After thinking for a while, Du Qi shook his head and said: "Up to now, it is already very difficult to stop the retreating Tang army. When the news came back and reached our hands, it was estimated that Li Shimin and the rest of the Tang army People have already left Chang'an. The current Chang'an is just an empty shell."
"In addition, Li Shimin and Li Chengqian, Li Tai, and Li Ke's respective troops have already withdrawn from Chang'an. If we want to pursue them, it will be difficult to succeed. At the moment, it is very difficult to stop Li Shimin's withdrawal."
"I'm curious as to who came up with this proposal to evacuate and move the capital."
Speaking of this, Du Qi said in a deep voice: "Because this strategy is exquisite. Divide troops to open up battlefields in various places, and at the same time contain us. Once we attack one of them, the rest will rise rapidly. And if we want to Divide up and attack the Tang army here, I'm afraid it will be powerless. After all, it is almost impossible to take down such a huge Tang army directly."
Shangguanyi said: "According to the news sent back, the person who made the suggestion this time is Wei Shuyu."
Du Qi narrowed his eyes and said: "If I remember correctly, Wei Shuyu is now by Li Shimin's side and has repeatedly made suggestions. Even according to the news sent back by the bad guys, the main advisers of Li Shimin now are Wei Shuyu and Wei Zheng. Father and son. As for the rest of the people, such as Kong Yingda and Xiao Yu, they don¡¯t have as much power to speak as Wei Zheng and his son.¡±
Shangguan Yi said: "Your Majesty is wise, in today's Tang Dynasty, it is indeed Wei Shuyu who has won the respect of Li Shimin."
"such a pity!"
Du Qi shook his head and said: "Wei Zheng came to be an envoy twice, and I persuaded Wei Zheng to submit. It's a pity that Wei Zheng was unwilling to serve the Xia State from the beginning to the end. If Wei Zheng worked for the Xia State, Wei Shuyu would be easy to handle, and he would return to the Xia State Now both father and son are working for Li Shimin, even if I admire the father and son, there is no way for them to come to Xia Kingdom."
A gleam flashed in Shangguanyi's eyes, and he said: "We can arrange someone to take the opportunity to tie up Wei Zheng. As long as Wei Zheng is taken down, it will be easy to deal with Wei Shuyu."
Du Qi shook his head and said: "It doesn't have to be like this. If you really want to implement it according to your method, it will be easy to be self-defeating. Besides, Li Shimin is not easy to deal with, and the bad people under his command are not weak. What we need to consider now is to deal with Li Shimin's various methods. the way of the army."
"Come on!"
Du Qi gave an order immediately.
Immediately, a soldier entered and stood bowed.
Du Qi ordered: "Notify Ma Zhou and Guan Zhilan to discuss matters."
The soldiers went to convey the order. After a while, Ma Zhou and Guan Zhilan entered together, and they all saluted Du Qi. When Du Qi was about to talk about Li Shimin, a soldier suddenly reported, and then lifted the curtain of the camp tent and entered, reporting: "Your Majesty, there is a letter sent by General Su, please have a look at it."
Du Qi took the letter and opened it to check.
He read it quickly and said: "In Su Dingfang's letter, it is said that the chaos in the country has been suppressed. The Brahmins and Kshatriya races who intend to cause chaos in the whole country have been killed. There is no war in the country right now, so Su Dingfang asked Participate in the war, hoping to attack Datang together."
Although Su Dingfang was born as a general of the Tang Dynasty, but now, it has involved the final battle to attack the Tang Dynasty. If Su Dingfang did not participate, then Su Dingfang would not be able to make any contribution in this battle, so after Su Dingfang completed his domestic mission, he arranged for someone to send a letter to Du Qi, hoping to participate in the final battle against Datang.
Shangguanyi said solemnly: "At present, since the war in the country has subsided, there is no need to worry. After all, everything in the country is under control. Right now, General Su only needs to leave a part of his troops to guard the country, and he can bring the main force to come Participate in the battle. After all, the last battle right now is really short of troops."
