In May of the ninth year of Daye, the city walls of Liaodong once again became a slaughterhouse of flesh and blood. The Sui army and the Goguryeo garrison resisted each other for more than 20 days. Corpses accumulated above and below the city, and blood flowed into rivers. Both armies suffered heavy casualties.
Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty once again started his creative engineering journey, but this time he did not live for himself. He dug a mountain with a columbine higher than the city tower, trying to build a Yuliang Avenue, overlooking the city, and connected it with tunnels.
city.
This attitude of risking one's life gradually made Goguryeo feel helpless.
At this time, Wang Rengong, the doctor of Zuo Guanglu, led his army to attack Xincheng. In the field battle, he defeated tens of thousands of Goguryeo troops and surrounded Xincheng. They faced another difficult siege battle.
At this time, the army led by Yu Wenshu and Yang Yichen was still marching hard on the road to Pyongyang.
This division of troops also caused the Sui army to lose the opportunity to capture Liaodong City in one fell swoop.
Shandong people are still using the most violent method to resist the tyranny of the Sui Dynasty.
After Zhang Xutuo defeated the bandit army, he gradually became famous and became one of the most useful firefighters in the Sui Dynasty.
Henan also gradually began to be in chaos. The Wagang army was so full of looting that their numbers continued to grow.
Lianghuai also began to be affected by the war in Shandong and gradually became chaotic. After many Shandong rebels were defeated, they fled to Lianghuai, providing the best reference and rebellion experience for the heroes of Lianghuai.
In the northwest of the Sui Dynasty, war smoke was everywhere. The army led by Bai Yusuo, which numbered more than 100,000, began to plan an attack on the important areas of Xiliang.
What is even more frightening is that Yang Xuangan, Minister of Civil Affairs, who was the general manager of logistics in the Sui Dynasty, finally felt that an opportunity had come and began to gather people and prepare for an uprising.
This was the first important official in the court during the Sui Dynasty. Distinguished disciples rebelled against the Sui Dynasty. His influence was immeasurable.
He also represents that the war in the late Sui Dynasty entered a new stage.
Since then, people's minds in the Sui Dynasty have been separated and never reunited..`
The ensuing wars and peasant uprisings were completely reduced to supporting roles, and those who joined in were the ones who really wanted to fight for world supremacy.
They do not seek food and clothing, but only wealth and honor. As the saying goes, if Qin loses its deer, the whole world will chase it away.
……………………
A few days after Li Po was assassinated, Yan Lu and Li Chun finally arrived at Yunnei County.
Li Chun is different from Li Bi. Li Bi has been ambitious since she was a child. Later, she was taught by Li Jing to run in the direction of taking the lead. Therefore, in terms of personality, both internally and externally, she is tough and not very good at expressing female emotions.
Already.
As for Li Chun, he can cry and laugh, and looks more like an ordinary person. However, because he has suffered a lot, he is obviously soft on the outside and strong on the inside.
When I arrived in Yunnei, I saw my eldest brother lying on the bed unable to move. He cried a few times and blamed himself very much.
Because she followed Yuen Long to Canghe Racecourse to participate in the horse racing meeting. This horse racing meeting is undoubtedly a grand event at Mayi Ranch. When Shi Qian was here, it was always held at Yun Nei Racecourse.
First, sacrifices were made to the horse god, and then the people from each racecourse held a comprehensive competition and exchange of various events, ranging from knowledge to the horses raised.
The racecourse that wins overall will get the right to host the next Jockey Club.
At that time, not only Mayi Racecourse will participate. Yanmen Racecourse will also send people over, and it will be hosted by Mayi Jiacao. It will be a truly joyful trip.
Since Yun Nei Racecourse went through a series of changes, the right to host the Jockey Club was taken away by Canghe Racecourse. This time Yuen Long wanted to take it back, so he personally brought many people to attend the Jockey Club.
Li Chun also went along and had a great time. Yuen Long also got his wish. With the profound knowledge and background of Yun Nei Racecourse, he successfully won the championship. By the way, he also took back the glory that belongs to Yun Nei Racecourse.
But now Li Chun couldn't be happy anymore, because she went to Canghe Racecourse and dragged Yan Lu to Yunnei Racecourse. When Li Po was assassinated, the danger doubled. 8 novel w?ww.`
This kind of cause and effect is quite reasonable. Even Li Po regrets that he sent out a very good thug and had to do it himself, and even suffered a beating.
Not to mention Li Chun, whose originally cheerful temperament suddenly turned gloomy. She couldn't help it. Ever since she followed Li Po, the word "eldest brother" was extremely sacred in her heart. Who would have thought
If she moves, she will fight to the death with whomever she wants.
When Li Chun came over, he completely took over Li Po's eating, drinking, toileting, and sleeping.
Li Bi was relieved. She didn't want the other women to hang around Li Po, and she was afraid that the man wouldn't take good care of her, so she kept running back and forth between Yunnei and Heng'an.
I feel relieved this time. Li Po’s girl is such a restless person.
No matter what the two girls think, the Yanlu people are relatively proud anyway. Look, if a certain family is not here, you will be stabbed, right?
If I were here, it would take so much trouble to kill one, kill two, and kill a pair. None of them could escape. It wouldn't be a big deal if there were more than ten or twenty people. It would be better for you. You only killed a dozen people, so you can do it yourself.
Lying down, it's really incomparable to me.
