Chapter 199 Strategic Mobilization
A group of people went to Li Er's combat staff room, Li Er pulled out a picture and spread it on the table, and the others helped to hold the four corners with a paperweight. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Li Er took off a whip from the wall and pointed to the place on the map that represented Tuyuhun, "Everyone, this is Tuyuhun, this is Chang'an, now let's take a look at the situation between the two and refer to what to do."
Several ministers leaned on the map, carefully looked at the city marked above, Chang'an to the west all the way to Qinzhou, Lanzhou, Shanzhou, and then far away is Liangzhou and Ganzhou, this generation is almost the best place in the Hetao area, and then go west, for the Tang people at this time, the impression is the yellow sand in the sky, and today we think of this place when we think of the same as cutting cakes and mutton skewers, and other things are completely unknown.
The eldest grandson Wuji carefully looked at the map for a while, and pointed to the two points on the map, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the war should not be considered to win, but to lose first, here, Lanzhou and Shanzhou are two key points, and they should be guarded by heavy troops, in case the attack fails, at least the enemy will not take advantage of the victory to pursue and harm Chang'an"
Li Er looked at the two places that the eldest grandson Wuji pointed to, "The auxiliary machine is reasonable"
However, some people disagree with this view, and the military department Shangshu Hou Junji came out with his fists in the ranks, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what the eldest grandson said is too careful, and from the minister's point of view, a small Tuguhun is not enough to worry about, not to mention that our army now has Zhenguan five-type rifles and cannons, which can be done lightly, relying on the powerful attack power of our army, before the enemy reacts, the enemy is caught off guard, and it can be swept with a drum"
Hearing Hou Junji's proposal, Li Er's first thought was not the question he said, but thinking about this person, according to the information he saw, in order to support Cheng Qian, this thing actually wanted to have another Xuanwumen bloody case in order to support Cheng Qian, which shows that this person's ambition is not small.
But then again, Hou Junji's ability is worthy of his ambition, and in the official history, it was Hou Junji and Li Jing who conspired to destroy Tuyuhun and then kill Gao Changguo.
Now according to the proposal of the national teacher, he launched the battle against Tuyuhun a few years in advance, but he didn't expect Hou Junji to pop out again, and the trick he thought was exactly the same as before, Li Er thought for a while, and remembered that a noun is very suitable to apply to the idea of Hou Junji, that is, blitzkrieg!
Putting aside personal grievances, Li Er's approving Chonghou Junji nodded, "Hou Shangshu's idea is good, but what the auxiliary machine just said is also right, in this way, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, it is better to send someone to be stationed here in Shanzhou, let's discuss it, who is better to be stationed here?" ”
The ministers exchanged for a while, Shanzhou is now equivalent to the country of the Tang Dynasty, and it is afraid that something will go wrong when it is wrong to send ordinary people, Li Er blames, and everyone unanimously elected Li Daozong, the king of Rencheng, as the head of the march of Shanzhou Road, and sat in Shanzhou.
As for who to send to attack Tuyuhun, everyone glanced at each other, and Xiao Yu proposed a candidate, "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that if he wants to attack Tuyuhun according to Hou Shangshu's assumption, he is afraid that he will use the new army, and among the people present, only Li Jing and General Li Ji have dealt with the new army, I think it is better to choose a leader from the two."
The other ministers all nodded yes, and Li Eryi thought about it, "It's just that Mao Gong is now in Bingzhou, I'm afraid that I won't be able to get out of it for a while, so let's send Li Jing as the general manager of this expedition, pharmacist, can you afford this heavy responsibility?" ”
Now as the prime minister, Li Jing didn't expect that he would be able to take charge of the army again at his age, and he could still mix up military merits when he was dying, which seemed to be good, and he was also a little moved at the moment, "As long as Your Majesty is willing, the minister is willing to shroud the horse leather"
Li Er waved his hand, "Don't say such bad words, since that's the case, you go down and prepare, hand over the work at hand, and let's give Tuyuhun a quick solution."
Li Jing hugged his fists and said yes, determined the one who sat in the town, determined the main attack, but there was still some lack of help, Li Er began to point again, "Hou Shangshu, since the idea of a quick attack was proposed by you, then you will be the deputy of this attack, help the pharmacist, remember not to take the enemy lightly, if there is anything wrong, I will ask for you"
Hou Junji's excited urine was about to come out, "Your Majesty, rest assured, something went wrong, and the ministers will not be ashamed of themselves."
Li Er waved his hand, "Okay, auxiliary, you remember, order, Liangzhou Governor and the head of the last road march Li Daliang, Minzhou Governor, Chishui Road march head Li Daoyan, Lizhou Thorn Shi Yanze Road march head Gao Yongsheng, several people immediately organized the sergeants under their accounts to prepare, cooperate with General Li Jing and Hou Shangshu, and conquer Tuyuhun in the near future"
The eldest grandson Wuji worked hard to write down Li Er's orders, "Your Majesty, you have memorized everything, is there anything else you want to order?" ”
Li Er leaned on the table and thought for a while, "That's all for the time being, in addition, the household department has prepared all the grain and grass, and the Ministry of Industry, urge the craftsmen to work overtime and make more firearms before going out, as for the Eagle Yangwei, the northwest wind is strong, don't go so much, and tell Krupp to send someone to bring a few planes for battlefield reconnaissance."
Eldest Sun Wuji nodded "Yes"
"As for the new army, how much has been trained over there now?"
Hou Junji is the secretary of the military department, he is in charge of this matter, and he stood up and replied at the moment, "Except for the 3,000 people brought back to Shuzhong by General Cheng, there are only 30,000 people who are still training in the army, and these 30,000 people, of which 5,000 are new rifles, and the rest are old-fashioned muskets."
"The other is artillery, Zhenguan Type 5 cannons can only be used about 100 now, and front-loading guns still account for the vast majority"
Li Er muttered, "Hey, the gap, if only these 30,000 people were equipped with new rifles and cannons, maybe we don't have to think too much, just push it flat, I now remember what the national teacher said, in the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy and tricks are useless."
The ministers also looked lonely, and Hou Jun gathered left to look at it and looked at it, "Your Majesty, don't be discouraged, in fact, the new army has added a more fierce guy not long ago, and he is old."
When Li Er heard this, he came to the spirit, "What kind of guy?" ”
Hou Junji thought for a while, "A gun bigger than a Type 5 cannon, with two wheels, half a person high, and a water tank on the barrel of the gun, you can add water to it, I asked the craftsmen of the Ministry of Engineering what it meant, and they said that it cooled the barrel."
"Oh, by the way, this gun is powerful not because it's big, but because the firepower is old, we've seen the rifle, we know that you have to pull the bolt when you hit it, this gun doesn't have to be the same as the one close to the national teacher, the craftsmen line up the bullets one by one with a cloth belt, it takes time to shoot, one gunner pulls the trigger, and the other sends bullets inside, the time they test fire, I went to see it, I drip, the bullet hit like rain, it costs money"
Hou Junji described it like this, Li Er guessed what it was, and immediately laughed, "Haha, the sky is as people wish, I didn't expect it, these people actually even got Makqin out, okay, okay, with this sharp weapon, this victory is a little more"
The eldest grandson Wuji didn't care about this matter, and when he heard Li Er praise this Makqin so much, he wondered, "Your Majesty, what Makqin is really as powerful as Hou Shangshu said?" ”
Li Er looked at a few people, "Is it powerful, let's go and see if it's okay, let's go, clean up here, let's go to the new army, let's see what they have become if we haven't seen them for a few days" (to be continued.) )
