In this torturous state... Li Er even realized another thing, which made people smile even more bitterly.
That is... there is a high probability that I won't even suffer for too long, because this military operation, which will probably involve the blood of the Romans, and who knows how much manpower and material resources will be used to fill the hole afterwards, will produce results soon, as the saying goes, wait and see.
Desirable…
This made Li Er's mouth twitch for a while, and he could not help but secretly curse Cheng Yaojin, an old man...
Mudd, no wonder my father had to deal with the heroes back then! These unscrupulous people really have a big temper.
but……
As a young man, Li Er's head turns faster. Since there is no big gap between his level of knowledge and Li Yuan's level, he naturally thinks more carefully... And Li Er understands in his heart that the disobedient and arrogant general is actually
We can only wait for them to die naturally and wait for time to replace them with another generation.
When the next generation of more mature candidates grows up, the military agenda can be more refined - but thinking about it now, Li Er couldn't help but sigh.
We still have to wait for the next generation to grow up... The next generation of the Tang Dynasty is led by guys like Cheng Chumo, isn't it? As a result...
It’s really a joy to see people from the Duke’s family being able to run away from battle...
Li Er was depressed all day that day. He collected dozens of copies of the memorial, and ended up reviewing a few, but couldn't read the rest. That night... Although he knew that this was a troubled time, he still
I couldn't help but leave the palace incognito, and took Wei Zheng and others out to drink together. However, this time it was definitely impossible to go far away to find Li Sheng, so I could only drink casually at the Lion House.
While drinking... Wei Zheng, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, they are all top strategists - all of them are at the level of Zhuge Liang and Wang Meng, but they all sighed and shook their heads, lamenting the way of China...
…Sure enough, it is not as easy to walk as everyone mistakenly thought before.
However, during the dinner, although Wei Zheng didn't speak much at first, after drinking for three rounds, Li Xiaogong suddenly made a surprising conjecture. As a military elite with real power and real personal prestige, it is of course impossible for this guy to
To stay in Chang'an, the system must be transferred to other places. However, recently in the Tang Dynasty... there are no local military affairs issues, especially issues that require generals of his level to give opinions in person... Therefore, he is still in Chang'an,
but……
As everyone knows, Li Xiaogong didn't have much free time. This was almost the last time he met Li Er and others in Chang'an during this period.
Originally...this dinner was kind of a farewell to Li Xiaogong. After all, if Cheng Yaojin really got into trouble, then this guy would definitely have a place in the Forbidden Army that Datang would need to join in to wipe his ass...
However, Li Xiaogong remained silent while drinking. When he suddenly spoke, others couldn't help but pay attention.
"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry too much."
"Oh?" Li Er has been suffering from Jade Syndrome in the past two days. It is the time when he needs to find some treacherous ministers to pick out some nice things to say to cure the disease, but... Li Er doesn't like flattery.
Maybe he was counting on this group of people, so he could only be depressed and worried. So when he heard Li Xiaogong's words at this moment, it was like listening to fairy music. He suddenly understood, but - Li Er didn't quite understand. Cheng Yaojin brought tens of thousands of people with him.
People bet their lives directly with the Romans, such a big bet...
How could I not be worried?
This made Li Er frown, subconsciously feeling that Li Xiaogong... wasn't going to speak for Cheng Yaojin.
The same was true for Wei Zheng, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling and others on the side. Although they were momentarily surprised at the beginning, they immediately realized that Li Xiaogong's words... the tone was wrong.
Especially for Li Er himself, this is very wrong!
Because Cheng Yaojin led his troops to gamble with his life, Li Er could praise it and not pursue it, because first of all, the general was outside. Secondly...
He is the emperor, and no one is allowed to refute what he decides. On a normal day, it would be okay for you to joke around and talk over drinks with me, a bastard emperor, but on such a big matter...
I can choose not to pursue it.
But you, a high-ranking general, are speaking for another high-ranking general who is clearly disobeying orders, and you are doing so in front of me. What does this mean?
Li Er frowned slightly, and Li Xiaogong's expression immediately changed - after all, General Tiance was still the strongest among the military elites of the Tang Dynasty, and he was probably only comparable to Li Sheng. Once he showed such an attitude, the feeling of oppression was indeed...
...but Li Xiaogong smiled bitterly, waved his hands quickly and said, "No, no, Your Majesty, this is not what I mean..."
"Ah? What does that mean...Do you have any way to deal with the matter in the north?"
The cold look on Li Er's frown disappeared in an instant, but he was still puzzled.
This Anbei City is two thousand miles away from the Chang'an Lion Tower in front of us - what else can this horse rider do, except watch Cheng Yaojin's performance? But as if he saw Li Er's thoughts, Li Xiaogong looked around with a tangled expression.
After a moment... then he said, "Weichen actually didn't come up with any plan to help Lao Cheng... However, Weichen felt that the matter might not be that serious."
"Although the current situation is fierce and the war is dangerous, and the war may have already begun, but the Tang Dynasty's imperial army has undergone many changes compared to the past... We have grenades and artillery..."
"This..." When Li Er heard this, his face suddenly became very unhappy, "Cousin, what you said is outrageous. You are not an amateur. Isn't this... isn't this a beautiful statement? From the Tang Dynasty.
It is true that the Imperial Guard had these things, but the Romans also..."
Apart from anything else, the Tang Dynasty was sure that the Romans really had grenades - because even through trade and merchant channels, it was known that this matter was an open matter in Rome - how could ordinary people in Rome do this?
Together we firmly believe that there is something in our country that no one has seen or heard of. This is not a Buddha or a Bodhisattva.
Therefore, Li Er was not happy when he heard Li Xiaogong's words. This was completely nonsense.
But Li Xiaogong smiled when he heard this, "Your Majesty, it's not just these... Don't we have steam cars in the Tang Dynasty again?"
"Steam train? This... this existed, but now... alas!"
Li Er didn't want to talk anymore as he talked. It's true that this horse-riding steam car is extremely powerful, but isn't it because of Cheng Yaojin's cunning operation? Now, isn't the power of this steam car difficult to use? The key point is
Because time is tight, the currently mass-produced steam vehicles will be trialled in the frozen soil of Mobei and then transferred there. Time...
