After entering Su Dingfang's military camp, dozens of his generals and lieutenants were kneeling in front of Li Xiang. Li Xiang used to be very rare with this title, but since his rebirth, most people have called him His Highness Now.
Now we are handsome men too.
"The armor is with you. You don't have to kneel down from now on. Please get up."
People in the army have long heard that although His Highness is of noble birth, he can get along with the people in the army, otherwise he would not be able to achieve so many victories. It is said that several old generals have a good relationship with Li Xiang.
.
At the beginning, many people suspected that Li Xiang had any aristocratic aura. You must know that this is a military camp. If Li Xiang behaves like a young master to them, the front line is really inappropriate. Goguryeo is such a small country, and our Zhongnan Dynasty
They have been fighting for decades, and they have been disobedient to discipline since the time of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty. If they are not dealt with this time, they will be scolded in history.
This time, the emperor has mobilized 200,000 elite troops, and His Highness Taisun is personally in command. Everyone has one idea in mind, that is, to conquer Goguryeo as soon as possible, and then return to the court. Many people have been stationed here for five or six years.
Years have passed. In these five or six years, my son has grown into a man, but they have never met him.
"Everyone has worked hard here. The Emperor has a decree. No matter whether this battle is won or lost, everyone will be promoted to one rank first."
After sitting on the main seat, Li Xiang came first to win people's hearts. This was also announced by Li Shimin. However, since Li Shimin did not come now, Li Xiang announced for him first that official positions in the Tang Dynasty could be promoted based on hard work.
But if it's a title, that's impossible.
According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, you must have meritorious service on the battlefield, including some heroes who can only have a life-long title when they are born, and it will be gone after you die. This can be regarded as a compliment to you, but I
If you want a title that can be passed down, you have to fight on your own on the battlefield.
Under this social system, who doesn't want to leave more benefits to their descendants, so after arriving on the battlefield, these people will work even harder.
"Thank you, Your Highness Taisun."
Looking at the neat people in front of him, Li Xiang understood one thing, that is, Su Dingfang was good at running the army. If the management was not strict at ordinary times, these people might have various forms now, and they would never be like this.
neat.
"I came to the military camp in advance, not to talk nonsense to you, but to launch an attack on Goguryeo in advance before our army came. I believe you are also holding back your anger. It's not that the emperor won't let you.
Attack in advance, but within these two years, we must weaken Goguryeo to the maximum extent. Now the time is ripe, and it is time for the generals to make contributions. I have decided to launch an attack on Goguryeo within three days."
After Li Xiang finished speaking, many people below were extremely happy. From the day Li Xiang was reborn, the plan here changed. It was originally to pursue and fight against Goguryeo, but we won on the frontal battlefield.
, this is what all soldiers are best at.
But Li Xiang suddenly gave these people an idea, which was to take a wrong approach. When they started to farm, our cavalry attacked lightly. We didn't want to annihilate many of them, as long as they couldn't farm on time. There were many people at that time.
Everyone thinks this method is not feasible. Doesn’t it make us Datang too stingy? Don’t we dare to fight them head-on on the battlefield?
Nowadays, no one says this anymore. In the past year or so, we can say that we can see clearly that the decline of Goguryeo can be seen with the naked eye. When this strategy was not implemented, we
If the cavalry of Goguryeo met the cavalry of Goguryeo, and the numbers of both sides were equal, we might suffer some losses. After all, they are familiar with the local terrain.
But in the past month, we have not seen Goguryeo cavalry while patrolling outside. If we want to talk about the most recent battle record, it should be one and a half months ago. More than 70 cavalry from both sides met. Our people
He chased them for more than fifty miles and finally beheaded them all.
At that time, all the officers and soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were shocked. You must know that this was the first time that the armies of both sides had faced off since the strategy of Shishi Li Xiang. Where had the Goguryeo army, which could only fight hard battles, gone? Many people were confused after returning.
I couldn't believe it. After they reported the news, the court knew it was time to take action.
If we don't take action now, it is very likely that others will take advantage of us. You must know that there are two countries to the south of Goguryeo, and there are Heisui Mojie to the north of Goguryeo. Although they still exist in the form of tribes, if
If they really gathered together, they might pick our peaches, so Li Shimin made a decisive decision and immediately prepared to conquer Goguryeo, which led to this series of events.
"Please rest assured, Commander, all of us are in good order. At present, the main offensive force of our army is more than 24,000 cavalry. In addition, there are more than 18,000 heavy infantry and 20,000 heavy infantry.
The rest of the light infantry are currently waiting for the commander's orders."
There are a total of 60,000 to 70,000 people on Su Dingfang's side, all of whom have completed their training. They are not idle at ordinary times. It turns out that every three thousand people form a brigade. They cross the border at every turn to harass the farmers of Goguryeo, leaving them helpless.
Farming on time, although there will be some casualties, but their efforts are not in vain, just look at the current food shortage in Goguryeo.
"General Su has a good way of leading troops. I saw it clearly when I came here. After this battle, General Su will definitely be transferred back to the capital, and I will definitely recommend General Su."
Su Dingfang has been executing the orders of General Li Jing and running the entire Northeast region in an orderly manner. If it had been anyone else, there might have been many ways out. Originally, Su Dingfang did not rise here, but gold always shines.
While completing the task, he can also bring himself a brilliant future. Li Xiang will never treat such a capable person badly, and Datang will never treat such a capable person badly.
Their future has long been tied to the wheel of Datang. Without them, how could Datang expand externally?
