In the big tent.
"Two generals, hard work along the way!"
After the two saw Li Ke, they couldn't help but look at each other. Three months ago, Li Ke seemed relatively easy-going in Chang'an City, and he didn't have the aura of a superior person.
I haven't seen him for a few months, but I didn't expect that Li Ke at this moment is full of murderous aura, and he is not angry but is proud of himself. Looking at Li Ke's face again, he looks exactly like His Majesty when he was young.
"The general will pay homage to His Highness the King of Shu."
"You two generals, no need to be polite, please take a seat."
Then, Li Ke said to the others: "Step back, I and the two generals have something to say."
"yes……"
The rest of the guards, Mei Lan, Zhu Ju and others all withdrew from the big tent and stood guard around the big tent. Not even a mosquito could get in.
Seeing His Royal Highness the King of Shu being so serious, the two of them couldn't help but wonder. Logically speaking, the war in the northwest was going relatively smoothly. Could it be that things had changed?
"Your Highness, could it be that the war situation has changed? Please rest assured, Your Highness, I, Cheng Yaojin, am willing to serve as the vanguard for Your Highness."
"Yuchi Jingde is willing to serve His Highness."
Li Ke shook his head and continued: "There is no suspense about the destruction of Gaochang. It depends on whether we can expand the results. What I am worried about is whether Xue Yantuo will take the opportunity to go south and attack our Longyou area in the Tang Dynasty."
Cheng Yaojin's eyes widened and he roared: "Bijia Khan is tired of living. If he dares to attack the Tang Dynasty at this time, isn't he afraid that the Empress of the Tang Dynasty will settle the score?"
"Your Highness, this time we have brought three guards, totaling 50,000 men. They are all the best of the best. As long as Your Highness gives orders, we will dare to attack them first."
Li Ke knew that the loyalty of these two men was no problem, their military attainments definitely had their place, and their political talents were there, but very little.
According to the rules left by our ancestors, no matter who you attack, you must have a good reputation. Now that the Tang Dynasty has destroyed Tuyuhun, and now it is targeting Gaochang Kingdom, these two things are actively sent to seek death.
The right time, place and people were all favorable to the Tang Dynasty. M.biQuge.biZ
Even within the country, all the forces had nothing to say and unanimously spoke to the outside world.
But Xue Yantuo is different. He has not yet had any dissatisfaction with the Tang Dynasty, and it is the main force against the Western Turks. It is also involved with the remaining forces of the Eastern Turks, and even the Khitan, Bohai, Goguryeo, Mohe and other tribes in the east. It has a diversionary effect.
Once the Tang Dynasty used force against Xue Yantuo, the rest of the vassal states or tribes would be in a state of despair, and there would be no need for him to serve as the Heavenly Khan of his father.
But if it was Xue Yantuo who took the initiative to attack the Tang Dynasty for the Gaochang Kingdom, then the matter would be different.
"The two generals are brave enough to win the three armies. They are the mainstay of our Tang Dynasty. They are also my father's confidants. I am also very optimistic about their strength."
"If two generals are allowed to attack Xue Yantuo, I believe that with the strength of the two generals, they will definitely sweep across the entire grassland."
Cheng Yaojin touched his beard and laughed. The King of Shu could talk, which made him feel so comfortable.
Yuchi Jingde also smiled happily. Being praised by His Highness, it seems that they do have the demeanor of famous generals.
"But this is too inefficient. It's already autumn, and in a month or two, Mobei will enter the ice and snow, which is very detrimental to us."
Cheng Yaojin slapped his thigh and shouted: "Yes, Your Highness, the last time we attacked the Eastern Turks, we suffered heavy losses in the heavy snow."
"Yes, once there is heavy snow in Mobei in winter and the mountains are closed, you will not be able to come out after walking in. This is very detrimental to us." Yuchi Jingde also said hurriedly.
"Ahem, cough, cough. Last night, I calculated with my fingers that Xue Yantuo was going to sneak attack our rear and prepare to cut off our supplies."
ah?
The two of them stared at Shu King Li Ke with their eyes widened. Is His Highness starting to figure it out again?
"So, I plan to let them catch the turtle in the jar without coming back."
"Where is Duke Lu?"
