    According to sufficient intelligence, Bujia Khan¡¯s main force of more than 100,000 people has arrived in the Wenchi (Jilantai Salt Lake) area in the northwest of Lingzhou.  The Turkic army camped for more than ten miles, with countless cattle, sheep, and horses all over the mountains and fields.

    Wenchi is located on the alluvial fan in the north of Helan Mountain, looking south to the mountains and backed by the Gobi Desert.  The terrain is flat, low-lying and open on all sides, making it suitable for large-scale cavalry operations.

    Usually, when the Hu people attack Lingwu, they usually attack to Shizui Mountain, or along the trail of Helan Mountain, or southward along the Yellow River. Their purpose is to directly threaten the hinterland of the Lingwu Plain and directly attack the Sui army, which must be rescued.  This time, uncharacteristically, they remained motionless in Wenchi, and instead seemed to want to stalemate with the Sui army.

    "The Turks are going to fight us to the death in Wenchi."

    Yang Su pointed to the map and said to Yang Guang: "Your Majesty, it is about five hundred miles from Huile (Lingzhou government office) to Wenchi, and it is more than three hundred miles from Shizui Mountain. The Hu people are not afraid of this distance.  , we are fighting together on foot and cavalry. If we go north on a large scale, the transportation of grain and grass will be a big problem.

    And along the way, after passing Helan Mountain, there is an open area without any defensible area.

    Bujia, an old fox, has grasped our idea of ??a quick fight and wants to force us to move our huge bodies and go north to fight him.  And he can wait for work on the battlefield that has been preset.  "

    Yang Guang nodded. He was also a man who knew the military well and knew that the current assault distance of the army was too long.

    At this time, Yuan Shou suggested: "Your Majesty, Bujia Xinding Grassland probably wants a decisive battle more than us. If we block Shizui Mountain in the north and Qingtong Gorge in the south, Bujia will have no other choice but to attack by force. The Turks  People come from afar and are more afraid of attrition than we are. In the end, the Turks can only enter our army's preset battlefield for a decisive battle."

    Yu Wenshu shook his head and said: "Shaoqing Yuan, Bujia will not only attack Lingzhou, but may also retreat directly to the grassland. Our 200,000 troops gathered in Lingzhou are not here to play hide-and-seek with Bujia Khan.  "

    The Turks wanted to defeat the main force of the Sui army, and the Sui army also wanted to severely damage the Turkic army. Otherwise, if they repeated it several times, they would be exhausted.

    Yu Wenshu¡¯s idea is exactly what Yang Guang wants.  I went through all the trouble to come to Lingzhou, not just to go through the motions.  If he couldn't defeat the Turks, why should he return to Chang'an with his military exploits and establish himself as Prince Ding?

    Yuan Shou thought to himself that he could just leave, but no one invited him to come.  But seeing Yang Guang's frowning eyebrows, he didn't dare to speak.  Anyone who wants to influence Yang Guang to perform meritorious service at this time is his enemy.

    Regardless of his position, Huang Mingyuan also supports Yuan Shou's point of view.  Now it is obvious that the Turks want more, and the army is waiting in Lingzhou. A national war involving hundreds of thousands of people will not be accomplished overnight.

    At this time, Yang Guang raised his head and saw Huang Mingyuan. His heart moved, and he opened his mouth and asked, "Mingyuan, you have fought many battles with the Turks. What do you think?"

    Huang Mingyuan sighed in his heart. He couldn't even hide. Shouldn't you ask Yang Su at this time?

    "It's a pity that although Yang Guang tried his best to win over Yang Su, he also wanted to seize the military power of the North as much as possible, so naturally he would not be willing to just be Yang Su's puppet.  Therefore, he did not want Yang Su to interfere too much in military affairs.

    "Your Majesty, judging from the current situation, Bujia has great intentions and will not always be at odds with our army. The general also agrees with Yang Taipu's point of view. The Turks hope to have a decisive battle with our army in the Wenchi area. By pulling  Longer our army's supply line and marching distance will weaken our army's combat effectiveness. As for the fate of the Turks, if our army insists on not taking the bait, they will still make other moves. After all, Bujia mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops from various grassland tribes to attack this time.  The Sui Dynasty was a desperate act. If there was no result and it was all in vain, he would have no way to explain to the Turks."

