Jing was very confident. "Yi Feng smiled and said, "It seems that you know what you are doing. I plan to let you lead the Northern Expedition again. I will give you 200,000 people."  " "Your Majesty, we don't need many soldiers.  " "Listen to me, I will give you 200,000 soldiers and horses, but these 200,000 people are the Turkic cavalry who were surrendered before. I promised them to let them return to the grassland after the war. After all, these people cannot stay for a long time.  It will be a disaster if you come and stay, so I plan to let you lead them back this time.  Then I will send an edict to Tiele, Dangxiang and other vassals to send troops to destroy Dulan and Datou together. After they are destroyed, the Hetao area will be returned to the direct jurisdiction of the imperial court. The same will be true for the land south of Daibei Yin Mountain. For Mobei and  The Western Region will be temporarily entrusted to the leaders of various ministries who have made contributions to the imperial court.  " Li Jing was a little dumbfounded. The emperor gave him even more cruelty. He said he only needed one hundred thousand, but in the end the emperor didn't want to give him a single soldier. Two hundred thousand Turks surrendered, which was a lot. But if they were let back this time, it would definitely be fine.  He won¡¯t pay for any more food, baggage, etc. He brought these troops back to the grassland, and there was no logistical support at all. ¡°What, are you confident?  "Yi Feng asked with a smile. The 200,000 Turkic surrendered cavalry must be put back. They had an agreement when they surrendered. If they break their promise in the end, it will be impossible to establish any long-term rule in the grassland in the future. If Yi Feng  Without the enfeoffment plan, he could have killed them in a trap or simply placed them in the Central Plains. But since he had a long-term plan, these people were still useful. Now let them act as vanguards and kill them with Li Jing.  Let¡¯s talk about those anti-Sui Turks: ¡°If I lead the Turk army back to the grassland, will the imperial court provide food and grass?  "Li Jing still asked. "Haha.  "Yi Feng smiled slightly, "The imperial court will prepare food and grass for you to go to the grassland, but after you leave the country, you will not be able to supply it. You have to rely on yourself for everything.  By the way, after Dulan is destroyed, the Baidaochuan and Monan areas will have to be handed over to the imperial court. Is that okay?  " Li Jing was silent for a moment, feeling that he had been tricked by the emperor. What is this called another Northern Expedition? The last co-author??The imperial court did not send a single soldier at all. They gathered here and there and gathered together troops from all the Hu tribes to fight against the Turks Datou and Dutou. The imperial court neither sent troops nor provided food and fodder. This was still stressful.  So big.  "No problem." At this time, he had to get in anyway, but Li Jing felt that there should be no problem.  These Turks are also fighting for themselves. They should be very brave when they go back to fight for their own territory.
