Chapter 582: Soldiers Don't Get Tired of Deceit

Outside the tent, the wind howled, and the snow fell.

The inside of the tent was also extremely cold, even if it was about to be hugged on the charcoal basin, it was only that the front body was not cold, and the place behind it was still cold.

Xia Hongsheng took a sip and unfolded a rolled paper from his hand.

There are some combinations of numbers and pinyin letters written on it, which are as difficult for ordinary people to understand as ghost drawings, but Xia Hongsheng knows how to read him.

It took some effort for Xia Hongsheng to know the information displayed on that piece of paper.

Walking out of the tent and looking up at the sky, the goose-feathered snow was falling from the sky in clusters, and it was still gloomy as dark as night in the distance, and the snow seemed to have no intention of stopping.

In the Chinese military tent, Li Jing and Li Tao were looking at the map together, and when they saw Xia Hongsheng entering, they withdrew their eyes from the map, sat down next to the charcoal basin, and beckoned Xia Hongsheng to come over.

Xia Hongsheng went over and sat down and said, "There's news from the Turks. Jieli took advantage of the snow to retreat to Tun Tieshan, collected the remnants, and now has gathered tens of thousands of people. However, from Jieli to the soldiers, there is no fighting spirit. Jieli was terrified, and he felt that he was not our opponent, so he sent Zhiqi Sili as a Turkic envoy, preparing to let Zhiqi Sili go to Chang'an to apologize to His Majesty and ask for surrender, and attach to the country. ”

"Oh? Sure enough, he was said by his nephew? Li Jing looked at Xia Hongsheng with some surprise.

Xia Hongsheng shook his head with a smile and replied, "This credit is not mine, it is the credit of the spy we planted next to Jieli, and his contribution is too great." ”

"Is this news likely to be believed?" Li Tao asked beside him.

"I can be sure." Xia Hongsheng nodded and said.

"In this case, this news should be reported to Your Majesty as soon as possible, so that Your Majesty can make a decision as soon as possible." Li Tao said, but Li Jing brushed his beard and made no sound.

Xia Hongsheng came through and naturally knew this history. Historically, it was the emperor who accepted Jieli's surrender. sent Tang Jian and another person to Tieshan to appease Jieli. However, Li Jing thought that Jieli's surrender was just a delaying tactic, and once he was not completely eliminated this time and let him retreat to Mobei, he would definitely wait until the grass was strong and the horses were fat, waiting for the opportunity to make a comeback. So Li Jing and Li Tao, the two old yin people, got together and summed it up. If the Turks can be completely wiped out, then what is it to sacrifice one Tang Jian, so he simply ignored the fact that Tang Jian and the others were still in the Turkic camp, and decided that Jieli would definitely think that the Tang army would not attack the Turks again, so he relaxed his vigilance. So Li Jing decided to sacrifice Tang Jian and others, and took the opportunity to attack Yinshan at night, break the Turks, and completely defeat the Turkic army. made Jieli flee alone, captured by Li Daozong's army, and ****** perished.

"The little nephew wants to ask, what do the two uncles think of Jieli's approach?" Xia Hongsheng looked at Li Jing and Li Tao and asked the two.

Hearing Xia Hongsheng ask, the two glanced at each other, and Li Tao smiled: "Listening to what the virtuous nephew said, it seems that he has objections to Jieli's confession and surrender?" ”

Xia Hongsheng smiled. said: "If Jieli can believe it, why do we need to be here today? ”

Li Jing looked at Xia Hongsheng's eyes. Suddenly, he smiled and said, "That virtuous nephew means ......"

