On weekdays, Li Su is a person who understands etiquette, treats elders, especially the elders he respects, he has always been respectful, very respectful, Niu Jinda is Li Su's crown conferrer, in this era, it can almost be equated with his father's status, Li Su has always respected him, but today he is unprecedentedly rude.

There is no way, urgent illness needs to be treated with fierce medicine, Li Su saw that Niu Jinda was exhausted, this defeat not only killed and injured more than 20,000 soldiers, but also made the general of the country discouraged and lost all his fighting spirit.

So Li Su had to use this rude method to provoke Niu Jinda, he believed that as long as a person can still be angry, this person can still be saved, anger can awaken the blood in the bottom of the silent heart, the man has recovered his blood, any failure will only laugh, and then clean up the mood and start over.

Thoughts are thoughts, seeing that Niu Jinda was really angry, Li Su was still a little stunned, after all, he was a general, he had killed people like hemp in his life, and his anger exploded, and naturally burst out with a murderous aura, and his hideous appearance made Li Su couldn't help but take two steps back.

"Uh, Uncle Niu is angry, the kid just asks casually, you take care of your injuries, don't be angry, the kid retires......" Li Su immediately confessed, as for the veteran who was discouraged or something, huh...... It's good to be alive, Lao Niu should retire at this age, I believe that Li Shimin has prepared a generous pension insurance for him, so don't worry about going to the battlefield to fight and kill when you are old, and it's not good to teach bad children.

"Come back to the old man! Are you kid crazy? How dare you teach the old man a lesson! Dare to take a step back, believe it or not, the old man hung you on the flagpole with one hand? ”

Obviously, the enraged Niu Jinda was not so easy to dismiss.

Li Su had no choice but to stand still, and then look left and right, pretending to look at the scenery.

Niu Jinda gasped and frowned for a long time, it seemed that he had pulled the arrow wound on his body when he was angry just now, and he was so painful that he breathed in cold air.

Pointing to the mat in front of him, Niu Jinda motioned for Li Su to sit down, and then sighed: "Baby, you are not an outsider, the old man is not afraid of being embarrassed in front of you, anyway, the defeat in this battle is already known to the whole world, and the shame has already been lost to the whole world, and you still care about the face!" The old man's reputation in half of his life is all in it, but the old man also feels wronged in his heart! ”

Niu Jinda's eyes were red again, and his face was bitter and hateful.

"Rong Ma has fought for most of his life, and he has experienced more than 100 battles, and the old man patted his chest and said that the old man has not tried to defeat in these more than 100 battles, but only this time...... This time, the old man led an army of 100,000 to fight, but he was so restrained that he couldn't move......"

Li Su interrupted in a hurry: "Uncle Niu, be cautious!" ”

Niu Jinda stagnated for a moment, then sighed and said, "These are nothing, how can there be a general in the world who wins a hundred battles?" Defeat is defeat, the old man does not shirk, he admits the guilt that should be admitted, it is the old man who leads the army incompetently and kills the three armies, but it is a pity that the lives of more than 20,000 of my children in Guanzhong are gone! They are all young and strong men who have been born and raised by their fathers and mothers for many years, and they are all good sons and daughters who must do it, and the old man is stupid by himself, and he actually sent them to the ghost gate, and taught the old man how to face many lost fathers and mothers after he went back? He Yan saw the elders of Guanzhong! ”

Niu Jinda suddenly beat the ground and cried as he spoke.

Li Su hurriedly patted him on the back and comforted him gently.

"Uncle Niu, this defeat is not a crime of war, you and I both understand." Li Su said cryptically.

Niu Jinda's face darkened, and he sighed helplessly.

Li Su was also silent, secretly speculating that Niu Jinda's thoughts at this moment were probably the same as Yue Fei hundreds of years later.

The two were silent for a moment, and tacitly avoided sensitive topics and turned to the details of the defeat.

