Chapter 753 The Battle for Military Power

"Your Highness, I think this is a good thing!"

Li Xian has a call. Di Renjie and Zhang Jianzhi both came very quickly. After listening to the brief introduction, Zhang Jianzhi, who had always been impatient, gave a high-five and gave a positive judgment with a slightly excited tone.

"Well, what does Di Gong think?"

Li Xian obviously had a conclusion in his heart, but he was not in a hurry to show it, but nodded quietly and threw the problem to Di Renjie.

"Your Highness, I think that what Brother Meng said is the same. Although this Turkic mutiny is a hindrance to the community, it is also beneficial to Your Highness. After this, even if the Empress wants to adjust Hexi, she can't get it. As for the Turkic departments, grass bandits, although its momentum is great, it is not difficult to lose. For those who is worried, who is the only going to take charge of the expedition."

Di Renjie's view is obviously consistent with Zhang Jianzhi's, but he is much more cautious in the analysis. Although he believes that the situation is beneficial to the prince, he vaguely points out that there may be disputes in the next DPRK, who will be in charge of the military seal.

"Well, I want to hang this handsome seal, but unfortunately I can't. It's not just that I'm hopeless. I'm afraid that people who are close to me will have a chance. Well, Liu Xiang is a usable candidate. What do you think?"

Li Xian actually remembers that in his previous life, there was also a large-scale riot/riot on the Mongolian grassland. Almost during this period, the general cause was the same. It was all because after the death of Ashina Daozhen, there was no unified leader on the prairie. Under the disarren people, he gave all kinds of ambitions an opportunity to take advantage of it. This is the trouble of the frontier of the battlefield. At that time, the Tang army was also unfavorable in the first battle. In the end, Pei Xingjian personally took charge of the expedition and the thunder swept the cave. In just a few months, the turmoil that swept the whole Mongolian grassland calmed down. However, the current situation in this world has been completely different. Gao Zong has been sick. Looking at that, I'm afraid that the rest of the days will have to be spent on the sickbed. At this delicate moment, Li Xian can't help but think about grabbing military power. Although he knew that the generals on his side were unlikely to win the position, he was unwilling to push out Liu Rengui, the potential secret direct line to fight for it.

"Lou Gong is a great talent, but he regrets that he is old, and he is afraid that he will be sad. If it falls into the hands of the king of Yue because of his military power, it is not beautiful. The old minister thinks he should be cautious."

Li Xian's mind is really too obvious. Zhang and Di are both resourceful people. How can they not see it? The difference is that Di Renjie is not in a hurry to advise, while Zhang Jianzhi pointed out the unworkability of this proposal without hesitation.

"Well, how about Li Boyao? His department is in Youzhou, which is exactly the key to the expedition to the desert, and his position is already the governor. It's just right to be the commander-in-chief.

Liu Rengui is already 80 years old, and Li Xianzi also knows that it is a little reluctant for him to go on an expedition. Hearing that Zhang Jianzhi so resolutely rejected his own proposal, he could not insist on it any more, so he changed his personal choice, which clearly wanted to take the general's power in his hands.

"Although Governor Li is a military talent, he and His Highness have the name of a master and apprentice. Even if the court can pass, His Majesty and the Empress will never be accurate. Now His Highness must take stability first. It is not appropriate to make sidelines, and everything is important to prevent the military power from falling into the hands of the king of Yue."

As soon as he heard that Li Xian was so obsessed with military power, Zhang Jianzhi couldn't help admonished him with a lesson, and almost pointed to Li Xian's nose and said that he was too impetuous.

"Your Highness, what Brother Meng said is very true. This time there is chaos in the Turks, and it is inevitable to send troops. In terms of its scale, it should be not small. It is necessary to prevent the Empress and the king of Yue from granting each other privately. I think that the overall situation is important. It is appropriate to take a neutral name to go on an expedition. Pei Xingjian and Pei Xiang, or Xue Rengui and Xue are all available candidates. This minister's foolish opinion, please think twice.

Di Renjie's words are relatively euphemistic, but the meaning is very clear, that is, he is to persuade Li Xian not to lose the big because of the small. If he blindly fights for military power, he will not only be attacked by the Hou Party and the Yue Wang Party, but also attract Gao Zong's suspicion. After all, the matter of Hexi has not yet been decided, and there is no need to go. It's out of the branches.

"Well, then it's better to be Pei Xiang."

Li Xianzi also knew that his idea of seeking military power was a little anachronistic. He was just unwilling to make trouble. He thought that he could get some strong support from the two counselors, but at this time, the two counselors opposed it. No matter how unwilling he was, he could only make a renouncement...

Just after the Lantern Festival, although the weather was particularly cold, Li Zhen, the king of Yue, was in a good mood. Despite the coldness that the snow had just stopped, she only put on a piece of fox coat shoulder and happily enjoyed the plum blossoms in the back garden. Listening to the words of the attendants, Li Zhen was extremely happy with a smile, not only the beautiful scenery in front of her. What's more is that because of the smoothness of the court situation, when the layout of the chaotic Hexi military array has suddenly been launched, Li Zhen's heart is as sweet as honey. Taking advantage of this rare Xun holiday, she also played the trick of vassal elegance and had a good time.

