Chapter 719 Response
It is nonsense to have an illegitimate child or not, but it is a land of two capitals, which is not trivial.
Luoyang, the eastern capital, the heart of the world, the thoroughfare, convenient exchanges, the usual season, the geographical advantage is called the world, even in troubled times, if there is a male lord living in it, it should also be able to make a difference.
Xijing Chang'an, the mountains and rivers are dangerous, the people are fierce, so many dynasties before chose it as the location of the Beijing Division, it seems that it is the first in the world, condescending, offensive and defensible geographical location.
In other words, Li Tang took the lead in going south to occupy Chang'an, which can be described as a good move, whether in terms of timing or luck, it is a good work that others cannot envy.
Needless to say, just like now, once Xiao Mian is weak, he will immediately have the worry of being broken by Li Tang, this is the advantage of occupying Guanxi, and Wang Shichong died in a battle this year, if it weren't for Li Po on the side to check and fill in the gaps, otherwise Li Tang would probably have rushed out of Tongguan at this time and settled in the eastern capital.
Entering the world, retreating can also sit and watch the world, the camera moves, this is Xijing Chang'an, the people of the time are more inclined to luck said, in fact, the same way, nothing more than this.
Fighting the world is a mixture of strength, strategy and luck, and almost all of them are indispensable.
And Li Tang's luck is indeed unique, I won't talk about it before, just say that now, the overall situation of the world has gradually turned bad for Li Tang.
Li Po took the Jin land, copied the back road of the Li family, not to mention, but also cut off the possibility of Li Yuan's alliance with the Turks, Li Liang and Liang Shi both dragged Li Tang's more than 100,000 troops in the northwest, and Xiao Mo was also entangled with the soldiers and horses led by Li Xiaogong in Kuizhou, so that Shuzhong could not settle down, and became Li Tang's granary and recruiting place.
Wang Shichong of Henan is also eyeing Kansai......
But this year alone, Wang Shichong was defeated under Tongguan first, and became Li Po's army alone to face Li Tang on the front line from Tongguan to Feng Yi and Hancheng.
That's not all, Li Liang died of illness in Guzang, after the chaos, it is still unknown what Xiliang will become, and then Xiao Mo made a faint move, and it seems that it is only a matter of time before he betrays his relatives.
This is like loosening Li Tang layer by layer, when his hands and feet are completely stretched, Li Po can't imagine what kind of bad situation it will cause once people everywhere flock to Tang.
Yes, Li Po actually never thought that he would lose to the Li family and his son in the battle array, and the facts also proved that the combat effectiveness of the Tang Army was remarkable, but it was really inferior to the Jin Army.
If there is a suitable battlefield where everyone starts to fight with all their might, Li Po thinks that even if there are many people on the other side, he should have a ninety percent chance of winning.
But now the situation is so helpless, Li Tang is shrinking in Kansai, and the benefits are constantly being sent, and at this time, he doesn't know that Li Liang has gone to see the Buddha of the Western Heavens, otherwise, he will be even more excited.
Therefore, Li Tang's advantage has always been clear in Li Po's opinion, that is, Li Yuan's family background and reputation, which is Li Tang's most terrifying weapon.
When Li Tang was at a disadvantage, this weapon could not show much power, but once someone among the princes dropped the chain, such as Wang Shichong and now Xiao Miao, the consequences would definitely be a chain reaction.
Many of Wang Shichong's subordinates voted for Tongguan, which is actually a clear proof that when Xiao Mo can't effectively control the situation, his subordinates will never be loyal to Xiao Miao, and they will not vote for him as the king of Han in groups.
This is actually the most terrifying place for Li Yuan, who occupies Xijing......
The New Year is approaching, Li Po still has a lot of things to do, the officials have been driven by him, and at the end of the year, it is time to rest, so that people can take a breather.
Next year, it will be another critical year, Li Po feels that he has experienced many such years, I don't know whether he is used to it or numb, anyway, his mood does not rise and fall too much, and he has a temperament that does not change his face when Mount Tai collapses in front of him, which makes him quite complacent.
And next year, he planned to send troops to the west, even if he lacked some Xiao Miao's help, as long as it was not delayed until the year after next or the year after tomorrow, even if Xiao Mi died violently, it would be impossible for Li Tang to turn over overnight.
Because the battle situation in Shuzhong has been stalemate for a long time, Li Tang has not been able to get out so easily, he is working hard, Jackie Chan is an adult, just look at the battle next year, if it doesn't work, damn it, this day will not pass, if he can't say it, he will have to smash the pot and sell iron, and fight to the death with Li Tang in the middle of winter.
As for whether it will be cheaper for Dou Jiande at that time, or which other son of a bitch will raise it, let God decide.
In fact, when he gritted his teeth and counted the princes down, he calmed down and thought about it again, but he felt that it was not only a disadvantage for Xiao Mo to be weak.
Because of all kinds of indications, Xiao Mian is more greedy, and he has done a lot of things this year, not only in Kuizhou and Li Tang all the year round, but also in the south, he quietly beat Lin Shihong to the head of the rat, and then what about it...... This guy sent troops into Henan to watch the eastern capital.
