"What is the will of the Emperor?"

"After you led the troops to the battle, Your Majesty discussed with many civil and military forces in the palace for many days and made a plan."

"What's the plan?"

"The Great Sui's plan for a comprehensive counterattack against the Turks."

“？！！”

Yang Guang's face was full of shock, his father was preparing to attack and defend Yibian, and changed from defending the Turkic attack to attacking the Turks, and the Northern Expedition of the Great Sui began.

"Why was my father's decision so hasty this time?"

"Not in a hurry, Your Majesty analyzed the situation and suddenly exclaimed that now may be a good opportunity to seriously injure the Turks."

"Why?"

"First, the Turks are now in famine, second, the Turks are now in internal discord, third, the Turks took advantage of the wind and snow to risk attacking our dynasty, fourth, Chen Shubao has not yet recovered, and the Chen Dynasty has no intention of attacking our dynasty, comprehensive four points, especially the situation of discord within the Turks, Your Majesty feels that now is a good opportunity to break the Turks, and it may be difficult to find it if you miss it, so the edict ordered the ministers to designate a counterattack battle."

Before the two chatted in detail, they had already entered the secret room, and the matter was confidential and could not be known.

"How will the plan designated by my father be carried out?"

"Divide the army into eight routes, defeat the Turks, the goal is the first, eliminate the species, destroy the country, the goal is the second, make it submit, and the goal is third, divide its interior."

Li Che continued: "Your Majesty has appointed eight divisions of troops, one of which is Yin Shou, the governor of Youzhou, to lead the cavalry out of Lulong and annihilate Gao Baoning, Gao Baoning's previous defeat has been greatly damaged, this attack is intended to annihilate and deter the Turkic forces near it, as well as Goguryeo, Pingding and Long (now Chaoyang, Liaoning) region. ”

"Second, Yang Hong, the king of Hejian, led Dou Lu Qin and others to lead tens of thousands of Sui troops out of Lingzhou (southwest of present-day Lingwu, Ningxia), annihilating all the small Turkic forces, and completely controlling the Turkic forces in the direction north of the Yellow River, so that they could not be crossed."

"The third and fourth, the right Wuwei general Dou Rongding led 9 commanders, 30,000 infantry cavalry in Lintao, after the New Year, the whole army waited for the opportunity to go out of Liangzhou (now Wuwei, Gansu) in two ways, attack the Turkic Apo Khan, annihilate or surrender Apo Khan, Apo Khan does not accept Apo Khan can attack first, and then surrender."

"Fifth, send Yuanhui out of Yiwu (now Hami County, Xinjiang) to make friends with the Datou Khan in the west and the Chuluohou (the brother of the Shabalu Khan) in the east."

"Sixth, Wei Wang Yang Shuang fought with the main army of the current Turkic Shao Boliu Khan in Shuozhou, weakened its main force as much as possible, caused internal contradictions, poured Taiyuan and surrounding troops to aid Shuozhou, and could drag on the war for a long time, if it can win, it will take advantage of the victory to pursue, annihilate the Sha Bolu Khan, and will never be allowed to retreat."

"Eight of the seventh, Gao Gong and Yu Qing each ordered the elite soldiers who guarded Daxing all the way to hoard on Ningzhou Road and Yuanzhou Road, and once the war was scorched, they quickly rushed out of the pass to exterminate the Turks."

"Your Majesty has a saying, there are no two days in the sky, and there are no two lords in the earth, so let the world be one!"

Yang Guang was stunned after hearing this, what kind of layout is this, from east to west, this is an overall operation that affects the entire northern defense line, Yang Jian actually formulated such a large-scale operation after concluding that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in the imperial city, Yang Guang felt incredible when he thought about it.

Especially in the end, let Gao Gong and Yu Qing each order to guard the elite soldiers of Daxing all the way, which will inevitably lead to the emptiness of the imperial city, an extremely risky approach, and it can even be said that in order to exterminate the Turks, Yang Jian directly exposed himself and Daxing City, during this period, if there is any change in the country, even if the location of the garrison is close to Daxing, but it is also very difficult to help.

And Yang Jian let the Gao Gong he relied on the most out.

This move really surprised Yang Guangdu, and Yang Jian was too radical.

"Li Che, is this really my father's will?"

"It's true, since Your Majesty put forward this idea, the ministers and Your Majesty have discussed it in front of the palace for more than ten days, but I didn't expect that the more we discussed, the more firm Your Majesty's idea became, and in the end, even Gao Xi was completely on His Majesty's side."

The two were speechless, Yang Guang thought silently for a moment, and could understand some of Yang Jian's thoughts a little, Yang Jian wanted to take this opportunity to take down the Turks in one fell swoop, and clear the biggest worries for the future pacification of the Central Plains.

And now that Li Che has appeared here, it is already in vain for Yang Guang to disagree, and now he can only do what the emperor wants.

In the Eighth Road Front, Lintao 1st Road and Shuozhou 1st Road are the biggest main forces, although Yinshou in Youzhou City is also facing a big war, but Gao Baoning was defeated before and the Turks are not there now, so there is no way to help, so it should not be a big problem.

Whether Lintao makes a move all the way depends on the outcome of Shuozhou, so all in all, the battle of Shuozhou can be delayed, but it must not be defeated.

"What is the situation in Li Che Taiyuan?"

