The territory of the Sui Dynasty was wider than that of the previous dynasties.
But the Sui Dynasty was not just the world of the Yang family. Many people knew that the Central Plains was actually the world of the Guanlong family.
With five surnames and seven hopes, these aristocratic families control almost nine out of ten of the world's soldiers and horses, and even have inextricable connections with the great masters.
Before, Yang Guang didn't care at all about rebellions in various places, or even ignored them. Is it because those poor people have nothing?
Except for their bodies, which are riddled with holes due to hard work day and night, and without any armor, weapons, horses, or martial arts skills, what else can they use to rebel?
Even their rebellion is just a joke in the eyes of some people.
Of course, in the eyes of real generals, those rebels are also credited to the movement. A group of cavalry can defeat ten thousand with one charge.
But when he received the report of Yang Xuangan's rebellion, Yang Guang, who had always been in a calm mood, suddenly started to panic.
Yang Xuangan would rebel. Does this mean that the Guanlong family abandoned him and the Sui Dynasty?
Without interrogating the King of Korea, Yang Guang directly ordered Li Shimin to behead Gao Yuan, who was kneeling begging for mercy, and then quickly retreated.
They even sent Yu Wenhua and others to lead the vanguard team, traveling with light vehicles and horses, and went back to quell the rebellion first.
This time, he was really scared.
Because they rushed too hastily, many soldiers and generals who were seriously injured and who ran slowly were abandoned. Along the road, there were countless ordnance, baggage, and food.
One day, Pei Ju stood on the side of the road, shook his head, sighed, and left midway.
This Great Sui Dynasty is about to end.
…
When he went to Chunmen, Yang Xuangan raised his arms and called out, and the villagers in Jue and Luo competed to send cattle and wine to express their condolences to Yang Xuangan. Other people watching the excitement immediately gathered and presented eggs, vegetables, grains, etc.
After sending the cattle and wine, some poor people returned to Yang's house to change their clothes, drink wine and eat meat.
Routines have won people's hearts since ancient times.
Yang Xuangan stood on the high platform, feeling very excited.
"I am alone in the Shangzhu Kingdom, and my family has a huge amount of gold. I am rich and noble, and I have nothing to ask for.
Now, regardless of destroying my family and annihilating my clan, I just want to solve the urgent needs of the people of the world and save the lives of the people of Li. "
Immediately all the people cheered, and followers were like a crowd. Soon, the Yang family's rebel army numbered hundreds of thousands.
However, since the period of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, the Sui Dynasty has had a strict weapons management system, so these armies are just superficial. Many people may have only two kinds of sharp weapons in their hands: big wooden sticks and small wooden sticks.
Miserable.
However, when times come, heaven and earth all work together.
Soon, Sui general Da Xiyi led five thousand elite troops to suppress the rebellion and intercept the Yang family rebels.
A few days later, I faced tens of thousands of unarmed civilians who couldn't even run. Five thousand elite soldiers collapsed without a fight, leaving behind countless weapons, armor, and horses.
Li Mi and the generals looked a little dumbfounded.
Then Pei Hongce of Henan Zanzhi led his army to fight against Yang Xuangan. He didn't even fight, but threw away his armor and weapons and fled madly.
Li Mi suddenly felt his heart surge.
Originally, he thought his lord's choice to attack Luoyang was a bad move. But if the subsequent battles are really fought like this, this is really the best policy.
From the power of the dragon!
A few days later, when he arrived in Luoyang, Yang Xuangan was brave and powerful. Every time he fought with the troops coming to suppress the rebellion, he personally waved his spear, took the lead, and shouted loudly, which shocked the enemies.
The world compares him to Xiang Yu. He is good at comforting and leading troops, and soldiers are willing to fight to the death for him, making them invincible.
Yang Guang was even more anxious when he received the news. He sent out imperial edicts to suppress the rebellion one after another. Soldiers and horses from all over the Sui Dynasty were rushing to Luoyang.
Although Conglong's meritorious service is a great achievement, some governors and generals have almost reached the end of their lives. If they join the rebellion again, they will still be the same officials, so why rebel?
Catch the thief!
Among them, Wei Xuan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, led tens of thousands of people to rescue Luoyang from Guanzhong. He led his troops almost non-stop.
run.
When passing by Huayin, Wei Xuan, as a relative of Yang Xuangan, had a deep brotherhood, and suddenly remembered that the tomb of Yang Xuangan's father, Yang Su, was nearby.
As a relative, he naturally came to pay homage and knew the location.
Anyway, rebellion is a serious crime of treason, and it is better to gain advantage than to gain advantage from outsiders. So Wei Xuan dug up Yang Su's grave, dug out the bones, crushed them and spread the ashes.
