Chapter 689: The Strategy of Destroying Qi
With the support of the eldest grandson Wuji, the next morning, when Li Yu proposed to fight the Qi State again, the situation was much better.
Basically, there was no objection left.
Li Yu's goal was achieved.
But at this time, someone stood up: "Shengshang, although the Qi country is in chaos, it is by no means an easy thing to destroy the Qi country, the Qi country currently has 200,000 troops, and there are 80,000 in the capital Chang'an alone, may I ask the saint, how to destroy Qi?" ”
To destroy a country, it is impossible to just talk about it, it is necessary to have absolute strength.
200,000 soldiers and horses of the Qi country, how do you destroy them? After this question was asked, the ministers looked at Li Yu one after another, Li Yu looked calm, and said: "What you said is right, it is indeed not easy to destroy Qi, so I feel that it should be done from several aspects, first, it is naturally to strengthen the strength of my Tang State, and now my Tang State Tiger and Wolf Army has 40,000 soldiers and horses, Lu."
There are more than 10,000 defenders in Zhou and Huzhou, so that in total, there are more than 60,000 soldiers and horses, and if another 20,000 soldiers and horses can be drawn from all over the country, I feel that if we want to destroy Qi, there will be basically no problem. ”
Li Yu paused after saying this, and after everyone heard it, they couldn't help but smile bitterly, this son of heaven of theirs is really endless.
Just transferred more than 20,000 soldiers and horses from the vassal kings to supplement the tiger and wolf army, and now they are going to send troops and horses to destroy Qi, and now the vassal kings are implementing the Tui En Order, but I am afraid that the Tui En Order has not been fully implemented, and the soldiers and horses of the vassal kings have been almost mobilized by him, right?
In fact, after the implementation of the Tui'en Order, even if those vassal kings want to raise a lot of soldiers and horses, I am afraid that it is unlikely.
Raising soldiers is a very expensive thing, and there is less land for vassal kings in various places, so there is so much food and money to raise soldiers?
Therefore, after Qin Tian asked their soldiers and horses to come, they would not expand on a large scale any longer, after all, they couldn't give the soldiers food and money, who would work for you?
Although they felt that Li Yu was a little insatiable, everyone didn't say anything.
"In addition, it is necessary to unite allies, in the west of Qi State, there is Tuyuhun Country, although Tuyuhun is small, but I heard that their soldiers are very strong, if they can be persuaded to attack Qi State with my Tang State, it is not difficult to destroy Qi."
"Then there is that Shen Tiannan of Qi will soon choose to ascend the throne, at that time, the vassal kings of Qi will not agree, and Qi will be afraid that it will be more chaotic, and make good use of the troops in all parts of Qi State, which can reduce a lot of resistance of our army."
Li Yu said a few things, and after saying this, he asked, "Do you have any questions?" ”
Everyone looked at each other, and then they all shook their heads.
If these aspects that Li Yu said are feasible, then they really have nothing to say, and it is really possible to succeed in destroying Qi.
Seeing that no one objected, Li Yu said again: "Chen Bannong is out of the ranks." ”
When the words fell, Chen Bannong had already walked out, and he looked good after changing his clothes.
"Holy?"
"I ordered you to send an envoy to Tuyuhun to persuade Tuyuhun to use troops against the Qi country, remember, as long as Tuyuhun is willing to send troops, my Tang State can support them in land and trade."
Li Yu said the bottom line, and after Chen Bannong heard it, he immediately received the order and said: "Please rest assured, if the minister can't complete the task, he would rather die abroad." ”
The affairs of Qi State hit Chen Bannong very hard, so this time, he even gave such a poisonous oath, Li Yu nodded.
---------------------
After retiring from the dynasty, Chen Bannong went back to prepare, and then left the Tang Kingdom again to complete his career as an envoy.
Li Yu returned to the imperial study.
It is indeed not easy to send troops to Qi country, but for him, it is the best opportunity at present.
Because of the previous destruction of 130,000 soldiers and horses of the Liang State and 40,000 soldiers and horses of the Turks, now the Liang State and the Turks can be said to be greatly injured, and they dare not fight against the Tang Dynasty easily.
Now, their Tang Kingdom does not have the threat of these two countries, and they can concentrate on destroying Qi.
If the Qi State was slowly pacified by Shen Tiannan, the Liang State and the Turks slowly recovered, and the fear of the Tang State was no longer so strong, it would basically have no chance of winning.
It's tough now, but to be honest, there's a real chance of winning.
As for Qi Rou, it's just incidental.
As a son of heaven, it is impossible for him to be angry and angry, everything must be carefully thought out, and it is considered from the height of the country.
Just as Li Yu was thinking like this, a eunuch hurriedly ran over.
"Holy Lord, good news has been sent from Qizhou, and Wei has withdrawn from Chen."
Hearing that Wei had withdrawn from Chen, Tang Yu nodded.
Although the Wei State is very strong and there are many fierce generals, with the Su family army here, it is not difficult to protect the Chen State.
After he destroys the Qi and Liang states, and even the Turks, he will set his sights on the Central Plains countries.
It's a trend to dominate the world.
However, now that countries have annexed strongly, I am afraid that when the time comes, he will be stronger, and other countries will also be strong, and it will not be easy to destroy them.
But there is no way around it.
The eunuch retreated, and it didn't take long for Su Rong to come from the harem.
"Holy Lord, I heard that the Wei State has withdrawn its troops."
Her Su Jiajun repelled the Wei State, which can be regarded as a great achievement, Li Yu saw her coming, and heard her say this, she already understood what Su Rong meant, she clearly had the meaning of showing off and inviting merit.
"Yes, General Su has made a great contribution, how does the queen think I should reward the Su family?"
Su Rong smiled: "The saint can reward him however he wants, of course, it would be better if he could reward some Tang Dao to Su Jiajun." ”
Su Rong was in the capital, and he knew the power of the Mo Dao and Tang Dao best, and he naturally hoped that their Su family army would also be equipped with such a blade.
In this way, it will be easier to guard Qizhou.
It's just that after she said this, Li Yu's expression changed slightly, Mo Dao and Tang Dao are the sharp weapons of their Tang Kingdom now, at least before the appearance of gunpowder, their blades are all sharp weapons of Tang Kingdom, sharp weapons, naturally they can only be used in the hands of people they trust.
Su Jiajun, can you be trusted?
Su Rong didn't know Li Yu's thoughts, so she just said it.
"Does the Holy One agree or not?" Su Rong asked, Li Yu smiled: "In the future, every soldier of the Tang Kingdom, Mo Dao and Tang Dao will be standard, but now it is very difficult to build Tang Dao and Mo Dao, and I want to drive the expedition in person, Mo Dao and Tang Dao are not much, and when there are more in the future, they must be equipped with Su Jiajun." ”
Li Yu promised first, and Su Rong didn't care whether it was true or not, and immediately became happy. "Then the slave and maid thanked the saint for the Su family."
