Back to Tang Dynasty to be Emperor

After the news of Li Ke's robbery in Mobei spread in Chang'an City, the people talked a lot.Many uninformed people went to the Chang'an government office to petition, demanding that the imperial court send troops to crusade against the Turks.There are also some scholars who have begun to gather in the book club. If Li Shimin made the decision to send troops to the rescue at the first time, it is estimated that they will go to the Xuanwu Gate to plead for Li Ke.

At the same time, Li Ke's song "Manjianghong" spread to the streets and alleys through the mouths of reading scholars.This poem is bold and majestic, expressing the author Li Ke's fearless heroism and sincere patriotism.He who was trapped in Mobei won a lot of popular support in Chang'an City.Especially scholars, when they read this poem by Li Ke, their hearts boil, as if they were riding an iron horse and fighting in Mobei.

Therefore, this poem reached the ears of Li Shimin in the palace in less than a day.Li Shimin recited Li Ke's plagiarized "Man Jianghong" softly: "I am angry, leaning on the railing, and the rain is resting. Looking up, looking up to the sky and screaming, the ambition is fierce. Thirty years of fame and dust, eight thousand miles of roads and moons. Don't wait , The young man's head is white, empty and sad! The shame of the Wei River has not yet snowed. The hatred of the courtiers, when will it be destroyed! Drive a long car and step through the gaps in Helan Mountain. Aspirations hungry for the meat of the Hulu, laughing and thirsty for the blood of the Huns. Waiting for the beginning, clean up the old mountains and rivers , facing the sky." Especially when he read, "The shame of the Wei River is still unresolved. The hatred of the courtiers, when will it be destroyed!" His body shook, and he thought of the innocence in Li Ke's eyes when Li Ke proposed to go to the Turks in the hall. The look of fearlessness, the domineering arrogance.At that time, he was shocked by his firm eyes and contempt for everything, so he decided to send Li Ke to Turkic.However, at this moment, he suddenly understood what his son wanted.

"The shame of the Weishui River has not yet snowed. The hatred of the courtiers, when will it be destroyed! Drive a long cart and step through the gaps in Helan Mountain. The ambition is to eat the meat of the Hulu while laughing and talking about drinking the blood of the Huns. Wait for the beginning, clean up the old mountains and rivers, and face the sky." He sang again Said, "Father understands you, you really did not disappoint Father."

Thinking of this, Li Shimin raised his eyes to look at the northern sky, and after a while, he said to himself again, "I see, Father really didn't know you had such an ambition." An imperceptible expression of determination.

"Wang De, how is the army gathering outside the city?" Li Shimin asked in a deep voice.

"General Changsun came to report just now, and we can leave at noon." Wang De paused and asked softly, "The emperor really wants to conquer Mobei himself?"

"My son was brutally intercepted and killed by the Turks in Mobei, can I just sit in the palace of Chang'an City and ignore it?" Li Shimin glanced at Wang De displeased.Wang De suddenly felt a burst of coldness on his body, and couldn't help shivering, "I know I'm wrong, and I ask the emperor to punish me."

"Go down!" Li Shimin waved his hand.

"No..." Wang De bowed out of the Liangyi Hall, and Wang De found himself in a cold sweat when he left the Liangyi Hall.He served Li Shimin all the year round, and it was the first time he noticed that the emperor behaved so dignifiedly today.Could it be...?When Wang De thought of this, he didn't dare to think about it.Because, if this matter is really as expected, then the Tang court will experience bloodshed again.The old slave didn't know anything, didn't know anything.Wang De said to himself, and then glanced at the direction of Liangyi Hall, the old body disappeared in his sigh.

In fact, the second day after Su Dingfang led the cavalry to leave, the army outside the city was assembled.It has become an indisputable fact that Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty personally conquered the Turks for his son.However, the emperor's personal conquest is a major event, so how can it be a trifling matter.Because after the emperor's personal conquest, the country's major affairs have to be handled by someone, who should be dealt with?The prince is young, not yet old enough to perform the crown ceremony, so he cannot handle the government affairs.Others simply do not have the qualifications.Besides, the Tang Dynasty had just experienced the Xuanwumen coup, and the Turkic invasion stabilized.Therefore, in the end, under the persuasion of Fang Xuanling and others, Li Shimin finally stopped his personal conquest and handed over the command of the army to Zhang Liang, the general of the left guard.