Xia Hongsheng knew that Li Jing had already seen his intentions, so he smiled and said: "The little nephew thinks that Jieli is defeated like a mountain at this time, so he sent Zhi Zhi Sili as a special envoy to Chang'an to apologize to His Majesty and ask for surrender. is willing to join the country, this is not sincere, but because he feels that he can't beat us now, which is actually a delaying tactic. In fact, Jieli's attempt must have been to avoid this catastrophe by apologizing and surrendering. Then when the grass is green and the horses are fat, they will move to Mobei, waiting for the opportunity to avoid the Tang Dynasty, and the dead silence will rise again. Although Jieli is defeated now, there are still many troops. If they are allowed to flee to Mobei and attach themselves to Xue Yantuo and other departments, it will be difficult to pursue them. The little nephew thought that His Majesty could send a few people as envoys to the Turkic camp to appease Jieli. The envoys of the Tang Dynasty were in the Turkic camp, and Jieli must have been unprepared. At this time, if we choose to attack it, we can capture it without a fight! ”

Li Jing and Li Tao glanced at each other, and they both saw a look of surprise in each other's eyes, then looked at each other and smiled, turned their heads to look at Xia Hongsheng, and only heard Li Tao say: "The virtuous nephew is thoughtful, and he can be the commander!" ”

"Although Jieli is now defeated, there are still tens of thousands of people, if the dog jumps over the wall in a hurry, the fish dies and the net is broken, and fights to the death, although our army will not be defeated, but there will be a lot of casualties." Li Jing brushed his beard and said: "Now Jieli is implementing a plan to delay the army, and send envoys to apologize and surrender. The so-called soldiers are not tired of deceit, and we can also plan and attack them when Jieli sees the envoys of the Tang Dynasty and is defenseless, then they will be taken by surprise and attacked unprepared, and the Turks will definitely be defeated. ”

knew that Li Jing would definitely agree, because in history, this was the attention of Li Jing and Li Tao. So before he came, Xia Hongsheng had already written this idea in ciphertext.

Li Jing immediately summoned his own soldiers, tied the letter to the carrier pigeon, and quickly flew it to Chang'an to pass it back.

Li Jing and Li Tao's army was not far from Tieshan, and after the stubborn thinking power was discovered, Tang Jun also pretended not to find it and let the stubborn thinking power go.

No matter how fast you are obsessed with thinking power, you can't get as fast as the Tang Army's military pigeons. After several years of training, Datang's military pigeons are no longer afraid of the shouting and killing of the battlefield. The eagle dives twice as fast as the pigeon, but the pigeon flies upwards faster than the eagle, and the level flight speed is the same as that of the eagle. Therefore, the instructors of the military pigeon team use training pigeons to fly flat and upwards to get rid of the eagles. The speed can reach several kilometers per minute. Therefore, when he arrives in Chang'an, I am afraid that Li Shimin will have prepared all the envoys to appease Jieli.

Xia Hongsheng walked out of the Chinese military tent, and Su Dingfang followed.

"Brother!" Su Dingfang was familiar with Xia Hongsheng, and he didn't have the previous restraints, so he stopped Xia Hongsheng, hooked Xia Hongsheng's shoulder, and asked: "Brother, how did you come up with this, teach your brother too, so that you can teach your brother to learn and learn!" ”

Xia Hongsheng scratched his head, and it can't be said that this is how it came in history. So he had no choice but to say: "This, this is called tactical strategy, and they are all courses taught in military schools." The Grand Governor is a sacrificial wine at the military academy, and famous generals of the DPRK and China, such as General Pingsu Lee, will also give lectures in the military academy, and even His Majesty will sometimes go to the military academy to teach a few lessons in person. These are all learned from our famous generals in Datang. ”

"What?!" Su Dingfang's eyes widened, his mouth grew up, and he was surprised: "The military academy still has such benefits?!" ”

Xia Hongsheng nodded.

saw Su Dingfang's eyes roll a few times, and suddenly smiled at Xia Hongsheng very flatteringly.

Xia Hongsheng was immediately alert when he saw this smile, and jumped away to glare at Su Dingfang: "The smile is so penetrating!" What are you doing? ”

Su Dingfang leaned over with a salivating face, and whispered: "What, after listening to Brother Fang Cai's words, brother, I am extremely fascinated by the military school!" What, since my brother is a military academy, can you find a way to let my brother and me listen to the art of war of His Majesty and the generals of our court? (To be continued.) )
