North of Yunnei County, at the foot of the Great Wall. Dulan and Nili's vanguard suddenly arrived, but there were still only three hundred guards at this important Great Wall pass at the northern end of Yunnei. The Turkic cavalry came like a tide, and black clouds covered the city. The defenders on the city hurriedly fought, but they only struggled for a moment longer. In less than an hour, the Great Wall pass had been lost. Having secured this important pass, Dulan and Nili had torn open the long-dilapidated outer Great Wall defense line in the northernmost part of the Sui Dynasty. Standing on the dilapidated Great Wall, Du Lan was in a good mood. He smiled and said to Nili Khan: "Back then, this was the Jishang Fortress of the Northern Wei Dynasty. This was the capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Further north, there were six towns guarding the northern line. It was so prosperous back then. It is said that Pingcheng and Gyeonggi once had a population of one million. " "The Tuoba clan was really great, but unfortunately they were deceived by the Han people and eventually moved their capital to Luoyang. They wanted to promote the sinicization of the grassland. Not being a wolf but going to be a sheep in the Central Plains. As a result, in only thirty years, there was a great rebellion in six towns. In only thirty-five years, there was the Heyin Incident. All the officials and more than 2,000 people threw themselves into the rolling Yellow River beside Heyin. Forty years after the capital was moved to Luoyang, the Northern Wei Dynasty was finally controlled by Gao Huan and Yu Wentai and split into the Eastern and Western Wei Dynasties. "It seems that the capital is dead." Lan Khan is quite familiar with the Northern Wei Dynasty," Ni Li said with a smile. Du Lan put away the emotion in his heart. He was familiar with the history of the Northern Wei Dynasty. That was because his father Sha Bolue made special requests to their brothers, asking them to learn literati culture and read Han Chinese history. But at the same time, his father warned their brothers specifically about the history of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Let them understand, let them learn Han culture. But it is just to understand the Han people, not to ask them to become Han people. Wolves can only remain wild. Talent can always be ferocious. If a wolf eats grass instead of meat, then the wolf will be no different from a sheep. The Tuoba clan of the Northern Wei Dynasty was such a powerful being. It was the only Hu clan that ever occupied the Central Plains. Even though they only ended the Five Hu and Sixteen Kingdoms period and unified the north, they were not able to destroy the Southern Song Dynasty. , but this alone is enough to be praised by future generations. But the Tuoba clan lost themselves after taking control of the Central Plains. Forgetting their origins and identity, they became Han people who were not Han people and eventually perished. My father, Sha Bolue, was always filled with sadness every time he talked about the Northern Wei Dynasty moving its capital to Luoyang, reforming Sinicization and ending up with its demise. His father once said to him that if the Turks could take over the Central Plains like Tuoba, they would never take the path of Sinicization. They must adhere to the traditions of the Turks and encircle the entire northern part of the Central Plains as Turks. pasture. To allow the Han people to cultivate food in the hot and unfit for grazing areas south of the Yangtze River, we cannot use Han people as officials. We must imprison Confucianism and Han culture and relegate the Han people to slaves. Press them firmly down so that they can never turn over. If necessary, you can kill and clean them several times first. After all, there are too many Han people and they are always a threat to the Turks. pity. My father never had the chance to take control of the Central Plains and attacked the Sui Dynasty twice. They were all defeated, and the ensuing struggle for the throne of Khan completely plunged the Turks into civil strife. Later, they became losers and were forced to surrender to the Sui Kingdom. If he hadn't been too depressed, his father wouldn't have died so early. Now, what my father failed to do back then, I will do for him. "I think we should divide our troops into two groups, go all the way south across the Great Wall, and directly attack Yunnei County and Heng'an Town. All the way directly east along the six-town border defense road of the Northern Wei Dynasty, directly attack Huaihuang." Ni Li Spread out a sheepskin map, which describes in great detail the area where Yinshan, Yanshan and Taihang Mountains meet. He pointed to the current position and said, "This group of soldiers and horses in the south will surround Yunnei City and Heng'an Town before the Turkic reinforcements arrive. If there is a chance, we will directly capture these two cities. If there is no chance, then send Some of the troops surrounded and refused to attack, while others divided their forces into two groups and attacked from south to east along the Great Wall, sweeping the cities of Changqing, Tiancheng and Huai'an along the Nanyang River. It was best to surround Daning Pass and block Huai'an Pass. Huang's south retreat route completely surrounded and isolated Huaihuang. The other troops marched eastward along the Sanggan River Valley, sweeping up Zhuolu and Huailai in Guizhou, and finally attacked Jundu Pass. "Are the forces too spread out?" Du Lan saw Ni Li's plan and had to praise his boldness, but he was also a little worried. After all, all the armies of the Sui Dynasty are now heading north. There are 250,000 on the Yanmen line in Taiyuan, and 100,000 on the Youzhou line. Ni Li said confidently, "Soldiers are valuable and quick. We must act quickly before Gao Jiong in Taiyuan understands our latest plan. As long as we can capture the cities of Yunnei and Heng'an, then the Sui army's Shuozhou will be defeated." There is no danger to defend. Unless they want to fight with us in the wild, they will have to retreat to Yanmen and Loufan Pass. If we can attack more quickly and fiercely, we will have a great chance to overtake the Sui army in Youzhou. Before reacting, we can capture Daning Pass and surround and isolate