Chapter 296: Duan Wenzhen, the Secretary of the Military Department (2)

Duan Wenzhen is not this person who is eager for quick success, on the contrary, he also has a very strategic vision and excellent military talent, otherwise, he would not be in this position today.

One thing must be admitted that Yang Guang, who has been badly criticized in later generations, is very good at knowing people, and has his own unique vision.

During the Sui Dynasty, it was also an era of heroes, and countless famous ministers and fierce generals emerged.

It's just that the Sui Dynasty existed for too short a time, and it suffered the loss of Yang Guang, a famous tyrant in history, plus the Tang Dynasty that followed was too dazzling, and there were no brilliant storytelling, romance stories and other things, so most of these people are not as famous as these people in the Tang Dynasty, and even many people, few people know.

For example, at this time, the Sui Dynasty military department Shangshu who was in the room, Duan Wenzhen.

This is definitely an underrated existence.

At this time in today's Great Sui, when many famous ministers still exist, being able to sit in the position of the secretary of the military department is definitely not a simple figure.

Coupled with Yang Guang's vision, it is impossible for him to become a waste.

For Goguryeo, he has his own unique vision.

He felt that if he wanted to attack Goguryeo, he would not do it, as long as he made a move, he would use the momentum of thunder to push sideways all the time, without giving the Goguryeo people any respite, and strike with the strength of the decisive match, as if it were withering and decaying.

The reason for this decision was the special geographical location and climate of Goguryeo.

Goguryeo is located on the border, too far from the core of the Great Sui.

Not to mention the rest, the grain and grass alone is enough to make people embarrassed.

Although the Grand Canal was dug in order to transport grain and grass, and a large number of people were also summoned to travel and transport it from land, plus the countless granaries of the Great Sui, a large amount of grain was stored.

But the pressure of transporting grain and grass over such a long distance, and for so many people to eat, is still very, very great.

Because of the progress of these things, Duan Wenzhen knew a lot about the chaos caused within the Great Sui.

In fact, according to his thoughts, it was impossible to attack Goguryeo with such a big move, but if the emperor wanted to do so, he had no choice but to fight beautifully under the conditions given by the emperor.

Because he knew the situation in the country at this time, Duan Wenzhen wanted to end this large-scale war as soon as possible.

Because he felt that if the time dragged on too long, such a thing would continue, and when Goguryeo was attacked, the national strength of the Great Sui would also be greatly damaged.

In the future, it will take a long time to cultivate before it can recover one.

As an old minister who came down from the time of Emperor Wen, he did not want to see the foundation established by Emperor Wen destroyed.

They don't want to see the country they worked so hard for become miserable and wars are raging.

Another reason is that the climate here in Goguryeo is too bad, either windy snow or rainy season, the time suitable for combat is too short, only a few months a year can be used to march and fight, coupled with the high mountains and dense forests, the road is rugged, once the time drags on too long, the difficulty of attacking Goguryeo will increase by more than one percent.

Along with the increase in difficulty, it was the loss of the Great Sui.

Whether it is a large number of casualties, or a large consumption of grain, grass, ordnance and other things, it is not what Duan Wenzhen is willing to see, because these are the national strength of the Great Sui.

It was precisely because of this that after hearing Yang Guang's words at this moment, he seemed hesitant.

Because the whole army mourned for three days, it means that during these three days, there is no way to carry out the previous reorganization of the army and other things.

Such an approach is obviously inconsistent with his philosophy.

Three days is not a long time at all, but at this time, it seems a little too long, and it will delay a lot of time.

"Supreme, this ......"

Duan Wenzhen, who hesitated for a while, looked at Yang Guang and said hesitantly.

"General Duan, it's okay, General Changsun has made so many achievements for the country, and he has taken on such an honor, three days is not a long time, for the sake of General Changsun, I am willing to let the military stagnate for three days, otherwise, I am not happy in my heart."

Yang Guang knew what Duan Wenzhen wanted to say, so as soon as Duan Wenzhen spoke, Yang Guang opened his mouth to interrupt him.

Hearing Yang Guang say this, Duan Wenzhen opened his mouth, and the rest of the words could not be spoken.

Although he felt that three days was a bit much, Yang Guang, as the emperor, opened his mouth, and Duan Wenzhen didn't have much to say.

"Obey."

He said.

Without Duan Wenzhen's objection, the people in the room did not speak again, and the matter was decided.

After the matter was settled, the room was not quiet, because there were still various things to be busy and arranged......

Duan Wenzhen stood outside the room, looking up at the starry sky, and after maintaining this posture for a while, he lowered his head and let out a long sigh.

He looked his head at the room where Changsun Sheng was, and after looking at it like this for a while, he couldn't help but sigh again.

Although he spoke out against the emperor's three-day suspension of the army for Changsun Sheng, in fact, he did not have any opinion on Changsun Sheng.

On the contrary, his relationship with Changsun Sheng is still very good.

For Changsun Sheng, he also respects him very much and admires him very much.

As an existence about the same age as Changsun Sheng, he was actually very uncomfortable with the death of Changsun Sheng.

After all, this is really a person who does his best for the sake of the Great Sui.

"Alas~"

He let out another long sigh, and when the sigh was over, he couldn't help but cough a few times.

After taking a few big breaths, Duan Wenzhen couldn't help but rub his heart.

I am getting older, and my body is not as good as before.

The root of this disease fell from the previous attack on Tuyuhun, and although it was cured before, it still did not come out well.

Like Changsun Sheng, it's okay to recuperate for a long time, and your body will be a little unwell when you get busy.

But there is nothing to do, the emperor likes to fight, even if his health is not too good, as the secretary of the military department, he can't retreat, he can only hold on.

My body knows that since I came here, my body has begun to deteriorate day by day, day by day.

died, Duan Wenzhen was not very afraid, mainly because he was worried that after his death, the war would not be fought well, what chaos might occur, and what bad effects would be on the country of the Great Sui.

I must pay more attention in the future, but I can't fall down at this time......
