I'm a marquis in Datang

Why did Du Qi want to suppress Datang.

Even though Du Qi has extremely powerful weapons in his hands, Li Shimin still has full fighting spirit at the moment.

Li Yuan said: "Forget it, you have to take care of yourself."

"My son retire!"

Li Shimin stood up and left the hall.

Li Yuan looked at Li Shimin's leaving back, and he sighed again.Because things have developed to this point, Xia Guo and Datang are even more irreconcilable, and one party must be destroyed.It's just that Du Qi's strength is getting stronger and stronger, and Li Yuan is very worried.

Li Shimin returned to the main hall, and Fang Xuanling arrived.

Fang Xuanling said: "Your Majesty, all the soldiers recruited today have been recruited. And now the supplementary standing army is also complete. The strength gathered in Chang'an has once again reached 20 people. Right now, the army is going up and down. Practice to form combat effectiveness."

Li Shimin nodded and said: "Drilling is necessary, but after all, they are soldiers of the government, and they have a certain fighting power. Xuanling, the soldiers' salaries and the meals of the soldiers must not be deducted. Right now, the morale of the soldiers must be stable. It is even more important to encourage the fighting spirit of the soldiers, so there will be no shortage of food and salaries for the soldiers.”

Fang Xuanling said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, although the imperial court said that taxes have been greatly reduced, the treasury of the Tang Dynasty has been enriched in recent years. Moreover, the granaries in various places are sufficient and sufficient."

Li Shimin nodded and said, "That's good."

A bright light flashed in his eyes, and he said: "We are now waiting for news from Persia. Once Persia sends troops, we will send troops quickly. It is only in the direction of Jiuquan, Suzhou. I hope Li Ji can delay as much as possible."

Fang Xuanling said: "Li Ji is a person who is good at planning, he will arrange it. After all, His Majesty has already informed him before. So now, His Majesty just needs to wait and see what happens."

After a pause, Fang Xuanling said again: "However, it is still necessary to send a letter to inform Li Ji and make him ready to stand firm. Because if Persia does not take action for a long time, Li Ji may not be able to guard for such a long time. In short, Let Li Ji make a decision on the fly."

Li Shimin nodded and said, "You arrange it."

The two monarchs and ministers talked about the frontline war, and they also had expectations.

Everything is ready, just waiting for news from Persia.

Although the turmoil in Datang continued, after the region stabilized, Jiuquan in June was even hotter.

Li Ji, who guards Jiuquan, is under more and more pressure.

During this period of time, he has been guarding.

After all, he never played.

And Du Qi's side never attacked.

For Li Ji, Du Qiyue didn't attack, but Li Ji was actually under tremendous pressure.On the contrary, if Du Qi attacked, because Li Ji was well prepared and could use the city wall to resist the bombardment, his strength of about [-] troops would be enough.

On this day, on the tower.

When Li Ji was inspecting the defense on the tower, it was the soldiers who came to inform Li Ji that Changsun Wuji invited him to go.Li Ji could only interrupt the patrol, and went back to the room directly.

Li Ji looked at Changsun Wuji and said, "Duke Qi, you told me to come back, but what's the matter?"

Changsun Wuji said: "Director Li, there is news from Chang'an now. In the territory of Tang Dynasty, His Majesty has arrested merchants from Xia Kingdom wantonly, and His Majesty has already summoned an army of more than 20. When the Persian side sends troops, His Majesty will Send troops to fight Du Qi again. Your Majesty's message now is to let us try to delay as long as possible, the longer the better. Of course, if we really can't hold it, and there is no movement in Persia, then we have to find our own way out."

Li Ji nodded and said: "It's okay right now, after all, we can persist. Right now, there is still enough food and so on."

Changsun Wuji said: "Anyway, we must also prepare for the road ahead."

Li Ji nodded.

He and Changsun Wuji discussed carefully and planned the follow-up arrangements.Since it is to be arranged, it is natural to arrange everything properly to ensure that there will be no unexpected situations.

Chapter 1137 Timely News

timely news

Outside Jiuquan City, the Xia Kingdom Military Camp.

Du Qi was reading a newspaper.

This newspaper is a newspaper in the Tang Dynasty, and it was handed over by bad people.As a matter of fact, the newspapers in the Tang Dynasty have already changed people. It is not controlled by Du Qi, but has become controlled by the Tang royal family.After all, such an important channel of public opinion, especially when Datang and Xia Kingdom are now hostile, it is impossible for Li Shimin to give up the newspaper as an important place of public opinion.

The news in the newspaper is that Datang arrested countless merchants from the Xia Kingdom.

This has been the news published for more than half a month in a row.

On the Tang side, they even began to frame many merchants from the Xia Kingdom, saying that these merchants from the Xia Kingdom were Du Qi's eyeliner, so as to gain the initiative in public opinion and not be on the passive side.

Du Qi was not surprised by this.

This is Datang's most normal method.

To Du Qi's surprise, Li Shimin actually managed to escape under the unfavorable situation.

, but also to add fuel to the fire, making the situation between the two sides intensify, which clearly means to fight to the end.

The problem is, Li Shimin wanted to fight to the end, but he never sent more troops to help Li Ji.

Li Ji was allowed to be blocked in Jiuquan City.

Du Qi always felt that the situation was not good. He carefully collected all the news in the Tang Dynasty and reread it all, but he still didn't find anything wrong.

Because Datang couldn't see any abnormalities for the time being, and couldn't tell what Li Shimin's intentions were.

After all, Li Shimin never took action.

At this moment, a soldier raised the curtain of the camp tent and entered. The soldier saluted and said, "Your Majesty, Yu Deshui, Commander Yu, please see me."

"pass!"

Du Qi gave an order.

Du Qi was a little surprised, because Yu Deshui had always been in charge of the imperial capital, dispatching all bad people.You must know that Tianzhu has just been conquered not long ago, which is related to the foundation of Tianzhu, so Yu Deshui's bad people have been arranging all over Tianzhu to ensure that Tianzhu is completely under control, so that there will be no problems.

After a while, the rest of the water entered.

After Yu Deshui entered, he bowed to Du Qiyi.

Du Qidao: "Yu Deshui, you came directly from the imperial capital to the front line, but what happened?"

Yu Deshui replied: "Reporting to Your Majesty, there is a situation in the Western Regions. Persia, which borders our Western Regions, has frequently mobilized troops, and has already gathered more than [-] people. Moreover, these forces suppressing the Persian borders are very powerful. The possibility of invading the border of the Xia Kingdom. Since the matter is of great importance and the domestic troops are not many, I rushed here as quickly as possible to inform His Majesty."

After Du Qi heard it, a flash of light flashed in his mind.

Understood!

Du Qi finally understood.

Originally, Du Qi couldn't figure out why Li Shimin and Xia Guo were so tough when they turned against each other. However, Li Shimin didn't take any action, but stayed on the sidelines, even Li Ji couldn't defend Jiuquan County.
