    As night fell, the day's banquet came to an end, and everyone went back to their tents drunkenly. Ranqian already wanted to rest, but the eldest son Duji walked into Ranqian's sleeping tent. He knelt down in front of his father Khan and said: "Tujue."  How can the troops be handed over to the Sui generals? I am willing to be the deputy commander and command 20,000 cavalry to go to Khitan."

    Duo Ji had his own ideas. This time he attacked Khitan. Among the 20,000 cavalry that Father Khan was going to send, 10,000 of them were the Guards of Father Khan. Duo Ji's eyes were fixed on these 10,000 Guards.  They are the most elite cavalry of the Turks, warriors selected from various tribes of the Turks. Duji wants to take the opportunity to take possession of these 10,000 troops. If his father Khan dies, even if he succeeds as Khan, these 10,000 guards  The army may not fall into his hands.

    Now that Father Khan is half drunk, he may not be able to understand what he is thinking, so Duoji wants to take this opportunity to persuade Father Khan to agree.

    Although Ranqian was half drunk, he had not forgotten some of the most basic principles. He waved his hands and said with a smile: "You are Ye Hu, how can you live under the Sui generals? You can't go. If you offend Yang Yuanqing, you  If you can't fight him, it will only weaken your prestige."

    Ranqian still remembered the secret murder of Yang Yuanqing by Duoji and Shi Shuhu two years ago. He knew that the relationship between his son and Yang Yuanqing was not good. He did not want to cause trouble in this matter, so he no longer gave Duoji a chance and said decisively: "  You go back and rest! Don¡¯t talk about this matter again.¡±

    Duoji had no choice but to retreat slowly. Ranqian looked up at the tent and thought for a long time. He wanted to find a suitable person to command his guards and at the same time cooperate with Yang Yuanqing to complete the task. Finally, he thought of one person,  Then he ordered the people around him to say: "Go and find Wutu for me!"

    Duoji returned to his sleeping tent. Although his father Khan refused his request to accompany him, he was not willing to accept it. He always felt that there should be a way. In the Guards, he had a confidant general, even if he could not get 10,000  Guards, but he can at least get a rich booty from the Khitan.

    "Get Arruda!" Duoji ordered.

    As soon as he returned to the big tent, one of his soldiers hurried over and whispered a few words in his ear. Duoji understood that he got off his horse and walked towards another small tent.

    When Duji walked into the tent, a fat middle-aged man of medium stature quickly stood up and saluted him, "See Your Highness Ye Hu!"

    Speaking fluent Turkic, Duoji smiled and nodded, "When did Shopkeeper Wang arrive?"

    ¡°Reporting to Your Highness, I just arrived this afternoon and brought a lot of new goods. Here is the list of goods. Please take a look at it.

    Duji read the list and frowned, "Where's the pig iron I want? Why isn't it there?"

    "Reporting to Your Highness, something happened over there in the capital. The pig iron is being investigated closely now. We dare not touch it rashly. Mr. Yuwen said that we will deliver the goods after the storm is over."

    "How long has it been since you were in the limelight?" Duoji said a little unhappy.

    "A few months or half a year!"

    Du Ji pondered for a moment, then nodded and agreed, "I can wait a few months or half a year, but I need one hundred thousand kilograms of pig iron at a time."

    The middle-aged man was startled, "Your Highness, this is too much! In the past, it was always 20,000 pounds per gift."

    Du Ji shook his head, "I really need it urgently, so be it! If you send one hundred thousand catties at a time, I will double the price, and I will pay in gold."

    The middle-aged man thought for a while and realized that the risk was very high. The key depends on how Young Master Yuwen makes up his mind. He did not dare to agree, so he bowed and said: "You cannot make the decision in a humble position. I will go back and discuss with Young Master Yuwen. I will only do it after Young Master Yuwen decides. And  There is not so much inventory in the warehouse in Mayi County, so we still need to transfer goods from various places."

