Hejian County Leshou County!

As the army moves in, the whole country is at peace!

Thirty miles away in the western suburbs of the county, the Sui army's camp stretched out with tents and flags like the sea!

The camp where Yang Tong is located is located in the center of the camp, which is equivalent to the combat command headquarters. There are nearly ten tents in the camp, his commander's tent is in the middle, and some close guards live in other tents.

With this camp as the center, 10,000 Xiaoguo were divided into four points to surround the camp in a circular formation and set up tents. Anyone who wanted to enter the Chinese army must pass through their camps and be responsible for the safety of the Chinese army.

Next, the 20,000 Xiaoguo troops were divided into eight points and surrounded the four points inside to form a larger circular formation.

As for the 30,000 troops from the Eastern Capital, they were divided into eight points on the outside, slightly intersecting with the eight on the inside. Once there was an unexpected war, the 50,000 troops could respond in an orderly manner.

All the camps surrounded the Chinese army like stars and the moon, making the camps overlap and become more continuous.

The terrain in the outskirts of Wuqiang County is flat, with plains and wide swamps, and there is no danger to rely on. However, with such careful layout, the camps became several circular formations, with Yang Tong occupying the middle as the center of the formation, and other camps surrounding each other.

The heart of the formation rotates.

Advance to attack, retreat to defend

Without occupying a favorable location, the entire camp was put into operation. This fact is really surprising.

Yang Tong, of course, does not have this ability.

This handiwork was actually done by Yang Yichen of Qingtian Baiyuzhu in the Sui Dynasty.

Yang Yichen was ordered by him to come to help fight this battle.

This world-famous general is tall, burly, and handsome. Although he is over fifty years old, he is still as majestic as he was in his prime.

Yang Yichen's real surname was Wei Chi, and he was a member of Yuchi Zou's tribe who opposed the Yang family's succession to the Zhou Dynasty. However, Yang Yichen's father, Yu Chichong, was a supporter of Yang Jian. Finally, when Beidi invaded, he killed the enemy with violence and sacrificed his life for justice. His body was wrapped in horse leather.

Yang Yichen was still young at that time, and Yang Jian raised him in the palace. He also gave him the surname Yang and listed him in the family tree. He was Yang Guang's younger brother. The two grew up together. Yang Yichen was cautious and loyal, and Yang Guang still trusted him very much.

.

After Yang Guang came to the throne, King Yang Liang of the Han Dynasty rebelled. Yang Yichen led 20,000 people to rescue Daizhou, and defeated the many with a small number, and defeated Yang Liang's general Qiao Zhongkui's army. After the war, he was rewarded for his merits, and Yang Yichen was named a general.

Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty also rewarded "two thousand pieces of objects, five hundred pieces of miscellaneous colors, ten female prostitutes, and twenty good horses." After that, Yang Yichen also participated in the battle of Tuyuhun and the battle of Goguryeo. Although the Sui Dynasty was defeated in the battle of Goguryeo,

But Yang Yichen performed very well, "seven victories in one day".

In the past few years, uprisings have broken out in various places. Sun Xuanya and Gao Shida from Bohai Province in Hebei Province, and Zhang Jincheng from Qinghe Province all gathered together to become bandits, each with a force of 100,000. In order to bring disaster to Hebei Province, they attacked the city and conquered the land.

In a desperate situation, the three finally joined forces and almost captured Liyang Granary, which contained more than 20 million dans of grain.

Yang Guang sent Duan Da to attack, but Duan Da failed to live up to his expectations and suffered repeated defeats.

At the critical moment, Yang Shanhui, the magistrate of Duxian County, launched a sneak attack with thousands of powerful troops, thus defeating the three thieves' coalition. Yang Shanhui was promoted to the imperial court for his meritorious service and became the official of Qinghe County. After that, he and Pingyuan guard Yang Yuanhong's tens of thousands of cavalry attacked.

In the thief's base camp, all the officers and soldiers were defeated, and the thief army was defeated again.

At the same time, Yang Guang asked Yang Yichen to lead troops into Hebei Province for suppression. After Yang Yichen arrived, he won many battles and finally defeated Gao Shida last year and beheaded Zhang Jincheng. He also collected the surrendered troops, entered Douzigang, and captured Ge Qian and other thieves alive.

.

