Chapter 828: Dialogue between the Monarch and the Minister

Luo Zhaoyun personally summoned Xu Shiji, Wei Zheng and others, and encouraged them to give up their previous estrangement and prejudices, not to have a psychological burden, to do things seriously in Dahua, and to be able to pay attention to them and rely on their talents to speak.

Xu Shiji, Wei Zheng and others all breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, and naturally they were grateful and bowed down to thank them.

Subsequently, Luo Zhaoyun left Xu Shiji alone and talked to him, after all, Xu Shiji, who is similar in age to Luo Zhaoyun, will be Dahua's warrior in the future.

After all, Li Jing is fifty years old, a little older, and after pacifying the world, there will be fewer opportunities to go on the expedition.

But Xu Shiji is in the prime of life, and after the world is stable in the future, he will expand his territory, fight the Turks, fight Goguryeo, and fight Tibet, and he still needs a young general like Xu Shiji to take on the role.

Qin Qiong, Cheng Yanjin and others belong to brave generals, but they are not marshals who lead the three armies alone and command the overall situation!

"General Xu, now that I want to deal with the Xia army and capture Dou Jiande, do you think this strategy should be used?"

Xu Shiji moved slightly, realizing that His Majesty was testing his ability to see if he had real talent and knew how to use soldiers.

Because Emperor Dahua saw this, he didn't announce the world, and the emperor came to recruit in person, for Dou Jiande!

Before the expedition, a lot of strategic ideas were drawn up, and it is not necessarily the time to solicit opinions on a temporary basis.

Xu Shiji's heart is like a mirror, so he seriously considers himself as a Dahua general, or even a commander, how to deploy troops to deal with the Xia army of more than 100,000.

"Under the avoidance, the minister thinks that the common enemy is better than dividing the enemy, and the enemy yang is not as good as the enemy yin! Instead of having the enemy come together to attack, it is better to divide the enemy, to attack the enemy's strong place, and to attack the enemy's soft spots. ”

Xu Shiji quoted the art of war in the 36 strategies to express his opinion.

Luo Zhaoyun smiled faintly and asked again: "The plan is good, but how to implement it?" ”

Just talking about theories, then anyone can open their mouths to come to a few, what to attack the east and west, besiege the city to send reinforcements, surprise attack its unpreparedness, etc., but it is not enough to know these theories, how to connect with reality, how to accurately use troops, anticipate the enemy's opportunities, and then design layers of traps to trap the opponent, this is the actual combat cleverness.

Xu Shiji also knows that if he doesn't talk about it meticulously and shows his true skills, he will be looked down upon.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the minister feels that separating the Xia army and breaking them one by one can effectively eat away at the opponent's vital force. The specific key point is to have a bait, so that in a short period of time, the Xia army has to deploy troops to deal with it. And this bait is the Liyang warehouse on the north bank of the Yellow River! “

Xu Shiji paused, and said with a slightly excited expression: "If you can use him as a bait to attract a large number of Xia troops to come back to help, then Xingyang will withdraw some troops, after all, there are hundreds of stone grain in Liyang Cang, enough for hundreds of thousands of troops for a year and a half of grain and grass, it is very critical, if you can attract tens of thousands of Xia troops, ambush them on the way, half of them will be attacked, and this part of the army will be eliminated, and then Xingyang will be encircled and suppressed, and the initiative will be in our hands." ”

After Luo Zhaoyun listened, he nodded slightly, which was basically the same strategy he discussed with Li Jing.

In fact, Luo Zhaoyun was planning to use troops against Liyangcang, cut off the back road of the Xia army, disrupt the morale of the army, and force Dou Jiande to send troops back to rescue, so that the troops could be separated.

And Liyangcang, north of the Yellow River, long before Luo Zhaoyun arrived at the Tiger Prison Pass, Hou Junji had already sent an elite army to cross the river and lurk in the Hebei region, ready to attack Liyangcang at any time.

Since the Dahua elite carried black powder and special forces, it was very advantageous to raid this kind of cangcheng.

"Haha, yes, the hero sees the same thing! In fact, our army has formulated a strategy for a sneak attack on Liyangcang, but it is not familiar with that piece of terrain, just observing it from the map, the specific and detailed roads, hidden places, etc., the weak links in the siege need to be guided and commanded by people who are familiar with the area of Liyangcang, and you Xu Shiji, who has been guarding Liyangcang for a period of time, should be the most familiar, so I plan to send an elite army, and several tiger generals will move to this task, and you need to follow the whole process and be responsible for commanding. ”

Xu Shiji was shocked when he heard this, he couldn't imagine that such an important task would be handed over to him, a general who had just surrendered, wasn't he afraid that he would take the opportunity to escape.

Luo Zhaoyun saw Xu Shiji's confusion and surprise, and said with a slight smile: "Why, do you feel that the task is arduous and incompetent?" ”

Xu Shiji shook his head and said, "No, Weichen's ability to lead troops is enough to complete this task!" It's just that the minister feels a little puzzled, that is, the minister has just surrendered, it stands to reason that he should not engage in such a confidential military operation, why does His Majesty trust Weichen so much, aren't you afraid, I ran away on the way, or turned against him, and sabotaged this mission? ”

Luo Zhaoyun laughed and said: "Although the world is big and there are many princes, where is the place where you Xu Shiji can really live and develop your talents?" ”

After Xu Shiji listened, he suddenly realized that he didn't think clearly when he was in the game, yes, the world is big, but where can it be more suitable for him than Dahua, if he doesn't stay in such a place, will he go to other princes who are in decline and have no future?

Li Tang, Dou Jiande, Du Fuwei, Xiao Liang, none of the princely forces that Dahua wants to exterminate, can compete with Dahua and dominate the world!

Xu Shiji clenched his fists and said: "The minister is confused, and now his doubts are gone." His Majesty does not suspect that people are not used, so that Weichen is very admired, if he can carry out this task, Xu Shiji will do his best to complete it! ”

Luo Zhaoyun smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry, I sent Pei Xingyan and Ning Wufei to be your left and right deputy generals to attack Liyang Cang, as for the ambush on the way, I have my own arrangements, you don't have to worry, just rest assured to go and capture Cang City!" ”
