    ?

    In Rouyuan County, Du Qi led his army to station here.

    Now it is December, and the weather is even colder.

    The whole land is a vast expanse of whiteness.

    At this time, Rouyuan County was even shrouded in heavy snow, but the life of the people was not bad.  After all, today's Xia Kingdom has a very good economic development, especially Rouyuan County, as a border, occupies a geographical advantage, so the lives of the people here are even better.

    In the city, the large tent of the Chinese army.

    Du Qi is writing a book.

    This is his only way of pastime after handling government affairs.

    He can't do research, so write down some of the mechanical manufacturing that can be researched today, as well as the technological products that can be built today, and give them to the people at the University of Science and Technology for research.

    When Du Qi was writing the book, an attendant entered and reported: "Your Majesty, the soldiers sent by Li Shimin have already arrived outside the camp. He said that there is a letter from Li Shimin."

    Du Qi put down his brush and said, "Bring people in."

    "yes!"

    The servant went to deliver the order.

    Not long after, soldiers from the Tang army entered.

    In order to avoid being targeted, Changsun Wuji just sent one of the most ordinary soldiers to deliver the letter.  The soldier handed over the letter and stood aside to wait.

    Du Qi frowned when he saw the contents of the letter.  He glanced at this ordinary soldier, and it was clear that Li Shimin deliberately arranged to send him to death, so he was an insignificant person.

    Du Qi had no intention of killing.

    He looked at the soldiers and said, "Go back and tell Li Shimin that he has adopted the most wrong and extreme method. Tell him to wait in Guazhou City. Our army will arrive in Guazhou City in a few days."

    The soldier responded, then turned and retreated.

    Du Qi ordered: "Come here, call Shangguanyi, Laiji, and Guan Zhilan to discuss matters. In addition, call Li Jing, Xue Rengui, Ma Yuan, and Xiao Yuanqi."

    "yes!"

    Soldiers are ordered to notify immediately.

    Not long after, all the people entered the camp together.

    In Du Qi's camp, there were charcoal fires burning to keep out the cold, so it was quite warm.  After entering one by one, they took off their thick cotton clothes, gloves and hats, and sat down.

    Du Qi looked around and said, "The reason why you are all called here is because Ma Zhou was sent to Guazhou City as an envoy and was detained by Li Shimin. Not only that, but Li Shimin also sent a letter saying that we should hand over the mortars to  Change back to Ma Zhou."

    "Don't even think about it!"

    Shangguanyi spoke immediately.

    With sharp eyes, he said: "Mortars are the foundation of the Xia Kingdom. Once we hand over the mortars, Datang's strength will definitely be improved. And once we hand over the mortars, Li Shimin knows that His Majesty is soft-hearted.  It's bound to get bigger. So at this moment, it's absolutely not allowed to happen."

    At this time, Shangguanyi complained about Ma Zhou in his heart. If Ma Zhou hadn't been naive, it wouldn't have happened.

    Put Xia Guo in trouble.

    This made Du Qi embarrassed.

    Xue Rengui also stated: "Your Majesty, our mortars are the decisive weapon. Because we have mortars, we can suppress the Tang army and suppress the Tang army. Once the mortars are given to Li Shimin on a large scale  , he is a threat to us. So it is absolutely impossible to give him a weapon."

    The rest of the people expressed their opinions one after another.

    ? Although Ma Zhou's safety is involved, and everyone is concerned about Ma Zhou and worried about Ma Zhou, Xia Guo is the root cause.  Once Xia Guo is affected, not only Ma Zhou, but everyone will be attacked by the Tang Dynasty.

    Du Qi nodded and said: "I know that handing over the mortar is definitely impossible. What I have to consider now is how to take Ma Zhou back. The people of my Xia Kingdom will never allow them to be coerced by Li Shimin. And this time  Things will definitely make Li Shimin regret it."

    "This is the key."

    After Du Qi said the request, he continued: "What we have to do now is not to complain. Because it is not reasonable to detain envoys and use envoys to threaten them, although they have happened in history. No one thought  , Li Shimin will take such cruel measures."

