Xu Fenglei's meaning is very clear.
Your Majesty, if you are really blind, it will be fine. Can I take the trouble to point you to the head office?
Li Jing.
Choose him, choose him, choose him!
We can defeat the Turks and everything will be fine.
Understand?
"hehe……"
Li Shimin put his hands behind his hands and smiled,
"Without Xu Aiqing's recommendation, Li Jing has extremely high military qualities. How can I not use such a victorious general?"
He raised the booklet in his hand and said:
"Actually, our general Cheng Yaojin Cheng can compile such a gambling book, which shows that he is quite advanced."
"I will use all the popular candidates here!"
"Come on, read out the imperial edict!"
After giving the order, the eunuch beside him quickly opened the imperial edict and said loudly:
"Edict:"
"Li Jing, the Minister of the Ministry of War, is appointed as the general manager of the march to Dingxiang Road, and Zhang Gongjin, the acting governor of the state, is appointed as the deputy general manager! Move from Shuozhou!"
"Li Ji, the governor of Bingzhou, was appointed as the general manager of the march to Tongmo Road, and Qiu Xinggong was appointed as the deputy general manager. Move from the clouds!"
"Confess Zuo Wuwei General Chai Shao as the Chief of Marching on Jinhe Road, and appoint Wei Xiaojie, Governor of Youzhou, as Chief of Marching on Heng'an Road!"
"Feng Lingzhou Governor Li Daozong as the general manager of the Datong Road march, and Feng Yingzhou Governor Xue Wanche as the general manager of the Changwu Road March!"
The ministers looked shocked as they listened to these decrees.
If worshiping Xu Fenglei as commander just now sounded a bit childish, then this military deployment is serious.
A military map appeared in the minds of the generals.
With Dingxiang Road as the main army, Tongmo Road, Jinhe Road, Heng'an Road, Datong Road and Changwu Road are the flanks.
Six armies came out in full force!
His Majesty the Emperor's deployment is still the same as before, meticulous and sophisticated, and the level has not diminished at all!
While the ministers were thinking, the eunuch who delivered the decree preached again:
"Female the Crown Prince and Grand Master Xu Guogong Xu Fenglei, as the general of the auxiliary country, the general manager of Peking University, the commander-in-chief of 100,000 people, and control of the six armies!"
"Appreciate this!"
Six armies, one person in charge!
At this moment, after reciting the imperial edict, Xu Fenglei already had 100,000 soldiers in his hands, and was promoted to the number one general in the Tang Dynasty!
Although, he is still standing in the queue of civil servants at the moment...
"Your Majesty, I still feel..."
Xu Fenglei's face turned ugly and he cupped his hands.
"alright!"
But Li Shimin waved his hand and interrupted him directly, saying seriously,
"I know what you are going to say. Are you going to say that your abilities are limited and you are not competent?"
"Then let me tell you that it is precisely because this battle is so important that I chose you to be my commander-in-chief and lead the Sixth Army! In my opinion, you are the most stable and suitable candidate!"
"You can doubt yourself, but don't doubt my ability to see people, do you understand?"
Xu Fenglei: "..."
If you praise me like this, how can I refute you?
But I really don’t want to go to this war! Going to such a difficult place to fight, I might as well go back to Moyu Mountain...
Xu Fenglei saw that Li Er was just torturing him...
Li Jing and Li Ji were not needed, but he was forced to sit on the couch! Be that mascot!
"Pharmacist, pharmacist..."
Li Ji called Li Jing twice.
At this moment, Li Jing was still a little dazed.
There was also a bit of sadness in his heart.
As a popular player, he had high hopes for his defeat at this moment. It would be false to say that he is not disappointed.
I thought that taking command was a sure thing, but who would have thought that His Majesty would make such a move and pull out Xu Fenglei halfway!
what is this?
Li Jing couldn't figure it out for a while, and he was a bit confused.
It wasn't until Li Ji shouted several times in succession that he came back to his senses with a confused look on his face.
"Maogong, what did you say?" he responded.
"Your Majesty has made up his mind and has his own considerations. There is no need to be disappointed. Let's give thanks."
Li Ji whispered,
"Stop standing still."
Li Jing's heart moved.
"Your Majesty, please accept the order and thank me!"
Under the leadership of Li Ji, the two of them took the lead in bowing their heads.
"My ministers, please accept the order and thank me!"
The other generals were also full of energy and thanked the Holy Grace.
For them, being able to go on an expedition and perform meritorious service is a good thing. If the coach is not the coach, it has little to do with them, so they naturally take it very seriously.
And Yu Chigong's expression was a bit ugly.
"Why don't you choose me?"
He clenched his fists and said dissatisfiedly,
"I, Yuchi Gong, can fully exert my maximum combat power on the grassland! They all have a share, why don't I have a share!"
