In the north of the two mountain passes of Heyuan Jishi Mountain and Xiyan Mountain, it is a huge camp, a dome tent stretches for dozens of miles, Yang Tong adheres to the usual style of leading troops, the camp is meticulous, although it is surrounded by hundreds of miles of Liangfei River, but the spear outside the camp is upside down, the trench is the same as the thistle terrestris everywhere, the banner in the camp is clear, the six armies are neat and orderly, everything seems to be in order, even if it is only left here for one night, but every detail is very well considered, this is also the biggest difference between the regular army and the miscellaneous soldiers when they camp, Because they know that a well-developed defense system can save their own life and then a family in a sudden war, no one will be negligent.

The Sui army in the battalion has reached more than 60,000 people, except for the first army led by Pei Xingyan and Niu Jinda, including 5,000 Xuanjia soldiers, 5,000 Qiang soldiers, and 1,000 Shura guards. In addition, there are 20,000 slave soldiers, these slave soldiers built an official road from Lintao to Heyuan in the West Tilt Mountain, due to the arrival of the war, they were all recruited by Yang Dong as soldiers, these are all slaves sold to the Great Sui by the East and West Chiefs, they built the road in the most difficult environment for several years, and because of the temptation of a Great Sui nationality, these people are very obedient, these people who have survived to this day are undoubtedly elite people, once they are given weapons, it will be a sharp dagger that pierces the heart of the enemy.

In order to confuse the Tubo and Tuyuhun coalition forces in Shannan, Yang Tong not only built the camp into a large camp of 200,000 people, but also used Dong Zhuo's trick of entering Luoyang, so that the soldiers quietly left the camp at night and entered the camp the next day, giving the enemy a false impression of gathering hundreds of thousands of troops.

In addition to the army here, Wang Fubao led 30,000 main forces to be stationed in Doma, Li Shimo led 10,000 soldiers to deploy in the south of the two mountain passes, and the cities of Wuhai, Jishi, and Fuluochuan behind the camp became important logistics centers, which were guarded by the requisitioned county soldiers.

With the arrival of the army in Heyuan County, it also indicates that the war is about to begin, so that all kinds of important information from both sides of the enemy and us fly to the big tent of the Chinese army one after another.

On an eagle tower at the highest point of the barracks, two eagles from the southeast circled around several times, and slowly landed on the eagle tower, a hawk slave quickly took the letter box from the two eagles and handed it to a soldier beside him, the soldier glanced at it, ran down the tower without saying a word, and said loudly to the wooden house below: "There are two first-level intelligence. ”

According to the urgency of the incident, the development situation and the degree of harm that may be caused, the intelligence of the Great Sui is divided into seven levels, which are marked with red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue, and purple, and the first level of red is the highest level and represents the most urgent intelligence.

Shurawei, who was waiting in the wooden house under the tower, took the two red letterboxes, took out the information, quickly wrote down the code, and translated the content of the information according to the page numbers and text positions of the "Historical Records" and the "Shengwu Emperor's Poetry and Anthology", and then a school captain and several Shura guards escorted the information to the Chinese army camp.

At this time, in the big tent of the Chinese army, Yang Tong was discussing the military situation with Wei Fengwu, Shui Tianji, Yin Mingyue, Yang Qinfang, Pei Xingyan, Niu Jinda, Du Ruhui, Liu Renliang, Wang Xiongdan, Yang Feng and others.

Yang Tong looked at Liu Renliang, who was in charge of intelligence collection and analysis, and asked, "Is there any latest movement of the Ertu Coalition Army in Shannan?" ”

Langri Zampu is the same as Songtsan Gampo in history, is a very ambitious and capable person, this time he sent the minister Shang Nang to lead the army to help Li Tang fight, but on the other hand, he secretly gathered a large army, taking advantage of Murong Fuyun's confidence to develop the people's livelihood, directly led the army to copy the Tuyuhun region, plundered a lot of resources and population, and when the war was still fighting, the joint coveting of the Khan has Murong Xiaojun, the "pro-Sui" Murong Fuyun killed, and successfully supported the puppet regime in Tuyuhun, if it were not for the alliance between Li Tang and Tubo in advance to see the strategic plan of Tubo, and let Wang Fubao lead the army to the source of the river, I am afraid that the source of the river and the West Sea, which are vast and sparsely populated, have already fallen into the hands of thieves.

The location where the Sui army camp is now located is the place where Qinghai, Tibet, Gansu and Shu meet, and the strategic position is very important, because of the help of various Qiang tribes in Heyuan County to transport materials, Yang Tong's march in Heyuan was very smooth, and there was no unexpected risk.

For the Great Sui Dynasty, Tubo was not only far away, but also poor and impoverished, and it could be said to be a desolate place with no value, which was not only useless, but became a huge burden for the Great Sui Dynasty, so Yang Tong did not want to take it for himself for the time being. But he doesn't want the southwest of the Great Sui to have a single-minded hegemon, the best way is naturally to let it be divided as before, as long as the various tribes attack each other and fight each other, there will be no war in the southwest of the Great Sui, and when the population of the Great Sui is prosperous and the time is ripe, it is not too late to occupy it in one fell swoop.

