Traveling through the Gaowu Tang Dynasty, Li Kuan and Li Shimin became the second sons of the Prince

Since the King of Chu has even thought about increasing the amount of money, there is nothing more for everyone to say: he can only count Tang Jian as unlucky.

"Your Highness, I broke one of his legs and he has been sent away." When everyone was about to continue discussing the dispatch of troops, Jiang Sheng walked in with a nonchalant expression and told Li Kuan.

Su Dingfang, who came in behind him, expressed the sadness and anger of a good man who was forced to go astray: "Your Highness, King Chu, this is not what happened..."

"Dingfang, follow me, you have to learn to get used to it." After hearing this, Li Kuan showed a smile on his face at this moment: "If you really talk about right and wrong, from the time when the Turkic cavalry went south to the Central Plains decades ago, From the moment, the conclusion has been made. Moreover, he, Jie Li, also knows very well how this war was caused, so the envoy he sent, I, the king, will kill them on the spot, so what can I do?"

"I can see it," Li Daozong didn't object to Li Kuan's words, but he also felt a little emotional: "In this prairie today, your King Chu's rules are the rules."

"This is exactly the reason!" His Royal Highness the King of Chu has always been very particular about doing his part: "The set of moral standards of the 'Five Constant Virtues' in the Central Plains will not work on the grasslands. The nomadic people naturally believe in a 'strong' The only truth is to be respected. Big fists are the only truth. In this case, why do I have to be so humble?" When Li Kuan said this, he raised his chin lightly and looked frivolous: "Besides, at this time, even if I am timid, A little bit may be seen as a sign of lack of confidence in one's own strength, but I am not that stupid." (Note 1)

"Oh, yes, yes, you are not stupid." Li Ji had nothing to say at this moment. He looked at His Highness the King of Chu, who was like a peacock spreading his tail, expressing his two-pole temperament to the extreme. He understood: This is You want to destroy all the enemies north of the Great Wall.

Don't worry about whether you can win or not. Anyway, you can't lose at all in terms of momentum.

"Your Highness, King of Chu, in that case, I will start deploying a battle plan according to your strategic policy." Li Jing is a pragmatist. Although he does not recommend that Li Kuan start a fight with all the foreign races at once, for Li Kuan However, he agreed with his analysis: as long as Jieli could be captured or killed before he defected to Tuyuhun, when the situation was settled, either Tuyuhun or Tubo would not necessarily have the courage to fall out with the Tang Dynasty.

However, for now, their only chance is that Jieli still hopes that sending Datang's Zhi Shisi will convince His Majesty Li Er to accept his surrender. In this way, although it will be embarrassing, he will Jieli will continue to be the Khan of the Eastern Turks after this, and he will still be able to enjoy his supreme dominance over this vast grassland.

"Tang Jian hasn't arrived at the Shaboluo tribe yet, so we still have a great chance." After Li Ji said these words, he was more or less likely to become a "King of Chu party member" - because his words were a reminder to those present. Everyone: Regardless of whether His Majesty agrees to Jieli's surrender, we want to show that "the general is outside, and the military orders are not obeyed." So the last time to capture Jieli this time is before Tang Jian leaves the Shaboluo tribe. .

"General Li, I plan to capture Jieli alive, take him back to the Turkic hinterland, and then let him go." As soon as Li Kuan said these words, there was silence in the place.

"Your Highness, you really want to reveal the truth..." Zhang Gongjin suddenly missed His Majesty Li Er who wanted to do some divination in advance during the rebellion. Damn it, the father was hesitant, and the son was hesitant. Call someone to kill decisively. As a result, the man who once criticized His Majesty Li Er for not being decisive enough is now trying to persuade his son to be steady!

"If I don't treat their sweat like a dog for a walk, how can I achieve peace once and for all? What's more, my father was wronged back then, and I, as a son, can't get it back for him?!" Li Kuan frowned. Staring at Zhang Gongjin: "If that's true, then what's the use of having a son?!"

broken……

As soon as His Highness King Chu said these words, everyone in the tent became even more confused.

This is a good thing to say. There is no father in this world who doesn't want to have such a good son.

But Your Highness King Chu, if these words come from your mouth...

Why is there something wrong somewhere?

Or to put it more bluntly: Why do I and others not believe it...

Could it be said that a clear spring can really be dug out of this smelly mud pond?

"Don't look at me like that!" Seeing that everyone was silent but with many words hidden in their eyes, Li Kuan immediately crossed his arms and said loudly: "To be fair, I am still very filial!"

"Hmm...cough cough...puff...cough cough..."

There was a sudden burst of coughing in the tent, mixed with a few uncontrollable laughter.

Yes, yes, to be fair, His Royal Highness the King of Chu is indeed a filial child.

This point is not only due to the fact that when His Royal Highness the King of Chu first came to Chang'an, he stubbornly kept filial piety for his grandmother, Queen Taimu, but also later when His Majesty Li Er launched the Xuanwu Gate Incident, this man was the first to dare to break into Tai Chi. The grandson knelt outside his grandfather's palace and recited the "Chen Qing Biao" loudly, not to mention that after that, he often visited the fallen emperor and talked and amused himself with his grandfather, which made the relationship between grandfather and grandson even deeper.

Can……

His Royal Highness the King of Chu is filial, but his filial piety has never been reflected in His Majesty...

Over the years, none of the generals in this camp, except Chai Shao, have ever returned to Chang'an. Even Xue Wanche, who returned briefly, did not hear His Majesty complain about the situation at home while discussing matters with His Majesty Li Er. Some one of them?

On weekdays, he teases cats and dogs to poke hornet's nests. When he is happy, he has to catch a few koi from the imperial garden and roast them to eat. When he is unhappy, it is even more outrageous. More than half of the weapons collected by His Majesty in the Wude Palace were lost in the hands of this uncle. , although most of them were recovered afterwards, but who can stand up to having such a tormenting master at home?

By the way, talking about this, I have to mention that the horse pole that accompanied His Majesty in the north and south is still stuck at the top of Dingxiang City!

Hmm... If we start from this point of view, His Royal Highness King Chu still has a little filial piety towards His Majesty, but certainly not much...

"My lords," Dou Shilun saw that King Chu Man was getting angry again. As a retainer, he immediately said seriously: "Don't make fun of me anymore. My highness is still very benevolent and filial."

"Ah, yes, yes, why did I forget this?" Li Ji nodded when he heard this, and then said with a smile: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu is not only filial, but also benevolent. By the way, what is His Highness's record now?"

"More than 10,000 people were killed in the formation outside Shuofang City. Adding up the large and small battles in the Turkic hinterland, there were more than 27,000 regular cavalry of Turkic people without casualties. In the battle of Dingxiang City, more than 30,000 people were killed." Among the retainers, this Shi Jiangqu glanced at Li Ji with a calm expression, and then began to report the achievements of King Chu: "Total of these, no matter how conservative the estimate is, there is still a battle of 70,000."
