Under normal circumstances, such military meetings are always noisy and shouting, and Li Shimin is also happy to see this kind of contentious scene, because it represents the vitality of a huge empire, everyone is vying to come up with ideas and strategies, and what Li Shimin has to do is to wait for the quarrel to end, gather the strengths of all families, and set the most secure and effective plan, and finally everyone will implement this plan.

To put it bluntly, this is what it is like to lead the army to fight, first send a document, then discuss the strategy, and finally set the strategy, each performing its own duties, and the army is dispatched, sweeping the enemy camp with a crushing momentum, and finally the city is broken and the enemy falls, and it is done.

But this time, Li Shimin felt very irritable from the bottom of his heart.

The 300,000-strong army has been stationed in Jizhou for five days, and it seems that it is about to reach the front line of the border, but until now it has not come up with a specific strategy, hundreds of thousands of people are stagnant outside the city, and the grain and grass that people eat every day is an astronomical amount.

The Tang army has swept the world invincible over the years, not only because of the strong combat effectiveness of the Guanzhong soldiers, but also because there is a group of terrifying generals and bigwigs comparable to the level of nuclear weapons, they may rarely go to the battlefield to kill the enemy in person, but the strategy and tactics they come up with while sitting in the tent may mean the destruction of the enemy soldiers in tens of thousands.

What is the situation in the tent today...... There are too many nuclear weapons bosses.

Everyone's ideas seem to have merit, and they are all summarized on Li Shimin's desk, and Li Shimin is on wax.

The effect of the earth-shattering thunder was amplified by Cheng Yanjin, and then Li Su poured a basin of cold water on it, and there was silence in the handsome tent.

When the generals had nothing to say, Li Shimin knocked on the table and said slowly: "Master Wang is rebellious, he has his own destiny and righteousness, although the heaven-shaking thunder is good, after all, it can't decide this victory, so don't consider it for the time being." ”

With a faint smile, Li Shimin's smile was full of confidence: "In the past, we didn't have such a thing as earth-shaking thunder, and my Wang Shi still swept the world and looked at the universe, why are you depressed today?" As long as the soldiers are united and fight with their lives, any fortified city in the world will be turned into powder under the crushing of our king's division! ”

The generals' spirits lifted, and only then did they return their thoughts to the deployment of the war.

There is no agreement, and this meeting must continue.

Li Su looked left and right, and quietly took two steps back without a trace, trying to drown himself in the crowd.

Just when Li Su immediately withdrew from the inner circle of the crowd and was about to reach the realm of small freshness and small transparency, he suddenly heard Li Ji's voice with a smile.

"Li Zizheng, what are you hiding? Come here! The old man does not shy away from his relatives, but wants to hear the high opinion of this young talent, I don't know what His Majesty and the public will do? ”

Li Shimin's eyes lit up and he smiled his head, and the rest of the generals also smiled and agreed.

Li Su is not very old, but he is not very famous, and he has close contacts with military generals on weekdays, and the generals in the account know Li Su's personality and ability very well.

"Very good, Zizheng, today's tent is full of your uncle, if you have a good plan, you might as well tell me carefully." Li Shimin said with a smile.

Li Su had a bitter face and sighed secretly.

I can't hide from it, is it that handsome is hurting myself?

"Well, Your Majesty and your uncles and uncles have good words in front of you, and the kid won't take out his ugly opinions, ah...... Suddenly remembered that there was soup stewed on the stove in the barracks...... "Li Su is very skilled in sacrificing the Tang Dun Dafa......

"Come on, pull Li Su out to fight the twenty army sticks......" Li Ji suddenly spoke, and the standard righteousness killed his face.

Li Su was frightened and lost his voice: "Slow! Don't be impulsive! Uncle Don't be impulsive, the kid must die for the Tang Dynasty! ”

Li Ji snorted, glanced at him with slanted eyes, and sneered: "Is it a candle?" Don't light up. ”

In the eyes of everyone, Li Su had no choice but to step forward, leaned over and glanced at the map, and then sighed: "Your Majesty, uncles, the boy thinks ...... Neither the words of my uncle nor Uncle Cheng are advisable. ”

The generals were stunned for a moment, and then whispered in their ears, Cheng Biting Jin's thick eyebrows lifted and was about to smoke Li Su, but seeing Li Shimin glaring at him coldly, Cheng Biting Jin snorted, and held back his squeak, Li Ji looked calm, and seemed not surprised by Li Su's statement.

"Zizheng, you go on, I would like to hear about it." Li Shimin said with Yan Yuese.

Li Su rubbed his nose, and since he had spoken, he simply said it thoroughly.