But in addition to the male lord of Langri Zampu, Tubo, Shang Nang, Non Keer, Lu Dongzan, Tun Mi Sambuza, Zhi Sai Dang Ru Gong Dun, Niang Chi Sang Yang Don Mo is not a famous general, even if there are not many people in the Central Plains who can compare with them, these people are famous in Tubo, among them, Tun Mi Sambuza is good at governing the country, on Keer and Zhi Sai when Ru Gongtun is good at the art of war, and when Ru Gongton and Niang Chisang Yangton are good at charging into battle, and the most powerful is the great minister Shang Nang, this person has both humanities and martial arts, and he has a hand in governing the country and leading the army, but he is best at strategic layout, Thanks to his strategy of long-distance and close attack, vertical and horizontal, and division and disintegration, Tubo was able to develop from a large tribe to a plateau overlord in such a short period of time.

As long as these people are still there, even if Langri Zampu is defeated by the hands of the Great Sui, he will be able to wipe out the forces opposing him, so in this battle, not only to break the army, but also to kill the generals, only in this way can the established strategy be completed.

"Returning to Shengshang, the eastern army of the Ertu coalition army retreated to the area of Guoluo Mountain south of the Yellow River, apparently because of the mighty momentum of our army, and was ready to use defensive techniques to drag the day of the decisive battle into the cold winter." Liu Renliang said.

"We spent so much effort to come to Heyuan, but we didn't confront him and eat ice and snow." Yang Tong shook his head and asked again, "What is the climate and environment here?" Have you made inquiries clearly? ”

"Back to the Holy One. After Weichen took over the intelligence, he sent scouts to inquire about the old local herdsmen many times. Liu Renliang replied respectfully: "They all say that this is the junction of mountains and plains, the weather changes greatly, sometimes it is still bright and clear, but in a blink of an eye, the wind is strong, it is pouring rain, it is summer, there will be heavy rain in the operation, but our soldiers are all elite soldiers in the main battle, every time it pours, they will fight in the rain to drill, so the heavy rain does not have a big impact on our army's combat strength." ”

Yang Tong asked curiously, "What is the big influence?" ”

Liu Renliang said: "It's hail. ”

"Liu Yuanjun said that he laughed, how much influence can ice and snow have?" Wei Fengwu, who was with the army for the first time, said with some disapproval.

"The queen doesn't know that the hail here is completely different from the hail you imagined." Liu Renliang said solemnly: "It is said that when the downpour comes, many times it will be smashed down from the sky with hail the size of an egg, and on the open grassland, there is no place to hide. It is an exaggeration to say that in the fifth year of the Great Cause, that is, in the autumn of the year when the first emperor destroyed Tuguhun, the hail here was as big as the head of a newborn baby, resulting in the death of thousands of herdsmen, tens of thousands of livestock, and all the crops of the year were lost, so the herdsmen here regarded hail as the first evil. ”

"Hailstones the size of a skull may be an exaggeration, but they must be huge." Yang Tong said with a smile: "It seems that in the future, everyone here will have to be equipped with an iron helmet and an iron shield, and they must be brought when they go out, so as not to be injured by hail." ”

Everyone in the big tent laughed.

"Don't worry too much, this kind of crazy hail is terrible, but it is not common, according to the old herdsman, the five years of the great cause is the only disaster they have encountered in their lives, and when the hail falls, not every grassland has it, it is very much like the rain on dog days, it rains crazy on this side, but the other side of the street is dry and dusty."

Yang Tong nodded slightly, this is a bit similar to convective rain, but convective rain mostly occurs at low altitudes, so the disaster in the fifth year of Daye should be an accident.

"Jokes are jokes, but we can't be careless, invite some old herders who are familiar with the local climate to join the camp and listen to it, this is called being prepared." Yang Tong commanded.

"Whoa." Liu Renliang surrendered his hand.

Yang Tong thought for a while, and then said, "We have been coming to Heyuan for three days, and we have transferred the power of the Ertu coalition army to this side with the strategy of virtual and real, but the fake is false after all, in order to avoid a long night dream, I decided to march overnight, join Wang Fubao, and then with an absolute advantage in troops, simply and neatly defeated the Tubo army on the West Road." Then he sent a partial division to the south, directly took the capital of Tubo, and induced Langri Zanpu to rescue him, while the division of our main force intercepted it halfway. ”

"Holy Lord, our main goal is to annihilate the living force of Tibet, it doesn't matter whether we occupy the city or not." Du Ruhui said: "Weichen thinks that when the Western Route Army is defeated, Langri Zampu will move westward, so this partial division only needs to pretend to go south, and then turn around and attack the enemy army with the main force in the south and north, and further expand the results." As for the territory of Tibet, it is contested by Zhangxiong, the daughter country, and the opposition forces within Tibet, and there is no need for us to waste too much military power in it, lest we defeat some forces. ”

"This is a good way to concentrate our efforts on attacking the more than 100,000 people led by Langri Zamp." Yang Tong is not a stubborn person, and after a little consideration, he chose to be good.

