Du He's chant made Li Shimin a little dumbfounded.

He has never seen through Du He's talent. From the point of view of temperament, Du He's leadership temperament is something that only those who have achieved great things can have, although they have only known each other for half a year, Du He has shown considerable potential from the beginning of his exhortation to polo, horseshoe and Tibet. So he always thought that Du He planned to develop in literature, just like the famous Du Ruhui.

But recently, I learned that Du He wanted to join the army, so he was assigned a position as a lieutenant general of the Left Guard's Mansion, so that he could guard his own safety, and observe him by the way to see what his potential was.

But now his song "Loyal to the Country" shocked Li Shimin. Listening to his ambitions, Li Shimin was even more impressed.

Because the lyrics sung by Du He are exactly the goal he Li Shimin set for himself, so that the towering Tang Dynasty and all countries will come to congratulate and stand on top of the world.

He already admired Du He and valued Du He, but at this moment, seeing that Du He's ambition was secretly in line with him, he valued and appreciated him even more. So, he specially reminded Du Ruhui and let him know that the marriage between Changle and Du He had not been dissolved.

But Du Ruhui's reaction gave Li Shimin a wake-up call. They have cooperated with each other for more than ten years, and they have a certain understanding of each other's minds. If it weren't for Du Ruhui's unspeakable secrets, he would definitely agree with his decision.

What kind of character Li Shimin is, thinking about Du He's performance for Li Xueyan's reluctance to marry Tubo, he immediately saw that this matter was related to Li Xueyan, so he met him privately and wanted to ask him who he wanted to marry.

This question immediately asked the question, Li Shimin never imagined that Du He was so greedy that he planned to marry the two daughters together, and he also said such a thing. went around and around, and almost got around himself and became his accomplice.

In addition to being funny, he actually acquiesced in his approach in his heart.

It's just that they are all men, and Li Shimin is much more lustful than Du He, so he can understand his psychology, and he decided not to bother with this matter and let them fend for themselves.

At this time, Li Shimin got the battle letter of Songtsen Gampo, remembered Du He's evaluation of Tubo at the beginning, and also moved his mind. He was worried about what Du Ho was capable of and how much potential he had? The surname Suo also provoked him. If he really has the talent to help him, it doesn't hurt to help him yourself.

Unexpectedly, as soon as his voice fell, Du He immediately came up with a clever plan to break the enemy, and there were two!

Li Shimin was stunned and asked, "The clever plan is out?" ”

Du He said confidently: "This first plan is to break the enemy, and it is a tactic that my Tang Dynasty should use when Tubo comes to attack." Uncle Li, wait a minute, I'll go get the map! ”

He left for a moment, and when he re-entered the room, he had a large sheepskin map in his hand, which he spread out on the table.

Li Shimin and Du Ruhui looked at each other one after another, and they both saw that this was a topographic map of the Datang border, including Dangxiang, Bailan, Tuyuhun and other places, and some arrows had been drawn on the map with pens of various colors.

"Uncle Li, Daddy, look! This is Tubo, here is Songzhou of my Tang Dynasty, here is Tuyuhun, here is Dangxiang and Bailan Zhuqiang. Du He pointed out the nearby countries one by one, and then said, "Uncle Li should remember that a year ago, you sent troops to attack Tuyuhun!" ”

Li Shimin nodded.

In the eighth year of Zhenguan, Tuyuhun attacked Tang Kuo and Lanzhou in the Tang Dynasty without his strength, threatening the Hexi Corridor, the throat of the Tang Dynasty to the Western Regions. In the following year, Li Shimin named Li Jing as the general manager of the Xihai Road March, and the commander of the military department Shangshu and the Jishi Road march chief Hou Junji; Li Daozong, the secretary of the criminal department, was appointed as the king of the city and the head of the Shanshan Dao march; Li Daliang, the governor of Liangzhou and the head of the march of the last road; Li Daoyan, the governor of Minzhou and the head of the Chishui Road march; Lizhou Thorn Shi Yanze Road marching commander Gao Yongsheng and the Eastern (Turkic) Turks and Qibi He Li of the Tang Dynasty attacked Tuyuhun.

