Chapter 735: Selling the Old


Li Mu slowly withdrew a leg that was being gently pinched by two Goguryeo girls.

The two Goguryeo girls who were beating their backs behind him waved their hands and motioned for them to step back together.

Then he stretched his waist, straightened up, nodded and said, "Uncle Wang is right, if you are idle, I am afraid that there will be worms on the soldiers." ” Hearing Li Mu's response, Xi Junmai, Cheng Mingzhen and others were overjoyed.

"Dare to ask Your Highness, when will we go on the expedition" Li Mu rolled his eyes, "Who said they were going to go on the expedition?"

After speaking, he leaned back again, lifted Erlang's legs, and trembled.

As soon as Xi Junmai and the others got excited, they were drenched with cold water.

Frustrated, he sat back, his face full of resentment.

Li Mu nodded to Xi Jun and said: "For the general, first of all, you must be calm, impetuous, how can you take on the big responsibility, you can talk about it, this king has spent a lot of effort to build the defense of the three cities, but now he has to take the initiative to go north, let the army use flesh and blood, to gnaw the high wall of Hanzhou, are you stupid and cheap, you are a bastard, you say you are stupid."

Xi Junmai was scolded so red that his face was flushed, but he didn't dare to fight back, so he could only respond: "Your Highness is right, Your Highness's golden and jade good words, and the last will remember His Highness's teachings." ” Li Mu ordered Xi Jun to buy, and said to Li Xiaogong: "Listen, Uncle Wang, listen, this kid is humble in his mouth, and he may be scolding this king in his stomach." ” Li Xiaogong sighed.

The rest of the group laughed together.

Xi Junmai blushed, and denied it again and again: "The last general will never dare to slander His Highness." ” "Really" "Nature is true."

"Well, early tomorrow morning, order 5,000 men and horses, prepare dry food and set off immediately, cross the Lushan River, go fifty miles north, and ambush on the spot, without the order of this king, even if the sky falls, you must not move."

Xi Jun was stunned for a moment, "Your Highness just said that if you don't take advantage of it, you will be a bastard, and the last general will think that Your Highness will rely on the solidity of Jieshan City to fight against Yuan Gai Suwen."

Now he has ordered the last general to go out of the city to ambush, dare to ask His Highness what this move means, is His Highness going to test the last general's ability to survive in the field at the military academy."

Li Mu was solemn, groaned for a while, slowly turned his head to look at Xi Junmai, and under Xi Junmai's eager gaze, he slowly spit out two words, "Guess." ” Immediately, regardless of Xi Junmai's fly-like expression and the rest of the generals laughing.

He said to Cheng Mingzhen: "You immediately return to Baicheng, order 5,000 men and horses, prepare dry food and set off early tomorrow morning, cross the Baishui River, go north for fifty miles, and ambush on the spot. ” Now everyone stopped laughing, Cheng Mingzhen also got such an order, it could never be what kind of bullshit exercise assessment Xi Junmai said.

Li Xiaogong spread out the map, and everyone surrounded him except Li Mu.

After whispering for a while, Li Xiaogong pointed to the map and said: "Look, the Baishui River and the Lushan River are from north to south, forming a figure-of-eight, and Yuangai Suwen will lead the army from Hanzhou to the south, and it will definitely pass through this fork. ” When Li Xiaogong said this, the generals nodded again and again.

This makes sense why Li Mu suddenly sent two partial divisions.

Seeing that everyone agreed with his analysis, Li Xiaogong turned his head to Li Mu and asked, "Your Highness, is your guess right?"

Everyone's eyes looked at Li Mu, wanting to get confirmation from his mouth.

Because they all coveted the 200,000 army of Yuan Gai Suwen, 200,000 people, how much reward they would get Li Mu listened to Li Xiaogong's analysis, and secretly admired in his heart, Li Xiaogong is indeed powerful.

However, Li Mu did not exactly think as Li Xiaogong said.

With the temperament and combat power of the Divine Guard, it is not impossible to eat Yuangai Suwen, but it will require considerable casualties.

Although it is the duty of a soldier to spill blood on the battlefield, Li Mu is reluctant, especially when Li Shimin is eyeing him behind him, Li Mu is even more unwilling to use the blood of the soldiers of the Divine Guard to achieve Li Shimin's reputation.

Therefore, what Li Mu wanted was not to close the door and fight dogs, catch turtles in urns, and eat Yuangai Suwen, which was equivalent to sweeping away all the formed armies south of Goguryeo Kaesong.

It is very likely that Goguryeo will be greatly damaged by this, and will quickly surrender to the Tang Dynasty for peace talks.

With Li Shimin's temperament, it is absolutely possible to accept Goguryeo's request for peace, because he also does not want to see Li Mu make a contribution to destroying the country.

If the imperial court accepted Goguryeo's request for peace, then the battle of Liaodong, without the participation of Goguryeo, it would be absolutely impossible for the Yan Dynasty to fight against the Tang Dynasty on its own.

In other words, the Liaodong War is likely to end early.

This is not in line with Li Mu's strategic intentions, he wants to delay the end of the war.

Drag a large number of troops and supplies in Liaodong, the more the better.

Of course, this does not mean that Li Mu does not want to weaken and destroy Goguryeo.

What Li Mu wants is to absolutely control the progress and rhythm of the battlefield, then he needs to constantly weaken Goguryeo's strength, otherwise it doesn't matter how to control the rhythm.

And the premise of this is not to pay the price that you don't want to see.

Therefore, Li Mu's real intention in sending two partial divisions was to tear off a piece of meat from the 200,000 army of Yuangai Suwen.

It made Yuan Gai Suwen painful, and Goguryeo painful, and made them hateful, but they couldn't lose their fighting spirit.

This degree is difficult to grasp, but Li Mu has to do it.

Concentrate his forces, rely on the strong defense of Jieshan Castle, and hit Yuangai Suwen, and then attack by two partial divisions on the way to Yuangai Suwen's retreat.

In this way, you can get the maximum result at the lowest cost.

Therefore, hearing Li Xiaogong's inquiry, Li Mu shook his head slightly and said: "Uncle Wang is only half right, what is right is tactics, and what is wrong is strategy. ” Li Xiaogong was not annoyed, he asked, "Please give advice to Your Highness." ” "What I want is fewer deaths, and the lives of the Divine Guards are far from being comparable to those of the Goguryeo people.

Xi Junmai, Cheng Mingzhen. ” "The end will be."

"Lone has only one requirement for you, and it is what you must do.

That is, in this battle, the casualties of each division must not exceed two hundred.

This is the limit, if you bring a huge battle damage to this king, even if you bring the head of Yuangai Suwen, Lone will punish you for the crime of violating the order.

Remember?"

"We will strictly obey His Highness's orders."

"The rest of the departments are actively preparing for war, and Lone got the news that Yuangai Suwen has already led the army from Hanzhou."

"Whoa" "Everyone, disperse.

Uncle Wang, please wait, I still have something to discuss. ” After the generals withdrew.

Li Xiaogong asked: "Your Highness, what is the matter?"

Li Mu said: "I want to ask Uncle Wang about it, and I hope Uncle Wang will not refuse." ” "Your Highness, but it doesn't hurt to say it
