Wang Shichong sent people to find Li Mi, naturally intending to shake hands with him and make peace.
Not only that, Wang Shichong also plans to join forces with Li Mi to deal with Yuwen Chenglong.
"This thing seems a bit strange? No matter what, in name, Wang Shichong and Yuwen Chenglong are both Sui ministers? Then why did Wang Shichong suddenly think of joining forces with a certain family to deal with Yuwen Chenglong? Could it be that this
What conspiracy is there?"
After pondering for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out, Li Mi ordered people to take the envoy down first to entertain him, and at the same time he summoned his chief confidant Zu Junyan.
This Zu Junyan was the son of Zu Jue, an old minister of the Northern Qi Dynasty. He had learned a lot and memorized things since he was a child, and he was a quick communicator.[
After the fall of the Northern Qi Dynasty, Zu Junyan entered the Sui Dynasty and was promoted to Emperor Wen Yang Jian by Xue Daoheng, the Minister of Internal Affairs, but Yang Jian refused to reuse him because of his old past.
When Yang Guang ascended the throne, Zu Junyan was still unpopular and was demoted from the capital. Later, he was transferred to Dongjun as a secretary.
At the end of Daye's reign, Zhai Rang of Wagang Village and Li Mi rebelled and captured Dongjun. Junyan then went to work as a reporter in Li Mi's office.
The so-called recording office is roughly equivalent to the position of secretary.
In addition to helping Li Mi draft documents, Zu Junyan's office also assisted Li Mi in consulting military aircraft and made suggestions for Li Mi's various military operations.
Even though he comes from a famous family, Zu Junyan is quite talented!
When Zhai Rang and Li Mi officially raised flags to rebel in Wagangzhai and announced their crusade against Yang Guang, it was Zu Junyan who drafted the battle statement.
This epistle was written with great literary talent by Zu Junyan. It contains famous aphorisms such as "If we exhaust all the bamboos in Nanshan, we will not be able to write all the sins; if we break the waves of the East China Sea, it will be difficult to end the evil." The so-called "It is difficult to write out all the bamboos" is
From this!
However, although this Zu Junyan has good literary talent, his talent in military strategy is beyond praise!
At the beginning, Li Mi attacked Luokoucang on Xu Shiji's suggestion. The Wagang army expanded its army ten times in one fell swoop, becoming the first rebel bandit in the Sui Dynasty. But then, Zhai Rang and Li Mi had a falling out, and Zhai Rang was eventually sacked.
Kill. Zhai Rang's confidant Xu Shiji was ignored by Li Mi!
At this time, Zu Junyan took advantage of the situation and encouraged Li Mi not to follow Xu Shiji's strategy of conquering prefectures and counties everywhere. Zu Junyan also proposed his own plan, which was to attack the fortified city of Luoyang.
The reason is that once the capital city of Luoyang is captured, the whole world will be able to spread the word!
After being fooled by Zu Junyan, Li Mi stationed hundreds of thousands of troops at the foot of Jinyong City, more than ten miles outside Luoyang City, and began a protracted battle to attack Luoyang.
As a result, Li Mi has wasted more than half a year outside Luoyang City. Not only has he failed to capture Luoyang, but he has suffered a loss of troops and generals.
However, as Li Mi's dog-headed military advisor, Zu Junyan did not realize at all that he had made a bad idea. Instead, he was very proud of himself. A typical manifestation of this is that even though it is already winter, this guy is still shaking a handful of goose feathers.
The fan has a bit of the style of the reincarnation of Wolong.
"Oops! Zu Changshi is here! Please sit down quickly! Please sit down quickly!"
"Well!" Satisfied with Li Mi's enthusiasm, Zu Junyan quickly shook his goose feather fan twice, then bowed and said in return, "Zu is late, I hope Duke Wei will forgive me! I didn't know that Duke Wei called Zu here late at night.
.But what’s important?”
