Signing in Datang: Li Shimin was shocked by the start

Chapter 36

Chapter 36

Suning's incident suddenly became the focus!

After Fang Xuanling returned to the palace, she immediately reported to Li Shimin the fact that the five major forces had sent people to assassinate Suning.

"Hmph, I really didn't expect that the five major powers would be so bold and dare to send people to assassinate them. I haven't learned enough lessons."

Li Shimin took pictures of several cases and said with an angry face: "Fortunately, my son is very skilled in martial arts, otherwise he would have been killed by them."

"The five major forces took action against the prince at the same time, which shows that the prince has posed a threat to them."

Li Shimin nodded and said, "That's right, but the situation is not stable yet, and the five major forces cannot be suppressed yet."

Hearing this, Fang Xuanling raised an eyebrow.

Because he didn't expect that Suning's guess was so accurate, Li Shimin really didn't dare to take action against the five major forces.

"what happened?"

Seeing Fang Xuanling looking at him with strange eyes, Li Shimin said doubtfully.

Fang Xuanling said: "His Royal Highness also knows that His Majesty does not dare to take action against the five major powers for the time being. He also said that the rebellion of the five major powers will give the Turks an opportunity to take advantage of. Let Your Majesty stockpile food as soon as possible to prevent Turkic invasion."

Li Shimin frowned, "Did Li Jing tell you this?"

"good."

Li Shimin said with a smile: "Then Li Jing may have miscalculated this time. A few days ago, I received a letter from General Su, who told me that the Turks were hit by heavy snow, and many cattle and sheep were frozen to death."

"Now that they are in short supply of food, how dare they invade our Tang Dynasty without food."

Just as Fang Xuanling was about to speak, a eunuch suddenly walked in.

"Your Majesty, General Yuchi asked for an audience outside the hall and said that he would report to you in case of emergency."

"General Yuchi, didn't he follow Qin Shubao to guard Jizhou? Why did he come back suddenly?"

Li Shimin looked puzzled, and then said, "Let him in."

Soon, Yu Chigong was seen striding in from outside wearing a golden helmet and armor.

"I see you, Your Majesty."

"General Yuchi, didn't you follow General Su to guard the border? Why did you come back suddenly?"

Yuchi Gong clasped his fists and said: "Return to Your Majesty, the spies have come to report that Jieli Khan is gathering an army and seems to be invading Jizhou."

"Su Ning was worried about the invasion of the Turkic army and the lack of food and grass, so he specially asked me to come back to play His Majesty."

"You mean that the Turks are going to invade Jizhou?"

Li Shimin frowned. If the situation is true, it is exactly the same as what Suning guessed.

"Not sure yet, I just found out that they are gathering an army."

Li Shimin looked thoughtful.

"Li Jing is such a genius, he can even predict that the Turks will invade the Tang Dynasty."

Gathering an army is definitely going to invade Datang.

This was the sign of every Turkic invasion.

Fang Xuanling asked: "Your Majesty, what should we do now?"

"Just follow what he said and speed up the hoarding of food. If any aristocratic family dares to violate the laws of the Tang Dynasty, they will be dealt with according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty."

Although Li Shimin did not dare to wipe out the five major forces, he could kill chickens and monkeys.

Moreover, he made the law, and if the family came to cause trouble, he would have an excuse.

"Okay, I'll do it right now."

Fang Xuanling turned and left immediately.

Yu Chigong said: "By the way, Your Majesty, on the way back to the palace, I heard that His Majesty is training a large army. It is said that the people training this large army, even General Hou can only serve as his deputy. I don't know if it is true or not?"

Li Shimin smiled and said, "Of course it's true."

Yu Chigong was surprised and said: "The minister wants to see what this general is capable of."

"Go ahead, he is training in the field next to the military camp outside the city."

Li Shimin knew that Yu Chigong wanted to try Suning's skills.

But he wasn't worried because he had already seen what Suning was capable of.

If Yuchi Gong dares to provoke, it will be tantamount to humiliating himself.

"Okay, the minister will leave."

After Yuchi Gong left the palace, he didn't even return home, but walked towards the military camp outside the city.

Soon, he came to the field where Suning trained soldiers.

When he saw the training methods of these soldiers, he frowned.

"What's all this?"

