Luo Zhaoyun can feel the patriotic sentiment of Qu Tutong and other generals, these old ministers, mainstays, and feudal hierarchical thinking are serious, and they are even more convinced of being loyal to the court and contributing to the country, and the desire to save the saint is also very strong.

Some young generals, or the children of the gate lords, and the commanders of the border guards, their attitudes were not positive, and they seemed to have been disappointed in Yang Guang and the imperial court in their hearts.

"General Qu, please don't worry too much, on the way back, Luo has already thought of a strategy against the enemy, although he is not completely sure, but he is also sixty or seventy percent confident that he can repel the Turkic army."

"What? Do you really have a good plan to retreat from the enemy? When the generals in the big tent heard his words, they were all surprised, hundreds of thousands of Turkic cavalry had already broken into the Yanmen Pass, and if the tiger released from the cage, how could it be easily surrendered?

"General Luo, is this true?"

"Yes, how to withdraw the troops, could it be that General Luo brought hundreds of thousands of troops to the border?" After Song Laosheng finished speaking, he shook his head, thinking that it was impossible, the Great Sui was now in smoke everywhere, the government soldiers were disintegrated, and the suppression of local rebels was understaffed, how could he instantly gather hundreds of thousands of troops to come here.

Luo Zhaoyun looked at the eager, shocked, delighted, and suspicious eyes of the generals, and calmed in his heart, everything was ready, only the east wind was owed, as long as the grassland Kedun received a letter for help, and the troops of Zhuo County and Yuyang County drove straight into the grassland, so that Shibi Khan learned the news that the probability of retreating was very high, and the army of King Qin came one after another, so that the people of the grassland knew that it was impossible to quickly capture Taiyuan County and south of the Yellow River, and they would naturally retreat.

Of course, there is a premise, the county town of Yanmen cannot be broken, and Yang Guang cannot die early, otherwise Shibi Khan and others will have no fear and will storm the Xinkou area, and the generals and ministers of the Sui Dynasty, because the dragons without a leader may be chaotic, and the heroes in various places will rise together, and the world will be in chaos, and it will be difficult to condense into a force to resist the Turkic cavalry.

Qu Tutong was anxious in his heart, and his words were unfounded, just listening to him flickering like this, it was really uneasy, and asked: "What is the strategy to break the enemy, say it quickly, so that the generals can refer to it in detail, and jointly deduce, if everyone agrees, it is good to act together and go out of the customs to rescue the driver together." ”

Luo Zhaoyun said: "The Turkic army of three or four hundred thousand entered Yanmen Pass, but they did not go south to attack Taiyuan County, which shows that they have no bottom in their hearts, and they dare not enter the Central Plains rashly, fearing that the back road will be blocked and finally wiped out in the Central Plains. Shibi Khan endured for five years, has been planning for a long time, to fight against the Great Sui, this time coincided with the Holy Northern Tour, just by the Turks to use the attack, but the gathering of the tribes is also in a hurry, the follow-up arrangements must not be done, so he poured out of the nest, entered the Central Plains, want to destroy the Holy and civil and military ministers first, so that the upper echelons of the court collapsed, the Central Plains is in chaos, our top priority is to rescue Yanmen County, rush into the county, help defend the city, protect the safety of Your Majesty, this is the primary task. ”

Qu Tutong and the others pondered for a moment, and some people questioned: "What General Luo said, although there is some truth, but if the symptoms are not cured, and the Yanjun City is held, it does not mean that hundreds of thousands of Turkic cavalry can retreat. ”

"General Luo, someone has already mentioned such a point of view just now, but everyone does not agree." Chen Liang explained.

Luo Zhaoyun smiled: "What I said is the primary task, not the only task, that is the fundamental and prerequisite for us to save the driver, otherwise, when the city of Yanmen County is broken, we will discuss the rescue, in fact, it is like an empty word, and it has no practical meaning." ”

"Oh, the old man would love to hear it, what's the second plan?" Qu Tutong heard that the other party seemed to have a complete set of plans, divided into primary and secondary tasks, all of which could be added up to work, and he was immediately very curious.

