The strongest emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Chapter 883 The Age of Guns of the Youzhou Army (Part [-])
"Tang Qiang, Tang Qiang, you still don't know how to repent. You think that since this king knows what you want, how can this king let you go?" Li Tai looked at Tang Qiang and said helplessly.

"Could it be, could it be, could it be that Tang Xiao was also arranged by you? Impossible, it is absolutely impossible, but he has surrendered to Huang Quan, who is so close." Tang Qiang said in disbelief.

"You overestimate the Yellow Spring that is so close. This king can drink your Huangquan as tea. How can you let him hurt my subordinates." Li Tai said with a look of disdain.

"Not only I, Tang Qiang, underestimated you, but even the current Empress Wu Ze underestimated you. Because of this trough, she is doomed to fail."

"Hahaha, it turns out that everyone in this world is played by you alone in the applause. It seems that I, Tang Qiang, was really wrong." Tang Qiang said with self-deprecation.

At this time, Tang Xiao, the right elder, walked into the Yin'an Hall.After saluting to Li Tai, he said: "My lord, according to Tang Qiang's list, the subordinates have already controlled all those who betrayed the lord."

"Since they chose to rely on Tang Qiang, let them go there with Tang Qiang to make troubles. I don't want to see them again." Li Tai said after waving his hands.

"My lord, if I kill Tang Qiang now, I'm afraid I'll startle the snake. It's not too late to kill Tang Qiang after all the dust settles." Xu Liang said to Li Tai.

"Don't worry, military advisor. I have been in charge of the communication with Tang Aoshan during this period. So even if Tang Qiang is dead, the other party may not find out in a short time." Tang Xiao said to Xu Liang.

"I don't have time to spend my thoughts on them right now. The most important thing now is to save Xue Rengui's family." Li Tai said.

"My lord, what do you mean by this? After five years of conquering the West, Big Brother Xue has absolutely made great achievements in the battle. How could the emperor kill heroes so indiscriminately?" Xu Liang asked Li Tai worriedly.

"I'm afraid the emperor at this time can no longer take care of so much. Now the emperor is no longer in power in the palace, but the empress Wu Ze."

"He gained power from the emperor in order to emptied the emperor. Then people who are loyal to the emperor have become her biggest obstacle."

"Now Yu Chigong's military power has been taken back by Wu Ze. After Cheng Yaojin comes back, I'm afraid he will have to retire."

"And the king's uncle, the grandson, has now left the center of power. So there is no one in the court who can check and balance Wu Ze." Li Tai said with a sigh.

Luo Song nodded and said: "Your Highness is right. The biggest obstacle for the empress now is Your Highness and Xue Rengui who holds a heavy army."

"Now the queen feels that His Highness has been controlled by Tang Qiang, so the only remaining confidant is a serious problem. It is Ping Liao King Xue Rengui."

"My lord, don't let big brother Xue get into trouble. We have to find a way to save him." Qin Huaiyu said to Li Tai.

"Everyone, don't worry, I guess it won't be long before the king will receive the imperial decree. Call me to Chang'an City, and then I will naturally find a way to rescue Xue Rengui." Li Tai said.

"My lord, it's probably not wise to go to Chang'an City at this critical moment. If the queen really has evil intentions, my lord's trip may be very dangerous." Liu Rengui said to Li Tai.

"If it's something else, I can refuse it. But how can I refuse the wedding of my son?" Li Tai said.

The news of the return of Li Tai's eldest son, Li Xin, was already known to everyone.But he didn't know whose girl Li Xin was going to marry.

"My lord, even if the young prince is going to get married, he should hold the wedding in Youzhou City. Why does my lord go to Chang'an City?" Liu Rengui asked puzzled.

"Now Li Xin has been named the King of Liaodong County by the emperor. And this kid just fell in love with Xue Rengui's girl when he came back. Now the two of them are like glue."

"Furthermore, the emperor has promised that after the triumphant return, he will personally witness the marriage of the two. Therefore, the wedding ceremony must be held in Chang'an City."

"However, what Liu Xiang said is also very reasonable. This king thinks that Wu Ze will probably use this opportunity to get rid of this king and Xue Rengui's family together." Li Tai said.

"It seems that this matter is indeed difficult to handle. If the Lord does not go to Chang'an City, it will definitely leave an excuse for the Queen. At that time, people in the world will say that the Lord has a heart of disobedience."

"It will even pour a lot of dirty water on the lord, and those Confucianism and the five surnames and seven sects who have been against the lord, I am afraid they will take the opportunity to stand up."

"If the image of the lord collapses, it will become a rebellion in Xiangchang'an King Qin. At that time, the whole world will probably rise again." Liu Rengui said with a sigh.

If Li Tai is labeled as an anti-king, then countless princes in the world will do the same.Moreover, the five surnames and seven sects may also support the person they choose.

At that time, the world that was just peaceful will probably return to the chaos of war again.I'm afraid it won't even be smaller than the turmoil in the last years of the Sui Dynasty.

"That's why I have to go to Chang'an City. Only I have the upper hand in name. Only then can I deter those Xiao Xiaoxiao." Li Tai nodded and said.

"My lord, it's actually not difficult. In the past few years, we have completed mass production of front-loading muskets."

"Now our army can issue new front-loading muskets at any time. At that time, our army's combat effectiveness will be multiplied, so why should we be afraid of the tens of thousands of defenders in Chang'an City?"

"If the queen dares to be unfavorable to the lord, at worst we lead troops to capture his city of Chang'an." Gao Ping said to Li Tai.

"How many muzzle-loading muskets are in stock now, enough to equip the entire army?" Li Tai asked after nodding his head.

Now Li Tai's army has more than [-] troops.If the entire army is to be equipped with musket-loading muskets, at least [-] muskets are needed, even if the logistics and supply troops are excluded.

Hearing that Li Tai was going to equip the whole army, Gao Ping couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.So he said: "Some time ago, according to the request of the lord, the production of musket-loading muskets has been stopped."

"Now the inventory is only more than [-]. So if you want to equip the whole army, I'm afraid the quantity is not enough."

"Then hand over the musket-loading muskets in the hands of the Imperial Guards to the army. Do your best to change the army collectively." Li Tai said
Hearing that Li Tai was going to equip the army with musket-loading muskets, Qin Huaiyu couldn't sit still.Hastily opened his mouth and said to Li Tai: "My lord, I gave all the muskets to the army, so what will our Imperial Guards use?"

It turned out that two years ago, the front-loading musket had already been equipped to the Imperial Guards.At that time, Lu Wanda was jealous.

"Iron Guards are the king's personal guards, and their fighting power should naturally be the strongest in the entire army. So this front-loading musket is not good enough for you." Li Tai said to Qin Huaiyu with a smile.

"General Qin, don't worry, my lord has already prepared new weapons for you. And the power is definitely better than this front-loading musket." Gao Ping looked at Qin Huaiyu and said.