As a general, he didn't think these training methods worked at all.

While Yu Chigong was watching these soldiers training, someone had already informed Li Jing.

After Li Jing learned of Yuchi Gong's arrival, he immediately came to see him.

"General Yuchi, didn't you guard Jizhou with General Su? Why are you back?"

Yuchi said respectfully: "The spies have come to report that Jieli Khan is gathering an army, probably to invade Jizhou. Suning is worried and asked me to come back and inform His Majesty."

"I see."

Yu Chigong looked at the field and asked: "This is the army that His Majesty asked that general to train?"

Li Jing nodded and said, "That's right. Although these training methods are not very good, they can actually greatly improve the combat and physical strength of soldiers."

"Just before, they killed more than 1000 people who came to assassinate General Su with their bare hands, and none of them was fine."

"Old Hou, can you tell me who this General Su is?"

For a person who can be valued so highly by Li Shimin, Yu Chigong must have some skills.

"You don't know Suning?"

He was startled for a moment, then smiled and said: "By the way, I forgot, you have been guarding Jizhou, you don't know that he is normal."

"Then Su Ning, do you know?"

Before the flood broke out, Suning donated more than [-] deniers of grain to Chang'an City, which can be said to be famous in Chang'an.

At that time, Li Shimin used the title of Suning when promoting him, and said that the other party was a fairy, and all the food was conjured.

"Of course I know about Suning. I heard that he used his magic to send more than [-] days of food to the people of Chang'an City."

Although he was far away from the border, he still heard some exciting news from Datang.

"That's right, Suning is Suning. I don't know if he knows how to use immortals, but I feel that his skills are more powerful than immortals."

"Really? Then I would really like to see it."

Yuchi Gong suddenly showed a look of anticipation.

"Look, here he is."

As soon as Yu Chigong finished speaking, Li Jing looked behind him and said.

Yuchi Gong turned his head.

I saw a handsome young man in white clothes walking towards him.

"Could it be him?"

Yuchi Gong's eyes widened.

That's it, still a fairy?

Either Li Jing made a mistake in his introduction, or he misheard.

"Who is this?"

Suning came to the front and back of the two, and cast his eyes on Yu Chigong.

Li Jing was about to introduce, when Yu Chigong suddenly raised his hand to interrupt.

"You are Suning, the one who can cast immortality?"

Su Ning didn't know Yu Chigong, but he could tell he was a general just by looking at his clothes.

Immediately said: "It's good that I'm Suning, but I don't know how to perform any magic. Also, you can call me Suning."

Yuchi Gong said: "I don't care what your name is, I have a problem with your training method now. I feel it is not practical."

Su Ning smiled and said, "Then what do you want to do?"

It is not surprising that Suning has opinions on his training methods.

After all, even Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others would doubt it when they saw it, let alone the other party was a general.

"It's very simple, as long as you can defeat me, I believe your method will work."

In Yu Chigong's opinion, no matter whether the other party is an immortal or not, you should try the other party's ability first before talking about it.

If the opponent has no ability, then he will never let the opponent lead troops.

After all, there are not many troops in Datang now, so we can't let people take them down.

"Don't be impulsive."

Seeing that Yu Chigong was about to compete with Suning, Li Jing quickly reminded him in his ear.

He has already seen Suning's methods.

He didn't think Yu Chigong would be Suning's opponent.

Yu Chigong thought that Li Jing was afraid that he would hurt Suning, so he immediately said: "Don't worry, I know how to act properly, and I won't hurt him."

Staring at Su Ning, Yuchi said respectfully: "Others say you are a fairy, I don't think a fairy should be afraid of a mortal, right?"

Su Ning said with a smile: "Since the general is interested, I am naturally willing to accompany you."

The other party has talked about this, so Suning will naturally not back down.

While speaking, he walked towards the center of the training ground.

Seeing this, Yuchi Gong smiled slightly and followed.After arriving at the center of the training ground, Yu Chigong said: "In order not to let others think that I am bullying you, I will let you do three tricks."

Su Ning smiled slightly and put a hand behind his back.

Yuchi Gong immediately frowned and said, "What do you mean?"

Su Ning said: "I don't know the severity of my shots. I am afraid that I will kill you by mistake, so I am going to fight you with one hand."

