Chapter 884 Arrangements (Part 2)

Li Xiaogong stinked his face and stopped talking. He went to the hall and ignored Li Chengqian again. He seemed to be very depressed.

Now that the Eastern Expedition is finalized, Goguryeo's act of committing suicide even gave the reason for sending troops to the Tang Dynasty. It can be seen that the Eastern Expedition was due to the will of heaven. If you don't send troops, you will really go against the will of heaven.

Li Er sat on the high stairs, his energy was so high that he was full of fighting spirit. Compared with his depressed performance when he was in court some time ago, he was like he was injected with chicken blood.

"Xuanling, are there any food and supplies in place? The logistics of the army going to the expedition is very important, don't miss the matter." Before the eunuch of the deacon announced the beginning of the morning dynasty, Li Er was the first to speak, and the first sentence was related to the Eastern Expedition.

"Your Majesty, the food and supplies are being counted in a second time, and they can be transported to the border soon." Lao Fang fought a lot of war with Li Er that year. It was not the first time that the food and supplies were transported, so naturally there would be no mistakes in this regard.

"Wuji, Keming, where is the armies?"

"Your Majesty, the thirteen guards who went to the expedition have been inspected, there is no problem!" Changsun Wuji walked out of the court and responded.

"Okay!" Li Er nodded, turned his gaze to His Highness and everyone else, glanced around and said, "Today, the great peace is here, but Liaodong is not yet peaceful. I want to take it personally and not leave the worries of future generations. I hope you and others will unite and work together..."

"I will obey the order!" The matter of going to war has been decided, so naturally there will be no more opposition.

The generals were waiting for Lao Li's words with red eyes: Three days later, the army will be ordered to go to the battlefield.

However, there were two people here who had already embarked on the journey. One was Zhang Liang, who was in charge of the navy. At this time, this guy had already led his five hundred fake sons (godson) with his name as the chief marching commander of Canghai Road.

The other is Li Ji, the general of the Tang Dynasty, known as the Confucian general, had left Dingxiang City and marched towards Youzhou, and joined the vanguard army of the Eastern Expedition in Youzhou, leading the post of the Liaodong Road marching chief, and the troops entered Liaodong to fight against Goguryeo.

It is precisely because of these two vanguard troops that the old man was able to arrange the dispatch slowly. An An had a total of six armies, and more than 300,000 troops (not counting as auxiliary troops) were ready to go.

However, although the scene in the court was lively and there were constant discussions, Li Chengqian felt that the old man's expedition was very problematic this time, and it seemed more like going out for a trip rather than going out for a war.

But no matter what, the old man arranged for him to stay in Chang'an and supervise the country well with the assistance of Li Xiaogong, Du Zhenglun and others.

This is not the first time I was almost exhausted last time, but fortunately I have already had experience now and I will never be lenient when it’s time to be lazy.

When he was distracted, Li Chengqian found that Li Xiaogong was stabbing him with his hands. He couldn't help but turn his head to look over, but found that the old Li was constantly winking himself, as if he was looking at the old man.

Just as he was thinking about it, the old man's voice came: "Crown Prince, what are you thinking so enchanting? I called you three times and didn't hear it. Could it be that I have any good offensive plan?"

"Uh, Father..."

Mao’s plan was just thinking that he could sleep for a long time until he woke up naturally, but why was the old man discovered it?

"What? Could it be that there is really something? If there is a good plan, I will show it out and let your uncles and uncles take a closer look." The old man didn't seem to be planning to let Li Chengqian go easily, and he kept holding on to the distracted part of his mind.

There is no way, let’s write it up. I have heard so many war examples in ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad. No matter whether it is practical or not, I will first take out one and deal with the things in front of me before I talk about it.

Thinking of this, Li Chengqian stood up from his position and walked to the middle of the hall: "Father, my son is thinking about whether we can create another side-level teacher to break the way for Goguryeo to get a backbone?"

"Oh? I don't want my son to be really insightful. Come on, let me listen." Li Er just wanted to teach Li Chengqian a lesson at first, so that he would not be distracted when he was speaking, but he didn't expect that this kid could really come up with a solution, which also aroused his interest.

"Does Father remember Ma Zishui? It is the waterway we call Yalushui now?" Li Chengqian estimated that the old man should have forgotten the famous river in later generations, so he didn't mention it at all this time, but just kept emphasizing Beisha City.

"Yulu Water?" Li Er frowned and thought for a while, but he didn't remember it. However, he knew about Ma Zishui, but what did the Eastern Expedition have to do with Ma Zishui?

"Father, we can choose a partial teacher, enter Yalu River, cut off the connection between Goguryeo and Liaodong, and then give them a lock of Hengjiang. If we can do it in the Liaodong area, we can do whatever we want. "Li Chengqian said, but what he thought of was "crossing the Yalu River with great confidence..."

"Hiss..." After hearing Li Chengqian's explanation, the old man couldn't help but take a breath of air conditioning.

This is a very powerful plan. It is just a rhythm of dividing Goguryeo into two, holding down one end and beating it to death.

However, it seems that this idea is really good. Thinking of Ma Zishui's position, Li Er suddenly felt that Li Chengqian's idea was indeed a bit favorable. The biggest advantage is that if he can't win Liaodong this year, he can rest for a winter and continue fighting, without caring about the previous results and all his efforts were wasted.

"Although the prince's plan is good, my navy has gone to Liaodong now, so where can I get a partial army?" Hou Junji was still the Minister of War. He also has the right to inquire about what Li Chengqian said.

Moreover, Lao Hou had many contacts with Li Chengqian during the Battle of Songzhou, and also knew that he could go to Songzhou by this boy, so he felt a little less resistant to the newly-grown prince.

As for why this kid is targeting him everywhere at the beginning, Lao Hou can only think that he is too handsome and shocked the kid, so he did that.

"Of course there are partial troops, but it will take some time to transfer them back." Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows and said, "Has everyone forgotten the fleet that went to the South China Sea to maintain peacekeeping? Dugu Qingyun has made great reputation in the South China Sea in recent years. I don't know how many naval battles have been fought. Isn't it just right to transfer him back to fight the Goguryeo Navy?"

"Is Qingyun?" After so many years, Li Er was almost forgetting all his guard. Now that Li Chengqian mentioned it, he immediately remembered it, and a hint of nostalgia appeared in his eyes.

Li Chengqian took over the old man's words: "Yes, Dugu Qingyun has now become the nickname of "Sea Dragon King" in the South China Sea. I believe that a small duck water should not be able to defeat him."
