That is, he would lead three thousand elite cavalry to set up an ambush outside the pass. I dare not say that he could hit the target with one strike and kill the Turks to a pulp, but he would definitely be able to carve out a bloody path when the Turks encircled them and attacked from both sides.
He has the ability and the confidence.
But he did not speak out about this method because he knew very well that Cai Yungong, Chen Shuda and others would not agree to his role as a powerful general who charged into battle.
During the war, Li Shimin was able to lead more than a hundred cavalry to frequently provoke the enemy's city walls because Li Shimin was not the leader of the Tang Dynasty, and also because Li Shimin had a huge army behind him.
At present, hundreds of thousands of Turks are raging outside the customs. Those who go out to attack are a lone army, and there is a 99% chance that they will never return.
Therefore, Cai Yungong, Chen Shuda and others would not let him go no matter what.
Unless he could pass on the identity of the person in power to Li Jiancheng on the spot and go out to set up an ambush as the King of Qi.
The question is, is this possible?
"Which one of you has a solution?"
Li Yuanji looked at Cai Yungong, Chen Shuda and others and asked.
Youdao is one of the three cobblers, one more than Zhuge Liang.
What's more, it's a group of outstanding people who have left their names in history.
Since Liu Hongji had no choice but to tell his solution, he could only ask the ministers.
"If His Highness Prince Yan can be dispatched to Lanshi to help, then this situation can be solved..."
Someone whispered something nonsense.
Li Yi can indeed fight, and the soldiers and horses under his command are all elite soldiers and strong generals.
During the previous campaign against Liu Heitai, one man led an army from Youzhou to Xingzhao, covering half of Hebei Province on horseback.
If he is sent to Lanshi to poke the Turks in the buttocks, it will definitely make the Turks extremely happy.
But Li Yi's attitude towards the imperial court is unclear now. After Li Jiancheng was defeated and imprisoned, he almost lost contact with the imperial court and did not send anyone to Chang'an to express his attitude.
Even his younger brother Li Shou was summoned back by him for some reason.
It's too late for the court to guard against Li Yi now, which will show Li Yi his weakest side.
What if Li Yi has decided to rebel and has established a relationship with Liang Shidu and the Turks?
If you send Li Yi to Lanshi to help, isn't it just to lure the wolf into the house?
Li Yuanji ignored this guy who was talking nonsense. Cai Yungong, Chen Shuda and others even pretended not to hear his nonsense.
"Do you have any way to deal with it?"
Li Yuanji asked again, still the same question.
Cai Yungong, Chen Shuda and others all shook their heads after hesitating for a long time.
Liu Hongji, who is known as the most successful person in the founding of the Tang Dynasty and has always been unparalleled on the battlefield, can't do anything. What can they, a few civil servants, and a bunch of military officials who are not as good as Liu Hongji do.
If you let them carry swords and go to the battlefield to fight the Turks head-on, they can do it, but if you let them find a way to break the situation, they really can't.
"Xue Shou, where is Yu Zhining?"
Li Yuanji thought of Xue Shou, Yu Zhining and others who were accompanying them.
These two people have been with Li Shimin over the years, and they have often helped Li Shimin make suggestions and help Li Shimin resolve dangerous situations.
Cai Yungong, Chen Shuda and others have no choice and can't count on it, so let's see if they can do anything.
"I just arranged for you to go to the city treasury to count the weapons."
Chen Shuda bowed and responded.
The battle Xiao Guan was about to face this time was extremely ferocious, so he needed a lot of ordnance, among which arrows were the most important.
Therefore, we must count one or two to see if there is enough. If not, we must quickly give the order to Li Gang and others, and ask them to order the supervisor and others to speed up the production.
"Summon them here for questioning!"
Li Yuanji ordered.
As soon as he finished speaking, a stone bullet landed on the corner of the city gate building. After a bang, a gap was created in the city gate building.
Gravel, rubble, and wood chips flew everywhere.
Cai Yungong, Chen Shuda and others almost subconsciously surrounded Li Yuanji in the middle.
Li Yuanji was very depressed, Liu Hongji was also very depressed, and all the military officials were also very depressed.
Li Yuanji had already seen this kind of scene in Weizeguan, and had seen many of them, so he didn't have any worries in his heart.
Liu Hongji and other military officials had been in the army for many years, so they were no longer surprised by this situation.
"Go get my armor!"
It was not suitable for Cai Yungong, Chen Shuda and others to serve as bodyguards, so Li Yuanji ordered people to retrieve his armor and stomach.
The person with the armor and stomach in his body and the person without the armor and stomach are completely two different people.
With his armored stomach, he is not afraid of any stone bullets or loss. When necessary, he can also act as a human trebuchet, showing the Turks what it means to be a true god on earth.
Without an armor and a stomach, he is easily injured by stone bullets and runoff. He is just extremely powerful, but not invulnerable.
The rubble thrown by the stone bullets and the sudden arrows could cause fatal injuries to him.
Therefore, in order to prevent himself from being hurt, and to prevent Cai Yungong, Chen Shuda and others from being implicated in order to protect him, he had better wear a stomach armor.
"I will send someone to summon you right now!"
"I will send someone to get it now!"
Cai Yungong and Chen Shuda spoke one after another.
When they were about to leave, Li Yuanji said to the civil and military personnel: "You should also go down and put on your armor, so as not to be injured by the runoff and gravel. That would outweigh the gain."
All the civil and military officials agreed and left the city gate building together.
After all the civil and military officials left, Li Yuanji slowly stood up and said to Liu Hongji: "Take me to see how many Turks there are outside the city."
