Chapter 16: The decision to go west
The more he understands military affairs, Pei Min understands that there is no definite outcome in a war, and not whoever is strong will win.
Take the well-known Three Kingdoms as an example, the first art of war is none other than Cao Cao.
But Cao Cao's defeats are not many, Xu Rong, Lu Bu, Zhou Yu, Ma Chao, and Liu Bei have all defeated him.
Can it be said that Cao Cao is inferior to the above people?
The battlefield is ever-changing, and any factor is the key to victory or defeat.
It is by no means a three-dimensional and five-dimensional data that can be reflected in later games.
Wang Zhongsi is indeed a rare famous general in the world, brave and steady. But his character is too stubborn and square, and the things he decides, the nine cows can't pull back.
Why did he fall out with Li Longji in history?
Isn't it because Li Longji is so happy with his achievements, intending to exchange the lives of his soldiers for merit and storm Shibao City?
Wang Zhonghei just didn't obey, he was unwilling to exchange the lives of soldiers for his own merits, and he disobeyed orders to a low level.
caused Li Longji to be dissatisfied with Wang Zhonghei, and also caused his tragedy.
Wang Zhongsi is good at military strategy, but he is slightly rigid in the handling of interpersonal relationships.
The relationship between the Western Regions is complicated, and in the face of tens of thousands, or even 200,000 or more Arab troops, if you want to truly exert the full strength of the Western Regions, it is indispensable to get the support of the countries of the Western Regions.
In this regard, Wang Zhonghei is young, far less old than Mosley Massa.
And although Wang Zhonghei is a little extraordinary, which of the civil and military under Pei Min is an idle person?
Gao Xianzhi, Fugu Huaien, Feng Changqing, Zhang Xiaosong, Cui Xiyi, which one is not more qualified than Wang Zhonghe?
Will they drop everything and obey Wang Zhonghe's words?
Pei Min didn't have this certainty.
In addition to him, it is not easy for outsiders to completely convince them of the arrogant soldiers of Hexi and Longyou.
Once the cooperation is not good, it will also become an unstable factor and cause a bad impact.
On the other hand, there is no such problem in Mosley Massa.
Wang Zhonghe's status is not at the same level as Mosley Massa, even if he is only slightly better, but the other parties are also at a disadvantage.
Pei Min believes that with Wang Zhonghei, the situation in the Western Regions will not collapse, but it will not be easy to completely defeat Mosley Massa.
After all, Mosley Massa's hand has already disrupted the Western Regions and taken the lead.
Even if you go out on your own, you may not be able to win with confidence.
For a moment, Pei Min was a little hesitant, it was the best choice for him to go to the Western Regions to preside over the overall situation, but could he really leave Chang'an here?
Pei Min couldn't make up his mind for the time being, and planned to wait for new news, so he made arrangements first.
Wang Zhongsi led the soldiers and horses of Qinghai Lake to the middle road of Qiang, and went straight to the Western Regions to stabilize the situation, and all the Hexi troops entered the Western Regions and temporarily obeyed Wang Zhongsi's dispatch.
The Longyou Army advanced to Hexi, took over the idle defense of Hexi, and waited for a new order.
Shuofang Jiedu made An Sishun and Hedong Jiedu make Gai Jiayun withdraw to the original defense area, in case there is a small night to take advantage of the fire to rob.
Pei Min gave orders one by one, and his sophisticated and resolute attitude gave many uneasy ministers of civil and military affairs inexplicable confidence.
Li Yan's uneasiness also calmed down, and there was a feeling that as long as Pei Min was there, the world would be safe.
At the end of the court meeting, Pei Min took Li Yi, Wang Hui, Du Xian, and Song Jing to Shangshu Province for a meeting.
As for the other ministers, Pei Min had no intention of inviting at all.
In military affairs, Pei Min has always been reluctant to pay attention to the advice of laymen. Song Jing was not called to listen to his opinions, but he was politically experienced and could take care of some things that could not be taken into account politically.
