Chapter 2 Xuanzong's Marriage(2/2)
"Okay! OK! OK!" Li Longji praised: "You three are people who have been on the battlefield. You have the intention to fight as soon as you hear my words. This is very good, I am pleased. Chen Wanrong, if you can't go to the battlefield, I'll talk about it next year. Ge Shuhan, you can't participate in this battle."
"Your Majesty, do you think your minister is a Turkic person and cannot be trusted?" Geshuhan became anxious.
How many times can you encounter such a large-scale war in your life? It is impossible to ask Brother Shuhan not to be anxious.
"You are a Turkic person. I will not doubt your loyalty, but you have another delegation." Li Longji asked someone to expand a map, walked to the map, pointed to the map and said, "Look. In the coming year, the Tang Dynasty will inevitably fight with Mochu in the north. At that time, what should I do if Dashi takes the opportunity to seize the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions? Therefore, I decided to increase troops to the Western Regions when I increase troops in the North.
"The road to the Western Regions was not easy to walk, and now it is deep winter, and the cold road is ice and snow, making it even more difficult to march. However, I believe that the men of the Tang Dynasty can overcome this difficulty and successfully reach the Western Regions.
"Of course, this time, you need a general who is familiar with the Western Regions. Didn't your brother Shuhan come from the Western Regions? I will send you to lead the reinforcements to the Western Regions."
When Ge Shu Han heard this, he was overjoyed: "Your Majesty, aren't you asking me to go home?"
Geshuhan's father Geshu Daoyuan was once the deputy general of the Western Regions Protectorate. Geshuhan was born in the Western Regions because of this. This time he led his army to reinforce the Western Regions, which was like going home.
Li Longji continued to say, "Ge Shuhan, your trip to the Western Regions is not to reinforce the Western Regions. I have decided to hand over the affairs of guarding the Western Regions to you."
This is a heavy responsibility for Comrade Shuhan. Geshuhan never expected it and couldn't help but be stunned: "Your Majesty, this... I am still young and shallow, so I may not be able to take on the heavy responsibility."
"Young? Good for young! I'm not very young too?" Li Longji asked back.
