Chapter 469: Penglai Sends Troops
Emperor Yang of Sui was already about to be moved by Yu Wenhua and said, but it is important to think about resisting the barbarians, but if the two Li families collude, it will be a big trouble.
Tang Guogong's abilities had been thoroughly understood from the reign of his father, and although he had not shown any ambition, he had shown too much strength after attacking the Chen Dynasty.
At that time, when he was the king of Jin, Tang Guogong was also a threat to his succession to the throne, and he wanted to fully control the imperial power, so he didn't want to have a strong man break his wrist, disintegrate or eradicate some forces, or let them out.
Originally, he wanted to attack Tang Guogong, but he didn't expect to be dodged by him.
Now Li De has 100,000 mercenaries in Youzhou City, and he has occupied the important land of the soldiers, if he really follows the methods of Yu Culture and recruits Li De into a concubine, it is reasonable that he will also have the reputation of adult beauty.
The matter of sending the princess to the local area is tantamount to recognizing Li De as a prince, once this kind of thing is done, Youzhou City in the future will really not be under the jurisdiction of the imperial court.
The biggest hidden danger is that the power of Youzhou grows, which is very likely to threaten the imperial power, as long as there is a trace of threat, it is not allowed.
Emperor Yang of Sui rejected Yu Wenhua's proposal.
"Lone question, do you have a capable general?"
Yu Wenhua understands very well in his heart, this is to let him recommend his son Yuwen Chengdu, now Yuwen Chengdu is developing very well in Shuofang, if he is sent to attack Youzhou City, he is unwilling.
Don't look at Yuwen Chengdu being said to be an invincible general, but it depends on what kind of enemy you face.
The vanguard was able to defeat 100,000 Turks with a small number of people, which was a real record, if he did not let the two sides go head-to-head.
At least not yet.
"Your Majesty, the minister thought that in the battle of Liaoshui, General Lai Hu'er was brave and good at fighting, and now he is in charge of Penglai sailors, and he can be entrusted with a heavy task from Jinjin." Yu culture and Taoism.
When Emperor Yang of Sui heard that it was not Yuwen Chengdu, he was inevitably a little unhappy.
"Come to Hu'er?" Emperor Yang of Sui thought about it, he had an impression of this person, but he was a general who could fight well, and when he heard that this person was extraordinary, he had more confidence in his heart.
"Okay, let Laihu'er bring 50,000 soldiers and horses, and bring Li De back for me to ask for the guilt." Emperor Yang of Sui said.
Yu Wenhua can only listen now, the emperor has spoken in person, he is very cautious at this time, and he will definitely not object, as for how to arrange it, it will be handed over to the people of the military department.
All he could do was stabilize the courtiers, and that was his job.
"Yes."
Lai Hu'er, is a fierce general, after several battles brave and extraordinary, is also a famous general, pacifying the Chen Dynasty has his share of the credit, and the rise is still after the gate.
In the battle of Liaoshui, Laihu'er led troops to attack Goguryeo from the waterway, and the waterway campaign was like a bamboo, and if it was not for the light enemy, he would not have been defeated if he had to attack the enemy's city.
However, in the Battle of Liaoshui, Laihu'er basically brought back all the soldiers and horses he brought back safely, and his merits were offset, and he continued to be his general.
The emperor has now appointed Laihu'er, and he has been directly promoted from the general to the general of Youyiwei to command 50,000 troops to conquer Youzhou, and this time it is a holy decree sent by someone to secretly send it.
There is no public crusade, this is also the biggest help that Yu Wenhua can do, why help Li De, in fact, is very simple.
They planned to push Li De to the forefront from the beginning, but Yu Wenhua didn't expect Li De to be so bold and bring Lanling to Youzhou.
Ang Lee was even more bold to move his family directly to Youzhou, which was directly standing on the opposite side of imperial power.
Long Yan Dayue is reasonable, but they never expected that the vanguard soldiers and horses would expand so rapidly in a short period of time, and they knew from the information of the spies that sixty percent of the 100,000 soldiers and horses of the vanguard were cavalry.
Cavalry of this size was uncommon even among the soldiers and horses of the Sui State.
Don't look at the Sui State's soldiers and horses population base, but if you talk about the team that can pull out so many cavalry at one time, there are basically a few particularly powerful ones, to say that his Yuwen family can't get so many cavalry at once.
The problem is not with the soldiers, but with the horses.
Ordinary horses are pulled by the cart at most, the training of war horses is different from that of ordinary horses, the cost of feeding is different, and the cost is very large, mainly because you have to be able to buy war horses.
The Turks were very strict about the trade management of war horses, and after all, only a few could get them, and thousands of war horses were unthinkable.
With so much cavalry combat effectiveness, there is no doubt that the cavalry itself has an advantage, and if 50,000 cavalry can defeat 100,000 infantry, in fact, the chance of success is very great.
Yu Wenji's mind was that if he wanted to defeat the vanguard, he had at least three times the number of them to be sure of victory, but even this was not necessarily.
It can only be said that there is a battle force, with Youzhou City as a barrier, maybe hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses can be taken, and the battle will definitely be a tragic victory.
Now Li De's situation has to make him bigger and stronger, so that even if this unstable opportunity is formed, it is recommended to come to Hu'er to fight, just to try whether the vanguard can stop it.
It can be regarded as a preparation for future planning.
The Yuwen family has always been very ambitious.
When the guards received the emperor's edict, it was already three days later, and it was eight hundred miles expedited, and this level of speed would only be activated when the battle situation was urgent.
The guards are rigorously trained, and there are many generals under him who can fight well, especially because he has divine power, and few people are his opponents.
So I'm a little arrogant.
"Youzhou City, let me come to the Hu'er Association to see how powerful you are as the governor of the capital."
After reading the holy decree, Lai Hu'er muttered, as the saying goes, there is no first martial arts and no second, as a general, he is a little arrogant, if he doesn't even have this arrogance, he can't bring soldiers.
Fifty thousand soldiers and horses were ordered, many of whom had to be summoned temporarily, so it took three days for the personnel to prepare, and the grain and grass were prepared in a hurry, carrying all their existing reserves.
50,000 soldiers and horses marched from Penglai by water and land at the same time.
The transportation of a large number of supplies by waterway is really fearless.
And this time the transfer of troops, there is no news from Youzhou City at all, after all, it is a secret will, and there is no announcement.
Half a month later, Hu'er's 50,000 soldiers and horses entered the border of Youzhou.
"General, the weather is getting colder and colder, we don't have enough tents with us, many soldiers haven't rested well in the past few days, and many of them are infected with wind cold."
The generals who came to Hu'er's side reacted to these situations in a timely manner, but they had already reached the boundary of Youzhou and were about to fight, and if they didn't act at this time, I am afraid the situation would be even worse.
"Take care of the infected soldiers alone, let the soldiers hold on, the front is already Youzhou City, let's defeat the vanguard and go back to celebrate the soldiers." Come to protect the child.
The routine of drum morale is like this every time, and it is not known whether it can really succeed, and morale cannot fall.
