Chapter 174: The General Trend

(Commuter Pass)

Li Po's troubles are a bit ridiculous to say.

There were too few people who were rewarded in the tournament, and the rewards were a little too thick, so countless people in the army became red-eyed.

Unlike later generations, the first thing most people think of is that there is a shady scene, and the soldiers at this time don't have so many crooked eyes, they just want to hold it again, anyway, they are idle in winter.

Li Po had a big head at the time, and he tossed for more than a month, you see how hard I worked, I was injured before, and I didn't even grow much this year, Li Bi's woman was as tall as me, and I was easy.

Damn, you still want to come again, you can't be beaten by iron? I really don't know how many things are going on, six thousand people, more than half of them participated, that is, thousands of people's activities, Li Po thought about it, and he couldn't help but shudder.

No, absolutely not, no one can say.

However, there are more and more people who come to lobby, and they are all guys like brigade commanders who can't reach military positions.

These men with big shoulders and round waists can be said to be warriors in the army, they can have no brains, but their bodies are definitely stronger than the other.

Originally, there was a big competition in the army, and these guys didn't take it to heart, and no brigade commander would steal the limelight with his subordinates, and it would not be shameful enough if he really went up.

But I regretted it later, a small army commander was directly promoted to the brigade commander, damn it, how much military merit does this have to be to be promoted so continuously?

If I win next time, the head of the six armies will not dare to look forward, and I can always get a battalion lieutenant to be the leader, right?

Even if it doesn't work, you can always go to Yunnei City to enjoy it.

Six thousand people. You can count as many brigade commanders as you want, and as many brigade commanders as you can open their mouths. Li Po was annoyed and finally agreed. Come again next summer, and send everyone away.

Then Li Bi came to trouble again, saying that if he didn't do serious things, he knew that he was making trouble.

Actually, I'm blaming him, the leader has brought all the soldiers to ruin, what kind of reward is that? Even if you are promoted, let people go to the Qinglou to mess around, is there such a leader of the troops?

Fortunately. Li Po can still hold it, and he didn't take the lead himself, otherwise, Li Bi's words here would definitely not be like this.

Li Po is the first and two big, and he reasoned with the facts before he fooled Li Bi again.

The fact is that the morale of the Heng'an Town Army is extremely high, the atmosphere in the barracks is very lively, and the military spirit is available.

The truth is. There are many means to unite the morale of the military, so what is the difference? Just make the soldiers feel that it feels good to be a soldier under you, and that's it.

Li Po is tired. Needless to say.

This winter, the emperor's edict arrived again, and 2,000 troops were transferred. I will go to Hebei next spring to listen to it and punish the ministers.

What makes people laugh and cry is that. In addition to the order to transfer troops, the emperor's edict also added a sentence. The emperor's fifty-two battles and the twenty-seventh expedition of Chengtang were also successful.

The meaning is very clear, I only hit twice, what is it?

But is this a matter of arithmetic?

It is estimated that there is such a sentence on every edict on the transfer of troops, which can be regarded as the emperor who shyly gave an explanation to the subjects of the world, and it seems that he himself is a little weak-hearted.

But at this time, it's useless for you to make an edict against yourself, not to mention such a sentence that seems to be still showing off your literary talent.

At this time, Li Jing was more shocked, it really happened, could it be that the qi of the Great Sui was really exhausted?

In fact, Li Jing thought before that the emperor would not send troops to fight Goguryeo again, after all, even people like Yang Xuangan were opposed, and the emperor should be able to stop for a while, and first calm the chaos in various places.

As for whether the beacon fires in various places can be calmed down, Li Jing thinks that it is already very difficult, the two expeditions to Goguryeo, so that the emperor's majesty is lost, Yang Xuangan is in turmoil, it is just a beginning, and there should be many latecomers.

As for where the general trend of the world will go, Li Jing has no bottom in his heart.

But at such a time, the emperor even had to raise troops to conquer Liaodong, which was completely unexpected to him, just like when the emperor issued an edict at the end of the eighth year of the Great Cause, preparing to raise troops again.

I thought it was impossible, but it just happened.

However, Li Jing was already almost numb, and then he just thought, the emperor is so rebellious, there is nothing to say, so where should he go in the future?

What he didn't know was that his eldest brother Li Duan felt that the opportunity had come this time and wanted to conquer Liaodong.

Because there are fewer and fewer powerful people around the emperor, this is a very good opportunity in Li Duan's opinion.

Li Duan's perspective is more special, but the effect is very good, when he arrived in the Eastern Capital, he was immediately valued by Yang Guang, allowing him to lead an army alone.

More than ten years later, King Li Yaowang finally got his wish and went into battle again.

This time, he did not forget his brother, and wrote to persuade Li Jing to go with him on the expedition and give him advice.

Li Jing received the letter, looked at it and directly put it aside, they are brothers in the fight, father and son soldiers, the two brothers, they found the right opportunity, and they must stab each other.

If he really believed Li Duan's words and followed him to Liaodong, it was up to him whether he could come back or not.

