Li Po had never seen a harmonious army, so he chose to turn a blind eye to the overt and covert struggles of the generals in the army most of the time.
The longer he led the army, the more he understood that the source of his power was not the reverence and obedience of the generals, but ultimately, the fact that he was able to win victory after victory for these people.
In fact, the roots of soldiers are also rooted in military merit. As long as this is accurately grasped, fair results can be produced.
Only after this process will the distance and distance be considered.
Therefore, no matter how many factions there are in the army, as long as no one crosses the bottom line, he will not deliberately ease the relationship between his generals, or reward and punish them according to his own likes and dislikes.
Li Po, who no longer talked with Bu Qun, smiled and said: "To be honest, it is not a good thing for us to gather together. It means that there is going to be another war. Are you all ready to go out with me?"
The sound was not loud, but it seemed to be condensed with endless blood and killing, as if there was a sound of gold and iron in the hall.
For a time, all the generals were refreshed and they puffed up their chests.
Yuchi Gong, who had become the leader of the generals, stepped forward slightly, hammered his breastplate and said: "It is really a blessing for us to be able to accompany the general on the battlefield. The general has been organizing the army for many days, so he is waiting for the general."
Ordered."
Luo Shixin's loud voice was not to be outdone, "It's better to fight if there is a war. It's really boring to fight those people in the south. This time when we go north, my brother can't favor one over the other. I must be the vanguard."
Li Po gently tapped the table and said hello.
"You all know who the enemies are in the north. Kruhu leads 20,000 troops and is stationed at Huangqihai. Ashina Biji leads the southern part of Ak in Dingxiang County. The only one who is not sure about it is Ashina Bo.
Yu, how many tribes did you lead to move westward?"
"We have been preparing for this battle for so long, so there is no need to waste too much time. Let's go north to Dingxiang and get rid of Ashina Biji first."
In fact, at this point, there is no need to discuss strategy. Princess Yicheng definitely hopes that they will attack the 20,000 Turkic elite cavalry led by Huangqi Haikouhu first.
But for Li Po, he would definitely not go to Huangqihai and fight with 20,000 Turks on the grassland. Even if he won, how could he go to Dali City to meet Princess Yicheng with heavy losses?
Li Po would not do this kind of thing of marrying someone else.
Therefore, the only option is to drive directly to the Turkic royal court and first help Princess Yicheng kill Ashina Allivo. In fact, as long as the brothers Ashina Dubi and Ashina Allivo are dead, the Turks will not be able to cause chaos even if they don't think so.
During this period, detective reports also came to Li Po one after another. Except for Ashina Boyu in the northeast who was too far away to find out, the movements of the other two enemies could be found out.
two.
Nowadays, the atmosphere on the grassland is very tense. Some small tribes are moving closer to the main part. Large tribes are also migrating northward in this season of abundant water and grass.
The central part of Yunzhong Grassland is already a scene of imminent mountain rain.
The inheritance of the Turkic Khanate is making the huge Turkic Khanate tremble in discomfort.
The rebellion of the Tiele tribe has gone out of control. The rebellious Tiele tribe has united with the Shegui Khan of the Western Turks to the west and is eroding the western territory of the Turkic Khanate.
In the autumn of this year, the Khitan and Mohe tribes in the northeast also lost their suppression, and were preparing to plunder the northeastern Sui Dynasty and the northwest areas of the Goguryeo people.
The anti-kings of the Sui Dynasty, who temporarily lost the support of the Turks, also experienced various discomforts.
Mainly the ones in the northwest.
The first was the Yulin thief Guo Zihe. Under constant pressure from Liang Shidu, the Turks showed no sign of fulfilling their promise, so he sent his envoy to defect to the Tang Dynasty and was immediately named the general manager of Lingzhou.
Li Gui, who occupied Xiliang, also began to flirt with Li Yuan and called each other brothers.
After several contacts, Li Yuan named Li Gui the King of Liang and the general manager of Liangzhou.
For a time, Li Tang used diplomatic methods to make Xue Ju and Liangshi suffer from enemies from both sides.
On the battlefield in Henan, the situation also changed dramatically.
After an alliance and betrayal, the two enemies Li Mi and Wang Shichong became mortal enemies.
Li Mi, who was not attacked from the direction of Tongguan, fought with Wang Shichong. The Wagang army was indeed weakening, but it still defeated Wang Shichong and besieged Luoyang again.
This time, Li Mi gathered three armies and besieged the eastern capital, intending to cut off Wang Shichong's head.
In Lianghuai, Xiao Mian began to plan to attack Shu. Without Li Jing, the Tang army was defeated by Xiao Mian's naval forces. It barely managed to hold on to the key points of Kuizhou and was constantly seeking help from Li Yuan.
In Hebei, Dou Jiande's forces were strong and he could attack Hejian County, but he was repeatedly frustrated by the defenders led by Wang Cong, the governor of Hejian County.
At this time, two prodigal sons of the Yuwen family led troops to occupy Wei County, as if they were looking for a foothold in Hebei and Shandong.
This was a very fat street rat. The civil and military ministers who followed Emperor Yang Guang to Jiangdu were all taken to Hebei by these two brothers.
To Dou Jiande, this was both a threat and an alluring aroma.
