Chapter Twenty-Five: Facing the River, but Hearing the National Policy
Let's say that Gongsun Xun and Lu Zhi's father and son passed by, and after they couldn't see each other, they turned back to Jiexiu, and then put their minds on marching into Hedong and crusading against the Baibo bandits.
However, after spending a lot of manpower, material resources, energy and time to reconnoiter and explore Hedong, Gongsun Xun and his wise men felt helpless in the face of this famous county in the world.
"Returning to the prince, except for the rough strategy of dividing troops to outflank the party, we have no other strategy." In the official temple in Jiexiu City, Lou Gui was a little embarrassed after saying this.
After all, before the people were loyal, they suddenly had a flash of inspiration, seized the window of power in Hanoi, drove the tiger and devoured the wolf with one move, easily took a county, and collected 5,000 cavalry, which inevitably dwarfed Lou Gui and Tian Feng. Even the only feasible strategy at this time, that is, Lou Gui's words about going out to the party and outflanking the back road, is actually not based on the 'battle record' of others' loyalty?
"It's really hard to do!" Gongsun Xun didn't care about Lou Gui's expression, in fact, he also frowned slightly when he looked at the dense military intelligence reports and a large number of scholars and official letters on several cases. According to this information, the so-called 100,000 Hedong Baibo bandits are actually not just the remnants of the Yellow Turban...... It's more like a move of self-protection and autonomy under the banner of the Yellow Turban in Hedong! β
Everyone bowed their heads.
"I was confused before." Gongsun Xun shook his head more and more. "Since the Baibo bandits have gathered 100,000 people, why can the Taishou Wangyi and the Hedong clan still survive in the vicinity of Anyi (the later Yuncheng area) south of the Lianshui, and a mere Lianshui can really stop the 100,000 people? After all, if you talk about combat power, Dong Zhuojun's troops are all elite in Kansai, and they are still defeated...... Today, it seems that the two sides are a family, the Baibo bandits are based on Fenshui, and the rest of the people who don't want to be thieves are in Anyi, and they just tacit each other! β
"It's not necessarily the case that a family says." Tian Feng suddenly frowned. "How can there be so many conspiracy theories in the world, but ten out of ten ** are dictated by the general trend. In my opinion, the Baibo bandits originated from the people of the West River, and it should be true that Mrs. Guo, the remnant of the Yellow Turban, led the matter...... Then it was nothing more than the chaos of the first emperor at that time, the chaos in Liangzhou in the west and the need for labor in Hedong, and the people and heroes were afraid of death, so they had no choice but to follow. As for the situation at this time, it should be because the Wang clan in Hedong is mostly living in the south of Shushui, but there are many powerful manors on both sides of Fenshui, and it is harsh to say that they colluded. β
Gongsun Xun couldn't help laughing: "What Yuan Hao said is right, I was a little harsh, but no matter what, I can't expect help from Anyi's side now." β
"Anyi wasn't in the plan." Lou Gui sighed. "Only on both sides of the Fenshui River, the officials, the powerful and the common people are all opposed...... For the white bandits, it is like defending the country, which is really difficult to do! β
"In that case, can't you surrender?" The frustrated sect next to him couldn't help but interject.
"How can you talk about surrender at this time?" Tian Feng still said disapprerovingly. "Although the Baibo bandits are like the heroes and powers of Hedong, and the people protect themselves under the banner of anti-flag, but since they swept through most of Hedong, defeated Niu Fu, and once invaded the Shangdang, who dares to say that their leader has no ambition? Therefore, the surrender must be able to recruit, but it is definitely not at this time, at this time the other generation is in full swing! β
"In this way, in order to discuss Dong Cong's speed, now there is only a face-to-face battle?" Frustrated Zong tentatively asked.
"Not bad." Gongsun Xun nodded and said, but simply got up and ordered. "Since the spring ploughing has passed, and the Shangdang has been in the bag, do not delay, the whole army marched along the Fenshui, out of Yong'an (now Huo County, Shanxi), Xiayang County (Hongdong), to Linxiangling (Linfen)...... Hunt for a decisive battle! β
"How to arrange the direction of the party?" Tian Feng immediately asked. "Who will lead how many soldiers from the party to the rear?"
"Not a single soldier!" Gongsun Xun replied proudly. "The key to this battle is to fight a decisive battle in person, our army has few soldiers, and if we divide our troops, we will lose our combat strength; And Yu Baibo said that how could they not know that the party in the neighboring county had fallen into my hands? That's why I don't divide my troops, and they will be on guard. β
Tian Feng was silent for a while.
