What made Li Guanqi very angry was that there were still different opinions in the court, and some thought that the Western Turkic army was just to plunder winter supplies and women, and since they had conquered Rouyuan City, they would not continue to move south, so there was no need to worry.

Some people say that General Cheng Guangzhi of Longyou Province is not incompetent, and he has repelled the invasion of the Western Turks many times before, and I believe that this time he will also drive away the Western Turkic army soon.

Some were even so scared that they would die, and directly suggested that His Majesty quickly send envoys to sue for peace.

"Enough!" When everyone was still arguing with each other in public and saying that the mother-in-law was reasonable, Li Guanqi angrily slapped the dragon book case, suddenly stood up, and said sharply: "When is it?" Do you still use my court as a vegetable market? Now that the Western Turks have invaded our borders, and hundreds of thousands of their compatriots and brothers and sisters have been captured as slaves, are you all indifferent? Is there still a face to make noise here? ”

Li Guanqi's sudden anger made the noisy court temporarily quiet, and it was only after a while that Qin Minzhong came out of class and said, "Your Majesty! It's not that the ministers are noisy, but now that the treasury is empty, the imperial court can no longer afford to send a large army to the border to support, so it can only hope that General Cheng Guangzhi can successfully repel the Turks! ”

Seeing that the head of his most important hundred officials actually said such ruthless and helpless words, Li Guanqi was angry, but he couldn't bear to put ugly words on this loyal minister who had worked hard for the sake of the great cadres.

Li Guanqi understood that what Qin Minzhong said was the truth, when he went west to quell the rebellion, he dispatched all the elite of the Beijing camp, and hundreds of thousands of troops went on a year-long expedition, although he successfully quelled Li Chen's rebellion, but it also drained the treasury, and now the imperial court is indeed unable to afford the action of the army.

However, after learning about the atrocities committed by the Western Turks in Rouyuan City, Li Guanqi could no longer sit in Jingshi.

"Good! Since no one is willing to go to Longyou to rescue. I've decided to go on a personal expedition again! Li Guanqi was speechless and endless, and dropped a bombshell in the crowd!

Sure enough, Li Guanqi's decision was immediately fiercely opposed by all the ministers, and a group of people who were full of poetry and books were quoted by the side, and the princes who were full of mouths said that they were saints, and they were talking about the sky. In fact, there is only one meaning, not to let Li Guanqi go.

As for Qin Minzhong, Dongfang Rui and Zhao Pu, the central ministers, they also disagreed with Li Guanqi's personal expedition, and they didn't say anything like "the son of a daughter can't sit down", because they knew that Li Guanqi had never been interested in the words of these so-called saints. They're just biting one to death - no money! Your Majesty wants to drive the expedition in person, no problem, the problem of money and food will have to be solved by your old man, and there is no silver in the treasury to buy grain and grass for the army anyway.

But if Li Guanqi could be threatened by them so easily, he would not be worthy of sitting on the dragon chair now. He said unhurriedly, "I know that the treasury is empty and cannot supply the army. Therefore, I only brought 3,000 cavalry guards to the rescue on this trip, and the supply of 3,000 people will not be impossible for the household department to take, right? ”

"Huh?" All the ministers looked at Li Guanqi in a daze with their jaws dropped. Your Majesty's brain isn't broken today, is it? The royal driver is on a personal expedition, with only 3,000 people?

After a little silence, the privy deputy envoy Xu Quan took the lead and said, "Your Majesty! With all due respect, the Western Turks dispatched an army of 150,000 this time. His Majesty only brought 3,000 people to the rescue, which ...... This battle is really unfought! The minister disagrees! ”

"You won't fight. So you are the privy deputy, I can fight, so I am the emperor! Li Guanqi laughed and said, "So, it doesn't work if you don't agree!" ”

"The minister doesn't agree either!" Qin Minzhong shook his gray beard, and said with excitement all over his body. "Your Majesty is in danger, how can you joke with your own life?"

"The minister disagrees either! 3,000 against 150,000 is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg! Zhao Pu also joined the opposition.

"You don't even have to move your brains, and you're playing this exciting trick with me again!" Li Guanqi said angrily, "Do you think my brain is broken? I'm sober. It's true that 3,000 men can't defeat 150,000 people, but do I only have 3,000? Cheng Guangzhi has an army of 100,000, I am the emperor, if I go to the front line, won't this 100,000 army be under my command? With 100,000 to 150,000, plus the location, people, and people, my chances of winning are still very good! ”

The ministers in the palace couldn't help but look at each other from the ground, too, oh, why did you forget this stubble? This time is different from the last counterinsurgency battle, now all the soldiers and horses in the world are loyal to His Majesty, but it is not that wherever he goes, the army is under his command? The three thousand cavalry guards are just acting as personal guards.

"How? What else do you have to say? If there is no other objection, then quickly prepare the food and grass supplies, and I will leave tomorrow! Li Guanqi saw that the faces of the ministers were already showing a loose expression, so he struck while the iron was hot.

Although everyone still thinks that Li Guanqi's royal driving expedition this time is unreliable, there is indeed no particularly strong objection. Although there are still some ministers who have repeatedly insisted that the emperor should not take the danger lightly, but as we all know, Li Guanqi has already been personally conquered once, and he will simply choose to ignore this reason.

Seeing that everyone's opposition was getting weaker and weaker, Qin Min and the central ministers exchanged glances with each other, and had no choice but to stand up and express their approval of Li Guanqi's personal expedition. Because they already know that they can't be persuaded at this time.

Li Guanqi said very lightly, what is available with 100,000 troops, you can fight with the Western Turks, in fact, Li Guanqi's real idea is not so, Cheng Guangzhi has 100,000 soldiers and horses under his command is true, but they are all distributed in various passes, facing the iron cavalry of the Western Turks, which pass does not dare or can draw troops.

In the final analysis, if Li Guanqi wants to go to the front line, the only people and horses he can really use are the 3,000 cavalry guards he brought.

Could it be that Li Guanqi is really crazy? Trying to defeat 150,000 with 3,000?

Of course, the answer is no, Li Guanqi knows very well, not to mention that with only the 3,000 people he brought, even the 100,000 soldiers and horses under Cheng Guangzhi can be used, and he may not be able to win the 150,000 iron cavalry of the Western Turks in the field.

Li Guanqi's real idea was to force the Western Turks to withdraw their troops on their own initiative, and the reason why he only brought 3,000 Xiao cavalry guards was because the Xiao cavalry guards were all cavalry, with good mobility, and could effectively play guerrilla tactics to constantly harass the Western Turkic army.

As long as they can be dragged down, once Zhao Zheng's side succeeds, Sharo Khan still has only one way to retreat in a hurry. (To be continued......)
