"I have a starting point!"

The voice was loud and full of energy.

It sounded like the voice of a military general!

Li Chengdao's unrestrained smile froze directly on his face.

What are you going to do every day!

If you have something to do, can't you raise your hand earlier!

I have to leave every time I didn’t speak until I asked you, so you meant it!

But when he saw that the person speaking was the military god Li Jing,

Li Chengdao’s expression suddenly became normal!

After all, with Li Jing’s character, if it wasn’t a big deal, he would say a lot. He didn't want to say anything.

Li Chengdao raised his hand,"What's the matter with Li Aiqing?""

Li Jing first bowed to Li Chengdao and said:

"Your Highness the County Prince!"

"Such a big change has happened in our Tang Dynasty today, and the news will surely spread to the surrounding countries soon."

"At that time, there may be some scoundrels trying to offend Tianwei."

"Especially the Turks in the north, they have always been eyeing the Tang Dynasty"

"Every autumn and winter, they would go south to clear grass in the valley and massacre the people at the border."

"If they find out this time that civil strife has broken out in our Datang, they might take the opportunity to cause trouble!"

"Please, Your Highness, make plans in advance!"

Li Jing's words silenced the entire court.

They all knew that Li Jing's words were still too tactful.

The impact of King Qin's rebellion was really bad. Not only the prince, King Qin and King Qi died. More than ten of their subordinates died.

Generals and thousands of elite soldiers were also lost.

These were the main force leading the war, and some of them were generals who had guarded the north before.

Now that so many people died at once, there were not many generals available in the court..Although there are still powerful generals such as Li Jing, Li Shiji, Su Dingfang, etc., there are more than three countries surrounding the Tang Dynasty!

Just like the dominoes.

As long as the Turks successfully move south, other countries will also be eager to try.

In the future, no one can handle it. Well, there may be the danger of destroying the country.

Li Chengdao has already considered this issue.

He looked at Li Jing and his tone was extremely serious

"Li Aiqing, except for the Turks, how many troops do other countries need to deter them? Li

Jing lowered his head and made calculations,"Xiang Baiman, the southwest party, is weak and has many business contacts with the Tang Dynasty. The local state capital can intimidate him one or two.""

"Tuyuhun in the west is very ambitious and there are many conflicts on the border. The local army has 200,000 troops, which can barely suppress it."

"Goguryeo in the Northeast has repeatedly invaded the border, but they have fewer troops. They only need an additional 50,000 troops to stabilize the border."

"Only the Eastern Turks and Xue Yantuo in the north need heavy troops and cannot be defended!"

"After several years of battle losses, Shuofang's troops have been reduced to less than 100,000, and Yunzhou's defense has become even weaker."

"If the Turks cross the border with all their strength, they will have no way to resist"

"When the army moves all the way south, there will no longer be a barrier north of Chang'an!"

Everyone's face turned ugly when they heard this. I didn't expect that the matter has become so serious.

If the Turks move, Tuyuhun from the west will definitely come.

When the border is in chaos, the southwest will no longer be stable. It can be moved by a single move. All over the body!

Li Chengdao nodded, and there were almost no errors or omissions in Li Jing’s analysis.

After all, in history, not long after Li Shimin launched the Xuanwumen Incident, the Eastern Turks launched a fierce attack on the Tang Dynasty.

Jieli Khan of the Eastern Turks even led the The soldiers arrived at the Wei River, looking across Chang'an.

Finally, Li Shimin was forced to sign the Wei River Covenant, which he was ashamed of his whole life.

But Li Chengdao was a man with his own cheats, and the Wei River Covenant would never appear!

"Li Aiqing, does our Tang Dynasty still have soldiers and horses that can be mobilized?

Li Jing nodded:"The Sixteenth Guards of Nanya and the Sixth Army of Beiya, totaling 200,000 people, can go north to stop the enemy.""

"If His Highness's Snow Dragon rides northward, that's fine. If it stays in Chang'an, that's fine."

"The 20,000 Xuanjia guards in the Gyeonggi camp can also be used!"

"It’s just that the autumn harvest has not yet arrived, and the supply of food and grass is insufficient. I am afraid that it will be difficult to support a protracted war!"

Li Chengdao's eyes were completely opened this time!

No wonder Li Jing is called the God of War. He can analyze the general trend of the world and the soldiers and horses of the country at any time!

Such a person goes to the battlefield to fight, and I am afraid there is nothing else except the supply of food and grass. Things can restrain him!

Li Chengdao thought for a while, and there were some things that he couldn't say in front of everyone.

If the news leaked out, he would be in vain.

Li Chengdao looked at the other ministers,"Besides Li Aiqing, others have things to report. ? Let’s talk about it together!"

After waiting for a long time, no one finally raised their hands this time.

Li Chengdao waved his hand,"Well, except for the cabinet, everyone should withdraw from the court!"

The ministers bowed and retreated,"Please leave!""

After a while, only the six people who discussed the cabinet and Li Chengdao were left in the hall.

Li Chengdao could now say with confidence

"Today is the fourth day of June. Even if the Eastern Turks learn the news and lead their army south to the Weishui River, it will be at least August or September."

"Since the food and grass cannot supply a big war, then we might as well not fight it yet!"

"Wei Aiqing, please prepare a secret letter later and send it to Yunzhou and Shuofang garrison, telling them that they only need to interfere, and there is no need to face the enemy head-on!"

"Then move the people along the way and make way for Jieli Khan!"

"I want to meet him for a while at the edge of the Wei River!".........
