Li Linfu looked at Pei Min and said, "The king of Tocharian is called Umogan, and this person's subordinates know it very well. He doesn't have any ambitions, he is the kind of king who is content with the status quo, very old-fashioned, with a stubborn character, guarding the one-third of an acre of Tocharian land. That's why I chose Turgish over Tocharo. ”

This is also Pei Min's biggest headache.

If Wu Mogan is profit-oriented and ambitious, Pei Min can also operate from it to lure him with strategy.

But Umogan is a stubborn stone, recognizing the truth of death.

When the Arabs came to their aid, they rightfully stood on the Arab side.

And Umogan has no ambition, as long as the Arabs do not treat him badly, he will follow the Arabs without regrets.

The importance of Umogan, Pei Min understands, how can Mosley Massa not know?

Where would Mosley Massa be short-sighted enough to treat Tochar badly and Umogan badly?

Therefore, the alliance between Arabia and Tocharian is monolithic and difficult to shake.

Pei Min didn't hide it, and said: "I have the intention to instigate the relationship between Arabia and Tocharo, but in the face of Umogan's stubborn character, I can't do it." As for the Arab side, they don't care...... So I'm very curious here, you, what is the way to make Tocharian anti-Arab and submit to my Tang Dynasty. ”

Li Linfu said: "What Pei Shuai can't do, how can his subordinates have the ability to do it." It's just that the subordinates have noticed a detail and can use it. After the investigation of his subordinates, Tocharian mainly lived on animal husbandry, and this has been the case for hundreds of years. ”

Pei Min said: "Most of the residents of Tocharo are descendants of Gu Dawan and Wusun, and they are all clans who are good at raising horses and animal husbandry. It is also recorded in the Book of Sui: Tocharian country, 500 miles west of the Green Mountains, lives together with Rutan. In the southwest of Dawan, in the south of Jufei water. The big moon clan divides its land, lives in the north of the water, the land is fertile, there are divine horses in its caves, and every year of the herding horses in the caves, it will produce famous horses. It's funny to say that all the countries in the Western Regions have made their fortunes because of the trade routes in the Western Regions, but Tocharo is still indifferent and alone. Is it stupid, or is it insistence? Want to keep a little bit of your ancestors? ”

Pei Min is a little disdainful of Tocharo's closed-door style.

Compared with Tocharo, Pei Min admires Shiguo's courage very much.

Shiguo was originally the hometown of Dawan and a place for animal husbandry, but their king gave up the things of his ancestors and encouraged the people of the whole country to engage in business, so that the country was rich and everyone lived and worked in peace and contentment.

The wealth of the stone country is the best in the Western Regions.

Of course, it is also because of this that in history, Gao Xianzhi would be obsessed with wealth and sack Shiguo......

Li Linfu continued: "No matter what Wu Mogan has in mind, his style is an opportunity for us to take advantage of. The subordinates have studied the atmosphere of the Arab army in these days, and their military discipline is far inferior to ours, and not only that, but many times it is very loose. ”

Pei Min nodded in agreement, poor military discipline does not mean poor combat effectiveness.

Pei Min remembered that he had analyzed the details of this aspect back then.

Armies that have always been strong usually have one of two factors.

The first is military discipline.

Orders are forbidden, and the combat effectiveness of an army with strict military discipline will not be bad.

The Longyou and Hexi armies are exemplars.

Another factor is the soldier thief, the thief in the skin of the army, they do all kinds of evil, but as long as they go to the battlefield, they are outlaws who are not afraid of death.

The Arab Quartet fought wars, fed war with war, and made a lot of war profits, relying on this kind of culture of soldiers and thieves.

Defeated, nothing, but defeated, money, women, everything.

Li Linfu continued: "My subordinates dare to ask, how many soldiers and horses, how many war horses, and how many cattle are there in the Arab army this time? ”

Pei Min had already memorized the melons and said: "The army is currently less than 200,000, about 80,000 military horses, about 130,000 pack horses, 20,000 camel cavalry, and more than 50 war elephants...... As far as I know, there are only 20,000 fighting camels in Arabia. He's bringing in all his old bottoms......"

Li Linfu reminded: "Then Pei Shuai knows how much forage is needed for 210,000 horses?" How much forage do 20,000 camels consume? How much forage do more than 50 war elephants have to eat in a day? ”

Suddenly!

Pei Min Huo Ran got up and looked at Li Linfu with a little shock, Huo Ran was cheerful.

Seeing Pei Min's expression, Li Linfu also knew that he had figured out the key to the front and back, and said: "Nomadic nomads, why do nomads follow water and grass to live? Water and grass are their lifeblood, in order to fight for a river, a piece of grassland, those barbarians on the grassland, fighting are much more fierce than us. Pei Shuai must know that many times, nomads would rather be cold and starve than eat the grass in the meadow. They have to prepare for the coming year, and if they eat the grass cleanly, the growth of the grass in the next few years will be greatly affected. The subordinates remembered that Pei Shuai used the words 'ecological environment' to describe this situation. ”

The most posterity, Pei Min knows better than anyone else: the progress of human beings is often self-inflicted.

Pei Min's control of the Jiuqu land in Hexi specifically put forward the policy of protecting the ecological environment, so that the horse herding supervisor is responsible for cultivating military horses, but also to do a good job in protecting the grassland, rather than overdrawing the future of the Jiuqu land in Hexi.

"The subordinates believe that the Arabs will not pay attention to such trivial details. Their livestock, soldiers, will have a bad impact on Tochar's ecology. If the king of Tocharia, Umogan, was a long-term man, he would not have counted any of this. Umogan was a stubborn rock, and when he realized that the waters of the Tocharian rivers were polluted by Arabia, and the pastures of Tocharian were fatally destroyed by Arabia...... Will Umogan still support the Arabs without complaint? The subordinates don't believe it, everyone has selfish intentions, and once it touches the bottom line of Umogan. Arabia, Tocharian, even the strongest alliances will break down. At that time, Pei Shuai will prescribe the right medicine, and will there be a reason why he will not work for Pei Shuai? ”

Pei Min closed his eyes and thought about Li Linfu's plan, and the more he thought about it, the more feasible he felt.

Li Linfu may not know how to do military affairs, but his ability to perceive people's hearts is really terrifying.

Eat the character of the Tocharian king Umogan......

If it really comes to that point, Pei Min is fully convinced that Umogan is very likely to be anti-Arab for the sake of his country's future. At that time, they were conservatively estimated to have reduced tens of thousands of casualties......

It's just that......

A trace of pain appeared on Pei Min's face, Li Linfu's plan can be described as a miracle, but it will take a long time to implement.

The city was surrounded by Arabia, and no one knew what was going on in the city.

How much grain there is, how many soldiers and horses, and how long Feng Changqing and Yan Gaoqing can hold out are all unknown.

Once Li Linfu's plan is adopted, it is almost equivalent to giving up Feng Changqing and Yan Gaoqing in Tuozhi City......

On the one hand, it is the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers, and on the other hand, it is your own beloved general, the best confidant!

How to choose!
