When Wu Qinggao, Tang Chen, Cheng, Cao Wen and others listened to Liu Yong's tactics of going south to the south, several people didn't understand, and they looked at each other one by one, not knowing what kind of tactic this is.

Liu Yong saw Gao Tang and the others looking at each other, so he smiled and said, "That's the case, you all listen to me." ”

"Your Majesty." Several people arched their hands together and said.

Liu Yong took a sip of tea and said lightly: "I thought that the current defense line of the Tarnu Army should be the most tense time. Because they just lost Pingtangzhou. So, at this time, they will tense their nerves. In other words, it is not easy to find loopholes in the Tatar defense line at this time. You say, "Is that true?" ”

Speaking of this, Liu Yong asked again.

Wu Qing, Gao Tang and Chen Cheng both glanced at each other again, and then nodded in agreement with Liu Yong's statement.

Wu Qing also added: "Your Majesty is right, according to the minister's investigation along the way, he has seen no less than ten Tatar spies. Presumably, the whereabouts of the ministers have long been known to the Tatar army. They had just lost Pingtangzhou again, so they naturally had to get nervous. This point is deeply agreed by the minister. ”

Liu Yong listened to Wu Qing's words, nodded, and said, "Okay, since that's the case, that is to say, now is really not a good time to start a full-scale war with the Tarnu army." ”

Wu Qing asked, "Then why does Your Majesty still want to transfer troops?" ”

Liu Yong smiled after hearing this, took another sip of tea, put down the tea bowl, and said with a smile: "I have been personally conscripted, how can I wait?" Moreover, it is possible to wait for an opportunity, but it will also give the Tarnu army a chance to breathe. It will also give the court of the Great Yang Dynasty a chance to breathe. Now the economy of the Great Yang Dynasty is on the verge of collapse. Naturally, I can't make them better. ”

Liu Yong's words made Wu Qing, Gao Tang, Chen Cheng, Cao Wen and others nod their heads in agreement.

At this time, Gao Tang said: "Your Majesty, there has been no caravan on this trade route to the north for half a year. The Tatar armies who had protected the trade routes also withdrew. ”

Liu Yong smiled and said, "This is naturally true." Now that the ten western kingdoms have been freed from the rule of the Tarnus, the Tarnus naturally cannot get any more benefits from the ten kingdoms. It is normal that this trade route is broken. ”

Gao Tang said: "Your Majesty, if it weren't for the blood transfusion of these ten countries to the Great Yang Dynasty, I am afraid that the Great Yang Dynasty would have reached a point where the oil ran out last year." ”

Liu Yong, a local man, said: "Well, it's the annual tribute of the ten western countries, in fact, it's not just the annual tribute, it's simply the looting of the people of the ten western countries." Otherwise, the court of the Great Yang Dynasty would not be able to function because of lack of money. However, don't forget, even if the court of the Great Yang Dynasty has no money, they will not withdraw their troops and surrender because of this. Because they still have the big rear of Mobei. Their cattle and sheep can still support their army. ”

Gao Tang said: "What Your Majesty said is extremely true, this is the tenacity of the Tatars. ”

Liu Yong smiled and said, "Don't worry, we have to fight this battle." ”

Wu Qing said: "Then Your Majesty means to drive out the Tatar slave army?" ”

Liu Yong smiled again and said, "Wu Qing, if you don't kill them, will they give up?" ”

Wu Qing nodded and said, "Yes, what Your Majesty said is true." ”

Liu Yong said again: "We are going to kill this Tatar slave, and it is best to kill them all." That's why I said that this battle had to be fought. Even if the Tarslavs fled back to the desert, I would chase after them. ”

Wu Qing and the others all looked at each other, and they all admired Liu Yong's determination.

Gao Tang said: "Yes, the ministers will definitely follow Your Majesty and exterminate the Tarnus." ”

Liu Yong nodded, smiled, and continued: "So, I think so, since the Tarnu army is nervous, then why not really make them nervous?" Not only did I make them nervous, but I also scared them. Therefore, I am going to use the tactic of going south to the south. You all want to know what the tactics of the great south are to go south, right? ”

Wu Qing took the lead and arched his hand and said, "The ministers have listened to His Majesty's teachings. ”

Liu Yong smiled and said, "Have you ever seen such a scene, that is, when the river rises, some villages along the river will be submerged. ”

Wu Qing and the others all nodded and said, "The ministers have seen it, it is a flood, and the power is very great." ”

Liu Yong said: "That's right, I want to use this kind of power to break the defense line of the Tarnu army." Let this entire line of defense live up to its existence. In order to get a confrontation situation in which the two armies are open. ”

When Wu Qing and the others heard this, they still didn't quite understand what was going on with Liu Yong's tactics of going to the south of the Yangtze River.

Liu Yong saw Wu Qing and Gao Tang with ignorance on their faces, so he smiled and said, "The tactics of going to the south of the Yangtze River are based on Cao Wen's original idea. Cao Wen, tell me what you thought before. ”

Cao Wen stood up, arched his hand and said, "Back to Your Majesty, the last general's previous proposal was to attack the entire line of defense of the Tatar army. Panic the Tatars. Maybe that point will be breached! ”

Liu Yong nodded and said, "Yes, that's the tactic." However, although such an attack seems to be a large scene and comprehensive, it will not be easy to break through if the defense line of the Tarnu army resists desperately. That's the downside of your tactic. ”

Cao Wen nodded and said, "What Your Majesty said is that this is where the minister said that this tactic is immature. There is no guarantee that the general's defensive line will be breached. ”

"That's right. Later, however, you said that you would attack the northern part of the Tarnu line, but the intention of such an attack was too obvious, and the Tarnu army in Middle-earth would definitely support it with all its might. The Tarnu army is now capable of defending itself from north to south. Therefore, I thought that even if I attacked the Tarnu defense point in the north with all my might, I would not necessarily be able to attack it.

And the middle part of the Tarnu army's defensive line, with the support of the two flanks and the rear, is probably even more difficult to attack. Let's talk about Pingtangzhou over there. Now that Pingtangzhou has fallen into our hands, the Tarnu army will take precautions against Pingtangzhou as soon as possible. Now, even if there are more troops attacking north from Pingtangzhou, I'm afraid it will not be easy.

On the whole, it was not easy to break through the defensive line of the Tatar army. And your tactics will probably be useless. Are you right? ”

After listening to Liu Yong's explanation, Wu Qing, Gao Tang, Chen Cheng, Cao Wen and others all nodded.

Wu Qing said: "Your Majesty's analysis is very reasonable. Shame on the ministers! ”

Liu Yong smiled and said, "Don't be presumptuous, some of my analysis is also based on your opinions!" Hehe. ”
