Chapter 315: Fang Lai and Yingjie (3)

Li Wei has been silent, and his father still surprised him by this edict. I thought a lot, not only to weaken my own rights, but also because my father didn't understand military affairs, and he underestimated the enemy in Tibet, and there were other reasons. Therefore, he asked: "Li Xianggong, if I admonish, will my father listen to me?" Not only did he not listen, what would his father feel in his heart? ”

Li Jingxuan had already resigned in front of Li Zhi once, and then asked the prince to intercede, even if he didn't go to Qinghai, with the name of cowardice, his career would come to an end. It is very likely that as soon as Li Wei pleaded, an edict was issued later, asking him to pay tribute.

"Your Highness, what should the minister do?"

Li Wei wanted to say: "This is what you asked for." ”

Liu Renliang had few soldiers in Qinghai, and faced the impact of the Tubo general on Qinling, saying that he was the first god of war in the world, which was an exaggeration. Whether it is Liu Renliang, or Pei Xingjian, Xue Rengui, they are not much better than him, and there should be fierce generals, but on the Qinghai Plateau, there is no solution to the problem of Qinling! It's not Li Jingxuan, but Liu Renliang, if he goes out of the army easily and goes deep into the land of Dafeichuan and Wuhai, he will also be more than lucky.

In fact, Liu Renliang did a good job, with these troops, although he had no military achievements, he could protect himself. So let's fight a war of attrition, I need to consume my troops, and I need to consume Tibet's troops, which one will have the last laugh? This is the way to go to the army, and to schem! But this Li Jingxuan was hindered in the back, and Liu Renliang had no choice but to do so in order to protect himself. If you were to change yourself, you will also find a way to get out of Qinghai. If there is no evil cause, then what will be the evil effect?

These two people...... Alas! Li Wei let out a long sigh and said, "Li Xianggong, it's impossible to think about it. I can only say a few things, and you should pay attention to it. ”

"Please." Li Jingxuan said with a frowning face.

"It's a good thing to have a lot of soldiers, because there are many people and there is a lot of power. But in other words, the more soldiers there are, the more difficult it is to command, and without talent, it is impossible to command. Mutual coordination and mobilization are more cumbersome, and there are more large armies, less flexibility and mobility, especially our Korean army, which is dominated by infantry. "If Li Wei himself came to command the 180,000 troops, he would also retreat in his heart. However, the art of war, which I have learned from Pei Xingjian for a long time, is more organized this time, and he continued: "You can only take it step by step, and you can't make it easy to advance lightly, and let the Tubo people divide and cut it off." ”

"Wait," Li Jingxuan brought a piece of paper and wrote down Li Wei's words.

"Again, there are strengths and weaknesses, entering the army, once the war starts, life and death are divided, we must not use generals by seniority, but with ability, Wenchen is responsible for military discipline and materials, and military generals march and fight." Although, it's hard to know. What is a Wenchen and what is a military general? Military generals may not necessarily command and command, and Wenchen may not have a figure like Pei Xingjian. For example, the black tooth is often used as a deputy general manager, and as a main general manager, there may not be any soldiers who are convinced. When the expedition was carried out, it was also divided into one by one, one by one hundred or twenty thousand people, and now there are thirty or forty thousand, forty or fifty thousand people in one big one, and more than 10,000 people in the small one, that is, the front army, the rear army, the left army, the right road, the middle army and so on. But the actual situation is not like this, it is impossible for more than 100,000 people to be tied together, and it will be finished, and the score will be divided into several roads, and each road will be divided into several small roads, that is, the origin of one by one.

Thinking of this, Li Wei shook his head, he had led the army, even shot a person, and learned Li Jing's art of war, but now he imagined it in his mind, and he was a little confused. This Li Jingxuan led the army......

