Chapter 38: The Key Thief

Yang Yuanqing rushed to Shanggu County after receiving the Flying Eagle Express from Qin Qiong. According to his plan, he should launch the campaign against Youzhou in mid-February. However, he did not expect that Luo Yi actually took the initiative to provoke and launched the offensive first.

In the Chinese army's tent, Yang Yuanqing stood in front of the sand table, listening quietly to Xie Yingdeng's report. Next to him, Qin Qiong looked a little uneasy, even a little worried. Laishui County was occupied by the Youzhou Army, and Laishui, which could have been used as a defensive line, also changed.

It became an inland river for the Youzhou army. To a certain extent, it was his unreasonable defense that caused the Sui army to withdraw from the west of Laishui. He should have united his troops in one place instead of setting up two large camps.

The state concentrated its troops and defeated them one by one.

Although Xie Yingdeng killed Gao Kaidao's 20,000 troops with a beautiful counterattack, this could not conceal his passivity in ordering the withdrawal.

Yang Yuanqing did not pay attention to why Qin Qiong ordered the withdrawal. He was more concerned about the causes and consequences of Xie Yingdeng's ambush of Gao Kaidao's army. As a commander in charge of the overall situation, he did not care much about the gains and losses of one city and one region. He was more concerned about Luo Yi's Youzhou army and Gao's army.

To clear the way for conflicts between the Liaodong Army.

From the ambush battle described by Xie Yingdeng, Yang Yuanqing also sensitively captured the absence of the Youzhou Army in this ambush battle. He knew Luo Yi very well, was good at fighting, and had rich experience. As a general with a little brain, he would

Realizing that the Sui army might have an ambush, Luo Yi was obviously aware of this, so he did not send troops to follow.

But Luo Yi knew there was danger, so why didn't he stop Gao Wentong from leading his troops to pursue westward? Is it because he couldn't stop it, or was he deliberately letting himself go?

"Manager, who cares who lives and who dies!"

Cheng Yaojin couldn't help shouting at the side: "Luo Yi only has 30,000 people now, and we have an army of 50,000. Wouldn't it be solved if we just go over and kill Luo Yi?"

His voice was loud and nasal, and the echoes buzzed in the big tent. Qin Qiong saw that he had interrupted and couldn't help but glared at him. Cheng Yaojin was so frightened that he didn't dare to say anything anymore. He was more afraid of Qin Qiong.

I have been afraid of him since the early days of Daye, and I have been afraid of him until now.

Yang Yuanqing was interrupted by Cheng Yaojin's broken voice. He glanced at everyone and saw Wang Junkuo thoughtfully on the side, so he asked him: "What does General Wang think of this?"

Since Wang Junkuo surrendered to Yang Yuanqing in Hanoi, he has been very low-key and doesn't speak much. But not speaking does not mean that he has no brains. He is thinking most of the time. When the manager asked himself, Wang Junkuo immediately bowed and replied: "Report to the manager,

I thought that Luo and Gao were not from the same path. Luo Yi was from a famous family, a general of the Sui Dynasty, and was named the King of Peking by the Tang Dynasty, while Gao Kaidao was just a rebel bandit from Douzigang.

I'm not from the same place. I've heard that Gao Wentong is cruel, stupid, and has a bad temper. Moreover, his military discipline is very poor. He will never be honest in Luo Yi's territory. They stayed together for a winter, how could there be no conflicts?

I believe that there must be a deep conflict between them, which led to the inconsistent actions of the two armies."

Yang Yuanqing nodded, "General Wang said it very well, and it coincides with my idea. Gao Kaidao has an army of 100,000, and Luo Yi also has 70,000 elite soldiers. The two armies are fighting together, and our strength cannot be underestimated. We can't do it because of this

If General Xie's ambush is successful, we can underestimate the enemy. We don't have to rush to fight with the opponent. The key is to destroy the cooperation between Luo Yi and Gao Kaidao. This time Gao Wentong's army was annihilated. Gao Wentong will not admit that he underestimated the enemy. He

They will only shift the responsibility to Luo Yi, and we think there will inevitably be conflicts between them, let us wait and see."



All the generals retreated, and only Yang Yuanqing and Qin Qiong were in the tent. Yang Yuanqing asked Qin Qiong, "Why did Shu Bao think of withdrawing the army and abandoning Laishui County?"

