After calming down, King Wu also understood what it meant, this is nothing more than Li Shimin can't lose that face, Li Xiang himself is ready to send troops to help, Li Shimin ruthlessly rejected Li Xiang, but it is not only Li Xiang who refuses, but also the survival of these tens of thousands of Tang soldiers on the grassland.

Chang'an City

General Li Jing has returned to Chang'an City, and he is still in charge of the military department as before, and at this moment General Li Jing is staying in a foreign house, and he can't go back to his home.

He knew that his house was full of family members of some old subordinates, and those people had just set off to inquire about the news, and the news of good news kept coming to Chang'an City, but now there was no victory at all, how could he tell them the news? Is it possible for someone in your family to die in battle? If that's the case, soon the entire Chang'an City will be in chaos.

General Li Jing has been honest all his life, and he won't let him lie, so he can only stay in the outer house, he is already on top with Li Shimin today, if you don't let Li Xiang's army go to the rescue, then you have to let Cheng Yanjin take the army on the Tuyuhun grassland, this is the most correct way.

Li Xiang's army is strong in combat, and the entire Tang Dynasty knows that as long as they go to the grassland, there is at least an 80% chance of winning, not only can they save our army, but also may complete the set goals of the imperial court, and maybe take down Xue Yantuo.

Of course, the emperor wants to save face and doesn't want to lower his head to beg Li Xiang, so it's okay to let Cheng Yanjin take the army on the Tuyuhun grassland over, but the emperor doesn't want to, just because those troops are also Li Xiang's old team, if they are allowed to go to the rescue, it is no different from begging Li Xiang, so the emperor pulled on the map for a while, and finally let the army from Shandong and Henan go to the rescue.

Looking at the court to send General Li Jing out, I really don't know what to say, the armies of these two provinces only have a cavalry of only 9,000 people, and the rest are all infantry, if you really let them go to the grassland, there is no other benefit except for increasing the number of casualties, could it be that the wise Li Shimin back then was already confused?

"Report to the general, Goguryeo is in a hurry."

When he heard the words of his subordinates, General Li Jing trembled with fright, but when he heard that it was Goguryeo, General Li Jing's eyes were puzzled, originally thought it was the twist and turn of King Wu's side, what rhythm did Goguryeo have? When I left, it was basically the world, although there were still some small thieves, but they couldn't set off any storms, at most it was just an ordinary greeting recital, how could it be considered urgent?

After opening the fold, General Li Jing understood what was going on, and the corners of his eyes were moist unconsciously, Li Xiang not only knew how to fight, but also didn't care about his own gains and losses, now he knew that there was a problem in Datang, people didn't want to splash sewage on their bodies, and people also wanted to hurry up and do the right thing first, if such a person can't become the master of Datang, then who can?

"Someone prepares a car to go to the palace."

As soon as General Li Jing said this, he instantly stopped his body, not that he couldn't walk, but he suddenly remembered another thing, this piece of music can't be handed over to Li Shimin in private, if it is handed over to Li Shimin in private, I'm afraid there will be changes.

General Li Jing thought of tomorrow's early dynasty, yes, it must be handed over to Li Shimin in the early dynasty, and he has to be in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, if Li Shimin still refuses at that time, then there may be problems with his prestige in this life, and Li Shimin, who cherishes feathers, will definitely not do this.

General Li Jing also knew that there might be some changes in the time of this night, but if he passed in a hurry now, he would definitely not have any good results, and with Li Shimin's temper, he would definitely play in front of him for a while, and the time of this night would pass.

Now the front line can't wait, only wait for tomorrow morning when the court will pass, and then several important ministers will exert pressure at the same time to get Li Shimin to agree to Li Xiang's proposal, so that the Tang army will have a glimmer of life, if this opportunity is missed, then King Wu may not be able to come back.

"Go to the eldest grandson's mansion."

At this time, General Li Jing can't avoid suspicion, and directly let people line up to go to the mansion of the eldest grandson Wuji, everyone knows that the two are the heads of civil and military officials, and it is said that there can be no contact in private, and even the two have to fight a little bit, which is what Li Shimin wants to see, but today's matter is related to the life and death of tens of thousands of people, and General Li Jing has to take a risk.

During the day, Fang Xuanling also proposed that he could directly transfer troops from Goguryeo, but Li Shimin did not speak, neither agreed nor disagreed, which left the hundred officials with a puzzled heart, even Fang Xuanling proposed it was useless, is it useful for others to bring it up?

In order not to let this be the case tomorrow morning, General Li Jing must take a risk, General Li Jing, who has never formed a gang, has to take this trip at this moment, maybe let the emperor's people know, but Li Shimin is also a wise man, he should know that his son and tens of thousands of troops are in trouble on the grassland, and the only way to rescue him is this.

That night, the undercurrent of Chang'an City surged, and several waves of black-clothed people went to the palace to report the news, Li Shimin sighed all night, and it was not until the morning of the next day that Li Shimin squinted a little for a while, and when he went to court, he had a dark circle under his eyes.

Things were similar to what Li Shimin expected, General Li Jing did not ventilate in advance, and this was the first time in decades that Li Xiang's recital was directly shaken out, and dozens of officials from the government and the opposition seconded it.

Li Shimin first scolded Li Xiang, and then approved Li Xiang's opinion, but when he looked at General Li Jing, there was a trace of indifference in his eyes, and General Li Jing also understood that this kind of thing can only happen this once.

When he was about to disperse, General Li Jing said that he went to Goguryeo and was unwell, and some things in the Yamen of the Ministry of War could no longer be handled, so he was ready to retire from old age and illness.

Li Shimin did not let General Li Jing say goodbye, but only gave him a three-month vacation, and let Wei Chi Jingde take on this errand first.

Everyone understands that from today onwards, it is no longer Li Jing's final say, even if Li Jing's health is better in three months, he will never continue to serve in the military department, and he may have to retire at home in the future......