"How many soldiers will be left in the party?" Lou Guifu asked again.
"Didn't Zhao and Cheng Lian bring two thousand Hanoi soldiers to Shangdang? Just let the two thousand soldiers be lured to see Huguan and South Sheep's Head Mountain. Gongsun Xun had already left his seat and walked out, and he still calmly commanded when he heard the words. Anyway, if Hedong wins, he can naturally slowly recruit county soldiers to enforce the law. β
"Yu Fu Luo and Hu Chuquan are still outside the city and begging to see the prince." Wang Xiu, the general of the town army who had not been silent, suddenly reminded. "What should I do?"
"If you want to see me so much, let the two of you go to Yi to be a military chief, and Yiwen will be careful to watch!" Gongsun Xun sneered and walked out. "Its 5,000 cavalry is divided into five, each with 1,000 people, two to Cheng Lian and two to Wei Yue, and the two of them are the deputy generals of Yigong as Sima of other departments; The last one is for Yuwen Black Otter! β
"It's harsh......" Tian Feng frowned for a while. After all, it is a serious Xiongnu Shan Yu and the right Xian King, and the four hundred years of Xiongnu Liu orthodoxy. β
"What do you want to do if you surrender?" Gongsun Xun had already walked out of the official temple, but the voice could still be heard. "If it weren't for the fact that the Meiji Royal Court was still alive and needed to rely on their influence in the future, I would have hanged these two people outside the city a long time ago...... China's civil strife, a few Huns actually want a piece of the pie? Do you really think your surname is Liu?! β
On the official temple, many strategists and generals were speechless.
A few days later, on the fifth day of the second lunar month, seeing that the spring ploughing in Taiyuan was roughly completed, General Wei Gongsun Xun no longer hesitated, and immediately sent the whole army down the Fenshui River to take the east side of the river...... Both sides of the Fenshui River are the richest places in Jindi, a smooth road, the armor along the way is dazzling, the banners are distinct, and the marching situation is unobstructed.
And it wasn't until the army went out that Gongsun Xun sent messengers all over the army and announced a large number of appointments:
The first one, naturally, his grandson Xun's younger brother Sun Yue was the general of Ning Shuo, sitting in Taiyuan County to govern Jinyang, and led an empty Jiuyuan Taishou.
Then, the original Yuyang Taishou Changlin was the Taiyuan Taishou, and the former Yanmen Taishou Guo Yi was the Yuyang Taishou...... This was also planned.
For the Shangdang who had just started, Gongsun Xun was the former chariot cavalry general Shi Leyin as the Shangdang Taishou, and the former official was recruited as the captain of Huguan...... This appointment is because he is worried about the lack of prestige and pulls out a signboard, otherwise he is just a lieutenant with his qualifications under Gongsun Xun, and he has both civil and military skills?
This is not counting, Gongsun Xun is also a famous man in Youzhou, Wei You, who has been friends for many years, is the Taishou of Guangyang, and the former Guangyang Taishou Du Yi is introduced into the army...... It seems that he takes a fancy to his people as a Fufeng background, and wants to borrow him for Hedong or Guanzhong.
As for Tian Chou and Cheng Lian, who returned at this time, they were quite a bit.
Among them, Tian Chou is only twenty-two this year, and he is still too young to be released, so he is naturally reclassified into righteousness, but he is the only one who has worked hard this time and cannot be rewarded, so he specially added the title of Qianshi Sima.
Chenglian Bian County Wufu, the so-called minions, is the same as his former countryman Wei Yue, leading 2,000 soldiers, named Sima Auxiliary Han Dang, who is actually a cavalry deputy general, directly under Gongsun Xun.
In addition, it is slightly worth mentioning that Gongsun Xun also used the merits of Yanmen, Taiyuan, and Shangdang to show that he was loyal to a former military division lieutenant general, Han Dang was a rebellious lieutenant general, and Gao Shun was a captain of Yokono...... This was expected by everyone.
Of course, the rest of the generals and subordinates in the army, and even ordinary soldiers, have already captured Taiyuan to obtain a lot of wealth, and have already had military merit calculations, promotions, and considerable rewards, so there is nothing superfluous to say this time...... After all, thousands of miles of labor are on an expedition, and the military spirit at the bottom is the most sloppy, how could Gongsun Xun make this mistake?
