I'm a marquis in Datang

All the people looked solemn.

The atmosphere in the hall was very heavy, many people were watching their hearts, and never spoke.It was precisely this that made the atmosphere even more dignified, as if the Tang Dynasty had reached its final juncture, and the sun was already waning.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Li Shimin said again: "Why, there is no solution?"

"Your Majesty, I have the original play."

At this moment, it was Wei Shuyu who stood up.

Wei Shuyu is also the governor of Mushou's party in the local area, and he returned with Li Shimin before. Although he was not awarded a new official position by Li Shimin, he was deeply trusted and valued by Li Shimin.

Seeing Wei Shuyu stand up, Li Shimin nodded and said, "Wei Qing, what suggestion do you have?"

Wei Shuyu said: "Your Majesty, I suggest moving the capital."

Whoa! !

In the hall, there was an uproar.

When they looked at Wei Shuyu one by one, their eyes were a little shocked, this Wei Shuyu really dared to talk nonsense!There is absolutely no taboo to dare to speak out such things as moving the capital.

Wei Zheng was standing in the front row, but when he looked at Wei Shuyu, there was a look of helplessness in his eyes.If this matter is left to him, he will definitely not mention it.However, Wei Shuyu said it directly.The first person to speak out will most likely offend Li Shimin, so no one speaks out.It's not that no one thought of this, it's that everyone dared not speak out.

Wei Zheng felt that the child was too old to manage.In the past, Wei Shuyu was a gentleman, an honest and honest child, but now, he is extremely strong, even daring to say anything, too courageous to control him at all.

Li Shimin's expression changed suddenly, and he looked at Wei Shuyu sharply, and said in a deep voice, "Wei Shuyu, why did you suggest moving the capital? Don't I want Chang'an?"

Wei Shuyu said: "Your Majesty, Xia's army has already arrived at Qizhou, and is getting closer and closer to Chang'an. Once Xia's army reaches Chang'an, even if Chang'an's city is strong, can it resist Du Qi? Obviously it is impossible

of.Not only because Xia Guo's army is strong, but also because we lack troops and people's hearts are fluctuating.At this time, the only way is to move the capital and leave Chang'an to fight for a chance. "

Li Shimin said: "In the city of Chang'an, we have enough food and equipment. Even the garrison in Chang'an today, because we have strength before, we have nearly 3 people. With more than [-] troops, with the help of A strong city, and then order the kings from all over the world. Once a steady stream of troops gathers in Chang'an, and Du Qi travels long distances, it may not be able to break Chang'an."

In Li Shimin's heart, he was unwilling to move the capital, because once the capital was moved away, it would be tantamount to abandoning the imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty would no longer be complete.

So Li Shimin directly refuted.

Wei Shuyu looked solemn, and continued: "Your Majesty also said just now that Du Qi may not be able to break Chang'an. So in His Majesty's heart, in fact

It is also believed that Du Qi's army is coming, and it is very likely to break Chang'an. "

Li Shimin said: "Du Qi's army is powerful after all, and even though I am defending Chang'an, I don't necessarily say that guarding Chang'an is really Chang'an forever, not that Chang'an may fall. If we can hold Chang'an with [-]% certainty, There is no need to discuss it. Naturally, there are certain risks, so we guard Chang'an."

Wei Shuyu said: "Your Majesty is wise."

Li Shimin continued: "Then what else do you have to say now?"

Wei Shuyu said: "Your Majesty, in fact, at present, Chang'an is still unable to be defended. Just now I said what Your Majesty mentioned, that the Xia army may not be able to defend Chang'an. Other rhetoric."

Li Shimin said in a deep voice, "But it's okay to say."

If you want to talk about the guarding of Chang'an, it is natural to say the clearer the better.

Once there are flaws, many things will be difficult to deal with.When Du Qi's army has already approached the city, the situation will not be good if the battle is started at that time.

Wei Shuyu opened the mouth and said: "First, Xia Guo's army did not go to Chang'an without roots, nor did it go deep into the hinterland, and it was not a long-distance journey. Because Du Qi went all the way to Chang'an, and all the places along the way have already surrendered. Even Du Qi has won over the people and won the support of the aristocratic family, and the official roads in various places are connected, so he can travel without being affected by the weather."

"Du Qi's food, equipment and weapons can be continuously transported from the rear. Therefore, even if Du Qi's army stays outside Chang'an for a long time, it will have no effect. Therefore, I believe that once Du Qi's army takes root in Chang'an, it will be a It is like a giant pillar of the sky, nailed to the outside of Chang'an City, even if Du Qi does not attack, it will be a great threat to Chang'an."

