Emperor did not seem to be at ease. He knew that Zhang Zhen's personal martial arts was only second to master, but his ability to unify troops had not been tested. In recent years, the combat effectiveness of the right Shence army has not been improved, and it can be seen that its ability to unify troops is average.

However, every war of the imperial court is crucial and cannot be defeated! Especially in this season. He couldn't help thinking of Donggong's thin body and shook his head.

"I sent Li Chengye to join the army and lead the army as a recorder!"

Recording and joining the army is the staff in the army, and it goes without saying that this is also a conspiracy.

Zhang Zhenmeng raised his head, "without Li Chengye, slaves are sure!"

The emperor said with gloomy eyes, "I can't afford to lose!"

"Slave, take orders!"

Zhang Zhen retracted his sight and looked at the ground again. Even if he knew that the emperor who served him since childhood had no martial arts and was very average, he could crush him with one hand.

But somehow, he was afraid of him from the bottom of his heart. This fear is like an animal at the lower level of the food chain, born to succumb to the beast at the upper level.

The emperor's means, he has seen too much over the years. The more he knows, the more he feels that he is unfathomable, like an abyss like a prison, and can only surrender! In fact, both the prime minister in the civil service and Li Chengye in the military general were fooled by him. He could only respond passively and dared not resist.

When Li Chengye, a martial artist, once led the army outside, he acted more like a local Emperor than they did when facing the Jiedu envoy of the border town. He said he would fight and kill. He was not polite. Such a strong martial man's mind, discipline and law are all jokes. Everything depends on strength.

But in front of the emperor, he didn't dare to have the slightest stab. He abandoned his military post and developed into a civilian. He was more afraid than anyone.

This is the reason why today's emperors still maintain a high authority even if they are about to die.

But it was precisely because the awesome emperor Shou yuan was about to run out that Zhang Zhencai racked his brains to close the military power of the Shence army. After all, once the emperor and his courtiers ascend the throne, even if today's emperor has had all kinds of entrustment, can it be worth several close courtiers who accompany him all day?

As a eunuch, he knew what kind of choice the emperor would make if he accompanied him from childhood to adulthood. Therefore, he must master military power. Only military power can ensure his current power and position, and only military power can make him not controlled by others in the new emperor and protect himself well!

…………

In the 22nd year of the Tang Dynasty, late spring and early summer.

The emperor ordered Zhang Zhen to recruit envoys for Henan Dao and led more than 40000 troops of Zuo Shence army to Henan Dao to counter the rebellion.

Many veteran generals traveled with the army and were made by Zhang Zhenjie. Li Chengye joined the army for recording and led the army.

The night before the expedition, Li Chengye called Wei Ran and Li Guangsi into the study.

Li Chengye looked at his two sons. One was tall and strong. At first glance, he knew that he would be a strong general in the world. The other was tall and handsome, and he was vigorous in elegance.

Both of them will go out with their father this time, and all their armor and equipment have been packed up.

Li Guangsi has been learning the art of war with his father these years. Although he seems to have no ambition, he has good talent and learns very well.

This year is exactly 16 years old. Although he is not up to the crown, he has been regarded as the backbone of his family. Moreover, under the strict instruction of Taoist Zi XuanZhen, martial arts have made rapid progress over the years.

The pure Yang limitless skill of the pure Yang sect is quite popular. The internal skill realm has already penetrated the twelve meridians and broken two strange meridians. Compared with Feng Xinyuan's proud disciple Mu Linsen, he is much better. Even among his peers in Chunyang palace, his martial arts are among the best.

Li Chengye intended to train his own son so that he would not be longer than a woman's hand and lose his blood, so he forced him to take him to battle.

"Do you know why your majesty ordered you to join the army and lead the army as your father and recorder?"

Li Guangsi first said, "no one in the world can match his father's war achievements. This is because he is afraid that his father's great achievements will shake the Lord. There is no reward."

Wei Ran added in his heart, because the emperor Shouyuan is coming, he doesn't want to leave a difficult general who has made great achievements and is gaining more and more authority.

Of course, neither Li Chengye nor Li Guangsi knew the reason.

Li Chengye nodded and said, "this is indeed one of the reasons. More importantly, your majesty can't afford to lose the war."

Li Guangsi didn't understand, but Wei Ran knew very well that if the war was lost, the imperial court's authority would not exist and could not suppress the economy of the border town. Coupled with the succession of the young emperor, it is unknown how many years Li Tang can sit in the world.

Without much explanation, Li Chengye only said: "if thieves attack bianzhou, if they go down to bianzhou City, the Grand Canal will be cut off. At that time, Jiangnan property could not enter Guanzhong. In addition, the national treasury of the imperial court had become more and more tense in recent years, and the country was in danger of overturning. So we must win this war! You can't make great contributions as a father, but you are different!

As a father, although the Marquis of this county is glorious, it cannot be inherited and replaced. If you want to expand the family lintel of the Li family, you must make military achievements in order to honor the family and protect the family lintel from falling. Dingguo, although you are an adopted son, but you and my father and son are of one mind, so our family will not speak foreign languages. You are gifted and better than Guangsi in all aspects. As a father, I hope you can achieve no less than me in the army and become the real God of war of the Tang Dynasty! This war is your first! Do not hesitate because of the danger of war. "

Both Wei Ran and Li Guangsi bowed and spoke in unison.

Li Guangsi: "remember my father's teachings, and I will try my best to keep the lintel of the Li family!"

Wei Ran: "if you remember your father's teachings, you will certainly expand the door lintel of the Li family and leave your name in history!"

They answered in unison, but their meanings and aspirations were completely different.

Li Guangsi looked at Wei Ran in amazement, but his heart was more dissatisfied.

What Wei was thinking about was what ah Li said to himself before he left. There is a huge soul grabbing node in Heluo. If you go east to counter the rebellion, maybe you can find ah Li there and look at the soul grabbing node.

If you can make use of it, with the help of a large number of heaven and earth auras, you may try to break the first layer of sea barrier. At that time, there will be a great progress in martial arts. He is looking forward to that moment.

On the second day of the expedition, at Yin time, Wei Ran was wearing armor and helmets at home. His father and his second brother were almost ready. The soldiers accompanying the expedition had gathered more than 300 people outside the city.

When the family came to the door, all the housewives and others came to see them off. They had to say goodbye.

After tying the cloak to Li Chengye, Cheng tied another scarlet cloak to Wei Ran, and then looked at the adopted son squatting on the ground with red eyes.

He has grown so fast over the years that this mother can only look up, so Wei Ran can only squat down and listen to the teaching.

After saying goodbye, Wei Ran took the Dawan horse bought from the western regions last year and set out. As a result, Li Jianxing shouted that he would follow a fellow army, but he was only 14 years old after all.

Although over the years, he has mixed the door method and the sect method, which has made him grow very fast and have the physique of an adult, Li Chengye has his own consideration and is not allowed to follow him on the expedition, so as not to have an accident with Li Guangsi and break the incense fire of the Li family.

Li huaimeng is much more honest than his compatriot brother. He only plays a farewell song quietly in the hospital to place his blessings on his father and brother.

After the father and son left the city, they gathered 300 family soldiers and generals, and rode forward to the left Shence military camp.
