The next day.
After the morning court session, Li Shimin left the palace with his ministers.
As the sun rose, they arrived outside the three training camps by the Jingshui River.
"Your son welcomes Imperial Father."
Li Ke and the other two were already waiting.
Li Shi Min walked out of the imperial carriage. He looked at his three sons and asked,"Are you ready?"
"I'm ready. If not for Father arriving late and waiting for Father, we would have ended long ago.”Li Ke replied loudly.
"Since you are ready, let's enter the camp.”Li Shi Min glanced at Li Ke. He couldn't be bothered to argue with this bastard. He slowly realized that this unlucky kid was like this.
The officials passed by Li Ke and couldn't help but look at him from the corner of their eyes.
After the soldiers saluted Li Shi Min, they cleared a space in the spacious camp.
"Chengqian, Green Sparrow heard that your two battalions are also participating. Are you confident?”While both sides were preparing, Li Shi Min asked casually.
"This time, the military is sparring. Moreover, Imperial Brother wants to use this opportunity to establish his might and lay a good foundation for the following training. As the elder brother, how can I destroy the younger brother's stage?”Li Chengqian replied humbly.
"Your son is the same."
Zhangsun Wuji stood at the side and nodded his head in satisfaction.
Li Shi Min looked at his two sons jokingly and ordered,"Later, the two of you will personally go and explain to the soldiers in your respective camps that we must go all out in this battle.”
"Let your good-for-nothing brother suffer some setbacks.”
The Li Chengqian duo was stunned.
The words just now were just words, in order to win Li Ke in the end, to show Li Ke's camp's incompetence.
At the same time, he had to pretend to be a respectful brother in front of his father.
Slightly stunned, the two of them hurriedly accepted the order.
At this moment, the soldiers of the two battalions entered the spacious space in the middle.
"Does Your Majesty really want to teach His Highness Ke a lesson?”
"I don't know."
……
As the officials discussed, Li Ke saw Li Chengqian and Li Chengqian walking towards him after giving their orders.
"Royal brother, we originally wanted to help you establish your prestige so that we could enter the training later, but father forbade it.”Li Tai was the first to speak with a troubled expression.
Li Ke was amused.
He bowed and thanked them." I will remember the intentions of the Crown Prince and my brother. I know that this is Father's intention to teach me a lesson. It has nothing to do with you."”
"You can't say that. It's father who wants to motivate you.”Li Chengqian spoke up for Li Shimin.
"It's all the same, it's all the same."
After sending off the two bad birds pretending to be merciful, Li Ke cupped his hands at the captain leading the team.
Five hundred steps apart, about a mile away.
The lieutenant also cupped his hands.
"Beat the drum!" Li Shi Min ordered.
Beep beep beep…
The dull sound of war drums rang out.
"According to the plan, we'll first gang up on the people from the Crown Prince's Battalion!”Li Ke whispered to Cheng Chumo.
"Yes, sir!"
"Kill them!" Cheng Chumo held a wooden stick and led 300 people to rush towards the opposite side.
"Kill them!"
The 400 men from the opposing battalion charged forward.
"Eh, why didn't His Highness Ke send his entire army? This is just a small scale confrontation of four hundred people.”
"Great General, do you know the purpose of Your Highness's actions?”
"I don't know."
……
While everyone was puzzled, the two sides finally collided.
"Why is this battalion in such a mess?”
"Are they still the elites of my left and right martial guards?”
"Your Majesty, Cheng Zhijie and Hou Junji are guilty. They've been in charge of the Left and Right Guards for years, and what kind of soldiers have they trained?”
……
The officials saw that the two sides had come into contact, and the opponents of the Wu Army had quickly fallen into chaos. They were shocked and furious, and they began to impeach Hou Junji and Cheng Yaojin.
Zhangsun Wuji's face had already turned pale.
He understood now!
Although the entire scene was chaotic, it could still be vaguely distinguished that it was chaotic!
Cheng Chumo's 300 men attacked the leftmost camp.
The reinforcement from the King of Wei's camp was very small, it was more like a show, watching coldly from the side.
Only the soldiers of the Wu King's Battalion who had not been bribed and trained by Li Ke did their best to support them. However, at this time, Li Ke led a hundred men and pressed forward, staring at this group of people who wanted to support as a distraction.
Those who didn't understand were mostly civil officials of lower ranks.