Wei Shuyu gave the first point of analysis.

Li Shimin narrowed his eyes, thought for a while, and came to a conclusion.He is aware of the situation, and he also knows that Du Qi is sweeping all over the place, and he is very steady.

Fighting, and with the support of aristocratic families, and Du Qiben was a person who went out of Datang, so the people are very supportive.

Especially when Du Qi marched, the military discipline was always strict, the soldiers never disturbed the people, and gave the people many preferential treatment, so the people supported Du Qi, without any future troubles, so food, equipment, etc. were continuously delivered, and Du Qi could attack steadily.

Li Shimin said in a deep voice, "What about the second reason?"

Wei Shuyu said: "Secondly, the hearts of the people in the city are fluctuating. Now in Chang'an City, whether it is the common people or the officials, they will compete in private to talk about Xia Guo's attack. When we were in Longzhou and Qizhou before, there were Many officials passed letters to Du Qi in private, secretly submitting to Du Qi."

After a pause, Wei Shuyu continued: "Based on this, in fact, in Chang'an City, many officials are also divided and have begun to find a way out for themselves. So at the moment, people in the city must be fluctuating. In the whole city

When the army has lost their fighting spirit and the whole team has lost their fighting spirit, it is really too difficult to stop Du Qi's army. "

Li Shimin's heart sank little by little, and his expression was extremely serious.Wei Shuyu's words hit the point, the most critical point right now is not how powerful Du Qi is, but that the fighting spirit of his own army has collapsed.Under this premise, it is quite difficult to completely block Du Qi's army.

Li Shimin took a deep breath to adjust his emotions, and said again: "If you have any questions, feel free to say them all. Right now, we need to discuss the issues thoroughly so that we can make arrangements."

Chapter 1222 Disputes

dispute

Wei Shuyu continued: "Your Majesty, the third reason for my minister is Du Qi's weapons. Even though Chang'an City is strong, the problem is that Du Qi's weapons are extremely powerful. Although bombarding Chang'an City will not blow up the city, it can at least suppress it." The power on the towers. I said the simplest way, on the towers of Chang'an City, within ten feet, the weapons can prevent bombing."

Li Shimin said: "Yes!"

After a pause, Li Shimin continued: "Even, Du Qi's weapon can strike more accurately. Based on the experience of several confrontations between Du Qi and Du Qi, perhaps the accuracy within ten steps can be grasped."

Wei Shuyu said: "Your Majesty, join the two sides of the Shizhang area, and Du Qi will attack with artillery fire at the same time, blocking our people from rushing to help. And Du Qi's people, who specialize in this area, can they capture this area within an hour? ?”

Li Shimin said: "Theoretically speaking, it shouldn't be a big problem. Of course, it's not necessarily true. Because under the bombardment, our people can still rush to help the past. There are always areas that the artillery bombardment can't reach. Let's take this area in an hour. , it’s actually not easy.”

Wei Shuyu said in a deep voice: "What if Du Qi divides this area into several sections when attacking with artillery fire, and then keeps attacking? At that time, everywhere will be bombed, and it will not be easy to rush to rescue in time."

Li Shimin sighed when he heard it.

As Wei Shuyu said, once Du Qizhen wants to attack, maybe Li Shimin can hold it for a day or two.But after a long time, Li Shimin might not be able to defend according to Wei Shuyu's method of attacking.

Furthermore, even if Wei Shuyu's method is not followed, it is actually not that difficult for Du Qi to break the defense of Chang'an City. In short, Chang'an, an isolated city, can block Du Qi's soldiers in a short time. It is unstoppable.

Li Shimin said: "Is there any reason?"

"Have!"

Wei Shuyu nodded and answered.

Li Shimin said: "Continue talking."

Wei Shuyu said again: "Fourth, today's Chang'an City has been operated by Du Qi as early as Du Qi's time. Even before that, our Tang Dynasty won too many merchants from the Xia Kingdom, which hit Xia Guo in Chang'an. Even so, Du Qi's power in Chang'an City cannot be underestimated."

"Once Du Qi attacks, this force will definitely explode. And this force, which exists in the dark, is likely to affect the situation in Chang'an. As I said earlier, there must be many people in Chang'an City , I may have contacted Du Qi in private."

Wei Shuyu said: "Once Du Qi's power detonates our internal response in Chang'an, it must be extremely dangerous. So this point, see

It seems unimportant, but in fact it can explode with great influence. "

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Where is the fifth?"
