As for how to protect himself, this is something that Li Chengqian has been thinking about and doing, as a young man from the next generation, no matter how he is, he will never put himself in a Jedi.

So since a few years ago, Xiao Li has been committed to putting the old man in the air and uniting all the forces that can be united.

On the surface, Li Chengqian has been tossing, but the reality is that most of the old man's subordinates have a lot of money with him, in other words, although he has a lot of money in his hands, but these money are basically the belongings of those nobles, if one day the old man really wants to kill him, the old man's subordinates will be the first to come out to oppose it.

Of course, this is only one aspect, and Li Chengqian is not unprepared in other aspects, but it is all a reserve plan, and it is not enough to implement it until it is absolutely necessary.

At this time, in the Qin Mansion, Lao Qin also fell into hesitation after sending Li Chengqian away.

It is undeniable that Li Chengqian's proposal has a deep temptation for him, but he has to take into account Li Er's thoughts, Lao Qin knows very well that he is Lao Qin's right and left hand, but if he has such an unclear relationship with Li Chengqian, will it affect the status of the Qin family in the eyes of the emperor?

But Lao Li will always die, if he waits until Lao Li travels westward and then goes to find Li Chengqian, will it be too late?

Everyone understands the principle of standing in line as soon as possible, but when you need to choose, you will find that it is really difficult to choose.

……

In the Wa Kingdom, the war situation has entered the stage of confrontation, and without the support of the Tang Army, the naturalized people are powerless to advance at all, so they can only hold on.

And because the Japanese side suffered too much loss in the early stage, it was unable to launch a counterattack at this time.

Of course, the more reason is that they don't dare to fight back, after all, although the Tang army does not participate in the attack, but it has not withdrawn, if they fight back now, God knows if it will annoy these killing gods, and if they participate in the war again, it will really be a war of annihilation.

The eldest brother of the mountain, no, it should be called the Emperor of the Mountains now, and the battle has come to this point Shu Ming, the former Emperor of the Mountains, is to blame, and in the end he can only sit on the back of the Mountain in exchange for his future peace.

As the new emperor, the eldest brother of the mountain back sat in a royal palace converted from a temple, looking at the few shrimp soldiers and crabs under his command and didn't know what to think, but at that time, the face was serious, sometimes nervous, and sometimes smiling, so that everyone looked a little frightened.

"Your Majesty, those naturalized people have gone to Datang to ask for a reward, and now they have established the country, the name of the country is Dahe, and at the same time, a princess of Datang has been invited to take the position of the lord of the country, you see how we should deal with it." Saito, the former old housekeeper of the palace, saw that everyone didn't dare to speak, so he hesitated for a long time and walked up.

I have to say that this is a true portrayal of a person who has attained the Tao of the chicken and dog to ascend to heaven, the eldest brother on the back of the mountain became the emperor, and even his housekeeper was mixed with the position of the third grade.

"This is expected, those naturalized people now look at the Tang people like they see their own father, it is still strange that this kind of thing happened?" A guy who couldn't win the battle, but was still sharp-tongued, pouted.

"You don't know the point of the matter at all, so please keep your mouth shut." Saito glared at the general, and said angrily: "Guy who only has muscles in his head, if you can win a few battles, why not let the emperor live in such an environment." ”

"Winning the battle? It's easy to say that you want money or no money, you want food or not, you go outside and see what our warriors are eating now! And the face to mention to us to win the battle! What about weapons? What about equipment? Take all of our flesh to plug the bullet holes? ”

Speaking of fighting, although the general had never won a battle, he was still eloquent, and a certain butler was speechless.

"Enough, don't make any noise!" Brother Shanbei finally couldn't listen to it anymore, and stomped his foot fiercely and said, "I'll give it to me tomorrow...... Send an envoy to the Tang military camp to deliver congratulatory gifts. ”

"What?" A group of people were almost stunned.

I thought that the emperor could put forward some constructive suggestions with such a big fire, such as a counterattack, and take down two cities to give a warning to the naturalized people, but I didn't expect it to be...... Go for a gift.

Some ministers who couldn't accept this reality had a bitter face and asked in a tangled way: "Emperor, Emperor, you, you're not joking, are you?" ”

"Am I joking?" The big brother on the back of the mountain asked rhetorically with a straight face.

"So, then why do we go to give congratulatory gifts? If it weren't for Datang, why would we have fallen to this point! ”

"Because if you don't want to be in a worse situation, you can only do this, this is what Datang calls spending money to buy peace, understand?

I don't understand! Everyone doesn't understand that there is peace in a war like this! But no one said anything more, and let Saito receive the decree and turn around and go out.

It's over, it seems that the emperor has no hope for the future, and he will wait to destroy the country in the future! All the courtiers thought so.

However, just when everyone was disappointed, they heard Brother Yamabei say, "Monobe clan, how many warriors do you still have?" ”

Warrior? The head of the Monobe clan was stunned for a moment, then thought for a while and said, "Back to the emperor, there are about 50,000 people. ”

"Otomo, what about you?" The mountain-backed brother looked at the other person again.

"About 30,000." The head of the Otomo clan said.

"Fujiwara."

"About eighty thousand."

"Very well, I still have 100,000 warriors under my command, and we are not without the strength to fight." With a 'snap', the big brother on the back of the mountain slapped the armrest of the chair fiercely.

What the? The people below were stunned again, and looked at the Shanbei brother who was sitting in the position of the original Buddha statue in confusion.

"Look, I just did that just to paralyze those Tang people, as long as they don't get involved in this battle, we can defeat the naturalized people, and when the time comes, we can continue to expand the army after snatching weapons and food from the naturalized people, and finally snatch back all the lost land from the Tang people, and then kill them all!"

Damn, really? When did the emperor become so awesome? How did you come up with such a good solution?

The patriarch of the Monobe clan seemed to have something in mind at this time, looked at the elder brother of the mountain back and said, "Your Majesty, but if this is the case, Saito ......"

"Those who achieve great things are not informal, and I believe that Saito will definitely understand my painstaking efforts." There was a hint of madness in the eyes of the big brother on the back of the mountain.

In his opinion, now is the best opportunity to fight back, the naturalized people are celebrating the victory, and the Tang people are complacent, if they miss this opportunity, when they settle down again, it is estimated that there will be big trouble, and then it will be even more difficult to fight back.
