Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3725
Changsun Wuji has always believed that his strategy is not inferior to anyone in the world.

What is "strategy"?
Strategies and strategies are also determined by people and strategies.

The same strategy works for some people, but it may not work for others.Therefore, "strategy" lies not only in the detailed insights into things and the insight into subsequent development, but also in the accurate cognition of the people involved in the matter.

He has been the "leader" of Guanlong for half his life, how can he not know what kind of character these powerful elders, rich and noble relatives under his command have?In particular, the Yuwen family's mentality of being subdued by Ming and competing secretly over the years is even more insightful.

Seeing the memorials in front of him, Changsun Wuji knew that it must be that the Yuwen family wanted to let the Changsun family's army take the lead, so that the Changsun family could bear the main firepower of the Right Tunwei, while they took advantage of the gap and sat down. Enjoying the benefits of being a fisherman, one cannot be said to be non-vicious in his mind, and his behavior cannot be said to be hateful.

Of course, the eldest grandson Jiaqing is not a good bird, and his insidiousness is comparable to that of Yu Wenlong...

Changsun Wuji had a terrible headache. In normal times, he would praise Changsun Jiaqing's actions. It is a good strategy to weaken potential opponents and preserve his own strength.But the time is now, but he is deeply dissatisfied with his eldest grandson Jiaqing, because any strategy must conform to the current situation.

He only needs to severely injure Youtunwei, and he can regain control of the Guanlongmen Clan's dominance. In the future, whether it is a battle or a peace, he alone has the final say. But if this battle fails, he will even suffer heavy losses. It is also the prestige of his eldest grandson Wuji.

To this day, his prestige that he used to be unambiguous within Guanlong has plummeted continuously, and it would be unimaginable to lose another big defeat.

I hope it's not a remedy after a dead sheep...

Not daring to be negligent at the moment, he hurriedly called Yuwen Jie in, and said: "To draw up an order, order Changsun Jiaqing and Yuwenlong to immediately speed up, go hand in hand, quickly arrive at the designated area, and go into battle. If you dare to violate the order, you will definitely be executed! "

Yu Wenjie was startled, and quickly responded, went to the side of the book case, picked up a brush and wrote the military order on the paper, but wondered what happened to make Changsun Wuji so angry?It should be noted that no matter the grandson Jiaqing or Yuwenlong, they are all veteran generals of Guanlongmen. Although they are getting older and their abilities have deteriorated slightly, their prestige has become more stable. Can't be forced on...

Soon the general order was written, please have a look at it, affix the seal and send it to the main hall, the school lieutenant who has been waiting here has already taken it, walked away quickly, and sent the general order to the two generals on the front line.

Then, Yu Wenjie stood at the door, looking at the Yanshoufang, which was brightly lit and bright as day, with his hands behind his back.

At this moment, this Lifang next to the imperial city was full of soldiers, generals, civil and military officials, and there was an endless stream of messengers and captains who came and went in and out in a hurry, shrouded in an atmosphere of excitement.Everyone knows what Youtunwei means to the East Palace. It is this army that stands outside the Xuanwu Gate and blocks the way for the Guanlong army to invade the Taiji Palace. It also protects the East Palace's channels for external communication and material transportation.

As long as the Right Tunwei can be completely defeated, the Taiji Palace will be in the possession of Guanlong's army. After cleaning up the situation, they can deal with Chen Bing's Tongguan's Li Ji calmly. the winner.

But everyone seems to have forgotten, is You Tunwei so easy to deal with?

Since the day when Fang Jun was reorganized under the emperor's order, this army has become a leader among the armies of the Tang Dynasty.From the previous battles, it can be seen that the superiority of troops that Guan Long relies on cannot be demonstrated at all. In front of the absolute elite, no matter how many mobs are, they are nothing but chickens and dogs, vulnerable to a single blow...

The strategy formulated by Zhao Guogong this time is indeed ingenious. To seize the weakness of the right guard's insufficient strength and it is difficult to take care of both left and right, the two armies advance side by side, that is, they contain each other and rely on each other. As long as one of them can block the main force of the right guard, the other You can take advantage of the vacancy and establish the victory in one fell swoop, but in the end it is still full of variables because of the tyrannical combat power of You Tunwei.

If you win, the situation will be stable and you will suddenly see the light. If you lose, you will be devastated, or even doomed.

