Chapter 96 A fierce general means hiding when the opponent is fierce.When the other party has no strength, I will be fierce.

Therefore, in the law of employing troops, don't face high hills, turn your back on hills and don't turn against them, pretend to be north and don't follow them, sharp soldiers don't attack, bait soldiers don't eat them, return troops don't stop them, besiege divisions must be blocked, and poor invaders don't force them. Do not attack sharp soldiers. The "sharp" in "sharp soldiers do not attack" and the previous "sharp" in "vigorous, daytime lazy, and evening qi return" have the same meaning, avoid their sharpness and attack their lazy return.When the enemy's vigor is at its peak, avoid him, endure him for a while, wait until he is over excited, hungry, thirsty, tired, tired, and tired, then fight again.

It's still healing. This is Tang Taizong Li Shimin's strength. I have learned from his example of fighting against Dou Jiande before, which is "Don't attack the sharp soldiers, but attack the lazy ones".Learn two more today. Let's look at beating Liu Wuzhou first, it's the same way. Liu Wuzhou was originally a general of the Sui Dynasty. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the world was in chaos, so he rebelled, proclaimed himself emperor, and received foreign aid from the Turks. ) and fled, all the lairs of the Li Yuan Group were occupied by him.The east of the Yellow River belongs to Liu Wuzhou.

Li Yuan was frightened by his beating, and said: "The thieves are so powerful that it is difficult to compete with them. It is better to abandon the east of the river and stick to the west of the Guanxi." Li Shimin said: "Taiyuan is the foundation of the king's industry and the foundation of the country; The capital of the city. If you take it away and abandon it, the officials will steal and resent you." He took the initiative to invite Ying, and personally led 30,000 elite soldiers to defeat Liu Wuzhou and restore Taiyuan. This is the battle of Bobi. Li Shimin led his army across the Yellow River on solid ice, and confronted Song Jingang, general of Liu Wuzhou's army, at Baibi.Li Shimin and Li Daozong climbed up to observe, and asked Li Daozong: "The enemy has many soldiers and invites me to fight. What do you think?"

Li Daozong replied: "A group of thieves is unstoppable. It is easy to count and bend, but it is difficult to fight hard." Li Shimin said, we two thought of getting together, "King Kong's army went deep, and elite soldiers and fierce generals gathered together. Therefore, Wu Zhou ruled Taiyuan, relying on King Kong as a cover, and the army had no savings. It was profitable to fight quickly with captives and plunder. I Guan Ningrui tried to frustrate his front, and divided his troops to attack his confidantes. He ran out of supplies, so he should flee. We should wait for this opportunity, and it is not appropriate to fight quickly."

"Sharp soldiers do not attack".At this time, Song Jingang's vigor was at its peak.Li Shimin endured with him for five full months without fighting, but sent troops to harass him and cut off his food supply.King Kong's food was exhausted, and his vigor was gone, so he had to retreat. As soon as he retreated, Li Shimin "beat him to return home" and chased him fiercely. He chased two hundred miles a day and night and fought eight battles. The Tang army was not disarmed for three days and had no food for two days. Let everyone rest and rest, and wait until the soldiers and food are ready before fighting.Li Shimin said, I have thought through it a long time ago, keep chasing, keep fighting, and this battle will completely defeat him!Continue to pursue, seize Song Jingang's main force, and annihilate them in one battle.Seeing that the general situation was over, Liu Wuzhou abandoned Taiyuan City and fled to the Turks, where he was soon killed by the Turks.The regime of Liu Wuzhou perished.

Li Shimin's conquest of Xue Rengao (gao) is still the same. Xue Rengao has more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, and the soldiers are sharp.Li Shimin still uses the same trick, don't attack the sharp soldiers.The generals called for battle, and Li Shimin ordered: "Those who dare to speak up and fight will be killed!" After more than 60 days of stalemate, Xue Rengao ran out of food.When there was no food, some of the subordinates began to surrender, because there was no food here, but there was no food there. Li Shimin saw that the enemy's morale had been lost, and he said, "It's time to fight."

First send out bait soldiers to lure out those who still have fighting spirit in the enemy army, and then vent their remaining spirit. So Liang Shi, the general manager, was sent to divide the troops to Qianshuiyuan to set up a camp.Xue Rengao's fierce general, Zong Luohu (hou), had always been arrogant and fierce. He couldn't fight for two months, and he was about to explode. He tried his best to attack Liang Shi.Liang Shijian couldn't get out of the wall, and continued to exhaust him, Zong Luohou attacked even more urgently. Li Shimin and Zong Luohu's sharp energy were all exhausted, and they personally led the army into the battlefield, defeating Zong Luohu.As soon as Zong Luohu retreated, he chased and beat Xue Rengao all the way to the city of Xue Rengao, and mobilized an army to surround him.Xue Rengao was frightened, and Kaesong surrendered.Li Shimin escorted him to Chang'an and beheaded him.

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, heroes emerged in large numbers. Li Mi, Dou Jiande, and Liu Wuzhou were all great people.It's a pity that a once-in-a-thousand-year super fierce man, Li Shimin, has been cleaned up. Li Shimin can fight, mainly because he knows when not to fight.Li Shimin is the fiercest, because he knows to hide when the opponent is fierce.When the other party has no strength, he will be fierce.And he didn't fight a second battle, and he cleaned it up once, and he would never forget it.