And since the army has rested, rewarded, promoted, and has sufficient armaments, and is flowing downstream, there is no doubt about its momentum.
On the seventh day of the first month of February, the Youzhou army easily captured Yong'an, the northeastern gateway of Hedong;
On 11 February, the Youzhou army marched into Yang County, and this time they encountered resistance from a force of four or five thousand troops north of Yang County, and the battle was fierce, but they still won easily.
In fact, after the first war in Yang County, there was one joy and one worry, and the upper echelons of the Youzhou Army were less worried than before, and more relaxed:
First of all, although it was expected for a long time, it may be because of the participation of a large number of heroes and good families, the quality of the soldiers of the Baibo bandits is even better than imagined, and they can be called fierce and daring...... Gongsun Xun even saw the old department who was the Knight of the Three Rivers in the captivity!
But on the other hand, if you don't fight in person, what you can't imagine before is that the two sides of the Fenshui River are too flat, and the ground is solid, and the grass grows and the warbler flies in spring, which is really conducive to large-scale cavalry combat!
Although the Hedong knights are famous all over the world, if you talk about the number of war horses and the scale of the cavalry, how can a county in Hedong be compared with Gongsun Xun's army?!
Continuing to move forward, attacking the city, and seeking opportunities for decisive battles has become the consensus of the middle and high levels of the military!
But just when the army continued to move south, fought again and won again in Gaoliang Pavilion in the southwest of Yang County, broke the enemy by 3,000, and was about to take advantage of the situation to go south to Xiangling, but suddenly someone ignored the chaos of the army and waited for the war to be calm, so he came alone and met him.
"Wei covets Wei Bo coveted?" Gongsun Xun stood under the umbrella of the Chinese army, looking back curiously and asking. "I seem to have heard the name of this person...... I don't remember clearly, do any of you know? β
As soon as the words fell, it was the military Chinese book Wang Xiang who couldn't wait to give his hands to each other: "Junhou!" I have heard the name of this person in Hanoi for a long time, as far as I know, this person is the first family in Hedong, the first in virtue, the first in learning, the first in calligraphy, the first in articles, so it is known from all sides, this person is the first famous person in Hedong! β
Gongsun Xun, like many officers and subordinates around him, was dumbfounded.
However, many of the staff and righteous servants in this army who were activated from Taiyuan, such as Ling Huhua, the son of the Linghu clan, and Wang Ji, the son of Wang Rou of Taiyuan, actually bowed their heads one after another.
Of course, Gongsun Xun also came back to his senses immediately...... Hedong's surname is Wei, and it must be Hedong Wei's family (which has nothing to do with Wei Qing, but is the descendant of the princely kingdom surnamed Ji who has been inherited for thousands of years), and his family background is naturally the first in Hedong; And the rest of the firsts, not to mention what virtue and learning, calligraphy and articles can never be faked in front of Wang Xiang, so I am afraid that there is no problem with these two firsts.
Since this is the case, no matter what, it is also necessary to meet, not to mention that the other party should be far away from Anyi's house at this time.
As soon as he thought of this, Gongsun Xun simply interrupted Wang Xiang's introduction to Wei Qi...... What kind of teenager became famous, known as a prodigy or something...... Invite them directly.
Seeing a tall, well-dressed, and straight-crowned middle-aged man in his thirties walking from afar, Wang Xiang and the others instinctively wanted to dismount to greet them, but seeing Gongsun Xun sitting on a horse, stopped under the umbrella cover and did not move, they were helpless and did not dare to move!
As for how Lou Gui, Han Dang and the others didn't know, the arrogant and compassionate temperament of their own princes came up again, as if they were speechless on the surface of what 'various firsts', and they were sarcastic in their hearts.
"Hedong Wei coveted, I've seen General Wei!" This person didn't care about Gongsun Xun's posture, and bowed directly under the horse, and then went straight to the point. "Dare to ask General Wei, but do you want to continue down the Fenshui River and attack Xiangling?"
"Not bad." Gongsun Xun replied simply. "Even people who don't understand military affairs can probably know it at a glance...... What's the matter, aren't you trying to be a lobbyist for Mrs. Guo and persuade me not to enter? β
As soon as these words came out, Wang Xiang and the others couldn't help but look anxious...... Because Gongsun Xun's words are too malicious!