"what?"

Yu Chigong's eyes instantly turned into bull's eyes.

Suning actually wants to compete with him with one hand.

You know, his military strength is top-notch among all generals.

It can be said that the number of people who can defeat him in the entire Tang Dynasty will not exceed five fingers.

Now Suning actually wants to compete with him with one hand, isn't this deliberately humiliating him?

"Is Su Ning too arrogant?"

Li Jing saw Suning preparing to deal with Yuchi Gong with one hand, and felt that Suning was too crazy.

Although he knows that Suning has the ability.

But Yu Chigong's force is extraordinary.

"Boy, are you crazy? Before, I wanted to be merciful, but now I have changed my mind."

Su Ning said with a smile: "General, don't talk nonsense, let's act quickly, I still have important things to do."

"Okay, today I'm going to see what you're capable of."

As these words rang out, Yuchi Gong stepped forward and rushed towards Suning.

When he was about to get close to Suning, he waved his arm and punched Suning in the face.

Before the punch arrived, a gust of wind had already blown Su Ning's hair into the air.

At this moment, Suning suddenly reached out and grabbed Yu Chigong's fist.

With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Suning turned his body and exerted force on his arms.

brush!

Yuchi Gong was thrown into the air by Suning like a sandbag.

boom!

Finally, it slammed hard not far behind Suning.

"This?"

Seeing this, Li Jing's eyes widened.

Datang's first-class fierce general was thrown away by Suning with one hand.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he couldn't believe it.

"how is this possible?"

After Yu Chigong fell to the ground, he felt that he was thrown in a mess.

He didn't even react just now, he felt himself flying out.

"General, do you want to continue the competition?"

Suning looked at Yu Chigong who was lying on the ground and didn't react for a long time, and asked with a smile.

"I was careless just now, come again."

After Yu Chigong recovered, he got up again and rushed towards Suning.

However the result is still the same.

Suning dodged his attack, reached out to grab his clothes, and threw Yuchi Gong away with a slight lift.

boom!

Seeing Yu Chigong being thrown into the air again, Li Jing finally saw the gap between the two, and quickly stepped forward to help Yu Chigong up.

"Okay, don't compete anymore, it will really kill someone, General Yuchi."

"General Yuchi, are you Yuchi Gong?"

Suning stared at Yu Chigong and asked with a frown.

After Yu Chigong stood up, he looked at Su Ning and said, "That's right, I will change my name or surname. I am Yu Chigong. I heard that you have many methods, so I wanted to test it out. I didn't expect you to be so powerful."

Su Ning cupped his hands and said with a smile: "It turned out to be General Yuchi, I only beat you in strength just now."

Yu Chigong snorted coldly: "If you win, you win, so what's the point of effort?"

Li Jing said: "Yes, since the outcome has been decided, there is no need to compete anymore."

He was really afraid that Yu Chigong would keep competing with Suning.

Both of them are valued by Li Shimin, and if something happens, he will be implicated as well.

Yuchi Gong said: "I have already lost to him, so I can't compete with him. He has such a strong strength, and the way he trains troops will not be any worse."

"Okay, I'm leaving."

While speaking, Yu Chigong wanted to leave.

Suning said quickly: "General Yuchi, wait a minute, is your arm injured?"

When he fought Yu Chigong just now, he found that the opponent's arm strength seemed to be asymmetrical.

Yu Chigong looked at Su Ning in surprise, then smiled and said, "Boy, that's right, I even found the injury on the general's arm."

"Yes, this general was shot by an arrow when he was fighting with a Turkic cavalry. He has not recovered yet."

Suning said: "Of course it won't be cured, because the bones inside are damaged. If it's not treated in time, there is a risk of it being crippled."

"What, really, don't lie to me, kid, I have to rush back to help Suning guard Jizhou."

Li Jing said: "General Yuchi, how could he lie to you, I was hit by a poisoned arrow before, he was the one who cured me, and Wu Cairen was also cured by him."

"Wu Cairen was cured by him?"

Yu Chigong also knew a little about Changle Wucai, even Sun Simiao couldn't heal him well.

So he couldn't believe it when he heard that Changle Wucai was cured by Suning.

Su Ning said: "If you believe me, come back to the tent with me, I will help you heal, and within a few days, you will not feel the pain anymore."

