At dusk, the military tent discussion finally ended.

The generals left one by one with solemn faces, and each returned to the camp to deploy the troops and horses of each department.

Li Jing stayed outside the tent, looking at the sunset in the distance, his brows furrowed, and he sighed deeply.

Beside Li Jing, an adjutant general asked in a low voice, "General, do you really want to forcibly fight a decisive battle with the Turks?" ”

"The emperor has made it very clear that we can't retreat anymore, since the start of the war, we have been defeated repeatedly, and we have retreated hundreds of miles, and the emperor has not punished me for being benevolent."

"But we didn't lose too much in this defeat, the army didn't move at all, and there was still a fight. Others may not know, but the last general is well aware of the general's plan, which is to lure the enemy deep and lengthen the supply lines of the Turkic army. Seeing the critical time, it will not be long before the supply of the Turkic army will not be able to hold on, and when the Turkic army retreats, we will gather all our forces to pursue it, and we can defeat the Turkic army in one fell swoop. How can such a good opportunity be given up at this critical juncture? ”

"Retreat and retreat, the emperor can't wait."

"The general can play, the emperor will definitely be able to understand the general's distress."

Li Jing smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Even if the emperor can understand, the ministers of the court and the central government will not let it go, this holy decree is already the time that the emperor has withstood the pressure of the court and the central government to buy us, if there is no achievement within a month, I am afraid that the government and the opposition will be shaken." I was dismissed from the ministry for a small matter, because I was afraid that the generals who took over would not understand how to deal with the Turks, and would give away the 120,000 yuan that we had worked so hard to keep. At that time, the Tang Dynasty was really about to be in trouble. ”

"Those ministers don't understand the dangers of the war with the Turks at all, and they only know that they are stumbling on the generals behind their backs!"

Li Jing shook his head, looked at the sky, and suddenly thought of his granddaughter, so he asked, "Where are Shu Wang and her guards?" I saw them coming. ”

"General, it's not too early, or ......"

"Go now."

As soon as the words fell, two soldiers came from the camp tent and laughed at each other, so happy: "Have you heard?" The young lady and the white doctor have made a private agreement in the grassland for life. ”

"I heard that! It's a great event, and the young lady finally has someone she likes. That Doctor Bai can go deep into the grassland for the young lady, it can be seen that they are people who value love and righteousness, and these two people must be destined. ”

"Wait!" Li Jing stepped forward to stop the two.

When the two soldiers saw that it was the general, they were startled, and hurriedly bowed down and saluted: "See the general." ”

"What were you talking about?"

"This ......"

"Say!"

"The general is angry, we just heard a rumor from someone in the camp that Miss ...... Doctor Bai has made a lifelong ...... in the grassland."

"Nonsense! Pass the order, whoever dares to spread rumors in the barracks will be dealt with by military law! ”

"Yes, yes, yes! The villain didn't dare anymore. ”

The two soldiers were so frightened that they fled the scene.

Li Jing's face turned pale, he looked back at the deputy general, and said in a low voice: "Send me that Bai Song!" ”

A quarter of an hour later, Bai Song was taken into the military tent.

Li Jing was pacing back and forth in the camp, his face was pale and very ugly.

"See the General." Bai Song bowed.

Li Jing didn't speak, just stopped silently, looked at the table with a deep groan, and didn't know what he was thinking.

After a long while, Li Jing asked, "Do you know why General Ben recruited you in advance?" ”

"I don't know."

Li Jing slowly turned around and stared at Bai Song: "It was rumored in the army that you and Shu Wang had made a private agreement in the grassland for life, I don't know if there is such a thing?" ”

Bai Song frowned: "No." ”

Li Jing frowned when he heard this, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, no longer remained indifferent, and finally smiled at Bai Song: "That's good, come on, come on, Doctor Bai, please sit down." The officers and men in the army know that you will not hesitate to sacrifice your life and forget your death for the sake of comfort, and you will pursue it for thousands of miles, and it is inevitable that there will be some misunderstandings and rumors, but the general still believes in Dr. Bai's personality very much. Doctor Bai is also a smart person, and he knows that Shu Wang's identity is extraordinary, and he has his own prince and grandson to match him. ”

Bai Song listened, and did not sit down according to what Li Jing said.

Li Jing looked at Bai Song and didn't move, and asked: "Doctor Bai, ...... are you?"

Bai Song said solemnly: "Although Shu Wang and I have not decided for life, I really like it, you are Shu Wang's elder, I don't want to hide anything in front of Shu Wang's elders." I, Bai Song, will marry Shu Wang as my wife in this life. ”

As Bai Song's voice fell, Li Jing's face became gloomy at a speed visible to the naked eye, the smile on his face had stiffened, and he withdrew the gesture of please, but sat on his handsome seat without saying a word.

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

"Of course I do."

"Boy, don't think that if you saved General Ben and Shu Wang, you can think more about it! How can I, the descendants of Li Jing, marry a poor family?! Don't say let Shu Wang marry you, even if you want to join the Li family, you don't have that qualification! ”

"General, I only asked Shu Wang's intention in this matter, as long as she is willing, I will decide to marry. If the general has to block it, it will only hurt Shu Wang's respect for you. ”

"What a guts! Come on, drag this kid out to Ben and fight! ”

The two rushed in from outside and directly grabbed Bai Song.