    "I know that I believe Mr. Yuwen will be happy to do this good deal."

    Duo Ji is very confident. The price he offered is equivalent to ten times the price of primary iron in China. With Yu Wenji's greed, how can he resist the temptation of ten times the huge profits.

    Duji came out of the small tent. At this time, his confidant Arruda had been waiting for a long time. Aruda was one of the five captains of ten thousand men under Duji. He was brave and good at fighting and won the trust of Duji. Now he is the Khan's Guards.  He served as the Zuo Kill General and commanded three thousand-man troops.

    Seeing Duoji step forward, Aluda quickly bowed and saluted, "See Ye Hu!"

    Duoji nodded, "Come to my tent, I have something to tell you."

    The grand banquet did not last for three days. Two days later, Yang Yuanqing led 10,000 Turkic elite cavalry to the east and attacked the Khitan territory in a mighty manner.

    Ranqian handed over 20,000 cavalry to Yang Yuanqing. One was the Ranqian Guards, which was Ranqian's extremely elite army. It was led by Yang Yuanqing's old friend, the Turkic prince-in-law Wutu, and was under the command of Yang Yuanqing. The other army came from nearby  A Turkic tribe in the Khitan called the Mengwu tribe. This tribe often dealt with the Khitan people and was very suitable for carrying out this mission.service.

    After eight days of marching, the team had left the Turkic tent for nearly twenty miles. In the morning, the army arrived at the Mongol tribe located in the middle reaches of the Kerulen River.

    The Mongol tribe is a large tribe among the Turkic tribes. There are nearly 100,000 people in the tribe, which can form an army of 30,000 people. Utu showed the Mongol chief Qimin Khan's golden arrows and bamboo tube order, and asked the Mongol chief to  The Wu tribe sent out 10,000 cavalry and accepted the command of the commander Yang Yuanqing.

    The Mongol chief's name is Wanda. Like other Turkic tribes, he also acts according to the interests he sees. The Khan's golden arrows and the bamboo tube order are one thing, and more importantly, they are profitable. Without the Khan's order, they would also  They did not dare to send troops to attack the Khitan, and they were also afraid of the Khitan's revenge, but since they had the Turkic tentacles behind them, they sent troops without any scruples.

    He sent 10,000 troops and handed them over to Yang Yuanqing. Yang Yuanqing began to rectify and train this 10,000 Mongolian army. To be precise, these were not 10,000 cavalry, but 10,000 herdsmen, with backward equipment and wearing rough leather armor.  , armed with homemade spears and knives, and undisciplined.

    Yang Yuanqing did not accept the commanders of thousands and commanders of ten thousand from the Mongolian tribe, but only the commanders of centurions. He needed to appoint the commanders of thousands and ten thousand by himself. As compensation for the Mongolian tribe, he promised to share the spoils of the Sui army.  Giving 30,000 sheep to the Mengwu tribe, Chief Wanda readily agreed to Yang Yuanqing's exchange terms.

    Yang Guang's mission to Yang Yuanqing had two purposes. One was to teach the Khitan clowns a lesson and leave them with bloody memories. The second was to try to turn Turks into Sui Dynasty mercenaries and use prairie people to become mercenaries.  To deal with the grassland people, this method is not as simple as leaving a task to the Turks and letting the Turks complete it. Instead, it must be led by the Sui generals, and the Turkic troops must absolutely obey the Sui generals' command.

    From a purely military perspective, Yang Yuanqing does not need to reorganize the army. The Turks have a strict military organization, with ten, one hundred, one thousand, and ten thousand people, each with its own army leader. As long as he can control two captains of ten thousand,  Then he can control the entire army.

    But Yang Yuanqing had his own ideas. The reason why he went to Qi County to borrow Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin and Luo Shixin was because he wanted to win them over through this war, and wait until one day they could be used by him. Since he took them on an expedition, he  We must give them the opportunity to lead their troops into battle.

