Chapter 198: The Jumping Beam Clown It's not worth the risk
Zhang Zhenzhou and Lu Zushang listened to Li Jing's words, and they couldn't help but feel a chill down their spines. They are also experienced in battles, familiar with military affairs, and in the Tang Dynasty, people with foreign surnames achieved the position of chief executive, and most of them have real talents and real learning. Because the Tang Dynasty has been fighting for many years, the treasury is not abundant, and he doesn't want to spend more time in the south of the Yangtze River, Li Yuan specially wrote the words "quick battle" on the holy decree.
Now Fu Gongqi has made it clear that he is strictly guarding against death, Feng Huiliang and Chen Zhengdao are good generals, one guards Qinglin with infantry cavalry, and the other guards Dangtu with boat divisions. As long as Danyang is taken, it will be in line with the will of a quick battle to the greatest extent. Anyway, even if you take Dangtu and Qinglin, in the end, you still have to attack Danyang, it is better to go directly behind the enemy to attack Danyang, so you have the idea of attacking Danyang. Therefore, they also ignored that Danyang was more difficult to conquer than Dangtu and Qinglin, and if they couldn't take it, they would fall into a Jedi that was deep behind enemy lines and isolated.
Li Jing's analysis was reasonable and well-founded, and Zhang Zhenzhou and Lu Zushang were convinced when they heard it.
Li Shiji also said at this time: "The last general agrees with the deputy marshal's opinion, and the way to use troops is to put righteousness first." Our soldiers and horses are better than those of the Auxiliary Princess, the logistical support is better than the Auxiliary Princess, and the wisdom and courage of the good generals and soldiers are also better than the Auxiliary Princess. With the regular soldiers as the battalion, you will definitely be able to win a complete victory. Risky surprise attacks will ruin the overall victory. If there is a way to win, why take the risk of curiosity? ”
Huang Junhan echoed at this time: "The last general also supports the deputy marshal's Jianyi, and is willing to be the vanguard, so that the traitorous thieves such as Fugong Yi know, even if they shrink up." I'm the same as Datang can break their turtle shells. ”
Li Xiaogong has always been obedient to Li Jing, and Li Yuan has always been obedient to Li Jing's words, and Li Jing has the decision-making power to order the affairs of the army.
Today, his views are well received. He no longer thought about it, and directly issued a military order to attack on all fronts.
After the meeting, Li Jing and Li Shiji walked together on the way back to the camp.
"What is the best solution for the current situation?" Li Jing knew the ability of the generals of the Tang Dynasty very well, and he was very appreciative of Li Shiji's wisdom and military level, so he specially asked him about the same way.
Li Shiji was silent for a moment and said: "If you want to fight quickly, you can't attack it." It will only add casualties and will not be able to attack for a long time. It also undermines morale. If you continue to fight, you can win with your strength, but if you kill 800 enemies, you will lose 3,000 yourself. In the long run. It's not worth so much consumption. ”
Li Jing agreed: "It makes sense, the real strong enemy of our Tang Dynasty is the Turks, not the auxiliary princess. Fighting a war of attrition with him, the more it consumes. It will only be cheaper for the Turks. King Qin and General Luo have fought very well in the north over the years. We in the South can't afford to hold them back. ”
The true wise man does not look at the immediate victory or defeat, but thinks about the problem in the long run. Li Jing and Li Shiji are both heroes of the world, with a long-term vision, few people in the world can compare with each other, and their words and deeds not only include the current war situation, but also have not been fully considered in the future.
Li Shiji said in a deep voice: "Fu Gongyi is extremely ambitious, and he has been planning for many years, and this dynasty has risen. Everything is comprehensive, and many aspects really have to be served. But in my opinion, they are not invulnerable. There is also an Achilles heel that can be exploited. ”
Li Jing responded: "Mao Gong is talking about grain and grass? ”
"Yes!" Li Shiji nodded and smiled, feeling the same as the hero.
Grain and grass are the biggest problems facing Fugong Qi at present, which is related to the unique geographical advantages of Jiangnan. Since the Qin Dynasty, Jiangnan has been a backward region, and all dynasties have attached importance to the development of Guanzhong, the Central Plains and the north, and the Tang Dynasty has not been more than this. The rise of Jiangnan lies in the Anshi Rebellion, when An Lushan and Shi Siming caused chaos in the north, and the population moved south on a large scale, which gave the foundation for the rise of Jiangnan and made the south vibrant.
In the early Tang Dynasty, because Li Yuan did not attach importance to the south, the Tang Dynasty did not build large-scale official warehouses in the south, and the grain abundant in the south of the Yangtze River was transported to several major official warehouses in Luoyang, Guanzhong and the Central Plains. Anyway, Jiangnan is rich in grain, as long as there is no major disaster, there is almost no worry about no food, and there is no need to use the official warehouse for rescue.
It can be inferred from this that without the official warehouse as a support, there must not be much food in the hands of Fu Gongyi, and in order to fight against the Tang Dynasty, a large-scale increase in troops, and free support for the food of the rebels who followed the army to make trouble, over time, the grain and grass must be tight. Fu Gongyi is very well disguised on the surface, but how can he hide it from the eyes of Li Jing and Li Shiji.
"Lieutenant Marshal!"
At this time, the guards of the camp strode up and said that Luo Shixin had sent someone to ask for an audience.
Li Jing directly asked the other party to come in, and his relationship with Luo Shixin is little known, and it can be concluded that no one will pretend to be Luo Shixin's name with bad intentions.
