On the pavilion of the man-made lake in the Marquisdom.
Li Mo was still muttering about the ridiculously beautiful servant that Li Shiming had brought.
Li Jing was led by Zhang Di, the butler, through the hall and quickly walked over.
"My father-in-law is here.”
Li Mo saw Li Jing and was about to stand up.
"Don't move!"
Li Shi Min suddenly growled, giving Li Mo a fright.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong?" He had an innocent look on his face. He didn't know how he had offended this big boss.
"Don't ask. You're not going anywhere today anyway!”
Li Shi Min pointed at the stone bench and said,"Sit here today and don't go anywhere!”
After saying that, he looked dotingly at the person dressed as a servant beside him.
That gaze was 70% indulgent, 20% guilty, and a little sad.
It was like a father looking at his dying child.
Meanwhile, the girl dressed as a servant was staring at Li Mo.
Yes, young lady.
Li Mo could already tell that this was a real beauty.
Her eyes were filled with adoration and sadness as she stared at Li Mo's face.
Beads of tears rolled down her handsome face, drop by drop.
Li Mo was completely confused.
What the hell was going on?
The Emperor suddenly brought a girl who seemed to be his daughter to his house for a drink.
After that, this little girl kept staring at him and crying.
Whether it was the memories of his past life or this life, Li Mo was certain…
He had never seen this girl before!
He had never done anything to let this girl down!
He looked at Cheng Yaojin blankly.
"Just do whatever His Majesty tells you to do." Cheng Yaojin replied.”
After saying that, he gulped down another large glass of fruit wine.
The atmosphere became even more bizarre.
At this moment, Li Jing walked quickly to the table and greeted Li Shiming,""Greetings, Your Majesty!"
"Sit!"
Li Shi Min didn't have any desire to speak, so he just gave an order.
Li Jing quickly sat down and saw the young girl dressed as a servant beside Li Shiming. He gasped,""Fourth Princess, you're here too!"
The girl stood up gracefully and bowed to Li Jing." Li Zhi greets General Li."”
That clear voice was like a yellow oriole chirping in the green willow, it was really pleasant to hear.
Half of Li Mo's doubts were resolved.
Alright, it was indeed Li Shiming's daughter, the fourth princess, Li Lizhi.
What was going on?
"Li Jing! If you were to fight the Turks now, how many people would you need?”
Li Shi Min suddenly asked in a rough voice, interrupting Li Mo's thoughts.
Li Jing was stunned. Then, he cupped his hands and said," If Your Majesty wants to fight against a large number of people with fewer people, you must have enough cavalry. Moreover, you must have elite cavalry!" And enough warhorses!"
He dipped his finger in the fruit wine and drew the terrain near Youzhou.""Our scouts have reported that before the Turkic prince Dieluo Zhi left for Chang 'an, he had his army of three hundred thousand retreat to the northern foot of Swallow Mountain and dig out a stronghold to defend it.”
"Their stronghold is like a long snake, locking down Xuanhua Yehu Ridge. Normally, it is impossible to break through unless there is an army of the same number.”
"However, if we have a sufficient number of elite cavalry and elite infantrymen in carriages, we can break through Qinhuang Island!”
Li Jing pointed to the location of Shanhai Pass and said,""From here, after advancing for 750 li and bypassing the Swallow Mountain range, we will reach their rear.”
"When the time comes, the elite infantry will occupy one of their strongholds in Yehu Ridge and fight to the death. The three hundred thousand Turks will be instantly deprived of food!”
"The cavalry will continue to attack and delay them so that they can't take back Youzhou. At that time, with three hundred thousand Turks, I can guarantee that they…"
"In the cold wilderness, I'll die without a burial place!" Li Jing said with a murderous aura.”
"How many people do you need?" Li Shi Min's eyes lit up.
"Wild Fox Ridge is a natural danger. Three thousand infantrymen are enough!”
" The cavalrymen in charge of charging back and forth must be at least 8,000 men," Li Jing said." Moreover, it must be one man and two horses. Furthermore, it must be elite!”
"After all, we won't have any reinforcements at that time. If we fall into an enemy country, it'll be a waste of rations if we send cavalry that isn't elite enough.”
"Alright, for the sake of the princess, I, Old Cheng, will also go!”
Cheng Yaojin slapped his chest and shouted.
Li Lizhi's eyes lit up.
Li Shi Min nodded."Yes, one person and two horses. 8,000 cavalrymen will consume 24,000 people's rations. Adding 3000 elite infantrymen, it will be less than 30,000 people's rations. This plan…is feasible!"”
"For the Fourth Princess? Everyone, can you tell me what the situation is now?”
Li Mo finally couldn't take it anymore.
If you want to fight, then fight. Why did you drag this girl in front of you into it?
"The Tibetans are threatening our Great Tang. If we don't marry the Fourth Princess to their prince Dieluo Zhi, they will continue to attack us.”
Li Jing narrowed his eyes." The Great Tang isn't afraid of war. It's just that we suffered a great calamity last year, leaving our treasury empty. In addition, the Turkic invasion this time has caused the northern provinces to lose their harvest. That's why the Turks have the capital to threaten us.”
Li Mo immediately understood. The Turks wanted to take advantage of the Great Tang's economic crisis to take a hostage.
