Datang: Let you supervise the country and become an emperor through the ages

Chapter 158 Special Forces
Under Li Shimin's strong aura, Li Jing, Yuchi Jingde and the others finally agreed with hesitation, and stopped entangled in this issue.

"Jingde, you go back first, after a month, go to the Ministry of War and see for yourself." Li Shimin smiled meaningfully and looked at Yuchi Jingde, "But if you train it for me by then, it won't be the strongest in Tang Dynasty Mo Dao Shou, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"Your Majesty, please rest assured that as long as you have the Mo Dao, I will definitely create the strongest army in the Tang Dynasty!" Yuchi Jingde promised, patted his chest, and then he smiled and bowed his hands to leave.

"Duke Wei, Duke Ying, why did you come so early?" Li Shimin turned his head at this time, looked at Li Jing and Li Ji, and asked knowingly.

"Your Majesty!" Li Jing stepped forward and cupped his hands, "I dare to ask you what is the meaning of the special operations and beheading operations you wrote on the royal memorial? I can't figure it out, please ask Your Majesty to explain it!"

Li Ji also came forward at this time, looking at Li Shimin with longing eyes.

Li Shimin smiled faintly when he heard the words, "That's why you are famous generals who have led troops for decades, why can't you understand what I wrote so clearly? Could it be that the battles you usually fight are not your own call taxi?"

Li Shimin pretended to be successful, Li Jing and Li Ji were ashamed, they didn't dare to say anything, they could only lower their heads and let Li Shimin teach them a lesson.

Seeing the two famous generals of the Tang Dynasty who are invincible when military strategy is mentioned on weekdays, facing their own reprimands, they dare not make the slightest retort, Li Shimin's vanity was instantly satisfied, and then he told them .

"Special operations, as the name suggests, use special methods to conduct targeted operations against the enemy."

"Special operations are mainly reflected in the use of our army's superior arms, such as the fierce soldiers who are good at assassination and spying on the enemy, and let them gather and form teams to go deep into the enemy's rear and carry out a series of tactical or strategic operations."

"This kind of tactical and strategic action is not limited to spreading rumors, disturbing the hearts of the people, assassinating the enemy's general, etc. Anything that can cause an irreversible blow to the enemy can be collectively referred to as special operations!"

Li Shimin's words were so impactful that Li Jing and Li Ji's eyes widened instantly.

They didn't expect that there are only four words of special operations, and there is so much knowledge contained in them.

Of course, they knew very well that what Li Shimin said was actually understood by themselves, and they had even used it in previous wars.

But the problem is that they have never thought about presenting these things in a complete and systematic way. From this, Li Jing and Li Ji's intentions for Li Shimin became clear when they thought about it carefully.

Originally, they all thought that their strategic approach to Goguryeo was absolutely superior to all the current military personnel in Datang, but now it seems that His Majesty the Emperor is the one who understands best!
"Then may I ask Your Majesty, what does the decapitation refer to?" Li Ji hurriedly asked the next question.

"The act of beheading should not just be taken literally, you have to break it down and look at it!" Li Shimin stood tall.

"Beheading means killing. Who should you kill? Naturally, it is the head. The head is not just the head. It specifically refers to the head of the enemy's chief figure or general!"

"Use a capable special team to carry out precise strikes on the enemy, and kill the opponent's leader or their ruler first before the decisive battle, so as to completely destroy the enemy's will to resist."

"Don't you yourselves always say that to capture the thief first, capture the king, and hit the snake within seven inches? That's what the beheading operation means!"

Hiss... Li Jing and Li Ji gasped when they heard the words, as if enlightened, their eyes suddenly lit up.

But soon Li Jing objected, "Your Majesty, this strategy is indeed novel, but it may not be easy to achieve it."

"If our army attacks Goguryeo, doesn't that mean that our army will first kill the head of the King of Goguryeo?"

"The king of Goguryeo is far away from the capital of Goguryeo, thousands of miles away from the border. How can this be killed?"

Li Shimin laughed when he heard this, "That's why I wrote special operations and beheading operations in the memorial to you, but these words must be read together."

"To fight against Goguryeo, we first dispatched fierce soldiers who are good at assassination and heart attack, and went deep into the territory of Goguryeo. While spreading rumors and confusing the hearts of the soldiers, we made all kinds of sabotage. Anything that can cause riots between the army and the people of Goguryeo can be done."

"Then, while Goguryeo is attracting attention, send elite assassins or dead soldiers to go deep into the enemy's capital at any cost and kill the King of Goguryeo."

"As long as King Goguryeo dies, Goguryeo will be in chaos, and our army will be able to destroy Goguryeo in one go!"

Li Shimin made Li Jing and Li Ji stunned here. They really never thought of using such means to deal with Goguryeo, but after careful consideration, Li Shimin's strategy was really effective.

The purpose is clear and not too difficult. It does not require many people to implement it. Even if it fails, it will not affect the overall battle situation. It is indeed a good method.

"Your Majesty is truly amazing. We couldn't think of such a clever plan. After His Majesty's reminder, it just made me realize, admire, admire!"

"Using special operations and beheading operations is more effective than the time-consuming and labor-intensive push of the army, and once successful, our army will be like a broken bamboo, greatly reducing unnecessary losses!"

Li Jing and Li Ji were amazed. At this moment, the image of Li Shimin in their eyes instantly became taller.

Li Shimin also accepted it openly, and then said: "Now, the strategy has been told to you, how to use it is up to you, I won't talk about the details, you will be the leader at that time, don't let me down. "

"Your Majesty will live up to your Majesty's entrustment!" Li Jing and Li Ji agreed with a bang, with excitement on their faces.

"Okay, if that's the case, then I will order you to select a thousand soldiers with excellent martial arts and courage from the army, form an army, and let you practice it yourself, as the candidates for the beheading operation against Goguryeo." Li Shimin ordered again.

"Observe the order!" Li Jing and Li Ji agreed one after another, and they were already gearing up, with expressions of eagerness on their faces.

Li Jing suddenly thought of a question, "By the way, Your Majesty, after these thousand soldiers have been selected and formed into an army, what should we call this army? Please give your Majesty a name here!"

Li Shimin heard the words, suddenly thought of the name in Li Fu's heart, and blurted out: "Special forces, they are called special forces!"
