Chapter 18 Wang Haibin

A few days later.

"Now that I have obtained permission from my father, the things I prepared should come in handy."

Thinking of this, Li Taiyi's eyes became more determined. Everything is going at his pace, and he will definitely be able to change the key battle in the future.

But all this is not completely over yet——

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty also said that you should go see him."

Just when Li Taiyi secretly strengthened his belief, Gao Lishi's voice continued to come.

"I see."

Li Taiyi put down his military book and said.

Soon, Li Taiyi rode a bronze carriage and crossed the red palace walls to the Tai Chi Hall.

And just when Li Taiyi passed a high city wall, suddenly, a majestic voice came into his ears:

"A grown man should be a corpse wrapped in horse leather, make a name for himself, and make contributions to the border countries, so that he can live up to his life!"

For a moment, Li Taiyi raised his eyebrows, opened his slightly closed eyes, then lifted the curtain and looked over.

On the high city wall, a man wearing steel armor, who was obviously the leader of the Forbidden Army, looked at the rising sun with a melancholy look on his face.

There was peace in the capital. Apart from standing guard, there was basically nothing else for the Imperial Guards to do. It was okay to take a break while on duty in the palace.

There is nothing surprising in the Custodes.

But the leader of the Forbidden Army on the high wall still left a deep impression on Li Taiyi. It seemed that the other Forbidden Army were completely different.

"Commander Wang, although the capital is small, it can enjoy peace and quiet. Why do we have to go to the battlefield to make a name for ourselves?"

At this moment, behind the leader of the Forbidden Army, another Forbidden Army with the same strong aura climbed onto the city wall and spoke.

Neither of them paid attention to Li Taiyi behind them.

There are people coming and going in the palace, not only the court officials, but also the eunuchs and envoys who are on errands in the palace. The comings and goings of the imperial army who are stationed here every day are no longer strange. Even if they notice, they probably won't. Will pay attention.

——The two Imperial Guards just said a few words,

What's all the fuss about.

"Commander Bai, although you are right about peace in the capital, this is not a peaceful world. You and I have nothing to repay, but we curl up alone in this palace and live here for the rest of our lives. Isn't it a lifetime?" pity."

"Life is like this, living like a dog and a dog, what's the point?"

The commander Wang came back to his senses and looked a little sad.

He was transferred to the palace when he was just a teenager. He originally thought that one day, with the emperor approaching, he would be transferred to the border areas to learn from the great men's horse support and horse leather shrouding corpses. Unexpectedly, he was already almost twenty-seven, almost thirty, in this palace. After staying in the hospital for more than ten years, there is still no sign.

Seeing that this life is going to end in mediocrity and inaction.

Seeing this scene, Commander Bai didn't say anything, he just smiled and shook his head. He obviously knew Commander Wang in front of him very well.

Everyone has his own ambition!

Although I admire his ambition very much, for most of the Imperial Guards in the palace, being able to be distinguished for a lifetime is not a bad thing.

"Commander Wang, it's time to train your hands."

Commander Bai said.

This is the main purpose of his appearance here.

"Um."

Commander Wang sighed helplessly and stood up.

Although the king's order cannot be violated, he will never give up his ideals and revenge.

"Everyone, assemble!"

With a shout, the surroundings shook. In an instant, the Imperial Guards looked solemn and quickly gathered from all around. They gathered in front of the king commander. Their movements were uniform and the orders and prohibitions were followed. They had a shocking aura.

They looked completely different from the other imperial guards in the palace, with a more decisive and courageous air of conquering the battlefield.

"this--"

Seeing this scene from a distance, Li Taiyi's eyelids couldn't help but twitch.

He originally heard what the other party said and stopped the carriage out of curiosity, but the Forbidden Army in front of him left a deep impression on him.

"This man is not only a commander, but also has the ability to be a commander..."

Li Taiyi's eyelids twitched.

"Come here, help me ask, what is the name of that commander?"

Although Li Taiyi summoned an entourage.

The entourage didn't take long, and soon Li Taiyi knew the name of the commander, Wang Haibin!

Li Taiyi did not stop, wrote down the name Wang Haibin, and left quickly in a carriage.

Because for Li Taiyi, this is just an episode on the road.

The most important thing is to see my father.

