Since the Xuanwu Gate Incident, Li Jiancheng's path to status has been unimpeded.
After entering the palace to meet Li Yuan that day, Li Yuan issued an order the next day to order Li Jiancheng to supervise the country, while he was not in charge of government affairs due to physical reasons.
Three months later, Li Jiancheng was officially granted the Zen position.
During the three months when Li Jiancheng (Chengqian) was the prince and supervising the country, Cihang Jingzhai, Yuwen clan and Dugu were ordered by him under the guise of Li Yuan. extinguish
It is worth mentioning that Dugu Feng, the legitimate daughter of the Dugu Clan, was originally killed because of this, but because Li Jiancheng (Cheng Qian) wanted her to stop before the battle, she was not pursued. After Li Jiancheng ascended the throne, she was given the title of concubine. .
At the same time, those who were conferred include Cihang Jingzhai’s master Feixuan, Shengjiao’s Hanwan, the world-famous talented girl Shi Qingxuan, Pegasus ranch owner Shang Xiuxun, Dongming sect’s heir Shan Wanjing and others. It can be said that all the famous beauties in the Tang Dynasty were collected into the harem.
After Li Jiancheng came to the throne, he began to carry out drastic reforms. Due to the fact that the domestic elites and conservative forces suffered heavy losses due to his identity as a serious worker, he later used the Xuanwu Gate Incident to clean up a number of them, allowing the reforms to proceed smoothly. .
Li Tang has recovered his strength under his several years of governance.
So Li Jiancheng began to clean up the hostile forces around Datang. He first destroyed the Eastern Turks in a battle, and then destroyed the Western Turks and Tuhun Valley, and brought the vast grassland to Central Asia under the rule of the Tang Dynasty.
Later, due to Goguryeo's special geographical location and weather climate (because Goguryeo is located in Liaodong, winter will be their biggest weapon. For those who don't know, you can refer to the Soviet Union during World War II), they were unable to exert their strong military advantage and could not fight for a long time. Li Jiancheng (Cheng Qian) listened to Su Lie (Su Dingfang)'s strategic policy and used guerrilla tactics, mainly with a small number of elite soldiers, to constantly harass Goguryeo.
That is to say, they will plunder your village or city today, destroy your rice fields and granaries tomorrow, and consume Goguryeo's war potential. (This is the strategy adopted by Li Shimin and Li Zhi in history)
After all, Goguryeo was a small country. How could it endure such hardships? After three years of continuous attacks from the Tang Dynasty, it finally couldn't hold on any longer.
Li Jiancheng directly took Su Lie as the marshal and led an army of 200,000. It took less than three months to destroy Goguryeo, and also destroyed the two small countries below Goguryeo, Baekje and Silla.
During this period, Japan once sent troops to rescue Baekje, but they were defeated by the Tang army and returned.
It also reminded Li Jiancheng that there was a neighbor "within a strip of water" on the other side of the sea, so he would form an expeditionary force to help the people of the small island who were still in a slave society enter the embrace of the Tang Dynasty.
Then Li Jiancheng knew that he could not truly build a strong empire with martial arts alone, and he also needed civil rule.
Since the beginning of the twenty-year civil rule, agriculture, commerce, industry, science and technology, and culture have been fully developed. The population has also grown explosively in these twenty years, surpassing that before the turmoil in the late Sui Dynasty.
The demographic dividend made Datang's world as stable as Mount Tai, and the emergence of a large number of new talents made the country develop rapidly.
Just when people in the world thought that General Li Chengqian would achieve great things again at the time when he was getting stronger and stronger, he announced his abdication to the Crown Prince Li Chengzong, and then formally handed the throne to the Crown Prince during the throne passing ceremony, and then truly left in the void. The temple name is "Holy Ancestor".
-------I am the dividing line--------
In the miserable Donghua Mountain, it seems that another innate person is about to appear, and people within a hundred miles will be affected. The auspicious clouds appear in the sky, seeming to celebrate this person's achievements.
