Just when everyone was waiting for Li Jiancheng to name the generals, Li Jiancheng pointed at himself and said calmly: "The general of this road will be Jiancheng himself."

"this…"

Everyone present was stunned for a moment, but then the Li family, who understood Li Jiancheng's character, understood...

"Your Highness, please think twice..."

Pei Ji, Tang Jian, Dou Wei, Liu Hongji and other ministers did not understand it very well, so they knelt down in a hurry, hoping that Li Jiancheng would give up this idea.

Li Jiancheng raised his eyebrows and asked flatly: "I wonder what's wrong with me personally leading the troops?"

When Pei Ji heard this, he still knelt on the ground and loudly admonished: "War is not a child's play, and the status of a prince is extraordinary. How can he put himself in danger?"

"Your Highness, I don't know what I mean." Liu Hongji interjected immediately, "However, the war is the responsibility of our generals. Now if His Highness's precious body is placed on the battlefield, wouldn't it mean that

Our generals are incompetent? I am wrapped in horse leather on the battlefield, and I am willing to carry out the responsibilities of a general for Your Highness."

"hehe…"

Hearing this, Li Jiancheng immediately sneered.

Pointing at Pei Ji with one hand, his calm words were thought-provoking.

"Confucius said Chengren, Mencius said uprising. Mencius said that the people are the most valuable, the country is second, and the king is the most important. We should aim at the welfare of the people in the world. Now the people can join the army and fight, why do I, the prince, hide behind and wait?

Protected by others? Could it be that we are our parents, but those soldiers are not?"

Li Jiancheng almost roared out the last words. After the nearby palace maids and eunuchs heard this, their legs could not help but tremble, and everyone ran away in a hurry.

"The humble minister is guilty..." Pei Jicheng kowtowed in fear and apologized. You must know that the current prince is extremely powerful, and no matter which minister he is, he is feared from the bottom of his heart.

"Okay, Mr. Pei." Li Jiancheng took a step forward and helped Pei Ji up. "I am not blaming you, but you should understand that decades or hundreds of years ago, which of our ancestors was not from the common people?

Are we superior to others? Life is more valuable. Although Mencius said that we are beyond our reach, we must move towards this goal. We must know that all the people in the world are like water, which can carry a boat and also capsize it!"

Someone shamelessly quoted a famous quote from a famous person. Of course, that person would never admit that he had plagiarized it. He just said it subconsciously!

"Wei Chen has learned a lesson..."

Pei Ji saluted Li Jiancheng. Although he was from a clan, he did not have the temperament of a clan. He also had a certain understanding of the people's situation. When he heard Li Jiancheng say these words, he knew that Li Jiancheng was really for the people.

Think about it.

Turning his head to look at Liu Hongji, Li Jiancheng still maintained a calm tone. "General Liu's kindness is appreciated by Jiancheng, but for this expedition to Wagang, Jiancheng must go in person. Although Jiancheng dare not say that he has a grandson, he is willing to march."

Even in battles and formations, he is not weak."

Li Xiuning secretly murmured in his heart, could Li Jiancheng be described as not weak if he was able to train [Thunderbolt] and train troops with military formations?

In her heart, Li Jiancheng is simply omnipotent!

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."

Liu Hongji kowtowed again and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Li Jiancheng with a wave of his hand.

"Okay..." Li Jiancheng's plain words had an irresistible momentum. "I already understand General Liu's intention, but this trip to Wagang is imperative for me. General Liu doesn't need to say more.

"

Pei Ji, Tang Jian and others on the side kept winking at Liu Hongji, but Liu Hongji looked at Li Jiancheng's face and knew that his persuasion was useless, so he consciously kept his mouth shut.

"Your Highness, I wonder who the deputy general is?"

Li Jiancheng lowered his head and thought for a while. He seemed to have no one left in his hands. If there was someone, he would definitely use it. As for whether the ministers would say that he was nepotistic, Li Jiancheng simply ignored it. As long as he has the ability, he can use it. What else can he do?

If I ask you, it will give you face, otherwise no one will look down on you.

In Li Jiancheng's idea, military and political affairs must be separated. Otherwise, like the Song and Ming dynasties, there would be countless cases where literati interfered in politics, or eunuchs were responsible for supervising the army, which ultimately led to failure.

"I can't think of anyone right now. I wonder if any of the adults would recommend someone?"

"Hmm..." Dou Wei lowered his head and pondered for a while, then stepped forward and asked: "Your Highness, the prince, I think that His Highness King Qi can be the deputy general."

As a minister, you must have abilities and be able to flatter people, otherwise being too upright will offend people. Even if you are loved by the people, it is the emperor who finally gives you this position, so you must be a good person.

Be tactful…

But Dou Wei understands the three flavors, and a loud flattery was filmed silently...

"Yuan Ji?" Li Jiancheng turned to look at Dou Wei and immediately shook his head in opposition. "Yuan Ji can charge into the battle, but it is not possible to let him lead an army."

Li Jiancheng didn't agree, and Dou Wei didn't force it. Just sell it well and let the other party know what you mean. There's no need to stalk him.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince..." Dugu Feng, who had been silent for the whole time, took a step forward and was about to bend down to salute, but suddenly felt unable to move. When he looked up, he saw Li Jiancheng holding his hand.

Li Jiancheng is so sweaty!

Dugu Feng is his future father-in-law. If Feng'er knew that her father saluted her, she might not be allowed to enter the room when they get married. Amen!

Of course, Li Jiancheng is a person who has traveled through time in the future and does not pay much attention to etiquette. However, people living in this era cannot pay attention to it because they are affected all the time. Especially people from big families, they are more concerned about this aspect.

Note, this does not mean that they should have more etiquette. But once the etiquette is not done well, it may bring disaster to the entire family.

Since he couldn't salute, Dugu Feng would simply be direct, since he was his future son-in-law anyway.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, there is someone I can recommend..."

"No matter who Master Dugu recommends, just tell him!"

"Weichen recommends Duguwen..."

Dugu Feng just said his name. Pei Ji and the others couldn't help but roll their eyes. After all the detours, he still has something to do with Li Jiancheng. Who is Dugu Wen? Dugu Feng's son, is this relationship not enough?

"Yeah!" Li Jiancheng nodded, but Dugu Wen hadn't seen him for a long time.

You must know that when Li Jiancheng traveled to the Tang Dynasty, when he was seven or eight years old, he went to a restaurant to play, and met Dugu Feng and Dugu Wen who were intercepted by gangsters, so he got to know them. Thinking of this, Li Jiancheng couldn't help but reveal a sweet smile.

"Ahem..." A dry cough awoke Li Jiancheng from his memories. When he looked up, he saw Li Yuan staring at him, as if to tell him to pay attention to his image.

"Since all the troops and horses are ready, everyone should go back and prepare, and take your positions. We will start at the agreed time in five days to give them a surprise."

Li Yuan did not say anything from beginning to end, but made the final summary - attack with the whole army!
Chapter completed!
