"General Qin, you must cooperate with this king in this surprise attack and listen to this king's orders. If this matter fails, this king will bear all the consequences! " If this matter succeeds, defeating Jie Li and resolving the crisis of Chang 'an, please keep it a secret for me. If someone asks, you must say that all these actions were carried out by the Emperor's secret edict. All the credit will go to you and the generals of the Tianjie Army under me. This matter is of great importance. Please help me, General Qin..." Li Chengqian said seriously to Qin Qiong in an irrefutable tone.
For Li Chengqian, who had always wanted to be a salted fish king, he absolutely could not let anyone know about such a limelight.
Li Shi Min had been thinking of ways to make him the Crown Prince.
If this matter succeeded and made such a great contribution, and the world knew about it, he would definitely become the focus of everyone. At that time, even if he did not want to be the Crown Prince, it would probably be impossible.
If he really became the crown prince, and a crown prince who was famous for his wisdom and bravery, wouldn't he have to be restrained in whatever he did in the future?
With so many pairs of eyes staring at him, how could he happily eat, drink, gamble, ride, and shoot?
Moreover, if he contributed too much, he would become the target of everyone's fear, and even cause Li Shiming to be suspicious and wary.
This way, his plan to be a salted fish king in the future and happily court death would probably not work!
Therefore, no matter what, he could not let anyone know his true strength!
In front of the world, he, Li Chengqian, still had to be that honest, generous, and somewhat cowardly, incompetent eldest son of the emperor!
"This!" Qin Qiong was once again dumbfounded by Li Chengqian's words.
However, thinking about the struggles in the court and the palace, thinking about the assassination attempts that Li Chengqian had suffered since he was young, thinking about the incident at Xuanwu Gate, thinking about Li Shimin, Li Jiancheng, and Li Yuan, Qin Qiong finally nodded with tears in his eyes and agreed."Your Highness! It's been hard on you all these years! Alright then! I swear to the heavens that I will keep this secret for Your Highness and never tell anyone else!”
"Then it's settled! General Qin, tomorrow morning, I will personally lead 30,000 Yan and Liao cavalry to wait for you outside the pine forest beside the Jing River. After the two armies meet, we will immediately send our troops south!”After Li Chengqian finished speaking, he suddenly stood up and left with Yang Ji and Zhao Cihao.
Watching Li Chengqian leave, Qin Qiong was filled with a myriad of emotions in his heart.
"Young hero! Young hero!" Qin Qiong sighed emotionally. He turned around and looked at the four-edged golden mace on the Soldier Orchid behind him. A strong light burst out from his eyes."Such a young hero, and he's also His Majesty's eldest son. Even if I, Qin Qiong, have to risk my life, I have to ensure his safety and help him sit on the throne of Crown Prince!!”
When he saw Li Chengqian, he thought of the dead Luo Cheng, the young Li Shiming, and the scenes when he was young!
At this moment, that young Qin Qiong seemed to have returned once again!
"Old brother! You will follow me to conquer the four corners of the world. Tomorrow, let us go out together! For the Great Tang! For His Majesty! For the crown prince! Let's fight another battle!"
……
Three days later, beside the bridge on the Wei River fifty miles away from Chang 'an.
Li Shimin led the 80,000 soldiers under the command of Li Jing and his officials to the south of Weishui River.
On the north bank of the Wei River, Jie Li led 150 thousand elite Turkic cavalry!
Jie Li's golden flag was erected high in front of the middle army, fluttering in the wind, looking majestic!
"Jie Li Khan!"
Li Shimin, the Emperor of Tang, rode his beloved white horse forward and shouted at the Jie Li flag on the other side of the bridge.
"Hahahaha!" Jie Li, who was on the north side of the temporary bridge, laughed loudly. He pulled the reins and led his subordinates forward: "Li Shiming, the King of Qin, whose prestige shook the world, has now become the Emperor of the Central Plains.”
Jie Li said with a sneer. Anyone could hear the mockery hidden in this sentence.
Killing his brother, forcing his father, and getting an improper position, this was Li Shi Min's biggest weakness!
If the name is not correct, the speech will not be smooth!
Being humiliated by Jie Li in public made Li Shi Min furious.
His dignified face instantly turned red!
Li Shi Min's hands that were holding the long spear trembled slightly. He wished he could ride his horse and raise his spear right now to lead the army to fight Jie Li to the death!
However, Li Shi Min endured it!
Because he knew that the Central Plains had experienced the chaotic period of the Five Revolutions and the chaotic period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties.
The Central Plains, which had been suffering from war, could no longer withstand a fatal blow!
Jie Li had unified the grassland tribes, and his subordinates were all brave and good at fighting. With the exhausted troops that had rushed over, they were definitely not a match for the two hundred thousand Turkic cavalry that Jie Li had.
This hard-won peace negotiation was the key to saving the Great Tang!
As an emperor, he had to learn to endure humiliation!
He had to endure this huge humiliation!
He couldn't be angry! He couldn't be impulsive!
Otherwise, everything would be over!
If Chang 'an was breached, it would not matter if he died, but the situation that the Tang Empire had stabilized with great difficulty would be shattered again!
The situation that he had painstakingly stabilized over the past eight years would definitely be destroyed!
Countless civilians would be trampled and trampled by these evil non-humankind bandits!
The northern lands would once again suffer the misery of life!
As the Emperor of the Great Tang, he had to endure!
