    ?

    Li Jing looked at Du Gou again, and said, "Magistrate Du, can Mayi County prepare military rations?"

    There is indeed some grain brought out from Chang'an.

    In fact, there are not many left.

    It is necessary to wait for the next batch of food from the imperial court to arrive, but the military situation cannot be delayed, let alone logistical materials such as food, which will cause the war to go awry. It must be ensured that even if the food is scarce, it can be replenished immediately.

    Du Gou said: "Mr. Du, don't worry, I can temporarily dispatch food here. Mr. Du has 30,000 people. At least within a month, I will ensure that Mr. Du's soldiers in the army will not be short of food."

    "good!"

    Li Jing stroked his beard with a satisfied expression.

    Mayi County alone can supply food for a month, so Li Jing will not have to worry about this battle.

    Li Jing said: "Whether the Turks can be defeated in this battle depends on this battle. Therefore, I hope that all the gentlemen present here can cooperate closely and work hard."

    Everyone responded in unison.

    All of them are very cooperative.

    After Li Jing arranged many things properly, he dismissed everyone and asked them to go down to make arrangements.  But Li Jing left Du Qi behind, he said seriously: "Erlang, there is one more thing to do in this surprise attack on the Turkic tooth tent."

    "Yang Zhengdao, the remnant of the Sui Dynasty, has been entrenched in Dingxiang County. The opponent's strength is not too many, so what the old man means is that we will divide the troops next."

    "The old man personally led the troops and went straight to the Turkic Yazhang, and you led some soldiers, together with Gao Manzheng, to go straight to Dingxiang to attack Yang Zhengdao. After Yang Zhengdao is destroyed, you will join me again."

    "In this way, you are the army on the bright side, responsible for attracting attention. The army led by the old man is a surprise soldier, who wants to surprise the opponent and achieve the effect of keeping the warehouse in the dark."

    Li Jing said: "What do you think?"

    "no problem!"

    Du Qi nodded and answered.

    For military arrangements, Du Qi believed in Li Jing's arrangements.

    This is the Great Tang Military God.

    Moreover, Li Jing's arrangement is very reasonable, so Du Qi is willing to obey the arrangement.

    Du Qi turned around and retreated.

    He went straight back to his camp to see his brother Dugou.  When Du Gou came to the camp earlier, Du Qi had arranged for Liu Jian to wait in the tent when Du Gou left.

    Du Qi returned to the tent, saw Du Gou, saluted and said, "Brother."

    Du Gou returned the gift.

    The two sat opposite each other, and Du Gou smiled and said, "Erlang, I didn't expect you to come to this battle. Father and mother are in Chang'an, have they ever been safe?"

    Du Qidao: "Everything is fine."

    After a pause, Du Qi said: "Before I left, my mother said that she missed my little nephew very much. If my sister-in-law has free time, she would take my little nephew back to Chang'an to live for a while."

    Over the years, Du Gou already had a son under his knees, who was just over two years old.

    It looks like a tiger's head and a tiger's brain.

    After all, he is the first grandson of the Du family, and the Zheng family dotes on him incomparably.  Now that Mrs. Zheng and Du Ruhui have returned to Chang'an, Mrs. Zheng misses her little grandson.

    Du Gou smiled and said: "I see, I will arrange for your sister-in-law to go south to Chang'an with the child and live in Chang'an for a while later. Besides, your sister-in-law came to Mayi, Shuozhou, and has never been back in these years  My natal family, I should go back and take a look."

    Since Wei Yuanchun married Du Gou, he went north to Mayi.

    The child was born in Mayi.

    Everything is in Mayi.

    So it was also Wei Yuanchun's idea to go south and go home to have a look.

    Du Qi said: "Brother can figure it out."

    The two brothers chatted about family affairs, and gradually, they began to involve government affairs, and finally Du Gou said: "Erlang, you followed King Qin early and made great contributions to King Qin."

    "Even though you have never fought against the enemy or revealed your identity from the beginning to the end, your meritorious service is unquestionable. How did you get here? It is a vain conferment of a title and the post of literary official."

    Du Gou said: "As for the rest, there is nothing."

