The third emperor of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 332
"Jie Li and Ana Shi Simo can be put aside for now." Yang Tong glanced at everyone and said with a smile, "Our current enemy is the Western Turkic Order Ye Hu. Everyone talk about how we can defeat him so that the He can't divide his troops to interfere in the internal affairs of Eastern/Turkic?"

Pei Xingyan, who led 2 fine horsemen, said: "Your Highness, the general thought that Brother Qin's [-] people could be used as surprise soldiers."

Yang Tong asked with a smile: "Advanced soldiers? How to avoid the eyes and ears of the Western Turks?"

Pei Xingyan is brave and good at fighting. According to history books, "every time Xingyan has an attack, he is invincible, and he is called the enemy of ten thousand people." In fact, he does have this ability. He is 26 years old this year, and he is one of the first to follow Yang Tong When Yang Tong had no one available, he served under Li Jing and shouldered the important mission of the town.

Since then, Pei Xingyan has gradually matured, and has grown step by step from a newborn young man who is not afraid of tigers to a stand-alone general with a calm temperament, very similar to the current Qin Qiong.During the Battle of Guanzhong, he was the general of the first army, and Wang Fubao suppressed Li Xiaogong in Qianshuiyuan, Beidi County, and bought precious time for Yang Tong to pacify Guanzhong.

"Let Ashina Simo lead his subordinates to continue chasing Jieli Khan to cover Brother Qin's escape from the army, and then go south along the Jinshan Mountains at night to form a pincer attack with our army against the Western Turkic camp. .”

When Pei Xingyan said this, he paused for a moment, and continued to express his own opinion: "Western Turkic has a large army of 25, and the daily food consumption is a huge figure, and within more than two hundred miles of its camp, there is no source of nourishment." , Tong Yehu Khan needs to transfer food and cattle and sheep supplies from farther away. Therefore, food is his lifeline. If he can cut off the other party's food road, then even if they will not collapse without a fight, it will cause a big panic , this task can be completely handed over to Big Brother Qin. Under such circumstances, Tong Yehu will definitely send a large army to encircle and suppress Big Brother Qin to maintain the safety of the food road. This is our army's opportunity. Of course, this is only the last general Because the general does not know the situation of Tong Yehu's food and grass allocation, and where he is going, he dare not speak unreasonably."

Yang Tong nodded, and said with a smile: "It's a very good idea. We don't know the situation of the other party's food and grass, and we don't know how the other party's food is. We can send scouts to investigate, and..." Yang Tong looked at the big golden sculpture and Daqing, Erqing, and Sanqing continued: "Besides, we have the divine eagles and eagles that can detect the enemy's military situation. Are we afraid that we will not be able to detect the enemy's food routes? As long as we can detect them, we can then prescribe the right medicine." .”

Shen Guang also praised: "The eagles and eagles are not only capable of sending messages, they are also rare helpers when fighting against the enemy. When used in military affairs, it is almost equivalent to having a few more pairs of eyes, which are faster and more accurate than scouts."

Yang Tong agreed with Shen Guang's words very much. Su Mo Mohe's tribute to taming the falcons enabled the Sui army to send messages in time during the war, and the time lag between defeating the enemy was indispensable.The golden eagle and these three sea dongqings are even more remarkable, they can send messages and detect the enemy's situation, and the Turks also use eagles to monitor the enemy. Because they hunt and kill them, the Sui army also has anti-detection, Anti-indirect ability.He immediately wrote down a briefing, and asked Ying Nu to pass it on to Qin Qiong with an ordinary eagle.

As for the Golden Eagle, Daqing, Erqing, and Sanqing, they will shoulder the mission of anti-detection and inquiring about the enemy's food supply.

Shen Guang said very seriously: "Your Highness, there is still an extremely serious problem. That is, Tong Yehu is very likely to concentrate all his forces on attacking us. He intends to defeat our army and then go to A Shi without any worries. Nasmo is in trouble."

In fact, Shen Guang's words are not difficult to understand. The Western Turks were in the most powerful and expanding period, and Tong Yehu Khan had an absolute advantage in military strength, and they were all elite forces.

Shen Guang's idea also represents a dangerous signal that is not good for the Sui army. In the situation where Jieli Khan and Ashina Simo are evenly matched and neither can do anything to the other, Tong Yehu Khan may first put the unfavorable Sui army Factors that are conducive to the stability of his rear are out of the game, because from the reality at hand, Tong Yehu Khan has the strength and courage to fight the Sui army decisively.

"This is really a problem." Pei Xingyan's expression became serious.

"If the Western Turks come to fight, let's fight. I, Da Sui, am afraid that he will fail with a small Western Turk? As long as he moves, we will be one against two, and we have a lot of strong bows and crossbows. We can teach him to be a man." Luo Shixin said proudly.

