Emperor of the Tang Dynasty

Even according to the military report that Li Jing sent back earlier, the situation of the Tang army was bleak, and it was controlled by the Japanese army in all aspects.

"Could it be that the army was defeated?"

Seven or eight thoughts flashed through Li Shimin's heart, because the last messenger arrived three days ago. If there was no accident, Tang Jun should continue to picket the Japanese army in Hejie.

And if the gap between the two was not big and there were no drastic changes, Li Jing would not have sent a letter to Li Shimin in such a hurry.

So there must be something big!

The messenger had been helped by the inner servants to rest, and Li Jing's letter was placed on a tray, and the inner servant slowly walked in from outside the gate of the palace, then walked through the corridor formed by the civil and military officials, and walked in the direction of Li Shimin. Come.

Li Shimin's eyes swept around the faces of the generals, and he had already started to figure out in advance who should be sent to respond to the troops on the front line.

"Li Ji? No, there are a lot of supply problems in the war, and he can't walk away as the Minister of War..."

Attendant Zhao picked up the letter on the plate and sent it to Li Shimin. Li Shimin shook off the distracting thoughts in his mind and carefully checked the seal of the lacquer.

After confirming that it was intact, he used his fingernails to open the seal of the lacquer, and slowly poured out the letter in the envelope.

"Great victory!"

Li Shimin looked over at a glance, but saw those two words directly! .

Chapter 1042 How dare you lie about military intelligence? !

"……what!?"

Li Shimin's body trembled suddenly, his eyes blinked for a while, then he took a slow breath, rolled his eyes and looked at the civil and military officials in front of him.

Immediately afterwards, Li Shimin, with a completely unexpected shock, exhaled and said, "It's a military report - a great victory ahead!"

The hall suddenly fell into a sound of silence. It was as quiet as if a needle fell, and there would be a loud noise!

"Great victory~!? Is this true!"

"Obviously it was suppressed a few days ago, why - just..."

"Could it be the means of His Highness the Crown Prince? Yes, as soon as His Highness went to the front, it was a great victory!"

How quickly did the silence come, how quickly did the commotion come!

The courtiers were chatting with each other, each with excitement on their faces, and even a rational person like Wei Zheng could not help clenching their fists and waving them hard.

And after Li Shimin conveyed the news, he didn't care about the changes of the officials and officials, but looked down at the contents of the letter quickly.

He was very curious, how could the situation be reversed so quickly?

What the hell is going on ahead! ?

It's just that Li Shimin found another line of words before he knew the truth of the matter.

"The army is out of Fuhan, and it's approaching the country of Jie Japan!"

Li Shimin read these words out, and he couldn't help being a little lost.

It seems that this is really a great victory, and the victory is so great that the Tang army can enter another powerful empire!

"Varied……?!"

The Tai Chi Palace immediately became quiet again!

"Not at all, Your Majesty!"

Wen Yanbo walked out staggeringly, and after possessing himself to visit the shrine, he said: "The Japanese country has a long history, and it has a large number of soldiers and generals. !"

"Since we have broken their army at this time, we should send envoys to scold King Jieri and teach them a lesson, so that they don't dare to covet my Tang Dynasty. If we invade their hinterland, whoever will kill the deer will still be killed. Unknown!"

Wen Yanbo talked generously, but he didn't see the cowardice in his language.

"Besides, it's not the best opportunity now. The Baekje Kingdom has to divide its troops to suppress it. Tubo Road and Goryeo Road have also seriously scattered our forces, and we have to be on guard against the counterattack of the Western Turks. Wei Chen thinks that we should withdraw our troops now. Ma, strictly guarding the fortress is the best policy!"

"I think that what Lord Wen said is not good, what he said is wrong!" A military general jumped out and shouted in a hurry, "Now that we have won a big victory and morale is high, it should be a blast, and then open up a new territory for my Tang Dynasty!"

All the ministers in the court have their own ideas, and they all jumped out to express their opinions at one time, as if a hundred schools of thought contend.

Although they each had their own unique opinions, they also made Li Shimin confused for a while. Li Shimin sorted out his thoughts and continued to look at the letter in his hand at the same time.

"Iron-shell mines", "enemies of ten thousand people", "shocking thunder"... One after another term that he didn't know before jumped into Li Shimin's eyes.

What are these things, and why can they cause such a big threat ahead?

A lot of questions kept getting into Li Shimin's mind, making him a little anxious.

The letter specifically recorded the beginnings and transitions of normal warfare, but it failed to describe clearly how these ordnances functioned, but only described the mass destruction of the weapons.

"The letter said that Yang Jie brought several new types of ordnance researched by the Tang Academy of Sciences to the battlefield, and only with the help of these three items called 'iron shell mines', 'enemy of ten thousand people' and 'earthquake thunder' Ordnance, it killed nearly half of the army of the Japanese Empire!And I, Tang Jun..."

At this point, Li Shimin's lips trembled and he couldn't make a sound.

He blinked his eyes with some difficulty, and said to himself in disbelief, "...No one was injured!"

"how can that be?!"

There was an uproar in the courtroom, and the ministers were shocked!

Wei Zheng stood for a moment, his face was puzzled, then confused, and finally turned into anger.
