The Summoning of the Troubled Times at the End of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 148 This is the real loyal minister!

"Use yourself as bait!"

In an instant, a few short words came out of Gao Qi's mouth like hours.

For a moment, all the generals were puzzled, not knowing the meaning of this sentence.

Immediately, Zhang Xutuo broke the silence first, and asked Gao Qi kindly, "General Gao, how do you 'use your body as bait'?"

Hearing this, Gao Qi pondered for a while, then solemnly said: "Marshal, let Ma Gong explain the specific situation to you in detail!"

Hearing this, Ma Gong, the general of the Sui Army who was rescued, walked out slowly, and first saluted Zhang Xutuo.

Then he said: "General, this is what Gao Consort means."

"On the north side of Anshicheng, there is a small road that can directly bypass Anshicheng and go straight to Lingli Pass, the only dangerous pass leading to the Koguryo King City."

"But this path must pass through a valley that no one cares about. The valley is not only steep, but also very suitable for ambushes."

"And the most frightening thing is that that valley is the habitat of 'birds and beasts'. There are not only big cats (tigers) in the valley, but also countless poisonous snakes and even poisonous insects."

For a moment, when the generals heard Ma Gong's introduction of this dead place, they couldn't help but feel shuddering, their backs felt as if a cold wind was blowing, and it was cool!

It took a long time for Ma Gong to report the situation he was familiar with.

After hearing this, Zhang Xutuo said slowly: "If this is true, I'm afraid there is no need for Yuan Gaisuwen to send troops to ambush our army, and our army will bury the beast's livestock."

"Marshal, that ferocious beast is not necessarily an unsolvable situation, in fact, there is a way to solve it."

Hearing this, Gao Qi walked out slowly, faced the crowd, and explained.

Immediately, Zhang Xutuo asked: "What is the explanation for this statement?"

Hearing this, Gao Qi cupped his hands and said, "After the final general led his army into western Liaoning, he saw many medicine men and entertainers in Goguryeo along the way."

"In a moment of curiosity, the general inquired about the reason why there are so many medicine men in Goguryeo."

"The main reason is that because of the dense beast valleys in Goguryeo, the locals purposely have such a 'medicine man' profession."

"The medicine people mainly practice poisoning and antidote at ordinary times, and they have an important skill, that is, they can drive away tigers and leopards, and they can summon poisonous snakes for their own use."

In an instant, Gao Qi's thinking was extremely quick, but within a short period of time, he was able to tell about the customs and customs in Goguryeo that he knew.

After hearing this, all the generals have not yet reacted.

This news is really too shocking, obviously beyond the imagination of many Sui generals.

That's right, almost all the generals in the tent are from the Central Plains, so there are no "wolves, tigers and leopards" in the Central Plains.

Therefore, I heard Gao Qi tell that people from foreign lands here in Goguryeo actually used expelling tigers and leopards and summoning poisonous insects as their profession.

Although the generals can kill the enemy bravely and not fear death on the battlefield, but when facing tigers, leopards and wolves.

Still can't help but feel lingering fear!

…………

After listening to the explanation for a long time, Zhang Xutuo asked what Gao Qi's real purpose was.

Immediately, Gao Qi also went straight to the topic and said: "Commander, our army can send a team to this small road to attract heavy enemy troops in the city to ambush."

"As long as the Goguryeo army goes to ambush in the small road valley, with the strength of our soldiers and the bravery of the generals, it will be 'easy' to break through the city of Anshi!"

It was said that although Zhang Xutuo also agreed with Gao Qi's proposal, he still raised some doubts, saying: "This commander and Goguryeo's coach Yuan Gai Suwen confronted each other in Liaoshui, and I deeply found that Yuan Gai Suwen is a very strong soldier. , is not easy to deal with!"

"Will he really send troops to ambush our army so that we can do what we want?"

Hearing this, Gao Qi sneered, and laughed loudly: "Of course not!"

"If it was only a little-known young general of our army leading the army, then Yuan Gai Suwen would definitely not go out of the city to ambush."

"Because Yuan Gai Suwen knew that a young general might not even be able to get out of the valley, and would be buried in the belly of the animals, so why is there a raid on Lingli Pass?"

"However, if it is replaced by a prestige and powerful general in the army, Yuan Gai Suwen will not dare to block the army. Can our army break through the valley and reach Lingli Pass?"

"Therefore, as long as our army is a full-fledged general leading the army to raid the path, then Yuan Gai Suwen will definitely go out of the city to ambush!"

For a moment, Gao Qi spoke with absolute certainty and full confidence.

After a long silence, Gao Qi suddenly stood up and asked for a fight: "Commander, since the last general led his army to conquer the East, every battle has always been 'the battle must be won, and the attack must be possible'."

"Therefore, the last general must hold a lot of weight in Yuan Gai Suwen's heart. If the last general leads the army to raid Lingli Pass, Yuan Gai Suwen will definitely lead the army out of the city."

"At that time, the commander-in-chief will storm Anshi City with his army, and he will definitely be able to conquer the city in one fell swoop!"

It's just that Gao Qi is tenacious and obliged to fight.

There is no emotion of fear between the words.

For a time, from top to bottom, no matter it was the coach Zhang Xutuo, or the other generals in the tent, everyone was deeply moved.

You know, from the analyzed information, there were wolves, insects, tigers and leopards, poisonous snakes, birds and beasts in the valley first, and finally there might be a large-scale ambush by Goguryeo.

Under this double blow, it is almost impossible for this team to attract firepower to survive!
And Gao Qi knew that the whole army might be wiped out, but he still had the duty to ask for a fight.

Therefore, how could the generals belittle Gao Qi?

After a long silence, Zhang Xutuo said slowly: "General Gao, absolutely not! You are today's son-in-law, how can you do such a dangerous thing?"

"If you make any mistakes, don't you want to make the princess a widow?"

Immediately, after some contemplation, Zhang Xutuo still rejected Gao Qi's challenge.

Among them, Gao Qi's identity is the reason for the son-in-law, but this is still secondary.

The most important thing is Gao Qi's achievements in fighting against the Hu people outside the Great Wall in northern Xinjiang, as well as his consecutive victories since the Eastern Expedition.

It has already made Zhang Xutuo look at Gao Qi with admiration.

Now Zhang Xutuo can be said to appreciate Gao Qi very much.

What he hopes is that Gao Qi can gradually grow up and become the pillar of the Sui Dynasty!
In this way, we can help the world and rejuvenate the Sui Dynasty!
It can also be seen from this that Zhang Xutuo deserves to be one of the nine elders of the Xing Sui Dynasty, and the Sui Dynasty has already fallen to the point where the sun is declining.

But Zhang Xutuo is still thinking about Da Sui, and is still fighting for the future of Da Sui!
Zhang Xutuo was the true loyal minister of the Sui Dynasty.

…………

After a while, Zhang Xutuo struggled in his heart, and said slowly: "Everyone, please listen to what I have to say!"

"General Gao's suggestion this time is very good, and it is currently the only solution that can quickly break through Anshi City."

"If this battle is dragging on, when winter comes, our army will give up all previous efforts and return without success!"

"So, this commander decided that the ambush to attract the Goguryeo army out of the city will be..."
