"Don't you know how many people died at the hands of rogue bandits because of their negligence?"
Li Shimin asked with a dark face.
"But……"
"They did not neglect their duties."
Li Chengqian said in a calm voice: "In fact, they have tried their best to protect the people."
"Ah……"
Li Shimin made a sound that was either a snort or a sneer.
And seeing him like this.
Li Chengqian also knew that the old man was very angry.
Sighing softly, Li Chengqian faced Li Shimin, slowly bent his knees and knelt on the ground.
"My son knows that my father is angry."
"I also know that my father feels sorry for the innocent people who died tragically in Northeast Road."
"But my father must also understand that the terrain of the Northeast Road has determined from the beginning that most of the Northeast soldiers' operations will be conducted on land, but these rogue bandits all come from the sea."
"The soldiers and soldiers in the Northeast Road have no experience in naval warfare at all. Most of the naval forces are just superficial projects and have no actual combat experience at all."
"Usually, it's okay to use them as a facade to scare people, but if we let them actually go to the battlefield, they will face this kind of situation."
Li Chengqian said with a sincere expression: "My father was also a general who led the army in war. Has my father forgotten how he felt when he led the new soldiers to the battlefield?"
"this……"
Li Shimin also had a meal.
As Li Chengqian said, he was also a general who led the army in war.
Therefore, he certainly understands what it is like to lead a group of inexperienced recruits onto the battlefield.
Because he has no battlefield experience at all.
These new recruits were either frightened to the point of pissing their pants when they went to the battlefield.
Or they are timid and don't know how to deal with the situation they are facing.
As a general, when dealing with these new recruits, most of the time they are tormented and have no temper at all.
So strictly speaking, he is also responsible.
Because he did not deploy enough elite troops on the Northeast Road, nor did he send naval troops to permanently station on the Northeast Road to protect the people along the coast, this resulted in this result.
Thinking of this.
Li Shimin took a deep breath.
"But they lost the battle after all."
"The people were also killed and injured."
"Shouldn't they be punished?"
Although this is the case
It sounds like this, but it can be clearly seen.
Li Shimin is no longer as angry as he was just now.
When all the ministers in the court saw this scene, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
To persuade His Majesty to calm down, His Highness must personally go into battle.
And at this moment.
The eyes of everyone in the venue also fell on Li Chengqian.
They also wanted to know how Li Chengqian made the decision in his heart and how to handle this matter so that all parties would be satisfied.
At this time.
Li Chengqian said: "Of course the punishment must be given, but the punishment of beheading if my father makes any move is too severe."
"According to the child's opinion."
"Why don't we demote each of these people to one level?"
"The generals will be vanguards, the vanguards will be centurions, the centurions will be corps commanders, and the corps commanders will be soldiers."
"When will they be able to avenge their crimes and perform meritorious service? When will they be able to kill all the bandits, then we will determine rewards and punishments based on their merits."
I heard what Li Chengqian said.
All the ministers in the court exchanged glances frequently.
"His Majesty!"
"I think His Highness's proposal is very good."
Changsun Wuji was the first to walk out of the crowd, faced Li Shimin and said, "The rogue bandits' rebellion is equivalent to a slap in the face to the Northeast Road garrison. I believe many people are holding their breath in their hearts."
"If Your Majesty can give them a chance, they will definitely know their shame and be brave enough to drive those bandits out of the country!"
"That's right!"
Li Ji also stood up and said: "And I think that the most important thing is, as His Highness said, to mobilize the navy to guard the coastline."
"After all, the Northeast Road is not the Northeast Road of the past. Whether it is a light industrial base or an agricultural base, it is an important property of our Tang Dynasty."
"If the bandits are allowed to cause trouble again and again, it will definitely affect the peace and finance of the Tang Dynasty."
After these two people stood up.
The ministers in the field also began to check one after another.
And they are all kinds of things, and they have everything.
Li Shimin's face was also uncertain, and finally it fell on Li Chengqian's face.
"What do you think?"
Seeing that he was asking for his opinion again, Li Chengqian felt a little strange.
He looked at Li Shimin suspiciously.
I saw a faint smile on this old guy's face.
Li Chengqian also suddenly realized something.
I knock?
Why do you feel like you've fallen into this old guy's trap? Li Shimin's eyes are definitely bright.
"Why not?"
"Don't you know how many people died at the hands of rogue bandits because of their negligence?"
Li Shimin asked with a dark face.
"But……"
"They did not neglect their duties."
Li Chengqian said in a calm voice: "In fact, they have tried their best to protect the people."