…

In front of the Tai Chi Hall, Li Taiyi got off the carriage and looked at the palace in front of him. The feeling in his heart was completely different from the mood when he arrived at the Tai Chi Hall before.

The first time it was curiosity and awe, but this time it was confidence, even filled with a kind of arrogance before entering the army.

Soon, Li Taiyi entered the Tai Chi Hall along the white jade Danchi.

"Meet my father."

As soon as he entered the main hall, Li Taiyi saw Emperor Tang correcting the memorial behind the dragon carving table and immediately bowed.

"Xuan'er, no courtesy."

Seeing Li Taiyi, Tang Huang changed his usual seriousness, put down his pen, and waved to Li Taiyi.

Li Taiyi responded and arrived in front of Emperor Tang.

Tang Huanglong's eyes were like lamps. He carefully looked at Li Taiyi in front of him. After a while, he nodded and said in a deep voice:

"Xuan'er, you have really grown up. I have investigated the peace talks in the Turkic Empire. Since the return of the eldest prince Ashina Cui, there has been no progress in the Turkic Empire."

"It seems that your judgment is correct. There is indeed a problem with the Turkic peace talks."

"My son just did what he should do. Even without my son, the Turks' tricks would not be hidden from my father's eyes and ears."

Li Taiyi bowed and said respectfully.

"Um."

As Emperor Tang said, he quickly changed the topic and brought up business:

"Before, you wrote a seal for me and wanted to go to Uzang—"

As Tang Huang spoke, he pushed out a booklet. Obviously, this was Li Taiyi's booklet.

"I want to hear it with my own ears, why do you think this way?"

"My son has been unruly since he was a child. Fortunately, he did not go astray due to his father's guidance. He knew that he still had some shortcomings, so he hoped to go to the army to sharpen his skills. Moreover, at that time, His Majesty Gaozu and Taizong were about to conquer the world. As the Li family, we For blood, you also need to go on a horseback ride to live up to the blood flowing in your body."

Li Taiyi cupped his hands and said respectfully.

Seeing this scene, Tang Huang showed a hint of relief in his eyes and nodded.

"Xuan'er, you will go to the front line soon. As the Emperor of Tang Dynasty, I naturally hope that you will succeed immediately, but as a father, if you really have to charge into battle..., you must be careful."

Although Emperor Tang's face was expressionless, Li Taiyi could clearly hear the concern and was moved in his heart.

It is said that the royal family has no family ties. After all, the father cares about himself.

"In addition, you have grown up in the deep palace since childhood. During this trip to Uzang, I hope that you can really gain experience and gain something, and understand the real situation and situation of our Datang Dynasty, and live up to the experience flowing through you. Li Tang’s bloodline.”

"Yes, I understand."

Li Taiyi bowed and said respectfully.

"This trip to fight Uzang is far from simple. If you need anything, you can tell your father. As long as you can agree, I will agree to it."

Emperor Tang spoke again.

"Father, during this trip to Uzang, I also hope that I can do my best to share the worries of my father and the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, I hope that my father can allow me to form a personal army. , I want to bring a real army, imitate Emperor Taizong, and also make achievements on the border, and become famous on the battlefield!"

Li Taiyi said solemnly.

This is the main purpose of Li Taiyi coming to Tai Chi Hall to meet the saint.

Whether you are fighting on the battlefield or changing the world, you need to have a force of your own. This is what Li Taiyi has already figured out after his rebirth.

In this world, it is difficult to stand alone, and relying on the strength of one person is far from enough.

"Haha, okay, I'm right!"

Hearing Li Taiyi's words, Emperor Tang was very pleased.

"Thank you, Father!"

Li Taiyi was overjoyed.

And soon, Li Taiyi bowed to Emperor Tang and exited the Tai Chi Hall.

"We need to find some suitable people as soon as possible!"

On the way back, Li Taiyi raised his head, looked at the deep sky, and thought to himself.

Thinking is one thing, doing is another. There is a long way to go to establish a suitable force that truly belongs to you, and it is far from easy.

…

Returning to the Jade Dragon Palace, Li Taiyi immediately asked for a piece of paper containing the list of commanders of the imperial army. He sat behind the desk and read it carefully.

