    Although the wind in August is still a bit hot, overall it is much better than in July.  Du Qi's army has been resting in Jiuquan now.  On the one hand, they recruited soldiers to restore the army's combat effectiveness; on the other hand, they arranged for people to spread the news of Li Shimin's defeat in the Tang Dynasty, which made the territory of the Tang Dynasty even more chaotic.

    The recruitment of army soldiers went extremely smoothly.

    In Xia Guo, soldiers are highly respected.

    Not only do soldiers enjoy honor in defending their homes and the country, but also because soldiers are treated very well in Xia Kingdom.  Although it is risky to be a soldier, once you enter the army, it is extremely easy to support your family.  For many people who have never studied, entering the army is an opportunity to support their families and a chance to make a difference.

    In the army, even if the vast majority of people cannot be promoted, at least it is easy to support their families in the army, so it is easy for Xia to recruit soldiers. In a short period of time, the army has expanded to 100,000 people.

    Xue Rengui and Xiao Yuanqi each commanded 50,000 elite soldiers, and the loss of elephant soldiers was also made up for.  However, the lost giant elephants cannot be recovered for the time being, and they can only replenish the giant elephants when they return to Xia Kingdom.

    After the number is restored, it will be the running-in drill of the army.

    Because there are veterans in the army, and the old lead the new, the existence of these veterans makes the recruits adapt quickly.  Especially the veterans under Du Qi's command, they are all the bravest men on the battlefield.  The existence of these people made the soldiers in the army recover quickly, and they already had combat effectiveness.

    Barracks, the big tent of the Chinese army.

    On this day, it was rare for Jiuquan to rain, and the light rain fell, and the whole sky was in a misty state.  Especially after it rains, the weather is even cooler.

    Du Qi was sitting in the tent, writing a book.

    It should be said that he has already transcribed countless materials and transferred them to the University of Science and Technology.  However, after Du Qi transcribed it, it seemed that there were many, but in fact it was too little, because there would be countless materials for every subject of knowledge.

    When Du Qi was writing a book, a soldier entered and reported: "Your Majesty, the chief of the Shangguan Pavilion asks to see you."

    Du Qi ordered: "Pass!"

    The soldiers went to deliver the order. Not long after, Shangguanyi stepped in. With a bright smile on his face, he said happily: "Your Majesty, there is a letter from General Ma from the Western Regions, and there is good news again."

    Du Qi said: "Earlier, Ma Yuan and Lai Ji asked for instructions and wanted to fight against Bolang City. Could it be that they have already won the victory now? So there is a letter to return the joy."

    Shangguan Yi said solemnly: "Your Majesty, it is indeed Ma Yuan who led 50,000 elite troops to attack Braun City, the easternmost region of Persia. In the battle of Braun City, Ma Yuan took Braun City without a single soldier.  For details, please read the letter, Your Majesty."

    While talking, he handed over the letter.

    Du Qi took the letter and quickly browsed it. After he finished reading the letter, he also looked excited and praised: "Lai Ji has indeed lived up to his trust, and he has subverted Braun City with his own efforts. The most important thing is that he  Aiming at Dibbet's shortcomings, the scheme set up is very good. This Dibbet's reward is a bit tricky!"

    Shangguanyi nodded and said: "What your Majesty said is true. Dibbitt is a man who is addicted to alcohol and dotes on his wife. There are indeed shortcomings. However, I think it seems that it is not easy to govern, but in fact it is necessary to cut off the alcoholism.  This shortcoming is easy. The easiest way is to let his wife, Zhao Qingyao, come forward, so that the matter can be resolved. Dibitt has the ability, so it's a pity not to use it."

    After Du Qi heard it, he thought for a while, nodded and said: "Everything you said is reasonable. Send a letter to Ma Yuan to let Dibitt rule Bolang City, and Dibitit will be the city lord of Braun City. If you send a secret order to help, you must  Let Zhao Qingyao, as a bad person, be included in the bad person system. Her task is very simple, that is to make Dibbet do things in a down-to-earth manner."

    "yes!"

    Shangguanyi clasped his fists in response.

