"No problem, just leave it to me, Your Majesty. War is such a simple matter!”
Who knew that not only was Yuchi Jingde not afraid at all, but he had a face full of joy instead. He thumped his chest, looking eager to give it a try.
In comparison, as an official in the imperial court, fighting was his old profession.
Moreover, from what the Emperor said, as long as he won this battle, all his previous crimes would be written off.
Ding-dong. The host has triggered a mission. [Mission: Use his God-level talent skill, Lotus Blossoming Tongue, to stop Yuchi Jingde from going out and help the Great Tang conquer Tuyuhun and obtain victory.] [Mission Success: Obtain the second, third, fourth, and fifth volumes of Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio. Mission Failure: ] Close the Exchange Mall."
At this moment, the system's cold notification sounded in Li Yi's mind.
"What is it? Mission?"
The system's voice in his mind stunned Li Yi.
This was the first time the system had issued a mission. It said that if one did not complete it, the system would punish them.
Of course, the Exchange Mall could not be closed. Otherwise, how many stories could he remember on his own?
But what was he supposed to do when the Great Tang was at war?
A storyteller?
Was he going to tell inspirational stories to the soldiers of the Great Tang on the battlefield?
Or perhaps he could just send him to the war against the Mongolia in the western region and destroy the Mongol Empire with an invincible expert?
However, in a war between countries, the number of people would be at least in the tens of thousands.
Even if he was one more person, he would be able to fight against a thousand. With the combat strength of Lu Bu, Xiang Yu, and Li Yuanba, he would not be of much use. At most, he would be able to inspire the courage of the soldiers.
"However, if I use Lotus Blossoming Tongue…"”
Suddenly, Li Yi's eyes lit up because he thought of what would happen if he recited the song " Qin Feng. Wuyi, the Tang soldiers, who had been calm and composed, were now filled with a passion that did not fear death. They only had the thought of protecting their country.
They were not afraid of life or death.
There was only one thought in his mind, and that was to defeat the enemy and protect his country.
How terrifying would this army be?
Especially in ancient times, when two armies had similar weapon advantages, fighting was actually about imposing manner.
If Li Yi could raise the morale of the Great Tang soldiers to the peak before the battle began, Tuyuhun would have already lost half of the battle.
Or perhaps he might as well recite Li Bai's 'Journey of the Chivalrous Swords', leaving the soldiers of the Great Tang with only thoughts of killing…
Li Yi instantly shivered. If he really did that, would Tuyuhun be killed by the crazy Tang soldiers?
His thoughts returned.
Of course, Li Yi didn't want Yuchi Jingde to win the war against Tuyuhun and be exempted from punishment by Li Shimin.
The matter of Yuchi Jingde framing him for committing the crime of deceiving the sovereign and wanting to kill him, he remembered it all in his heart!
However, if he didn't want Yuchi Jingde to go and attack Tuyuhun and be pardoned by Li Shimin after returning victorious, then Li Yi had to stop Yuchi Jingde from going to Tuyuhun!
However, this was an order from Li Shimin himself. How could he make Li Shimin change his mind and stop Yuchi Jingde from attacking Tuyuhun?
Li Yi's eyes turned as he thought of a plan.
Li Yi stepped forward and cupped his hands at Li Shimin,""Your Majesty, this commoner is not convinced."
"Oh, Li Yi, what do you have against me?" Li Shi Min asked with interest.”
" Your Majesty," Li Yi said," Yuchi Jingde forcibly abducted a commoner. Logically speaking, he has already violated the laws of the Great Tang. We can't let him redeem himself just because he wants to lead an army to war. If he returns victorious, we can pardon him from his crimes."”
"But the Great Tang's Minister of War, Li Jing, has yet to recover from his foot injury, so he can't send a general who can lead the army."”
"Your Majesty, can I trust you?" Li Yi asked.”
Li Shi Min was even more curious. He asked,""Li Yi, what do you mean?”
Li Yi's words were shocking,"I want to make a bet with Yuchi Jingde."”
"What bet?"
Li Yi said," Your Majesty, don't let Yuchi Jingde lead the troops. Send any general to lead the troops. Let this commoner be the military advisor. This commoner can guarantee that we will win this battle!"”
Li Shi Min was shocked and stood up from his throne. He pointed at Li Yi and said,""Li Yi, are you serious?"
"Of course." Li Yi nodded.
"Then what do you want to bet with Yuchi Jingde?"”
Li Yi: " Your Majesty, if I win, please punish Yuchi Jingde according to the laws of the Tang Empire. Also, punish Yuchi Jingde to give me a restaurant in Chang 'an with no lower than the fifth floor. If I lose, I am willing to commit suicide to apologize."”
"What a joke. A mere storyteller like you doesn't even know the art of war, yet you want to be the military advisor of the Great Tang's expedition to Tuyuhun, and you even guarantee His Majesty that you will win? Even I, who have experienced countless wars and spent my entire life in the military, can't guarantee that I will win when I lead my troops to attack Tuyuhun. Where did you get your confidence from?”
Before Li Shi Min could say anything, Yuchi Jing De's mocking laughter came from the side.
"Li Yi, think twice!"
Li Chunfeng, who was standing at the side, saw that Li Yi was actually boasting in front of the Emperor and immediately said anxiously.
"Li Yi, although you are a great talent, you are still young. You must not make such big promises.”
"That's right! Li Yi, don't fight for personal feelings."
"Li Yi, this bet is dangerous. It's too late for you to plead with His Majesty to take back the bet.”
"Li Yi, you promised His Majesty that you would be rewarded and become a civil official. Why do you have to take the risk on the battlefield?”
Then, Fang Xuanling, Gao Shilian, Wei Zheng, and Zhangsun Wuji started to persuade Li Yidao.
Other than admiring Li Yi's talent, they did not want Li Yi to lose his life on the battlefield because of his arrogance or commit suicide because of the failure of the bet.
The greater reason was that they did not want to see the tens of thousands of Great Tang soldiers die on the battlefield because of Li Yi.
Although they didn't like Yuchi Jingde, they had to admit that compared to Li Yi, Yuchi Jingde, who had followed Li Shimin through countless wars, was the most suitable person to represent the Tuyuhun army.
"No problem, just leave it to me, Your Majesty. War is such a simple matter!”
Who knew that not only was Yuchi Jingde not afraid at all, but he had a face full of joy instead. He thumped his chest, looking eager to give it a try.
Compared to being an official in the imperial court, fighting was his old profession.

