"Whether it is me or Su Lie's use of troops, it is all in the same vein as Li Jing and Taizong's idea of using troops."
The teacup in Li Tao's hand was raised and put down."
In the past few years, after Su Dingfang came out of the mountain, he must conquer and win the battle, and he is already the spokesperson of the Datang military, and he is bound to the honor and disgrace of Datang Wude.There are pros and cons to this matter, as long as Su Dingfang is dispatched externally, the enemy's momentum and psychology will lose half of it first.But the disadvantage is that if Su Dingfang can't defeat it, in the eyes of the Siyi vassals, they will have doubts about the myth of the Tang Army, and even waver. ”Li Tao's gaze sharpened."
It's very dangerous, and it can't be allowed to happen."
When he said this, Su Dawei immediately understood.I understood why Li Tao wanted to go around in such a big circle and tell himself this.Over the years, Su Dingfang has gone on an expedition, but there is only one place so far, which has not been able to break through.That is Goguryeo.If Goguryeo is not destroyed, the martial virtue myth of the Tang Dynasty will be shaken.This is an extremely dangerous signal for the Tang Dynasty, which uses a small number of force to deter the vassals of the whole world, and for the ruling strategy of the Tian Khan."
In fact, if you are in the army, you should also be able to find that in the past few years, the quality of the government soldiers has declined very much, and the people who followed Taizong to open the country are all outstanding people who survived the troubled times at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and their military literacy is extremely high.But these people are now dying and retreating.The new government soldiers are already inferior to the generation. ”Li Tao said: "Back then, Taizong fought Xue Renguo, and it only took three months from sending troops to destroying Western Qin.It only took six months to beat Song Jingang and Liu Wuzhou.It took only ten months to capture the two kings in the first battle, capture Dou Jiande and Wang Shichong, and pacify the whole of Shandong.It only took three months to beat Liu Heimin, from Chang'an to Hebei.It took only three months for Li Jing to destroy the Eastern Turks.It only took four months to extinguish Tuguhun.Hou Jun gathered to destroy Gaochang, marched for half a year, and fought for only a month.In the nineteenth year of Zhenguan, Taizong personally conquered Goguryeo, and it only took half a year. ”Saying this in one breath, Li Tao looked at Su Dawei with worried eyes: "Over the years, our army has won victories, except for Su Dingfang, who has won a few battles quickly, and the time spent on fighting is getting longer and longer, and it is common to fight for a year or two. ”Su Dawei couldn't help but be silent.Because what Li Tao said is the truth.But at the same time, huge doubts also rose in his heart, and at first, he thought that Li Tao was going to do ideological work for himself, and hoped that he would fully cooperate with him in fighting Goguryeo.But Li Tao's words went farther and farther, and by now, Su Dawei no longer knew what his true intentions were."
British ......"
"Su Dawei, I'm already old, after this battle, I really have to disarm and retire, Su Dingfang is also quite old, I really don't know how many years I can last."
Li Tao's expression became serious: "The old man told you this because he valued your talent. ”"I ......"
"If Su Dingfang and I die, who can inherit the martial virtues of the Tang Army?"
These words were deafening, and directly made Su Dawei completely stunned."
Since the beginning of the defense of the country, the army has always hoped that there will be generals to inherit the art of war, but to this day, only Su Dingfang is the only one, which can be regarded as inheriting the mantle of the defense of the country.As the founding minister of the Tang Dynasty, the old man can't help but think about the aftermath.If Su Dingfang and I are a hundred years later, who will lead the Tang Army?
The soldiers of the government military system are getting worse and worse.The old man looked around, and there was not even a decent general, can you understand the old man's worries?
”"British duke, there are many generals in the army, Liu Renliang, Liu Renyuan The two generals are the choice of the moment, as well as Qi Bi He Li, General Ashina Sheer, is also unparalleled in cavalry, in addition to Pang Xiaotai and Sun Renshi, who are also capable generals for a while, how can it be said that there are no decent generals?"
Stunned by Su Dawei's words, Li Tao choked for a moment, and then became furious: "How old are these people you mentioned, Liu Renliang and Liu Renyuan?"
Qibi He Li and Ashina Sheer, not to mention that they only know horse warfare, and they have not been caught in combat with the large army, just say that the two of them are also left by the Taizong Dynasty, how old are they?
Pang Xiaotai and Sun Renshi, the two are mainly in command of the water division, and the old man asks you, how many places do the water divisions need to fight in the territory of the Tang Dynasty?
”This time, it was Su Dawei's turn to be stunned.After being stunned for a moment, he said: "There are also Pei Xingjian, and Xue Rengui, these two people are not from the Taizong Dynasty, and they are not bad at using soldiers." ”"Hmph, Pei Xingjian learned from Su Dingfang, which is okay, but Pei Xingjian has a problem?""
What?""
Too slow."
As soon as he said this, Su Dawei immediately understood.The consciousness of being too slow is that the use of troops is too slow.Not as efficient as Su Dingfang.Li Tao sneered twice: "Why can we defeat so many enemies with such a small population, it is because we can use troops quickly and destroy the country quickly, so that we can not miss the agricultural time, do not hurt the fundamentals, and feed the war with war."
The longer the war drags on, the greater the cost to the country.This is difficult to last, how can we maintain the territory of Datang.Pei Xingjian can be a talent in this regard, but his use of troops is not as far away as Su Dingfang. ”"Then Xue Rengui ......"
