Chapter 439 Yi Feng is better to bully
Datou personally led the army of the western troops to attack the northwest direction, Hexi, Longyou, and Xitao, with the target of Guanzhong Chang'an.≤Dulan's attack direction is Daibei and Yunshuo, and the ultimate target is Taiyuan. Hebei region to the east will not be ignored for the time being. The other two units each draw an elite force to sweep the Tuli in the north of Mo.
Although he lost the status of the Great Khan, Du Lan, who abdicated as the Khan of the East, was in a good mood. The Khan of the East has always been the largest territory among the six small Khans of the Turkic Khans and also the highest status. Except for the current Datou who snatched power to the throne, the other Datou of all generations have basically succeeded to the throne after serving as the Khan of the East. The Khan of the East is the crown prince of the Turkic Khanate and is the crown prince. According to the tradition of Turkic brothers ending with brothers and the tradition of the Khan of the East, Du Lan feels that after Datou dies, he still has a lot of chance to become the Khan of the Great Khan. Anyway, Datou is still very old
, he couldn't live long. In addition, he had heard that Tuli was beaten by the troops sent by him and Datou, and fled everywhere. He didn't mention the pleasure in his heart. Unfortunately, he had not caught the princess of the Sui Dynasty. But it didn't matter, he could catch it sooner or later. Moreover, the Turks sent all troops to attack the Great Sui Dynasty. This was not the small fight he had attacked the border of the Sui Dynasty last year. This time, the seven tribes of the Turkic Khanate, in addition to Tuli, one big, five little, and six khan led the troops. Even the Tiel tribes of Mobei, which were originally affiliated with Tuli, had responded to the dispatch of troops. It is said that they had gathered 100,000 troops and went south soon.
Yang Jian, Yang Jian, you are not very awesome. You insisted on killing the princess of the Qianjin, but they were untrustworthy. Afterwards, they refused to marry the princess of the Sui Dynasty, but they married Tuli instead. Since you like to play tricks, you are satisfied now, you are happy. This time I really led the army south to take your life. At that time, you have to send the princess over. No, you have to have two, well, it is best to have three.
On the hillside near the road, Dulan Khan was watching his own army. In an instant, a feeling of revenge filled his mind. An extremely powerful force was in my hand. There was this sudden army of 200,000 people. I wanted to destroy Taiyuan, which is known as the most powerful city in the north. I wanted to step on the powerful Sui Dynasty, I wanted to steal all Hedong and Henan, and I wanted to let Yang Jian know that I was not so easy to bully.
As if he had seen his thoughts, Nili Khan laughed, "What a mighty army, Du Lan Khan can completely sweep across the Central Plains this time."
Nili Khan is also one of the six little khans of the Turkic Khan. He is the grandson of Mugan Khan, son of Yangsu Teqin, and nephew of Apo Khan Daluo. In the seventh year of Kaihuang, Apo Khan, who once defeated Shaboluo and won the position of the Great Khan of the Turkic Khan, was defeated by Datou. Mohe Khan, who inherited Shaboluo's position as the Khan, took the opportunity to send troops under the banner of the Sui Dynasty and defeated Abo alive. After Apo was sent to Daxing, Yang Jian exempted Abo from his death sentence and sent someone to send him
When he returned to the Turks, he originally intended to use his name to fight against the powerful Mohe Khan. As a result, as soon as Abo went back, he was killed by Datou. As soon as Abo died, his divisions of the Khanate elected his nephew to succeed him. He was the Nili Khan. After Nili succeeded to the throne, he expressed his surrender to Datou and was able to preserve the Khan throne and fief. Although Nili married a Han woman, Xiang, as his wife, he always hated the Sui Dynasty that did not protect Abo and often planned to attack Sui.
In the 13th year of Kaihuang, Nili and Du Lan's wife, Princess Jin, secretly plotted to attack the border of the Sui Dynasty. However, the princess had an affair with the envoy he sent. In the end, the matter was leaked. Suddenly, Li was instructed by the Sui Dynasty and eventually provoked Du Lan to kill the princess and his secret envoy. Because of that, Du Lan still held a grudge against Nili. If it weren't for this, Nili wouldn't have been firmly supporting Datou to fight Du Lan. But now, everyone is a little khan and they all follow Datou, so Nili also intends to ease the relationship between the two sides. After all, the person who had an affair with Du Lan's wife was only his subordinates, not him.
Du Lan was very happy to hear some of the useless words of praise.
Both of them are great-grandsons of the Khan of Tumen. They are cousins and have extremely high status among the royal family. However, in the past, everyone had no contact, and after that incident happened, they even made enemies. But now, since Nili is willing to resolve the old grudges, Du Lan is also willing to make a comeback again. After all, half of the 200,000 troops in front of him are Nili's troops.
A cavalry arrived hurriedly, and the silver wolf guard in Dulan was about to intercept him, but the man shouted, "I am a messenger, and I have important news to tell the Khan."
Seeing the man's hurried appearance, Nili shouted: "Let him come here."
With a wave of his hand, the guards let go of the interception, the cavalry jumped off their horses and hurriedly ran closer, "Khan, emergency military information."
