This time, there was really plenty of food and supplies. Wu Yi Zong, surrounded by soldiers, was very comfortable and leisurely lying on the grass in the canyon. I just wanted to wait until the Tibetans retreated and then go out and take credit.
However, his close aides had new suggestions.
"Grand Governor, we can't just hide. Those Tibetans come and go, and come and go. They loot and run away every time. How many enemy troops can the people led by the third deputy governor leave behind?" Human heads... it’s hard to say.”
"What do you mean?"
Wu Yizong turned his head and looked over.
In fact, he was a little worried about this.
The enemy's head is the military merit for promotion. The three deputy governors did not follow Wu Yi Zong. What if they don't give up the military merit to themselves?
Furthermore: Even if you are willing to give in, if you brought more than 30,000 troops here, will you just go back with some pheasant feathers, rabbit skins, and grass roots?
It's easy to say but not nice to hear. How shameless is it?
Do you want him to fight the enemy? He won't go. Send troops out to fight? Nope either. Who will protect him?
I heard the staff reply with a sinister smile: "The Tubo people can't grab too much land. The borders of the five states are so long, and there are still many large and small villages and small counties.
Furthermore, the boundaries of these five states are very mountainous and densely forested, and there are many places where untouchables live. They are not only remote but also rarely visited by people. Not to mention that the Tubo people can't find it, even we don't know how many there are..."
Wu Yizong understood.
He climbed up excitedly, put his hands on his hips and called to his confidant Dai Wei, and ordered in a low voice: "You and a few others, take some people and go back to look for the villages in the deep mountains and old forests. kind……"
He said, raising his eyebrows.
David suddenly understood.
This is to kill the good and take credit!
Use the heads of those easy-to-cut untouchables as the heads of enemies, and finally earn a lot of military merit.
Once you understand, take action. Duan Meng mobilized ten teams of five hundred soldiers each, sharpened their swords, and set off.
…
And the other side. Opposite the northern and northeastern borders of the Great Xia Dynasty, the Turks also moved.
This is a series of chain reactions that will be triggered by instability in the country and the border.
Not to mention internal enemies, even external enemies will take advantage of your illness and kill you.
Following the internal rebellion in the armed forces and the Tibetan troops attacking the border, the Turks were also preparing to pass through the Helan Mountains and attack Fengzhou in one fell swoop.
Fengzhou is closest to the capital city of the Great Xia Dynasty. In the past, Fengzhou was also the place they fought the most.
There were also attacks on the Songmo Protectorate, and then all the way to Cangzhou from there. But not only is it far away from the capital city, it's also out of reach now.
General Cheng Tingcheng of the Great Xia Dynasty was guarding there.
Previously, the Turks also sent small-scale troops to raid Songmo, but they failed to return, not even a body could be brought back. They didn't want to touch Cheng Ting's spear anymore.
Toyosu is a soft persimmon that can be pinched constantly.
There were Turkic ministers who were not optimistic and dissuaded them: "Khan, the people of the Great Xia Dynasty are very cunning. At this time, it is impossible for them not to take strict precautions against us. If you want to send troops to attack Fengzhou, you may It’s hard to win if you’re trapped in their machinations. Please think twice.”
There were also ministers who were equally unfavorable and echoed: "Yes, Ke Han, if we rashly dispatch such a large army and fall into their trap and lose our troops and not even grab any supplies...this winter, our life would have been miserable." It’s not a good time.”
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
The commander of an army jumped out and objected very savagely and domineeringly: "The three armies have not yet moved, but you dare to confuse the people with your monstrous words and say these depressing words to disrupt the morale of the army. Are you living impatiently?"
Other generals jumped out and agreed: "That's right! You scholars are really just as cowardly and cowardly as the civil servants of the Great Xia Dynasty. What capabilities do they have? A group of sheep controlled by women, This can scare you like this, you really embarrass our great Turks!"
In this way, like all the courts, the civil and military elites began to quarrel.
But Han listened impatiently to their quarrel, drew out his scimitar, and said with great momentum: "The attack plan that has been discussed with Tubo must not be changed! What's more, they have already started fighting, and what about us?
Are we, the warriors of the prairie, retreating? That will only make everyone come to see our joke! Prairie wolves, cheer up and fight against Daxia, snatching food, money and women! "
"Ouch, ouch, ouch!!!"
Outside, there were countless echoes.
For a moment, no birds dared to fly over the area within a few miles.
However, some wolves in the depths of the grassland heard this. After hesitating for a moment, they shook their heads and changed directions to continue hunting.
But the Turkic Khan was actually not stupid.
After boosting his morale, he re-planned an offensive route.
That is, they neither took Songmo nor Helan Mountain to attack Fengzhou, but chose a route that had never been invaded before.
Cross the Yin Mountains and go straight to Yunzhou.
The Yinshan Mountains are extremely long and are also the watershed and border between the Turks and the Daxia Dynasty. It is oriented east-west, while Helan Mountain is oriented north-south, and the tail at one end runs vertically through Yinshan Mountain.
Therefore, it was convenient for them to attack Daxia through Helan Mountain.
This time, they planned to pass through the Yinshan Mountain barrier and then seize Yunzhou. In fact, this was more able to penetrate into the heart of the Great Xia Dynasty than taking Fengzhou.
I haven't done this before, just because the road to Yunzhouyun is really difficult...
They rode back and forth again, and there was another river in the direction of them in Yunzhou, which was very inconvenient.
The Turkic Khan wanted to catch Daxia Dynasty off guard and would rather take the risk.
Of course, he didn't just formulate such a single plan. He also quietly arranged another 20,000 troops and horses, and still went to Fengzhou.
That is the guarantee that can give him the bottom.
Even if the attack on Yunzhou fails, they can still turn from Yunzhou to Fengzhou within the Great Xia Dynasty, and attack Fengzhou from both sides with their hidden troops.
No matter what happens, if Yunzhou fails to seize it, they will have to retreat to the Turkic territory, and Fengzhou can directly plunder it, so it will not be considered a complete defeat.
It's not a trip in vain. Otherwise, his position as the newly appointed Khan would be in jeopardy.
With the plan finalized, the troops of each tribe, who had been waiting for them, began to assemble in the direction designated by Yinshan Mountain.
And those 20,000 people also headed straight towards the Helan Mountains. This time, their army was tasked with a major harvest. If you don't succeed, you will be benevolent.
