Datang: The prince of salted fish was overheard by Li Er

Seeing Li You shaking his head, Li Shimin was greatly surprised: "Why, doesn't Youer want to save your brother?"

Hearing this, Li You shook his head even more.

"Father, that's not what I mean. I have just said that as long as I can save Brother Huang, I will definitely not refuse."

"It's just, it's just that the Hexi Army is no longer something I can mobilize."

Li Shimin was even more surprised by Li You's words: "What's going on, isn't this the Hexi Army that you built yourself? How could it be that you can't mobilize it?"

Li You smiled wryly and said, "Father, have you forgotten that you sealed Hexi to Zao'er?"

The jujube in Li You's mouth is his younger brother Li Chuang. Li Chuang was born in the second year of Zhenguan and is now 15 years old. He was considered an adult at this age in the Tang Dynasty.

Not long ago, when Li Shimin was discussing giving Li Chuang a fief, Li You suggested that he had lived in Qizhou for a long time now, and the land of Hexi was too far away from him, so he asked Li Shimin to hand over Hexi to Li Chuang.

Li Shimin knew that they were brothers, so he naturally agreed.

Obtaining Hexi made Li Chuang very happy. Compared with the rich and prosperous fiefdom, what he valued most was the Hexi Army with excellent and advanced equipment from the Tang Dynasty.

Different from Li You, Li Chuang has been a militant since he was a child, and his martial arts has been taught by Zhou Huai'an, and he even learned the unpredictable art of war from Su Dingfang.

After getting the Hexi Army, Li Chuang immediately took his troops to Hexi as soon as he was happy.

Therefore, at this moment Li Youcai said that the Hexi Army was no longer under his control.

Hearing that the army was in Li Chuang's hands, Li Shimin couldn't help but hesitated again.

Li Shimin also loves Li Chuang very much, especially Li Chuang's aggressiveness often makes Li Shimin see the shadow of himself when he was young.

Originally, if it wasn't for Li Ke's accident, Li Shimin would have been very willing to let Li Chuang go out to practice. After all, Li Shimin himself had already joined the battlefield with Emperor Sui Yang at this age.

After some thinking, Li Shimin felt that he should ask Li You for his opinion.

"You'er, do you think it's okay for me to ask Zao'er to rescue Ke'er?"

"Zao'er is young after all..."

Li Shimin's unfinished sentence was to hope that Li You could go there in person.

Li You naturally knew what Li Shimin meant, and he immediately replied: "Of course, father Zao'er, don't underestimate Zao'er, his master Su Dingfang often told me that Zao'er has already obtained the essence of his military use."

"In terms of force, even Xue Rengui admires him a lot."

Li Shimin naturally knew what Li You said, but he still felt a little uneasy: "But after all, Zao'er was on the battlefield for the first time, and Songtsan Gampo is full of tricks..."

"Your thinks we should send an experienced veteran with him?"

"Now, Zhang Liang and Li Daliang are both in Chang'an, who do you think is more suitable?"

Li You thought for a while, and finally shook his head and said: "Father, it takes a lot of speed to rescue the emperor. Although Zhang Liang and Li Daliang and others have rich experience, they are old after all. I'm afraid they haven't arrived at the emperor yet." The place where my brother is is conveniently fell ill."

"These are all veterans who have made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty, so they must not be harmed because of this."

"Actually, father, there is no need to worry so much. The former Hexi Army Commander Wang Xuance is also an experienced general, and he is familiar with the terrain of Tubo, so there is no need to transfer people from Chang'an."

When Li You said this, Li Shimin also remembered that among Li You's generals, there was such a number one figure as Wang Xuance.

Compared to Su Dingfang and Xue Rengui who were already the commanders-in-chief of one party, Wang Xuance seemed much more ordinary in recent years.

After Li You went to Qizhou, he handed over the Hexi Guard to Wang Xuance's management, and Wang Xuance also dutifully developed the Hexi Guard into the Hexi Army, and maintained a first-class combat effectiveness.

At the same time, Wang Xuance also cooperated with Hexi Iron and Steel Works to test a large number of new equipment.

It can be said that the new generation of equipment in Datang basically has the participation of Wang Xuance and the Hexi Army led by him.

Moreover, Li You also gave Wang Xuance a special task, that is to cooperate with Jin Yiwei to search for traces of those monks in Tubo and the former Tuyuhun territory.

It is also for this reason that Wang Xuance is very familiar with the terrain of Tuyuhun and Tubo from Tianzhu.

After the two discussed, Li Shimin issued a military order to Li Chuang and the Hexi Army.

On the day when the Hexi Army rushed to the battlefield, Li Chengqian suddenly approached Li You.

"Why did the prince come to Shence Mansion today?"

"What's the matter, it's okay, can't I, as an older brother, come to see my nephew?"

"Since you went to Qizhou, we brothers have seen too little."

For Li You, Li Chengqian has always been grateful in his heart.

If Li You hadn't healed his leg back then, maybe everything would be different today.

Although Li You didn't understand the purpose of Li Chengqian's trip, he also understood that it was definitely not as simple as looking after the children.

But no matter what it is, Li Chengqian is willing to come to him, which means it must not be a bad thing.

Sure enough, after seeing the children, Li Chengqian got to the point.

"Imperial brother, you have to believe me, Hou Junji's behavior like this is absolutely not my intention!"

"I've written to him and told him to come to the rescue at full speed!"

After learning that Li Ke was under siege, Li Chengqian immediately ordered Hou Junji to provide reinforcements with all his strength, and he never expected that Hou Junji's order to them was also a bit obedient.

However, regarding the situation in Tubo, they were thousands of miles away and had no way of grasping the situation first-hand, so even Li Chengqian did not dare to be too harsh on Hou Junji.

The reason why Li Chengqian came to Li You to talk about it was because in Chang'an City, he really couldn't find anyone to talk about it.

When he recruited Hou Junji back then, to a large extent, he actually listened to the words of his uncle, grandson Wuji, and cultivated himself as a spokesperson in the army.

And this kind of benign competition was also carried out with Li Shimin's acquiescence. Li Chengqian never thought that Hou Junji would kill Li Ke at this time, and it was at a time when he could not be too harsh on him.

Li Chengqian felt that in the past few days, everyone looked at him wrongly.

Under all kinds of distress, Li Chengqian approached Li You, hoping that this younger brother who had helped him before could trust him.

With Li You's professionalism in the past, he naturally understood Li Chengqian's mood immediately.

Li You comforted: "His Royal Highness, I believe that you did not instigate this matter. We are all brothers connected by blood, how could we do such a thing."

To be honest, Li You was a little guilty when he said this.

Looking at the several generations of emperors in the early Tang Dynasty, from Tang Taizong Li Shimin to Tang Minghuang Li Longji, which one did not experience a fierce royal family struggle before ascending the throne!
However, this is the most gratifying thing for Li You now. At least this time, the relationship between Li Chengqian and Li Tai is completely good. Judging from the current situation, Li Chengqian's rebellion will basically not happen.

And the dispute between Li Ke and Li Chengqian may come to a perfect end after this Tubo battle.