    In the big tent, Yang Yuanqing was explaining his army plan to everyone.

    "These 10,000 Turkic Mongol cavalry are undisciplined and are basically herdsmen. I need to spend ten days on intensive training for them. This task will be left to you. From now on, you are the commanders of thousands of Turks. You can follow the instructions  The Sui army's method of training them is simple, the key is to stop when the order is issued. Our battle against the Khitans is most likely to be at night, so we must also train their night fighting capabilities."

    Yang Yuanqing glanced at Qin Qiong and saw that he seemed to have something to say, so he smiled and said, "If Captain Qin Qiang has any suggestions, please speak up."

    Everyone laughed. The title Captain Qin was really interesting. Qin Qiong stood up and bowed to Yang Yuanqing, "I have two suggestions to report to the general!"

    Yang Yuanqing smiled and nodded. This was the effect he wanted to see. Everyone called him general and claimed his humble position. In this way, Qin Qiong and others became his generals. They had this brand in their hearts, no matter who they were.  Wherever there is chaos in the world, they will take the initiative to seek refuge with themselves instead of seeking refuge with Wagangzhai or Wang Shichong and others. This is a very important sense of belonging. Yang Yuanqing also feels a little regretful in his heart. He should bring Shan Xiongxin with him.  bring.

    "General Qin, please speak!"

    Qin Qiong pondered for a moment and then said: "I am first worried about whether our Sui army's night fighting methods and some military methods, such as listening to drums to identify flags, some basic fighting techniques, etc., will be leaked to the Turks."

    Yang Yuanqing laughed, "This is General Qin's first time dealing with Turks. It's understandable that he has this worry, but I want to tell you that the Turks have long known the military methods you mentioned. It's easy to know about them, casually  We can learn this from some captured Sui troops. Moreover, when Qi Min's army was defeated and they withdrew into Mayi County, the late emperor sent Sui troops to train them. Qi Min Khan may know better than me. You don't need to do this.  Worry, just train them the normal way.¡±

    Qin Qiong blushed. It was really easy for a Turk to know this. He was overthinking it. He bowed again and said: "The second problem with the humble position is how to communicate in language. The Turkic soldiers speak Turkic and don't know Chinese. We  He also doesn¡¯t understand Turkic language, so training is difficult.

    Not only Qin Qiong was worried, several other people also whispered, Pei Xingyan also said: "General, this is indeed a problem, we can't communicate."

    Yang Yuanqing had already thought of it. He pointed at his eight soldiers and said with a smile: "My eight soldiers can all speak Turkic. They can't speak very complicated ones, but simple communication is no problem."?They will each follow you, one as your general, to help you communicate with the Turks.  "

    Yang Yuanqing thought carefully. In addition to Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Pei Xingyan and Luo Shixin, the ten thousand captains also have six iron guards of their own who can also serve. Among the iron guards, Yang Dalang and Yang Balang can say a few words.  In Turkic language, there is no need for translation. The other eight people are each assigned one of their own soldiers, while the remaining people follow themselves.

    Among these people, Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin have no problem. Pei Xingyan has been a left guard for a year and can barely train Turkic soldiers. The only thing he is worried about is Luo Shixin. The young man is only twelve years old. Although he is very skilled in martial arts, he may not be able to train Turks.  The Turks can be suppressed, and he may not necessarily know the training methods of the army.

    Yang Yuanqing walked up to Luo Shixin, patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Otherwise, just follow me!"

    Luo Shixin shook his head, "The general underestimated me. My father is an officer in the army. I grew up in the army. I started to officially participate in county army training last year. I have no problem."

    Yang Yuanqing turned around and looked at Qin Qiong. Qin Qiong nodded, meaning that there was nothing wrong with Luo Shixin.

    This is the best, Yang Yuanqing smiled happily and said: "Okay! Then count yourself as one, Captain Luo Qian, don't let me down."
