Hedong, Daibei.

There are nine stops in the world, headed by Yanmen.

Xiongguan is close to the mountain and dangerous, and it is high on the mountain. On the east and west wings, the mountains are undulating. The Great Wall of the Ridge, with its winding momentum.

The terrain of Yanmen Pass is very dangerous, and it is a place for ancient soldiers to fight.

During the Warring States Period, Li Mu, the general of Zhao State, was stationed in Yanmen, relying on the danger of closing the city, prudently defending, and defeating 100,000 Xiongnu horses; The famous generals of the Han Dynasty, Li Guang, Wei Qing, and Huo Qubing once led their troops to fight with the Xiongnu in Liao, and won a complete victory.

To the east of the river, there are two Great Walls.

One is the outer Great Wall, in the north of Mayi County, west to the Yellow River, east to Taihang.

In addition, there is an inner Great Wall, which is connected to the outer Great Wall from the west to the head village, and reaches Hengshan Mountain in the east. It is integrated with the building annoyance pass, Yanmen pass, Bauhinia pass, and the inverted horse.

South of Yanmen Pass, is the center of Hedong, the important town of Taiyuan. To the north of Yanmen, there is the Mayi Basin, and then to the north of the Great Wall, it is Dingxiang.

Outside the Great Wall, is the Yinshan desert south grassland, when the Sui Dynasty received the defeat of the Tuli little Khan to the south, he was placed in the south of the desert, he was named the Khan of the people, since then the Eastern Turks have been set up in the south of the Khan, and no longer in the depths of the steppe in the north of the desert.

In the later period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty were opposed to each other in the east and west, and wars continued. The Mobei Turks took advantage of the situation to rise, defeated Rouran, and succeeded to the Mobei.

The Turks control hundreds of thousands, and their territory is thousands of miles.

Zhou Qi wanted to be a backup, so his children lost a lot of money.

The Northern Zhou Dynasty also welcomed the daughter of the Turks, making the Wooden Pole Khan arrogantly declare that he had two sons in the south who were very filial and never worried about lack of food and clothing.

By the time the Northern Zhou Dynasty destroyed Qi, the north was unified, the Central Plains began to be strong, and the Northern Weekend, with the daughter of King Zhao as the princess and pro-Turkic. Later, Yang Jian won the world, and the Sui Dynasty Zhou, the princess of Qianjin thought of revenge, and said that she moved Sha Boluo Khan to attack Sui, but the result was repeatedly defeated by the Sui army.

Later, Yang Jian used the famous general Changsun Sheng's strategy to leave the strong and the weak, so that the Turks were divided into two. Since then, the Turks have been in civil strife for a long time, and Sha Bolu was finally defeated, and had to submit to the Sui. When his son Dulan Khan was established, he was at odds with Sui, so Yang Jian used a plot to divide Dulan and the Tuli brothers, so that they could attack each other.

Although the Tuli Khan was later defeated by Dulan, Yang Jian still sent Changsun Sheng to take him to Monan, put him in the border fortress, build a city to live, and gave the name Yili Zhendou Qimin Khan, and successively married two clan daughters to the princess.

Later, Du Lan was killed, Mobei was in turmoil, and the five khans competed for the throne.

So the Sui Dynasty sent Yang Guang and Yang Su to support the Qimin Khan to the north and defeated the tribes, so that the Qimin could be unified to the Turkic eastern tribes.

For more than ten years after that, as the Qimin who was single-handedly supported by the Sui Dynasty, he was very respectful to the Sui, and there was no boundless trouble in the north.

In the fifth year of the great cause, Qimin died, and he succeeded to the throne.

Originally, although Shibi felt that the strength of the Eastern Turks had recovered and controlled 400,000 strings, he was a little arrogant, but after seeing the Sui Dynasty's great cause of destroying Tuyuhun in five years and Goguryeo in nine years, he was still a little jealous.

Shi Bi didn't dare to mess around, but Yang Guang was not the kind of quiet master.

In the spring of the tenth year of the Great Cause, Luo Cheng had secretly played to the emperor when he was gathering, saying that the Eastern Turks had controlled 400,000 strings, was arrogant and arrogant, and had a heart of disobedience, so that the emperor was extremely careful and must not easily go to Mobei to inspect.

As a result, when the emperor heard this, he listened.

But the emperor didn't think about how to appease Shibi first and develop with peace of mind, but he thought about how to strike first.

So the emperor called his foreign minister, Pei Shiju.

After Pei Shiju listened to the emperor's words, he also felt that the Turks had become a big disaster, and besides, Tuyuhun and Goguryeo had been pacified, and the Western Turks had been tossed by the Sui Dynasty for many years, and they didn't dare to fight against Tianwei at all, so it was logical that they should also fight the Eastern Turks.

Yang Guang asked Pei Shiju to formulate a strategy and start Bi Khan.

Pei Shiju's method is very simple, saying that the way of the eldest Sun Sheng to divide the Turks is good, we can draw the gourd and do it again.

