Chapter twenty-eight bold ideas

Li Zhi was very excited. There was an impulse to be a little bitch. At the age of thirteen, many people had dreams of heroism or some impulsive and curious thoughts, even if they were princes, they were no exception.

Furthermore, Li Zhi felt that this was an opportunity, an opportunity to show his face to gain credit. When chaos arises in Hedong, as a prince, if he can remain calm in the face of danger and live in Jinyang, it would not be a credit to ensure that Hedong does not have random calculations?

As King of Jin, Hedong was to some extent his fiefdom, and now he also serves as the Hedong Road promotion and demotion envoy. It is logical that he has an obligation to take responsibility for the affairs of Hedong.

Li Zhi, who was about to become an adult, felt very responsible and wanted to stand up like a man. He didn't want to be criticized for being worried and afraid of things.

So he has a completely newborn calf who is not afraid of a tiger, and is quite firm and very excited.

Xie Yi had no idea at first. No matter what chaos occurs in Hedong, he can protect Li Zhi and escape calmly with his current strength. Li Ji will definitely protect Li Zhi's safety first and will not let him miss it in the slightest, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to Emperor Li Shimin.

However, Chang'an is worried that if the Xueyantuo people and the Turks united to cross the Yellow River and went south to Chang'an. Guanzhong is now empty and it is easy to be broken through. If something goes wrong in Chang'an, God knows what will happen.

Xie Yi, the old emperor and the Tang Dynasty, did not consider the first thing he cared about. He cared about his family, especially the two pregnant wives were in Chang'an, which made Xie Yi very nervous, so he subconsciously thought about either how to avoid this disaster or send someone to Chang'an to properly resettle Du Xijun and Zheng Liwan.

Xie Yi was more inclined to the latter, after all, this was easy to do, but after Li Zhi said this, Xie Yi couldn't help but ponder, maybe he should have chosen the former.

And this may be an excellent opportunity for Li Zhi.

During his trip to Hedong, Li Zhishi appeared in front of the court officials. Many people noticed His Highness King Jin, at least he is no longer a child. But what about that? Li Zhi had almost no size or specialty, and he still looked overshadowed in front of many excellent princes. How can people look at him differently and walk in front of the world?

I said before coming to Hedong that Li Zhi needed an opportunity, and an opportunity to officially enter the political stage of the Tang Dynasty. Now the opportunity seems to be coming, shouldn’t it be seized?

But Li Ji seemed to object, and only heard him say: "Your Highness's daughter's body should not stand in a dangerous place. It is better to retreat to a safe place south of the Yellow River as soon as possible. It is more appropriate to go to Luoyang."

There is no doubt that Li Ji has a heavy responsibility. First of all, he must ensure the safety of the entire Hedong, and even be ready to serve the king at any time, so he is not distracted. Furthermore, the safety of the prince is crucial. If something goes wrong, even if the Xueyantuo people are successfully blocked, it will be difficult for the emperor to explain.

"Duke of Britain, is the situation that serious?" Before Xie Yi could speak, Li Zhi said calmly: "Even if it is really serious, I can leave, but can the millions of soldiers and civilians in Hedong leave?

If they knew that I was in a hurry to leave, wouldn’t they be very panicked? Will the morale of the army be shaken? I cannot be a sinner."

"But……"

Li Ji was a little surprised. He did not expect that the young King of Jin had such a clear insight and courage. He was fearless for the sake of the overall situation. This was very good. Li Ji admired this very much, but the emperor's identity as a legitimate emperor was particularly noble. He did not dare to be careless, nor did he dare to take risks. Therefore, his eyes for help fell on Xie Yi, hoping that Xie Changshi could persuade King of Jin.

"Don't worry, your highness is right. If you temporarily lose contact with Chang'an and have no intention, don't act rashly."

Li Ji never expected that Xie Yi had such an attitude and had no objection at all, and what he had not expected was still to come.

Xie Yixu said: "And maybe it is urgent. We should think of some solutions to deal with the current crisis."

This is not bad, and it is reasonable and responsible. After all, Li Zhi and Xie Yi are the chief and deputy envoys of Hedongdao, and the power to deal with military and political affairs involving Hedongdao. What's more, Li Zhi is the King of Jin, the Grand Governor of Bingzhou, and the soldiers and horses of Bingzhou should theoretically be all assigned by him, at least they have the power to involve these matters.

Li Ji sighed and said, "At present, I have sent a scout to closely monitor the situation of the enemy in Dingxiang and the grassland, and sent someone to take a detour to Chang'an to inform the news, so that the court can be prepared."