However, Wei Qi raised his head under the horse, not angry at all: "Hui Hui, General Qi is not here to be a lobbyist, but he is indeed here to persuade the general not to march again, and he wants to invite the general to be here!" β
The atmosphere in the Central Military Department was delicate for a while.
However, Gongsun Xun laughed: "I'm winning a streak now, how can I stop here?" Don't you know that I'm going to ask for Dong? When will you be able to cross the river east of Luoyang? β
"It's good to teach the general to be clear." Wei Qi was not in a hurry and continued to answer with a straight face. "I was in Anyi before, and across the river, I can see that Dong thieves have begun to move the capital...... The people around Luoyang are held by the armor, crying along the way, and they can be heard across the river...... And there are rumors that Dong Thief issued a death order, before mid-March, it is necessary to complete the relocation of the capital, and the east of the river is vast, and the general is afraid that he will not have time to stop it no matter what, let alone Luoyang? β
Everyone in the army looked at each other, and they were flustered, even Gongsun Xun's face became gloomy and uncertain: "Even if I can't stop the relocation of the capital, I should march quickly!" You call Dong a thief, shouldn't you help me cross the river quickly? β
"General." Wei Qi replied earnestly. "It is precisely because I am counting on the general to eliminate the national turmoil, so I am even more afraid that the general will make a mistake in Hedong, in case it will ...... in the future."
"I said it all, the whole army has won consecutive battles, where did the mistake come from?" Gongsun Xun seemed to be quite angry.
"I'll ask General Wei." Wei Qi is still not afraid. "You have won all three battles, how many white wave thieves have you surrendered and defeated?"
"More than 8,000!"
"Then go down to Xiangling, if it is three or five thousand in person, what should the general do?"
Gongsun Xun immediately came to his senses.
"It's okay to be blunt." Wei Qi saw that the other party woke up, and he also hurriedly explained. "The general went down the Fen River, and there were many cities occupied by Baibo bandits such as Pingyang, Jiangyi, Linfen, Jicheng, and Pishi in front of him...... If Mrs. Guo still avoided the battle and led 50,000 or 60,000 people to take refuge in the Luliang Mountains in the north, how should the general respond? There are nearly 20 counties in Hedong, and the land is vast and densely populated, if the general lets them go and rushes into Guanzhong, is he not afraid that the logistics will be cut off? If there are so many cities along the way, how many soldiers should be left? The general's only strategy is to completely sweep away the east of the river, so that he can rest assured and boldly cross the Yellow River to fight a decisive battle with Dong thief! β
Gongsun Xun pondered for a while.
However, Lou Gui suddenly asked immediately: "Nanyang Lou Gui, may I ask Mr. Bo Ji, why are you sure that Mrs. Guo will avoid the war, and why do you want our army to stay here in Yang County, instead of stopping here, will you force Mrs. Guo to take the initiative to fight a decisive battle?" β
"I've seen the lieutenant general of the left army." Wei Qi did not lose the number of gifts, but he asked a rhetorical question. "Dare to ask General Zhonglang, do you know the situation in Hedong?"
"Isn't it that the clan gathers in the south of the Shuishui, so I ensure that my senior brother Wang Tai is not lost in Anyi, and the strong and good families live on both sides of the Fenshui, so they gather the crowd to be bandits?" Xi Zhong interjected.
"That's pretty much it, but there's a mistake." Wei Qi pointed to Fenshui in the north and said calmly. "In fact, the east of the river is divided into three by Shushui and Fenshui...... Famous families, mostly living in the north of the Yellow River in the south of Shushui, based on the ancient capital of Anyi, you are not wrong; And Haoqiang and Liangjiazi live on both sides of Fenshui, but Haoqiang lives in the south of Fenshui and north of Lianshui, and Liangjiazi mostly lives in the north of Lianshui......"
Gongsun Xun's face moved slightly.
"But further north, in Luliang Mountain, because of the previous chaos in Guanzhong, there are also many people who fled from Zhongzhong, Liangzhou, and Bingzhou." Wei Qi continued. On that day, Guo Tai raised troops with the remnants of the Yellow Turban, that is, he first gathered the hungry people in the mountains in the north, went all the way south, first coerced the good family on the north bank of Fenshui, and went to the Baibo Valley on the edge of Fenshui to officially start an incident, and then crossed the river to attack the city, attracting countless powerful families to follow each other...... At this time, those who blocked General Wei in various places were actually the powerful people in various places who did it without authorization, but Guo Tai and the people of Fenbei made arrangements at this time, and repeatedly retreated and avoided ......"
