Chapter 396
Li Shimin left the restaurant and was not surprised by the choices of the two, thinking that more interests were the most important for their personalities.
In his eyes, he was very disdainful to be with such people, but he had one advantage that he could handle them easily no matter what kind of person.
Greed is something that everyone has. The more greedy a person is, the more people feel safe. If you give them more benefits, you can control them.
In order to achieve his goal, he had to compromise first. Both sides cooperated to get what they needed. He needed military achievements to prove himself too much, otherwise when he returned to Taiyuan Prefecture, he would still have nothing to hand over to him.
In three days, everything that should be prepared was ready, and even if it was not ready, there was no time for them to prepare.
Nearly 13,000 soldiers and horses gathered in front of Youzhou City, and began to leave along the north in a mighty manner.
On the city wall, Pei Qingxuan and Li Xiuning looked at the soldiers and horses that were leaving, with some of them reluctant to let go.
"Governor." Gao Cheng came over and handed over a superstition to Li De.
After reading the message sent by Martali, she burned the letter with candlelight.
Walking on the map, it is a map made up of spies, and the routes to guide the route are very simple. The surveyor led by Li De is improving in the carriage.
They are not fast.
Two days later, the team of Li De, Li Shimin and others separated into two groups.
"Shimin, take care of yourself!"
Li De could only give comfort, otherwise he really wouldn't know what to say.
"Brother-in-law, take care of yourself!"
The vanguard troops set off again, and the speed of the three thousand people accelerated at this time. They rushed day and night, and in one day they reached the place where the scouts found a good place to find.
After half a month of investigation, the scout did a lot of work and all plans were under control.
I took a day off and woke up until nearly half an night.
There is no cover in the wilderness, and they must take advantage of the dark sky to conduct sneak attacks to achieve their goals.
The lieutenants of the vanguard soldiers took their men to disperse and blocked the surrounding directions. After the Hu Ben, Flying Cavalry, Leopard Cavalry and others launched an attack at the same time.
I have made sufficient preparations and have a good understanding of the other party’s situation.
At this time of night, it is the time for the tribe to rest. When they rise in such an empty place, they will unnaturally relax their vigilance. It is hard to believe that people from the Sui Kingdom will travel thousands of miles to attack.
As a result, all abnormalities became normal in the mind of Li De, a person who is good at thinking from the perspective of others.
The battle lasted until the morning, mainly because the time spent on confiscating the spoils was more time, the cattle, alpaca and horses were more than expected, and the fur wealth was greatly gained, and more than 1,300 prisoners were taken away by them.
Although they don’t understand the lack of farmers in Youzhou City, they can always learn it if they put in some effort.
Compared with the vanguard soldiers, Dou Jiande and Liu Wuzhou were not very lucky. After all, they knew better than anyone else what kind of soldiers they brought.
If they hadn't relied on a large number, they might not have dared to go to war.
I thought I could be able to compete with the Three Thousand Tribes, but I never thought that what they met was a very strong tribe. Most of the three thousand people in the tribe were warriors who were good at fighting.
Even though the real combat power was less than 2,000 people, they still fought tenaciously, and finally let the enemy lead nearly 3,000 people away, and there were not many supplies left behind.
As they pursued, the conflict between Li Shimin and Dou Jiande and Liu Wuzhou was aroused, and the reason was that it was insatiable.
Seeing the profits seized after statistics, Dou Jiande and Liu Wuzhou overturned their previous rules on the division of interests without failing to pursue the enemy.
They want to have a big spoil, and they also have to share half of the war achievements.
The break into the enemy's hinterland to fight and win battles is very important to their general's reputation. This is also because there is no sufficient distribution of benefits to raise it shamelessly.
Li Shimin was just for his military achievements, and what he never expected was that the two of them were so shameless that they could not even see the form clearly. He really regretted asking them to cooperate with them.
It’s better to follow Li De from the beginning to benefit from it.
In the final analysis, it is his self-esteem. He thinks he can use wisdom and means to settle the two of them. Wouldn't he thinks he will encounter some weird things?
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Li family's soldiers are all elite. Although there are not too many enemies, if there are more than twice the number of enemies, they may not be able to have the power to fight.
Looking at the people brought by Dou Jiande and Liu Wuzhou, rural village men and rogues, there are two stages, and one thing that must be mentioned.
As the saying goes, what kind of generals lead to what kind of soldiers? Don’t look at these soldiers who don’t look like soldiers, the combat effectiveness they show when fighting a battle with the wind is simply unbelievable.
Perhaps you can see the momentum of the tiger and wolf soldiers on them.
But they are all guys who are profit-oriented and only care about interests.
"General Dou, Lieutenant Liu, I have promised that as you pursue thirty miles, all the military achievements and spoils will belong to you, and we will have a date in the future."
Li Shimin made a decision and immediately brought people back.
"No," Liu Wuzhou said coldly.
They were in a bad mood without achieving their goal. Besides, they parted ways. Although the generals of both sides did not break up, they did not give each other a good look.
Li Shimin took his men and left quickly.
Dou Jiande and Liu Wuzhou smiled at each other. Anyway, the benefits they had not obtained could be supplemented by military achievements. With this qualification, they were just around the corner.
I even thought about taking over Youzhou.
They did not have a far-sighted vision, so they continued to pursue. Li Shimin knew very well that Li De had said that the troops in Fancheng, Modong, were actually not too far from the two tribes.
The Turks were more familiar with the terrain than them, and if they were not sure about the time-saving paths, they would not be willing to take risks without understanding the situation of the enemy.
Anyway, you can accumulate military achievements at any time, and if your life is gone, you will lose nothing. Besides, how can you suffer with his wisdom?
"Short-eyed guy, see what your fate will happen." Li Shimin thought on the way back. After waiting for a long time, the Li family's soldiers did not really leave, but retreated thirty miles, and then sent a large number of scouts to investigate in front.
In fact, whoever said that the ambush had to be carried out at night, what they did now was to wait for their work.
According to the wingman against the Turks, the tribes that were attacked, and the tribes that came to rescue did not send all their combat power, and most of them were to send one or two commanders to lead people to attack.
In Modong, they walked enough confidence to keep the enemy behind.
Dou Jiande and Liu Wuzhou, who were not sure, continued to chase each other, but they didn't know that someone on the other side had rushed to report the news. According to the convention, a tribe would come to save him within a short time.
