Li Chengdao's words stunned Xue Rengui.
A troop that didn't require soldiers to be brave and fierce, but only required them to have special talents?
What was the use of these people?
Xue Rengui thought that Li Chengdao wanted him to form an elite force that surpassed the Dragon Cavalry Army, but it turned out to be such a strange request.
"Your Majesty, forgive me for being presumptuous. What is the use of this army?”
Xue Rengui could not help but ask.
"The Han Dynasty's Marquis Champion once formed such a force. Although there weren't many of them, they were able to protect the army." Li Chengdao smiled.
Huo Qubing was sent to attack the Xiongnu, while our Great Gan is now sent to attack the Great Tang. How can we lose such a force?
The Eastern Expedition is imminent. You have to hurry up and prepare. I will give you the highest authority.”
Li Chengdao did not explain further.
However, Xue Rengui had a strong comprehension ability and quickly understood Li Chengdao's thoughts and plans.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. I will definitely complete the mission!”
Xue Rengui put away his casual attitude and cupped his fists in salute, his expression solemn.
He was never careless when it came to important matters.
Li Chengdao nodded and then asked him to leave.
........
Peter X had not come here since Princess Anna had completely let go of her revenge that day.
Obviously, he was very angry with Princess Anna.
However, after Queen Sophia heard the news, she was very happy and specially came to the palace to visit her.
Back to Dragon Palace.
"Anna, you finally understand.”
Queen Sophia heaved a sigh of relief, her eyes filled with relief.
Her daughter had always lived in hatred and always wanted to take revenge. Although she did not say anything before, she had always been worried.
She was always worried that Princess Anna would one day anger Li Chengdao because of this matter and lose her life.
For this reason, she did not hesitate to use her body to bear the blame for her in front of Li Chengdao.
"I'm sorry, Mother. I've made you worry for me for so long.”
Princess Anna looked apologetic and lowered her head slightly.
"Silly child!"
Queen Sophia gently patted Princess Anna's head and said,""I don't want to see you carrying hatred all the time.
The empire has been destroyed. We cannot change the past, nor do we have the ability to do so.
I'm satisfied that you can live well.”
Princess Anna didn't say anything. She just nodded deeply.
Just as the mother and daughter were talking, a maid hurried in and said in a panic,"Imperial Concubine, His, His Majesty is here!”
"What?"
Princess Anna and Queen Sophia widened their eyes and said in unison.
One was surprised, and the other was in disbelief.
Li Chengdao actually took the initiative to return to the Dragon Palace?!
Before the two of them could react, a tall and slender figure walked back into the Dragon Palace.
Black dragon robe, jade-like face, who else could it be but Li Chengdao?
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
Seeing Li Chengdao, Princess Anna and Queen Sophia couldn't care less about their surprise and immediately bowed.
Li Chengdao's eyes lingered on Princess Anna's face for a moment, then he waved his hand and said,""Get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The two of them stood up.
Seeing Li Chengdao walk to the head of the table and sit down, Queen Sophia hesitated for a moment before asking,""Your Majesty, why are you here today?”
Li Chengdao raised his eyebrows.”
"No, no, I just…"
Queen Sophia was stunned for a moment, and then she tried to explain in a panic.
Li Chengdao had never returned to the Dragon Palace before.
How could she not be surprised when he took the initiative to come over this time?
Princess Anna was very calm. She nodded and said,""Your Majesty can naturally come whenever he wants.
It's just that Your Majesty's arrival today was unexpected and ChenQie was not prepared to receive you. I was rude. Please forgive me, Your Majesty.”
Her words were polite, generous, and proper, without any flaws.
Li Chengdao looked at Princess Anna, and she also looked back with a calm gaze.
The current Princess Anna was much more mature than before.
Li Chengdao quickly retracted his gaze. Then, he picked up the teacup and took a sip."In another twenty days, Zhen will be sending troops to the east.
At that time, you two can come and watch the ceremony and see the glory of our Great Gan.”
Hearing this, Princess Anna and Queen Sophia were shocked.
They were all aware of Li Chengdao's expedition to the east. He had been preparing for three months and was about to send 500,000 troops to cross thousands of miles to the east!
Such ambition and boldness shocked them, but they also admired him.
This was because after a ruler conquered an empire, they would usually think about how to stabilize the regime and then enrich the country and strengthen the army.
Li Chengdao was different. He only spent less than a month to stabilize the imperial power and then mobilized his troops to prepare for the eastern expedition.
The person who could do such a thing was either a tyrant or a rare hero!
Li Chengdao was obviously the latter.
"ChenQie wishes Your Majesty a great victory in the Eastern Expedition!"
Princess Anna knelt down and kowtowed.
Queen Sophia had never learned such standard eastern etiquette. After thinking for a moment, she awkwardly curtsied.
Li Chengdao nodded slightly, then stood up and left.
However, before he left, he left a message."The pastries you made are not bad. When you have time, you can make some more for me to try.”
Princess Anna looked up in surprise, but she only saw Li Chengdao's back as he left.
........
A few days later, in the royal study.
Today, the spacious royal study was packed with people.
Li Ji, Wang Gui, Xue Rengui, Wei Zheng, Xue Wanche, Luo Yi, and many other civil and military officials were gathered together.
In the royal study, the large dragon table had been replaced with a large sand table.
Li Chengdao stood beside the sandbox and looked up at the crowd.
He saw many faces that were either calm, eager, or expectant.
The people gathered in the royal study were all the top talents of Great Qian Empire!
