Chapter 439 Thoughts

"Recently, everyone has asked for orders, wanting to take advantage of the victory to go south and fight the enemy again, what do you think?"

The generals gathered in Jiexiu, but Li Po saw only two people, Wei Chigong and Bu Qun, who built the left and right guard mansions, that is, added a level above the generals, so there was no need to talk to the chaotic audience like before.

This is one of the benefits of the Wei Mansion, Li Po will save a lot of trouble, just need to discuss with Wei Chi Gong and Bu Qun, and then they will naturally go to talk to the generals, and when there is something below, the Wei Mansion can also filter up a layer first, and then send it to Li Po for him to dispose of.

With the expansion of the army, this kind of hierarchy must be established sooner or later, otherwise, even if Li Po is exhausted, he will not be able to bow to everything.

Of course, now that only two Wei Mansions have been built, there are fewer voices below, and it is easy to cause the dictatorship of the generals.

It's just that now Li Po is enjoying the benefits brought by the Wei Mansion, and what are the disadvantages of the Wei Fu system, which is not reflected in most of them at the beginning of the establishment of the Wei Mansion.

Listening to Li Poyi's question, Bu Qun and Wei Chigong were mentally prepared.

And the order in which they spoke seemed to have been fixed, always the first in the group and the last in the lieutenant.

Bu Qun's speech still tastes like that, but now that he has opened his house and is the leader of the generals, his speech and demeanor are somewhat restrained compared with the past.

"The Lord is wise and far-sighted, and the revelation is what they can measure? It's just that the last general feels that now the military spirit is indeed available, and it is inevitable that the morale will be reduced after being here for many days...... Could it be that the Lord has other plans? ”

Li Po smiled and nodded to the group, "You can talk more now than before, put it in the past, you must have said what I want you to do, you will do it, but now you also know that it is rare to ask for your life for the generals." ”

Bu Qun couldn't help but boast, and immediately smiled, and said again and again: "The last general has not changed, and it is still the same as at the beginning, only the main general is the first to look forward, and there is no other word." ”

Wei Chigong tilted his head slightly and looked at Bu Qun with disdain, but although he was not used to Bu Qun's flattering appearance, he had to admit that Bu Qun was right this time.

The army won a battle, the loss of troops was not much, and the morale was high, but the troops were here for many days, if others led the troops, it would be enough, and the general himself led the troops in front of the enemy...... That must be something else.

He didn't wait for Buqun to say everything, so he interjected: "The general leads the troops to have unpredictable opportunities, and there will be no trouble in the future, the soldiers in front of the army dare to die, the armor is sharp, and the food and grass are abundant, but the troops do not move forward, and the last general and others really can't guess the mind of the general, and please make it clear to the general." ”

Well, this time it was Bu Qun's turn to roll his eyes over there, and his heart said that this guy was too shameless, and almost repeated what he just said.

Of course, the two of them are not stupid, in fact, they both understand a truth.

As long as the general personally leads the troops, they have suggestions and counselors, and there is no need to say much about the rest.

Neither their own power nor the authority of the Wei Mansion can influence the decision of the person in front of them at all, and this situation will not change in the current army, or it can be said that this situation will not change for a long time in the future.

Li Po bowed his head, gradually restrained his smile, and said in a deep voice: "When I started the army from Jinyang, I saw that the army was very prosperous, and I also wanted to be like Li Yuan, the Duke of Tang Guogong, and go down to the east of the river in one go, at least with the Yellow River and Taixing, so as to hold on to the heroes." ”

"From Jinyang to Jiexiu, the situation is not the same as I thought."

Li Po shook his head, and his brows furrowed, "We waited for the Heng'an Zhen army to start in Yunnei and be the enemy of the Turks, so the tactics were all based on the infantry army as the shield and the cavalry army as the blade, so that we could fight against the Turks without falling behind." ”

"Now the southward battle, the situation is very different, Jiexiu battle, it seems that it is only two days, and the city has been trapped, in fact, from the beginning of the army to Kejiexiu, how many times did it take?"

"The cavalry arrived first, and waited here for four days before the infantry arrived, although these had already been calculated clearly, and there was no mistake in the middle, but it was not only more important than the sharpness of the cavalry, but also the benefits of the infantry army, between the left and right swings, it was inevitable that there would be miscalculations in battle."

"So I thought, once the army is too fast, the infantry army is taken advantage of by the enemy, and the grain and grass are heavily trapped in the enemy's hands, no matter how elite the cavalry is, the army will be discouraged, and it will inevitably be a thousand miles of worry."

Hearing this, Wei Chigong and Bu Qun both looked at each other.

If others listen to it, they must feel reasonable, but in the ears of these generals who are accustomed to conscription and killing, the taste is a little wrong, and no matter how you listen to it, it looks like a cowardice.

The army is nearly 100,000, with 30,000 elite cavalry on the side, how can the infantry be easily defeated by the enemy?

