Hearing what Li Chengqian said, Li Shimin was also stunned.
He really didn't expect that Li Chengqian would be so happy this time and not confront him.
He even offered to let the navy accompany the army on the expedition to protect the student soldiers of the Wuhan Academy.
And how did he know that sending the navy to the expedition had already been planned by Li Chengqian. .??.
But before he could speak, Li Shimin said it himself.
After Li Shimin thought for a moment, he said: "In that case, I will comply with your wishes. I will issue an order for the navy to prepare for the expedition."
"Father is wise..."
Li Chengqian immediately shouted.
…
Following Li Shimin's decree.
The war machine of the Tang Dynasty is operating again after a year.
However, this war seemed so understated.
Even before the common people noticed it, Datang's 50,000 navy troops and 3,000 student soldiers had already embarked on the journey.
And on the day of the expedition.
Li Chengqian also kept his promise and came to the dock in person to see Li Chongyi and others off.
Looking at all the young faces in front of him, Li Chengqian felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
Once upon a time, when he led his team on an expedition, he always had a few veterans around him.
Even last year when he went to Henan Province to defend against the Japanese, he was accompanied by Li Ji.
But this time, none of the veteran generals in the army moved, and all those who went to Silla were newcomers.
To a certain extent, this may also mean that Datang has opened a new chapter.
The era of young people has arrived...
Thinking of this, Li Chengqian also patted Li Chongyi's shoulder heavily.
"Now you represent more than just you."
"And our entire young generation in Datang."
Li Chengqian said slowly: "Whether it's meritorious or embarrassing, it all depends on you."
"Do not worry."
" I will never let you down, let alone Datang."
Li Chongyi said it very confidently, and he also has the capital to be confident.
After all, the water fighting gene is a family inheritance.
At the same time, he also saw the weapons that Li Chengqian brought him from the ordnance camp.
Whether it's the new Zhenguan cannon or the new musket, they are enough to make him fearless of anyone and any war.
He even wanted to say that he would win this battle 100%.
And Li Chengqian could naturally see what he meant.
At that moment, Li Chengqian also reminded: "I know your boy's abilities, and I also know that neither Fuyu Yici nor Fuyu Fuxin is your opponent."
"But you guys must never underestimate the enemy, and don't make the same mistake as you did in the naval battle with the Japanese army."
"After all, when a person is in desperate situation, he can do anything."
That time, Li Chongyi forced the Japanese army into a desperate situation.
The Japanese army also launched a desperate battle against the Tang Navy.
Li Chongyi was not prepared at all and was caught off guard by the Japanese army, resulting in heavy casualties among the soldiers under his tent.
When he heard Li Chengqian's words, Li Chongyi also thought of the past.
The scenes of the fireships and the ships around him being rammed and sunk by the enemy one after another suddenly appeared before his eyes.
"That kind of thing will only happen to me once in my life."
Li Chongyi raised his head and said confidently: "If there is a second time, I will give you the head on my neck."
As the saying goes, failure is not terrible, what is terrible is not knowing the shame and then being brave.
Li Chongyi’s good face was inherited from the old Li family.
Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for him to let the same failure happen to him twice.
And Li Chengqian also believed in him, so he came again
Du patted him on the shoulder and said, "Okay, let's lead the army out."
"When you return in triumph, I will welcome you hundreds of miles away!"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
"Your words are enough." ??
Li Chongyi threw his head back and laughed loudly, then put the helmet on his head.
Immediately afterwards, he turned around and stepped onto the wooden plank bridge and onto the command ship.
Following his order, more than a hundred warships also set off at the same time, sailing down the river and heading straight to the east.
Li Chengqian also stood at the dock for a long time, and he did not turn around until the warship navy completely disappeared from sight.
At this time, Gao Zhixing, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but said: "Okay, stop looking."
"Datang cannot rely on one or two people, let alone yourself."
Gao Zhixing also looked at the direction in which the ship was leaving and said, "Now, it's time for them to stand out."
"Um."
Li Chengqian nodded, then smiled and said: "I never said that Datang relied on me alone."
"I am also a student, and I am still learning."
"I'm just a little worried this time. This is the first time Chongyi is leading the army alone, so I'm afraid there will be some shortcomings."
After saying this, Li Chengqian slowly turned around, glanced at Gao Zhixing and said, "Damn it, if you were to go, why would I be so worried?"
Not to mention that Gao Zhixing's ability far surpassed that of Li Chongyi.
But at least Gao Zhixing has the experience of leading alone.
But since his debut, Li Chongyi has never served as the commander-in-chief of a war.
This is also what worries Li Chengqian the most.
He was afraid that Li Chongyi could not handle certain aspects well, which would lead to him losing everything.
Naturally, Gao Zhixing knew his worries, so he spoke to reassure him.
But seeing that this guy actually brought the topic back to the fact that he was not on the expedition, Gao Zhixing was a little unhappy. He said bluntly: "My mother-in-law wants to go too, so you better let me go."
"What's going on? Otherwise, why don't you go talk to your sister and ask me to go out with the army?"
He has now caught Li Chengqian's pulse.
Li Chengqian was also a little helpless about this.
Once upon a time, he used Li Tingxue to threaten Li Chongyi and Gao Zhixing.
But now, luckily, this guy is back with a threat.
Li Chengqian also shook his head and chuckled: "Okay, I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you."
"If I let you go, my sister will probably beat me to death."
Li Chengqian took a deep breath, then changed the topic and said, "I have nothing to do in the East Palace today. I want to invite you to drink. Can you go?"
Seeing that Li Chengqian had changed the topic, Gao Zhixing naturally wouldn't hold on to it.
What's more, Li Chengqian, a guy who always behaves like an iron rooster, wants to treat others today?
Gao Zhixing responded almost on the spot: "You're treating me to a treat, why should I not go?"
Next, the two guys didn't hesitate and turned around and got on the carriage.
And what they don't know is.
At this moment, there are three people at the top of Chang'an City watching all this silently.
And these three people are naturally none other than the three famous gangsters in the early Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin, Cheng Yaojin, and Changsun Wuji.
When looking at the scene of Li Chengqian sending the soldiers off, Li Shimin couldn't help but sigh: "Time flies so fast."
"There was a time when he was still following us around."
"But in the blink of an eye, this guy has started sending soldiers off to fight..."
In the past, this kind of thing was done by Li Shimin.
But this time, Li Shimin handed it over to Li Chengqian.
The meaning of power transfer cannot be more obvious.
Changsun Wuji was also stunned and said: "Yes, in the blink of an eye, our younger generation in the Tang Dynasty has begun to stand out..."
