After inspecting the barracks, Duhe ordered an impromptu meeting to learn about the current situation. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

For more than a month, Du He has been in Zhangxiong, and he can know a general idea of the affairs of Tubo from Tayue Liuxiang, and he is not very familiar with the affairs in his camp, and he needs to have a good understanding of the situation in the military camp.

News of the meeting soon reached the generals.

When the news reached Niu Jinda and Xin Fang'er's ears, the two of them were chatting together, talking about everything.

Niu Jinda was a general in Wagangzhai in his early years, and Qin Qiong, Cheng Biting Jin had a good relationship, when Wajungang failed, he and Qin Qiong, Cheng Biting Jin and many other generals were cornered, and fell to Wang Shichong. However, because he was dissatisfied with Wang Shichong's deceit, he defected to Li Tang with Qin Qiong and Cheng Yanjin, and was ceremoniously received by Li Shimin, becoming one of Li Shimin's confidants and generals. In the seventh year of Zhenguan, Niu Jinda served as the commander of Hanjiang Prefecture, and when the people of Jiazhou and Lingzhou rebelled, Niu Jinda led the soldiers of Zhangjiang Prefecture who were guarding here to defeat it and put down the rebellion. In the eighth year of Zhenguan, Tubo failed to ask for relatives, and led troops to attack. Li Ji lured the enemy deep and lured the Tubo army into an ambush circle. Niu Jinda led the army of his headquarters and was the first to defeat the defense line laid by the retreat of Tubo, and made great achievements for the Tang Dynasty.

Xin Fang'er is also the same, he is also Li Tang's general, when Li Shimin first showed his head, he was a junior officer of Li Tang, and he went all the way up with his military exploits. In the Tang Dynasty's campaign against Gaochang, Xin Fang'er pursued the Western Turkic deserters with Hou Junji, and led the right army alone to join forces with Hou Junji, defeating the 80,000 Turkic army, and thus being promoted to the general of the right leading army.

Both of them are veterans of the Tang Army, they know each other and have a good relationship. Usually divide things, it's rare to see. Taking advantage of the opportunity to gather troops to fight, the relationship between the two heated up and they often chatted together.

When Du He summoned them to a meeting, the two generals were stunned one after another.

Niu Jinda pouted and said: "I still know that when I came back, I disappeared for a month inexplicably, and as soon as I came back, I commanded this and that, what a big shelf......" Niu Jinda, as a veteran, was a little repulsed by Du He becoming his top boss.

However, the appointment was made by Li Shimin, and Niu Jinda was not allowed to resist.

Niu Jinda just wants to see how much true ability Duhe, who is rumored to be a god, has. Not long after Du He arrived in Qinghai, he disappeared and pushed everything to Zhang Liang. didn't do anything convincing him, and he didn't respect Duhe in his heart. Listening to his summons, he sneered and mocked a few words.

Xin Fang'er glanced nervously left and right, and said in a low voice: "Brother Niu, some words can't reach the ears of others, that is, the chief manager is not, just understand it in your heart." You must know that it is an eternal truth that disaster comes from the mouth. ”

Niu Jinda snorted and said angrily: "Why can't you say it, Your Majesty has opened up widely many years ago, and let people point out that he is not." Is Du He more remarkable than His Majesty, and I will write a secret letter to him when I go back. ”

This order was passed down, and no matter how dissatisfied Niu Jinda was, he couldn't help but go. Although he was thinking about how to use words to impeach Du He, he walked straight to the tent of the commander of the Chinese army.

The Tang army was strictly disciplined, and it was ordered that all generals must arrive within the time limit.

Not long after Du He received the order, a group of generals had already rushed to the military tent to wait for their orders.

Duhe asked about what happened after he left.

Zhang Liang, as his deputy, described in detail some of the key points of his agency in this month.

Like Niu Jinda, Zhang Liang also had a little dissatisfaction in his heart, he didn't know what Du He had done. On the same day, Du He left, and only vaguely found a reason. At that time, he thought that Du He would go back when he went, but where did he think that this trip would be more than a month. What Du He did was completely dereliction of duty. As the commander in command of an army of 100,000 people, putting aside the army and ignoring it, for a month, this is a very serious matter, even if it is to kill the head, it is not an exaggeration.

However, he has been in the officialdom for decades, and the city government is very deep, and he is dissatisfied in his heart, and he has not expressed it, but he is worried that because of this incident, the generals in the army will have a strange feeling towards Du He, so that the generals and commanders cannot work together.

Niu Jinda, Liu Lan, Xin Fang'er, Liu Boying and other generals also reported on the situation of their own units.

Because of Du He's dereliction of duty, these generals have lost their original enthusiasm, and they are a little repulsed by him as a coach.

Liu Landa's command is mostly light cavalry, responsible for intelligence investigation, and then he came out and said: "Chief, just now the end of the general will get the news, the Tubo army on the front line for some reason, retreated thirty miles last night, and now a local garrison called Zhonglongyi, seeing that they are repairing fortifications, it seems that they have a heart to defend." ”

As soon as Liu Lan's voice fell, Zhang Liang, Niu Jinda, Xin Fang'er, Liu Boying and others were stunned one after another.

The intention of the Tubo Chen soldiers on the border was obvious, they planned to launch an attack on the Tang and Tubo borders, and they were ready to fight with Tubo at any time.

