Chapter 1559 There is a way to advance and retreat
Whether you can ensure your ability to protect yourself is another matter.
Although Empress Changsun is a woman, and because she is a female concubine in the palace, she cannot be exposed to too much political information - in principle, it is best not to understand anything, otherwise the plot of a foreign relative will still easily cause trouble.
Empress Changsun herself is also very aware of this. Although her brother Changsun Wuji is an official in the court and holds a high position of power, she has been careful to keep a low profile in a specific direction to avoid causing trouble. And now...
It’s time for me to hope that my children will also understand this sense of crisis.
Although Li Sheng was radiant, in the eyes of Changsun Wuji as a mother, he was still just a child. Such radiance... sometimes being too bright was a dangerous thing.
I can only hope secretly in my heart that this child can advance and retreat in a correct way and not fall into the trap of the traitor.
…
While Changsun Wuji was praying for Li Sheng's safety.
But there was another picture in Li Er's mind.
Now with the steam car this guy made, the military strength of our Datang Dynasty can be said to be completely transformed.
If it’s not a big job, it’s simply indescribable...
But after all, Li Er has been in the world for so many years. It is impossible for him to just find an opponent A just because he gets the upper hand - based on the current situation, this "just find an opponent" must be a Roman.
.
As for how to play games with the Romans... this is not something you can get good results by just going up to A.
Although Li Er has never watched the live broadcast or been on station B, he still understands the principle that decisiveness will pay off.
Of course, Li Er is definitely not someone who just waits for others to plunder him - if he had that kind of character, he wouldn't be alive today.
That kind of thinking can be used to deal with average opponents. No matter how fierce and brave these opponents are, their thinking patterns are easy to predict and are not difficult to deal with. But...
The era when Li Er became active was the end of the Sui Dynasty! At that time, the hundreds of years of chaos in the Northern and Southern Dynasties were coming to an end. In fact, even if Li Er and his gang did not succeed in their uprising, at first glance there was nothing on the land of China.
Particularly outstanding and powerful characters can also be identified. The hundreds of years of chaos in the Southern and Northern Dynasties have produced too many heroes - and in this final stage, the characters who can be mixed up are not as good in terms of IQ, martial ethics or character.
It becomes more and more powerful.
And currently... although the Tang Dynasty unified China and rebuilt the empire, due to various well-known reasons, the situation of the Tang Dynasty... can be said to have returned to the beginning.
There is actually no difference from the Waganzhai period in the past - there are countless forces in the world, and there are powerful beings like Rome stirring up the situation, just like the situation back then.
At this time, Li Er's experience began to take effect——
No matter how much the Tang Dynasty's military power has been greatly improved, no matter how superior it seems... the Chinese army is, Li Er cannot take the initiative easily, and he must use various means to poke Rome and seduce him.
The Romans played first!
Victory in a war, for top military elites like Li Er, never happens at the end of the war.
Just like top professional game players, a kill never happens when the opponent's health bar is emptied, but when the opponent makes a mistake in a certain move or when a certain skill of the opponent is emptied.
The same is true for Li Er... The key to everything is of course to find out the background of the Romans first. To put it bluntly, it is to see how big the emperor of Rome, the man named Hannibal, can mobilize.
strength!
And since it’s bait fishing…
Li Er thought about it, how to make the Romans mess up. This is really a problem - if you can succeed once, it is the best. If you fail once, opponents of Rome's level are likely to suddenly become vigilant in the future.
Then it will be troublesome.
In order to achieve this step, it is obvious that ordinary inducements will not work - since ancient times, China has had the habit of introspection at the national level due to its precocity - that is, recording and reading history. The reputation of great historians has often been praised by later generations.
Even as good as the heroes they themselves extol. Among these historical records, there are many wonderful cases of using clever tricks to seduce opponents with beautiful women and money, then seducing Cheng Kun, and then winning them in one wave——
Of course, there are more wonderful cases, that is, directly denying the inducement, waiting for the opponent to be unable to sit still, and then planning a counterattack to defeat the enemy. The typical example of this is the burning of Red Cliff.
Compared to the latter, there are still many more strategies of the former's level. Beauty and money have always been a weapon that can make people lose their minds. The great founder of Li Sheng's era in later generations once said: To be a man, you need both wealth and sex.
But the opponents that these things can defeat are all common goods after all, and Rome is obviously not that kind of thing... So the difficulty of the operation this time is equivalent to the level of borrowing arrows from a straw boat.
Li Er knew this very well.
The allusion of the straw boat borrowing arrows, although there are various terrible abilities to see into people's hearts, but in general, it is still a matter of not letting go of the child and trapping the wolf. No matter how accurate Zhuge Liang is with Cao Wei, he still has to have the courage to put a lot of people into it.
Only if the ship is sailing out. After all, a ship full of scarecrows can borrow arrows, but if the other party sets fire to it, it will be in big trouble.
Battles on the river are different from water battles on the sea. The river is narrow after all, and no matter how wide it is, it is still far inferior to the sea. A large number of ships are floating on it. As long as a few of them are on fire, they will be scurrying around and bumping into each other.
More fires will soon follow.
This……
This is where Li Er feels embarrassed and entangled. Datang is now in a critical period of development - not to mention that the steam car has just begun trial mass production, and it has not been long since he went to Lingzhou to open a box.
God, the trial has not even started yet - if there is a major military disaster that results in the loss of troops and territory, or even directly causes the Forbidden Army to be severely damaged and lose its vitality...
This is not an impossible thing to happen. As a king, it is impossible not to consider that the right path is the place of life and death, the way of survival. So, taking action when the risk is so high...
You cannot use the Forbidden Army to sell flaws to attract the Romans to take action...
Li Er thought for a while and discovered his dilemma.
This damn thing is simply inoperable and refuses to be operated...
If you don't use the imperial army to lure the enemy, what should you use to lure the enemy? Now that it is clear that Rome is not a rookie and stupid, it is quite difficult to say what to do next. It is impossible to attract the Romans with ordinary things.
That night, Li Er called a group of civil servants and generals to a meeting!
