"That's right, Hedong is now in a dead end. No one can win anyone, but it may be cheaper for others. So what we need to do now is to let General Wang Renxiang contact Liu Wuzhou, Liang Shidu and other Hedong, and the troops of the 12 counties of Longyou attack Taiyuan, so that they can fight with Li Yuan in the mood."

"What if Wang Shichong, Yang Hung, Yu Wenhua and others in the southeast of the river take this opportunity to enter Hedong? Wouldn't it be cheaper for them then?"

"Don't worry, Li Yuan and his son are not simple. Thinking about the 600,000 soldiers gathered in Taiyuan that day, but Li Yuan played everyone together and became the final winner, you can understand that the father of the Li family is not a soft persimmon that can be pinned. To attack Hedong, either attack Taiyuan from Jingxing or enter Taihangxing to attack Shangdang. This is the best route. No matter who wants to attack Hedong, they have to fight against Li Yuan and beware of other forces, so this must be a chaotic situation.'

Fang Xuanling said with some emotion: "I am afraid that in this way, the rich river east will be completely turned into white soil, and the people will be displaced."

Chen Kefu was helpless about this. In history, the more military strategists must fight for this place, the more suffering the local people will be. Like Hebei and Henan, these two elite places in the Central Plains have become the most painful place in the entire Sui Dynasty in recent years, and the people in the two places have dropped by 30%. Moreover, as the war continues, the people in these two places will definitely be greatly reduced. Especially in Henan, the two armies of Wagang and Wang Shichong are now fighting, the court system is collapsed, officials are missing, and the military disaster is even more serious. If you continue like this, I am afraid that in a few years, even half of Henan will be left.

"This is also impossible. We saved one person, ten people, hundreds of people, but we cannot save the world. Only by winning this chaotic battle as soon as possible can we calm the chaos in the world and be regarded as truly resolving the people from water and fire. Before this, we can only follow the general trend."

Chen Kefu understood that if he really wanted to forcibly march into Hedong, he would definitely be able to capture many counties and counties in Hedong as soon as possible. However, this would be beneficial for a while, but it would be unfavorable for the overall situation. At present, Chen Kefu only hopes that all parties in Hedong will fight, and the more powerful they will fight, the better. In this way, when he pacified Hebei and entered Hedong, he would just sweep away the powerful local forces that had greatly damaged their power. Just like Hebei, the more corrupt the place, the less restrained they would restrain and control them completely.

As he was talking, another guard came to report that a military force arrived in an urgent manner.

Chen Kefu took the urgent report and took it apart. After the Liang army captured Lishi County in Hedong, Li Yuan immediately withdrew the troops of Loufan County to Taiyuan, completely abandoning the four counties of Yanmen, Mayi, Dingxiang and Loufan in the north. Yang Ming, who was in Jianghan in the south, was also unwilling to be lonely. Yang Ming left his uncle Xiao Yu and Dong Chun to guard Jiangling, and personally led 50,000 troops and veteran Yu Kuluo, Tu Wanxu, Pei Renji to the north. Along the way, he conquered Jianghan Xiangyang, Nanyang, Xiyang, and Shangluo County in Henan. And when the Liang army captured Lishi County, he crossed the Yellow River and went north to attack Hedong County, the southernmost tip of Hedong."

"Yang Hing entered a row to seize the three counties of Henan and entered Hedong. Wang Shichong, the Eastern Capital, was also not behind. He did not go south to compete with Yang Hing for the three counties of Henan. Instead, he crossed the Yellow River and attacked Henei County, Hedong, and seized the first pass of the eight passes of Taihang. He could send troops north to Changping County and Jiang County at any time. Yu Wen, who was in the pass at Tongguan, was eyeing him."

The changes in the northeast of Hebei triggered the actions of Yang Qing and others. However, Li Yuan did not wait for the ills in the face of the troops from all directions. The information showed that the Special Office had already inquired and found out that Li Yuan sent Liu Wenjing, one of the two most important counselors, to the Turks, to the north, to pay tribute to the Turks, and wanted to use the Turks' troops to go south to resist the army.

After Chen Kefu finished watching, he handed the military intelligence to others and smiled and said, "It's really lively! Yang Ming is really a person who will revenge if he has a grudge. He was fooled by Li Yuan in Taiyuan, but now he has taken Jiang Han as the foundation. As soon as he gained a foothold in Jiang Han, he immediately led his troops back to Hedong. It seems that Li Yuan is really having a headache this time."

After reading the information, Du Ruhui said with some concern, "Your Highness, now the Eastern Turks are defeated, but the Western Turks have risen again. They have now crossed the Jinshan Mountains of the East and West Turks' borders. Now they have taken advantage of the chaos of the Eastern Turks to seize the vast tracts of grasslands in the Yinshan Mountains. The power is strong for a while, and even the Western Turks Khans Shekui Khan gradually redirected to the Central Plains. The Liang army had to send troops to help. Now Li Yuan is so proud of his tribute and marriage, but I am afraid that the Turks will take this opportunity to go south."

Gao Shilian also nodded, "The Turkic people were on their backs and they were plundering. The Shekui Khan was indeed brave. The Western Turks were almost destroyed by the joint battle between the imperial court and the Eastern Turks, and even the Chuluo Khan was left in the Central Plains. But over the years, the Western Turks expanded all the way westward, and the land they occupied was equivalent to that of the Eastern Turks. This time, he took advantage of the chaos of the Eastern Turks' defeat and returned to the east of Jinshan. I am afraid that his power would become stronger and he would immediately start the Central Plains again, just like Shibi Khan at the time."

When Chen Kefu thought of this, he frowned. The Turks were like bandits, and they were also bandits riding horses, coming and going like the wind. It was a troublesome thing to really make the Turks go south. At that time, Chen Kefu tried his best to deal with Shibi Khan in order to fear that the powerful Turks would go south. Unexpectedly, he knocked down Shibi, but another Shokui came.

Princess Chen Changsun Wuwugu sat quietly aside without interrupting political affairs. However, at this time, he saw Chen Kefu so worried, and couldn't help but whisper, "Your Highness, Li Yuan is with a kinship against the Turks, and we can also have a kinship against the Turks."

"Good marriage?" Chen Kefu frowned even deeper. He always respected the use of tough means to deal with the grassland people, rather than to educate them with benevolence and righteousness. Especially when it comes to marriage, he always felt that this was weak. He always believed in swords and fire for the grassland people, and only iron blood seeks to convince these people who are not rebellious and submissive.

"Your Highness, there is also a Princess Yicheng of the Great Sui Dynasty in Beijing, and the Eastern Turks are there." Changsun Wugui said softly.