    Du Qi said: "This is His Majesty's arrangement, I can't figure it out. In short, this matter is as it is now, don't worry about him. But brother, you are the magistrate of Mayi County, and you have made outstanding achievements. Haven't you been promoted?"

    According to Du Gou's qualifications, he can be promoted and appointed.

    Can keep standing still.

    Du Gou explained: "In fact, my official position has been prepared several times by the imperial court.It's straight.  But in Mayi under my rule, there are still many plans that have not been realized.  I voluntarily begged to stay, so I still serve as the county magistrate in Mayi for the time being.  I don't have any opinion on this official position. I should do things well first and then consider other things.  "

    Du Qi nodded and said: "Brother's concerns are reasonable."

    Today's Du Gou is less bookish.

    Even more capable.

    In fact, Du Gou's background is not bad. Du Gou's father is Du Ruhui, the prime minister of the court.  On the other hand, Du Gou's father-in-law Wei Zheng was promoted repeatedly in the court, and he was also a small hill in the court.

    Therefore, it is certain that Du Gou will be promoted.

    It's just that Du Gou is unwilling to be promoted quickly, and is willing to do things in a down-to-earth manner.

    Get things done first.

    Du Qi told Du Gou to leave after talking about some family matters.  After Du Gou left, Du Qi changed his clothes again and went to Gao Manzheng's barracks.

    Du Qi and Gao Manzheng are old friends.

    In the early years, we have known each other.

    Seeing him again now, Gao Manzheng is a little older.  He is responsible for the management of Shuozhou, which borders on the territory of the Turks, and even many places in the north of Shuozhou are under the control of the Turks.

    Gao Manzheng has always wanted to take back everything.

    I want to avenge my shame.

    Now that the team led by Du Qi is heading north in person, Gao Manzheng knows that the opportunity for revenge has come.

    He has a chance to win in one battle.

    When Du Qi entered the camp, Gao Manzheng hurriedly seated Du Qi, and said with a smile, "Young Master Du, you are here. How should we attack Yang Zhengdao in Dingxiang County? You know, Yang Zhengdao in Dingxiang County,  The strength is not weak. Especially, the Turkic side can rush to help Yang Zhengdao at any time."

    Du Qi said with a smile: "It's actually not difficult to deal with Yang Zhengdao."

    Gao Manzheng said: "How to say?"

    Du Qidao: "The main battle this time is still in the Turkic Yazhang. In fact, our appearance is mainly to attract attention. We are going to Dingxiang County. We don't need soldiers to be fast, we just need to march slowly."

    "In at most three days, the army led by General Manager Li will attack the Turkic tooth tent."

    "Based on today's calculations, Jieli must have never imagined that the imperial court would launch a large-scale surprise attack. Therefore, after Jieli's defeat, the remnant forces of the Sui Dynasty entrenched in Dingxiang County are nothing to fear."

    "So we just need to pinpoint the timing and spread the news quickly, and the battle will be won. Yang Zhengdao relied on the Turks. Without the support of Jieli Khan and the strength of the Turks, Yang Zhengdao himself would  Panic."

    Du Qi said: "It will be easy for us to win."

    Gao Manzheng said: "Wonderful, wonderful!"

    His eyes were full of joy, and he said with a smile: "It's so easy to fight with Mr. Du. And a few years ago, I also sent troops to attack Yang Zhengdao several times, but they all returned in vain. Let's attack again this time."  Yang Zhengdao, for people like Yang Zhengdao, it has no influence, and the Turks will not think it has anything, so it is logical for us to send troops. This battle will definitely be won!"

    Du Qi laughed and said, "General Gao is absurd."

    The two discussed the matter of sending troops, and after finalizing the general plan, Du Qi left for the time being.

    That night, Li Jing led his troops to set off overnight.

    The mighty army marched out.

    The next day, early morning.

    Together with Gao Manzheng, Du Qi led 20,000 elites to Dingxiang County.

    It is actually quite normal for Gao Manzheng to send troops to deal with Yang Zhengdao, because Gao Manzheng has sent troops two or three times a year in the past few years, but he failed to win.

    This news spread to the direction of Dingxiang County. After Yang Zhengdao heard the news, he didn't feel much panic.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