This was the first time the system had issued a mission. It said that if one did not complete it, the system would punish them.
Of course, the Exchange Mall could not be closed. Otherwise, how many stories could he remember on his own?
But how could he help when the Great Tang was at war with another country?
A storyteller?
Should he tell inspirational stories to the soldiers of the Great Tang on the battlefield?
Or should he just let him go to the battle of Tuyuhun and become invincible?
However, in a war between countries, the number of people would be at least in the tens of thousands.
Even if he was one more person, he could fight against a thousand. With the combat strength of Lu Bu, Xiang Yu, and Li Yuanba, he wouldn't be of much use. At most, he would be able to rouse the courage of the soldiers.
"However, if I…"
Suddenly, Li Yi's eyes lit up because he thought of something. Before he set off, if he recited the song 'Qin Feng... The soldiers of the Great Tang, who had been calm and composed, instantly felt their blood boil. They had an aura that did not fear death, and they only had the thought of protecting their country.
They were not afraid of life or death.
There was only one thought in his mind, and that was to defeat the enemy and protect his country.
How terrifying was this army?

Li Shi Min: What bet?"
Li Yi said," Your Majesty, don't let Yuchi Jingde lead the army. Send any general to lead the army. This commoner has a way to make this general win. This commoner dares to guarantee with his head that this battle will be won!”
Li Shi Min was shocked and stood up from his throne. He pointed at Li Yi and said,""Li Yi, are you serious?"
"Of course." Li Yi nodded.
"Then what do you want to bet with Yuchi Jingde?"”

"What a joke. You're just a little storyteller. I'm afraid you don't even know the art of war. How dare you guarantee that you'll definitely win? Even I, who have experienced countless wars and spent my entire life in the military, can't guarantee that I will win when I lead my troops to attack Tuyuhun. Where did you get your confidence from?”
Before Li Shi Min could say anything, Yuchi Jing De's mocking laughter came from the side.
