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

Chapter 449 The Last Battle of Returning South

Chapter 440: The Last Battle of Returning South

After fierce negotiations between the two parties, the matter of Jiuyuan City was finally finalized. Tang Jun used 15 shi of military rations as a bargaining chip in exchange for Jiuyuan City.

Just to say, at the last moment of finalizing, the guards outside the mansion immediately rushed to the mansion, hurriedly bowed their hands and saluted, and then said hastily: "King Qi, the Sui general Yang Yeming scouted Chuanlin, called Jin Ren There is an iron cavalry going deep into the territory of Mayi."

"At this time, this barbarian cavalry burned, killed, looted, smashed the county government office, slaughtered officials, and committed all kinds of evil. Now they are wandering around the Wuzhou Mountain area near Yunnei Town, as if they are looking for something?"

Originally, Guo Ziyi and Guo Ziyi were discussing the final matter regarding Jiuyuan City, but the sudden appearance of the Jin Army disrupted Gao Qi's deployment.

Especially when he heard that the Jin people massacred officials and wantonly burned, killed and looted, they immediately became furious, got up angrily, and punched the case table, and even the case table fell apart for a while. It can be seen that at this time How strong is Gao Qi, and how angry he is!
"Wanyan Aguda, you are so reckless, so Gu will definitely let you know how to write the word "fear" this time."

For a moment, Gao Qi was extremely angry, and even Guo Ziyi, who was the envoy, couldn't help being frightened and didn't know how to speak.

Although Guo Ziyi also knew that Gao Qi hated Hu Kou, he did not expect that his anger was almost so strong, as if he had a natural hatred with Hu Kou.

After a long time, Gao Qi gradually calmed down, and said to Guo Ziyi who was beside him: "General Guo, it seems that our final discussion cannot be completed with you alone!"

"However, Gu Dao will not break his promise. This exchange of cities will continue, but it is the last matter between Li Jing under Gu's command and you."

"Li Jing?"

"What is the charm of Gao Qi that even a great talent like Li Jing is under his banner and willing to work for him?"

It's just that, hearing Li Jing's name for a while, even Guo Ziyi was shocked, and he thought secretly in his heart for a long time.

After all, others don't know Li Jing's true talents, but as a member of the Guanlong nobles, Guo Ziyi knows it very well. At the beginning, Li Jing's uncle Han Qinhu had friends with generals like Guo Ziyi and had long gatherings.

Li Jing, who was still a young man at that time, showed extraordinary talents, which made many bureaucrats and noble heroes admire him. Even when Li Yuan captured Guanlong and ordered to hunt down and kill Li Jing who had tried to recommend him, Guo Ziyi stood up and opposed it.

"King of Tang, don't you want to raise troops against the Sui Dynasty and seize Guanlong? Don't you have the world's ambition? For a great talent like Li Jing, you should be promoted to rank. If you wantonly win over, how can you kill him and destroy your own strength?"

These were the original words of Guo Ziyi's persuasion at the time, but at the time Li Yuan was suffering from Lu Zhi and Wei Wensheng's massive resistance, which only increased casualties.

Otherwise, Li Jing has already taken refuge in Li Tang as in the original history, so how can Gao Qi still have his share?

However, with the matter at this point, Guo Ziyi had no choice but to look forward, and said slowly: "Since this is the case, then King Qi will lead the army to resist the wanton Hu bandits in the territory with peace of mind."

"A certain person and Li Jing are old acquaintances. I know his nature well, and he will definitely take care of the overall situation for our two families!"

Immediately, today's negotiation came to an end temporarily, and Guo Ziyi also left.

Afterwards, Gao Qi also summoned the generals to come and inform the generals of this military situation, so that they all get ready and are ready to march at any time.

Suddenly, Gao Qi had a sudden whim, and asked Guo Jiaxiang, the advisor beside him, "Feng Xiao, what do you think the Hu Kou's purpose is this time?"

Hearing this, Guo Jia smiled and said slowly: "King Qi, actually you already have a guess in your heart, you can only ask Feng Xiao if you are not sure, right?"

"Why don't you and I, the monarch and the minister, follow the example of Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang in the Three Kingdoms period, and write down our thoughts in our palms, and then open them together?"

"Okay, Feng Xiao's words are just in line with Gu's intentions!"

For a while, Gao Qi was also in a good mood at this time, slightly stroking the green beard that had begun to emerge under his chin, and agreed.

Immediately, under the watchful eyes of the generals, the two of them wrote in their palms with the brush on the case table. After about tens of seconds, the two stood up straight and clenched their fists.

"Feng Xiao, Gu Gao counted one, two, three, and we opened our hands together, how about it?"

"it is good!"

Immediately, Guo Jia also laughed and answered.

