Such a loud and resounding answer without retreating and hesitation made the emperor smile with a satisfied smile. No matter how strong Sun Bi is in military ability, at least this loyalty and responsibility are better than that of too many people.

Moreover, compared to another suitable candidate, he really hoped that this son would be the commander of the three armies in this war. So after pondering for a moment, he looked at the ministers below: "My dear friends, what do you think you are the King of England to take charge of the enemy in the northern border?"

There was a silence at first, but then Wen Ming, Wei Liang and other confidants of the King of England had already expressed their support: "Your Majesty is wise, I think the King of England should be the most suitable candidate in the court now!"

The prince was so anxious. At this time, he couldn't help but wink at his own people. Then several officials jumped out one after another: "Your Majesty, I think this matter is still to be discussed! After all, the King of England lacks qualifications, and the military affairs in the northern border are not a joke. Once you are negligent, it will be the life and death of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of soldiers!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, the King of England may have studied military books for many years, but if he really wants to put it on the battlefield, he is still a little younger. I also think this matter is just thinking about it..."

Faced with these people's doubts, Sun Bi was not good at speaking. Fortunately, there were other people who could help. Wen Ming immediately refuted: "You guys are worried that they cannot make no sense, but it is too hasty to deny that Your Majesty's choice of commander is just because of his youth. Don't you know that the Han Dynasty Wei Huo was a young man who commanded the army, won consecutive battles and pacified the disaster of the Huns?"

When facing him, these old opponents naturally have no burden: "Wei Qing and Huo Qubing are born with talents that are rare in a thousand years. Even if the King of England knows about military forces, he is afraid he cannot compare with them, right?"

"It may not be possible. At least I have confronted the King of England on the map, but I have not gained any advantage and was slightly inferior. So I think the King of England's eternal army is no longer inferior to any generals in my Great Yue Dynasty, including the three old generals in the northern border today." Duan Ting suddenly spoke again.

He did not join the King of England as early as Wen Ming and others. In fact, as Duan Ting's identity, it was impossible to make such a decision. However, this did not affect his daily interactions with Sun Bi, and through some sand table deductions, he admired the prince's ability to use troops. This is also the reason why Duan Ting would recommend Sun Bi this time, because he knew that Sun Bi was the most suitable candidate in the court today.

With Duan Ting as his guarantee, others really cannot question it. After all, when it comes to military combat, no one in the palace can have more say than him.

The emperor also had a further understanding at this time. After carefully looking at Sun Bi, he said: "I have decided that the army is very fast, and the matter of the northern border is urgent. Sun Bi is the commander of the three armies in the northern border, leading the defenders of various cities and reinforcements from all over the world, and immediately rushed to the northern border to break the enemy's defense."

"I will do my best to destroy the ghost army, guard the border, and restore my peace in the world of Great Yue!" Sun Bi no longer hesitated and immediately knelt down to accept the order. Now, the matter was completely finalized, which made the prince beside him helpless. It was too late to say anything later.

He knew very well that once this matter was decided, it would be fine if Sun Bi could not achieve his goal or simply died in the northern border. Once he really won a big victory, not to mention whether he could really hurt Gui Rong as he had thought before, as long as he defended the cities in the northern border, his biggest shortcomings and credit before would be completely filled.

By then, once he returns to the capital, he is afraid that his position as crown prince will be in no way safe!

This terrible thought made him feel cold all over his body - since ancient times, no deposed prince will have a good ending, either death, or life is worse than death!

The fear quickly turned into resentment. The fear of his father who had accumulated over the years began to transform and turned into deep hostility towards him...

At this time, Sun Yong did not feel the resentment and hostility from his eldest son. What he cared more about was whether Sun Bi could really achieve results this time, so he asked solemnly: "Sun Bi, do you think how to use troops to defeat the enemy next?"

"The army has no constant power and should be cut off when facing the enemy. No matter how much I say now, it is just a paper talk. I dare not speak out. But there are a few things I know, that is, relying solely on the current soldiers and horses in the northern border, but the enemy is easy. I really want to cause heavy damage to the Guirong, and even go straight to the grasslands of the northern desert, but I am unable to meet the strength. Therefore, I think that while I am eager to coordinate the battle in the northern border, officers and soldiers from all over the Central Plains should also draw some of them to rush to the northern border to assist in the war. This is one of them.

"Secondly, the troops and horses will go first before they move their food and grass. This battle is due to the determination of the Great Vietnamese soldiers and horses, but more importantly, the logistics support. So I hope that Your Majesty can agree to me a request..."

The emperor looked at him thoughtfully, then nodded and said, "You said."

