He has a pattern that people of this era don't have.
Because of the understanding of history and the speculation about Li Ke's character.
When Li Shimin did those things to Li Ke, he already had a premonition of what was going to happen next.
So before returning to Jiangnan, he asked Xiao Chuzi to sneak to Liangzhou to wait for news.
What he wanted was to be able to respond immediately when the day actually appeared.
And Xiao Chuzi also did his duty and completed the tasks assigned by Li Chengqian very well.
On the day the news of the accident came back, they approached Liu Qi and Feng Guangyao.
In other armies, Li Chengqian might not be able to make such arrangements.
After all, deploying troops is a big deal.
Even if he is now the crown prince, he still has to get Li Shimin's handwriting or the copper fish used to mobilize troops.
If not, wouldn't everything in the world be in chaos?
Of course.
It's not possible in other places, but he can in Liangzhou.
After all, Liangzhou is still his fiefdom, and he is also the governor of Liangzhou.
Although these positions may seem insignificant, they seem to be empty positions with no real power.
But you must know that Li Chengqian was serious about serving the country and the people here, and he had been fighting for the people for more than a year.
What kind of person he is is clearly visible to the people.
Moreover, the Liangzhou Army has been accompanying Li Chengqian since his debut.
At the same time, he also has an old man like Li Shimin helping him advocate and build momentum in Liangzhou, even if he wants to have no influence in Liangzhou.
And under such a war background, and the opponent was a powerful force like the Shu Army, how could Li Chengqian not dispatch the Liangzhou Army?
If you don't bring them here, let's ask, who is the opponent of the Shu army in this world?
I’m afraid Li Shimin’s Shenwu Army wouldn’t even dare to say this with patting their chests... After all, in these years, there have only been three armies actually fighting on the battlefield, one is the Liangzhou Army, the second is the Bingzhou Army, and the third is the Shu Army.
Including the Shenwu Army, they have not been on the battlefield for six or seven years.
Even after the Battle of Tuyuhun, many soldiers had not seen blood for several years.
Let them come, I'm afraid if they really agree to Gao Zhixing's words, they will simply go up and die.
And the reason why he told Gao Zhixing not to send the Liangzhou Army over was simply not to send them to Jiangnan Road.
After all, Liangzhou is thousands of miles away from Jiangnan Road, and there are rebels blocking their waterways, making it impossible for them to transport heavy firearms.
It doesn't matter whether the Liangzhou army comes or not.
Of course, we can also let the Liangzhou Army fight steadily and eliminate the rebels first before moving closer to Jiangnan Road.
But in this case, it is just a cannon to fight mosquitoes, and it is overkill.
After all, the real opponent of the Liangzhou Army should be the Shu Army.
Good steel should also be used on the blade, otherwise there would be no point in letting them come.
Therefore, Li Chengqian had only one solution.
Xiao Chuzi looked straight at Liu Qi and Feng Guangyao in front of him and said: "Your Highness said that if the Shu army leaves Shu, the Liangzhou army will immediately send troops to attack Shu in a detour, and must capture Yizhou City within half a month!
"
"Yizhou?"
Hearing this, Liu Qi couldn't help but be a little surprised.
He really didn't expect that Li Chengqian would come up with such a risky plan.
Located in the core area of Shu.
At the same time, it is also the main city of Shu and the main palace of Jiannan Road.
Capturing this place is equivalent to capturing the entire Shu land and the home base of the Shu army.
And once Yizhou is captured, Li Ke's rebels will be able to defeat them without attacking.
But is Yizhou so easy to win?
If he could be captured so easily, wouldn't Xiang Yu have killed Liu Bang long ago?
If he could be captured so easily, how could Cao Cao be unable to unify the world in his lifetime?
Therefore, Shu is far from being as simple as it seems.
Shu is surrounded by mountains. If you want to enter Shu, you must either go upstream from the Yangtze River to Shu, or you must take the Jianmen Pass.
Entering Sichuan by water is a fantasy.
Not only will traveling upstream affect the speed of the ship, but the other party will also definitely place sentries on the shore.
The Liangzhou Army is not a team that is good at water fighting.
Let them have a water war, it is better to let them go to Jiangnan Road.
Therefore, if they want to take maximum advantage, they can only take the land route, which is Jianmen Pass.
And Jianmen Pass guards the throat of the Golden Bull Road. The saying "If you break the Jianmen Gate and burn the plank road, the whole of Sichuan will be completely different" is definitely not a lie.
The Longmen Mountain around Jianmen Pass is steep and the terrain is complex.
Even to the time of Li Chengqian's previous life, he has not yet been overcome.
When building highways, we still have to bypass this dangerous area.
What's more, for people of this era, it is a complete chasm and an insurmountable place.
Therefore, there is Longmen Mountain here. If you want to cross it, you can only turn southeast and turn into the relatively low-lying Jianshan Mountain area.
Although the Jianshan mountainous area is also extremely dangerous, it is still a place that individuals can pass through.
From this, it is not difficult to see how difficult it is to enter Shu.
Li Bai sighed, as long as someone can occupy this place, he will definitely dominate the mountain and become the king. This is not an empty statement.
And Li Chengqian's purpose is also obvious.
He used himself as bait to attract as much firepower from the rebels as possible.
The Liangzhou Army was sent as the main force to sneak around and attack the center of Jiannan Road.
Gao Zhixing was also sent to intercept Li Ke, so that he could not respond immediately after learning that there was a fire in the backyard. Support immediately.
Of course, he himself did not put himself in a too dangerous place.
As he said himself, as long as Li Shimin reacted quickly enough and could quickly mobilize troops to destroy the rebels, he could only lead his men to defend the city for a few days at most.
But Liu Qifang was very worried.
He said: "The terrain of Jiannan Road is complex. Although it borders Longyou Road, it is blocked by natural obstacles."
"In those high mountains, let alone one hundred and eighty thousand soldiers and horses, even if there are only ten or twenty thousand people guarding them, we may not be able to defeat them in ten days and a half."
Liu Qi said with some melancholy: "Let alone take Yizhou within half a month."
"If you can't take it, you have to take it."
Xiao Chuzi directly imitated Li Chengqian's tone and said: "His Highness said that you only need to follow his instructions. If you are given half a month to win, you must take half a month to win."
Hearing this, Liu Qi was also stunned.
He looked at Xiao Chuzi with a confused face and said, "Your Highness really said that?"
"Yes."
"His Highness also said."
"This time, you two are allowed to dispatch all the troops in Liangzhou."
Xiao Chuzi said: "Moreover, you can also bring all the artillery shells accumulated in his treasury and ordnance camp."
Hearing this, Feng Guangyao smiled.
"Old Liu, why are you still hesitating about this?"
"If you bring a full set of weapons and equipment, why don't you start a fight with those brats crying for their fathers and mothers?"
He raised his head and looked at Xiao Chuzi and said, "Father-in-law, please feel free to go back and deliver your errands. We will definitely complete the orders given by His Highness."
Hearing this, Xiao Chuzi glanced at Feng Guangyao, and then looked at Liu Qi: "General Liu, what do you think?"
"I think it's okay too."
Although he felt uneasy, Liu Qi gritted his teeth and agreed.
He said: "Even if we risk our lives, we will take Yizhou..."
