Chapter 178 The Book of Li Bai's Drunken Grass to Scare the Man (1)
In April, Yang Guozhong finally finished preparations, all the food, grass, weapons and weapons were in place, and he asked Emperor Xuanzong of Tang to send troops to attack Nanzhao for the second time, and immediately received the approval from Emperor Xuanzong of Tang.
After all, Yang Guozhong also served as the governor of Jiannan. Once he won the attack on Nanzhao, he would have made a contribution.
For this war, Yang Guozhong concentrated a large amount of supplies and soldiers in Jiannan Chengdu, which can be said to be strong.
The battle between Geshuhan and Tubo became more and more intense. This time, Tubo would never send troops to rescue Nanzhao. Yang Guozhong confidently believed that Nanzhao would be destroyed this time.
With the will of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, on April 10, Yang Guozhong ordered the new deputy envoy of Jiannan Li Mi to start sending troops to attack Nanzhao.
Li Mi is Yang Guozhong's confidant. Although Yang Guozhong also served as the governor of Jiannan, he was even more the prime minister. His focus was on Chang'an City. It was impossible for him to go to Jiannan to handle military affairs. Xian Yu Zhongtong has always been the one who handled it on his behalf. The last time Xian Yu Zhongtong was defeated and was dismissed from office, Li Mi took over Xian Yu Zhongtong as Yang Guozhong's spokesperson in Jiannan.
"Haha, Yang Guozhong took it for granted. In order to launch a war, in addition to strong troops, he also needs a famous general commander with strong military ability. What is Li Mi? He has never fought a big battle once, and he thought that with his relationship with Yang Guozhong, he was qualified to command so many large armies to conquer and destroy the Nanzhao Kingdom? Yang Guozhong is playing with fire." Li Fei smiled disdainfully when he heard the news.
Li Fei's disdain did not affect Yang Guozhong's confidence at all.
Moreover, after Yang Guozhong ordered Li Mi to start attacking Nanzhao Kingdom, what he was waiting for was the result, so he finally freed up a lot of energy and began to turn his eyes to Li Fei and Li Bai whom he hated.
Yang Guozhong instructed his officials to attack Li Fei and Li Bai for several brief reports to Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, saying that Li Fei was a bit far-fetched, and that Li Bai was mostly drunk all day long and was out of order.
Such a report has no effect on Li Fei, but he has begun to feel a little disliked by Li Bai and Emperor Xuanzong of Tang. After all, no matter how talented a person is, you may think he is drunk in front of you at one time and you may not care about it. But if you do this every time, you will inevitably feel disliked if you see it too much. After all, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang is still an emperor, and I hope that everyone will be respectful in front of him.
However, what Li Bai gave Tang Xuanzong the impression of a "strange man". There are so many strange people. Tang Xuanzong can still understand it at this moment, but he still won't blame Li Bai.
At the end of April, the Northeast Bohai Kingdom sent an envoy to deliver a letter of war!
Yes, it is a war letter that challenges the Tang Dynasty.
"With a small country in Bohai, he dares to challenge my Tang Dynasty?" Emperor Xuanzong of Tang was so angry that he sneered and issued an order to summon the envoy of Bohai Kingdom the next day.
This is a big news. For many years, no foreign countries dared to send a challenge letter. Either they started a war directly against the Tang Dynasty, or the Tang Dynasty took the initiative to attack others. This was the first time they sent a war letter to challenge them.
There were many discussions in Chang'an City, and everyone scoffed at it. Even ordinary people did not take the Bohai Kingdom seriously, thinking that it was just a barbarian Yelang who was arrogant.
Li Fei was stunned when he heard about this, but he didn't think much about it. He just waited for the morning meeting tomorrow and knew what was going on.
The next day at the court meeting, an envoy of the Bohai Kingdom dressed in Hu's clothes walked into the court with a horoscope with a pride. Emperor Xuanzong of Tang and the civil and military officials of the court frowned.
The envoy of the Bohai Kingdom handed over the war letter to Gao Lishi. He would have read it directly for Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, but Gao Lishi was stunned as soon as he opened the so-called war letter.
Emperor Xuanzong of Tang frowned, and the civil and military officials in the court were also puzzled.
Gao Lishi presented the letter to Emperor Xuanzong of Tang. When Emperor Xuanzong of Tang saw that it was not written in Chinese, but in the local ethnic minority language of the Bohai Kingdom. Gao Lishi didn't recognize it at all, so of course he couldn't read it.
Emperor Xuanzong of Tang waved his hand and asked Gao Lishi to circulate the civil and military officials of the court, hoping that someone would recognize the words of Bohai Kingdom.
It has been passed down from the prime minister Yang Guozhong who stood first.
Li Fei also took a look. Of course, he could not recognize such a rude article.
None of the other civil and military officials in the dynasty knew such a mantra. After reading it one by one, they looked confused.
"Your Majesty, these barbarian books are all traces of birds and beasts. I am short-study and do not know a single word." Seeing that no one stood up for a while, a third-rank official stood up and said.
"Hahahaha, the Tang Dynasty seems to be in no talent. No one can understand the war letter sent by the King of Bohai. I am afraid that no one can resist the attack on the Tang Dynasty," the messenger of Bohai Kingdom laughed in fluent Chinese.
Obviously, many people in the Bohai Kingdom knew Chinese characters, but they deliberately wrote war books with a few local words in order to mock the Tang Dynasty.
After being ridiculed by the envoys of barbarians from foreign countries, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang could no longer bear the face.
People have sent a letter of war, but no one recognizes what they said. I don’t know what the fierce words in the book are. How can the Tang Dynasty respond? If there is no reply, wouldn’t it be even more ridiculed?
"Are there no well-educated scholars in the court able to share my worries?" Emperor Xuanzong of Tang said angrily to the civil and military officials in the court.
At this time, Yang Guozhong suddenly stood up after a change of thought.
"Your Majesty, Hanlin Li Bai once said that he was unparalleled in the world, but if you summon him to come, you will definitely be able to recognize this barbarian book."
Li Fei stood behind Yang Guozhong, and when he heard Yang Guozhong's words, he felt a little shocked. Yang Guozhong deserved to have killed Wang Huan and Li Linfu's existence. He was really cunning and too sinister. He definitely didn't want to recommend Li Bai. Bohai Kingdom is far away in the barbaric land in the northeast. Except for the people there, who knows the barbarians there? Yang Guozhong probably also felt that Li Bai didn't know the barbarians of Bohai Kingdom, so he dug a big hole for Li Bai.
I didn't hear Yang Guozhong's words saying that Li Bai said that he was unparalleled in the world, and since he was unparalleled in the world, he had to know everything. So Yang Guozhong also said that Li Bai would definitely be able to recognize the barbarian books of the Bohai Kingdom.
The big pit came, and Emperor Xuanzong of Tang was filled with anger at this moment. Once Li Bai came, it would be fine to recognize the mantras of the Bohai Kingdom. Once he couldn't recognize it, how could he dare to say that he was unparalleled in the world? Emperor Xuanzong of Tang must have passed on to Li Bai. At that time, Yang Guozhong said a few more words, adding a little bit of fire. Will Li Bai have any good fruits to eat?
Although he saw Yang Guozhong's intention, Li Fei was not worried about Li Bai at all. He remembered that there seemed to be a Li Bai drunken grass and scared Manshu. Could it be this time?
Li Bai was quickly summoned by Xuan, which was rare. Li Bai was not drunk this time.
Li Fei thought it might be because he just woke up in the morning and had not had time to drink.