Li Shiji saw that Li Jing had something to do, so he said and took a step first.
"You were sent by the General?" Li Jing looked at the handsome girl in red clothes in front of him, and from her, he saw a little bit of the unique Jianghu atmosphere of the red breeze girl.
The red-clothed sword handed over the letter.
Li Jing looked at the handwriting, and he did not have any doubts. Although there are many strange people in the world who can imitate handwriting, he doesn't believe that anyone has the ability to imitate Luo Shixin's words: the crooked, horizontal and vertical, different sizes of the font, imitating his words is definitely a difficult task with imitating the words of the book saint Wang Xizhi, or even more difficult.
After reading the letter, Li Jing scolded angrily: "Nonsense! "There is no language either. Although he did not accept Luo Shixin as a disciple, he regarded him as a disciple with his unconcealed guidance and teaching. Seeing that Luo Shixin was a general, participating in the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and sneaking into Dangtu alone and standing under the dangerous wall, it was really unwise.
At this point, Li Jing couldn't help it, thought about it and said to the woman in red in front of him: "Go back and tell the general, don't act rashly." If Fu Gong Yi jumps off the beam clown, it is easy to extinguish, but it is a matter of time...... Beam-jumping clowns aren't worth the risk. ”
**********
Because the war is about to start, the key guards are particularly strict.
However, although Fu Gongqi established himself as emperor, after all, he had not yet convinced the people, and the original system of the Tang Dynasty was still adopted to implement it, so as not to cause confusion. For example, the quotations in and out of the city were all opened in the Tang Dynasty, and the currency of the Tang Dynasty was Tongbao.
In ancient times, there was no ID card, and the only way to identify the identity was the "Wenyin", that is, the "Road Citation" of later generations. In this era, those who want to stay away from other places must be approved by the government and cited by official documents as proof. As Pingyang and Luo Shixin, it is too easy to get a genuine citation. checked the identity, paid the entry tax, stuffed a few more tongbao, and was also allowed to enter the city.
On the way, Luo Shixin and Pingyang were still thinking about how to find Pei Qingyi. This is not small, and the door-to-door search, even if it is not regarded as a detailed wanted by the Fugong Army, it will be discovered by the injured people. Situ hurt them as assassins, and it was too dangerous for the enemy to be dark and clear.
As it turned out, they were overly concerned about this.
Luo Shixin and Pingyang followed the general direction that Yang Jie said, and found the Jieshi Inn in his mouth.
As a medium-sized inn, the sanitary environment is not bad and acceptable, so I stayed here to facilitate Yang Jie to come to them.
Luo Shixin still exudes his heroic spirit, and he is generous, which has aroused the favor of the shopkeeper Xiaoer, who is diligent and thoughtful.
Luo Shixin casually asked a simple message about Dangtu City, and the shopkeeper also knew everything. In this line of work, they often listen to the gossip of customers, and they are well-informed, and they can find out a lot of useful things.
However, the effort of a meal, when several key places in Tucheng, such as military camps and granaries, let him explore clearly.
After eating and drinking, Luo Shixin and Pingyang discussed going back to the room first and waiting for Wu Leopard's news. More than 60 of them arrived in Dangtu first, and the earliest batch has been six days old, so there should be a little harvest.
Luo Shixin and Pingyang went upstairs one after another, and a young man in his twenties was walking down the stairs. When the two staggered, Luo Shixin suddenly felt something, and grabbed the young man's shoulder like lightning.
The young man was slightly alarmed and exclaimed, "What are you doing? ”
Luo Shixin chuckled: "Give me back my things and I'll go!" ”
"Whatever, don't spew blood!" The young man said angrily, but his body shrank, and he broke free from Luo Shixin's grasp.
Luo Shixin was surprised, and at that moment he felt like he had caught a loach, slippery and not leaving his hands. Reaching out and grabbing the other party's arm again, he obviously grabbed it but still let him break free. This time, he sensed that the other party seemed to have practiced a strange cartilage dodge technique, and was able to break free from his grasp in an incredible way.
The young man sneered in his heart: "This Luo Shixin is nothing more than that, the master has gone." As he was thinking this, his big palm fell on his head, and the five fingers were buckled on the top of his head like a diamond circle, and each finger was like a steel nail embedded in his head, and the pain in his heart made him cry out loud. He didn't even notice that Luo Shixin's hand appeared on his head like this, as if it was there in the first place, and there was no room to fight back.
"You have the ability, you are shrinking your head." Luo Shixin added a little strength to his hand, and the young man couldn't bear it anymore, and shouted: "I'll give, I'll give, I'll give it to you." As he spoke, he hurriedly took out a money bag from his cuff and returned it to Luo Shixin.
Luo Shixin reached out and took the money bag, kicked him over, kicked him to the bottom of the stairs, and said, "Don't let me see you." ”
The young man limped away with his head in his hands.
From stealing money to fighting to paying it back, it's just a blink of an eye.
When the shopkeeper heard something unusual, he just came to the front and asked about something.
Luo Shixin smiled: "It's just a thief, it's not in the way." ”
The shopkeeper saw that Luo Shixin had no intention of pursuing it, and he didn't want to cause trouble, so he apologized and went to work.
Pingyang glanced at him and said, "It must be the trouble you caused by your generous moves." ”
Luo Shixin touched his nose in embarrassment, feeling a little weird in his heart, but he didn't think much about it.
I sat down at the table in the room and was about to pour myself a glass of water, when I heard a quick knock on the door. (To be continued......)
