For the Western Wei Dynasty, the conquest of Shu was definitely a major event, and what Yuwentai said to Li Tai was beyond the level of a polite corporal asking for advice.
Li Tai also heard the subtext of Daxingtai from this: the conquest of Shu must go on, and if you can facilitate this, the Chinese and Foreign Governments will agree to it as long as the request is not too excessive.
After pondering for a while, Li Tai said to Yu Wentai: "The Lord favors and trusts so much, I am really flattered. In ancient times, the success or failure of military use was not determined by a moment's twists and turns! Now that we are talking about conquering Shu, it is not only beneficial to the country.
This grand plan is also a plan to avenge past shame. If I have a plan to present, I will never dare to take it for granted. I will work with all the princes in the house to use all my wisdom and skill to come up with a perfect plan!"
"Okay, okay, then I'll be all ears to hear what clever ideas Bo Shan has to present later!"
When Yu Wentai heard that Li Tai had understood what he meant, he clapped his hands and applauded. The smile on his face became thicker and his heart couldn't help but be filled with anticipation.
Because a heavyweight like Li Tai was involved in the matter, Yu Wentai also called more people to attend this meeting. Lu Tong, Chang Sun Jian and other important figures in the government were all present. Wang Yue and others had previously attended the first meeting.
All those who fought in the second expedition to Shu were also recruited, as well as Da Xiwu and other generals who participated in the recovery of Hanzhong. In total, there were more than twenty civil and military personnel.
These personnel were divided into different places, and not all of them were in charge of the government. It took more than an hour just to summon them all.
After everyone arrived, the meeting officially began. Yu Wentai did not directly bring the topic to the defeat of Shu, but smiled and asked Li Tai to give a brief report of his work first.
So Li Tai also picked up some military and political affairs in Jingzhou and made a brief report. In short, he reported seven points of good news and three points of worries. In summary, Jingzhou itself is developing well, but if it wants to make large-scale replenishment, the Chinese and foreign governments will still be unable to do so.
Not caught.
Of course, these contents are what he said, and everyone will listen to them. If he insists on telling the truth, it will only embarrass both parties. For the Chinese and Foreign Affairs Office, the situation in the southeast can be stabilized and the situation in the southeast can be stabilized without making too much investment in personnel.
It is already very satisfying to be able to cope with all aspects without losing the ability.
The completion of Li Tai's debriefing showed that the Jingzhou General Administration did not have the ability or plan to continue launching a war at the moment, and also denied the idea of taking advantage of the situation to attack Jiangling.
After listening to Li Tai's statement, several Guanzhong people present, such as Wang Yue, showed obvious disappointment on their faces. Obviously, this was not in line with their expectations.
Seeing that Li Tai did not continue to fight for and seize opportunities for external expansion, Yu Wentai was also quite pleased. He looked at Li Tai and said with a smile: "Jingzhen's various pioneering achievements in recent years are obvious to all. General Li is not only a famous general in the world, but also a good leader in the country.
Mu! With him guarding the southeast, the court will have no worries, and so will I!"
After praising Li Tai, Yuwen Taixuan even said: "The middle of Shu is located on the southern border, and General Li's territory is also bordering it, and he is also familiar with the personnel of Liang State. This time King Wuling of Liang State was good at doing
He usurped the plan and greatly failed the country's expectations. Once chaos breaks out, chaos will arise again. The people and land in this country are so difficult that it is really pitiful. Nowadays, many people in the country are talking about sending troops to attack the criminals and save them. General Li also wants to
How about next?"
"The Liang family lured wolves into the house and started fighting with each other. The people of Jiangnan were in the same mood and could not survive. All the benevolent and brave people in the world were eager to save him. The former King of Liang joined him and the Lord accepted him. It was because of his moral integrity that many people of Jiangnan were
Thank you. My current plan to save the people and the land in Shu is also a way of spreading benevolence and abiding by heaven's virtue!"
After hearing Daxingtai's question, Li Tai answered seriously.
Poof...
As soon as Li Tai finished speaking, a discordant voice suddenly sounded in the hall. Everyone followed the sound and soon saw Da Xiwu, who was also the general, covering his mouth and snickering.
When Da Xiwu heard what Li Tai said about being crowned Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he couldn't help but burst out laughing. Seeing everyone approaching him, he felt embarrassed for a moment. He quickly reached under the case and pinched his thigh hard.
Immediately, he put on a straight face and nodded slightly, expressing his agreement with Li Tai's speech.
When Li Tai saw this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes at this guy. Although what he was doing was taking advantage of the situation, he still had to find a moral justification for his actions, so as to show the justice of the gang. Even Liangshan heroes are
To uphold justice for heaven, why don’t we punish the people and punish them?
