Chapter 821 The Battle of the Western Regions (Part 2)
Outside the city of Term, the north gate of the Xia army camp; the Anxi guardian Li Yi led all the officers above the lieutenant in the camp to wait in the armor. Not long after, he saw a carriage coming from a distance. The carriage was very large and there were iron armor guards around. There was a person sitting in the carriage, and this person was King Qin Li Zhe.
"Little Zhuzi, how long will it take to get to the front line?" Qin King Li Zhe asked outside through the curtain.
"Report to the prince, it's here." Xiaozhuzi reported to Qin King Li Zhe.
"Take my horse here." King Qin Li Zhe said to Xiao Zhuzi.
"Prince, are you going to ride a horse?" Xiao Zhuzi asked Qin King Li Zhe in surprise.
King Li Zhe of Qin said to Xiao Zhuzi: "I not only want to ride a horse, but also wear armor. Come in and help me put on the armor."
"Yes, Prince..." Xiao Zhuzi received the order and entered the carriage.
While helping Qin King Li Zhe wear armor, Xiao Zhuzi asked in confusion: "Prince, what's wrong with you today? Why did you suddenly remember to wear armor and ride a horse?"
Qin King Li Zhe said to Xiao Zhuzi: "I am one of the seven princes and commanders of the army. If I always take a carriage, I will prove to the world that I can not only sit on the throne, but not only because of my father and the emperor's grandfather. I can be competent for the position of Qin, and the Seljuk Empire is my chance to prove myself."
"I understand." Xiaozhuzi replied.
Although King Li Zhe of Qin was still a child at this time, it was obvious that King Li Zhe of Qin no longer regarded himself as a child. You should know that these generals of the Xia army crawled from the battlefield where corpses were everywhere. They were all arrogant soldiers and powerful generals. Those who could control them could not rely solely on their noble bloodline, but also had enough ability to make them surrender. As one of the seven princes, King Li Zhe of Qin must establish absolute prestige among the soon-to-be-formed Qin army.
After wearing his armor, King Li Zhe of Qin threw away the carriage and ran towards the Xia army camp under the protection of the cavalry. Before and after coming to the Xia army camp, King Li Zhe of Qin only tightened the reins, and the front hooves of the war horse that were in pain stood up directly. Although King Li Zhe of Qin still seemed very immature at this time, he was also dispersed in heroic spirit. With the addition of that golden armor, the image of King Li Zhe of Qin became taller.
"I led all the generals of the Anxi Army to meet with His Highness the King of Qin." Li Yi, the great guardian of Anxi, knelt on one knee and saluted to King of Qin Li Zhe.
"The last generals and others pay homage to His Highness the King of Qin..." The generals saluted to King of Qin Li Zhe.
King Li Zhe of Qin walked to the Anxi Grand Guardian Li Yi, helped him up and said, "All the generals are exempted from the gifts, get up!"
After helping Li Yi, the Great Protector of Anxi, Qin Li Zhe took Li Yi's hand and walked while walking, "The Great Protector is the beloved general of the Emperor's Grandpa, and is also the humeral minister of my Great Xia Empire. He has worked hard and made great contributions for my Great Protector in the Western Regions for so many years. When my father was alive, he often mentioned the Great Protector to me. The little king and the Grandpa of the Emperor inherited the throne of the King of Qin, and he would also have to take care of him in the future."
"I will definitely serve you..." Li Yi said to King Li Zhe of Qin.
King Li Zhe of Qin continued to say to Li Yi: "I have submitted a report to Your Majesty and arranged the fief of the Great Protector in my new Qin territory. At that time, I will take down the Seljuk Empire. Even if the Great Protector wants, I will ask Your Majesty for you."
"Then thank you Your Highness." Li Yi smiled and thanked King Li Zhe.
After returning to the Xia army camp, the Anxi capital guardian Li Yi reported to the Qin King Li Zhehui alone: "Your Highness, I will report to Your Highness about Anxi's situation."
"No need." King Li Zhe of Qin refused on the spot, "The Protectorate, there are no outsiders here, so we uncle and nephew don't have to be polite. When you followed the emperor to conquer the world, I was not born yet! I believe my uncle and nephew trust me. In the future, my uncle and nephew will work together to govern the new Qin together. I hope my uncle and nephew can do more! I hope this uncle and nephew will be the first prime minister of the new Qin."
Li Yi was shocked when he heard the words of King Li Zhe of Qin. What a high position the Prime Minister of the New Qin State is! Although the New Qin is only one of the seven vassal states, the future territory of this vassal state is not much smaller than that of the sect leader. He can become a prime minister of a country. It is of the same level as the Executive Yuan envoy (prime minister) of the Daxia Dynasty. Not everyone can hold such a high position. Now King Li Zhe of Qin is saying such words here, it is obvious that it is to win over Li Yi as a talent.
Li Yi also agreed very decisively: "Then it's a blessing for the prince."
Although it is just a change of title, there is too much information contained in it. Your Highness's title means that he has been regarded as the main one. Of course, Li Yi actually has his own considerations when doing this. Now Li Yi is not young. Although Li Yi has had a rotation position, he has been serving as the Anxi Protector in the past ten years. It can be said that within the jurisdiction of the Anxi Protector, Li Yi is just a word. Although he cannot keep up with the imperial edict, it is almost the same. If he continues to do it, it will inevitably make the emperor a little afraid, so Li Yi has already planned to retire.
Furthermore, Li Yi had a fiefdom as Duke of Wucheng, and his fiefdom was under the rule of the New Qin State. Therefore, the Qin King Li Zhe was Li Yi's immediate superior in the future. No matter in any era, it was very important to establish a good relationship with his immediate superior. Now is the best time for Li Yi to express his loyalty.
In fact, it is a win-win situation for King Li Zhe and Li Yi to get together. Now King Li Zhe is just a fledgling boy. He has no prestige in the court and the army. Those who follow King Li Zhe are basically some old ministers of the former crown prince Li Wu, and they are all old ministers who do not have much ability. The more powerful old ministers have been imprisoned or executed on various charges. In other words, there are currently no capable talents under the command of King Li Zhe. Li Yi is no different from being able to come to Li Zhe to help Li Zhe.
Qin King Li Zhe said to Li Yi: "When I came this time, I also brought a large number of new firearms, including 100 new cannons that have been improved and 50,000 new firearms. At the same time, there are also a group of craftsmen who can make granular gunpowder. They will also repair bird guns and cannons. As long as there is suitable fine iron, we can even build firearms by ourselves..."
"Prince, what you said is true!" Li Yi said in shock.
"Of course, you can practice your skills tomorrow. It is said that this is an important town of the Seljuk Empire in the north, right?" Qin King Li Zhe said with a smile.
"Yes, the prince, but you can enter the plateau area to the south of the city of Term. It is not conducive to marching with heavy artillery." Li Yi said to King Li Zhe of Qin.
