Chapter 386: Goguryeo's Preparations
"Of course you can, as long as you are happy!" Li Shimin hurriedly nodded in agreement, as long as Li Yuan didn't think about playing with the amusement facilities, everything else would be easy.
Early the next morning, Li Yuan asked the palace guards to send all the animals that were sacrificed and locked in the palace to the zoo for visitors to watch.
Although the new city has not yet been built and has not been moved in, the playground and zoo have been planned to open, and there will be many nobles every day, people come to watch, and some bring their children to play.
Every morning and evening, when it is cool, Li Yuan will go out in casual clothes, mix in the crowd and have fun together.
"Father, my son wants to go to the Western Regions with his third brother to pacify the Western Regions for you." Li Tai pulled Li Ke, lowered his head, peeked at Li Shimin, and said cautiously.
"Hey, hey! Shaft! You can also pacify the Western Regions! Or is it that my people are useless? Li Shimin was almost angry, hehe, squinted his eyes and said disdainfully.
"Hey, hey! Isn't the son thinking about sharing his father's worries! Li Tai was thick-skinned, turned a deaf ear to Li Shimin's ridicule, and said with a smile on his face.
"You want to go too? Did your mother agree? Li Shimin didn't care about Li Tai, and turned his face to Li Ke and asked with a pleasant face.
"Back to his father, the son didn't tell his mother that he didn't want her to worry, this is because the son wants to share his father's worries." Li Ke said with a fist in his face.
Li Shimin looked at this son who was most like himself between his eyebrows, and was also as heroic as he was when he was young, and said with satisfaction: "I am sure of this matter, you two brothers bring 5,000 people over, bring more supplies, and bring more canned food, I will hide this matter from your mother and concubine, so as not to worry them."
But you two can only be deputies, and everything has to be up to Cheng Mingzhen. ”
"Good boy, worthy of our old Li family's species." Li Yuan, who had just returned from playing, heard the conversation between their father and son, and said happily.
"I've seen my father," Li Shimin, father and son, hurriedly turned around and saluted.
"It's all your own family, no need to be polite, two good children, I don't go out in Chang'an, the five hundred guards trained by Feng Weiguo, you will take them together, Li Junxian is also a rare talent, just to help." Li Yuan happily looked at Li Ke and Li Tai and said.
"Thank you, Grandpa!" The two brothers, Li Ke and Li Tai, said excitedly.
Li Shimin looked at Li Yuan doting on the two, shook his head speechlessly, didn't say more, got up and went back to the harem.

Liaodong, Pingxiang City!
"The old man can't do it, as for the defense of the Tang Dynasty, the old man recommends Yang Wanchun." Eji Wende said breathlessly.
"The old general, please take care of your body, Goguryeo can't do without you!" Gao Jianwu looked at the old Longzhong's Yizhi Wende worriedly, and said with concern.
"Yes, old general, don't worry, Yang Wanchun, I will transfer him to the front line to deploy defense." Yuan Taizuo took two steps forward, held Ezhi Wende's arm, and agreed to his recommendation.
"Alas! This time is different from the past, Li Tang cannot be compared with the former Sui, even if the old man was young, he was not sure that he could defend it. Etoshi Wende said with a frown.
"How can this be?" Gao Jianwu asked with a pale face.
"The minister wants to strengthen the defense of the front, and in addition, he will ask Datang again for guilt and give gifts to relieve Li Shimin's heart." Yuan Taizuo looked at Gao Jianwu, who couldn't calm down, and sighed secretly, disappointed, but still said.
"Da Zhu Lu is right, this king will do what you want." Gao Jianwu was like a man in the water, grabbing the life-saving straw and nodding again and again.
"The king can't completely pin his hopes on Li Tang, he still has to prepare." Etoji Wende's forehead, which can kill mosquitoes, has never let go, and he said with his hand touching his chest.
"Old general, but there is still a way?" Gao Jianwu asked in surprise.
"The old way, use space to stretch the supply of the Tang Dynasty, drag it until the rainy season, find an opportunity to defeat them in winter, set up a few more lines of defense, slowly consume their troops, and when they feel that the gains outweigh the losses, they will naturally retreat." Yizhi Wende is also not optimistic about Gao Jianwu, but he doesn't want the country he desperately protects to die out, so he still tries his best to think of a way.
"Now Datang has a powerful naval division, and the previous successive attacks on Baekje, Silla, and even Jincheng were broken and ransacked." Yuan Taizuo introduced.
"Yes, the Great Pair Lu has ordered the river to be blocked, and there is no problem with Pingxiang, but the coastal city may be difficult to defend, and if they land from the sea, how can they defend it." Gao Jianwu said dejectedly.
"Alas! Only one step is counted, the coastal city should strengthen its defense, and set up more sentry posts in the warp to detect the enemy situation in advance and be prepared in time. Etozhi Wende sighed and said, his face even more ugly, and a dead gray appeared.
"Can you contact Baekje and Silla for joint defense?" Gao Jianwu said with a rare idea.
"Don't get your hopes up, it's good that these two countries don't fall into the ground, I'm afraid they still want to use us to curry favor with Datang." Yuan Taizuo said with a wry smile.
"Da Xiang Lu is very right, but you can probe their opinions, it's best to generalize, and we're done, don't think about it, will Datang still let them go."
Persuade them well, at least they should stand by and watch, even if they don't send troops, but it is better to support some food and weapons. Etoshi Wende nodded, took two deep breaths and said.
"The old general is worthy of our Goguryeo's Optimus White Jade Pillar, this is really a good way, and we will arrange personnel to send envoys tomorrow." Gao Jianwu's eyes lit up and he said in admiration.

Silla, the capital city of Bukwon City,
Moved the capital to Beiyuan City, there is no prosperity of Jincheng, no matter the size of the city, or the number of people, everything has lost the glory of the past, and the people who come and go have almost no smiling faces, they are all in a hurry.
Jin Shengman ascended the throne for half a year, although the people's hearts are stable, but there is no way to deal with the current depression scene, Zhang Liang ransacked Jincheng, not only the treasury, but also the royal family's savings for hundreds of years.
Now the imperial court can only put aside even if it has and ideas, you must know that to maintain the operation of the court, the ministers are still the money and grain donated by families from all over the world, and the imperial court can only wait until after the autumn harvest to have taxes.
"See Her Majesty!" Kim Yuxin, the general of Silla, walked into the dilapidated palace, the humble hall, and respectfully gave a salute.
"The general is exempt, but there is good news!" Jin Shengman gently rubbed his cheeks, beat his spirits, and asked in a slightly hoarse, magnetic voice.
"The princess's messenger has just returned, it should bring good news, Your Majesty also asks to take care of the dragon's body." Jin Yuxin looked at the graceful Jin Shengman with hot eyes, and said with concern.
