    ?

    ?Suzhou, within the territory of Jiuquan County.

    Now Li Shimin's army is rushing towards Jiuquan County.  This time Li Shimin was surrounded by an army of more than 200,000 soldiers, which was already the largest force Li Shimin could muster.

    The army arrived at noon, and the army stopped to rest.

    Today the weather is getting hotter and hotter.

    Li Shimin found a big tree and hid in the shade to rest.  Beside Li Shimin, there are Gao Shilian, Yu Shinan, Chai Shao, Xiao Yu and others. These important officials in the court all went out with Li Shimin this time.

    As for the country, Li Chengqian is still in charge of the country, assisted by Fang Xuanling.

    When Li Shimin went to battle, he instinctively wanted to bring Fang Xuanling with him.  It's just that the rear needs someone who can sit in charge, and Fang Xuanling is the most suitable candidate.  With Fang Xuanling around, even if Li Chengqian was young, Li Shimin was not worried.  While Li Shimin was resting, a sentry came rushing over. The sentry came to Li Shimin's side and reported: "Your Majesty, urgent report from the front line!"

    While talking, Sentinel handed over the letter.

    Li Shimin took it and quickly opened it. After browsing through it, a smile appeared on his face. He waved his hand and ordered the sentry to continue to inquire about the news.  Here we come. Du Qi left a group of troops outside Jiuquan City, and then Du Qi led an army across the road, preventing us from going to Jiuquan."

    Gao Shilian said: "Your Majesty, Du Qi did this because he wanted to repeat the previous battle at Niulan Mountain. In the previous battle at Niulan Mountain, the army led by Du Qi was also blocked by us and flanked by us. At that time, Du Qi  Qi is to arrange a part of the troops to stop us with all their strength, and then turn to destroy the army led by Duan Zhixuan."

    After a pause, Gao Shilian continued: "Finally, face us alone again. In fact, this time, Du Qi's plan should be similar. Du Qi personally led the army to stop us from rushing to help, and then let the people from Jiuquan City  Xia Guo's army wants to annihilate the army led by Li Ji. Du Qi's arrangement is actually extremely simple."

    Li Shimin said: "Although it is simple, you must be cautious. Because Du Qi's weapon is still extremely powerful,"

    Gao Shilian nodded.

    Li Shimin discussed with everyone, and they finally came to a decision, that is, no matter what the situation ahead, they had to go all out to fight, even if Du Qi set up mines this time, they had to wade through.  As long as it breaks through Du Qi's defense line, it means changing its behavior and changing hands, and the Tang army can take the initiative.

    The team had lunch at noon, took a short break, and replenished water before continuing on their way.

    The army marched mightily, and hurried on their way.

    Galloping all the way, finally getting closer and closer to Jiuquan City.  It's just that when they approached the position thirty-eight miles east of Jiuquan, Li Shimin's army stopped, and the army temporarily stationed.

    Because Li Shimin got the news that Changbaipo, two miles ahead, was where Du Qi's army was stationed.

    Du Qi's army is indeed in Changbaipo.

    The geographical location of Changbaipo is actually a hillside. It is just that the army led by Li Shimin has to browse Changbaipo before they can reach Jiuquan City.  And Du Qi's army stood on Changbai slope.  In other words, this Changbai slope is the tent that Li Shimin's army will attack, and it must be conquered before it can pass.

    If it is a detour to the rest of the place, it will take at least ten more days.

    So Li Shimin can only go here.

    Li Shimin's army temporarily stopped and stationed in place.  Now, he is already thinking quickly, thinking about the strategy to defeat the enemy, because at the moment, he must think of a way to kill the past.

    Li Shimin summoned Gao Shilian, Yu Shinan and others, and said in a deep voice: "Du Qi has occupied Changbai Slope, especially this time the road is more difficult than the road in Niulan Mountain. When we were in Niulan Mountain, Du Qi  The Chinese army ambushed on the mountain and occupied the high ground, and we only need to go down the mountain to pass. But this time, we have to climb the Changbai slope before we can lead to Jiuquan. So this time we have to really climb the mountain and completely defeat Du Qi  Only with a large army can we have a chance to win this battle. Unfortunately, this is where the difficulty lies."

