After Guo Ziyi led the army alone, his military talents gradually emerged.
He originally planned to annihilate each group of horse bandits on the grassland, but he considered that when attacking a group of horse bandits, other horse bandits would be afraid of being far away.
After escaping, it would be difficult to find their hiding place and eliminate them.
Therefore, he decided to change his previous combat strategy and not attack any of them directly, but instead drove them to one place and surrounded them.
This tactical strategy is easy to say, but not easy to implement.
It is necessary to grasp the heat well and not have any traces to follow.
Otherwise, once the horse bandits see through, they will not gather together, but disperse and escape.
Guo Ziyi is very good at implementing these details.
He arranges everything in detail and strives to achieve everything.
His personal efforts were not in vain.
The horse bandits on the grassland were driven to one place without knowing it.
After all, the bandits were just horse bandits, and they were naturally at a psychological disadvantage when facing the Tang Dynasty's official army.
Guo Ziyi sent only a small number of soldiers and horses to drive a large number of horse bandits out of their lairs and to places where they could easily escape.
Guo Ziyi followed suit, and all the horse bandits were finally surrounded by Guo Ziyi in Xiaohan Mountain.
Xiaohan Mountain used to be a sacred mountain for ridiculing people and worshiping heaven.
It is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but similarly, the horse bandits who were surrounded in Xiaohan Mountain It was also difficult for the bandits to escape.
A large number of horse bandits gathered here, leaving a lack of food and drinking water on the mountain.
In just a few days, the food and water on the mountain were exhausted, and the Tang army surrounded the mountain for a long time.
A group of horse bandits tried to break out at night, but Guo Ziyi had anticipated this and set up a trap at the breakout point.
There was a large ambush, and all the horse bandits who broke through were transferred into the trap.
No one survived.
At that time, all the horse bandits on the mountain were watching.
As the last torch was extinguished, the horse bandits turned pale with horror, and no one mentioned the breakout again. thing.
If we don't break out, the problem will come again.
There is less and less food on the mountain, and there are more people.
In order to compete for food and water, the horse bandits kill each other.
In the end, only fifty or sixty people survive.
These people They all knew that even if they won, if the Tang army did not retreat, they would still be dead.
When there was no other way, the surrender was proposed by those who still had sense among the horse bandits.
It was not that no horse bandits had proposed surrender before, but these horse bandits had people's lives on their hands, and these horse bandits were all They were people on the grassland, most of whom were Xi and Khitan people.
They could be said to have sworn enemies with the Tang army.
All those who initially proposed surrender were killed instead.
Now someone mentioned the matter of surrender again, and others There was no further objection.
The horse bandits raised a flag of surrender and negotiated with the captains sent by the Tang army.
The horse bandits tried to gain some power and benefits for themselves, but the Tang army refused without hesitation.
Guo Ziyi only had one sentence for the horse bandits, " Either surrender unconditionally or die.”
The horse bandits were forced to have no other choice.
In order to survive, they had no choice but to abandon their weapons and surrender.
Guo Ziyi ordered the prisoners to be gathered and the troops returned to Zhenbei City.
The whole process took exactly two months.
Guo Ziyi, who had just returned, settled down the soldiers, horses and prisoners and went to the Zhenbei Hou Mansion to meet Zhao Ziliang.
He learned that Zhao Ziliang was practicing in the military camp, so he immediately rushed to the military camp and said, "Students pay respects to the commander-in-chief."
"Ziyi is back, how is the suppression of bandits?"
Zhao Ziliang asked Cheng Ruobing and others, who had been trained to lose their temper, to rest for a while, then made a gesture to Guo Ziyi, and the two came to the main tent in the camp.
After Zhao Ziliang sat down, Guo Ziyi cupped his hands and said: "Thank you, Commander, all the horse bandits were wiped out and seventy-eight of them were captured.

The remaining eight hundred and twenty-six all killed each other to death."
"Oh, what's going on?
Why are the horse bandits killing each other?"
Zhao Ziliang was a little confused.
Guo Ziyi immediately explained in detail all the deployment and arrangements of the bandit suppression.
Zhao Ziliang was very happy after hearing this and said: "Not bad, Ziyi.
This time you led the troops to suppress the bandits alone, which shows that you He has truly matured in terms of commanding and commanding troops, and can now stand alone.
The appointment from the imperial court has been issued.
You will go to Yunzhong Shouchuo to take up the post soon.
The former Yunzhong Shouchuo Wu Tiande has been transferred by this general to the left wing as the military envoy to serve as the deputy commander of the march.
You must rush over as soon as possible to hand over to him.
Remember, Yunzhong is the first barrier for the desert to enter the hinterland of Hedong, and there must be no room for failure."
Guo Ziyi knelt down and bowed: "Ziyi, thank you so much for your promotion."
"Get up, you are a talented person and learn to use your strengths.
If you are unsure about something, you can write a letter to the general."
"Yes, students remember it" Guo Ziyi left, and now he is forty-seven years old.
For many people in the Tang army, it is extremely rare for a forty-seven-year-old to serve as a guard, especially in a military town like Yunzhong, and Guo Ziyi He has no background.
If Zhao Ziliang hadn't promoted him, he would have had to wait for another ten or eight years before he had a chance to get ahead.
Gao Xiuyan and Zhang Shouyu also left.
Gao Xiuyan was appointed as the Kelan Military Envoy, and Zhang Shouyu was appointed as the Datong Military Envoy.
They both took their own retinues to take office, and fewer and fewer people were left with Zhao Ziliang.
The others They haven't grown up yet.
As soon as Guo Ziyi was sent away, Cheng Yuanzhen rushed back to Zhenbeicheng and brought Xuanzong's imperial edict.
