On July 4, the seventeenth year of Zhenguan, the main force of the Tang Dynasty returned to aid Shaya City, and the first battle annihilated the Bai Suyah Department, and the next day without a fight into the Qi City, at the same time, the Tang Army Liu Qi Department originally deployed in the Puchang line also began to mobilize troops and horses, and there was a great tendency to attack the Qiuci country before and after the main force of the Tang Army of the return, once the news came, the Qiuzi country was in chaos, the royal court was panicked, and the king of Qiuci urgently summoned the ministers into the palace to discuss matters.

"A bunch of bastard things, weren't they all very good at talking in the past, what? They are all dumb, and the widow is raising you and waiting for a group of waste, saying! How should this matter be resolved? The situation was urgent, and the ministers of the palace were all in a mess at this time, and no one dared to speak out, which made the class so angry that their noses were crooked, and they lost their temper in the hall like thunder, but the more he was like this, the ministers did not dare to speak casually, and they all bowed their heads and were silent, and there was a strange dead air in the hall.

"What should I do now?" Seeing that the big guys were pretending to be dumb there, the team was so angry that they directly named the prime minister.

Seeing that the class called his name, Nali was helpless, so he could only hurriedly go out of the column, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty is angry, Your Majesty is angry, now that the main force of the Tang Army has returned, Khotan and Shule will not be lucky. ”

"Your Majesty, what the Prime Minister said is very true, the Tang Army is invincible, if it is carried hard, Khotan and Shule are a lesson from the past, and peace should be the best policy."

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is reasonable, and I hope Your Majesty will make a decision quickly."

"Your Majesty, war is not conducive to peace, and the Prime Minister's words are the way to seek the country."

……

Na Li is the prime minister, and his prestige in the court is quite high, and as soon as he asked for peace, all the civil officials in the hall came out, and for a time the whole hall was echoed.

That class is not a faint monarch without opinions, how can he not know the truth of the disadvantage of war, but he knows very well in his heart: the posture put on by the Tang army now is basically the appearance of the war to destroy the country, how can it be possible to give the Qiuzi country the possibility of peace, seeing that a group of ministers were cowardly before fighting, he was even more annoyed in his heart, and stomped his foot and said: "Enough!" A bunch of rubbish! Nali, since you want to make peace, how to make peace, huh? Have you bound the widow to peace? ”

That class said this very seriously, and Nali was so frightened that he fell to his knees, kowtowed, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty is angry, Your Majesty is angry, Weichen, Weichen really dare not be rude and illegal, Weichen thinks, thinks ......"

Seeing that Nali didn't say a reason for a long time, the class was angry and ruined, and yelled: "I thought it was a fart, someone came, drag this guy down and cut it down!" As soon as the words fell, the golden-armored guards on duty in front of the hall immediately rushed forward, set up Nari, who had not stopped kowtowing, and dragged him out.

"Your Majesty is slow, Weichen has a plan!" Seeing that something was wrong, Nari struggled and roared wildly.

"Hmm." Naban waved his hand, motioned for the Golden Armor Guard to let go of Nari, and said with a dark face: "Speak!" ”

Nali escaped death, his face was frightened white, and he didn't even dare to wipe the sweat on his face, kowtowed and said: "Your Majesty, since ancient times, you can fight to make peace, and now the Tang Army is fierce, but our army is not without the power of a battle, if you can frustrate the enemy's sharpness, form a stalemate, when there is hope for peace, the minister is not a general, I don't know the strategy, I implore Your Majesty to consult the generals in detail, in order to plan for war, if you can stick to the moon, Weichen should have the way to make peace." ”

"Humph!" How could that class not know that what Nali said was just a lie, and how could he really have a good plan, but he quite agreed with the words "can fight to make peace", so he didn't embarrass Nali any more, looked at Bai Suxin and Sha Feihuo, who were standing at the top two of the military generals series, with a dark face, slowed down his tone, and asked: "Uncle Wang, General Sha, what do you two think about the situation at this time?" ”

Bai Suxin has always been at odds with Bai Suyahe, and they have been fighting openly and secretly with each other for a lifetime, but once they heard that Bai Suyahe died before the battle, he also felt quite sad about the death of a rabbit and a fox, and he didn't have the heart to listen to the nonsense of the ministers there, full of chaos, and he was not in the mood to think about the war on the front line.