Yuchi Gong showed hesitation.

After a while, he said: "Okay, then I will heal the injury first, and then go back to Jizhou."

Two days later.

Holding a memorial, Fang Xuanling walked towards the Ganlu Hall with a solemn expression.

When he entered the Ganlu Hall, he saw Li Shimin correcting memorials.

"Your Majesty, General Su has an urgent message."

While speaking, he put the memorial on Li Shimin's desk.

After Li Shimin picked it up and looked at it, his eyes were fixed.

"The person who heard the news said that Jieli Khan has led an army of [-] to leave the royal court, and the target seems to be Jizhou."

Li Shimin put down the memorial, pondered for a while, looked at Fang Xuanling and asked, "If the Turks send troops, how long will it take to reach Jizhou?"

Fang Xuanling said: "If it is fast, it will take ten days, if it is slow, it will take half a month."

"How much food is hoarded now?"

Fang Xuanling said: "Less than [-] dan."

Li Shimin frowned and said, "Why are there so few? Are those aristocratic families still unwilling to hand over the food?"

"Yes, they have been stalling for time, and they don't know what their intentions are."

Li Shimin said with a sneer: "What else can I do? Every time there is news from the border, those aristocratic families will receive it. It is estimated that they want to delay the Turkic army to kill the border, and then negotiate terms with me."

"so what should I do now?"

Fang Xuanling panicked.

If that's the case, then things are a little trickier.

Li Shimin said: "If you delay time with me, I will never agree. I will tell you that anyone who fails to pay the grain tax on time will have all their properties confiscated."

Fang Xuanling showed a worried look on his face, and said, "Your Majesty, will this make the dogs of the five major forces jump*?"

Li Shimin looked at him and said, "Even if they are in a hurry, they have to pay. Turks are about to call. Do we have to wait until then to start hoarding food?"

"What's more, I have already turned against the five major forces, so I am afraid that they will fail?"

"Your Majesty is right, I will do it now."

Fang Xuanling also knew the seriousness of the matter.

If the Turks really come and there is no food, then they will undoubtedly lose.

No matter what, we must cut off a piece of flesh from the noble family.

Five days later.

Li Shimin received Qin Shubao's rush again.

After reading the contents of Ji Zuo, he immediately called Fang Xuanling, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui to Ganlu Hall.

"Your Majesty, why did you come to us in such a hurry?"

Fang Xuanling asked.

Li Shimin said: "Auxiliary machine, how is the food stockpiling going?"

Fang Xuanling clasped his hands and said, "After the minister followed His Majesty's method, although the five major powers did not want to pay, they were forced to pay all the food taxes in the end."

Li Shimin nodded and said: "That's good. Today I received an urgent message from General Su. He said in the letter that Jieli Khan led a hundred thousand troops and suddenly disappeared when they were about to reach the border."

"What, there is such a thing?"

Li Shimin spread out a map, waved to the three of them and said, "That's right, come and see where his army went."

Hearing this, Fang Xuanling and the others came to Li Shimin's desk and carefully looked at the map.

"After Jizhou is the grassland, it is impossible for the [-] Turkic army to hide in the grassland."

"There are many mountains near Jizhou. Do you think they will hide in the mountains?"

"Probably not. There are many spies in Jizhou. If the Turkic army enters the mountains, they will definitely be discovered."

Li Shimin frowned and said, "We are no longer in the grassland, nor in the mountains. How can we go to heaven?"

The three of Fang Xuanling also had sad faces, even they didn't know where the Turkic army had gone.

"Your Majesty, General Yuchi seems to be recovering from his wounds in the barracks outside the city. He is familiar with the situation on the border of Jizhou, and His Royal Highness is also there. Maybe he knows where the Turkic army has gone."

Fang Xuanling raised his head, looked at Li Shimin and said.

Li Shimin showed a dignified expression on his face, and said: "The Turkic army suddenly disappeared, there must be some conspiracy, we must find it out as soon as possible, let's go, follow me to the barracks."

Following these words, Li Shimin left the palace with the three of them.In the barracks.

After Suning helped Yu Chigong bandage the wound, he said, "Okay, it's almost done, after a while, take off the cloth, and everything will be fine."

