Chapter 327: The So-Called Loyalty

Li Hao spread his hands and said with a mocking smile: "His Royal Highness the Seven Princes of your country has already done it so bluntly, how can I not know?" If he hadn't deliberately controlled the battle, our first confrontation would have been, none of the 40,000 party troops you led could escape into this Jinju City, do you believe it or not? ”

"What does the prince mean is that those siege equipment were deliberately put by the Seventh Prince?"

"That's right! These Seven Princes are also considered to be masters, they are thousands of miles away and strategize, and they know how many weapons I have to win, but they will not wipe out your entire army! I think he should be laying out, and he needs this Jinju City to buy him some time. The enemy of the enemy is a friend, and the king is willing to give him some time, so he deliberately slows down the pace of the siege! ”

"It's really embarrassing to think that our party and army fought bloody battles and died in the hands of their own people in the end!"

"This is war, this is politics!" Li Hao said without changing his face.

"To provoke a war to make the stunned bones lose the hearts of the people, to show his incompetence with defeat, to escape from the battle to show his lack of virtue and trustworthiness, without spending a single soldier, the plan of the Seven Princes has been completed. This guy is not as gentle as a rabbit as the world sees, but a jackal! ”

"So what's next? What will he do? ”

"The defeat at the front line can't completely crush the prestige that Stunned Le Gu has accumulated over the years, and in order to completely pull him down, it will take a complete fiasco! Judging from the current situation, the next battle should be the last battle of the stunned bones! ”

"Poor stunner, who has become a complete gambler under the plan of the Seven Princes, he has been pushed to the edge of the cliff, and he will definitely go all out to fight a beautiful turnaround battle with me! But I was stunned, I didn't pay attention to it at all. ”

The more he talked to Li Hao, the more Buller felt a chill in his heart, he didn't expect that the two strangers, who were thousands of miles away, could cooperate so tacitly and win this epic battle.

"Less than half a month after the Linghui Army first joined the party, it won successive battles, killing more than 40,000 people of our party's army and capturing more than 10,000 people. Why does the Seventh Prince trust you so much, he is not afraid that you will really be like a bamboo and swallow the entire party item into your mouth? ”

"He's naturally afraid, but even if he's afraid, what? Even if it can resist the offensive of the Linghui Army, the party only has a few years to live, and it is better to fight hard than to die slowly. Your Seven Princes are also gambling, betting on whether I dare to turn my face with Datang! ”

"What do you mean?"

"It's only been a few years since the birth of my Li family's kingdom, but its strength is developing rapidly, although I have a good relationship with the Tang King, how can the important ministers in the country allow me to develop freely? If I really embezzle the entire party item, Datang will definitely not let me sit big, and I will really tear my face at that time. ”

"Then the prince wants peace?"

"I will subdue the party item first, and then your seven princes will come out to negotiate peace with me instead of the party item, and call me a vassal state of the Li kingdom. In this way, the Li kingdom has not expanded, and its strength will not be improved, so on the one hand, it will block the mouths of the ministers of the Tang Dynasty, and it can also satisfy me, which is the best solution. ”

"Then in the end, the biggest beneficiary is still you, the prince!"

Li Hao raised his eyebrows slightly: "Don't you think that the general thinks that it is much better for the party to call my subject country more important than to be divided and annexed a few years later?" ”

"So, the prince is here to save my party?" Buller snorted coldly, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

Li Hao's face did not change: "You think too much, I'm not so noble!" Although my Li kingdom is strong, its territory is too small to be implemented. I need to expand my territory and army now to prepare for the next battle. I am not here to save you, but to conquer you! ”

"The prince really has the ambition to encompass heaven and earth, Buller admires! But since the prince has already calculated so clearly, why bother talking to me here? ”

"The general won't still be able to see it, will he? This king wants the general to submit to me, and from now on, he will be called the god general under my Li Hao! ”

"If that's the case, I'm afraid the prince has wasted his efforts!" Buhler got up and walked to the center of the hall with his back to Li Hao: "I, Buhler, was born in the army, and I have been loyal to the country in the southern and northern wars for decades. ”

"People are loyal to the two masters, and the good birds are perched on the trees, and the general can know the words of the saint and not blindly follow them!"

"Needless to say, I am now your captive, if you want to kill or listen to you, if you want me to surrender to you, it is impossible!"

"What a stubborn character!" Li Hao sighed, but did not give up: "But the general has always regarded himself as loyal, but he really understands what loyalty is?" ”

"The matter of being loyal to the king of food, the bloody battlefield, and the adherence to the territory, this is loyalty!"

"Fallacy!" Li Hao slapped the case and shouted: "I have a sentence I want to say, I don't know if the general may understand?" If you lose land, you will save people, and people and land will survive. If you lose people in the bottom of the land, you will lose people and land! Whether a country exists or not depends not on whether the emperor, the land, or the flag is there, but on the people of the country! As long as your party members and people still exist, even if you are displaced, you will be a party member wherever you go. If the party and the people are all dead, what is the use of leaving only one country? ”

"Your so-called loyalty is only loyalty to the royal family and the emperor, this is a small loyalty, not enough. Loyal to the people and the country, this is the great loyalty, worthy of being recited through the ages! General, I only want to ask you, do you love the emperor or the country? ”

"I ......"

Li Hao's words were like an enlightenment, and Buhler was speechless. He has been in the army since he was a child, and he has devoted himself to fighting for the country in the north and south, and has made great achievements. Can you ask yourself, is everything he has done for decades just for the sake of this rotten royal family?

No!

Buhler's single-minded wish is this party, this country, and the people of the party. The reason why he was not afraid of life and death and fought bravely was so that the people behind him could live and work in peace and contentment.

Li Hao saw the changes in Buhler and immediately added a fire.

"The general is quite popular in the party, and he is even more responsive in the army. If the general can submit to me, I will naturally fight this battle easily. But if the general should not ...... Let's put it this way, now that the Tang Dynasty has divided into three armies to confront the Turks, Tubo, and Khitans, I must win the party item in a period of time to knock the mountain and shock the tiger. So I don't have much time. ”

"This king does not consider himself a bad person, but he is by no means a good person in the true sense of the word. There is a bottom line to my kindness. Because there is still time, I have been extremely merciful in capturing Jinju. But if your party army resists too stubbornly in the battle that follows, I can't guarantee that I will still have the patience I have now! ”

"You're threatening me?" Buhler confronted Li Hao with an angry face.

Li Hao's face was calm, but his eyes were sharp and terrifying: "It can be understood in this way, otherwise do you think I am joking when I say that I will destroy the party in a month?" ”

BΓΌhler's face kept changing.

Faced with Li Hao head-to-head before, how powerful he and even Li Jiazhuang's siege equipment is, if he is really forced to be anxious, Li Hao can not care about the life or death of the people, and attack with iron and blood, at that time, how much disaster will the party and the people will encounter, it is terrifying to think about.

"How to choose, the general can decide! You don't have to be too burdened, maybe you Seven Princes have already calculated everything, and I can fight very comfortably in the next battle! ”

Li Hao smiled, smiling like a cunning fox.
