As Yang Guang made a decision.
Yu Wenhuaji and others quickly wrote the imperial edict.
Not for a while.
The edict was written.
Yang Guang then sent an envoy, traveling day and night, to deliver the edict to Han Qinhu's military tent outside Nanyang City.
soon.
Ten days later.
Han Qinhu returned to Daxing City after a long journey.
After entering the city.
He went straight into the palace to see Yang Guang without rest.
"I, Han Qinhu, pay my respects to Your Majesty!"
It's like pushing a mountain of gold to topple a jade pillar.
Han Qinhu knelt down on one knee and saluted Yang Guang.
"Flat body!"
Yang Guang waved his hand.
Subsequently.
He turned aside, looked at the huge map hanging on the wall, and asked, "Did you read the military report from the northwest on the way back?"
Han Qinhu nodded and said, "Report to Your Majesty, I have already read it."
Yang Guangdao: "In that case, please tell me, is there any strategy to retreat from the enemy?"
Han Qinhu thought for a while, and then said: "I have never marched westward, so I don't know whether the enemy is true or not. However, when I watched the battle report, I found that the leader of the Tuyuhun thieves, called Yaoluoge Bodhisattva, is not a good person."
"How can I see it?"
Yang Guang nodded slightly.
He was quite satisfied with Han Qinhu's attitude.
This Han Qinhu is worthy of being a veteran on the battlefield. In comparison, Master Yinshi, who has been talking so boldly before going to Dunhuang, is much inferior.
I heard Yang Guang ask this.
Han Qinhu paused, and then slowly said: "As far as I know, Yaoluoge Bodhisattva was a general of the Xiliang Kingdom. This person has been dormant for many years, but once he suddenly mutated, his hidden character is indeed admirable. ...Moreover, after separatist Tuyuhun, this person was able to recruit troops immediately to counterattack the old master and win. He is a great hero of the generation!"
"What you said is true, please continue."
Yang Guang sat firmly on the dragon chair, nodded slightly, and spoke slowly.
"I obey the decree!"
Han Qinhu saluted with his hands clasped in fists.
Then.
He continued: "When Yaoluoge Bodhisattva defeated his old master and the Tibetan and Shatuo allied forces, he used tactics to lure the enemy deep... And the tactics he used to defeat our Sui army many times were mostly to lure the enemy. An in-depth plan... Therefore, this person is also a rare talent for military use."
"That's right! It's my fault to use Yin Shishi, Feng Xiaoci, and Fan Zi to cover the three of them!"
When Yang Guang heard Han Qinhu's analysis, he unexpectedly admitted his mistake.
"I don't mean that, but I think we may have something wrong with Tuyuhun's strategy."
Han Qinhu glanced at Yang Guang in surprise, then bowed and said.
"What's wrong?"
Yang Guang asked.
"Tuyuhun was originally an independent country, but was later destroyed at the hands of Tubo. Although it has been restored by Yaoluoge Bodhisattva, its former royal family, the Murong clan, has not received much benefit. This is the number one hidden danger of Tuyuhun!"
Han Qinhu looked at the huge map hanging above the main hall, pointed to an area in the west border, and talked to Yang Guang.
"Yeah...that makes sense!"
Yang Guang listened to Han Qinhu's words and looked at the map. He couldn't help but nodded slightly, stroked his beard and said.
Han Qinhu continued: "As for the second hidden danger in Tuyuhun, it is here!"
As he spoke, he pointed at the map again.
This time.
What he was pointing at was the Xiliang Kingdom, Yaoluoge Bodhisattva's old master.
"The Xiliang Kingdom is a grand alliance formed by the unification of thirty-six countries in the Western Regions during the Han Dynasty...Although its leader is an elder, his power is decentralized and he does not have the power to make decisions without hesitation like other countries."
Han Qinhu spoke in a soothing tone and introduced the Xiliang Kingdom to Yang Guang.
"I also know about this... It is said that there is a big food country further west of the Xiliang Kingdom, and its national power is comparable to my Sui Dynasty... As for why the Xiliang Kingdom was founded, it was because of the pressure of the big food country. "
Yang Guang nodded slightly and said.
"Your Majesty is knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and I admire you very much... Yes, this big food country is the overlord of the west, and has invaded Xiliang Kingdom many times... Xiliang Kingdom has an unstable foundation, and now, after being defeated by Yaoluo Ge Bodhisattva , the prestige of the country's leader has plummeted, so the Xiliang Kingdom regards Tuyuhun as its mortal enemy - this is Tuyuhun's second huge hidden danger."