"I see what you mean." Gongsun Xun suddenly interrupted the other party directly. "Are you saying that Mrs. Guo couldn't command those Fennan heroes...... If I go all the way south and the momentum is like thunder, he will have a reason to avoid the war, and take advantage of the situation to abandon those heroes; But if I stop here and send cavalry to attack and harass everywhere, like a sword hanging on the top, these Fennan heroes can have time to connect together and force Guo Tai to come to a decisive battle. β
"That's exactly what it means." Wei Qi bowed and said earnestly. "General Wei...... I don't know the art of war, but I have lived here for a long time and know the situation in Hedong slightly, so why don't the general stay here temporarily? If what I said is right, take advantage of the situation to fight a decisive battle to get rid of future troubles, if what I say is wrong, wait a few days, it will not hinder the overall situation! β
"Very well said." Gongsun Xun held the reins in his hand and looked at Fenshui in the north on his horse and bowed slightly. "It's true that I was careless...... It's just that Mr. Bo Cha, this is none of your business, you don't sit in Anyi and watch the success or failure, but come here alone in the war, what are you trying to do? According to what my subordinates just said, you are a young adult, and your family background and reputation are known as the first in Hedong, but you have never been out of office, why are you alone and come here to help me? β
Wei Qi shook his head: "The world is not chaotic, I concentrate on the calligraphy of the canon, can't I?" And if there is turmoil today, as a scholar, isn't it natural to set up chaos anyway? β
"Having said that, the world is in turmoil, and the heroes are rising, why do you think I am the one who sets things right?" Gongsun Xun was condescending, smiling rather than smiling. "I'm not a corporal of courtesy."
"I am not a flattering person, but when I saw General Wei move his troops and horses in the spring, I also understood that General Wei was by no means a vain person, and he also had a heart of appeasement. Not to mention, at this time, Dong Zhuo was overly violent, and he needed to be able to suppress his heroics! Wei Qi looked up and replied solemnly. At this time, if I don't come to look for the general, do I want to count on these bandits in the county to quell the chaos? β
"How is my senior brother Wang Yi, isn't he your county king?"
"The prince has the support of the whole county." Wei Qi replied calmly. "And Corporal Lixian, only he doesn't know how to use soldiers, and he doesn't have soldiers...... At this time, can you expect anything from him? β
Gongsun Xun couldn't help but laugh, but he dismounted in embarrassment, and then bowed his hand slightly to the other party: "It's me who is suspicious and mistakenly treats the countryman as an empty talker...... Dare to ask Mr. Bo Cha, since there are two rivers and three places in Hedong, and the situation is different, why is Hedong peaceful? β
Seeing this, everyone in the Chinese army also hurriedly dismounted.
"North of Fenshui, there are innocent people." Wei Qi didn't make a show of Qiao at all, but just gave it all away, and even a little impatient. "If Guo Tai can be captured, the general should not pursue them again, but should appease them and let them return home to farm."
Gongsun Xun's heart moved, but he became more and more serious.
"As for those wealthy and powerful families in Fennan, these people actually have no ambitions, but they often gather thousands of families and households, and they have hundreds or thousands of guests, which is due to their strength. In addition, there was turmoil from time to time, so they raised troops one by one to entrench in the cities and township pavilions, which was called rebellion, which was really a separation, and it was just a matter of peace. Only the people of Hedong are strong, and they are good at fighting, so they must be controlled...... If the general can fight and deter Hedong, he might as well take advantage of the war to include these people in the army, choose the shameful and good people among them as generals, use military law to get rid of the ignorant and immoral people, and then annex them! In short, they can't be allowed to continue to stay in Hedong, otherwise once there is turmoil, they will know the taste of the marrow, and sooner or later they will rebel! β
Gongsun Xun looked at Wei Qi at this time, and he already had a taste of appreciation!
But......
"Then I would like to ask Mr. Bocha." Gongsun Xun couldn't help but urge when the other party said this. "Over there in Anyi, what should the Hedong clan do?"
