Chapter 539 Setting Up Camps (Second Update, Please Subscribe)

Li Yuan's idea is very firm, if he doesn't succeed, he will succeed.

After expressing his position, Li Yuan looked at Li Shimin with burning eyes, and asked, "Daxing is in a dire situation now, Shimin, what are your thoughts and countermeasures when you come back from Luoyang?"

Although Li Yuan had made up his mind, he still wanted to hear Li Shimin's opinion.

Li Shimin thought for a while, then said seriously: "Nowadays the world is in chaos, the imperial court no longer exists, and my father's occupation of Daxing is the meaning of occupying the world and being the center of the world."

"So if the father wants to achieve the career of king and hegemony, Daxing must not be lost. These principles, the father must understand, will gather heavy troops in Daxing, and want to fight the enemy to the death."

Li Yuan nodded slowly. If it wasn't for the ambition in his heart, how could he hold the determination to die? He was unwilling to return to Daxing in despair. If the enemy really wanted to advance to Daxing, let's decide the winner here!
Li Shimin nodded, and said: "The coalition army has many soldiers and horses, but on the battlefield, no matter how many soldiers and horses there are, they are not as brave as the soldiers. The coalition army does not need to be afraid, the only one that needs attention is Yan Yun's Xiaolong army."

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Li Yuan's eyes flashed, he naturally knew about Xiaolong Army.

If it weren't for the Xiaolong army's night attack on Tongguan, how could Tongguan, which was heavily defended, be so easily breached?

Li Shimin continued: "This Xiaolong army is strong. If you order soldiers to fight against it, even hundreds of thousands of elites can't do anything about it. The only thing my father can use is to stick to the city."

"However, the enemy army is coming in menacingly. If we only defend Daxing City, we will inevitably fall into a passive position and let the enemy army do whatever they want. I'm afraid it will be difficult to accomplish anything. In the opinion of the people of the world, my father can set up a camp outside the city."

"Sending a large army to garrison can not only guard against the enemy, but also avoid field battles with the Xiaolong army. There is a city wall to ease the situation, and the cavalry has no advantage. It can be the first line of defense for Daxing City."

Li Yuan listened carefully to Li Shimin's words, nodded his head and said: "Shimin's words are reasonable, the Yanyun Xiaolong army is indeed terrifying, if we don't prepare more, I'm afraid I will become a trapped beast waiting to fight."

"Looking for a suitable place outside the city, setting up a camp line of defense, and setting up more traps and horse-repelling posts can indeed ease the pressure on the city. It can be used for fighting or retreating."

After thinking about it, Li Yuan had an answer in his heart. What Li Shimin said was indeed pertinent. Now that the enemy army was about to kill him, Li Yuan was unwilling to give up a chance.

After a little consideration, Li Yuan asked Li Shimin again: "The matter of the camp needs to be arranged as soon as possible. I wonder if you have a suitable candidate in your mind, Shimin, to ensure the safety of the camp."

Li Shimin thought for a while, then said in a deep voice: "If my father wants my ministers to recommend candidates, then Li Jing is very clever and can often see the enemy's trajectory. My father can use this person as a general."

Hearing this, Li Yuan seemed a little surprised, and asked, "This Li Jing is indeed quite talented, but Shimin, why do you value him so much? After all, he is going to Luoyang..."

Seeing Li Yuan's silence, Li Shimin smiled slightly, he naturally understood what Li Yuan meant.After all, not only did Li Jing not make any achievements in this trip to Luoyang, but he also lost a lot.

But this will not affect Li Shimin's relationship with Li Jing, because after the conversation between the two parties, Li Shimin has already determined that Li Jing's achievements in the future must be extraordinary, and he may be a minister of pillars.

Since Li Jing is so good, Li Shimin will naturally want to invest in him. Now that the coalition forces are attacking, it is not only a big challenge, but also a big opportunity to show Li Jing's talent.

I went to Luoyang before because of many accidents, not only did not show Li Jing's ability, but also made Li Yuan look down on him. Li Jing was unwilling, and Li Shimin did not want him to be dusted.

"To be honest with my father, my son met Li Jing in Luoyang, and discussed with him the strategy of confronting the enemy. There is no error in it. If the Xiaolong army is not too strong, there will not be many changes."

"If the father trusts his son, he will use Li Jing again to test his talents. Now the great prosperity is at stake. Once an accident happens, there will be no chance of a comeback. We must be cautious." Li Shimin looked at Li Yuan and said in a deep voice.

Li Yuan was silent for a short time, then suddenly made up his mind, and said solemnly: "That's fine, as father, I know that Li Jing is an extremely talented person. Since you trust Shimin so much, as father, I will give him a chance."

"If Daxing can really be kept after the war, as a father, I will never be stingy with rewards. This is a battle of life and death. If I lose the battle, I am afraid no one in my Li family will be spared." Li Yuan said sadly.

Now that he has chosen this path, even if Li Yuan regrets it, there is nothing he can do. All he can do now is to move forward and do his best to defend Daxing City and win this battle.

Of course, although Li Yuan was going to give Li Jing a chance, it was impossible for him to put Daxing's life and death in his hands.

Li Jing was sent by Li Yuan to build a camp outside the city. Although he is the main general, he also has veteran lieutenants under Li Yuan's command to prevent Li Jing from suddenly taking the lead and causing the entire battle situation to collapse.

Li Jing, who got this opportunity, was naturally very happy, he knew that it had something to do with Li Shimin.While being grateful, he also made up his mind to do his best to stick to Daxing.

……

Before the coalition forces approached Daxing, Li Yuan did not relax in the slightest. All parties planned and arranged, but they did not want to give the enemy too many opportunities to take advantage of.

The precedents of Sishuiguan and Tongguan have already made Li Yuan [-] points on guard.If Daxing is given another hand, then he basically doesn't have to play, and settles the settlement by himself.

At this moment, Luo Cheng also came from Luoyang with his troops.

Unlike Li Shimin, Luo Cheng marched in no rush.Now that he is taking the initiative, there is no need to worry too much at all, and it is also for the sake of safety that he maintains a certain combat power during the march.

It would be embarrassing if the enemy suddenly came back with a carbine and attacked when the army was exhausted.Although the possibility of this matter is extremely small, no one can be sure before it happens.

In this way, Luo Cheng arrived at Tongguan.

It was precisely because Tongguan was breached that Li Shimin chose to rush back to help, and Li Yuan was so anxious and panicked.There is no doubt about the role of this checkpoint in Daxing, and the role played by the Xiaolong army is not insignificant.

Looking at this precipitous level, Luo Cheng smiled easily, and said: "When we arrive at Tongguan, we will be able to reach Daxing after a few days of marching. I don't know how Li Yuan is preparing at this moment."

Xu Maogong, who was beside Luo Cheng at the moment, said: "I'm afraid Li Yuan never thought that the survival of the great prosperity depends on his thoughts. If he retreats in fear of the battle, no one can blame him."

Luo Cheng nodded and said: "If Li Yuan really has the determination to fight to the death, he will definitely not be able to win this time alone, and it will take a long-term plan."

"But if Li Yuan voluntarily gave up on Daxing, it's no wonder Luo Cheng accepted it. After all, everyone in this world is coveting it, but in the end it depends on one's ability to succeed."

Luo Cheng's tone was light and calm, but Xu Maogong felt Luo Cheng's determination from it, as if the world was already under Luo Cheng's control, and the heroes were just a foil.
