The army did not enter the city, but directly joined forces with the other two armies and stationed outside Jiaochuan City.

Li Ji convened a military meeting at the first time.

Li Ji sat at the top, and at the top of his side was the general of the right leading army, Niu Jinda, the general of the left military guard, and Liu Lan, the general of the left leading army, followed by Li Yexu, Li Jiye, and Du He.

He was a (Turkic) military general, and was once a general under the command of Jieli Khan, but he felt Li Shimin's benevolence and loyalty. Once, Li Shimin was playing with rabbits in the imperial garden, and he stubbornly lost his thinking and stepped forward to admonish.

Li Shimin was a little unimpressed, and after a few days, he was playing with rabbits again. Coincidentally, it was no coincidence that he once again let Zhi Zhi

Li Shimin was deeply moved and accepted his opinion. and issued an edict to marry Tang Gaozu Li Yuan's daughter, that is, his own sister Princess Jiujiang, to him, and entrusted him with important responsibilities from then on.

As a result, his stubbornness soared to the sky, and with his outstanding military talent, he emerged in Datang. In the ninth year of Zhenguan, he accompanied Li Jing to the expedition to Tuyuhun, made many military exploits, and became one of the twelve generals of the Tang Dynasty.

Niu Jinda and Liu Lan may not be famous in the world, but they are also quite good characters, and they are all generals who can fight well.

Obsessive thinking has the characteristics of a (Turkic) Turk, with a few ponytails and a bare head, looking very strong. Niu Jinda is also a fierce general, as strong as a cow. Liu Lan is a relatively weak scholar with a bit of Confucian temperament.

When Du He looked at the three of them, Li Ji said in a dull voice: "I have already received the news, an hour ago, Tubo captured Songzhou. What do you think about this? ”

Zhi Sili first said: "Since we should enter Songzhou as soon as possible, we must not let Tubo go on rampant." After a pause, he said: "I think we should divide the troops into two places, one to drag the cadres in Tibet, and the other to send a surprise army to attack their grain routes." This is my Datang territory, and we have a complete advantage. ”

Du He couldn't help but nod his head and praise secretly, he deserved to be called a famous general, if he used his method, it would not be difficult to break Tibet, and the only flaw was that it was difficult to win.

"I have a suggestion, the Tibetan army has won victories every day, and Songzhou has won the first battle, and the heart of pride must be numb, slackened, if you take advantage of the dark night to attack the ......" Niu Jinda's rough face showed a smile.

Du He will also smile in his heart, this Niu Jinda is thick and fine, the first battle between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo in history was because of his night attack and beheaded more than 1,000 levels, and Tubo saw the military might of the Tang Dynasty, and was so frightened that he didn't dare to fight again.

"Well, General Niu's suggestion is good, and the last general seconded it." Liu Lan nodded in agreement, and the other generals echoed one after another.

Du He was secretly anxious in his heart, why didn't Uncle Li tell these generals about the method of luring the enemy, and they all discussed it indiscriminately? At the moment, he couldn't care so much, and said: "Instead of attacking, it's better to defend!" ”

Li Ji seemed to be waiting for Du He to speak, and asked pointedly, "Why did Du Zhonglang say this?" ”

"Back to the General!" At this military meeting, as a soldier, Du He also knew that he could not be as casual as usual, and said solemnly: "The art of war: 'A good fighter, as long as he is invincible, is equal to the defeat of the enemy. 'The Tibetans live on the plateau, the army is coming, the battle line is elongated, and the supply is unfavorable. As long as our army holds on to it on the one hand, it attacks his grain route on the other, so that the opponent's grain and grass cannot be sustained. However, after more than a month, when the opponent's food was exhausted and had to retreat, our army once again took advantage of the victory to pursue. With my recuperating army, attack the enemy and retreat without food, if I can't win, I might as well wipe my neck and commit suicide! ”

Listening to what Du He said was interesting, all the generals laughed.

