However, Li Chengqian had already expected this.
From the moment he learned about this matter, he knew that Li Shimin would eventually leave it to him.
As for the reason, it's quite simple.
Li Shimin wanted to leave Li Chengqian another opportunity to make contributions before he abdicated.
Undeniable.
Li Chengqian followed the troops to the battlefield when he was eight years old, and began to lead the battle independently when he was a teenager.
At the age of twenty, he single-handedly commanded the troops of the two countries in the Western Turks to repel the arrogant Ansa Empire.
But who would despise his own merits?
And more importantly, as long as Li Chengqian can successfully put down the rebellion of Xue Yantuo and Gu Ligan.
Then it would be much smoother for Li Shimin to directly pass the throne to Li Chengqian.
Guessed Li Shimin's thoughts.
Li Chengqian naturally started to work hard.
Since from the beginning, he was destined to inherit the throne.
Then let nature take its course, use your fists and kicks to your heart's content, and use all your talents in that position.
And wait to return to the East Palace.
Li Chengqian immediately took action.
When it comes to playing civil affairs, Li Chengqian is really not good at it.
Because, from the beginning, he misplaced his skill points.
And it's still a serious one.
As a result, there are extremely few people under him who can engage in civil affairs.
But if you want to talk about military politics, Li Chengqian is not sleepy.
Nowadays, there are too many generals who are by his side and can stand alone.
The old ones include Li Ji, Li Daozong, Li Xiaogong, Cheng Yaojin and many others who came from the era of Li Yuan and Li Shimin.
There are also a large number of people such as Li Ke, Gao Zhixing, Cheng Hualiang, Duan Zan, Qin Huaiyu, Zhang Xiao, Xue Li and so on.
And the first time he returned to the East Palace.
Li Chengqian mobilized all these people to the East Palace.
Li Ji and others were the leader, and a group of young generals stood behind Li Ji and others, arranged in order according to seniority and official position.
And these people are not simple characters.
Seeing this situation on the field at this moment, I knew something big was going on.
I also know that it's time for me to take the stage.
To be honest, none of them are afraid of going to the battlefield.
Everyone had an unconcealable excitement on their faces.
After all, military generals can only come in handy during war years.
Similarly, only in the war years can they show their talents and get the opportunity to be promoted.
Li Chengqian looked around at the crowd.
Seeing everyone's energy, he nodded with satisfaction.
"Everyone has already guessed the purpose of calling everyone here today."
"Not long ago, news came from Mobei Road."
"Xue Yantuo and Gu Ligan joined forces and launched many attacks on our Mobei border, causing the people of our Mobei Road to live in dire straits."
"And Mobei Road is an integral part of our Datang territory."
"The people of Mobei are our compatriots who are connected by blood to the Tang Dynasty."
"Now, they are being bullied by foreigners. How can I, the son of the Tang Dynasty, sit idly by and ignore them?"
"And after discussing with my father, I decided to immediately rush to the aid of Mobei Road, expel foreign enemies, and avenge the dead and injured people of Mobei!"
Li Chengqian put one hand on the table, looked around, and said: "Everyone is a capable general of my Tang Dynasty, and they are also my selected candidates."
"And today I'm calling everyone here."
"I just want to discuss with you the next strategic deployment and march route."
"If anyone wants to quit, they can do so now!"
quit?
How can it be?
Many of them have not been on the battlefield for several years.
Especially Li Ji and other veterans, their eyes almost glowed green when they heard this.
