Huang Mingyuan had planned long ago to recruit Dou Jiande for his own use. As we have more and more soldiers and horses, and our territory becomes larger and larger, it is far from enough to rely on the talents we cultivate by ourselves. In the future, we must be inclusive and recruit talents from a wide range of sources. And Dou Jiande came from a humble background, was talented in both literature and martial arts, and loved the people. He was the perfect talent for the county.
And giving Dou Jiande such a high salary can also better recruit talents from the various armies.
Once your reputation is established, you don¡¯t have to worry about being a capable minister or a good person in the future. If he did not have a reputation for being lenient to prisoners, Dou Jiande would not dare to surrender.
However, it is necessary to be on guard against others. Huang Mingyuan would rather grant him a county than let him lead troops for the time being. But now that Dou Jiande is left by his side, he will no longer be able to lead troops.
Dou Jiande's unit is not weak in combat effectiveness and has many generals who are good at fighting. It would be a pity to disband like this. However, if you join the army under Huang Mingyuan, you will not be able to act on your own, and you will have to reorganize and reform according to Huang Mingyuan's requirements.
Huang Mingyuan thought for a long time. In order to better digest Dou Jiande's ministry, replacing Dou Jiande with Dou Zhang is the best choice and both parties can accept it.
Dou Jiande had to escape at this time, but he did not forget his mission. As Huang Mingyuan said, Gao Shida was very kind to him, and he felt really guilty for betraying Gao Shida for his son this time.
So Dou Jiande wanted to intercede for Gao Shida, and hoped to go to Gao Shida's army to persuade the opponent to surrender.
But Huang Mingyuan refused.
"Jiande should understand that Gao Shida is not only Gao Shida, but also involves countless aristocratic families. If I let Gao Shida go, I will also let go of the intricate relationships behind him. After I leave, this Bohai County There are no changes from before, so what's the point of my coming here?
"But I also know Jiande's mood. I can assure you that if Gao Shida did not die in the rebellion and would no longer be an enemy of our army, I would let him live as appropriate. It's up to you." "
Huang Mingyuan's words to this extent have already given Dou Jiande a lot of face. Dou Jiande naturally has nothing to say.
Dou Jiande knew very well that Huang Mingyuan's courtesy to him was to give him face, but if he didn't accept this face, he would lose his face.
He couldn't control the affairs of the big shots, so he had no choice but to leave.
Huang Mingyuan sent Dou Jiande away, then summoned the generals to prepare to send troops.
He told everyone about Dou Jiande and prepared to use his plan to make Dou Jiande pretend to be in trouble in the army and lure Gao Shida into taking the bait. At the same time, they set up ambushes around them, trying to defeat the opponent in one fell swoop.
Of course, Huang Mingyuan does not completely trust Dou Jiande. It is normal for such a hero to do anything. Therefore, Huang Mingyuan ordered Jing Yuanheng to lead his troops to monitor Dou Jiande's troops. If Dou Jiande made any changes, he would immediately send troops to annihilate him. At the same time, he ordered that the camps prepared for chaos were only those of the Huaiyi Army and should not affect the main force of the Chinese army.
Huang Mingyuan was ready and waiting for Gao Shida's arrival, but at this time Gao Shida was also full of ambition.
Dou Jiande sent back the secret letter, saying that Huang Mingyuan had completely believed in his surrender and had no precautions against it. His troops were preparing to cause chaos tonight and counterattack Huang Mingyuan's army, and asked Gao Shida to lead his army to cooperate.
Gao Shida was overjoyed when he heard this.
He actually believed that it was really possible for Dou Jiande to win Huang Mingyuan's trust with his honest and honest appearance as a farmer who suffered a lot and had deep hatred.
So Gao Shida had 40,000 troops on the hour, preparing to approach the Sui army camp.
As for Dou Jiande¡¯s betrayal, Gao Shida doesn¡¯t believe it. Dou Jiande's family was ruined, and Dou Xianniang, a daughter he usually regarded as a treasure, was still in Leling City. How could he betray her.
At this time, Gao Shida's troops quietly approached the Sui army's camp ten miles away, and the Sui army had no precautions at all.
Gao Shida ordered his men to keep a close eye on the Sui army camp in the distance, not daring to defend at all.
When it was almost the fourth watch, suddenly a fire broke out in the Sui army camp, followed by a noise. Even from miles away, Gao Shida could feel the chaos in the Sui army's camp.
Gao Shida knew that Dou Jiande had succeeded. Looking at the blazing fire, Gao Shida no longer hesitated and ordered the entire army to attack with a wave of his hand, heading straight towards the Sui army camp.
Tens of thousands of thieves swarmed forward, creating a huge formation.
Gao Shida led everyone and rushed outside the Sui army camp. At this time, they could only hear the sounds of fighting and fighting in the camp.
Gao Shida no longer had any doubts, so he ordered his men to break open the gate of the camp, and his troops broke in.
At this time, there were fires everywhere in the Sui military camp, andThe figures everywhere are even more shadowy. Gao Shida entered the camp, and Dou Jiande's general Liu Ya led his troops to Gao Shida's horse.
"Where is General Dou?"
"Back to Donghai Gong, General Dou is leading his men to attack the Sui army's central tent and has surrounded Huang Mingyuan. The Sui army is resisting fiercely, and I ask Donghai Gong to quickly support him."
Gao Shida was overjoyed when he heard that Dou Jiande surrounded Huang Mingyuan. If Huang Mingyuan could be captured alive or killed in this battle, he would become famous all over the world, and becoming king and hegemony would no longer be a dream.
So Gao Shida quickly led the main force towards the Sui army's central tent.
However, Gao Shida also had some doubts. Although the Sui army camp was in chaos, there were not many real Sui army encounters.
But Gao Shida had no time to care about this. He quickly arrived at the main tent of the Sui army.
But there was no large-scale battle in front of the tent. He was just about to ask Liu Ya who took the lead, but Liu Ya, who had been following him, also disappeared.
Gao Shida was startled and felt something was wrong, so he prepared to turn around.
At this time, Xi Jing suddenly appeared from behind the tent and shouted loudly: "Gao Shida, since you are here, why leave in a hurry."
When Gao Shida saw Xi Jing, although he didn¡¯t recognize him, he couldn¡¯t help being frightened. He had fallen into a trap!
Gao Shida waved his flag and was about to order a breakout. At this moment, countless Sui troops armed with strong bows and crossbows suddenly shot out from the big tent behind Xi Jue, and started firing at Gao Shida.
For a time, the sky was filled with arrows, like a rainstorm of pear blossoms.
Gao Shida had no time to dodge, but countless arrows hit Gao Shida's body. Gao Shida, whose whole body was shot like a hedgehog, fell off his horse with a "bang".
At the end of his life, Gao Shida couldn't understand why Dou Jiande betrayed him.
Gao Shida's death was a signal. At this time, countless troops suddenly came out from all sides of the camp and attacked Gao Shida's bandits.
The Sui army had already set up an ambush and was waiting for the opponent to take the bait.
Gao Shida died in the chaos, and the three armies were leaderless and without command. Facing the murderous elites of the Sui army, they were in chaos and scattered in all directions. They only hated their parents for losing two legs.
Almost overnight, tens of thousands of Gao Shida's main forces were lost in the Sui army's camp. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
