Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Page 2141

Zhang Liang was unreasonable, and said: "So, the Duke of Qin cannot be blamed for this defeat. It is even very possible that Duke Qin colluded with Goguryeo or the King of Qi, which is why these two appointments were made."

Li Ji said angrily: "Nonsense! What can Goguryeo give Qin Guogong, is it worth him to betray Datang? As for King Qi... Qin Guogong is already the crown prince. He just needs to be loyal to the crown prince step by step. King Qi's stinky feet?"

"Uh... Qin Guogong is the most lustful, maybe someone promised him some peerless beauty?"

His Majesty Li Er waved his hand, and said: "Needless to say, I believe in Duke Qin. If it is said that he recommended the two of you for the job with some selfish intentions, I do believe it. But if it is said that he betrayed me, that is absolutely impossible."

Zhang Liang said angrily: "Even if he is loyal to His Majesty, but he made improper recommendation and was responsible for the failure of the Eastern Expedition, so he didn't run away?"

"That's...that's true."

"In that case, why doesn't Your Majesty let him commit crimes and meritorious deeds?"

His Majesty Li Er hadn't answered yet, Guo Ye knelt down on his way out of the class, and said: "I am willing to cut off the empress for the army, I hope Your Majesty will allow it!"

Chapter 1958

Guo Ye offered to cut off the empress, but he was not provoked by Zhang Liang. He really felt that he was indeed responsible for the failure of the Eastern Expedition this time.

In addition to what Zhang Liang said, Xue Yantuo was deceived and the recommendation was improper.There is another very important reason, that is, I misjudged Yuan Nanjian!

When I first met this person, I beat him into a cripple.Since then, deep in my heart, I have looked down on this person.I don't think he has any patience at all.

That's why Yuan Nanjian's act of killing his father happened.

Unexpectedly, this person is more difficult to deal with than Yuan Gai Suwen in history!Send Jiang Yumei to assassinate, send envoys to contact Khitan, and now promote the alliance of the three countries.Which one is not a stroke of genius?

I simply went to a hungry wolf, but ushered in a fierce tiger!

In history, His Majesty Li Er's Eastern Expedition, although he returned without success, was mainly caused by the loss of horses and money, and the soldiers who went out suffered little casualties.

Because of his own mistakes, the [-] navy army was wiped out, and the [-] army army did not know whether it would be able to escape.

Shouldn't he be responsible for killing so many people?

Let's break the queen, if someone else cuts the queen, it may really be close to death.But I have a red rabbit horse, and I have the ability to be invulnerable.There may not be any danger.

Thinking of this, Guo Ye took the initiative to invite Ying.

His Majesty Li Er didn't know the twists and turns in his heart, and said: "This is really... why did it come to this! Why did it come to this! The mistakes that Duke Xun said can only be regarded as accidental mistakes, you don't have to take it to heart. "

Guo Ye shook his head and said: "I have made up my mind, and I hope His Majesty will allow it."

Li Jidao: "If you want to say who is suitable for the queen, Qin Guogong really does his part. If you let someone else cut the queen, I really don't feel at ease."

"Uh...let me think twice."

Guo Yedao: "The people of Goguryeo are well-versed in the road. Even if someone intercepts them, it may be difficult to stop all the pursuers. And Weichen has a good reputation in Goguryeo. If Weichen leads the troops, they may try their best to deal with Weichen and win for the army. time."

His Majesty Li Er pondered for a while, and said: "Okay, just follow what Qin Guogong said. However, you remember, if you can't do something, you must leave it to a useful body, and you can't die lightly. I will come up with enough money. Sincerity, exchange with Goguryeo. Just in case, in case..."

"how?"

"If it really doesn't work, I promise you to surrender Yuan Nanjian."

Guo Ye smiled wryly and said: "Your Majesty, the hatred between my minister and Yuan Nanjian is irreconcilable. If he catches me, I'm afraid I can't ask for death, so what's the exchange and surrender? But don't worry, Yuan Nanjian It's not that easy to catch me! Weichen still wants to go back to Chang'an to receive the reward."

Having said that, he turned his head again, and said to Li Daozong: "King Jiang Xia, don't forget, you have to prepare 1000 million yuan for me. You will have to cash it when you go back next time."

Seeing Guo Ye take over the mission of narrow escape, Li Daozong felt a little bit unbearable.In the final analysis, he and Guo Ye are only conflicts among the people, and they are still consistent in their allegiance to the Tang Dynasty and dealing with Goguryeo.

He said: "Don't worry, the old man can afford to win and lose. As long as you can return to Chang'an, 1000 million yuan will be given with both hands."

His Majesty Li Er said: "Duke Qin, don't worry, as soon as you return to Chang'an, I will help you recover the debt. If you...are really unlucky, the 1000 million yuan will also be given to your family."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Guo Ye bowed and said, "How many soldiers and horses will your Majesty give me to stop the enemy?"

"Uh... How about 5000 people?"

Guo Ye shook his head and said, "Too many!"

"many?"

"That's right. When it comes to intercepting and chasing soldiers, the difference between 5000 and 2000 is actually not that big. But when it comes to running away, the difference between 5000 and 2000 is too big. I still want to bring all my brothers back to Chang'an." Woolen cloth."

His Majesty Li Er thinks about it too, no matter how many people are left behind, they can't stop the Goguryeo people from detouring.Even on the way back from the Tang army, it is hard to say whether there were any ambushes.

People can even leave some people to monitor Guo Ye's soldiers and horses, while others continue to pursue them.

It is simply an impossible task to stop it completely.

Guo Ye's idea of ​​​​intercepting the enemy is nothing more than using himself as a bait to let the enemy concentrate on dealing with himself and give up intercepting the main force.In that case, too many troops may really become a burden.

Could this plan be successful?

It's really possible!Regardless of Guo Ye's reputation in the land of the Three Koreas, just personal grievances have a great chance of winning!

It was Guo Ye who made Yuan Nanjian incompetent; it was Guo Ye who hated Fu Yuzhang for taking his wife.There is a great opportunity to seize Guo Ye, how can they miss it?

He said: "Okay, then I will leave two thousand elite soldiers for you. You must come back alive for me."

"Borrow Your Majesty's auspicious words."

Without further ado, now that a decision has been made, it is necessary to act quickly.Just after dawn, His Majesty Li Er began to select soldiers.

Not for those who are already married, not for the only child in the family, not for the eldest son, not for the first son.The eldest son and the first son may inherit the family business, and I am afraid they will spare their lives.Those who are already married and the only son in the family are the pillars of the family. For the sake of the family, it is inevitable to have other distractions.

Pick out these people, and the rest are sergeants who have nothing to worry about and can fight to the death.

An hour later, the selection of two thousand elite soldiers was completed.

Then, the army began to break out of camp and set off.Now the food in the camp is only enough for about ten days, so there is really no delay.

With little effort, there were only 2000 people left in the huge camp.Despite the psychological preparations, a feeling of being abandoned still rippling through the crowd.

Guo Ye walked up to the crowd and said loudly, "Do you know who I am?"

"See Duke Qin!"

"Okay, it's easy for everyone to know Mr. Guo. From today on, you will share the joys and sorrows with me. Now, please tell me, what kind of person am I?"

"A young man succeeds, he rises to the top!"

"Invincible in attack, invincible in battle!"

"Caught Jieli Khan alive!"

"Rich is the enemy of the country!"