"Taiyuan is reorganizing the army, and it will take some time for the large army to come, Weichen will report the news first, and the grain and grass in the rear are properly prepared."

"According to my father's plan, then this battle will not be simple, my firearms battalion still needs to be supplied, and I have to send a message back to Li Yuan first."

"Your Highness, rest assured, Your Majesty specially explained that Li Yuan stepped up the manufacture of equipment, and there will be firearms and equipment in the next batch of materials, but the time is too short, and there are still not many of them."

Yang Guang was a little relieved: "It's good to send it over." ”

"Li Che, when the wind and sand stop, let's go to Shuozhou City first and inform Uncle Wei Wang of the news."

Knowing Yang Jian's huge plan, Yang Guang suddenly found himself extremely excited, and when there was no one, the smile on the corner of his mouth finally couldn't be hidden.

"This is Yang Jian, if you don't have this ambition, how can you become the hero of the unified China! First behead the alien race, and then determine the Central Plains, this vast world of merit should be a good witness. ”

"People are in Daxing City, but they have a multi-faceted layout of border passes, and they really have the ability to strategize, and now the opportunity, such an opportunity may only be seized by him with such a majestic talent, can he be replaced by Chen Shubao? Can he be any ruler of the Northern and Southern Dynasties for hundreds of years? is the history of Fang Zhi, and there are very few people like him. ”

In the past, when I stayed by Yang Jian's side, I thought that Yang Jian was a person who thought deeply about the city government and liked to pit his son, but it should be seen from the previous radical policy towards Nan Chen that in fact, Yang Jian was also a crazy gambler in addition to being extremely calm.

Not the kind of gambler who blindly surrenders his fate to others, but a person who analyzes all the situations, finds his most advantageous option from them, and is willing to give it a go after accurate analysis.

Calm and crazy, passionate and profound, gambler and banker, two completely different personalities get along well in him.

Yang Guang tapped lightly on the tabletop, the sound of knocking echoed in the small room, and he was thinking about what he should do next.

……

……

The day is clear, and the weather after the wind and sand becomes more and more empty, and the blue sky is cloudless, which makes people feel refreshed and happy.

Yang Guang rode a fast horse under the Yanmen Gate and took Li Che to Shuozhou City, at this time in Shuozhou, the yellow sand fell all over the window sill and door, and Yang Guang found where Yang Shuang was.

And informed Yang Shuang of the news, Yang Shuang was not too surprised when he heard this, and instead smiled: "Since Your Majesty has made a will, then from today onwards, the situation of our army on all fronts against the Turks has changed, and the border passes have been bitter for the Turks for a long time." ”

"Uncle Wei Wang, now that our army's backup has not arrived, we may still have to defend first during this time."

"Don't worry, I have fought with the Turks several times in the past few days, and I have already known the current strength of the Turks, and it is absolutely impossible for them to break through our army's defense with these forces, Your Majesty's will is to delay first, as long as they are undefeated, and wait until the spring of the new year, our army will also attack on the front line of Lintao, and the Turks will not return."

Yang Shuang is very confident in the current battle situation.

Yang Guang walked around the city of Shuozhou at this time, the city covered with a layer of loess by wind and sand, there were wounded soldiers everywhere, there were missing arms, broken legs, injured eyes, and were cut by knives everywhere, as long as the scimitar of the Turks was cut is a terrifying big mouth, there is no good surgical technology in this era, and the hands of the army's eldest lady are simply not enough.

Many soldiers died not on the battlefield, but after the war, their injuries worsened, they became infected, and so on.

Yang Guang felt very distressed, and said to Wang Yi beside him: "Wang Yi sent a letter to Sun Simiao and Sun Zhenren, even if it is me, I implore him to study the emergency treatment plan for the soldiers injured by the sharp blade on the front line, so as to reduce the casualties of our army." ”

"Yes, Your Highness."

Just when Yang Guang was inspecting the wounded soldiers, the war drums sounded, and the Turks really did not leave any space, and they were preparing to launch an attack on Shuozhou just after the wind and sand, and it was already evening.

As the sound of the fight sounded, Yang Guang felt the scene of the border pass and the alien race at close range for the first time, the two sides instinctively hated each other, fiercely slashed together, there was no other emotion, only the hatred of death and death, and this hatred will continue to be contagious.

Yang Guang stood on the streets of Shuozhou City, looking at the war-torn city wall, and felt that war could never be avoided.

For the sake of food, for women, for wealth, for power, the ultimate solution between people is still fighting, the ultimate solution between ethnic groups is fighting, and the ultimate solution between nations is war.

When contradictions are irreconcilable, there is only war.

Looking back at Yanmen Pass, after the pass is the land of the Central Plains, only by resisting foreign enemies can we protect our families.

Defending the country has never been a slogan, but a belief that is deeply rooted in the hearts of the nation.

The highest level of war is to surrender the army without fighting, the stretching of the tall Great Wall is to make the foreigners have no confidence to attack, reduce the number of their attacks, the main general in front of the battle is to weaken the morale of the enemy, and the cavalry general is to scare back the enemy's defense when attacking.

In addition to these, Yang Guang felt that the only way to truly surrender without a fight was to strengthen himself.

It's so strong that others don't dare to fight against you.

What Yang Jian wants to do coincides with what Yang Guang wants to do.