Bai Suxin can pretend to be profound, that is, he has the identity of Uncle Wang, but Sha Feiluo, as a general, does not have that foundation, seeing that class's face is getting darker and darker, he had to stand up and say: "Your Majesty, what the Prime Minister said is very true, you can only make peace if you can fight, but this is the war......" Sha Feicamel stopped when he said this, looked left and right, but did not continue.

Although the class only knew a little about war strategies, they also understood the principle that the military way should be based on the secret first, and they knew what the meaning of Sha Feihu's actions was, so they quickly frowned, waved their hands and said: "Uncle Wang, General Sha, and the prime minister stay and retreat from the dynasty!" ”

"General Sha, my Qiuzi has now reached the critical point of life and death, I hope that General Sha can help the widow, don't let my Qiuci father suffer the pain of the country, if you can survive this catastrophe, the widow should tear the soil to thank the general for his kindness." After the ministers retreated, the group stepped down from the throne, strode to Sha Feihuo, and bowed to the end.

How dare Sha Feiluo accept such a heavy gift, he hurriedly dodged away, and said with a frightened voice: "Your Majesty must not be like this, the last general really does not dare to be, Your Majesty treats a certain person as a national soldier, and a certain person should do his best, and then die." ”

The fat cheeks of the class were full of sadness, and he said with tears in the corners of his eyes: "There is General Lao, now that the situation is urgent, I hope that the general will not hesitate to give advice, and the widow listens." ”

"Your Majesty, although the Tang army is fierce, its forces are scattered, and it is not impossible to win in battle." Sha Feiluo respectfully saluted, and said freely: "I have more than 20,000 soldiers under my eyes, and the enemy has about 12,000 soldiers, which is twice as many as the enemy, however, our army is good at defending and not attacking, if it is a decisive battle with the enemy, it is not its opponent, the defeat of Khotan and Shule is the proof, however, our army is a battle to defend the country, if we can work together, but there may not be no chance of victory, Your Majesty Mingjian, the enemy on the front line of Puchang has nearly 7,000 soldiers, and it is a soldier who is recuperated, but it is not the main force of the Tang Army, but it is just a garrison. Its offensive and defensive strength is not much stronger than our army, and the enemy army on the front line of Shaya is a division of a hundred battles, although the number is small, but the elite is difficult to beat, not to be taken lightly, but the department is thousands of miles away, although its edge is sharp and tired, it is not invincible, and there will be three strategies for His Majesty to consider. ”

As soon as he heard Sha Feihuo's words, there was a self-confidence in defeating the Tang army, and the class immediately came to the spirit and said busily: "Oh? The general, but it doesn't hurt to speak, but the widow listens. ”

Sha Feiluo nodded, and after a little muttering, he then spoke: "Now the way, we must divide the enemy army, and we must not let the two Tang armies become one, otherwise it will be difficult for our army to win, and Your Majesty should be able to understand the interests here, and there is no need for the last general to say more, however, if you want to win the battle, it is not easy to forcibly divide the enemy army, and the last general will ignore the enemy army on the front line of Puchang, and only hold Wanhe City with a small number of troops, block the way for the enemy army to enter our royal city, and then abandon Weicheng City, and the soldiers of the whole country gather near the royal city, Defend the city with the infantry army, the cavalry roams outside, looking for an opportunity to annihilate the enemy's main force under the royal city, and then send troops to Wanhe, forcing the enemy Liu Qibu to return to the army to defend himself. The middle strategy is to let the enemy of the first line of Puchang drive straight in, with a small number of troops to hold the royal city, take advantage of the tall and strong advantages of our royal city, and the weakness of the enemy of the first line of Puchang without experience in war, to keep the city without loss, and the main force of our army is divided into two, with 5,000 troops to defend Weicheng City, the rest of the troops took the initiative to attack, copied the back road of the enemy on the first line of Puchang, to catch turtles in an urn, and wait for the enemy of the first line of Puchang to be destroyed, the main force of the enemy will become a tree without roots, and it is bound to be unable to last, this battle should be won, however, if the enemy of the first line of the enemy Puchang does not move, Instead, if we advance slowly, our army will be in a passive position, and there is indeed something wrong with this plan; As for the next strategy, that is, to concentrate the strength of the whole country, make a posture of a decisive battle with the enemy all the way, induce the enemy army of the other road to go all out to help, and then set up an ambush halfway to force a decisive battle with the enemy, and break the enemy all the way at any cost, and then the rear can sue for peace. ”

