Chapter 876: Drive away tigers and swallow wolves

 Night.

Suzhou City Head.

Li Chengqian quietly looked at the back of Gao Zhixing and his group as they left, and sighed slowly.

Shannan Road only has soldiers and no generals.

Therefore, Li Chengqian could only send Gao Zhixing to take care of him.

At this time, Li Tingxue walked up behind him: "It's getting cold, go back and rest early."

"Don't be busy and rest."

"I want to be alone."

Li Chengqian looked forward with deep eyes.

But Li Tingxue did not leave.

She walked straight to Li Chengqian's side and said, "If I guessed correctly, you should be worried about your brothers, right?"

"Um……"

Li Chengqian nodded.

"Even if you don't say it, I can feel it."

"You guys came to Jiangnan Road this time not just for fun."

Li Tingxue said slowly: "Perhaps, I just came here to eradicate the foundation laid by that guy Li Tai in Jiangnan Road."

Hearing this, Li Chengqian's face was full of surprise.

As Li Tingxue said, he did not tell Li Tingxue why he came to Jiangnan Road.

He really didn't expect that his sister could guess it, and she guessed it right.

And saw Li Chengqian's appearance.

Li Tingxue smiled even happier.

"What's wrong? I didn't expect your sister to be so smart?"

"I can also tell you that even though I didn't go back to Chang'an with you, sister, I know that Li Ke's incident was most likely caused by Li Tai."

"And his purpose for doing this is to divert your attention elsewhere."

Li Tingxue rubbed her chin and said, "How can I say this..."

Seeing this, Li Chengqian said helplessly: "Driving the tiger to swallow the wolf..."

"That's right, that's right, it's to drive the tiger away and devour the wolf."

Li Tingxue said cheerfully: "Should I say it or not, Li Tai is indeed very smart, but it's a pity that he used all his intelligence in heresy."

"yes."

"If he can figure it out
How wonderful it would be if the efforts of calculating people were used in building the Tang Dynasty."

"It's a pity that there is no if in this world."

Li Chengqian sighed and said: "Sometimes, the more afraid you are of something happening, the more likely it will happen."

"At the beginning, I didn't want my brothers to turn against each other because of the power of the throne."

"But now, both Li Ke and Li Tai have regarded me as their mortal enemy."

"At the beginning, I didn't want the conflicts within the royal family to spread to the outside world."

"But now Li Ke not only rebelled by himself, but also brought hundreds of thousands of people with him."

He shook his head and sighed: "Behind hundreds of thousands of people, there are hundreds of thousands of families."

"Is Li Ke so confident that he can kill me with these hundreds of thousands of people?"

"Does Li Ke really think that if I die, he will be favored by his father?"

"Don't he know that no matter whether he wins or loses in this war, his fate will be death?"

Sometimes he really doesn't understand.

What on earth are going on in these people’s heads?

Why do you always think about letting yourself die?

Could it be that his own death would really be of that much benefit to them?

After hearing what Li Chengqian said, Li Tingxue also sighed lightly.

"Of all things in the world, the human heart is the most unpredictable."

"There's no point in trying to figure this out here."

Li Tingxue looked at Li Chengqian and said, "With this time, you might as well think about how to make good use of the current situation."

Hearing this, Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows.

He looked at Li Tingxue and said, "Sister, what do you mean by this?"

"Isn't the purpose of your coming here to target those aristocratic families who wear the same pants as Li Tai?"

Li Tingxue raised the corner of her mouth, a flash of ice flashed in her eyes, and said, "Then isn't now the best opportunity?"

Hearing this, Li Chengqian was suddenly stunned.

It was also because he used his brain too much these past few days, which caused his brain to become somewhat clogged.

So much so that he didn't even think of such a simple plan.

If we can really let these rebels destroy the local aristocratic families.

Not only was the snipe and the clam competing for the fisherman's profit, but it also helped him solve a serious problem in his heart.

After all, there is no psychological pressure in putting the blame on the rebels.

Moreover, it will also make Li Tai's plan go to waste, and let him understand what it means to lose his wife and lose his army.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on his face.

He looked straight at Li Tingxue and said with a smile: "It still depends on my sister. If it were anyone else, I wouldn't have thought of such a good idea."

"Stop trying to kill me."

Li Tingxue rolled her eyes.

Then, her face was startled: "The war is about to ignite, are you ready?"

"certainly."

Li Chengqian nodded and said: "Tomorrow I will lead Qianzi Camp to Changzhou."

"This won't work."

Li Tingxue said directly: "There are tens of thousands of rebels, but your Qianzi camp only has more than a thousand people. Are you crazy?"

"Of course not crazy."

"Besides, although there are few people in Qianzi camp, there are many local soldiers."

"When we get there, I will naturally gather the local army to fight against the rebels."

"And there is no need for me to lead people to take the initiative. I just need to lead them to build a defensive line to defend the rebel offensive."

"It won't take long before the imperial army will arrive in droves."

"At that time, these rebels will be nothing more than a group of turtles in a jar."

Li Chengqian said it very easily.

But Li Tingxue knew how dangerous it was.

"That won't work either."

She said directly: "Your status is extraordinary. If you want to go, I will go too."

"Sister, it's not a matter of who goes and who doesn't."
"But if I go, it will be far more useful than if you go."

"After all, my title of prince is still of some use. At least it can boost the morale of the soldiers under my command."

Li Chengqian sighed softly and said: "What's more, if you go, who will protect Grandpa Huang from behind? Who will help me guard the logistics supply line?"

Indeed, given the current situation, it would be safest for Li Chengqian to lead the attack alone and Li Tingxue to stay behind.

Li Tingxue also knew this very well.

However, she was still very worried.

After all, even if those people were a ragtag group, they still numbered in the tens of thousands.

She has also seen the combat effectiveness of Jiangnan soldiers.

It's okay to let those Jiangnan soldiers scare people in normal times, but on the battlefield, they are really like white-flour steamed buns freshly baked from the pot, waiting to be kneaded.

But in this kind of matter, no one can mess with Li Chengqian.

In the end, Li Tingxue had no choice but to do as he asked.



Liangzhou Military Camp.

Feng Guangyao and Liu Qi also received a special guest today.

Li Chengqian's personal eunuch, Xiao Chuzi.

After parting ways with Li Chengqian, Xiao Chuzi came here alone.

The original order Li Chengqian gave him was to pay close attention to the developments in Shu.

Once he noticed something was wrong, he immediately handed his handwritten letter to Liu Qi and Feng Guangyao, who were in charge of the Liangzhou Army.

When the news from Shu came, it was already three or four days after Li Ke raised his troops.

At that moment, little Chuzi did not dare to hesitate at all, and hurriedly came here with Li Chengqian's letter.

Wait until Liu Qi reads the letter.

His eyes looked at the little Chuzi in front of him in confusion.

Feng Guangyao, who was standing next to him, also came over and asked in a low voice: "Is this really an autographed letter from His Highness?"

"The notes belong to His Highness."

Liu Qi pursed his lips, and then asked Xiao Chuzi: "Aside from asking you to give us the letter, did Your Highness bring you anything else..."
