In the imperial court, the king of Qin knew the military movements well, and after a little thought, he said: "The battle of Pingding Fu Gongyou is already in control, and it is coming to an end. I just don't know how many tribes the Turks gathered this time, the geometry of the people, and the size of the scale. ”

King Qi said: "No matter how big or small it is, come one to fight one, and two to destroy one pair." Father, son is on standby at any time, and begs father for permission to lead the army into battle. ”

That's really youthful and vigorous!

The sage didn't even lift his eyelids, Princess Pingyang looked at him and didn't speak, King Qin frowned slightly, and said: "The battle with the Turks has a great relationship, how can it be child's play?" You have such rash words before the war starts, if in our army, first beat thirty sticks, and then say anything else! ”

King Qi was not convinced, and before he could speak, the sage had already frowned and said, "Enough!" Your second brother and sister are both people who are skilled in military affairs and can fight well, and the two of them have not yet spoken, when will it be your turn to speak! ”

King Qi pursed his mouth, forcibly endured the unhappiness in his heart, and responded: "Oh! ”

Princess Pingyang said: "The year before last, Jieli came to attack, was beaten by our army, and returned defeated. Jieli is not a mediocre talent, if the war starts again this year, it will definitely come for victory, and the scale should not be small, and it will definitely be menacing. Those who come are not good, our army should not be underestimated, and it is necessary to prepare for a tough battle as soon as possible. ”

Princess Pingyang's words were approved by the saint and the king of Qin. The sage said: "In this way, in order to make early plans to meet the Turks, Yang Wengan's rebellion must be resolved quickly and without delay!" Otherwise, when the Turks invade, there will be both Fu Yougong and Yang Wengan, which will inevitably involve energy! Compared with the Turks, these two are not a cause for concern. ”

Others don't know, Xue Lang lacks the ...... to know the process and outcome of this war

This time the Turks attacked, it was the Turkic Khan, Jieli Khan two units gathered, gathered all the troops of the two divisions, and the troops pointed directly at Chang'an, which already threatened the survival of the nascent Tang Empire.

At that time, it was the rainy season, and the continuous heavy rain in Guanzhong blocked the grain route and the rain on weapons, and the court and the army were worried and demoralized. At the critical moment, it was still the Qin king Li Shimin who used Li Jianjie to divide the alliance of the Turks, persuade the Turks to form an alliance with the Tang Dynasty, and be brothers with the Turks, so that the Turks could withdraw their troops.

This battle, which can be said to be unwinnable and undefeated, only suspended the Turkic offensive.

So, Xue Lang said: "Saint, the war is a one, the minister doesn't understand, but the minister has something here and wants to remind the saint." ”

"A virtuous son-in-law is so."

"Whoa!"

Xue Lang said: "It's already June now, and if the Turks attack, it will be roughly within two months from July to August. However, this year's weather has seen several heavy rains since spring and summer, and the rain came earlier and more than last year. At that time, if there is a war, the weather will be fine and naturally good, and if there is continuous heavy rain, how to go through the grain route and how to preserve the weapons must be considered and arranged in advance. ”

The current roads, even if they are the best, the official roads that are maintained, and even the Zhuque Street in Chang'an City, are all dirt roads, and the sunny days are fine, but if they encounter continuous heavy rain, they will inevitably be muddy, and the carriages and horses are transported with heavy loads, which are greatly affected by the road conditions. In case of continuous heavy rain, if the baggage is transported again. Grain and grass, as you can imagine, must be very difficult.

Xue Lang said: "The so-called soldiers and horses have not moved the grain and grass first, please make plans in advance." ”

The saint was silent, and Princess Pingyang and King Qin also frowned, staring and pondering-

The situation that Xue Lang said has a great possibility to become a reality. The year before last, he said that the grassland snow disaster did indeed happen, and there was evidence of this incident, Xue Lang's assertion on the weather was not a man of his own words.

The sage paced back and forth in the main hall, walked back and forth five or six times, and said categorically: "The king of Qin, Shimin, leads the troops to fight in Ningzhou, and must assess Yang Wengan's rebellion as quickly as possible!" If you return to the court in victory, your father will make you prince! ”

"Shhh

Not only the King of Qin, but also the people present all changed their colors, and even the princess of Pingyang, who was the deepest in the city, couldn't help but open her mouth slightly, her face full of surprise.

King Qin was stunned for a moment, then rejoiced, and replied loudly: "Oh! ”

"Father!"

