The Turkic envoy Tang regiment consists of 18 people, and the commander was Deputy Prime Minister Mo Yanzhuo. After careful consideration, Yang Yuanqing finally decided to get rid of this regiment. This was actually taking a huge political risk. The Turkic will know sooner or later.

It was the Sui army that took action, which would inevitably become an excellent excuse for the Turks to attack the Sui army. Yang Yuanqing knew this very well.

But everything has its pros and cons. The key is whether it is pros and cons. As long as there is 51% of the pros, it means that the pros and cons outweigh the cons. You can consider executing it. Apart from the Turkic mission, it will be correct in a short period of time.

The Sui Dynasty was beneficial. On the one hand, it could create suspicion between the Turks and the Tang Dynasty and destroy the alliance between the Turks and the Tang Dynasty to attack the Sui Dynasty.

On the other hand, this matter can delay time. The journey between Chang'an and the Turkic tent is long. It takes several months to go back and forth. At least two trips are required to eliminate the misunderstanding and reveal the truth. In this way, half a year has passed.

It won the Sui Dynasty an extremely precious half a year, so Yang Yuanqing would rather give the Turks a political excuse than seize the opportunity and win time.

At this time, the Turkic mission was rushing slowly more than ten miles away. They came from Chang'an and had been walking for ten days. The journey was very smooth. The officials along the way were welcomed and cared for. They had a deep understanding of the fine wine and food.

The meaning of distinguished guests.

However, after crossing the Yellow River, they need to walk two days of wild roads to reach the next densely populated area, Liangzhou City, Wuwei County, and come all the way from the Yellow River. The road is sparsely populated. Looking up, you can see mountains entering the clouds, and looking down, you can see Gobi and grasslands.

At the beginning, I feel open-minded, but after walking for too long, I become extremely bored.

The group was rushing on the official road silently. Mo Yanzhuo looked up from time to time to time to look at the scenery on both sides. He was a little hungry and wanted to find a place to have lunch, but there seemed to be no rivers and streams nearby.

"Great appearance!"

A follower said in Turkic words: "It seems like we passed by this when we came here. I remember there was a valley ahead, and there was a river when we left the valley, and the water was very clear."

A word reminded Mo Yanzhuo. He also remembered that there was indeed a river nearby, a very shallow and clear river. He put his hand on the curtain and looked north of the official road. The valley was not far away. Mo Yanzhuo immediately ordered: "

Speed ​​up!”

The team accelerated. After a moment, they arrived at the valley entrance. They had no doubts. After all, this was in the territory of the Great Sui Dynasty. Ten days of smooth march had already numbed their sense of consciousness. They had forgotten the danger completely.

The team directly entered the valley entrance. Shortly after they entered the valley entrance, Qin Huaiyu's face was revealed behind a big tree dozens of steps away. He was ordered to lead fifty cavalry to intercept the enemy's retreat. Qin Huaiyu was a little nervous. This is

He was in charge of an army for the first time, although there were only fifty men.

A brigade coach next to him is over thirty years old. He has been fighting for four or five years and is experienced. He noticed Qin Huaiyu's nervousness. He smiled at him and said, "Young general doesn't have to be nervous. There are only more than one hundred people on the other side, so he can escape.

Very few people came back, and there was no need for the young general to take action, so the brothers solved the problem.

Qin Huaiyu straightened his waist, and he always had to fight. He couldn't be so cowardly, "I'm not nervous, I'm looking forward to it!"

The coach smiled and whispered to him: "They have passed and are ready to release the wood!"

Several big trees have been cut off, and after a command, they moved the trees to Guandao. Qin Huaiyu was excited. He was about to give the order, but the general of the troop stopped him, "Wait a little longer! Wait until they go far

.”

Qin Huaiyu restrained his excitement and waited for the opportunity to come with hope... The valley that the official road passes through is extremely common in Jincheng County. The valley is about three or four miles long and is surrounded by dense forests on both sides. Because of this road,

It is not the Silk Road, but the Silk Road is about Huining County, so the official road seems particularly deserted.

The group looked around. The cold wind in early winter was bleak, and most of the leaves had fallen. Most of the leaves that had not fallen were red leaves, colorful and colorful, and the forests were dyed, which was so beautiful.

But everyone's minds did not seem to be enjoying the scenery. An inexplicable sense of ominousness quietly arose in everyone's heart. The Tang army captain who was guarding the Turkic mission was surnamed Liu. The more he thought about it, the more he became, the more wrong he urged his horse to run on the road.

Before, he bowed to Mo Yanzhuo and said, "We have five outposts. Logically, they should return when they find the river, but now they are less than two miles away from the river, and there are no people. This is a bit wrong!"

Mo Yanzhuo frowned, "Will they wait for us by the river?"

"Impossible! Even if you wait, three people should wait. If two people go back, five people will not wait by the river."

Mo Yanzhuo also felt it made sense. He felt a little uneasy and looked around. At this moment, a 'whoo!' sound came from the woods. This was the sound of a whistle and a crossbow arrow came like lightning.

Yan Zhuo could not dodge, "Puff!" The crossbow arrow was hitting his throat, and Mo Yan Zhuo let out a muffled cry and turned over and fell off the horse.

The whistle is the signal, and both sides of the official road were suddenly; arrows were fired at once, and the arrows were strong, and she was facing the Turkic followers and guarding the Tang army. A scream suddenly sounded on the official road. In the first round, more than 200 crossbow arrows were sent to more than 50 people fall off the horse.