Han Qinhu clasped his fists with both hands and continued.
"Internal and external troubles... Without your analysis, I really wouldn't know anything about it!"
Yang Guang nodded slightly, and his originally anxious expression gradually relaxed.
Han Qinhu said: "Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty... However, in addition to these two hidden dangers, I believe that Tuyuhun has another flaw that can be called a flaw. If our army wants to defeat Tuyuhun, we must rely on these flaws."
"Oh? What's the flaw?"
Upon hearing what Han Qinhu said.
Yang Guang perked up and asked immediately.
"The flaw in Tuyuhun is the three kingdoms of Turks, Shatuo and Tubo!"
Han Qinhu walked to the front of the map, raised his left hand and pointed at three places on the map.
As shown in the picture——
Nashatuo Kingdom is located in the northwest of Tuyuhun.
The Turkic Kingdom is located northeast of Tuyuhun.
The Tubo Kingdom is located southeast of Tuyuhun.
The three kingdoms were in a tense situation, locking Tuyuhun firmly.
but.
Because Yaoluoge Bodhisattva is famous.
Therefore, the three countries did not dare to act rashly.
"Hahahaha! Not bad, not bad! If we try to drive away the tiger and devour the wolf, Tuyuhun will be in danger!"
As soon as I saw the situation on the map.
Yang Guang instantly understood where the flaw in Tuyuhun mentioned by Han Qinhu was.
How could the Sui Dynasty not use such a natural ally?
"Your Majesty is a genius. Yes, the flaw in Tuyuhun that I mentioned was precisely the strategy of using Shatuo, Turks, and Tubo to drive away tigers and devour wolves!"
Han Qinhu smiled slightly and said.
Subsequently.
He further added: "Previously, Xiliang, Tubo, and Shatuo were all defeated at the hands of Yaoluoge Bodhisattva. These three countries must have resentment towards Tuyuhun. However, considering the prestige of Yaoluoge Bodhisattva, the three kingdoms naturally I don’t dare to act rashly... However, if we, the Sui Dynasty, send envoys to form an alliance with the three families and agree to attack Tuyuhun together, so that Tuyuhun’s soldiers and horses are scattered, and they cannot see each other, then we can destroy Yaoluoge Bodhisattva in this way, wouldn’t it be easy to capture him?”
"Hmm... what you said is very good! That's fine. I will leave it to you to handle this northwest war! However, do you have any recommendations for candidates to be envoys to Shatuo, Tubo, Xiliang, and Turks?"
Yang Guang showed a smile on his face, looked at Han Qinhu, and said.
"I recommend a person who is a proton of Gaochang Kingdom. The current Dr. Guanglu, whose name is Qu Boya, can be the envoy."
After Han Qinhu thought for a moment, he raised his hands and answered.
"Qu Boya?"
When Yang Guang heard this name, a rather familiar figure immediately appeared in his mind.
This Qu Boya has an extremely unusual identity.
His ancestral home is Jincheng. He is a descendant of the Qu family from the Gaochang royal family and is the son of Qu Gangu, the leader of the Gaochang Kingdom.
During the reign of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, he was ordered by his father to pay tribute to the Sui Dynasty. Because of his extraordinary appearance and elegant conversation, he was favored by Yang Jian, so he stayed in Daxing City and worshiped as Guanglu Doctor and Ben Guogong, specializing in handling the diplomatic affairs of the countries in the Western Regions. thing.
"Qu Boya can be sent as an envoy to Xiliang and Shatuo... As for the Tubo Kingdom, I am going to let Pei Ju, the Minister of Internal Affairs, be the envoy."
Yang Guang stroked his beard and said.
Pei Ju, whose courtesy name was Hongda, was born in Wenxi, Hedong. He was born in the Western family of the Pei family in Hedong. He was studious and well-read since he was a child. He served successively as the Minister of Internal History, the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and the Minister of Internal History. He was trusted by Yang Guang.
"Your Majesty's Holy Judgment is naturally excellent, and I fully support it."
Han Qinhu flattered him at the right moment.
"Then as far as the Turkic countries are concerned, who would be a more appropriate envoy to send?"
Yang Guang nodded slightly, looked at the map again, and asked casually.
but.
Before Han Qinhu could answer.
Yang Guang continued: "Do you think Wang Ke, the Marquis of Dingbei, can serve as an envoy?"
