Since Xiang Jingwu ascended the throne, this is the first time he has issued an order to personally lead a large army and resist the Turkic invasion, and this order will become the most colorful stroke in his merit book, which is also unprecedented in the history of Great Chu's resistance to foreign invasions, Xiang Jingwu can make this decision, it is not easy. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Xiang Jingwu took a deep breath, but he felt a sense of relief, he glanced at Liu Fan deeply, and said, "Remember, Liu Fan, don't let me down in the future." ”
Liu Fan hurriedly made up his mind and expressed his attitude, only to see him say angrily: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, Liu Fan must respect the holy order, and dare not live up to the vast emperor's grace!" ”
.......................................................................................................
With the issuance of a series of orders for the whole people to prepare for war, the entire capital, counties, and Chu State fell into a busy preparation for war. At first, Liu Fan thought that there was nothing to do with him, so he asked the emperor's uncle to resign and beg to go home, but he didn't agree with this Jingwu, and said that he would not let him go, and finally promised that as long as Liu Fan fully assisted him in killing the Turkic soldiers, he ordered Liu Fan to be an official directly, fulfill Liu Fan as the marquis of Chushouting, and issued a decree to marry: marry Princess Anning to Liu Fan. It can be said that as long as the Turkic dog is beaten away, his Liu Fan's good days will come, as long as he does not rebel, he Liu Fan can enjoy a lifetime of glory and wealth, it is really an extremely tempting big cake, Liu Fan admitted, he has been deeply buried in this temptation and cannot extricate himself, so that as soon as Emperor Xiang Jingwu of the Ming Dynasty finished saying the gift, Liu Fan knelt down and received his order without saying a word.
"Liu Fan, if you have any way to retreat from the enemy, tell me about it."
"Your Majesty, the student thinks so, my Dachu still looks like he wants to sign a book and ask for peace on the surface, the envoy of the Turkic country is here, and the imperial court is still." Warm reception', and try to show a peaceful attitude, in order to paralyze this group of Turkic dogs, in the negotiation to delay as much time as possible, as long as you can delay, the longer it drags on, the more beneficial it will be to our army, secretly ask Your Majesty to give an order, order the army to move all the people of the villages to the neighboring counties, speaking of which, the students ask Your Majesty to strictly order, all soldiers can not harass the people when transferring the people, let alone use power for personal gain, fill their pockets, violators, no matter who they are, all will be beheaded immediately! At the same time as the people were transferred, all the grain had to be transported to the city, and if it could not be transported, it could not be burned or left for this group of Turkic livestock, and it was necessary to resolutely implement the goal: 'fortify the walls and clear the wilderness'. The students know that the Turkic army is basically cavalry, and our Chu army is mainly infantry, and it is unscientific to fight with them in the field....... Oh, it's not in line with the way of soldiers, the student remembers, the battle report said that the Turkic dog bypassed the Yumen Pass and sneaked into the territory of my Great Chu, and now it can be said that as long as our army defends the Turkic retreat route, this will naturally form a trend of 'closing the door and fighting the dog'. And this Turkic cavalry in the siege of the city, that is a weak explosion, as long as our army guards the city well, even if it is consumed, the Turkic dog can be consumed to death, and after a long time, the Turks will have no supplies, and they will naturally take the initiative to retreat. Externally, the imperial court can send envoys abroad to contact Karasuma, Xianbei, Qianghu and other countries, these countries are Turkic neighbors, the khans of these countries have coveted the fertile pastures of the Turkic khans for a long time, Your Majesty only needs to convey the intention of wishing several countries to divide the Turkic land, and then promise some benefits with these khans, for example: open up border markets, open caravan trade routes...... As long as they launch an attack on the Turkic lair, the main Turkic forces in my Great Chu will naturally have no intention of fighting after they know about it, and they will also take the initiative to withdraw from the army and seek self-preservation, and then only His Majesty will command the elite cavalry of our army to pursue, and then the north and south will form a flanking situation, even if the Turkic cavalry is powerful, it will be difficult to escape death, of course, my Da Chu can symbolically hit a few times, let these countries eat dogs themselves, our army takes advantage of this training to prepare for war, and they are exhausted, I can sit back and reap the benefits of the fisherman, and it will no longer be a dream to annex several countries in a row, and at this point, there will be no more war in the north! Your Majesty, can you give tea to the students? Liu Fan said such a big talk, and his mouth was about to be worn out.
Xiang Jingwu was listening to it, Liu Fan suddenly said such a sentence, and he didn't react for twelve seconds, Xiang Jingwu couldn't keep up with Liu Fan's out-of-the-box thinking, and couldn't help but laugh dumbly, and ordered someone to serve Liu Fan tea.
Liu Fan began to return the rules, the eunuch poured a cup, he drank a cup, in the end he didn't think it was enjoyable to drink like this, so he directly snatched the teapot over, drank it to the spout, and drank it heartily, the eunuch who served the tea wanted to stop Liu Fan's indecent behavior, but Xiang Jingwu didn't care, let Liu Fan's willfulness be free and easy, a gesture, the eunuch obediently retreated, Liu Fan drank a full time before putting down the teapot, and hiccups with satisfaction, which provoked Xiang Jingwu to laugh again, Liu Fan was a little embarrassed to laugh with him.
"Liu Fan, if you like to drink this tea, you will take a few catties away when you leave the palace, and when you finish drinking, you will enter the palace to get it, how about it?" Xiang Jingwu's face was very kind.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness and reward." Liu Fan behaved very "grateful".
Getting back to the point, "Liu Fan, can your method succeed?" After all, Liu Fan is not engaged in pyramid schemes, and Xiang Jingwu still questioned his idea.
"Your Majesty, the student thought it was okay. Every war of aggression and counterattack is a competition between two countries to compete with their own national endurance, and at the beginning, the losses of the countries fighting at home will be relatively large, but as long as the national spirit is there, the soul of the nation is there, the country will definitely not lose, and how many unrighteous divisions can last for a long time? ! Liu Fan began to instill thoughts to Xiang Jingwu, don't be afraid, dare to fight and dare to do, only those who dare to fight will succeed, and love to fight will win!
Liu Fan's words were like an anesthetic, corroding Xiang Jingwu's careful thoughts, hypnotizing his worried soul, and making him believe that he was not fighting alone, he was not alone, he was not human............ He Xiang Jingwu still has thousands of people of his own, and he still has an army that is loyal to him. This war is a blood-and-blood collision between nations, and only a victorious nation can spread its spirit and ideas farther and longer............
"Your Majesty, the student has one more word."
"Speak!"
"Because I have many villages in Dachu, I should delay the negotiations and paralyze the Turkic envoys for as long as possible. When moving, it is necessary to try to move at the same time, if not, first move the people of the villages near the Turkic dog station, and try to surround the Turkic dog as much as possible, and when this group of scum wants to jump out of the encirclement, they will be hit from all directions. As long as I can do this, I will win! Your Majesty, what do you think? ”
"I have already prepared in my heart," Xiang Jingwu paused, feeling a little sour and angry in his heart, and wanted to vent, "I know that you kid is unreliable, you speak lightly, if the plan cannot be implemented by then, I will use your head to sacrifice the flag first!" ”
