Lin Hong frowned when he saw that the ranger just bowed his hands to She Yue and wanted to remind him. Luo Xiang, who was standing next to him, had already said in a deep voice: "Don't be rude and don't pay homage to His Highness!"
"Is the princess the princess of Li Tang, or the princess of the current imperial court?" The knight asked Luo Xiang.
Luo Xiang was startled and immediately said: "Of course it's Princess Li Tang!"
"Princess Li Tang lives in a corner and cannot even enter Kyoto, so how can she make the world surrender?" You Xia said calmly: "If one day Your Highness walks into Kyoto as Princess Li Tang, or even steps into the imperial city, then
She is the real Princess Li Tang. The current princess is just the bloodline of the Li family in distress. I am afraid many people do not recognize the princess’s identity as representing Li Tang.”
Changsun Meier frowned and said in a cold voice: "Bold, you!"
But She Yue had already raised her hand, stopped Changsun Meier, looked at the ranger for a few times, and asked: "Your name is Wuming?"
"Li Tang is gone, so a lonely ghost like me is naturally nameless." The knight said: "When Li Tang is revived, maybe I can be famous again."
She Yue said lightly: "So you think you are a loyal minister of Li Tang?"
"I am loyal to Li Tang." Youxia said, "I will do whatever it takes to revive Li Tang."
She Yue thought for a moment and then said: "I heard that you met me to help me solve my problems?"
"If the three states in the south of the Yangtze River cannot be held in the hands of the princess, then the princess's revolt to revive Li Tang will be just a flash in the pan." The eyes under the mask of the ranger Mu Wuming stared at She Yue and said: "Twenty thousand Shence troops have already set off from Kyoto and are heading towards
Yanzhou advanced. The princess knew very well that the Shence Army only had 30,000 troops, and its duty was to defend Kyoto.
This time Kyoto dispatched 20,000 troops to march eastward, which shows that Kyoto is bound to win Yanzhou, and it does not want the princess to take Yanzhou."
She Yue said: "Do you think I can't handle it?"
"With all due respect, the princess is not only unable to capture Yanzhou, but even Yuzhou is in danger." Mu Wuming said: "The princess does have 20,000 to 30,000 troops under her command, but these are all affiliated to the various state camps. Not to mention the state camps.
The equipment is very different from that of the Shence Army, and even in terms of combat effectiveness, it is far inferior."
She Yue frowned, and Mu Wuming continued: "The most important thing is that the soldiers under the princess include the Yuzhou Army and the Yanzhou Army. Although these two troops joined the princess under the leadership of the general, the princess really thought that these two armies
Will centaurs and horses fight for you through life and death?"
"What do you want to say?"
"Yanzhou is determined to follow Kyoto. Although the governor of Yuzhou has sworn allegiance to the princess, it does not mean that Yuzhou has completely surrendered to you." Mu Wuming said: "If the Shence army comes to the city, will Yuzhou still persist? The princess sends troops to rescue.
, are you ready to compete with the Shence Army to see who is the best?"
She Yue listened to his talk with a calm tone, knowing that this person was indeed well prepared and had a thorough understanding of many things.
"If the princess is preparing for a decisive battle with the Shence Army now, there will be several questions." Mu Wuming said: "The first is what I just said, when the princess's troops arrive at the front line, will the troops from Yuzhou and Yanzhou come to the battle?
Switch sides? Especially the Yanzhou Army. Their families are all in Yanzhou. Once the Shence Army threatens their families, even if they are still loyal to you and will not defect before the battle, there will be no more war.
The two armies are at war. If they lose their will to fight before fighting, how can they continue to fight? This cannot be changed by shouting a few loud slogans."
Several other people present couldn't help but nod their heads when they heard this.
"You said this to let me know that it is not appropriate to send troops at this time. We should watch the Shence Army stationed in Yanzhou and then attack Yuzhou?" She Yue asked lightly: "Watching the Kyoto Army forming a siege around Xuzhou
, and wait for them to come to Xuzhou?"