Li Po felt more uncomfortable. When Li Bi walked around him, he didn't feel lonely when you said something to me. Li Chun, he had always taken care of him. This time he changed his position and he was a little uncomfortable with it.
That day, while Li Chun was feeding him, he gave Li Chun some psychological treatment. He had no choice but to worry about this girl. She forced herself to smile in front of him all day long. You said you weren't a big kid?
, when it’s time to play, when it’s time to eat, why are you so worried?
"Chun'er, you have to practice hard. Don't be perfunctory. If you have half the skills of your master, no one can get close to your big brother, don't you think?"
Li Chun nodded fiercely. At this moment, Li Po asked her to pick up the moon. She had to try it with a ladder to see if she could climb up to the sky, communicate with Chang'e, and ask her to move to another house...
"That's it, you're not very capable now, so what can you do if you stay with me? Maybe your elder brother will be stabbed a few more times, don't think so much, your elder brother is not dead yet, you are needed
A little person is here to worry about it?"
Li Chun's golden bean came as soon as he came, and said with choked sobs: "Brother, I just feel that I am growing too slowly, so I can't help you much, and... I always do the wrong things..."
"Okay, okay, it's really pointless if you grow slowly. Why do you think so much about something that you can't help? In the words of your master, after a few years, as long as you have a sword in your hand, you can't kill gods and Buddhas.
Wait for your business."
"When your elder brother has more people, I will send people to Jiangnan and get you some masters who are good at using swords, so that Yan Sanlang will not be too proud..."
"Well, by the way, we were collecting taxes some time ago, and there seemed to be two swords in the goods. When we return to Heng'an Town, we can pick the good one for you."
Li Chun burst into laughter, which is a sign of successful psychotherapy.
"If it's a good sword, it's better to give it to the master. Xiaochun's apprenticeship ceremony hasn't been given yet. How can a disciple use a good thing and the master is jealous of it?"
"Well, I know that respecting teachers is a good thing. But speaking of it, we still need to read books and practice calligraphy. We are not allowed to relax. After all, the places we can go in this life are limited, and we can only hear so much.
If you want to know more, you have to read and learn, you know?"
Li Chun's little face immediately became bitter. Like many people, when he couldn't read a book, he was envious when he saw others reading and literacy. When he really wanted to pick up a book, he got bored in a few days, because reading and literacy is all about reading.
A rather boring process.
Li Po here wants to turn Li Chun into an all-rounder in both civil and military affairs.
Li Jing was also worried about his daughter. He sent a letter to Jinyang to express his anger to the Wang family in Jinyang and also wanted to ask the murderer to come back.
The nobles of Guanxi have never been afraid of people from Jin.
Moreover, the assassination of an army general is of a very bad nature. How can it be done without seeing the murderer's head?
However, the big boss of Jin also has the dignity of the big boss of Jin. In early June, he wrote back to Li Jing, just a few words, saying that there was absolutely no such thing, and he hoped that Li Juncheng would investigate carefully.
The condescending and arrogant meaning was clearly visible on the paper. Li Jing looked at it and just sneered without any other expression.
It is true that he cannot move behemoths like the Jinyang Wang family now, but this does not mean that he will not be able to move them in the future.
After serving as an official for so many years, Li Jing has already clearly understood the meaning of a gentleman's revenge being never too late.
Moreover, he has clearly smelled the coming of troubled times.
As if to verify the accuracy of his feeling, in June, Yang Xuangan, the Minister of Rites, raised troops in Liyang.
This was the beginning of the great chaos in Henan. Yang Xuangan first sent a false edict to station troops in Donglai. Lai Hu'er, who had already set out, led his army to rebel, and ordered soldiers from all over the country to Liyang to send troops to attack Lai Hu'er.
Yang Xuangan was the son of Yang Su. His family had been prominent for generations and he was a highly respected official. He had a great reputation in the world, and many aristocratic children of the Sui Dynasty came to join him.
After arriving in Liyang, Yang Xuangan told everyone that Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty was fatuous and immoral. He wanted to raise an army to depose Yang Guang and establish a new emperor to save the people of the world from disaster. So he coerced everyone and raised an army to rebel.
At this time, Pu Shanggong Li Mi offered the famous three strategies of upper, middle and lower, and Yang Xuangan took the lower strategy without any surprise.
Of course, this is not actually how stupid Yang Xuangan is, but Li Mi's strategy. Only the third strategy looks decent.
In fact, it was just a question of the direction of march. The first was to go north and occupy Hebei in order to cut off the return of the Liaodong army. Needless to say, this strategy went without saying. Going to a place like Hebei would be a waste of Yang Xuangan's status and family background.
Only in places like Luoyang and Chang'an, Yang Xuangan's family background can bring about the most significant results. If Luoyang and Chang'an are left alone and he goes north to Hebei, he will definitely be besieged from all sides.
Zhongce was actually even more outrageous. He traveled thousands of miles from Liyang to Chang'an to attack the fortified city of Chang'an. On the way, there were world-famous passes such as Tongguan and Hangu blocking the road. The people who gathered in a hurry were pursued by Luoyang soldiers and horses, so they probably didn't leave.
By the time we got there, it was already a complete failure.
Moreover, Yang Xuangan's family background is indeed very good, and his reputation is not low, but it is far from the time when he can be responded to by a hundred people.
Therefore, the only option is to attack Luoyang and gain Luoyang's grain, rice and population as the foundation, and then conquer the world.