"I ask Your Majesty to allow Li Ling to return to the court, and help him defeat the enemy together, so that he can take charge of logistics affairs, so that our army will not be worried on the front line."

Before the emperor could speak, some of the ministers next to him could not bear it: "King Ying, are you underestimating the officials in our court? Do you still want to pretend to be public and private! Who doesn't know that Li Ling has a big problem with his background? Even if he is in the future, he will not be able to entrust the important border army logistics to him!"

"Mr. Yin, you are wrong. Li Tong's affairs have long passed. Even His Majesty has nothing to do with each other and has been punished by Li Ling. Instead, he asked him to return to his hometown to mourn. Why did you say that the charge is still there?" Wei Liang couldn't help it at that time and retorted.

Lord Yin immediately snorted and wanted to retort, but the emperor said again: "I have said at the beginning that Li Ling arrested Li Tong and was loyal to him. After Li Tong's death, he was filial to Ding You, and he was loyal and filial to both filial piety and was a role model for my ministers. This will not change."

Lord Yin suddenly lost his words when the emperor made his statement. At the same time, the others also kept the emperor's attitude in their hearts, knowing that it would be impossible to use Li Tong to attack Li Ling in the future.

However, this does not mean that others will accept Sun Bi's request. Someone immediately jumped out and said, "Even if Li Ling has no doubt about His Majesty and the court's loyalty, he cannot be used at this time. As Your Majesty said, Li Ling is still worried about obeying the rules and regulations. According to the rules, after his parents die, those who are sons should be filial for twenty-seven months before they can return to the court, otherwise they are unfilial. Our Dayue court has always established the country with loyalty and filial piety. How can we make an exception for him alone?"

Now Wei Liang is not easy to speak for his students. Rules are rules and no one can change them.

Even Sun Bi was so sad that he couldn't deal with this statement.

The reason why he asked for this is that on the one hand, he believed in Li Ling's ability, and he also felt that with him supplying food and supplies behind his back, he could not have any worries. On the other hand, he did have a certain selfish desire to help Li Ling get rid of his current situation as soon as possible.

After passing the previous Cao Gang case, Sun Bi also saw how fragile and dangerous Li Ling was no longer in office. Once any enemy was aiming at him, he would be out of reach in the capital or the northern border, and Li Ling might suffer.

So I thought of taking this opportunity to restore Li Ling’s official position and at the same time, I could make a great contribution with him and plan for the future. But now it seems that such a plan cannot be realized. After all, filial piety is very important in the eyes of the ministers in the court.

Just when the few people were silent and could not say anything, Wen Ming spoke slowly: "Your Majesty, I think that since the court can use Li Ling, it can restore his love, because when it comes to the transportation of food and supplies in the northern border, no one in the court can compare to Li Wenzhong who created all the grain transport routes today." Half of his words were to the emperor, and the other half was to remind the King of England that there was another trick to seize love.

But Lord Yin once again sang a counter-topic with them: "It is human nature for a son to be filial and to be filial to his father, so the court does not allow him to be filial. It is a common nature for him to recall the person back to the court to apply for it, so it is called human nature!

"But because of this, the act of seizing love has always been difficult to abuse. Since the Tang and Song dynasties, few officials in the court have been seizureed. There are only things in the border areas that require filial generals to guard and lead troops to take such measures. Therefore, I think that this time, the act of seizing love must not be used on Li Ling!"

Lord Yin's words made the prince and others feel energetic. Yes, only military generals have always been taken away for war, so how can civil officials be taken away? Compared with military generals, civil officials are too substitutable.

But before these people could agree, the King of Ying had already spoken first: "Your Majesty, what Lord Yin said may be reasonable. According to the rules of origin, there are exceptions in everything. Although Li Ling was a civil servant, his role in logistics support was not inferior to that of famous generals at the border. With him allocating supplies from the rear, I think our army's chances of victory could be increased by 30%. In this way, even if he is a civil servant, he can be regarded as a military general. I hope Your Majesty will clearly understand."

The emperor seemed to be a little moved by him, and he couldn't help but ponder. Seeing this, even the prince couldn't sit still, and he raised his courage and said, "King Ying, you are too exaggerating? Isn't it possible for anyone of my many pillars of the court officials in Dayue to compare with Li Ling?"

This is to raise hatred for Li Ling, which is really sinister. Sun Bi replied immediately: "I must use Li Ling, but he is more at ease in logistics. If the prince really feels that he can replace him, then I have no choice. But Your Majesty, I only ask for one sentence to ask the person who replaces Li Ling to provide logistics support for our army. As long as there is a problem with the supply along the way, he will assume all the responsibility!"