Most of them understood.
"How is this possible?"
"How could this be!"
"Li Ke is targeting me, why is he only targeting my troops!”
Li Chengqian watched as the soldiers of his Crown Prince Battalion fell one after another. In the end, he could not control his emotions. His face was flushed with anger as he clenched his fists and muttered to himself.
Humph!
Li Shi Min snorted coldly and said,"Ancestors, tell the Crown Prince and the King of Wei!”
Sigh!
Zhangsun Wuji sighed. He knew that the Emperor had also vented his anger on him.
"Crown Prince, His Highness Ke was worried that if he spoke directly to you, you would think that he had ulterior motives. He used his own unique method to vaguely remind you that there was a problem with your training.”
Zhangsun Wuji's words attracted the attention of the officials.
Cheng Yaojin whispered to Qin Qiong and Niu Jinda beside him,""That old fox, the auxiliary machine, is always able to turn the awkwardness into something so pleasant.”
Qin Qiong duo couldn't help but smile, but they couldn't help but admire Zhangsun Wuji's resourcefulness.
"His Highness Ke allowed the soldiers of the three battalions to participate. The reason why the soldiers of the three battalions are in a mess now is because of the two of you.”
"Green Sparrow, take a look. The Crown Prince's Battalion is being attacked fiercely. What are your troops doing? It was the soldiers of the King Wu's camp who were desperately supporting them.”
"His Highness Ke wants to tell you that you are training for the court, not to engage in factional strife in the army and weaken our soldiers!”
"Chengqian, look at your soldiers of the Crown Prince's Battalion. They fought very bravely, but didn't you see anything?”
"They don't trust each other, and they don't dare to hand their backs to their comrades. Uncle heard about your training methods. Your harsh training methods have filled the comrades with hostility and hatred!”
……
Zhangsun Wuji looked like an uncle lecturing his nephew as he earnestly advised him.
In reality, he felt bitter. He realized it too late.
Li Ke was reminding everyone that they couldn't continue training like this, or else their combat strength would collapse.
At the same time, he had slapped his two nephews in public!
It was just that Li Ke had this intention, but he could not reveal it in his words at this time.
That would make him look petty and petty!
After Li Chengqian and Li Tai heard this, they turned around and looked at the battlefield.
The Prince's Battalion had fallen to the ground.
Currently, Li Ke was besieging the remaining soldiers of the King of Wei and King of Wu's camps.
The Wu Wang Battalion had suffered great losses during the rescue mission.
They had no advantage in numbers, and their morale plummeted. They were surrounded and killed by Li Ke and the others.
Failure was inevitable!
"Do you understand what your uncle said?”Li Shi Min's expression was cold. He no longer looked at the battlefield, but at Li Chengqian and Li Qinglong.
The ministers were frightened as cicadas in winter.
No one had expected things to develop to this point.
He had brought the filth between the princes onto the table.
Thud!
Li Chengqian and the other man knelt down in panic.
"I've affected the unity of the soldiers in order to compete with Imperial Brother," Li Tai said regretfully while sobbing.”
"Your son is the same. Your son is not worthy of being an elder brother, much less the crown prince. Imperial Father, please remove your son from his position as the crown prince.”After Li Chengqian finished speaking calmly, he knocked his head heavily on the ground.
The ministers 'expressions changed.
"It's good that you recognize your mistakes. The Crown Prince and the King of Wei have been dismissed from their duties as soldiers and returned to their respective residences to reflect on their mistakes. The three battalions will be merged, and the left and right military guards will be scattered and reorganized!”
"Prince Battalion's General Liu Rengui, as a general, will not care about the soldiers and will be demoted to Lieutenant. He will be transferred out of the Left Military Guard and appointed elsewhere!”
"Wu Wangke is fully responsible for the new training of the military guards!”
Li Shiming gave out orders one after another, and even Zhangsun Wuji's expression changed.
He had not expected the Emperor to punish him so severely this time.
The Left and Right Guards had been scattered and reorganized, and Hou Junji's years of management were over.
Liu Rengui had been kicked out of the left and right guards and would probably be transferred out of the capital.
Li Chengqian and the other two had completely lost the right to train soldiers!
No one had expected the Emperor's punishment to be so severe.
The ministers exchanged glances quietly, and no one dared to speak.
For a time, only the shouts and killing sounds in the central arena lingered in everyone's ears.
