Li Guoxing, Minister of War of the Western Xia, said, "Your Majesty, I have heard that Dakan has created many secret weapons. Those weapons are extremely powerful, which is the main reason for our army's great defeat."

"If our army goes on an expedition again and cannot solve the enemy's secret weapons, it will probably be difficult to win." Li Guoxing felt inexplicable anxiety in his heart, which made him feel a certain concern. If the emperor ordered the expedition again and suffered the same ending, the Ministry of War would definitely not be able to escape the relationship and he would not be able to bear this responsibility.

So he told the emperor about the situation on the front line, just to let him think carefully and not to act impulsively. The reason for doing this was not to speak for anyone, but to consider himself.

In his position, he will do his own politics.

The emperor was defeated on the front line and was already dissatisfied with the Ministry of War.

If he did it again, he would be blamed.

"Secret weapon?" Li Yuanhao was stunned and looked at Li Guoxing in shock, a little confused.

Li Yuanhao is not sure, so it is normal. If he hadn't studied the reason for Tuoba Xiong's defeat, he wouldn't have known that Dakan could have such powerful weapons, which made him feel a little afraid of Dakan.

The ability to create weapons of great destruction without realizing it shows that the strength of the army that worked hard was not what he saw.

"Your Majesty, there are artillery and crossbow arrows..." Li Guoxing paused and told all the reports on the front line.

After hearing this, Li Yuanhao fell into silence.

After being silent for a long time, Li Yuanhao said, "Are all what you said true?"

It was not Li Yuanhao who had doubts. It was unbelievable at the first time who heard such words. If Dafa had such a powerful secret weapon, why would he be beaten to the point of being powerless by their Xixia at the beginning? No matter how you look at it, it obviously doesn't fit the common sense.m..

Li Guoxing whined, and he didn't want to believe it, but in fact, it was exactly that. The so-called Pingnan Army had endless weapons that defeated their elite Western Xia cavalry.

"Your Majesty, it's true." Li Guoxing replied confidently.

"The enemy's weapons can not only be used to siege the city, but also the effect of defending the city is incredible."

"If...we can have this weapon." Li Yuanhao's eyes gathered and he murmured to himself.

Then he asked, "Li Aiqing, if we have this secret weapon, wouldn't the military strength be able to go up to another level?"

"Emperor, if our army is equipped with such weapons, the army's strength will be the highest, but..."

Li Guoxing believes that if they can possess secret weapons such as the Ganjun, the military's strength will definitely be able to go to the next level. This is an unquestionable fact, otherwise the big move would not have regained the lost territory.

It's just that they don't.

"Can you send Xiaozuo to use such secret weapons..." Li Yuanhao thought of let Xiaozuo do it and secretly learn the secret weapons technology so that they could have the same weapon.

"Your Majesty, my detailed work in Dagan Capital has not discovered that Dagan has such weapons, so..." Li Guoxing twitched slightly, thinking to himself, Emperor, you really dare!

How could such a powerful weapon from the country be so easy to obtain?

They have installed so many spies in Dagan's capital, but today, they have never received any detailed information about Dagan's secret weapons. This shows how sufficient confidentiality work is for Dagan's. It is difficult to learn the technology secretly.

Li Yuanhao also realized this, and he could only say that his thoughts just now were simply too naive.

It is definitely a top secret for a big knight to have such weapons, and the hope of getting is slim and almost impossible.

Having said that, Li Yuanhao still launched a detailed work to build a capital city, so that they would get this secret weapon no matter how much the price they paid. As long as they have such a powerful weapon from the country, why should Li Yuanhao worry about his great cause?

Li Guoxing did not stop Li Yuanhao from doing this.

They have to do it whether it can be done or not. Even if it is only one in ten thousand chances, they have to try it.

"Your Majesty, do our army still have to send troops?" asked Tuoba Hong, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of War.

"What do you think about Li Aiqing?" Li Yuanhao did not answer, but looked at Li Guoxing, wanting to know what he thought.

In fact, Li Guoxing had already said before that, in terms of the current situation, it would be very unfavorable for them to have a big fight with the big fight.

After all, the weapon level should not be the same level. Starting a war lightly will only cause heavy losses to the soldiers on your side, and may not necessarily win. Why do you still have to give away the heads?

"Your Majesty, I think it is inappropriate to start a war." Sure enough, Li Guoxing still disagreed with the war in order not to take responsibility.

"But I think we still need to increase troops from Fengxiang and Qinzhou. After all, the two places were also a big fight twenty years ago. If the big fight took advantage of the victory, I am not satisfied with Jingzhao Prefecture and want to regain all the lost lands of Dakan in one fell swoop. Then the efforts our dynasty has made in these two places over the years will be wasted..."

Although Li Guoxing did not agree to the war, he proposed to increase troops from Fengxiang Prefecture and Qinzhou Prefecture, not for anything else, because these two places were big fights twenty years ago. If the army was not satisfied with regaining the Jingzhao Prefecture due to the previous war, and continued to send troops to recover the lost territory of the big fight, then these two places would definitely be attacked first, and the most urgent task is to beware of the enemy.

"ah?"

As soon as these words came out, the audience was stunned.

Li Guokui, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of War, asked, "Sir Shangshu, are you too cautious?"

He turned to Li Yuanhao, "Your Majesty, I think that the big dealer will never dare to provoke my Xixia Dynasty."

In his opinion, how could Dagan dare to attack Xixia? At most, he would be extremely happy to take back the lost ground that he had lost.

If they send troops to Fengxiang and Qinzhou, it would be a declaration of war on them, Xixia, and they would definitely not dare to do that.

The reason why Li Guokui is so sure is that his current strength cannot support Dakan. Beimang has always been eyeing Dakan and always wants to devour Dakan Pingle. With this strong enemy, Dakan can only fight hard, otherwise, he will be in danger of killing Dakan and killing him!

"Why is the Left Minister so sure?" Li Guoxing suddenly looked at Li Guokui, not understanding why he was so sure.

Li Guokui then expressed his thoughts.

When he finished speaking, the hall fell into deep thought.

Li Guokui's analysis was correct. Dagan only wanted to recover lost territory such as Jingzhao Prefecture and other people, and did not intend to attack Xixia.

This is the attitude of the court.

But it’s different when it comes to Lingyun. If he can’t get benefits from Beimang, it doesn’t mean he can’t do it in Xixia either.

What's more, after several consecutive battles, the Pingnan Army won consecutive victories, and the more courageous the battles became, and the morale reached an unprecedented high.

So Ling Yun thought, why not take this opportunity to continue sending troops?

There are two benefits to sending troops. One can shock the Xixia and prevent it from underestimating the big things. The other is to train troops. Only by experiencing the battlefield can real soldiers be honed.
