Chapter 328: Gao Changgong, King of Lanling(1/2)
"I can send troops, but what is the price?"
A prince sat in the main seat, looking down at Huang Taiji and Obai and his group, playing with the dagger in their hands.
Huang Taiji looked directly at the other party, not afraid: "We join forces to break through Xiacheng. I will take Daliang, Xingyang, and Hulao. You will take Xiacheng, Heluo, and even... Guanzhong."
The civil and military ministers on both sides of the left and right whispered, and were alarmed by Huang Taiji's proposal to form an alliance, and had begun to weigh the pros and cons.
These civil and military ministers not only included Han people, but also Xianbei people, Xiongnu people, Gaoche people, Di people, and Qiang people...
The princes of Nanyang summoned civil and military officials of all ethnic groups living in the Central Plains, and surrendered talents regardless of their limitations. Even Xianbei and Chinese became official languages at the same time.
Huang Taiji stared at the princes in the throne and observed his expression.
The other party's ability is no less than that of Huang Taiji.
The person in front of him was Gao Huan, the Emperor of Shenwu of Northern Qi!
This person was a Han native who was transformed into Xianbei, and was a military household in the six towns of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Because the Six Towns Uprising broke out in the Northern Wei Dynasty, Gao Huan became the prime minister from the team leader and supported the Eastern Wei and Western Wei respectively, and was the peerless two heroes at that time.
His son established the Northern Qi on the basis of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, and Gao Huan was also posthumously respected as Emperor Shenwu of the Northern Qi Dynasty.
It is not simple to be an emperor with the posthumous title of "Shenwu".
Gao Huan's starting point was not high. A military householder married the daughter of a Xianbei nobleman and became the leader of the team leader of a hundred people, and finally laid the foundation for the Northern Qi Dynasty. He was also a hero for a while.
Huang Taiji did not dare to underestimate the Emperor Shenwu, but negotiated and impressed Gao Huan with conditions.
"If you want to control Heluo, you must control Hulao. Therefore, after winning, Hulao will belong to me."
Gao Huan was very domineering, and based on Huang Taiji's conditions, he cut off another town.
Huang Taiji always wanted to obtain the important town of Hulao. Seeing Gao Huan strongly cutting Hulao away, he had to agree: "Forget it, if you capture Heluo, Hulao will belong to you. But you need to know that Zhang Hua is extremely difficult and difficult to deal with. You need to use all your troops to win."
Gao Huan looked down at Huang Taiji below. Huang Taiji stood in the hall, neither humble nor arrogant, and clearly organized. He was also a hero: "I have a million troops, and the tiger lies in the Central Plains, so why should Zhang Hua be afraid of it?"
Huang Taiji knew that Gao Huan had exaggerated the strength of his Northern Qi army, but Huang Taiji estimated that Gao Huan might have 500,000 troops.
The Nanyang Basin has fertile land and the surrounding mountains and hills can support a lot of people, and these populations are Gao Huan's source of troops.
Moreover, as a Han Chinese, Gao Huan was transformed by Xianbei and could recruit Han people, Xianbei people, and other tribe chiefs also had a higher recognition of Gao Huan, who had dual identities, and joined the Northern Qi forces established by Gao Huan.
Therefore, Gao Huan is truly a strong soldier, and Huang Taiji dare not provoke him.
With his own strength, Gao Huan directly spoke out and demanded more land.
"Chang Gong, you are the commander-in-chief and lead 300,000 troops to attack Heluo, how about you?"
Gao Huan looked at his grandson Gao Changgong.
This is a young man with fair skin and handsome appearance, who looks a bit like a woman and inherits the appearance of a matriarchal side.
"Gao, Gao Changgong..."
Huang Taiji and Oboi immediately knew the other party’s origin as soon as they heard the other party’s name.
They can't not know, because this is the famous Lanling King Gao Changgong!
Gao Changgong is also one of the three famous generals of Northern Qi!
"No wonder, according to legend, Lanling King's boys and girls have no faces to shock the enemy because his face cannot shock the enemy. Therefore, every time he gets into battle, he has to wear a hideous mask and dishevel his hair to scare the enemy. Now when he sees it, it turns out to be like this..."
Huang Taiji was secretly surprised.
Even Huang Taiji was deeply surprised to see the legendary Lanling King.
Of course, Huang Taiji himself is also a celebrity.
Gao Changgong took the initiative to go out: "Changgong's ability to command troops is far inferior to His Majesty. The attack on Heluo has aroused a single move, and no one of the many soldiers can match His Majesty. Therefore, His Majesty must personally lead the army to fight."
"What King Lanling said is very much. Your Majesty is wise and powerful, sweeping across Liuhe, and being the first-class commander in the world. This matter is important. Only Your Majesty can win if he leads his troops."
"Yeah yeah."
A group of civil and military officials from the Northern Qi Dynasty agreed with King Lanling.
They all knew that Zhang Hua was a great prince who spanned Guanzhong, Heluo, Henoi and Hedong. This time, the dispatch of troops may be related to the life and death of the Northern Qi forces. Who can bear this responsibility?