"In the end, I must remember that Tuyuhun has been cut into two, and the pro-Tang Tuyuhun have all moved to my Datang territory. Now the Tuyuhun in Qinghai are all pro-Tubo tribes, and Xue Rengui did not pay attention to it last time, which led to the defeat, and the Qinling sent out a total of 400,000 troops, half of which were drawn from Tuyuhun. They can't be left to chance. But there is one point, the life of the people of the various tribes in Tuyuhun is not very good, and this can be used. It is also necessary to note that some tribal people live a hard life and are still loyal to the chief, and some tribal people are dissatisfied with the chief. Only the latter can be exploited. Either they are party members, their lives are low, and the Tubo people despise them. This can also be wooed. ”

But would Li Jingxuan, who lived in the scholar's house, be willing to associate with these lowly Tibetans?

It seems that no matter what he commands, the court must be ready for the post-defeat pension!

Or instructed: "Slow down and defend steadily, every step forward, immediately set up camp and build a castle, as long as the defense is properly, the gunpowder trebuchet can come in handy." This is the commander of my army. If the army advances lightly, it will surely be defeated. ”

"But Your Highness, the imperial court has sent a large army, how can it be slow and stable?"

An army of more than 100,000 people, consumed every day, will be a staggering number. Not only grain and grass, but also weapons, and other materials, and the imperial court did not allow Li Jingxuan to march like a snail.

Li Wei is a little impatient, just like that, he may not be undefeated, and he still wants to be in a hurry to recover Dafeichuan and Wuhai? took a sip of tea, calmed down, and said: "If you don't allow it, you have to do it, although there will be people in the court who will impeach, but it is better than returning defeat." War does not have to kill many enemies to win. Then there is no longer the origin of the saying that those who are good at fighting have no outstanding military exploits. If you do that, then you have to be in a hurry. If you don't believe it, you can take a look at the information brought back by the scouts, because of the poor army and the dethronement of the people, the hearts of the people in all parts are unstable. If it is consumed, the Tibetan quasi-meeting will be in civil strife. But you were defeated, and with the momentum of a great victory, many counter-plots arranged by the imperial court also failed. As for the imperial court, it is up to Gu to resist for you, and when Liu Renliang comes back, I will persuade him, and then persuade Pei Shilang and other ministers to work together to persuade my father. It is attrition, if you can contain the Qinling army for two years, then you will see many changes that are beneficial to our Datang. ”

took another sip of tea, and told Li Jingxuan that these things were very difficult, and he had to explain them clearly and clearly so that he could understand them, not that he was stupid, but that he didn't know anything about military affairs. He also said: "It's really not good, Gu will continue to start construction this year, stop the two canals next autumn, allocate the taxes of the sea market, and support you." Li Xianggong, don't forget, there is still a gas epidemic, the Central Plains soldiers have only arrived in Qinghai, no matter how brave they are, they are not adaptable. The longer it drags on, the more it can adapt to the weather in Qinghai. However, it must be remembered that there can be no big defeat, because once it is defeated, the morale of the army will be unstable, and it will become a trend of fatigue among the veterans of the division. ”

Just the fatigue of the division veterans is enough for Li Jingxuan to grind for a long time.

Suddenly remembered something, and said: "Strictly speaking, this is not a gas epidemic, nor is it poisonous gas, not a miasma, cold miasma, Nanzhao has miasma, because there are few people, many places are uninhabited, and all kinds of plant and animal corpses **, with the evaporation of sunlight, the smoker is poisoned and dies." It's a fact. But Tubo is not, because the terrain is high, and there is a most important thing in the air, called oxygen, which is missing, so it is difficult to breathe, accompanied by various diseases. This has a process of adaptation, in this case, it can not be regarded as other diseases, indiscriminate treatment, send people to find a medicinal herb called Rhodiola, in Qinghai and Jiannan terrain high and cold places, this medicinal material is very common, Tubo is the most, used to soak in water or wine to drink. You can go to Qinghai and ask. ”

Li Wei has never been to the Qinghai Plateau, in his previous life, a friend went to get altitude sickness, and the prescription was mainly Rhodiola rosea.

