In other words, Yang Jian could not enter Luoyang, and Yu Wenxian could not get out.
If it was possible to put pressure on Yang Jian as a condition, Yu Wenxian would definitely be willing to accept it.
"Our primary target is still Yang Jian." Li Xingchen nodded and said.
In the war against the north, Yang Jian has always been Li Xingchen's primary target. Guanzhong has fertile land and has been the political and economic center of the Northern Zhou Dynasty for a long time. At the same time, most of Yang Jian's subordinates are Han Chinese. If they can absorb this group
Strength will naturally allow Li Xingchen's power to expand on a large scale.
After all, no matter what, if you want to gain a foothold and become stronger in this era, you still need to have enough talents, and the support Li Xinchen currently receives from the Hongnong Yang family and the Longxi Li family is not enough after all, and even among the Longxi Li family
There is only one branch dominated by Li Yuan, who used to belong to Li Hu, and there is also a branch dominated by the Li family from the grassland that is still in the Northern Dynasty.
The head of the family is Li Mu, a veteran who also has great military achievements. Li Mu's ancestor claimed to be the Han general Li Ling. Whether it is true or not, this is a force that cannot be ignored in the Guanlong Group. And Li Mu, who has attached himself to Li Xingchen,
Xun is a descendant of the Li family and Li Mu's nephew.
It is precisely because of such a relationship that the Li family of Li Mu is also the target of all efforts. Of course, in addition to this, there are also the Yu family of Lantian, etc. These large families that historically determined the direction of the entire Sui and Tang Dynasties are
What Li Xingchen needs now.
Therefore, it is far easier and more necessary to capture Yang Jian than to capture Yu Wenxian.
Therefore, joining forces with Yu Wenxian to deal with Yang Jian is indeed a good choice.
"But Yu Wenxian is also from the Zhou Dynasty after all. Will he really join forces with us?" Huang Qi asked still in disbelief.
Yang Su laughed: "Secretary Superintendent is overthinking. We do not regard Yang Jian as a trustworthy partner, and the same is true for Yu Wenxian. For Yu Wenxian, if he loses in our hands, then it will only be in Xianbei
He was defeated by the Han, but if he loses to Yang Jian, then Xianbei will be swallowed up by the Han."
Huang Qi was startled for a moment and probably understood something.
The reason why Yu Wenxian wanted to rebel against Chang'an was not only because of the persecution of Yu Wenyun and Yang Jian, but also because he had seen clearly that Yang Jian was ambitious and he could not really be at peace to do his "Pu Liuru"
"Jian" will surely replace Yu Wenyun sooner or later in the future. Yu Wenyun, who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, is not Yang Jian's opponent at all.
Once Yu Wenyun was replaced by Yang Jian, there would naturally be no more Xianbei and Northern Zhou Dynasty, and the entire Xianbei nation would be replaced by a new dynasty established by the Han people. In this world, the Xianbei people are all vying to become Han people, and even
Without hesitation, Xianbeiization is actually a countercurrent, and its purpose is to barely allow the Xianbei people to maintain their last sense of existence as an independent nation, even if it is just in terms of title and ceremony.
Once this kind of countercurrent is no longer presided over by the Xianbei people, it will naturally disappear without a trace. Where is the name Xianbei in Yu Wenyun and the Guanzhong court now? Even the concubines surrounding Emperor Yu Wen Yun are already Han Chinese
.
For Yu Wenxian, losing to Li Xingchen might mean the destruction of the country, but losing to Yang Jian would mean the annihilation of the entire clan. He obviously knew what was more important, which is why Yu Wenxian had no choice but to know that Li Xingchen was becoming powerful.
They have been concentrating their forces against Yang Jian.
Moreover, both Li Xingchen and Yu Wenxian clearly saw the importance of Yang Jian's small court. This is a big piece of fat. The officials in this court include Han Chinese and Xianbei people. Both Li Xingchen and Yu Wenxian can get their own.
What he wanted, and at the same time, there was Yu Wen Yun, who was at least nominally the emperor of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. If Li Xingchen caught Yu Wen Yun, he could depose the Northern Zhou Dynasty. If Yu Wen Xian caught Yu Wen Yun, he could naturally regain the moral high ground.
It's just that the person guarding this piece of fat is a vicious dog. Since neither of us can eat the meat alone, it's better to join forces and beat the dog first!
"Immediately send someone to Yecheng." Li Xinchen said after careful consideration, "Send orders to the front lines and restrain all the ministries. They cannot start a war with Yu Wenxian!"
After a pause, Li Xingchen then said: "Send someone to tell Xiao Shilian that Nanxiang will send more troops, but they must not be moved lightly. This is a bargaining chip for us to negotiate with Yu Wenxian."
After Huang Qi took the order, Li Xingchen turned his attention to the northwest of the map: "We are having a lively fight here, but to really see what will happen in the end, we still have to watch the progress of the war in the northwest."
"The northwest must be certain. Guanzhong is just something in your majesty's pocket." Yang Su handed over his hand, "Please rest assured, your majesty, our army is now gathered in the northwest, and even a decisive battle with the Turks is not a bad idea. This will only allow Yu Yi to
Tie us tighter."
"I have finished this move. It depends on how Yang Jian will move."
"Report!" At this moment, Li Ping strode in, "Your Majesty, urgent report from Hanzhong!"
Li Xingchen was startled for a moment, and looked at each other with Yang Su, really thinking about whatever he was thinking.
"Yang Jian appointed Liang Rui of Zhuguo as the governor of Liangzhou, led 30,000 troops south to Guanzhong, and then turned to the northwest." Li Xingchen glanced at it and couldn't help but murmured, "It's getting more and more interesting."
"It turned out to be Liang Rui. Wei Chen thought it was Li Mu."
"Li Xun is in Xiangyang, and Yang Jian will not let Li Mu move." Li Xunchen said lightly, "The relationship between uncle and nephew is here, and Yang Jian is not stupid."
Yang Su frowned slightly: "Liang Rui is also a veteran in the court, and Yu Yi was once her subordinate. Yang Jian's arrangement is not so much to add reinforcements to the northwest, but rather to distrust Yu Yi and simply let Liang Rui
Situated in the northwest, no matter how the wings are turned, at least it will not threaten the security of Guanzhong."
This Liang Rui was also a veteran general with outstanding merits in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Over the years, many generals in the Northern Zhou Dynasty came from his command. In history, after Yang Jian became the prime minister, King Qian of Shu rebelled and hijacked eight tribes of Ba people.
With great momentum, it was Liang Rui who led his troops into Shu and put down the rebellion, which laid the foundation for Yang Su to build warships in Shu and attack Chen eastward.
Yang Jian sent Liang Rui here with obvious intentions.
Even if Li Xingchen lets his horse come over, he would rather have his arms cut off than to close the gate to the northwest of Guanzhong.
As for the Lantian Yu family, this in itself is also a test for them. If the Lantian Yu family still wants to be loyal to the Great Zhou Dynasty, then Yang Jian will be able to accept them when the time comes. After all, Liang Rui is also Yu Yi's old boss, and if they
Even if they rebel, Yang Jian will not lose control of Xiaoguan because of them.
"Absolutely ruthless." Yang Su sighed with emotion.
Really worthy of Yang Jian.
"This has done us a favor. At least the Yu family in Lantian has fewer and fewer choices." Li Xingchen said lightly. (To be continued)