Mu Wuming laughed, and his laughter was slightly hoarse.
Although She Yue could not see his face clearly, from the moment he started speaking, she could tell that this man was not young, at least around fifty years old.
Hearing him laugh at this time, his pretty face showed an unhappy look.
Although her temperament has changed a bit in recent years and is no longer as arrogant as before, her inner temperament doesn't just change.
The other party was a ranger. If it had been a few years ago, this person's attitude today would have definitely aroused She Yue's anger. Not to mention whether he would be punished, but he would certainly not allow the other party to continue to be so presumptuous in front of him.
However, She Yue was very knowledgeable and patient after listening to what he said, and did not have an attack.
"That's right." Mu Wuming nodded and said, "In my opinion, what the princess needs to do now is to strengthen Xuzhou's defense and wait for the Shence Army to attack Xuzhou."
Luo Xiang couldn't help but said: "That's a bunch of nonsense." He said to Lin Hong: "Dong Lin, the Mu Daxia you recommended seems to be an ignorant person who talks nonsense."
Mu Wuming suddenly turned his head and looked at Luo Xiang. Those eyes were extremely sharp. Staring at Luo Xiang, it was like two sharp knives piercing into Luo Xiang. Luo Xiang was stared at by these eyes, and his heart was filled with anger.
I was stunned and didn't dare to say another word.
She Yue stared at Mu Wuming and asked calmly: "Why do you think so?"
"After the princess raised the flag, why were so few people responding?" Mu Wuming then looked away from Luo Xiang and looked at She Yue and asked: "With the wisdom of the princess, of course she understands that all the states in the Tang Dynasty are staring at Xuzhou.
, I want to see what will happen next. The situation is unclear, and no one dares to act rashly."
She Yue nodded and said, "You are right."
"The princess is preparing to send troops to fight for Yanzhou, of course not just to get Yanzhou." Mu Wuming said: "The princess's intention is of course to let the world see that you have the strength to compete with Kyoto."
She Yue said: "Go on."
"But have you ever thought about it, princess? The forces of all parties may not care whether you can win one or two battles. What they want to see is that the princess can stand her ground." Mu Wuming said: "The princess has not been in Xuzhou for a long time and has not yet stood.
Secure your footing and immediately compete with Kyoto for Yanzhou, have you ever thought about how the people of the world will view it?"
She Yue frowned slightly and asked, "How do you think about it?"
"They will think that the princess is eager for quick success, and may even think that the princess is motivated and not stable enough." Mu Wuming said: "In this case, many people will think that the princess cannot calm down and achieve great things. Once the army is really sent out and fails to win,
Then everyone will feel that the princess is embarrassed at all and will not raise the flag to respond."
Luo Xiang showed an angry look and hesitated to speak. He seemed to have been frightened by the cold and stern eyes of Mu Wuming just now.
Lin Hong couldn't help but shouted: "Master Mu, don't be rude in front of the princess."
"Dong Lin's family, such as
If the princess wants to hear flattering words, there is no need for me to come with you to meet her." Mu Wuming was very calm and said in a calm tone: "Since the princess wants to revive Li Tang, she should obey her.
Others' opinions. Maybe what I said is not right and is different from what the princess thinks, but if you want to achieve great things, you must be able to listen to different ideas. At least after listening, you will think more about it, which is not a bad thing." After a pause,
Then he continued: "Like the princess, I am willing to revive Li Tang at all costs, so if I feel that I am interested in reviving Li Tang, even if the princess blames me, I will speak out and remonstrate with you."
Hearing this, She Yue nodded and said: "You are right, I am willing to listen to all kinds of advice." He ordered: "Sit down and talk!"
After Mu Wuming thanked him, Lin Hong had already sent a chair over.
After Mu Wuming sat down, he continued: "I just said that there are several problems with sending troops to Yanzhou. The first is that some soldiers may defect before the battle, and the second is that once defeated, everyone in the world will know that the princess has no power to fight.
