He came here to give an order, an order that Wu Zhao didn't understand.

"What did you say? Starting today, the supply of grain and grass to the northeast has been cut off?

Husband, do you know what you are doing?The front line is fighting a war of annihilation of the country, which is the supply and supplies of 30 troops. If the food and grass cannot keep up for a day, there will be great chaos in the army.

Didn't you initiate this war on your own initiative?Now why?For no reason, isn't this drastic, stabbing the front line in the back? "Wu Zhao exclaimed for a while, and angrily reprimanded Du Shaoqing.

Du Shaoqing put down the teacup, smiled and took Madam's hand to comfort him: "Of course I know, and when did I cheat my own people?

I have calculated that if we stop delivering food and grass from now on, it will not affect the battle situation. The existing food and grass are enough for the army to eat. "

The warrior said decisively: "This is impossible. Although you taught me the calculation, my husband thinks that I have already grown up. The existing food and grass are not enough. At most, it is only [-]% of the budget."

"Then did you include the battle damage?" Du Shaoqing asked rhetorically.

"Leave it alone. I visited Duke Wei. He analyzed and reasoned the strength of both sides. He felt that we had the upper hand, and the enemy would be caught off guard. The battle damage would be between [-]% and [-]%. It depends on the command of the frontline generals." .” Wu Zhao explained.

Du Shaoqing shook three fingers and said: "No, no, because I want to say that you made a mistake, and Wei Guogong also made a mistake. In my opinion, at the end of this battle, our side has lost more than half of the battle, and we have remaining strength. Up to thirty percent!"

"What? The remaining [-]%? This is impossible. Wei Guogong said that if the war loses more than half of the battle, it must be the losing side, unless we lose.

But his old man said that the chance of our failure is very small. "

Du Shaoqing didn't argue any more, but asked curiously: "Then when you visited Duke Wei, did he give any substantive suggestions on food and grass?"

This one

Wu Zhao pondered for a moment, blushed slightly and said, "Duke Wei also said that if we want to transport grain, we can do half of the original plan."

"Oh? You don't believe me, so you stick to the original plan to transport grain, right?" Du Shaoqing joked.

Wu Zhao nodded lightly and said: "He said it was because the soldiers used in this battle were barbarians, and they were bloodthirsty and easy to kill if they didn't pay attention to etiquette. Wherever they went, a large part of the supplies came from fighting to support the war, that is, burning, killing and looting supplies. itself.

this problem"

Du Shaoqing knew that it was the little girl's kindness that he couldn't bear to believe, or could not bear to imagine the tragedy of how many innocent people were slaughtered, so he put his hands on her shoulders and said: "You also experienced the Tubo War in the Southwest with me back then, and you also saw how Tubo treated us. Jiannan Dao’s injury, so Duke Wei’s eyesight is accurate.”

"But, didn't you say that the leaders of this battle are the generals of our Tang Dynasty? From the commander to the general, they are all from the Tang Dynasty. Will they let it go?" Wu Zhao still didn't believe it.

Shaking his head, Du Shaoqing said helplessly: "We can coerce and lure them to borrow troops, but when it comes time to use troops, we want our subordinates to be obedient and work hard. The same reason is to let them see the sweetness and temptation. Otherwise, my subordinates are full of soldiers who don’t work hard, not to mention destroying Goguryeo, I’m afraid they can escape faster than the main general on the battlefield.”

Wu Zhao was surprised and said: "So, the husband also supported them by fighting?"

Asking such a sentence, Wu Zhao felt that he was delusional, isn't the husband a benevolent doctor?How can you be so indifferent to life?

Chapter 515 This Daughter-in-Law Is Not Easy To Fool (Two in One)

"It's useless if I don't support it. The 10,000+ are barbarian soldiers. They grew up fighting in the autumn wind on the border and have developed the habit of looting in every battle. Don't say that I am helpless who is thousands of miles away. I am the leader of the army." The generals can't control it."

Wu Zhao rolled his eyes at her husband, and said somewhat dissatisfied: "I knew it would be like this, why did you come to use these people at the beginning? How good are our Tang soldiers, at least we won't kill innocent people indiscriminately. If you destroy the country, you will destroy the country. The local civilians How innocent?"