The Yuwen brothers, who had been defeated one after another, were actually no different from rogue bandits. At this time, they actually sent envoys to Dongdu and even Chang'an to ask for official positions and a formal canonization.
These two headless brothers are destined not to get what they want.
If there is anyone who is the public enemy of everyone during the war in the late Sui Dynasty, it must be these two brothers. Anyone who accepts their surrender would be a fool.
Unable to conquer Hejian, Dou Jiande was very upset. The problem of food and grass continued to trouble this Shandong hero who stood out from the corpses on the ground.
In fact, the heroes of Shandong, Hebei, and Henan, which were reduced to a complete mess, have gradually begun to fall prey to others.
Especially for Dou Jiande, the grain and grass population of Zhuojun was wiped out by Daizhou Li Po, causing Dou Jiande's troops to lose their goal. The desire to attack Youzhou northward continued to weaken.
In the fourteenth year of Daye, Dou Jiande had to turn his attention to Henan. He wanted the grain and grass from Dongdu.
The general trend of the world, by this time, has actually begun to change beyond recognition, but some familiar details are still vaguely revealed according to inertia.
At this moment, even a later historical researcher would probably be dumbfounded and not know where to go.
Li Mi was supposed to be defeated, but Wang Shichong, who was fighting, ran away with his head in his arms.
Xiao Mian, who should be in danger, is still active and active. Not only is he causing trouble for Li Tang, but he is also planning to attack the statue in Shu.
Du Fuwei also managed his own territory in the eastern part of the Huaihe River like no one else, and showed no sign of bowing to Li Tang.
Liu Wuzhou, the rebel king of Jin, disappeared without a trace.
Dou Jiande also lost his mind to manage Shandong and Hebei. If Yu Wenhuaji hadn't occupied Wei County, he might have led his army into the battlefield in Henan.
The most important thing is that the Turks, who were supposed to be getting stronger and stronger, are now in a rather strange state.
Instead of thinking about taking a few bites on Da Sui's body, he decided to have an internal fight behind closed doors.
What's even more frightening is that there are foreign enemies waiting around.
History is rapidly deviating from its original trajectory and is already affecting every prince in the world.
As the instigator, Li Po was still trying hard to flap his wings, which were getting stronger and stronger. This time, he planned to overturn the powerful Turks to the ground.
At the beginning of July in the fourteenth year of Daye, Li Po, the commander-in-chief of Daizhou's march, led more than 25,000 cavalrymen and marched north to Yunzhong.
Iron hooves kicked up smoke and dust all over the sky, flags fluttered, swords and guns reflected the sun, and the army flooded across the fields of Mayi like a flood that burst its embankments and swarmed northward.
…………………………
At the same time, Chang'an finally received news of the fall of Jinyang.
Li Yuan, who was always known for his tolerance and benevolence, tore up the newspaper sent by Li Yuanji, kicked over the heavy dragon case, and the roar echoed in the Tai Chi Hall.
Under his strict orders, the confession documents of Dou Dan and others soon appeared in his hands.
Then he took out the secret report sent to the capital by the right-guard general Yu Wenxin and read it from beginning to end.
How could the pretentious words of repentance in the newspaper sent by Li Yuanji be hidden from Li Yuan's eyes?
A relatively clear context emerged.
First, Li Yuanji acted recklessly in Jinyang City, which caused the Jinyang Wang family to alienate. Later, he sent an envoy to Daizhou. He did not know what he said to Li Po, the general manager of Daizhou's march, and asked Li Po to raise troops to seize Fenyang Palace.
Then, he did not listen to Yu Wenxin's dissuasion and fell into the trap of luring the enemy. He took the initiative to launch troops in Yanmen and was defeated in a battle.
What happened after that almost made Li Yuan angry, and he wished he could stuff this son back into his mother's womb.
Li Yuanji actually returned to Jinyang and fled with the Li family. Therefore, Yuwen Xin dedicated the city and ran it for several years. The imperial land where Li family started was so easily abandoned by his son.
If Li Yuanji were in front of Li Yuan at this time, he might really be killed by a furious Li Yuan.
But Li Yuanji was very smart in this regard. He did not rush back to Chang'an. Instead, he ran to Tongguan's elder brother Li Jiancheng and begged Li Jiancheng to put in a good word for him.
Li Jiancheng was shocked after hearing his brother's story.
Jinyang was lost and Hedong was in danger. How did the Li family get to Chang'an back then? Li Jiancheng didn't want to listen to what his younger brother said. If this younger brother hadn't always been on good terms with him, he would have ordered someone to tie him up and send him to his father in Chang'an. The matter was settled in front of the emperor.
What's the use of keeping such a prodigal?
Li Jiancheng immediately ordered his confidants to guard the key points of Tongguan, and hurried back to Chang'an City with his younger brother.
At this time, Li Yuan had already issued an edict to summon Qin King Li Shimin to return to Beijing to discuss matters, and ordered Liu Wenjing to lead the generals to confront Xue Ju on behalf of Li Shimin.
As a result, Li Shimin escaped the disaster of a serious illness. He only asked Liu Wenjing and others to stick to the key points and not go into battle without authorization, and he hurried back to Chang'an City.
