When Chen Shutai heard this, he didn't get angry but laughed.

"Lord Zhen'an, you are indeed a successful businessman who has made great contributions to my Datang. But this is a real war, not a business war that you are good at! Liangzhou is the main road of traffic between the Tang Dynasty and Shazhou, since ancient times, it has been a battleground for soldiers, and now Liangzhou has been captured, the road is blocked, and we have lost the opportunity. ”

"The Turks have garrisoned Liangzhou, and they are ready to fight a protracted war with us, even if we are overwhelmed by a large army, it will not be easy to retake Liangzhou. The Turks, on the other hand, can advance or retreat, and asking has the upper hand. If we raise an army, we will record the Turks, and the people in the sandbanks will be slaughtered. ”

"Even if we have the upper hand on the frontal battlefield, the Turks can retreat to the steppe at any time and flee completely. Where are we going to hunt down these brutes? At that time, not only will the people of Shazhou die innumerable, but our Datang Guowei will also be completely lost, can you afford this responsibility? ”

The words he said were so accurate that they were approved by a kind of minister. began to ridicule Li Hao for not knowing how to use troops and not seeing the situation clearly.

Li Shimin saw that Li Hao was at a disadvantage, and he was also a scoundrel in his heart. Why didn't he want to teach the Turkic barbarians a hard lesson? It's no wonder that the Turks came too suddenly this time, and they captured such an important transportation artery as Liangzhou with lightning speed.

The control of the war was held by the Turks, and the choice of war or not to fight was always in their hands, and the form of the Tang Dynasty was quite passive.

If the attack fails to win a big victory, then Datang's prestige will be completely lost.

Without the opinions of the ministers, even Li Shimin was a little discouraged.

But Li Hao still sneered without backing down: "Then I want to ask you, when the Sui Dynasty dominated the Central Plains, why did the emperor dare to rebel?" Isn't it as difficult to overthrow a dynasty as it is to overthrow a mere hundred thousand Turkic barbarian soldiers? At that time, you dared to fight back, why do you want to bow your head today? ”

"This time is different from the past, King Zhen'an, you are young and vigorous, you can't understand this situation!" Chen Shutai snorted coldly and ignored Li Hao's rebuttal.

This is, among the ministers, the sixth prince Li Su is also among them, and he is extremely happy when he sees Li Hao deflated.

"Aren't you usually very imposing? Now facing a big war, it is not difficult to disobey the public opinion, a person's power is limited after all, how can my father let you do anything wrong in such a big right and wrong! ”

"Sixth Prince, this is our chance!" Li Bufan whispered in Li Su's ear.

"What do you mean?"

Li Bufan sneered: "Half a year has arrived!" He himself said that he would build the Linghui Army into a division of tigers and wolves, and war is the best way to judge the strength of a team! ”

Li Su suddenly realized, and couldn't help but give Li Bufan a thumbs up. Sure enough, he is the calmest one!

Obviously, Li Hao has also been suppressed by the opinions of the ministers, and even Li Shimin did not continue to speak for him this time, but Li Bufan actually thought of a more ruthless way under this kind of victory.

The virtue of the Linghui Army, who in Datang does not know and people do not know? It is already difficult to train these ruffians into a regular army, let alone train them into a division of tigers and wolves! Those guys probably had to pee their pants in fear as soon as they went to war. Now that the Turks are on the border, isn't it the time for the Linghui Army to go abroad?

Thinking of this, Li Su immediately stepped forward: "Father, the son has something to do!" ”

"What?" Li Shimin frowned and asked.

Since the last time Li Su and Li Hao worked against each other, Li Shimin has been very annoyed with this son. Now the Turkic offense is already a headache, and he still comes out to do things, which is really not eyesight.

But Li Su was indulging in the pleasure of succeeding in the treacherous plan at the moment, and he didn't notice his father's face at all, and said loudly: "The prince of Zhen'an has created many miracles in the past few years, which are obvious to everyone, since he is so confident, he must have a chance of winning this battle, why don't we believe in the prince this time and let him go." ”

This sentence startled Cheng Yanjin, and hurriedly dissuaded:

"The Six Princes can't talk nonsense! The prince has just commanded the army for less than half a year, how can he be allowed to go to the battlefield! ”

"Lu Guogong is right! War is not child's play, and it is impossible to go to war casually. ”

"Even if the prince is now the commander of the Linghui army, he only has less than 10,000 troops, how can he compete with the Turkic army of 100,000!"

"The minister thinks that Lord Chen's words are reasonable, it is better to negotiate peace with the Turks first, and wait for us to prepare our troops and take revenge!"

Even a rough person like Cheng Biting Jin saw Li Hao's plan, how could the rest of the people who were friends with Li Hao not see it? Li Hao had just accepted the mess of the Linghui Army for less than half a year, how could he directly let him lead his troops to the battlefield and fight against the Turkic barbarians?

Once defeated, Li Hao's bet of training the Linghui Army into a tiger and wolf division within half a year can be regarded as a loss. At that time, Li Hao's prestige will be discredited, and the strategy they have been planning for several years will be completely bankrupt.

Unexpectedly, when Li Hao heard this, he became happy, he stepped forward and hugged his fist at Li Shimin and said: "Your Majesty the Emperor, what the six princes said is very true, half a year ago I said that I would train the Linghui Army into a division of tigers and wolves, and now that the Turks are on the side, it is the time for the Linghui Army to hand in the answer sheet!" I beg Your Majesty to give an order to let this king lead the Linghui army to the battlefield, and if he does not win, he will be willing to be punished! ”

Cheng Yanjin and the others sighed in their hearts, feeling that this time Li Hao was completely finished. How could such a smart person fall for Li Su's tricks?

Li Shimin also looked embarrassed: "King Zhen'an, our original period was half a year, but now it has only been five months, and the time has not yet come, so it is better to think about this matter in the long run!" ”

"I have made up my mind, please give your Majesty a decree! Li Hao is willing to make a military order, undefeated Turks, and willing to be punished! ”

Seeing Li Hao's insistence, Chen Shutai's mood at the moment also became happy. Originally, I just wanted to make this war a big thing, but I didn't expect that there would be an unexpected gain.

Now that the situation between the DPRK and China is turbulent, the bureaucratic system that was originally unbreakable has become chaotic because of Li Hao's chaotic incursions, and many things cannot be pushed forward as smoothly as before. Li Hao is a thorn in the side of many people, if he can be killed again, it will be a great thing for Chen Gongtai and Li Yu and their group.

Immediately, Chen Gongtai sighed: "Since the prince is so insistent, the lower officials have nothing to say, they can only wish the prince success and return triumphantly!" ”

"The prince is righteous and cloudy, and he is arrogant, I admire him! Please make an edict from the emperor, and let the prince prove his strength! ”

The ministers had no meaning at the moment, and began to push the boat down the river, pushing Li Hao to the focal point.

Now that the ministers have the same opinion, and Li Hao also insists on it, Li Shimin has no choice but to grit his teeth and say.

"Xuan! The Turkic barbarians invaded our borders, slaughtered the people, and plundered supplies. Its actions can be punished, and heaven is intolerable! Ordered Li Hao, the king of Zhen'an, to lead the troops of the Celestial Empire, rush to Liangzhou, defeat the barbarians, and raise the divine might of the Celestial Empire! ”

"Holy Wisdom, Long live my emperor, long live long live!"

Chen Gongtai and the others shouted long live, and their hearts were already smiling.

Li Hao didn't care, his face was still full of a confident smile: "Xie Shengshang, this king will live up to his trust, vowing to kill the barbarians and retake Liangzhou!" ”