"Hmm." After listening to Sha Feiluo's analysis, the class did not rush to make a judgment, but thought silently for a while, frowned and looked at Bai Suxin, who had never said a word, and said, "Uncle Wang, how do you think the three strategies should be chosen?" ”

Bai Suxin is self-assured and noble, and has never looked down on Sha Feiluo, but he also knows that Sha Feiluo has a set of strategies and tactics, and at this time it is a matter of the survival of the country, but there is no psychology that he must refute Sha Feiluo's words in the past. If the enemy is not deceived, our army is afraid of falling into a passive situation, and we should try to lure it into the shortlist, according to the old minister, if our army is not equipped with the whole army to attack Wanhe City, causing the scene of the empty city of the royal city, inducing the enemy to attack from a long distance, and then the army will return to help, gather and annihilate the enemy under the city. "No, no, if the enemy goes down to the royal city with a drum, won't our army lose its roots, this plan is too dangerous!" When Nali heard that he was going to sing about the empty city plan, he broke out in a cold sweat, and Bai Suxin's voice fell, and he hurriedly retorted.

"Humph!" At this time, seeing that Nali jumped out again to point fingers at the current war, he suddenly became angry, glanced at Nali coldly, snorted dissatisfiedly, and frightened Nally hurriedly retreated to the side.

"Since the two generals have a very similar plan, the widow is not afraid to take this risk, but who leads the troops outside, who dares to hold the royal city?" That class knew that fighting with the Tang army step by step would be a situation of more losses and fewer victories, and at this time they couldn't take any risks, so they pondered for a while and asked a key question - it is a difficult thing to hold the city with a small number of troops, and it is not possible to do it unless there are brave people, and lead the army outside, not only the scenery but also the military power, once the big victory, the reputation belongs to it, naturally it is the favorite of the generals, one is drudgery, one is the position of scenery, which is not the same as the same day, that class said this as soon as it came out, Bai and Sha were all silent, and no one wanted to rush to speak.

It stands to reason that Bai Suxin knows the way of defending the city, and it is appropriate for him to defend the city, and Sha Feiluo is a master of the battle array, but defending the city may not be his specialty, the problem is that Bai Suxin is Uncle Wang, and he has been a general for a long time, and there are many old things in the army, Sha Feiluo has just arrived, and his prestige in the army is far less than Bai Suxin, whether he can command the whole army is still a question, and that class does not dare to entrust the soldiers of the whole country to Sha Feiluo, after all, the royal city can be lost, and when it is really impossible to hold it, give up first, and then take it back. But the army of the whole country cannot be damaged, and how to choose is really a dilemma for that class.

Seeing that the big guy didn't say anything, Sha Feiluo was helpless, and took the lead in standing up and said, "Your Majesty, the last general is willing to guard the royal city." ”

"Well, in this case, the widow will guard the royal city with the general, and all the city defense will be under the command of the general, and the widow will never interfere, but I don't know how many soldiers and horses the general needs?" The class rolled his eyes and said with a smile of relief.

"Your Majesty, the last general has not defended the fortified city, and he really does not dare to indulge lightly, and he hopes that there will be as many soldiers defending the city as possible." Sha Feiluo smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Well, General Sha can ignore what he said, so how about defending the city with 5,000 soldiers and horses?" Listening to Sha Feiluo's words, the class still had a trace of doubt in his heart also disappeared, without him, Sha Feicamel is the Tang Dynasty general after all, although he has always been very loyal, but that class is not very at ease with it, if Sha Feicamel said that only a small number of soldiers and horses are needed to defend the city, then the class will probably wonder if Sha Feicamel is a fake general, and at this time Sha Feicamel made it clear that he was worried that the few soldiers could not hold the royal city, which means that he is indeed worried about the country of Qiuzi and has ulterior motives,

"The last general ......" Sha Feiluo just said that he was about to receive the order, but saw Bai Suxin stand up and said: "Your Majesty is slow, the old minister thinks that if you want to lure the enemy deeper, the troops guarding the royal city must not be too much, otherwise the Tang army may not be fooled, 5,000 troops is already the total number of enemies on the front line of Shaya, and the enemy army is afraid that it will not dare to drive straight in." ”

"Hmm, then with Uncle Wang's intentions, how many people should guard the royal city?" That class also understood that what Bai Suxin said was right, and after frowning and thinking about it, he asked.