I've been talking on the city wall for a long time, but I haven't seen the Turkic camp outside the pass, nor the vast expanse of white mentioned in the document, with the animal skin tents at the end completely invisible.
Liu Hongji hesitated for a moment, then ordered someone to bring a huge shield and set it up at the crenellation in front of the city gate tower, and then he took Li Yuanji to the city wall.
The smell of fireworks on the city wall was very strong, and it also carried a strong stench. It was so strong that it could hardly be dissipated. It was blown by the cold wind and enveloped everything inside and outside the pass.
The soldiers shouted loudly and pointed their bows and crossbows at the Turks outside the city.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The Turks set up ladders, carried round shields, and operated trebuchets to attack.
The momentum on both sides was strong, and the shouts of killing were loud.
Lost arrows come and go like rain.
As soon as Li Yuanji lay down at the crenel and took a look outside, he saw an overwhelming barrage of arrows coming from the air.
There are dots of black and the whole area is very oppressive.
Liu Hongji immediately stood in front of Li Yuanji with a shield and urged Li Yuanji to go back to the city gate building.
Li Yuanji said with a smile: "I have seen this kind of scene at Weizeguan. It doesn't scare me, so you don't have to be nervous."
At this point, Li Yuanji wrinkled his nose and said, "As we speak, are the soldiers using gold juice?"
Golden juice is a thick liquid boiled from feces. It is boiling hot. If you pour it in a pot, any enemy who is scalded will be scalded, and the wounds will become infected quickly.
If you can't cut your flesh and wrist quickly, you will basically die.
There is no way, who can let there be no antibiotics at this time.
In addition to gold juice, there are also a series of feces-related sharp weapons such as dirty arrows.
The purpose is to cause the enemy to become infected with bacteria and die painfully without any medical treatment.
Although it is inhumane to do so, who on the battlefield will tell you about humanity?
The only thing everyone on the battlefield can do and say is to kill the enemy in the fastest and most convenient way.
Determination methods such as polluting water sources and spreading plague will all appear on the battlefield.
Both the righteous party and the evil party will use it when they go crazy.
Even if they know that polluting water sources and spreading plague will have serious consequences, even if they know that this is a method that can kill a thousand enemies and damage themselves by 800, the leader will not hesitate to use it when it is time to use it.
use.
In the eyes of many corrupt scholars, humanity is the bottom line of being a human being and something that must be adhered to as a human being.
But in the eyes of the general who leads the army, only those who have won and are alive are qualified to be human beings and to talk about humanity.
Therefore, using every possible means is the correct way to start a war, and it is also the cruel part of war.
"Yes... At present, the elite Turks have not yet emerged, and the soldiers and horses of the Liang Division have not moved. Powerful weapons such as bed crossbows must be used sparingly, so gold juice and other items are the best weapons to repel the enemy."
Liu Hongji nodded and replied.
Gold juice is not only free of charge, but also easy to find, easy to use, and very lethal.
Definitely use it when you can.
If you don't use it when you can use it, you are squandering the natural resources.
Li Yuanji nodded and said: "Use whatever is convenient to repel the enemy. However, there is no need to save on bed crossbows and other items, because you may not be able to fight with the soldiers and horses of Liang Division for a long time."
Liu Hongji looked at Li Yuanji puzzled.
Li Yuanji smiled and explained: "When I first left Chang'an City, Tang Jian, who I sent to Yanzhou, sent back the news that he had convinced Tudiji and a dozen tribes outside Yanzhou to form a group.
A cavalry force of 13,000 men set off to attack Shuofang City.
With how much Master Liang attaches great importance to Shuofang City, he will return support no matter what."
Liu Hongji looked stunned. He didn't know this happened.
He only knew that Li Jing led a troop of soldiers and horses that quietly left Xiaoguan a long time ago and disappeared into the vast grassland outside the pass. He guessed that they were going to see Jieli and Tuli's wife, who was Kehe Dun.
Since Xiao Pass is the only way to the Turks, Li Jing had to pass through Xiao Pass, and only then did he see some clues.
But Yanzhou was far away in the northeast of the Tang Dynasty. There was no need to go through Xiaoguan to go to Yanzhou. No one disclosed this information to him, so he didn't know anything.
Now when he heard what Li Yuanji said, he realized that Li Yuanji had arranged such a trick.
Let Tu Diji lead people to poke Liang Shidu in the ass, but Li Yuanji couldn't think of it.
However, he had to admit that this move was still very good.
Because he didn't expect Li Yuanji to do such a thing, Liang Shidu naturally didn't expect it either, so Tu Diji would definitely succeed in the sneak attack this time.
If the soldiers and horses led by Tu Diji are brave enough, they can also raid Sanfeng City on the edge of Shuofang City.
It is said that the grain and grass collected by Master Liang and the money collected in recent years are all stored in Sanfeng City.
If Tu Diji could lead a wave of plunder, he would definitely be extremely rich.
After all, although Liang Shidu had been paying tribute to the Turks over the years, he still accumulated a lot of money and food by relying on extortionate expropriations and going south to clear grass and valleys with the Turks.
This money and food is enough to quickly grow the Tudiji tribe dozens of times, or even more.
The most wonderful thing about this move is that in Liang Shidu's eyes, Tu Diji is just a big grasshopper who leads three thousand households and only has three or four thousand people who can control strings. It is impossible to provoke such a giant as him, and he cannot afford to offend him.
This behemoth, so he won't be on guard against Tudiji, and Tudiji will be better able to sneak attack.