"Well, here's the thing..."
After a few words, he told Zu Junyan, the dog-headed military advisor, what had just happened, and then Li Mi asked, "Zhang Shiya, what do you think about this matter?" [
"Is it like this? Let Zumou think about it..., well, yes!"
"According to Zu, Wang Shichong is afraid that he has the intention to rebel! Therefore, he does not want and dare not let Yuwen Chenglong's Sui army enter Luoyang! Moreover, when the world is in chaos, Yuwen Chenglong from Jiangnan may not be able to
He has no intention of usurping the throne! Therefore, it is reasonable for these two families to be at odds!"
"Well, what Aiqing said makes sense! But now, where should we go?"
"When I return to Wei Gong, I have three strategies: upper, middle and lower. I ask Wei Gong to make his own decision."
"oh?"
Hearing this, Li Mi suddenly became interested!
In Li Mi's opinion, as a dog-headed military advisor, you need to be so clever that you can come up with three ideas with a flick of your eyes! Only then can you show your masterful demeanor! Just like when he deceived Yang Xuangan's stupid
Cross-like...
"Uh..., this Zu Junyan, isn't he going to deceive me by treating me like a fool like I did with Yang Xuangan?"
Thinking of this, Li Mi looked at Zu Junyan with a hint of weirdness in his eyes.
Not realizing at all that Li Mi had seen through the nature of his magic stick, Zu Junyan still waved his goose feather fan complacently, glanced sideways at the roof, and said to himself, "Let me talk about the next move first, that is, in a moment
Use all your troops to attack Luoyang City, and strive to capture the Eastern Capital before Yuwen Chenglong's main army arrives!"
"This is impossible! We have been fighting under Luoyang City for more than half a year, and we have not captured Luoyang City! If nothing happens in Luoyang City, we still don't have much chance in a short period of time! But Yuwen Chenglong can do it at any time
Get there! So, this plan doesn’t work!”
"In this case, Zu will talk about the middle strategy again, that is, to join forces with Wang Shichong of Luoyang and coerce the emperor to order the princes!"
"Well... Well, although this strategy is feasible, Wang Shicheng is not a loyal person. Even if he joins forces with him, King Gu will have to guard against stabbing him in the back! So, unless it is absolutely necessary, King Gu will not choose
This is a great idea! Let’s talk about this best idea!”
"The best thing to do is to go to Guanzhong and join Tang Emperor Li Yuan!"
"uh-huh?"
Hearing this, Li Mi raised his sword eyebrows, and murderous aura rose in his eyes!
As if he didn't notice Li Mi's murderous intent, on the other side, Zu Junyan waved his goose feather fan, not afraid of the cold, and said to himself, "Guanzhong is the land of Longxing, where the people are prosperous and the country is rich, and Hangu is dangerous and easy to defend."
It is difficult to attack. Since ancient times, whoever conquers Guanzhong has conquered the world. Now that Li Yuan is dominating Guanzhong, doesn’t it correspond to the rumor that ‘eighteen sons dominate the world’? Moreover, Li Yuan also has the support of the Turks behind him!”
"Although Liu Wuzhou, Liang Shidu and others are in the limelight, they are not destined to be the ones destined by fate. Sooner or later they will be destroyed by Li Yuan!"
"As for that Yuwen Chenglong, although he is now very powerful, his shortcomings are also obvious. The battle front is too long and he is surrounded by enemies on all sides! Moreover, his name is unfair and his words are unjust. Sooner or later, there will be disaster!"
"So, Duke Wei's best choice is to seek refuge with Tang Emperor Li Yuan! Moreover, now is the right time!"
"Now His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is in a stalemate with the Dingyang Khan Liu Wuzhou, and Wei Gong still has more than 300,000 people under his command. Going to Guanzhong can be said to be a timely help! With this achievement, being crowned the king and paying homage to the Prime Minister is like picking up something from a bag!"
