Chapter 316: A Good Day to Ascend the Throne

Fang Xuanling laughed, Yang Tong was really powerful, and he guessed his thoughts at once: "Li Liang's strength is weak, and he doesn't have much to do with the big family, and if he is destroyed, the southern princes don't react much." Moreover, if he is destroyed, the Silk Road can be restarted, so that the imperial court will have more money. ”

"Where's Tuyuhun?" Yang Tong asked: "This seems to be a hard bone, not easy to gnaw." ”

Fang Xuanling said with a smile: "This is going to ask Yang Servant to shoot." ”

Yang Gongren is not only knowledgeable, but also familiar with military books, can also get on the horse to kill the enemy, a horse lance also dances vigorously, although he can not take the head of the general in the army, but he is also a strong general, when he was young, he was the most outstanding son of the royal family, there is no one.

Later, Yang Gongren served as Zhangye Taishou, with outstanding political achievements, and personally led the troops to level many robbers and robbers, because of the merit transferred to the court as a servant of the Ministry of Officials, when Yang Xuangan rebelled, Yang Guang transferred the four-way army to exterminate Yang Xuangan, the first road Yuwenshu, the second road Qu Tutong, the third road to protect the child, the fourth road is Yang Gongren, Yang Gongren defeated the rebels in Poling, and then pursued with Qu Tutong to Ruxiang, captured Yang Xuangan, Yang Jishan brothers, because of the merit into the right doctor, Yang Guang praised him again and again: "I heard that when the battle of the Broken Tomb, you fought desperately, and your merit was high. I only knew that you were law-abiding, but I didn't know that you were so brave in battle. Prime Minister Su Wei sighed: "The benevolent must have courage, and sincerity is not false." ”

Moreover, in Yang Guang's battle against Tuyuhun, he also won more than he lost, so he was known as a representative of Confucian generals.

Only Yang Gongren participated in the battle of Tuyuhun in the seat, and he had the most say on the issue of Tuyuhun, he pondered for a while, and said: "In the fourth year of the Great Cause, in order to complete the mission of Emperor Wu to pass through the Western Regions and contain Tuyuhun, Pei Ju was ordered to command Gao Che to attack Tuyuhun, and Tuyuhun asked for help from my Great Sui. Emperor Wu took the opportunity to send troops and destroyed Tuyuhun in the following year. ”

Everyone: "......"

Yang Dongqi said: "How did you fight Gu Hun back then? ”

"It's similar to how His Highness dealt with the Turks, pursuing a policy of extermination. After defeating Tuyuhun, he occupied thousands of miles of land, and then established four counties of Heyuan, Xihai, Jimo, and Shanshan, and sent troops and officials to garrison them. Tugu Hun was born in the alpine region, it is already difficult to reproduce, and after experiencing the devastating blow of Emperor Wu, he has not recovered his vitality so far! It's just that Tugu Hun healed his scars and forgot the pain, and when he saw my Great Sui civil strife, he began to be restless, not only supporting the Xue brothers' money and food, but also directly sending the army to participate. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Gongren immediately said that Tuyuhun was quite ambitious, and they participated in the Great Sui Civil War, and they had a very dismissive attitude towards the Great Sui. He also said that the current world is not the past, and resting on one's laurels will only fall behind, and that the country should open its doors to foreign lands and resume business with other countries, so as to promote its own development. For the future of the Great Sui, the Silk Road must also be restarted. Where Tuyuhun is located, the main road of the Silk Road can be cut off with just one charge, and this is also the fundamental reason why Yang Guang calculated Tuyuhun and almost wanted to destroy his clan. Judging from Tuyuhun's recent performance, if it is allowed to develop, within five years, Tuyuhun will surely become the biggest cancer on the Silk Road. And suggested that Yang Tong kill the weakened Tuyuhun again when there was no internal war here.

Yang Tong was also greatly impressed when he heard it, he knew that after more than ten years of Tuyuhun, he would become one of Li Tang's great enemies, and Li Shimin's first battle in the Western Regions was to annihilate Tuyuhun.

If Tuyuhun is given the opportunity to develop, more than ten years later, the "old thing" will be repeated!

Yang Tong does not need to exterminate the Tuyuhun tribe, just bomb them to the southern Tibetan area, the powerful Tubo has not yet appeared, the current Tibetan area has Tubo, the daughter country, Subi, Yangtong, Bailan, Dangxiang, vassal country, Jialiangyi, Baoji and other tribes in the slave society, everyone goes their own way, and the fight is endless, and one more semi-feudal and semi-slave society and half-crippled Tuyuhun enters it, which may be able to delay the unification of Tubo.

"Our strategic goal for the next few years is to sweep the surrounding alien race around." Speaking of this, Yang Tong glanced at everyone, and then said: "Only without external troubles can we let go of everything and fight with the domestic princes, even if we really fall into a protracted war, we don't have to worry about foreign invasion and threatening the rear." I don't want the Great Sui to be like the Northern Zhou and Northern Qi, when fighting a civil war, they have to devote half of their energy to guarding against foreign races. In all wars, intelligence comes first, and this task is in charge of the 'Black Ice Platform', so be sure to get to the bottom of all the alien races around the Great Sui, and don't miss it because a small tribe is inconspicuous. At the same time, I sorted out the grievances of all ethnic groups, and I didn't want to put on the desk a dry hard piece of information. ”

"Whoa!" Ling Jing responded awe-inspiringly.