Huaihuang. If the Immortal God bless us, we might be able to directly capture Jundu Pass and kill them.?Youzhou. " "The danger of Jundu Pass is no less than that of Yanmen. I'm afraid it will be difficult to win in a short period of time. "Dulan had attacked the border of the Sui Dynasty before, and knew that although the Sui army's outer Great Wall was weak, the guards on the second Great Wall were very strong. Jundu Pass, as the northwest gateway to Youzhou, is even more important. It was very important. There were heavy troops stationed all year round and it was very close to Youzhou. Reinforcements could come at any time. He didn't have much confidence in taking Jundu Pass in a surprise attack. He even thought that it was impossible to accomplish it. Ni Li smiled indifferently. , "It doesn't matter if we can't take Jundu Pass. As long as we can quickly reach Jundu Pass, we can also block the Sui army in Jundu Pass and prevent them from leaving. Nili drew a circle on the map with his big hand, "Shuo, Gui and Wuzhou, such a large piece of land, if everything goes well, it will be enough to swallow them." If things go more smoothly, we can also capture Yuzhou and even Xinzhou. Brother, aren't you satisfied with being able to plunder so many states at once? " "satisfy! "Dulan's eyes were shining as he looked at the circle drawn by Nili. This is a land of several states. The Huaihuang alone was enough to satisfy him. He had heard a lot about Huaihuang. Legend has it that it is a golden mountain with countless wealth. It is said that the population here is no less than 500,000. Even if it is divided equally with Nili, he can still get 250,000. With a large population, his power will immediately increase. When Nili made this plan, his core plan was to attack Yunnei and Heng'an, because as long as they occupied these two towns, they would control them. Without the strategic key point in the north of Shuozhou, the Sui army would be in a very embarrassing situation. If they left Shuozhou City and headed north, they would have no strong city to rely on in the north. At that time, they would have to face a field battle with the Turkic army. Either they have to attack the Turkic army who occupy the advantageous positions of Heng'an and Yunnei. By occupying these two places, the Turkic army is equivalent to guarding the passage in and out of Hedong. It can attack when advancing and defend when retreating. They went to sweep away the Turkic soldiers and horses in Guiwu Prefecture, blocking the Sui army in Hedong from rescuing Huaihuang, and ensuring that the Turkic army surrounded Huaihuang. Nili never really thought about occupying Shuo, Wei, Gui, and Wu outside Yanmen Pass. He had never thought about the land of the four states. All he wanted to do was to raid the land of the four states and rob them of everything they could, including money, silk, women, people, cattle and sheep. That was enough for this plan. Du Lan generally agreed with the plan. He had never thought about the arrogant idea of ??attacking Taiyuan, entering Youzhou, or even entering Luoyang. I believe it was Datou Khan, and he probably never thought about attacking Chang'an. What they wanted was to plunder the Sui Dynasty's border areas and burn, kill and plunder fiercely. They not only robbed the Turks of copper, iron, salt, cloth and silk, which were in short supply, but also wanted to show their strength to the Sui Dynasty. The ending of course is that the Sui Dynasty will continue to pay tribute and marriage to the Turks as they did before, and send gold, silver, money and silk to the princess. Of course, when the Turks become more powerful, they will not mind ruthlessly robbing the Sui Dynasty's father-in-law. Or just like the Tuoba clan, go south and conquer the Central Plains, command thousands of miles of the Central Plains, and enslave tens of millions of Han people. Now, it¡¯s not that time yet, grab a handful and get the benefits, and show their power to the Sui people. Being brave and powerful is enough. Even Nili has heard about the wealth of Huaihuang, and Huaihuang is located on the fortress, outside the Great Wall. Although it is said that Huaihuang has built many towns and fortresses, and has many towns. There are few soldiers and horses. However, Nili does not think that the bustling border city of Huaihuang has a strong military force. In his opinion, the most important thing is to make preparations first, cut off Huaihuang's retreat and encircle it on both sides. The most important thing was to prevent Huaihuang's money and population from evacuating into Youzhou. As for whether he could defeat the Huaihuang army, this was something he had never thought about, because they had an army of 200,000 and another 100,000. Tiele's army is heading south. Could it be said that their 300,000-strong army can't defeat a small Huaihuang? The most important thing is to ensure that the big fish in Huaihuang doesn't get away. "There are a few strong bones." , must be chewed first. "Ni Li said to Du Lan, "Yunnei and Heng'an must be captured by some means. At the very least, we cannot allow the Sui army to reinforce these two cities. This is the top priority. If we cannot capture these two cities, then the soldiers and horses we send to Daning and Jundu Pass will have nothing to worry about. In addition, Jundu Pass can be besieged but not attacked, but Daning Pass must be captured. " After listening to Nili's words, Du Lan was also making a small calculation in his mind. He divided his troops into two groups. The southern group obviously had heavier tasks and greater pressure. He had to besiege the towns of Yunnei and Heng'an, and also raid Yanghe and Sanggan. Along the river, we must finally capture Daning Pass, an important pass of the Great Wall, and besiege the military capital of the northwest gateway of Youzhou. The troops on the South Road must be divided into three groups. Not to mention the other towns, the most important thing must be. The three passes that were captured were Yunnei, Heng'an, and Daning. Not to mention, the troops who entered the Great Wall had to faceThe Hedong Army from the Yanmen and Shuozhou directions may rush to Yunnei for reinforcements at any time, as well as the Hebei Army from the Youzhou Military Capital Pass. Too much pressure! (To be continued)?¡
