Chapter 434: Checks and Balances

After Yu Qingze's words were clarified, Yang Guangcai suddenly realized why his father Yang Jian chose to appoint Yu Qingze as the marshal of the Hebei Provincial Army shortly after Sha Bo Liuxing's southern invasion, and led the army out of the pass to attack the Turks. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info It turns out that the father wants to use the military strength of the two khans in the west to focus on the most powerful Sha Bo Luo tribe and weaken the strength of the Sha Bo Luo tribe.

"May I ask Duke Yu, has General Changsun Sheng returned to Chang'an to take up his post?" Remembering Changsun Sheng's policy of "long-distance friendship and close attack, separation from the strong and the weak" to the Turks in the past, Yang Guang blurted out to Yu Qingze.

"When Qing Ze led his army north, General Changsun had not yet returned to Chang'an, but there was definite news that the emperor would send General Changsun north to annex the state to assist His Highness in resisting the Turks."

As Yu Qing said, not long after he led his army out of the pass to attack the Turks, Changsun Sheng was dispatched from the far west to Bingzhou to report to Yang Guang.

Master and apprentice since the first year of the emperor after the winter farewell, has not met for nearly two years, this time Yang Jian transferred the chief Sun Sheng to the state and his own command, Yang Guang is unbelievable, that night in the main hall of Jinyang Palace grand banquet, convened the Taiwan bureaucracy, with the most solemn etiquette for the eldest Sun Sheng to pick up the wind and wash the dust.

Although Changsun Sheng is only an official car general, but everyone in the state knows that he and Yang Guang have a teacher-student friendship, so at the reception banquet, they all toasted to Changsun Sheng and congratulated, even if Changsun Sheng has a large amount of alcohol, he can't stand the persuasion of hundreds of people, and before an hour or two, he got drunk and unconscious.

Since Xiao E, An Ruoxi returned to Chang'an, Yang Guang lived alone in the side hall next to the main hall of Jinyang Palace for most of the day, in order to facilitate the disposal of official business at any time, tonight saw that Changsun Sheng was drunk by everyone early, and was busy with people to help him to the side hall to rest, and he dismissed everyone, personally urged the staff on duty to prepare sobering soup and clean clothes for Changsun Sheng, and waited in front of Changsun Sheng's bed, while reading and disposing of official documents, while waiting for Changsun Sheng to wake up.

Until the third watch of the Tianjiao, Yang Guang was so sleepy that his eyelids were fighting, and he was about to get up and go to his bed to sleep, when he suddenly heard Xian Yuluo, who was on duty at night outside the hall, whispered and asked: "Who is it, the third watch came in the middle of the night to disturb His Highness?" ”

"General Yu, the little Feng Yuqing is sent by the servants, and there is an urgent military report to be submitted to the King of Jin immediately."

As soon as he heard that there was an urgent military report outside the pass, Yang Guang's sleepiness suddenly disappeared by half, and he hurriedly ordered Xian Yuluo to bring people into the hall for questioning.

After a short time, Xian Yuluo walked into the side hall with a general who was not dressed as a general, and the person who came knelt down in front of Yang Guang, raised a military report with his hands above his head, and presented it to Yang Guang.

By the light in the hall, Yang Guang recognized at a glance that there was a big word "Jie" written on the envelope of the military newspaper, and he couldn't help but be happy, and quickly took out the military newspaper from the envelope, and held it in both hands close to the lampstand to take a look.

Sure enough, this is indeed a good news written by Yu Qingze.

Yu Qing said in the good news that he led the army out of the pass, until he arrived at the city of Baidaozhou, only to learn through the scouts of the army that Sha Boluo had led most of the men and horses from Baidaozhou to the west as early as ten days ago, and faced the troops of Apo and Datou Khans, and now the 50,000 horses led by his cronies and ministers were left in the city of Baidaozhou.

Yu Qing then immediately ordered the three armies to launch a fierce attack on Baidaozhou, after nearly ten days of repeated strong attacks, when he was about to attack the city of Baidaozhou, he did not expect that Sha Boluo was defeated by the combined forces of Apo and Datou Khans on the western front, and led the remnants of the defeated army to flee back to Baidaozhou. At this time, the military strength of the enemy and us has changed greatly, and Yu Qing had to order the suspension of the siege and send people to contact the two khans of Apo and Datou, who led the army to the east, and wanted to join forces with them, take Baidao Prefecture, and severely damage the headquarters of Sha Bo Liu.