If Kyoto resists, not only will no one respond to the princess, but some loyal people who want to kill the thieves will even lose confidence." After a pause, he said: "So there is no need for the princess to fight for Yanzhou at the moment.
Even if the Shence Army attacks Yuzhou, the princess does not need to send troops."
"I can accept what Mu Daxia said before, but Yuzhou is in trouble, how can we not save it?" She Yue frowned and said: "The governor of Yuzhou has been loyal to me. If there is trouble and I turn a blind eye, the people of the world will be more worried.
I will not support this palace."
Mu Wuming laughed and said, "If it's because
The princess is still motivated to send troops. Yuzhou is the granary of the Tang Dynasty. Thirty percent of the world's food comes from Yuzhou. Logically speaking, this is of course a battleground for military strategists. But exactly like this, the princess should not be here.
It's time to fight." He leaned forward slightly, stared at She Yue and said: "In the battle between military strategists, the first thing they fight for is money and food. Compared with Yanzhou, Kyoto is even less likely to give up Yuzhou. If the princess wants to take Yuzhou into her pocket, she must
There is a fierce battle of life and death with Kyoto, this fierce battle is even a decisive battle between the princess and Kyoto, and the power currently in the hands of the princess is simply not able to defeat Kyoto in a single battle."
"I still don't understand what you are talking about." She Yue said: "You said that the first thing that military strategists fight is money and food, and you also say that Yuzhou is a granary. Now you say that I cannot compete with Kyoto for Yuzhou. Isn't it a contradiction in words?
?”
Mu Wuming shook his head and said: "There is no contradiction. When I say no dispute, I mean now, and when I say we must fight, that is also autumn!"
She Yue turned her eyes and seemed to understand something.
"It is winter now. After spring, the people will sow and work hard, and there will be a harvest in autumn." Mu Wuming said: "The princess is eager to rob Yuzhou now. Not only is she not sure, even if she really captures Yuzhou, she will not be able to do so.
quiet."
Lin Hong said at this time: "Your Highness, Jiangnan merchants will only purchase grain and grass after autumn. If Your Highness takes control of Yuzhou, Kyoto will definitely not give up and will definitely launch offensives against Yuzhou again and again. Once this happens, Yuzhou will be in flames.
, the people will not be able to farm, and in autumn, there will probably be a food disaster due to the war, with disastrous consequences."
musk deer
Yue is thoughtful.
"The current Yuzhou is a hot potato." Mu Wuming said: "Whoever holds Yuzhou will not be able to take the initiative. If the princess temporarily loses Yuzhou to Kyoto, the Shence Army will be stationed in the nine counties of Yuzhou. In this way,
, the garrison strength of each county will be limited. Before autumn, the princess can often send light cavalry to roam around Yuzhou to make them unbearable. In addition, can the Shence Army be stationed in Yuzhou for a long time? Yuzhou must defend the princess.
It is necessary to gather a large number of troops, and the daily consumption will not be small. After losing Jiangnan, will Kyoto still have the ability to continuously maintain the logistical supply of huge troops and horses?"
When Mu Wuming said this, She Yue's eyes lit up slightly.
"Of course, the situation I mentioned is not that easy to form." Mu Wuming said: "After Kyoto captures Yuzhou, they will definitely not be stationed in Yuzhou. They will definitely march into Xuzhou, and this is the princess's rejuvenation.
The most important step for Li Tang. Only by first defending Xuzhou and letting the Kyoto troops withdraw to Yuzhou will the situation I mentioned be formed. As long as Xuzhou is defended and the position is established, then everyone in the world will know that the princess has the ability to strategize.
Then someone will raise the flag and respond." He stared at the princess and said word by word: "The princess now needs to use defense as offense, and first protect her own foundation before she has a chance to revive Li Tang, otherwise everything will be just a dream!"