Pointing to the topographic map of Liaodong Goryeo on the map, Li Su said: "Your Majesty, uncles, you may have heard that although the Goguryeo Kingdom is small, the people and soldiers are fierce and aggressive, once they start, they often sacrifice their lives and forget to die, regardless of their lives, the two armies are facing each other, if one side of the soldiers has the will to die, this army is difficult to defeat, even if there is a one-on-one fight on the battlefield, it is still unknown whether my Tang Guanzhong soldiers can win, uncles, I don't know if you think so?" ”

Everyone was silent for a while, obviously they had all heard of Li Su's statement, Li Shimin had fully understood Goguryeo's customs and combat power before deciding to make a move on Goguryeo, and what Li Su said was true.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Li Su continued: "Also, this map is not detailed, although the roads of the city are painted on it, but the terrain and mountains are not indicated, everyone, Goguryeo is not a plain country, its country is full of high mountains and mountains, the mountain roads are rugged and treacherous, the mountains and forests are dense, it is difficult for ordinary people to cross, if the army enters the territory of Goguryeo, the first thing to face is the problem of marching, and the problem of the transportation of grain and grass for the army, etc., these are the most difficult troubles before the official war......"

When everyone in the tent heard this, they were immediately awe-struck.

Li Su looked at Li Ji and Cheng Yanjin, and said: "Uncle and Uncle Cheng's strategy of leveling Goryeo just now is very good, but the two generals estimate the distance and time of the march too optimistically, Goryeo is mountainous, the city is between the mountains, and the usual march can be reached in three or five days, if it is replaced by a mountain road, I am afraid it will take ten days and a half months, secondly, we are taking the initiative to attack this time, then there is a problem of time and place, Goryeo soldiers are familiar with the terrain in the territory, and are good at mountain and jungle warfare, and although we have a large number of people, we seem to be strong and strong, In fact, as long as we enter Goguryeo, our cavalry does not charge in the plains, and it is basically useless, and our soldiers are not familiar with mountain warfare, and if they rush into the mountains and forests, they will be ambushed and killed by heavy casualties from somewhere, so I advise you not to focus entirely on the siege, but to think more about how to overcome the terrain of Goryeo when marching. ”

After Li Su finished speaking, everyone in the tent fell into a long contemplation.

After a while, Li Shimin suddenly bowed his head and said: "Today I am fortunate to Zizheng's good words, otherwise you and I are afraid that you and I will make the mistake of underestimating the enemy, I think that what Zizheng said is reasonable, we should not think about how to attack the city, first of all, we must think about how to march, how to march in the mountains and jungles to reduce the battle damage, this question should be listed before the siege battle." ”

All the generals nodded, their expressions became serious and solemn, and everyone stared at the map and frowned and thought hard.

Li Shimin looked at Li Su and said with a smile: "Zizheng is highly talented, I have seen it again today, and I have been reminded by this kind word, I think I can remember Li Zizheng's merits, what do you think?" ”

The generals agreed convincingly.

Li Shimin raised his voice and said: "Where is the history of the marching army? Write it down to me, make a merit to Li Zizheng, the prince of Jingyang County, and return to the dynasty in triumph in the coming day. ”

Changshi respectfully retreated, and Li Su bowed and thanked him.

Li Shimin's smile gradually faded, stared blankly at the map, and sighed: "I really underestimated the enemy, when Emperor Yang of Sui conquered Goguryeo three times, all of them were defeated and returned, if you say that he is all to blame for his tyranny and unreasonableness, and the soldiers are centrifuged, I am afraid it is not necessarily, Goguryeo is not easy to conquer, poor mountains and bad waters, the people are poor, and the people of the whole country have nothing to lose. It's that I'm thinking too simply......"

The generals were silent for a while, in fact, not only Li Shimin thought simply, all the generals thought simply, the Tang Dynasty's invincible victories over the years have gradually overwhelmed the minds of the monarchs and ministers, and the arrogance has gradually increased, breeding a contemptuous heart, thinking that the Eastern Expedition to Goryeo is also as easy to capture as any previous battle, and now Li Su poured a basin of cold water on his head, and the monarchs and ministers in the tent finally sobered up, and they faced this barren but fierce country with solemn eyes for the first time.

After staring at the map for a long time, Li Shimin looked up at Li Su and said, "Zi Zheng seems to have unfinished words, right?" Just now you said so many difficulties, in your opinion, how should our army attack them? ”

Li Su's lips twitched a few times.

In fact, in his opinion, the best way is to turn around and go back to Chang'an now, without losing a single soldier, even if it is out for a tourist vacation, wait for a few more years, wait for the Tang Dynasty folk and the treasury to gradually fill, and the army has enough grain and grass to support the army to attack again, with enough grain and grass, no matter how slow the march is, it is not afraid, all the way slowly and leisurely, and finally the soldiers come to the city, it is okay not to fight, anyway, there is grain and grass to accompany the sticks to consume......

