Chapter 39: Intelligence on Agents Behind Enemy Lines

"Your Majesty Wanwang knows that the Turkic invasion of Lintao has been more than two months, and the minister knows the details in the rear, during which the Turkic cavalry has been unable to break through the main force of our army, and the supply of the Turkic troops has become a big problem with the delay of time, and the Shabalu Khan has the intention of continuing to invade the south, but his uncle Datou Khan is responsible for the material and military supplies, and the Datou Khan and the Shabalu Khan have a dislike, and deliberately delay, so as to have no power to fight for a long time."

"There was a fight between his nephew Rangan and his uncle Datou Khan in the rear, and the two sides broke up unhappily, and Shabalu Khan felt that if he could not return to the camp before winter in the approaching autumn, the wind, snow and cold would invade his troops, and the other khans were eyeing him, so Shabalu Khan made the following strategy."

"One, the army is ready to retreat to the steppe at any time."

"Second, divide the troops to bypass the army of the Sui Dynasty, divide into six surprise attacks and plunder, advance with light cavalry, fast forward and fast back, and grab as much as you want."

"Three, after the plunder, the six troops and horses did not converge, and began to retreat directly from the nearest place, and retreated to the grassland as quickly as possible before the mobilization of the Great Sui army."

"Fourth, when the road encounters a Great Sui man, he kills him, and when he encounters a Great Sui woman, he will leave his life to give birth to the grassland bloodline."

"This is the plan of the Turks for this war, and I hope that Your Majesty will deal with it as soon as possible to prevent the people of the Great Sui from suffering from disasters."

This is the information sent back by Changsun Sheng from behind enemy lines, and it is also the biggest honor guard of Yang Jian's tactical deployment this time, Changsun Sheng should have had the information after the Turks discussed and decided on the plan of action, so when Yang Jian got the information, it happened to be the time when the Turks attacked our army's city in six ways.

With such intelligence, Yang Jian is tantamount to opening the perspective of God to fight, knowing the purpose and deployment of the enemy's army, it is much easier to deal with it.

First of all, the enemy army is divided into six divisions, not because their strength has increased, but for the purpose of plundering and taking risks, and they do not have the ability to fight a tough battle with us, and secondly, the enemy army is crazy before retreating, and the enemy army is about to slip away, so take this opportunity not only to win the battle but also to earn something else back.

Yang Jian and Yang Guang discussed and decided on a strategy.

Since you're here, don't go.

Yu Wenhua and went to join the main force of our army, and brought the intelligence map over, Yang Hong was still puzzled at the first time when he received Yu Wenhua, how could we have such a detailed Turkic intelligence map, but Yu Wenhua and can quickly find this place according to the route is beyond doubt.

Yang Hong no longer hesitated when he saw Yang Jian's handwritten letter, and ordered the crown prince Yang Yong to lead the army to capture Lintao City, and he himself led his troops to intercept the Turkic attack on the six-way soldiers and horses of the Great Sui.

Two days later, before dawn, Yang Guang entered the palace again, and Yang Jian asked when he met: "Amo, you can close the net, if the food in the city is not calm, I am afraid it will cause panic." ”

"Well, father, I came here early in the morning to tell you that this should be the best time to do it."

"Okay, you go ahead, I've already prepared the decree."

"Yes, Father, this will be the first decree to be printed in the newspaper, and today is a day to remember."

Yang Guang immediately went to the newspaper workshop first, held the holy decree in his hand, and began to typeset.

"Under the door, the Turkic wilderness dares to offend our dynasty, the army has been in the four field Turks, not the day will be set to swing the stratocracy, Mingde has meritorious, when the price of food in Chang'an City is overflowing, the people can not eat, I am deeply saddened, the people are my people, the people have no food is my responsibility, special order to open the warehouse from today to revitalize the grain, with Chang'an military grain, Daxing the city granary, relief Quartet, to avoid the suffering of hunger."

This is the whole content of the holy decree, because to let all the people see it, Yang Guang specially told the emperor that it must be simple and easy to understand, don't be awkward, don't hide the deep meaning, just say it directly as if it were spoken, so that the person who reads the newspaper does not need to read and understand it to the people.

The first edition of the holy decree was full, and then there was the news about the war between our army and the Turks, and the news came in the past two days, although the Turks attacked the city of our army, but because of the lack of troops, they could not enter the city at all, and only the villages along the way suffered.

The Turkic cavalry was too fast, and when Yang Jian received the news from Changsun Sheng, they had already set off, and when the tactics were arranged, the Turkic cavalry had already started the battle, and it was impossible to completely avoid casualties.

But it is believed that the news can be uplifting.

When the sky was slightly bright, Yang Guang said to the two sisters: "I'll make up for sleep first, and remember to call me if there is a situation." ”

The overnight rush made him tired, so Yun Rui said, "Your Highness, you can rest, I will press your head." ”

"Tap, my head is less strained."

Yang Guang did not refuse, lying on the bed, Yun Rui knelt in front of him and stretched out his hand to press him gently, Qianqian's hands were fine, because he was good at musical instruments, his long-term training strength was enough.

Under the massage of the two sisters, Yang Guang fell asleep deeply, and Wang Yi stayed aside, even if this was the case, he would not leave without the order of the prince.

When Yang Guang woke up, it was already three poles in the morning, and the Yun family sisters fell asleep next to her, he didn't sleep all night, and the Yun family sisters didn't sleep, they were all tired.

