Chapter 1044: Alluring the country and the city

As the secretary of the military department, Gao Jun felt the need to put his thoughts on the prince. But in this way, it was obvious that he was afraid that the British public would make a big contribution, which made him hesitate again.

40,000 people fought in this way, and in the end, it was still Gai Suwen begging peace, but the payment was by no means the same.

This is different from Xizhou, Gao Jun's status is high, and his power is greater, but he has to consider many things other than the main thing.

He thought bitterly that maybe he had kindly recommended Li Ji and made him get the actual position of Sima in Xizhou, but in the eyes of the British Duke Li Shi, it was precisely his own intention to give him a salary and weaken his strength.

The next day, when he went to court, the prince asked the military department Shangshu what he thought of the good news at the front.

Gao Jun said, "Thanks to His Royal Highness's prestige and the British Minister's skill, the war has made such a big gain." As long as we order General Niu to conquer one or two cities by water in a short period of time, and at the same time contact Silla to make a counterattack posture, it is expected that Gai Suwen will be attacked on three sides, and he will soon be unable to support it. ”

This is what Yi Zhi wanted: to end the war in Goryeo perfectly and concisely and achieve its original goal during his time in power. This perfection of course also includes paying a small loss and making Gai Suvin bow his head.

And to destroy Goryeo, it's not that he doesn't want to, but in this way, there will inevitably be a stage of stalemate and hard fighting, and if it is not good, he will have to increase his troops, which will add a lot of variables. And the time is not short, but the emperor may return from the recuperation of Cuiwei Palace at some point.

The emperor attacked Goryeo several times, and once in person, and Goryeo is still supporting it to the present, occasionally stabbing at a glance. In fact, Li Zhi didn't want to take over the credit of destroying Goryeo by himself, as if he was more "eloquent" than the emperor.

He asked the military department again, "Detailed...... What do you think is the best way to do it? ”

At that time, Gao Jun euphemistically told all his thoughts at home and said, "Your Highness, it is the best policy to force Goryeo to beg for peace as soon as possible, as long as Gai Suwen gives up attacking Silla, we can withdraw our troops." Otherwise, it will drag on until winter, and those sheep in Crested City will have to bring their own feed! ”

The prince said, "It's exactly what I want." The rest will be arranged by the tall adults! ”

Then, in front of the hundred officials, the prince actually said to the military department, "Lord Gao, can you let my eighth sister-in-law go to Cuiwei Palace to have a look after taking office, and see how to plant some fresh flowers and trees outside the Anxi Palace...... In addition, Taihe Valley is worth repairing, there are waterfalls, streams, trees, and flowers, it is really a good place to go...... Recently His Majesty likes to hike ......"

The prince was talking about military affairs, and suddenly turned to this, and all the officials guessed that what the prince said must be the new arrival in Chang'an, the tall eighth lady Su Yin.

The "sister-in-law" he called must be referring to the former crown princess. But with the number "eight" in front of it, I can't help but scrutinize. Because there are "eight sisters-in-law", there are eldest sisters-in-law, second sisters-in-law, and third sisters-in-law...... Nine sisters-in-law.

Gao Jun was also stunned when he heard this, but he didn't dare to show a moment's hesitation in this regard, so as to make people reminisce about something else. So he immediately replied, "Remember, I'll tell her when I get back." ”

In late June, the sailors led by the Qingqiu Daoniu Governor really accelerated their advance according to the will of the military department.

Every time they push forward, the first is to raise food and eat and drink on the spot, and the second is to cause sabotage everywhere.

Niu Jinda's department did not cherish the family background in the west of Gaisuwen, and the city corridors and fortifications were all damaged, and the enemy city suspension bridge was split for barbecue, and the city gate was demolished for cooking, making it clear that it did not plan to occupy it.

Gai Suwen really gradually withdrew troops from Silla.

The queen of Silla received the hint from the Tang army and personally went to the border to wave her flag and shout for killing, but the Goryeo people only left the necessary defensive forces, and most of them went to the west and north.

The secretary of the military department did not intend to give orders to the old British duke, he sent people to take a fast sail and send a message to the waterway: defeat the enemy in July, don't destroy the city again, and be able to stick to the rules and stick to the northern front of the British duke.

Gao Jun didn't dare to doubt Li Shi's ability to strategize, but the requirements of the military department Shangshu for this campaign were more than these. It is also necessary to reduce self-damage as much as possible and achieve the goal.

Eight hundred Tang troops, good mutton feeding, put in the Yibi Lu Department, can't let Ashina Desire Valley personally go out of the city to sacrifice the maid, then it will be a loss, not to mention that they are all killed!

If Xie Jinlian lives a careful life and spends money as a war, then why not treat the war as a careful life.