Yuchi Gong stood up, moved his arms, and then looked at Suning in surprise and said, "Okay, your medical skills are probably much better than that old man Sun Simiao."

Li Jing smiled and said: "That's right, otherwise how can we cure the princess well?"

At this moment, the camp tent was opened.

When he saw Suning, Yuchi Gong and Li Jing were there, Li Shimin said, "It's good that you are all here."

"See Your Majesty."

The three of them bowed at the same time.

Li Shimin said: "Okay, these etiquettes will be waived."

"What is your Majesty looking for us?"

Li Jing asked.

After Li Shimin sat down in the tent, he said: "General Su just sent someone to send an urgent report. After approaching the border, the Turkic army suddenly disappeared. Mr. Changsun and I discussed it for a long time, but we don't know where they went."

"Thinking that the three of you are all in the military camp, I came here to discuss with you."

Yuchi Gong looked surprised and said: "The Turkic army suddenly disappeared. How is it possible?"

Li Shimin said: "I also feel strange, but since General Su said that, it means there must be something wrong with it."

Suning asked: "Do you have a map?"

Li Jing quickly walked towards the tables in the middle of the camp and said, "Here is the map."

Hearing this, Suning and Li Shimin followed quickly.

I saw a map placed on the desk.

It's just that the map does not record the geographic location in detail, but only roughly records the location.

Li Shimin said: "General Yuchi, you are familiar with the environment near Jizhou. Where do you think the Turkic army will go?"

Yuchi Gong cast his eyes on the map, pointed to the front of Jizhou and said: "In front of Jizhou is the grassland. There is no way to hide soldiers and horses. It is surrounded by mountains. Although we can hide soldiers, there are many of our spies inside."

"If the [-] Turkic troops really entered the mountains, there is no reason why they couldn't be found."

"Don't you even know where you went?"

Li Shimin raised his eyebrows.

Originally, he thought that Yu Chigong and Qin Shubao were guarding Jizhou, and they were familiar with the environment around Jizhou, so they should know the whereabouts of the Turkic army.

But now, the other party doesn't seem to know.

Suning asked, "Are there any rivers near Jizhou?"

Yuchi Gong said: "Yes, but the ships are all in our hands, and the Turks are all cavalry, so it is impossible to travel by water."

Suning pondered and said: "Then there is only one possibility."

"What is possible?"

Everyone's eyes instantly fell on Suning.

"Jieli Khan dispersed an army of one hundred thousand."

"What, dispersed the [-] troops?"

Li Shimin asked in surprise, "Why did he do that?"

"Yeah, why would he do that."

Everyone felt a little unbelievable.

Suning said: "The reason is very simple. What is the advantage of the Turkic cavalry, and that is their speed."

"So even if they are scattered, they can gather in a very short time, but I think Jieli Khan must have other plans."

"Another plan?"

"good."

Li Shimin suddenly widened his eyes and said, "Is it possible that Jizhou is not the only place he wants to attack?"

Suning nodded and said: "It is very possible that His Majesty should immediately send someone to notify the counties near Jizhou to strengthen their defenses to prevent the Turkic army from attacking."

Yuchi said respectfully: "Since the situation is so urgent, I will return to Jizhou now."

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Okay."

At that moment Yuchi Gong turned around and left.

Li Shimin said: "The situation is critical. I will go back to the palace now and issue an order to make the states and counties around Jizhou beware of Turks."

Following these words, Li Shimin left the barracks with Fang Xuanling and the others.

Soon, only Suning and Li Jing were left in the military camp.

"General Hou, how are the training of the [-] soldiers going?"

Li Jing said: "They have fully adapted to your training program."

Suning nodded and said: "That should come in handy, but now we have to build a batch of weapons."

"What kind of weapons, swords or spears, are available in the barracks."

Su Ning said: "You don't have the weapons I want in your barracks."

While speaking, Suning took out a blueprint from his pocket and handed it to Li Jing.

"You can now follow the drawings and let the craftsmen build three thousand Mo Dao. I will form an army of Mo Dao."

Mo Dao was not popular in the early Tang Dynasty. It was not until the Tang Gaozong period that it became popular to deal with Turkic cavalry.

Suning knew that he would have to fight the Turks sooner or later, so he prepared to form a Modao army to deal with the Turks cavalry.

