Chapter 0322 - Avoiding Reality is Fiction
Li Mi broke off a small branch and drew a map of Longyou on the mud and sand by the stream.
As he painted, he said: "Li Sheren, generals, once my Longyou army storms the stone fort, the battle will definitely not be limited to the stone fort. Last year, Huangfu Weiming attacked Shibao, because he neglected to send reinforcements, but was outflanked by Mangbuzhi and King Tuyuhun, and was defeated.
Judging from the map, the Tubo army wants to enter Longyou, from north to south, there are several roads to go. The first is to go to the Niuxindui west of the Anren Army and cross the Chiling. The second is the stone fort south of the People's Army.
The third is where we are now, passing through Da Momen City, Wanxiu City, and going north along the Yellow River. The fourth is to climb over the heavy mountains from the carved city of Tubo to Hechuan to guard and capture.
The fifth is to attack Hezhou through Shimen Mountain. The sixth is to attack Taozhou and Lintan from the north on the east bank of the Tao River; Among them, the fifth and sixth passages are far away from the stone fort, and it is difficult to form a close echo with the battlefield of the stone fort, unless all the troops and horses of the Tibetan country are dispatched to counterattack in an all-round way, these two passages can form a joint force. Therefore, it can be ignored for the time being;
Among the remaining four passages, the war is together, and the stone fort passage is blocked by the armies of both sides, and we don't need to consider it, the most likely is the Niuxindui in the north of the stone fort, Wanxiu City in the south, and the three passages of Hechuan guarding.
And Li Sheren has just captured and defeated the Tubo people in Hechuan, and the enemy has more than 10,000. Not long time has passed, and it is inferred from the hearts of the Tibetan people that they must not be willing to go to Hechuan to defend and capture, so as not to affect their morale.
Therefore, the biggest possibility of the rest is Niu Xindui and Wanxiu City. At that time, if the Tibetan army comes to help, eighty percent will take these two roads. ”
Hua Qiu pursed his lips and said, "Li Yu, I have been talking for a long time. How do I feel like you're talking nonsense, even I can think of it. Dong Yanguang must also be able to think of it, can we bother? Let's go to these two places. will be discovered by Dong Yanguang immediately. ”
Nie Feng echoed: "That's it, don't forget that we mainly want to avoid Dong Yanguang now, don't let him find us." ”
Li Ang glared at Hua Qiu and said, "If you want to achieve something, first get rid of this frizzy temperament." ”
On the contrary, it was the team named Li Sheng who helped Li Yu speak: "Staff Officer Li is just analyzing the trend of the two armies in the Battle of Shibao, as for where we should go, Staff Officer Li should have other opinions." ”
Li Sheng, a good word, is a native of Lintan, Taozhou. 20 years old this year, he has been good at riding and archery since he was a child, joined the army at the age of 18, and in less than two years, he achieved the right team with his military exploits.
Leon had spoken to him and was very optimistic about his military talents, so he had the opportunity to participate in this discussion.
Li Mi didn't argue with everyone either, and waited for Hua Qiu and the others to calm down before he continued: "These passages mentioned above. It is accessible to large armies. As for small groups of people to cross the line, especially if they do not carry baggage, there are actually many passages to choose from.
Once the Battle of Shibao began, the Tibetan army would definitely move forward. And the grain and grass should be concentrated in the Great Momen City, Shudun City, and Moliyi, especially the Moliyi is the closest to the stone fort............"
As soon as Leon heard this. Suddenly became interested, Mo Liyi is located at a three-way intersection. The terrain is also relatively flat, and it is the logistics base for the Tibetan defense of the stone fort. In such an important place, there is no city. Of course, there are not a few cities in the whole of Tibet, and the decent ones can be counted on one hand.
Without the protection of the city, it is easy to sneak attack.
"Li Mi, go on."
Li Mi said solemnly: "These days, I have observed the nearby terrain and heard from the locals that from here to the west, over the White Fox Mountain, you can reach the Molagou, and then follow the Molagou to bypass the Da Momen City and Shudun City, if we act secretly enough, we can sneak attack the Moliyi." ”
Hua Qiu said: "This is not easy, the White Fox Mountain is covered with snow all year round, it is not easy to climb over the past, go along the Manglagou, and cross the Yellow River to bypass the Great Momen City and Shudun City." Even if the mountains and rivers are crossed, how do you know whether the Tubo people will be stationed in Moliyi with heavy troops. Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if our sneak attack is successful, how can we come back? ”
The questions raised by Hua Qiu are all very real problems, every step is full of hardships and dangers, and if you take a wrong step, five hundred elite horsemen may be wiped out.
Li Mi said: "Whether to sneak up or not to sneak up on Mo Liyi, it can be seen that the situation depends. We can go south from here, first hide at the northern foot of the White Fox Mountain, if we can't take advantage of the opportunity, then we can go back the same way. ”
This is the only way to do it now, otherwise if Dong Yanguang is transferred to Shibao, as a wartime commander, Dong Yanguang can put everyone to death at will.
The emperor's decree came too suddenly, and Li Ang was unprepared in advance, and it was inevitable that he would be a little passive in his hurry. In his heart, Li Ang was actually unwilling to take all the risks to attack Mo Liyi, because this was tantamount to helping Dong Yanguang.
For the sake of Datang, regardless of previous suspicions, he was willing to sacrifice his life to help Dong Yanguang, and Li Ang was not so noble.
With complicated feelings, Li Ang decided to follow Li Yu's strategy and go to the northern foot of White Fox Mountain to hide and wait. At the same time, he asked someone to bring a letter to Wang Zhonghe.
The letter was soon delivered to Shanzhou and reached Wang Zhonghe.
"If you don't go to celebrate your father, it's hard to go. At present, the situation has changed abruptly, the huge waves are monstrous, and the lower officials can only re-enter Tubo, and Ambassador Wang cherishes it! ”
Li Ang's letter contained a few words, which made Wang Zhonghe's heart even heavier.
If Li Ang was a little passive in a hurry, he Wang Zhonghei could be regarded as falling into the gutter this time.
With the outstanding military exploits accumulated in Hedong and Shuofang, he had just been concurrently serving as the Four Towns Festival, and the Holy Dependency was Long, but he never expected that in the blink of an eye, the emperor did not even have a word to retain, so he agreed to his resignation as the ambassador of the two towns and festivals, and also used Dong Yanguang, the deputy envoy, to lead the army to attack the stone fort.
This made him, the ambassador of Jiedu, a layman, in an extremely embarrassing situation. Wang Zhongsi is not stupid, he knows that the danger is approaching step by step, and if Dong Yanguang is allowed to capture the stone fort, he will be finished.
Only when Dong Yanguang fails can he prove that he is correct and restore the holy will.
Otherwise, Li Linfu and those people will definitely attack him in groups, and he and the prince will be in danger!
No, Dong Yanguang must not be allowed to take the stone fort.
Fortunately, the emperor only asked him to cooperate with Dong Yanguang, and did not remove him from his position, nor did he let him obey Dong Yanguang's orders.
But it must be done without showing traces, otherwise Dong Yanguang and Li Linfu will definitely put the responsibility for the defeat on his head, and the consequences will be even more serious.
"If you don't go to Qing Father, it will be difficult to ......" Wang Zhongsi muttered to himself, it is true, even if he can escape this catastrophe, what about the next time? Li Ang is right, if you don't go to celebrate your father, you will be in trouble!
