Chapter 656
Li Liangsheng entered the palace early in the morning. Because it was not early morning and the emperor did a lot of things and had to discuss matters with the cabinet before meeting him.
He was placed in the east pavilion of the imperial study room and waited for almost an hour before he was summoned to enter.
With a nervous mood, he walked in step by step. The officials in the cabinet in the main hall of the Imperial Study Room were there. When he saw him coming in, he looked at him with the same expectation.
He didn't care about speculation and just stepped forward to salute, "My minister Li Liangsheng will meet the emperor!"
The emperor's voice came gently, "The Marquis is not a gift!"
Hearing the emperor's tone and tone, Li Liangsheng's heart was slightly relieved, at least not asking about the crime of the Battle of Su Dong.
However, the emperor's next words made him feel like he fell into an ice cellar.
"My dear, now the Beimo army is approaching and gradually meeting with the Xianbei. It has the intention of marching the army south. It is obvious that all my dear friends have discussed it just now. They all feel that they must fight the Beimo head-on to resolve the difficulties of the surrounding areas. My dear friends have fought with Beimo many times, except for the battle between Sudong and Dong, and they all have great victory. I want to let my dear friends take charge again to fight the coalition forces between Beimo and Xianbei. Do you have the confidence to repel the coalition forces and protect our Great Zhou Dynasty and the people?"
After hearing this, Li Liangsheng was cold all over and his heart was beating. Beimo and Xianbei had already intended to form an alliance. However, in the past, it was mostly the Beimo attack, the Xianbei attacked, and the guerrilla warfare. This time, the two countries met and the army gathered together, and there were at least one million lions. How could he fight?
"Love?"
Seeing that his expression was different, the emperor cried out without saying a word.
Li Liangsheng quickly came to his senses, hesitated for a moment, and bowed: "Your Majesty, I think that our Great Zhou army is weak now, the national treasury is empty and empty. If you want to fight against the coalition forces, you are afraid that you will not be able to meet the strength. I suggest that you might as well try a peace talk?"
The emperor's face suddenly sank, "Peace talks? Now that the army is approaching, peace talks are equivalent to ceding the city. Do you want me to cut off my land and seek peace?
In this way, the barbarians from all directions thought that my Great Zhou was weak and they were attacking. How many cities could I have to give way to?”
Lord Li said: "The emperor's words are reasonable. Now that the enemy is facing a verge of peace, it is equivalent to bowing down and offering our Dazhou hands to become a vassal state of the Northern Desert. How can our Dazhou subjects be bullied?
The words of Marquis Jiangning are really absent from his father’s mighty style.”
Li Liangsheng knew that Lord Li had always been inappropriate to him, and that he was the emperor's sister-in-law. The emperor relied heavily on him. It must have been him who instigated the emperor to send troops. Therefore, he said slightly: "Mr. Li is a civil servant, how could he know that the battlefield is dangerous?
After the battle of Sudong in the Great Zhou Dynasty, our vitality was greatly damaged. With our current forces to fight against the coalition forces of the Beimo and Xianbei, we undoubtedly hit stones with eggs and sacrificed the lives of the soldiers in vain. It would be better to negotiate to preserve our strength first and declare war on the Beimo after our army grows."
Lord Li said coldly: "Marty, if my Great Zhou becomes a vassal state of the Beimo and Xianbei, or is divided up by the two countries, how can we have the opportunity to strengthen our military power?
How could it be possible to declare war on the North Desert again?
Now is the last chance. If we fight against the enemy, we may still have hope. If peace talks are made, we will bow our heads and surrender. The emperor said that cedes the city is a erratic statement. Once the coalition forces invade, they will not resist, and the final result will be the country and the family will be destroyed."
Li Liangsheng was stunned, "Mr. Li's words are alarmist. No matter how big the Beimo has, can we swallow our Great Zhou?"
Lord Li laughed in anger, "Otherwise, Lord Li thought that the alliance between Beimo and Xianbei was a friend?
Their purpose is to annex the Great Zhou and divide the Great Zhou. What's going on, Marquis?
After being entangled with Beimo for several years, you have always been ambitious. Why did you seem to be afraid of being beaten after the battle between Sudong?"
Li Liangsheng was young and full of energy. After hearing Lord Li's words, he immediately said angrily: "Who said I am afraid?"
This marquis is just considering the most beneficial method to the Great Zhou. If the emperor and all the adults think that this battle should be fought and cannot retreat, this marquis will be ordered to fight against the Beimo and Xianbei coalition forces."
When the emperor heard this, he looked at him and said slowly: "Are you sure about the Marquis?"
"I will do my best!"
Li Liangsheng had already said the harsh words, and had no way out, so he could only bite the bullet and go.
The emperor said calmly: "Okay, I will give you the tiger talisman and give you the title of the Grand Marshal of the World, choose a day to order troops, and fight against the coalition forces of the Beimo and Xianbei!"
Li Liangsheng knelt down, "I received the order, and I will definitely live up to the holy hope. I will lead my great army that will never go against the disadvantages of the Great Zhou Dynasty and defeat the Beimo and Xianbei army!"
"good!"
The emperor said excitedly: "On the day when the general sent troops, I will send you off with all the officials in the city gates, and then the general will return in triumphant success!"
Cabinet officials said one after another: "I'll wait for the general to return in triumph."
The louder the sound of waving high apart, the more scared Li Liangsheng was.
After he sued, the cabinet and others had not left.
Lord Li said worriedly: "Your Majesty, Jiang Ning Hou does not seem to have much confidence. If the general lacks confidence, it will affect the morale of the army."
The emperor was also frowning, "I can see that, but he is the one who has the most experience against Beimo. If he doesn't order him as the coach, who can take on this important task?"
In recent years, too many generals have been lost. How can General Zhen be overwhelmed by his old age?
Although the Marquis of Yasukuni was strong in middle age, he had not been on the battlefield for a long time and had no experience in Beimo, so he could not be a handsome man.
Changsun Ba can be used more, but although this person is brave and shrewd, he has a weak appeal and cannot be determined by the army. It is okay for him to accompany Li Liangsheng to the war, but he is not a talented man of a great commander.
Li Liangsheng... The emperor was full of confidence in him, but now he seemed to be scared when he saw his attitude, and he was very disappointed.
Master Wu from the cabinet said: "Your Majesty, I heard some rumors among the army and the people that the former Marquis of Jiangning went to war, and his wife Chen Jinning was accompanied by him. He himself did not have the ability to be in command and plan. If these rumors were true, then my Great Zhou was in danger!"
After Lord Wu said this, a minister scolded him: "Then Chen Jinning is a villain and is a treason. How can such a ridiculous statement be circulated among the people and the army?
Wouldn't it be even more unscrupulous?"
Lord Li looked at the emperor's face and said, "Your Majesty, I think Chen Jinning is in charge of the enemy's treason. There is something strange about the fact that it is probably a cover-up of the defeat of Jiangning Hou."
The emperor said lightly: "This matter has passed, don't mention it again. No matter what the truth is, the Great Zhou cannot damage the generals at this joint. Just do that."
The emperor also did not believe that a woman had the talent of a general. Li Liangsheng was the tiger son of the old Marquis of Jiangning. He was born in a general, so he naturally inherited the might of the Marquis and had the ability to dominate the battlefield.
