Li Chengdao was very satisfied with his attitude. He then looked at the other three Regional Kings." Any other questions?”
"..." Li Shentong, Li Shenfu, and Li Xiaogong's faces flushed red, but they didn't dare to make a sound. They were afraid that if they spoke again, they would be angered to death by him before they even left the palace!
No wonder Cousin couldn't beat him!
Li Shenfu felt his teeth ache. The little Emperor was too cautious, so cautious that he didn't know what to say!
He said that the things he prepared were not very effective against the enemy, but they could break through the defense of his own people in minutes.
But it made sense.
No matter what, Li Yuan's cautiousness made him worthy of being locked up in King Qin's mansion.
"Since there's no problem, let's not delay any longer. Let's get ready to set off.”
"Have you prepared what I asked you to prepare?" Li Chengdao looked at Ji Gang.”
"Let His Majesty know that everything is ready.”
Ji Gang cupped his fists and said," The four Commandery Princes have brought 6,000 elite soldiers, 50 Brocade Guards from the four prefectures, and the horses needed by the 50 foreigners from the East Chamber. They are all ready outside the palace."”
"Let's go." Li Chengdao placed his hands behind his back and stepped out of the hall. He said in a tender voice,"Let's go north!"
"We will obey."
The four Regional Kings looked at each other and knew that they had to go this time. They followed behind Li Chengdao helplessly.
When they arrived outside the palace, 6200 horses appeared in front of everyone.
The 6,000 soldiers they had brought into the palace to help the king sat on horseback and stopped not far away.
Among them were 50 Embroidered Uniform Guards and 50 East Chamber foreigners.
As for the other six horses, the little Emperor and Ji Gang sat on one horse, Yu Huatian rode on one, and the four Regional Kings rode on one each.
Li Shentong looked at the additional 100 people who were sitting on horseback with a pale face. He pointed at them and asked,"Your Majesty, who are they?"
"There are imperial physicians, veterinarians, and morticians…" Li Chengdao said patiently.
“？？？”The four Regional Kings paled. Are we going to pacify the Turks or are we going to die?
After getting on the horse, Li Shentong found that there was a cloth bag hanging on the side of each horse's back. He asked in confusion,"Your Majesty, what is this?"
"Something that can be used." Li Chengdao smiled.”
The four Regional Kings did not dare to ask any more questions. They were afraid that if they asked any more questions, he would say that he was an urn.
At this moment, seeing everyone looking at him, Li Chengdao waved his small hand and said in a childish voice,"Let's go!"
————
The Turkic Khaganate's capital, Dujin Mountain, was filled with tent after tent, and the ground was covered with flags with wolf heads.
"Hahahaha, this is a godsend opportunity for the Turks!”
Within the commander's tent sat Jie Li Khan, Tuli Khan, and a dozen tribe leaders.
Jie Li Khagan lowered his head to look at the letter and laughed loudly.
The Little Khan of Tuli, who was sitting at the side, clicked his tongue and said,"Li Tang actually replaced a young emperor. Has Li Yuan lost his mind?”
Jie Li looked at him and smiled." Didn't you see the report that came back? Li Yuan was locked up by the eldest grandson of the Emperor, Li Chengdao, in the King Qin's Residence. The Crown Prince, King Qin, and King Qi were also locked up together with him!”
"I really can't imagine how they couldn't even defeat an eight-year-old child.”
"No matter what, this is a great opportunity for our Turks!”
"Li Tang has a good saying. If you don't take it, you will suffer.”Jie Li looked at Little Khan Tuli and asked,""How are the preparations for the troops I asked you to gather?”
"Khagan, the troops have been gathered. There are a total of two hundred thousand soldiers!"”
"Good!"
Jie Li Khagan slammed the letter in his hand on the table, stood up, and waved his hand."Do as we discussed, no mistakes.”
"Yes, Khan!"
Little Khan Tuli and the other tribal leaders stood up and placed their right hands on their left shoulders.
————
The next morning.
The sky was just beginning to brighten. Along with the sound of horse hooves, dust flew up on an official road.
"This is the only official road from the Turks to Chang 'an.”
Li Shentong held the reins and raised his hand to stop the 6,000 elite soldiers. Then, he said to Li Chengdao with a solemn expression,
"Your Majesty, this place is eight hundred miles away from Chang 'an. If the Turks really lead their army south, they will definitely pass through here.”
"This place is also the most suitable place for an ambush. If we continue forward, the terrain will be flat.”
Li Chengdao looked around.