Cheng Yaojin trembled in fright, and quickly raised his hands and said: "The general is here!"
"You lead a guard, don't let anyone discover it, and rush on the road at night. After arriving in Ganzhou, enter Ganzhou City and wait for military orders."
"The last general takes command!"
"Gong E Guo..."
"The general is here!" Yuchi Jingde took a step forward and bowed in salute.
"You lead two guards, cross the Styx River under the cover of night, and head to the northern foot of Beishan Mountain. Find a place to set up camp, and send scouts to constantly monitor Xue Yantuo's movements."
"Once Xue Yantuo's army enters the territory of the Tang Dynasty, he will lead his army to encircle and catch turtles in the urn."
"If you can eat Xue Yantuo's power, I will take credit for your success."
The two of them had bright eyes. They thought they were going to fight a tough battle, but they didn't expect it to be an ambush battle. Ambush battles are good, this is what they are good at.
"I will definitely live up to His Highness."
"Okay, the two generals will set off immediately and make arrangements as soon as possible."
"I will set out tonight to completely destroy the Gaochang Kingdom..."
Just as he was about to leave, Cheng Yaojin suddenly remembered that he still had a burden with him!
He quickly bowed and said: "Your Highness, there is one more thing I want to report to you. Fang Yiai, the son of Zuopushe's family, was punished by Your Majesty for hoarding grain and grass in Chang'an City. He is not allowed to be an official or do business in this life..."
"Before Fang Xuanling set out at the end of his journey, he begged your majesty in Qu Palace, and your majesty agreed and allowed Fang Yiai to come and be a soldier by your side."
"I brought it to you."
Li Ke smiled. Princess Li Shuwan's letter mentioned this, saying that she was Fang Xuanling's wife. She came to the King of Shu to pay her a favor and asked Li Ke to take care of Fang Yiai.
"Okay, leave this person to me!"
A smile appeared on Li Ke's face. There is a way to heaven but you don't take it. If there is no door to hell, you break in.
Fang Yiai, you are guilty.
Cheng Yaojin also breathed a sigh of relief, damn, finally handed this guy over to the King of Shu.
That kind of person should be dealt with by people like King Shu.
After the two people came out of the tent, they sighed for a while. In fact, what they wanted most was to go to Gaochang Kingdom and follow the King of Shu to destroy the country.
The King of Shu once said that the famous generals of the Tang Dynasty should be ranked according to the number of countries they destroyed. Only one person who destroyed a country is the famous general of the Tang Dynasty.
Only by going to the Western Region can one person destroy a country. Because the country there is small, it is enough for one person to destroy a country with the elites they bring.
But now the King of Shu actually wants them to wait and see. What if Xue Yantuo doesn't come?
This time it was for nothing.
But His Royal Highness the King of Shu is the governor of Longyou, so they have to obey orders.
"Old Yuchi, let's go. It depends on God's will. I hope Xue Yantuo won't disappoint anyone."
Yuchi Jingde smiled and said: "I do believe in King Shu's judgment."
The two rode horses and left with their guards.
Fang Yiai cried and fainted outside the camp. He was very scared now and was about to see the living King of Hell.
He wouldn't really kill himself with a knife, would he?
Fang Yiai's eyes rolled around, "No, I have to save myself. Just be embarrassed, it's better than losing your life!"
As the saying goes, it is better to die than live.
I must survive, even if I am serving tea and water to that bitch Li Ke, I must return to Chang'an alive.
"Shuanzi, Quanfu, you must protect this young master. If something happens to him, my father will destroy your nine clans."
The dozen or so people following him lowered their heads and said nothing. His Highness the King of Shu wants you to die. Even if we all come, we can only die with you!
Mei Niang twisted her slender waist and came to Fang Yiai and others, and asked: "Who is Mr. Fang Yiai? Please follow me to see my Highness."
"The rest of you had better stay where you are, or else you'll be executed as a bandit."
"No, I don't want to see King Shu, I want to go home..."
Mei Niang stepped forward, grabbed Fang Yiai's collar, and carried him into the house. Seeing this, the guards around her did not dare to move, because they were surrounded by masters.
"help me……"
Fang Yiai's voice was so heartbreaking, but Mei Niang's strength was so great that she didn't even give him a chance to struggle.