"One"

two

three"

After counting, the two spread their palms together as if they had a heart-to-heart agreement, then looked at each other, and burst out laughing, because the writing on their palms was exactly the same, as if they had a heart-to-heart agreement.

White Mountain

Yes, that’s right, Gao Qi, what Guo Jia wrote was about Bai Dengshan, the fundamental goal of Hu Kou’s entry into the inland this time is Bai Dengshan, and wandering around Wuzhou Mountain is just a cover to deceive people’s eyes.

For a moment, his general, the warrior Xun, didn't understand the meaning of it, so he came out of the line and asked, "Bai Dengshan?"

"But Mount Baideng is just an ordinary high mountain. How could Hu Kou travel thousands of miles south to set his goal here?"

Following this question, all the generals in the army were puzzled and looked at Gao Qi, hoping for an answer.

However, it is obvious that Gao Qi doesn't need to answer it himself, someone has already answered for him, and at this time Bai Qi slowly stood up and said, "In General Yimo's opinion, Hu Kou's goal this time is Qi Qi on Bai Dengshan. Statues of kings and other generals, right?"

“How come you see?”

Hearing this, Gao Qi pretended to ask questions knowingly, but in fact, he used this ability to ask for advice for nothing.

At this time, Bai Qi already knew Gao Qi's plan, took a deep breath, and said slowly: "King Qi, generals, one of the reasons why I made such a decision is because of the importance of Bai Climbing to China."

"Bai climbed the mountain. Huo Qubing, the general of the Hussars of the Han Dynasty, made a great victory in the first battle, and he became famous in the First World War. A few years ago, when the general of the Jin army passed by here, he was ambushed by the king of Qi and died. this."

"Since then, the power of Baideng Mountain has been fully revealed, and the people of China have regarded it as my sacred mountain in China, an important barrier against Hu Kou, and its strategic importance is self-evident!"

"Moreover, since King Qi led the army to go south, in order to commemorate King Qi and the generals who participated in this battle, the local people spontaneously built embankments, built statues, and painted portraits of King Qi and other generals on Baideng Mountain to commemorate .”

"Although the people praised King Qi's reputation one after another, it was built on the corpse of the golden man. The barbarian and wolf lord Wanyan Aguda will definitely not swallow this breath, and it is reasonable to send troops to destroy it."

It has to be said that Bai Qi's analysis was really incisive, and almost all the reasons were analyzed, which was extremely accurate. At this time, Gao Qi also nodded repeatedly in agreement.

Immediately afterwards, Gao Qi wanted to test the generals under his command, and immediately asked a question for the generals to think about, saying: "I don't know what you generals think, how should our army wipe out this barbarian cavalry?"

Hearing this, the other generals were all deep in thought, without speaking for a long time, only Li Jing, Bai Qi was calm and composed, as if he already had an answer in his heart.

For a moment, Gao Qi saw it in his heart, and couldn't help but secretly said: "Could this be the difference after the commander reaches 100?"

To tell the truth, Bai Qi and Li Jing are the only three military strategists under Gao Qi's command who have broken hundreds of commanders, so Gao Qi will deliberately test whether his talents are true.

As for the other one, he is also the Martial Saint Yue Fei of the Four Great Army Gods, but his commander is also the lowest among them. On the contrary, his military strength is the highest commander.

After a long time, Bai Qi stood up first, and said confidently: "King Qi, if the last general is in command of this battle, he will definitely be killed to the point where there will be rivers of blood and mountains of corpses."

"As for the deployment plan, since Hu Kou's goal is to climb the mountain, why don't our army push the boat along the way and lead them here, and then set up an ambush to wipe them out in one fell swoop."

"After all, with the terrain here on Baideng Mountain, whoever occupies it first will have a huge advantage. At that time, with the elite of our army and the geographical advantage, is it possible that we will not be able to annihilate the Hu Kou?"

It has to be said that Bai Qi is indeed worthy of being a military strongman, and he has already thought of a plan to annihilate the Hu Kou in just a quarter of an hour. It can be seen from this that after the commander-in-chief has reached the 100th level, his realm is indeed different!

After thinking about it carefully, Bai Qi's strategy is actually a battle of annihilation, using the steep terrain of Bai Dengshan, and then setting up an ambush, then using superior forces to wipe them all out in one fell swoop!
However, this style of play is often "killing one thousand enemies, and self-defeating eight hundred". To be honest, Gao Qi is extremely unwilling to do this unless he has to, because the reason for doing so can only be his own. The army was seriously injured.

However, in a blink of an eye, Gao Qi thought of a new question, and suddenly asked: "No, at this time Hu Kou has arrived near Wuzhou Mountain, and Wuzhou Mountain is only a mountain away from Baideng Mountain. How can our army catch up?" How about rushing here to set up an ambush before?"

