"There are so many Di tribes, if we attack them one by one, even if we wait for the rest of our lives, we may not be able to destroy or force them away." After Guo Qizuo agreed to Zhu Li's plan, Guo Chongtao no longer objected, and instead threw out another difficult problem.

This is indeed a problem, but before Zhu Li could figure out how to respond, Guo Qizuo spoke: "It's okay, for the Di people, we can also adopt the strategy of long-distance friendship and close attack." ”

"My subordinates have heard that the Bohai Sea is brave and good at fighting, and they are located in the northeast, and the Khitan tribes are intertwined, the general might as well win them over and try to provoke such a tribe, and the conflict between them and the Khitan, and we will profit from it, so that we can save most of the time."

"What's more, Da Xuanxi, the leader of the contemporary Su Dynasty, has a connection with Li Quanzhong, and the general has a good alliance with Da Xuanxi, which can not only resolve the danger of Lu Long, but also launch a campaign against the Khitan with his hand." Guo Qizuo solemnly suggested.

"Millet?" Zhu Li was curious.

His look is in the eyes of Guo Qizuo and Guo Chongtao, and the two are not surprised, after all, many people know that there are seven parts, but everyone is not clear about which seven parts they are.

Guo Chongtao hurriedly explained: "General, divided into seven departments, the two most famous of which are Su Mo and Heishui. ”

"In the name of bravery, Heishui is the north of the Bohai Sea; During the holy calendar year, the leader of Su Mo, Da Zuorong, was founded in Bohai, and when Xuanzong was founded, he was named the king of Bohai County by the Tang Dynasty, and his power was very strong. ”

Guo Chongtao said this, Guo Qizuo immediately interjected: "Yes, if the general is married, these two branches must be married, the current Su Mo leader Da Xuanxi, and the Heishui leader Abu Liji, the general had better send people to all send generous gifts, and make an appointment with them to attack the Khitan together." ”

Da Xuanxi, the thirteenth monarch of the Bohai Kingdom; Abuli Ji is the descendant of the chief Ni Liji tribe, and in the tenth year of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, the chief Ni Liji was enshrined by the Tang Dynasty as the history of Boli Prefecture.

Although Su Mo and Heishui originated from the same race, they did not get along with each other, and the son of Da Zuorong, the second monarch of the Bohai Kingdom, Da Wuyi, once wanted to go on a northern expedition, which forced Heishui to seek political protection from Tang.

In the grasslands outside the Guanhai to the north of Youzhou, the most powerful forces are the Khitan, the Uighurs, and the Turkic remnants, which are similar to the Tatars, which are the remnants of the Turkic after the extinction.

After listening to Er Guo's suggestion, Zhu Li immediately decided to send Zhao Jing, who had just come to Shuozhou and had nothing to do at present, to send an envoy, and the fierce general Gao Mian led hundreds of elite Yue cavalry to protect along the way, and naturally there were ghost warriors to accompany him secretly.

At the beginning of April of the fourth year of Zhonghe, the Central Plains, with Hedong as the center, was in trouble.

Fengxiang Jiedu made Li Changfu attack Wang Chongrong and was frustrated, and asked Zhu Mei to help Yan Jiedu, Zhu Mei immediately agreed, and the troops went out of the state and killed Danzhou; And Wang Chongrong is not a person waiting to be killed, so he cheekily asked Li Keyong for help, and Li Keyong actually agreed.

At the same time, Zhu Li selected 3,000 cavalry and 10,000 guards from Shuozhou, sent troops to Yinshan, and began to conquer Saiwai; Guo Qizuo and Guo Chongtao continued to sit in Shanyang, transferred the former Sanggan general Lu Yong, and stationed in the central government, and Yang Zaixing led his troops to sit in the central government.

went to Yinshan together, as well as the fierce general Gao Siji, who is now changing

changed and became Zhu Li's tooth general; Of course, there is another capable person, that is, Xin Qi Niang.

Xin Qi Niang is not a general nameless person, and the reputation of hanging pots to help the world is still recorded in later generations.

Zhu Li promised to introduce this lady to Gao Su, but in a blink of an eye, she ran to Youzhou, and this time she went to Yinshan, she will definitely get together with Gao Su, so she naturally wants to bring this lady with her.

Yin Mountain, from Huashan Mountain in the east of Hebei Province in the east to Wolf Mountain in the west, is an ancient fault-block mountain range.

To the north of Yinshan, there is the vast Gobi, which is an area that the Di people are unwilling to set foot in, so it is naturally not within the scope of Zhu Li's conquest, and he plans to go to Fengzhou and Gaosu first, and then make plans after taking Fengzhou.

In the second year of Jinglong, the Tang Dynasty set up three surrendered cities near Yinshan, and now the middle surrendered city and the eastern surrendered city have been occupied by Gaosu, and there are still the western surrendered cities, which are not under control.

However, the younger brother of the original Zhenwu Army, Qi Zhang, and Song Yao, the general of the Tiande Army, led their troops to surrender when they attacked the plain before and after the Gaosu attack.

After the surrender, Gao Su did not move them, but ordered Song Yao to continue to garrison the city of Zhongshou, and Qizhang to garrison the city of Dongshou, while he was stationed alone in Jiuyuan to attack the combined forces of Dangxiang, Khitan, and Uighurs.

Gaosu's military camp is stationed on a vast grassland, as soon as Zhu Li led his troops to enter here, he felt that his eyes were bright, and everywhere he looked, the sky was long and green, which made people feel relaxed and happy.

