Chapter 3723 Everyone is at peace with their destiny
[The national anthem at the Olympic Games is so cool to listen to! 】
Li Ji continued: "Whether it is the Changsun family or the Yuwen family, they have been the first and second best in Guanlong over the years. They have helped each other to form a whole, and at the same time they have been afraid of each other and secretly undermined each other. It is obvious, who is the first at this moment? Right Whoever is at the right guard will be attacked by the full force of the right guard. Who among Changsun Jiaqing and Yu Wenlong is willing to withstand the fierce attack of the right guard and create an opportunity for the other person to make a contribution? "
< br>
Cheng Yaojin had always been convinced by Li Ji. After hearing Li Ji's analysis, he thought deeply and said: "Don't you mean that this will give that boy Fang Er a chance to defeat each other?"
Li Ji picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, shook his head, and said slowly: "On the battlefield, unless the combat power of both sides is overwhelming, both sides will have various opportunities to win. But this This kind of opportunity is fleeting, and it is really difficult to grasp it accurately, and this is why The difference between a general and a commander. Fang Jun's ability to lead troops is indeed outstanding, but the reason why he is able to win repeated battles is due to his innovation in military tactics. His ability to strategize and win decisively on the battlefield is slightly insufficient, which is crucial to this battle. For Guan Long, it may just be whether Changsun Wuji can control the peace talks. Guidance, and for the East Palace, once defeated, the Xuanwu Sect would not be protected and its collapse was imminent. Under such circumstances, Fang Jun did not dare to act hastily and could only seek stability. The best way was to ask for help. Duke Wei asked for advice... However, this goes back to grasping the opportunity. Changsun Wu Ji is scheming. Once he has made a mistake, he must quickly realize it and correct it. However, Fang Jun delayed the opportunity while asking Wei Gong for advice. In the end, whether he can seize this fleeting opportunity or Changsun Wuji can do it in time To make up for it, it all depends on God’s will.”
Cheng Yaojin and Zhang Liang nodded repeatedly.
They are all veterans who have been on the battlefield for many years and are among the top generals in the world. Their analysis of battle situations may not be as clear as Li Ji's, but their military literacy is absolutely high.
On the battlefield, tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people often fight against each other, and the situation changes rapidly. Because it is people who formulate strategies and implement strategies. People will make mistakes and have their own ideas and opinions, which will naturally lead to changes in the entire strategy due to the deviation of one person.
A single move can affect the whole body. In a war of this scale, it can affect the final outcome.
That’s why there is a saying, “It’s up to people to plan things, and it’s up to God to make things happen.” No matter how amazing the talent is, no matter how exhaustive the plan is, no one can really control everything...
Cheng Yaojin thought for a while and had a different opinion: "Fang Er is indeed a little inferior in terms of strategy, but he is extremely courageous and courageous. It only seems that he was originally ordered to recover Dingxiang, but he was keenly aware of the situation in Mobei." situation, so it can be seen that he resolutely marched out of Baidao. The quarrel between Changsun Jiaqing and Yu Wenlong caused the established strategy to deviate and reveal huge flaws. Fang Er was still able to see this, and naturally understood that opportunities were fleeting, so he might not not work hard. Give it a try.”
This is a judgment based on the understanding of Fang Jun's character.
In fact, Cheng Yaojin has always felt that Fang Jun is almost the same type of person as him. He is arrogant, domineering and unscrupulous in front of outsiders, using a reckless and impulsive appearance to cover himself. In fact, he is extremely calm in his heart, and often seems to be willful and willful. For, in fact, make a decision before taking action.
That's right, this is how Duke Lu sees himself...
Li Ji pondered for a while and nodded in agreement: "Maybe you are right. If you take it seriously, the rebels will definitely suffer a big loss this time."
He was indeed not optimistic about Fang Jun's ability in strategy. He was considered excellent, but he was by no means top-notch, and would not be better than a wily person like Chang Sun Wuji. But there was one thing he couldn't ignore, that was Fang Jun's record was so amazing.
Since becoming an official, he has faced powerful enemies one after another, such as Turkic Langqi, Xue Yantuo, Tuyuhun, Dacan... not to mention the people of Silla, Wa, and Annan. As a result, he has won many battles without losing.
Even Li Jing, who was known as the "God of War", had to be inferior in this achievement. After all, as the nephew of the former Sui general Han Qinhu, Li Jing's starting point was far inferior to Fang Jun's. At the beginning of his career, he had to face all the heroes in the world. The situation arises and we are helpless.
However, Fang Jun's dazzling record forced Li Ji to keep his expectations high.
Zhang Liang on the side saw that even Li Ji admired Fang Jun so much, and he felt very complicated. He didn't know whether it was joy, jealousy or regret...
The relationship between him and Fang Jun really started out of hatred and then came together out of profit. Love and hate were entangled and inseparable. He not only wanted Fang Jun to quickly grow into a giant tree that he could rely on, but also secretly prayed that the boy would be able to help him. I suffered a big loss, fell over and suffered a bloody head...
