The Sui Dynasty has already entered the era of Yang Guang. After Yang Guang put down Yang Liang's rebellion, carried out military examinations, imperial examinations, moved the capital, reorganized the system, military reforms, punished illegal and dutiful officials, established the Xiaoguo Army, etc., he was the emperor. It is very stable. In addition, the fourteen supervisors include the five governors of Yang Zhao, Yang Ji, Yang Zhiji, Yang Lun, and Yang Jing, and the nine confidant governors such as Dugu Kai, Shi Wansui, Liu Fang, and Li Zixiong, so now almost no one can It's time to shake Yang Guang's position.
However, the Guanlong nobles not only did not behave with their tails between their legs, but also jumped out from time to time to tease him and his confidants, which made Yang Guang extremely uncomfortable; for example, just now, the Daye Emperor happily settled in the north Yang Ji was mentioned in the plan of patrolling, but Zhang Jin, Yuan Shou, Li Zhongwen, Yu Wenbi, Yu Zhongwen, Xin Shixiong and other leaders of the Guanlong nobles jumped out one after another.
First, Zhang Jinsheng was afraid that the Guanlong nobles would not have the opportunity to take bribes. He repeatedly emphasized that "first eat the people, and then the court tax exemption" is an ancient law. What he means is that the ancient law cannot be violated. Immediately afterwards, because of the argument that "a copy of the list of officials selected by the official assessment should be copied to King Wei, and if he thinks it is inappropriate, he will reject it." Yuan Shou jumped out of the yin and yang and said that the battlefield in the eastern part of Tuyuhun was not over yet, so he should not be too optimistic. Murong Fuyun may make a comeback at any time.
In fact, Yang Ji had not yet destroyed Tuyuhun, so Yuan Shou's argument was not wrong; but Yang Guang knew Yuan Shou's underlying intentions very well: First, he did not want Yang Ji to gain the power to appoint and remove officials from the Ministry of Civil Affairs and make decisions. The second is to downplay Yang Ji's achievements; the third is that they still have illusions about the military achievements in the eastern battlefield. After all, Tuyuhun has exhausted its potential by now, and Daxing is not far from Fuqi City. If Yuan Yuan is allowed to fight at this time, Longevity is a general and a commander, and he can still make it in time for this war, and he may even get the great merit of capturing the enemy chief alive. And this is what Li Zhongwen, Yu Wenbi, Yu Zhongwen, Xin Shixiong and others value most.
These dog-like things are just short of proposing to change generals and commanders before the battle, and send the noble generals of Guanlong to lead the troops to pick peaches.
Thinking of this, Yang Guang's face turned gloomy for a moment, and he felt a sense of irritability and coldness in his heart.
Before his military reform, the Binzhou Army in the Beijing army and the county officials behind the scenes colluded with the bandits in Ziwu Mountain to cause trouble to the local area, robbed passing merchants, and repeatedly used the collusion between soldiers and bandits, officials and bandits to deal with civilians. The rebel army, and the Wannian Army rebelled directly in Guanzhong. In addition, the major "cao gangs" in Bashang who were controlled by the Guanlong nobles frequently killed people, expropriated goods, and killed entire families.
If he hadn't been inspired by Yang Ji's military reform in Liangzhou and carried out a vigorous reform of the Beijing soldiers, the Guanlong nobles would have been able to use the "700,000 Beijing soldiers" alone by taking short quotas and taking The way the soldiers were paid and drank their blood shook the army's loyalty to the Sui Dynasty. At that time, the Sui Dynasty, even if it was not replaced like the Northern Zhou Dynasty, was still severely damaged.
Fortunately, all these huge hidden dangers were exposed in advance because of Yang Ji. However, if the core forces such as the Guanlong nobles are not removed, the Sui Dynasty will eventually be in danger.
And just when Yang Guang thought about the fierceness, the magnificent, spacious and empty Zhonghua Palace was also plunged into a strange atmosphere due to the joint efforts of the heads of the Guanlong nobles to "force the palace". At this moment, the person on duty General Zhige hurriedly walked into the hall with a guard and reported loudly: "To the saint, Liangzhou Mu and King Wei have sent 800 miles to urgent military information!"
The eight-hundred-mile rush means that the messenger has to run eight hundred miles in one day and night. This is naturally not impossible, but there must be complete post stations along the way, and war horses must be prepared in the stations for the messenger to change. This cannot be done even for a moment. Delay, this is mainly used to convey important urgent military information.
This urgent military information came very timely. It immediately eased the tense atmosphere in the palace and diverted Yang Guang's attention. He waved his hand and said to Zhang Jin, Yuan Shou and others: "Please return to the train. Let’s discuss what was said later.”
"I obey!" Zhang Jin, Yuan Shou and others breathed a sigh of relief, and when they came back to their senses, they realized that during this solemn moment, their inner clothes were actually wet with sweat.
Yang Guang ignored them and ordered to General Zhige: "Send us the military information."
"General, I obey!" General Zhige took the foot-high package from the guard and walked quickly to Dan Bi. Yang An, who was already prepared, untied the package with his hands.
Yang An saw that there were many cowhide envelopes inside. Except for the top one, which was alone, the letters below were tied together with ribbons, so he picked them up with both hands and handed them to Yang Guang.
Yang Guang knew that the following was a private message from Yang Ji to him, and that the top one was the military information. He immediately took the military information and unfolded it on the imperial case. After reading it hastily, he suddenly slammed the table with a "bang". All the civil and military officials present were shocked. What happened?
Could it be that Yang Ji was defeated?
"Beautiful!" The contents of the military report made Yang Guang ecstatic. The dissatisfaction caused by the head of the Guanlong noble family was forgotten by him. Everyone heard the word "beautiful" and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It looked like it should be Good news.
