Anger doesn't solve anything, it makes people lose their minds. Although Li Tai was enraged by the arrogant attitude of the Turkic envoy, he tried to calm himself down after venting his emotions a little, and after some further thought, he found that he still couldn't fucking bear it!

As the only overlord of Mobei today, the Turkic are undoubtedly powerful. And Yuwentai was able to choose to establish good diplomatic relations with the Turks before they made their fortunes, which is indeed very forward-looking. Li Tai, as the successor leader of the overlord, is of course happy to inherit and maintain this diplomatic relationship, even if it is at a certain price.

But this does not mean that he has to cater to all kinds of hegemonic demands of the Turks without a bottom line, such as giving certain material compensation, including jointly sending troops to fight against hostile forces, and even accepting Turkic women as wives.

But now the attitude of the Turks is clearly to contempt and bully Li Tai, the newly ascended hegemonic leader, who is insatiable and has to make inches, and actually wants to set up a khan court in the Hetao!

If even this request is agreed, not only will the Hetao Plain be surrendered, but the northern defense line of the entire Western Wei regime will also be opened to the Turkic portal, and there will be no need to say anything about development and growth from now on, and it will directly become a puppet under the iron hooves of the Turks!

Li Tai vaguely remembered that this Turkic wooden pole khan should be one of the most important khans in Turkic history, and it was during his reign that the Turkic power developed by leaps and bounds and reached the peak of its strength. And from this condition put forward by the person, it can also be seen that this person is cunning, fierce and ambitious.

This wooden Khan should have seen the turbulent period of the transfer of power in the Western Wei Dynasty, and he did not know much about Li Tai and despised it, and wanted to test Li Tai's bottom line and temperament through this aggressive pressure. If Li Tai's response is not tough enough, then it will be inevitable that the Turks will intensify their infiltration and occupation of the Hetao.

For Li Tai, this Turk is like just completing a period of main quest and feeling bored in his heart, and then another opponent emerges, and since it has advanced here, it is impossible to avoid it.

After weighing it in his heart, Li Tai gradually made a decision. Although it was already dark, he still summoned a group of confidants and generals to the Prime Minister's Mansion to discuss matters. In addition to He Ruodun, Liang Shiyan, Li Yunxin, Shi Jing and other generals who entered the dynasty from Shannan, there were also Yu Wengui, Yang Zhong, Li Xian and others.

When everyone gathered in the direct hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Li Tai spoke: "The Turkic envoys entered Beijing and wanted to use the former marriage alliance of the Chinese and foreign governments to coerce me into ceding the land of the Hetao, and this matter must not be answered! Therefore, I want to fight the Turks, and I will summon you to the palace today to discuss this matter!"

When the generals heard this, their faces changed slightly, and before the others could speak out, He Ruodun had already stood up from the table first, and said to Li Tai: "The thief is arrogant, and he should be punished!" The minister has been ordered to do not envoy before, and he has not pursued Lord Lang to fight for a long time, but now please be the vanguard of the army and swear to break the thief!"

He Ruodun often boasted of being a general under the command of Lord Lang, but he repeatedly missed the battle, and before he saw Gao Le being awarded the rank of general because of Zhan Heluo, he couldn't help but feel more envious and jealous. Don't say that he is just attacking the Turks, even if he says that he wants to attack Jinyang now, he will be the vanguard.

Yu Wengui hesitated, and said with some hesitation: "The situation in Fang Jin's country is newly settled, and the people are at peace, if you rush to fight with a strong enemy, I am afraid it will be even more unstable."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liang Shiyan on the side immediately spoke: "It is normal for Hua Zhenggong to hesitate like this, and it is precisely because of this that thieves are arrogant and vainly trying to make mistakes. If I attack it again, it will be a surprise and an unpreparedness, and I will have the opportunity to do so!"

Yu Wengui's words were also one of the reasons why Li Tai had hesitated before, although Liang Shiyan also provided a reason from a tactical point of view, but rashly engaging a strong enemy like the Turks would inevitably bring a lot of impact to the order of the country. Moreover, since the beginning of the new year, Li Tai has made a lot of moves in the military and political fields, and it is precisely the need for a stable situation to ensure the smooth implementation of these changes, and it is indeed not suitable for large-scale diplomatic warfare.

At this time, Yang Zhong also spoke: "Hu Zhi's temperament, fear of power and strength, so he dared to make a rebellious posture this time, all because I didn't dare to betray the alliance and refuse it. If you can't be strong this time, it will

Seeing me as a slave, even more disrespectful, more and more demanding, never peaceful! Instead of bribing heavy goods to make it difficult to get happy, it is better to save the materials and reward my soldiers to please the thief!"

Hearing Yang Zhong say this, all the generals also nodded yes. In the final analysis, although they were poor in the Western Wei Dynasty, they were also horizontal, including the previous Chinese and foreign governments, although they had some weaknesses in their dealings with the Turks, but it was not because they were afraid of the Turks from the bottom of their bones.