Only Emperor Gao Huan, the Northern Qi Shenwu Emperor, was able to lead troops to the battle at this time.
"It seems that I can only command the army in person."
Gao Huan pondered for a while, but finally decided to conquer Heluo personally, join forces with Nurhaci, and annex Heluo.
"You go down and rectify the troops of each battalion, and prepare to go to war with me."
"yes."
The generals of the Northern Qi Dynasty retreated, went down to prepare for their troops and horses, and prepared to capture Heluo.
"Huang Taiji, Obai, you two, act with me."
Gao Huan seized Huang Taiji and Obai as hostages to prevent Nurhaci from conquering Heluo in the future, not keeping his promises and refusing to divide the land.
Huang Taiji and Aobai had no choice.
Gao Huan's Northern Qi Kingdom was no less powerful than Nurhaci's Later Jin Kingdom.
Oboi's military power is very high, but there are also those with higher military power under Gao Huan's military power than Oboi.
If others don’t say it, the momentum exudes by Lanling King is no less than that of Obai.
Although Lanling King is not fierce enough, his small fist has a thousand pounds of power and can hammer and kill a powerful general.
"What is Zhang Hua from Xiacheng, what is his origin? Tang Sai'er from the White Lotus Sect seems to have defected to him."
Gao Changgong returned to his camp, counted his troops, and prepared to follow Gao Huan to go on the war.
Gao Changgong was deeply impressed by Tang Sai'er of the White Lotus Sect because it was Gao Changgong who led 500 cavalrymen to defeat the 100,000 members of the White Lotus Sect and were invincible.
Tang Sai'er was forced to take the White Lotus Sect to fight in Shangluo Mountain.
This is what happened before.
Gao Changgong's force can rank among the top three in Gao Huan's power.
The generals of the Northern Qi Dynasty led their troops to gather in Wancheng, with hundreds of thousands of troops and two hundred miles of camp. Wherever the black war horses went, no grass grew.
Gao Huan stood on the high pavilion and looked down at the boundless Northern Qi soldiers below, and couldn't help but feel excited and swallowing thousands of miles of energy.
"We must fight quickly."
After his heart was overwhelmed, Gao Huan reminded himself to fight quickly.
The recruitment of hundreds of thousands of troops looks very spectacular, but the food and grass consumed every day is an astronomical figure.
Emperor Yang Guang of Sui used millions of troops to conquer Goguryeo many times. It seemed that his martial arts were unprecedented, unprecedented, and no one came later. As a result, he forced the national strength to collapse, and the consequence was that the Sui Dynasty was destroyed.
Therefore, when using a large army, we must ensure a quick battle and decisive decision, otherwise it will be dragged down.
Many generals from the Northern Qi forces gathered together. While waiting for the arrival of subsequent food, grass and weapons, these generals got drunk and fought fiercely in the schoolyard in Wancheng. Many generals fought hard in the name of competition.
Huang Taiji took Oboi to secretly observe the reality of the power of Northern Qi.
If the Later Jin joins forces with Northern Qi and defeats Zhang Hua, then Gao Huan may become a powerful enemy of the Later Jin in the future. Huang Taiji is also playing the role of spy while serving as a hostage.
"The Baibaoxianbei of Lanling King... has such a terrible momentum, no less than my white armored soldiers."
While drinking, Huang Taiji watched the battle between military generals in Northern Qi. At the same time, Yu Guang was also observing Lanling King Gao Changgong and the equipped iron cavalry behind him.
Gao Changgong was also drinking and watching the battle.
Behind Gao Changgong were hundreds of people equipped with iron cavalry.
These people are over 1.9 meters tall, each with a burly figure, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, need to be equipped with hundreds of pounds of iron armor, and need strong strength everywhere.
Moreover, these iron cavalrymen look slightly different from those of the Han people, and they look more like Xianbei people.
Huang Taiji knew that this was a trump card of Gao Huan's Northern Qi forces - Baibaoxianbei, commanded by Gao Changgong, the king of Lanling.
As the name suggests, Baibao Xianbei is a Xianbei warrior who has the power of one hundred!
A team of Baibaoxianbei launched a charge at the same time, which was invincible and invincible, and Huang Taiji was also afraid of this.
On the school ground, two Xianbei generals took advantage of the drunkenness to fight each other, fisting and kicking each other, elbows, sweeping legs, and falling over the shoulders, and other moves emerged one after another, and thunder sounds burst out during the fight.
“Too weak, smelly and long.”
Oboi, who watched the battle with Huang Taiji, couldn't help but speak out and mock the two Xianbei generals.
"Wild boar, if you dare look down on us, then come and fight us!"
The Xianbei general called Obai a wild boar, which made Obai furious.
Oboi did not pay attention to Huang Taiji's look, but went to the scene in person to fight against two Xianbei generals.
"oh?"
Gao Changgong also felt that the fight between two Xianbei generals with more than 70 military forces was boring. At this time, Oboi, who was known as the number one warrior in Manchuria, ended up becoming much more interesting.
"You two go together."
"court death!"
Two Xianbei generals were provoked by Oboi, so they did not talk about martial ethics and joined forces to attack Oboi!
