Li Chengqian got up and went out of the ranks, saluted Li Er, and said, "Father! Erchen thought that Goguryeo was going to crusade, but not now! ”

Li Eryi was stunned!

"Oh! Why did the prince say this! What does it mean that now is not the time, then when is the time to crusade against Goguryeo? Li Er asked. 35xs

What you said and what the ministers said is not the same thing, they are all against my expedition to Goguryeo.

"Goguryeo is harmful to the Tang Dynasty, I don't think it needs to be said by the sons, the father knows better than the sons and sons." Li Chengqian said.

Li Er nodded, and motioned to Li Chengqian to continue, he personally crusaded against Goguryeo, and the prince would not know better than him what strength the other party had.

"Goguryeo is a castle near the mountain, and it is very difficult to conquer it in a short time, and Yang Guangsan's expedition to Goguryeo returned in vain, so that the Sui Dynasty was exhausted, which is the case."

"Therefore, if you want to destroy Goguryeo, Erchen thinks that you should slowly plan it!" Li Chengqian said.

"What Your Highness means, but my Tang Dynasty wants to have a stalemate with Goguryeo for a long time, and the prince knows how much food will be consumed in the event of a stalemate."

"In addition, if the government soldiers are out fighting all year round, the land will be uncultivated, and the food produced every year will be reduced, and if there is a disaster year, how to deal with it."

"Under the elimination of one and the other, Datang is not in danger! Your Majesty, please think again! The minister was dissatisfied with what Li Chengqian said, so someone jumped out to refute the prince and advised Li Erzai to think twice. 35xs

Li Er didn't speak, he wanted to see how the prince coped with such a situation.

Li Chengqian glanced at the minister, Li Chengqian was not angry, because it was not worth it, and an ignorant guy would only bring humiliation on himself if he dared to jump in front of him.

"You couldn't be more wrong when you say that!" Li Chengqian looked at the minister and said.

"Why did the prince say this!" The minister didn't know what he was doing, and he thought he was right.

"Goguryeo is just a country, why should my Tang Dynasty bother to mobilize the people, just send a partial division to go deeper!" Li Chengqian said.

Li Chengqian wanted to fight a protracted war with Goguryeo, and the main purpose was not to conquer the city, but to harass the other side, so that Goguryeo was tired of coping.

Goguryeo and the Tang Dynasty are both agrarian societies, and farming is their top priority, as long as their cultivation is destroyed, within a few years, Goguryeo will definitely be finished.

When the time comes, it will be easy to send a large army to destroy Goguryeo in one fell swoop.

"Your Highness said this, the minister did not dare to agree, even if he sent a partial teacher to go deeper, how could it be? This consumption of grain and grass is reduced! But it still costs me a lot of food in Datang. ”

Once the grain and grass are robbed and go deep into the hinterland of the enemy, once the grain and grass are cut off, it is a dead end, so it is unwise to drink to quench your thirst. "Another minister stood up to refute Li Chengqian.

This is the difference between farming civilization and nomadic civilization, and farming civilization pays too much attention to the transportation of grain and grass.

The nomads, on the other hand, do not take this into account, and the nomads have always fed their wars with war, which can not only strengthen their own strength, but also weaken the strength of the other party.

If you can't eat a bite, you can take it slowly, and consume each other one bite at a time, and there will always be a time to solve it.

Besides, even if the Tang Dynasty's partial divisions penetrated deep into Goguryeo and could not get food from the Tang Dynasty itself, wouldn't they still retreat to Silla and Baekje to replenish supplies?

After eating and drinking, he will deal with Goguryeo again, which will not only consume Goguryeo's strength, but also indirectly drag down Silla and Baekje.

When Goguryeo is destroyed in the future, Silla and Baekje can be annexed together, and these two countries will also be included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty.

Of course, Li Chengqian could only think about it in his heart, but he did not dare to say it, such an act was an unrighteous act in the eyes of all people, and he would certainly be criticized by everyone.

As a big country, how can you do things that bully the weak, it is really insulting, and such behavior is simply despicable.

Therefore, Li Chengqian was too lazy to talk nonsense with these guys who were not old-fashioned.

"The last time my father and emperor went on a personal expedition, the people of the country were not allowed to farm, and all the grain and grass of the cities conquered had to be confiscated, and then there was a drought, and most of the people lacked food."

"Now it only takes more teachers to attack Goguryeo in turn, so that the Goguryeo people are tired of coping, and the Goguryeo people will give up their farm work and hide in the castle."

"In a few years, Goguryeo will be depressed, and the hearts of the people will leave it, and the north of the Yalu River will be able to take it without a fight, and at that time, it will not be easy to destroy Goguryeo."

"This is a plan written by the sons to destroy Goguryeo, and I also asked my father to look at it." Li Chengqian said goodbye, handed a codex to Wang Yuan, and asked him to transfer it to Li Er.

After Li Er read it, he was very happy, although the strategy written by the prince was still a little immature, and that was because he had never been to Goguryeo.

The specific situation of Goguryeo is not very clear, and some deviations are also possible.

In general, the big strategic policy is still in place, but why should Silla and Baekje be included in it?

This is where Li Er is puzzled, the crusade against Goguryeo has nothing to do with Silla and Baekje.

"Cheng Qian, the strategy you offered to defeat Goguryeo, I have seen it, it is very good! It's just that I don't understand why there are Silla and Baekje in this. Li Er asked.

Naturally, Li Chengqian would not tell Li Er that he would not only destroy Goguryeo, but also Silla and Baekje.

After all, Li Er didn't know that now that the Korean Peninsula is three-legged and contains each other, a balance has actually been formed.

Once this balance is broken, it will inevitably evolve from a three-legged situation to a one-size-fits-all situation.

Li Chengqian didn't want to work hard to defeat Goguryeo, and then let the Silla stick pick it up.

It can be said that he hated pressing the gold thread every year and making wedding clothes for others.

Silla wanted to rely on the strength of the Tang Dynasty to eliminate Goguryeo and Baekje, so as to achieve the goal of unifying the peninsula, so there was no need to think about it.

"Father, my Tang Dynasty division went deep into the hinterland of Goguryeo, first, the grain and grass are not very easy to solve, and second, once the enemy encircles and intercepts, our army can still retreat to Silla and Baekje for rest."

"In this way, it will be easier to attack Goguryeo, and with Silla and Baekje as temporary strongholds of our army, logistics can be guaranteed, and there will be no worries!" Li Chengqian now made up a reason to prevaricate the past.

Li Er and the ministers also felt that what Li Chengqian said was reasonable, but they didn't expect that Li Chengqian was actually trying to destroy Silla and Baekje together, otherwise, Li Er and the others would not allow Li Chengqian to come so nonsense.

Silla and Baekje are the subject countries of the Tang Dynasty, and they are also deferential to the Tang Dynasty on weekdays, how can they let the prince Hu come, this has to be spread, and the face of the Tang Dynasty is still wanted.