    "General Huang, you are making some assumptions."

    As soon as Huang Mingyuan finished speaking, Yu Wenshu retorted: "Bujia Khan became the first khan to unify the two Turks in 20 years. How could his status not be significant? Just based on speculation, you think that Bujia Khan would not fight this  It is completely nonsense to say that there is no way to explain to the Turks in the first battle. In the third year of the founding of the Emperor, Shabolu Khan went south and was defeated. He professed his vassalship and made peace. Didn't this Khan also take good care of it? Going south to Cana was to establish his authority.  That¡¯s true, but is it possible that a new khan risked everything to attack the Sui Dynasty? General Huang, do you think it is better for the Turks to attack the strong cities of the Sui Dynasty or retreat to the grasslands? "

    Huang Mingyuan looked at Yang Guang and did not answer Yu Wenshu's question.

    From a common sense point of view, Yu Wenshu's statement makes sense. Bujia Khan is considered a founding monarch. If you say that he does not have much power, no one will believe it.

    Regarding the current situation of the Turks, Huang Mingyuan told Yang Guang many times.  But that¡¯s it, people will accept whatever evidence you give them if they don¡¯t want to believe it.Denial.

    Yu Wenshu said righteously: "Everyone, the saint sent us here, hoping that we can defeat the Turks. Otherwise, the Turks will hover on the border of our Sui Dynasty, harassing us day and night, and our Sui Dynasty will not be able to hold the army for a long time.  stationed on the frontier."

    Yang Guang said, nodding his head.

    Then he looked at everyone again and asked: "What are the opinions of the generals?"

    Seeing Yang Guang's resolute attitude, everyone knew that the decisive battle could not be changed, so no one deliberately disliked him anymore.

    Yang Guang stood up, holding a sword in his hand, looking at everyone, and said decisively: "Since no one has any objections, let the army go north and fight directly with the Turks."

    "No!"

    After that, it is the deployment of the decisive battle.  Yang Guang decided that Sun Sheng, the commander-in-chief of Qinzhou's march, and Cui Hongdu, the commander-in-chief of Yuanzhou's march, would lead the armies to prepare for the various prefectures and counties in Guanxi.

    Murong Sanzang, the commander-in-chief of Diezhou, led the South Route Army out of Qingtongxia; Duan Wenzhen, the commander-in-chief of the march in Lingzhou, went north along the Yellow River and out of Dengkou. The two armies attacked Wenchi from the north and south.

    Yang Guang himself personally led more than 100,000 main troops to attack Wenchi.

    Shi Peiju, the governor of Lingzhou, is in charge of grain and grass affairs.

    As a close confidant of Yang Guang, Huang Mingyuan is also a member of the army who can be trusted at critical moments. Naturally, he is with his army in the Chinese Army to protect Yang Guang.

    Yang Guang¡¯s formation is quite satisfactory.  But it can be seen that he has a grand plan, which is to swallow up Bujia's main force in one fell swoop and complete his victory in one battle.

    And deputy commander Yang Su was completely ignored by Yang Guang.

    Of course, Yang Su has been marching for decades and fighting countless battles, so he does not look down upon this military achievement.  Moreover, he had already made up his mind to leave this battle entirely to Yang Guang, so as to avoid Yang Guang's jealousy in the future.

    The generals ordered their names one by one. When Yang Guang saw that the arrangements were completed, he turned around and said to Yang Su: "Prince Yang, Lingzhou is the base camp of our army. It is very important. I hope that the servant will guard the camp personally.  To reassure the troops."

    "Old minister, take your orders."

    Yang Su knew Yang Guang¡¯s character and readily accepted the order.  If you stay in Lingzhou, you will stay in Lingzhou. In any case, it is about this battle.

    Of course, Yang Guang also reciprocated the favor. Yang Su's sons Yang Wanxiang and Yang Jishan were brought to the Chinese army by Yang Guang, preparing to help them gain some military exploits.

    At this time, Yang Guang looked at the generals who had taken the order and was very happy. He was just waiting to lead the army northward and kill everyone.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