    Du Qi said: "The city of Bolang in the western region has been pacified, and there is chaos in the Tang Dynasty in the east, and our military strength has also recovered. At this time, I think it is possible to start a war. Shangguanyi, send an order, and the army will pull out the camp and set off  , marched to Ganzhou, and seized Jiuquan."

    "yes!"

    Shangguanyi responded again.

    He turned around and went to make arrangements. In a short period of time, the order was carried out, and the horn sounded in the army.  When the army dispatched troops and set off, they left Jiuquan and went straight to Ganzhou.

    Before Du Qi's army entered the army, he had already arranged sentries to keep an eye on the situation in Ganzhou.  In all parts of Ganzhou, there was no army guarding at all. Du Qi's army was invincible along the way, unimpeded all the way, and went smoothly to the territory of Zhangye County, and arrived at the location of Ganzhou Government.

    Du QiThe news of the approaching army spread back to Zhangye County and reached Liu Hongcheng's ears.

    During this period of time, Liu Hongcheng has been preparing for the battle.

    Prepare defensive equipment, recruit soldiers to garrison the city, raise food for long-term preparations, and reinforce the city walls and gates of Zhangye County to continuously strengthen the defense.  When Liu Hongcheng got the news that Du Qi was killing him, he went to sit on the tower in Zhangye County in person.  He is now the governor of Ganzhou, under the jurisdiction of the military and government, and has great power.

    Now in the hands of Liu Hongcheng, 30,000 elites have been recruited, which is the limit he can recruit.  If he fought Du Qi's army head-on, Liu Hongcheng wouldn't be sure, but right now he was only in charge of defense, so even if there were only 30,000 people, Liu Hongcheng was still sure, he believed that he could hold the county.

    After several months of delay, the situation will be different.

    Liu Hongcheng himself was a soldier, so he was in command, and he was extremely strict with the soldiers in the army.  All the soldiers were carefully selected and arranged by him to ensure that nothing would go wrong.  Even if Xia Guo's army attacked, Liu Hongcheng had enough confidence to stop it.  After all, Zhangye County, which he was guarding, was already fortified.

    Liu Hongcheng was standing on the city tower at the moment, leaning his hand on the city wall, looked at Guo Zhao, the aide at the side, and said, "Mr. Guo, the army of the Xia Kingdom is here now, and according to the news from the sentry, there are at least one hundred thousand troops  , and there are even elephant soldiers. This battle is quite stressful for us. Do you think we can hold it in the end?"

    Even if it is guarding, Liu Hongcheng is under great pressure.

    After all, defense is not easy.

    Guo Zhao smiled slightly and said, "In my opinion, it may not be easy to defend the county seat for a long time. Unless we can send out surprise troops and defeat Du Qi. Otherwise, it will be difficult for us to win this battle. Let alone victory, we will eventually be able to  It¡¯s already quite good to get out of the body.¡±

    Liu Hongcheng said: "Sir, do you have a plan?"

    Guo Zhaodao: "There is indeed a plan, but it can't be called a surprise plan, it's just a simple and common plan."

    Liu Hongcheng said: "Please enlighten me, sir."

    Guo Zhao said seriously: "The easiest way is to pretend to surrender. Then, we lead the army to submit to Du Qi and let Du Qi's army enter the city. Du Qi entered the city smoothly and mastered the defense of the city. Then Du Qi's army,  We must enter the barracks to rest. At that time, we will turn against the water and blow up the camp. As long as the gunpowder is ambushed in advance, it is not difficult to detonate the camp.¡±

    After a pause, Guo Zhao continued: "It's just that after this method is implemented, our soldiers will also die. If there are no one of us in the camp, it is obvious that we are telling Du Qi that there is a fraud, that there is no silver three hundred here."  Two. So if you want to be successful, you can only be ruthless to yourself and ruthless to the enemy, only in this way can you achieve success.¡±

    Liu Hongcheng frowned.

    This plan will cause injuries to his own people. After all, after the gunpowder in the camp exploded, it is impossible to say that only people from Xia Kingdom were bombed, and people from Datang were not.  This is a strategy of killing one thousand enemies and harming oneself by eight hundred. It is not a good strategy.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