"Tuyuhun still has a problem that kills people!"

"What's the problem?"

Hearing Yang Gongren say this, everyone became serious.

Yang Gongren said very distressedly: "To put it simply, it is not adapted, and my Central Plains people will cause pain, palpitation, shortness of breath, loss of appetite, fatigue, fatigue, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, abdominal distention, diarrhea, chest pain, insomnia, dizziness, drowsiness, dizziness, numbness of hands and feet, convulsions and other symptoms of water and soil adaptation. As a result, the morale collapsed, and many people died in their sleep, unconsciously, which was very terrible. ”

When Yang Tong heard this, his face became serious, he knew that Yang Gongren was talking about altitude sickness, and in the sitting, no one knew better than him how great the impact of altitude sickness on ancient wars was. Even in the twentieth century, this altitude sickness could not be well controlled. Even those with strong military qualities such as those of the 'Hong' army are not good.

The Tang Dynasty was seriously ill-prepared for the plateau climate, and only then did it have four major defeats in the battle with Tibet, namely the Battle of Dafeichuan, the Battle of Qinghai, the Battle of Surohan Mountain, and the Battle of Yinzhijia River.

In the Battle of Dafeichuan, more than 100,000 troops of the Tang Dynasty were wiped out; In the Battle of Qinghai, eight or nine out of ten Tang troops were killed and almost wiped out; In the Battle of Surohan Mountain, more than 100,000 Tang troops were defeated, and in the Battle of Yinzhijiahe, 200,000 Tang troops were annihilated.

It is worth mentioning that these places are all located on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, although the strength of Tibet is also one of the reasons for the defeat of the Tang army, but the existence of the plateau climate is indeed a nightmare for the Tang army.

In general, in the battle between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo, the Tang Dynasty won more and lost less, but because of altitude sickness, they all won small victories and could not achieve a brilliant result. Therefore, after being reminded by Yang Gongren, Yang Tong must stop this kind of thing from happening.

Seeing everyone's ugly faces, Yang Tong said: "The only way to deal with the water and soil is to adapt." Now that the two counties of Xihai and Heyuan are under the control of our Great Sui, we can send troops to garrison them, and within half a year, the soldiers will adapt to the climate there. As long as this natural problem is overcome, what ability can a crippled Tuyuhun have to stop the Great Sui Iron Cavalry that dominates the world? ”

"Wonderful!"

Everyone applauded, Tuyuhun is not an enemy of the Great Sui now, send the army up, they will not take the initiative to attack, if they really attack when the Sui army is weak, it is a big deal to withdraw, and then change the place to adapt.

"Your Highness is thoughtful, and the minister fully agrees." Wei Yunqi, the secretary of the military department, got up and proposed: "Our army is mostly an army based on the plains, and large-scale operations are naturally not a problem, but when it comes to special areas, it will not be able to play its due level, and different types of troops must be trained in different terrains at all!" ”

"For example, there are many and steep and abnormal Bashu mountains, the conventional army and the conventional combat mode can't play a role there, and the cavalry that can be called the sharp weapon of the Great Sui can't play a role, and if there is a war in the future, the treacherous terrain of Bashu makes it difficult for our army to move an inch! It is very necessary to train the army in the hands of Su Dingfang and Xue Wanjun into agile heroes who are proficient in mountain warfare and jungle warfare, so as to prepare them for future use. ”

"Wei Shangshu's suggestion is very good! Very timely! It is also very necessary for the military department to immediately give an order to the given party and Wanjun, so that they can change the previous training method to the mountain and jungle combat method, and the training method needs to be explored by them. At the same time, let them send fine crops to Shu to collect as much as possible the detailed topography of Bashu, as well as the general climate. ”

"Whoa!"

"In addition, every dangerous fortress is sent to lurk in with loyal and credible personnel, and the number of personnel is arranged by the size of the city, and this task is still handed over to the 'Black Ice Platform' to lay out."

"Whoa!"

"Your Highness! Bashu is mountainous, the road is difficult and dangerous, and the long weapon is not conducive to combat, and when turning, even because of hitting the mountain wall, and pushing himself down the cliff, the minister thought that he could develop some special short blades, as well as climbing equipment. Jiang Xingben, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, got up and suggested.

Since it is a special class of troops with special terrain, how can it be missing special equipment? My own group of strategists, all of them have such advanced thinking, can they all be traversers? .

Yang Tong thought of this, nodded heavily: "Jiang Shangshu also talked about a very critical issue, from now on, let the Ministry of Industry and the Open Heaven Academy take on this task, not only weapons and climbing equipment, but even boots must be attached with anti-slip functions!" Although we can't completely stop it, we, as the superiors, need to be responsible for the safety of the lives of each and every one of our soldiers, and try not to let my Great Sui warriors fall off the cliff because of the slippery road, resulting in non-combat attrition. It is better to design armor, helmets, and even fire folds. ”

"Whoa!"

"Your Highness! According to the eight characters of His Highness's birthday, as well as the five elements, feng shui, and stars...... The Ministry of Rites has deduced the best auspicious day for the enthronement ceremony! Kong Yingda said happily.

"What day is it?" Yang Gongren asked excitedly.

Kong Yingda said happily: "November 11. ”

Yang Tong: "......"

"Your Highness, news from the Turks." At this moment, a guard hurried in with a copper pipe.
