(This chapter is a bit short, sorry.`)
There was some deviation from Li Po's expectation. Zhang Shujie was about to die and did not admit that he was defeated and captured, but was released by the enemy.
Shibi Khan did not delve into it.
Because the family Zhang Shujie was born into has always been submissive, the royal court also needed these characters to decorate its appearance and make the Turkic king's account look more graceful.
Therefore, the Turkic Khans of all generations would treat them very tolerantly... This is really an extremely lucky guy.
And the status of the Heng'an Town Army in Yunnei in the mind of Shibi Khan has risen to a new level.
Because Mayi City has persisted to this day, Shibi Khan's patience had to become longer.
The two initial strategic goals of the Turks' southward movement have not yet been achieved, and the Turks have to spend more time in Mayi County.
In other words, the two cities in Mayi County, one in the south and one in the north, completely hindered the Turks from going south.
This is obviously something that neither the Turks nor the people in Mayi County have thought of.
The consequences are also obvious.
When the battle report reached Jinyang and Li Yuan, the Duke of Tang Dynasty, was staying here, the whole of Taiyuan felt like it was facing a formidable enemy, because everyone knew that Mayi and Yanmen were unlikely to stop the Turks' horseshoes.`
Taiyuan is naturally open to the public and will face an attack by the Turks many years later.
Li Yuan, who was left behind in Taiyuan, summoned everyone for consultation. At this moment, the situation in Jinyang City was actually very delicate.
The deputy envoy left behind in Taiyuan, Prince Wei of Taiyuan County, who took office in the twelfth year of Daye's reign, was a distant relative of the Wang family in Jinyang. He had good relationships with dignitaries in the eastern capital, which created certain constraints on Li Yuan who stayed behind in Taiyuan.
Moreover, he and Wu Yalang made good friends with Gao Junya, which greatly increased the threat to Li Yuan.
At the beginning of the thirteenth year of Daye, Luoyang, the eastern capital, and Chang'an, the western capital, were in emergency, and Li Yuan, who was left behind in Taiyuan, became a favorite immediately.
Letters requesting rescue from the Taiyuan soldiers filled the desk of Li Yuan who was left behind in Taiyuan.
At this time, the civil and military forces in Jinyang were actually divided into two factions.
People led by Wang Wei and Gao Junya were urging Li Yuan to attack the eastern capital to annihilate the traitor Li Mi. For this reason, Wang Wei even secretly ordered Gao Junya to capture Liu Wenjing, the commander of Jinyang, and put him in prison.
Because Liu Wenjing and Li Mi's family are said to be related by marriage, and this old score was dug up in the 13th year of Daye. Liu Wenjing is a proud person who never takes Wang Wei and others in his eyes. During his tenure in Jinyang, he offended
There are quite a few people.`
Secondly, Liu Wenjing made good friends with Pei Ji and others. The Pei family is now fighting fiercely with the Wang family in Jin Dynasty, and has made friends with Li Yuan, who stayed in Taiyuan. Whether it is jealousy, jealousy, or political considerations, Liu Wenjing is like this
All the guys are on the list of eradication.
Third, this is another political group that is gradually forming in Jinyang City showing its power and indirectly putting pressure on Li Yuan.
The other group of people, however, included Li Shimin, the Pei clan of Hedong, Changsun Shunde, the representative of the Changsun clan of Luoyang, and the horse thief Liu Hongji. They wanted to go to Chang'an, the Xijing, where the military strength was empty and the political environment was more favorable to Li Yuan.
The two parties were almost evenly matched. There is no doubt that Li Shimin and others were indeed involved in this overt and covert struggle. They failed to gain any advantage. Otherwise, Liu Wenjing would not have been imprisoned.
It can be said that these figures that Li Shimin has good relations with today can only be regarded as an emerging political group in Jinyang. They are generally relatively young and have certain talents, but they have not yet become famous.
They did not gain any advantage in the confrontation with Wang Wei and others, and they could not shake the status and foundation of the Jinyang Wang family.
The most important point is that Li Yuan, who was left behind in Taiyuan, was still patiently waiting for the opportunity and said nothing about the fight below. Jinyang Order Liu Wenjing has also been detained in Jinyang Prison.
The news of the Turks going south obviously broke this balance, and the battle in Jinyang City suddenly became fierce. People on both sides were asking each other to recruit troops. Because of the large gathering of refugees in Jinyang City, recruiting troops was actually not difficult.
, Li Yuan has never dared to expand his army aggressively, just because he was hampered by food and fodder.
Gao Junya was secretly ordered by Wang Wei to recruit 20,000 troops. Li Shimin and others did not dare to follow suit, so they asked for orders to expand the army to prepare for war, and then recruited more than 30,000 troops.
It was as if Taiyuan was going to have an internal strife before the Turks reached the city.
At this time, Li Yuan could not sit still.
Then, a famous historical event happened. He and Pei Ji drank wine and stayed at Jinyang Palace.
It’s not clear what really happened, but there were rumors in Jinyang that the two got drunk in the palace and even hired a palace maid to accompany them.
Of course, with the character of these two people, they might actually do it.
It's just that rumors are rumors after all, and no one has witnessed it with their own eyes. As for where the rumors came from, they can only be written by later generations. The truth has long been buried in private rooms, and no one dares to explore such truth.
Li Yuan was furious after hearing the rumors, and directly targeted Taiyuan County Prime Minister Wang Wei and others.
Then he ordered Taiyuan County Prime Minister Wang Wei, Gao Junya and others to lead troops to Fenyang Palace to garrison, and simply drove them out of Jinyang City.
At the end of February, the Taiyuan garrison greatly expanded its troops, reaching 80,000 troops. Liu Wenjing was also released. In an instant, she became a frequent visitor to Taiyuan's residence and a confidant of Taiyuan's Li Yuan.
Taiyuan County Prime Minister Wang Wei and others were unwilling to give up, so Wang Wei sent letters to several people. These people were all Jinyang officials and could speak well in front of Li Yuan. Among them was a guy named Warrior Yan.
At this time, drought was already apparent in the northern part of Jin, so someone advised Li Yuan to go to the Jin Temple to pray for rain to calm the hearts of the people.
The delay of the Turks' arrival gave the people of Jinyang a lot of time, and the commotion was dizzying. However, this actually also shows that Jin has generally settled down at this time. Compared with other areas, Jin
The people here are actually quite happy.
As long as there is another year of delay, the strength of the Jin Dynasty will be even higher. In fact, this is one of the reasons why Li Yuan has been reluctant to launch troops. He is waiting for the autumn harvest of the thirteenth year of Daye.
It's a pity that time has passed, and the great cause has still not given anyone a chance to breathe after thirteen years.
Li Yuan, who had been frugal for more than half a year, finally became fierce, perhaps due to disappointment.
As the saying goes, those who achieve great things do not plan for the public. It has long been exposed that Taiyuan County Prime Minister Wang Wei and Wu Yalang General Gao Junya wanted to attack Li Yuan who stayed in Taiyuan at the Jinci Temple.
Whether it was the samurai Yan or some township chief who tipped off the secret, it actually doesn't matter. What's important is that Wang Wei and Gao Junya, who had planned to take Li Yuan's head, were captured in one fell swoop at Jinci Temple.
Later, Li Yuan, who stayed in Taiyuan, accused the two of communicating with Turks and leading the Turks to go south. They were executed on the spot, and purges followed.
As heads fell one after another, Li Yuan, who was left behind in Taiyuan, also completely severed his ties with Dongdu or Jiangdu, and no longer obeyed any orders.