At that time, his father, Tuli Qimin Khan, was originally a little Khan in the east, but he was instigated by the Sui Dynasty, so he got up and did a little work with Shabo, but he lost and fled to his father of the Sui Dynasty in Monan.

Now Pei Shiju is doing the same, he sent someone to quietly meet with Shibi's younger brother Qi Jishe, saying that your eldest brother is disrespectful to the emperor, this is self-defeating, so the emperor is going to kill him now, and he is ready to let you be the Turkic Great Khan, and he will marry the princess to you.

The emperor even conceived the name of Khan for Qi Ji, so he named the Khan of the south and wanted to help him fight against Shibi.

But as a result, although they are brothers, this is auspicious

But there was no eldest brother Shi Bi Meng, not only was he not happy when he heard it, but he was very scared, he directly tied up the envoy, and then sent it to Shi Bi to tell the whole story.

At this point, Bike was very unhappy.

I control 400,000 strings, the Turkic Khan with a territory of 10,000 miles, and I still pay tribute to you Yang Guang, not only are you not grateful, but you want to mess with me?

So Shibi directly cut off the envoy, and then asked people to send their heads back to the Central Plains.

and is ready to sever relations with Sui and become a great khan who stands side by side with Yang Guang.

Yang Guang looked at it here, why didn't things develop as expected.

Pei Shiju inquired around, saying that I found out that there is a person named Shi Shu Huxi under Shibi, who is very fortunate to be favored by Shibi, and this guy is very capable, if he can kill him, then Shibi is just a barbarian, not to be afraid.

The emperor listened, well, yes, him.

So Pei Shiju found a reason to trick this Shi Shu Hu Xi to the Sui Realm on the border, and then sent someone to kill him.

After the killing, Yang Guang also sent someone to send Shi Shu Huxi's head back to Shi Bi, and said that Shi Shu Hu Xi was going to betray the Turks and surrender, and Yang Guang was cleaning the portal for Shi Bi.

Such a bad excuse, Shi Bi is not stupid, how can he believe it.

was already extremely dissatisfied, but now it broke out.

At this time, Yang Guang thought that a few actions should be stopped.

He planned to be more ruthless, and decided to take the Xiaoguo army north to Monan, go to the door of Shibi's house to show the powerful combat effectiveness of the Great Sui, and deter this guy who doesn't know the height of the sky.

After Shibi heard the news, he was naturally quiet on the surface, and he also showed great respect, saying that he would personally cut the grass for the emperor to open the way.

Secretly, he issued an order to send arrows and recruited all troops and horses to come to converge, preparing to kill Yang Guang.

So, when Yang Guang triumphantly set off from Jinyang Palace in Taiyuan in the autumn of the eleventh year of the Great Cause, crossed Yanmen, and just entered the territory of Mayi, Shibi led hundreds of thousands of horsemen to kill them mightily.

Fortunately, the Kedun of Shibi Khan, that is, the queen of the Turks, was a princess of the Sui Dynasty, and Yang Jian married a princess to Qimin, but died not long after, so Yang Jian sent a daughter of the clan to marry Qimin, and named him Princess Yicheng.

Princess Yicheng became Qimin's Kedun, after the death of Qimin Khan, Qimin's son Shibi succeeded to the throne as Khan, according to the Turkic system, the father died and the son succeeded, inheriting not only the Khan position and property soldiers and horses, but also the stepmother.

So Princess Yicheng became the Khan of Shibi again.

Anyway, although Princess Yicheng is in Turkic, she still misses her family in her heart.

She quietly sent someone to send a letter to Yang Guang, telling him that Shibi had led troops to kill.

Fortunately, Yang Guang hurriedly ran back to this letter, but as soon as he ran to Yanmen, the army of Shibi surrounded him.

Yanmen City is strong, Yang Guang has 100,000 Xiaoguo troops around him, and there are also a large number of officials, palace people, and the original people in Yanmen City, etc., a total of 150,000 people in the city, but the grain and grass are only for 20 days.

What's even worse is that in just a few days, Shibi Khan, who surrounded Yang Guang, divided his troops to capture the cities of Yanmen County.

Forty-one cities in Yanmen County were captured, and in addition to Yanmen, only 25,000 men and horses of the Xiaoguo Left Army led by Luo Siye were left, and they held Lao County.

Yang Guang stood on Yanmen City, looking at the overwhelming Turkic cavalry under the city, his face turned pale with fright.

He never thought that the Turkic dog raised by their Yang family would suddenly turn his face into a Turkic wolf, at this time, he remembered Luo Cheng's reminder, but it was too late to regret it.

Holding his nine-year-old son Zhao Wang Yang Gao, Yang Guang looked to the east, only hoping that Luo Cheng could lead the army to come to King Qin's rescue as soon as possible!

A sharp arrow suddenly fired, almost grazing Yang Guang's face, and the arrow was nailed to the gatepost of the city tower behind the emperor, and it was still buzzing.

The young King Zhao cried all of a sudden.

"Please retreat to the city!" A group of guards hurriedly stepped forward with shields, and Yang Guang rushed down to the city in a panic with the child.