Gao Shida led hundreds of people to flee to Zhangnan County, Qinghe. Linqing bandit leader Wang An led thousands of people to join him. Yang Shanhui chose the opportunity to attack, captured and killed the two thieves, and sent their heads to Jiangdu where Yang Guang was located.

In the palace, Yang Guang awarded Yang Shanhui the post of Qinghetong Guard! And Yang Yichen was awarded the post of Guanglu Doctor for his military merits.

As a result, the uprising in Hebei Province was effectively contained. Currently, the only major rebellion left is Dou Jiande, who is entrenched in Leshou County.

Dou Jiande was originally a subordinate of Gao Shida. After Gao Shida died in the battle, he led thousands of people to conquer Raoyang County, and his military strength suddenly grew to 30,000.

In the first month of this year, Dou Jiande set up an altar and held a ceremony at the junction of Hejian and Leshou counties, calling himself the King of Changle. Zhuojun stayed behind, and General Xue Shixiong of Youyi Guard led 30,000 troops to attack Dou Jiande and camped at Qili Well in Hejian City.

Dou Jiande selected thousands of elite soldiers to ambush in the river swamps. All the defenders in various towns broke camp and pretended to escape.

, more than 10,000 people were killed or injured. Dou Jiande's army was so powerful that he took the opportunity to recruit all the grassroots bandits in the territory and gathered 200,000 people in Leshou, preparing to fight Yang Tong to the death.

Inside the Chinese army’s tent!

Yang Tong, Yang Yichen, Pei Renji, Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin, Pei Xingyan, Niu Jinda, Qinghetong guard Yang Shanhui, Pingyuan guard Yang Yuanhong were all present. In addition, there were also folk righteous people Wei Zheng from Hengyang, Boling, and Su Lie from Wuyi, Xindu.

These two people were talents discovered by Yang Yichen, not to mention the famous Wei Zheng.

And Su Lie is Su Dingfang.

He is the son of the righteous Su Yong. His father led the county soldiers to defeat the traitors and died heroically. Su Lie was brave and courageous. At the age of fifteen, he inherited his late father's legacy and took the lead in many battles. First in the county

Zhang Jinsheng, the leader of the Qinghe rebels in Nanda, and then defeated Yang Gongqing, the leader of the Handan rebels in the west of the county! Because of his merits, Yang Yichen kept him by his side and used him.

The emergence of these two people was definitely another unexpected surprise for Yang Tong.

"Your Majesty, please tell us about the characteristics of the gangsters in Hebei Province." Yang Tong said to Yang Yichen.

"Your Highness! Mr. Yang Shanhui has dealt with bandits the most and for the longest time. He is most familiar with the habits of bandits in Hebei Province." Yang Yichen recommended Yang Shanhui!

Yang Shanhui is about forty years old, with bright eyes, a slender face, and a long beard under his chin. He looks quite elegant, but judging from his long and strong hands, he has good martial arts skills! No wonder he likes to act like a civil servant at every turn.

Leading the county troops to charge into battle.

Yang Shanhui stood up and said to everyone: "Since the seventh year of Daye, there have been countless bandits in Hebei Province. There are more than 100,000 bandits, including Liu Badao, Sun Anzu, Wang Deren, Wang An, Du Yanbing, Wang Run, Hao Xiaode, Li Deyi, Ge Qian,

Lu Mingyue, Yang Zhongxu, Wang Xuba, Wei Daoer, Zhen Zhaier, Sun Xuanya, Gao Shida, Zhang Jincheng, Zhao Wanhai, Wang Ziying, Dou Jiande... Except for Dou Jiande's group, Hao Xiaode defected to Wagang, and Sun Xuanya fled to Henan.

The end of the road was unknown, and Wei Daoer fled to the east road of the river! The rest were wiped out by the imperial court."

"The three people who have the greatest and longest-lasting influence in Hebei Province are Zhang Jincheng, Gao Shida, and Dou Jiande. The popular saying is that Dou Jiande is lenient, Gao Shida is greedy, and Zhang Jincheng is cruel."

"Zhang Jin claimed that he rebelled in the seventh year of Daye and died at the hands of a minor official last year. In the past six years, this thief has killed, robbed, massacred and looted cities, and committed numerous atrocities! The six counties of Qinghe, Wu'an, Xiangguo, Zhaojun, and Xindu were completely destroyed by him

He destroyed the Qinghe Cui family, Boling Cui family, Zhaojun Li family and other famous families in the five surnames and seven sects one by one. Over the years, I don’t know how many families have been ruined by him."