Zhao Ziliang was overjoyed to receive the imperial edict.
He immediately discussed it with Cheng Yuanzhen and immediately began to implement it.
He also used a flying eagle to send a letter to Zheng San and others in Yunzhou.
People sent out the message, and asked them to send people to spread the message in various places.
As the plan to sell grassland unfolded, the day for the Mobei grassland tribes' alliance was getting closer and closer.
Zhao Ziliang came to Cheng Yuanzhen to discuss how to hold this alliance.
"Cheng Jianjun, how do you think this alliance will be handled?"
Zhao Ziliang raised his tea cup and asked Cheng Yuanzhen.
Cheng Yuanzhen also raised his tea cup in return and said: "The purpose of holding this alliance must be to promote the power of the Tang Dynasty to the tribes in Mobei, so that they will obey and not dare to betray the Tang Dynasty.
Our family believes that this time The alliance must be held solemnly, solemnly, and grandly, and the majesty and momentum must be raised to prevent the barbarians from the Mobei tribes from looking down upon us."
Zhao Ziliang thought for a while, nodded and said: "Yes, I have a lot of military affairs here, and I'm afraid I won't be able to attend to these barbarian leaders, so I would like to ask Mr.
Cheng to do it for me.
I don't know if it is possible."
Cheng Yuanzhen was also worried that Zhao Ziliang would not let him do anything and would support him as a scapegoat.
However, he did not expect that Zhao Ziliang would take the initiative to assign some things to him.
He quickly agreed: "Master Hou, what are you talking about?
One family does not talk about two families."
Well, let’s leave this matter to our family.
Whatever the Marquis orders in the future, just speak.”
"Thank you very much" In the next few days, leaders of the Mobei grassland tribes arrived one after another.
The first to arrive was Qilitu, the nearest leader of Tongluo.
He brought two hundred men with him.

Cheng Yuanzhen received him and arranged for him and his two hundred guards.
Camping by the river, next is Pugu Granbayan, the leader of Pugu in the northeast.
Pugu Granbayan is Pugu Wynn's grandfather.
Although he is a bit old, he still looks very strong and energetic.
Later, Mangtuo, the leader of the Guligan who lived around Lake Baikal in the North Sea, arrived with escorts and tribute gifts.
On the day before the formal alliance, in addition to the new Turkic Khan Baimei Khan, the Uighur leader Guli Peiluo and the leader Basimi Jiediyishi Khan Ashinashi and Wuli, the leader of the eastern part of Geluolu, both arrived successively.
The arrival of Zhao Ziliang still affected some historical processes.
The post-Turkic people who were supposed to have perished last year are still surviving tenaciously.
The Uighur Khanate, which was supposed to be established last year, has not been established yet.
On April 5th, the Mobei tribes meeting was officially held.
The meeting place was located outside Zhenbei City, backed by the Dule River, and facing the north gate of Zhenbei City.
There were patrolling Tang Army cavalry everywhere, and Tang Army infantry soldiers standing guard everywhere.
They all had solemn expressions, stood upright, and exuded a murderous aura.
The leaders of each tribe were already present.
As Zhao Ziliang arrived, the leaders looked at the young man with their eyes, but no one dared to look down upon him.
They all stood up, touched their chests and saluted.
"Everyone, please take a seat."
Zhao Ziliang stood on the stage and said: "This time I have invited you all to join the alliance.
The reason is as you all know.
His Majesty the Emperor has issued a decree that our Zhenbei Hou Mansion, Zhenbei City, and Shanyu Duhu Mansion will be fully responsible for the desert.
Regarding the affairs of the northern tribes, I will invite you all to get to know each other; secondly, this time, the Turkic White Eyebrow Khan No, it doesn’t matter whether he comes or not.
The Turks and the Tang Dynasty have always been mortal enemies.
This general and you all swear an oath here.
Whoever can kill Baimei Khan and destroy the Turks, I will ask the court to confer him as the Lord of the Grassland.
He can do it.
He will occupy all the Turkic lands and obtain their women, cattle, sheep, and horses, and all other tribes will respect him."
As soon as Zhao Ziliang said this, the leaders of the tribes below suddenly became uproar and began to discuss one after another.
Among them, Bashmi Jie fell to Ishi Khan Ashina Shi, who was the most active in thinking.
The temptation to become the lord of the grassland was too great, and he could completely withstand it.
Unable to stop himself, he stood up and asked: "Do you really mean what the Marquis said?
Can the Marquis make the decision?"
Zhao Ziliang snorted coldly and said: "As a general of the imperial court and a Marquis of Zhenbei conferred by the emperor, I am responsible for handling the affairs of all tribes in Mobei.
How can I be kidding?"
Ashina Shi was overjoyed and said loudly: "Okay, since the Marquis is a man of his word, then I, the Bashimmi Division, will first express my support."
Among the tribes represented by the people here, there are only three that are most powerful in fighting against the Post-Turks.
One of them is the Basimi Tribe, which is the most powerful.
The second is the Uighur Tribe, the successor leader of the Uighur Peluo.
Afterwards, recuperate and recharge your batteries , and annexed some small tribes, and their strength increased rapidly.
Finally, there was the eastern Geluolu tribe.
The leader was called Wuli.
Although the name was rather barbaric, this man was quite wise, otherwise he would not have been able to lead the eastern Geluolu tribe to defeat powerful enemies.
Survive on the surrounding Mobei grassland.
After Ashina Shi expressed his support, Bone Strength Pei Luo and Wu Li also stood up to express their support.
After all, if they can get the support of the Tang Dynasty to unify the grassland, their clan's strength will increase significantly, and no one is willing to give up this great opportunity