Xie Yi asked, "Can you do something to send troops from Hedong?"

Li Ji pondered for a moment and said, "Unless Ashinasmo had no abnormal movements, he mobilized troops from Hedong to block Yi Nan in the direction of Baidao and Ruozhenshui. But the premise is that Ashinasmo's troops did not move, otherwise the army would be cut off from the rear and attacked from north to south, which would be very dangerous."

this……

According to Li Ji, this matter is difficult to handle and not very easy to operate.

Xie Yi was silent. He recalled that in the early Tang Dynasty, except for the Turkic army heading south to Guanzhong and drinking Ma Wei River in the ninth year of Wude, there were cases of grassland troops heading south to siege Chang'an. Xue Yantuo was not listed here. If you remember correctly, Xue Yantuo was completely destroyed during the Zhenguan period.

Moreover, it should be in the middle of Zhenguan period, and only after the north was calm, Li Shimin dared to mobilize troops to expedition to Liaodong, otherwise the fire in the backyard would be very serious.

Under such circumstances, Xue Yantuo's disaster should not be very serious, nor would it endanger Chang'an. Therefore, it is very likely to find a way to calm down, which means it is a great opportunity to give it a try.

Opportunities are in front of you, and you should cherish them.

After a moment, Xie Yi made a very important decision and asked in a deep voice: "Duke of England, how much do you know about Asunasmo? Is it possible to stabilize him or pull him back now?"

"Asina Smo is brave and good at fighting. He was originally the first-class military general on the grassland. However, now he is old and the Turks are defeated, so he is probably a little gentle and a little suspicious."

Li Jisisuo said: "If it were an opportunity, this was an opportunity. If he was more decisive, he would rebel now. He would move his troops south first and follow Xue Yantuo followed. We might not even have the opportunity to discuss countermeasures, so we would have to mobilize troops to help the king.

There are still some troops and horses in Hedong that can be mobilized. It is estimated that the troops of the Prince of Jiangxia in Lingzhou will be restrained by the Western Turks if nothing unexpected happens. I even suspect that this matter is even related to the Tubo people who invaded Songzhou in the southwest."

It’s a very complicated situation, and it’s a whole body that can move one’s body. Now it seems that someone is really pushing a needle and uniting these people’s forces to fight against the Tang Dynasty.

However, the final key point fell on Dingxiang and Ashinasmo.

Through Li Ji's description, Xie Yi understood that Asuna Smo is old and as the most surrendered general among the Turkic generals, he will inevitably be suspicious of the Tang Dynasty.

Even if he is enthroned as a prince, he will feel uneasy and walk on thin ice. In this case, people will become more suspicious, indecisive, or at least not decisive. This information analysis is more accurate. Can Li Shimin feel at ease by releasing Ashinasimo to the Dingxiang grassland?

In addition to letting Li Ji monitor him, there must be many secret whistles lurking around him, and he has a relatively confidential understanding of his personality and daily situation.

In addition, Xue Yantuo is not a good-looking person. In the past, he was also in harmony with the Turks, and even opposed each other. Even if he cooperates, it is difficult for the two enemies to completely let go of their past grudges and knots, and soon became intimate, and there was no way to talk about absolute trust between each other.

This is also the reason why Ashinasmo did not cross the Yellow River in advance and went south to attack Chang'an. It was just an excuse that the Yellow River had not completely frozen. What he was mainly afraid of was to be used by Xue Yantuo and eventually become cannon fodder.

If the Xueyantuo people did not follow up in time, as the leader of the alien race who rebelled against the Tang Dynasty, he would definitely have no way to survive. Even if he conquered Chang'an, both sides would inevitably suffer losses. The Xueyantuo people who followed him could calmly strangle them and reap the benefits of the fisherman.

Asunasmo had such concerns and was cautious, so he was reluctant to take action. Even if the news leaked, he was still willing to miss the opportunity.

The unreliable alliance, Yourou's unconscious time just gave Tang Jun a chance to obstruct him.

"Duke of the British, since this is the case, if I can find a way to hold Ashinasmo and make him hesitate, can you lead your troops to block the Yi Nan?" Xie Yi immediately put forward a bold idea.

"Xie Changshi is sure that he can do it?" Li Ji's eyes lit up and he was a little excited. This was obviously speaking to his heart.

Xie Yi nodded and said, "I'm sure!"

Li Ji smiled and said, "If I guarantee that the Turkic people in Dingxiang will not move, I will not have to worry about being blocked from the back. I can attack quickly and block before Ashinasmo comes back to his senses, or even defeat Xueyantuo."