"Your Majesty, you are biased! You can't hide me!"
As he spoke, his voice became louder, causing the officials to look at him sideways.
Li Shimin's face turned cold.
"Why, who made the rule that you, Yuchi Gong, must go out to fight?"
He said unceremoniously,
"When I choose a general, I have my own considerations! Is this the place where you, Yuchi Gong, make so much noise in the Liangyi Palace?"
"In the palace, remember him with twenty sticks!"
If you have complaints, just complain in private.
This is a serious court meeting. Are you here to dissent from me?
This is undoubtedly contempt for the emperor's authority! Twenty sticks are considered light!
"Jingde, don't be sad."
Cheng Yaojin patted his shoulder and comforted him,
"Look, I wasn't chosen either...and now I'm a criminal."
"They go out to fight, and we brothers and sisters can just drink and take care of our children at home, hahaha..."
Yuchi Gong: "..."
"roll!"
His eyes widened.
What kind of comfort is this? The more I listen, the more depressed I become!
Ah, without a fight, I will be depressed!
"Grand Master, you cannot disobey your orders. Thank you."
Du Ruhui poked Xu Fenglei's waist and whispered.
Xu Fenglei pursed his lips, and finally had to sigh.
"minister."
He bowed his head to Li Shimin and said,
"Accept the decree, thank you!"
Seeing this, Li Shimin raised the corners of his mouth slightly and nodded.
"Listen clearly, your military prowess was evident to all during the Battle of Binzhou."
He praised,
"In terms of military strategy, you will definitely not lose to me! It's just that you don't have a chance to show it and prove it."
"This time, I will give you this opportunity! However, you must also listen to the advice of Li Jing and Li Ji. They can help you break through the obstacles and protect you!"
The reason why Li Er felt relieved was because he knew that Xu Fenglei was not a fool, and he had the double insurance of Li Jing and Li Ji.
I really don’t know how to lose!
"I know."
Xu Fenglei cupped his hands and said,
"But I also have a request."
Li Shimin looked relaxed and nodded.
"speak."
"I want to bring two generals who can be easily summoned by Tiance." Xu Fenglei said, "Yu Chigong and Cheng Zhijie are good at riding combat, and I have cooperated with them many times, and they have a tacit understanding. Therefore, I I want to take them both with me."
Yuchi Gong: "!!!"
Cheng Yaojin: "!!!"
Both of them turned their gazes to Xu Fenglei, their eyes sparkling.
Touched, so touched!
Woo woo woo...
Don't stop me, don't stop me! Grand Master, I love you and I want to be your godson!
"Well……"
Li Shimin pondered for a moment and responded,
"Can."
"However, you can only choose one of the two and take one with you."
"You choose."
Tiance's veteran general, can he be summoned easily?
These words made Li Shimin sensitive.
As an emperor, a born political animal, Li Er had almost no hesitation and naturally made the decision to "divide and divide."
Are you close to them? Do you want to take them with you for any good thing?
Okay, then you can only choose one. If you choose one, you will definitely offend the other.
Take your pick.
It's like two peaches killing three people.
"good."
Xu Fenglei didn't hesitate or bargain at all, and said to Yu Chigong and Cheng Yaojin,
"You two take a guess, whoever wins will be the one I take."
"Guess."
Li Shimin: "..."
Good guy.
If Gongsun Jie, Tian Kaijiang, and Guyezi used guessing to divide the peaches, then this famous conspiracy would probably not be passed down.
"Okay, come on!"
Yuchi Gong looked solemn and put on a posture.
"Pfft, pfft!"
Cheng Yaojin spat on his hands, rubbed them, and prepared himself.
Then:
"Five leaders! Six six six!"
"Seven clever tricks and eight horses!"
"Haha, drink! Oh no...I won! Hahaha..."
When Yuchi Gong's face showed a smile of victory, all the officials could not hold their nerve.
Treat Liangyi Palace as a restaurant and have a party, right?
"No, no!"
Cheng Yaojin looked remorseful and dissatisfied.
"I was negligent just now. Come again, two more! Win two out of three!"
"Come!"
When Yuchi Gong heard this, he snorted coldly and closed his palms.
"Put it down. If you lose, you lose. Don't make excuses."
He turned around gracefully, gave Cheng Yaojin a slap on the back of his head, looked at Xu Fenglei with a smile, and said flatteringly,
"Godfather, oh no... Taishi, I win."
Xu Fenglei rolled his eyes.
"Not serious!"
He waved his hand, turned to Li Shimin and said,
"Your Majesty, I will take Wei Chigong to the expedition."
Li Shimin: “@#￥%……&*@”
Why do you think this court is so smoky?
"...Okay!"
