Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 4143
Li Jing is also unwilling to fight such a battle, but as a soldier, how can he be tired of fighting when the war comes?
Then he said with a weary look: "The point is here, what about after capturing or killing King Jin alive? What about the Youhouwei? What about the reinforcements formed by the powerful families in Shandong and Jiangnan? As long as King Jin surrenders or fights If they die, the rebel army will disappear in smoke, but they have not disappeared, they have just died down, accumulating strength and waiting for the next opportunity to come, and they will still form an army and bring disaster to the world."

Cheng Chubi suddenly realized, and looked at Tongguan on the map: "The commander-in-chief wants to let the right Houwei retreat calmly, retreat to Tongguan and wait for reinforcements, and then wait until the rebel reinforcements arrive here for a decisive battle.

Li Jing walked back to the table with his hands behind his back and sat down, and said slowly: "This is not my commander's idea, but the general situation. If the right Houwei retreats to Tongguan and waits for help, this battle will inevitably involve a lot of blood and blood. Such an order cannot be given by the crown prince, it can only be undertaken by us as the commander-in-chief."

What kind of general is a general who can't take the blame?

This truth has been understood since the moment he refused to stand behind His Majesty Li Er during the Xuanwu Gate.

As a general, you can't just consider your own interests and reputation. Everyone wants to be a loyal minister, but they are unwilling to pay the price of being a loyal minister. Your Majesty, where did Li Ji and others become famous later on?

After a pause, he continued: "...It's not necessarily a decisive battle, because the reinforcements composed of clans from Shandong and Jiangnan may not be able to reach Tongguan smoothly."

Cheng Chubi was at a loss, feeling frustrated, his thinking couldn't keep up with Li Jing's thinking...

"It's just a simple strategy, you don't have to be discouraged, you have to go step by step, and you have to learn one by one. At the beginning, the commander followed his uncle's tent and obeyed his orders. After many years of hard work, he was honed. , you young people are all so ambitious, but you don’t know that leading troops to fight is the most taboo of arrogance, without experience, it is difficult to achieve great things, and you are still far behind.”

Li Jing disagreed, and patted Cheng Chubi's shoulder to comfort him.

Cheng Chubi also understood what Li Jing said, but his own generation was dismissed as worthless, and he couldn't help being dissatisfied in his heart, so he said, "What about Fang Er? Fang Er is two years younger than General Mo, but these years he has conquered the world He has not lost a single defeat, and has destroyed several countries, although his meritorious service is not as good as that of the Marshal, but it is not much better than other ministers of Zhenguan."

Among the younger generation, Fang Jun is already recognized as a leader. How many children from aristocratic families who became famous at a young age and have a prominent family background know that they will never be able to catch up with them throughout their lives, which brings countless envy to Fang Jun.But when the elders ridiculed the younger generation for their incompetence and could only sit on the merits of their fathers and wait to die, these young people would unanimously bring Fang Jun out and say: You guys, our generation is not good enough, and you are better than Fang Er's. How much more meritorious service do you have?
In fact, the meritorious deeds of most Zhenguan officials cannot be compared with Fang Jun. The elders taught their children and were educated. Naturally, they became angry and often beat them up...

Naturally, Li Jing was also very upset, and said angrily, "Fang Er? He will fight a fart!"

Going back to the table, grabbed the teacup and drank the warm tea in one gulp, wiped his mouth, seeing Cheng Chubi's dissatisfied face, he became more and more angry: "Don't be dissatisfied, that bastard has no reason to line up Talent? What he is good at is the strategic level. He is able to lead the development of military equipment and develop new weapons from a strategic position. Although he always wins battles, every battle involves muskets, artillery, and thunder. Can it be stopped? There are no subtle tactics at all!"

For someone like him who admires the art of war and strategy, watching Fang Jun fight is simply like chewing peonies, without aesthetic feeling.Those battle cases in history that won more with less and won with a surprise attack are always carefully reviewed in my mind every time I read them, and I can't help but praise the subtleties.

But what about Fang Jun's case?
One word: push hard and it's over!

There is not much technical content at all, it is rough to death...

Cheng Chubi still hung his neck: "It can be said that ten thousand is ten thousand, but he won every time?"

As my best friend, it is absolutely not allowed for someone to slander Fang Jun's achievements, even if this person is his coach...

Li Jing shook his head and said: "Fang Jun can crush the enemy's combat power with the power of firearms. Naturally, it is not as simple as it seems. In fact, it can be called an epoch-making change. During the Shang and Zhou dynasties, chariots raged on the battlefield, and horse-drawn horses The chariot pulled can easily break through the enemy's strict formation, and Zhao Wuling Wang Hufu rides and shoots, making the cavalry shine on the battlefield, until the appearance of firearms that can destroy the world... Every change in the way of war is a change. It is enough to change an era, make the weak become strong, and the strong remain strong. How can this be done simply? Moreover, the research and development and manufacture of firearms, the design and finalization of tactics, contain unfathomable command, In the war history books throughout the ages, there must be Fang Jun's impressive strokes. Of course, even if someone who came later gave him a monument, he would still not know how to fight!"