Luo Zhaoyun looked at the generals' hopes and consultative eyes, calmly and calmly, and continued: "The second is a plan for doubtful soldiers, Your Majesty sent someone to send the text to Xijing and Dongdu, and then spread it all over the counties to recruit troops to King Qin, and the army is already on the way. However, because Yanmen County is located in the north, the distance between the counties is different, and the duration of the march is naturally different, some arrive early, and some are still on the way, relying on our current strength alone, it is not enough to fight against the Turkic cavalry and defeat it, so we must fight psychological warfare and create momentum. Presumably, the Turkic scouts have been constantly reconnoitring the reinforcements outside Xinkou, and we can stage a scene of continuous reinforcements arriving from afar day and night, so that Shibi Khan and the tribal chieftains thought that the Great Sui reinforcements came with two or three hundred thousand, and they could break their fighting spirit to go south, and felt that the purpose of this trip to the Central Plains could not be realized, and it was not far from retreating. ”

"Wonderful!" Many generals suddenly realized, the case was amazing, such a suspicious military strategy, so that the Turkic cavalry psychological feeling that the general trend is gone, they carry insufficient grain and grass, even if they seize the grain and grass in the counties of Yanmen County, Chengyi, small towns, are also limited storage, after plundering at most hundreds of thousands of troops to last for a few months, Shibi Khan and others will not be stupid to fight here, once they find that there is no advantage, the steppe knights will naturally return to the tribe.

Qu Tutong pondered for a moment and said: "This plan can be used, it can hit the morale of the Turkic army and disintegrate their fighting spirit and ambitions, but whether Shibi Khan can withdraw his troops as soon as possible, or to the end, no one is sure, the situation is still full of variables, and the old man is willing to hear the third strategy." ”

At this time, no one thought that Luo Zhaoyun was talking nonsense, and he was talking nonsense, relying on the above two strategies alone, once realized, at least a little more hope, and with four or five points of certainty, the Turkic army would retreat, so they all wanted to know if there were other strategies to cooperate.

Chen Liang, Song Laosheng, Pei Qiantong, Yao Junsu, Li Jiancheng, Yang Shixian, Yu Wenshi and others also paid attention, secretly thinking in their hearts that this Luo Cheng is really worthy of his reputation, as soon as he arrives, he has a strategy to break the enemy, they have been here for several days, and they have no countermeasures to get along if they want to break their minds.

"Third, it's also the key to breaking the enemy!" Luo Zhaoyun paused and said: "We must make Shibi Khan and those grassland chiefs anxious, they can't stay for a moment, and they want to return to the grassland as soon as possible, so that the siege will be lifted." ”

"Oh, how can I make Shibi Khan leave in a hurry so that he can give up Yanmen County, which is at his fingertips?" Everyone was puzzled, but they were addicted to talking.

"Have you ever thought about the siege of Gaozu Liu Bang Baideng in the early days of the Western Han Dynasty? How similar is the scene of my Great Sui today, when Chen Ping offered advice and bribed the Yan family of Mao Dunshan Yu, he got out of danger, and my third strategy is convenient for this. ”

Qu Tutong shook his head and said: "This, some of us also thought of it, but the route ahead is blocked, and it is impossible to rush through, and it takes longer to enter the grassland from other routes, and no one knows where Kedun is at the moment, and there is no token to see her, even if she can see it, Kedun is not a Yan clan, and it is unknown whether he can persuade Shibi Khan." ”

Luo Zhaoyun smiled and said: "We are not bribes, it is indeed very difficult to persuade this Princess Yicheng to return to Shibi Khan, so when I came from Zhuo County, I had already mobilized the remaining soldiers and horses in Liaodong, went out of Yuyang County, bypassed Yanshan, and entered the grassland. ”
