Xue Ju, the overlord of the Western Qin Dynasty, is a strong man in Jincheng County, about forty years old this year, with a fierce appearance and a burly figure, he has infinite strength, and has practiced a superior martial arts since he was a child.

Later, the son inherited his father's business, served as a captain in Jincheng County, in the thirteenth year of the great cause, he did his best to raise an army of 150,000 people, and took a few months to capture the land of Longxi, the founding name was Qin, and he called himself the overlord of Western Qin, and then proclaimed himself Emperor Qin, and moved the capital to Tianshui.

A month ago, Li Yuan's second son, Li Shimin, led an army of 100,000 and united the 50,000 troops of Li Liang in Hexi to fight against Xue Ju. Under the attack of the two armies, Xue Ju lost three battles in a row, lost his troops, lost the four counties of Tianshui, Longxi, Huining, and Jincheng, and was forced to withdraw to Paohan County.

Li Shimin's general Wang Junkuo led 50,000 troops to Longxi County, and Li Rail led 40,000 troops to Jincheng County, threatening Xue Ju from the east and northeast, and Li Rail sent his brother Li Mao to lead 30,000 troops from Dadou Bagu into Xiping County, directly threatening Xue Ju's rear.

Xue Ju had no more than 60,000 soldiers at this time, most of the heavy grain and grass were lost, and the whole army was on the verge of collapse under the pressure of more than 100,000 troops from the three sides. I was so anxious to use wine every day to drown my sorrows and indulge myself.

On this day, Xue Ju sat alone in the tent and drank alcohol, and after just drinking a dozen glasses, Xue Ju was seven points drunk, and slapped the table and scolded: "Why is there no good appetizer!" ”

A maid trembled and said, "What does Your Majesty want to eat, the slave maid will let the soldiers prepare." ”

Xue Ju glanced at her and said, "I want Li Yuan, Li Rail, and Li Shimin's heads to drink, can you prepare it for me?" ”

"Your Majesty, the slave doesn't have that ability!"

"I know you don't have that skill, but I want to drink on my head!" Xue Ju grabbed the maid's hair with one hand and sneered, "Your head is okay too." ”

The maid was so frightened that she collapsed, and several others cried and got up and fled, Xue Ju was just about to swing his sword and cut it down, when his son Xue Rengao's voice came from outside: "Father, Mr. Xuanling Fang of the Great Sui Fang came to see him, saying that he wanted to cooperate with us to fight Li Yuan." ”

Xue Ju was stunned and stopped his sword, "Which Great Sui?" ”

"It's the big Sui who beats the Liang Division."

Xue Rengao looks quite like his father, as powerful and majestic, and strong in martial arts, but he does not have the cunning of his father Xue Ju, he is more than brave, and his intelligence is insufficient.

Xue Ju was overjoyed, the wine disappeared, and he didn't care about killing the woman, so he said repeatedly: "Quickly invite him in." ”

Fang Xuanling's unexpected appearance made Da Sui his last straw.

After a while, Fang Xuanling walked into the big tent, bowed down and saluted: "His Royal Highness the King of Qin of the Great Sui Dynasty, Fang Xuanling, the envoy, see Xue Gong." ”

Xue Ju has already been proclaimed emperor, but he is an anti-king after all, Yang Tong did not admit it is also in his expectation, Fang Xuanling respects him as Xue Gong, which is enough to give face, although Xue Ju is rude on the outside, but he is extremely fine in his heart, and said with a smile: "Mr. Fang is not polite, please sit down!" ”

"Thank you!" Fang Xuanling bowed and sat down gracefully.

"I remember that your army was not fighting Guo Zihe? How did the gentleman get to Baohan? ”

"It's over!"

"Finished fighting?" Xue Ju was dumbfounded, this is too fast, right?

Fang Xuanling smiled slightly and said: "I want to teach Xue Gong to know that our army has not only recovered Wuyuan and Yulin, but also Lingwu, Yanchuan, Shuofang, Diaoyin, Yan'an, and Shangjun of Liang Shidu. ”

"Shhh

See you sister, see laugh, according to your style of play, in less than a year, the world has been reunified into the hands of the old Yang family.

Xue Ju and Xue Rengao gasped, the father and son knew that the other party had no need and reason to deceive them, and they didn't doubt Fang Xuanling's words at all.

Fang Xuanling said with a smile: "Recruits account for two-thirds, and this time the speed is a little slower. The effect is not as good as the battle of merging states with all the elites, and the speed is not good. Let the two of you laugh! ”

The father and son rolled their eyes, but they were shocked in their hearts, they were very clear about Yang Tong's family history, and they all knew that he had a characteristic of fighting, that is, fast! The Central Plains is fast to fight Wagang, Jizhou is also fast to fight Dou Jiande, Liaodong is still fast to fight Khitan, Goguryeo, and Xi, Monan is not only fast but also ruthless to fight the Turks, and Bingzhou is faster and more ruthless to fight Li Yuan... The ruthlessness of the state is naturally aimed at Li Tang Xiangguo Pei Lian... After that guy was shaved and his eyebrows and mustache, he became the laughing stock of the world, and he had no face to see him.

Xue Ju swallowed his saliva and said, "I don't know ...... sir."

Fang Xuanling smiled: "We know your situation very well, there is no need for you to be tempted, Xue Gong seems to be in big trouble now?" ”

"Not a big problem!" Perhaps because of the drinking, Xue Ju was a little emotional, and he shook his head again and again, "We are about to die, can His Royal Highness King Qin save my life?" ”

Fang Xuanling saw that he was honest and did not have the slightest intention of temptation, knowing that Xue was at a loss for him, and his heart was panicked: "If Xue Gong is willing to cooperate, we are willing to help." ”

"Of course I'm willing to cooperate!" Xue Rengao jumped up.

Xue Ju glared at his son fiercely, although this is also his own heart, but there is no free ...... in the world What, can the other party help themselves unconditionally?

Fang Xuanling nodded and said, "We only have one condition. ”

Xue Ju's heart sank, and he said, "Sir, please speak!" ”

"We're going to Huining-gun."

Xue Ju was stunned for a moment and said, "Huining is now in Li Yuan's hands, and we can't take it back." ”

"I know that!" Fang Xuanling was also contaminated with Yang Tong's domineering style, "I'm talking about the post-war period!" This Hoeryeong-gun needs to be handed over to us. ”

Huining contains huge wealth, from the Han Dynasty to produce silver, this county in later generations renamed Baiyin City, up and down the country, the only city named after precious metals, there are two silver veins and two copper veins, both copper and silver content is very rich, silver reserves up to hundreds of thousands of tons, and Lingwu County contains a large amount of coal, can be in Lingwu County to smelt a large amount of copper and silver.

"It's simple. As long as Li Yuan is defeated, Huining County will be yours. ”

Xue Ju responded without the slightest hesitation, he now has only one county, the whole army is half dead, and there is very little chance of survival, what kind of strength is there to compete with Li Yuan? If he could recapture the other three counties, he would already be very satisfied. Therefore, although I know that Huining County has been a silver-producing land since the Han Dynasty, it should also come down, which is called generosity to others, why not do it?

"Xue Gong, then it's settled!"

Fang Xuanling smiled with satisfaction, this Huining County is also the place where Yang Tong re-explained, the smelting craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry have already set off from Yecheng, and this battle must be resolved quickly.

Then, the details of the military operation were discussed one by one.