"Gao Shida also rebelled in the same year. He was from Xinduquan County. His father was the abandoned son of the Bohai Gao family. He mainly operated in the three counties of Pingyuan, Bohai and Hejian. He also reduced these three counties to ruins. The Bohai Gao family was destroyed.

When he took his bloody revenge, only a limited number of people fled elsewhere, and almost wanted to exterminate the entire clan. He died at the hands of the servant last year, and the rest of his clan returned to Dou Jiande."

Yang Tong nodded slightly. He felt that he should build a tomb for Zhang Jinchen and Gao Shida, and thank them for killing the big family and powerful family in Hebei Province for him!

Yang Shanhui continued: "As for Dou Jiande, according to what the grassroots say, he is loyal to wealth, has no airs, and talks about benevolence and righteousness. When the enemy and we confront each other, he always leads the men who dare to die at the forefront, and everyone in his unit is convinced. With Zhang

The cruelty of Jin Cheng, Gao Shida, Lu Mingyue and others is different. He never massacres the city. He only kills local bullies and corrupt officials. He also helps poor people from time to time! I think that if this person develops, he will be better than Zhang Jinchen.

Gao Shida, Lu Mingyue is scary."

"Thank you for reminding me! Please continue." Yang Tong smiled.

No one among the people sitting here knows Dou Jiande's power better than him. He is the future famous King of Hebei, King Xia! This guy is now in a prosperous period. If he is not eliminated, there will be no peace in the future!

Yang Shanhui continued: "Dou Jiande is very cunning. He especially likes sneak attacks at night and is good at fire attacks!"

Yang Yichen said: "Mr. Yang is right. When Guo Xuan, the governor of Zhuojun, attacked Gao Shida last year, Dou Jiande pretended to have a falling out with Gao Shida. Gao Shida pulled out an innocent woman and killed him in front of Master Guo, saying that she was

Dou Jiande's wife! Lord Guo believed it and accepted Dou Jiande's surrender, but was eventually killed by Gao Shida and Dou Jiande. When Xue Shixiong, who was left behind in Zhuo County, led an army of 30,000 to suppress the rebellion, Dou Jiande showed weakness to the enemy, causing Xue Shixiong to underestimate the enemy.

Careless, he was killed by Dou Jiande again and suffered heavy losses. Xue Shixiong fought all his life without any defeat. He was old and had no guarantee at the end of his life. After escaping back to Zhuojun, he was ashamed, worried, angry and seriously ill in bed! Therefore, for a cunning man like Dou Jiande, do not hesitate to do anything.

Don’t be careless.”

"The biggest problem of my Sui general is that he underestimates the enemy. They look down on the rebel army! The sad thing is that after learning the lesson, he has not long remembered it!" Yang Tong said angrily: "How can Xue Shixiong, a colleague, not know what Guo Xuan is like?

Did he die? He actually made the same mistake. It doesn't matter if he died, he also killed 30,000 elites. "One general is incompetent and kills the entire army" is talking about Xue Shixiong. From now on, whoever dares to underestimate the enemy should get out of the military camp.

So as not to harm the soldiers. Do you understand?"

"I understand!" Everyone responded solemnly.

Speaking of Xue Shixiong, Yang Tong thought of his five awesome sons: Xue Wanshu, Xue Wanshu, Xue Wanjun, Xue Wanche, and Xue Wanbei. Each of these five people is an outstanding person. When they arrive in Zhuo County, they must be packed away.

Yang Tong lost his temper, and then said: "The premise of Dou Jiande's scheming is to cherish the soldiers, because he knows that his soldiers are no match for the regular army, so he makes dangerous moves and uses surprise troops to win;"

"This battle is his first battle as king. It is a matter of life and death for the entire army. It is of great significance! He can only win but not lose, so he can only repeat his old tricks; his soldiers are used to fighting beside him. If he doesn't come,

, the morale of the army has been frustrated! Dou Jiande himself must be indispensable! And I am 60% sure that tonight..."

Looking at Yang Tong with a relaxed expression, Yang Yichen asked curiously: "Why is His Highness so convinced?"

"Haha! Dou Jiande has to come! He can't afford it." Yang Tong laughed.
Chapter completed!