The envoys who contacted Apo and Datou Khan had just left, but Sha Bolu, who was defeated and returned to Baidaozhou, took the initiative to send a letter to Yu Qingze, saying that if Kehe Dunyuwen wanted to change his surname, he insisted to Sui Gaozu Yang that he was willing to marry the Great Sui Emperor as a close relative, and from then on he would strike and repair, and the two countries would fight forever.

In the face of such an unexpected invitation and letter, Yu Qing did not dare to be arbitrary, so he ordered someone to return to the state at night and report to Yang Guang, asking for a decision.

The military report was also followed by an invitation and a letter from which the sand bowl had been sealed.

Yuwen was so arrogant that a princess of the former dynasty would actually take the initiative to change her surname to Yang and recognize her father, Emperor Yang Jian, as her father? Yang Guang rubbed his eyes and read the invitation and letter many times before confirming that he was not mistaken.

Undoubtedly, under the two-way attack of the two khans in the west and the Great Sui army, Sha Boliu and his wife were indeed in a desperate situation, so they would take the initiative to write to Yu Qingze and ask the Great Sui for peace. On the other hand, isn't this the perfect time to annihilate the Shabolu tribe in one fell swoop?

"Water, water...... Hey, where am I? Just when Yang Guang's heart was stirring, Changsun Sheng's unclear call suddenly came from the bed behind him.

"Sir, the army led by Yu Fu Shooting Station has besieged the main force of Sha Bo Luo in the city of Baidaozhou, and is about to join forces with the two Khans of Apo and Datou to attack the city and annihilate the main force of Sha Bo Lu in one fell swoop...... Yang Guang looked back and saw that Chang Sun Sheng had already sat up from the bed, and he didn't care about his hangover before waking up, so he ran to him in three steps and two steps, handed him the military newspaper and letter in his hand, and shouted excitedly.

"What?!" Changsun Sheng took the military newspaper and letter from Yang Guang's hand in a drunken daze, took it in his hand and only looked at it twice, then jumped up, stared at Yang Guang with a pair of eyes and shouted, "The big thing is not good, the sand bowl is slightly dangerous." Please Your Highness quickly pass on the king's order, and order Yu Qing to borrow my Great Sui army banner and submit to Sha Bo to help him repel the combined forces of Apo and Datou Khans. ”

Yang Guang couldn't believe his ears, and snatched the invitation and letter from Changsun Sheng's hand, read it aloud to Changsun Sheng, and said to him with a solemn expression: "Sir, you can listen carefully, this is a letter of invitation and letter written by Sha Bolu to Yu Servant, Yu Servant sent someone to report to this king, is to ask this king to make a decision, either accept Sha Bolu's request for peace, withdraw from Baidao Prefecture, or ignore his request for peace, and join forces with Apo and Datou to capture Baidaozhou and annihilate the main force of the Sha Boluo tribe, why does Mr. want this king to order, What about the anti-sand bowl? ”

"Give me a bowl of ginger soup, sober up the wine, and then explain the reason to His Highness in detail." Changsun Sheng staggered forward two steps, shook his head and instructed Cersei, who was accompanying Yang Guang on night duty in the hall.

"What I said just now is actually a countermeasure." Changsun Sheng raised his neck and drank a bowl of sobering soup served by Dry Sese, sweating all over, suddenly feeling refreshed, and said to Yang Guang unhurriedly, "Turkic people, tiger and wolf nature, capricious. A year ago, when the five khans joined forces to invade the south, Apo Khan reneged on the covenant and made enemies with Sha Bo Lu because of the envoys sent by my Great Sui court to give him a wolf's head, so he ignored the alliance he made with Sha Bo Liu, openly accepted Apo, and joined forces with him to conquer Sha Bo Liu, like such people, once his combined forces annihilated the main force of the Sha Bo Luo tribe, Your Highness, please think, can my Great Sui court expect them to stop the war from now on and live in peace with my Great Sui? ”