Hearing this, Bai Qi couldn't help being taken aback, and explained: "King Qi, don't worry!"

"Although Bai Dengshan is near Wuzhou Mountain, even if it is in front of him, the last general can guarantee that within a few days, Hu Kou will definitely not be able to find this place."

"It should be noted that Hu Kou is not familiar with the inland terrain, let alone looking for a mountain top. Near Baideng Mountain, there are two big mountains, Hezhen Mountain and Wuzhou Mountain, which are surrounded by mountains and surrounded by mountains."

"At this time, the king of Qi can send a message first, and the general will inform Yang Ye who is stationed at Yanmen Pass, and let him lead the army to this place to defend the defense first, and lie in ambush, waiting for the arrival of Hu Kou."

"As for the king of Qi, he can temporarily lead the cavalry one step ahead, advance at full speed, and run wildly. I believe that with the speed of day and night, when Hu Kou finds Bai Dengshan, he will also arrive at the same time."

For a while, Bai Qi almost explained all his strategies and situations. As for how to choose, the next step is Gao Qi's consideration.

Just when Gao Qi was having a hard time making a choice, he found Li Jing on the side hadn't said a word, so he couldn't help but stepped forward and asked, "Pharmacist, what do you think about Bai Qi's plan?"

At this time, I thought that Li Jing also agreed with Bai Qi's plan to wipe out the rebels, but the fact was unexpected, because Li Jing's plan was not to wipe out the rebels, but a more crazy plan.

Go deep into the grassland and surprise Altai!

This was Li Jing's plan. Compared with the former, it seemed a bit more crazy and bold. However, it is not surprising that Li Jing led the light army to surprise the Khan's court in history and wiped out the Turkic forces.

However, this does not mean that Li Jing's plan is static. Although Li Jing's plan is also to go deep into the grassland at this time, it is not a surprise attack on the Turkic royal court.

After all, Wanyan Aguda at this time is not a schemer. If he raided the royal court, his army may only come and go. After all, they are going deep into the grassland. It is really self-defeating.

According to Li Jing, the reason for the surprise attack on Altai was because the Altai tribe was a loyal and steadfast member of the Wanyan family, and destroying them in one fell swoop was also to deter Wanyan Aguda from acting rashly.

This is to send a signal to tell Wanyan Aguda that if you invade China, I will destroy your entire tribe, depending on how long you can last.

However, after Gao Qi heard about Li Jing's plan, he did not cancel Bai Qi's plan. Instead, he had an idea and combined the two plans to form a brand new plan.

If the plan is right, not only can the Hu Kou be completely wiped out this time, but the Altai tribe can also be completely wiped out in one fell swoop, which is a warning to Wanyan Agu.

After the plan was settled, Gao Qi ordered the sergeants who went to rectify the cavalry of the headquarters under his command to prepare for departure. Since he was in a hurry this time, Gao Qi still only led the cavalry ahead.

As for the infantry, they stayed where they were, waiting for Li Jing and Guo Ziyi to hand over the matter of Jiuyuan City, and then followed them to Yanmen.

The reason why he handed over the matter of negotiating with Tang Jun to Li Jing, not Bai Qi, is because Li Jing's prestige is relatively white, and he has built up his military prestige long ago. If you improve, you can convince the public.

Secondly, there is the problem of vision. Li Jing was born in a bureaucratic family, and he followed Han Qinhu since he was a child, and he got along with celebrities in society.

To deal with such a character, Li Jing undoubtedly has many methods, and it is more appropriate to leave it to him. As for the issue of trust, there is no need to say more!
If Gao Qi was always afraid of Li Jing, why would he risk his life to chase him back thousands of miles away? What's the point of doing so?
As the saying goes: "Don't doubt people, don't doubt people, the king chooses his ministers, and the ministers also choose the emperor. It must be that the monarch can only show enough trust, and the ministers can maintain loyalty."

Later, when Gao Qi personally led the army to set off, he also ordered the sentry cavalry to gallop to Yanmen Pass, and asked Yang Ye to immediately lead the army to ambush on the front line of Baideng Mountain, waiting all the time.

As for the generals who destroyed the Hu Kou this time, they were Bai Qi with a commander of 102, as well as Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Zhang Shigui, plus Chen Dao, the god general Li Cunxiao, etc.

With such a lineup, Gao Qi still doesn't believe that his side will not be able to destroy the Hu Kou's invading cavalry?
However, the most critical thing this time is to guard Bai Dengshan and not let Hu Kou suddenly climb up the mountain, otherwise the sacred mountain that represents China's symbol will be destroyed.

Otherwise, even if Gao Qi played well in this battle, even if Hu Kou was completely wiped out, it would be useless, because Hu Kou's goal had already been achieved.
