Chapter 326: The Way of the General

Immediately afterwards, Li Xuan said in a low voice:

"The map of Zeguo's entry into the war,

What a plan for the people, Le Qiao Su.

With the king's words, the marquis is sealed,

One will be successful, and ten thousand bones will wither.

It is rumored that the Great War is full of sorrow,

Strong troops from both sides of the strait came to rest.

Who says that Cangjiang is always fine,

Recently, there has been a long battle of blood. ”

"The rich waters have been drawn into the battle map, the people want to fetch firewood and cut grass and struggle to survive, please don't mention to me any more things about the marquis, a success, how many people's lives will be sacrificed, how many people will be for the success of a general, become a lot of bones. Legend has it that once a war starts, the gods will be worried, and the armies on both sides of the strait will fight each other for years and will never stop. Who said that Cangjiang is always peaceful? Recently, the water of the Cangjiang River has been mixed with blood and is rushing to flow first. ”

Hearing what Li Xuan said, Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty sat on the dragon chair in a daze, and said in an unusually low voice: "One will succeed in ten thousand bones, and one will succeed in ten thousand bones." King Yong'an, you are right, the war can no longer be fought as Li Jing planned, otherwise it will be my Tang people and Tang soldiers who will suffer. In the end, I, Li Tang Sheji, will also be implicated and fall into the danger of overturning. ”

The important ministers also echoed one after another: "Your Majesty is wise. The ministers begged Your Majesty not to let Li Jing, the commander of the Northern Expeditionary Army and the general of the auxiliary state, carry out any further military operations and implement his plan. Your Majesty still urgently summons Li Jing and the 400,000 Northern Expeditionary Army under his command to return to Chang'an City, the capital of the Tang Dynasty. ”

The Tang Emperor Li Shimin immediately agreed and issued an edict, and the ministers all shouted: "Your Majesty is Shengming, and you have the people in mind", only Zhang Hu was stunned in place, looking extremely depressed.

Li Shimin was also very proud, but after the complacency. Li Shimin frowned.

Li Xuan knew Li Shimin's inner worries, and now Li Jing has had a misunderstanding with Li Shimin and the Tang Dynasty, Li Jing is like a frightened bird, at this time Li Shimin issued an edict to Li Jing and the 400,000 Northern Expedition army led by Li Jing to return to Chang'an City, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, I am afraid that Li Jing will never dare to obey the edict.

Thinking about this, Li Xuan smiled slightly and said: "Your Majesty, when I saw General Zhang Hu Zhang today, it can be said that the truth has been revealed, and the truth has come out, so the misunderstanding between Your Majesty, the imperial court, and Li Jing, the commander of the Northern Expeditionary Army, should also be eliminated." Li Jing, commander of the Northern Expeditionary Army and general of the auxiliary state, did not object. It's just that His Majesty's heavenly power is too strong, and General Li Jing will be afraid and do such a foolish thing. I implore Your Majesty to pardon General Li Jing and relieve this impending disaster that could threaten the stability of the Tang Dynasty. ”

The ministers also seconded the proposal.

And the Tang Emperor Li Shimin looked suspiciously at Zhang Hu, the general of the Northern Expeditionary Army, who was kneeling in the middle of the main hall. Soldiers, treacherous ways. Li Shimin was still skeptical about Zhang Hu's words, and whether Li Jing, the commander of the Northern Expeditionary Army and the general of the auxiliary state, rebelled, the Tang Emperor Li Shimin was also uncertain in his heart, and could not fully trust what Zhang Hu said.

Thereupon. Li Shimin opened his mouth and said: "Everyone, Aiqing, even if I have the heart to pardon Li Jing, I am afraid that at this time, he Li Jing will not lead my Tang Dynasty 400,000 Northern Expedition army to return to Chang'an City, the capital of my Tang Dynasty." The stakes are hereby high. Let's discuss it tomorrow, all of you Aiqing will go back and think more, think about it, and I will think about it more. It's all gone. ”

The ministers got up one after another, bowed and saluted, and left the Taiji Palace one after another.

in the cloud. The camp of the Northern Expeditionary Army of the Tang Dynasty, the camp tent of Li Jing, the commander of the Northern Expeditionary Army and the general of the auxiliary country.

Li Jing wore a handsome helmet and armor, and sat on the handsome seat in the middle of the camp, with an extraordinary bearing and majestic style.

Li Ji, deputy commander of the Northern Expeditionary Army and champion general, and Su Dingfang, general of the Left Guard, sat on the left and right sides of Li Jing's head.

The atmosphere in the big tent was very depressing, everyone didn't expect that things would come to this point, the Northern Expeditionary Army of the Tang Dynasty was considered a rebellion by His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and now, it has reached the point where the imperial court controlled by His Majesty and the Northern Expeditionary Army controlled by Li Jing will start a civil war at any time and start a war.

After being silent for a long time, Li Jing said to Li Ji and Su Dingfang: "Now we are all people sitting on the same boat, and now this boat is about to sink. Although the commander is in charge of 400,000 elites of the Northern Expedition of the Tang Dynasty, His Majesty is the son of heaven of my Tang Dynasty after all, and he is the supreme ruler of my Tang people. Now the leaders of the three generations of my Tang Dynasty, I, Mao Gong (Li Ji's character), and Dingfang are all in this tent, and they are all on the opposite side of my Tang Emperor, so we can't all lose it.

Mao Gong, Dingfang, Ben Shuai is old, this year is nearly fifty years old, lose in, just pay in, pacify Bashu, pacify Jiangnan, pacify Huainan, pacify the entire southern Tang Dynasty, this life is enough, and the military exploits are enough, but you are still young, Mao Gong, you are just thirty this year, Dingfang is just eighteen, you can't lose it anyway, talent is rare, otherwise I Datang will not even have a person who can lead the army in the future and fight for the south and north of the Tang Dynasty, then it is really a disaster for my Datang. Mao Gong, after I lose it, you are the first person in my Datang military, the god of war in the Tang Dynasty, after Mao Gong, it is the fixed side, Datang has the two of you, fight for my Datang and deter the Quartet, so even if I lose it because of this matter, I can have no regrets. Although Ben Shuai will eventually be executed for treason by His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, but Ben Shuai is a Datang man after all, and Ben Shuai can't help but think more about the future of my Datang. ”

Li Jing's words made Li Ji ponder, and Su Dingfang got up and knelt on the ground, and said to Li Jing: "Teacher, Dingfang is deeply favored by his teacher, if there is no mentor to mention it, there will definitely be no Dingfang's achievements today, become a general, glorify the ancestors, Dingfang is willing to go to trouble with his teacher, and will never leave alone." ”

Li Jing stood up, slowly walked to Su Dingfang, and said to Su Dingfang with concern: "Dingfang, you have followed me for many years, what do you think is the most important thing for the general?" ”

Su Dingfang replied without thinking: "Yong." If there is no bravery, how can you expect the soldiers to use their lives? If a soldier does not have to die, how can he hope to win the war, win the victory, and gain glory? ”

Li Jing waved his hand and said, "No, Dingfang." Although you are brave, you still don't understand what is the most important thing for a general? ”

As he spoke, Li Jing looked at Li Ji, who had been thinking silently. (To be continued.) )
