Chapter 100: Tian Shelang in the Morning
After this thought popped up in my mind, I couldn't stop it anymore.
Gao Yang didn't know whether that person's words were reliable or not, but at this time, she felt that she would give it a try. She couldn't bear to see the embarrassing situation of the third brother, and maybe she wanted to verify how good Li Sanlang's words were.
Just when Li Ke was speechless, Gao Yang said.
"Since today is a family dinner, the emperor's brother asked about the plan to pacify Liao, and the emperor's sister wanted to say a few nonsense, even if it was throwing bricks and attracting jade."
This attracted everyone's attention.
Who doesn’t know that Gao Yang likes hunting and is romantic by nature? But who has ever heard that Gao Yang still understands this military and national affairs and military strategy?
It's strange.
Li Zhi's eyes turned to Gao Yang, thinking about something. He knew that Gao Yang had always had a good relationship with the King of Wu. Maybe Gao Yang came out to make trouble and help the King of Wu.
Hearing this, he frowned slightly, "I didn't expect that Shiqi Niang also has the strategy of Ping Liao, let's talk about it."
Gao Yang stood up with a smile, "I said first that my strategy is not something I thought of. It was something that a man named Li Sanlang told me. I remembered a little, so I borrowed flowers to offer Buddha."
Li Zhi was surprised, Li Sanlang, was he the third emperor's brother Wangke of Wu?
He looked at Li Ke, but found that Li Ke also looked confused, as if this was not the case.
At this time, Gao Yang had already started talking.
Gao Yang stood there, with a leisurely expression, neither anxious nor slow, and told her about the strategy of pacifying Liao that Li Xiao had told her by the Lanxi River.
What is the merit of fighting Liao that can be won over a day and a night? What is the best way to destroy Goguryeo, it is better to fight from south to north rather than from west to east. It is also particularly pointed out that if you destroy Goguryeo, you must lead the Khitan and Silla as the vanguard. To destroy Goguryeo, you must first defeat Baekje.
After saying something, the hall was silent.
The eyes of a group of royal family members who originally wanted to watch the fun changed unknowingly, especially some of the more knowledgeable people. After hearing what Gao Yang said, they even felt enlightened.
Whether it was the two emperors of the Sui Dynasty who conquered Liao five times, or the Taizong of this dynasty personally conquered Goguryeo, and the subsequent attacks, although the Central Plains also had the strategy of advancing sea and land, they were actually dominated by land, especially the route from west to east.
But now, Gao Yang's strategy to conquer Liao was from south to north, especially the idea that if you want to destroy Goguryeo, you must first seize Baekje, which is a big surprise.
But when you think about it carefully, it makes sense.
After a long time, Li Zhi sighed long.
The expression on his face became solemn.
Although he had never fought or brought troops, he had discussed with the prime ministers and generals in the court all day long and had a clearer understanding of the situation in Goguryeo.
Before, everyone was thinking about the old ideas from the past, and they fought from west to east, and on the sea, they only sent a side troop to restrain the Goguryeo people and harass them.
I really never thought about destroying Baekje first.
Although this also requires taking the sea route first, it is different from the past sea attack. In the past, he went directly to Goguryeo, but this time Gaoyang said that he would attack Baekje first by taking the sea route.
Baekje is not Goguryeo, but an ally of Goguryeo, and it is very weak now. Especially when Gao Yang said that if the Tang Dynasty attacked Baekje, Silla could also provide food, grass and equipment support and military assistance.
If you are surprised and attack them unprepared, you really have a great hope to destroy Baekje first. What is the biggest benefit of destroying Baekje?
It was the Tang Dynasty that laid a sharp knife behind Goguryeo, and even had a solid offensive base that could send troops from the sea to continuously. In this way, the Liaodong defense line that Goguryeo spent hundreds of years to operate, especially the Liaodong Thousand Mile Great Wall defense line that it operated in recent decades, was completely useless.
High, really high.
"A good plan, why didn't you think of this before? If you want to destroy Goguryeo, you must first destroy Baekje. Defeat Baekje, and then attack from south to north. But you can destroy Goguryeo in one fell swoop. Good, very good, this plan is really a wonderful plan. It's not obvious that the King of Wu can have such a good plan, but he has refused to say, King of Wu, you are too humble."
King Li Ke of Wu was also thinking about how Gao Yang would have such a good plan. He understood military strategies, so he naturally realized the cleverness of this strategy at once, in fact, it was to avoid the real and attack the virtual.
Avoid the Liaodong defense line that the Goguryeo people worked hard to manage, and directly hit Goguryeo's anus, which was fatal.
Just changing the attack target of sea-rail troops as a partial division in the past is completely different. In the past, the attack of Goguryeo Pyongyang was the one who attacked Goguryeo with the purpose of restraining and harassing. This time, the target was the south saying that the attack on Baekje in the southeast was to first cut off one of Goguryeo's arm and at the same time gaining an important offensive stronghold.
He was still thinking about who came up with this good plan. When he heard the emperor call him his name, he said it was his plan.
He was surprised and remembered that Gao Yang said that this was what Li Sanlang told her just now. He didn't know that the Li Sanlang that Gao Yang said was talking about him, but he knew that he had never said this, and he had never thought of such a good plan.
If you agree at this time, you are impostors.
He hesitated for a moment, and finally shook his head.
"Your Majesty, Gao Yang said that this good strategy was told by Li Sanlang, but this Li Sanlang is not a minister. I also want to know who Li Sanlang is who came up with this good strategy."
Li Zhi was very surprised.
This Li Sanlang is really not Wang Ke of Wu. Who is that? Gao Yang thought it out by himself, and then pretended that it was Wang Ke of Wu who told her, but Wang Ke of Wu didn't appreciate it.
He is becoming more and more interested.
He asked Gao Yang with a smile, "Seventeenth Lady, how dare you ask this Li Sanlang, which family is this?"
Gao Yang turned his head and looked at the King of Wu and turned around.
"This Li Sanlang is indeed not the King of Wu. In fact, Your Majesty must have known this person. Previously, General Xue, the right-leading general, presented a secret recipe for frosting and sugar to His Majesty. The owner of the secret recipe was Li Sanlang." Gao Yang reminded the emperor, "He is Li Xiao in Lantian. Later, Your Majesty also issued a special order to grant him the sixth rank of Shaofu Temple officials, and rewarded him with gold, silver, silk and fields."
"Oh, you are talking about him. I remembered that this is indeed the case. Unexpectedly, Li Sanlang could have such a good plan to pacify Liao? Gao Yang, how did you know him? Is he really just a Tianshelang?"
"Your Majesty, don't underestimate this fielder. The emperor has heard a five-character poem he made."
Li Zhi became more interested now, "He can also write poetry, so let's talk about it quickly."
"Be a farmer in the morning and ascend to the emperor's hall in the evening. Generals and ministers have no seeds, so men should be self-reliant."
After reading the poem, it was silence again.
However, compared with the good plan to pacify Liao just now, this poem was not surprising. After all, in the eyes of the emperor, although poetry represents talent, it is only a small path. It is not like poetry that truly governs the country and pacify the world.
Li Zhi slapped his legs and exclaimed.
"I am really curious about this Li Xiao and want to meet you."
Wu smiled beside him and said, "Since this Li Sanlang wrote a poem about being the Chaoshelang and climbing to the Emperor's Hall in the evening, why don't Your Majesty summon him to the palace and summon him to the Emperor's Hall in person?"
