"Although they were once the descendants of the Rest Empire, but the two countries of Upper and Lower Persia have been hostile for more than a hundred years, and unification is not such a simple thing, if there is no external force, Lower Persia may be able to unify Persia and re-establish a powerful Persian Empire." Leon's voice echoed in the main hall, "Our army will take the lead in attacking Upper Persia, and Persia will definitely not be able to resist the temptation to complete the great cause of unification at this time, as long as the two countries are at war, we can reap the benefits of the fisherman." ”

"You are right, the completion of unification is indeed an irresistible temptation for Lower Persia, but we are now facing a large-scale offensive by the Huns, and at this time we will attack Upper Persia, if Persia is not moved, but attacks the river, what should we do?" The opinions of the Great Sima are more conservative, what they want, Lower Persia must also want to get, this world is not full of stupid people.

Li Ang was asked, he did not know the situation of Lower Persia, if it was as the Great Sima said, Lower Persia would have a convulsion at that time, and take advantage of the time when they were fighting with Upper Persia, attack Hezhong, and drive the forces of Great Qin out of Hezhong with the Huns. In that case. The Persian army in the attack became a lone army, and thinking of this, Li Ang couldn't help frowning. He suddenly realized that he might have made a wrong strategic calculation, and as a general, he should be pursuing a foolproof plan.

"We might be able to give it a try!" Just when Li Ang was about to revise his plan, Cao Anmin's voice suddenly sounded, making Li Ang and the three of them all look at the young emperor, only to see Cao Anmin's face with an expression that only gamblers have. He clenched his fists and stared at Li Angdao, "Li Qingjia, if I hand over the matter of the Western Front in Hezhong to you, how sure are you that I will get things done?" ”

"The minister can't guarantee it, but the minister will do his best." Li Ang knew in his heart that the reason why Cao Anmin agreed to his strategy was because of his trust in him. He could have patted his chest and promised to come down, but he didn't, because he wasn't that kind of person.

"I believe in you." Looking at the cautious Li Ang, Cao Anmin did not change his mind. He just said this to Li Ang quietly, and the chief and the big Sima on the side watched silently. There was no objection, once upon a time, when they were young, the emperor's father, Emperor Wen, had not said this to them, when they came up with a crazy and almost gambling plan, and finally defeated Rome, the current scene is really very similar to that year, maybe they are already old, Da Sima and the chief looked at each other, and then laughed heartily, they can rest assured that they can retire to retire to retire for the rest of their lives.

"Your Majesty, the military hall is there, just leave it to us!" The chief looked at Cao Anmin, this emperor he looked at growing up, if there was anything wrong with this strategy in the end, let him and Da Sima bear it. Listening to his old friend's words, Da Sima also laughed, he was very satisfied with the chief's proposal.

"The minister will definitely live up to His Majesty and the two adults." Li Ang didn't know what to say, he knew that it was not easy for his adventurous strategic plan to pass the final deliberation of the military hall, and he had already sent a message to the great Sima and the chief commander in order to prevent Cao Anmin from forcing the military hall to pass this plan as the emperor, and they would use their strength, if he won this battle, naturally there would be nothing, but once he lost, all the blame would be attributed to the great Sima and the chief commander, and the two old men would use their net worth to vouch for him and the emperor.

"I'm also optimistic about you, don't let us down." When he left the main hall, looking at Li Ang, Da Sima and the chief said this, their trust made Li Ang's heart heavy, he knew that the most difficult battle in his life was coming, and he couldn't lose.

In the study, Li Ang looked at Li Cunxiao and said, "Send someone to the northwest, let Murong take his people to Wanzhou to wait for me first, as for Helian and them, let them go back to the desert to train their troops, and be ready to march to the river at any time." Li Ang promised Cao Anmin to take over the battle on the western front of Hezhong, and was ready to use his men and horses to deal with this battle, firstly, he wanted to let Chang'an's new army be transferred to the northern front to deal with the Huns as much as possible, and on the other hand, it was also to hone his own army.

Li Cunxiao soon took the order and left, when the door was opened, Feng Siniang and Lin Fengshuang walked in, they already knew that Li Ang was going to go on the expedition again, but this time, they didn't plan to stay in Chang'an anymore, and waited for Li Ang to come back every day, they decided to go to the river with Li Ang to deal with the Persians.

"No, if you go to the river, who will take care of them?" Hearing that Feng Siniang and Lin Fengshuang were going to go on the expedition with him, Rao was as calm as Li Ang, and he also jumped up, he had been so desperate, he just didn't want them to set foot in danger.

"Anyway, this time we don't

。 Feng Siniang didn't care about Li Ang's face was pale, glared at him, and said with a puffy mouth. And Lin Fengshuang on the side stood on her side, "With the godmother (Aunt Sun) here, Qi'er will have a good life." ”

"You guys?" Li Ang felt annoyed for the first time, but in the face of Feng Siniang and Lin Fengshuang, he didn't get angry, and finally he sat down in the chair dejectedly, of course he knew how persistent his two wives were, unless he locked them up, otherwise, they would definitely follow him to the river.