King Qi, who was closest to the crown prince, knelt down, with an anxious look on his face: "Father's words to change the crown prince's words, but is it true?" Although the eldest brother is at fault, he is not guilty of this, and he begged his father to retract the preface. ”

Princess Pingyang's expression was unpredictable, and she asked, "Father's words, isn't it a joke?" ”

King Qin raised his head, looked at King Qi, and then looked at Princess Pingyang, his expression was dark and uncertain.

Xue Langcai ignored his thoughts, and said solemnly: "The position of the crown prince is related to the society of the country, how can it be allowed so easily, the sage can know what kind of turmoil the sage will cause to the court if he says casually today?" The Turks are about to invade, but the saint is so rash at this time, where is the safety of the country in danger? The minister will never agree with this matter! ”

Princess Pingyang also said: "The words of the concubine are the meaning of the daughter, please think twice!" ”

The saint's expression was a little embarrassed, he waved his hand, and said, "Erlang, let's go and get the talisman, and I'll talk about it when I return." ”

What can King Qin do, he can only receive the order: "Oh! ”

King Qin rode back to Chang'an, received a talisman, and prepared to order troops and leave for Ningzhou. The saint couldn't stay in Renzhi Palace any longer, so he drove back to Chang'an on the second day.

The saint is going back, Xue Lang and Princess Pingyang naturally can't stay, and they follow the saint to Chang'an. Only the king of Qi, his face was full of gloom, and the sage did not agree to his request to lead his troops to the Turks. Compared with the young King of Qin, who has no talent in military affairs, the sage obviously belongs to the King of Qin, and the prestige of the King of Qin's ability to fight well is piled up with great military exploits, and the King of Qi is too tender and unreliable compared to it, this prince has a black history of leaving the city and his subordinates and fleeing alone.

On the second day after returning to Chang'an, the sage held a court meeting non-stop, and Princess Pingyang was also summoned to participate in the court meeting, and Xue Lang was naturally on the list.

The palace people carried the map, pointed to the map, and the urgent reports received by the imperial court one after another, everyone expressed their opinions. Feng Deyi said: "The weather sequence is fixed, and it cannot be violated." For today's plan, the only way to plan is to plan early. If the grain and grass are raised in advance, will the fortune pass? ”

Xue Lang made a silent calculation in his heart, and said: "The new grain harvested in the summer has just been put into the warehouse, if the rebellion against Yang Wengan takes ten days to take a short time, with the grain and grass accumulated now, it should not be difficult to deal with it." ”

Then, Xue Lang gave a general overview of the existing grain storage data, which made the courtiers nod frequently, and also admired his erudition.

Pei Lin said: "The grain and grass are enough, and the only thing to worry about now is where to store it!" Also, if there is a continuous heavy rain, how to save the weapon. ”

Now there are no waterproof things such as lubricating oil, and iron-cast weapons are rusty in heavy rain.

Xiao Yu said: "Grain, grass, and weapons are all important things, if you want to transport them in advance, not to mention where to transport them, whether they can be entrusted or not is a problem. Yang Wengan's rebellion has not yet been quelled, if it is ......"

Although Xiao Yu didn't finish speaking, everyone understood what he meant. Not all of the governors of the states are loyal to the imperial court, and since the first year of Wude, there have been several states with a history of assassination and rebellion. If the grain, grass, and weapons are stored in the states first, and if someone rebels against this move, it will be an enemy!

The impact of the weather on the war, Mo said that in ancient times, even in modern times with airplanes and artillery, it was also a factor that needed to be considered. The imperial court held this court meeting, and although it was helpless on the weather issue, it also reached a consensus-

If the Turks invade and really encounter heavy rain and continuous weather, how to transport ordnance has become the primary issue on the desk of the imperial court!

When the next dynasty came, Princess Pingyang went home with Xue Lang. The princess said: "The year before last, the heavy snow, Youyang you provided the bed crossbow to help King Qin break the enemy, this year's heavy rain, Youyang has no way?" ”

Xue Lang smiled bitterly and said, "Although I am very happy that Your Highness has confidence in me, I am not a Tinker Bell either!" ”

What is Tinker Bell? “

The princess asked curiously. Xue Lang said: "A fool who seems to be omnipotent and can come up with a solution no matter what problem he encounters." ”

The princess was puzzled, Xue Lang had to roughly tell her the plot of the comics, and Her Royal Highness the princess was quite fascinated when she heard it: "I can't imagine that there is such an interesting story, Youyang is good at drawing, why don't you draw this story to me?" ”

Xue Lang: "......"

I feel like I've dug a hole and buried myself!