The two rivals saw the surprise in each other's eyes for a moment, and then they looked away in unison, and Bu Qun's head nodded again and again and echoed: "The general is thoughtful, I can't wait, and the last general also feels that the infantry army is indeed a bit cumbersome." ”

Wei Chigong was so angry that he couldn't step on this flatterer with one foot.

However, before he could speak, Li Po had already glared at Bu Qun and said: "These concerns are all speculation, if these troops are stopped here just because of these big victories, do you say that I am worried about the sky or afraid that the Tang army will not succeed?" ”

Bu Qun shrank his head suddenly, and sighed in his heart, this person really can't be measured by common sense, the words are all said by you, why is it wrong for me again?

Wei Chigong then picked up the stone next to him and began to throw it into the well, "What the general said is extremely true, if there is no infantry army to support it, how can the army be broken in just two days?" If General Bu's words are spread, the generals will be suspicious of each other, and it will inevitably shake the morale of the army, so General Bu is also asked to be cautious. ”

Bu Qun didn't dare to collide with Li Po, but he was not afraid of what Wei Chigong said, and immediately sneered at each other: "In front of the general, we want to know everything and say everything, what are we afraid of spreading?" Could it be that General Wei Chi will be the one who delivers the message? ”

Looking at the two henchmen generals who were ready to pinch first when they raised their hairs, Li Po was a little skeptical that it was a bit hasty to choose the two of them to build the Wei Mansion in the first place, and then let the two of them read more books......

No way, the two guys are not from a very good background, if they change Wei Chixin, Xue Wanche and others, they will definitely not attack each other in front of him, of course, if they change Luo Shixin, they will definitely look different, that is to say, but others will have to move their fists and feet.

Li Po patted the table case and quieted down the two guys who were glaring at each other, and then said with some sternness: "Speak to me well, do you want me to be cut off because of your words to be at ease?" ”

Under Li Po's forced gaze, the two of them stopped talking.

Li Po didn't want to say anything, the grievances between the two guys have been around for a long time, and it was also caused by his intentional or unintentional connivance, both of which he himself and the two in front of him actually knew it.

And today, if the two guys don't stare at each other a few times when they meet and choke a few words, it is estimated that even others will feel abnormal.

The formation of factions in the military is sometimes so helpless.

"In addition to some concerns about the formation of troops, do you think that if my troops are too strong, how should the Tang army respond?"

Or the people Buqun suffered a lot of blows, and the recovery was fast, but after thinking about it, he immediately responded: "If you change to the last general, you will definitely stick to the ...... for help."

Listening to him, Wei Chigong was not to be outdone, "Out of the Bird Mouse Valley is Linfen, although the Tang army reinforcements are in Jiangjun, but if my army moves forward, it should not be difficult to surround it." ”

Speaking of this, the two finally understood what Li Po meant, Wei Chigong hesitated for a moment, and then followed his words and said, "Jiangzhou Dacheng...... If it weren't for Jiexiu, Li Shentong, and Pei Lin were all Li Yuan's confidants, if they were in the army, it would not be Li Zhongwen, Jiang Baoyi and others who could be compared, and the will of the general...... The last general generally understood that if he besieged but did not attack, wouldn't it be right to take advantage of the emptiness in the east of the river and divide his troops to sweep around? ”

Li Po glanced at Wei Chigong with satisfaction, from a city gate official to a leading general, the span is about to catch up with him Li Po, historical celebrities are different.

"I'm not Tang Guogong Li Yuan......"

Li Po's tone relaxed suddenly, in fact, after these days, he has thought very clearly, and he will not waver easily.

"Can people cling to me?" Li Po shook his head and said with a smile: "What you said about dividing the troops and plundering them is just wandering among the countryside, or if someone is afraid of my military might and surrenders after opening the city, can I still divide the troops one by one?" ”

"In this way, it is just like the Turks going south, plundering the four realms, what they have gained, there must be some, but how far is it from our original intention?"

"In that way, apart from making the people of Jindi resentful and fearing me like a tiger, the benefits are minimal."

"On the other day, the Tang army went north, and the people of Jindi will inevitably hear the scenery and compete with me as enemies. Moreover, there are Linfen and Jiangzhou Jiancheng, and it is difficult to pull out between eagerness, so what is the purpose of this war? Just to besiege the Tang army, in Jiangzhou, Linfen and other places? ”

In front of this series of questions, Wei Chigong and Bu Qun unconsciously sat up straight, and their brows were furrowed.

It can be said that although the two of them have built a mansion, they have not yet fully entered the role, and they are still leading the battlefield and the mentality of fighting first is not too commensurate with their status.

Their eyes are still staring at the two armies fighting and receiving awards for meritorious service, no different from other generals, in other words, their power has reached a new height, but their strategic vision has not yet kept up.

Li Po is different, and he has already completed the change of mentality, and his understanding of the war is more clear and thorough, that is to say, the success or failure of the battle for dominance is not just a victory on the battlefield can be completely achieved.