In this battle, Li Jing divided his troops into several routes, ran for more than 2,000 miles, annihilated Tuyuhun in one fell swoop, and then appointed Murong Shun as the khan, the king of Xiping County, and Tuyuhun also became a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty.

Du He pointed to Songzhou and the nearby party items on the map, Tuyuhun and said: "Songzhou is located in Jiannan Province, as the governor's mansion, it is mainly responsible for managing the party items and other Qiang that are attached to my Tang Dynasty. Therefore, the minister can be sure that if Songtsen Gampo wants to enter the army, the first thing to attack must be the party and Zhuqiang, in case they help us to cut off their back road and clear the worries, and then in the army to send the governor of Songzhou. ”

It just so happens that the arrows marked with cinnabar on the map point to Songzhou.

Regarding Du He's analysis, Du Ruhui smiled and nodded in agreement.

Li Shimin also said: "Reasonable! ”

Du He was full of confidence and continued: "Therefore, here we have two ways to retreat from the enemy, one is to meet the enemy under the city of Songzhou, and my Tang Lion Soldier is mighty, and there is no need for any strategy at all. As long as the military department is dispatched to Shangshu Hou Junji, the general of the left leading army is stubborn, and the four generals of the left Wuwei general Niu Jinda and the leading general Liu Lan can win with 50,000 horses. It's just that it can't break the enemy army. As long as the Tibetans fled to Qinghai and entered the plateau area, our army would have no way to pursue. As for the severity of the plateau climate, Uncle Li doesn't need me to repeat it! ”

Li Shimin nodded, and on the night that Du He told him, he sent ten loyal guards to Tubo, but before they arrived in the capital of Tubo, six of the ten people fell ill, and the remaining four also showed symptoms of physical discomfort, everything was as Du He said.

Altitude sickness is too bad for them in the Central Plains.

Duhe looked at the map and said again: "So the kid thinks that we should give Songtsen Gampo a sweetness in this first battle." Although Songtsen Gampo said that he was both wise and brave, but since the age of thirteen, he has been almost invincible, and it is inevitable that he will have pride. In addition, he seriously underestimated the strength of my Datang. Otherwise, he would not have had the courage to commit it, and rampantly said that he would take Uncle Li's head. ”

"As long as he gives him some sweetness, with his ignorance of my Datang, the ten ** will be fooled, so as to lead the army to go deep alone. As long as they are introduced into the encirclement, whether this group of Tibetan troops is dead or alive at that time is all under the control of our army. If they can be completely annihilated and Songtsen Gampo is captured, it is almost equivalent to destroying Tubo in one fell swoop. ”

"Analyzed the psychology of the enemy leader, lured the enemy to go deeper, surrounded and annihilated. Wonderful! Li Shimin was an excellent military strategist, and he had already seen through his thoughts when Du He said the sweetness to Tubo, and he also gave him a very high evaluation.

"And then, is it to introduce the Tibetan people into the Gansong Ridge?" Li Shimin said pointedly: "This Gansong Ridge is also known as Gansong Mountain, the terrain is extremely dangerous, if the Tubo people are so mountainous, they will suffer the doom of total annihilation." ”

Du He glanced at Li Shimin and said, "Uncle Li is testing me, who is Songtsen Gampo?" Maybe because this is the first time he has confronted my Datang, he doesn't know the strength of my Datang, but he is definitely not a fool. If our army escapes into Gansong Ridge, it will inevitably arouse the vigilance of the other side and cause it to fall short. Therefore, this ambush place, when on the way from Songzhou to Jiaochuan, is the only way to make him believe that our army is really defeated, but intends to withdraw to Jiaochuan. Only in this way will he be pursued. ”

Li Shimin smiled knowingly, nodded admiringly, and said, "I accepted this plan, and the second strategy will be released?" ”
