The people in the slave hunting team are all people of the Tang Dynasty. Now they are detained by Goguryeo. As the governor of Dengzhou, Li Yan naturally cannot stand by death. What's more, he is the boss behind the slave hunting team. If something happens to him, the boss, who will listen to him in the future? Therefore, Li Yan will save people regardless of whether it is public or private.

However, if you want to save people, it is not an easy task. Since the other party has dispatched warships, it must be the Goguryeo Navy outside the Beisha City. Beisha City is a military city, built on the southern peak of Daheishan on the Liaodong Peninsula. The city walls stretch for dozens of miles and are surrounded by cliffs. There are tens of thousands of elite soldiers stationed in the city. It can be said that they can attack and retreat or defend. It is an extremely dangerous city. In the southeast of the city, there are 20,000 naval troops stationed. Although there is still a gap compared with the forces of Dengzhou City, they have a good position. Even if they have all the soldiers from Dengzhou, it will definitely be difficult to conquer Beisha City.

"Liu Lang, for the sake of the present, we can only use the 30,000 Tang naval troops stationed outside the city." Yan Bei thought for a long time, and finally came up with such a solution that was not a solution. In addition to the position of governor, Li Yan also served as the governor of Dengzhou, and had the power to control all the soldiers and horses in Dengzhou. However, the situation in Dengzhou was special. The elite soldiers stationed here were all those stationed in Goguryeo, each with their own general jurisdiction. Li Yan, the governor, could not command others at all.

Because we had to find a way to save people, all the teams under Li Yan came. Sima Sudingfang, who was in charge of military affairs, nodded when he heard Yan Bei's words, and said, "Your Highness, Yan Changshi said it well. Although the Beisha City opposite is a major city, we just want to save people. As long as we pull 30,000 naval troops to the city of Beisha, with the reputation of our Tang Dynasty, we can definitely force the other party to hand over the people."

Li Yan's face was unstable. As a prince outside, even if he was in charge of the commander-general, he usually stayed away from the army. The main reason was that he was afraid of the population, and the land of Dengzhou was more sensitive. The elites stationed here were all from the Tang Dynasty. His combat power was much stronger than ordinary soldiers. In order to avoid suspicion, Li Yan had never been to the military camp at all except when he came to Dengzhou.

"Damn it, don't worry, Su Sima, please order all your troops and go to the navy camp with me!" Although he could not command the navy, it was related to the lives of hundreds of people in the Tang Dynasty, and he would give it a try no matter what.

Hearing Li Yan's words, Su Dingfang immediately gave an order. In the blink of an eye, the escorts of the royal palace gathered together, and then he personally led the team to protect Li Yan and Yanbei to the naval army camp outside Dengzhou City. This place is actually a port. It is right next to the civil port, but there are some warships anchored here.

"The military camp is at the important place, the people come to stop!" The group of them rode to the military camp. They were still a long distance away from the gate, but were blocked by a team of patrolling soldiers loudly.

"I am the King of Qi Li Yan. If you have something to do, you have to see General Liu!" Li Yan also knew the rules of the military camp, so he stopped and shouted. The soldiers on patrol did not dare to be negligent and rushed to the camp to report. In a short while, a team of people wearing helmets and armor rushed out of the camp. The leader was General Liu, Liu, who was in charge of the navy.

"The last general will meet your highness!" Liu Juyi immediately came to Li Yan, then clasped his fists and saluted. Behind him were generals of all sizes in the army, and he also saluted Li Yan.

"Dear generals, don't be too polite! I came today to discuss with General Liu." Li Yan said anxiously.

"Oh? Then your highness quickly invites you in, let's talk in the hall!" Liu Ju saw Li Yan's face and felt that things might be extraordinary, so he hurriedly gave Li Yan and the others to the camp.

As Liu Ju entered the military camp, Li Yan immediately felt a murderous aura coming to his face. There were martial arts field of all sizes on both sides of the roads in the camp. Teams of soldiers were conducting different drills, either alone or in joint, while the warships in the distance were also conducting sea drills, and everything seemed so energetic.

If it were normal, Li Yan would definitely ask Liu Ju to take him to visit. Unfortunately, the time was wrong today, so he could only take a quick look, and then everyone entered the military camp hall together.

"General Liu, this is the thing..." As soon as Li Yan entered the hall, he immediately told the story in an impatient manner, and then said, "General Liu, those maritime merchants are the people of Dengzhou. They were actually detained by Goguryeo for no reason. It is unbearable. As a frontier garrison, the general naturally has the responsibility to defend the people. Li Yan came here today, hoping that the general should put the people first, cross the sea and threaten Goguryeo, so that they could release the detained people of the Tang Dynasty."

When Li Yan said this, he bowed to Liu Ju, obviously giving the other party enough.

