Pei Min has been troubled recently. The atmosphere in the court did not have a deep hostility towards Tubo, but regarded it as the object of trade. In their eyes, although the two countries were mortal enemies before and after many battles, they are now allies and have long turned into jade. Ten years ago, after Tubo Zanpu invaded and defeated the governor Chen Daci, the two sides had no wars. The Tang-Tu border has been peaceful for ten years.

Especially four years ago when Princess Jincheng entered Tibet, the relationship between Tubo in the Tang Dynasty improved greatly, and even traded. Just like Princess Wencheng entered Tibet in the past, the relationship between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo felt a sense of harmony under the creation of the two countries.

It is also because of this that Pei Min's current court officials and generals were not very prepared for Tubo, including Li Longji. The Tang Dynasty's military strength is weak now, and the political idea of ​​forming a strong army has not been implemented. Li Longji and the generals of the court are unwilling to start military affairs, which will increase the burden on the country and the people. This is also the reason why Li Longji attaches great importance to the envoys of Tubo. The purpose is to hope that the two countries can live in peace. When the Tang Dynasty's military strength improves, it will not be too late to do military affairs again.

Li Longji and the civil and military officials of the court are correct. If Pei Min didn't know the historical process, he might have the same view and did not want to act rashly at this time.

Facts have proved that all this is delusion. The military affairs of the two countries are not something you don’t want to fight if you don’t want to fight. On the contrary, the less you don’t want to fight, the more your enemy will send troops at this time.

This is the real way to use troops. Tubo is as prosperous as today, so how can we not know this basic truth?

The Tang Dynasty was in chaos before, so the surrounding areas were naturally happy to watch the walls, show themselves, and watch the internal struggles of the Tang Dynasty. They were willing to reap the benefits of fishermen. Now, the Tang Dynasty has been brought about by Li Longji's restructuring and moving towards stability. How could Tubo and Turks sit and watch the comfortable development of the Tang Dynasty?

For some reason, Pei Min planned to use this matter to break the delusion of peace between Li Longji and Chaowu, making them realize that although it was not the time, they could not avoid fighting.

Back at the Censorate, Pei Min directly found Wang Xiaobai.

Wang Xiaobai is a real person. Even though he was promoted to the position of Chief Censor, Pei Min still asked him to follow him and act only by his own orders. His official position is still an inspector, but his status is very different.

"Zhongcheng!" Wang Xiaobai was highly valued by Pei Min, and his status and salary increased. Not only did he have a better job, his childhood sweetheart also agreed to the marriage, which was a big success in love and career. He was honest and had no fun. He didn't know how to repay his kindness. He expressed his actions and worked very hard in doing things.

Pei Min nodded to him, his eyes fell on his lower plate, and asked, "Xiaobai! Have you learned some martial arts? I can see that your legs and feet are particularly strong!"

Wang Xiaobai nodded embarrassedly and said, "It's not considered serious martial arts. My grandfather was a surprise soldier captain under the command of Duke Li Wei. Later, the family was defeated, and his ancestors only left behind the oral training methods. I followed him and had no real skills, but I just started to practice my legs and feet. I ran very fast, and few people chased me. Originally, I was just a small gangster, but because I ran fast and could catch thieves, I was promoted to the patrol."

Pei Min heard Xue Na talk about the surprise soldiers. I remember when Xue Na taught him the marching and formation class, he once said: "My famous generals from the Tang Dynasty have emerged, but no one has been to the Duke of Li Wei. Just as Han Xin, the Marquis of Huaiyin, said in the past that more soldiers are better and better. The more soldiers, the more they are, the more they are tested for the commander's ability to dispatch troops. Only Duke Li Wei is the one who can truly achieve the more and better as the Marquis of Huaiyin. Duke Li Wei is bold and uses fine troops. As far as 100,000 soldiers and more than 100 soldiers can be divided into clear details. Whenever he goes to fight, he must divide the crossbowmen, archers, horse soldiers, jumping, surprise soldiers, combat soldiers, etc. Every soldier and every military service, he dispatches just right. When the battle is confronted, he will use his greatest advantage and there will be no mistakes."

When Pei Min heard this, he was filled with worship of Li Jing, the Tang Dynasty military god. If he had not been the commanding force, how could he have swung the characteristics of each army like a finger-arm in the changing situation? I thought that one day he could command thousands of troops like Li Jing and go to the battlefield to kill the enemy. Thinking that the war between Tubo in the Tang Dynasty was coming soon, Pei Min couldn't help but have a small expectation in his heart. Although he served in the Censorate, his heart was not here.

The surprise soldiers were an indispensable victory and defeat in Li Jing's army. The military strategy of Li Weigong of the Tang Dynasty said: It is a matter of ten, with three points as surprise soldiers. The requirement of these three points of surprise soldiers is to travel through mountains and rivers like walking on flat ground, and be able to cut into the weak points of the enemy's formation as fast as possible at any time, and the battle situation has been determined.

Wang Xiaobai practiced according to the method of the surprise weapon, and it was natural to have strong feet.

