Chapter 101 Summoned
After the morning court ended the next day, Cheng Yaojin, Yu Chigong, and Niu Jinda came to Li Shimin's study together to ask for an audience.
"Your Majesty, I'm waiting to see you!" Cheng Yaojin and the others bowed and saluted.
Li Shimin said with a smile: "Wai Li, you come to see me together, what's the matter?"
"Your Majesty, I have obtained a new method of training soldiers, and I would like to ask Your Majesty to have a look at it." Cheng Yaojin took out the memorial and the method of training soldiers written by Lin Xuan and raised it over his head.
Li Mu hurried forward to take it, and brought it to Li Shimin.
"Oh?" Li Shimin looked at it with great interest.
Li Shimin read the method of training soldiers first, and he saw at a glance that the word was written by Lin Xuan, but he didn't say anything.
It didn't take long for Li Shimin to read the method of training soldiers. He thought for a while, but without speaking, he picked up Cheng Yaojin's memorial and read it again.
Cheng Yaojin's memorial listed the advantages and disadvantages of this method of training soldiers and wrote it in great detail.
After reading it, Li Shimin asked, "Is this written by Lin Xuan?"
"Return to Your Majesty, that's right." Cheng Yaojin nodded and said.
Li Shimin looked at Yu Chigong and Niu Jinda, and asked, "Do you also think this method is useful?"
Yu Chigong and Niu Jinda nodded. They had seen this method at Cheng Yaojin's house yesterday, and they agreed that this method was feasible.
"Then how many people do you think is appropriate to train with this method?" Li Shimin asked.
"Ten thousand!"
"Thirty thousand!"
"fifty thousand!"
The three of Cheng Yaojin said at the same time, but the numbers they said were different.
The three of them glared at each other after they finished speaking.
Li Shimin rubbed his head and said, "Since Lin Xuan proposed this method, then call Lin Xuan over and see what he has to say."
After finishing speaking, he ordered Li Mu to send someone to call Lin Xuan over.
……
Lin Xuan came back from the East Palace yesterday, and was so excited that he didn't sleep all night.
However, after thinking about it, he felt that something was wrong. Since Li Shimin was going to marry his daughter to him, why didn't he say anything when he met him before?
Wouldn't he be deceived by Li Chengqian?
The more Lin Xuan thought about it, the angrier he became. He told Li Chengqian so much, but he lied to him.
With resentment towards Li Chengqian, Lin Xuan slowly fell asleep.
In fact, Lin Xuan misunderstood Li Chengqian, and Queen Changsun told Li Lizhi that Li Shimin wanted to test Lin Xuan.Li Lizhi found Li Chengqian and asked him to notify Lin Xuan so that he could make preparations.
However, what Lin Xuan said had too much impact on Li Chengqian, how could Li Chengqian think about it.
This caused Lin Xuan to wake up much later than usual the next day.After getting up, after practicing martial arts, eating, and completing the daily routine check-in, I went to find Lin Dongyang.
He wants to discuss with Lin Dongyang about building a house.
Lin Dongyang didn't refuse, he also felt that Zhouzhuang was a good place, it was close to Chang'an, and the village was full of servants from his family.
The father and son were discussing some details, and someone from the palace came to report, and someone from the palace called Lin Xuan into the palace to face the saint.
Lin Xuan's heart moved, could it be that Li Shimin came to him to talk about marrying Li Lizhi to him?
After talking to Lin Dongyang, Lin Xuan called Liu Da and went straight to the palace.
Lin Xuan stepped into the study and found that Cheng Yaojin and the others were there, so he knew it was not what he thought, and felt a little disappointed.
"Sir, see Your Majesty." Lin Xuan bowed and saluted.
Li Shimin waved his hands and said, "You came up with this method of training soldiers. What do you mean by this ideological education?"
Lin Xuan didn't expect Cheng Yaojin to move so fast, it was given to him yesterday, and it is in Li Shimin's hands today.
"Your Majesty, the purpose of ideological education is to let soldiers understand what it means to defend their home and country, to be loyal to the court, and to be loyal to His Majesty," Lin Xuan said.
Most of the soldiers in ancient times were to support their families and make a living.
Why did so many people serve as soldiers in the Tang Dynasty?It's not because there are many preferential conditions for being a soldier.
Of course, it is not ruled out that some people have noble patriotic sentiments, but they are a minority after all.
The Li family started as a rebel, if those soldiers talk about loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, why would they rebel with the Li family?
To put it bluntly, they are all ordinary people, whoever becomes the emperor has nothing to do with them, they just want to fill their stomachs.
Lin Xuan's phrase "loyal to His Majesty" moved Li Shimin.
"How many people do you think are suitable for this army?" Li Shimin asked.
Lin Xuan said: "Chen's training method is just a theory now, it's best to test it on a small scale first."
He was afraid that Li Shimin would directly create an army of tens of thousands, and his training methods would be troublesome if he did not adapt to the environment.
Li Shimin nodded, this is not a trivial matter after all, "How about entrusting this army to your training?"
Lin Xuan was stunned for a moment, and said, "Your Majesty, I have never led a soldier before, isn't it suitable? I think a few dukes are quite suitable. Your Majesty might as well choose one of them."
The reason why Cheng Yaojin and others are so keen on this training method is to be able to command this army.
"It's just for you to train and experiment. After all, you proposed the method and you are most familiar with it." Li Shimin said.
"If Your Majesty can agree to my two requests, I will agree." Lin Xuan gritted his teeth and said.
"Oh? Let's hear it." Li Shimin said with interest.
Since he became emperor, Lin Xuan was the first one who dared to negotiate terms with him.
"Your Majesty needs to give me twice as many people as you want to train, and I have no experience in leading troops. I heard that Cheng Chumo, Yuchi Baolin, and Qin Huaidao are skilled in military tactics. I hope Your Majesty can send them to help me." Lin Xuan said.
He did this to sell favors to Cheng Yaojin and his family.
He originally wanted to mention the Li De Award, but after thinking about it, let it go. If Li Jing wants to hide his clumsiness and help himself, maybe he will not be happy.
Cheng Yaojin and Yu Chigong looked at Lin Xuan gratefully.
It's just training soldiers. Whether it's dangerous or not, credit is indispensable if you do it well.
Li Shimin took a deep look at Lin Xuan and said, "Why do you need double the number of people?"
He didn't mention the silence of the few people, which means he has agreed.
"A lot of people are used for weeding out. Soldiers don't have a sense of crisis, so how can they train so hard?" Lin Xuan explained.
His training method is very hard, if you don't force him, how can they train honestly.
Li Shimin said decisively: "The proposed decree is to designate Bolinxuan of Jingyang County as a brave general, and Cheng Chumo, Yuchi Baolin, and Qin Huaidao as school lieutenants. They will be responsible for training the new army in the next year."
Li Shimin inspected Cheng Yaojin and the others, and said: "The left leader will assign 6000 people to Lin Xuan to lead, and the left leader will still be in charge."
Cheng Yaojin was overjoyed, he is the general of the left leader, this army is under his control, and when it expands in the future, he has a high chance of being able to control this army.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Lin Xuan bowed to thank him.
"I take orders!" Cheng Yaojin responded.
After Cheng Yaojin finished speaking, he looked proudly at Yu Chigong and Niu Jinda.
The two were so angry that they wanted to beat him up.
Li Shimin said: "Okay, you all go back, Lin Xuan stays!"
Lin Xuan was taken aback, why did Li Shimin leave him alone?
Is it...
Thank you for your reward, thank you for your support!
