"Imperial Commander in Personal Envoy?" In the imperial study, Li Jian's eyes widened, looking at Xu Enmao who had returned from Cao Yi's mansion.

"Yes, I will personally lead the army!" Xu Enmao nodded affirmatively, "Your Majesty, I think carefully. This is indeed the best way to alleviate the current crisis."

Li Jian sat down slowly. He spent most of his first half of his life in the military and was not unfamiliar with commanding and fighting, but his identity is very different now. Individual expeditions represent too many meanings and gives people more imagination. He must be cautious. Individual expeditions basically means that his regime has reached its most critical moment. Strictly speaking, it is a lonely move.

The ancestors of Dayue served as emperors, and there were many things that the emperor personally led the imperial army at that time. However, when the emperor personally led the army, they basically fought against the Mongolians and fought against foreigners. The whole country was united and the domestic affairs were stable. The emperor did not have to think about it much. Victory would boost domestic morale and stabilize the rule. Even if he was defeated, he would have no fundamental impact on the overall situation. But now, it is different. This is the battle for the orthodox throne, and it is an internal struggle between the two brothers to fight for the throne. There have always been different voices among the people about the legitimacy of his ascension. Especially the outflow of the old emperor's legitimate emperor has become a sting in Li Jian's heart. If he fails this time, it basically represents his own collapse.

"Your Majesty, the situation is at its peak!" Xu Enmao said softly: "In the capital, rumors spread everywhere, Xue Chengyi was destroyed, causing Tongzhou to fall, Weizhou was in danger, and there were only tens of thousands of troops in Weizhou. How can we resist the rebels like wolves and tigers? Weizhou is like a trap. The rebels can reach Shangjing directly, and it would be too late at that time! Therefore, blocking the rebels in Weizhou is the top priority."

"Just send a general, why should I personally go to the army?"

"Your Majesty, now the lieutenant generals, die or rebel, who can survive the crisis? Besides Your Majesty, who else can lead tens of thousands of troops to fight? What's more, the Yulin Army and Modao Team in the Beijing are already the last force of the empire. Can you rest assured to hand over such a force to other people?"

Li Jian stood up and circled in the study. Xu Enmao made sense. The general in the court died or rebelled, but now there is no one available.

"If this battle is defeated again, the consequences will be unimaginable!" Li Jian expressed his worries.

"Why should your Majesty be more ambitious and destroy your own might?" Xu Enmao said loudly: "Before Your Majesty ascended to the great treasure, he was a general in command of the army and had military strategies. Few people have reached it, and Su Can Congliang was only a young general at that time. Moreover, although Su Can Congliang is known as the army of 200,000, it is actually far from that."

"What do you mean? Information from all aspects shows that Su Cong's two rebels did have more than 200,000 troops."

"Your Majesty. When Li Xiao led his army to fight against the Mongolians, the four guards and the towns in various places had indeed exceeded 200,000, but over the years, there have been constant wars. How can these elite soldiers who have fought for war not be damaged? I am afraid that the losses are quite large. Especially in the Battle of Tengchong, when the years of fierce fighting with the Mongolian army, the elite soldiers in this army dare not say that they have lost at least one third. The so-called 200,000 troops are only the newly captured soldiers or recruited new soldiers.

During the battle, there was insufficient training, and Su Cong and his two men had no stable logistics support. The equipment of the army was even more good and of different quality, and their combat effectiveness was far inferior to when they first left the capital. His Majesty's Yulin Army is now in good condition and fully equipped. Compared with the two, we have already gained the upper hand. What's more, His Majesty's Modao Team has more than 10,000 people in his hand. This is a powerful weapon for our Dayue country-controlled team. With the Modao Team of more than 10,000 people, Su Can and Congliang dare to fight against His Majesty in the field?" Xu Enmao's expression was excited.

"As long as Your Majesty leads the army in person, he will definitely defeat the rebels in Weizhou. As long as he wins a huge military victory, the political problems will be solved!" Xu Enmao said excitedly.

"What you said makes sense!" Li Jian stopped and looked at Xu Enmao, "Enmao, is this the answer you discussed with Cao Yi?"

"yes!"

"Do you think Cao Yi can make people feel relieved?" Li Jian asked.

"Your Majesty, if it were not for Cao Yi and General Guan, we would not have won so smoothly. What's more, Li Xiao was forced to die in the world and almost went to the underworld. Your Majesty, do you think there is a possibility of reconciliation between them? With Cao Yi's family and great business, how could he not consider the Cao family?"

Li Jian nodded slowly, "You are right. The emperor personally fought, hey, okay, I will go on the battlefield and wiped out all the gangs of traitors in Weizhou."

"Your Majesty is wise!"

"I led my army to Weizhou, 100,000 Yulin Army and 10,000 Modao Team. I want to slap Su Cong rebel group and go to Beijing. I will leave 10,000 Yulin Army for you to look forward to my home."

"Yes, your Majesty!"