Zhi Sili nodded and praised: "I don't like this young general's tactics, but it is definitely a clever tactic." ”

Niu Jinda also nodded and said: "Indeed, Du Zhonglang will have this plan contrary to the general, and it is much less risky than the general, which can be described as foolproof, you can give it a try." ”

Liu Lan had no objections.

The biggest difference between a military general and a civilian official is that his surname is upright, he understands things, and there are few things of intrigue.

Although Du He was just a small lieutenant general, Niu Jinda and Liu Lan were not angry because of his opposing opinion, but accepted it humbly.

Li Ji said with a smile: "General Sili's idea is feasible, and General Du Zhonglang's idea can be described as perfect!" He stood up and shouted, "The generals are ...... orders."

All the generals in the camp stood up.

"Then the general of the stubborn Sili handpicked a surprise attack team to attack the opponent's grain road. Then march into Songzhou, only defend and not attack! All the generals are in their duties, and they must not slack off! ”

"Order!" The generals came out with orders, but Du He asked Li Ji to stop.

"General?" Du He called out respectfully.

"There are only you and me here, and there is no need to be polite to the virtuous nephew." Li Ji quietly looked at Du He and smiled mysteriously: "That strategy to lure the enemy deep is yours!" ”

"Ahh Du He's eyes widened.

Li Ji saw his stunned face, and explained with a smile: "The emperor never asked the general how to break the enemy when he sent the general, but just let the commander make his own choice. This time, it was unexpectedly predetermined, and it was obvious that someone else had offered a plan to break the enemy. But the emperor said that it was his own idea, and the only explanation was that the identity of the conspirator was too low to convince the public. I look at the whole army, only the virtuous nephew has this ability, today I will try, it is true! ”

Du He suddenly bowed deeply and said: "Uncle is really good, he can't hide anything from you, this is indeed the idea of the little nephew." ”

"Come, let's sit down and talk!" Li Ji pointed to the seat next to him and asked, "Since the strategy is yours, how are you going to fight!" I'd like to hear your opinion. ”

"Originally, the little nephew planned to lose directly in the battle, but recently discussed the art of war strategy with his uncle, which benefited the little nephew a lot, and his thoughts became clearer! In the past few nights, the little nephew has been analyzing the motives and purposes of Songtsen Gampo. My Datang is so rich and powerful, but why do they have the courage to fight? In the past, I thought it was Songtsen Gampo Yelang who was arrogant, so he lured him with deception, but recently I think about it and realize that I was wrong, and it was very wrong! ”

"Songtsen Gampo was able to accomplish such a great feat in seven years, and it is definitely not something that an arrogant leader of Yelang can do. So, he is not arrogant, but has another purpose. ”

"His purpose is to force me to compromise and want to welcome back the Great Minister Lu Dongzan. Because he clearly knows that the purpose of my Datang is to dominate the Western Regions, he will not collide with him, nor will he send a large army to deal with him. What's more, they have plateau natural dangers, and they are not afraid of my Tang Dynasty's hundred battles. His purpose is not to capture Chang'an, but to annihilate all our army, he wants to let the emperor know that they have the strength to become a threat to the Tang Dynasty, and they also have the strength to become an ally of the Tang Dynasty. As long as he does this, he will immediately admit his mistake to the emperor. If the emperor did not recognize their strength and led a large army to take revenge, they fled to the plateau and fought our army on the plateau. If our army withdraws, they can return. Such a round trip, unless my Tang Dynasty ventures into the hinterland of Tibet and fights to the death with one of them. Otherwise, it will affect the emperor's plan to open up the Western Regions, and it will be my Tang Dynasty who suffers. Therefore, he is not afraid that my Datang will not compromise with them, and he is not afraid that he will not return to Ludongzan and form an alliance with them, and he will avoid the strong enemy of my Datang, attack the weak countries around him, and encroach on them to enhance his strength. ”

"Therefore, the little nephew can now be sure that as soon as my army arrives at the front, they will take advantage of the night to loot the camp that night. This is where the defeat of our army begins, and so does the victory! ”

Du He clenched his fists, and his eyes revealed an unusual brilliance.
