In the quiet palace, the incense burner on the side is burning sandalwood, and the slightly fragrant but not pungent smoke escapes in the air, which makes the whole palace more quiet, and several pots of pruned quite delicate potted plants are dotted around, adding a bit of freshness.
It can be regarded as a very particular enjoyment, but Liu Xie doesn't think it's too much, the dignified emperor, he is busy with national politics on weekdays, and he is already very tired.
Guo Jia wanted to pull the cork of the wine gourd several times, but after looking at Liu Xie, he finally sighed, or gave up, I don't know when the little emperor started to learn so much, if this atmosphere really pulls the stopper, it will completely dilute this quiet and elegant atmosphere.
"What do these Xianbei people want to do" Looking at the information handed over by Jia Xu, Liu Xie's brows furrowed slightly.
In fact, according to the reports from the Zhen, Su and Zhang families, in recent times, the Xianbei people have intercepted more than ten batches of caravans sent by His Majesty to the Western Regions to buy grain, and only one caravan has really returned."
Jia Xu sighed.
"Ten don't save one" Liu Xie narrowed his eyes, suddenly looked at Jia Xu and said: "Wen He thinks that these people will collude with the Huns" "Not really."
Jia Xu shook his head: "The information from the secret guard shows that these few plunders have not only lost all their property, but also lost a lot of manpower of the three families, many of which are direct or important clansmen, if this is the case, then this loss is too great." ” "The caravan that hasn't left yet, stop the grain purchase plan."
Rubbing his temples, Liu Xie smiled bitterly: "I thought that I could at least save one, but now it seems that I take it for granted, these Xianbei barbarians are really too presumptuous."
In the end, Liu Xie gritted his teeth a little, the loss was not a small amount, even if the money was obtained for nothing, but such a big loss, and the actual profit was minimal, it still made Liu Xie angry.
Now that the autumn harvest is over, the dilemma of lack of grain in Guanzhong has been overcome, and there is no need to rush to introduce a large amount of grain, but if a war is launched, it will be a bottomless pit, and there will be no dissatisfaction.
"The most important thing is because the transportation this time is all grain and grass, and the Hu people are more realistic, and in the face of survival, no matter how big the connections are, it is not easy to use."
Guo Jia leaned on the back cushion and shook his head.
When Liu Xie heard this, he shook his head and sneered: "But there are some things that may not be digested if they are swallowed, and I will let them spit them out." ” "Your Majesty wants to use troops against the grassland" Jia Xu raised his eyebrows and looked at Liu Xiedao.
Liu Xie hesitated for a moment, but finally shook his head: "Saiwaihu people, full of wolf nature, it is not difficult to defeat him, but it is very difficult to destroy him" There was a Han dynasty, I don't know how many Ming Jun wanted to destroy the grassland forces, but the grassland forces were as vigorous as weeds, the Huns, Xianbei, and Wuhuan harvested a batch, and soon another batch will grow, and now the court is weak, although the last time the Xiongnu were wiped out, but that kind of trick can not be repeated.
"Besides, now the imperial court is weak, but it can't withstand an expedition, although the pre-Qin army has a big example of breaking the Huns, but as far as I know, that battle, not only integrated the power of the world, but also prepared for three years just to prepare, and there is more time and place and people to help each other, so as to get such brilliant results, now I am afraid that I don't have the energy to deal with Xianbei."
In the end, Liu Xie vetoed the idea.
Although he was angry, he could only take a defensive position now and wait and see what happened, and the battle between Qianman and the leader may be an opportunity.
"That's not necessarily" Guo Jia squinted his eyes and shook his head: "The Xianbei people's offensive advantage is too great, especially the Hetao generation, once the Xianbei people are determined to be the enemy of our dynasty, after all, they are too passive, and the Hetao generation is the most suitable for cavalry galloping, once the other party strikes first, our army will completely fall into passivity, and now it is very difficult for the secret guard to collect intelligence on the grassland, and now what is the situation inside Xianbei, there is no way to find out. ” "The meaning of filial piety is" Liu Xie looked at Guo Jia suspiciously.
"Break the trick with strength and take the initiative to attack" Guo Jia's eyes flashed with a dangerous light: "As far as the minister knows, although the people of this Saiwaihu are all soldiers, and in the heyday of Xianbei, they were even known as controlling 300,000 strings, but Your Majesty should know that even if he really has 300,000 people who control the strings, it is impossible for them to get together from time to time, and if they want to survive, they must graze." ” "Feng Xiao is saying," Liu Xie raised his eyebrows.
"It is the Xianbei royal tent, when the non-war is called, there are only one to twenty thousand people to protect the main king's tent, and the rest of the population is mostly scattered throughout the grassland in a tribal situation."
Guo Jia continued.
"Order a strange soldier to attack the king's tent" Liu Xie leaned on the back of his chair, thinking about the feasibility of this matter, Xianbei is different from the Xiongnu after all, even if it has passed the most glorious era of Tanshihuai, it has fallen into today's division period, but it is still not to be underestimated, the last time it was able to directly attack the king's tent, it was because the Xiongnu sent the main force to loot Guanzhong by their own death, this time the Xianbei people obviously did not do this, then it was a little difficult to directly attack the king's tent.
