Li Shi Min couldn't wait to ask Li Yi. He wanted to know what was wrong with his plan to attack Jie Li.
Ever since the ninth year of Wude, Li Shimin had started the Xuanwu Gate incident and ascended the throne.
Jie Li Khan took the opportunity to go south and attack Wei River.
The people of the Great Tang were plunged into misery.
Li Shimin angrily beheaded the white horse, humiliated and Jie Li signed an unknown contract.
From that day on, Li Shi Min and the Turks had a feud.
Li Shiming had waited for this day for four years!
Four years, not only did the hatred not weaken, it was even intensifying!
In this attack on Jie Li, Li Shimin raised 100,000 troops and let Li Jing personally lead the troops.
All of the attack plans had been discussed day and night by a group of court elders, and in the end, they had come up with this perfect plan.
But now, he heard Li Yi's different voice.
Not only was Li Shimin shocked, but even Fang Xuanling was confused.
However, Li Yi had already disappeared into the kitchen.
The two of them looked at each other.
This brat!
Every time it came to a critical moment, he would definitely pull his hips.
However, there was no hurry. The two of them had plenty of time to wait for Li Yi.
After a few minutes.
Li Yi carried the dishes that filled the courtyard with fragrance into the courtyard.
Red braised chicken, stir-fried vegetables, wild vegetable egg soup…
Fang Xuanling looked at Li Shiming with confusion.
Li Shi Min was also dumbfounded.
The two of them had a big question mark in their hearts. Could this be eaten?
He had never seen these dishes before. How could they be eaten?
Li Shiming looked at Fang Xuanling and said with a smile,"Old Fang, come, try it!"
Fang Xuanling's face twitched and the corners of his mouth twitched.
Your sister!
Why don't you try it?
Under Li Shimin's tyrannical power, Fang Xuanling had no choice but to pick up his chopsticks and put a small bite into the corner of his mouth.
Hmm, it's not bad.
He continued.
Not bad!
Delicious!
Li Shiming looked at Fang Xuanling suspiciously.
Was this guy so careless?
As the Prime Minister of the Great Tang, what delicacies have you not eaten?
Was this what he looked like now?
What was the difference between him and Qi Suo 'er?
Li Shimin thought that Fang Xuanling was trying to flatter Li Yi.
After all, Fang Xuanling knew Li Yi's identity.
However, wasn't it a little disgusting to act like this?
Li Shimin did not believe it.
He naturally did not believe that his silly son could cook any delicacies.
Holding the chopsticks, Li Shi Min hesitated for a moment before putting a mouthful of food into his mouth.
Oh.
Li Shi Min had a look of enjoyment on his face as he looked at Li Yi with shining eyes.
I hope my son will become a dragon!
Although this child did not do anything earth-shattering.
But he knew how to cook!
And it's so delicious!
Wasn't this a heaven-defying ability?
Yes, everything Li Yi did was worthy of Li Shiming's pride.
"Good boy, I didn't expect you to have such a skill. Why haven't I seen you do it before?”Li Shimin was overjoyed.
After he finished speaking, he did not forget to smugly say to Fang Xuanling,"How is it? Does this kid have the ability?"
Fang Xuanling was speechless.
What are you proud of!
Delicious cooking…Yes, it was delicious to the extreme, but what kind of skill was that?
Forget it, I won't argue with Li Shiming.
A moment later, the table was filled with simple dishes.
Fang Xuanling picked up the beard on the broom and brushed his teeth with a look of enjoyment.
After a long while, Fang Xuanling's spirit was shaken!
F * ck!
There was something important that he had yet to ask.
He quickly cleared his throat and asked Li Yi,""Little child, you said that the Imperial Court will sacrifice many people in this war against the Turks?”
After Fang Xuanling asked, Li Shimin looked at Li Yi in a daze.
"That's right." Li Yi nodded. This matter was actually quite simple, and presumably the Imperial Court would have considered it. It was just that he didn't know why the ruler would be so stubborn as to choose this time to attack the Turks.”
