    ?

    Li Shimin looked around at everyone, and there was no way to crack them all for the time being.  The emotion in Li Shimin's heart was even heavier.  Li Shimin thought for a while, then said: "Arrange it, and prepare to withdraw to Chang'an."

    Wei Shuyu remonstrated: "Your Majesty, I think it is inappropriate to retreat."

    Li Shimin said: "Why?"

    Wei Shuyu said: "The reason is very simple. If we withdraw our troops now, Du Qi's army will be like a broken bamboo and kill all the way to the city of Chang'an. After all, after passing Anrong Pass, there is no force along the way that can resist Du Qi."

    "The most important thing is that the big families in the pass have long been related to Du Qi. The big families with five surnames and Qiwang all sent their children to Xia Guo, and the same is true for the big families in the pass. Now that Du Qi is here, the big families  The family will definitely support it."

    "It will be very easy for Du Qi to enter the master's place. So at the moment, I think it is impossible to retreat!"

    Wei Shuyu said with a worried look, "Once we retreat now, there will be no chance."

    Li Shimin said: "But how to resist?"

    Wei Shuyu was dumbfounded.

    This is a knot. The current Tang Dynasty does not have enough troops to resist Xia Guo. If there are enough troops, if there are enough strength, they will not withdraw.

    Wei Shuyu thought about it, and suddenly said: "Your Majesty, can you find another way? Since you can't defeat Du Qi head-on, then start with the people around Du Qi. Li Xiaogong, Du Ruhui, and Li Jing were all Tang officials before, and now they are under Du Qi's command.  Effectiveness, Your Majesty can arrange for someone to notify the hidden stake in the capital of the Xia Kingdom, and send a letter to Du Ruhui, asking Du Ruhui to personally dissuade Du Qi, so as to gain a chance."

    Wei Shuyu said: "Du Ruhui is Du Qi's father after all, if he comes forward, there may be a glimmer of hope."

    "Difficult! Difficult!"

    Li Shimin shook his head and spoke.

    He didn't think that asking Du Ruhui to come forward would accomplish the task.

    Du Qi is not a simple character.

    Not threatened.

    Moreover, Du Qi, as the lord of Xia Kingdom, is even less likely to change his own decision because of personal feelings.

    Fang Xuanling took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, it is now a matter of life and death. I believe that there is nothing that cannot be done. Therefore, I believe that another arrangement should be supplemented, and there may be a chance of survival."

    Li Shimin asked: "What arrangement?"

    Fang Xuanling replied: "My Great Tang, I professed my minister to Xia Guo, and even after Du Ruhui came forward, His Majesty personally brought gifts to Du Qi, and asked Du Qi to make peace and profess his minister. With Du Ruhui's persuasion, His Majesty went in person  , maybe there is a glimmer of hope. Apart from this, I can't think of any other way."

    Li Shimin's face changed abruptly when he heard it, and his eyes were full of fierce expressions, as if he wanted to choose someone to kill.  Even in Li Shimin's heart, there was a monstrous murderous intent, and the murderous intent fell on Fang Xuanling, which made people shudder.

    Li Shimin stared at Fang Xuanling, and said: "Fang Qing, do you know what you are talking about?"

    Fang Xuanling held his head high, and said loudly, "Your Majesty knows what you said, and it can be called treason. But I ask myself, the heart of loyalty to His Majesty can be seen in the sun and the moon. I have followed His Majesty for more than twenty years, and it has not changed from the beginning to the end.  If Your Majesty wants to kill the minister because of what he said, the minister will admit it."

    Li Shimin flicked his sleeves, snorted but stopped talking.  He knew that Fang Xuanling was loyal to him, so he was just talking, but he was silent in his heart.

    Wei Zheng and the others did not speak for the time being.

    The atmosphere was extremely silent.

    Even depressing.

    ? Li Shimin is now at the end of his life, and even years of wars have led to a lack of domestic supplies and a difficult life for the people.  Under these conditions, it is unrealistic for Li Shimin to compete with Du Qi again.

    Now I can only ask Du Ruhui to come forward.

    There is only a chance.

    Li Shimin is not an indecisive person, even though he is helpless and unwilling to accept Fang Xuanling's suggestion.  But Li Shimin finally accepted the reality and approved Fang Xuanling's suggestion.