The official road was a bumpy dirt road with forests on both sides. It was indeed a good place for an ambush as Li Shentong had said.
"Then this is it."
Li Chengdao said in a tender voice. He then dismounted and led the four Regional Kings into the forest.
The 50 Brocade Guards and 50 East Chamber foreigners following behind him took out shovels from the cloth bags on the sides of their horses and started digging.
Li Shentong looked at the 50 Brocade Guards and 50 East Chamber foreigners who were working hard and said in confusion,"
"Your Majesty, why did you ask them to dig a hole?”
Li Chengdao glanced at him and said matter-of-factly,"Pretend to be a corpse."
Li Shentong: "??"
Seeing that the other three Commandery Princes were also dumbfounded, Li Chengdao's small face turned solemn and said,"
"Just in case, dig the pit first. If we win, the corpses in the pit will belong to the Turks, but if we lose, our corpses won't be exposed to the wilderness.”
"..." Li Divine Talisman stroked his beautiful beard and looked at him with emotion. You're really cautious. You even f * cking arranged our fate in advance?
Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves could be heard.
Yu Huatian, who had turned into a scout, walked over quickly and whispered,"Your Majesty, someone is here!"
Li Chengdao walked to the front of the forest and stood on his tiptoes to look. He saw warhorses carrying armored soldiers on their backs as they galloped over.
They seemed to have chosen this place as well. They stopped and dismounted.
"This place is not bad. Let everyone rest.”
The leader of the group shouted in Turkic,"Get off the horse and rest!"
"Yes."
The deputy general's voice rang out.
They did not know that the 6,000 cavalrymen from Chang 'an had dismounted and were lying in ambush on both sides.
Li Shentong, Li Shenfu, Li Xiaogong, and Li Yuan lay on the ground, solemnly staring at the Turkic soldiers.
These Turkic soldiers were different from ordinary Turks. The most obvious thing was that they were not wearing Turkic uniforms, but the armor of Great Tang soldiers!
The saber he used was also a Tang saber!
If not for the fact that they spoke Turkic, they would have looked no different from the soldiers of the Great Tang.
"What a vicious scheme!"
Li Xiaogong's heart turned cold as he said in a low voice,""Wearing the armor of the Great Tang's soldiers, they will be the vanguard. This way, no one along the way will be suspicious of them.”
"No wonder they appeared here so quickly," Li Yuan said solemnly.
Li Shentong sprawled on the ground and looked at the several thousand Turkic soldiers dressed in the uniforms of the Tang soldiers."Where did they get their armor?”
"I gave it to him," Li Chengdao said.”
“？？？？”
The four Regional Kings turned to look at him in bewilderment.'You gave it to me? Are you a Turkic Khagan or the Emperor of the Great Tang?'!
"Your Majesty, why did you do this?" Li Shentong could not help but ask.”
"If we don't do this, will they fall for it?”
Li Chengdao lay beside him and pointed at the nearby Turkic soldiers. He said in a tender voice,
"Look, aren't they here? He even swaggered and sat on the official road to rest without any guard?”
The four Regional Kings felt their scalps go numb.
This was too bold. If they weren't here, this cavalry might have arrived at Chang 'an without anyone knowing!
Li Shenfu stroked his long beard and whispered,"This tribe should be the vanguard of the Turks, with ten thousand soldiers, right?”
Li Chengdao shook his head." Not that much. At most 6,000. How can I not know how many armors I've given away?"”
Li Shenfu was speechless.
You're quite proud?
Li Xiaogong said in a low voice," This vanguard unit of the Turks is here to open up a path. Look at how tired they are, and it's clear that they haven't rested for the entire journey. What does this mean? It means that they want to launch a surprise attack!”
"There is a small path behind us. If they take that path, they will be able to reach Wugong County without being discovered.”
"Wugong County is at most a hundred miles away from Chang 'an.”
Li Yuan nodded in agreement and continued,"
"They probably killed everyone who saw them along the way.”
"This way, the army behind them can come here without being discovered.”
"To be able to have such insight and action, this subject can be sure that the person who came is definitely Jie Li Khan!”
Li Shentong and Li Shenfu looked at the two with admiration. No wonder Li Xiaogong was valued by the King of Qin and Li Yuan was regarded as a confidant by the Crown Prince. Their abilities were indeed impressive.
"Your Majesty, what should we do now?”Li Shentong glanced at the little emperor beside him and said in a low voice.
Li Shenfu, Li Xiaogong, and Li Yuan looked at Li Chengdao at the same time, their eyes filled with curiosity.
