Today, the military generals of the DPRK and the Central Government live in groups in the Liangyi side hall. On the smooth and reflective floor inside the hall, there is a clear map of Tuyuhun, on which the mountains, rivers, towns and passes, and the territories of the famous kings are all clearly visible.
The emperor was dressed in black and gold uniforms, holding a Tang sword in his hand, and walking back and forth on the map with cotton socks. The historian had already voluntarily withdrawn from the hall. It involved military and national affairs, and the historian had no courage to listen.
The generals knelt on both sides, their eyes focused on the map under the emperor's feet.
"Spring plowing this year was very good. The seeds are in the ground and the weather is good. I believe this year will be as good as last year." Li Zhiyun looked around at his beloved generals with a smile.
Li Daoxuan, the King of Removal, said: "Brother Emperor's kindness is spread all over the world. Even God will bless my Tang Dynasty with good weather."
"His Royal Highness King Chu is exactly what he said." Several people agreed.
After the meaningless opening remarks, Li Zhiyun's eyes condensed slightly and he said in a deep voice: "In the past few years, either because of the Turks, Xue Yantuo, or disasters, I have always tolerated Tuyuhun's rampage in Liangzhou and other Western Region counties.
They pretended to be bandits and robbed my merchants' goods and luggage, but I tolerated them.
Why endure, because I know that it is not the time to deal with Tuyuhun. In the past, I and the generals decided on the strategy of going north first and then west. Now that the grassland tribes are weak, they are subordinate to us in the Tang Dynasty and support our soldiers and people in the Tang Dynasty.
In the past two years, with the blessing of God, the people of our country have been able to farm smoothly and everyone lives and works in peace and contentment. Since the First World War in the Turks, our country has not used large-scale troops for four or five years.
Generals, can you still eat?"
Yuchi Gong said carelessly: "Your Majesty, give me the order. I will go and twist off Fu Yun's head and use it as a chamber pot for you."
"Vulgar." Cheng Yaojin complained.
"Are you elegant?" Yuchi Gong glared.
Qin Qiong coughed dryly and glared at them. How could he not understand the seriousness of such a serious occasion?
"Your Majesty, please listen carefully to the Holy Instructions!"
All the generals surrendered.
Li Zhiyun looked at Li Jing and said, "Pharmacist, please tell me."
"yes."
Li Jing stood up and walked to the map.
"Generals, if one of you is not talented, let me discuss one or two first."
"General Li please."
Li Jing nodded and spoke: "The Tuyuhun land is very vast, mountainous and forested, very deep, and even because the terrain is too high, it is easy for those of us who live in the plains to suffer from breathing difficulties.
Your Majesty calls it, Gao
Original reaction. Therefore, if we attack Tuyuhun in this battle, we must encircle Fuqi City in one fell swoop to prevent Fuyun and his remnants from escaping, and completely kill all the royal families of Tuyuhun so that they cannot be repeated. Just like the old events of the Sui Dynasty, we must again
on one's last legs.
In Tuyuhun, there are more than 100,000 soldiers with armor. Among them, Fu Yun accounts for 50%, Murong Shun and Dayan Mangjiebo each account for 20%, and the remaining 10% belongs to the famous kings. If our government raises troops, Fu Yun will definitely
They will mobilize all their domestic subjects to compete.
Therefore, this battle cannot be delayed, and we must remember six words: win with justice and win with surprise. Our army is fighting in an away field. The location is favorable and the people are not there. The battle line cannot be long, and the time cannot be long. Otherwise, all the people of Tuyuhun will become an army.
We will be stuck in the quagmire.
According to the current intelligence, Murong Shun has been subdued by Your Majesty. This person can be an internal agent, instigate rebellion against many famous kings, and serve as our flank. Fu Yun and Dayan Mang have formed a group of enemies, and have always been at odds with our court. They should be killed.
people.
Dayan Mangjiebo controls the west, and the important town is located in Shanshan. Before the attack on Tuyuhun, we can choose to attack Shanshan with a partial force to delay the main force of Dayan Mangjiebo, making it difficult to return to aid and ambush Qi in a short time. The main force of our army will be
The soldiers crushed the capital's entrance and approached the cow's heart pile!
In this way, Fu Yun will definitely send a large army to defend. At this time, confront each other with the right, and go astray when the strange is wrong, and destroy Fuqi City in one fell swoop."