He sent another secret letter to his brother Xue Li, which was a secret letter: Li Shi no longer obeyed the overall situation, so he reduced his mutton and gave him a supply of aged hazelnuts every day, saving him excess energy.

He wasn't worried that his righteous brother Xue Li would make this public, for some tough guys, he should let him poop dry, squat in the thatched house for a while, and don't go outside to toss.

Then he made the time to consider the candidates for Longxing City Ranch. There is no comparison to Xizhou, under Gai Suwen's nose, how can he rest assured that people like Ma Xun and others are gone!

At least I have to see some battles, and in the future, even if most of the Tang army withdraws, and Longxingcheng Ranch cooperates with a small number of Tang defenders, at least it can withstand it and maneuver for one to half a month.

Gao Jun thinks that there is a person who can reassure him, Lu Xiaoyu.

Lu Xiaoyu has made many military exploits with himself from Yazhou to Xizhou, and the captain of the Tianshan pastoral protection team is only an eight-rank upper rank, and Lu Xiaoyu is appointed as the pastoral supervisor of Longxing City, although the name is small, but the grade is directly from the sixth rank to the lower rank.

For a while, Gao Jun couldn't calculate how many steps he could ascend in this step.

This man is bold and careful, and his ability to do things immediately is not small, and a silver spear can play a game. He will definitely be able to echo Xue Li left and right in Longxing City, and Gao Jun can still count on the confidence that he will form another excellent herding team in Longxing City.

A six-hundred-mile urgent letter was sent to Xizhou around the clock.

Gao Jun only allowed Lu Xiaoyu to bring two people out from Tianshan Mu, but he was not allowed more. As soon as the military department Shangshu left Xizhou, he dug into Uncle Guo's corner.

When the court was dispersed on this day, Lord Sun, the eldest prince of Zhao Guo, said to Gao Jun that Li Jing, the prince of Weiguo, was seriously ill, and many ministers of the court and the central government had visited him.

This is the eldest grandson Wuji kindly reminding the military department that Gao Jun is busy these days, and he has indeed ignored this matter. Although it is not good for important ministers to be very secret, there is no one who needs to visit the sick in the house.

Li Jing is known as the god of war in the Tang Dynasty, and many of his protégés are old, which is a great force. And the new military department Shangshu personally visited the door, which is not simple.

After coming back, Gao Jun told Liu Yuru about the matter, meaning that he wanted to take her to visit Wei Guogong Li Jing to show his solemnity, Liu Yuru knew that this was a big deal, and he was not familiar with Wei Guogong and would go, so he happily agreed.

The choice of gifts is very particular, it must be of grade, and it cannot be a large bag.

Last time, the third sister-in-law An came to visit the door, in addition to bringing nine pieces of women's cloaks with good leather to Gao Jun's family, she also brought a seven- or eight-inch wild ginseng to Mrs. Cui Ying, which was held in a red velvet embroidery box and fixed with a whisker and a whisker with fine gold thread.

It's priceless, and it's the right thing for the patient. This time, Mrs. Cui asked Liu Yuru to bring it.

It happened to be a sunny day, and the prince went to Cuiwei Palace, and he was exempted from the early dynasty. Gao Jun and his wife Liu Yuru each rode horses, without a guard of honor, only with two personal guards, and came to Xingdaofang in a low-key manner.

Since moving into Yongning Fang, Liu Yuru rarely goes out, and the residents who have heard of the beautiful lady of the military department for a long time stopped and gave way when they saw the two of them riding over.

Because she wants to ride a horse and save the cumbersome of vehicles, coachmen, and horses, today she deliberately wears a set of white silk Hufu with fine workmanship and solid stitches, but it is different from the common Hufu.

Common Hufu often reuses materials first, often close to sheepskin materials, colors, decorated with Hudi-style patterns, leather belts, animal plush edges.

And this one of her is the finest white silk, completely made of middle-earth materials, holding layers of folds. Wearing it on the body happened to be where she should be very convex, and those folds were stretched out, which showed both plump and three-dimensional.

Then the outside is covered with the monofilament blue basket skirt presented by Lilan, which is embroidered with various shapes of flowers and birds with gold thread as thin as hair, and you can also speculate the exquisite and slender degree of this flower cage skirt without asking.

People have never seen such a matching outfit, and it looks simple, but it is not. There is a bit of Hudi style in the classical, hazy, elegant, and expensive.

There was a young lady from a solid family who chased after her eyes, not only to observe the natural beauty of the military department Shangshu, but also to ponder her dress, and to secretly note down their fancies, but their eyes were not enough, and they did not remember anything until they were far away.

From Yongning Fang to Xingdaofang, after leaving the house, you only need to go north through three square districts, about three or four miles of road, and then pass the Cao Canal in the east of Xingdaofang.

