First lead the Liang army into Henan, then leave Tongguan and use cavalry to encircle Qiu and Luoyang. The main force goes south, via Nanyang, and passes through Xiangyang to attack Jiangling.
It is also a way to go down the river from the middle of Shu. It is likely that they broke out together and surrounded Jiangling together.
After defeating Xiao Xian, or at the same time, Qiu He surrendered and attacked Hulao, dragging Cao Dan's army firmly in Xingyang. The cavalry then bypassed Hulao from Nanyang and attacked Xuchang...
Xiao Mian imagined the Tang army's strategy last year and couldn't help but be fascinated. It was the same when he followed the army to destroy Chen. The army attacked with great power and was invincible.
Gao Xi, Yang Su, Wang Shao, Han Qinhu, He Ruobi and others are all astonishingly talented and vying to move forward with high ambitions.
Even the brothers Yang Guang, King of Jin, and Yang Jun, King of Qin, are high-spirited and have the appearance of virtuous kings...
Pei Ju couldn't help but be a little lost in thought as he imagined the grand scene back then.
……………………
"Mr. Pei, Gong Pei..." Seeing that he was silent and silent, Bu Qun couldn't help but glared at Li Nian. He meant to see your good idea. He is so old, what kind of advice can he give us?
Look, look, you can lose your mind while talking.
Li Nian glared back angrily, thinking in his heart that if he wanted to blame you, I could only blame you for your soft ears, but you couldn't blame me.
When Pei Ju came back to his senses, he was not embarrassed. He just smiled apologetically and said, "That's what happens when people get old. They always think of irrelevant things and make the two generals laugh.
Alas, it's unbelievable that Xiao Mian died like this, but I don't think the two generals would lie to me... Since you two believe me, can I try to speak for the two generals about Dou Jiande?"
Bu Qun nodded patiently, "If Mr. Pei has anything to say, just say it and we will just listen."
Pei Ju sat up slightly and his eyes became darker, "I advise the two generals not to act rashly. It is better to go to the court and let the Chang'an courtiers make a decision.
The two talked about Xiao Mian. He was a descendant of the Xiao family in Lanling. He came from a famous family and had an extremely noble status. Although he was only a county magistrate when he started his career, he was elected as the leader by everyone, and many families in Jiangyou joined him.
In fact, what everyone looks at is not Xiao Mian's talent, but Xiao Mian's family background. After he became emperor, he did not make many achievements, and his talent was only mediocre. He only had one word of benevolence, and the rest relied on the help of everyone.
Therefore, once defeated, death is inevitable. He killed Zhang Xiu and forced Dong Jingzhen to death. He did not even have the word benevolence. It would be a matter of time before everyone betrayed their relatives and separated."
After talking about Xiao Mian for a while, the topic turned back, "Dou Jiande is different from Xiao Mian. He started out in the rough and may be incompatible with us, but his old subordinates all regard him as a follower, and he has many accounts."
Desperate.
The two generals looked at those people who surrendered and fled when they saw that the situation was not good. They seemed to have no loyalty at all. But in my opinion, once Dou Jiande was killed, they would definitely feel uneasy, fearing that the Tang army would be destroyed.
Start killing.
They will definitely defect by then, and they are naturally no match for the Tang army. But as long as they lead people into the mountains and forests, it will take a lot of effort to search and suppress them. That was how they dealt with the Sui army back then.
The Sui army was no less elite than the Tang army, but there was nothing they could do against them. I think the two generals should think carefully and not make the same mistake as Wang Shichong."
In case the two of them didn't understand, he also explained: "Wang Shichong once suppressed bandits in the south of the Yangtze River. He told the rebel bandits in the counties that as long as they came to surrender, they would forget about it. But when everyone came, he broke his promise and killed tens of thousands of people and surrendered to Huangting Stream.
No one dared to believe what the imperial court said anymore, so the situation got out of hand."
Bu Qun and Li Nian looked at each other in shock after hearing this, as if this was something expected. After all, they had been Emperor Dou's ministers for many years, so advising them not to kill anyone was almost the proper meaning of the question.
It's just that the old guy is a bit clever and speaks eloquently, which makes them feel suddenly enlightened. Xiao Mian deserves to die and Dou Jiande should live. The comparison between the two sides seems to be really what it is.
Bu Qun clasped his fists and said sincerely: "Since I started the army with the Supreme in Yunnei, I have often been taught by the Supreme, saying that those who lead the army should not kill recklessly.
After listening to what Mr. Pei said today, it seems to be similar to what the Supreme said, so it shouldn’t be wrong...
Mr. Pei is a highly respected person. We have been busy with military affairs these past two days, which has made Mr. Pei feel wronged. How about this. If Mr. Pei can still support it, he can temporarily accept the position of military counselor from me, and wait for the imperial edict to come out before deciding where to go.
how?"
Li Nian nodded beside him, thinking that although Lao Bu was a flatterer, he still had rules and regulations in doing things. With people like Pei Ju at his side as a counselor, Hebei should be pacified with less trouble.
So he also said: "Don't worry, Mr. Pei, although we are all rough people, we are different from Wang Shichong. We have kept what we said. To pacify Hebei and Shandong, do less killing, give preferential treatment and surrender, and calm the people's hearts is the established strategy.
I will not embarrass Mr. Pei."
Pei Ju smiled and nodded. He was indeed less worried and worried. The two leaders of the army knew what they were doing. Then they would massacre the city and looting would not happen, and the army would look like a king's army.
Li Ding'an didn't know who he was. During the great cause period, he only had an unknown name. However, within ten years, he had swept the world and was called a loner. He saw that the great cause was about to be completed.