He is the most particular about the art of war in his life. When he meets Fang Jun, a freak who doesn't know the art of war at all, but who has created and changed the mode of war, he is still invincible. No matter how dissatisfied you are, you have to admit his combat power Its strength is unparalleled in the world, and it cannot be beaten at all.

One can imagine the depression in my heart.

Ending the topic irritably, he waved his hand and said, "Go on, the Li Siwen Department outside the city will immediately enter the city and arrive at the West City area to monitor Zuo Wuwei. If there is any change in him, he will report it immediately, and he must not make any claims. In addition, Qu Tuquan The Ministry bypassed the imperial city and rushed to the front line of Zhuquemen, beware of the right Houwei attacking southward and threatening Taiping, Shanhe and other squares, and the rest of the troops stood still."

"Here!"

Cheng Chubi got the order, and hurriedly turned around and went out to deliver the order, but when he heard that his father was going to be monitored, he felt somewhat uncomfortable.

I don't know what my dad is thinking...

……

In the Hall of Wude, everything has been prepared, and the "big burial" will be held at the auspicious time.

In the side hall, Li Chengqian let the concubine order the servants to wear one piece of Chinese clothes on his body. Although he did not wear the emperor's crown, today's "big burial" is to confirm the identity of the new emperor and determine the status of the monarch and ministers. At that time, he only waited for the official enthronement to become the emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

So with a tense face, I feel uneasy and nervous.

He was registered as the crown prince when he was young, and he has been trained as a prince. He is surrounded by famous ministers and virtuous people, and he is full of flattery and flattery. He never thought that one day he would be deposed by his father.But since the tenth year of Zhenguan, the trend of "abandoned storage" has become more and more intense, making him tremble with fear and making it difficult to sleep at night.

Without being there, no one can imagine how hard it is to live in such a precarious and frightening life.

Whenever he faced the worried eyes of the Crown Princess and the Crown Prince, Li Chengqian felt guilt and fear at the same time. Everyone knew that since ancient times, no one who abolished a prince had a good death. Even his wife, children, and children also ended up miserable. How cowardly and fearful is his wife and children?
He almost went crazy, and even thought of expressing his dissatisfaction with his father in an extreme way of abandoning himself, breaking the can and breaking...

Fortunately, in the most difficult and dark time, I got the support from Fang Jun.

Not only did Fang Jun spare no effort to support him as the prince, but also because of Fang Jun's public support, many people who were floating in their minds, unsteady in their positions, and even waiting to see the direction of the wind were encouraged by him, and began to stand more and more on the side of the East Palace. Give him enough confidence.

It also made the father have to be a lot of scruples when promoting the matter of Yi Chu, so he could only plan it slowly, giving Donggong a chance to breathe.

Along the way, there were winds of swords and swords, difficulties and obstacles, but fortunately there were no dangers.

Sometimes he felt that he was unfilial, and he felt very guilty and blamed himself, because when his father died, he was sad, but he was not without a trace of rejoicing in his heart. It's all support, but it can't beat the stubbornness of the father.

Although as a son of man, I can't hope that my father will die, but it is indeed a blessing that my father is dead...

Taking a deep breath, Li Chengqian straightened his back, with boundless pride and ambition in his heart. The reason why his father wants to depose him is not only because he prefers childish slaves, but also because his father believes that he is too soft and indecisive as a prince. He thought that handing over the empire to him would make the country go from bad to worse, and it would be difficult to continue the prosperity of Zhenguan, which would compromise the great achievements of his father.

But why can't you be an emperor if you have a softer personality?
Qin Shihuang was a staunch and talented man who single-handedly created the Great Qin to sweep the six countries. As a result, he died with strict policies and laws. The general will be hanged to death...

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty surpassed the world in martial arts, chasing the Huns far away and establishing China's immortal achievements. However, he spent his entire life in the army and exhausted the savings of the two generations of Wen and Jing. Glory, generation after generation lingers on, and the people live in dire straits.

To be an emperor, one only needs to know people and be good at tasks, and to be rewarded and punished clearly. Why is it necessary to be magnificent and powerful?
"Your Highness, the clothes have been tidied up, and the outsiders have arrived. Dazong and Duke Yue are inviting you out to preside over the ceremony."

Wang De walked in quickly from the door and bowed to report.

Li Chengqian supported the crown, looked left and right at the concubine, side concubine, Gao Yang, Changle, Jinyang and other relatives, nodded slightly, and said: "Let's go out together, and see the father for the last time."

Crying broke out in the hall immediately, and all the female relatives couldn't bear the grief, crying so much that the pear blossoms were raining, and their hearts were piercing.

Li Chengqian was in a heavy heart, and walked out of the side hall first.

Taking this step, he will soon become the king of the Great Tang Empire. From now on, his destiny is in his hands, and he will no longer be bullied by others, worrying about the precariousness all day long...
