Chapter 136: Bai Yueguang on the Road to the Emperor (39)
"I'm not here to quit." Li Yuqian seemed to have made some important decision, and solemnly told Lin Du: "Princess, Your Majesty is only afraid of arranging the formation. This laxative is not a particularly powerful medicine, it only takes four or five days to return to normal, before because the grain and grass still have enough to go back to Dayong Road, so the time is insufficient, and it can't be delayed for four or five days. But now His Majesty doesn't seem to be ready to leave the grain and grass on the road, this is a ruined boat. If the grain and grass on the road were not left, Dayong could hold on to the grassland for another ten days, and the soldier's body would have recovered long ago. ”
"Can Yujun Mo transfer grain and grass from the previous dynasty?" Lin Du had already thought about this matter, she felt that with her IQ, she would definitely not be able to adjust the food and grass, maybe Yu Jun Mo and Lu Jiajin were extremely smart.
"This is not true, I guess that His Majesty is preparing to take the grassland and directly rely on the grassland to supply grain and grass for the army." Li Yuqian still understands Yu Jun Mo's style of acting, an ambitious person like Yu Jun Mo, who has been planning for many years, will never be willing to return like this, he is very likely to be desperate.
"Will his army hold out until the end of the steppe?" Lin Du felt incredible, "Why is this person so conceited." ”
Li Yuqian touched his chin: "Princess, maybe not a few days ago, but now, the life and death of the Great Khan are unknown, and His Majesty is stirring up the relationship between the twelve tribes of the grassland, I'm afraid it's hanging." ”
Lin Du understood the reason why Yujun Mo raided the tooth tent, not only because he was unwilling to accept the conditions of the grassland peace, but also because he had other plans.
"Princess." Li Yuqian pursed his thin lips, "If you believe me, I am willing to set up a defensive formation for the grassland, and with the ability of the grassland soldiers and horses, it will not be a problem to defend it for more than ten days." ”
Lin Du didn't expect Li Yuqian to take the initiative to help the grassland, "General Li, doesn't this go against your insistence?" Are you loyal to Dayong, but you want to help us in the grassland? ”
Li Yuqian didn't know how to answer this question, and he hesitated for a long time.
Seeing that Li Yuqian was thinking, Lin Duan didn't bother him, and silently refilled another cup of milk tea for him.
After a long time, Lin Duan felt that the milk tea might be cold, and Li Yuqian spoke again: "Princess, it's true that I am loyal to Dayong, but I also support a nation's anti-aggression, and I don't want to see my life-saver forced to this step." Dayong is the aggressor. ”
There was another silence, and Li Yuqian seemed to be organizing the language: "Actually, princess, I sometimes don't understand why I want to start a war. When I joined the army, I only thought about protecting my family and defending the country, so that every inch of Dayong's land would not be bullied. However, I found that His Majesty had waged too many wars on his own initiative, and it seemed that the purpose was not to defend the territory against the enemy, but to take the initiative to attack and plunder the territory and wealth of others. ”
"Princess, you haven't seen what war really looks like. Those in power often see maps, sand tables, cold newspapers and figures. And I went step by step from the most ordinary soldier to the later position, and I have seen the most naked blood on the battlefield. The comrade-in-arms who had been gagging with you the night before was pierced through the chest by a spear the next day. He won't ever joke with me again for the rest of his life. Speaking of this, Li Yuqian's eyes were shining with tears.
His eyes were a little confused, and then he said, "So what are we fighting for?" I sometimes often wonder if Dayong and the grassland have always maintained their current state, non-aggression against each other, and their respective development is not good? Each of his people can live and work in peace and contentment. ”
Lin Du thought for a while: "The war is for reunification." Yu Jun Mo probably thought farther, he was afraid that in the future, if the strength of the grassland surpassed that of Dayong, and the balance between the two sides could not be maintained, then Dayong would be in danger, so it was better to swallow the grassland now. The unification of the world is an inevitable trend in history. A unified state and political power will be more conducive to economic development, and the people may be better off. In this world, some people will have interests, and if there are interests, there will be conflicts. A unified country has great advantages, then the emperor can focus on the governance of the country, and the people can develop well. ”
In fact, she is not sure, if many small countries are conquest each other, the final unification is indeed conducive to development, but Dayong has already unified the Central Plains, is it a large unified country, is the grassland so important to it?
Li Yuqian listened to Lin Duan's explanation and took a sip of cold milk tea, "Princess, maybe what you said makes sense." But I'm just a martial artist, I don't know so much, I just know that what I see is blood, it's killing, it's the loss of life. I don't like that. ”
"Then if you help us, there will be no killing?" Lin Du asked, she really wanted to understand Li Yuqian's thoughts at this moment, she didn't think about it so much, otherwise she shouldn't have asked this, she just wanted Li Yuqian to help the grassland.
Li Yuqian pulled out a smile, "What I hope is to end the war quickly, so what I helped you set up is also a defensive formation, not an offense." I will help you resist the invasion, but I don't want to turn against Dayong, many of them are the soldiers I once led. ”
Lin Du understood this man's thoughts.
Li Yuqian saw that Lin Duan didn't speak, and laughed at himself: "The princess probably thinks that I am a particularly contradictory person, maybe there is a little inconsistency between what is on the surface and what is sanctimonious, in fact, I also know that my ideas are hypocritical in the eyes of others, obviously I helped the grassland, and I still have to say that I care about Dayong." ”
"I didn't think about it that way." Lin Du explained: "I just admire the general, you are not a simple martial artist, you are a general who adheres to principles, loves the motherland, and loves peace. It's a great choice to be able to make in such a dilemma. If I'm in your place, I don't have a better way than you. ”
"The princess praised it." Li Yuqian drank the rest of the milk tea. The milk tea was very cold, but it made him feel a lot more comfortable, since Yujun Mo wanted to kill him, he had been in a state of self-doubt, he questioned his persistence, and he couldn't understand why he started a war. Today, Lin Du didn't say anything to him that he didn't understand, which made him feel a lot more comfortable.
Lin Du accompanied Li Yuqian to find Chalu to explain the matter.
Chalu also expressed his trust in the person his sister trusted, even if he was a Dayong, he was willing to believe him.
With Li Yuqian's help, Lin Duan was a lot more relieved, Li Yuqian was not a straw bag who came out all the way from the shadow of his family, if he didn't have real talent and real learning, could he become the first person in Dayong in just over ten years?
She has been taking care of the prairie sweat these days, and with the previous incident with Father Xiao, Lin Du doesn't want anyone to die because she is not good enough to do the task.