Du Shaoqing took Wu Zhao to sit down and comforted him: "It would be the best if you can use the soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty, but wasn't it not possible at that time?

Don't worry, in the era of territorial unification, casualties are unavoidable. When Goguryeo becomes the land of our Tang Dynasty, we treat the people there well and let them live a prosperous life. Then all the suffering now is worth it .

But I heard that under the rule of Goguryeo, the common people were in dire straits, and Yuan Gaisu was full of militarism. Every winter, countless people froze to death and starved to death, waiting for our rescue. "

I don't know if Du Shaoqing is fooling my daughter-in-law now, but I always feel that what he said is half true and half false.

How can Wu Zhao be so easy to fool?After noticing the strangeness, he found a flaw after thinking about it for a while, stood up and exclaimed: "No, don't be sloppy with me, you seem to have said just now that only 10,000% of the [-]+ barbarian soldiers who attacked Goguryeo survived this time.

It is a winner's situation to use war to support war. It is impossible to have such a large number of casualties. Husband, tell me the truth, what is your real purpose? "

what?

is it?

Did I say that?You heard it wrong, I didn't say it!

Du Shaoqing argued vaguely.

Wu Zhao took a picture of his hand and said dissatisfiedly: "You said it, don't fool me. I am solely responsible for the logistics of the rear. If you keep it from me, you can find someone to manage the chamber of commerce in the future. I will Go home and take the kids."

"Hahaha, ma'am, it seems that we need to work hard to have a baby first." Du Shaoqing laughed.

Wu Zhaoqiao blushed slightly, and immediately stared straight at Du Shaoqing, the meaning was obvious, if he didn't confess, he would not be able to pass today's test.

Well ok you win, I confess!

Du Shaoqing pressed Wu Zhao on the chair again, and said in a heavy tone: "If the 26 troops of the Tang Dynasty never take action, then the [-] barbarian soldiers have less than a [-]% chance of destroying Goguryeo. A country with nearly a million well-trained troops.

With a hastily gathered team, it is okay to carry out a sneak attack, but if you fight head-on, there is basically no chance of winning.

What's more, the soldiers and horses we borrowed have outdated weapons and single tactics, etc.

This is why I came to you today. If we want to win this war, starting today, we will stop transporting food and grass, and instead use all our manpower and material resources to transport weapons and armor. "

What? ? ?

"Send weapons? Do you still want to send weapons to help them slaughter?" Wu Zhao looked at her husband in disbelief, why did she feel more and more strange?

"When our batch of weapons was transported over, it should be the pass where they were blocked by Goguryeo and the war was frustrated. Without the support of this batch of weapons, Goguryeo would attack backhandedly.

You don't want the plan of destroying the country that we worked so hard to set up to fail in the end, do you?

Rest assured, I've thought of countermeasures to reduce civilian casualties there. "

After Du Shaoqing's persuasion, Wu Zhao finally calmed down. She is not the kind of little girl who doesn't know the overall situation but only knows how to be stalking.

"Okay, since my husband has decided, I will listen to you.

But you have to tell me how to reduce casualties. " Wu Zhao asked.

After hesitating for a while, Du Shaoqing said truthfully: "I have already sent someone to send a message, asking my third brother to inform the leaders of Khitan and other countries that during the war, Datang will accept slaves and count them by head, and the price of each slave will be clearly marked. , will be settled together with their military expenses in the end."

"You're crazy!

I really didn't expect you to be such a person?Stirring wars and killing people is not a problem, and now we even have to do slave trading. I, Wu Zhao, was blind and married a cruel, vicious and despicable person. Do you still have humanity? "

Wu Zhao was really stimulated. She lived a miserable childhood and had seen countless tragedies in Chang'an City, especially those private slaves, official slaves, etc., so she hated and hated the slaves very much.

Seeing that his wife was about to run away, Du Shaoqing panicked, thinking why is he so impatient, he hasn't finished speaking yet.

"Isn't this a curvy strategy? First use this excuse to help the local people save their lives, otherwise how can the soldiers stop the massacre on their own initiative?

After the war, even if the whole of Goguryeo is our slave, it doesn’t matter, let’s restore their status as free civilians in one sentence, not only take down the country, but also clean up the hearts of the people, wouldn’t it be the best of both worlds? "