When Du Lan saw this man's clothing, he recognized him as a Nili person. He could tell at a glance that he was a nine-subject Hu of the Western Regions. He just snorted coldly, "Tell me."
"The prince of the Southern Barbarians, Yang Yong, has arrived in Taiyuan, and the Prime Minister Gao Bing of the Southern Barbarians, was also the one who arrived in Taiyuan. After they arrived in Taiyuan, they immediately asked Du Yan, the general manager of the Southern Barbarian Shuozhou, to send three thousand light cavalry as the vanguard, and quickly reinforce Yunnei and Heng'an."
Nili Khan frowned slightly, but Du Lan asked in surprise, "Isn't the marshal of the Southern Barbarians the leader of the army Yang Guang and the prime minister Yang Su? Why did they change to the monarch of the Southern Barbarians and Gao Yang Bing?"
"Originally, the Emperor of Sui Dynasty asked King Yang Yong of Jin, right servant Yang Su and King Yang Lin of Zhao to command troops. However, there are latest changes. Now the Emperor of Sui Dynasty has allowed Prince Yang Yong to replace King Yang Guang of Jin as the marshal. Yang Su is still the marshal of the West Road, but the emperor sent Shi Wansui as the deputy commander of the West Road. In addition, Gao Yang was the chief secretary of Yang Yong, assisted him in commanding troops, and He Ruobi as the marshal of the middle road. The marshal of the East Road was still Yang Lin, and the royal family, Yang Xiong, was also sent as the deputy commander of the royal family." Nili Khan shook his head, "Shi Wansui, He Ruobi, Yang Xiong and others are all famous generals, while Gao Yang and Yang Su were prime ministers, but they were more powerful in commanding troops and fighting. This time, the Emperor of Sui Yang Jian took out all his capital. We cannot underestimate the enemy."
"How many soldiers and horses are there in Taiyuan?" Ni Li asked.
"According to preliminary information, the total strength of the three left, middle and right routes in the Nanman period is 500,000, of which the central army has 250,000, and there are also Tuyuhun, Tuli, Sanfan, etc., which have 500,000, totaling 9 armies and one million infantry and cavalry."
Ni Li looked at him and saw fear in his eyes. Gao Yang and He Ruobi and others were famous generals, and the central army had 250,000 Sui army, which even exceeded the 200,000 Turkic army that they had always been happy about.
"A million people are just known as one million. Not to mention whether there are 500,000 Sui troops, even if there are, many of them are just peasant soldiers who just threw down their hoes. In addition, the so-called 500,000 foreign soldiers of various tribes are very rich. Not to mention anything else, just Tuli and his 100,000 soldiers are already done. Therefore, I don't think there is anything to worry about. The millions of Sui people are all stupid things, but our 200,000 soldiers are real, not to mention that there are 200,000 troops there."
Du Lan was in a state of uneasiness, and the arrogance he had just now disappeared.
He had heard of the names of Gao Jin and He Ruobi, and knew that they were all the most famous marshals and generals of the Sui Dynasty. This time, the Sui Dynasty sent the prince to come, which fully demonstrated that the other party attached great importance to the battlefield in the middle and must be very confident. Otherwise, would they dare to send the prince? Besides, even if the troops of both sides are equal, once they cross the Great Wall, there are dangerous passes and tall city fortresses everywhere in the south. The cavalry will not attack the city and fight at all. How can they fight? Last year, he attacked the border of the Sui Dynasty, but he did not make any profit at all. No matter how elite cavalry is, facing the high city wall, the dangerous passes are all helpless.
I thought that this attack, Datou attacked the northwest of the Sui Dynasty, which was close to the capital of the Sui Dynasty, so the Sui Dynasty would naturally defend the west with all its strength. The guards in the Hedong area they attacked must have been much weakened. Who knew that there were still 250,000 Sui troops, how could they fight this battle?
Du Lan leaned against Nili and whispered, "How many soldiers and horses does the Eastern Army have? It is led by King Zhao Yang Lin."
Ni Li replied, "There are 100,000 soldiers and horses on the east road, and Yang Lin is no longer the King of Zhao, but the crown prince of the Sui Kingdom. This Yang Lin is not simple. A year ago, he was just a Green Forest Horse Thief named Yi Feng, who was blocked a year ago, but now he is the crown prince."
I heard that there were only 100,000 soldiers and horses in the east. When the commander's marshal was just a horse thief a year ago, his face looked much better immediately. Last year's thief and this year's throne had only 100,000 soldiers in his hands. Well, maybe they should change the target of the attack. "Hey, brother, how about you say we will change the direction of the attack?"
Ni Li glanced at him and immediately understood the guy's little thoughts. However, after thinking about it, he felt that it was a good suggestion. Avoiding the real and making the false is the essence of the war. No one needs to do it. If the weak don't fight, he insisted on fighting hard in front of the famous generals under the strong wall. He smiled and nodded, "Of course, but no matter how you fight, you have to take down Yunnei and Heng'an first, and then we can attack the eastern part of the Sanggan River valley. Well, I will send another urgent order to the Tielite tribes in Mobei, so that they can immediately lead their 100,000 troops south. This time we will kill the Eastern Army of the Sui Dynasty first and capture the crown prince."
