The long-lost system voice sounded, and Yang Ji's mouth curled up slightly.
He did not expect that rescuing his grandfather, Yang Guang, was also one of the system's missions.
The route chosen would probably determine the future of Yang Ji and the entire Great Sui.
"The specific route."
Yang Ji said in a deep voice.
'Ding…the route is divided.'
"The first route is to return to the West Ocean and continue to be the Viceroy.”
"The second route is to follow my grandfather back to Luoyang, the eastern capital, and reunite the northern lands.”
"The third route is to defend Taiyuan in Bing Prefecture and destroy the Eastern Turks.”
The three routes were clearly displayed, and Yang Ji frowned slightly.
The first route was to return to the West Ocean and continue to be the Governor of the West Ocean garrison. If he had this choice, then what was the point of Yang Ji rescuing Yanmen Pass?
If he returned to the West Ocean and continued to be the Viceroy, then everything would be back to square one. The turning point of the Great Sui's life and death at Yanmen Pass would be meaningless.
Therefore, the first route was not possible. Only cowards or incompetent people would return to the West Ocean.
As for the second route, he chose to return to Luoyang, the eastern capital, and return to the court of Great Sui. If he wanted to completely change the fate of Great Sui, Yang Ji naturally had to return to the center of power.
In addition, the external problems had been resolved. Next, they naturally had to deal with the internal problems. They had to unify the north in one fell swoop and stabilize the current situation in Great Sui.
Otherwise, how could he change the fate of Great Sui?
As for the third route, there was no need to choose it now. After the defeat at Yanmen Pass, the Turks needed a long time to recover and stabilize their internal situation.
After all, Shibi Khagan was already dead, and the new Chuluo Khagan might not be able to suppress the other Turks.
Even if they could quickly stabilize the situation, they had lost 300,000 soldiers in the battle at Yanmen Pass, which had already damaged their foundation.
As such, it was impossible for them to have a large military force in a short period of time, let alone sweep the earth.
The other point was that the shadow Yang Ji had cast on them was enough to intimidate the Turks. As long as Yang Ji and the West Ocean army existed, the Turks would not dare to go south again.
Overall, the second route was the most important choice.
The first route was an idiot's choice, and the second route was not necessary.
After all, the Turks had already resolved their foreign invasion, and the situation in Great Sui had temporarily changed. Even if they wanted to deal with the Turks, this was not the time.
At the very least, he would have to wait until he changed the fate of Great Sui and even stabilized Great Sui before he would clean up everything around him.
" Choose route two."
After much consideration, Yang Ji said without any hesitation.
"Ding…the Subordinate Lord has chosen the second route. We will return to Luoyang together and unify the north.”
'Ding…corresponding reward obtained.'
" 10,000 ace black-armored cavalrymen."
" 10,000 ace Sui Wu infantry."
"The special organization, the North Branch of the Embroidered Uniform Guards.”
"Special organization, Jinyiwei South Branch.”
"Special organization, West Branch of the Embroidered Uniform Guards.”
The system's voice sounded continuously, and at the same time, space distorted. The first thing that appeared in Yang Ji's hand was a token similar to a tiger talisman.
The token was split into three tokens. The three tokens were engraved with the words North, South, and West respectively, corresponding to the three divisions of the Brocade Guard.
As for the black-armored cavalry and Sui Wu, they had already appeared in the army stationed in the West Ocean. The current strength of the West Ocean army in Yanmen Pass was more than 20,000. If the black-armored cavalry and Sui Wu soldiers were dispatched, Yang Ji's strength would also increase. It would be an elite army of 40,000.
The black-armored cavalry were the elite light cavalry of the Great Tang. Their fighting ability surpassed the Turks, who were also skilled in light cavalry. The black-armored cavalry wore black armor that was as black as ink, hence their name, the black-armored army.
The specialty of the black armored army was that they were good at attacking the enemy's weak points as fast as lightning. They were able to circle around the enemy's back and had high mobility. Although they were light cavalry, the defense of the black armor was far better than the armor of ordinary light cavalry.
Even the elite Turkic cavalry had to retreat upon seeing them. It was not hard to see just how terrifying the black-armored cavalry were.
In his previous life, during the Tang Dynasty, these black-armored cavalry were the emperor's personal guards. They were victorious in every great battle and were even more ferocious and burly than the Turks.
As for the soldiers of the Sui Dynasty, their predecessors were the soldiers of the Wei Dynasty. The soldiers were equipped with heavy armor, spears with Tang swords, bows and crossbows on their backs, and crossbows.
The selection of soldiers was one in ten thousand. Each soldier had terrifying strength and was good at defeating many with fewer people. They were heavy armored infantry.
Although their mobility wasn't high, they were able to face off against an army that was several times stronger than them. Such an army was definitely a trump card.
Yang Ji could be said to have three trump card armies and a terrifying intelligence agency in his hands.
The three trump card armies were the West Navy, the Black Armor Steel Cavalry, the Sui Army, the intelligence agency, and the North, South, and West branches of the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
Yang Ji narrowed his eyes slightly. Then it was time for him to turn the tide.
"Let Li Cunxiao come."
Taking a deep breath, Yang Ji said lightly.
The guards outside the mansion responded and quickly gave the order.
A few moments later, the expressionless Li Cunxiao walked in from outside the residence. After bowing like a ruler, he began to report on the matter of bringing Shibi Khagan to the Turkic tribe.
He chose a good horse with good footwork and sent a soldier to the Turkic tribe alone.
"You did well. This king summoned you because of something else.”
Yang Ji stood up and said.
"Your Highness, what is it?"
Li Cunxiao asked.
"Immediately order Fang Xuanling, who is guarding the West Ocean, to go to Luoyang, the eastern capital. In addition, dispatch 10,000 black-armored cavalrymen and 10,000 Sui soldiers from the four counties of the West Ocean.”
Yang Ji said lightly with his hands behind his back.
Li Cunxiao replied.
If it were an ordinary person, they would probably ask curiously why Fang Xuanling was sent to Luoyang, the eastern capital.
However, Li Cunxiao would not. He was responsible for carrying out the orders of the King of Qin. No doubts were allowed in this process.
Even if he had doubts, he wouldn't probe further.
Even if this order was to send him to his death, it was the same. Only such a person could be considered a loyal person who directly handed his life to Yang Ji.。
"The army is resting and will probably return to Luoyang after today.”
Yang Ji walked out of the mansion with his hands behind his back and looked up at the bright moon in the night sky.
The moon tonight was bright and round. The faint moonlight could even shine through the clouds.
"If it wasn't for the war, the scenery at Yanmen Pass would be quite good.”
Yang Ji smiled.
Although Yanmen Pass was a pass of the Great Sui Dynasty, the scenery here was also unique. It was not like other passes, which revealed a wild and murderous atmosphere. Such a night scene could make people feel relaxed and happy.
