Chi Luorong chased a Turkic tribe on the southern foot of the Yin Mountains, but it was just the tip of the iceberg of the entire Yan North border army's operations.

The Turkic heads thought this was just a small-scale restlessness of the Qi people, and they didn't care at first. Until this situation happened more and more frequently and more small tribes were eradicated, they felt a little bad.

They began to unite, intimidate, and join the remaining weak tribes around to join them, and jointly block the attacks of the Qi people. Both sides began to enter the battle. They didn't know that in the south, thousands of iron horses, walking on the weeds that turned yellow in autumn, had quietly crossed Huaihuang, Baidao, and headed straight to the south of the desert... The butcher's knife was placed on their necks!

During the march, Yang Shi, who was wearing light leather armor in Qi army, was frowning and was issuing orders to a cadre below: "This time, the troops were sent, with infantry armor as the main force and cavalry as the auxiliary. This general commanded the four prefectures in Yanbei and held more than 24,000 combat soldiers who could fight in field. Apart from the defensive fortress, less than 7,000 could be directly driven by our general. Then mobilized the Khitan tribes that were attached to it, and gathered a total of 10,000."

"In this way, the army divided into five groups in Huaihuang. Our troops were the main force. The central army led 5,000 troops, set up a formation, and rushed to the Turkic royal court, forcing the Turkic tribes to fight. The remaining four routes of men and horses were 2,000 infantry and cavalry, and immediately scattered and marched after obtaining food and grass supplies. You... can attack the Turkic tribes in turn, but each army cannot escape fifty miles from the middle road."

After Yang Shi said that, the generals under his command looked at each other, one of the Xianbei Hu generals looked embarrassed:

"The governor has a order? Naturally, we dare not disobey it? But the governor... The south of the desert is not as good as the Great Wall, and there is no road for the army to walk on? Although the horse is flat, it is extremely difficult to distinguish the direction. How dare we ask the governor? How can we divide the troops and horses to contact the governor at any time? Another thing is, what if our army loses contact with the army? Where can we obtain supplies?"

"If the supply is cut off? We can only go back on the spot and the entire army will be wiped out."

"You have just moved to the Central Plains for a few years, and have you forgotten the hardships of fishing and hunting?" Yang Jian pinched his eyelids and said lightly: "This year is a good year, with high grass and fat horses? The Turks didn't even want to go south to rob? It can be seen that the Turks do not lack food and drink now. When we break into the south of the desert, we naturally follow the customs, eat theirs, and drink theirs? This is called fighting to support war, do you understand?"

The face of the Xianbei Hu general was evident? He said with a embarrassed look:

"The general's ability is naturally not as good as that of the governor, and he could not have imagined that it is so far-reaching."

"No? You reminded me of one thing." Yang Jian stroked his sparse beard and thoughtfully: "Each division will leave the central army? Although it will be strictly restricted from being allowed to leave fifty miles away? But it is often unsure? Could it be that fool would not be able to get in touch with him as he beats and will not be able to contact him again... In this way, wouldn't we give people the chance to defeat one by one?"

"……no."

"In this way, each army selects a team of sergeants, and is responsible for contacting the Central Army. Contact the Central Army every two hours. In this way, I can dispatch it at any time. If I want to fight a big battle, I can take back all the troops and horses that have been dispersed, and I can't help but ask:

"Governor... I have something to ask, but I don't know whether to ask."

Yang Qi scolded: "If you ask, ask, don't ask if you don't ask, don't ask, don't hesitate!"

The man plucked up his courage and said, "The governor arranged a marching force in the past, and he was the most refreshing and quick. With his attacks, we only had to crush one by one. Why did this battle so wasteful and divided the troops and advanced, and we had contacted each other for two hours for the whole day. We were just going to fight the Turkic barbarians? As for the mobilization of troops, the governor had never been like this before."

"And...and..." He carefully looked at the governor's face, made his heart clear, and finally said: "And the governor divided his troops into this way, and delayed the speed of the march in vain. The troops were obviously separated from the main force and fought on their own, but they were still constrained and could not give up. This is a taboo in the art of war... The general was puzzled, please let the governor make it clear!"

Yang said with a dark face:

"What's wrong with this? Isn't Your Majesty's imperial edict clearly stated? Although our army is ahead, it is only a side army, and the real main force has to wait for Jinyang. As a side army, our task is not to annihilate the Turks, but to try to protect ourselves while giving the heaviest blow to the Turks who are blocking us and attracting their main force to come!"

"——Then aren't we becoming those entourages of the Six Towns Qiuba?"

"——That's right, why are Jinyang troops always picking up the cheaper ones? Could it be that our men of the North can't become the main force?"

The generals reacted and all looked resentful. Several of the generals from Hu chiefs were even more dissatisfied. Although they surrendered to the Great Qi, they had not yet moved inward for a few years, and the tribal system had not been demolished, and their plundering nature was not destroyed. They were so active in supporting the court, sending horses and children to the battlefield. In addition to military merit, there was another major event, which was to obtain more wealth.