Qin Qiong sighed, "I didn't expect that they would join forces to attack together, and I didn't expect that Luo Yi would launch an early attack. I was worried that General Xie and General Wang were stationed in two battalions and would be defeated by Luo Yi's concentrated superior force, so I decided to

Order them to withdraw to Yi County, and there are also some tactical considerations."

"What tactical considerations?"

"Mainly heavy armored cavalry. The terrain in Laishui County is relatively flat. I was worried that Luo Yi would use heavy armored cavalry to attack the camp, which would be dangerous, so I urgently ordered them to withdraw westward. The terrain in Yixian County is uneven, and the heavy armored cavalry's

If the advantage cannot be used, and the front is lengthened, the enemy's logistics supply line will also be lengthened. In Shanggu County with complex terrain, it is easy to create ambush opportunities."

Yang Yuanqing thought for a long time and said: "I can't say that you did something wrong in this matter. You should retreat when necessary, but you do have problems with the deployment of troops. You should not station the two armies separately. In addition, you regard the heavy armored cavalry as too important.

It’s too serious. It’s not difficult to deal with them. Just like we have heavy armored infantry, the weakness of heavy armored infantry is also the weakness of heavy armored cavalry.”

Qin Qiong understood what the manager meant, but he was still dissatisfied with his abandonment of Laishui County. He quickly stood up and said with some panic: "I made a mistake in deploying troops, which led to the loss of Laishui County. I am willing to be punished."

Yang Yuanqing couldn't help but burst into laughter. He stood up and patted Qin Qiong on the shoulder, pushed him down and then smiled apologetically: "It's my fault. I'm used to talking to those old officials in the Taiyuan court. Just now

I didn't change my mind when I arrived in Shanggu County. In fact, I was hinting to you to voluntarily resign as the commander-in-chief. I will be the commander-in-chief in this war. But I forgot that you don't understand these official euphemisms. Okay! I will

To put it bluntly, withdrawing troops from Laishui is not a big problem. It should be said that it is correct. However, this battle is of great importance and we cannot afford to lose. Therefore, I will be the commander-in-chief and you will be my deputy. What I want to say is that simple.

!”

Yang Yuanqing's frankness touched Qin Qiong's heart. He also smiled and said: "You are ignorant because of your humble position. You didn't understand what the general manager meant. To be the deputy general of the general manager is a humble honor. You can't ask for it. I have no complaints at all."

Yang Yuanqing nodded, "It's best if you think so. Go find Wang Junkuo and Xie Yingdeng, and let's discuss the next battle plan together."



"Damn it, they are sub-generals, and I am also a sub-general. They can drink tea and discuss military affairs in the Chinese army's tent, but I was rushed to patrol the mountains. Is there any justice?"

Cheng Yaojin led 300 cavalrymen to patrol along the official road in the northeast of Yixian County. Qin Qiong hated him for interfering in the Chinese army's tent, so she drove him out to patrol.

In fact, Cheng Yaojin didn't want to discuss military affairs in the big tent. That kind of discussion made him sleepy, but he felt that it was shameless that Wang Junkuo and Xie Yingdeng could enter the tent, but he was kicked out as a dignified general to patrol the mountains.

Taibao.

It's just a patrol. If he is assigned to patrol in Yi County, maybe he can accept it. He can hug the brothel girl and drink a few glasses of wine. That's not bad. But why send him to patrol in the wilderness? What's the point of arresting him?

Youzhou scout, this made Cheng Yaojin full of resentment.

"I quit! If I surrender to the Youzhou Army, at least I can become King of Yuyang, haha! Let's see how Qin Shubao explains to the manager?"

Cheng Yaojin cursed all the way, regardless of whether the soldiers behind him heard him or not. The soldiers understood him and no one took his words to heart. Many soldiers covered their mouths and laughed secretly.

There was a captain in the middle who was also a well-rounded man. He realized that this was an opportunity to please Cheng Yaojin. He stepped forward, looked around, secretly took out a small bottle from his arms and handed it over, nodded and said: "General."

,Give!"

"What is this?" Cheng Yaojin glanced at the vial and asked.

"General, this is the flood season..."

"Wine!" Cheng Yaojin's eyes lit up. He was addicted to alcohol. However, Qin Qiong was very strict in running the army and strictly prohibited drinking in the army. He was suffocated over the winter. He took the bottle, uncorked it and smelled it, and his eyes suddenly showed intoxication.

