Chapter 341 The Iron Triangle

Li Ji said to Hou Junji, "Take people to intercept Ping'ao's river channel, and then bring out a few troops to continue attacking Ping'ao City. There is no need to attack forcefully, just set fire. I want to see how long these turtle grandsons can hide!"

Hou Junji listened to Li Ji's words and asked, "I will take a few teams of troops and have been wandering around Ping'an these days."

"Those boys will let them have a good rest for a while. They shouldn't have slept peacefully these days." Li Ji looked at the map in front of him with a serious expression, "You asked the King of Goguryeo to write a manifesto in Goguryeo's words and write hundreds of articles. When the water in Ping'ao City is cut off, you can shoot it into Ping'ao City with an arrow."

"I understand." Hou Junji nodded, "First cut off their water source. When they lose their water source and the food and grass are almost consumed, their morale will be shaken. At this time, the effect of issuing a manifesto is the best."

"Go and do it." Li Ji said to Hou Junji.

"Yes!" Hou Junji stood up and left.

Hou Junji was the deputy general of this marching. This guy was not a pure general, but he was also a minister of the Ministry of War. For Li Ji, the Minister of War was just like that, and it was not enough to see him. It was not that he looked down on Hou Junji. Hou Junji, a general, also had military achievements in the wars of the previous dynasty, but among the generals in the court, Hou Junji was not favored by many generals because he took up the position of Minister of War. Once he entered the Three Provinces and Six Ministry, he was not a pure general.

More of a counselor, he had no good feelings for the guy Hou Junji, Li Ji. The generals such as Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, Yuchi Gong, and Niu Jinda were all disdainful of their position in the court. A good general should do what the general should do. After fighting and leaving the horse to Mount Zhongnan, he lived a free life. It would be a bad thing to climb up all the time, let alone Hou Junji has been clinging to the prince.

Gu Qing, Su Dingfang, and Cheng Chumo were eating voraciously in the army.

The three of them took a sip of wine and said "Ha~" in one go.

"I finally feel like I'm alive!" Su Dingfang held the wine bowl, "These days are simply not the days that people live!"

"It's not so good!" Cheng Chumo was wild. His hands were not wine bowls but jars of wine, one jar after another, "Gu Qing, you said we have fought so many battles, and we should be a general when we go back!"

"You can just pull it down." Gu Qing was eating jerky meat in his mouth. "At most, I will give you a little general. Your old man has too many military achievements, so you can't take too much. Do you know? I advise you not to get any credit when you return to Chang'an this time. The best thing is to discount it and understand it?"

"Sorry, I don't understand!" Cheng Chumo's eyes were confused.

Too lazy to explain to this guy, Gu Qing was drinking, "Lao Fang, when will you marry a wife?"

"Yes!" When talking about this topic, Cheng Chumo also became energetic, "I told you that you should look for girls like me..."

"Your mouth can't be filled with wine." Li Tai brought a few more jars of wine, "I tell you that there is only so much alcohol for you. The rest must be used as soldiers' healing, so save some drinks."

"I know, I know." Cheng Chumo smiled and took another big gulp, saving some drinks, and these four words were automatically blocked by him.

Li Tai took out a few more roasted chickens, "I made a few wild pheasants that Xue Rengui brought to you."

"Hahaha! Good guy!" Cheng Chumo took the roast chicken, "That Xue Rengui is really a good seedling, so he should practice more. Gu Qing first let you rest as his disciple and let me take him. I guarantee that you can train a general who can lead hundreds of thousands of troops."

There is no need to say much about Xue Rengui's talent. Gu Qing gave Su Dingfang a roast chicken, "It depends on his own choice. No matter who he follows, he is still my disciple."

"I think it's right." Li Tai said to the three of them, "This Xue Rengui can't do anything with anyone, he can only go with Gu Qing."

"What does it mean!" Cheng Chumo said.

"Don't be anxious first!" Li Tai said to Cheng Chumo, "Chumo, you are really good at fighting, but you don't know whether you will just rush forward blindly, right?"

"Isn't war just rushing forward?" Cheng Chumo disagreed, "Can you run away?"

Li Tai smiled bitterly. Cheng Chumo, the boy, was simple-minded and looked at Su Dingfang. "Lao Fang is really good. He has followed General Li Jing, and can advance and retreat in wars. He has the courage and strategy of Chumo, but there is only one thing that doesn't work, that is worldly."

"Talk about the worldly sensibility." Li Tai looked at everyone, "None of you is like a fish in water, right? You don't have Gu Qingguang's connections in the court, right? You don't have Gu Qing's means, right?"

"The art of war belongs to the art of war, but to be a general, how to do the best and what you do is inseparable from the word worldly style." Li Tai looked at Cheng Chumo with disdain, "Chumo, learn more from your old friends. Although your old friends are mixed, you know the general and understand it."

Li Tai looked at the three of them, but he didn't know how many people listened to. In short, Gu Qing, Su Dingfang, and Cheng Chumo, no one can do without each other. If you talk about the abilities of the major generals in the court, as long as these three people stand together, those veterans may not be opponents of these three people.

Needless to say, Gu Qing’s full use of firearms is a sharp sword to tear open the enemy. When Gu Qing tore open the enemy, a brave man like Cheng Chumo needs to tear the hole even bigger. Su Dingfang grasps the general direction and plans.

Gu Qing's deceit and the large-scale lethality of firearms, Cheng Chumo's courage and courage, and Su Dingfang's coordination and dispatch, the three complement each other. As long as three people and a team of 300,000 troops can almost wipe out any small country on the frontier of the Tang Dynasty.

What they need now is the ability to stand on their own. At Yanmen Pass, there were Cheng Yaojin and Niu Jinda, Yuchi Gong in the Hexi Corridor, and Li Jie here. After this war, it is time for them to hone themselves. The three of them will be the backbone of the military and martial arts of the Tang Dynasty in the future.

Cheng Chumo has the shadows of Cheng Yaojin and Niu Jinda, and Su Dingfang has the shadows of Li Jing and Qin Qiong. Only Gu Qing does not need to learn from others and has walked his own path.

"Fatty!" Gu Qing asked in a low voice, "You ask some people to do things."

"What's wrong?" Li Tai was puzzled.

"You ask Xue Rengui to go and hunt some prey, the bigger the prey, the better." Gu Qing smiled and said, "Fatty, do you smell the fragrance of this roast chicken?"

"Fragrant." Li Tai nodded and wondered, "What do you want to do?"

"I want to hold a barbecue conference in front of Ping'ao City!" Gu Qing wiped away the fat from his mouth, "I can't kill them now, I want to greed for them!"