If they came here just as Yang Jian said, and there was no chance of fighting, and they would not even find military achievements, and they would not even rob their wealth, then they would have made a big loss!

Thinking of this, everyone's faces were gloomy and depressed.

Yang Jian seemed to see through their ideas, and did not provoke them in person. He said lightly: "If they have the credit, they always have to pay some compensation for us. It's decided that every battle lasts only fifty miles. Every time they break, they burn their tents, capture their cattle, sheep, and livestock, kill all their clans and their families, and disperse them to the north. The court won six of the wealth, cattle, and sheep that robbed this time, and the remaining 40% of the troops were allocated according to the number of troops they sent."

As soon as this statement was spoken, everyone immediately stopped talking and no longer mentioned "unfairness".

Yang Jian struck while the iron was hot and immediately ordered: "In front of us is the old nest of Erfu Khan. We intercepted their western route and forced the main Turkic forces to come over to defile Ashina. Ashina Daluo shared the pressure. If he could, he would drag it down. Even if he could lose some combat power, it would be okay to drag them until Jinyang sent troops out of the frontier!"

After finishing his strategic intentions in one breath, Yang Yan waved his hand, and the generals present stood up, raising fists at the governor, and then left. Only Yang Yan was left, pondering at the map on the table without saying a word. Since there was no one around, his figure gradually became a little hunched, and the gray hair on his head looked particularly eye-catching under the glimmer of light.

The heroes who have lived a lifelong war will eventually get old one day.

The world's Ba Mansion, Jinyang, and green mountains are stretched. The peaks of Luliang Mountain are hidden in the hazy clouds and mist, which makes people unreal. Although this important town, which is regarded as the place where the Gao family's dragon rises, has been deliberately weakened by the Yecheng court in this dynasty, it is still the most important lifeline of the Northern Qi Dynasty and the most powerful military center of the Northern Qi Dynasty. No one dares to underestimate the weight of Jinyang in the Northern Qi Dynasty.

On this day, the south gate of Jinyang City was wide open, and teams of soldiers rushed out from the south gate on agile war horses. A strong young man in the lead wore a mighty red helmet and flew out like a meteor. Looking at the face under the helmet, it was King Ande, the governor of Jinyang. Following them, more infantrymen also rushed out from the south gate, but they did not chase the team behind, but lined up on both sides of the road and stood still.

King Ande had long received news: Your Majesty ordered the Crown Prince to supervise Jinyang.

As the highest military chief executive in Jinyang, if King Ande did not come forward to welcome the prince, someone in the court would probably put him in the hat of "great disrespect". Besides, putting aside the name of the monarch and ministers, the prince's commander of Jinyang would also be suppressed by his power. He must look like a subordinate, gather at that place, and accept the prince's inspection at the city gate.

They moved very quickly. After less than an hour of walking, they could see the river vaguely, and they saw a team coming towards them.

The other party was very alert. When he saw a cavalry team coming, he immediately formed a formation by the river and sent out several guards to ask: "Who are you and why are you here?!" Gao Yanzong looked at them as if they were facing a great enemy, and felt a little unhappy, but he bowed and said, "I am Gao Yanzong, how dare I ask the person sitting in the car is His Royal Highness the Prince?"

The guards looked at each other and did not dare to talk rashly.

King Ande had no choice but to take out the seal from his arms and throw it to them.

The guards looked at each other and still stopped there. One of them held the seal and threw a sentence: "Please wait for a moment." Then they pulled out their horses and turned around. It seemed that they were going to distinguish the authenticity from the two civil servants.

They discussed for a while, one of the scholars put on their official uniforms and hats, tidied up their sleeves to welcome King Ande. At this time, the carriage suddenly activated. The people in the carriage didn't know what they said to the imperial guards who were driving, and ignored the obstruction of the two masters and rushed straight to Gaoyan Sect. The subordinates around Gaoyan Sect were instinctive, and they pulled their blades and sheaths. Gaoyan Sect shouted:

“—Get down!”

After shouting, Gao Yanzong took a pure white foal and walked to the car, bowed and bowed:

"I welcome your highness, your highness Jin'an!"

He was waiting anxiously, a small figure came out of the car. Gao Heng stared at the pure white foal, his eyes shining. He couldn't wait to rush over when he saw the foal. "Uncle Wang." The prince withdrew his reluctant gaze, respectfully returned the salute, and then couldn't wait to ask: "Is this little horse for orphan?"

Gao Yanzong glanced at the white horse that was about to be given away, which was as tall as His Highness, which was quite suitable, so he couldn't help but smile and said, "It was the one I chose to give to His Highness!" The prince thanked him, and then got off the car happily amid the screams of his attendant and went to caress his horse. Gao Yanzong watched from time to time, and advised the prince how to cultivate a tacit understanding with the horse.

The atmosphere between uncle and nephew is harmonious.

Pei and Su, who rushed over, breathed a sigh of relief.