"I'll give you a task. You go to Chongrenfang to find the mansion of General Yang Ju. According to the contact information I gave you, I will quietly contact someone named Sun Zhou. You can find a place nearby to stay. Remember to contact you and report to me immediately. No matter when, no matter what the situation is, you must send the message to me."

Wang Xiaobai patted his chest resolutely and took the order.

Watching Wang Xiaobai leave, Pei Min also found that there were not many good players around him. At critical moments, there seemed to be no reliable and capable assistant in his hands. He pondered whether he should recruit some talents from the world for his use. Many people in the world have skills, and as long as they are loyal and reliable, it is more effective than re-cultivating their confidants.

Pei Min can't be alert to the enemy for the time being, and the situation is planned, so he can only wait for the change.

Pei Min re-handled the matter of the Censorate, but heard Gao Lishi walk into his office and shout anxiously: "Pei Zhongcheng, Pei Zhongcheng!"

Pei Min was curious that Gao Lishi's appearance often represented Li Longji. Even if he was in the prime minister's residence, Gao Lishi was famous for being cautious and careful. Every time he looked for someone to meet, he would patiently wait for the communication. There was almost no need to break through. Especially when Gao Lishi's forehead had a red and swollen mark and a little scar on his nose, it was even more strange. Gao Lishi was recognized as the most popular confidant next to Li Longji. Can anyone hurt him?

"Eunuch Gao, are you?" Pei Min stood up to greet him.

Gao Lishi said anxiously: "While we walked, we said that my face in the Tang Dynasty was saved by the Chief Executive."

Pei Min was confused, but he followed suit and couldn't help asking again: "Eunuch, are you injured?"

Gao Lishi was both upset and angry, and said, "It was the wounded monks of Tubo."

No one can hurt Gao Lishi's status today, but he is more skilled in martial arts and has no eyes but is different.

Today, Li Longji asked the Ministry of Rites to entertain the Tubo envoys as usual, and went to watch the Tang Dynasty polo game with them by Wu. Li Longji's intention was very obvious, and he wanted to play a friendly match with Tubo, which would once again slash the Tubo spirit. At the beginning, he also invited the Tubo envoys to watch the polo game, and the Tubo envoys proposed to compete with the Tang Dynasty polo team.

At that time, the polo team of the Tang Dynasty was not prepared to fight Tubo, but later Li Longji, Li Yong, Yang Shenjiao and Wu Yanxiu appeared, and four of them fought ten people, directly dazzled the Tubo polo team and proudly raised their heads.

This time, Li Longji made sufficient preparations and specially arranged several "goal friends" who played polo with him in the past, urging them to train for special purposes and think that they are today. As a result, no one expected that Tubo would never mention the polo game, and had no idea of ​​comparing polo with the Tang Dynasty. Many preparations were in vain.

At the state banquet after polo, the Tubo envoy expressed his admiration for the power of the Tang warriors, and the Tubo warriors hoped to teach the Tang warriors well.

Although Li Longji was unprepared, he did not believe that the Tang Dynasty warriors were not as good as those of Tubo, so he agreed.

As a result, the Tang Dynasty sent two warriors to defeat the Tubo monks, and they were unable to fight back and failed to take over ten moves. Li Longji's face looked extremely ugly, and Gao Lishi couldn't stand it, so he won glory for the main and came to the competition himself.

Gao Lishi was not as vulgar as he played on TV. On the contrary, he was tall and strong, and had great courage and martial arts. He fought with Tubo monks for twenty matches, but he didn't want the monk to cheat, so he swept his legs and kicked him to the ground. Gao Lishi was not seriously injured, but he was on the ground and had traces on his nose and forehead, which looked extremely scary.

The Tang Dynasty lost three consecutive games, and the Tubo envoy was extremely proud and mocked the Tang Dynasty for being no one.

Li Longji had the best face, and he was only angry that the Buddha was born and the two Buddhas ascended to heaven. However, the warriors under his command were not strong enough and could only feel sulky.

Gao Lishi thought of Pei Min and proposed to Li Longji to invite Pei Min and let him deal with the Tubo monks.

Pei Min recently lost to Chang'an famous figures. Even though Li Longji was in the palace, he heard the rumors. There was still some hesitation there and asked Gao Lishi to come out of the palace to invite him.

Pei Min was furious when he heard the reason. He had no good feelings for the Tubo thieves, especially when he learned that the Tubo thieves had taken the Hexi Jiuqu land of the Tang Dynasty without bloodshed. He felt a deep hatred. Now he heard that the Tubo thieves were broken and bullied them, and he showed off his power at the banquet. He still endured it and said angrily: "Don't worry, eunuch, I will avenge you."

Gao Lishi had a great impression of Pei Min, the main reason was that Pei Min regarded him as an ordinary person, and he was not flattered or discriminated against him. As a disabled eunuch, Gao Lishi had a very good attitude, but he would eventually have such a little inferiority complex. He has a very high status now and can be said to have achieved success. However, as a eunuch, some people discriminated against him, and some people pleased him, and some people ignored him. For example, Pei Min, there were not many people who regarded him as a normal person.