Li Tai may also have to think about whether there is room to continue to maintain the relationship above the bottom line for the sake of the overall situation, but when the problem is delegated to the generals to discuss, that is, Lao Tzu doesn't even want to lose money, and the main thing is to do it! Extortion into the den of thieves, you really want to lose your heart!

Yu Wengui saw that the generals were going to fight, so he spoke again: "The morale is available, which is really commendable. However, this is the case with national conditions, and it cannot be ignored either. Even if it is attacked this time, the army will be out of the fortress. If General Liang's preface is unexpected, if he can win by surprise, there is no need to mobilize the people and hear about his neighbors."

Li Tai also nodded after hearing this, what Yu Wengui said was exactly what he wanted, the current Western Wei really couldn't afford to fight a large-scale battle that lasted too long, not only the situation did not allow it, but also the financial resources.

The previous Eastern Expedition of the Chinese and Foreign Governments had almost exhausted the accumulation of materials in Guanzhong, and what Li Tai faced after entering the customs was that the treasury was empty. Before the materials of Shannan Province were imported into Guanzhong, the consumption of people and horses was still the materials obtained from the negotiation of the Northern Qi, and as for the pensions of the fallen soldiers, they were all maintained by the goods imported from Shannan Province.

At this time, Li Xian, who was more familiar with the Turkic situation, also spoke: "The Turks are afraid of light horses, sharp bows and arrows, and battle against the bases, but they are not strong. If you attack with surprise troops, it will be difficult to inflict heavy damage on them and cause no great harm, but after turning your eyes, you will have to be frequently disturbed and tired of coping. Therefore, this attack must be directed at the thief's vital point and hurt his heart, so that Huma will not dare to peep south in a short time!"

As everyone spoke and calculated, all aspects of the scale and objectives of the military operation were gradually supplemented and improved.

Although the current Turks have replaced Rouran and become the new steppe hegemon, the current situation can still be said to be big but not strong, although the scope of control is very broad, but its own strength has not yet reached a new level.

Historically, Yang Zhong attacked Jinyang on behalf of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Turkic coalition army, and his evaluation of the Turks after his return was: Although the Turkic soldiers were vicious, the punishment and reward were very light, and there were many leaders and orders, and the upper and lower constraints were not strict, not to mention that it was difficult to restrain them. The previous envoys said that the Turks were strong, but they hoped that the imperial court would give more rewards to the Turkic envoys, so that they could get more rewards when they went to the Turks.

The cohesion of a political regime and the development of the military system require a process, and it is only three years since the rise of the Turks to replace the Rouran, during which the annexation of the Tiele tribes, the reception of the remnants of the Rouran, etc., militarily is still in a stage of a large number of people fighting a tailwind war. Starting from several battles between the Northern Qi and the Turks, there is still a significant gap in combat effectiveness between the current Turkic armed forces and the elite Jinyang soldiers.

Li Tai didn't dare to say that the elite troops under his command could steadily defeat the Jinyang soldiers of the Northern Qi Dynasty, but there was no significant gap in combat effectiveness, and if the gap in the quality of the soldiers was too large, it would not be something that could be made up by tactical use.

After a night of discussion, this time the battle plan was formulated, the goal was to go to the top Turkic elites, including the wooden pole khan, even if not to kill a large number of Turkic living forces, but also to destroy their upper personnel structure as much as possible.

Let these Turkic magnates really feel the threat of death, and when they interact with Western Wei in the future, they will choose a more cautious and respectful attitude and approach.

At present, the Turkic Khan Tent is still in the Yang of Jinshan, and even if it later moved to Yudujun Mountain, it is still located in the far north of the desert, which is a difficult position for the current Western Wei army to hit. However, at present, the Turkic Khan was withdrawing from the Northern Qi crossing, and the army had just arrived south of Yinshan, which provided an opportunity for the Western Wei side to make a surprise attack.

So Li Tai first sent Li Yunxin to lead a thousand elite cavalry, carrying precious gifts such as gold, silver, brocade and silk, and went north through Yuanzhou to bribe the wooden pole Khan in the name of comforting his army, and said that there would be more gifts to discuss the marriage contract and appointment

Lai Zhong led 2,000 elite cavalry to transport grain and grass materials and continued to march north, locking the position of the Turkic Khan and the magnates of his country.

In order to avoid the panic and turmoil of the people in the country, Li Tai will lead 10,000 elite horsemen to the north along Luoshui in the name of inspecting the northern Shaanxi prefectures, and after arriving in Yanzhou, he will take a short rest and wait for the opportunity, and after the first two roads of men and horses are in place, he will immediately go north from Xiazhou to Hetao and attack the Turkic camp at the southern foot of Yinshan!

As soon as this operational plan was drawn up, all kinds of combat preparations began immediately. All the treasures seized from the treasury of Nanliang in Jiangling before were all transported from Shannan without money at this time.

Seeing all kinds of treasures and goods being packed into trucks and ready to be transported to the Turkic army, the Turkic envoys in Chang'an were also very happy, and they felt more and more that the Western Wei Dynasty was a completely undefended warehouse for them, and they were very happy to eat and take. If they were not responsible for leading the way, these envoys would not even want to leave Chang'an.
