Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Pang Zixian imitated Pang Xiaotai's voice and said: "In the sixth year of Wude, my minister was confused for a while and rebelled against Tang. After the defeat, it was fortunate that His Majesty interceded and saved his life. Now, the old minister will return this life to you! Take care, Your Majesty, and the old minister will go!"

"Ah..." His Majesty Li Er felt a pain in his heart after hearing this, and shouted, "Old General... You don't deserve to die... You don't deserve to die!"

But Pang Zixian said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to grieve. It is a good thing for a good man to die in battle! It is a joy to die in the affairs of a king! It is a great thing to expand the territory of China! Three things are combined into one thing, and the old general dies without regret. "

"Having said that, but..."

"There is no but, what the last general said is right! If you don't believe me, look..."

While talking, he did not know where he took out a dagger, stabbed it at his heart, and said: "The last general does not want the old general to focus on the front, so follow him underground! Uncle, here I come ! Our men in Baizhou, there are no cowards!"

bang~

Pang Zixian's body fell to the ground.

"Tong kill me!" His Majesty Li Er only felt a blur in front of his eyes, so he didn't pass out. He gritted his teeth and said, "I will never retreat until the city of Liaodong is destroyed! Is there any dear one who can share my worries?"

Chapter 1940

"Is there any lover who can share my worries?"

"..."

"Is there any lover who can share my worries?"

"..."

"Is there any lover who can share my worries?"

"..."

His Majesty Li Er asked three times, but no one answered.If everyone was confident in breaking Liaodong City before, then now, most people are a little desperate.

It is indeed a city that Emperor Sui Yang's million troops could not attack, it is really hard to chew!It can even be said that by now, everyone is desperate.

Tall building cars, powerful gunpowder, which one is not a magic weapon to break the city?

Zhang Shigui, the Duke of Guo, and Pang Xiaotai, the General of Zuo Xiaowei, who is not a brave general?

Six hundred Xuanjia soldiers, five hundred Baizhou disciples, isn't that the elite of the Tang army?

With so many favorable conditions combined, not only did Liaodong City not be destroyed, but two generals were also lost.

How can this be done?

If it is another city, you can still use two stupid methods to break the city.First, fill it with human life, and ants attach themselves to the city.Second, long-term siege until the food in the city is exhausted.

But these two methods cannot be used in Liaodong City at all.

It is absolutely impossible for the Khitan and Xi people to make great contributions to the Tang army, and it is only the [-] Tang army who can really be used.

And how many defenders are there in the city?One hundred thousand!

If you really risk your life, Tang Jun can't take advantage of it.

As for waiting for the food in the city to run out, it is even more unreliable.In terms of time, it's not that the Goguryeo people can't consume the Tang people, but the Tang people can't consume the Goguryeo people,

After three or four months, the weather will be cold, and the Tang army will have to retreat.However, the food in Liaodong City was enough for the first half of the year.

Seeing that everyone was silent, His Majesty Li Er couldn't help but said, "King Jiang Xia, are you willing to share my worries? From now on, can I give you a month?"

"This... this..."

"What? No?"

"It's not impossible, but one month is too short. How about three months?"

"You can break Liaodong City for me in three months? How sure are you?"

"The number is five or five."

"A number of five or five?" His Majesty Li Er frowned slightly, and said, "But I don't know what method King Jiang Xia intends to use to destroy the city?"

"Although there are many defenders in Liaodong City, they have been frightened by our army's field combat capabilities. They only dare to defend to the death and dare not fight back. In my opinion, it is better to leave [-] troops to monitor the defenders in the city. Your Majesty led the main force to surround the city. Pass Liaodong City."

"Detour?"

"Yes, after taking a detour, Your Majesty pulled down Anshi, Wugu, Jian'an and other cities, crossed the Yalu River, went straight to Pyongyang, and captured Yuan Nanjian alive. Once Pyongyang was destroyed, Goguryeo was considered to be a country. Liaodong City has no loyal master, so naturally You can surrender without a fight!"

"Your Majesty, no!" Before His Majesty Li Er could reply, Fu Yuzhang hurriedly stopped him.

"Huh? Why not? I think King Jiang Xia's plan makes sense."

"This... this... King Jiang Xia's suggestion is indeed reasonable, but...but..."

"how?"

Fu Yuzhang changed his mind, and said, "Uh... this strategy can be used by others, but not by Your Majesty."

"Why is that?"

"Think about it, you are the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the co-lord of the world. How can you take risks so easily? Although Sun Daiyin said that he dare not go out of the city, but the soldiers are not tired of cheating. Who can say for sure? What if he is in your After the main force has retreated, what should we do if we go out of the city to meet the battle?"

"This……"

"There is an army of [-] in Liaodong City. Although your Tang army is elite, you may not be able to win with one against five, right? Once you fail, your Majesty's retreat will be cut off. Do you want to be surrounded again?"

British Duke Li Ji said: "The King Daifang's words are justified. The emperor's personal conquest should be based on stability. Your Majesty should not take risks lightly."

Regarding this plan, Li Daozong was actually not sure about it. Seeing that the British Duke had spoken out against it, he said, "It's because Xiao Wang didn't think carefully."

His Majesty Li Er said: "Besides this plan, is there any other way for King Jiangxia to destroy Liaodong City?"

"This..." Li Daozong shook his head and said, "Chen Rong think about it again."

Fu Yuzhang said: "Xiao Wang has something to say, I don't know whether to say it or not."

"The prince of Daifang, please speak."

"From Xiao Wang's point of view, I'm afraid this Liaodong City will not be taken down. It's God's will, so we can't force it."

Zhang Liang said angrily: "What the hell are you talking about God's will! The two armies are fighting, relying on the life of the soldiers, the strength of the armor, and the illusory will of God."

"That's not the case. Duke Xun, please think, if it wasn't for God's will, why wouldn't King Jiangxia's building chariot be successful? If it wasn't for God's will, with the help of gunpowder, why would General Pang Xiaotai be defeated and die?"

"That's all because Sun Daiyin is too cautious!"

"It seems so on the surface, but God's actions must be done by others. Sun Daiyin is so overly cautious, how do you know if it is not inspired by heaven?"