"Enlighten the Holy One." At this time, a Shura Wei lieutenant reported outside the tent: "General Shen has an urgent battle report. ”

Yang Tong perked up and said, "Present it." ”

"Whoa." The lieutenant entered the account and submitted the two translated battle reports, Yang Tong hurriedly read them, and his face suddenly showed a strange expression.

"Holy Lord, what's wrong?" Seeing Yang Tong's strange face, Du Ruhui hurriedly asked.

"At a small cost, Shen Guang attacked the Luchuan Hejiang area with fire, and achieved a brilliant record no less than the Battle of Chibi, annihilating more than 10,000 naval troops and more than 5,000 army troops in Li Yuan's entry into Shu. The fleet of more than 1,000 large and small ships was all burned down, and the millions of stones of grain and countless belongings that Li Yuan had looted in Jingzhou were also buried in the river. Speaking of this, Yang Tong secretly glanced at Wei Fengwu, and said: "Yuan Tiangang, Yuan Ziyan father and daughter led the 10,000 warriors of the three divisions of the king to arrive in time, they set the land military camp on order, and then the two sides joined forces to eliminate more than 20,000 Tang army soldiers. ”

"Yuan's father and daughter have been in Shu for a long time, and they have only gathered some small wingmen, although the slightly larger villages are willing to respect my Great Sui Dynasty, but they are unwilling to send people to participate in the war between the Sui and Tang Dynasties, their father and daughter actually said that they moved the wingmen to send troops this time, and they happened to catch up with the battle launched by General Shen, which is really unexpected." Xu is Sui army won more Tang army, so Du Ruhui was not too surprised by Shen Guang's victory, but the appearance of the wingmen made him deeply interested: "The key is that the prestige of the wingman directly sent troops to participate in the Sui and Tang wars, which has a great impact on other villages, as long as he is willing to come forward, he will definitely be able to recover more wingmen." ”

"What Du Shangshu said is extremely true." Liu Renliang also said excitedly: "The wingmen live in the mountains and forests, and they are in the company of poisonous insects and beasts all day long, although they are a little barbaric, but they are brave and good at fighting, and they are also very good at it, such as taming beasts, refining medicines, looking for minerals, etc., the Great Sui wants to prosper, and this kind of talent is naturally more and better." The key point is that if the population of up to one million goes down the mountain, it will play a crucial role in the post-war reconstruction of the Great Sui Dynasty, whose population has plummeted. The Yuan father and daughter have really made a great contribution. ”

Wei Fengwu also heard all kinds of benefits, but she found that Yang Tong was sullen, and she felt a little puzzled: "Holy Lord, the father and daughter of the Yuan family have really done a good job, and even the king can say surrender." ”

"But do you know how their father and daughter managed to convince the king?" Yang Tong's face showed anger, and he suppressed his anger.

"This ......" Wei Fengwu shook her head, of course she didn't know.

"The condition for Qin Wang's army is to intermarry with me. And Yuan Tiangang, an old miscellaneous hair, saw that the princess Lan Xue'er had an indescribable appearance of a prosperous husband, so he agreed without authorization. Yang Tong's voice suddenly rose several degrees, shaking everyone's eardrums.

"Uh......" everyone's eyes widened, and they looked at Yang Tong in disbelief.

"The Holy One temporarily rests the wrath of the thunder!" Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Yang Feng, a Qiang man who didn't know much about Han culture, said truthfully: "It didn't take a single soldier to recover a million people, and he also wiped out tens of thousands of Tang troops, and got a Wangfu woman for the saint, I think this Yuan Tiangang did a good job." ”

The men present all gave Yang Feng a 'you awesome' look.

In an instant, the big tent fell into an eerie silence.

"This palace thinks General Yang is reasonable." Wei Fengwu smiled reluctantly, in fact, she didn't think that her husband, who was the emperor, would end up with her, after all, she had never seen a man with only one wife, even Fang Xuanling, who was famous for being afraid of his wife, also had a few concubines, and in her concept, there was not much resistance to this kind of natural thing.

But Yang Tong, who is the emperor, seems to be quite self-disciplined on the issue of women.

Except for Yin Mingyue, the rest of the women were forced by others, Shui Tianji and Eldest Sun Wujian were stuffed by Zhang Qiu Taiyi, Li Xiuning and Xiao Yuexian were negotiated between Fang Xuanling and Xu Jingzong and the enemy, and Lu Qinghua was facilitated by her Wei Fengwu.

Now that things have happened, and it also involves national events such as the Han and the Han clans, the stability of Yizhou, and the prestige of the emperor, what can she do? It's really going to be vetoed, and all the consequences brought about by this have to be borne by her, and it's not an exaggeration to say what Wanfu pointed out.

Besides, there are a large number of people watching the show, she doesn't want people to think that she is a jealous woman, and she doesn't want Yang Tong to fall into the majesty of the head of the family and the king of a country in front of many courtiers, so she can only endure the depression and admit it very magnificently.
