Liang Li has long been confident about Zhang Miao's concerns, and he said confidently:

"Protector, please rest assured that someone has already made some arrangements!"

"For these days, I have been sending troops to attack the tribes that I have not been convinced, just to promote the prestige of our Protectorate. Have you seen it too? Are the other caves safer? Only Hualu Cave has been restless."

"So, this time, I not only sent our troops, but also had to send troops from other caves together. I can't let them sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight!"

Zhang Miao sighed and said, "You can deal with the matter of sending troops!"

"The Protector must not say this. This is the business of our Protectorate. Moreover, sending troops to Haikou and Hualudong also requires a name, so we cannot be punished without guilt!"

In fact, Liang Li still had some reservations. He concealed the inviting the Protectorate of Chameng to send troops, and attacked each other from front to back, and it was difficult for Hualudong to support it.

Liang Li naturally knew the importance of the name, and sending troops with justification can ensure high morale.

Moreover, most tribes and caves have always been in a state of drifting with the flow. When two sides fight, unless the interests are related, they will definitely sit idly by.

But if one side has a strong reason and takes the initiative, then most neutral forces will tend to the more positive side, thereby cutting off the absolute foreign aid.

Moreover, if the other party is not united within it, it can even make him turmoil without fighting. For example, Yuan Shu in the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period was entrenched in Huainan with hundreds of thousands of troops, but it collapsed in less than half a year because he became emperor. In that year, he was the second largest force behind Yuan Shao.

This is the power of nominality. Throughout history, all the two sides of the war had to find themselves a open and upright reason. Even if the Qing Dynasty entered the Central Plains, the reason was to avenge Emperor Chongzhen.

Sure enough, the Jiaozhou Protectorate issued an order requiring Chen Minggong and Ding's troops to go to Jiaozhou to report their work. Both were guilty and refused at the same time. Of course, they found many reasons.

However, the Jiaozhou Protectorate was waiting for this reply and quickly announced that the two were unjust and planned to send troops to attack, and called on the Jiaozhou Protectorate to carry out a conquest together.

When Ding Buling saw that you dared to turn against each other, he simply turned over the table and put forward a banner:

Avenge the King of Wu—

That's right, the leader of Ding's tribe issued a manifesto, directly determining that Wu Changwen was killed. As a minister, he had to take revenge and could only raise an army to attack the Jiaozhou Protectorate.

Moreover, like the Jiaozhou Protectorate, he also called on everyone to overthrow the Jiaozhou Protectorate.

As a result, throughout May, Li Jia was at the time of summer escape from Yuelu Mountain, and the Jiaozhou Protectorate suddenly had civil strife and fought.

However, except that the emperor is more concerned about it, whether it is the Political Affairs Hall or the Military Affairs Office, this is always ignored:

In their opinion, the Jiaozhou Protectorate was a remote place, and its rioters must be ignorant barbarians. The king's army would definitely be killed with one blow, without any surprise.

Of course, this is also related to the role of Jiaozhou. The Jiaozhou Protectorate was almost useless except for producing grain. However, the Tang Dynasty owned Lingnan, Jiangxi, Jiangning, and Shu, and basically all produced grain. Not to mention anything else, it was a lot of grain.

Therefore, its status can also be imagined.

"We must never ignore and despise the rebellion of the Jiaozhou Protectorate!"

Li Jia slapped the table and said seriously to the prime ministers.

Under the yellow curtains of the temple, the emperor's face became increasingly ugly.

"Don't forget that during the Liu Han period, Wu Quan raised an army and caused Annan to escape, so that it would be difficult to collect the land for decades!"

"This rebellion, the leader of Dingbu, was born after the Han and Barbarians. Not only did he have a strong foundation in the local area, but he had a long history of separatist people, but he also had the power to connect with other local forces. If this is not done well, the Jiaozhou Protectorate will no longer exist!"

Hearing this, Zhao Cheng immediately thought of the emperor's conferred King Xue from the beginning, relying on his merits to recover Annan. Although his territory has been expanded several times, it is still the emperor's place of success. If it is easily lost, it will be ugly.

"Your Majesty said so much!" Zhao Cheng immediately agreed: "Jiaozhou is the flank of Lingnan and belongs to the five-government area. Ma Hu cannot be ignored. For the sake of safety, I would like to send troops from the two prefectures in Lingdong and Lingxi to suppress the rebellion!"

"No!" Sun Zhao, who was standing by, immediately raised an objection: "There are not many soldiers in Lingnan. If it is transferred, the place will be difficult to stabilize. How can we go to Lingnan because of Jiaozhou?"

"Besides, the Jiaozhou area is remote and chaotic. If the soldiers in Lingnan leave, they may not be able to adapt to the local conditions and achieve half the result with twice the effort. I suggest that the Hailong Army can be sent to support!"

Sun Zhao's words are indeed reasonable and well-founded. It would be bad if he picked up sesame seeds and lost watermelons, but what is the matter with the dispatch of the Hailong Army?

"The Hailong Army is just a navy, so it is even more ridiculous to go to Jiaozhou!" Zhao Cheng immediately refuted and raised doubts for the emperor.

Li Jia looked at Sun Zhao again, waiting for his words.

"Your Majesty, although the Jiaozhou Protectorate is vast, its fertile land is a hundred miles away from Jiaozhou. The rest of the land is barren and has many mountains, which makes it difficult for the imperial court to govern, so they can only entrust Dongman."

Sun Zhao disregarded himself, raised his head proudly and said with a confident look:

"Since the Jiaozhou Protector is willing to send troops to attack, he will definitely have a chance of winning. So as to send people to help him guard Jiaozhou City, let him go south to fight for his throne!"

"Besides, even if the entire Jiaozhou army was wiped out, the imperial court still defended Jiaozhou City, so the Jiaozhou area could come back again. Although the Hailong Army was a navy, it should be possible to defend the city, and its ships had artillery, so it was even more defensive!"

"So, just send some sea dragon army!"

I have to admit that these words still make sense. As the prime minister, Zhao Cheng's face turned red in an instant, and then returned to his original state. The wind and clouds were calm and the face changed very quickly.

He is worthy of being the prime minister and has strong strength.

"Since that's the case, let the Hailong Army go. You can send about two or three thousand people to defend Jiaozhou City!"

Since there is a good and experienced decision, Li Jia highly recognizes it. It is true that he is planning the greatest interests at the lowest price. This group of prime ministers should not be underestimated!

In this way, money and food consumption are not worth mentioning, and the strength of the court is not enough to ensure overall comfort.

"Your Majesty is wise!" Several prime ministers exclaimed in unison, their voices were very nice, but Li Jia sounded like a routine.

"I'm going to play in the back mountain. Please sit down with you all!"

Li Jia waved his hand. Since he had made a decision, he had nothing to worry about.

"Hmph, Mr. Sun is really a good planner. He is worthy of being a pillar of the court!" Zhao Cheng said coldly, and the temperature in the Zhengshi Hall dropped several degrees instantly.