As expected, it was wine. He raised his head and drank it in two sips. He smacked his lips and suddenly realized that this was wine for healing wounds. He looked at the captain in confusion and said, "You kid is having sex with a female guard."

Already?"

"How can you be so courageous in a humble position? You will be beheaded. This is the wine my brother gave me. He is a scout."

Cheng Yaojin slapped his thigh hard, "I'm so damn stupid, I didn't think about scouts."

According to the rules of the Fengzhou Army, scouts can bring a pot of wine with them when they leave the camp. However, Cheng Yaojin did not expect that Qin Qiong asked him last time if he would like to take care of the scouts. He thought the scouts were too tired, so he did not agree, but forgot

He asked the scouts to bring wine, which made him feel ashamed.

He sighed heavily and shook the bottle again. The wine was gone. "The wine is good, but it's just too little." Cheng Yaojin said with some regret.

"Jiang Ping, there is actually a way to drink. Don't go to the city."

Cheng Yaojin was overjoyed, "Tell me, where is the wine?"

"I know that there is a nearby village with a tavern. It's just mountain fruit wine. I wonder if the general is used to drinking it?"

Cheng Yaojin was addicted to alcohol by the small pot of wine. He didn't care what kind of wine it was, as long as he had wine. He pinched the back of the captain's neck and said urgently: "Where is the tavern? Take me there quickly!"



Cheng Yaojin led the team to the west for more than ten miles, then turned onto a small road. After walking for about two or three miles, he saw a small village not far away. A wine flag with a yellow background and black edges was held in front of a house at the entrance of the village.

, Cheng Yaojin was overjoyed, and turned back to the soldiers: "If you want to drink, follow me. If you don't want to, just rest on the spot."

After a pause, he added: "Pay for it yourself, I won't treat you!"

The Sui army had strict military discipline. Drinking was not allowed when performing tasks. Anyone who disobeyed the order was severely beaten with fifty army sticks. Three hundred soldiers did not dare to go and rested in the woods. Only three or four good drinkers followed Cheng Yaojin.

.

Cheng Yaojin walked to the entrance of the village. Suddenly, there was a burst of barking and scolding from the village. A thin man ran out of the village holding a few chickens, followed by more than a dozen villagers holding hoes and sticks.

A group of local dogs were running in front of them. The dogs were barking and the villagers were yelling and cursing all the way.

The chicken thief turned around and ran, but did not see several Sui troops coming in front. He suddenly found someone blocking the road in front of him. When he looked up, he saw it was Sui troops. He was so frightened that he turned around and ran into the woods. Cheng Yaojin

With quick hands and quick eyes, he grabbed him with one lunge, threw him to the ground, and stepped on his back.

"Beat him to death, beat this chicken thief to death!" The villagers surrounded him and were so angry that they wanted to beat him to death. More than a dozen dogs barked fiercely at Cheng Yaojin.

"Please save my life, Lord Jun. I have important information for you!"

Tears - "Your Majesty, why do you want to be a duck? 555~~~" The chicken thief turned around and ran, but did not see several Sui troops coming in front. He suddenly found someone blocking the road in front of him. When he looked up, he saw it was the Sui army.

The army was so frightened that he turned around and ran into the woods. Cheng Yaojin had quick hands and quick eyes. He grabbed him with one arrow and threw him to the ground. He stepped on his back.

The chicken thief came to pick up another girl. The chicken thief turned around and ran, but he didn't see several Sui soldiers coming in front. He suddenly found someone blocking the road in front of him. When he looked up, he saw it was the Sui army. He was so frightened that he turned towards the woods.

Luo Huining said: "She has recently become obsessed with painting and embroidery. It's up to her to do whatever she likes."

Zhang Yang smiled and said: "People have to have something to rely on."

Luo Huining sighed: "My children are really troublesome. I am getting older day by day and I can no longer control them."

Zhang Yang smiled and said: "Godmother, you are still young. When we two go out on the street, others will definitely treat us as siblings."

Luo Huining said with a smile: "You kid, you just know how to talk nonsense. You are getting old when you are old." The chicken thief turned around and ran, but did not see several Sui soldiers coming in front. He suddenly found someone blocking the road in front of him. When he looked up, he saw