On the stone bridge, Liu Yuru whispered to Gao Jun, "Look. ”

Gao Jun followed her gesture to look east, and saw a person riding alone, just turning into the north gate of Pingkangfang.

From the back of the man, he was already a little familiar, and the moment he turned his face sideways, Gao Jun recognized that it should be the eldest grandson Chong.

Changsun Chong is the eldest brother of Changsun Run, and he went to Yongningfang Gaofu once. Since the death of Princess Changle, the eldest grandson Chong has never married. He went to Pingkangfang during the time when he was not in the court today, and Gao Jun could guess what he was going to do.

He motioned to Liu Yuru to turn his head, if the two sides saw it, it was estimated that he would not feel very comfortable.

But Liu Yuru quietly interrogated him, "But how do you know the rules of 'Pingkangli'?" The implication is that after she hinted at Gao Jun to Chang'an, did she also go there.

Gao Jun didn't speak, just frowned and shook his head at her, because the Weiguo Mansion had arrived.

But Liu Yuru was completely dissatisfied with his prevarication, and then said in a low voice, "See the patient first, and then ask when you go back!" ”

Wei Guogong looked sluggish and thin, and when the two entered, he could only sit on the bed with the help of his family and nod his head in welcome, and he spoke weakly.

But he still praised Mrs. Liu from the bottom of his heart, saying that Mrs. Liu's arrival made his wards light up, and he felt that he was not born without love.

Liu Yuru presented the ginseng, greeted him briefly, and then took the bowl of medicinal soup from the servant, and then gave it to Gao Jun, Gao Jun bowed down to feed Li Jing, everything seemed kind and natural.

The military department Shangshu personally served the medicine and fed it, Li Jing was a little moved, and the two met for the first time and talked about his eldest son.

Li Deyu, the eldest son of Wei Guogong, was once a young eunuch from the fourth rank general, and was exiled to Lingnan because of his friendship with Li Chengqian, but in fact he did not do anything wrong.

Soon, Wei Guogong quickly struggled out of the bad mood, the two always had something to say, and the same people who had led the army, it was the best choice to talk to each other about the war.

He talked to Gao Jun about Xizhou, and Master Li was extremely interested in Gao Jun's achievements, and humbly asked him to talk about why he made such a decision when facing the enemy.

How dare Gao Jun hold it up, he has to say it.

But Wei Guogong had to listen, "Three hundred people dare to go deep into the Epyro land, and they can destroy more than 5,000 enemies, and they can retreat with their whole body, and the old man doesn't dare to think about it easily!" ”

Gao Jun had no choice but to say, "It's nothing more than taking advantage of the right time and place, thinking about what the enemy is afraid of, anticipating what the enemy must do, and attacking the enemy's shortcomings、......"

Li Jing continued, "Those who attack the enemy must be saved." ”

Gao Jun shook his head and said, "Those who attack the enemy will be saved...... The younger generation doesn't think so. ”

Li Jing's eyes widened at that time and asked, what? Is this statement wrong?

Gao Jun said, "That's right, but the enemy must be saved, and I will do my best to protect it, and I won't easily let my men go down to strike iron." It is true that the enemy must save his vital point, but he already knows that it is not easy to attack. ”

"So what?" Wei Guogong actually straightened up on the bed, and his eyes lit up.

Gao Jun said, "The younger generation thinks that the enemy must be saved, and he should only be a rope to stumble the enemy and a rope to tie the couple." The so-called strange is right, the virtual is real, the courage and cowardice are due to the potential, and the strength and weakness lie in the form. Although the water is weak, the water can be pumice and potential. Plants and trees can be soldiers, and the shape is also ......"

Li Jing exclaimed, "It's wonderful, wonderful!" It's really unspeakable! ”

Liu Yuru's eyes narrowed in surprise, she didn't know why this weak Wei Guogong had become so excited after listening to Gao Jun's inexplicable words.

But Gao Jun said, "The country is invincible, and the younger generations have always wanted to ask for advice." For example, the younger generation attaches great importance to the geographical advantage, but they always feel that they can't grasp the key ......"

Seeing that he was sincere, Wei Guogong hurriedly asked his subordinates to bring tea and let him moisten his throat, and then said:

"What the old man said is only the foundation, and it can't be the same as the smart and casual and eclectic tactics of the tall man."

Gao Jun said, "Don't say that, Guogong has never missed a battle after a hundred battles." And I was once chased by Ashina Desire Valley, and I wanted to jump into the river and go to the house......"

Liu Yuru smiled and defended the country fairly, "Mrs. Liu's smile is simply overwhelming, and this smile makes the old man think of a person, almost seven or eight points." ”

Liu Yuru said, "Uncle said the art of war, why did it come to me again." ”

Li Jing said, "The real purpose of using a knife and a gun is nothing more than that