Li Jingxuan wrote it down again and asked, "What else?" ”

"No, no more, you put aside your prejudices and ask Pei Shilang, his military talent is no less than that of Liu Xianggong."

Li Jingxuan said goodbye and really went to Pei Xingjian.

Pei Xingjian opened the note he had written down and looked at it, and said, "Rhodiola? ”

"It was His Royal Highness who said it, and he also said that there is a kind of oxygen in the air, and there is little in Qinghai, so I got the qi plague."

No matter how smart Pei Xingjian is, he will not know the oxygen of the divine horse, and he muttered: "Your Highness is talented and wise, in the past, Liang Jishou went to Nanzhao, but he did not follow His Highness's advice, and finally returned to the north in a hurry, and even Yaozhou City was lost. ”

"Yes, then Pei Shilang has any ideas to add?" Li Jingxuan said.

"If I am asked to say, Li Xianggong can only guard, even if it is advancing, it must be steady, not step by step, but half a step. It can only be consumed, not attacked. "The prince is saving face, what kind of attack! Li Jingxuan's ability was attacked, and he was about to return with a fiasco. He also said: "Actually, His Highness has already said almost, as long as you do it, you won't be a big success, but you won't be defeated." If the court blames you, I can argue for you. ”

"Thank you."

……

At this time, a battle in Qinghai was about to break out.

Successfully forced Liu Renliang back, and on Qinling also returned to Tubo, unwilling to fight with Liu Renliang, but willing to fight with other Tang generals, of course, it would be best if the prince could come in person. So a big war is coming, and he wants to return to Tibet to arrange.

Before leaving, he handed over the army to his younger brother Ronzanpo, and instructed: "After I leave, take stillness as movement, and don't covet small profits." When I come back, I will defeat the Tang army. ”

"Yes." On the praise of the Po Dao.

But it didn't take long to receive a piece of information, Liu Renliang left, and handed over the military affairs to Li Jinxing, Tubo knew Liu Renliang, Li Jinxing has been active in ***, and his fame has been a matter of recent years, so I don't know much. On Zanpo is somewhat contemptuous.

On the departure of Qinling, and the Tibetan army also withdrew to Dafeichuan to station, Li Jinxing was a little negligent. The people were commanding on the front line, but the Tubo people kept harassing them, and the material consumption was very heavy, especially in Huangzhong City on the front line. It is a small city, but because of its geographical location, it has become an important western gate of Shancheng.

Li Jinxing sent scouts to investigate, and then ordered the soldiers in the city to go out to cut firewood. Not only to make a fire for cooking, but also to keep warm. Even in March, when it is still a little cold at night, Qinghai is still a little cold.

When he heard this, he felt that this was a fighter plane.

occupied Huangzhong City, and waited until the gate of the Hehuang region was opened, but because of several fierce battles, the city was well stocked, and there were many thunderbolts and trebuchets that made him salivate. These two things made the Tibetan people suffer a lot. The reason why the damage was not great was that under the command of the second brother, the soldiers dispersed, avoiding the siege and reducing casualties. In this way, there was no choice to attack the city later. But the Tubo people got different natures, with these two things, the Tang Dynasty people could only defend the city, and the soldiers were concentrated, which could maximize their lethality.

Therefore, an army of 100,000 was urgently mobilized, and the garrison of Tubo did not have so many people, mainly Tuyuhun people. Then suddenly attacked Huangzhong City.

When Li Jinxing received this news, the Tubo people were already thirty miles away. Li Yifu asked in a disdainful manner, "What should I do?" ”

Originally, the number of defensive soldiers in the city was limited, but now cutting firewood and grass can not be cut out of the city, and some have gone to a far place, and it is unlikely that they will be recalled immediately. A notice that he had to return again, and most of them were infantry, so he left the car pulling firewood and left it too late.

Li Jinxing said: "I was careless. ”

As he was talking, smoke and dust billowed in the distance, and the vanguard army of Tubo had arrived.
