Datang: Angry at Li Er, he still begged me to come out of the mountain

Chapter 4
"You mean, when formulating a battle plan, don't just think about head-to-head, but add some tactics so that our army can win with the least number of casualties?"

"Yes, only the reckless will choose to fight head-on, while the wise will try their best to obtain the greatest benefit at the least cost."

"You see that the Turks are now in Shuofang and Xiangcheng. As long as these two places are captured, the Turks will naturally flee, and the Tang soldiers will always pursue them."

"At that time, this Jieli Khan will definitely retreat to Mobei. As long as the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty chase towards Mobei, they will definitely suffer heavy losses due to environmental problems."

20 people is indeed a lot, but there are not many people who are really capable.

Historically, in the expedition against the Turks, only four men, Li Jing, Cheng Zhijie, Su Dingfang and Niu Jinda, had military exploits.

"As long as you fight, you will die, but you must also avoid unnecessary sacrifices."

Tang Taizong and Li Junxian looked at each other, and said after thinking for a while.

"My son-in-law, if you were asked to make a plan, what would you do?"

"Father-in-law, what's the use of me talking so much here? Can His Majesty hear it?"

Forehead!
"Well, the master knows some high-ranking officials, and maybe it can be passed on to the ears of the Holy One."

Li Junxian quickly helped to smooth things over.

"If father-in-law wants to hear, I'll say more, but I don't know if there's anything wrong with it. If you cause any trouble, don't confess me."

Tang Taizong was a little speechless, so hurry up if you want to say something.

"It's not hard to fight."

"You see, after the defeat of the Turks, if they wanted to retreat, they had to go through Qikou first, and then they could retreat to the Yinshan and Hunhe rivers. In the end, they only had to sneak into Mobei."

"And Qikou, the only way to pass, is very important at this time. If we chase the Turks all the way, Qikou will be used by the Turks. At that time, it will not be easy to take down such a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. .”

"However, since the Turks did not garrison troops at Qikou, we can send troops around to Qikou to attack front and back."

"I think Cheng Zhijie should be sent to lead the troops here."

"As the saying goes, to capture the thief first, capture the king. When the time comes, send a fierce general to lead troops to ambush here. When the Turks retreat, keep an eye on the commander's tent and rush over to capture him alive."

"If this war ends with the complete annihilation of the Turks, the surrounding countries will have to weigh it even if they want to start a war with us."

Jiang Yunqing's schemes are all aimed at destroying the country, and they are indeed ruthless.

It's not that the ancients couldn't think of these methods, but when fighting, the ancients would often leave a vitality behind, and they wouldn't leave no vitality at all.

Tang Taizong was very satisfied with this, as long as Jiang Yunqing's plan was perfected, casualties could be reduced to a certain extent.

"My son-in-law, it's a good plan. Let's stop here today! You can ask someone to fill me with a dozen catties of tea, and pack a few more jars of wine to take away."

Jiang Yunqing: "...!"

Seeing this, Li Huan'er quickly relieved her embarrassment.

"Father, the tea leaves are only three catties a year, and there are only five jars of wine left in the mansion. Why don't you get a catty of tea leaves and three jars of wine?"

Tang Taizong nodded in satisfaction.

This is better for my daughter!

"My son-in-law, I'm going back today. After a few days, I'll come to your estate with your mother-in-law to wander around."

"Okay, my father-in-law."

After leaving Jiang Mansion, Tang Taizong asked Li Junxian.

"Jun Xian, what do you think of Jiang Yunqing?"

"Your Majesty, I believe that Jiang Yunqing will become a great person in the future."

"I don't know if he will be a master or not, but this Jiang Yunqing is still too young, obviously lacking in experience and experience."

"Your Majesty said yes."

"In the future, you will escort a cart of copper coins to Jiangfu for me."

"Wei Chen obeys."

………………

In the past few days, Jiang Yunqing's story of turning into a seller and wanting to stockpile food has long been rumored around here.

Regarding Jiang Yunqing's actions, everyone agreed that his brain was flooded.

But there are also a very small number of smart people who secretly stored a small amount of food.

As for Tang Taizong, after returning to the palace, Li Junxian asked Jiang Yunqing to send three thousand copper coins non-stop.

This is Tang Taizong's entire net worth. From this point of view, it is enough to show Tang Taizong's approval of Jiang Yunqing.

At this moment, Jiang Yunqing sold off all items that could be exchanged for money in the Jiang residence.

Now, in this huge Jiang Mansion, not even a decent piece of furniture can be found.

Who among the outsiders doesn't say that Jiang Yunqing is a prodigal?

When the grain merchant heard about Jiang Yunqing's storage of grain, everyone was laughing!
In a few days, it will be the autumn harvest, and it won't be long before the price of grain will drop. At this time, Jiang Yunqing, who is taking advantage of it, is naturally scrambling to sell it to the Jiang family before the price of grain falls.

Outside the gate of Jiangfu, Jiang Yi was busy counting the numbers.

"Steward Jiang, I don't know if the Jiang Mansion still buys grain, but my village has a lot of grain, and the price is negotiable."

"Jiang Steward, I also have some food in my family. I wonder if Jiang's house can take it?"

"As much food as everyone has, the Jiang family will accept as much. Please pull the food and line up."

Seeing the strings of copper coins being handed out, Jiang Yi couldn't tell what it was like.

In less than three days, the granary was full.

"Husband, it doesn't look like there will be a flood disaster this day."

Li Huan'er was a little confused. She didn't know whether to pray for rain or to prevent it from raining.On this side is the father's plan to conquer the Turks, while on the other side is the husband who sold off his property.

How should she choose?
Looking at the sun hanging high in the sky, Jiang Yunqing felt a little panicked.

Apart from the bedroom and kitchen, the Jiang mansion was full of food.

In recent days, Tang Taizong and Wei Guogong Li Jing met frequently.

He also summoned Cheng Zhijie and Wei Xiaojie, the governor of Youzhou, who inspected the school, to enter the palace to meet the saint.

"Cheng Zhijie, you can't act with Wei Xiaojie this time."

"Why! Why don't you let my old Cheng go."

As soon as he refused to let go, Cheng Zhi shouted angrily, as if you don't give me a reason, don't want me to be obedient.

He was the one who simply said this. If it was someone else, Tang Taizong would have shut up the other party long ago. Damn it, you forgot that I am the emperor.

"Zhijie, please be safe and don't be impatient, I haven't finished talking yet."

Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty waved his hand to signal Cheng Zhijie to be quiet, and then he arrived.

"Your mission, Zhijie, is to lead elite troops to guard Qikou Pass."

"No, I'm going to Heng'an Road to kill the enemy."

"Know the festival, obey the arrangement."

Li Jing on the side, before Tang Taizong got angry, yelled loudly.

Why can't my old Cheng rush to the front and go into battle to kill the enemy.

Cheng Zhijie, who stopped talking, felt extremely dissatisfied.

After calming down the anger in his heart, Tang Taizong looked at the seemingly subdued Cheng Zhijie, feeling a little helpless.
