Although Garqinling attached great importance to this war and made corresponding preparations, he did not take the initiative to attack, because he knew that the generals of the Tang army were not easy to deal with at all, and it was almost impossible to win by taking the initiative to attack, not to mention that he also expected that this war was actually mainly a confrontation, and he could wait until the Tang army withdrew without spending a single soldier, so in this case, it was better to confront it for a long time, and the Tang army had no intention of launching an attack anyway.

Of course, during this period, Garqinling did not slack off in the slightest, because he also knew that this was a war after all, everything was not static, and sometimes a little change in details could affect the entire battle situation.

For this, as a generation of famous generals, Garqin Ling still knows deeply.

During this period, Garqinling also implemented some means, the most important of which was to send an envoy to secretly ask to see Empress Wu, and made it clear to Empress Wu that as long as Empress Wu could make the Tang army retreat, then they would immediately accept Empress Wu's appeasement and pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty.

After the Empress Wu saw the envoy of the Garqin Mausoleum, the joy in her heart could be said to be indescribable: "Haha, this is really a charcoal in the snow, originally I saw the attack of the three-way army, the Garqin Mausoleum was invincible for a long time, and I was still a little anxious for them, but I didn't expect them to have such a plan, since this is the case, then I can plan and plan well, how to make Xian'er this kid ugly, and I sit back and reap the benefits, hum, although the Garqin Mausoleum has the intention of using me, but I don't care, For it is indeed beneficial to him and to me. ”

As for what kind of losses Datang will suffer during this period, Empress Wu didn't care about this at all, but An An hoped that the more losses the better, because the more losses, the greater Li Xian's culpability, and he could be more confident that Li Xian would be forcibly suppressed.

Therefore, after that, under the instruction of Empress Wu, in the Chang'an court, the people represented by Pei Yan and Xue Yuanchao began to launch round after round of offensive against Li Xian.

After Pei Yan and Xue Yuanchao finished speaking, Zuo Servant Shot, Cui Zhiwen, the third product under the Tongzhongshu Sect, Wei Zhiwen of the Ministry of Officials, Pei Judao, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, Su Liangsi, the Shangshu of the Household Department, Sima of the Xiangwangfu, Liu Yizhi, the Zhongshu Waiter of the Inspection School, Fan Lubing, the Huangmen Waiter, Yuan Wanqing, the Zhongshu Sheren, and Liu Jingxian, the Huangmen Waiter, also seconded the proposal, asking Li Xian to think about the military plan and withdraw the army quickly.

Li Xian saw that those people couldn't wait to show their fox tails, and couldn't help but sneer secretly in his heart, and said slowly: "All the princes are literati, and they don't know anything about military affairs at all, thinking that when I was in the Tang Dynasty, it took more than two years, and the battle of Dafeichuan in the first few years took more than a year, and the battle of Silla last year lasted for nearly three years. Hehe, the expedition to Tibet involves a lot of things, and it has cost a lot of money and food so far, and now that the harvest is about to be harvested, you actually proposed to withdraw from the army, which is really a bit funny. Don't talk about this matter anymore, the army is marching, and there is no reason to withdraw without authorization! ”

"However, His Royal Highness the Prince, the two armies have been facing each other for two months, and Wechen learned that the two sides have not even fought, if this continues, when will our army win? This is war, and it consumes money and food, not child's play. Pei Yan appeared in the court with a neutral face before, but since Li Xian was appointed to supervise the country this time, this Pei Yan has been-for-tat everywhere, constantly making things difficult for Li Xian, revealing his true colors.

However, Li Xian didn't care at all, because he knew deeply that this Pei Yan was just a politician, and there was no threat at all, if it weren't for his close relationship with Cheng Wuting, Zhang Qianqiao, Liu Jingxian and others, I am afraid that he would not be taken seriously by Li Xian.

Li Xian explained with a smile: "Pei Xiang and General Pei Xingjian are the same sect, and they are good friends with Cheng Wuting, Zhang Qianqiao and other generals, but they haven't even asked them for military advice?" The two armies are fighting, if they really decide to win or lose, it will be over in a few hours, but the most important thing in the war is the confrontation between the two armies, the battle between Cao Cao and Yuan Shaoguandu in the past, the confrontation lasted for a year, this is only a decisive battle of Wuchao, which took only two hours; The confrontation between the two sides lasted for three years, and there are countless examples of wars like this in history, in fact, even if Pei Xiang doesn't understand military affairs, he can't help but read history books? If this is the case, Pei Xiang's name of repairing the history of the country will have to be carefully scrutinized. ”

"You, you, this, this ......" Pei Yan was ridiculed by Li Xian like this, his face suddenly turned purple, and he couldn't speak, because Li Xian's words were very uncomfortable.

In fact, it is relieving to think about it, Pei Yan is not unaware of the relevant war cases in history, but he pretends to be confused and reprimands Li Xian's mistakes, but such accusations are really a little pale and powerless in Li Xian, who is familiar with the art of war and historical classic war examples.

Pei Yan can be said to have touched a nose of ash this time, his attack was not only ineffective, but was directly counterattacked by Li Xian, the slap was crackling, even if he was angry in his heart, he had nothing to say, this kind of grievance and depression made Guo Zhengyi and the others on the side secretly exclaim, as happy as eating ice cubes in the summer.

At this time, he saw Zhongshu Ling Xue Yuanchao suddenly said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that we are almost at harvest time, I don't know what this means?" ”

Li Xian smiled and asked rhetorically, "I don't know what Xue Xiang thinks he means by this?" ”

Xue Yuanchao heard this, and said with a faint smile: "Can Weichen think that this battle is about to be decided, or that I Jun is about to win?" ”

"Well, you can think so." Li Xian smiled and nodded and said.

"Oh? I wonder when our army will be able to win? Xue Yuanchao thought he had a plan and asked further.

saw Li Xian smiled faintly: "In March, there will be good news." ”

"Huh? What the? How is this possible? Xue Yuanchao's eyes widened when he heard this, and his face was incredulous, but he still quickly adjusted his state and said to Li Xian: "This is what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said, if our army can't win, what should His Royal Highness the Crown Prince do?"