"That is to say, if the Turkic people disperse, the lethality and killing effect of the crossbow will be greatly reduced. If we fight in close quarters, our army will still not have the upper hand in numbers, and the losses will be great. I don't want a miserable victory of one thousand and eight hundred." Pei Xingyan said decisively.

Luo Shixin said unconvinced: "Loss will definitely be lost. How can there be no reason not to die in a war? But if you lose, you will gain. If you can use this to keep the Western Turkic army here! Lost this 25 army, the Western Turkic General We are unable to invade the border of the Great Sui Dynasty. At that time, we only need to send a small group of fine cavalry to sneak into the border of the Western Turks and kill them. The Western Turks will quickly decline. To put it cruelly and inhumanly, we will exchange [-] lives for the Great Sui's future,"

Pei Xingyan thought about it carefully, and felt that although Luo Shixin was arguing, he was right, because cold-blooded and ruthless is the most basic quality of a qualified general and commander. In their eyes, soldiers are pawns that can be sacrificed for the overall situation. According to Luo Shixin's Logically, 10 people seem to be worth the sacrifice.

"The important thing is that this worst outcome won't happen." Seeing that Pei Xingyan was speechless, Luo Shixin spoke very vigorously.

"Be ruthless to foreigners and benevolent to your compatriots. This is His Majesty's usual principle. Every soldier is my treasure in the Sui Dynasty. Did you sacrifice it just because you said it?" Pei Xingyan said angrily.

"I'm just talking!" Luo Shixin smiled slightly.

Pei Xingyan was furious: "Is it fun for you kid to play me? Is it itchy?"

"Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop..." Five black lines appeared on Yang Tong's forehead, and he called stop five times in one breath. I shut up."

"Here!" Luo Shixin really shut up.

"This bastard gave me a new way of thinking." Among the generals, Yang Tong actually likes Luo Shixin the most. He is about to become a father and still maintains his original nature. Now he seems to be unreasonable and ruthless. But if it comes to the battlefield, Luo Shixin is definitely the most desperate person.

Luo Shixin immediately looked at Pei Xingyan triumphantly.

Pei Xingyan didn't bother to talk to him, he has known him for almost ten years, but he still doesn't know what kind of virtue this kid is, he said to Yang Tong, "I don't know if there is any clever plan to defeat the enemy?"

"I have an idea, let's take a closer look. I plan to let Wei Yunqi divide his troops to attack the heartland of the Western Turks. The number does not need to be too many, but it must be elite! Although it will not be possible to divide some of Tong Yehu's troops, it can also stop the war. Its troops are continuously exported," Yang Tong said.

"..."

Everyone was speechless, and this was even more unreliable.

The elder Shen Guang sighed and shook his head, and said with a wry smile: "Your Highness, please forgive me for speaking bluntly. This commander Ye Hu should understand our strategy to prevent him from participating in the East/Turkic interior. He may divide his troops to attack Ashina in the near future. Simo, maybe attack us with all your strength. And the South Route Army is now attacking its heartland, and it will not be able to quench its thirst."

"Li Gui has been disabled for a long time, and he can't last much longer. After Li Gui is destroyed, the South Route Army can copy the old nest of the Western Turks from Yiwu County."

"Okay!" Shen Guang was defeated by him, and said helplessly, "Even if everything goes well for the Southern Route Army, it will take more than half a month. How can we hold back the Western Turks for so long?"

"The method is actually very simple." Yang Tong said with a smile:
Everyone was amazed.

"Our army took the initiative to attack Baili, creating the illusion of a decisive battle for Tong Yehu, and then built a large camp, allowing soldiers and horses to come in at night and day in a row, using bluff to confuse. I believe that Tong Yehu is cautious and dare not act rashly." Yang Tong also agreed. Hearing Luo Shixin and Pei Xingyan's arguing, he came up with a solution. As his thoughts gradually became clearer, Yang Tong also insisted on taking the initiative to approach the Western Turkic camp. It is strange that Khan is not paranoid.

"Our army already has one man, two horses, or even three horses! Your Highness's plan is completely feasible. But the final general hopes that His Highness will think it over carefully, because there is actually no need to rush into this battle. We can retreat for a month or two and consolidate. The army will come back to fight the Western Turks." Shen Guang said helplessly.

"I've made up my mind, so there's no need to persuade me on this matter." Yang Tong looked at Shen Guang and said with a smile, "There are too many variables in a month or two. When our army has consolidated its forces, Tong Yehu may not necessarily fight us. As long as he hides in the grassland, our tens of millions of troops can't do anything about him. If we are in a stalemate with a certain southern prince and he stabs us from the back, we will be in big trouble. We stay here like fools, Doing nothing, let alone being incapable of doing anything. Only by approaching the Western Turks can we find a fighter.”

A quarter of an hour later, the Sui army quickly assembled and approached the Jinshan Mountains in mighty form.