Yang Guang got up and alarmed the two girls, and immediately stood up and went to the bedside to apologize: "Your Highness, I'm sorry......"

Yang Guang didn't want to listen, but asked Wang Yi: "Wang Yi, what time is it?" ”

"It's noon, Your Highness."

"What happens after the morning newspaper goes out?"

Wang Yi smiled: "The price of grain in the city plummeted immediately, and the Duke of Bao Guo opened all the remaining military grain to sell at a low price, and Li Yuan was ordered to open a warehouse in the national granary built by Daxing City, and the price of grain fell by more than six times for a while, although it did not reach the level where the war had not started before, but it was not much worse, the whole city celebrated, and no one grabbed grain." ”

"Well, did anyone come to me during this time?"

"The Duke of Bao sent someone to look for His Highness, but His Highness was resting, so I asked them to wait outside."

The two sisters brought water, helped Yang Guang wash, and tidied up his clothes, and then Yang Guang walked to the front hall of the newspaper workshop.

The person who came to the Baoguo Mansion was the most trusted person in Yuwenshu, and when he saw Yang Guang hurriedly saluting, Yang Guang asked when he met: "How is the situation on the side of Baoguo Gong?" ”

"Back to His Royal Highness, the Duke of the Kingdom specially ordered me to come to report to His Highness, the newspaper was published early this morning, and the city of Daxing highlighted the grain full of granaries, the price of grain in the city dropped sharply, the grain merchants came to the door to praise the Guogong, hoping that the Duke of the Kingdom would buy back the grain, among which the largest grain merchant Li Dong came with the Hu people, and the Duke said that he must inform His Highness about this situation."

"Hu Ren?" Yang Guang smiled slightly: "I didn't expect there to be an unexpected gain." ”

"You go back and tell Guogong, respond with a good voice, don't buy back a penny, don't be afraid that they will gather and make trouble."

"Yes."

"Also, tell Guogong, I'm afraid that he can't hide the resale of military rations this time, I have to give an explanation, my majesty and I will keep this matter in mind, you can just let him feel at ease, even a little punishment is also money, I won't let him have a loss."

The doorman of the Guogong Mansion immediately said: "Your Highness, rest assured, the Guogong said that he did not move a cent of the income from the resale of military rations, and according to the market price at that time, he definitely made a lot of money for the imperial court, and His Majesty will hand over the amount after checking it." ”

"The righteousness of the country, I Yang Guang remember it in my heart."

The people from the Baoguo Mansion left, and Wang Yi came to Yang Guang's side and said, "Your Highness, the Baoguo Gong has really done better than expected this time. ”

"It is worthy of him, the money that should be earned is earned, and the money that should not be earned is not earned, so that he can make a lot of money, this time the matter has become the current situation, his reselling of military rations is bound to happen, the price of grain in the inventory of the grain merchants who are stockpiled with grain is less than one-sixth, if there is no loan, it is fine, and if the borrower loses, he has to owe a lot of money to go out."

A large number of grain merchants wanted to find Yuwenshu to buy back military rations, Yuwenshu was naturally not stupid, and the grain merchants had no choice but to break the net and announce Yuwenshu's resale of military rations.

The emperor was also very cooperative with the "opinions of the grain merchants", and at noon that day issued a decree to relieve Yuwenshu of his official position in charge of military rations, and ordered Yuwenshu to make up all the shortfall of food and salary on the seventh day, without talking about fines.

Yuwen said that he calculated carefully, the emperor was rewarded with a lot of money, the military rations that were resold before were sold at a high price, and now the military rations are made up at a low price.

Although he has a reputation for reselling military rations, it is estimated that he will have to stay at home for a while, but it is very safe.

At this time, the most anxious were naturally the businessmen Hu and Li Dong, who lost almost all their belongings in the morning, just a few news things, and all the grain they had "worked hard" for a long time became the price of cabbage.

The Hu people immediately surrounded Li Dong's mansion first, and Alili led people to rush into it and ask Li Dong for money.

There are only a few people in the Li Dong family, and the Hu people rushed over where could they stop them.

Alili led people to arrest Li Dong and tied him up, threw him in the yard and threatened: "Li Dong, return our money." ”

"Aliri shopkeeper, where do I have money now, besides, we are a partnership in business, and I didn't have a lot of money when I made money, you yourself later saw that the situation was good and invested money in, and now I have to bear the loss alone, which is not moral."

Alili pulled Li Dong's concubine and said, "Don't talk nonsense, don't give me money, I'll let my men rape your wife now." ”

Li Dong looked confused: "You are free, you are free." ”

It's just a concubine, how could Li Dong care.

Aliri hated it so much, but he really didn't dare to do anything to Li Dong now, he was asking for money, and now it was a big trouble if he couldn't get the money back, even if he killed Li Dong to vent his anger?

Aliri summoned two strong men and said viciously: "Since you don't care about your own wife, then what about yourself, someone came to rape him for me." ”

On this day, Li Dong was full of men and screamed again and again.

When Alili tortured Li Dong to ask for money, there was the sound of horses' hooves trampling on the street, and the Jingzhao Mansion came with the elite soldiers of the city defense.

Yu Qing was present in person, and when he saw that the scene was not good, he scolded secretly: "What a fucking pervert." ”

"Today, the government government received a report that someone in the city was besieging the government to make trouble, and they all took it down and took them to prison pending trial."