"Modao?"

Li Jing glanced at the blueprint, and said, "Okay, I'm going to order the craftsmen to build it now.

After Li Jing left, Suning looked at the map on the desktop with a look of contemplation.

After Li Shimin returned to the palace, he began to write an imperial edict, preparing to notify the prefectures and counties near Jizhou, telling them to be careful of the Turkic cavalry attack.

After the imperial decree was conveyed, Li Shimin began to panic.

The disappearance of Turkic play made him puzzled.

Soon, two days passed.

When Li Shimin got up on the third day to prepare for the morning court, a soldier suddenly rushed into the Ganlu Hall and said to Li Shimin, "Your Majesty, hurry up for eight hundred miles."

"what?"

Hearing this, Li Shimin quickly took the memorial from the other party.

For the past two days, he has been restless because he is worried about something happening in Jizhou.

After the memorial was opened, Li Shimin glanced at it, and his expression changed drastically.

As mentioned above, the Turkic army was divided into four groups, two of which attacked from left to right and besieged Jizhou. Qin Shubao was injured by an arrow and his life was in jeopardy.

The other two groups attacked Yingzhou. Now Qin Shubao and the governor of Yingzhou asked Li Shimin to send troops for support.

"Come here, immediately summon the Ministers of Civil and Military Affairs to discuss matters in the Tai Chi Hall."

After Li Shimin put down the memorial, he walked towards the Tai Chi Hall without thinking about washing.

Soon, Fang Xuanling and others rushed to the Tai Chi Hall.

"My dear friends, this morning I received an urgent call from Jizhou. The Turkic army was divided into four groups, two groups besieged Jizhou, and the other two groups besieged Yingzhou. Now General Su has been shot by an arrow and his life is at stake. .”

"I don't know which love minister is willing to lead troops to support?"

Li Shimin sat on the dragon chair, glanced at everyone, and asked.

Fang Xuanling said: "Your Majesty, now we only have [-] soldiers stationed outside Chang'an City, under the command of General Hou, why not let him lead the troops to support."

Li Shimin said: "Okay, now I give an order for Li Jing to lead [-] troops to Jizhou to support."

"His Majesty."

At this moment, Wei Zheng came out.

"The [-] troops outside Chang'an City are the entire army of Chang'an. If they are sent to support Jizhou, what will happen to Yingzhou?"

"This……"

Li Shimin was suddenly embarrassed.

Fang Xuanling pondered for a while, and said to Li Shimin, "Your Majesty, didn't you ask Suning to train [-] soldiers? Do you want him to lead troops to support Yingzhou?"

Li Shimin frowned suddenly, and asked Suning to support Yingzhou, what did Fang Xuanling mean?

Doesn't the other party know that Suning is the prince?

What if something goes wrong?

Fang Xuanling came out and said, "Yes, I also suggest that Suning lead the army to support Yingzhou."

Du Ruhui also came out and said, "I also suggest that Suning lead the army to support Yingzhou."

Seeing that even Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui came out to let Suning lead the army to support Yingzhou, Li Shimin was even more puzzled.

"The ministers also suggested that Mr. Qin lead the army to support Yingzhou."

When the other adults heard the words, they clapped their hands and echoed.

Fang Xuanling, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui are the three top bosses in the court.

Now that they also propose to let Suning lead troops to support them, these civil and military ministers will naturally not object.

Li Shimin stared at the three of them, and finally said with a gloomy expression, "Okay, since that's the case, now I will decree that the loyal military general Suning will lead an army of [-] troops to Yingzhou to resist the Turkic army."

"Your Majesty is wise."

"Okay, step back."

Following Li Shimin's voice, all civil and military officials turned and left.

"My eldest grandson, my lord Fang and my lord Du stay here."

Others don't know Suning's identity, but the three of them do.

Now that the three of them have asked Suning to lead the army on an expedition, in Li Shimin's view, they are pushing Suning into a pit of fire.

So he wanted to ask the three of them what they meant.Your Majesty, I wonder why you are leaving us here? "

Fang Xuanling asked.

Li Shimin frowned and said, "Why did I keep you, don't you know?"

Fang Xuanling smiled and said: "Your Majesty wants to know why we recommend His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to lead troops to support Yingzhou, right?"

