Chapter 34 Gangsters, ** and the Emperor

"The situation in Wagang is very bad, the territory is limited, there are no mountains and rivers to be dangerous, Dou Jiande is in the north, Lu Mingyue is in the east, Du Fuwei is in the south, and the Sui army in Luoyang is in the west, almost the enemy is on all sides. It was all because of the recent capture of Liyang Cang and the acquisition of a large amount of grain, that they had a foothold, prestige, and the support of the Quartet, giving the world a seemingly powerful illusion. If we want to support this illusion and continue, the only way to continue to win is to conquer Luoyang!" Li Mi said about the situation in Wagang, and an image of enemies on all sides appeared.

"Duke Wei is too worried, Dou Jiande in the north, if he doesn't wipe out Luo Yi in Youzhou, he won't go south; and Lu Mingyue is just a dry bone, so he can't be afraid; as for Luoyang, a group of wealthy families are fighting each other, and it's not enough to be afraid, as for Du Fuwei, who is bent on expanding south, he has no ability, no strength to provoke Wagang!" Li Jiancheng analyzed that the current situation is extremely beneficial to Wagang, but the world will always be unified, this is not the era of the Three Kingdoms, nor the five dynasties and ten countries, and it will not continue to be divided for decades.

Competing for the world is a knockout game in itself, constantly eliminating the enemy, constantly improving their own strength, who can laugh and say in the end, who is the king.

In times of chaos, Wagang is the most vigorous, but at the moment when the world is unified, the situation in Wagang is the worst.

It's just that Li Mi also knows about these.

Sure enough, Li Mi smiled and said, "Virtuous nephew, do you know that Wagang has three major drawbacks?"

"I want to hear about it!" Li Jiancheng said.

"First, it is the so-called golden horn, silver edge, grass belly. In the battle for the world, geographical advantages are extremely important, and Wagang is in a state of enemies on all sides. If Luoyang can be quickly conquered, it can still alleviate the crisis; if it is difficult to conquer Luoyang for a long time, and the soldiers and horses are hoarded under the fortified city for a long time, the old division is tired and will definitely die. It's just that Luoyang, the capital of the Sui Dynasty, after being built by Yuwenkai, is impregnable, and it is too difficult to conquer Luoyang!"

Li Jiancheng said: "Then why don't Wei Gong abandon the Central Plains and go north!"

"Going north, how easy is it to talk about?" Li Mi sneered: "If you go north, you will inevitably have to clash with Dou Jiande, at that time, they were both righteous armies, killing each other, but it was cheaper than the Sui army." Moreover, in the land of Hebei, there are many gate valve families, and if you want to gain a foothold in Hebei, you must get the support of the local gate valve, and at that time, there will be internal friction with the local forces, and there is no power to expand!"

Li Jiancheng was silent in his heart, if the Wagang army went north, it would be able to get rid of the unfavorable situation in the Central Plains, but the disadvantages were also obvious. These are all reasons, and the most important reason is that the guest army will go north, and if the situation is unfavorable, it will be in a desperate situation.

Moreover, the main body of Wagang is a group of farmers, who have long been blinded by the flowers and rivers of Luoyang, who is willing to go north to suffer hardships!

"Second, the internal division of Wagang is the so-called joy and sorrow, but it is difficult to share wealth and prosperity. In the past, when he was bitter, his feelings were deep, but now he has different thoughts, and there is no friendship in the past!" Li Mi sighed leisurely, and at this moment he also felt that Wagang was beginning to split.

This is also a matter of common sense, many rebels often go to fire after victory, which seems to be the fate of the rebels.

Li Jiancheng said again: "It's good to be together, since you can't be together, why don't you break up, it's no good to twist together, it's not good, it's the so-called big road to the sky, go to one side!"

"If the force is gathered, it will be strong, and if the force is weak, it will be scattered. If it really comes to that point, will Wagang still be Wagang!" Li Mi sneered.

"If you get the money in your hand, it is money, since you can't use it, why don't you give it up, the province will be dragged down!" Li Jiancheng said: "That's better than that, and you will tear your face in the future!"

"This is also the third deficiency of Wagang!" Li Mi said quietly, "Life is like climbing a mountain, if you climb up step by step, even if you fall down a few times in the middle, it doesn't matter, but standing on the mountain peak, as long as you fall once, it will be a catastrophe." And Wagang is now standing at the top of the mountain, so he can only continue to move forward and continue to attack Luoyang, without a trace of retreat. At this moment, even if I know that Luoyang is as solid as gold, we must attack; if I say today that I don't attack Luoyang, tomorrow the hearts of the people in Wagang will be scattered!"

"Wei Gong is really pitiful!" Li Jiancheng said.

This has a bit of a coercion flavor, the thieves coerce the people to rebel, and the generals coerce the opinions of their superiors.

Li Mihao said angrily: "Fighting for the world is frightening step by step, killing machine is continuous, if you want to be stable, simply go home and farm." There are all kinds of disadvantages in my Wagang, but as long as I conquer Luoyang, the disadvantages will disappear, and the world will be determined at that time!"

"Congratulations to Gong Wei!" Li Jiancheng said.

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the world was constantly heroic, each with its own calculations, each with its own abacus, no one is a fool, but whose wishful thinking can be played to the end, it is difficult to determine.

"Duke Tang wants to raise troops?" Li Mi suddenly asked.

Li Jiancheng shook his head and said, "My father prepared the equipment to prevent Liu Wuzhou, not to raise troops and make trouble!"

There are some things that everyone knows, but even if they are killed, they can't admit it.

"If the Duke of Tang raises troops and joins forces with my Wagang, one to attack Luoyang and the other to attack Chang'an, then the Great Sui forces will be scattered, and it will be difficult to take care of the head and tail, and the Great Sui will die at that time. The world is strife, the deer is in the Central Plains, the deer has been slaughtered, I don't know if Tang Gong is willing to work with me to use Jiuding as a tool to cook it!"

Li Mi put forward the intention of cooperation.

............

Leaving Wagang, before parting, Li Mi generously returned the "goods".

Thinking back to Wagang's first qiē and Wagang's final intention to cooperate, Li Jiancheng thought leisurely: Li Mi is too smart!

When it comes to IQ, Li Mi is definitely the top class in this era, and he is far inferior. It's just that it's too smart, it's not necessarily a good thing, many people are too smart, have a lot of scruples, and think about a lot of things, but they lose their way, but they make mistakes again and again, and they are the first to be eliminated.

In history, Liu Bang was not as good as Xiao He in governing the country, not as good as Zhang Liang in strategy, and not as good as Han Xin in military affairs, but Liu Bang finally became the emperor, but these three people were destined to be the lives of courtiers.

It's just because Xiao He, Zhang Liang, Han Xin and others are too smart and have more intelligence than courage.

The fight for the world itself is a street fight.

Don't think too much, don't scruple too much, otherwise you will only be constrained, you will only be unable to move an inch, and you will only fall into a desperate situation step by step.

When fighting for the world, many people prepared a lot, but when it came to the end, they were still defeated.

It's because of the lack of courage.

Fighting for the world and preparing so much is a necessary condition for victory. But if you want to have the last laugh, you can only be like **, encourage your partners around you, come forward to fight in a group, and fight together, at this time, not only rationality, not only calmness, but also courage and ruthlessness.

Liu Bang is a gangster, Cao Cao is a **, and Liu Bei is a scoundrel, so they had the last laugh and became emperors.

And many people, who are too smart and have too many scruples, die early.
