Chapter 315: Commander of the Eastern Crusade

Of course, this is not out of blind self-confidence, but Li Hong believes that with Li Xian's cleverness, he will not go so far.

You must know that once this matter is revealed, it will be a fatal blow to Li Xian, even if Li Xian is dizzy for a while, Li Hong believes that the mysterious strategist next to him will not let him do this.

And judging from the scene of Honglu Temple, this time's method is not like that of those secret guards, but if it weren't for Li Xian, who would dare to be so bold and have such a motive to assassinate Ashina Funian?

"Could it be a good show directed by the Turks themselves?"

Since Li Hong vetoed the possibility of Li Xian's command, everyone did not continue to entangle on this point, and after a pause, Dai Zhide frowned and said.

You know, if this matter is said to be of the greatest benefit to anyone, then I am afraid it must be the Turks, and now as soon as Ashina Fu Nian has an accident, the Turks immediately have a reason to stop the peace talks, and even the previously negotiated New Year's coins want to renegotiate.

Therefore, Dai Zhide's speculation cannot be said to be groundless.

It's just that this time it was Di Renjie who said softly.

"It shouldn't be, Dai Xiang never came to the scene in person, I don't know how dangerous the situation was at that time, although Ashina Funian is safe and sound now, but according to the imperial doctor, the wound is only an inch away from the heart, if it is slightly deviated, Ashina Funian will die on the spot, it can be seen that the assassin obviously wanted to put Ashina Funian to death, so this matter should not be Turkic planning!"

At this moment, even Dai Zhide's expression was a little confused.

If the truth is really as Di Renjie said, then it is really possible that this incident was not done by the Turks, after all, no one would risk their lives.

Otherwise, the price would be a bit too much!

But apart from the Turkic and Yongwang forces, is there anyone who doesn't want to see peace talks go smoothly?

"Master Dai, there is no need to worry about this matter for the time being, now Ashina Funian is still in a coma, the truth of the matter has yet to be verified, and those Turks are now very hostile to us, according to Gu's opinion, it is better to wait for Ashina Funian to wake up, and then start to investigate this matter!"

After thinking for a moment, Li Hong said in a deep voice.

The current situation, although it is very urgent, but they themselves can't mess up, no matter who the assassin is this time, I'm afraid only Ashina Fu Nian himself knows best.

"But in the past few days, the peace talks can't be suspended, Huaiying, you will let out the wind tomorrow, say that the peace talks are as usual, please continue the deliberations of the Ministry of Rites, in addition, send Ashdwin Fu back to Honglu Temple in advance, now the Turkic crowd is leaderless, although Ashdwin Fu is a little reckless, but as a Turkic minister, he can still maintain the situation!"

After pondering for a moment, Li Hong said lightly, which can be regarded as a temporary countermeasure.

Several people present looked at each other, but sighed and said yes.

In today's situation, there seems to be no better way.

"Your Highness, the old minister came today, and there is one more thing I want to hear His Highness's opinion!"

After a pause, Dai Zhide continued to speak.

Although the Turkic affairs were very important, they were actually not enough for him to run this trip specifically, and it was for another reason that he continued to run to the East Palace so late.

"Oh? Master Dai, please speak! ”

Seeing that Dai Zhide was so solemn, Li Hong's face also became serious, and he asked.

"Your Highness, now that preparations for the Eastern Expedition have begun, elite soldiers from all over the country have begun to be mobilized, and the heavy grain and grass of the military department have also been prepared.

But the position of the commander has been difficult to decide, just before today's court meeting, His Royal Highness King Yong sent someone to send the book to the political hall, and once again recommended General Xue Rengui as the commander, the old minister Guan His Majesty has already moved, so he came to ask His Highness's opinion! ”

Dai Zhide pondered for a moment and slowly spoke.

You must know that the reason why the Turkic affairs have been raised to such an important height is still on the major events of the Eastern Crusade, but now the preparations for the Eastern Crusade have begun in an orderly manner, but the position of the commander has not been decided for a long time, which has to be said to be a strange thing.

When he decided to go on an expedition to Goguryeo, Li Xian recommended Xue Rengui, but he had to give up because of the opposition of the court.

"Okay, this matter belongs to the military, shouldn't we ask the British public for a second decision?"

Hearing Dai Zhide's words, Zhang Wenqian frowned, and asked with a little doubt.

Indeed, the affairs of the army, no matter what, could not bypass the British Duke Li Ji, and when he was in the main hall, Li Hong used this reason to temporarily delay.

Unexpectedly, Dai Zhide shook his head slightly, and his face was a little ugly.

"It stands to reason that this should be the case, but for some reason, the British Duke has been closed for the past few days, and no one has been seen, even if it is His Majesty's will, the British Duke has shirked his serious illness and has not replied!

But seeing that this crusade is imminent, the matter of the coach can not be delayed any longer, even if the British public does not express his attitude, I am afraid that it should be decided in the next few days......"

Zhang Wenqian also fell silent all of a sudden, this situation was something he didn't expect.

You must know that Pei Xingjian is half of Li Ji's disciple and the heir to the military he focuses on cultivating.

And with Li Ji's prestige, basically as long as he is willing to speak, this matter is a foregone conclusion, and with the emperor's trust in the British duke, there will definitely be no other opinions.

But who knows, this time Li Ji will choose such an approach, although the British Duke is nominally sick at home, but in fact, everyone knows that he doesn't want to get involved in these things.

And if the British are unwilling to take a stand, then things will be complicated.

Nine times out of ten, I am afraid that the position of the commander of the Eastern Expedition will fall on Xue Rengui according to the emperor's will.

The two people in front of him were sad, but Li Hong was very calm, and after a pause, Li Hong's face asked with a little doubt.

"The two, with all due respect, Gu really doesn't understand, why are the two gentlemen so reluctant to let General Xue Rengui take charge of the handsome seal? Could it be that there is a truth in this that Gu doesn't know? ”

In fact, Li Hong has always been very confused, why Dai Zhide, Hao Chujun, and even Zhang Wenjun are so opposed to Xue Rengui's troops, you must know that Xue Rengui was a fierce general at the beginning, and everywhere he went, a Fang Tian painting halberd was unstoppable, and he was never defeated!

So no matter from which point of view, Dai Zhide should not be so opposed to this matter! (To be continued.) )
