Seeing the person coming, Li Shimin quickly asked: "Mr. Lai, may I ask how many troops of our Great Tang have assembled at this moment?"
"Reporting to the emperor, one hundred thousand troops are far away in Suzhou, one hundred thousand troops are far away in Liangzhou, and one hundred thousand troops are far away in Yangzhou! The rest of the troops are all distributed on the other borders of the Tang Dynasty!" Du Ruhui said.
"Well, have you informed them to go to Youzhou City for support?" Li Shimin asked again.
Du Ruhui nodded, and said: "The emperor, the notice is a notice, but it seems that Suzhou has been transformed and has also been attacked by the sudden alliance army, so they can't allocate their strength to support Youzhou City!"
"Because the army of the Tumeng is good at fighting and retreating while fighting, the soldiers in the border town of Suzhou are worried all day! If they leave Suzhou to support Youzhou City, I am afraid that the city of Suzhou will not be able to keep it. !"
"What? The sudden alliance army has already started to attack Suzhou? What about the troops in other places? Can they still send soldiers to support Youzhou City?"
"Reporting to the emperor, there are some, but they are also ineffective. It will take a long time to gather troops!"
"Then how long will it take to gather 300,000 troops and go to Youzhou City for support? I can't believe it. I can't even get 300,000 troops out of a mighty Tang Dynasty? Hmph!"
At this moment, Li Shimin was really angry.
And Du Ruhui sighed again and again, comforting Li Shimin, and said: "Your Majesty, due to the distribution of soldiers in the Tang Dynasty, after all, they spread, and 300,000 troops can still be produced, but it just takes time!"
"Then how long will it take?"
"Seven days, at least, seven more days!"
"What? Another seven days? It has been three days since the 300,000 reinforcements from the Tumeng have arrived in Youzhou City, and we still need seven days? Why?"
"Report to the emperor, the emperor calm down! Because, the sudden alliance army came prepared, they assembled the army as early as last month, and started the plan to attack Datang, and our Datang, it is equivalent to being beaten. Unprepared, there is no time to send so many troops to support Youzhou City! And now, not only Youzhou City, but even Suzhou, Yizhou and other cities are under full attack from the Tumeng army. Can we still use 300,000 troops to support Youzhou City! Even if there are, they are scattered and dispatched from other frontier fighters! Your Majesty, maybe you still don’t know the status of the frontier The critical situation! The situation has reached an unimaginable level!"
"What? It's so serious?"
After Li Shimin had a conversation with Du Ruhui, his whole mood suddenly became extremely heavy.
He really couldn't believe that the two enemy countries, Tubo and Turks, would join forces to attack Datang?
So much so that Datang couldn't allocate enough troops to support Youzhou City.
But Li Shimin really hoped that they would not annoy him, otherwise, after their own fraudulent bombs were developed, it would be the time for them to destroy the country of Turks and Tubo.
Li Shimin gritted his teeth tightly, his fists turned white.
He is enduring, as an emperor, he knows that he still has to endure now, he can't get angry.
But in fact, Li Shimin's heart has already exploded with anger. The so-called can't bear it.
When you can't bear it until you can't bear it, you two countries, Tubo and Turks, just wait to perish.
When the time comes, don't blame me, Li Shimin, for being cruel.
Taking a deep breath, Li Shimin tried his best to calm down his mind, and then asked again: "Mr. Lai, may I ask if there are any small countries in the surrounding area that are willing to send troops to support our Tang Dynasty?"
Du Ruhui's face was a little ugly, he shook his head, and said: "The messenger we sent has not returned yet, Your Majesty, those small countries are already in danger in the war, how could they come back to support our Great Tang?"
"You're right, relying on them with tens of thousands of troops won't help us much!"
"Hey, Lord Lai, what do you think is so good? The Tubo and Turks are about to attack our Tang Dynasty in an all-round way? Over the years, the three countries have never interfered with each other. Why did they suddenly form an alliance and attack us? Datang?"
Li Shimin asked with emotion.
Du Ruhui shook his head and said, "Why else? This year coincides with the year of drought. In fact, they have long coveted the land of our Great Tang! The Eighth Prince used to cheat them with more than 400,000 gold in Suzhou City The money is actually just an excuse for them to attack Datang! If the Eighth Prince does not take their money, they will find other reasons to attack Datang! So the emperor, in fact, the sudden alliance army attacked Datang. Don't blame the Eighth Prince for the matter!"
"Okay, okay, stop talking, I understand! In fact, I didn't blame him in my heart, I just talked about it. I want the Eighth Prince to spend some money to support our troops!"
Li Shimin sighed.
How did he know that he just said something jokingly with Li Chengfeng, and Li Chengfeng really took it seriously, and went to Youzhou City to fight with 3000 Xuanjia troops, fully armed?
But it seems that this is not a bad thing.
According to the description in Li Jing's envelope, Li Chengfeng's military ability is not inferior to his, and may be even stronger than him.
Therefore, Li Shimin is actually not worried about Li Chengfeng's safety.
What he was worried about was, now that Li Jing is injured, can Youzhou City be saved?
If Youzhou City falls, the entire land of Tang Dynasty will be in jeopardy.
"No, we need allies, we need allies!"
"The minister seconded the proposal, and the veteran minister can also raise it. We, Tang Dynasty, need allies!"
But then Li Shimin muttered something, and Du Ruhui, who was on the side, clasped his fists and said that the minister seconded the proposal.
In other words, he, Du Ruhui, very much agrees with Li Shimin's idea.
But the surrounding countries are all small countries, and the only country with a strong military power is Goguryeo.
At this time, Du Ruhui spoke again and said: "I want to report to the emperor, the prince of Goguryeo is asking to see him, he has something to say to the emperor!"
"Heir of Goguryeo? Has he come to the capital?" Li Shimin's eyes lit up immediately.
Du Ruhui nodded, and replied: "Yes, Your Majesty, the Crown Prince of Goguryeo is waiting outside the gate of the palace!"
"Okay, let him come in quickly, just in time, I also have something to say to him!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Du Ruhui breathed a sigh of relief, then turned his head and shouted, "I will see you, son of Xuan Goguryeo!"
…
A young man in white, with a man, a woman, and two guards, came in from the gate of the court hall.
This man in white is Gao Chen, the eldest son of Goguryeo.
Gao Chen's appearance is still the same as before, handsome and handsome, giving people a feeling that the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water.