After finishing speaking, Li Jing took a deep breath, bowed to the emperor, and slowly returned to his original position.
"What do you think?" Li Zhiyun asked with a smile.
In fact, what Li Jing said this time was just a rough outline. The more detailed marching route had already been secretly given to him. After all, he had already asked Li Jing to prepare a strategic offensive plan to destroy Tuyuhun, and it has now been completed.
Xu Shiji thought for a moment and said: "Listen to what Li Gong said, this time to attack Tuyuhun, there should be three armies, two of which are virtual and only one is real?"
Li Zhiyun said: "That's not necessarily the case. All the way is emptiness, all the way is reality, and all the way is killing."
Hearing this, all the generals looked thoughtful.
Immediately afterwards, Qin Qiong asked: "Your Majesty, Shanshan is an old county in the former Sui Dynasty, far away in the Western Regions. If the troops and horses attacking Shanshan are in vain, where should we source supplies?"
"Su Lie can lead Gaochang soldiers, horses and sheep to attack Shanshan." Li Zhiyun said.
"I see." Qin Qiong said: "In this case, your Majesty is planning to use Li Daliang, the general manager of Liangzhou, as a real force to lure his main force into a confrontation, and use Duke Wei as his killing move."
"As expected of Uncle Bao." Li Zhiyun smiled.
In the next half month, the emperor and his ministers made countless plans to conquer Tuyuhun. There was a first plan, a second plan, and even a withdrawal plan in case of defeat. There were more than a dozen plans.
As a general, he does not think about victory but thinks about defeat first, so he can fight a hundred battles without danger.
This does not mean that you must consider the consequences of failure, but a truly famous general will consider defeat to find out the shortcomings of the plan.
After formulating the plan to capture Tuyuhun, the Six Ministers of the Political Affairs Hall quickly began to formulate corresponding grain and fodder supply plans.
At the beginning of May, the entire strategy for the attack on Tuyuhun was completely decided. Tuyuhun was inevitably on guard. The attack plan was kept secret throughout, and only the central ministers and generals knew about it.
Later, Li Zhiyun issued an order to appoint Li Jing, Duke of Wei, Minister of War, as the general manager of the Longyou Road march, with 50,000 troops. Xu Shiji was appointed as the general manager of the Shanzhou Road march, and Wang Li Daoxuan was appointed as the general manager of the camp, and eight lieutenants were appointed to conquer Tuyuhun!
This is a large-scale secret operation. It is not announced directly from the beginning and widely publicized. Instead, it waits for all parties to be in place before launching a rapid attack.
In addition to the killing move, Li Daliang, the general manager of Liangzhou, crushed the capital's entrance, and Su Lie, the Duke of Xin State, led his army to attack Shanshan.
Three groups of troops advance together!
The Duke's Mansion of the State of Yue.
The old brothers in Wagang gathered together to congratulate Xu Shiji, Niu Jinda and other old brothers on being able to go out with the army this time.
For them, although they have not yet won, they are full of confidence. As long as His Majesty wants to destroy anyone, he has never let anyone escape.
Therefore, this is the credit of Po Tian.
Xu Shiji toasted continuously, and his face turned red after drinking. Old brothers, such as Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin and others, had already been granted the title of Duke of the country, appointed as the governor, and became famous. And he, because of defeating the Turks, was able to obtain the title of Duke of the county and official position.
It's also so-so.
This time, with the recommendation of his old brothers, he still wanted to earn a dukedom from Tuguhun and return it to his descendants.
"Brothers, I won't say anything else. I will keep your care for me in my heart." Xu Shiji raised his hands towards the brothers.
Cheng Yaojin said: "Old Xu, don't be embarrassed when you go to Tuyuhun this time. Shubao and I promise your majesty that you will win."
"Don't worry Yizhen, I'm from Xu Province."
Niu Jinda chuckled and said, "It's a pity that the Fifth Lady is not here, otherwise he might be able to hang out with us this time."
Qin Qiong said: "Jun Xian is now the Governor of Songmo, I'm afraid he won't like you, hahaha."
"Jun Xian has a bright future." Xu Shiji sighed.
Among the brothers present, none are more successful than Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin. They were the two who pacified all the grassland areas, and they were also one of the first great governors. Now, such a big thing as the destruction of Tuyuhun would naturally not be possible.
