Chapter 619: That's right, I sold you
How many soldiers and horses did the Eastern Turks have, 600,000? is still less than or greater than, in fact, Da Sui does not have an accurate number in his heart.
The countless detectives sent out before the expedition brought back the answer that it was about 600,000, but the princess of He Dunyi became a million, and said that it was one million.
So who should be listened to, it's hard to tell, the intelligence brought back by careful probing, the authenticity should be no problem, but the Turkic Kehetun has the right to participate in military affairs, and it stands to reason that people's words are also credible, after all, they are their own people.
But no matter whether it is 600,000 or 1 million, it is the same in Yang Guang's eyes, the soldiers are not many but fine, and the generals are not brave but wise.
In the Gobi Wilderness, two hundred miles south of Dujin Mountain, a Turkic army appeared on the skyline of the setting sun in the distance, because the other party was condescending, so Yuwenshu could not judge how many people there were on the other side, but they knew his strength at a glance.
Yu Wenshu has already set up a village, this is the last time he has set up a village, and after a night's rest, the army will go north with all its might, taking the initiative to find an opportunity for a decisive battle.
"The sun is about to set, the yang energy is going down, now it is the north wind, the wind is helping its momentum, it is not suitable to engage in battle," Yang Youce Ma stood beside Yu Wenshu and said lightly.
In fact, both of them were in the camp, and they could still see clearly in the distance, but if they were sitting on horseback, they could see it even more clearly.
In this place of Turki, the south wind blows during the day, the north wind blows in the evening, and the east, west, north and south winds blow randomly at night, anyway, the wind is non-stop, Yang Yue feels that the enemy is in the upper hand position at the moment, and it is not suitable for his side to engage in battle, if the enemy comes to attack, he should reject it with a camp.
In a place like this, you have to pay attention to the direction of the wind, two armies facing each other or two people fighting, the upper wind and the lower wind represent the advantage and slight momentum, which is how it comes from, which shows how important the wind direction was when marching in ancient times.
"What if we attack with fire?" Yu Juluo frowned and said: "It is still necessary to send an infantry army to form a formation outside the camp to prevent the enemy from approaching our camp and setting it on fire, otherwise it will burn the company camp." ”
Yu Wenshu said with a smile: "There are three trenches outside the camp, and now that it is approaching evening, they should not come over, and they will not be able to come." ”
For an experienced commander like him, the camp had already been arranged, with 200,000 main forces under his command, divided into six large battalions, each of which echoed, with trenches, traps, thistles, and horse walls on the periphery, to prevent Turkic night attacks.
On the side of the Great Sui, how many thistles were sprinkled somewhere, there were all numbers, who was responsible for sprinkling them, and who was responsible for taking them back before the army was pulled.
There are many places, and there are few places, and the Turks are not clear.
And the Turks have been fighting with the Great Sui for so many years, so they naturally know the methods of the Sui army, so they don't dare to attack rashly.
The distance between the two sides in a straight line is seven or eight miles, but no one has moved.
"Inform Shi Xiang, Xiao Jun, Xin Shixiong, Dugu Sheng, Qu Tutong, and Xue Shixiong to raise their vigilance, and you must not act rashly without my general order," Yu Wenshu ordered.
Yu Juluo nodded: "Sixty miles to the east, it is the army that comes to Hu'er, what he means is that he will involve the enemy forces on the periphery, and we and Yu Zhongwen will go straight to the tooth tent." ”
"It's better not to," Yang Yue frowned, "What are all his subordinates?" Once it is dispersed, it will be very disadvantageous to me, for the sake of safety, it is better to make a plan to finish, southern soldiers, unreliable. ”
Yu Wenshu had a deep understanding of this, nodded and said: "Although Rong Gong governs the army strictly, but this time it is really in a hurry, the recruitment of troops has only been a few months now, there is no time for training, and the ten Ying Yanglang generals under his command have never heard of it, counting on them, I am afraid it will affect us." ”
"And they're here for nothing?" Yu Jura laughed.
Yang Yue laughed: "They, it's more effective to not do it than to do it, but Laihu'er must be unwilling to be a bystander, so he still has to find something for him." ”
That is, Yang Yue dared to say this to Hu'er, mainly because of his high seniority, he followed Yang Su to quell the rebellion in Jiangnan before, Yang Yue was there at the time, he was in the army, and he has always been the first person under Yang Su.
But he didn't dare to say that about Pei Ju, because Pei Ju was his old boss, and during the Kaihuang period, Pei Ju was the internal history order, and he was the internal history squire.
Yu Wenshu pondered for a moment and said, "I don't seem to be able to control Laihu'er, right?" ”
Yu Juluo pursed his lips: "Nominally, it can, but in essence, it shouldn't be managed." ”
Yuwen Shu smiled: "Then I really don't dare to order others." ”
The eastern, central and western armies, the three chiefs, nominally Yuwenshu is the biggest, he is the main force of the Chinese army, or the commonplace among the three dukes, but this time there is not a generalissimo Yang Guang Comrade Yang Guang, so they are at the same level, they can give opinions, but they can't give orders, come to protect the children and Pei Ju, do you dare to order the two of you?
Yang Yue suddenly changed the topic and said, "The long-haired guest who came out of Gong Xu's tent last night is a Turk, right?" ”
The corners of Yuwenshu's mouth moved slightly, why are you spying on me?