Even Zhang Jin, Yuan Shou and others felt that Yang Ji's good news came too timely. If Yang Ji failed, the already angry emperor might take it out on them.
Yang Xiong was an extremely attentive person. When he saw the emperor, he was happy and smiling. He knew that what the emperor wanted to do most at this moment was to share the joy in his heart, so he rushed out of the queue first and asked in a loud voice: "Sage, I don't know about the military information from King Wei. What kind of good news is this? Can you tell me about it? So that I can rejoice with the saints and saints."
"Three nights ago, our Sui army threatened Fuqi City. The defenders of the west city of Tuyuhun were afraid of our Sui army's power and bombed the camp. In the east city, Zhangye's general manager Zhang Xutuo, Xipingdao marching general manager Liang Yuanli and others burned the enemy troops. The defenders, including Prince Murong Shun of Tuyuhun and King Dabao Niluo Zhou, were all burned to death. At the same time, Yang Yichen, the general manager of the Chuihe Road March, and Zhou Faming, the general manager of the Lintao Road March, suppressed the Nancheng defenders until they could not move. The next morning, Liangzhou The troops from all walks of life and the Yizhou Army, Murong Zhao Army, and Dangxiang Army attacked Fuqi City... and wiped out all the remaining Tuyuhun soldiers. Murong Fuyun, the great Khan of Tuyuhun, saw that the situation was unstoppable and committed suicide in the palace. Now Tuyuhun is I am a Sui Dynasty." When Yang Guang said this, he couldn't help laughing: "Haha, haha... Before King Wei left Luoyang, he also said that Tuyuhun had many generals and great strength, and asked me to give him a It took years to fight this war. However, when I deduced it with him, I thought that Tuyuhun would not be able to support it for long, but King Wei did not believe it. Now it seems that although King Wei led the Sui army and annihilated Tuyuhun with thunderous force, He displayed great power in the Great Sui Dynasty, but he still underestimated the combat effectiveness of my great Sui army..."
Yang Guang almost died laughing when he said this.
Just as he said, before he "forced" Yang Ji to go to Liangzhou to fight, the brothers did conduct a military training exercise in the palace. He thought that Tuyuhun could not last for a quarter, but Yang Ji insisted on fighting. After one year, the entire Tuyuhun could be captured. The two expressed their opinions and argued, and began to engage in gambling. Whoever loses has to write a poem to the other person.
Now it seems that Yang Ji is a little younger after all, and after all, he is still far inferior to him as a master.
well! That boy really embarrassed him. Yang Guang was a little embarrassed to say that Yang Ji was his apprentice. It seemed that he would have to educate him more strictly in the future to prevent him from continuing to be embarrassed.
Hearing this, all the civil and military officials praised Yang Guang for his strategizing and decisive victory thousands of miles away, his keen eye for recognizing talents, and he was a worthy god of military and war. Yang Xiong added: "It is also because the saint used his people properly, otherwise our army would not have achieved such a glorious victory in such a short period of time."
"Brother Wang, what you said is wrong. This great victory was all due to the bloody battle led by King Wei and the generals. I am far away in the center, so how can I get any credit!" Although Yang Guang was narcissistic and happy, he was not confused. ; In the future, he will definitely "taunt" and spur Yang Ji in private, but in front of outsiders, he will never deny Yang Ji.
With that said, Yang Guang said to Yang Xiong: "I also want to congratulate Brother Wang. King Wei said in the military newspaper that Tuyuhun General Tuoba Yuan led five or six thousand elite troops to kill Murong Yong and Murong Xiaojun in a place called Yema Town. , Jing You (also known as Yang Shidao) not only led his army to defeat this enemy army, but also personally beheaded Tuoba Yuan during the battle. Haha, it seems that our royal family will have another general who is both civil and military. "
Yang Xiong was overjoyed when he heard this and said quickly: "Jing You regards King Wei as a role model. He is extremely stubborn. The old minister simply threw him to King Wei for instruction, but he did not expect that he could also kill thieves and perform meritorious deeds."
All the ministers felt sour. After hearing the saint's words, Yang Xiong's son also came into the saint's sight.
There will definitely be a bright future in the future!
"Congratulations to the saint, congratulations to the great Sui Dynasty!" After the ministers listened to the conversation between Yang Guang and Yang Xiong, the hall was filled with people and noisy voices. Su Wei felt regretful in his heart. He had offended his wife because of Yang Ji. Because of many people, he forcibly transferred his grandson Su Qua from Yang Ji's command. If he had known this, he should have forced his grandson to give up martial arts and join politics. Otherwise, his grandson would have been able to stand out in this battle.
Gao Jun also cupped his hands and said, "I congratulate you, the saint, and the great Sui Dynasty!"
"I congratulate the saint and congratulate the Great Sui!"
"I congratulate the saint and congratulate the Great Sui!"
Pei Ju and others shouted. However, while the ministers were in high spirits, they couldn't help but look at Yuan Shou with a strange look.
Yuanshou was completely dumbfounded at this moment. His expression had changed and he was dumbfounded. He could hardly believe his ears. When he found that the ministers in the palace were looking at him one after another, he felt as if a knife had been cut on his face, which made him burning. of pain.
Tuyuhun actually ended, Murong Fuyun actually committed suicide, and what he just talked about so eloquently, didn't it all become a joke now?
Zhang Jin, who was standing next to him, saw that his friend's face was green and red, and looked extremely ugly, and he sighed secretly in his heart. At this moment, he couldn't protect himself, and he didn't know how to help out.
Yu Wenbi, Li Zhongwen, Yu Zhongwen, Xin Shixiong and others faced Yuan Shou's help-seeking eyes, and they all lowered their heads silently, staring at the carpet under their feet, as if it had the most beautiful patterns in the world.