*****
In Chang'an City, Gwanghwamun.
The outer city of Chang'an City is also called "Luo City". The scope of the outer city is "Chang'an City" in the traditional sense. It surrounds the southeast and west sides of the imperial city and the siege city. It is longer in the east and west, slightly shorter in the north and south, and is rectangular. There are three gates on each side of the outer city. The middle part of the north side is occupied by the palace city, so the three north gates are opened to the west of the palace city, namely Gwanghwamun Gate, Jingyao Gate and Honglin Gate.
To the north of the three gates is Jinyuan Fanglin Garden. The Yongan Canal enters the city from Anhua Gate in the south of the city and passes through the city. It flows out from Jingyao Gate, flows through Fanglin Garden and then flows northward into the Wei River.
Within the Forbidden Garden, on the bank of Yong'an Canal, 20,000 Youtun guards had already crossed Yong'an Canal under the command of Gao Kan, and their troops were directed at the rebels who had arrived near Guanghua Gate. On the other side, Zan Po led 10,000 Tubo Huqi to leave the military camp near Zhongwei Bridge, and crossed all the way south, forming a cross-fertilization trend with Gao Kan's tribe, sandwiching the rebels in the middle.
The already slow-moving rebels immediately sensed the threat, stopped advancing, and stayed outside Gwanghwamun.
Yu Wenlong rode his horse and stood in the middle of the army, his white eyebrows tightly knitted under his hood. Listening to the scout's report, he looked up at the densely forested, dark and vast Royal Forbidden Garden in front of him, feeling very nervous.
It was his order to slow down the marching speed, in order to delay one step behind Changsun Jiaqing, so that Changsun Jiaqing could withstand the main firepower of the Youtun guards, and he took advantage of the gap to enter and see if he could approach Xuanwu Gate and break through Youtun. Guard camp.
But the current situation reported by the scouts is very different. Gao Kan's troops were originally stationed east of Yong'an Canal in a defensive posture, and the Tibetan Huqi at Zhongwei Bridge were only cruising in the due north direction, with more intent to intimidate than to actively attack. Perhaps, everything indicates that Changsun Jiaqing on the east road is the primary target of Youtun Guard. Once the war starts, Changsun Jiaqing will definitely be targeted.
However, the situation of the war suddenly changed.
First, Gao Kan's tribe suddenly crossed the Yong'an Canal and formed a formation with their backs against the water, looking eager to try. Then the Tubo Hu cavalry from the north began to advance westward, and then detoured southward. At this moment, they were less than twenty miles away from the Yuwen family's army.
If he continues to advance, Yu Wenlong will be surrounded by two armies, the Gaokan tribe and the Tubo Hu cavalry, one on the left and one on the right. And because the south is the outer city of Chang'an City, the Tubo Hu cavalry will directly cut off the retreat, which is equal to Yuwenlong's head. Plunging into the "urn" surrounded by two armies, the retreat was cut off, and the front and rear were attacked...
Now it is no longer a question of whether Yu Wenlong wants to advance slowly, but that he dare not stop, otherwise once the Right Tunwei abandons Changsun Jiaqing on the east road and instead attacks his road with all his strength, the situation will be very bad.
Although our own strength is more than twice that of the enemy, the strength of the Youtun Guards and the bravery of the Tubo Huqi are enough to reverse the disadvantage in strength. Once caught in the encirclement of these two armies, the army under his command may be in danger...
Yu Wenlong was cautious and did not dare to take a step forward.
However, just at this moment, Changsun Wuji’s order arrived...
"Move on?"
Yu Wenlong held his breath in his chest and angrily raised the paper with the intention of throwing it to the ground, but the generals on the left and right suddenly stopped him. Then he came to his senses, stopped and put the paper holding the military order into his arms.
He said to the captain who sent the order: "Zhao Guogong does not know what is happening on the front line and cannot estimate the dangers here. I cannot obey this order. Please inform Zhao Guogong immediately."
There is nothing wrong with the fact that you have to move forward even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead of you, but you can't bite the bullet and go for it even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead of you, right?
The commander-in-chief looked calm, cupped his fists and said: "General Yuwen, the general is not only the commander-in-chief, but also a member of the supervising team. He has the responsibility and the power to urge all generals in the army to abide by military orders and prohibitions. What the general faces Zhao Guogong was fully aware of the danger, and the reason why he went down was This military order is to prevent the east and west armies from being wary and unwilling to put pressure on the Youtun Guards, which will lead to the failure to achieve the goals set before the war. General Yuwen can rest assured that as long as he continues to press forward and remains consistent with the east army, Youtunwei will definitely lose sight of the other."
Yuwenlong's face was gloomy.
These words are a paraphrase of Changsun Wuji's words. On the surface, they sound good, but in fact, their original meaning is just four words - everyone can settle down with his destiny. (End of chapter)
