    Feng Lun didn't speak. He pondered for a moment, looked at Changsun Wuji and Du Ruhui, who were standing aside in silence, and said, "What are the opinions of Changsun Canjun and Du Canjun?" (Fang Xuanling's main expertise is  In terms of logistics management, military aircraft matters are not his specialty, so Li Shimin generally does not allow him to participate in such military decisions, but Changsun Wuji and Du Ruhui are his two major think tanks, and together with Li Shiji, they become the three major decision-makers.  .) Changsun Wuji curled up his lips and said: "It is a taboo for military strategists to attack a fortified city. Now that Dou Jiande is taking advantage of the situation, he is unstoppable. There is no danger to defend the city of Luoyang, and he will face Wang Shichong.  In the danger of being flanked by Dou Jiande, the top priority is to withdraw the troops quickly and return to the Tongguan line, so that we can advance and retreat leisurely, and then make a decision based on the subsequent development. " Du Ruhui's eyes flashed coldly: "I don't agree, we are in Luoyang.  The city has paid such a heavy price, and if we retreat now, all our previous efforts will be wasted, and the Central Plains will definitely fall into Wang Shichong's hands again. It will be difficult for us to leave Tongguan by then, although Dou Jiande comes with great momentum, but he will.  Hebei is empty. I think that if you urgently report to the prince of Bingzhou, let him send troops out of Taihang, go straight to Dou Jiande's lair, and force him to return to the army. As long as Dou Xia's army cannot attack Luoyang City, Wang Laoxie will not be able to hold on for long. " Li Shimin hooked up!  He raised his lips and did not express his opinion immediately. He looked at Li Shiji who was silent on the side and said, "General Li, you are the most intelligent general in the army. What do you think of the opinions of the two soldiers who joined the army just now?" Li Shiji raised his head  He raised his head, with a pair of clear black and white eyes, and said loudly: "Wang Shichong has experienced many attacks from us, and more than half of his main elite soldiers have been lost. The defenders are still weak, and they have no chance or courage to dare to go out of the city to fight.  , if there is no foreign aid, it will only be a matter of ten months before he is captured and surrendered. However, Dou Jiande cannot see the general trend of the world and tries to come all the way to compete with our army. This is a great opportunity given to us by God.  Being able to wipe out Dou Jiande's elite troops in the Central Plains saves us from having to go to Hebei to fight with him again. I think this battle must be fought and cannot be retreated!" Li Shimin smiled and nodded.  He said with conviction: "General Li, it is a good thing for young people to be high-spirited, but the current situation of our army is not good. Although we have received new military rations, we have been under the fortification of troops for more than half a year, and it has been more than a year since we left the border.  Now that the division's veterans are tired and their thoughts are at home, even if they can barely continue to siege the city, but now they are facing Dou Xia's new force, their morale is shaken. How can they be safe if they face a combined attack by two armies below Luoyang City?  Well, Wang Shichong is not a dead tiger. Judging from his ability to defend the city, he still has tens of thousands of elites in his hands. With the help of foreign aid, he will definitely cooperate with the inside and the outside. When the time comes, if our army is defeated, it will not be easy to even return to Guanzhong.  "Du Ruhui sneered: "General Qu Tu, you may not be too conservative in thinking about things. Wang Shichong withdrew from the defense of Dongdu not because of the loss of his troops, but because our troops were dispatched too fast and he had no time to assemble.  Troops from various prefectures and counties, including Central Plains prefectures and counties, surrendered after hearing the news, but Li Jing and Yang Xuangan, who were in the vassal towns in other places, stood still and wanted to stand on their own.  But this does not mean that he cannot fight. As you said, his elite troops are Jianghuai warriors with extremely fierce fighting power. However, because they have no army rations, they can only stay in the isolated city and dare not easily fight a decisive battle.  " "This time Dou Jiande's army came, and it was well-equipped with food. According to the report in the Tang newspaper, he marched by land and water, transporting food by boat, starting from the Hangou section of Tongji Canal and moving forward. Once our army retreats,  As long as the siege of Luoyang is lifted, Wang Shichong's Luoyang garrison will get food and grass, and its fierce fighting power will be restored immediately. If we want to defeat him again, it will be difficult to reach the sky!  " Feng Lun's eyes were shining. He had been listening to everyone's opinions and making his own calculations. When he heard this, he said: "But Du Canjun, if our army defends here, we will face the confrontation between the two armies.  A pincer attack, what should I do?  If Wang Laoxie in the city is not a dead tiger and still has the ability to fight in the city, then our army will besiege the city on all sides and the enemy can defeat it everywhere.  It is better for us to withdraw our troops, withdraw from the siege, and concentrate our forces so that we can establish an invincible position.  " Having said this, Feng Lun looked at Li Shimin: "And I thought that Dou Jiande delayed sending troops for half a year. I'm afraid his purpose was not only to break the siege of Wang Shichong, but also to take advantage of this opportunity to kill Wang Laoxie in one go.  Destroyed!  Now the city of Luoyang has reached its limit, and there is not enough food and grass. It relies on a force of energy to defend it. Once the siege is lifted, this force will be relaxed. When Dou Jiande enters Luoyang as the savior, he only needs a group of soldiers to defend it.  Capture Wang Shichong and become the lord of the Central Plains.  " Li Shimin's eyes sparkled and he nodded: "Yes, this is indeed very possible, so we can't let these two thieves join forces.  Feng Zhongshu, do you have any good ideas?  " Feng Lun curled up his lips: "I thought that our Tang Army would notCaught between the two thieves, this will become the target of their joint attack. Wang Laoxie is not a fool. He will manipulate Dou Jiande like this. As long as we send an eloquent person to the Eastern Capital to inform Wang Shichong of our interests and harms.  As a condition for withdrawing from the siege, we forced them to cede the western and northern states and counties of the Central Plains. In this way, it would be logical for us to withdraw our troops, and those states and counties would also fall into our hands.  " "When Wang Laoxie is relieved of the siege, there will be no need for Dou Jiande to cause trouble again, and he will definitely be asked to return to Hebei. Dou Jiande's trick has failed, and he will definitely become angry and have a head-on conflict with Wang Shichong. In this way, the two thieves are fighting each other.  Our army just sits on the mountain and watches the tigers fight. Isn't it the best strategy to eliminate them all together?  "Feng Lun's words made all the generals in the tent nod. Liu Hongji was the first to stand up: "The last general seconded the letter of seal.  " Duan Zhixuan, Hou Jun gathered, and Qu Tutong also stood up one after another, cupped their hands and said: "The final general will second the letter of seal.  " Li Yuanji laughed and stood up: "Second brother, what the letter said is good. This is a mature strategy for planning a country. We are foolproof, so let's act accordingly!  " Li Shimin's eyes were fixed on Feng Lun's face, like two sharp arrows, which made Feng Lun feel a little weak. He curled his lips and was about to speak when he heard Li Shimin's voice slowly sounded:  "Feng Zhongshu, your proposal sounds foolproof, but we actually lost Luoyang. How can we make up for this loss?  "