Bai Suxin calmly analyzed: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that it is enough to defend Weicheng City with 3,000 soldiers and horses, and defend Wangcheng with 2,000 troops, and when our army moves, the enemy army is very likely to abandon Weicheng City and attack Wangcheng with all his might. ”

"Oh? What does General Sha think? The class didn't immediately draw a conclusion, but looked at Sha Feiluo inquiringly and asked.

"This ......" Sha Feihuo's face was embarrassed, and he muttered for a while: "If the enemy's 5,000 soldiers and horses attack the city with all their might, the last general really can't guarantee that he can defend it for three days with 2,000 troops. ”

"General Sha is overthinking." Bai Suxin shook his head disappreciatively and said: "The Tang army's field battle is acceptable, but I am afraid that this way of attacking the city may not be successful, and besides, less than half of the enemy soldiers are infantry, what can be done, it is not difficult to hold it for three days." ”

Bai Suxin's words were purely standing and talking without getting tired, and when he heard this, Sha Feiluo suddenly became angry, and retorted unceremoniously: "If General Bai feels that it is easy to defend the city, then ask General Bai to defend it, how about you and I change positions?" ”

These days, there have been many disputes between Bai Suxin and Bai Suyahe and Sha Feiluo, and there is no much incense between them, at this time, hearing Sha Feiluo say so politely, the fire in Bai Suxin's heart also "poofed", and said with a black face: "Okay, General Sha is afraid that there are few soldiers, so it is simply just give you 10,000 soldiers and horses to defend the city, and the old man will go to the ambush alone." ”

"Enough!" As soon as I saw that the two generals under my command were arguing again, the head of the squad had a headache - the scene of the three generals talking about each other these days had long been fed up, and today the two generals just reached a little consensus, which is probably the most likely meeting, but it made a fuss again, which really made the class not know what to say. When the class was angry, Sha and Bai immediately calmed down, and each retreated to the side, but they each turned their heads to look to the side, all with dark faces, looking unconvinced.

"Alas, the two generals are all for the sake of state affairs, there is something that cannot be negotiated, why bother, I have now reached the point of life and death, if the two do not cooperate sincerely, the general situation is in danger, how can the lack of favor be embarrassed?" The class said a few words bitterly, and when they saw Sha and Bai with their faces parted, they were anxious in their hearts, and paced back and forth in the main hall for a few steps, and wanted to persuade again, but they didn't know where to start, so they had to shake their heads and said: "That's good, the widow is in charge, and I will leave 2,500 soldiers and horses to defend the city." After a pause, he suddenly raised his voice and said, "Nari! ”

The Prime Minister of State Nari was thinking about it, and suddenly heard his name being called by the class, and hurriedly stood up and said, "The minister is here." ”

"The widow Ling'er is the deputy marshal of Uncle Wang, go back to the house and prepare, and go out with the army early tomorrow morning, and in addition, spread the widow's will, and the eldest son of the king, Ning Ye, is the deputy general of the city, and go down" The fat cheeks trembled, and he said helplessly.

Bai Suxin and Sha Feiluo glanced at each other angrily, and each of them snorted and left, but Nali did not leave immediately, looked at the distant backs of Sha and Bai, and said uneasily: "Your Majesty, look at this ......"

"Needless to say, the widow knows what he wants, just go." That Ben knew what Nelly was going to say, but at this time he was too lazy to dwell on the matter, sighed, waved his hand weakly, and motioned for Nelly to step back.

"Yes, Weichen retired." Seeing that the class didn't want to listen to him, he didn't dare to say more, so he hurriedly saluted and retreated.

"Alas!" Nari paced back and forth in the main hall for a few steps, and sat down on the throne, his hand touching his forehead, his face full of exhaustion and deep thought......
