And whether they are people with Tangophobia or blind confidence, it is actually the same. Anyway, once the latter actually sees the blood of soldiers, they often become more severe Tangophobia.
This made Yeon Gaesumun upset. Damn it... Goguryeo became a lot richer in the past two years. As a result of this wealth, the customs deteriorated in the blink of an eye.
He shook his head, squinting his eyes gloomily, "Let's see how much time Yang Wanchun can buy for us..."
There is no one in front of me and behind me. It is always like this. I have searched all over the world and can't find anyone I can count on. I can only count on myself.
But I heard that the leader of the Tang army this time was a handsome young man, younger than Li Sheng...
Although the young talents of the Tang Dynasty caused Yeon Gaesumun to have some PTSD, but think about it, how could most of the young people be Li Sheng? Therefore...thinking about it again, Goguryeo's situation may not be so desperate after all.
There is still room for maneuver.
Yeon Gaesumun made this idea clear in his mind, and his eyes gradually became calmer. The generals around him couldn't help but feel relieved when they saw this.
…
A few days later.
Li Ji's army was vast and powerful, coming from the west of the vast wasteland.
Join the 200,000-strong army led by the "King of Beishan County".
One hundred thousand plus two hundred thousand, this is an army of three hundred thousand.
At the beginning of the Zhenguan period in the Tang Dynasty, because of the two auspicious things of sweet potatoes and potatoes, the entire Tang Dynasty suddenly became much richer. At the same time, because of the serious population loss in the war at the end of the Sui Dynasty, Li Yuan started to
In the process of gradually refining the army and streamlining administration, during Li Er's period, he took advantage of the fact that many of the princes and generals had reached the age of retirement and directly reduced the number of troops.
As a result, the size of the Imperial Guard in the entire Tang Dynasty was greatly reduced, reaching a number of over 100,000.
For the Tang Dynasty at that time, the reduction in the size of the Forbidden Army was actually not that serious and terrifying, because during the hundreds of years of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the basic basic organizational units were Wubao and heavy-armored knights. In other words, there were a lot of civilian armed forces.
Germany is also very abundant. If a foreign enemy does appear, these reserves can actually be mobilized quickly.
But the Tang Dynasty is the Tang Dynasty after all, and its rich military virtues are no joke.
At that time, they were eager to replenish the economy quickly, but as time went on...of course the scale of the Forbidden Army had to be increased. In recent years, the Forbidden Army of the Tang Dynasty has once again returned to its original size and dominated the world.
With 300,000 troops joining forces, this scene is extremely exciting just watching it from a distance.
And Li Ji finally met Li Sheng, Li Xiaogong and others.
Unlike Li Xiaogong, Changsun Wuji and Li Sheng didn't have much friendship due to various reasons. Although Li Ji didn't have much friendship with Li Sheng, but!
When Li Sheng defeated the Turks, Li Ji also played a role and acted as a vanguard, so his understanding of Li Sheng was much deeper than the average person.
Li Ji burst out laughing the moment they met, "The Marquis of Shengxiang is fine! Hahahahahaha!"
"Li Ji meets the Holy Commander!"
Li Sheng was watching the movement of the army attentively... No, he was actually watching Li Xiaogong with boredom, mobilizing the army to pick up the hundreds of thousands of new arrivals, when an old guy like Li Ji came over with a loud voice, and he almost fell off his horse.
... Li Sheng was also a little emotional. He didn't expect to know so many famous celebrities. But when we get along with each other, these gangsters... are actually not that mysterious, they are just gangsters.
And soon the two armies were successfully merged. This was not a big project for the Forbidden Army. They were already quite proficient in their usual doctrinal drills, and it didn't take much time to set up camp.
However, since the troops were united and the generals met, it was natural to start discussing the offensive strategy.
Now……
Yuan Tiangang has been in Mobei for a while, and Li Sheng saw him off in person. Visual inspection should have started "work". The army has also joined forces, and its strength has been accumulated. The whole army is waiting for the commander's order.
.
When Li Ji talked about the war with the generals, he couldn't help but sigh immediately,
"This Goguryeo is really not an ordinary person, and cannot be expected by ordinary grassland tribes. The Sui Dynasty had fought with Goguryeo many times in the past, and when the Tang Dynasty was not stable, a certain man also led troops to fight against Goguryeo...
"
"It's a pity that the generals who defended the city were very powerful and the army was well-equipped. However, they were unable to break through Xuantu City."
Li Ji's face was full of regret when he talked about this, obviously thinking that if he had destroyed Xuantu City back then...
Although there is Anshi City, which is more difficult to defeat, if Xuantu City can be captured, we won't be so embarrassed in front of this young man today.
After all, the topic of attack is not easy to talk about, but Li Sheng has really defeated the Turks...
Different from other people, either they had an unconcerned impression of Li Sheng and had thoughts similar to "respecting ghosts and gods and keeping away from them", or they regarded Li Sheng's various miracles as miracles and spread rumors. Li Ji's impression of Li Sheng was...
One thing: this guy destroyed the Turks.
Therefore, compared to everyone else, Li Ji's demeanor was much more relaxed, and in his opinion, he generally couldn't lose.
However, when talking about the difficulty of Goguryeo, Li Ji couldn't help but feel a little heavy.
But after finishing speaking, Li Ji stopped talking. He was waiting for Li Sheng's opinion, but... after waiting for two seconds, Li Xiaogong, Changsun Wuji, and the "King of Beishan County" continued to discuss.
This made Li Ji a little confused. Why did the Holy Commander himself... look so much like a new recruit who was out to see the world?
Take a closer look and tell the truth, it is clear that this Beishan Prince looks more like Li Sheng!
However, surprise was nothing but surprise, and it was important to discuss business. Now that the forces were assembled and Xuantu City was in front of us, the generals decided on the food, grass, and baggage, and then Li Ji took the lead.
"Since this is the first round, and it happens that I have been repairing it for a long time, how about letting me do this first round!"
Li Ji was very generous and directly asked for help. They all came from the late Sui Dynasty, and the generals of Lingyan Pavilion were not timid.
However, when he said this, everyone was stunned for a moment. In fact, no one had thought about this issue. To put it more deeply, no one had any ideas on this matter.
Then, everyone looked at Li Sheng subconsciously.
As soon as this gathering of eyes appeared... Li Xiaogong sighed secretly in his heart.
What else is your Majesty paving the way for? Isn’t it obvious where the Tang Dynasty will go?
As expected, when it comes to major issues, everyone will look at this guy.
Li Ji also smiled secretly in his heart, and then looked directly at Li Sheng and said, "What, the Holy Marquis thinks that a certain person can still fight at such an old age?"
Li Sheng was waiting for these big guys to speak. Unexpectedly, they all looked at him. But Li Ji asked this, and Li Sheng pondered for a moment...