Li Shi Min's mouth twitched.
Fang Xuanling was also embarrassed.
The two of them pretended to be all ears.
Li Yi continued," It's already July. Winter is about to arrive in the north. The advantage of the Turks is that they have light cavalry that can attack and retreat. Once they went deep into the desert, it would be very difficult for the imperial court's army to pursue them in the cold winter.”
"Of course, if I'm not wrong, the ruler chose to attack the Turks at this time because he saw through the internal conflict between the Jie and Tuli Khans. The Tuli Khans wanted to stand on their own, so they roped in the Turkic tribes to fight against the Jie Khans. The Turks were in chaos, and the Great Tang took the opportunity to attack the Turks.”
Li Shiming and Fang Xuanling looked at each other.
They could see the shock in each other's eyes.
This kid…was a little different!
Li Yi continued," But that's where the problem lies. They're too eager for quick success!"”
Hmm?
"Since you said that the timing is good, why are you saying that you're eager for quick success?" Fang Xuanling said impatiently.”
Li Yi thought for a moment and said,"The Turks have occupied Liang Shidu's territory and are entrenched in Shuofang, right?"”
The two of them nodded in unison.
"It's easy to take down Shuofang, right?" Li Yi continued.”
The two of them nodded in unison.
"What if the Turks avoid the edge of the Great Tang and flee without fighting?”
Li Yi's sudden change of topic caused Li Shiming and Fang Xuanling to fall into deep thought.
Fang Xuanling pulled his neck and said," This is impossible. The Jie Li Khan is not someone with such a cowardly personality. This is human nature!"”
"Is humanity worth anything?" Li Yi chuckled. In the face of life and death, have you ever thought about how humble a human can be?”
"Even if Jie Li wants to fight, what about his subordinates? It was just like the incident at Xuanwu Sect. Second Emperor Li didn't want to start a mutiny, but what about Fang Xuanling and the others? Would they not add fuel to the fire? Who can resist the general trend?"
Fang Xuanling's expression changed slightly, and the toothpick in his mouth dropped out of fright.
He looked at Li Shi Min carefully.
The Black Tortoise Gate incident was a taboo for Second Emperor Li. No one dared to mention it in front of him!
Including the current Crown Prince, Li Chengqian!
But now, Li Yi said this.
Li Shi Min did not react at all.
This…
Li Yi continued," So, once Jie Li runs away, will the Tang soldiers chase after him or not? The result was self-evident! Given Li the Second Emperor's tough temperament, he would definitely beat the dog that was in trouble to avenge the humiliation at Weishui River!”
Li Shiming was deeply moved by this.
The strategy he had discussed with Fang Xuanling, Li Jing and the rest was to kill Jie Li no matter what!
Therefore, according to the current military plan, even if Jie Li escaped, Li Jing would chase after him regardless of everything.
Li Yi said," If we chase after them, after we go deep into the desert, we will have to fight Jie Li. What are the chances of winning? Has anyone thought about it?" The weather in the north of the desert was like a baby's face, changing at will. The Turks knew the north of the desert like the back of their hands, but what about the soldiers of the Great Tang?”
"So, as long as we fight, the Tang government soldiers will definitely suffer heavy losses!"”
Li Yi finished speaking.
Li Shiming and Fang Xuanling were also stunned, their faces turning paler and paler.
To be honest.
They had never thought about this!
Li Yi saw that the two of them were quite frightened and said with a smile,""However, you don't have to worry. After all, to us, this matter has nothing to do with us.”
"Bullshit!"
Li Yi looked at Old Yellow strangely.
Why would this guy say strange things from time to time?
Li Yi patted Old Yellow's shoulder and said,""I dare not forget the worries of the country. Old Yellow, you are a man of character, but it's useless. After all, His Majesty can't hear your shouts, hehe.”
Fang Xuanling watched from the side, his heart pounding.
F * ck!
Sin!
Wait a minute…
What did he just say?
Do you dare not forget the worries of the country?