"Father, something big has happened!"

The happy time is always short. Well, before the ladies have written a few oil poems, Li Chong, dressed in a uniform, hurriedly broke in from the garden gate, kicked all the way into the snow, jumped to Li Zhen, and breathlessly reported.

"Hmm?"

Li Zhen rarely relaxed last time. As soon as she got excited, she was disturbed by Li Chong. She didn't look good, and she didn't ask a question. She just snorted coldly from her nose. Obviously, she was quite dissatisfied with Li Chong's reckless measures.

"Father, the Turks have rebelled. In the twenty-four states of the military, Xiao Siye has been defeated in a row. He can't support it. The military report has just arrived!"

It was a matter of great importance. Although he knew that Li Zhen was in a bad mood, Li Chong still did not dare to hide it, so he hurriedly bowed and said the news he knew in an urgent tone.

"What?"

As soon as he heard the Turkic rebellion, Li Zhen couldn't sit still. Huo Ran stood up, stared, and hurriedly asked.

"It's true. The child was on duty at the military headquarters today. Fang rushed back as soon as he learned the news. Now the military newspaper has been sent to the Empress."

As soon as he saw his father shocked, Li Chong did not dare to neglect him a little and hurriedly explained.

"Well, go, call Mr. Chen and Shoude, and he is still stunned. Go!"

Li Zhen frowned and meditated for a moment. Suddenly, she felt that there was infinite space for operation. Her heart couldn't help but move. Huo Ran raised her eyebrows, stamped her feet, and suddenly roared at Li Chong.

"Ah, Nuo, I'm going now."

Li Chong was waiting for his father to speak in a daze. He was suddenly shouted by Li Zhen, and his heart was in a panic. How dare he ask more? He answered in a hurry and rushed to the front yard with the snow.

"..., Mr. Chen, Shoude, that's the situation. If you have any opinions, just say it."

Since Li Zhen was called, Chen Wushuang and Pei Shoude came quickly, but in a moment, they had gathered in the study room in the inner courtyard. After seeing the ceremony, Li Zhen briefly described the military situation discovered by Li Chong, and then threw the problem to the two.

"In the prince's words, my son-in-law thought that the Turks had changed. For me, the King of Yue, it can be said that there are mixed feelings and worries. The plan reached with the Empress a few days ago to dismember Hexi may be annihilated. Those who are happy, the right to use the army can be fought for this time. If the prince can personally take charge of the expedition, the big thing can be settled!"

Although Li Zhen did not express her own opinion, Pei Shoude saw Li Zhen's intention and hurriedly said the welcome opinion.

"Father, I think what Mr. Pei said is very true. With the great talent of my father, he will definitely win a complete victory. I am willing to be the vanguard."

Li Chong has always regarded himself very high. When he first entered Beijing, he had thought about competing with Li Xian in martial arts. Unfortunately, he never got a lot of fighting. Over the years, he has been suffocated in Beijing. At this time, he heard Pei Shoude's words and didn't think about the mystery, so he couldn't wait to jump out and volunteer. Be brave to be a pioneer.

"Does Mr. Chen think it is feasible?"

Li Zhen's intention to fight for military power is naturally not really for the so-called military achievements, but for a different purpose. At this time, when he saw Li Chong shouting for an unknown reason, he was inevitably a little displeasure in his heart, but did not care about it, but looked forward to the silent Chen Wushuang, who was full of expectations.

"Half to half."

Chen Wushuang was not in a hurry to answer Li Zhen's question, but after silently calculating for a long time, she answered cautiously.

"Oh? How do you say this?"

Although Li Zhen was interested in fighting for military power, she knew that her hope was not too big. Hearing that Chen Wushuang gave a 50% possibility, she couldn't help but jump wildly and hurriedly asked questions.

"In the prince's words, if the prince wants to come forward to fight, the prince can be 70% sure to win the handsome seal, but if the prince does not fight, the prince has less than 30% chance of success. If the mother is willing to come forward to support, this opportunity may be one and a half higher."

Chen Wushuang did not talk nonsense because of Li Zhen's eagerness. He gave the probability of success extremely objectively. Obviously, he was not too optimistic about Li Zhen's idea of fighting for military power.

"Thirty? Well..."

The probability given by Chen Wushuang is really not high, which is lower than Li Zhen's own speculation, which makes Li Zhen hesitate for it, but because the matter is really too big. When it comes to military power, it's all right. Everything is said, but if it doesn't happen, Zhenglong's holy people will inevitably be damaged. In case it affects the final plan, won't it outweigh the gains and losses? The problem is that if it can really take the military power, the benefits are also conceivable. It is logical to stage the final plan in advance. How to choose is really what to make Li Zhen hesitate again. After hesitating for a long time, he didn't I can make the final decision...
