Chapter 722: The Question in Xu Maogong's Heart (Three Changes)
"You kid have to help me, otherwise I'll have to be beaten with a military stick this time." Wei Chigong sat helplessly in the pioneer tent and said to Li Tai.
"Uncle Wei Chi, how can I help you with your sentence that has no beginning or end? At the very least, you have to let me know what happened, so I can help you think about it, right? Li Tai asked Wei Chigong.
After all, Li Tai couldn't follow Wei Chigong's side and go to the big tent of the Chinese army. Because then it is easy for others to see through your identity.
Although Li Tai can use the disguise technique in the Qing Bao Book to completely change his appearance. But that can only change your appearance, and there are many things that you can't change.
For those who are not familiar with themselves, they can naturally get by in the dark. If you are in front of someone you are familiar with, I am afraid that it will be easy to show your feet.
"Isn't this the chief of the Ahui tribe, who has swallowed up the cavalry in the hands of the other four chiefs. Now the number of cavalry in his hands has reached more than 100,000. ”
"So that bull-nosed old man, ready to let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince subdue these more than 100,000 cavalry......" Then Wei Chigong told Li Tai in detail what happened.
It turned out that it was Xu Mao Gong who asked Wei Chigong to be on the battlefield and find a way to kill the chief of the Ahui Tribe. And there are also those main generals in the army, it is better to deal with them together. If he can't do it, he will be beaten with fifty sticks.
This made Wei Chigong feel a little embarrassed, if he let him kill them with real knives and guns. For Wei Chigong, I'm afraid there is no difficulty.
But if you let Wei Chigong use intrigue and trickery, let them go to the hands of the Khitans to die. Wei Chigong really didn't know how to do it.
After Li Tai understood everything, he said to Wei Chigong with a smile: "It turned out to be this matter, I thought it was a big thing that flew into the sky?" ”
Seeing Li Tai's indifferent expression, Wei Chigong said angrily: "You kid is too inauthentic, if I can't do this tomorrow, my ass will not be opened by that bull-nosed old way." ”
"Not only did you kid not want to help me, but he was talking about it there. Believe it or not, we'll just break up, and I'll hand you over to that bull-nosed old man tomorrow. ”
"Why is Uncle Wei Chi so anxious, I didn't say I wouldn't help you. But I can't do it for you. Otherwise, it will make Uncle Xu feel that I am by your side. Li Tai said to Yu Chigong with a smile.
Although Xu Maogong now suspects that there are people around Wei Chigong who are secretly helping him. I even thought that this person was Li Tai, but at present, Xu Maogong was not sure.
That's why he embarrassed Wei Chi Gong again and again, hoping to force Li Tai out. It's not that Xu Maogong wants Li Zhi to know that Li Tai is there. Rather, I want to make sure that my conjecture is correct.
This is not Xu Maogong to satisfy his curiosity, but to confirm something. That is, whether Li Zhi sent troops to conquer the Khitan and Xi States was Li Tai's idea.
If Li Tai proposed it to Li Shimin, then I am afraid that Li Tai would have two motives. One is to use the hands of Khitan and Xi Guo to get rid of the crown prince Li Zhi.
Another possibility is that Li Tai is ready to let Li Zhi take advantage of the opportunity to conquer the Khitan and Xi States this time. Establish your prestige in the court.
Whatever Li Tai's motives were, it would be possible for Li Shimin to agree to his suggestion. That means that Li Tai absolutely assured Li Shimin that Li Zhi's trip was absolutely dangerous.
Therefore, Xu Mao Gong was very concerned about whether Li Tai was following Wei Chigong's side. If Li Tai really followed Wei Chigong's side, then Xu Maogong would have to pay more attention.
Because Li Tai does not disclose his identity, there are two possibilities. One is that he doesn't want others to know that he is secretly helping Li Zhi. In the end, let others feel that this credit was not made by Li Zhi alone.
The second reason, which Xu Maogong doesn't want to see, is that Li Tai is secretly calculating Li Zhi, and it is possible that Li Zhi will really have no return on this trip.
And Li Tai naturally knew that Xu Maogong had to know what the reason was for whether he was in the army. So he was even more reluctant to let Xu Maogong be sure that he was by Wei Chigong's side.
"If you don't help me, can anyone else do this?" Wei Chigong asked Li Tai puzzled.
"Yes, and the person who can help you do this is none other than His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. As long as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is willing to take action, tomorrow's affairs are nothing at all. Li Tai said to Xu Maogong with a smile.
"I see that you are talking more and more like that bull-nosed old man, can't you say anything directly? You have to go around in circles. Wei Chigong said unhappily.
"Do you think that the father asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to lead the troops to the battle, and he is really so relieved. Although there are two uncles to protect them, after all, the battlefield is changing rapidly. ”
"Therefore, the father will inevitably think about the safety of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. If I'm not mistaken, there's a good chance that the Big Dipper Nine Guards are by the Prince's side. Even if not all of them were there, at least a few people would follow the prince. Li Tai said to Yu Chigong with a smile.
"This is very possible, but even if the Big Dipper Nine Guards are by the Prince's side, what can I do to let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince lend the Big Dipper Nine Guards to me?" Wei Chigong nodded and asked Li Tai.
"Since the ancient road, please be better than the radical general, Uncle Wei Chi can say this, like this, like this. At that time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely lend you the Big Dipper Nine Guards voluntarily. Li Tai whispered in Wei Chigong's ear.
"You're a bad kid, but it's a great idea. Don't say that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will fall for this radical method, even if it is the emperor's personal conscription, he may not be able to endure it. Wei Chigong said to Li Tai with a smile.
……
Early the next morning, Wei Chigong came to Li Zhi's big tent. and knelt directly in front of Li Zhi, and said with tears in his eyes: "His Royal Highness the Prince, my lieutenant Chi Gong is afraid of delaying your major affairs, and I am willing to take the fifty military sticks." ”
"Why is the vanguard general like this? Is there really no way to do this? Li Zhi hurriedly stretched out his hand to help Wei Chigong up, and then asked.
"That bull-nosed old man actually has a crooked idea, if I want Yu Chi Gong to kill them with a real knife and a real gun. Even if they are allowed to go together, my Wei Chigong will not frown half of his eyebrows. ”
"But let the ministers on the battlefield unaware and kill them all. The minister thought about it for a night, but he didn't come up with a single way. Therefore the ministers were willing to suffer the punishment of this military stick. Wei Chigong said to Li Zhi with a sigh.
Hearing Wei Chigong say this, Li Tai also felt very helpless. So he opened his mouth and said to Wei Chigong: "The pioneer general has been fighting on the battlefield all his life, can't he really think of any way?" ”
"There is a way, this is not far from Youzhou. Let the minister go to Youzhou and borrow Li Tai's boy's star guard. That's definitely not a problem. Wei Chigong opened his mouth and said to Li Tai.
Hearing Wei Chigong's words, Li Zhi couldn't help but be stunned. It's not that he has any opinions about Li Tai, but he has always felt that Li Tai is better than him. even felt that Li Tai was more suitable to be the prince.
But after all, now that he is the crown prince, if he leads the army for the first time. If you want to ask Li Tai for help, then this face will be a bit embarrassing.
