Chapter 19: Prepare for Military Training
After reading the list, Li Haochen left the military camp. He knew in his heart that Emperor Li Yuan did this now, which would inevitably make Li Shimin take risks. He now needs to cultivate a powerful army for Prince Li Jiancheng. Gao Shun's trapped camp is the best choice. However, if he wants to train the trapped camp, he must get the approval of the prince. Although he is now named the commander of the left guard of the East Palace, in fact, he has not taken office yet. He is now in name but has no soldier in his hands.
After leaving the military camp, he ran to the prince's bedroom. After passing the eunuch's news, he entered the palace where the prince lived.
Li Haochen was just about to show off his favor, but when Li Jiancheng saw that it was him, he quickly came up with a smile and said with a smile: "Haochen, please spare me! What's the matter if you are so anxious to come to me?"
As soon as Li Jiancheng saw this overjoyed expression, Li Haochen thought to himself that something was wrong. At this moment, he was afraid that Li Jiancheng would not agree to the training. After thinking about it, he came up with a plan and said, "Your Highness, do you think you can rest assured?"
Li Jiancheng laughed and said, "Haochen, I know that this is all your credit. Don't worry, I will not forget it." Li Jiancheng also felt that he wanted to take credit, so he hurriedly said so that he could rest assured.
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, I dare not take credit. If the current situation makes the Crown Prince feel that he can rest assured, then I will not only have no credit, but have made any mistakes. I also ask Your Highness to punish me severely!" As he said that, he knelt on the ground with a plop.
His actions really scared Li Jiancheng. Li Jiancheng put away his smile and said with a serious look on his face: "Haochen, where did you start? I don't understand!"
"The prince really thinks that the King of Qin will stop there? The emperor's reduction of the King of Qin's power will only make the King of Qin more eager for success, and it may be unfavorable to Your Highness. However, Your Highness is careful in everything, and there should be no major problem. But Your Highness is complacent and unprepared at this moment. Haochen probably did this to harm Your Highness!" As he said, he also looked heartbroken, as if Li Jiancheng had been assassinated by Li Shimin at this moment.
Li Jiancheng frowned, obviously thinking about Li Haochen's words at this moment, and then said for a moment: "Haochen, you have been worried. My father has ordered Shimin to move out of Chang'an in early June and return to his fiefdom. He will not be allowed to enter the capital without an imperial edict. He no longer has the opportunity to be detrimental to me!"
"The prince's words are wrong. Haochen thought it would be otherwise. The King of Qin was like a tiger and wolf. Since he knew the emperor's intentions, he would definitely try hard. I expected the King of Qin would definitely make a desperate bet. Your Highness must be careful!" Li Haochen saw that Li Jiancheng was so blindly optimistic, so he could only patiently comfort him.
"What Haochen said is not false. I agree with Haochen. Your Highness must not be careless and let the King of Qin take advantage of it!" Wei Zheng walked in as he spoke, because Wei Zheng was the prince's minister, and Li Jiancheng had already given instructions that if Wei Zheng was visiting during the day, he would not need to communicate with him directly.
Wei Zheng's words were quite renowned in Li Jiancheng's mind, so Wei Zheng spoke, so Li Jiancheng had to take this matter seriously. He looked at Wei Zheng and said, "Mr. Xuancheng, if it was really like what you and the other two said, what should I do?"
Wei Zheng smiled without saying a word, but looked at Li Haochen and said, "The prince doesn't need to worry, I think Haochen already has a way!"
After Wei Zheng finished speaking, Li Jiancheng and Wei Zheng all looked at him. He thought to himself: "Good you Wei Zheng, you played the ball!" But thinking that he had indeed had a countermeasure, Li Haochen did not refuse and said: "Your Highness, I think what you need most now is a guard with a small number of people but with excellent combat power!"
After hearing his words, Li Jiancheng was slightly displeased. Who didn't know that he needed the protection of experts now, but there were so many experts there? What he said was equivalent to not saying it.
All of Li Jiancheng's expressions fell into Li Haochen's eyes. He knew why Li Jiancheng was because of him, and he didn't keep it in secret. He said directly: "Your Highness, do you know the camp of Gao Shun, a famous general during the Three Kingdoms period?"
When Li Jiancheng heard this, his eyes lit up. How could he forget such an important thing? Among the three treasures that Li Haochen has obtained, "The Art of War". This book has practiced the art of war in the camp.
"Haochen, do you mean you can train to fall into the camp? How long will it take and what support you need? Just say it!" Li Jiancheng said excitedly. Until now, Li Jiancheng didn't think that the King of Qin could do anything that was angry and resentful. After all, he was a brother, and Li Jiancheng was still willing to believe Li Shimin.
However, hearing that Li Haochen was able to train elite soldiers like the trap camp would be of great benefit to the future expansion of territory in the Tang Dynasty. How could Li Jiancheng not be excited at this moment?
Li Haochen stretched out three fingers.
Li Jiancheng said, "Three years? Although it's a bit long, it's still acceptable!" Li Haochen shook his head.
Li Jiancheng saw that the guess was wrong and continued: "Three months? This speed is too exaggerated!"
Li Haochen continued to shake his head when he heard this, and then said, "Three weeks are enough!"
"Suck!" Li Jiancheng and Wei Zheng took a breath of air conditioning at the same time when they heard this. The speed was indeed a bit terrifying.
"How sure are you to complete the training at this time?" Li Jiancheng knew this speed, and the elite soldiers trained must have the possibility of failure.
Li Haochen laughed and said, "If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince supports him fully, I will be 100% sure that I can complete it!" He actually said with great ease that he had already read this "The Art of War" and it only cared about teamwork and personal physical fitness standards. Li Haochen knew some ways to train physical fitness in his previous life. He believed that using these methods would allow these soldiers to meet the standards in three weeks.
"Okay, that's great! Today I want to lend you the Prince's waist card. With him, you can mobilize all resources in the East Palace. I look forward to the camp you trained to create!" Li Jiancheng said, and took off a jade pendant on his body and handed it to Li Haochen.
"Your Highness, it's not too late to do this matter. I'll go to the schoolyard to order troops now!" He respectfully said to Li Jiancheng.
Li Jiancheng did not follow Li Haochen into the military camp in the end, but asked Wei Zheng to announce Li Haochen's appointment to the soldiers on behalf of him. This also shows that the prince attaches great importance to it. This matter made these soldiers and generals who had ghosts dare not disobey him, and this would also make his work better.