    Gao Shilian said: "Your Majesty, the easiest way is to imitate the setup in the bullpen. We just need to keep digging ditches, bend them around, keep going up, and we will be able to kill them in the end. As long as we get on the long cypress  On the slope, our army of more than 200,000 is enough to win an overwhelming victory. You must know that Du Qi sent part of his troops to the Western Regions, and part of his troops to guard the country. Now Du Qi still has a part of his troops  Outside Jiuquan City. Our soldiersThe number of people is completely dominant.  "

    Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "Of course I know this arrangement, but this plan alone is not enough. Therefore, another arrangement is needed to ensure that Changbaipo can be captured directly, and Du Qi will not be allowed to act fiercely."

    Gao Shilian was suddenly dumbfounded.

    He couldn't think of any other way out.

    Yu Shinan said: "Your Majesty, I have a plan."

    Li Shimin said: "Yu Qing plans to come out?"

    Under Li Shimin's command, Yu Shinan is the oldest person, already in his seventies.  He has gone through the periods of Southern Chen, Great Sui, and Great Tang Li Yuan, and in Li Shimin's current period, Yu Shinan is highly valued.  Especially Yu Shinan, who is not only excellent in calligraphy, but also has an upright temperament, has a considerable influence in the court.

    One of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion is Yu Shinan.

    Yu Shinan stroked the gray beard under his jaw, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, now that Du Qi has occupied the high ground, if we want to kill him, it will still be difficult to dig a trench and transport soldiers up. Of course, this is also a strategy that can be adopted.  Under this premise, the veteran thinks that merchants from the Xia Kingdom can be used to open the way. When His Majesty sent troops this time, he brought some merchants from the Xia Kingdom into the army. These merchants are all from the Xia Kingdom. The reason why your Majesty  The purpose of bringing these people is to prevent Du Qi from being needed in case of emergency. Now, why not use these people? As long as Du Qi is bombing, he will first kill the businessmen of Xia Kingdom and kill them first.  People from Xia Kingdom. It depends on Du Qi, how to choose?"

    He knew Li Shimin's intentions.

    It was to take advantage of this group of captured Xia businessmen, but Li Shimin begged not to speak directly about such an arrangement, so Yu Shinan took the initiative to speak out.

    As Li Shimin opened his mouth, Gao Shilian's eyes lit up, and he echoed, "Your Majesty, Du Qi was originally extremely ruthless. At the beginning, Du Qi once threatened you with Hou Junji, then Duan Zhixuan, and even my Tang Dynasty  The soldiers threatened him. Up to now, we have also used the same method to treat the other person, and used the same method on Du Qi. As long as Du Qi dare not fire or use weapons to bomb, then this  If you fight us, you have a chance to win."

    As the two agreed, the rest nodded in agreement.

    It is related to the victory or defeat of Datang, and no one is willing to refuse, especially since they are all high-ranking officials of Datang now, and they are both prosperous and detrimental with Datang. Once Datang is really destroyed, their power will also be lost.  , so even if harsh measures are taken, these people are willing.

    Seeing that everyone agreed, Li Shimin had a smile on his face, nodded and said: "Since everyone agrees, then we will use two approaches in the next battle. First, arrange people to dig trenches;  The merchants in the business constrain Du Qi. As long as we succeed in coercing Du Qi this time, we will start a war with Du Qi in the future, and things will be easy."

    "Your Majesty is holy!"

    Everyone spoke in unison.

    Each of them also had a look of expectation on their faces.

    Li Shimin was determined in his heart. After he and his subordinates agreed on specific arrangements, without any delay, the army set off again and began to go in the direction of Changbaipo.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