"This..." After hearing Li Yan's passionate statement, Liu Ju hesitated for a while. Although he was in charge of the entire naval army, he was actually mainly responsible for the training of troops. He only had the power to dispatch naval army in certain emergency situations. But now only a few merchants have been detained, which does not meet the regulations on the transfer of troops at all. If he agreed to Li Yan, there would definitely be a charge of privately dispatching troops afterwards.

"General Liu, this is related to the lives of the people near the Tang Dynasty, but I can't hesitate!" Li Yan saw the other party hesitating and persuaded him again with an anxious look on his face.

"Your Highness, it's not that the last general is unwilling to send troops, but my power is limited. If there is no emergency, it's really hard to send troops!" Liu Ju refused with a difficult face. Although it is related to hundreds of lives, these people are all made from corpses and blood. They have always regarded human lives as mustard. Not to mention hundreds, even if there are thousands of people dead, he will not blink.

"Emergency? Human life is greater than heaven. These are hundreds of lives. Isn't it considered an emergency?" Li Yan asked loudly. His humanitarian sentiment in later generations began to take off, but he forgot that this was the Tang Dynasty, and that human life was not as valuable as later generations. In fact, Li Yan also forgot that some people in later generations were not worth much.

"Your Highness, the so-called emergency situation means that I can mobilize the army to fight when it endangers the safety of Dengzhou, such as the enemy attacking Dengzhou from the sea, or rebellion within Dengzhou, etc.." Although Liu Ju is a general, he has a good temper. When facing Li Yan's questioning, he looks like he is not angry.

Seeing the other party calmly and not taking human life seriously, Li Yan couldn't help but get angry and pointed at Liu Ju and scolded: "I'm a pity for your emergency. You garrisons eat me from Dengzhou and drink from Dengzhou. Now the people of Dengzhou are in trouble. You actually want to stand by and watch. Don't you feel ashamed?"

Li Yan's words were a little ruthless. Not only did he scold Liu Ju, but even the generals and officials of all sizes behind him were also scolded. Many people were scolded and blushed and looked down, and they were not afraid to look at Li Yan. There were also a few young and energetic people who were excited by Li Yan's words. They wanted General Liu to agree to Li Yan immediately so that they could kill the enemy and vent their feelings before they could feel comfortable. However, when Yan Bei, who came with Li Yan, heard Li Yan's words, his face immediately turned pale. He no longer had any hope for asking the navy to send troops.

"Your Highness, the supplies for our garrisons are allocated by the Ministry of War. As for where these supplies come from, it is not what the general should care about." The clay man is still three-pointed, not to mention that a general with a thousand troops in his hands was a bit angry when he heard Li Yan's scolding, so he also had a bone in his words.

"Bad Ministry of War, if you don't send troops today, believe it or not, I will stop your supplies on the spot. Then I will see if the building boats outside can also be converted into fishing boats?" Li Yan's temper also came up. Since the other party did not give him face today, he might as well make things worse. I am the prince, who am I afraid of?

"Your Highness, our Dengzhou naval army is related to the safety of the entire Shandong Peninsula and the Bohai Bay. If you insist on doing your own thing, the consequences will be extremely serious. Even if you are the prince, you will definitely not be able to afford to be guilty!" Liu Ju roared with some qi deficiency. Half of their army's supplies would have to be raised by Dengzhou Prefecture. If these are missing, they would really have to use warships to fish.

At the same time, Liu Ju also cursed in his heart. The rumors were all said that the King of Qi was polite, but why was the guy in front of him just one or two hundred? If anyone dared to say that King of Qi was chaotic in front of me, I would have to peel off his skin!

"Okay, wait for me, I will make you cut off your supplies!" Li Yan didn't expect that even this method would fail. He was a little stunned. With his temper, he really dared to stop the supplies of the navy, but if he really reached that point, the tiger shark that fell into the hands of Goguryeo would be finished.

"Hmph, please listen to the emperor!" Liu Ju was a little unbelievable that Li Yan dared to stop their supplies, so he was very stubborn in the end. What's more, he was just doing things according to the rules, and even if he made trouble for His Majesty, he would be right.

"Okay, okay! You're ruthless!" Li Yan angrily pointed at Liu Ju's nose, but there was no way to scooping the other party. The matter was broken, and he had just piled up his ruthless words. At this time, it was too late to recover, so he raised his foot and walked out. However, just as he walked to the door of the hall, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, which made him think of a more brilliant idea.

"General Liu, your navy army is unwilling to send troops, right? OK! Then I will ask someone to take me to Beisha City on a fishing boat, and then ask Goguryeo for people. If there is any danger in me, you can just wait to bear the thunderous anger of my father!" Li Yan finished speaking this almost rogue words, and immediately burst into laughter, and then walked out of the door leisurely. When Yan Bei and others behind him heard this, their eyes lit up first, and then showed a trace of laughter. Li Yan was going to scoop his own life and bet on his bet!