"Arabia is menacing this time, the situation in the Western Regions is complicated, I intend to go to the Western Regions to sit in charge of the overall situation, do you have any ideas?"
Wang Hui said in a deep voice: "I don't think it's right here, Your Majesty has just ascended the throne, the temple is unstable, and Chang'an has the current stability, all because of the prestige of the county king." If the king of the county goes to the Western Regions, above the temple, I am afraid that there will be another wave. ”
Du Xian served in the Western Regions in his early years, and he knew the importance of the Western Regions, and said: "The Western Regions cannot be abandoned with the current situation. Once the Western Regions fall, it will be extremely difficult to regain it. Once the Arabs occupy the Western Regions, the trade routes of the Western Regions will be controlled. With the loss of the trade routes in the Western Regions, the economy of our DPRK will be greatly affected. Liangzhou, the third largest economic metropolis in my country, will also decline, and the impact will be too great......"
Song Jing also said at this time: "The old man also thinks that Chang'an is inseparable from the king of the county, and the king of the county cannot be separated lightly." It's just that the old man doesn't understand the military, so it's hard to say anything. Except for the king of the county, no one in our dynasty can turn the situation around? ”
Pei Min shook his head and said: "Mosley Massa is one of the few generals in the world, his field level is the best in the world, in the past I was in a defensive advantage, and I fought extremely hard." It's not like I don't have people who can resist it, if it's an ordinary time, Feng Changqing and Gao Xianzhi can deal with it. It's just that now Mosley Massa has seized the flaw in the Western Regions, besieged and expanded the city, and occupied the initiative in the battle. The defense is no longer good, and we must take the initiative to find the Arabs for a decisive battle before the fall of the city. Once the city falls and many of its kings are taken prisoner, the kingdoms of the Western Regions will be threatened and will in turn become our enemies. ”
"Even if Mosley Massa can't capture Tuozhi City in the short term, the situation we face will not be easy."
Li Yi also saw through the essence.
"Not bad!" Pei Min said: "The countries of the Western Regions, the situation is complicated, and the kings of various countries have been trapped in the place of life and death for a long time, how can there be no turmoil? Now the only thing we can do is to attack, fight to the death with the Arabs as fast as possible, and save the kings of the trapped Western Regions. They surrounded the point and sent reinforcements, waiting for work, but we were forced to attack, and the disadvantage was obvious. Gao Xianzhi can't cope with this situation, and it's difficult for loyal heirs. Li Xiang's talent is slightly enough, but the soldiers in the West do not know the generals, and the generals do not know the soldiers, so they cannot exert their strength. Come to think of it, I have to do it. ”
Song Jing proposed: "That is the case, the lesser of the two evils. It is better to wait for the news from the West to be conveyed before thinking about it. ”
Pei Min agreed.
Soon the situation in the Western Regions came again.
The situation is more serious than Pei Min imagined, I don't know why, the four ancient kingdoms of the Western Regions, Qiuzi, Yanqi, Khotan, Shule and Zhaowu, are all within the invitation, and more than 20 kings of Da Bolu and Xiao Bolu are now trapped in Tuzhi City.
The dragons of the Western Regions have no leader, and they have begun to mess up.
This move of Arabia hit the dead end of the Western Regions.
Pei Min finally decided to go to the Western Regions in person and meet Arabia again.
As for the affairs in Beijing, Pei Min entrusted Li Yi, Song Jing, and Zhang Jiuling, and took the three of them to meet Li Yan.
Li Yi was in charge of armaments, Song Jing was in charge of officials, and Zhang Jiuling was in charge of administration.
Li Yi was strictly not a member of Pei Min's party, so in order to make it more convenient, Pei Min specially invited Li Yi, Wang Hui, and Du Xian to come to the house, and asked Wang Hui and Du Xian to assist Li Yi.
Before leaving, Pei Min also had a meeting with Gao Lishi, and he was not worried about anything else, but he was worried that Li Heng would make trouble, so he also made arrangements.