    Shangguanyi has always been a hardliner. With sharp eyes, he said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, I want to save Ma Zhou. In fact, there is a very simple way. As long as Your Majesty is determined, there will be no problem."

    Du Qi asked: "What way?"

    Shangguanyi said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, we will lead the army directly to Guazhou City. At the same time, we will escort all the prisoners of the Tang Army to go directly to Chen Bing outside Guazhou City.He ordered Li Shimin to release Ma Zhou.  If Li Shimin does not release Ma Zhou, then we will kill the prisoners.  If you don't release them for a day, you will kill a hundred people.  I don't believe it anymore, Li Shimin can carry it.  "

    After a pause, Shangguanyi continued: "As long as Li Shimin releases people, then we don't have to kill the prisoners. Then entrust the lives of all the prisoners to Li Shimin's hands to decide. If Li Shimin refuses, then work for Li Shimin  He must have sympathy. Because Li Shimin doesn't care about these captives now, and he won't care about them in the future."

    Guan Zhilan said: "Mr. Shangguan's plan is good, but what if Li Shimin wants to kill Ma Zhou?"

    "impossible!"

    Shangguanyi said: "Li Shimin killed Ma Zhou, but he got nothing. On the contrary, he will only increase his hatred. Therefore, I think that we can use this to threaten Li Shimin. And when the time comes, we will also publicize this matter. I don't believe it.  Li Shimin dares to carry on."

    Lai Ji also said in a deep voice: "Li Shimin's actions this time have broken the bottom line and the convention. Since Li Shimin has done this, then we can't blame us. Your Majesty, I agree with Shangguan's proposal."

    "Your Majesty, I agree with Shangguan's suggestion."

    Xiao Yuanqi also spoke.

    One by one, they all spoke in agreement.

    Only Li Jing never spoke.

    Du Qi looked at Li Jing and said, "Mr. Medicine Master, what do you think?"

    Li Jing said: "Your Majesty, I agree with this arrangement, because at present, it is the best arrangement. If you blindly adopt soft measures, you will be considered as bullying. Therefore, the only way is to retaliate with a tooth for a tooth and blood for blood."  The best arrangement. However, the veteran will not participate in this campaign."

    Du Qi nodded and said: "In that case, it's convenient for you to stay behind."

    Li Jing said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your understanding."

    Du Qi ordered: "Xue Rengui, Ma Yuan, Xiao Yuanqi, immediately mobilize troops and prepare to send troops."

    In fact, according to the previous plan, troops will not be dispatched immediately. It is necessary to wait for the situation in the south of Tianzhu to settle, and to cut off part of Li Shimin's flesh and blood before making arrangements.  But now, Du Qi can't control so much, he has no choice but to choose to send troops.

    Xiao Yuanqi, Xue Rengui and Ma Yuan responded and went to dispatch their troops.

    Even though it is braving the severe cold now, the army has all left Rouyuan County in just half an hour, and all the prisoners were also escorted away.

    Even so, Du Qi also left the army to guard the county.

    It was handed over to Pei Changqing.

    The army marched forward in a mighty manner, heading straight for the direction of Guazhou City.  When entering the border, he encountered no obstacles along the way, but he was also spotted by Tang Jun's sentry, and he flew back to report as soon as he took the first step.

    The sentry news was sent back to Guazhou City.

    Li Shimin was not too surprised when he got the news that Du Qi had sent troops directly.  Du Qi is not a kind man or a believer, nor is he an incompetent person. It is impossible to send a letter, but Du Qi obediently sent the weapon. There will definitely be a contest.

    This must be done.

    Li Shimin immediately arranged for people to call Changsun Wuji, told about Du Qi's dispatch of troops, and then continued: "Auxiliary machine, Du Qi's army has already come to Guazhou City. You send orders to all the generals in the army  , ready to fight. Perhaps Du Qi will attack directly before negotiating with us."

    Changsun Wuji said: "I obey!"

    He immediately went down to make arrangements.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