"It varies from person to person." Wei Qi replied in a deep voice. "The Hedong family is a person with both ability and political integrity...... For example, there is a young man with bundled hair in the Jia family, named Jia Kui, who is now a county official in Anyi, I think that this person can outperform me ten times! β
Gongsun Xun couldn't help laughing: "A young man with bundled hair has some talents, but he can be cultivated, how can he compare to you, Mr. Bo Cha?" Is it just because his surname is Jia? β
"Because he saw that the world was going to be chaotic very early, he had been leading his fellow villagers to practice military affairs while he was a teenager, and he had to teach his family to learn the art of war." Wei Qi Zhengse. "And it's all about people...... Although he was from a family, his family was poor, and before he became a official, he was only poor with a pair of pants, and his brother-in-law Liu was rich in the clan, so he wore torn pants to visit, and then stayed overnight, and left early the next morning wearing his brother-in-law's pants......"
Gongsun Xun was speechless for a while.
"General Wei, I probably guessed that it was nothing more than a corner of the Hedong clan that was in a corner of Anyi, and there was nothing to do with the white wave thief, and you were suspicious, so you were suspicious of me, and the Hedong clans...... But you say, the poor Hedong Jia family who went to his brother-in-law's house to change their pants and the Liu family, who gave up their pants every time, will this kind of clan really have a false reputation? β
Gongsun Xun couldn't help laughing: "But Anyi can survive for a long time, but it makes people suspicious, the Jia family is poor, and the Liu family is free, but is there no extravagant family?" You say that Hedong Haoqiang is called a bandit, but it is actually a secession, so is there no Hedong clan named as an official and a thief who is actually a secession? Mr. Bo Cha, it's not that I'm harsh, but once the clan is divided, it's more troublesome than those who have no ambition! β
"There are indeed two such clans, and there are indeed two bandits." Wei Qi's face remained unchanged. "Now in Anyi City, the soldiers and horses are restrained by the two of them, it is nothing more than that the prince has been in office for two years, and he is considered their benefactor, so he did not persecute the officials, but the situation in Anyi is controlled by the two! If the general quells the Baibo bandits and goes south to Anyi, I think they should also be co-opted, or simply disposed of! β
"Who is it?" Gongsun Xun was in hot pursuit.
"One is the Fan family, and the leader is called Fan Xian; One is my fellow Wei clan, the leader is called Wei Gu, but he is my brother! Wei Qi's face remained unchanged. If I didn't want these two to know, why would I venture here alone? It's good that many powerful families here recognize me, but I'm not afraid of chaos? β
The people around him looked at each other and were speechless, but Gongsun Xun raised his head and laughed when he heard this, and after laughing, he asked again: "Wei Jun, kiss and hide...... You're a rare celebrity in the world! β
"Of course, I know how to hide from each other." Wei Qi, who had always looked as usual, suddenly changed color at this time. "But I have been at home for many years, while studying the laws and regulations, and at the same time sitting and watching current affairs, how can I not know that this world is because there are no rules and laws, and it has fallen step by step to the present! The world collapses, and people's hearts are bad first! Only by upholding the law for the affairs of the world can we fix chaos and peace for the people! Wei Gu Yue is the first, although I am only a white body, how can I abolish the law for personal reasons?! β
Gongsun Xun suddenly admired, but couldn't help but step forward and hold this person's hands: "I thought that Wei Jun's trip was just to offer the strategy of Anhedong, but I didn't want to come to offer the plan of the world!" There is a lack of one person in the curtain to formulate the regulations, I don't know if Bo Ji is willing to give in? β
"Why don't you want to come for this?" Wei Qi returned to normal, proudly opposite.
ββββββI am worthy of the dividing lineββββββ
"Taizu cut Dong Linhedong, Wei coveted the Marquis in the Sorghum Pavilion, when the war was peaceful, coveted the high crown into the battlefield to pay homage, Taizu saw the covetous, high on the horse, and sighed. Coveted closer, bowed for a long time, and said: 'The general wants to please Dong Hu? If you want, you should stop here, if you don't want to, you should quickly attack the Bao Bo bandits and go south. Taizu was stunned: "What can you say? 'Qi Nai said: 'The Baibo bandits are known as 100,000, and they are invincible in war, but their head Guo Tai cannot control the various departments, and the general is elite in a hundred battles, if he attacks quickly, he will abandon the troops to avoid the Luliang Mountains in the north, thinking that he will be in trouble; If the general is stationed here, if he is relieved, then the troops will have a chance to breathe, and they will be forced to fight a decisive battle, and they can win in one battle. Taizu dismounted in horror, thanked him, and returned to worship as a military horse, with the law of palm. - "New Yanshu". Volume seventy-five. Biography XXV
