Datang: Eight-year-old general

Chapter 238 How to Choose

Hold tight to the decree.

Li Yi did not expect that the Turks really invaded Beiting as he had worried before.

But the root cause is beauty and disaster.

This was unexpected by Li Yi.

Fortunately, he made the deployment at that time, otherwise, with Li Chengzhong seriously injured, it would be difficult to resist the 30 Turkic cavalry who came in menacingly without the chief general who commanded the Beiting soldiers before the war.

At this time, although the East Island army occupying Mingzhou withdrew from Mingzhou, they still occupied Wengzhou in the Datang Island Group.

If they don't beat them out of Datang or destroy them for a day, Li Yi will feel like a stick in his throat.

For a while, Li Yi fell into a difficult choice.

He immediately sent troops to Beiting to fight against the Xiongnu.

Still stay in Mingzhou, wipe out the Dongdao people completely before returning to Beiting.

If he stayed in Mingzhou, Li Yi was afraid that the Turks would have a backhand. Beiting would not be able to withstand the Turkic cavalry, and his uncle Li Chengzhong would die in Beiting.

He has lost his father, Li Chengye. If he loses Li Chengzhong, then Li Yi will only have Li Yuniang as a relative, and he will be more and more lonely.

Not only that, if something happened to Li Chengzhong, Li Yuniang would also be hit.

But when they went to Beiting to fight against the Turks, the rogues from all over Mingzhou were still unsolved, and the Dongdao people who occupied Wengzhou were staring at them again.

If they are allowed to unite with various overseas ministries, or island pirates, Mingzhou will once again fall into crisis.

Li Yi, who didn't dare to think too much, raised his head, looked at the worried Li Yuniang and said, "Don't worry, sister, uncle is fine, Zhang Liao has arrived in Beiting."

Yes.

Li Yi lied, he didn't tell Li Yuniang the truth.

The purpose is to prevent Li Yuniang from being too emotional.

Women are more emotional than men after all.

"That's good, as long as father is fine." After hearing Li Yi's words, Li Yuniang breathed a sigh of relief.It's just that there is still a touch of worry in the eyes.

Seeing this, Li Yi could only sigh secretly.

After adjusting his emotions, he shouted with cold eyes, "Come here, call back Zhao Yun, Zhang Jaw, and Ma Chao, the three generals, just say that there is a sudden change in the matter!"

"Order!"

The messenger didn't dare to be negligent, so he immediately got on his horse and went to deliver the order.

And Li Yi watched the herald leave, and shouted again, "Come here, go and get the three of Qing Wu back."

Speaking of Qingwu, Li Yi had a headache.

Ever since he made a promise in his Tang Palace, he has always stuck to himself like a brown candy, which made Li Yi feel a little embarrassed.

On the way to Wanghai Town, they used an excuse to let them lead a team of tiger and leopard knights to destroy a ronin not far from them.

Let Li Yi spend a day in comfort.

"Order!"

Another messenger got on his horse and galloped out of Wanghai Town. He knew that Qing Wu and the others were killing the rogues, so he just needed to go to that place.

Finally, Li Yi looked at the twelve guards standing on one side, and asked, "What's your name?"

"Back to the general, humble Qin Hai." The twelve guards immediately took a step forward, with respectful expressions.

Li Yi nodded and said, "Well, Qin Hai, go down to eat some food and recuperate your strength. After the general makes a decision, I will immediately summon you and ask you to bring back the general's letter to His Majesty."

"Understood, thank you General." Qin Hai traveled day and night, exhausted physically and mentally from anxiety, and if he didn't rest, he would probably fall to the ground.

Then, he followed the Bai Pao army soldiers and left behind.

"Let's go too, the tent should be set up." Li Yi took a step and asked Dian Wei behind him.

After all, Dian Wei at this time is half a logistics quartermaster.

Dian Wei replied, "Don't worry, General, the tents have already been set up. The maps of Beiting and Anxi were also wounded by Huo Leijun. I'll go get them right away."

Knowing the urgency of the situation, Dian Wei quickly turned around and left, regardless of etiquette.

Soon.

Li Yi came to the camp, and the three generals Zhao Yun also arrived one after another.

Seeing all the generals gathered, Li Yi didn't hesitate, motioned them all to sit down, and then said with emotion, "Ma Chao, Zhang Jaw, it seems that before I left, I brought you two generals out of Chang'an, which foreshadowed your importance. sex."

Not bad.

When Li Yi waved his troops straight to Mingzhou, Li Yuniang and Yan Ruchu wanted to follow, and Li Yi also called Ma Chao and Zhang Jai back for safety.

He also ordered Yan Yi to arrange for Yan Er and others to take over the leadership positions of the four.

Otherwise, Li Yi really couldn't get away when the Turks raided Beiting.

At this point he already had an idea.

Hearing that the general's tone was not right, Zhao Yun asked with twinkling eyes, "General, what happened?"

Li Yi stared at Zhao Yundao, "The 30 Turkic cavalry raided Beiting. Your Majesty wants to transfer me to Beiting to fight the Turks."

"This……"

Hearing this, the three generals Zhao Yun were startled, among them Ma Chao asked in retrospect, "Does the general want to hand over Mingzhou to me?"

"good."

Li Yi shifted his gaze to Ma Chao, and said, "Now the people of Dongdao are intimidated by Huoleizi and are retreating to the Wengzhou Islands, and our warship is damaged. It will take a long time to mobilize."

"And our soldiers are all cavalry, and there are very few people who are good at water, so I decided to recruit a total of [-] soldiers from the surrounding states to form the Datang Navy. You will find people who are good at water and teach them."

"This is one, and the other is to proceed as planned. Ma Chao, you continue to clean up the rogues from the East Island all over Mingzhou, and Zhao Yun continues to find craftsmen to build ships."

As he said that, Li Yi took out a blueprint from Jiawei, handed it to Zhao Yun and said, "This blueprint is a picture of a warship I drew. Make a model and try to build one."

Zhao Yun was a little dazed. He took the drawing and saw a warship on it. There were rows of holes drawn on the hull. On the whole, it looked like a ferocious giant beast.

It completely overturned Zhao Yun's perception of warships, and he asked in horror, "General, is this a warship? This is too powerful..."

"Why isn't it a warship?"

Li Yi asked back, and then said, "I just thought about this picture three-dimensionally in my mind, and the specific details need to be studied, modified and debugged by shipbuilders."

"I understand the general." Zhao Yun is sure that as long as this kind of beast-like warship is built and the power of the divine weapon described by the general is added, they will be invincible at sea.

Li Yi saw that Zhao Yun was carefully putting the blueprints into his stomach, so he straightened his back and shouted, "Zhao Yun, Ma Chao listened to the order. I ordered Zhao Yun to be the General of Zhengdong, to command everything in Mingzhou, and not to be arbitrary. I ordered Ma Chao to be subdued." Lieutenant General Wa, follow Zhao Yun's order!"

"Don't forget to stop the East Island people from overseas and clean up the rogues in Mingzhou. Don't take it lightly. If you violate the order and cause immeasurable losses, you will be executed!"

"The last general takes orders, and I will obey the orders of the great general!" Zhao Yun and Ma Chao knelt down on the ground together.