"Maybe...it can destroy Xue Yantuo in one fell swoop and achieve great achievements."

Xie Yi said something, which immediately shocked Li Ji and even the King of Jin Li Zhi, who was beside him, as if there was no crisis in front of him, and it was even an eternal opportunity to destroy Xue Yantuo and unify the northern grasslands.

"I dare to ask Xie Changshi what method he can do, and I am sure that he can stabilize Asuna Smo?" Li Ji was still somewhat suspicious, as if he was not very confident.

Xie Yi pondered for a moment, turned around and looked at Li Zhi, and asked softly: "Your Highness, do you dare to walk along the Dingxiang grassland with me?"

"What, do you want to bring Your Highness King Jin with you?" Li Ji's expression changed instantly. He looked like you were crazy and said loudly: "Xie Changshi, this matter must not be done. It would be fine if His Highness King Jin's daughter stayed in Jinyang, how dare he go to the dangerous place on the grassland?

What if you encounter a thrilling situation or are held hostage by Asunasmo, Yi Nan and others? How can you and I explain it to Your Majesty?"

Li Ji's reaction was completely reasonable. The emperor's favorite young son, a thirteen-year-old boy, asked him to go to the sword and the most dangerous front line at such a dangerous moment.

He may be killed at any time or taken hostage. This is indeed unreasonable and he may even be a little crazy.

"Duke of England, I'm serious!" Xie Yi was very calm, turned around and looked at Li Zhi, and asked softly: "Your Highness, do you believe in your subject?"

For many years, the trust and worship that Xie Yi cultivated in Li Zhi's heart played a role. In addition to some personal factors, Li Zhi nodded and said, "I believe that I dare to go."

"Xie Changshi..." Li Ji still spoke out to stop him. He did not dare to take such a risk.

Xie Yi said: "Duke of England, I am the chief minister of the King of Jin. How could I harm Your Highness when I see His Highness grow up? Now the situation is critical. Once the Turks conspire with the Xueyantuo people, Chang'an is in danger. Your Majesty and millions of subjects are there, my pregnant wife is there, and Duke of England, your family is also in Chang'an. How can we ignore it?"

This passage sounds righteous, but it does not emphasize how serious the crisis in Chang'an is, but to convey a message to Li Ji, telling him that he would not harm Li Zhi.

After all, Kan Ling and Du Xijun have special identities, and Li Ji may guess his motives, but if he is a hostage to him, he will definitely not do anything wrong. As the chief of the Jin royal palace, a large part of his future investment is on King Li Zhi of Jin, and he will not make any mistakes with Li Zhi's life, so he is sure.

"You really have to take Your Highness King Jin?" Although he was still questioning, Li Ji's attitude obviously changed a little.

Xie Yi said: "Asnasmo is suspicious. If it were just me, he might not believe it; but it would be different if His Highness followed him. His Majesty's favorite prince dared to go to Dingxiang calmly, which shows that the court is fully prepared and fearless. Asansmo is inevitably suspicious, so he is undecided and buys time for you Duke of England."

"Can this point be used alone to scare Ashinasmo?" Li Ji obviously didn't believe it. Although Li Zhi's status was precious, such abnormal behavior would indeed make the suspicious Ashinasmo feel up and down. But it is an indisputable fact that Chang'an is empty. If Ashinasmo is determined and willing to take risks, the consequences... it is not only a few words that can be described by unimaginable.

"Of course these alone are not enough. Guanzhong is also a fact, but if there is an elite or particularly powerful weapon at this time, can it shock the Turks?"

"Magic weapon? What weapon?" Li Ji was curious. He had heard that Huaiyang County had a lot of ideas, and he didn't know if there was any unexpected idea this time, which could intimidate the brave and good at fighting Turks in one fell swoop?

Xie Yi pondered: "Give me some time, and I will show you the British Duke tomorrow. If you use it properly, it will at least act as a deterrent."

"Sure?"

"How dare you joke about emergency military information and the safety of the Tang Dynasty?"

Hearing Xie Yi's answer, Li Ji nodded slightly, as if he agreed, pondered for a moment and asked, "Xie Changshi, you have figured it out clearly, this move..."

Li Ji did not say it clearly, but Xie Yi knew in his heart that this move was really risky. If it succeeded, it would be good, but if it failed, it would not only be his life or death. Li Zhi was in danger. How could Li Shimin forgive himself regardless of life or death?

At that time, Du Xijun and Zheng Liwan who are in Chang'an will probably be implicated, so the risk is quite high.