Especially since the Yuwen family sent out all their family assets. If they die in a battle, even if Guan Long wins in the end, the Yuwen family may not be able to maintain their previous status from now on. The family situation will plummet, and it may be difficult for their descendants to enter the center of the court. .

If you want to rise and restore the glory of your ancestors, you can only rely on the imperial examination policy that you strongly opposed before.

It's ironic, I have to say...

*****
The more than [-] troops in Chang'an City were mobilized one after another. The two sides were at war, and the war was imminent. The hundreds of thousands of troops stationed in Tongguan also became tense.

Under the city gate, in the government office.

Li Ji, Cheng Yaojin, and Zhang Liang were sitting on both sides of the desk in front of the window, with the candles lit up, but none of them looked relaxed.

Cheng Yaojin put the Chang'an battle report that had just arrived on the table after reading it, and said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid Guan Long is going to put all his eggs in one basket this time, and they can't stand it any longer. More than a hundred thousand Guanlong soldiers, plus the Nearly 20 people gathered around Chang'an for the help of the elite army, and eating horses and chewing horses every day is a huge waste, and no one can afford it."

"Hey! Duke Lu still cares about whether Guan Long can afford it?"

Zhang Liang smiled wryly, and turned to Li Ji and said, "Commander, don't worry about whether Guan Long can support it or not. I'm afraid we won't be able to support it ourselves either. The 20 troops in Guan Long are short of food and supplies. We have nearly 40 troops! Besides, Guanlong is still our own land, we are away, and now we rely on the supply of food, fodder and supplies from the prefectures and counties in the Kanto, but with so many people guarding Tongguan, the food we eat every day is a mountain! These days, the supply of the prefectures and counties in the Kanto region is getting less and less. It is said that the spring is coming, and the grain stocks are exhausted, so they can only be purchased from the market. There is no food."

The so-called food and grass go first before the army moves. The actions of the army are linked to the food and supplies. People have to eat and horses have to graze.

At that time, the morale of the army will be weakened and the morale will collapse. In a blink of an eye, the now highly disciplined army will turn into red-eyed robbers who rob and loot. It will become a robbery, and the robbery will become a murder, and the Guanzhong capital will be reduced to a place where the chaos is rampant, and everyone will suffer...

Cheng Yaojin was taken aback, and stared, "So serious?"

When the army went out, His Majesty Li Er issued an imperial decree to all the prefectures and counties along the way, and must supply the food and supplies needed by the army without delay.So along the way, apart from the accidents of food, fodder and supplies brought by the army, the governments of various places along the way provided supplements, but they did not expect that the supplies were so scarce.

Zhang Liang said unhappily: "You, Lord Lu, straddle the horse and wield the sword all day long, majestic, why have you ever paid attention to such trivial matters? We are not angry with the vulgar things that these people eat."

"Ah!"

Cheng Yaojin sneered, stared and said: "Mother! How dare you talk like this in front of me, you idiot? If you don't deal with it for a day, you will be tight!"

Ever since Fang Jun chopped off his son's hand, Zhang Liang swallowed his anger and did not dare to retaliate. Zhang Liang was nicknamed "Gua Counselor" and was called out to humiliate him from time to time.

Seeing that Zhang Liang's expression changed and he was about to retort, Li Ji quickly waved his hands to stop the quarrel between the two, and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, we won't be staying in Tongguan for long. Now the battle in Chang'an is imminent, and of course we can't tell the winner. Presumably the situation will be completely established. No matter who wins or loses, it is our turn to appear."

Both Cheng Yaojin and Zhang Liang were refreshed, and the former said happily, "It's really going to be tough!"

The latter asked: "In the opinion of the commander-in-chief, what is the outcome?"

Li Ji ignored Cheng Yaojin, who was thinking about fighting all day long, and replied to Zhang Liang: "Zhao Guogong's strategy of going out in two ways and advancing at the same time is a bit inappropriate, although it seems to be able to restrain the limited troops of the Youtun Guard and make Youtun Wei took one thing at the other and created opportunities for each other to sneak in and reach the Xuanwu Gate, but he ignored the internal contradictions in Guanlong. Even the closest Paoze, there will inevitably be some dirty things hidden in each other's hearts, and things like schadenfreude It often happens between relatives."