"Shangjing is not far from Weizhou. You can make decisions on general affairs at a glance. If you have any difficulties, it will only take a few days to get back and forth."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty!" Xu Enmao bowed to the ground.

In the inner courtyard of the palace, the Empress Dowager looked at Li Jian: "You want to lead the imperial army to fight in person?"

"Yes, mother, in a state of crisis, the rebels pressed forward step by step to capture Tongzhou and approach Weizhou. My son could only lead the army in the capital to suppress the rebellion." Li Jian nodded and said, "Don't worry, my Li family has the tradition of being an emperor in charge in person. Even the former emperor had been to the desert, not to mention that this time my son was just going to Weizhou."

The Empress Dowager said sadly: "It's all the traitor Cheng Qun. When you ascended the throne, this person deliberately obstructed him. The Ai family's phoenix chariot blocked his military camp before blocking him. If he had known that he was in such a disaster now, you should have killed him immediately after you ascended the throne."

Li Jianqiang smiled and said, "My son had just ascended the throne. Cheng Qun was a minister left by the late emperor. He had a high prestige in the army. If his son did this, he would probably cause chaos. Forget it, it would be too late to say this now. However, this time the rebels trapped Tongzhou, Cheng Qun did not participate, and his army returned to Jingzhou."

"What does this traitor want to do?" the Empress Dowager gritted her teeth.

"What else does he want to do? It's just that I'm fighting with my fourth brother, and he's waiting for a price." Li Jian waved his head, "If you keep this villain, even if you gain power for a while, it won't last long. No one will believe him anymore. The Queen Mother doesn't care about him. Queen Mother, this time I'll go to Weizhou and prepare to take Mian'er with me."

"Mian'er is only ten years old, what should you do on the dangerous battlefield?" The Empress Dowager was shocked, "He is your eldest son."

"I'm not young at the age of ten. My son wants him to see what the real battlefield is, not to mention that he is with me, and there is any danger at all. If he still encounters dangers around me, then..." Li Jian did not continue.

"I'm just a little worried. Mian'er grew up in the dean of the Shen Palace, let alone seeing such a bloody scene!"

"It is because I have never seen him before that my son wants him to see him. When Mianer grows up, she will take charge of this country. Her son has to be tough and let him experience more since he was a child."

"This is your man's business, you can do it yourself! Jian'er, when you go to Weizhou this time, you will bring Xinmei and her two daughters with you." The Empress Dowager suddenly sneered.

Li Jian was surprised, "Mother, this..."

"What's wrong? Is it possible that you are still thinking about brotherly love? Li Xiao rebelled and defeated the entire Dayue in chaos. Why didn't he tell him about brotherly love?"

"It's okay for Xinmei, but my fourth brother's two daughters are my Li family's blood!"

"Hmph! You care that they are the blood of the Li family. Li Xiao didn't think so much about it. Take them with you. When the two armies were fighting, you tie them to the flagpole. I want to see if Li Xiao's subordinates will launch an attack and kill their master's woman and daughter together!" The Empress Dowager said sternly.

"Son... I understand!" Li Jian whispered.

Cao Yi Mansion, back garden.

The plum blossoms were still blooming, and they were no longer singing and dancing. Cao Yi sat alone in the plum blossoms, drinking alone, and his face was leisurely and contented. The chaos in the capital did not seem to disturb his mood at all.

"Master! There is news!" The old butler walked in a hurry, coming from outside, standing beside Xiao Yi with his hands hanging down.

"But Your Majesty has agreed to the imperial command in person?" Cao Yi's face remained unchanged, and he took a sip of wine slowly. He watched a plum blossom fall in the wind. He reached out his hand and held the plum blossom in his hand, put it in his nose, and sniffed it deeply.

"It smells so good!" he praised in a low voice.

"Your Majesty has decided to lead the army in person!" said the old housekeeper: "Xu Enmao was ordered to stay in the capital. This time, His Majesty left the capital and took away 10,000 Yulin Army and 10,000 Modao Team, which was considered to be taking out the things at the bottom of the box."

"Of course I have to take out the things under my chest!" Cao Yi sneered, "If this battle is defeated, his country will collapse."

"But he won't win in this battle!" the old butler chuckled.

Cao Yi laughed, "He's gone, we're a little busy, Xu Enmao? Hehe, a shabby scholar, you're going to fight me, and you're a little tender."

"But Master, there is still something bad about it."

"Say!" Cao Yi's eyebrows stood up.

"The Empress Dowager gave the order to bring the Fourth Master's princess, Empress Xinmei and the two little princesses when His Majesty goes to war."

Cao Yi was stunned, then furious, and threw the wine glass onto a plum tree with a bang. "The most poisonous woman in the world, this old..." When the words came to his mouth, Cao Yi swallowed it back again. He pondered for a moment, "Go and ask Cao Ping to see me!"

"yes."

Cao Yi looked up at the sky, looked at the dark clouds, and sneered: "Your Majesty, your energy is gone. No matter how many people you bring, this time you will go but never return. Weizhou, you will never be able to arrive." With a robe sleeve, Cao Yi strode away from the back garden.