Ma Zhou nodded and said, "Your Majesty, I agree to call General Ma to join the battle."
Guan Zhilan also agreed.
Du Qi nodded, and then in front of Ma Zhou and Guan Zhilan, he first talked about the situation in Chang'an, and then said: "At present, Li Shimin's troops are divided and left, each going to one place. If we have enough troops, we can At the same time, we will start a war. As for Braun City, Ma Yuan has already won the victory and conquered an area of ??Persia. We will have the opportunity to attack the entire Persia in the next step. But right now, attacking Persia is not the most important thing. The priority now is To seize the Great Tang first, what I mean is that Ma Yuan's troops will be withdrawn to the territory of the Great Tang, and together they will sweep all over the Great Tang. What do you think about this?"
Shangguanyi said: "Your Majesty, I don't think it is necessary. The reason is very simple. A certain amount of troops are needed to guard the city of Bolang. Moreover, after Ma Yuan captures the city of Bolang, he can continue to defend it."?Advance troops and seize more areas of Persia. So it was not the best plan to call him back. "
Ma Zhou stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I don't agree with Shangguan's suggestion. I think that at the moment, General Ma's main force should be transferred back to Chang'an to help us attack Datang together."
"First, the area within Braun City is quite vast. It is not difficult for Ma Yuan to seize the entire territory of Braun City. Perhaps he has already captured the entire territory. But it is not easy to govern the entire territory of Braun City. It's an overnight thing."
"Less to say, it will take half a year, or even a year or even longer. So right now, it is actually possible to let Ma Yuan leave some troops in Braun City, and Ma Yuan himself leads the main force to withdraw from Braun City."
"Secondly, on the Tang side, Li Shimin, Li Chengqian, Li Ke, and Li Tai are divided into four full forces. If we want to defeat each other, the best way is to send troops at the same time. If we attack one place, then the rest will be easy. Develop and form a force. Once we defeat a certain place and deploy other aspects, the place that was originally defeated is prone to resurgence.¡±
"To defeat Li Shimin's power, it is to complete all his efforts in one battle and completely annihilate all the troops."
Ma Zhou said: "For us, it is actually not a difficult task, because Xue Rengui, Xiao Yuanqi, Ma Yuan, and Su Dingfang are precisely four armies. In addition, there is the Fifth Army of the Left Vanguard to assist. feasible."
Shangguan Yi said: "But after dividing the troops, it means that our troops will be scattered. At that time, the strength of one place may not even reach 50,000. Under this premise, it is very likely that we will be defeated one by one."
Ma Zhou argued: "Our current army has a formation of 50,000 people, but we only need an order from His Majesty to recruit soldiers, so this is not a big problem. In addition, even our military strength has been weakened, let alone Li Shimin's." Troop strength. Li Shimin's original strength was not much, and after the division of troops again, the number of troops was even smaller. Therefore, we still have the advantage."
Shangguanyi frowned.
In this debate, he lost to Ma Zhou, because Ma Zhou's words had gained the upper hand. Shangguanyi stopped talking and left the decision on how to arrange this battle to Du Qi. No matter how vigorously he debated with Ma Zhou, Du Qilai had to make a decision.
Du Qi looked at Guan Zhilan and said, "Guan Zhilan, what do you think?"
Guan Zhilan said: "Your Majesty, I think that whether it is the suggestion of the Chief of the Shangguan Pavilion or Mr. Ma, it is excellent. However, I prefer the Chief of the Shangguan Pavilion, because it is not conducive to advancing troops after the troops are dispersed. Gather all the forces, Only by sweeping all places one by one can we win."
"A woman's view."
When Ma Zhou heard Guan Zhilan's words, he categorically reprimanded him.
He said: "We have enough troops to sweep all over the place at the same time. That being the case, why do we need to gather our troops together. Your Majesty, I suggest that multiple battlefields be fought at the same time." (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