There were a large number of one hundred thousand forbidden troops. Each one was carefully selected and had great abilities. However, Li Taiyi only asked for a list with only commanders written on it. Apparently he wanted to find a general first.

——The commander of the Imperial Guards has been in the palace longer than ordinary Imperial Guards, and is more aware of the strength of each Imperial Army in the imperial city.

Therefore, selecting personal soldiers directly through this person's hands will take much less time. After all, the preparation time left for Li Taiyi was not as ample as imagined.

"Your Highness, Wang Haibin has arrived."

Just when Li Taiyi was carefully studying the list of commanders of the Imperial Army, with a gentle knock on the door, Gao Lishi's voice came in from outside the hall.

"Well, bring it in."

Li Taiyi put down the letter and said.

With a clang of armor, a burly figure strode in, each step heavy and powerful.

"General Wang Haibin of the Forbidden Army Youyi Mansion pays homage to His Highness."

Wang Haibin bowed.

"Get up."

After Li Taiyi said that, he immediately looked at it carefully.

The person in front of him was the commander-in-chief who expressed his ambition on the city wall when Li Taiyi was on his way to Taiji Hall a few days ago.

Although he just heard it casually at the time, when he wanted to select his own soldiers and got to know the person deeply, he got an unexpected surprise.

Wang Haibin's mansion is full of military books. Not only is he highly skilled in martial arts and has excellent abilities, but he also has the talent to lead and train troops.

The forbidden and strictly disciplined imperial army in the palace was the result of his small trial.

This person is definitely the talent he wants.

"What did your highness come to see me for?"

After Wang Haibin thanked him, he said respectfully.

"I'll give you a chance to fight the enemy on the battlefield. Are you willing to go with me?"

Li Taiyi didn't mince words and said directly.

In an instant, Wang Haibin suddenly raised his head and looked at Li Taiyi in surprise.

"In the near future, I will be ordered to go to Longxi to fight against the enemy. I see that you have the talent of a general, so I want to ask you, are you willing to be my personal general and go with me to fight against Uzang?"

Li Taiyi was not in a hurry and said calmly.

Hearing Li Taiyi's words, Wang Haibin suddenly came back to his senses.

He is just a small commander of the imperial army in the palace. Although he usually expresses his ambitions on the city wall, he feels that there is no place for him to be a hero.

But he never expected that the third prince summoned him and wanted to take him on an expedition!

The dream came so quickly that he was a little stunned.

"The general is willing!"

In just a moment, Wang Haibin came back to his senses and knelt down on one knee, looking extremely excited.

"Um!"

Li Taiyi nodded, with a smile on his lips.

He could feel that this man was really good-natured. He was excited not because of himself, but because he could finally serve the country.

"From the beginning of the sky, you will serve me from now on. In addition, I currently have insufficient troops, and my father has given me the right to act as appropriate. You are the commander of the Forbidden Army, and you should be the most familiar with the strength of each team of the Forbidden Army."

"The first task I give you is to identify outstanding talents from the Forbidden Army and form a personal army for me."

"I will obey your orders!"

Wang Haibin said without hesitation.

In a battlefield expedition, if you want to defeat your opponent, it is absolutely impossible without a well-trained army.

Even if the third prince didn't talk about this matter, he would still remind him.

After receiving the order, Li Taiyi quickly accepted the order and left.

…

Time flew by, and soon it was the day for Li Taiyi to go on an expedition.

At the west gate of the imperial city of the capital, there were a group of tightly-organized teams, totaling 3,000 people. The aura of each person was extremely powerful, especially the 3,000 people standing together, breathing as fast as one person, with that kind of aura that burned the sky and the sea.

This was an army mobilized from around the capital and sent to support Longxi.

When his father ordered him to recruit personal soldiers, the second prince Li Chengyi seemed to be dissatisfied and kept obstructing him, restricting the number of people Li Taiyi could recruit.

But Li Taiyi didn't care, because - his philosophy has always been to value the essence rather than the quantity.

Horse hooves clattered, and soon, a tall figure appeared from far away, it was Wang Haibin.

"Your Highness, the army has been assembled. In addition, I have selected ten teams from the Forbidden Army, with ten people in each team, a total of one hundred people to form Your Highness's personal army. The preliminary training has been completed these days."

Wang Haibin got off his horse and bowed towards Li Taiyi.