You must know that the stab back then made Li Jing feel painful.

At the end of winter, in order to commend his students for looking at the general trend of the world and being more insightful, Li Jing sent someone to bring Li Po some military books and his own notes.

But it's okay to teach in person, as long as Li Pozi is still so ugly and he still reads so little, he and Li Jing won't have too many common topics.

For Li Po, although there are a lot of troubles, but in the end, the winter of the ninth year of the Great Cause is the most comfortable winter Li Po has ever had.

At the end of the year, the officers and soldiers of Hengan Town held a camp to rejoice.

Li Bi set up a banquet to entertain the generals in the army, and it was a lively year.

And this day has passed, and it has been ten years......

……………………………………

This year is not a good year for Ma Yi.

In February, there was a sudden rebellion of displaced people in Mayi, and it was still near Mayi County, and the momentum was not small.

When Li Bi and Li Po, who were in Heng'an Town, heard the news, the chaos had subsided.

Li Jing, the Cheng of Mayi County, personally led the troops to quell the chaos, in this battle, Wei Chigong finally stood out, and after the chaos was calmed down, he was awarded the doctor of Chaosan because of his military merits.

This chaos is a bit inexplicable in Li Po's opinion, the county town, with Li Jing in charge, how can there suddenly be a rebellion among homeless people?

But then, Li Jing, the county prince, did not send troops to Hebei on the grounds that the displaced people were in turmoil, and soon asked for merit for the meritorious soldiers.

If this chaos is a bit sudden, and there is not much reason for it, then the news from the north is very normal.

Maybe it was suddenly noticed, ah, the Sui people's nest was reversed, the infighting was quite strong, and the attention of the Turkic royal court finally moved back from the Western Regions.

At this time, the Western Turks were already suffering under the oppression of the increasingly powerful Turkic royal court, and more importantly, they could no longer get the help of the Great Sui.

And the Turks have now become more and more powerful, no way, the Central Plains is in turmoil, and many people have turned north to the Turks, which has enhanced the strength of the Turks to the greatest extent.

In the spring of the tenth year of the Great Cause, the figure of the Turkic cavalry began to appear frequently on the steppe in the clouds, and soon, the Turks spread in and officially incorporated the steppe in the clouds into their hands.

Dingxiang County, the abandoned northern border county of the Great Sui, changed hands, and the two countries held each other for many years, and the buffer zone formed was gone.

At this time, the Turks were able to look south at the Great Wall and herd their horses, and by this time, war between the two countries was inevitable.

As for what the holy khan Yang Guang, who commanded the subjects of the Great Sui and came to the pilgrimage, did in the ten years of the Great Cause, he spent half of his time walking on the road to Liaodong.

From the end of April, when the army started and went to Huaiyuan Town, it was already July.

There is no way, on the way, the armies have no morale, they will have no fighting spirit, all the way, the soldiers fled all the way, Yang Guang's car cover, after the baptism of Liaodong Dongfeng snow, looked bleak and dilapidated, like his throne.

More than 200,000 horses, when they arrived in Huaiyuan Town, there were only more than 100,000 people left, and then under the city of Liaodong, it is estimated that it is unlikely, and the weather in Liaodong no longer allows the Sui army to go to war.

When they arrived, they captured the city of Beisha and marched into Pyongyang.

In the northern frontiers, the southward movement of the Turks was already evident, and the chain reaction was completely collapse.

First of all, Yulin Racecourse was greatly threatened, and with the repeated rebellions, Yulin Racecourse had to move south.

And the Liangzhou Horse Farm has been captured by Bai Yusao's rebels.

Almost overnight, the Great Sui lost two very important sources of war horses, leaving only Mayi, Yanmen Horse Farm barely remained.

Most of the border generals of the Great Sui still maintained a minimum of loyalty, and they were all ready to fight, waiting for the arrival of the war in fear.

But the so-called rebels did not have so many concerns, and it can be said that one of the things they longed for the most was to get help from the Turks.

Everyone who could exchange news with the Turks would choose to be a vassal to the Turks at the first time, and get a nominal guarantee.

In the ten years of the Great Cause, Ma Yi looked more solemn and solemn.

At this time, in the eyes of many people in Jindi, even if the Turks went south, they should not choose the peaceful Mayi Yanmen.

Calm meant that these places had enough strength to counter the Turkic southward movement.

It is also true, Mayi, Yanmen, Loufu, plus Jinyang, all have strong cities to defend, although the three expeditions to Liaodong, these local forces are not as good as before, but as long as the government soldiers are raised, there is definitely still the power of a war.

But when the world changes, who can say clearly?

In March of the tenth year of the Great Cause, Li Jing of Mayi County secretly ordered the Heng'an Town Army to take turns to go out of the fortress and sweep the grassland in the clouds.

(There is too much information to check, I forgot whether Li Yaowang participated in the second battle of Liaodong or the third time, and I don't want to go back to check, it's too troublesome, just think he joined the third battle of Liaodong, anyway, this person, as Li Jing's brother, is also quite tragic.)