Seeing Li Ang sitting in the chair, Feng Siniang and Lin Fengshuang glanced at each other, but they were stunned, they had never seen their husbands like this, and the two of them almost relented and said, 'We're not going!' In the end, Feng Siniang and Lin Fengshuang just stood quietly, not daring to look at Li Ang, and there was dead silence in the study for a while. After a long time, Li Ang raised his head, looked at Feng Siniang and Lin Fengshuang, who seemed to have done something wrong but insisted on it, and sighed deeply, "Okay, I promise you, but after you go to the river, you have to listen to me!" ”

"Thank you, husband." Hearing that Li Ang promised to let him go to the river with him, Feng Siniang and Lin Fengshuang ran to Li Ang's side, and said happily, but it made Li Ang smile bitterly, although it seemed that he was the most majestic in the house, but as soon as he met Feng Siniang and Lin Fengshuang and made up their minds, he was out of line.

Watching Feng Siniang and Lin Fengshuang leave, Li Ang thought that when he went to the battlefield in the river in the future, he must let the guards of the broken army watch them closely. "Lord." Li Yanzong and Cui Hao, who came in, looked at Li Ang, who was a little dazed, and woke him up softly, when they came, they met Li Cunxiao, and they already knew that Li Ang was going to return to the battlefield this time, and they couldn't help but be a little excited, especially Cui Hao, he had been helping Li Ang take care of some trivial things before, since Wang Meng came, he had a sense of crisis, although Wang Meng was not the same as him, but he just didn't want to be compared.

"Bo Yuan, this time I went to the river to fight with the Persians, intelligence is the most important, and you and Yan Zong have a heavy burden." For Li Ang, fighting the two Persian countries is no better than dealing with those barbarians who have little civilization, and the history of the Persians can almost be compared with the Chinese, and their civilization is actually not bad, but after the strong rise of the Great Qin 150 years ago, it was suppressed.

"Rest assured, Lord." Cui Hao replied in a deep voice, he didn't say anything, since he was established by Li Ang as the head of the family's intelligence, he almost emptied the information of the countries on the way to the west from the archives of Jinyiwei, if it wasn't for the lack of time, he would have established an espionage network in Persia a long time ago.

"How well are the black hands trained, and how many people are suitable to go to Persia for assassination missions." Li Ang looked at Li Yanzong, the black hand is an assassination force that he asked Li Yanzong to train specifically for Cui Hao's secret agent system, the members of it are all selected from the adopted orphans, of which the Han people account for a very small part, most of them are orphans left by foreigners who come to Chang'an, Li Ang hopes that he has such a secret army in his hands that can carry out assassination missions in any country, although conspiracy or assassination can not promote history, but it is enough to change history.

"There are a total of seven people who can go to Persia on a mission, five men and two women, each of whom is an elite dead soldier." Li Yanzong, who was questioned, looked confident, the black hand troops, from the very beginning, he cultivated all the orphans as dead soldiers, and their loyalty was not comparable to even the most fanatical ninjas.

"You and the Black Hand go to the river first, let the assassination team blend into Persia first, get the identity, and then decide on the target when I arrive." Li Ang finalized the task of Cui Hao and Li Yanzong, this time against the Persians, the battlefield is only secondary, and politics is the sharpest weapon.

—

Cui Hao and Li Yanzong took the order, and the last to enter the study was Trist, a Roman who was considered an old minister under Li Ang, but he regarded himself as a Han man a long time ago, and he has been conscientiously taking care of the family business for Li Ang.

"After I leave this time, Lao Cui, you remember to sell all our properties in Chang'an, transfer them to Wanzhou, and open as many darts as possible, as soon as those orphans complete their training, let them go to darts, after the matter in Wanzhou is decided, you hand over the affairs of the dart bureau to others, continue to go back to Chang'an to recruit the poor people in Xicheng, and at the same time maintain a good relationship with Prince An Changsheng." For the calm Trist, Leon handed him the responsibility of staying behind.

"Sir, that Greek merchant wants to see you?" Seeing that Li Ang finished his instructions, Trist talked about another thing, the Greek wealthy merchant in his mouth was Contriano, who had a relationship with Li Ang when he eradicated the stronghold of Persian Manichaeism when he was not yet famous, after that incident, Li Ang had asked Trist to deal with this Greek rich merchant, and Contriano has always maintained a good relationship with Trist, since he knew that Li Ang was the first general of Daqin, this Greek wealthy businessman sought a meeting with Li Ang, but Trist always refused, He didn't think that the Greek merchant could bring Leon any good, but this time when Contriano revealed his ambitions to him, Trist thought that the Greek might be of some use to Leon.
