Looking at the calm Xue Shou in front of him, Li Shimin was not as shocked or doubtful as the others.
He just looked at the advisor he relied on most quietly and asked, "What's the explanation?"
Xue Shou also looked at Li Shimin, and after a while he said in a deep voice: "Do you want the Jin Ou to be intact, or do you want the Three Kingdoms to quarrel?"
"Naturally, the world is unified, and there is no shortage of gold!" Li Shimin answered quickly. What he wanted was a complete world, not a world shared with others.
Xue Shou nodded and asked, "Then why do you want to back down this time?"
Li Shimin hesitated and said: "The enemy is strong and we are weak!"
Xue Shou pressed forward and asked: "Why is the enemy strong? Why is we weak?"
This time, Li Shimin was silent.
Only then did he realize that he had been trapped in a strange number cycle all along!
All this time, he had been thinking about the 300,000 people on the other side, but he had never thought about how strong the enemy was. And where is my weakness?
Is it true that the difference between strength and weakness depends solely on the number of people?
That's done, there will be no need to fight in the future, just bring out the people from each family and count them like sheep!
Think about the Battle of Julu, the Battle of Feishui, the Battle of Guandu, and the Battle of Chibi recorded in history books.
Which one doesn't win more with less? Which one is not about the weak defeating the strong? Why is it that when you get to your place, it doesn’t work?
What's the point of fighting? It’s nothing more than the right time, the right location, and the right people!
On people and people.
Now he has powerful generals like clouds and soldiers like rain!
The military advisors include Xue Shou, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling and other wise men in the world!
Logistics includes Chai Shao and Xiao Han!
The doctor is Sun Simiao, the Chinese miracle doctor!
Regarding geographical advantages.
He occupied all the dangerous and important places south of the Yellow River and had countless food supplies. Sishui Pass and Tongguan were all stuck on Dou Jiande's path!
On the weather.
Wang Shichong had lost all confidence after being beaten, so he had no choice but to survive! Although Dou Jiande is at the forefront of his army, he will have to work hard after traveling a long distance, but he can wait for the hard work and enjoy the results!
"With such a favorable time and place, what's the problem with 300,000 people?!"
The more Li Shimin thought about it, the brighter his eyes became. In the end, a pair of eyes seemed to have the slightest edge! The pride in my heart soared straight into the sky!
Trying to control his excitement, Li Shimin stared at Xue Shou and asked, "Where should we start!"
"Phew, finally there is nothing wrong!"
Hearing Xiao Lizi ask this question, Xiao Han's heart that was hanging in mid-air finally relaxed!
To be honest, he was really afraid that Xue Shou could not stop Li Shimin!
But since these words appeared, he understood that Li Shimin had completely given up on retreating!
Xue Shou also knew Li Shimin's nature, and saw a smile on his face when he saw that he had made up his mind.
However, he did not directly answer Li Shimin's words. Instead, he turned sideways and made way for Fang Xuanling.
"Ahem..." Seeing that Xue Shou wanted him to explain, Fang Xuanling couldn't help coughing lightly and stood up and said:
"To be fair, Brother Du and Brother Xue and I have collected information about Hebei and Shandong before.
Later, when we were sorting out these things, we discovered that Shandong and Hebei have frequently encountered droughts and locust plagues in the past two years. Therefore, their food production has been severely reduced!
This time Dou Jiande was able to gather enough food and fodder for an army of 200,000 people, which exceeded our expectations. "
Hearing this, Li Shimin frowned and asked, "You mean, no food?" "
"Yes, it means no food!"
Du Ruhui said with a smile: "The two hundred thousand troops spend countless amounts of money on daily needs! If we can cut off their food routes and burn the food, their military morale will be in chaos! If they want to raise more food, they must not have two consecutive harvests. What the young Dou Jiande can do!"
"But how can we cut off their food supply?" Among the generals, no one knew who asked this crucial question.
"Rely on the natural danger of the Yellow River! It can be used to stop Dou Jiande from going south, and it can also stop Dou Jiande from going north!" Xue Shou replied in a deep voice.
When Li Shimin heard this, his eyes lit up again, he turned around quickly, pointed at a point on the map and said, "You mean, we'll stay here?"
When Xue Shou, Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling saw this, they all smiled: "This is it, Hulao Pass!"
"Okay! I'm afraid the three of you have already made a plan and made me worry for so long!" Li Shimin was overjoyed, but he didn't forget to complain about the three of them.
In the past few days, he had been tossing and turning for Dou Jiande's army, unable to sleep day and night. I never thought that these people had already calculated all the causes and consequences.
Fang Xuanling stroked his beard and said with a smile: "This is a serious matter. We have been reviewing countless documents and materials for several days before we discovered Dou Jiande's shortcoming of insufficient food! However, King Qin, you can find the key to this in one go, which is also amazing!"
"Each other, each other, hahaha..."
The people who were worried at the moment laughed together. Liu Hongji, Duan Zhixuan and others were confused and laughed together.
Only Cheng Yaojin quietly pulled Xiao Han and asked: "What do they mean by this? Why is it so mysterious?"
Xiao Han, who was craning his neck to watch the excitement, was shaken by Cheng Yaojin. He couldn't help but roll his eyes at him: "Hey, uneducated, how terrible! Can't you see? They are planning to abandon the natural danger of the Yellow River and wait for Dou Jiande to cross the river. Stop them at Hulao Pass!"
Cheng Yaojin stared with big eyes and said angrily: "I know this! What I want to ask is, what does this have to do with food shortage?"
Xiao Han looked at Cheng Yaojin as if he hated iron, shook his head frequently and said: "Idiot, even I have thought of it, but you haven't thought of it yet?
Dou Jiande and others have crossed the Yellow River, but the subsequent supply battalions will still have to continuously transport food to their army, right? When the time comes, we send out a surprise soldier, move to the grain road across the Yellow River, and set fire to the grain. Do you think Dou Jiande will be pissed to death? "
"Holy crap, there's no trick more poisonous than starvation, and no trick more ruthless than arson, they want to take advantage of both!"
After listening to Xiao Han's explanation, Cheng Yaojin suddenly became enlightened and kept making strange screams: "It's the scholars who are ruthless after all. I, old Cheng, slashed so many people with a knife, but these scholars couldn't come up with it after reading the books." The method is vicious!"
Xue Shou glared at Cheng Yaojin angrily, and took Xiao Han with him by the way. Xiao Han was so angry that he really wanted to jump up and cover Cheng Yaojin's big mouth!
Withdrawing his gaze, Xue Shou suddenly changed his happy expression, and said to Li Shimin with concern: "King Qin, these are all planned by us. It is difficult to predict the reality, and there is another problem here!"
"Oh? What's the problem?" Li Shimin also smiled and asked.
Xue Shou stretched out his finger and pointed at Luoyang: "I have calculated that to resist the 200,000 Xia army at Hulao Pass, we need at least 50,000 troops! In other words, there are only less than 50,000 left here. Someone comes to contain Wang Shichong!
If Wang Shichong breaks through here and marches into Hulao Pass, we will be truly attacked from both sides and fall short! "
(In history, in Luoyang, the Battle of Hulao lasted much longer, lasting two years! At the same time, it was also much more tragic.
Several of them have various schemes frequently and use them in every possible way. The level of excitement is simply beyond imagination!
Coca-Cola has no choice but to show the whole process, so it can only briefly touch on it. I am really ashamed, ashamed...)