    For now, survival is the top priority.

    The rest can be ignored for now.

    Li Shimin said word by word: "Fang Qing, you take a team of soldiers, change your appearance, and go to the capital of the Xia Kingdom in person, and you go to lobby Du Ruhui in person, and ask him to come forward to persuade him. When Du Ruhui arrives at the front line, Du Qi's  In the army, I personally came to the front line to seek peace from Du Qi. I, the Tang Dynasty, am willing to become a subordinate state of the Xia Kingdom. I, Li Shimin, respect Du Qi as the master."

    When these words came out of Li Shimin's mouth, the speed was extremely slow, but every timeLi Shimin's complexion turned ugly after saying just one word.  Even his eyes widened, and there was endless anger in those eyes.

    At this moment, Li Shimin was gloomy all over his body.

    It gives people a very depressing feeling.

    Fang Xuanling was silent for a while. He raised his robe and knelt on the ground, solemnly said: "I will definitely complete your majesty's entrustment. If you don't complete the task, I will come to see you."

    Li Shimin said: "Fang Qing, I will stick to the Anrong Pass first. If I can't hold on, I will leave the Anrong Pass. However, I will not withdraw my troops. I will fight Du Qi nearby to buy time. Wait, wait."  You go back. Of course, I will also arrange for someone to go to see Du Qi to seek peace first, and try to hold Du Qi back, so as to buy time for your actions."

    "The minister obeys the order!"

    Fang Xuanling got the order, turned around and went down.

    Li Shimin was still standing on the tower, but at this moment, Li Shimin's temperament gradually changed.  Without the old scenery of Jiyue, there is a touch of coldness, giving people a gloomy and cold feeling.

    Wei Zheng, Wei Shuyu and the others all knew that Li Shimin was suffering a lot in his heart.  If not, Li Shimin would not have asked Du Qi for peace.

    Everyone was silent.

    All of them looked solemn.

    Li Shimin was silent for a long time, and suddenly ordered again: "Wei Zheng, you arrange someone to go to see Du Qi and express my intention to seek peace. No matter what, all actions now are mainly to stabilize Du Qi, to try to delay time, wait until  Fang Xuanling returns."

    Wei Zheng said: "Your Majesty, let me go personally. If Fang Xiang can go to Xia Guo without fear of death, I will naturally go there without fear of death. In a word, I will do my best."

    Li Shimin said: "In times of crisis, you can know your loyal ministers. Wei Xiangzhong is loyal and courageous, and I know it. You take the whole team and go, and I will wait for you at Anrong Pass."

    Wei Zheng said: "I obey the order."

    Li Shimin said: "Go and ask Du Qi for peace. If necessary, you can also say that I am willing to be a minister to Du Qi. This is a condition for Du Qi. In addition, you can also promise to pay tribute every year. You can even open trade routes and give  There are many other conditions. In a word, you are solely responsible for keeping Du Qi stable. If you can keep Du Qi safe and let Du Qi retreat before Prime Minister Fang returns, that would be the best result. "

    Wei Zhengdao: "I will do my best."

    Li Shimin waved his hand, and Wei Zheng turned around and retreated.

    After Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling withdrew one after another, Li Shimin went straight to the room on the tower to rest.  Originally there were soldiers to serve, but Li Shimin arranged for him to sit in the room alone to rest.

    At this moment Li Shimin was sitting cross-legged on the bed.  His eyes were low, his eyes were deep, and there was a cold expression on his face.  When he thought of asking Du Qi for peace, or even surrendering to Du Qi, Li Shimin felt as if countless ants were gnawing at his heart, and he felt a thousand kinds of pain in his heart.

    He clenched his fist tightly, even because his nails poked his palms, under force, the nails pierced into the skin, and blood flowed out without knowing it. The whole person's emotions have fallen into the most depressed mood.

    At this moment, Li Shimin thought of the dead Li Yuan, the dead Changsun Wuji, the dead Li Ji, Duan Zhixuan, Hou Junji and others Li Shimin held his hands tightly when he thought of these dead people.

    "I will definitely take revenge."

    "I will get everything back. Du Qi, I will not give up."

    Li Shimin muttered to himself.

    This is the comfort he is giving himself now, and he can only calm down the anger in his heart by doing this.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