Su Dawei didn't mention Xue Rengui, but when he mentioned Xue Rengui, Li Tao was suddenly annoyed: "Xue Rengui only knows how to be brave and brave with soldiers, and the changes are insufficient.At best, he can only play as a striker. ”Su Dawei was immediately unconvinced by these words and wanted to refute them, but when the words came to his lips, he thought about it, Li Tao's eyes were really poisonous.Although it is said that later generations will blow Xue Rengui to the sky and the earth, but looking at Xue Rengui's record, he can be regarded as a first-class general, but he is indeed far from a god-level player like Su Dingfang.And the later defeat in Dafeichuan completely confirmed Li Tao's evaluation at this time.Su Dawei actually wants to talk about Lou Shide, Wang Xiaojie and others under his command.Hei Tooth Changzhi and Sha Zha are similar, and after more than ten years, they can also become the mainstay of Datang.However, the positions of these people are still too low, and if they are pushed out, I am afraid that Li Tao will think that he has resigned forcefully.So shut up.Seeing that he seemed to admit defeat, Li Tao snorted, took a sip of tea and moistened his throat: "Why do you think the old man wasted so many lips and tongues?"
Just because, the old man is watching the Tang Army, and the person who may inherit Su Dingfang's position in the future is the only one who is Su Da. ”"Ahem, cough~" Su Dawei couldn't help coughing loudly."
Boss, don't torture me.""
Which battle report in the army I haven't read?
Which general am I not familiar with?
”Li Tao tapped his fingers on the table: "Among these achievements, of all the generals who can be named, only you have not tasted defeat so far, and you have grasped the essence of my Tang Dynasty's use of troops, and you are in the same vein." ”Su Dawei was about to be embarrassed by what Li Tao said.I thought to myself, what kind of medicine is sold in this old fox's gourd?
I guess I want to play Kill.I didn't dare to speak casually for a while.I only heard Li Tao continue: "In the battle of the Western Turks, you were the vanguard of Su Dingfang's men, and you jumped over Jinshan, starting from the use of troops against the Turks to capturing Ashina Helu, it took no more than half a year. ”After a pause, Li Tao continued: "Conquering Baekje, although you did not lead the army under Su Dingfang, you contributed a lot behind the scenes, and the old man also looked at them one by one.When dealing with the Baekje rebels, you first fought Goguryeo, then held the city of Sihyun, and finally took the city of Zhouliucheng in Buyeofeng.Then he defeated the Japanese naval division at Baijiang.These battles, done in one go, are crisp and neat. ”Li Tao made a knife with his right hand and gently swiped down.As if there was really an enemy army below, let him slaughter it.Su Dawei was still silent.Li Tao glanced at him, and then said: "Destroying the Japanese Kingdom, the old man has also read all the battle reports, from your landing in Kyushu, to breaking through the capital of the Japanese king, to pacifying Zhuzi, it took no more than half a year, and most of the time was still used to sort out the place and consolidate the rear. ”Speaking of this, Li Tao's eyes revealed a touch of appreciation: "Most people use their hands to march and fight, but Su Da is different from you, you really use your brain and heart." ”Without waiting for Su Dawei to open his mouth and be humble, Li Tao raised his hand and pressed down: "From the first time I saw you, the old man said, I look at people, I have to look at the right eye, as long as I see the right thing, the old man is confident that he will never be wrong."
In the future, the person who can inherit the mantle of me and Su Dingfang and hold up the soldiers and martial arts of the Tang Dynasty must be you, Su Dawei. ”It's over.British male, if you blow this rainbow fart again, I will believe it.Su Dawei looked at him speechlessly.I still can't believe that this old fox would boast about himself like this.What's the picture?
If you have nothing to do, there must be a demon when something goes wrong?
Li Tao couldn't guess what Su Dawei was thinking.He stroked his long beard and said: "The strength of the government soldiers cares about winning people, since the old man has found a talent like you, he naturally wants to come forward, I hope that in the future, you can really come out and take charge of yourself, if you have the opportunity, you can also take care of the old man's descendants." ”Su Dawei's heart moved.looked up at Li Tao, but found that this person, who was later rated as "old and cunning" by Wu Meiniang, was a famous British general, with clean and clear eyes without a trace of impurities.His gaze was honest and sincere.There is no doubt that his emotions at the moment are sincere.Could it be that what he said was true?
The old fox began to think about his own aftermath.I hope that in a hundred years, I will be able to take care of his descendants.Wait, isn't his descendant Xu Jingye who raised an army against Wu Meiniang?
That big pit will be so tired that Li Tao will be dissected and poked at the corpse, and this pot can't be accepted.Su Dawei felt a thrill in his heart, and looked at Li Tao and didn't know how to reply to him for a while.Li Tao was like a beautiful scenery, waved his hand and said: "Okay, after saying so much, I just want to find out the talents for the Tang Dynasty, after all, this empire was fought by Emperor Taizong with a few of our old ministers in the past, one hand and one foot."
We can't fight anymore when we are old, and we also hope that there will be talents from all generations of the country to inherit the undefeated prestige of the Tang Army. ”"Rest assured, our Datang will become stronger and stronger.""
Hehe, as long as there are a few more talents like you, the old man also believes that Datang will continue to be strong."
Li Tao Fu Xu laughed heartily.His city is too deep, and Su Dawei can't tell whether he is true or disguised for a while."
By the way, let's go back to Goguryeo, Su Dingfang's field, we have to find it back, the Tang army must win this time, so about this victory, I plan to ......" ()
