    The turmoil in Chang'an is just a trivial thing to kill time when Chang'an is bored, but there are never those boring times in the border towns in the north.

    Just when Huang Mingyuan was fighting Datong in a bloody battle, Datou Khan, who had parted ways with Dulan Khan, also led his army to attack the Hexi region.

    The Western Turks control the entire Western Region, and Dulan's request to attack Hebei is of no benefit to him at all, and he has to pay for Dulan's wedding dress in vain.  The two failed to discuss the matter, so Datou went west alone to seek victory in the area west of Helan Mountain.

    Datou calculated that this time the two of them attacked the Sui Dynasty at the same time, the most powerful Hedong would definitely be restrained by Dulan. At that time, he could take the opportunity to conquer the Hexi states and cut off the tentacles of the Sui Dynasty extending to the Western Regions.

    At the end of April, when Datou Khan led the main force to the area north of Lingzhou, Yang Su, who led the elite Sui army, also arrived at the same time.  As a rare innovative general in history, Yang Su gave up the traditional conservative formation of using chariots, cavalry and infantry to coordinate with each other, setting up antlers, caltrops and other objects around the outside of the formation, leaving the cavalry inside.  He changed his tactics and ordered all armies to put their cavalry into position and let the fight go.

    Datou Khan was overjoyed when he heard the report of the horse exploration. He sighed for God's help and even dismounted his horse in the camp and looked up to the sky to worship.  The Western Turkic Army was eager to win, thinking that they would win this battle, and was extremely arrogant. Although more than 100,000 elite cavalry attacked the Sui Army, their military discipline was lax and their formation was not in order.

    When Sui general Shang Yi and his third commander Zhou Luohu saw this, they asked for orders to lead their elite cavalry to attack. Yang Suyun then commanded the army to advance.  More than 100,000 troops fought in the north of Lingzhou until the sky was dark and the earth was dark. In the end, the Turks were defeated. Datou Khan fled with serious injuries. The dead and wounded were countless and they left wailing.

    Not long after the Turkic army fled north, they happened to encounter the Fengzhou army who was cutting their way back. Yuguluo held a horse spear and clashed directly with the Turkic army. When Datou saw that Yuguluo was invincible, he covered his face and cried loudly. After giving up,  The army fled all the way north and stopped to the west of Langshan.

    The Sui army pursued them closely, killing and capturing countless Turkic soldiers. Even Datou's large banner became a trophy of the Sui army.

    In the Datong Town General’s Mansion, it has been more than twenty days since the Datong War.

    Huang Mingyuan threw the file in his hand on the desk. He was so upset that he couldn't read any words at all.  Huang Mingyuan warned himself that as the head of a town, he should be calm, but as soon as he sat back in front of the case and picked up the file, he finally couldn't help but drop the file, stood up, and hurried towards the door.

    "Huang Qing, Huang Qing, where did the person die?"

    Hearing Huang Mingyuan's shout, someone from the side compartment immediately came over and said, "Report to the general, Captain Huang was sent out by the general yesterday and has not returned all night."

    Huang Mingyuan took a quick look and found out that it was his scribe Ling Jing who was reporting back.  Huang Mingyuan doesn't know if he is the Ling Jing who gave Dou Jiande many ingenious ideas in history. However, the current Ling Jing is only 18 or 19 years old. He comes from a poor family and has no way to make progress. This is because Huang Mingyuan came here because of his fame in Da Po Du Lan.  defect.  Huang Mingyuan saw that he was very talented and clever, so he made him his work secretary, responsible for handling copywriting for him.

    Huang Mingyuan didn't react until he heard his answer.  Huang Qing was also sent out by himself. It has been more than half a month now. Where is Mingzhen's headquarters?

    Over the years, with his mature psychology and superhuman foresight, nothing could escape Huang Mingyuan's control except that incident. This gradually allowed Huang Mingyuan to develop the habit of having a well-thought-out plan.  But this time, Huang Mingyuan was really scared.

    Mingzhen is his flesh-and-blood brother who grew up with him. He is both father and son, and he is the closest to him among his cousins.  He is a man of few words but thoughtful, prudent and resourceful. Once he arranges something for him, he will complete it to the letter, even if he sacrifices his own life for it.  An indispensable person.  If Mingzhen is really in trouble, I really don't know how to deal with it.

    Huang Mingyuan's heart was full of heat and he couldn't sit still. He didn't ask Ling Jing to accompany him. He left the mansion and went to the north city wall.  At this time, Zheng Yanqing was inspecting the city defense.

    When Zheng Yanqing saw Huang Mingyuan arriving, he immediately stepped forward and saluted.  Huang Mingyuan quickly stepped forward and asked, "Yan Qing, is there any news?"

    Zheng Yanqing shook his head sadly and said, "The sentries sent by Fang Jie just now came back twice more. This time they crossed Yin Mountain and reached more than two hundred miles north of the foothills of Yin Mountain. Unfortunately, there is still no trace of Ming Zhen."

    Seeing Huang Mingyuan’s faceWith a haggard look on his face, Zheng Yanqing immediately comforted him and said, "Brother, don't worry. I guess Mingzhen just walked further north. Mingzhen has more than 300 fine cavalry under his command, and he has the guide given to him by Chief Hulu. There will definitely be no one."  questionable."

    Huang Mingyuan nodded approvingly: "What I'm worried about is not the Turks. Mingzhen is extremely brave and cautious. Although he is on the grassland, he can still run freely without any disadvantage. What I am most afraid of is that they are not familiar with the environment of the grassland.  Geography, encountered an irresistible environment and weather, after all, no matter how brave the army is, they have never lived on the grassland, and they are still not adapted to the grassland."

    Huang Mingyuan said silently: "There is nothing I can do about worrying now. If there are carrier pigeons, there is no need to worry so much. The problem of long-distance communication between the army will eventually be put on the agenda. But where are the military carrier pigeons? I have done a few.  Years of domestication of homing pigeons ultimately fell short because there were no suitable talents."

    Huang Mingyuan looked at Zheng Yanqing and said: "During this period, I don't have time to care about the situation in the grassland, you have to arrest him.

    Now that the Turks are newly defeated, Dulan and Datou are licking their wounds, shrinking their strength, and re-accumulating their strength. They have no time to control the tribes approaching the Sui Kingdom.  The power of the grassland is waxing and waning, and there will inevitably be great changes.

    I estimate that the Saint will send Tuli and Changsun Sheng north to recruit these forces, but I don't want Tuli to accumulate too much strength.  Therefore, during this period of time, you must keep an eye on the various tribes close to the Sui Kingdom, including the tribes that previously cooperated with us in crossing the Yin Mountains. You must not let them take this opportunity to increase their power, and try to prevent them from having any contact with Tuli.  When you see a tribe consolidating forces secretly, you must strike quickly and without mercy, so that other tribes can be alert.  "

    "No!"

    Huang Mingyuan’s face turned stern, and he added: “Including the Hu Lu Department.”

    Zheng Yanqing’s eyebrows twitched and he immediately said, “Brother, don’t worry, I will pay attention.”

    At this time, looking north from the city wall, we can see a lush grassland, boundless.  Looking up at the sky, there is no cloud shadow in the sky.  Overlooking the winding Taedong River, the setting sun hangs low on the river, and the river water is sparkling.  Huang Mingyuan was so stunned that he saw such a great river and mountains. How could he not be accompanied by Ming Zhen when he was marching across the world with a whip and horse? Ming Zhen would be fine and would come back.

    Huang Mingyuan asked Zheng Yanqing to continue patrolling, while he stood on the city wall for a long time.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
