"Uncle Jingyang County, explain, you haven't seen him, why do you know him so well, and are you so sure that he will be able to be the vanguard of my Tang Army?"

Even if Zhang Yi dares to use his name to vouch, there will still be doubts.

Since you have vouched for him with his name, then you must know him, so you can tell me what are his advantages that can allow you to use his name to guarantee him as the vanguard of the Eastern Expeditionary Army.

Zhang Yi glanced at the minister who spoke, and then arched his hand at Li Er and said: "That's it, each of you asks me a question, it's too troublesome, and the main problem that is tangled now is your distrust of Xue Li's ability, since this is the case, then let's just go to the test of Xue Li." ”

"Let Xue Li speak with his actions, this is better than what I say."

Indeed, facts speak louder than words, no matter how Zhang Yi explains, there will be objections, so the best way is to take a test of Xue Li to see if he has the ability to be the vanguard of this Eastern Expeditionary Army.

Li Er thought for a few seconds, looked at the ministers below and had no objections, and then agreed to Zhang Yi's method.

"Biography, Xue Li will go on the Hajj."

"Biography, Xue Li will go on the Hajj."

A loud voice spread into the distance, and Xue Li, who had already been prepared, immediately rushed from his residence to the court hall after being summoned, under the leadership of the inner attendant.

"Xue Li brought."

With a shout from the outside of the hall, Xue Li walked inside with his head held high.

"Grass people Xue Li, knock to see Your Majesty."

Xue Li walked to the front without changing his face, and after seeing Li Er, he directly made a great salute.

Compared with the scene when he first saw Li Er, Xue Li at this time was much calmer, from the moment he walked into the court to the present, his face had not changed, and he did not need to panic at all.

A person with a weak crown can have such a temperament, and the first impression of this level, Xue Li has passed, and most people in the court have changed their opinion of him because of this.

The person who can make Zhang Yi recommend so desperately is really not bad.

And Xue Li also knows that now is the critical moment in his life, so he naturally has to seize the opportunity and strive to perform perfectly.

"Let's be flat."

Li Er raised his hand and asked Xue Li to get up.

At the same time, Li Er also asked Xue Li to tell Xue Li what happened, and the next thing he had to do was to show himself and let everyone see if he had the qualifications to be the vanguard of the Eastern Expeditionary Army.

After listening to the narration, Xue Li made a big salute to Zhang Yi, this is his own Bole and his own nobleman.

Xue Li is far away in Hedong, and Zhang Yi has been staying in Chang'an, almost never been to Hedong, and he is not famous, but he was recommended by Zhang Yi, and in order to be able to make him a pioneer, Zhang Yi is even willing to use his own name to vouch for him, this is a great grace, you must know that people in this era regard their reputation as life.

Zhang Yi gently lifted Xue Li up: "What you have to do now is not to thank me, what you have to do is to show yourself to the adults and let them know that you have the ability to serve as the vanguard of the Eastern Expeditionary Army." ”

"I can only introduce you to Your Majesty, but whether you can succeed or not depends on your own ability."

Zhang Yi said softly, as if he was selfless and selfless, serving the country and the people.

Xue Li also knew that now was not the time to be polite to Zhang Yi, so he arched his hand and said, "Great grace is not grateful." ”

After saying to Zhang Yi, Xue Li looked at the ministers above the court and said, "Since we are discussing the issue of the Eastern Crusade, then, let me talk about the situation in Goguryeo." ”

Xue Li did not go into other places, but briefly described the current situation and expressed his opinions appropriately.

After talking about the situation, Xue Li began to show his knowledge of the art of war again.

Some generals in the court took turns asking him questions, many of which were difficult, but Xue Li answered them one by one without changing his face, and his answers were almost satisfactory.

Looking at Xue Li, who was able to answer questions and answers in the court, Zhang Yi felt that he was a Confucian in tongue warfare.

Sneaking a glance at Li Er, he found that he was looking at Xue Li with relish as he argued with everyone, and Zhang Yi knew that Xue Li had won Li Er's favor.

And now according to Xue Li's performance, Zhang Yi is almost certain that as long as there is no one more demonic than him, then Xue Li will be in the vanguard of the Eastern Expeditionary Army.

Xue Li's bearing, as well as the wisdom and courage he showed, all impressed the civil and military generals in the court.

"Jingyang County Bo is really discerning, I might as well wait."

"Well, Xue Li is indeed extraordinary, and there is no objection to the old decay."

Many people who had opposing views just now had been convinced by Xue Li at this time, and they all changed their words and agreed to Xue Li as the vanguard of the Eastern Expeditionary Army.

The situation is very good.

Xue Li couldn't help but get excited in his heart, is his most critical life node coming?

The results of the discussion among the courtiers are probably out, and now there are only a few people who oppose Xue Li as the vanguard of the Eastern Expeditionary Army.

The arguments for those who opposed it were age and Xue Li's lack of experience in military combat.

These reasons are simply weak in Zhang Yi's eyes.

What does age indicate? He is only in his twenties now, not much different from Xue Li, but he is the hero of the Tang Dynasty's victory over the Turks and Tibet, isn't this enough to explain anything?

Besides, Xue Li has already shown enough qualifications, and he only needs to sharpen it a little, and he is definitely a fierce general in the Tang Army.

If they were worried that Xue Li was inexperienced, then they only needed to assign him an experienced deputy pioneer, and everything would be perfectly solved.

However, these are only the opinions of the courtiers after all, and the real decision is still in the hands of Li Er.

Everyone's eyes were on Li Er.

Li Er smiled and nodded, and said, "Xue Li is indeed very good, but after all, he is too young and lacks battlefield experience, so this matter should be put aside for the time being." ”

"He's able to get into the options, but he doesn't necessarily end up being a pioneer."

This is Li Er's final decision.

Zhang Yi was not discouraged, and Xue Li was even more undiscouraged.

In fact, Xue Li never thought that he would become the vanguard of the Eastern Expeditionary Army at the beginning, after all, age and experience are all here, he only longs to become a young general to accompany the army, and then accumulate military merits in battle, this is his original idea.

And since you can get into the sight of so many people and let them know themselves, it will be much easier to promote them in the future.

Xue Li knew that everything had to be done slowly, and rushing for quick success would be counterproductive.

Still, he was grateful to the man who gave him the opportunity to stand here.

That's his Bole, Jingyang County Bo, Zhang Yi.