As a result, they did nothing, and Tubo retreated first, which surprised and surprised them.

Zhang Liang asked, "This ...... Tubo retreated for no reason, what was the idea? ”

"The last general suspects that there is some conspiracy in Tubo...... "Liu Lan answered, this Liu Lan is both civil and military, and he is also a general. He once served as the secretary of Poyang County in Sui, and after three years of great cause, Qi Gongshun led 30,000 righteous troops to attack Yang County. The city was exhausted, and Qi Gongshun thought that victory was just around the corner, so he relaxed and slackened. Liu Lan gathered more than 100 warriors in the city, launched a surprise attack, and disrupted the camp in one fell swoop. Later, due to the jealousy of his colleagues, he surrendered to Qi Gongshun and helped Qi Gongshun to become a mediocre leader of the rebel army, and achieved a lot of achievements. In the eleventh year of Zhenguan, he set up a counter-plot to defeat the remnants of the Turks, and Li Shimin personally praised him for his wisdom and bravery.

As Du He said in the past, there were no generals in the early Tang Dynasty. Even if you leave aside Li Jing and Li Ji, who are famous generals in the world, and casually find a few who are not very famous, they still have outstanding records and remarkable talents.

Du He smiled slightly: "You guys are too worried, the reason why Tubo retreated is because the Xiangxiong Kingdom annihilated 20,000 Tubo troops in the Pingdu Pass, and they had to divide their troops to deal with the Xiangxiong army in the Pingdu Pass." As soon as this soldier is divided, they are even more passive and naturally dare not resist our army head-on. This Songtsen Gampo, who can advance and retreat, is not a simple character. ”

Hearing Du He say this, the eyes of the generals fell on him, wondering why he knew so clearly.

Du He explained with a smile: "This is also the reason why I have been absent for the past few days, and everyone who is doing it is my veteran of the Tang Dynasty." I have a lot of combat experience, and I really can't interfere with how to train the soldiers and how to make them adapt to the climate here as soon as possible. I also estimated how to do something beneficial to my Tang army, the princess Yaochi of Xiangxiong is my friend, and I took the opportunity to run to Zhangxiong, helped them a little, and by the way, created a favorable fighter for our army. ”

He explained his reason for leaving, a meaningful smile on his face.

Du He is not the kind of person who does not understand the world of human feelings, on the contrary, he still has a fairly accurate grasp of people's hearts. He could guess what these veterans were thinking, and he could understand their faint rejection of himself. After all, no one is perfect, and not all of them are saints and are so noble.

Everyone has the heart of comparison.

Compare the heart to the heart, replace it with him, let the people who are decades younger than him and have decades of qualifications inferior to him be arrogant in front of him, showing off their might, and they will be a little unbearable.

When he left, he became the shopkeeper and threw everything to them veterans, who already had some mustard hearts, which would naturally be more serious.

Discord between generals and commanders is a taboo for soldiers, so Du He explained very rationally what he had done in the past month.

Commanders, you look at me in the eyes, and your hearts are all solemn. They are all generals who are well versed in military affairs, and they know the importance of knowing themselves and their opponents. It is really remarkable that Du He was able to help the ignorant Zhangxiong break the enemy in just over a month.

Most of the veterans are people who value strength, and although they don't know the detailed reasons, they can also imagine the difficulties of the situation at that time. For Du He, who still achieved extraordinary results in this situation, there was also a little respect in his heart.

Especially Niu Jinda was even more ashamed, and stepped forward and said: "The last general misunderstood the chief manager, and I thought that the chief manager was planning to join the general manager regardless of his business, which is really ashamed." ”

Niu Jinda is a straight intestine, he can not say such words at all, Du He can't read minds, it is impossible to know what he is thinking. But he still said it, because of the guilt in his heart, he felt that he had misunderstood Du He, and he really shouldn't have been.

Du He laughed, "General Niu, you just did what a general should do." It's completely understandable that I, Duhe, am not a scheming girl, so I won't care. Instead of focusing on this pointless battle, it is better to think about how to break the enemy. Generals, what do you think? He glanced around at all the generals in the tent.

He said this to all the generals, that is, with the help of Niu Jinda, he made a statement to all the veterans. He didn't care if they didn't obey him, and he didn't care what they said about him behind their backs. How to break the enemy is what he cares about. Again, this is something that all the generals present care about.

After listening to Du He's words, all the generals in the tent looked very good, and they all understood the meaning of Du He's words, they were all sailors on the same boat, the ship capsized, and they lost the battle, which is not good for anyone, and fighting the enemy together is the real way to have both worlds.

Thinking about this, all the generals opened their mouths.

Seeing this, Zhang Liang secretly admired, this chief manager really had the means, seized this opportunity, tied all the generals together, and let them leave behind their prejudices. Next, as long as you take a walk on the battlefield, whether it is a mule or a horse, you will know immediately. If he can convince the public, he Duhe will be another handsome man after Li Jing, Li Daozong, and Li Ji. If it doesn't work, then you can only go back and hone it again.

Du He was absolutely confident in this, looking at the generals who had already gathered, he said loudly: "After a month of rest, our army has gradually adapted to the climate here, and it is time to see the real chapter...... Pass my orders, prepare everything, and march into Tibet tomorrow. ”

"No......" the generals responded in unison.
