Chapter 696: Unable to convince

That night, Yuchi Baolin, Niu Jianhu and many other brothers went to the Firearms Camp to meet their father.

Niu Jinda, Yu Chigong and others all praised their sons for their potential and told them to do a good job.

There are also many people who feel sour in their hearts.

Cheng Yaojin, Li Ji, Li Xiaogong and other generals who had no sons in the firearms camp were drinking together.

Drinking was not allowed originally, but now that the war with the Turks has been settled, Li Er allowed them to have a few drinks.

After Li Xiaogong drank a glass of wine, he sighed and said, "I regret it. Why didn't I let my brat go to the firearms camp? Otherwise, I would be proud of myself today."

"Who says it's not the case? I think I laughed at the Firearms Battalion and Xuanjia Military Academy when they were beaten to pieces during the drill, but I never thought that all this was done on purpose.

The clown turns out to be ourselves.

Deliberately hiding his strength, such a destructive method can only be done by that brat Li Feng." Li Ji said angrily.

Cheng Yaojin nodded and said: "Nine times out of ten it was Li Feng's idea. It's very likely that His Majesty already knew about it, otherwise how could he send the firearms battalion to the border town."

"Huh, let's forget about the firearms camp. There is one thing that you, the old devil, still owe us an explanation for." Li Ji said.

Cheng Yaojin secretly screamed that something was wrong. He started to back away, but he asked with a confused look on his face: "What did you say? Why can't I understand?"

"Humph, you don't have to pretend, you don't know what we are talking about?" Li Ji said.

Li Xiaogong also said: "Cheng Yaojin, you are really nothing, and you are still pretending to be confused with us even now."

"Li Xiaogong, you are nothing. What do you mean by pretending to be confused while pretending to understand? You guys are all hesitant in speaking. If you have the ability to speak clearly," Cheng Yaojin was also angry.

If you dare to scold him for not being a thing, they are not a thing.

Li Xiaogong was no longer convinced and said in a deep voice: "The special forces currently led by your son Cheng Chumo are more powerful than the firearms battalion.

At this point, your old Cheng family ancestors should be smoking."

Yuchi Gong stood up and said: "Cheng Yaojin

But there is one thing you did that was very unreasonable. I have such a good relationship with you, and your family Chu Mo married and trained special forces soldiers, but you hid it so deeply. Even if you didn't tell them, you should tell me."

Cheng Yaojin said loudly: "Ask Li Feng about this. Chu Mo just told me that I want a hundred people to train troops. As for what kind of training, Li Feng won't let me say.

It turns out you are jealous of me, huh, I didn’t tell you on purpose, so that’s it, hahaha... I’m so jealous of you.”

Immediately afterwards, Cheng Yaojin left arrogantly, leaving only a group of angry generals.

On the other side, Queen Xiao took Princess Yicheng to her room.

"Xiao Meiniang, what do you mean? You want to give up the Sui Dynasty." Princess Yicheng was reluctantly pulled into the room and asked Queen Xiao loudly.

Empress Xiao sighed and said: "Sister-in-law, how come you still haven't seen the situation clearly until now.

The Great Sui Dynasty has died, and he has been replaced by Li Tang. Sister, even if you want to use Turks to deal with Li Tang, you must have the ability to fight against Li Tang."

"Why are the Turks incompetent? Four years ago, the Turks had already reached the gate of Chang'an. If that bastard Jie Li hadn't made the decision without authorization and signed an alliance contract with Li Er, otherwise, Li Tang would have been finished." Princess Yicheng retorted.

road.

Empress Xiao then retorted: "Sister-in-law, don't deceive yourself. Even if Jieli occupied Chang'an four years ago, as long as Li Shimin and others move the capital, everything can be solved.

Li Shimin is a very tolerant person. As long as he is given a chance, he will come back with revenge. At that time, the Turks will not get so many benefits and may be beaten back by the Tang army."

"No, you are wrong. Four years ago, as long as Jie Li was not good at making decisions, the country of Li Tang was already my Sui Dynasty."

"Okay, even if I'm wrong, what about now? The Tang army's weapons are far better than you think. Just a hot air balloon can defeat you and flee with a hundred thousand Turkic army."

"As long as you give me time to build a giant crossbow, the hot air balloons in the sky will no longer pose a threat." Princess Yicheng said very confidently.

"Hey, sister-in-law, why don't you understand yet?"

"It's because you don't understand that it's because of Jieli's arrogance and your inaction that the failure resulted.

Now we still have a chance, as long as we can escape from Tuli, and then use Tuli's army to attack Youzhou, while the main force of the Tang army is still forming, we..."

"enough."

Before Princess Yicheng finished speaking, Queen Xiao interrupted her.

"Enough, sister-in-law, it's really enough. Even if we can use force to recapture the Sui Dynasty, how long can the Sui Dynasty last in the Central Plains after losing the support of the people?

Also, you need to recognize the facts now. The people in Litang are getting better and better, and there is no way you can deny this."

Princess Yicheng sneered and said, "What do you think those untouchables are doing? Just kill anyone who disobeys."

"In this case, another 18th wave of rebel kings appear. We can kill one wave. How can we kill the second wave and the third wave?"

"Whoever says it's not possible, we will kill them to make them afraid and kill them so that they dare not rebel again."

"Is it possible? According to what you said, will there still be common people in the Sui Dynasty? Government pressure will lead to people's rebellion. Do you know that?

Just like the Turks, it was not you who encouraged Jieli to levy taxes indiscriminately, which made the Turkic people miserable and made other tribes complain.

Will Xue Yantuo establish his own country? Will Tuli and Jieli be at odds? Will Turks and generals defect to Li Tang?" Queen Xiao asked several questions in succession.

Princess Yicheng sneered: "I will be the master and they will be the servants. I can do whatever I want."

"Hey, it's because of your thoughts that you will lose." Empress Xiao sighed again, her tone softening, "Sister-in-law, please come back to the Central Plains with me to enjoy your old age in peace."

"Impossible, I won't go back." Princess Yicheng held Queen Xiao in her arms and said, "Meiniang, help me, help me escape. I want to find Tuli. We still have a chance."

Empress Xiao shook her head and said: "I can't help you. I can't protect myself now. Besides, there are people watching me everywhere. Is there any way I can help you escape?"

"I'm holding you hostage? Li Shimin won't watch you being killed."

"It's useless. They have a weapon called a musket, which can kill you instantly. They killed you before you could even attack me."

"Damn it, is there nothing we can do? No, I won't go back even if I die. My dear, I can only feel sorry for you."

As soon as Princess Yicheng finished speaking, she took out a dagger and put it on Queen Xiao's neck.
