Chapter 311: Driving the Wolf and Devouring the Tiger

Yang Guang gently stroked his daughter's hair and comforted her: "Don't worry! After a while, I will hold a meeting to discuss the battle plan, and there will definitely be a way to relieve the immediate danger! ”

After Yang Luoqi heard this, Fang blinked a pair of beautiful eyes and said, "Father, didn't Yuming, the marshal of the Liaodong Army, lead an army of 100,000 in the grassland?" If you don't give an order to let him send troops to rescue, with the combat effectiveness of the Liaodong Army, you should be able to relieve the siege of Yanmen! ”

"That's okay! It's just that I treated him like that before, will he still save me? Yang Guangyou hesitated.

"Father, after Yuming returned to Liaodong, he did not openly oppose Sui like Yang Xuangan, but declared that he was still loyal to the Great Sui, but he was only persecuted by traitors and was forced to support his own army. No matter what he thought in his heart, at least he was still loyal to His Majesty on the surface. Now there is no other better way but to summon him to the rescue! Yang Luoqi said: "His army is now near Yinshan, and it is all cavalry, if Yuming's 100,000 Liaodong army goes south with all his strength, it will only take five days to reach Yanmen." ”

After Yang Guang heard this, he was also a little moved, and he asked in a deep voice: "But even if I notify Yuming to come to the rescue, it will take five days." And during this period of time, whether the Yanmen Pass can be held is a big question! ”

Yang Luoqi was not worried: "Did my father forget? The 170,000 troops of the old general Yu and the old general are already on it, calculate the time, they should also go to Yanmen Pass! ”

Yang Guang came to his senses at this time, and the two veterans were still behind with 170,000 infantry. Even if they couldn't defeat the Turkic army of 400,000, they would at least be able to hold them back for several days. And in these few days, the Turks will definitely not have the energy to divide their forces to attack the city again. He should be able to get to Yuming's army.

"Good! Rocky, do as you want! Yang Guang got up at this time and said, "Summons General Wang over!" ”

After a while, Wang Rengong walked into the room quickly, bowed and saluted, "See Your Majesty, see Her Royal Highness the Princess!" ”

Yang Guang said in a deep voice: "General Wang, I have decided to summon Yuming to come to the rescue. Now please inform the defenders of Yulin County with carrier pigeons, and ask them to send messengers and let Yuming lead the army south! ”

Wang Rengong rejoiced: "Your Majesty, this is a wise move. ”

"But do you think Yu Minglai is too sure?" Yang Guang asked worriedly.

"Call him like this, it is estimated that Yuming may not be willing, but if he is named a high-ranking official, it is estimated that he will be tempted!" Wang Rengong thought for a while and said.

"High-ranking officials? He is now the marshal of the camp, and he is in charge of the military administration of the six counties in Liaodong, and he is the highest-ranking local official. Can I still promote him to make six books? Yang Guang said with a displeased expression.

"Your Majesty, the official position of the real position can no longer be sealed to him, even if he is promoted to the sixth Shangshu, he may not dare to come to the Eastern Capital to take office. Weichen means: the official position of the false title can satisfy him casually. For example, he was named a king with a different surname. This doesn't cost the court a penny, but it can satisfy his vanity and induce him to come to the rescue! Wang Rengong proposed.

"What? A king with a different surname? Yang Guang was also shocked when he heard this, since the founding of the Great Sui, he has never crowned a king with a different surname, do you want to set a precedent from yourself?

It's just that Wang Rengong's words are also very reasonable. When Feng Yuming is the king, he will not give him Yulu, just send someone to announce it, and it is impossible to give him any more land, but it is just a little better in name. But it can paralyze Yuming greatly. Later, he repelled the Turkic army and put down the rebellion in the country by himself. Going back and cleaning up the Liaodong Army may not be a clever plan.

Thinking of this, Yang Guang finally nodded and said, "Okay!" Then spread my will and seal Yuming as the king of Zhou! Let him immediately lead the army south to Yanmen to rescue the driver! ”

……

One day in April, on a small hillside near Yinshan, Yu Mingzheng sat around a square table with Xue Qiluo of the Xue Yantuo Department, Zheletai of the Murwei Department, and Kubuli of the Tiele Department, chatting happily.

And beside them, there are several beautiful girls with slender figures, pouring wine for them.

If Yang Guang and Shibi Khan were here, they would definitely be surprised. They always thought that the Liaodong Army and Xue Yantuo and other troops were fighting fiercely. Who would have thought that there was no fighting between the two sides at all, and it seemed that the relationship was good.

"Marshal Yu, thank you for this trip, if you hadn't provided 50,000 stone of food, I'm afraid that our department doesn't know how many people will starve to death!" Hu Buli said with a grateful face.

He was Kubulai's cousin, and after the Turkic and Tiele wars two years ago, Kubrai led most of Tiele to retreat into the Liaodong grassland, and was later broken up and reorganized by Yuming and became part of the people under the jurisdiction of the Liaodong Xingying. And Kubuli led the remnants of Tiele to flee to the vicinity of Beihai and lived together with the Xuyantuo people. Therefore, the snow disaster suffered by them was much more severe than that of other tribes, but fortunately, Yuming gave them some food to help them survive the difficulties. In order to confuse the Turks and the Sui Dynasty, they and the Liaodong Army deliberately sent some people to pretend to fight near Yinshan Mountain to create a false appearance.