It seems that he has a great advantage without much effort, thinking of this, Li Po also sighed secretly, people in this year, there are really no fuel-efficient lamps.
But then again, it is not without benefits in this way, Xiao Miao's threat has dropped to the lowest point, because just like Xiao Mo can't believe him as the king of Han, after he occupies Hongnong, he must also beware of Xiao Miao's northward movement.
Now it's okay, Xiao Mo can ignore it, just concentrate on facing Li Yuan.
And since Xue Ju's defeat, he was the one who fought with Li Tang the most, and almost resisted most of Li Tang's offensive.
Xiao Milling is more like a scoundrel who rushed into someone's house, was punched and kicked but dragged the door bolt to death, and kept throwing torches into people's houses.
Li Po also knew what kind of abacus Xiao Milling was playing, looking at his cowering appearance, no different from the hyena on the grassland, drooling with a mouth full of saliva, and generally patrolling beside the carrion corpse, waiting for the opportunity to speak.
And his mortal enemy is always his kind, not the jackals, tigers and leopards outside, in other words, Lin Shihong in the south is the person Xiao Mo needs to face seriously, not Li Yuan.
The result is also obvious, in the north, Xiao Mo will always belong to the one who picks up cheap, and his focus should not be on Jiangbei in a short time.
…………………………
The cold wind was howling outside, and Li Po was thinking quietly in the study, at this time he was as quiet as a mountain, but the belly of the mountain was full of magma waiting to erupt at any time.
I don't know how much time has passed, Li Po called for humanity: "Come on, go find Liu Jingsheng and General Liu to come and see me." ”
Liu Jingsheng came quickly, wrapped in the wind and cold into it, and immediately hammered his chest to salute, Li Po waved his hand and said: "Okay, sit down and talk, drink some hot tea first, warm your body." ”
Liu Jingsheng looked at Li Po's expression, fortunately, he didn't like it or was angry, it was very reassuring, he had been in Jinyang for more than half a year, and unlike other generals who were in a hurry to make contributions, he was still stable.
Because he is a very self-aware person, the right leader of the Han Wangfu, when he enters and exits, he leads the Han Wang's army, and he is very satisfied to be able to sit in such a position, because he feels that in terms of courage and loyalty, he is not as good as Luo Shixin and others, in terms of qualifications, and there are many people such as Wei Chi, Bu Qun, etc., and the family background cannot be compared with the brothers of Wei Chixin, and when it comes to the ability to lead the troops, the new ones are as many as possible, and they can't show what he Liu Jingsheng is, that is, he is not lagging behind in military merits.
Therefore, he thinks that he has today's status, and he should be considered the top to be able to sit on an equal footing with the generals of the Wei Mansion, and at the same time, he also believes that with the temperament of His Royal Highness the King of Han, he will not treat them badly, so he stays very honest in the Han Palace, and he never does much.
Down-to-earth people are more likely to get opportunities...... Well, that's not very accurate, and even if they get the chance, most of them are drudgery.
After taking a sip of tea, Liu Jingsheng said: "The king summoned the last general to come, do you have any orders?" ”
Li Po nodded, and directly handed him the letter sent back by Zhang Lun, "Let's take a look at this first." ”
Liu Jingsheng took the letter and grinned secretly, he could read and write, but ...... There are too many words, and after chewing carefully for a long time, Liu Jingsheng's eyes drew circles, put down the letter sneeringly, and looked at Li Po innocently with blinking eyes.
It took a few words to pop up for a long time, "it seems to be ...... Xiao Milling ...... What's wrong? ”
Looking at him like that, Li Po gritted his back molars, damn it, after so many years, Lao Tzu always said that you read some books, read some books, and Lao Tzu himself is annoyed, and you are all in the ear?
glared at Liu Jingsheng viciously, Liu Jingsheng smiled and was silent, but he still knew in his heart that this was a letter that he couldn't read, which made the king angry, but he also muttered in his heart, if you want to say that I am better than Luo Shixin, right?
Well, he's really going to be ......
At this point, Li Po didn't bother to talk nonsense with him anymore, many of the generals under him were as "unenterprising" as Liu Jingsheng, and this atmosphere would not be able to change for a while.
"You immediately set off to Hongnong, when you pass by Xihe, take Xihe County and don't drive Liu Chaozong, you may not be able to hurry as soon as possible, after you arrive in Hongnong, you two don't have to do anything else, just give me a careful inquiry into the situation in the south, and report to me at any time."
"By the way, Xie Zheng was ordered to inspect the people's situation and just left, bring it all with you, the Xie family is a well-known family in the south, so it should be of some use."
"Besides, it is to send an order to Zhang Lun and others, and send people to see if the people in the Eastern Capital are starving to death, and from time to time we should send some grain and grass over, so as to save people from saying that we will not save us when we die...... Hmph, if possible, pass the word to Wang Shiyun, haven't all the family members of those people who voted for Tang have been killed, right? If Wang Shiyun can release people, let's take them all, and it will be useful in the future. ”
After a few words, Liu Jingsheng was stunned when he heard it, and quietly looked out the window, damn it, when you go out in this weather, won't even your soul have to be frozen? Why am I so unlucky......
