The Monarch and His Followers Are Not As Good As Zhang Xun
"Tang Emperor Li Shimin."
Li Shimin first read Zhang Xun's letter.
When he saw this sentence, he could not help but feel a little more murderous.
He actually called my name directly. He really doesn't want to live long!
Li Shi Min finished reading the letter with a murderous intent. In the end, he was so angry that he laughed.
"A mere water bandit dares to ask for five million strings of strings and wants me to make him the Governor of Flowing Ball. He deserved to be killed! He deserves to be killed!"
With every word he said, Zhangsun Wuji, who was standing opposite him, broke out in cold sweat.
Although Zhangsun Wuji was the number one contributor to Lingyan Pavilion and was also Li Shiming's close friend, he was still a person of great prestige.
However, ever since Li Shiming became the Emperor, the Emperor's authority had grown.
Even Zhangsun Wuji, an important official, couldn't help but break out in cold sweat when facing Li Shiming.
Then, Li Shimin picked up the letter Zhangsun Wugou had written to him.
After reading it, Li Shi Min calmed down.
"The world's number one water battle master!" Li Shimin muttered to himself.
He could recognize Zhangsun Wugou's handwriting. Furthermore, he had learned some information about Zhang Xun from Zhangsun Wugou's letter.
"It's a pity that such a young talent actually has rebellious bones. What a pity! What a pity!"
Li Shi Min stood up and calmed down.
From Zhangsun Wugou's letter, he already knew that Zhangsun Wugou's life was temporarily safe and that he had not been treated badly.
Therefore, Li Shi Min felt relieved.
He passed the letters from Zhang Xun and Zhangsun Wugou to Zhangsun Wuji.
After Zhangsun Wuji finished reading, he did not speak for a long time.
"Yuezhou's navy is wiped out. Wouldn't this mean that the entire river will be free for this thief to come and go?”
"That's true!" Li Shi Min sighed," What do you have in mind?”
" I'm afraid so." Zhangsun Wuji shook his head and said," The first thing I need to do now is to know how I lost. Only then can I avoid the next failure."”
"Not bad! Then... How did we lose?"
Li Shi Min asked.
"This…"
Zhangsun Wuji shook his head." I really don't know how thirteen warships defeated hundreds of warships from Yuezhou's navy."
As Lu Guangyi and the remaining 10,000 Yuezhou navy soldiers were still trapped on River Heart Island, the report from Yuezhou City only briefly described the situation. As for how they lost, only Lu Guangyi and the others knew.
"That's right. You and I know about the war, but we've never heard of such a thing. How did Zhang Xun win? How did Lu Guangyi lose? Even you and I can't imagine…"
Li Shi Min shook his head.
"It can be seen that Zhang Xun is not an ordinary pirate. He is a huge threat!”
Zhangsun Wuji nodded in agreement. A group of forces that had dominated the river in a short period of time could not be regarded as pirates no matter what.
"Your Majesty, why don't you let Apothecary enter the palace and let him analyze it.”
Zhangsun Wuji suggested.
Apothecary Li Jing was the Great Tang's God of War.
However, in the past two years, he was worried that his contributions were too high, so he shut himself up in the mansion and rarely went to court.
Li Shi Min nodded.
Military affairs, Li Jing is the first.
...
Very quickly.
Li Jing, Duke of Wei, was invited to the palace.
In these two years, Li Jing basically did not participate in the matters of the court.
Destroy Xiao Liang, defeat Fu Gong, and destroy the Eastern Turks.
It can be said that his high achievements shocked the monarch.
Although Li Shi Min was not an intolerant emperor, Li Jing knew that at his level, credit had become a hot potato.
When he heard the result of the water battle, his face was filled with disbelief.
"Your Majesty, I really can't imagine how Zhang Xun did it.”Li Jing sighed." With such a huge disparity in strength, this is simply impossible.”
"Could there be a secret?"
Li Jing asked.
"No, I've read the Empress 'letter. It was written by her.”Li Shi Min said in a low voice.
"Then, this Zhang Xun might really be a rare water battle genius. It's a pity that he can't work for our dynasty.”Li Jing sighed.
Li Shi Min's face darkened.
If even Li Jing said so, it meant that in the Great Tang Imperial Court, the five of them were actually on par with Zhang Xun in the Dao of Water Combat.
How could the Heavenly Khan, who had once boasted that " all the heroes in the world have entered my lap ", be able to keep his face?
"Your Majesty, for now, we can only delay and wait for changes!”Li Jing said," There is no one who can stop Zhang Xun in the Yangtze River. Therefore, we have to first stabilize that bandit and not let him cause any more damage. On the other hand, we have to send experienced and prudent generals to understand Zhang Xun's situation. We have to build warships and prepare for war. We have to find an opportunity to destroy him!”
Li Shi Min nodded." Medicine Master is right. Who do you think can take on this important task in the court?"”
Li Jing thought to himself that the most suitable person was Hejian King Li Xiaogong.
However, Li Xiaogong had conquered Ba and Shu, conquered more than 30 states, pacified the Lingnan states, suppressed the rebellion of Fugong, and pacified the Jiangnan area.
They had made such great contributions, and they were not on the Qin Emperor's side. In order to prevent the Emperor from suspecting them, they spent all day entertaining themselves with singing and dancing beauties.
Therefore, Li Xiaogong was not suitable.
Li Jing thought for a moment and said,"I think Lu Guogong and Cheng Zhijie are suitable."
