The soldiers who escaped and came back to report the news have made it very clear, and it couldn't be any clearer.
Three hundred and ninety thousand!
Three hundred and ninety thousand, versus twenty thousand.
This disparity in military strength...
Li Er couldn't even feel his heart beating at this moment.
What the hell...
Datang, I'm afraid something big is going to happen!
In the terrifying atmosphere, even Wei Zheng, Du Ruhui and others did not dare to speak easily, they were all waiting for Li Er to speak!
For a long time...
Li Ercai calmed down by relying on his temperament trained over many years of leading troops.
He looked at all the officials in the court with a dark face.
"Tell me, now that the situation is like this, do you guys... have any good strategies to deal with it?"
Li Er's voice trembled.
His voice was hoarse, and there was a faint emotion of fear reflected in it.
The Turkic army of 390,000 soldiers marched south.
This is the Tang Dynasty... no, even in the Western Han Dynasty, this is a terrifying scene that has never been seen before.
It can even be said that this is a terrifying situation that is unprecedented in the history of the Central Plains.
How to do how to do?
Not to mention the various bureaucrats, even Li Er himself led countless troops and faced many dangerous situations and didn't know what to do.
When we raised an army in the past, it failed... Anyway, there are so many rebels against the king, so why don't we just find someone to join us in?
But now that we are Turks, everything is different.
If you can't beat him, then you will have to be the sword's ghost.
Li Er finished speaking.
None of the officials below said a word.
There is no doubt that anyone with a little experience in officialdom knows that if you can come up with a solution at this time, you will definitely be able to achieve success in the future.
But everyone knows...
No matter how fragrant the hot potato is, not everyone can handle it.
What if the potato is not eaten, and if one of the teeth is burnt out, it will be a big disaster.
Didn’t you see that after Yiguan’s journey to the south, Zu Ti of the Eastern Jin Dynasty...
This is the creator of the idiom "Dancing upon hearing the chicken". He was the number one fierce man in the Jin Dynasty, but he did not overturn during the Northern Expedition.
Not to mention Wuhou or something like that.
The current Turkic army of 390,000 is probably no worse than Cao Wei's Tiger and Leopard Cavalry back then.
Who dares to bite this potato? That’s really...
The old man hanged himself and was tired of living!
then……
For a long time...
A long time passed.
There was still no sound in the entire palace.
No one dares to speak out, and no one can speak out.
Li Er's face was ashen and he murmured...
"Among the billions of ministers of the Tang Dynasty, none of them can stand up to the Turks..."
At this time, although all the officials under his Majesty's Majesty did not dare to speak, they were all exchanging glances crazily.
Fight? Escape? Surrender?
Escape, where can you escape? Surrender, will the Turks surrender again?
Bureaucrats from all walks of life are like a bunch of headless flies, all trying to see some consensus in the eyes of others - or in other words, do they always feel that they are stupid and have not thought of what others have thought of?...
But after looking around, I realized...
Well, I am a fool, but in fact everyone is also a fool...
Even Du Ruhui, Wei Zheng and others were all covered in cold sweat.
This situation is so exciting, 390,000 versus 20,000. I am so afraid that Zhuge will run away with only two words in his reincarnation.
Finished.
It’s finished!
At this moment, all the civil and military officials in the court, as well as Li Er himself, fell silent.
There were only two people, Xiao Yu and Pei Ji, whose faces were full of sadness, but the corners of their mouths had long been bent into silence.
The two exchanged glances from time to time, almost putting smiles on their faces.
Cool.
So cool...
Damn it, I haven’t been this happy this whole year!
I even estimate that from the beginning of Pangu to the present, no one has ever felt so happy.
Didn't you see Li Er's face?
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
What does it mean to be very happy?
This is so satisfying!
The two of them are completely in the mood of watching a show now.
Alas, aren't you Li Er awesome?
Why did you stretch your hips today?
Are you a strong general if you don’t have one? How come you don’t have any capable generals?
I just watched you dance, oh, just for fun...
The two of them were so happy that they almost flew up on the spot.
It's as if the whole person is immersed in pink bubbles...
Li Er took a deep breath, and then suddenly said,
"That's fine..."
"In that case, forget it. I will issue an edict today to summon all the soldiers and horses from all over the world to gather in Chang'an, King Qin!"
When Li Er said this, Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui immediately moved.
The two of them wanted to say this, but after considering many issues, they didn't say it out loud.
Just as he was about to speak, Pei Ji beside him suddenly spoke with a tragic look on his face.
"Your Majesty, I am afraid that the water from far away will not quench my thirst nearby!"
"Your Majesty, the price of food in Chang'an has increased recently. I'm afraid it will be difficult for these large armies to fight back!"
When Pei Ji said this, Li Er, who had finally regained some confidence, was stunned.
This...this is really a problem.
You must know that the Forbidden Army was out for a long time, and then stationed for nearly a month, which consumed a huge amount of food and grass.
If this happens, who knows what will happen? Then it will be really troublesome.
Li Eryi was stunned for a moment. Wouldn't this be a big trouble????
"Can we temporarily increase the levy..."
"Your Majesty, you must not do this!"
Pei Ji then shook his head again and said.
"Most of the weapons produced by the imperial court have been used. Even if we call on all the troops and horses, even if we have food and grass, we may not be enemies of the Turks."
"And... now your Majesty also knows that the Youyan Road has been known as the country of Youdu and fierce cavalry since ancient times, and the home of all Yan's sudden cavalry. Now that Youyan is suffering from a snowstorm, if Your Majesty wants to forcefully requisition food, wouldn't this be a rebellion by the government and the people?"
"The people of Youyan Land have always been brave and strong in martial arts. If they take the risk and join the Turks, that will be... Your Majesty, the consequences will be endless!"
The more Pei Ji talked, the happier he became, almost bursting with joy.
Seeing Li Er incompetent and furious, furious and incompetent, it was so happy.
I'm so happy eating ginseng fruit!
Hahahahaha!
But Pei Ji is not without vigilance, after all...
Li Er, this foolish king, is famous for his cruelty.
If he was so stupid that he directly forced us to conquer several of our famous families, then things would be very serious.
With such a special national crisis at hand, Li Erqiangzheng would probably have his muddy legs all over the ground clapping his hands and cheering, which would make things very troublesome.
So Pei Ji specifically mentioned it, let alone food and grass...
Hehe, even if you have weapons, Li Er is not enough!
And Pei Ji's words were almost heart-breaking every word, hitting Li Er's heart every word.
Li Er was completely numb now, damn...
We don’t have enough weapons, we don’t have enough food and grass, so why should we sit back and wait for death?
At this moment, Li Er was completely dumbfounded.
Something is going to happen, something is going to happen! This is it!
"Is it true that God will not bless the country???"
As if he was very satisfied with Li Er's fear, or not satisfied enough, then, Pei Ji handed over his hand again, giving Li Er a fatal blow...
