There is a saying that the ass decides the head.

Qin Hao was originally a civilian official, and he mostly did civilian affairs when he went to the battlefield, and he had made it clear to Li Shimin that he would no longer be involved in military power after this war, so his current thinking is completely that of a civilian official.

According to Li Shimin's idea just now, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are indeed saved, but there is no need to build this Andong Protectorate.

is also a plunder, and the intensity of the Tang army and the Hu army is very different.

Not to mention how the Tang army treated the Han people, even if it was a Buyeo people, they would usually only grab some valuable and small things, and if there was no shortage of food in the army, they would usually leave a mouthful of life food, and even the flower girl only picked those young and beautiful scourges.

But the Hu people are different, in the eyes of these people, everything is a treasure, and even the clothes of ordinary people have to be taken off and taken away wherever they pass, which is not much different from setting a fire to burn that piece again.

This is very bad, and how many mines will have to be planted in the future economic construction work, and after the national hatred reaches a certain point, the mere suppression of rebellion can kill individuals.

Therefore, Qin Hao resolutely opposed it.

Li Shimin Dao also knew that Qin Hao was reasonable, but the problem was that his current ass was a general who led the army to fight, and on the battlefield, everything served the war, so he could not bear to send Guanzhong's soldiers to block the arrows.

"Zhenheng has always been full of wisdom, is there any good strategy?"

Qin Hao pouted and said: "No, anyway, the area around the Hunjiang River can't be slaughtered, the Holy Lord, you commanded the three armies at the age of sixteen, and you have not lost a single defeat in a hundred battles, this method should be up to you to think of." ”

Li Shimin smiled bitterly: "How can there be any way, some battles must be fought hard, unless we can find a way to lure the defenders out of the pass to win a decisive battle with our army, otherwise this dead man cannot be avoided, the difference is only who dies." ”

"Then find a way to get them out! As long as you think about it, there is always a way, my Datang fierce generals are like clouds and strategists are like rain, so I can't give up if I can't try or try. ”

Li Tao said behind him: "Zhenheng, we all understand your thoughts, you are a good boy with a soft heart, but war has never been a helpless thing, if Goguryeo has the courage to fight with us in the field, it will not be able to build this pass, and it is impossible to lure the defenders out." ”

Qin Hao was also a little stunned for a while, took out the map, gritted his teeth and said, "What if its supply is cut off?" Their supplies are also directly transported from Pyongyang, and if I go all the way north along the Hunjiang River, and take advantage of my sailors, I can raid and harass its grain routes, can I force them out? ”

Wei Chigong shook his head and said: "It's difficult, it's too difficult, Pyongyang is their capital after all, no matter how empty it is, the strength of the army will not be too low, and their grain routes are all by land, and your soldiers have no combat effectiveness when they go ashore." ”

Qin Hao said unrelentingly: "What about King Jiangxia? Let King Jiangxia harass Pyongyang with me? The kings of Jiangxia were all cavalry, and it was almost useless to fight in the mountains, and Pyongyang was a great plain for all generations, and Goguryeo lacked horses, so couldn't they rob them of their grain? ”

Li Daozong said: "I'm not afraid to go deep behind enemy lines, but the cavalry is maneuvering, once you go deep into the heart of Pyongyang, there is nowhere to find supplies, and your ship can't keep up with my speed." ”

Qin Hao looked at the map and thought for a while: "We can fight Shicheng and open up the third battlefield, as long as Shicheng is defeated, the king of Jiangxia can use this as a stronghold, harass the enemy army with Hu cavalry, create pressure, cut off the grain route of the defenders of Changbai Mountain, plus the 100,000 troops from the south of the Han River, let him Goguryeo blossom on three sides, take care of one and lose the other, wouldn't it be better?" In case the King of Jiangxia can succeed, Changbai Mountain will be a piece of paper. ”

Li Daozong said again: "You also said, my soldiers are all Hu cavalry, these people are okay in the field, but the siege of the city is not at all, who will fight this stone city?" Your transportation capacity is limited, at most 20,000 or 30,000 people at a time, and if you transport it, I can't transport others, if you transport infantry first, just the steady stream of reinforcements in the area of the Hunjiang River will be enough to suffer heavy losses before they take Shicheng, and the field battle in Goguryeo is slightly weaker, and it is not that it will not fight in the field at all. ”

Qin Hao seemed to be the same when he heard it, let's transport the cavalry, they have no supplies, and they are running around the world, and when they bring food over next time, I am afraid that they will not even be able to find them.

It doesn't seem to work to transport infantry, then Shicheng is only two hundred miles away from Pyongyang, and before Qin Hao can transport the cavalry, Goguryeo can make dumplings and eat them.

It is necessary to have cavalry and infantry together, and Shicheng can be defeated, and this strategy can be successful, but his transportation capacity is not enough, if he is half of the same transportation, it is likely to be a field battle, and the siege is enough embarrassing situation.

In the end, Qin Hao gritted his teeth and said, "In that case, I'll attack the city!" The full dispatch of my Qinggang sailor division is also twenty or thirty thousand people, and it is not good to arrange troops, but there is no need to set up a formation to attack the city, as long as the king of Jiangxia guarantees that I can attack the city with peace of mind and do not consider the matter of field warfare, I will be responsible for taking down the stone city. ”

Li Tao exclaimed: "Oh, Zhenheng, that Qinggang sailor is your hard work, every soldier is your heart's meat, my Datang salt tax for more than two years, to create such a strong team, if there is a little mistake, then you have to die of distress?" ”

Qin Hao's blood surged for a while, regardless of the said, "I can't take care of it, how can there be immortals in the war, it's a big deal to make up for the dead, I will take the stone city within three days, and then take the boat back to supply the king of Jiangxia!" ”

"Good!"

Li Shimin laughed and said: "Zhenheng's courage is commendable, this is the handsome man of my Tang Dynasty, this matter is so decided, Changbai Mountain here will be slowly fought by the local Han army and the Khitan alien army, you and Daozong together, and when Niu Jinda starts fighting, you will go to fight Shicheng." ”

"Yes!"

So, Qin Hao returned to the camp with a lot of enthusiasm.

I just went back to the camp to react for a while, but the more I thought about it, the more I felt that it was wrong.

Even a military novice like him can figure out tactics, can military gods like Li Shimin, Li Tao, and Li Daozong not be able to think of it? Who believes it!

Depend on! Lao Tzu was tricked by these old foxes! These people did it on purpose!

Qin Hao was depressed, aggrieved, grabbing his hair one by one! The people just guided them a little, and they couldn't wait to dig the pit and jump in, and it seemed that they still filled the soil by themselves.

After a while, Pei Xingjian came over and said, "Big brother, what's the situation?" ”

Qin Hao said with a stinky face: "New mission, as soon as the war starts on General Niu's side, we will go to Shicheng, and the Hu cavalry of the King of Jiangxia will cooperate with us." ”

Pei Xingjian was stunned: "What?" Hit New Rock? But we're a water army, big brother, haven't you shirked this kind of thing? ”

Qin Hao's face seemed to stink even more, and he said depressedly: "Excuse me, I took the initiative to ask for it." ”

Pei Xingjian's face was completely bad, attacking the city, none of them had any experience! Especially this unreliable big brother, I'm afraid I have to dump the blame on myself again.

Sure enough, I saw Qin Hao patting Pei Xingjian's shoulder affectionately and said, "Brother-in-law, these brothers of our Qing Gang Water Master, the peace of our Datang in the next ten years will all be on you." ”
