Li Longji was suddenly embarrassed.
Li Longji had already predicted all of this before he gave the commander's seal.
Now that it was mentioned, if Li Longji wanted Li Rui to stand out, he would have to pay him. Otherwise, how could he go to war?
Li Heng suddenly said,"The Tibetans have sent an army of 150,000 to invade our Great Tang. Do you have the confidence to repel them?"”
Li Rui shook his head and said," 150,000 troops, of which 50,000 were Tibetan elites. I almost wiped them out at Beacon Tower. I don't know how many Tibetans that trash Tang Jiahui killed."”
One sentence revealed that the Tibetan army had less than 100,000 people!
"How many men do you need to defeat the Tubo?" Li Longji asked.”
"No matter what, there should be at least 1.8 million people." Li Rui said expressionlessly.”
Li Heng and the others stared blankly. The entire Great Tang didn't have this many soldiers, and even if they did, they would be able to defeat the Tibetans.
In the end, Li Longji assigned 100,000 of the 200,000 imperial guards to Li Rui, the Prince of Liang, and appointed him as a new General. Li Mao, the Prince of Shou, Li Ying, and Li Lin, the Prince of Yong, were all appointed as Dingyuan Generals.
General Li Rui's title was ranked fourth, while the others were ranked fifth.
Food and military pay had always been under the direct jurisdiction of the palace, so Li Rui did not have to worry about it.
Li Longji looked at the girl in plain clothes at the back of the crowd. His eyes lit up and he asked,""Who is this woman?"
" Father, this is my…" Li Mao knelt down and replied.
Actually, in Li Mao's heart, he already treated Yang Yuhuan as his wife and would marry her sooner or later.
If nothing went wrong, Yang Yuhuan was indeed his wife.
Li Longji tiredly said something to Gao Lishi, then turned around and went to the harem.
"The Sage is tired. Summon Yang Yuhuan to Yangxin Hall!" Gao Lishi said in a clear voice.”
Li Mao was shocked.
Was he trying to steal his wife?
However, who would dare to disobey the orders of the current Sage?
Everyone knew that the woman was summoned to Yangxin Hall and was favored by the saint. She was either a concubine or a concubine.
Yang Yuhuan was a little flustered, her eyes instinctively asking Li Mao for help.
However, Li Mao turned a blind eye and left the hall with his head lowered.
"Yuhuan, it's your honor to be summoned by the Sage!" Gao Lishi said humbly.”
Yang Yuhuan bit her thin lips. Who would have thought that she would be favored by an old man in his fifties?
Li Rui's gaze was playful as he watched Li Mao leave as if nothing had happened. It really matched the historical records.
Just when everyone thought that everything was settled.
Li Rui held Yang Yuhuan's cold hand and said indifferently,""Follow me!"
"Ah?"
Yang Yuhuan's eyes were filled with surprise and disbelief.
The Prince Liang, whose name shook the imperial court, actually wanted to take her away!
Gao Lishi was dumbfounded." Your Highness, Prince Liang, wait a moment. This…This can't be done!"”
Li Rui didn't even turn his head and said,""If there's any problem, let the old man find me!”
Gao Lishi was dumbfounded. Even if he had ten guts, he wouldn't dare to snatch someone from Li Rui's hands.
Li Longji was waiting in Yangxin Palace Hall. When he saw Gao Lishi coming over alone, he was furious."Why did you come alone?"
Gao Lishi wanted to cry but had no tears. He knelt down in fear and said,"Yang Yuhuan is the Prince of Liang's subordinate. This old servant is incompetent and can't stop His Highness the Prince of Liang.”
Li Longji said angrily,"It's this unfilial son again. Let him wait!"”
After saying that, Li Longji actually wanted to block Li Rui, not wanting Yang Yuhuan to leave the palace.
On the other side, Li Rui quickened his pace and urged,""Hurry up."
"Why?" Yang Yuhuan was puzzled.
Li Rui pinched her nose and said in a bad mood,"Don't underestimate your charm. The old man won't let you go so easily.”
Yang Yuhuan's face flushed red as she followed Li Rui out of the palace shyly.
Li Longji couldn't chase him out of the palace, so he turned around and scolded Gao Lishi.
Yang Yuhuan was brought back to the courtyard by Li Rui. She could be Wang Zhaojun's companion. Half of the four beauties of ancient times had been gathered.
In the pavilion.
Li Rui threw a head over. Xiao Gui opened it and said in surprise,""Tang Jiahui's head?"
"I told you, I will give your 8th Regiment an explanation.”Li Rui smiled faintly.
Zhang Xiaojing knelt down on one knee and crossed his arms.”
"Xiao Gui swore his loyalty to Prince Liang!"
Xiao Gui said firmly.
Su Luo got the two of them to stand up and turned around to say to Cao Cao,"This old man is still guarding against me, and he actually sent out the Imperial Army.”
Cao Cao frowned." The Imperial Army is the Emperor's personal guard. Even if we expel the Tibetans, the 100,000 Imperial Army soldiers will still return to the Emperor's hands."”
That was why Li Rui said that the old man was guarding against him!
It seemed that he would have to rely on himself if he wanted to have a hundred thousand cavalry.
Li Rui instructed," Inform Huo Qubing outside the city that the army will set off at noon tomorrow. The Northern Liang Army will follow me."”
"Yes, sir!" Zhang Xiaojing went out of the city to convey the secret order.
The next day, noon.
Before Li Rui left, he took out 16 gold ingots and gave them to Wang Zhaojun."Zhaojun, you entered the residence early and Yuhuan you are young. After I leave, take care of the house.”
