This Matter Is Quite Simple
Fang Xuanling and the others were eliminated one by one, and finally, they locked onto the candidate for the general.
After that.
The next topic was the specific military strategy.
When it came to this question, everyone did not have much disagreement. They all agreed that Tubo was easy to defend and difficult to attack.
"The terrain of Tubo is steep and not conducive for the army to march. Moreover, it was easy to defend and difficult to attack. It could be said that one man could hold off ten thousand people.”
Fang Xuanling's face was filled with worry.
"This is only secondary. The most important thing is that it is said that the air in Tubo is thin and easy to suffocate. If they were to attack rashly, they would probably lose their fighting strength before they even sent out their troops.”
Li Daozong frowned.
Li Shi Min's face was solemn.
He also knew about the situation that Li Daozong had mentioned.
However, since the expedition had already been decided, the war had to be fought.
There was no reason for him to go back on his word.
Moreover, when he decided to reject the marriage alliance, he had already expected this situation.
However, how could he break out of this situation?
Fang Xuanling and the others frowned as they pondered. Occasionally, they would make one or two suggestions, but they were quickly rejected.
In the end, everyone realized.
There was actually no particularly effective method to deal a heavy blow to the Tibetan army.
Even Li Daozong, who strongly advocated attacking Tibet, did not say a word.
Everyone was at a loss.
For a moment, the atmosphere was heavy.
Seeing that they wouldn't be able to reach a conclusion in a short while, Li Shimin raised his hand.
He was just about to ask everyone to leave and discuss it with the Bureau of Military Personnel.
At this moment, a weak voice came from the corner.
"This matter is quite simple."
Everyone turned their heads in unison.
Only then did he notice Chu Wen's presence.
Just now, he had actually forgotten about Chu Wen.
"And you are?"
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui couldn't help but say.
They had never met Chu Wen before, and after searching in their minds, they had never seen this young man before.
He could not help but ask.
Chu Wen gave a strange bow and said,""My name is Chu Wen. Greetings, sirs.”
Chu Wen?
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui revealed thoughtful expressions.
Why did this name sound so familiar?
Then, he remembered that this was Li Daozong's son-in-law.
The legendary son-in-law of another family!
Although they had never met, everyone had heard of Chu Wen's name.
In fact, from a certain perspective, the Tibetan crisis today was also caused by Chu Wen's opinion.
"So you're the son-in-law of the Regional King. I've long heard of you, haha.”
Fang Xuanling smiled and said in a large volume.
What a handsome man!
Although he was not very old, he had a handsome face and a straight back. There was also an indescribable aura about him.
Du Ruhui was also sizing up Chu Wen.
The two of them were extremely envious of Li Daozong. He had actually recruited such a good son-in-law.
Seeing Chu Wen in the royal study, the two of them couldn't help but feel surprised.
This was because, under normal circumstances, it was not easy for ordinary officials to meet the Emperor.
Chu Wen not only saw the Emperor, but he was also in the royal study.
Such treatment was not easy.
After all, the Emperor would only receive his trusted aides in the royal study.
One could imagine how important Chu Wen was to the Emperor.
Li Daozong, on the other hand, had a smug look on his face.
Her son-in-law was too proud.
Recently, due to Chu Wen, he was envied by his colleagues.
Chu Wen was speechless.
Why were the few old fellows looking at him?
So be it, he was still looking at her as if she was his son-in-law.
When did I have three fathers-in-law?
Actually, he didn't want to say anything.
However, firstly, it was because everyone was chattering non-stop and their ears were about to get calluses.
Secondly, this matter had started because of him.
Therefore, in order to leave as soon as possible and help with the aftermath, he decided to show his face.
Anyway, his reputation had already spread.
After all, being outstanding was not a mistake.
Li Shi Min's eyes lit up as he looked at Chu Wen.
It was as if he had seen hope.
She had forgotten that Chu Wen was still here. If she had known earlier, she wouldn't have been so conflicted.
He could have just asked Chu Wen directly.
With Chu Wen's talent, he might be able to point out the right path.
"You said that this matter is very simple. Could it be that you already have a countermeasure?" he said gently.”
Everyone perked up their ears to hear Chu Wen's answer.
"There are indeed two countermeasures. If nothing unexpected happens, they should be able to make the Tubo kneel and submit.”
Chu Wen said casually.
It was as if he was talking about something insignificant.
In truth, to the Great Tang, this was truly insignificant.
Isn't it just a tiny place?
Pan it!
Li Shi Min and the others couldn't help but be surprised.
Kneeling down and becoming a minister, this was too exaggerated.
According to their thoughts, it would be good enough if they could defeat the Tibetans.
As for kneeling down and becoming a minister, he didn't dare to think about it.
However, when they saw the confident expression on Chu Wen's face, they couldn't help but believe him.
Perhaps he could really do it.
"Virtuous son-in-law, don't keep me in suspense.”
Li Daozong said.
Although he was old, he had a rather impatient personality.
"It's actually very simple. The biggest problem now is that the Tibetan army is too far away from the Great Tang. If their supplies can't keep up, they'll easily lose.”
"But since it's not good for us if we're too far away, what if we're closer?”
As soon as he finished speaking.
Everyone's faces revealed a look of realization.
"You mean to lure the enemy in?" Du Ruhui asked.”
"Exactly! At the very beginning, we must show weakness to lure the enemy in. In this way, not only would the advantage of the Tibetan terrain disappear, but they would also be able to defeat the enemy. It could also reduce the worry of supplies and wait for fatigue. It can be said to be killing two birds with one stone!"
Chu Wen spoke frankly.
Hearing his son-in-law's suggestion, Li Daozong couldn't help but pinch his beard and smile.
This method was indeed pleasing and saving effort.
At that time, if he did it well, he could send a Tang army to block the Tibetan army's retreat after they left the base camp.
This would form a pincer attack. Over time, it would definitely be able to drag down the Tibetan army.
At that time, he estimated that he would not even need to make a big move to make the Tubo submit.
"This method is too wonderful. Using one's own strengths to attack the enemy's weaknesses, directly turning the disadvantage into an advantage.”
"What a good move to lure the enemy in."
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui sighed.
Li Shi Min looked at Chu Wen with approval and nodded.
As expected, he didn't disappoint.
Then, he couldn't help but feel pity.
With Chu Wen's talent, he actually became a businessman. Wasn't this a waste of talent?
However, everyone had their own aspirations, and he could not force it.
Moreover, with Chu Wen and Li Daozong's status as son-in-law, it didn't make much of a difference whether Chu Wen was an official or not.
"You said that there are two methods. What is the second method?”
Li Shi Min asked.