However, Li Su didn't dare to say these words, and even if he said them, Li Shimin would definitely refuse to agree.

Li Su found that Li Shimin's obsession with conquering Goguryeo had fallen into a daze, and he desperately wanted to do this great thing that would shine through the ages in his lifetime, but it was useless for anyone to persuade him......

After pondering for a moment, Li Su said slowly: "Your Majesty, according to the minister's opinion, after my royal division marches to Liucheng, it should be ...... Crossing the river and dividing the army, the 300,000 army was divided into several parts, and the veterans such as Uncle Cheng, Uncle Niu, and Uncle Cheng each led an army, not under each other's command, and marched to Pyongyang, the capital of Goguryeo, from the north, west, and south from three directions, and marched to Pyongyang, the capital of Goguryeo, and when the three roads attacked, they crossed the mountain, crossed the water, and attacked the city, as long as the big strategic intention was set, the specific way to march and how to attack, it was up to the generals who led the army to decide for themselves, and His Majesty was in the center to lead 100,000 soldiers and horses to delay, and slowly advance forward......"

"The soldiers and horses in the north directly take Buyeo, first cut off the connection between the Khitan and Goguryeo, prevent Goguryeo from asking for help from the Khitan, take Liaodong and Baiyan in the west, and go south through the Qianshan Mountains, and the soldiers and horses in the south echo with the 20,000 water divisions under the general management of Zhang Liang, take Anshi, Beisha, and Jian'an, and take Gyeongju after the two armies meet, and finally the troops will point directly at Pyongyang, and the three armies will attack at the same time, sweeping half of Goguryeo, and finally meeting under the city of Pyongyang, so that you don't have to worry about being attacked by the enemy on your back, and easily and calmly conquer Pyongyang......"

The strategy that Li Su said was very novel, and he almost denied all the strategic possibilities that the monarchs and ministers had discussed in the past few days, and the monarchs and ministers in the tent were silent when they heard this, frowning, as if they were digesting Li Su's words just now.

In the silence, an urgent shout was suddenly heard.

"Father, don't believe Li Su's words!"

Everyone turned their heads to look in amazement, but saw Li Tai, the king of Wei, walking over anxiously, with beads of sweat the size of beans on his fat face, and he looked anxious.

Li Suyi was stunned for a long time, he had been in the handsome tent just now, why didn't he notice that such a big guy was there? Where did this bowling ball come from?

Li Tai's body is very wide, one person can top three people, seeing him squeeze over with difficulty, the generals consciously get out of the way.

Li Shimin looked at Li Tai, a smile on the corner of his mouth, and said, "Qingque also has a high opinion? I and the generals would like to hear about it. ”

Li Tai nodded, then turned around and glared at Li Su fiercely, and then said: "Father, what Li Su said is misleading the country and the army, don't listen to it, my Wang Shixing poured the strength of the country and raised an army of 300,000, in order to complete his work in one battle, and pacify Goguryeo in one fell swoop with the momentum of the lion fighting the rabbit, if the troops are divided, they will be taken advantage of by Goguryeo, after all, we are fighting in the land of Goguryeo, the time and place are not as good as the people, and the whole army can compete for merit by advancing and retreating together, the road is treacherous, and it is inevitable that it will be broken by the Goryeo army......"

After a pause, Li Tai looked at Li Su and sneered: "What's more, how can it be easy to divide the troops?" Not to mention anything else, how can the food and grass of each army continue after the division of troops? How is it shipped? How to spend the horses and ordnance? The leading generals are not subordinate to each other, how can they make a door? How to dispatch the army in the middle of the emperor's house? Li Xiangong, have you ever thought about these drawbacks? ”

Li Su said calmly: "I have thought about it, in general, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, the division of troops is the safest way at present, the mountains of Goryeo are rugged, there are many jungles, and if you accidentally fall into an ambush, it will be the end of the annihilation of the whole army, if the army is divided into three shares, even if one of them is wiped out, the other two are enough to sweep away Goryeo and conquer Pyongyang, simply put, this is to spread the risk, do not put the eggs in the same basket, in terms of probability, my method is also a relatively high success rate." ”

Li Tai said angrily: "It's just nonsense! Wouldn't it be safer to concentrate all the main forces to attack one point and break them one by one? The division of troops is the most risky, Li Xiangong, you are a scholar, and you have no ability to lead the army, so please don't make a big statement and mistake the lives of the soldiers of our three armies! ”

Li Su sighed, fortunately, he has been lazy to a certain level in the past few years, and he is generally reluctant to do it, otherwise he would have changed his temper back then, and now he would have smoked a big mouth, but now......

