At this time, Fengzhou was still relocating the Yiran tribe in an attempt to muddy the waters of grassland hegemony, while the horse bandit "gust of wind" heading north was already fishing in troubled waters.
The Northern Expedition will go straight to Dujin Mountain, and the key decisive battle will occur in the Mobei region, although Fengzhou needs to know more about the situation in the Monan region. Therefore, after stabilizing the situation of the troops on the grassland, Gao Zhen tentatively headed north, preparing to cross the desert and enter the Mobei region.
Gao Zhen recruited several Hu people who had been to the north from his team to serve as guides, and Li Qingyang led the way.
The further north Gao Zhen's headquarters went, the more and more miscellaneous information he received, but the information was confused with each other, and some even contradicted each other, and Gao Zhen was unable to distinguish it.
But basic information can tell that Bujia Khan has returned to Mobei, and his subordinates have gathered enough strength, and are even preparing to recapture Yudujin Mountain and re-establish their position. However, some opposition forces in the Turkic Yazhang also gathered under the leadership of the new Eastern Turkic Khan Ajisi, and were always ready to counterattack and expel Bujia Khan from power. Although the two sides are still in a stalemate stage, a battle will inevitably break out near the Turkic tent in the future to determine the ownership of the Turkic Khanate.
And another important piece of information is that the Tiele people in Mobei once again set off a wave of opposition to the Turks. Under the initiative of the Beyegu tribe, the Tiele tribes such as the Beyegu tribe, the Hun tribe, the Pugu tribe, and the Adie tribe formed an alliance, and jointly elected the leader of the Yegu tribe, Qu Gureng, as the leader of the alliance to fight against the Turks together.
Gao Zhen had known before that Tiele tribes had repeatedly raised troops to resist the Turkic rule, but he didn't take it to heart. I heard that the tribes in Tiele are complicated and not in harmony with each other. Last time, under the leadership of the Wei He tribe, they almost overthrew the Turks. In the end, they fell into the Turks' plan to divide them. Wei He, the most powerful among the tribes in Tiele, The He tribe was also destroyed.
Now that the Tiele tribes are rebelling again, no matter who wins or loses, it will cause huge waves on the grassland and consume the strength of the grassland. Even if the Tiele tribes are lucky enough to win in the end, they will eventually fall into a struggle for uneven distribution of spoils.
However, the news of the rebellion among Tiele tribes gave Gao Zhen a bold idea. He planned to lead his men to infiltrate the alliance so that he could be familiar with the situation of each tribe. Therefore, Gao Zhen went all the way north, from Qikou to Saiyin Mountain, and planned to cross Saiyin Mountain and go straight to Gonglu River. Then he would be able to enter the hinterland of the Mobei grassland and disguise himself as a grassland tribe.
But being still a hundred miles away from Saiyin Mountain, Gao Zhen realized something was wrong in this area. Numerous intelligence shows that a powerful army has been stationed in Saiyin Mountain. But now that the Turks have collapsed, there is no reason to still have an elite cavalry here.
Gao Zhen didn¡¯t dare to let down his guard and started to get serious.
There are heavy troops stationed in Saiyin Mountain, which Gao Zhen had not thought of before coming here. He had no plan to fight a big battle here at all.
Of course, Gao Zhen can also directly bypass Saiyin Mountain. After all, there are roads everywhere on the grassland. No matter how strong Saiyin Mountain is, it cannot stop Gao Zhen and others. It's just that Gao Zhen already has an adventurous spirit in his temperament, and he is also responsible for the mission of finding out the specific situation of the entire grassland. How could he allow an unidentified army to exist in Saiyin Mountain, a transportation artery.
Gao Zhen then decided to find out the power of Saiyin Mountain so as not to leave a hidden danger behind him.
The entire Saiyin Mountain area was heavily guarded by barbarians. It would be difficult for a large group of troops to enter without being discovered unless they forced their way in.
Gao Zhen ordered everyone to camp on the spot and wait for orders. Huang Mingcheng, the personal guard general under the tent, asked for orders to catch the two tongues. Gao Zhen gave Huang Mingcheng fifty horses and told him to hide his whereabouts and not be discovered by the other party.
Huang Mingcheng is only eighteen years old this year. Huang Mingyuan asked him to serve as a general in Gao Zhen's army. On the one hand, he was to put a supervisor who was not a supervisor to make Gao Zhen feel at ease; on the other hand, he also wanted to temper his cousin. On the grassland, there are countless open and hidden arrows, which can sharpen a person's character. Huang Mingcheng is a humble and unyielding man, upholds moral integrity and is clear-minded. He is a calm and capable young man, but he is too old, prone to looking forward and backward, and lacks enterprising spirit, so he is not yet handsome.
Gao Zhen is the most brave and straightforward person. Huang Mingcheng can learn from Gao Zhen's strengths and complement each other's shortcomings.
After Huang Mingcheng led fifty cavalry to the north, he divided the crowd into two, used front and rear cameras, and took turns to cover them. Huang Mingyuan also ordered six cavalry to go out in three directions, driving ten miles forward to explore the way for everyone. This is also a standing custom of the Fengzhou Army. Huang Mingyuan requires each unit, no matter how small the number is, and if there is an urgent matter, one unit should be sent out to explore the way for the advancers to guard against ambushes.
The current Sui army is well-equipped and has superior combat power. It is not afraid of a decisive frontal battle. However, it is only easy to suffer a major defeat when encountering an ambush battle with reckless advance. Historically NorthThose battles after the Song Dynasty in which the weak defeated the strong, including the Battle of Gaoliang River and the Battle of Sanchuankou, were all caused by the general underestimating the enemy and being ambushed and the entire army was annihilated.
?????????????????????????The crowd has traveled north for almost thirty or forty miles, and has already entered the periphery of the opponent's rangers.
Huang Mingcheng became more and more cautious and did not dare to let go. He just ordered his subordinates to reconnoiter the opponent's situation section by section.
At this time, the reconnaissance cavalry from the northeast came to report and found dozens of Hu cavalry patrolling northeast of them, about five miles away from them.
Hu Qi was flying a white flag with a wolf pattern on it, which was similar to the Turkic flag. But some of the flags still had the image of an eagle on them, which surprised Huang Mingcheng.
The Turks, Tiele and other tribes all use wolves as their totems, and most of their battle flags use wolves as their patterns, but few tribes use the eagle as their totem.
Huang Mingyuan was not sure of the other party's identity, and he did not dare to be too reckless.
At this time, several more cavalrymen reported back, but there were no other troops around the opponent's patrolling cavalry.
Huang Mingcheng felt relieved and saw that the number of people was about the same, so he decided to eat the dozens of Hu Qi and capture two tongues.
Huang Mingcheng immediately divided his troops into two and unified one half, and handed the other half to the deputy general, ordering him to bypass the opponent and block the opponent's retreat from behind.
The two were separated for almost half a quarter of an hour. Huang Mingcheng ordered everyone to wear armor and hold knives, preparing to fight.
Huang Mingcheng grabbed the horse's belly, took out the horizontal knife in his hand, gradually accelerated, and rushed forward. Everyone was wielding spears or machetes, and some were holding maces. They followed Huang Mingcheng and rushed in swarm.
Since everyone is now a horse bandit, they cannot use the Sui army's standard equipment on a large scale. Only generals are equipped with a horizontal sword each. As for the soldiers, they had scimitars, spears, maces all of them, but they were all fine and good weapons, enough to suppress the barbarians. However, they were not equipped with crossbows, which made Huang Mingcheng a little uncomfortable.
At a distance of five miles, the cavalry arrived in an instant. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
