Chapter 486
But she didn't have tears, her tears had already dried up. Yang Guang asked her to relax her mind. Yang Guang said to see what happened in the world in 30 years, how many people died, how many countries, tribes, and how many families were destroyed. Sometimes people are the smallest animals in the world. Only by relaxing their hearts can they live a more at ease.
She simply jumped off the horse because the injury Black Pearl suffered in Tongguan was not completely healed, and it was less than a month, so Du Meiyue usually took great care of Black Pearl.
She gently patted Black Pearl on the head, "It's good to be a horse like you. If you meet a master like Yang Guang, your life will be a legend."
Yang Guang grinned from a distance when he looked at her slightly thin back from afar. Du Meiyue began to learn to think deeply. This is not a bad thing, this is a good thing.
It was very late, and the sky was full of stars. Suddenly, a few fast horses were running in front of him. It was no one else but Luo Shixin's exploring horses. He rushed into the camp and came to the tent.
"Report to the Major General, the Turkic Teeth Tent is gathering 300,000 troops. It is planned to go south in the 7th day. When we get this news, General Luo asked us to come back and deliver the letter immediately."
Yang Guang's face was very calm and he raised his hand, "Well, I understand, you have worked hard all the way, go and eat, and you don't have to leave. Stay here, I will soon chase Luo Shixin."
As she went on, Yang Su's face was excited and worried, but when she saw Yang Guang's expression that seemed to be strolling in the garden, she couldn't help but feel that she was too scheming. Could she be worse than a 17-year-old boy?
So he immediately calmed down, "The Turks will revenge, and they have not suffered such a big loss for a long time. Of course, they have to organize a crazy counterattack immediately. It seems that our opportunity has come. They are preparing to go south to counterattack and have no chance or energy to defend their borders. This is a great opportunity."
Yang Guang looked up and smiled at him, "You mean we should seize the opportunity and immediately send troops to take the initiative, but the military orders of Chang'an City have not arrived yet, so we have to wait."
Instead, Yang Guang was not anxious. Yang Su was anxious because they had one day of initiative in the Turkic territory. But Yang Guang was really not anxious. After calming down, Yang Su continued to ask, "There is no outsider when the door is closed. What the major general thinks and plans in his heart can be told to the last general."
Yang Guang nodded and stood up slowly. He didn't even leave his butt and even a chair before. "Well, then you calmly think about what the military orders from Chang'an City look like."
Yang Su hesitated a little. This is not a good topic, especially in the current situation. However, since Yang Guang asked him, he had to answer and answer well, so he did not respond immediately. Instead, he walked several laps on the spot before speaking, "First of all, the Emperor and the Sui Guild rewarded your performance in the past month. If you don't say anything about wealth and treasure, you will definitely give you a real power, because you have a golden token on your body, so it is very likely to emphasize that you can control the military of the northern border. This is the best result. However, I probably wouldn't agree to the Turks. The Sui Duke must defend steadily, because the Duke of Sui has never fought a war that is unsure. You must be prepared in advance and one blow will win, otherwise you would rather stick to it, because the Duke of Sui has always said that defending is victory. As long as the mentality is right, the attack that can't be defeated for a long time is much more anxious than the defender. It is the best strategy to find opportunities to defeat the enemy in chaos."
"In addition, Mrs. Dugu has always favored the major general as a treasure, so naturally she will not let you take risks in person. Leading your own troops into the Turkic territory is like a sheep entering the mouth of a tiger and killing for a lifetime. Therefore, the order should be to grant positions and strengthen the city walls to prepare for the Turkic counterattack, and she will even consider adding more than 50,000 troops to you..."
Yang Guang nodded after hearing this, but the amplitude was not large. He was also thinking and pondering. Indeed, Yang Su and Yang Jian had a lot of battles, and knew his character and military use, so he did not oppose what Yang Su said, and asked, "It is true that most people in the imperial court would advocate defending, but can a small Yingzhou city and 120,000 troops be able to defend the impact of the Turkish 300,000 troops? It is obvious that Yingzhou cannot resist the attack of more than 100,000 people at all. Not to mention 300,000 people, there is no open land where the opponent is 50,000, and we are 50,000, and there is no open land where the enemy is 50,000, and there are mountains everywhere. The Turks know Yingzhou very well. They can attack while bypassing Yingzhou from the small path on the mountain to give Yingzhou an internal and external attack. What should we do then?"
"That's why I chose the location of the last ambush in the mountains of the Turkic territory. No matter what war, there is a very effective principle, that is, the farther away from your own border, the better. Of course, this is relative, because the attacking party has already gained a considerable advantage, and the attacked party will definitely save itself. No country has captured the borders of the enemy and sent people to attack the other party's territory."
"I have actually been thinking about the balance between offense and defense. The reason why I firmly chose offense this time is actually to defend with the greatest effect. Only when our 120,000 people attack and attack the Turkic territory can we ensure that our own territory is not violated."
Yang Su had nothing to say, because he had agreed with Yang Guang's adventure in his heart. Now the only thing he could do was wait and wait for the order to be issued.
"What if the court did not allow the attack as expected by the last general, would the major general really disobey the holy order and the military order?"
"No, I will not disobey military orders. The duty of a soldier is to obey the orders. If you are not allowed to accept foreign military orders, what you said is that the general can only make decisions on the specific battle tactics. Regarding whether to attack and provoke a greater war, I must of course obey the orders of the court and my father. However, I hope that the orders can leave me a way out. It is best to directly mention the control of the northern border and adjust it according to the war."
Yang Guang held the back of the chair with both hands and looked at the dark night outside the tent. He asked someone to open the curtain. He seemed to be waiting for the arrival of orders every moment. He was wearing armor and seemed to be ready to send troops at any time.
"General Yang, immediately order the existing food and grass to be allocated overnight to 40,000 people. According to your proposal, each soldier of 5,000 people will carry 7-day dry food with him. The rest will be sent to 800 people to transport food and grass. If the order is passed down, if I have a little autonomy, then these 40,000 people will set off immediately. Suddenly, he said that the Turks were ready to attack after 7 days. But in order to prevent the night long dreams, we should take the initiative first. Otherwise, if the Turkic soldiers left the tent and marched south in a mighty manner, then we would not have time to do it."
Yang Sude Ling went to do it immediately. In fact, he had ordered the food and grass to be divided into 8 parts before, which was exactly 40,000 people. The remaining 30,000 people would wait for support from Gao Shaoyi, Yingzhou City, tomorrow dawn.
