Sui and Tang Dynasties: My Wife is the Eldest Grandson Wugou

Although this battle has never happened before, there are many similar wars in history.

The climate in West Turks is harsh and the environment is harsh. People from the Central Plains will suffer from very severe altitude sickness within two days after arriving in West Turks.

Not to mention going to the Western Turks, even in the northwest region, there are many people who cannot adapt to the climate there.

Not to mention that it is still cold winter and spring has not yet begun. If the soldiers in the plain area are allowed to advance to the northwest, or even invade the territory of Western Turks, the fate can be imagined with their toes.

"If I were the Son of Heaven, I would not mess myself up. The first step is to take back the large area west of Xiping County and Water River County. The most important thing is to save hundreds of thousands of Sui people and [-] soldiers of the Sui Dynasty."

Ye Fan replied calmly.

"However, how can we take it back? If we fight against the Western Turks, how much will we win?"

Yang Guang asked eagerly again.

Seeing Lao Yang in such a hurry, Ye Fan also sighed secretly.

This old Yang is so concerned about the victory of the war, it seems that he has put all his wealth on growing food.

He was worried about his own interests. After all, he invested too much and planted too much food.

If there is a war, he will definitely be exploited.

Thinking of this, Ye Fan sighed deeply: "How to take it back depends on how the emperor makes decisions and coordinates the army. The weather in the West Turkic and Northwestern regions is harsh. The emperor must be very aware of this natural situation. If the war wants to If you want to win, the most important thing is to rely on people."

"I just heard that the Western Turkic army has taken control of Xiping County and Water River County, two very important strategic fortresses."

"But Lao Yang, think about it, Western Turks have such a big appetite to eat these two heavily guarded counties?"

"what do you mean?"

Yang Guang narrowed his eyes immediately and asked curiously.

"Why was it so good before, and now suddenly the war is in a hurry?"

Ye Fan sighed: "If the Western Turks want to enter the territory of the Great Sui Dynasty and invade Xiping County and Piaohe County, they need to march for at least ten days. For such a long distance, they pass by all the counties along the way. Will there be no news from all the counties? "

Chapter 44 Shopkeeper, are you going to join the army?

"They must have gotten wind of it, but one by one defended the city and did not come forward to fight, and the Western Turkic army went straight to the target Xiping County and Watering County. Isn't this situation clear at a glance?"

"There must be an inner ghost! The two prefects of Xiping County and Piaohe County must have led the rebellion. As for whether Xiping County and the counties west of Piaohe County have rebelled, that is unknown."

"Western Turks are guarding Xiping County and Piaohe County. The roads along the way must be full of scouts. The West Turks want to cut off the connection between the Great Sui Dynasty and the Northwest, so as to nibble away at the army and cities in the Northwest."

"So there is no way for the emperor to know whether there are any traitors among them."

After hearing Ye Fan's words, Yang Guang and Lai Hu'er were shocked instantly.

A word to wake up the dreamer!

Why didn't they think of it before?

If this is the case, then if the emperor rashly sends troops now, wouldn't he be throwing himself into a trap?

At that time, two prefects of the prefectures colluded with the Western Turks, and they lured the soldiers of the Sui Dynasty into the city before besieging and killing them. This kind of thing has never happened in history.

"In any case, if the Western Turks want to control Xiping County and Piaohe County, they must send heavy troops. In addition, they think that the bad weather in the West Turkic area, so the defense of the Sanmi Mountain in the north of the royal court must be weak."

"If you can send a large army to bypass Xiping County and Piaohe County, pass through the territory of East Turkic, enter Western Turkic in Yiwu County, and directly attack the Western Turkic royal court, then Western Turkic will naturally have to kneel down and cry. grandfather."

"Wonderful!"

After listening to Ye Fan's words, Yang Guang's eyes lit up.

But Lai Huer at the side looked heavy, shook his head and sighed: "Although this strategy is very clever, its degree of danger is directly proportional to its benefits. , They mistakenly thought that the Great Sui had invaded, and when the time came to garrison the northern border on a large scale, or even directly invaded, the northern border would be in a hurry."

"Even if you put aside these things and send a large army directly to the Western Turkic Court, this army must be the best of the best. Entering the Western Turkic, the road is dangerous, and there are hundreds of miles of desert, can it go smoothly? Western Turks are all unknowns..."

When Hu'er came, Yang Guang's face darkened again.

"There are definitely dangers. If you don't fight hard, you can only confront the Western Turks head-on. The Western Turks are full of ambitions and will definitely not retreat easily. They have settled for the land in the northwest. It took a long time. The region will be slowly eaten away by the Western Turks, and don’t forget that the Northwest Region and the Western Turks have some inseparable connections..."

Ye Fan sighed, and shrugged his shoulders helplessly: "If these people are facing the Western Turks, so what if they win the Western Turks? The people's hearts have been lost, what will the emperor use to guard the northwest region?"

"This……"

Ye Fan's words, let Yang Guanghe come to protect the child, completely at a loss as to what to say.

"This method is currently the only one that can perfectly solve the problem. Now it's up to the emperor to make a decision..."

Speaking of this, Ye Fan shook his head: "The heated discussion we have here is useless, let's wait for the result. Lao Yang, if you want to minimize the loss, it is best to provide food and grass support for the Sui army. We can earn less, as long as Da Sui can defeat the Western Turks as soon as possible, this is in our best interest."

"What you said makes sense, but I'm really not reconciled! I put all my wealth in here. If it's just in vain, it will be more painful than killing me."

Speaking of this, Yang Guang immediately looked at Ye Fan expectantly: "Ye Fan, you know so well, why don't I recommend you through my relationship, and let you join the army and participate in the war, so that you can make meritorious deeds , and because of your participation, the probability of winning this battle will be higher."

"I'm going, you want to kill me?"

Ye Fan curled his lips: "Such a dangerous war, isn't it more dangerous for me to join the army?"

Although he said he was afraid of death as an excuse, in fact Ye Fan was very worried about the unreliable Yang Guang.

Yang Guang is a man of great ambition and talent, so it would be too long to work for him.

"Brother Ye, I have used all my wealth to grow food. Our interests are all involved. If the war is defeated and the Western Turks invade, all our hard work will be in vain!"

"Are you really willing to give up such a big profit like this?"