Regardless of Da Xiwu's interruption, Yu Wentai looked at Li Tai and asked: "The former also had a plan in the country, but it didn't go well. Now that General Li has returned to the government, is there any good strategy to teach everyone here?
"
"How dare I call you a teacher? It's just one person's shortcomings and everyone's shortcomings. I will give a brief statement of my own opinions for everyone to correct."
After hearing the words, Li Tai stood up and faced everyone and continued: "The reason why Shu is easy to defend and difficult to attack, critics say, is that it is blocked on all sides, the roads are long and blocked, and there are many strong passes and dangerous fortresses around the branches. The terrain is so majestic.
There is no equal in the world!"
Everyone nodded after hearing this. It is well known that the road to Shu is difficult. Although it is a cliché to say this, as long as we talk about the strategy of Shuzhong, we cannot avoid this point. Li Tai has outstanding achievements, and many veteran generals in the country have great achievements.
Not only that, they also want to hear what other people have to say about how to deal with it.
"The ancient military strategist Wu Zi once said, 'Virtue is not the key to danger.' If a king does not cultivate virtue, his enemies will be wiped out! Although the road to Shu is dangerous, it is still inferior to the people's hearts..."
After hearing this, everyone understood what Li Tai was going to say next. Wang Yue, who had suffered losses in Shu, did not hesitate to expose his own ugliness. He stood up and spoke: "The former entered Shu because they were attracted by the righteous heroes in the country.
, but the result is still..."
After hearing this, everyone nodded and looked at Li Tai, wanting to see what explanation he had for this.
"One grain of millet is naturally not enough to satisfy hunger, but I would like to ask you, can it be used as a meal?"
Hearing Li Tai's rhetorical question, everyone couldn't help but laugh, and Li Tai continued: "King Wuling of Liang has lived in Shu for more than ten years. Although he has not been violent like Jie and Zhou, he does not have the virtues of Shun and Yu. He rashly claimed power.
It is to cut oneself off from heaven and man. Although Shu has not yet become a king, there is definitely no shortage of people with clear righteousness. If you know how difficult it will be for a long time, you will definitely find someone to join you!"
After finishing the routine, Li Tai began to talk about specific personnel: "Although King Wuling is said to be a noble man, he is stingy by nature and does not care about rewards. It is inevitable that the people will be alienated. In particular, the Di in Qiuchi are even more difficult to embrace. The former Yang Fachen acted righteously
Coming here is proof of this. Although Yang Qianyun and other powerful chieftains from Fangyu guarded the north gate for him, they were still not his confidants, and what they asked for was not obtained, and they were full of resentment..."
"Does Boshan really mean what he said?"
Hearing Li Tai's words, Yu Wentai couldn't help but ask. Before, he arranged for Wang Yue and others to go to Shu to rescue and respond to Yang Fachen, but he failed when he was besieged and troubled by the Di forces headed by Yang Qianyun. Now he heard that Li Tai He said that Yang Qianyun was also a target that could be won over, so he was naturally surprised and wanted to be more sure.
Li Tai's recent business dealings with Shuzhong were tens of thousands of pieces of Shu brocade. Of course, he was no stranger to personnel disputes in Shuzhong. When he heard Yu Wentai's question, he immediately recounted these specific personnel matters.
Xiao Ji, the King of Wuling, has been in charge of Shuzhong for many years and has made considerable achievements. The military and political aspects of Shuzhong have achieved considerable development. However, the political and economic aspects are okay, but the military aspect is more sensitive.
There were no heavy troops in the middle of Shu. If King Wuling wanted to develop the military, just like Yuwentai, the most important method was to win over the powerful Fang Yu in Jisu territory. The Yang family of Di people was one of the very impressive armed forces. Yang Qianyun and Yang Fachen They were all powerful chiefs of the Di people. However, because of their superior military strength, the political status of the Di people was not high. Although King Wuling relied on them, he was unwilling to entrust them with important responsibilities.
If Nanliang had not been in chaos, these Di people would naturally not have dared to make noise and cause trouble, and could generally maintain a respectful attitude. But now the Nanliang Kingdom is already in chaos, and these powerful chiefs are naturally ready to make a move.
For example, Yang Fachen, who had raised troops before, was unable to seek an official position and raised his troops in chaos, no longer obeying the orders of King Wuling. Yang Qianyun, who sent troops to pacify the army, also faced the same situation. He thought that he would be awarded a great title based on his achievements. But the result is just a painless reward.
Although the Chinese and Foreign Affairs Office conducted a series of reviews after the defeat and withdrawal last year, their understanding of the personnel in Shu was far inferior to that of Li Tai, who had frequent interest exchanges with Shu. At this time, hearing Li Tai's story, he was also It was inevitable that I had a sudden enlightenment.
