In the Imperial Court!
The civil and military officials agreed with Zhangsun Wuji's strategy.
Abandoning their own prejudices and thinking from the perspective of facts, Zhangsun Wuji's strategy was not only correct, but also a brilliant plan!
This was indeed the case. Jiannan Road had the most soldiers among the ten provincial roads of the Great Tang.
Although the border defense line was long, the terrain was mostly easy to defend and difficult to attack.
For example, Sword Gate Pass. In such a terrain, as long as 100 soldiers had sufficient long-range weapons, even 10,000 soldiers would find it difficult to break through.
Tuyuhun only had a few soldiers. If all the people who could fight were sent out, there would only be less than 500,000 people.
Moreover, only the Xianbei people could fight to the death for Tuyuhun, which was 350,000 soldiers!
Murong Xianbei's rule was cruel and did not understand politics, so the highlands natives would not fight to the death for them.
350,000 soldiers, 150,000 left behind, and 200,000 attacked Guan County.
No matter what, Jian Nandao could at least send out a hundred or eighty thousand men to defend.
Although Guan County was like a city on a plain between two mountains, it was only defended by the city walls connecting the mountains on both sides.
Moreover, there was more than one opening. There was also the Minjiang River!
The enemy could still enter through the water, because they could not cut off the river that passed through the two countries.
However, if one hundred thousand or eighty thousand people gathered to defend against these two openings, they could still block them.
Even though the sacrifice would be great!
However, as long as the imperial court army could quickly take down the capital of Tuyuhun and let them return to help, the crisis in Guan County would be resolved.
From this point of view, there was no such thing as harming Jiannan Dao!
There were sacrifices to be made when soldiers fought to protect the country. There was nothing to say.
"What's wrong with Lord Zhangsun today? Why is he so hot-blooded?”
"Yes, I am!"
"The old fox has turned into a tiger?"
"He's a resourceful person, so it's normal for him to come up with such a strategy.”
“......”
Amidst all the praise, the first person to look suspiciously at Zhangsun Wuji was Hou Junji!
Next was Li Jing, Qin Qiong, and the others who had been whispering to Hou Junji.
They also looked at Zhangsun Wuji suspiciously.
They felt that something was wrong. Just because he knew that the Ministry of War did not know about military intelligence, it was wrong!
Of course, this could not be used to explain anything.
Zhangsun Wuji had such a wide network of people, it was easy for him to find out anything!
However, what Hou Junji didn't know was that Jiannan Dao had done a very good job guarding against Zhangsun Wuji.
Hou Junji had only known this because Tuyuhun's emissary had told him.
As for Tuyuhun, he had also sold him and even helped him count the money.
At this moment, Zhangsun Wuji took advantage of the commotion as everyone was discussing to look at Lu Shou and Cui Min.
He whispered," All of you, inform your respective prefectures and counties. Tell your families to make arrangements. We must delay the gathering of troops."”
"Your Majesty is personally leading the army. You must be slow!”
"We have to drag it out until Jiannan Dao's forces are exhausted before we can gather in Shanzhou.”
"We must drag Lin Hao to death!"
Lu Shou and Cui Min's eyes jumped, and they immediately nodded.
They knew that Zhangsun Wuji was good at scheming behind people's backs.
One had to know that the people standing here were only the masters of the Cui and Lu families. Only these two masters who were great at Confucianism were officials here.
The other family heads of the five surnames and seven Wangs were not here.
The five surnames and the Seven Wangs were the only representatives of the aristocratic families in the world, but they were not the only ones.
For example, the Zhangsun Clan, which aimed to monopolize the official career, had also become a new aristocratic clan.
It could be said that all the gentry clans in the world wore pants that connected their legs. They had their own county prestige. Scholars, farmers, businessmen, local military and government, they all had people.
Not to mention that the Viceroy would listen to them completely, even if they didn't, how many of the officials under the Viceroy were their people?
No one knew how many there were, but there were a lot of them!
The subordinate officials played tricks and sent gold, silver, and caesium to the places where they needed to be paid.
It was extremely simple to delay the speed of the gathering and the speed of the army!
If he did this, he would be able to drag down Lin Hao and Meng Gang to the greatest extent while also exhausting Tuyuhun's forces to the greatest extent.
It also guaranteed that Li Shiming would win the battle with the strong.
For the sake of Li Shi Min's safety, for the sake of Li Shi Min's reputation as the Heavenly Khan, for the sake of his own glory, he had put in a lot of effort.
However, if he did that, he would be in trouble for the Jiannan Dao soldiers and civilians!
However, Zhangsun Wuji did not know that there was a finger-sized hole in the window beside them.
One of her eyes was staring straight at them as they whispered to each other.
Although she couldn't hear what they were saying, she knew that they were up to no good from their eyes and expressions.
Yuchi Baolin retreated and placed one hand on the pillar.
With one hand, he supported himself on the huge pillar that supported the dragon-patterned beam that spanned the entire hall.
"What is it, General Yuchi?" Wen Ya asked softly.
Li Lizhi looked at his serious expression and seemed to be deep in thought.
She understood Yuchi Baolin. He was the oldest brother in their generation and had a lot of experience in the military. He had many friends in the martial world, and he was also very experienced.
It was a dark burly man, but he was definitely not a reckless man.
His expression must have made sense.
Li Lizhi looked at Yuchi Baolin and asked seriously and anxiously,""What's wrong, Big Brother Yuchi?"
She was worried that her uncle, who was more cunning than a thief, would come up with some tricks to mess with Lin Hao.
However, she did not hear it.
It sounded like a good plan!
"Damn it!"
Boom!
Yuchi Baolin smashed his fist on the pillar. He gritted his teeth in hatred and whispered,""I saw Zhangsun Wuji and Cui Lu whispering to each other with evil expressions.”
"There's a problem. There must be a problem here.”
"Zhangsun Wuji wouldn't be so kind. He must be up to something.”
"But I didn't hear what they said.”
Humph!
Li Lizhi's eyes were filled with hatred. She snorted coldly and said,"I knew he wasn't that kind.”
"I hope Lin Hao can handle it!”
"Tell me, if I persuade Imperial Father not to personally lead the army and not follow Zhangsun Wuji's wishes, will I be able to help Lin Hao?”
"It should be possible!" Yuchi Baolin nodded.”
" But His Majesty won't agree."
"The Heavenly Khagan's fame in the western world is simply too tempting.”
Yuchi Baolin looked at Li Lizhi and said,""It seems that the morning court session is about to end. Her Highness will first go to the Empress to apologize. At that time, we'll see what we can do.”
"That's all for now!"
Li Lizhi and Wenya nodded and prepared to part ways with Yuchi Baolin.
However, at this moment, something big happened in the hall. It was a huge thing!
On top of Li Shiming's head, where the dragon scales were!
In the groove of the anti-poem, the clay turned into small pieces of soil and fell down.
Coincidentally, it landed on the jade seal box on the dragon table.
After three years, the word that appeared in front of Li Shiming and the officials was the word 'kill' for 'when autumn comes, September 8th, I will kill all the flowers when they bloom!'!!