"Brother Kuburi is polite, although the food I provided is enough for you to survive this month, if you want to save the entire tribe, it is not enough." Yu Ming picked up the wine glass, took a sip of wine, and said slowly.

When the leaders heard this, their expressions were also very gloomy, because 50,000 stone of grain was only enough for their people to eat for a month. A month later, they will still face famine.

At this time, Zhe Letai cautiously asked, "Marshal Yu, can you give us a little more food?" If we can survive until the summer, we will be able to get through it. ”

Yu Ming sighed lightly, shook his head and said, "I, Liaodong, am also like you, I have also suffered from the snow disaster, and now I am also short of food!" The food for you is also my soldiers and people, and with all the effort, tightening the belts, squeezing out between the teeth, there is really not much......"

At this point, he paused for a moment, and then continued: "However, if you feel that there is not enough food, I have a good proposal, I suggest that you go to a place and let you go there to get food!" I know that there is absolutely enough food there, not to mention that you will be able to sustain yourself until the summer, but even until this winter. ”

"Oh? What kind of place is that? There is such an abundance of food, please ask the marshal to make it clear! Xue Qiluo asked hurriedly. Now that he is the leader of the Xue Yan Tuo Department, his father Qi Jin was already old and frail, although he was cured by Shumeng, but he still couldn't survive this cold winter. Many of his tribesmen had frozen to death and starved to death in the snowstorm, which made him anxious.

Yu Ming put away his smile at this time, looked to the west and said, "That place is the Turkic Tooth Tent!" You should know that most of the food of the Turks was stored in tooth tents. There's enough food there to feed your department! ”

"What? Turkic tents? When the leaders heard this, they were all stunned. You know, they were all tribes that were subservient to the Turks before. He was respectful to both the Khan of Qimin and the Khan of Shibi. And Yuming actually asked them to attack the Turkic tent, which they didn't expect at all.

"This ...... Marshal Yu, the food of the Turkic tent is definitely enough! Although they have been oppressing our department, we have long been dissatisfied...... But after all, they are the overlords of the grassland, and their troops are strong, even if our troops join forces, they will only have about 100,000 horses. It's impossible to attack the Turkic tent! Hu Buli said cautiously.

Yu Ming laughed and said: "I have sent someone to find out, and almost all of the warriors of the Turkic people have been taken by Du Ji to attack the Sui Dynasty, and they have only 10,000 men and horses in the tooth tent. If you join forces to attack, you can definitely kill them without leaving them alone. ”

After the leaders glanced at each other, Xue Qiluo said, "Marshal, even if we can defeat the Turkic army in the tooth tent. If he returns north with an army of 400,000 and learns that his tent has been breached by us, he will inevitably take revenge on us, and then our troops may be wiped out! ”

Xue Qiluo's words made Kubuli and Letai also nod again and again, in fact, how many people were left in the Turkic tooth tent, they also knew in their hearts. It's just that the Turks have always been the overlords of the steppe, and they have accumulated their prestige so far, and they dare not start a war against the Turks until they have to.

Yu Ming smiled and said, "Do you think there is still a chance for Du Ji to go back?" ”

At this time, he took out a white silk stamped with the seal of the Great Sui Emperor, shook it in front of them, and said: "This is the order of the Great Sui Emperor, to make me the king of Zhou, and to ask me to immediately lead the army south, cut off the Turkic army, and annihilate the men and horses of Duji in one fell swoop!" ”

"So, you don't have to worry about whether Duji can go back!" Yu Ming stood up at this moment, looked to the south with blazing eyes, and said in a firm voice: "This time, I want to go back without returning!" ”

Xue Qiluo has always admired Yuming because Yuming had defeated him in a duel with arrows, and Shumeng had cured his father's illness. Seeing Yu Ming say this, he was also very excited in his heart. At present, in addition to the Turks in the steppe, the most powerful is the Xuyantuo tribe. And he has the best relationship with Yuming. If the towering tree of the Turks falls, then the new overlord of the steppe may be him.

While the risks are high, the rewards are also considerable.

"There is a saying in the Central Plains: If you can't bear to catch a rabbit and a wolf, I'll take a gamble!" Xue Qiluo also stood up at this time, raised the scimitar in his hand and said.

Seeing that he was preempted by Xue Qiluo, he couldn't help but secretly regret it. I thought that this Yuming was actually named the king of Zhou by the Great Sui Emperor, which shows that he was indeed determined to destroy the Turks. There is a greater Sui than the Turks, and they are still afraid of a fart?

So, the two of them immediately bowed and saluted: "I would like to listen to the marshal...... No, I am willing to listen to the command of King Zhou! ”

"Good! Now gather all your men and go to the Turkic tent! This king also went south to settle the account with Duji! Yu Ming said with a smile.
