    When Huang Mingyuan was still worrying about the upcoming situation in Lingzhou, Yang Guang was still wandering leisurely on the grassland with hundreds of thousands of troops, not at all worried about the upcoming fate.  Or they never considered failure.

    The victory of the Battle of Wenchi allowed the radicals to completely overwhelm the moderates. Even the defeat of Duan Wenzhen and the Dengkou Incident could not persuade them.  Everyone saw that even Huang Mingyuan was forced to choose to escort grain and grass, so what reason did they have to stop Yang Guang's decision.

    Under the encouragement of Yu Wenshu and others, Yang Guang also believed that this battle, like the Battle of Mobei commanded by Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, would bring peace to the Sui Dynasty for twenty years.

    Yang Guang is a man of great ability, but thirty years of smooth sailing have left him with a lack of education in setbacks.  As for his inherently over-achieving, proud and complacent character, if he was suppressed by Yang Jian on weekdays, he could easily overcome it. But on the grassland, with an army in hand and deciding one side, he became a little over-excited and didn't know why.  .

    And this consequence directly led to all the disasters that the Sui army faced next.

    Regarding Zaire, Yang Guang actually didn¡¯t really believe it in his heart. Yang Guang had long since passed his innocent boyhood, and it was not safe to bet everything on Zaire.

    But he couldn¡¯t stand Yu Wenshu¡¯s persuasion.  Yang Guang didn't want to go back to Lingzhou in disgrace. Although he won a battle, it might be the last time in his life to lead an army in person. He hoped for a perfect result.

    Zaire is currently the only person who can make him realize his wish, so at this time, Yang Guang cannot help but choose to trust Zaire and ignore all other unfavorable information.

    Murong Sanzang and Zhou Luohu were very dissatisfied with the hundreds of thousands of troops following a Turk of unknown origin in circles on the grassland. They went to find Yang Guang together, hoping that Yang Guang would be wary of Zaire, but Yang Guang refused.  Now whether to trust Zaire has become a question of the Sui army's line.  Opposing Zaire as a guide would be at odds with Yang Guang's route and Yang Guang's throne.

    The army, led by Zaire, headed north.  In order to better complete this pursuit, Yang Guang transferred Zhou Luohu back to the central army and asked Yuwenshu to be the vanguard himself.  After some troubles, the Sui army found Bujia Khan's military camp, but there were not many soldiers here.

    But this was enough to make Yang Guang and Yu Wenshu excited.

    Zaire then explained that Bujia Khan was collecting the remaining soldiers from the east, and the next garrison was not far from them.  In this way, the Sui army continued to chase for two days, and it was still the same. There were always hundreds of Turkic soldiers in front of them, and they were about to collapse at the first touch, but the Sui army did not achieve much results.

    By this time, most people could see that the Turks in front seemed to be inducing the Sui army to move forward step by step.  Everyone began to worry. They thought that Zaire had evil intentions and that nothing good would happen if they continued to follow him.

    However, Yang Guang did not have this awareness, or in other words, Yang Guang may have realized it, but now he had no choice but to bite the bullet and support Zaire in order to win, until his head was broken and bloody.

    On the third day, Yang Guang still ordered the troops to follow Zaire. Now even Yuan Shou could not sit still.

    After dinner that day, Yuan Shou, Murong Sanzang, Zhou Luohu, Duan Wenzhen, Tu Wanxu, Quan Wu and others went to Yang Guang's tent together to persuade Yang Guang to retreat in time, as there might be a Turkic ambush ahead.

    If Yuan Shou was the only one, Yang Guang might have really listened to Yuan Shou's advice. After all, although he longed for military success, he would not risk everything on his position as Crown Prince.  But the bad thing is that all the generals came together to persuade him.

    "This is a naked attempt to force the emperor to surrender. Have they forgotten that this army's surname is Yang?"

    Yuanshou and others persuaded Yang Guang that Zaire led the army back and forth in a detour, approaching the outer edge of the Gobi little by little. It was beyond the detection range of the Sui army, and it was precisely to bring the Sui army into the encirclement of the Turks.

