In the front hall of the Wu Residence.
"This king will believe you for the time being!"
Li Ke walked in front of Wu Meiniang with his hands behind his back and said,"What use are you if I don't keep idle people in my residence?”
Wu Meiniang's hanging heart finally settled down. She also knew that she had left a bad impression on Li Ke, and her fate was completely in the other party's hands.
Fortunately, although Wu Wang Li Ke did not have a good impression of her, he still managed to turn the situation around.
Wu Meiniang quickly collected her emotions and focused her mind to think.
She knew very little about Li Ke, almost all of it was from the palace maids chatting.
The palace maids were unable to enter and exit the palace, and the people they interacted with were either the royal family's children or eunuchs.
And Wu Wang Li Ke was undoubtedly the one they discussed the most.
Wu Meiniang quickly had a blurry outline and said cautiously,"Mei Niang, please be bold. Your Highness has to be conferred the title of General of Heaven's Strategy and establish a government.”
"Then, what about the Aquatic Conference?"
Li Ke's interest was piqued. This Wu Meiniang was able to walk to an unprecedented height for all women. Even though she was still extremely immature, she had already begun to show signs of it.
Wu Meiniang continued to speak cautiously," Although the Land and Water Conference can recruit talents, there are very few who can be put in important positions. Your Highness needs to have trusted aides before considering Mao Yu!”
At this moment, she was afraid that if she said anything more, she would touch the Lord's reverse scale.
He was also afraid that he would not perform well enough and be sent to the Jade Pure Monastery.
"If the skin doesn't exist, how can the hair attach?”
Li Ke nodded slightly. It wasn't that he didn't have any confidants, but to avoid suspicion, there were very few people he could use.
If he wanted to spread his teachings to the west, establish a government, have a complete army, and have a civil and military system, it would be crucial.
Therefore, just like what Wu Meiniang said, he first needed to build a complete and trustworthy confidant system as his skeleton and flesh.
Then, he would absorb the mixed talents as his wings and slowly make money from them. Only then would there be no internal friction, difficulty in commanding, and so on.
"Get up!"
Li Ke glanced at Wu Meiniang and strode out.
Chang 'an, the North Yamen's Imperial Army Camp.
Dong dong…
The sound of drums was deafening as the army gathered and their flags fluttered.
Li Ke wore black armor and led the army on a horse.
" The Great Tang is mighty!"
" The Great Tang is mighty!"
……
Before he arrived, the sound of a tsunami could be heard.
Li Ke sat on his warhorse and looked at the forest of Mo knives and the iron horse camp of the North Ya.
Wu Meiniang stumbled on her warhorse and followed behind Li Ke. Seeing this scene, she was shocked and muttered to herself,"So, he was prepared long ago. No, he did it far better than I imagined.”
The Tang army was divided into the prefecture soldiers, the imperial guards of the northern and southern yamen, the soldiers recruited, the border guards, and the united soldiers.
The twelve guards of the Southern Yamen were subordinate to the Prime Minister's Mansion and were divided into twelve guards to protect Chang 'an.
The North Yamen was the imperial army, with the Yulin, Longwu, Shenwu, and Shence armies guarding the palace. They were under the direct jurisdiction of the emperor.
After Li Ke was appointed as the Heavenly Strategy General, he asked Li Shimin for a decree to reorganize the Black Armor Army.
The Black Armored Army was an elite force that had fought alongside Li Shiming, and they were an unparalleled army that had fought through mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
In the battle of Hulao Pass, Dou Jiande led more than 100,000 elite troops to support Wang Shichong. Li Shimin only used 3500 black-armored elite soldiers as the vanguard to reinforce Hulao Pass, and in the end, Dou Jiande defeated more than 100,000 troops.
Dou Jiande only led hundreds of cavalry to escape.
Soon after, Wang Shichong of Luoyang saw that the Xia Emperor Dou Jiande's army of more than 100,000 soldiers had also been destroyed. He felt that there was no need to resist and led his civil and military officials to surrender.
The situation in the world had completely turned in favor of the Tang army.
With Li Shimin's ascension to the throne, the four armies of the North Yamen were expanded to protect the palace.
Li Ke chose to reorganize the Black Armor Army because he was envious of this invincible army.
On the other hand, he expressed his stance to Li Shimin.
After all, he had established his government in Chang 'an. If he had an army, even if he had no intention of going to the Tang Empire, Li Shimin and the other civil and military officials might be worried that Li Ke would rebel when they woke up.
Not to mention the Black Tortoise Gate incident, just the Crown Prince Li Chengqian rebelling two years ago was enough to make people suspicious.
The Black Armored Army was different. They were loyal to Li Shimin, and even if they were controlled by Li Ke, the officials of the Great Tang were not worried that Li Ke would use them to rebel.
"This subject, Xue Li and Xue Rengui, pays their respects to the Heavenly Strategy General!!”
A young general came forward and knelt down, cupping his fists in greeting.
Last year, in the 18th year of Zhenguan, Xue Rengui had joined Li Shimin's expedition to Liaodong. He had made a name for himself in this battle and was promoted to guerrilla general by Li Shimin, Guo Yi of Yunquan Prefecture.
After returning, Li Shimin also appointed Xue Li as the right commander, guarding the Xuanwu Gate of the palace city.
Li Ke took him under his command to lead the reorganized Black Armor Army.
The black armored army was originally a single heavy cavalry, Li Ke reorganized the former ruler Xue Li and added heavy infantry Mo Dao.
Following Xue Li's words, the 3,000 black-armored soldiers dismounted in unison and stood side by side with the Mo Saber Army. The 5,000-plus people were majestic and shouted in unison,
"Greetings, Heavenly Strategy General!"
" We…!!!"
"Rise!"
Li Ke looked at this army that was carrying out orders and killing intent, and he couldn't suppress the joy in his heart.
They would be the seeds of Li Ke's western expedition, and the future western expedition army would be built around these two armies.
……
Roar…!
In the sky, the roars of dragons and tigers sounded.
"The baleful aura soared into the clouds, and the purple mist fell into the palace. I'm one step closer to spreading the Dao to the West!"
The immortals, gods, and cultivators around the Supreme Liquid Pool sensed the changes in the outside world and couldn't help but look to the north of Chang 'an.
The baleful aura rushed into the sky. The sky was blue as if it was washed away, and the white clouds were washed away.
In the sky, where the naked eye could not see and only spiritual perception could detect, the Ziwei Star was emitting a faint glow.
The Golden Luck Dragon of the Great Tang let out a soundless roar, growing increasingly heavy and agile.
At this moment, Li Ke's fate and luck underwent a transformation.
He was ordered to be a tripod, and the tripod guarded the four directions.
Purple qi gathered on the cauldron, and a jade seal was faintly discernible.
The flood dragon transformed into a five-clawed dragon with protruding horns and a pearl in its mouth.
"The Western Expedition has been established. Buddhism is flourishing, and so is the Celestial Sect. Are they trying to fight and exchange positions?”
Seeing this, Haotian felt that it was ridiculous.