The most important thing is that God knows where the Xianbei King's tent is, even if it is found, how can it not be discovered "Fei Ye" Guo Jia smiled coldly and said: "If you hit the king's tent directly, not to mention the chance of success, even if you win by luck, but Xianbei is still there, at most after a little chaos, a new Shan Yu will reappear, the minister's meaning is just the opposite, except for the king's tent, any tribe, no matter how big or small, is the target of our army's attack." ” "Your Majesty can send a general who is good at cavalry warfare to lead a cavalry to invade Xianbei, attack all the human gathering places you see, avoid the real and attack the weak, and the troops will cross the border, leaving no grass behind."
It is hard to imagine that Guo Jia's weak body broke out at this moment, even Liu Xie and Jia Xu, who were used to seeing big scenes, were a little chilling.
"As long as the royal court is not dispersed, those Xianbei people will not stay away, as long as they avoid the main force of Xianbei and continue to destroy the Xianbei tribe, no matter what conspiracy Xianbei has, it has no meaning to my court, if he really wants to enter the Hetao, then give him the Hetao, and then hehe" For some reason, listening to Guo Jia's last laughter, Liu Xie always felt a little chilled.
And then what, naturally, it was closed and the dogs were beaten.
I always feel that this strategy is a little crazy, and this way of playing sounds quite familiar, after a while Liu Xie reacted, this kind of coming and going like the wind, with the help of mobility to let the enemy eat the soil, is clearly the nomadic habitual trick, in fact, Guo Jia's style of play, some of the meaning of injuring the enemy a thousand, self-damage of eight hundred, but the unreasonable place is that 10,000 soldiers and horses, Liu Xie's loss, even the most elite cavalry, he also lost, but Xianbei people can not withstand this kind of toss.
After all, the grassland is not the same as the terrain in Guanzhong, the cavalry of the Han army entered the grassland, that is, it was casual, but if the Xianbei people entered the territory of the Han family, the Xiongguan barrier, slowly break through, and the cavalry siege the city, no matter how you think about it, it feels a little funny, even if it is consumed, they can be consumed to death, of course, the most important point is that the cavalry generals sent out are powerful enough, not only to be able to fight tough battles, but also to have enough battlefield smell, to avoid the opponent's main force of encirclement and suppression.
Liu Xie looked at Guo Jia: "This plan is ruthless enough, I like it, but it will take some time." ” "Wait" Guo Jia frowned and said: "Your Majesty, this matter should not be too soft, if Xianbei and Han Sui attack at the same time, our army will fall into passivity." ” Although there is no evidence, Guo Jia has been keenly aware that Xianbei is so abnormally competing with the imperial court, which must have something to do with Han Sui.
"It won't be too long, gather the soldiers and horses first, I will prepare some things, if I have this thing to help, the odds of victory can be improved a lot."
Liu Xie said with a smile: "But the Ministry of Industry is going to suffer, how long will it take to gather people?"
"This expedition, the manpower should not be too manpower, but not too little, and to maintain sufficient mobility, one person is needed to multiply, with the current situation of our army, eight thousand people are the most appropriate, it will take about half a month to assemble, as for the leading generals" Jia Xu looked at Liu Xie and smiled: "The minister thinks that except for Wen Hou, looking at the world, there is no one who can do it." ” Lu Bu Now that he is his father-in-law, it always feels a little different, but at this time, since he has decided to fight, except for Lu Bu, Liu Xie really can't think of a second person, even if it is Zhao Yun, it is not as suitable as Lu Bu.
"Okay" didn't hesitate for too long, Liu Xie patted the case and said: "I personally went to invite, in addition, I ordered Gao Shun to go to Hetao to replace Zilong, in this battle, in addition to Lu Bu, but also Zhao Yun and Wei Yan's two generals to go with the army." ” Zhao Yun's ability and talent have already been seen, in this kind of battle, his ability can be stimulated the most, and Wei Yan's talent is also suitable, with Lu Bu, the god of war and those things he has prepared, the chances of winning this war will increase a lot.
At that moment, Liu Xie ordered someone to inform Wei Yan and Gao Shun to prepare to leave, and he went to Lu Mansion in person, after all, this matter has a great risk, even if it is Lu Bu, it is impossible to say that it is foolproof, there is no supply, there is no backup, once it is surrounded, it is not that there is no danger of annihilation, how to say, it is also his father-in-law, this attitude must be had.
However, as soon as Lu Bu and Wei Yan left, and then rectified Xiliang, Liu Xie's generals who could be used were only Huang Zhong, Zhang Xiu, Fan Chou, Xiahou Lan and Fang Sheng.
Fifteen days, there are a lot of things to do, but to Liu Xie's surprise, Lu Bu agreed without thinking about it after learning about Liu Xie's plan, which made Liu Xie, who had already prepared a set of rhetoric, a little speechless, but this is okay, the next step is to prepare. t1706231537:
