Li Er would think this way not just on a whim, but as an emperor, he must view the world from this perspective.
Fundamentally speaking, if someone among a group of generals gets overturned, it is not a big problem. There are always so many who can fight, but if the next generation is all those who cannot fight, then...
Even if the Tang Dynasty gains such a large territory today, it will be destined to fall apart in the future. On the contrary... if this kid Cheng Chumo is really capable, then...
Thinking about it this way, Li Er still feels something is wrong!
Even if Cheng Chumo really has some clever tricks to use, what can this young man do? What Datang is currently facing is not a simple opponent, but the giant beast of Rome!
Facing an opponent of this level, what can Cheng Chumo do? This kid led hundreds of people to run away... Yes, this further proves that Li Xiaogong's guess is well-founded. This kid may really have some plan, but
Then again, what can hundreds of people do?
There are hundreds of thousands of troops in every minute... or heavily armed troops. Even if this trick is used, it will probably not be effective, right?...
Of course, Li Er did not doubt Cheng Yaojin's ability. If this guy teamed up with Li Jing and had 100,000 armor, he might really be able to severely damage the Romans' military strength, and what's more... the Tang Dynasty also had the artifact of a steam car!
With the magical effect of steam vehicles, it can certainly seriously hold back the main force of the Romans... And for this kind of battle, it is impossible for Cheng Yaojin not to deploy surprise troops. And at this time, if Cheng Chumo can make some noise, then
The effect should be really good, but the problem is that the quantity... is still too small.
Even if Cheng Yaojin could really fight the Romans head-on, with hundreds of people, he wouldn't even be able to carry out a surprise attack... It can even be guessed that if this kid really wants to make a surprise attack, then there is a high probability that it will be in vain.
Thinking about Li Xiaogong's words, Li Er became even more anxious——
Cheng Yaojin, an old guy who is too stupid to bet his life with the Romans, would be fine. If Cheng Chumo really plans to attack the Romans with his own troops, then he should be considered the most powerful among the young people in the Tang Dynasty.
The brave part.
This child was supposed to have a bright future, but in the end... this horse-riding horse was given away at the speed of light.
Seeing Li Er's face stiffened, Wei Zheng and others on the side were still thinking, but Li Xiaogong, who was sitting across from him, immediately became nervous and couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty, what's wrong? But I thought of some clever idea..."
"A clever idea?"
Li Er raised his eyes and glanced at Li Xiaogong, and then he snorted angrily and expressed his worries. When Li Xiaogong heard this, his face turned pale, then turned red again, and then turned white again...
...white turns blue. As the saying goes, it turns blue for a while...
Li Xiaogong was also embarrassed now. He had thought of many things and reported the valuable parts to Li Er. However, he did not expect that Li Er saw the problem comprehensively. This matter is indeed... not that simple.
After listening to Li Er's words, Li Xiaogong had a clear understanding in his heart and knew that what Li Er said was actually right.
Cheng Chumo does have a bright future, but if he brings hundreds of people to attack the camp, it will most likely be for nothing...
But in a second thought, Du Ruhui on the side suddenly said,
"It's still not possible. Although this kid Chu Mo doesn't have many people, it is said that there are many craftsmen among the hundreds of people... I think this kid might go to the frozen soil in Mobei to find abandoned steam cars.
Got it!"
When Du Ruhui said this, Li Er's eyes immediately changed...
This is really possible!
But thinking about it again, it's just "possible", but that's of no use. Because...
Even Li Er knows that among the craftsmen in Anbei City, not many are from Lingzhou College. Currently, the high-level and capable craftsmen are mostly either in the shipyard area of Hangzhou, or working on projects at Lingzhou College, or
He is busy with Datang's latest railway expansion plan.
But no matter which possibility it is, it can be determined that the craftsmen in Anbei Army Town are basically working on dirt roads and wild roads. They have to make swords and armors, repair and repair ox carts and carriages for transporting grain, and build watchtowers and arrow towers.
That's okay.
But asking these craftsmen to repair steam cars inevitably makes people think that this is simply whimsical...
Although these craftsmen are the same as the current soldiers of the Forbidden Army of the Tang Dynasty, they are basically the new generation of young people after the first year of Wude.
But after all, they still haven't studied in an institution like Lingzhou College. It's definitely impossible for these guys to repair those steam cars... If they can repair them, then this group of surprise soldiers should...
Thinking of this, Li Er's expression became more and more... No, it finally became extremely ugly. It can be said that... he just spoke with a dark face. "No."
"Not to mention that the craftsmen led by this boy are all young people from the countryside who have never learned the art of science in various colleges..." Li Er only said this part, and Li Xiaogong's face turned pale - this
I didn’t consider this section!
Not just Li Xiaogong, as soon as Li Er said these words, Wei Zhengfangxuanling, Du Ruhui, the faces of these three people also darkened instantly!
Because of what Li Er said about the situation of military personnel...
They are all important ministers of the Tang Dynasty, and as important ministers of the Tang Dynasty, they all know those situations!
If you think about it this way, if this kid Cheng Chumo really wants to rob a camp or something, he will most likely end up overturning the situation and get nothing!
The Romans were not vegetarians!
But Li Er's voice didn't stop and he continued to talk...
"Even if the craftsmen under this boy have really repaired those steam cars...have you forgotten that the Romans have already noticed the intentions of Cheng Zhijie's army and are preparing to inflict heavy damage on the Romans?"
When Li Er asked this question, the ministers around him didn't react and stared at him in a daze.
But then, Li Er's next sentence... they understood it instantly.
"Since the Romans must have come prepared, how could the Romans' central camp... be unprepared?"
This was said lightly, and Li Er did not use a harsh tone.
However, it was like a heavy burden was lifted down, and the expressions of all the ministers suddenly changed on the spot - if they did not run away alone, but brought hundreds of people with them, this meant that Cheng Chumo was not escaping from the battle, but planning to rob the camp.
, then... consider what Li Er said, that the Romans had anticipated Datang's actions.
It can almost be speculated that when the news of Cheng Chumo's death will be transmitted back to Chang'an...
Although Cheng Chumo is not a famous general yet, but...
At this juncture when a military crisis may break out at any time and the northwest of the Tang Dynasty is under serious military threat, if a young man like Cheng Chumo wants to lose his life, no matter what, it is so heavy!
The crisis is about to break out, and war is about to come!
