Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "Xuan Cheng, how did you come up with this style of play?" ”

Wei Zhengzheng said: "If Liyang raises troops, as long as he can cross the Yellow River, he can directly take Zhuo County, which is less difficult than attacking Dongdu, and if Yang Xuangan wants to trick those boatmen and migrant workers into rebelling with him, he must lie that a certain leading general is rebelling, so that he can gather tens of thousands of troops to raise troops in the initial stage. ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "What Xuan Cheng said is extremely true, what you can think of, Li Mi will definitely be able to think of, but I think they will not take this road in the end." ”

Wei Zheng's face changed: "Why is this?" ”

Wang Shichong's eyes flashed green: "Because Yang Xuangan's character is the kind of arrogant and impatient, there is no famous city and county in Hebei, and there is no big granary, although Liyang is an important logistics base, but Yang Guang has long listened to my advice in order to prevent Yang Xuangan, and did not let a large number of grain fleets pass here, but diverted to Shandong." ”

"Therefore, if Yang Xuangan wants to quickly focus on the homeless people and thieves, and increase his momentum in the early stage, unless he directly captures Zhuojun, this difficulty is higher than attacking the Eastern Capital, because on the way to the Eastern Capital, there is at least Luokou Cang, and when he returns to a large warehouse like Luocang, he can open a warehouse and release grain after being captured, and quickly attract the people in the Eastern Capital to join."

"Yang Xuangan is a son of a family, as long as he raises troops, he can't wait for everyone in the world to know overnight, and petty fights are completely unattractive to him, those Hebei prefectures and counties. Even if it is broken, it is just an act of rogue behavior. You must know that even people like Dou Jiande have captured Qinghe County. killed the county official to avenge his whole family, so Yang Xuangan would not choose such a way to play at all, only Dongdu, or Daxing, or Jiangdu, was the place he really wanted to capture. ”

Wei Zheng nodded: "What the lord said is extremely true, but Li Mi is by Yang Xuangan's side after all, and if he captures Zhuojun." You can directly cut off the back road of the million-strong army of the Sui Dynasty, the army must not be short of food for a day, the last time Yuwen said that the whole army collapsed because of the lack of food and could not fight, this battle example will not be indifferent to Li Mi, after all, the army is gambling with the lives of the whole clan, face, temper, these things, to take a back seat. ”

Wang Shichong smiled and waved his hand: "Li Mi's problem is that he is resourceful and not good at decisiveness, and his ears are too soft, so it is difficult to persevere. This can be seen from his matter to Hu Sizheng, obviously he recognized that he had to win over Hu Sizheng. But he knew that Yang Xuangan was a very principled and trustworthy person, and he would never agree with him digging into the corner of my ally like this, so he could only come behind Yang Xuangan's back, because he knew that as long as he mentioned this matter, Yang Xuangan would definitely oppose it, and even would rather inform me and prevent him from doing so. ”

"It's the same with the matter of raising troops, Li Mi will definitely analyze the pros and cons to Yang Xuangan, and help him choose a few routes to march, Xuancheng You said that sending troops to take Zhuo County must also be mentioned by him, but he will not insist on this way of playing, but will give the choice to Yang Xuangan. Yang Xuangan raised troops only for revenge, what he needed was to destroy the foundation of the Sui Dynasty in a war, so he must attack the state and plunder the county, and create the greatest momentum, with this alone, he will definitely not take the Zhuojun route, nor will he go to Daxing, but directly attack the eastern capital, and break the city in a battle, so that he can get the families of hundreds of officials and generals, and he can also accelerate the children of the family to fall to his side. ”

Wei Zheng's brows softened: "But according to what the lord said, he can't capture the eastern capital." But in front of the red whisk girl just now, I can't speak, and now that she's gone, I have to mention, since Li Mi is willing to dig even Hu Sizheng and can dig, won't he have a tandem among the children of the family in the Eastern Capital? If someone responds and opens the city gate, no matter how many troops in the eastern capital, no matter how strong the city defense, no matter how powerful the weapons to defend the city, it will be useless. ”

Wang Shichong smiled and shook his head: "Xuan Cheng, you still ignore two points, that is, the mentality of the family and the ability of Fan Zigai, the defender of the city. Let's talk about the mentality of the family first, these people do not have a deep hatred for Yang Guang, they do not have a grudge against their father like Yang Xuangan, and there are not a few who are as ambitious as Li Mi, and they still want to rebel and be self-reliant during the Taiping period. ”

"These Guanlong family members, most of them just guard the ancestral foundation and title, Yang Guang moved the capital, although the Guanlong family is dissatisfied, but in the past few years, the war has continued, and it is the people at the bottom who are suffering, but these people have the opportunity to win on the battlefield and be knighted, so it is possible for them to complain at ordinary times, but it is really impossible to go out like Yang Xuangan and Li Mi, and tie the heads of the whole clan to the waistband."

Wei Zheng nodded: "What the lord said is very true, usually they ride horses and shoot hunting together, drink wine and eat meat, scold a few words about the current situation and complain a few words due to Xingzhi, that is human nature, but if you really want to rebel, it is estimated that nine out of ten people are unwilling." Li Mi dared to really pull the rebellion, and only Hu Sizheng was a person like Hu Sizheng who had already followed us and had no future in the Sui Dynasty, and this kind of person was very rare in the Guan Long family. This is also the reason why the lord has only dared to contact local heroes like Xue Ju and Dou Jiande for so many years, but he did not dare to really discuss the matter with a few sons of the family, that is, Li Jing and Han Shige are willing to fight the world with the lord. ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "Yes, without the usual early planning and careful preparation, it is difficult to succeed only by impromptu intentions." It is impossible for too many people to know about such a major event as rebellion, once the secret is leaked, it will be a catastrophe, and the collaborators I selected will either have a deep hatred with the Sui Dynasty, such as Yang Xuangan, Xu Gai, and Xiao Miao. Either they are ambitious and unwilling to be a strong man in the local area for the rest of their lives, such as Dou Jiande, Xue Ju, Guzang businessmen, etc., but I also have enough countermeasures against these people, so that they don't dare to report me at all. ”

"What I can't do, it's difficult for Yang Xuangan to do, because after all, he lost power in Yang Guang's dynasty, and he can't bring those family members official positions and knighthood benefits. The Sui Dynasty has not yet reached the point where the people of the world are confused, and it is impossible for him to make too many friends with people who want to rebel, so he will definitely choose to attack the Eastern Capital, and only by directly conquering the Sui Capital can the family in the world decide that the Sui Dynasty is exhausted, and will sincerely take refuge in him. ”

Wei Zheng smiled: "The lord is high, so in this way, it is impossible for someone in the Eastern Capital to respond to Yang Xuangan and open the city gate?" ”

Wang Shichong smiled and waved his hand: "There will be a few such people, and Yang Xuangan is not without help, but this is the second question I want to say, that is, Fan Zigai will not let these people succeed." (To be continued.) )