In the Zi Mansion, Gui You and others who had been waiting for a long time saw this movement and knew that their master was about to leave the seclusion, so they came to the Shaoyang Lord's retreat room to wait.
I saw all the power of heaven and earth emerging here, strong winds, thunder, fire, floods, the power of nature all appeared in front of everyone, and everyone who saw it was often amazed.
However, when approaching Shaoyang Jun's retreat, it turned into silent and pure spiritual power to help those inside.
Then there was a loud noise, and Lord Shaoyang came out of seclusion with the vision of heaven and earth.
After two lifetimes of accumulation, Lord Shaoyang of the Purple Mansion of Donghua finally broke through the innate realm in the midst of suffering, and was completely different from most warriors in this world.
When everyone saw Lord Shaoyang, they all congratulated him: "Congratulations, lord, on your success. You have set foot on the innate world, and you will definitely have a place in the future in misery."
Lord Shaoyang heard the compliments from everyone and said with a smile: "Ha, I understand your loyalty. If I succeed in my future hegemony, I will definitely not treat you badly."
Then he named them: "Gui You, Tong Huang, and Chou Kong Ming."
"My subordinate is here!"
"Reporting on the information about the misery, Miao territory and Dongwulin as well as the current situation of the organization during my seclusion period."
Guiyou, who was the leader of the crowd, was the first to speak: "Yes, to report back to my lord, the world is currently in a period of chaos. With his special martial arts and super cultivation, he has made the current martial arts world miserable. Lord Shang even died in the battle at Haijing Island, and one page of the book subsequently disappeared. Su Huanzhen was forced to join the Mo Kui camp, taking the alias Huajue Bailiansheng, and secretly helping the righteous path."
Upon hearing this, Lord Shaoyang knew that the martial arts world was currently in a period of domination by the devil, but soon the situation would change again.
Thoreau of the Dragon Pavilion, who was released due to the destruction of Xuandu, will unseal the Dragon King Qi to fight against the Demon King. Later, he will return as the creator of the world and spread his own way of creation.
After that, the demon world’s martial god Zhan Hai was born and the Heavenly Demon Record was unsealed.
The first of the seven ancient catastrophes - the fusion of Buddha and demons, and the bloodbath of the world will begin.
After knowing the current situation of Jianghu, it is time to pay attention to the current situation of the forces formed by his own incarnation.
First, regarding the Miao Territory, under the leadership of Cang Yue Gu Ming as the main leader, supplemented by the three heroes of the Miao Territory (Heaven and Earth Intolerable, Divine Gu Wen Huang, Qian Xue Gu Ming), King Beijing and other powerful generals and wise men, the work has been roughly completed. The only obstacle to the unification of Eastern Miao and Central Miao was the remnants of the Yiliu black sect that was forced into Western Miao by Mu Shaoaiwo and Zhonglie Wang Huzheng on the way to conquer Western Miao. .
The Yiliu Black Sect's poison poison technique caused some obstacles to Miao's advance, but it was still not enough in front of the two masters of poison medicine, Divine Gu Wenhuang and Qianxue Guming.
Finally, a close friend of the former Yiliu leader Nangong Shenyi, Awakening Evil, came forward to reach an agreement with Tie Su Qiuyi, the commander of the Iron Army Guards. Miaojiang would demarcate a piece of territory under its rule for the Yiliu Black Sect to cultivate its vitality, but As a price, those who awaken the evil must join the Miao Territory, and Yiliu will be subordinate to the Miao Territory in the future. If there is a king's order, the people in the sect must be at their disposal.
At this point, the Miao territory has been unified. Except for the fact that the mountains in the territory have become densely populated due to its rapid expansion, many tribes have appeared to listen to the propaganda but not the instructions. For example, the tribe in the sky is too strong and cannot be completely conquered. Gu Ming Yi Mai was only the nominal co-leader of the Miao territory.
But with the development of time, the nominal unification of Miao territory also caused the dragon spirit under the royal court to surge and become more intense. More and more master soldiers will be produced, and the sphere of influence directly under them will be radiated more and more. The wider the territory, the more mountainous forces within the territory will eventually be eaten away.
