Chapter Fifty-Eight: The New and the Old
Li Guangbi followed Li Siye to his tent.
Looking at the young young general, Li Siye generously pointed to the seat on the side and said, "Sit, you're welcome, just like your own camp!" ”
Li Guangbi was a little apprehensive, and sat down with a little restraint. In fact, with his stubborn temper, not to mention that he is not afraid of heaven and earth, he is also a newborn calf, and dares to resist the king of all beasts. Li Siye is a rough man, but he may not be able to get into his eyes.
It's just that Pei Min suddenly decided to fight to the death in Arabia this time, and there must be a reason. Moreover, the strength of the Arabs is also obvious to all, and they may not be able to win with certainty.
Li Guangbi has always had a very high opinion of himself, and he naturally thinks that he has the ability to become an existence that influences the trend of the battle.
It's just that his status is far from enough to command an army alone, so Pei Min took the more qualified Li Siye as the main general and himself as his deputy, and specially ordered everything to discuss with him, which obviously meant that he was the main one.
This situation is not uncommon in history, such as Yang Guang's southern expedition and Li Xiaogong's destruction of Xiao Milling.
Yang Guang is the commander of the Southern Expedition, but he is only in name, the real decision-maker is Gao Xi, Li Xiaogong kills Xiao Miao, and the decision-maker is Li Jing.
That's what he said, but Li Siye's name, who in the Tang Dynasty can not know?
The invincible Mo sword general, the first strong man of the Tang Dynasty, made great achievements, especially the battle of Mo Liyi, he defeated the Tubo heavy armored cavalry with 3,000 Mo sword troops, and the name moved the world, and the Tubo people feared him like a tiger, calling him a supernatural general.
He was one of the first generals to follow Pei Min, and neither his military exploits nor qualifications could be compared with his own hairy boy.
If the supernatural general in front of him feels that he has lost face by listening to the command of his junior, and is unwilling to listen, then he really has no way at all.
The two most important points in the barracks: first, merit, and second, seniority.
Li Siye left Li Guangbi far behind, no matter what point.
Faced with this embarrassing situation, Li Guangbi was also able to put away his stubbornness, and a smile appeared on his rough face.
Li Siye looked at Li Guangbi's appearance and said with a smile: "General Li doesn't have to be like this, you and I are both surnamed Li." Maybe a hundred years ago, the two of us were still our own family. What does Pei Shuai mean, I understand. I myself have a few pounds and a few taels, and I know it myself. Let me go into battle to kill the enemy, but under this strange knife, I can't find a few opponents. But if I want to command the army, it will be the same as letting scholars fight and butchers embroider, it is really not that piece of material. This battle, how to fight, I listen to you. But there is one thing you have to do for me, my Lao Li has never lost in his life with Pei Shuai. We said ugly things ahead, if a certain person's reputation is ruined in the hands of your kid, no matter how much Pei Shuai treats you, I can't spare you. ”
Li Guangbi was overjoyed when he heard this, and said categorically: "Governor Li can rest assured, he doesn't dare to compare himself with Pei Shuai, and he is invincible." But he didn't dare to live up to his weight, if he really lost the face of the governor, he didn't have to do it, I Li Guangbi wiped my neck and apologized! lest you stain the Governor's sword......"
Li Siye admired this straightforward and heroic spirit, waved his big hand and said: "Then prepare to go, cultivate your spirits, and prepare for the decisive battle in three days." ”
Li Guangbi said: "The decisive battle is set for three days later, but Pei Shuai did not restrain us from attacking in three days." He entrusted the autonomy of the army to us, and it is clearly not a lie. Governor, I think tonight is the best strike! Let's get off to a good start and cheer up the decisive battle. ”
Li Siye was bold and belligerent by nature, and said busily: "How do you say how to fight, I listen to you!" ”
"Surprise Attack!" Li Guangbi's eyes flashed with wisdom, and he said: "The movements of our army cannot be concealed from Arabia, and I believe that it will not be long before the other party will find out about the movements of our army." Even if they don't know the exact time of our decisive decision, they can still make an approximation. No one could have imagined that we would attack tonight......"
Although Li Siye does not have a big military strategy, he is also experienced in a hundred battles.
This is familiar with 300 Tang poems, and he can't compose poems and can chant them. It is the same in military affairs, the most basic military principles, Li Siye is still proficient, seeing that Li Guangbi said the victory and defeat so simply, he questioned: "Can it be done?" ”
Li Guangbi said confidently: "Others can't do it, but I can." My surprise attack is not to win, but to lose. With the strength of Arabia, even if the surprise attack is successful, it will not take much advantage. Lure the enemy out and let the Mo Dao army under the command of the Governor try the sword, then it will be different......"
Hearing this surprise attack, Li Siye instinctively thought that it had nothing to do with him.
The biggest drawback of the Modao Army is that the movement speed is slow, how can the surprise attack be their business?
Now that he found that he had his own use, he was instantly moved, and Li Siye couldn't wait to ask: "You tell me carefully!" ”
**********
Li Linfu assisted Yan Gaoqing in handling the affairs of the Western Regions, and when he received Pei Min's summons, he did not dare to slack off. He was not good at riding, but he also rushed to the front-line barracks without stopping.
"I've seen Pei Shuai!"
Li Linfu saluted respectfully.
Pei Min looked at Li Linfu for a long time.
Li Linfu was a little drumming in his heart, and he was weak in being a thief, and in the face of this situation, he couldn't help but pinch himself in a cold sweat in his heart.
After a while, Pei Min opened his mouth and asked, "How is Tocharo's situation?" ”
Li Linfu breathed a sigh of relief and said: "The progress is very smooth, the baggage of the 200,000 Arab troops has passed through the territory of Tocharo. The transport of heavy soldiers and laborers, who were not very controlled by Mosley Massa, also caused a huge burden on Tocharo, and now the whole of Tocharian was dissatisfied with the Arabs, and only let the king of Umogan force it. Someone can feel it, and the dissatisfaction in Wu Mogan's heart is even higher than that of the people. Now there is just a lack of an opportunity, and when the opportunity comes, Tocharian will definitely be used by Pei Shuai. ”
Pei Min said directly: "I can't wait that long, three days later, I will have a decisive battle with Arabia." I don't know how long this battle will last, but I must have Tocharian in the service of Tocharian before our army can win or be defeated. ”
"This ......" Li Linfu was embarrassed: "It's already very soon, Pei Shuai, this matter is in a hurry." It's too pushy, and it's easy for Umogan to notice that something is wrong, and it may also make Mosley Massa pay attention. If Mosley Massa realizes our actions, it will be in vain. ”
Pei Min said: "Don't worry, after three days, the lion will not have a peaceful sleep, and he doesn't have the energy to care about things behind him." As for Umogan, you can solve it. I don't care what method you use, I will definitely do it for me. He paused for a moment and said word by word: "I will remember you a great achievement in accomplishing this." If you can't do it, the new and the old will be counted together......"
Rao is Li Li Linfu's unparalleled city government, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but sweat profusely, and he couldn't say a word, so he could only take his orders.
