Chapter 120 Victory Master
Ah Khan sorted out his words and said, "Whether this prince of the Tang Dynasty is credible or not is not a matter of concern to us. In the past, we sent caravans to collect some information, and had to sneak and cover up, for fear of being discovered."
"Now, the Prince of the Tang Dynasty personally invited us to participate in the great cause. Why don't we try? Besides, we are only responsible for conveying information and conveying the prince of the Tang Dynasty's thoughts to the king. Will he agree? Who will send him to the end? That's all his decision. Why do we worry about this? Uncle, right?"
That's right. Only at this moment, when my uncle faces the passionate Ah Khan, will he have a thought.
He is really old.
Too many concerns.
Worrying about the use of these things is, a plan that will go through many twists and turns from birth to results, and these are not something they can control.
Thinking of doing it, Ah Han grinds it for him, he personally wrote down Ah Han's surprise encounters along the way...
In November of winter, Bingyin, Weihe Ferry.
The Tang army, which had been separated for nearly three months, finally met successfully at this busy ferry crossing.
When Li Jun saw Wumingzi and Li Duozuo riding on the war horse from afar, his heart was like a turbulent wave.
ah!
The pride of returning home with great victory is nothing more than that.
Li Jun finally fulfilled his promise to the Tang army brothers and took them back to Luoyang before the ice was frozen.
He did it!
He succeeded!
Wumingzi and Li Duozuo rushed over and said hello to Li Jun excitedly.
"Your Highness, we are back!"
"Okay, it's good to be back!"
Li Jun held their hands affectionately and showed the old mother's smile.
His eyes were sour and his mouth was salty. He finally realized that it was him who was crying.
These are tears of touch, true tears, true feelings.
Li Jun was sad to find that after more than a month of battle, Wumingzi actually became much darker.
He looks like a big bronze bell now.
What he didn't realize was that in fact, he himself was two more blacker than when he set out from Luoyang.
Li Duozuo and Wumingzi both saw this.
The army finally joined forces, there was nothing to say, so we set up camp here today.
The general's tent was set up, and Li Jun quickly grabbed Wumingzi and came in to chat.
It was not until the few people sat down that he noticed that there was a big man who followed Wumingzi and the others in.
He had curly hair, slightly reddish-brown, deep concave eye sockets, and looked in his forties. Li Jun felt that this person looked very familiar.
But it is definitely not someone he met in the Luoyang court, but someone he met with the predecessor of the crown prince, and his predecessor was not very familiar with this person.
Otherwise, Li Jun would have recognized him from the first glance.
Wumingzi has always been agile. When he saw Li Jun looking at Shatuo Zhongyi and thinking hard, he immediately introduced: "Your Highness, this is the chief supervisor of the Lingwu Army and General Shatuo Zhongyi."
"A general who defeated the army, please see His Highness the Crown Prince."
"Wu Mingzi is a traitor. I'm completely wiped out. How could I be called a general? I'm just an old man."
Shatuo Loyalty and righteousness saluted deeply, and then said to Wumingzi.
His expression was obviously not to blame Wu Mingzi, but to be a little ashamed.
By the way, he is Shatuo Zhongyi, and Li Jun finally remembered this person.
In the military newspaper of the court, didn’t he say he was missing? Why did he appear again?
Could it be that it is haunted?
No wonder he looked bitter since he entered the door, like a frost-beating eggplant.
According to what he said, the Lingwu Army was indeed wiped out. Then, if this person follows them back to Luoyang, it would be a disaster!
Even though he thought so, Li Jun politely advised: "General Shatuo, the matter has come to this point, you don't have to blame yourself too much."
"Your Highness, I am not in good command. The Tang army's defeat was caused by me alone. I deserve to die!"
"The border town has fallen, and the soldiers have fought. If General Li and the others had not supported him with all their strength, how could I have the face to meet Tianyan in person!"
Look, this old man, he really howled when he said he was crying.
Tens of thousands of soldiers died and several cities were lost. To be honest, Li Jun couldn't even lift his energy even if he wanted to sympathize with him.
A battle is originally the main general who is responsible for it.
The court raises you to win battles.
Not only did you fail to win, you also compensated so many soldiers for their lives, which made me restless in the borders of the Tang Dynasty. In which dynasty and of which generation are unforgivable sins.
As the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, he represented the attitude of the entire court. When dealing with this matter, he must master the standards.
"General Shatuo, the court has its own opinions on the responsibility of defeat. It's not my turn to intervene. I just want to ask you, what do you want to do when you and I go back to Luoyang this time?"
"You know, now the court thought you were missing, and you might have escaped and died. If you go back now, you can only fall into the trap and there will be no good results."
Alas, the road back to Luoyang will not be so smooth. Wumingzi understood Li Jun's care.
Just as he was silent, Li Duozuo could no longer hold back.
He pulled Li Jun and talked endlessly about Shatuo Zhongyi's experience, saying from beginning to end, ignoring Li Jun's impatientness.
Lee Duozuo's enthusiasm is really unbearable.
Yao Kui, who is familiar with Li Jun's personality, occasionally peeks at him. Fortunately, although he is impatient, he still maintains the peace on the surface.
However, reality is not as perfect as Li Duozuo expected.
It seems that Li Jun, as the crown prince, won a great victory this time and won the Tubo Turks' double-line victory, which is really a great contribution.
As long as Li Xian is not confused and the ministers in the court are not blind, they will praise his achievements.
The defeated general Shatuo Zhongyi followed Li Jun back to the court. Even if these ministers hated him, they would sell his noble face.
Maybe, he won't be killed.
But the situation faced by Prince Li Jun is much more complicated and unreasonable.
Li Jun believes that this victory will bring him more suspicion, doubt, and even hatred.
Wu Sansi's minions didn't know what to do with this victory. Although he couldn't guess, he was sure that they would not miss this opportunity.
Rationalizing the use of explosives is another major problem.
If it were added to the burden of Shatuo Zhongyi, this matter would probably be even more difficult to deal with.
Shatuo will definitely argue for the soldiers of the Lingwu Army in the court. To be honest, many of the rewards to the soldiers in recent years have not been in place.
It is not easy for Li Jun to ensure that the reinforcements he led receive reasonable rewards.
With his current prestige in the court, it is very difficult for these powerful ministers to recognize the achievements of the Lingwu Army.