"As Zizheng said, Goguryeo's southern Sasa Gaohui is really extraordinary, and he is a character!" Niu Jinda sighed: "The old man listened to your words, be careful with this person, when the two armies faced each other, the old man strictly ordered the army not to move, only with a small force of cavalry to try to fight, each time he was resolved, and he also tested my camp with a small army, the two sides were extremely cautious in the battle, until the old man twice received His Majesty's order to urge the attack......"

Niu Jinda smiled bitterly and said: "Actually, most of the responsibility for this battle lies with me, even if His Majesty has not issued an order to urge, the old man is also going to take the initiative to attack, after many tests, the old man thinks that he has figured out Gao Huizhen's path, and there is a sixty or seventy percent certainty that he can be pressed to death at the foot of Niushou Mountain, baby, leading the army to fight has never been ten out of ten, but if there is more than half of the certainty, it is very feasible." At that time, His Majesty's will was urgent, and the old man was a little sure in his heart, so he decided to attack at night......"

Sighing, Niu Jinda shook his head and said: "I didn't expect the old man to underestimate Gao Huizhen, and after all, he still fell into his ambush......"

Li Su couldn't help but interject: "Uncle Niu is cautious in leading the army, both the government and the opposition have heard of it, before launching the attack last night, didn't Uncle Niu see any flaws at all?" Gao Huizhen, isn't this person's use of soldiers wonderful? ”

Niu Jinda sneered: "The old man really didn't see the flaws, but it's not that Gao Hui is really smart, but that he is hard-hearted and willing to sacrifice his generals, so he has also deceived the old man." ”

Li Su was puzzled: "What do you mean by this?" ”

"Last night when the attack was launched, the army went straight to the enemy camp, before the attack, the old man sent scouts to visit the camp three times, each time the scouts reported that the lights of the enemy camp were not extinguished, the figures were building, it was clearly a full battalion, 100,000 enemy troops were in the camp, and there was no extraordinary defense, baby, you also led a side of soldiers and horses, you told the old man, if the three visits to the camp are such signs, will you choose to attack?"

Li Su was stunned for a moment, and said: "If you change the kid, you will naturally choose to attack, after all, the enemy camp does not have any vision, the soldiers and horses are full, all defenseless, and it is a sneak attack at night, how can there be any reason not to attack?" ”

Niu Jinda slapped his thigh hard and sighed: "So, the old man was fooled!" 100,000 soldiers and horses were divided into about 40,000 flanks to outflank, and 60,000 forwards rushed straight to the front of the enemy camp, striving to annihilate all the enemy troops in the camp, but who knew that the old man's soldiers and horses rushed in and ignited and killed, and finally counted the results, but the enemy soldiers who died under our saber were only more than 3,000, only 3,000! ”

Li Su was stunned and said: "There are only 3,000 people in the camp of 100,000 people, why is this? ”

"Otherwise, why does the old man say that this Gao Hui is really hard-hearted and willing to sacrifice his generals! Hehe, long before the old man decided to attack, this Gao Huizhen may have seen the movement of our army, and secretly withdrew the soldiers and horses from the camp after dark, but left 3,000 people to guard the enemy camp, pretending to be full of soldiers and horses inside, attracting the old man to lead the army to attack it, and when all the 100,000 soldiers and horses of our army rushed into the enemy camp, Gao Huizhen surrounded us on the periphery, and caught turtles in an urn, to put it bluntly, the old man was defeated in the hands of the 3,000 people who guarded the camp, or in other words, the old man was defeated in Gao Huizhen's ruthless heart! ”

"More than 3,000 people, all of them are his generals, they were used as sacrificial pawns by the boss, and they were abandoned, the old man led the army for most of his life, and he knew the truth of 'mercy is not in charge of the army', and he did not pretend to be a general, whether it was drills or marching and fighting, it was even more harsh, and the old man did not even blink his eyes when he sent the generals to fight hard, but he was able to be so ruthless to his subordinates, deliberately sacrificing their lives in exchange for a big victory, the old man asked himself if he couldn't do it, not only could he not do it, he didn't even think about it, so the old man had this defeat!"