The generals under his command seemed to be less intelligent than the famous former Sui generals, but their ability to obey in just a few words was not comparable to that of the former Sui generals. This may have something to do with the fact that he led troops in battles all year round and impressed his subordinates heartily.
Therefore, even though they were thousands of miles away, the generals before the army did not dare to be a little presumptuous.
Compared with the stoic and stoic Emperor Wu of Zhou Dynasty Yuwen Yong, and the profound and wise Emperor Wen Yang Jian who was good at forming relationships with his ministers, such a great talent and strategy were probably far superior.
I just don’t know how well they governed. Whether it was Emperor Wu Yu Wenyong or Emperor Wen Yang Jian, their achievements lay in their civil and military achievements. They were on par with each other, so they were praised by the world.
Will the prosperity and prosperity at that time return? Pei Ju secretly shook his head. The world has been broken for a long time. If you want to clean up the mountains and rivers and restore the country's prestige, it may be as difficult as climbing to the sky.
Even if there is a world today, what will happen? How many years of cultivation will it take to restore the old outlook? No matter how talented and strategic the king is, he may have a headache when faced with such a mess, right?
After imagining Li Ding'an scratching his head and scratching his head in distress in Chang'an Palace, Pei Ju felt a little relieved. He smiled and bowed slightly, "Respect is worse than obeying orders. I would like to thank the general for taking care of him."
Bu Qun laughed loudly, waved his hand and said: "For someone like Mr. Pei, he must have been wronged here. In my opinion, Mr. Pei will be called to Chang'an in a while and will not be able to stay here for a few days."
The Supreme Lord valued all the former Sui officials. We were all envious of him when he came in and out of the Supreme Mansion when he was in Jinyang, as if he were entering his own house. I guess it will be the same when Duke Pei arrives in Chang'an, which will definitely make the Supreme Lord extremely happy.
When the time comes, Mr. Pei must be merciful and don't speak ill of us."
The atmosphere suddenly relaxed, and Bu Qun's mouth was no longer open to criticism. Li Nian wanted to roll his eyes.
This is the charm of Pei Ju's personality. In just a few words, he initially established trust. If it were another person, Bu Qun might not be so casual with him.
Pei Ju smiled bitterly and said: "Master He and I are not on good terms. If we really get to Chang'an, I might be killed by He Guilin before I can speak ill of you two in front of the emperor."
Bu Qun and the two couldn't help laughing after hearing this.
Li Nian smiled and said: "Don't worry, Mr. Pei. Mr. He is very angry, and it's useful to speak in front of the Supreme Being. But since he tolerates Yun Dingxing, what can he do to Mr. Pei?"
Pei Ju was slightly surprised, "Oh? That guy Yun Dingxing is also in Chang'an?"
Yun Dingxing had a bad reputation and was despised by everyone, and Pei Hongda was not immune. After hearing the words, they both laughed again.
Bu Qun said: "Yun Dingxing was entrusted by Wang Shichong to go to Jinyang a few years ago. The Supreme Being saw that he was still worthy of being driven, so he stayed and appointed him as the Minister of the Ministry of Industry. This made Mr. He very angry. It is said that he said this in front of the Supreme Being
Many Yun Dingxing people are not.
But the Supreme Being did not despise him, and later he succeeded He Gong as the Minister of the Ministry of Industry. He lived well in Chang'an. The Supreme Being is generous, and Duke Pei will know it when he arrives in Chang'an."
That amount is really not small, and Pei Ju agrees with it, but it does not rule out that Emperor Li likes flatterers. After all, Yun Dingxing lived well in Yang Guang and Wang Shichong.
The three of them muttered a few words about Yun Dingxing again, especially when they heard that Yun Dingxing climbed over Queen Xiao's wall when he first arrived in Jinyang and was caught red-handed. Pei Ju was shocked and even more ashamed to talk about it.
It’s past time that I lived in the same palace as this guy.
If there is a chain of contempt, Yun Dingxing is undoubtedly at the bottom of the chain, and almost no one can match his weirdness.
After a few jokes and a few jokes, Bu Qun finally said seriously: "I'm still a little hesitant about something, and I want to discuss it with Mr. Pei."
Pei Ju immediately stopped his smile when he saw his appearance and said, "General, please speak."
Li Nian glanced at Bu Qun in surprise, what else does this guy have on his mind? Why don't I know? Damn it, Lao Bu, could it be that he has been with Zhang Dabeard in Hongnong for a long time and learned to play tricks on him?
I heard Bu Qun say: "I led an army across the river to attack Hebei. It was regarded as the southern route army. The army in the north was led by Yu Wenxin, the general manager of Daizhou, and took the Feihu Road out of Youzhou.
We are marching quickly. Now we have conquered Wei City. We have great success in hand. General Yuchi has gone to Anyang and Wang Cong has surrendered. It should not take much effort for General Yuchi to attack Hanoi afterwards.
Our army of more than 100,000 people has been resting here for two or three days. If we march north to Hejian to attack Youzhou, the local defenders will definitely be waiting for the wind and they should be able to advance much faster than General Manager Yuwen.
Do you think we should wait, or should we pacify Youzhou first?"
Li Nian glanced at Bu Qun again in surprise. Damn he could think of this. No wonder this guy was able to walk in front of us. I didn't think much about it. I just thought about winning Emperor Dou, and the great achievement was achieved.
However, he quickly changed his mind and immediately said: "Pei Gong may not know that General Manager Yuwen has served in Daizhou for many years and has been on several missions to the Turks. He has won the trust of the supreme leader. It is indeed inappropriate for us to compete with him for credit."
Monthly tickets, everyone just do what they can. Ah Cao has been doing two updates a day for four months, and he really can’t add more.
