Chapter 1292 Southern Strategy

"General, they are quite capable."

Seeing the flames in the city soaring into the sky, Chang Sun Ze's deputy also nodded. He was a rabble himself. He thought he would be able to create some commotion near the city gate after entering. This was already overwhelming. Unexpectedly, he actually killed Wang Cheng, and The other armies in the city were disbanded on the spot.

"After all, he is a great general of a country. He once led many generals. Now he has rebelled. If some of his former students come to encircle and suppress him, he may not be able to succeed. He should have more sympathy. After all, his family members Being killed by the imperial court was not a deterrent to other generals, but rather alienated from the imperial court."

Changsun Ze sees things very accurately, but King Piao cannot understand this matter. He always thinks that if he kills more people, others will be afraid of him. Killing is indeed a means of deterrence, but you have to see Who should kill at what time? If he kills randomly, there will be no deterrent at all, and he may even be forced into a corner, like the current King of Piao.

"Then we continue to watch like this?"

The people under my command are also itching to see it and want to join the battle group immediately. However, the Tang army is highly disciplined. If you join the battle group without the approval of your superiors, even if you have made meritorious service, you will not be able to do it after you return. Eat some good fruit.

"We don't need to show off. Didn't we already participate in the war just now? This contribution is indispensable to us, and the power in the hands of this general cannot be too strong. We can only help in a timely manner, and we must not fight with him. If they fight together, if his strength is too strong, will he still be a dog for us in the future?"

Changsun Ze rolled his eyes. Whether in Sichuan or Nanzhao, this guy has learned a lot. Although the Tang Dynasty needs to rely on some outsiders to control the entire power system, the power in the hands of these outsiders cannot be too strong. .

Take the current city of King Piao as an example. It is fully equipped with twenty to thirty thousand troops. These people are either on the side of the general or on the side of the king of Piao. If the army in the hands of the general is too large, If there are more, it will be a trouble for him to wait for us to come over. It is better to let him fight to the death with the king of Piao Kingdom, just like the situation in Nanzhao Kingdom. Without the two kings and brothers fighting to the death, how can we take over Nanzhao peacefully? ?

The people under my command also nodded. Although they also wanted to have fun on the battlefield, they were all well-aware and knew what they were doing here. Of course, the interests of the Tang Dynasty were the most important, not to mention our general. ? We have already participated in the war just now. No matter what the outcome of this battle is, our contribution has already been written down.

"Send a few people into the city to contact us for information. The personnel will give them certain help to understand the current situation in the city. In addition, we will establish a communication channel for information inside and outside the city. If the city gate is closed, we also need to know what is inside the city. Case."

Although the west gate has been burned down, it may be blocked at any time. Once that happens, our news exchanges with the city may be blocked. Taking advantage of the current chaos in the entire city, we should strengthen intelligence construction.

At dawn the next day, Li Xiang also learned about the Piao King's City. He really didn't expect that General Mi Peng was really capable. Under his own encouragement, this guy immediately chose to take action.

When Changsun Ze left, Li Xiang also told him that he didn't expect these people to accomplish many big things. As long as they could disrupt the Piao King's city and make life difficult before we came over, it would be considered a success. .

Unexpectedly, they have overfulfilled the task. According to Chang Sunze's letter, they have surrounded the imperial city and recruited part of the army in the city. Although many people died at the west gate people, but now the army under control once again exceeds 7,000.

"Do you think these people will be in trouble?"

Li Xiang placed Zhang Sunze's letter in front of Zhang Jiuli.

Three cobblers are like Zhuge Liang. Although Li Xiang thinks he has a good head, sometimes he should listen to other people's opinions, especially resourceful people like Zhang Jiuli. After all, others can find the problems here.

"Based on the current situation, judging from the fact that he can control the army, it should be able to reach 10,000, but the King of Piao still has three to four thousand people. When the two sides break the imperial city, there should be one or two big battles. At the end of the battle, the general should have 8,000 men left, but His Highness does not need to worry, they have no food."

Zhang Jiuli pointed to the last paragraph of the letter and said that Changsun Ze sent people to investigate the city. Although a lot of food was brought in, when the Royal City Guards retreated, they directly set fire to the two major granaries in the city.

If there is food from these two large granaries, it is hard to say where General Mi Peng will go. After all, he will not panic if he has food in his hands, and he can do some excessive things. But if there is no food, his subordinates will His army is so numerous that it is useless for anything. When it is useful, it is an army. When it is not useful, it is just a mouth waiting to bite him to death.

"You are right. Then we will postpone going south and continue to stay in Wa City for a while to see how the situation is in the south. In addition, we will order our ships at sea to change the landing location and let them go to the port in the southern part of Pyu State. Log in."

All the people on the ship were brought from Fuso and Goguryeo, which was the security in the late war. When the personnel dropped them from the south, Li Xiang might not need to continue south with the current army. Li Xiang could go directly towards Kill in the southeast direction, where is the boundary of Zhenla.

Zhang Jiuli also heard the meaning of Li Xiang's words.

Pyu and Zhenla...

Zhang Jiuli looked at the sand table next to him. After taking these two places, it means that we have a foothold in the southern part of the Tang Dynasty. According to what His Highness said, these two countries will be our base of advancement in the future. Our The target is of course Tianzhu in the west.

According to His Highness and some businessmen, it is a very large area. If we can capture it, we will not only be able to enslave tens of millions of people, but also be able to surround Tubo from the north. For us in the Tang Dynasty, there is All benefit and no harm. (End of chapter)