Niu Jinda smiled miserably: "Rong Ma has been half his life, and he still has not fully understood the four words 'Ci is not in charge of the army', and the old man deserves to be defeated!" This defeat really opened the old man's eyes, and also gave the old man a new understanding of the country of Goguryeo, the other country has such a ruthless handsome, whether my king can conquer it, it is really unknown......"

Listening to Niu Jinda's eloquent narration, Li Su only felt a chill.

Exchanged the lives of 3,000 people for a big victory, did these 3,000 people know before they were slaughtered by the Tang army? Do they still foolishly believe that this is the manager's ploy, and the boss will definitely lead a large army to save them before they are killed? What were they thinking before they died? At this moment in Liaodong City, when Gao Huizhen was celebrating this great victory, did he think about what the souls of the three thousand soldiers who sacrificed were relied on?

The two countries are at war, and it is normal for the soldiers on both sides to fight for their lives on the battlefield, no matter how they are, and they are all loyal to the country, but what about those who were sacrificed in vain by their own commanders as pawns? What are they?

Niu Jinda lowered his head and sighed, Li Su fell into shock and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, and there was silence in the camp.

After a long time, Li Su shook his head and sighed: "This battle has also made the kid gain insight, it turns out that the lives of the generals can be sacrificed like this, Goguryeo is a country...... Terrible! ”

Niu Jinda raised his head and looked at him, and said deeply: "Until now, the old man gradually understood why you have been frowning since the beginning of the Eastern Crusade, the old man has lived half his life in vain, and he is not as good as you can see through a baby, our Eastern Crusade was not so optimistic, the Tang Dynasty began to establish the country, fought a tailwind battle for decades, and the morale was complacent, gradually becoming an arrogant soldier, since ancient times, the arrogant army will be defeated, the old man has set a precedent of defeat today, which is a wake-up call for other generals, I hope Your Majesty and the generals can take this as a warning, Don't follow the old man's mistakes, just now His Majesty came to visit the old man, and the old man also admonished His Majesty, but looking at His Majesty's demeanor when he left, it seemed to ......"

Saying that, Niu Jinda shook his head, his expression was full of disappointment, obviously Niu Jinda's advice Li Shimin did not listen to it, he still thinks that this defeat is just a temporary accident, or rather, he only thinks that Gao Huizhen is powerful alone, and has not raised this defeat to the height of the entire war.

Niu Jinda raised his head, looked gloomily at the low tent top, his godless gaze slowly shifted to Li Su, and said in an extremely weak voice: "If Your Majesty can accept the advice of the old man, reorganize the army, and sweep Goguryeo, even if the old man is defeated, it will be worth it, but if Your Majesty refuses to accept the advice, how to deal with the life and death of the 300,000 army, who can teach me?" ”

**********************************************************************

Li Su can't give Niu Jinda an answer, in this era when the Son of Heaven decides everything, the life and death of all living beings depends on Li Shimin's attitude, if Li Shimin insists on going his own way, the only choice for 300,000 soldiers is to step into the ghost gate, maybe they can live some, but not too much, of course Li Shimin is fine, even if the whole army is annihilated, he can still return to the Tang Dynasty safely under the escort of loyal generals, and continue to be his emperor, at most, he will not provoke Goguryeo in the future.

What should Li Suneng do?

He is just a courtier, and what he can do is really limited, no matter how many correct ideas and strategies there are, if Li Shimin does not accept the advice, it will all be in vain.

The power of the individual is ridiculously small compared to the supreme imperial power.

Leaving Niu Jinda's tent, Li Su looked at the gray sky with a gloomy expression, exhaled a long breath of turbidity, and then he saw Chang Tu.

Chang Tu was wearing a purple robe, with a piece of mink around his neck, and in such a cold weather, he didn't seem to feel cold at all, standing motionless in the cold wind, and even with a smile on his face.

