This layout and perspective immediately impressed Li Xiaogong.
I only know that the people in Youzhou and Zhuozhou have been suffering from border troubles all year round. Now the expedition is just a way to vent their anger for the people. By the way, it can also help the people get rich and enrich the warehouses...
As for whether there were risks in using these powerful Xianbei people as slaves, Li Xiaogong had not thought about it, but he had not come up with any good ideas.
It can only be said that these Xianbei people should be scattered so that they cannot gather in one place.
Use this method that China has always used to reduce the possibility of bandits gathering and prevent them from causing trouble.
But... of course Li Xiaogong was not sure whether he could sit back and relax in this way - in fact, he had no confidence, because Goguryeo was originally composed of both Hu and Han people. It was an empire, and the Xianbei people and the Han people in the north were not at ease with each other.
Quite familiar, and importantly...
He is also very familiar with the rules of the rivers and lakes and the geography of this place. Unless all the prisoners of war are killed, the probability of causing trouble will not be too low.
It is almost impossible to say that it is absolutely safe.
But Li Sheng's words convinced Li Xiaogong that he actually forgot that in addition to the Forbidden Army on land, the Tang Dynasty also had Forbidden Army on the sea!
It is even said that Chai Shao's reputation in the southern ocean is almost the same as that of the King of Heaven. Your Majesty now doesn't know how to reward him for his many military exploits. When I drink and talk with people on weekdays, when I mention Chai Shao, this old guy often talks about this guy.
How happy you are at sea, but...
Now that we have arrived at the battlefield, we have forgotten that this guy still has a large number of pirate prisoners in his hands, which are very useful manpower.
And just as Li Sheng said.
The Xianbei people were local snakes in Goguryeo. After being captured and moved to Youzhou and Zhuozhou, they were still local snakes. But they were sent to the factories in the south... and then the pirates from the south were sent here.
Isn’t this absolutely safe?!
After all, as long as people go out far enough, they will be acclimated to some extent. This is still their own problem. As for where there are mountains and forests in strange places, where are the water sources, and what set of rules do the "local gangs" play? This is even more complicated.
...It is simply a complete and huge ecosystem that cannot be easily manipulated by a "visitor" from a strange place.
And since the place has been changed, most likely no one will be able to play with it...then won't this become stable??
Li Xiaogong felt like she was just like a child in front of Li Sheng. The situation was so different!
However, the battle was successful that day, and the military strength was not lost at all. Although Li Xiaogong was somewhat autistic, he was also more reassured about the prospects of the war. Now Li Xiaogong gradually "understood" that Li Sheng was so carefree, and he was so happy along the way.
Why does his expression look like he is out on an outing?
This is completely crushing, how can it not be leisurely?
Li Xiaogong slept particularly soundly that night. When the next morning arrived, Li Xiaogong was even more energetic.
In fact, it's not just him.
Not all the generals were woken up last night, but early the next morning all the generals knew about the battle last night - and when they heard that there was a wave of fighting last night, the generals who were not woken up during the night, such as Zhang Liang, etc.,
They all looked even more surprised - but not because they were surprised to encounter a hijacking camp at night.
But the enemy troops robbed the camp at night, and they didn't know it!
Looking at Li Xiaogong who was describing the situation, there was some anger in his eyes.
Damn it, you didn’t say anything about such a big thing?
But then they knew what was going on, and the shock in their eyes almost filled the air the moment they knew it.
Li Xiaogong continued to talk for a while, and then they realized that after a long time, the Goguryeo army had indeed come to rob the camp, but... it wasn't that Li Xiaogong didn't wake them up, but that the battle ended right after it started...
Before they even had time to inform them, the other party was almost in a desperate situation, captured a few people, and the general ran away overnight... Because the military camp with hundreds of thousands of people was so large, the sound of grenades could not travel far through the cold wind, so this time and again,
Simply not informed.
After understanding the situation, Zhang Liang and others opened their mouths...
After pouring in an unknown amount of the northern cold wind, Zhang Liang, Zhang Shigui, and Li Daozong started coughing on the spot!
It was over in the blink of an eye?
That's all.
Crucially, no one was injured.
This is a bit abnormal!
Li Xiaogong explained the process, and when Zhang Liang and others heard it, they felt like they had seen a ghost. Such a thing really happened...
Everyone was speechless for a moment, speechless... They couldn't say a single comment, and they didn't know how to comment on such an outrageous thing...
After thinking about it for a long time, Zhang Liang suddenly gave a wry smile.
He also understood that this was obviously Li Sheng's magical airship showing off its skills, and... As for the Holy Commander himself, he seemed casual, but now things are clearly telling everyone that Li Sheng has the capital to be casual.
…
And it's a bit shameless for me to mess around here, because... there is no doubt that I will probably not be able to fight any meaningful and difficult battles!
Thinking of this, Zhang Liang gave a wry smile and simply said, "Look at it like this... Anyway, there is nothing important to do if you just follow the Holy Commander. Why don't the deputy commander let you go out and take the sea route north to have a look, maybe
There is a chance to flank Goguryeo."
When Zhang Liang said this, everyone raised their eyes and looked up. Li Xiaogong pondered for a moment but then nodded, sighing lightly, "Oh...that's fine. Then...general, you've got your work cut out for you!"
Zhang Liang's proposal was a bit whimsical. After all, the army agreed on the basic course of action.
Since the end of the Sui Dynasty, they have been fighting for many years. This group of military ministers have a tacit understanding in their hearts about many things, even the senior soldiers of the imperial army. The temporary suggestion that they would go to sea to find opportunities was originally a sabotage plan. But the current situation...
Li Xiaogong could only say that the person who sabotaged the plan the most was clearly Li Sheng himself!
This guy seemed to be out for an outing, but in the end, with just a few words, Goguryeo was beaten to a pulp, and a city was plundered at the speed of light. There is no doubt about what happened last night... Goguryeo's army will not talk about anything else, but I'm afraid of morale.
This is somewhat of a problem...
At this time, there is really nothing wrong with letting Zhang Liang go out by sea to take a look.
Zhang Liang quickly took action, and this way...
The opening battle was successful and Xuantu City was defeated. After interrogation of prisoners of war last night, it was found that the defenders of Liaoyuan City came, which means that Liaoyuan City was severely defeated in the night battle.
In this way, Li Xiaogong also had a good grasp of Goguryeo's actual strength. After seeing off Zhang Liang that day, he also started to deploy the follow-up campaign plan.
After all, Li Xiaogong is not a bastard general, but one of the top three Tang Dynasty generals in Lingyan Pavilion!