Gao Su was overjoyed when he heard the news of Zhu Li's arrival, and Pegasus greeted him several miles away.

Hetao was taken by Gaosu a long time ago, and Zhu Li came here for the first time, according to the situation, the Heshuo army has completely controlled Yunzhong County, that is, the Houtao Plain in later generations.

"How's the situation in Toyoshu?" The two galloped across the vast field, galloping towards Gaosu's garrison camp, Zhu Li turned his head, looked at Gaosu, and asked directly.

"General, you came just in time, these Di people are too treacherous, bullying their subordinates, dividing the cavalry into several units, and harassing them like hyenas, so that their subordinates have not dared to go far." Gao Su inquired and replied a little depressedly.

When Zhu Li heard this, he glanced at the other party funny, this guy likes to rush to the front in everything.

There are also a lot of generals in the Hetao area, and he even assigned a garrison location for each of them, but he came to fight with the Di people alone, which is really admirable, "Who are the people on the other side and what is the strength?" ”

"The remnants of the party are almost more than 10,000 people; The Uighurs were the most numerous, with about 40,000 or 50,000 cavalry; The second is the Khitans, about 20,000 or 30,000. In the face of Zhu Li, Gao Su answered all questions and told him frankly.

"Uighurs?" Zhu Li squinted his eyes and spoke suspiciously.

"Don't the generals know about the Uighurs, the Uighurs are also known as the Uighurs, and the Uighurs have cooperated with His Majesty Taizong to defeat Xue Yantuo, and with the support of my Tang Dynasty, their power has gradually become stronger."

"In the third year of Tianbao, the Uighur leader Guli Peiluo established himself as a khan and established the Uighur regime; In the fourth year of Huichang, the Uighurs clashed with the Uighurs, and four years later, the Uighur regime was destroyed by the defeat of Guli Pero. ”

"After the fall of the Uighur regime, most of the ethnic groups migrated westward, such as the Uighur Khanate of Gaochang, the Uighur Khanate of Ganzhou, the Qarakhanid Dynasty, the Hexi Uighurs, and so on.

The Uighur cavalry that is now confronting us was from the Uighurs of Hexi and came from the region controlled by the Guiyi army. Gao Su patiently explained.

Zhu Li nodded and continued to ask: "What about the Khitans, aren't they mainly concentrated in the northeast, how can there be here?" ”

"The subordinates don't know how this group of people came from, they only know that this group of Khitans, the leader is a woman, called Yan Mujin."

"Originally, our army was stationed in Wuyuan, and everything went very smoothly, but from the middle of February this year, this Yan Mujin suddenly led his troops to appear in Fengzhou, and as soon as she arrived here, this woman immediately contacted the remnants of the party, and reached an agreement with the Uighurs, and the three parties joined together, with the momentum of annexing our army, so that his subordinates no longer dared to be stationed in Wuyuan, so they had to run to Jiuyuan." Gao Su looked stunned and said a little ashamedly.

After all, he was scared away by a woman, and it was a shame to say it, but he didn't hide it at all, and said it calmly.

"Rock Mother?" Zhu Li's expression was also very confused, "Did she say anything?" ”

After being reminded by Zhu Li, Gao Su seemed to have thought of something, and hurriedly said: "This woman is aggressive, as if she has a deep hatred for her subordinates, by the way, there seems to be a female general next to her, called, called Yueli Xin, this woman is even more fierce, full of shouting to kill everyone in Guangheshuo." ”

Whether it is Yan Mujin or Yue Lixin, Zhu Li has no impression, and he doesn't even have a clue, it seems that he has to take a step and look at a step.

The two talked about it, and came to the military camp in Gaosu, where nearly 30,000 Heshuo soldiers were stationed, including about 12,000 Yue cavalry, followed by three spearmen, sword and shield soldiers, and infantry archery, each with more than 6,000 people.

Entering the handsome tent, Zhu Li pointed at Gao Siji and said to Gao Su: "Brother Gao, this is Gao Siji, the general of Shuozhou, from the Gao family in Youzhou." ”

"Fortunately." Gao Su hurriedly gave up his hand and gave way to Gao Sijiqian.

"Meet General Gao." Gao Siji didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly responded humbly.

Zhu Li walked to Xin Qi Niang's side again, pointed at her and said to Gao Su: "This is our craftsman, Xin Yucheng." ”

Gao Su glanced at Zhu Li in surprise, and then glanced at Xin Qi Niang strangely, and then arched his hand and said: "In Xia Gaosu, I am fortunate to meet." ”

Xin Qiniang secretly looked at this strong general of Heshuo early in the morning, and sure enough, as Zhu Li said, he was very handsome and sound, but as for being very heroic, she didn't see it.

After all, the strong general who was scared away by the two women, she saw it for the first time, and when she heard the words, she was blessed, and said modestly: "Slave Xin Qi Niang, I still hope for the general, and I will bear with me in the future." ”

Regarding Xin Qi Niang's almost thorough gaze inside and out, although Gao Su felt very weird, he didn't say anything.

Zhu Li looked at the two of them, and suddenly interjected: "Senior brother, the safety of Xin Yucheng in the future will be handed over to you, this lady, but I finally invited it, and it depends on her whether the crossbow can reappear in the future. ”

Close, close, what do you mean, Gao Su was a little stunned, and looking at Zhu Li's businesslike appearance, he couldn't see anything ugly, so he had to surrender his life with Xin Qi Niang.