Although Li Er was a little displeased, Jun Wu joked and still nodded and said,
"Let Yuchi Gong serve as your general and go on the expedition together!"
"Thank you Lord for your kindness!" Yuchi Gong suddenly smiled and his eyebrows were almost higher than his hairline.
However, human beings' joys and sorrows are not the same.
Compared with his joy, Cheng Yaojin wanted to cut off his hand at this moment.
"You act stupidly at a critical moment, what's the use of you!"
He gritted his teeth and said,
"Damn it! It's okay to lose to others, how could you lose to Yu Chigong!"
"Hey, hey." Yu Chigong pushed Cheng Yaojin with his elbow, then pointed at his head and said deliberately, "Don't blame your hands. In fact, guessing relies on the brain, hahaha..."
Cheng Yaojin: "@#￥...&*@!!!"
Li Shimin couldn't stand it any longer and glanced at the eunuch at the foot of the steps.
"quiet!"
The eunuch's thin voice screamed, and silence returned to the hall.
"Without digressing, I will take Xu Fenglei as the commander-in-chief, and Li Jing and Li Ji as the deputy commanders."
Li Shimin looked at the generals and said solemnly,
"The rest of the generals respect the commander-in-chief and are controlled by the general manager!"
"This battle is of vital importance and is related to the fate of our country, the Tang Dynasty! If there is anyone in the army who is arrogant, disobedient, lazy and delayed, regardless of their status, they will be dealt with according to military law!"
The generals were shocked and nodded in agreement.
"General Manager!"
Li Shimin took a golden sword from the attendant, walked down the steps in person, and walked to Xu Fenglei.
"I'm here." Xu Fenglei responded.
"I said that you are going to fight on my behalf in this battle! Therefore, I also give you this Emperor's Sword!"
Li Shimin's tone was sonorous and powerful, he held out the Emperor's Sword with one hand and said,
"With this sword, you fight on my behalf; seeing this sword, it feels like I am here in person!"
"During the battle, if you hold this sword, you can temporarily do the emperor's business! Everything can be done easily!"
"Take the sword!"
Ministers: "?!"
The emperor was afraid that Xu Fenglei didn't have enough authority in the army, so he gave him more power!
This Emperor's Sword is equivalent to a heaven-defying buff. As long as you hold it, you will be the emperor in a certain field and within a certain period of time!
"yes."
Xu Fenglei took it with both hands and took the slightly heavy Emperor's Golden Sword into his hands.
Looking at this simple blade, but enchanted with the "invincible buff", his heart sank.
With great power comes great responsibility.
Without himself in history, Li Jing also won the war to destroy the country at a very small cost.
Now that I have myself, I can’t go back to the same old path, right? Doesn’t that really become a mascot?
To be honest, he is still a bit arrogant.
No matter what, you have to optimize something.
"General Manager, I want you to be my commander-in-chief. This was my decision last year."
Li Shimin patted Xu Fenglei's shoulder and said softly,
"I have high hopes for you."
Xu Fenglei nodded.
"Now that I have taken over this position, I will do my best to live up to His Majesty's trust."
He took a deep breath and raised his head to meet Li Shimin's eyes, which were full of determination.
Or don't answer.
Now that you’ve accepted it, do your best!
With such a personality, he has never been the one willing to mess up.
"good!"
Li Shimin said happily,
"What I've been waiting for is your words!"
"I believe that I will not misjudge the person, and I will wait for your triumphant return."
After saying that, he turned around and went up the steps and sat on the dragon chair again.
"The important matter has been decided. Dear friends, you must also be prepared for war."
Li Shimin said calmly,
"Retreat from the court."
Major military and state affairs are settled in one day.
One hundred thousand troops, ready to go, just waiting for orders!
After saying long live the mountain, Li Shimin left the Liangyi Palace, and the ministers also walked out of the palace one after another.
The place is still the same place, but the mood of many people is different.
"Gambling harms the body, gambling harms the body! It is not something a gentleman does..."
"Alas! Who knew that His Majesty would choose the Grand Master as the commander-in-chief? Every step of the way will make you wiser, so don't be too smart in the future!"
"Yes, everyone should be gentlemen and don't be the villains His Majesty calls you."
"If you lose your gambling money, you will lose it. I have a year's salary. My wife will definitely beat me to death when I go back. In two months, there will be no rice to cook..."
"Brother, please give me some help when the time comes..."
"..."
He frowned, sighed, and sighed as he walked.
Changsun Wuji and Xiao Yu walked outside the palace, but stopped motionless.
The two of them looked at the tall and long steps below, somewhat lost in thought.
"What are you doing?"
Fang Xuanling waved her hand and said,
"think about life?"
"I want to jump from here." Both of them said with dull eyes.