    But no matter how everyone tried to persuade him, Yang Guang did not agree with the withdrawal. He insisted that there must be Bujia Khan's base camp ahead, and as long as the army continued to move forward, it would win.

    Yuanshou was so anxious that he jumped up and down, regardless of the superiority relationship between the two parties, and shouted: "If the prince really insists on his own way and leads to a great defeat, will the saint spare the prince lightly?"

    After saying this, Yuan Shou himself was shocked and immediately asked Yang Guang to apologize for his gaffe.

    Yang Guang's face turned green, and he ignored Yuan Shou. Instead, he looked at the generals with an unkind expression, holding a sword in his hand and said: "Today we will have a decisive battle with the Turks. In these few days, at this time, if anyone dares to be capricious, fearful  The enemy is like a tiger, and you will not be spared if you are alone." But Yao Junsu drove the generals out.

    Yuan Shou and others left with dejected faces.??Yang Guang's camp.  As soon as a few people came out of the tent, an angry Yang Guang kicked over the table.

    "I'm still here. If you insult me ??like this, you deserve to be killed."

    At this time, Yang Guang regretted that he had sent Huang Mingyuan and Yu Wenshu out, while Pei Ju stayed in Lingzhou. As a result, Yang Guang now had no trusted generals to protect him.  If Huang Mingyuan had been guarding the tent with a knife just now, giving Yuan Shou and others ten courages, they would never have dared to be so presumptuous.  After all, Yang Guang didn't have troops who were absolutely loyal to him, so these old army ruffians dared to disobey him.

    Yang Guang made up his mind to lead his army to find the main force of Bujia Khan and defeat him, otherwise they don't know what they will do.  Now, the dispute between the two sides is no longer just a simple dispute of "Is Zaire credible?", but a battle for rights, routes, and attitudes.

    Yang Guang is ready to divide this group of people and win them together.

    Yang Guang first summoned Tu Wanxu and Zhou Luohu alone.  Tu Wanxu is Yang Guang's old general; Zhou Luohu is the representative of the Jiangnan family in the military, and is also the faction Yang Guang relies on most.  When the battle became a battle of lines and they needed to take sides, the two had no choice but to bite the bullet and choose to support Yang Guang.  Of course, historically, after Yang Guang became the crown prince, they each held the position of prince's left and right princes, respectively.

    Duan Wenzhen served as Yang Guang's Sima of Yangzhou's general administration, and he was close to Yang Guang. In addition, he had to rely on Yang Guang to maneuver for him in the previous defeat; Quan Wu was also Yang Jian's confidant; Murong Sanzang was a remnant of the former Qi Dynasty, and he was wise to protect himself.  Soon everyone had no choice but to follow Yang Guang's command and continue heading north.

    Yang Guang ordered Yuwenshu to set off as he had done a few days ago. The leader was Zaire. This time he did not disappoint Yuwenshu. The Turkic army he had been looking for for a long time finally appeared.

    Unlike Yu Wenshu¡¯s expectation that the Turks would flee as soon as the two sides met, these Turkic cavalry came on their own initiative.

    Bujia Khan's big blue wolf banner was fluttering in the wind, and the Turkic cavalry holding scimitars were also ready to attack.  When these Turks saw the Sui army, they did not run away or panic. Instead, they seemed to be well fed and well slept. They were watching them in high spirits at this moment.

    Yu Wenshu thought, I finally found you, it was so hard for me to find you.

    Bujia Khan thought, I have finally waited for you, I have been waiting for a long time.

    Yu Wenshu realized something was wrong, so he sent someone to summon Zaire, but unfortunately, no one knew where Zaire had gone.  Yu Wenshu felt extremely cold at this time and quickly sent someone to notify Yang Guang.

    But it was already too late. Bujia Khan's 200,000 troops had already surrounded Yang Guang's main force who had entered the ambush circle.

    At the end of June of the 20th year of Kaihuang's reign, the Sui Dynasty's West Route Army led by Jin Wang Yang Guang, with a main force of about 120,000, was surrounded by a main force of 200,000 by the Turkic Bujia Khan in the Mi'echuan area northwest of Langshan.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