Li Su smiled slightly, didn't bother to argue, closed his eyes and took care of himself.

Everyone in the tent had been listening to the argument between the two, and when they saw that Li Su had already turned a blind eye, everyone exhaled, and then everyone's eyes looked at Li Shimin.

Li Shimin looked quite hesitant, obviously Li Su and Li Tai's words were reasonable, and it was difficult to choose for a while.

The division of troops is a major event, and it is a very troublesome matter, the generals brought out by the Eastern Crusade all have the talent of the commander, Li Ji, Cheng Biting Jin, Niu Jinda, any of these people have enough ability to lead tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to attack the city and pull out the village, but Li Shimin hesitated, is it really necessary to divide the troops? If the troops are divided, then all the previous deployments and arrangements will have to be overturned and restarted, and the logistics officers and civilians who supervise the transportation of grain and grass and siege ordnance will have to be divided into three parts, and follow the three armies through mountains and rivers, and more importantly, if the main force is dispersed and the combat strength has also declined, how to ensure that the large army separated from these three forces will not be broken by the enemy?

There are pros and cons, and Li Shimin is really embarrassed.

Look at Li Tai, and then look at Li Su, Li Shimin smiled bitterly.

They are all dragons and phoenixes among people, but unfortunately they have different opinions and are incompatible.

Knocking lightly on the table, Li Shimin looked at the generals and said slowly: "Everyone should understand the meaning of the two, what do you think is the trade-off?" ”

Li Ji was silent for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister does not avoid relatives, and secretly thinks that Li Zizheng's method is quite in line with the situation, and now it seems that only the division of troops is the safest and most promising to destroy Goguryeo." ”

Cheng Yanjin snorted and said: "Zi Zhengxian's nephew, the old man has a clear distinction between public and private, this time the old man won't help you, the old man feels that what King Wei said is reasonable, the division of troops is a taboo for the commander, the 300,000 army is twisted into a rope, just like a clenched fist, no matter what enemy you encounter, just smash it with one punch, what cats and dogs and fleas are all smashed into powder, take a straight road and rush to Pyongyang, this is the most effective way, and it can also use the shortest time to extinguish Goguryeo, save a lot of grain and grass, if you divide the army, It is necessary to wrap half of Goguryeo around a big circle, not only a waste of time and grain and grass, but also a long time of variables, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be any changes in the battle situation, Your Majesty, the old man thinks that it is impossible to divide the army. ”

The generals whispered to each other, and unconsciously divided into two factions, one faction felt that what Li Su said was reasonable, and the division of troops was the safest, and the other faction agreed with Li Tai, the king of Wei, and felt that the main force was concentrated to take Pyongyang as the king road with the momentum of the lion fighting the rabbit, and there were many discussions between the two factions, and then the voices became louder and louder, and the quarrels became more and more intense.

Li Su shook his head and smiled bitterly.

He doesn't blame anyone, including Li Tai, the king of Wei who opposes him, and Cheng Biting Jin, marching and fighting, from the perspective of generals, each general has his own character, and his personality affects their own strategies and tactics, such as Cheng Biting Jin, his character is straight and straight, so he feels that the main force is like a fist smashing over, and Li Ji pays attention to the safety of fighting, such as cutting meat with a blunt knife, slowly cutting with a knife, only seeking to exchange the minimum price for the greatest victory.

The starting point is actually the same, but because of his personality, the way of doing things is different, Li Su is not an unreasonable person, even if Cheng Biting Jin is clearly against him, he doesn't mind, he doesn't talk about friendship in the handsome tent, only about victory or defeat, after all, everyone is responsible for the lives of these hundreds of thousands of Guanzhong children.

But Li Su still felt a heavy discomfort in his heart, as a person who had lived two lifetimes, Li Su knew what a heavy price Li Shimin paid for attacking Goguryeo in the real history, and the final result was a disastrous victory if it sounded good, and it was simply a defeat for both sides, and finally had to order the withdrawal of troops in the middle of the battle, this was the first and last time Li Shimin launched the Eastern Crusade battle, and Li Shimin died within a few years after the withdrawal, and Goguryeo became the biggest regret of his life.

The lesson is too deep, but now in this time and space, Li Shimin and they don't know what kind of result awaits them, what should Li Suneng do? Could it be that he grabbed Li Shimin's neck and told him hoarsely with all his strength to do what I said, otherwise you will wait to be planted, right?

It's cool to think about, but you can't play really, Li Su doesn't dare.