I saw him nod and said: "I arranged it in Turkic, and I was about to tell you about it, the eighteen departments of the grassland, the fourth department of the East of the third Ashina, are not around the tooth tent, where do you say they will be?" ”
Yujuluo frowned suddenly: "Ashina Dubi (Jieli), in charge of the Khitan, Yao, Xi and other tribes, is the Mohelu (military commander) in the eastern Turkic region, and the number of cavalry under his command is quite a lot, but at the moment, the Khitan Yaoya has been attached to my Great Sui, and they are from the east to protect their children, so he is not in the tent, and naturally he is not in the east." ”
Yang Yue couldn't help but laugh and said, "Yu Zhongwen is still from the west, so can it prove that Du Bi is not in the west either?" ”
Yu Wenshu nodded and said: "The Mobei region is vast, and hundreds of thousands of people are marching, and sometimes they may not be able to collide, maybe Yu Zhongwen didn't find out about it, and he still had to tell them to expand the scope of ranger reconnaissance." ”
"Something is wrong," Yang Yue suddenly frowned, "Your Majesty is in the south, what will happen if Dubi suddenly appears in the south?" ”
Yuwen Shu was stunned: "Isn't it?" Our three-way army stretched side by side for hundreds of miles, and if he went around to His Majesty's tent, we would not be able to detect it. ”
Yang Yue frowned and said: "Be cautious, you still have to send someone to play Your Majesty, be careful to fortify, there are left and right Reserve Mansions, Yin Shishi, Dong Chun, Mai Tiecane, Jing Shixiong, Zhang Dinghe, and Pei Renji are all by Your Majesty's side, it should be fine." ”
Yu Wenshu felt that it was unlikely, because he arranged Zhao Deyan in the Turks, and he was next to Dubi, and the location of the emperor's camping was unknown to outsiders, so how could he be attacked by Zhao Deyan after being aggressive?
Left and right prepare the mansion, and organize 72,000 people, which is not vegetarian.
"Come, hurry to Your Majesty's tent, and tell you about this, you must be fast," Yang Yue had already ordered before Yu Wenshu spoke.
People are marching chiefs, general staff zhang zhang, some things can directly cross Yuwen Shu.
After Yuwen Shu was slightly surprised, he nodded and said: "It is indeed necessary to pay attention, being guarded and being unprepared, after all, are two different things." ”
The three men then returned to their tents.
The Turkic army in the distance slowly retreated in the last rays of the setting sun.
Who is Yang Yue? He has been engaged in intrigues and tricks all his life, and he has always sent people to keep an eye on Yuwenshu's side, including Yujuluo and his generals.
He is like this, he guards both inside and outside, which is why Yang Su governs the army the strictest, but there has been no mutiny in the army, because they are all nipped in the bud.
With an army of more than 200,000 and 200,000 minds, can you do it if you don't guard against it?
Yuwen said that Yang Yue was completely unaware of the details in Turkic, but this time he knew about it, and he had already sent someone to secretly dispose of the details.
The connection between Zhao Deyan and Yu Wenshu was temporarily severed.
Throughout the Great Sui, many gate lords have informants in the Turks, especially the Xianbei people, because the appearance of the Xianbei people is almost the same as the Turks, and they are proficient in the Turkic language, after all, they used to be northern nomads, and like the Turks, they all belong to the Mongolian language.
The Xianbei people originated from Xianbei Mountain, that is, Menggehan Mountain in the Youzhong Banner of Xing'an Mengke in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.
Of course, the Turks also have many informants in the Great Sui.
The two countries are at war, and there are swords and swords on the bright side, and there are also undercurrents surging in private.
Yang Yue can be said to be the entire Great Sui, with the most Turkic people under his hands, and Yang Guang's position was sold by him.
Yu Wenshu actually didn't tell the truth, the tip he received was that he was halfway from the east to Dujin Mountain, and suddenly withdrew to the east.
As for why withdraw? Zhao Deyan didn't know.
But Yang Yue knows, because he did it, do you think it's about Yu culture and smuggling with the Turks? Where did so many Turkic horses come from in the Yang family? Not flying anyway.
Yu Wenshu also knew that the disappearance of Dubi was an unstable factor, but the emperor's will had already been said, and it was necessary to fight quickly, and the country behind the ass had become a pot of porridge, and the army was short of food and grass, and it could not withstand the war of attrition.
So right now, even if he is worried, he can only bite the bullet and find a chance to fight.
The emperor was not far behind his ass, and even if something happened, he still had time to come to his rescue.
Zhao Deyan, who was following Dubi, was also very confused, the army traveled back and forth, sometimes east and west, he didn't know what he was doing at all, and asked Dubi, but Dubi refused to say.
At this time, Zhao Deyan already felt that something was wrong, but he had no chance to send someone to inform Yu Wenshu again, because Du Bi had been taking him with him all the time, and he was sleeping in a tent.
This is not to suspect Zhao Deyan, but to rely on, when Shi Bi was alive, he trusted Zhao Deyan very much, and many major Turkic events, Shi Bi would ask Zhao Deyan what he meant, so that Chu Luo didn't like each other, and felt that he didn't have the right to speak as a Han people.
But Dubi is different, he thinks that Zhao Deyan is very talented, so he has snare it under his account.
He didn't know that Zhao Deyan had anything to do with Yuwenshu, after all, this was a top-level secret, and he didn't say it when he was alive, and he didn't have a chance to say it when he was dying.
Therefore, Zhao Deyan has been whitewashed with the death of Shibi.
Zhao Deyan also followed Shi Bi to fight the pass, but no one doubted why Shi Bi hung up, he didn't die.
Who let the chase start to finish, it was Yuwen Shu.