"Hit? Then make a little effort, but let everyone see how their great generals treat the heroes. ”

"Boy, your little merit is a fart in front of the general! Drag it out and fight! ”

"General!" The adjutant general who came in said anxiously, "This move is inappropriate, now the morale of the army is still unstable, if you let the soldiers know that you have beaten the heroes, it will hurt the morale of the army even more." Seeing that a decisive battle with the Turks is about to be made, it can't be like this! ”

Li Jing slapped the table and got up, and said angrily: "Presumptuous, even you have to ......"

Before he finished speaking, Shu Wang came in, looked at the scene in front of him, and was a little stunned: "You guys...... What are you doing here? ”

Bai Song's face was indifferent, and he looked at Li Jing in the tent.

Li Jing relaxed his brows and gave a few soldiers a look.

The two let Bai Song go and left silently.

Li Shuwang seemed to realize something, walked to Bai Song's side, and looked at Bai Song carefully: "Are you okay?" ”

Bai Song smiled: "It's okay, I just told the general a few jokes, and the general was also joking with me." ”

Li Jing squeezed out a smile, nodded, and waved his hand: "A few people outside should also come in." ”

He Fangwei, Zhang Shuyuan and others came in one after another, all brothers along the way.

Only then did Li Jing officially meet with a few people, and a few people officially reported to the general the news they had found along the way.

Several people sat down in the camp, and the atmosphere was a little dull.

They were all generals under Li Jing, and He Fangshou was more restrained and did not speak.

Li Shuwang sat opposite Bai Song, seeing that Bai Song was frowning, and he was also anxious, as if he had guessed something.

But this is not the time to ask carefully, seeing that everyone is silent, Li Shuwang simply broke the dullness by himself.

"Bring someone in!"

A man was brought in from outside, and he was pressed in front of the tent.

This person is the Balu who brought him all the way back.

"Grandpa, this is the Turkic we captured."

Then, Li Shuwang told his grandfather how this person colluded with the Jieli tribe to deal with the Aji tribe, and learned about the situation in the Turkic rear from this person.

Li Jing was very satisfied when he heard this, and the stiffness on his face was finally relieved.

"Shu Wang, you did a great job! Judging from this news, our strategy has finally worked, and I believe that it will not be long before the rear of the Turks will be the first to stir up without us doing it ourselves. ”

"This is all the credit of Bai Song." Li Shuwang pointed at Bai Song with a smile.

Li Jing didn't respond, just kept smiling.

"And! Here is a letter detailing the evidence of the Zheng family's collusion with Jieli Khan, and this person is also willing to testify against the Zheng family. ”

Li Jing took the letter, frowned slightly, looked at the Turkic characters on it, and handed the letter to the deputy general.

The adjutant general saw it and looked horrified: "General, this is really ironclad evidence!" I didn't expect the Zheng family in Youzhou to be so bold? ! ”

"I know, I'll take this matter to the court later."

There was silence.

After a while, Li Jing yawned: "If there is nothing else to do, let's disperse." ”

"Grandpa, Bai Song still has something important to say." Shu Wang was a little anxious, and said in his heart, why didn't Bai Song talk about his plan? What the hell is this thing thinking?

"Oh? What else do you want? Li Jing finally set his eyes on Bai Song.

Bai Song had just lost his mind, but now he came back to his senses, thought about it, got up and said, "I have a strategy to break the Turks." ”

"Boy, this is a barracks, and you need to be careful with everything you say." The adjutant general reminded, "A little Langzhong dares to talk about military aircraft in vain? ”

"Grandpa, Bai Song is not an ordinary man, he is very capable."

Li Jing's brows furrowed even tighter, and he waved his hand: "You can tell me, how to break the enemy?" ”

Bai Song replied: "From now on, please ask the general to personally lead 3,000 elite people to raid Dingxiang on the mountain road, and you can break the Dingxiang Road in one fell swoop." Dingxiang Road is broken......"

"Presumptuous!" Li Jing shouted angrily and directly interrupted Bai Song, and the table was smashed.

Everyone was shocked and got up one after another.

Li Jing pointed at Bai Song: "Huangkou Xiaoer, it's just whimsical!" How can a mere 3,000 men break through this important road? And the lone army went deep behind enemy lines, do you want my Tang soldiers to die?! Come, ...... this person"

"Grandpa's anger!" Li Shuwang hurriedly walked out and knelt in front of Bai Song, "If Bai Song is not absolutely sure, he will not risk his death to speak." He ......"

Before Li Shuwang finished speaking, he was dragged up by Bai Song again and pulled her behind him: "Why do you need to kneel?" Leave it to me. ”

"General, it's about the rise and fall of the Tang Dynasty, please let go of your personal grievances. I didn't belong to the army, and this matter has nothing to do with me, just to end the war sooner and not make the people suffer again. Although this method involves danger, the general should also know the truth of seeking wealth and danger. It is precisely because everyone in the world knows that Dingxiang is important, and he is behind enemy lines. The enemy must have expected that the general would not be so bold as to attack Dingxiang directly.

In order to maintain the superiority of the front, the Turkic army has mobilized all its forces at this moment to stabilize the situation on the front. And when they are behind, it is empty, and this method is to think about what the enemy thinks, and kill a surprise. Moreover, we have a Turkic army in the rear to meet us. As long as the general dares to take this dangerous move, the Turkic rebellion will be quelled within three months. At that time, the general will be a hero of the ages, and his name will go down in history. ”