The Tang army and Turkic entourage on the official road were suddenly in chaos. They were so scared that they were scattered, and dozens of cavalry turned around and fled.

At this time, the second round of arrows was released, and the crossbow arrows were accurate and powerful. More than 30 people were caught. In just two rounds of arrows, most of the more than 100 people on the official road were killed and injured, and the ground was covered with casualties and war horses.

More than forty people were left to flee.

The Sui army did not launch the third round of arrows, and the shouts of killing were shocked. Ma Shao led more than 200 Sui cavalry to break out of the woods. More than a dozen Tang cavalry who were panicking and trying to escape up the mountain happened to encounter the Sui cavalry that was out.

, thrust by a spear to the ground.

The Sui army's mission not only ambushed the team, but also prevented one person from escaping. They spread a large net to surround the Tang army, who fled, and did not accept surrender, and all the enemy troops were killed...

.

Qin Huaiyu had led people to block the retreat route of the valley with trees. He left ten soldiers to guard the entrance of the valley, and he led forty cavalry to surround him from the back. These are all things he learned from the soldiers. You should not let the troops go out, you should keep them.

It is necessary to defend the army.

Qin Huaiyu took the lead and led the soldiers to search all the way. At this time, the sound of horse hooves came from the opposite side. A Turkic follower rode a horse and rushed towards him. He was wearing two arrows and covered in blood. There were five or six Sui soldiers behind him.

Chase.

Qin Huaiyu roared, rushed forward, and stabbed the opponent with a spear. But just as the tip of the spear was about to stab the opponent, he closed his eyes. This was the first time he killed someone, and he could not face the bloody

At that moment, the spear tip pierced the Turkic people's chest, and the Turkic entourage died immediately, blood splattered Qin Huaiyu's face. He was stunned for a while, staring at the Turkic entourage on the ground... Yiwu County, a

The team consisted of more than 100,000 people, evacuated eastward. Nearly 70% of the team were Han people. Most of these Han people were landless people who moved from the Central Plains to Yiwu County during the Daye period. Some of them also committed crimes in the Central Plains and their families were sent to the public.

Yiwu's exiles also had many Wusun people who were unwilling to be conquered by the Turks. Their family moved south, with tens of thousands of people.

They set up new homes in Yiwu County, but at this moment, they had to give up their new homes and evacuate from Dunhuang County. Yang Yuanqing issued an order to temporarily abandon Yiwu County and move back to Dunhuang. This was a strategic retreat, with the 100,000 troops of the Western Turks.

He stationed troops west of Yiwu County and stared at the east.

Yiwu County is known as the Western Region Crossroad. It can enter the Hexi Corridor through Xingxing Gorge to the east, cross Zheluoman Mountain to the northeast, enter the Mobei Grassland, and go south through Yiwu Road to the south to the Tianshan Mountains. It has an extremely important strategic position.

However, in order to promote the fire of the East and West Turks, the Sui army finally decided to temporarily abandon Yiwu County and wait until the world is unified before taking Yiwu back.

The men drove carriages, loaded with old people, children and various items, slowly traveling east on the road, while the women rode on horseback, following their families, and looked back and looked around, their eyes filled with homes.

nostalgia.

On the periphery, 6,000 Sui cavalry guarded more than 100,000 people retreated eastward. They were wearing a hundred men, wearing armor and helmets, holding spears and swords in their hands, and their eyes were very alert. On a small hill, Su Dingfang was dozens of relatives.

Surrounded by soldiers, his eyes were complexly staring at the vast team.

It was Yang Yuanqing's order to give up Yiwu County and he would execute it. Su Dingfang was extremely reluctant. For him, this was not a strategic retreat, it was a retreat. No matter what the reason was, facing the eye of the 100,000 Western Turkic army.

, They did not fight, but evacuated.

The fact of withdrawing troops made Su Dingfang feel humiliated, and he had to deal with it in silence. At this time, a soldier pointed at a few horses running from the west, "General, the prefect of Wang is here!"

After a moment, several war horses rushed up the hill, and the man who was headed was about thirty years old, dark skin and gentle. He was Wang Handan, the prefect of Yiwu County. He was originally the magistrate of Dunhuang County. He was promoted to Yi last year.

The prefect of my county.

"General Su, everyone is walking so slowly. Will they be pursued by the Turkic army?" Wang Taishou's eyes were full of worry.

Su Dingfang shook his head, "She Kui has no intention of going to war with us for the time being. We are taking the initiative to evacuate. He has no need to make new enemies. After all, his number one enemy is the Eastern Turks. Maybe he can also cooperate with us strategically to deal with the desert together.

Northern Turks.”

"Does General Su think we have the possibility of cooperation with the Western Turks?" Wang Taishou asked again.

Su Dingfang showed a faint smile on his face, "Your Highness told me that at least in the eyes of the Western Turks, we have no conflict of interest with them, and the Turks in the northern desert are the common enemy of both of us. If we have a common enemy, we have the opportunity to cooperate.

, Since the Datou era, returning to Mobei was the dream of the Western Turks. It has been decades since then, and their dream of their hometown has never disappeared. Our Sui Dynasty would not occupy Mobei, and this is the cooperation between us.

The foundation of

Speaking of this, Su Dingfang looked east, with some thought in his eyes, "I guess the envoy sent by His Highness to the Western Turks is already on the way...To be continued. Welcome to vote for recommendations, monthly votes, your support