"Yes, the Turkic army is invading, and it must be extremely dangerous to lead troops to support it. The prince is still young, and I don't want him to have an accident."

Du Ruhui said: "Does Your Majesty know what we mean by doing this?"

Li Shimin frowned and said, "If I knew, I wouldn't have asked you."

Fang Xuanling said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not disclosed his identity yet, so he has to perform more meritorious services. And now that the Turks are invading, it is the time for the Crown Prince to perform meritorious service."

"When the identity is revealed in the future, His Royal Highness will not only win the hearts of the people, but also have military merits, and no one will dare to oppose the succession of the Great Ruler."

Fang Xuanling said: "That's right, Master Changsun thinks the same as the two of us, even if he doesn't bring it up today, we both will."

Li Shimin was stunned when he heard this.

"So that's the case, but I am a little worried, after all, he has never been on the battlefield."

Fang Xuanling said: "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry. Your Highness's resourcefulness is not as good as ours, so even if you haven't been on the battlefield, I think you can repel the Turkic army."

"good."

Li Shimin said: "Well, since the three adults have so much confidence in him, I will issue an order now."

Outside Chang'an City, in the military camp.

"According to His Majesty's oral instructions, Yingzhou is in urgent need, and Zhongwu General Suning is ordered to lead eight thousand troops to Yingzhou for support. I hereby express my gratitude."

Fang Xuanling looked at Suning and smiled, "General Su, accept the order!"

Suning reached out to accept the imperial edict, a little stunned.

He hadn't been training soldiers for long, but Li Shimin suddenly thought of asking him to support Yingzhou.

Or is it that Chang'an has no soldiers to send.

"Is there no more soldiers and horses to send in Chang'an?"

Fang Xuanling sighed, "Yes, otherwise His Majesty would not have sent you."

Suning wondered: "Aren't there many generals in the court? Why not send them?"

He had never been on the battlefield, so Suning couldn't figure out why Li Shimin would think of himself.

Fang Xuanling said: "After all, you are also a loyal general personally appointed by His Majesty. If you don't go to the battlefield, it will be unreasonable."

Suning rubbed his forehead and said, "Okay, if that's the case, then I'll leave the day after tomorrow."

"Why the day after tomorrow? Yingzhou is in an emergency. His Majesty asked you to leave tomorrow."

Suning waved his hand and said, "No, I'm building a batch of weapons, and those weapons are the key to dealing with the Turkic cavalry."

"Okay, then I'll go back and report to His Majesty. In addition, Your Majesty asked me to tell you that when you leave, he will lead all the civil and military officials to see you off."

After Fang Xuanling finished speaking, he turned and left.

"Lead all the civil and military officials to see me off?"

Suning couldn't understand Li Shimin.

After Li Jing received the order, he had already left with his troops.

Li Shimin didn't even see him off, so why did Li Shimin send him off when he brought [-] soldiers to support Yingzhou?

Although he was puzzled, Suning didn't think much about it.

Soon, three thousand Mo knives were forged overnight at Suning's request.

After the Modao was built, Suning asked the soldiers to tie up hundreds of straw horses with straw and stand them in the training ground.

Then under his command, attack these grass horses.

After these soldiers' Mo Dao came into contact with the grass horses, the grass horses were instantly cut in half.

After Fang Tingting learned that Suning was going to support Yingzhou, she came to the military camp to help him.

When she saw the soldiers attacking Cao Ma with Mo Dao, she frowned and said, "Is this attack really useful?"

In her opinion, grass horses cannot move and are fragile, and cannot be compared with Turkic war horses.

Suning smiled and said: "Of course it is useful. These Mo Dao can cut iron like clay. Let alone a war horse, even a stone can be cut in half."

Fang Tingting said: "Then can you take me with you when you go to Yingzhou?"

"Take you?"

Su Ning was startled, then smiled and said, "Then your father won't kill me yet."

Fang Tingting said: "Don't worry, I will convince my father."

After finishing speaking, regardless of Suning's answer or not, he turned and left.

Suning shook his head slightly, ignored her, and continued to direct the soldiers to drill.

He's leaving tomorrow.

Whether we can defeat the Turkic army depends on these eight thousand soldiers.

"Su Ning."
