Chapter 538: Setting Up a Camp (Second Update, Asking for Subscription)
Li Yuan's idea is very resolute, and if he doesn't succeed, he will become a benevolent.
After expressing his position, Li Yuan looked at Li Shimin with burning eyes, and asked: "Now that Daxing is in a worrying situation, Shimin, you have returned from Luoyang, what do you think of countermeasures?"
Although Li Yuan had already made up his mind, he still wanted to hear Li Shimin's opinion.
Li Shimin thought about it, and then said: "If there is chaos today, the court no longer exists, and my father occupies Daxing, which is the righteousness of occupying the world and the center of the world." ”
"If the father wants to achieve the cause of the king, Daxing must not be lost, these truths, the father must understand, so he will gather heavy troops in Daxing, and want to fight to the death with the enemy."
Li Yuan nodded slowly, if it weren't for the ambition in his heart, how could he have the heart of death, he was unwilling to return to Daxing in discouragement, if the enemy army really wanted to enter Daxing, then decide the winner here
Li Shimin bowed his head and said: "There are many soldiers and horses in the coalition army, but on the battlefield, no matter how many soldiers and horses there are, they are not as brave as the soldiers. ”
Hearing Li Shimin's words, Li Yuan's eyes flashed, he naturally knew about the Snapdragon Army.
If it weren't for the Snapdragon Army's night attack on Tongguan, Tongguan, which was heavily defended, would not be so easy to break
Li Shimin continued: "This Snapdragon Army is strong, if you order the soldiers to fight with it, although hundreds of thousands of elites are helpless, the only way for my father to use it is to stick to the walled city." ”
"But the enemy army is menacing, if we only defend Daxing City, we will inevitably fall into passivity, let the enemy do whatever they want, I am afraid it will be difficult to succeed, in the opinion of the people, my father can set up a camp outside the city."
"Sending a large army to garrison can not only guard against the enemy, but also avoid field battles with the Snapdragon army, there is a walled city to ease, and the cavalry has no advantage, which can be the first line of defense for Daxing City."
Li Yuan listened carefully to Li Shimin's words, nodded his head and said: "What Shimin said is reasonable, Yanyun Xiaolong Army is indeed terrifying, if we don't make more preparations, I'm afraid we will become trapped beasts." ”
"Finding a suitable place outside the city, setting up a camp defense line, and arranging more traps to resist horses and piles can indeed ease the pressure on the city, and you can not only seek battle, but also avoid retreat."
After thinking about it, Li Yuan had the answer in his heart, what Li Shimin said was indeed a pertinent remark, now that the enemy army is about to be killed, Li Yuan is unwilling to give up a chance.
After a little consideration, Li Yuan asked Li Shimin again: "The affairs of the camp need to be arranged as soon as possible, I don't know if Shimin has a suitable person in your heart, and you can ensure the stability of the camp." ”
Li Shimin thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "If my father wants his sons to nominate candidates, then Li Jing is very resourceful and can often understand the trajectory of the enemy's army, and my father can use this person as a general." ”
Hearing this, Li Yuan was a little surprised, and asked: "This Li Jing is indeed quite talented, but why do you value him so much, after all, this is going to Luoyang?"
Seeing that Li Yuan was silent, Li Shimin smiled slightly, he naturally understood what Li Yuan meant. After all, when he went to Luoyang, Li Jing not only did not make any contributions, but he lost a lot.
But this will not affect Li Shimin's treatment of Li Jing because, after the two sides talked, Li Shimin had already determined that Li Jing's future achievements would be extraordinary, or he could be a pillar of the minister.
Since Li Jing is so good, Li Shimin will naturally want to invest in him, and now that the coalition is coming, it is not only a big challenge, but also a big opportunity to show Li Jing's talent.
I went to Luoyang before because of many accidents, not only did not show Li Jing's ability, but also made Li Yuan look down on him, Li Jing was unwilling, and Li Shimin didn't want him to be dusty.
"Don't hide it from my father, my son and Li Jing met from Luoyang, and they discussed with him about the enemy's plan, there is nothing wrong in it, if it weren't for the Snapdragon Army being too strong, there would not have been many changes."
"If the father believes in his son, he will use Li Jing again to try his talents, and now Daxing is in danger, once an accident occurs, it is the time when there is no comeback, and we must be cautious." Li Shimin looked at Li Yuan and said in a deep voice.
Li Yuan was silent for a short time, and suddenly made up his mind, and said: "It's okay, my father knows that Li Jing is a person with outstanding talents, since you trust the people so much, my father will give him a chance." ”
"If you can really hold Daxing after the war, my father will definitely not be stingy with rewards, this is a battle of life and death, if I lose the war, I am afraid that no one in my Li family will be spared." Li Yuan said abruptly.
Since he has chosen this path, even if Li Yuan regrets it, there is no way, what he can do now is to continue to move forward, do his best, and defend Daxing City to win this battle.
Of course, although Li Yuan was ready to give Li Jing a chance, it was impossible for him to hand over Daxing's life and death.
Li Jing was sent by Li Yuan to build a camp outside the city, although he was the main general, there were also veterans under Li Yuan's command as deputies, so as to prevent Li Jing from suddenly going up and causing the collapse of the entire battle situation.
Li Jing, who got this opportunity, was naturally quite happy, and he knew that this had nothing to do with Li Shimin. While grateful, he also made up his mind to do his best to stick to Daxing.
Before the coalition forces advanced to Daxing, Li Yuan did not relax in the slightest, and all parties planned and arranged, just not wanting to give the enemy too many opportunities to take advantage of.
The precedents of Bishui Pass and Tongguan have already made Li Yuan on guard. If Daxing is served again, then he basically doesn't have to play, and he settles himself.
At this moment, Luo Cheng also led troops from Luoyang.
Unlike Li Shimin, Luo Cheng's march was not in a hurry. Now that he has the initiative, there is no need to worry too much at all, and it is also for the sake of prudence that the march maintains a certain combat strength.
It would be embarrassing if the enemy suddenly came back and attacked while the army was tired. Although it is extremely unlikely, no one can be sure until it happens.
In this way, Luo Cheng arrived at Tongguan.
It was precisely because of the breaking of Tongguan that Li Shimin chose to rush back to help, and Li Yuan was so anxious and panicked. There is no doubt that this level has a role for Daxing, and the role played by the Snapdragon Army is not insignificant.
Looking at this steep level, Luo Cheng smiled lightly and said: "When I arrive at Tongguan, I can reach Daxing after a few days of marching, and I don't know how Li Yuan is preparing at this moment." ”
Xu Maogong, who was beside Luo Cheng at this moment, said: "I'm afraid Li Yuan never thought that the survival of Daxing was all in his thoughts, if he retreated in fear, no one could be blamed." ”
Luo Cheng nodded and said: "If Li Yuan really fights a decisive battle with the heart of death, he will definitely not be able to take it this time alone, and he needs to think about it in the long run." ”
But if Li Yuan took the initiative to give up Daxing, then it was no wonder that Luo Cheng accepted it. After all, in this world, everyone is coveting, but in the end, if you can succeed, you have to look at your ability. ”
Luo Cheng's tone was light, but Xu Maogong felt Luo Cheng's determination from it, as if the world was already under Luo Cheng's control, and the group of heroes was just a foil.
