Tang Dynasty good father-in-law

Chapter 812 Bad news, Li Ji decides
Changan
Ever since the Gaochang incident came, even though Li Chengqian fell to the ground.

But what is interesting is that Chang'an did not interfere with Gaochang from the beginning to the end.

The reason is very simple, whether it is Li Shimin or many civil and military ministers, they all think that this matter is Li Chengqian's death.

It's not because of Gaochang's own strength, even though he lost [-] soldiers, he must be more cautious with other princes.

I won't be as reckless as before, so I still don't think there is any problem with taking Gaochang.

However, this matter does not mean that he has given up caring about Gao Chang. For example, Li Shimin now needs to know about Gao Chang's information every day.

"The fourth prince disappeared after entering Gaochang."

Especially the most recent piece of news made this emperor feel a little restless.

You must know that among all the sons, the most stable one is Qing Que, who did not expect to disappear after entering Gaochang.

If it is said that Li Shimin is not nervous, then there is no possibility at all. The previous son did not know how to solve it, so life must be difficult.

But now another son has a problem, and now Li Shimin has some regrets, and if he knew it earlier, he would not let Qingque out of Chang'an.

Now he seems to have forgotten that when Qingque had no restrictions on freedom, he dared to go anywhere.

Fortunately, Li Shimin didn't dare to tell the Guanyin servant girl about this, otherwise he didn't know what would happen.

The condition of Guanyin's maid is not very good. If she is sick, it may cause a series of reactions. Li Shimin does not want to gamble on this possibility.

In the past few days, many court ladies have been optimistic about Guanyin's maidservant, and even have to go there in person every day.

"Your Majesty, there is news from Gaochang!"

Just as Li Shimin's usual day was approaching nightfall, Li Junxian came in a hurry, with a look of anxiety on his face.

Even when Li Shimin saw Li Junxian like this, his heart skipped a beat, could something have happened again.

The emperor's complexion also gradually became a little stiff.

"whats the matter?!"

Li Shimin's deep voice sounded, but there was some anxiety in his words.

"Your Majesty, the soldiers led by the Sixth Prince attacked Gaochang King City and suffered heavy losses."

Li Junxian said with a wry smile on his face, he could already foresee His Majesty's next anger.

"Another idiot!"

Li Shimin's face was a little livid, but fortunately he held back this time, but he still said with a hint of anger.

Now Li Shimin couldn't help but feel a little disappointed with his son. When he was younger than them, he was already able to fight well.

How did it get to these sons, not to mention being good at fighting, and not even being able to defend one of them.

This time, it was still an upright attack, but Li Yin's words were still too simple, and he attacked the city directly.

I really thought that Gaochang was not prepared, not to mention that the troops were not equal, and Li Yin did not treat these soldiers well.

As a result, after more than half of the casualties, the soldiers were quickly defeated, which can be said to be no worse than Li Chengqian.

The two of them can say that half a catty is right. Fortunately, after the first experience, Li Shimin looked ugly, but he was not disturbed.

"Something unknown must have happened in Gaochang!"

Li Shimin couldn't help but judged that although he was not in Gaochang himself, the emperor, who had not low military attainments, still saw a lot.

Of course, these sons are also too stupid. Wouldn't they join forces? Even if it is a strong attack, with enough troops, it is enough to break the Gaochang King City.

It's a pity that the emperor still underestimated the thoughts of these sons. In front of the emperor, there is still no affection between brothers.

Even if Li Tai didn't have the heart to compete, he was still an object of vigilance. It can be said that it was more bloody than the competition between himself and his elder brother back then.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin also had a lot of wry smiles on his face, as if his idea was wrong from the beginning.

For a while, even this emperor couldn't help but fell into a kind of confusion, and Li Junxian also quietly withdrew from the imperial study.

Naturally, the commander of Baiqi knew that there was a change in Gaochang, but Baiqi's words were too late.

Before there, there were not many hundred cavalry forces at all, and it was impossible to investigate anything, only some information could be obtained.

Presumably this matter will soon spread throughout Chang'an, and another prince died in Gaochang.

In fact, when Li Shimin received the news, another person also received the news.

That is Li Ji who was appointed by Li Shimin as the logistics manager of Gaochang this time, and this British prince frowned even more at this time.

"This thing is really unusual."

Like the emperor far away in Chang'an, this battle-tested Duke also felt something was wrong.

It was the first time that Li Chengqian's rash advance led to the destruction of the entire army. This is understandable.

Even Li Ji has a lot of anger, and even more dissatisfaction with this prince.

This is ten thousand five soldiers, not some Chinese cabbage. If it were him, even if the entire Gaochang was defeated, the loss would not be so much.

It's a pity that His Majesty intends to test many princes this time, no matter how much dissatisfaction Li Ji has, he can only let it go first.

So he didn't make any moves, but let these princes continue to test.

But now Li Ji couldn't sit still, because nearly [-] soldiers fell in the land of Gaochang.

From the Taiyuan cavalry of Gaozu to the present, Datang has experienced many wars.

However, if [-] soldiers fell in a short period of time, it was very rare, and even if so many fell, the goal should have been achieved.

But now, not only has the goal not been achieved, but even the details of Gao Chang have not been clarified.

"Your Majesty sending these princes to the battlefield is simply nonsense!"

Li Ji murmured softly with an ugly expression on his face, with a trace of wordless anger in his words.

After all, as a member of the generals, he cherishes every soldier very much, not to mention that there are families behind these people.

"No, this time, no matter what His Majesty said, all the prince's troops must be withdrawn."

After this accident, the Duke finally made up his mind to participate in the battle of Gaochang.

Even if he disobeyed His Majesty's order, he would bring the remaining soldiers back safely instead of falling down again this time.

If these princes are allowed to lead troops down, then we don't know what will happen.

For example, there is no news about the fourth prince. Although this is good news, after all, if the five soldiers are killed, there will be no news.

But it also worried Li Ji, because this prince also didn't have any experience to speak of before.