Li Shimin looked at Li Liang's army in military uniform at Xuanwu Gate, and prayed silently in his heart, hoping that Li Ke would return early.He couldn't rescue Li Ke himself, for him he had lost his word in front of Concubine Yang.Therefore, whether Li Liang's army allowed Li Ke to return earlier was his compensation for Concubine Yang's slip of the tongue.At the same time, he also had high expectations for Su Dingfang in his heart, just like when Su Dingfang asked him to send troops to Mobei to rescue Li Ke, he agreed without hesitation.

The cold in Chang'an is incomparable to the cold in Mobei. Su Dingfang, who left Suzhou five days later, found that the soldiers behind him had difficulty adapting to the weather in Mobei.

Because it would take six days for the court's decree to be conveyed to Li Jing with a fast horse.Therefore, Su Dingfang, who left Suzhou in five days, was one day earlier than Li Jing and the others.

At this time, Su Dingfang looked at the endless scenery of the northern country covered by residual snow, and he was not in the mood to appreciate it at all.He said to Liu Rengui beside him, "Regularly, we will divide our troops here into two groups. If you are small in number, look for His Highness in the direction of Xifeng Prefecture. According to my estimation, if His Highness can defeat the Turkic cavalry, he may I will go back to the west and return to Chang'an by taking the road from Shuofang Lingzhou. As for me, I will follow this road all the way to the desert. If His Highness is still stuck on the way back to Chang'an from Yinshan, then I will definitely make him safe Get out."

"Okay," Liu Rengui said firmly, "Dingfang, His Highness must return to Chang'an safely, and we must welcome him back to Chang'an City."

"I know." Su Dingfang nodded, his firm eyes told Liu Rengui that if he fails, he will succeed, "Don't worry, His Highness will return to Chang'an City safely."

Then, Su Dingfang stretched out his hand and held it with Liu Rengui.

"Let's go!" Su Dingfang roared loudly, and the [-] cavalrymen were like wolves on the grassland, carrying their blood towards Yinshan, the holy place of Turks.

Seeing Su Dingfang's team disappear into the western sky, Li Zong who was beside Liu Rengui asked, "Lieutenant Liu, do you know how we should march? Do you really want to listen to General Su's words and look for the third brother in the west direction?" "Although Liu Rengui is the official of Li Ke's mansion, he is a civil servant.But he wants to command the black guards in the mansion.Therefore, Li Ke gave him the military title of captain.Therefore, Li Zong and Yu Chijun were soldiers, so they called Liu Rengui the school captain.

"Dingfang is right," Liu Rengui said with certainty, "I believe His Highness must have defeated the Turkic cavalry, turned back to the west, and wanted to enter Lingzhou from the direction of Fengzhou, and then return to Chang'an. Therefore, he was trapped On the way back to Chang'an from Yinshan, the possibility is very small."

"Then why didn't General Su look west?" Yu Chijun asked suspiciously, "Didn't he go in the wrong direction when he went deep into the desert?"

"If King Zuo Xian of Turkic really wanted to put His Highness to death, wouldn't he only send more than 1000 cavalry?" Liu Rengui asked back, "If it was me, I would definitely send several troops just to be on the safe side. At this point, Liu Rengui was silent for a moment and then said, "If the Turkic Jieli Khan knew what King Zuoxian did, what would he do? Would he kill his own son? He wouldn't kill him. His own son, but will send heavy troops to intercept and kill His Highness, so that His Highness will never return to Datang. This will cover up the mistakes Schroeder made. At that time, he will pass the responsibility to other tribes in the grassland. After all, His Highness and The Turkic peace talks were successful, so there is no need for him to kill His Highness. In this way, the Tang envoy suddenly disappeared on the grassland, and we have no evidence to prove that it was done by that tribe, so can we rashly launch a war against Turkic?"

"I understand." Li Zong suddenly realized, "General Su wants us to go west to help His Highness, and he himself wants to intercept and kill several other troops sent by Turkic King Zuo Xian on the way, even Jieli Khan. Send out the cavalry to intercept His Highness."

After listening to Li Zong's explanation, Liu Rengui nodded in satisfaction.

"Why are you so sure that third brother can defeat the Turkic cavalry?" Yu Chijun asked again.

"Don't you think His Highness will do it?" Liu Rengui asked back, and then smiled slightly at Yu Chijun, "My lords, let's go? Your Highness is still waiting for us."

"Okay, let's go." Li Zong shouted vigorously at this time.
