After a few old men left, Li Chengqian hurriedly went to the palace, he had to talk to the old man about this matter, after all, it was an operation of tens of thousands of people, and a large amount of equipment needed to be mobilized, if the old man did not know, God knows what the consequences would be.

When Li Chengqian arrived at the palace, he was just in time for the old man's lunch, and seeing that the old man seemed to be in a good mood, he went up to slap the horse.

As a result, the old man didn't give any face, glared at him and said, "If you have something to say, say it quickly, and let it go if you have a fart!" ”

Yes, it's only been a long time, and I'm not a Qianli horse of the Li family.

Li Chengqian shook his head with a wry smile, and after thinking about it, he said to Li Er: "Father, the son wants to send troops to the Wa Kingdom. ”

"Wa Kingdom?" A mist flashed in Li Er's eyes, but he quickly thought of something, looked at Li Chengqian and asked, "Are you all in place over there?" ”

"The layout is almost there, and now the internal chaos of the Japanese State is a mess, and the national strength is not as good as before." Li Chengqian replied seriously.

"Where are you going to transfer troops from?" The old man continued.

"Family, this time the retainers plan to join forces with them once and get out all the private soldiers in their hands." Li Chengqian hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to tell the old man the truth.

"Hmm." Li Er nodded: "It's not impossible. ”

"Father Emperor Shengming!" Li Chengqian immediately sent it to the horse.

"Hmph, is it that if I dismiss your idea, I won't be holy?" The old man glared at Li Chengqian.

"Hehe...... how can it be, if you don't want it, it's the father's wisdom." The old men on the left and right agreed, and Li Chengqian smiled perfunctorily.

Li Er was a little helpless about his son's rogue behavior, glared at him again and said, "Tell me about the specific situation of the Wa Kingdom." ”

Li Chengqian naturally wouldn't hide anything at this time, after all, no matter how much knowledge he had, it would come from the books of later generations, and it was not the slightest bit bad at going into battle, so it was naturally right to listen to the old man's opinions.

……

His Majesty Li Er quietly listened to Li Chengqian's account, tapped his fingers on the table, and said after a while: "Have you ever thought that this is a trap? What if it's a set set for you by the Japanese alliance and the Goguryeo and Silla people? ”

"This ......" Li Chengqian was stunned.

Some time ago, what he wanted to do was invincible and smooth, which made him somewhat have the habit of emptying his eyes, so after listening to the pleading of those widows, he immediately took what they said as true, and did not think about whether there would be any traps in it.

"You're still too young, you have to pay attention to this matter, I can allocate weapons and equipment to you, but you can only succeed and not fail, and I can't afford to lose that person if you fail."

"Yes, Erchen understands!" After being reminded by the old man, Li Chengqian immediately realized the seriousness of the problem, and after giving a salute, he said goodbye and left, and went directly back to the Qin Palace.

……

"Come on, go and check the movements of those widows for me, and arrest them all after they find them." After returning to the Qin Palace, Li Chengqian immediately gave an order.

"Yes!" A guard outside the door said yes.

And with Li Chengqian's series of actions, the entire Qin Palace's mansion became nervous, Ye Mei and Xiao Bai followed him inseparably, and Yang Yuxin was instructed by him to turn around, going here to convey orders for a while, and going there to collect intelligence for a while, and they were busy until midnight before they stopped.

And at this time, news also came from Kuroko's side that the group of widows had been caught and sent to the intelligence department.

……

Then it was three days of waiting, until noon on the fourth day, Heizi came to Li Chengqian's study with a confession: "Your Highness, fortunately, they are all recruited." ”

"Go on." Li Chengqian was looking at a book and replied casually.

"There doesn't seem to be any conspiracy among the Japanese people, but there seems to be something wrong with the Goguryeo and Silla people." Kuroko organized his words for a moment and spoke again: "According to the confessions of this group of Japanese people, those Goguryeo people had already occupied a large area of territory a year ago, but the strange thing is that the speed of their attack has slowed down significantly since then, but it doesn't look like a weak follow-up. ”

"Oh?" Li Chengqian sat up straight when he heard this, thought for a while and asked, "Do you know how many Goguryeo people fled to the Wa Kingdom?" ”

"About 50,000 people, all of them are young and strong, and there are about 20,000 Silla people." Kuroko replied.

"Are you sure?"

"The minister has confirmed it four times, and those widows have taken off at least three layers of skin, so I don't think there will be any fake." Kuroko said with certainty.

"Seventy thousand? The defeated Japanese kingdom cannot form an army, do you believe it? Li Chengqian seemed to be asking Heizi, and he seemed to be asking himself.

Kuroko hesitated for a moment, and said with some uncertainty: "If there are complete armaments, plus effective organization, it is not a big problem." ”

"But do they have all the armament? Where did this ordnance come from? ”

"This ...... I don't know. Kuroko shook her head.

"Okay, you go down, I'll think about it again." Li Chengqian saw that there was not much useful information about Heizi, so he sent him out, and then paced back and forth in the study alone.

You can't take all the words of those people who are in the dark, because it is very likely that these people are also kept in the dark and do not know the truth.

Compared with the Goguryeo and Silla people joining forces to make trouble in the Japanese state, Li Chengqian is willing to believe that their tripartite alliance is more reliable.

After all, Goguryeo and Silla were both destroyed by the Tang Dynasty, and the Wa Kingdom should know that their internal strife was also caused by the Tang Dynasty, so the possibility of their tripartite alliance is far greater than attacking each other.

But how do you know for sure? Ask Yang Tian for information? Is Yang Tian really credible?

After thinking about it for a long time, Li Chengqian decided to go to the 'Spring Dream' to have a look, and let the satisfied people who were more familiar with the situation of the Japanese Kingdom judge it.

……

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, January has passed, and the time has entered October, and the first winter snow has fallen in Chang'an City.

All the preparations that should be made have been made, a large number of ordnance is being shipped, and several great families and some nobles have also sent their own private soldiers.

A contingent of 50,000 people began to march to Dengzhou in Shandong.

Li You changed into a battle armor that he had been looking forward to for a long time, and was sitting on his horse to say goodbye to Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian gave Li You the final advice: "Xiao Wu, remember what I said, don't be merciful when you get there, remember, those are all foreign races, not our compatriots, and we will be cut off when we decide." ”

And Li You smiled nonchalantly: "Brother, don't worry, nothing will go wrong, besides, isn't there still a few months before the expedition, let's just go to Dengzhou to adapt to it this time, you still have a lot of time to teach me a lesson." After that, he squeezed his eyes at Li Chengqian.