"Li County Gong, Your Majesty summons."

…………

I haven't been to Li Shimin's handsome tent for a long time, since Jizhou took down Gao Suhui and other assassins, Li Su was ordered to stay away from the handsome tent together with Gao Suhui and other assassins, this is for the sake of Li Shimin's safety, after all, it is impossible for a group of assassins to live near His Majesty's tent of the emperor who are always thinking about his life, even if the assassins are captured, it is crazy to panic when you think about it.

Walking into the handsome tent, Li Su saw Li Shimin with his back to him, standing in the tent with his hands in his hands, staring intently at a huge map in front of him, on which a few solid lines, a few dotted lines, and a few cities with red crosses were drawn in circles.

Li Su saluted calmly and took a roll call.

Li Shimin turned around, his smile was as kind and warm as ever, yesterday's defeat didn't seem to take it to heart, Li Su really didn't know whether to praise him for the depth of the city, or scold him for being ruthless, at this moment, presumably Gao Huizhen in Liaodong City is also laughing, the winner is laughing, the loser is also laughing, what an ironic picture.

At this moment, Li Su couldn't help but have a very rebellious thought in his heart, compared with Gao Hui's really ruthlessness, how good is the Tang Dynasty emperor in front of him? If he were asked to exchange the lives of 3,000 soldiers for a victory, would he do it?

Li Su didn't dare to continue thinking about it, because this answer was too chilling to even think about it.

"Hehe, the army is wearing armor, there are many inconveniences, Zizheng doesn't need to be polite, sit down." Li Shimin waved his hand.

Li Su sat down honestly.

After taking a deep look at Li Su, Li Shimin said lightly: "I went to visit Niu Jinda just now, did he feel better?" ”

Li Sudao: "Uncle Niu blames himself very much, has the will to die, and keeps saying that the soldiers of the three armies are tired by him, and they will fight with their lives......"

Li Shimin showed a sad and sad look, and sighed: "Water is impermanent, soldiers are impermanent, victory and defeat on the battlefield are unpredictable, victory or defeat is a common thing, Lao Niu's mind is too heavy, I actually didn't blame him, in the end, it was my interference that caused Lao Niu to have to send troops, this is all my fault, how can I bear to let the humerus veteran accept it on my behalf?" ”

Li Su arched his hand and said: "I hope that Your Majesty and the generals will take this as a lesson, reassess the strength of the enemy's army, and regroup to fight again after learning from the pain, so that the more than 20,000 soldiers who died in battle can also be regarded as worthy of death." ”

Li Shimin's face was a little gloomy, and he said in a deep voice: "Zizheng thinks that our current strategy and tactics are biased? ”

The opportunity to admonish is rare, Li Su had to seize every opportunity, so he didn't care about the wording, and said very directly: "Yes, I think that our strategy and tactics must be changed, the enemy army is obviously not as weak as we imagined, in fact, their fierceness and cunning are not weaker than our Tang Dynasty Division, the two armies are against each other, and they are the most taboo to underestimate the enemy, they are different from those enemies that Datang has encountered over the years......"

Before he finished speaking, Li Shimin suddenly waved his hand, interrupted him, and said: "They are also flesh and blood with two hands and legs, and they are no different from the enemies that the Tang Dynasty has encountered over the years, Zizheng, you think too highly of Goguryeo, although our army suffered a small defeat for a while, but I feel that this defeat is just a mistake, and there is no need to overestimate Goguryeo's combat strength because of this defeat......"

Pointing to the map in front of him, Li Shimin swiped his big hand on it fiercely, and said: "As long as Liaodong City is captured, the whole situation will be revitalized, our army can go south to take Anshi City, or go north to Kexincheng, Yanjin, or go east all the way to the capital Pyongyang, you see, if you can conquer Liaodong City, is it all alive?" I can drop on the chessboard of Goguryeo at will, why can't I exterminate the Quangai Suwen thief? Ha ha! ”