After doing this, Wei Xuan was satisfied and wrote a memorial to Yang Guang to thank him, and then rushed to Luoyang without stopping.
In less than half a month, Wei Xuan sent 20,000 infantry and cavalry across Jiao and Jian to challenge the rebels. Yang Xuangan pretended to fail and Wei Xuan pursued him. As soon as the ambush came out, all the front troops were wiped out.
A few days later, Wei Xuan fought with Yang Xuangan again. As soon as the two armies fought, Yang Xuangan's people shouted: "The army has captured Yang Xuangan!"
Wei Xuanjun was a little confused. Why did he win before even fighting? He immediately relaxed, and then Yang Xuangan and several thousand cavalry took the opportunity to attack. Wei Xuan was defeated and fled.
With the continuous defeat of the government and troops everywhere, Yang Xuangan's momentum became more and more powerful, and even the rebels from all over the world respectfully called Yang Xuangan the king, the living overlord, the King of Chu Yang Xuangan.
With the support of unknown wealth from various places, the number of people coming to Yang's army to join the army every day reached more than 7,000.
The world seems to be at your fingertips.
…
Prince Chu's Mansion.
Li Mi hurried to the study.
According to his plan, soldiers are valuable and quick. Even if it is a bad move, Yang Xuangan should quickly occupy Luoyang and defend the city to have a chance of survival.
But now Luoyang cannot be captured for a long time. Wu Benlang's general Chen Leng attacked Yuan Wuben in Liyang, Wuwei general Qu Tutong stationed in Heyang, left Yiwei general Yuwenshu sent troops to advance, and right Xiaowei general came to protect his son and then came again. reinforce.
The war situation is tense. This is what the Sui Emperor most wanted to see, but it is what the rebels are most afraid of encountering.
The Sui Dynasty was supported by grain, grass and military equipment from four places, but they were like water without roots. How could they compete with others?
in front of the door.
Li Mi raised his hand and was about to knock on the door when he heard someone talking inside. It was Li Zixiong, the original Sui general.
When you succeed, the world will be kind to you. As their momentum grew, Li Zixiong also led his troops from all the way to defect.
Soon the general became a celebrity in front of the King of Chu because of his sincere words, correct attitude and outstanding abilities.
"King Chu, our army is now invincible in battles, but our reputation is not justified. Why not choose a day to ascend the throne and proclaim yourself emperor?"
[In view of the general environment,
When the time comes, with your divine power and that of Xiang Yu, with a single shout, the world will surely return to its center. Wouldn't it be wonderful for our army to be like the Chu army back then, sweeping across the north and south and establishing unparalleled achievements? "
…
After a while, Li Mi entered the study.
"Meet General Yang."
Yang Xuangan was very happy to see Li Mi. After all, he was the first person to follow him to help the country. His loyalty and ability were outstanding, and he was a true minister.
"What's going on with Li Qing's family?"
Li Mi said respectfully: "General Yang, it is recorded in history books that Zhang Er persuaded Chen Sheng not to proclaim himself king, but Chen Sheng drove Zhang Er away. Xun Or (xny) advised Cao Cao not to proclaim himself emperor, but Cao Cao ignored Xun Or. I dare not say more. .”
Yang Xuangan laughed loudly, stepped forward and patted Li Mi affectionately on the shoulder.
"You and I have an irreconcilable relationship. You don't have to worry about any differences. Speak freely. No matter what you say, I won't blame you."
Li Mi was relieved and nodded: "The subordinate then said something more, King Chu, if you become emperor at this time, you will definitely die.
Now that Luoyang cannot be conquered for a long time, reinforcements from all over the country are coming quickly. If we don't want to survive, we will go straight to Guanzhong and take advantage of the danger to defend it.
If the king tries to dominate, everything will eventually come to nothing! "
Yang Xuangan nodded and raised his hand: "Get out!"
Li Mi:? ? ?
Not long after, Qu Tutong crossed the Yellow River and garrisoned at "Poling". Yang
Xuangan was divided into two groups, with the west side resisting Wei Xuan and the east side resisting Qu Tutong. Fan Zigai sent out troops again, and a great battle broke out. The rebels were frequently defeated.
At this time, Yang Xuangan finally remembered the middle strategy proposed by Li Mi when he raised his army, and regretted it so much that he issued an edict announcing that he had captured Luoyang and now shifted his strategy to Guanzhong.
At this time Li Mi was preparing to escape.
When they arrived at Hongnong Palace, some fellow villagers stopped Yang Xuangan and said, "Hongnong Palace is empty of troops and has a lot of food, so it is easy to capture it. In this way, if you advance, you can cut off the enemy's food supply, and if you retreat, you can occupy Yiyang's territory."
Yang Xuangan agreed and stayed to attack Hongnong Palace. He fought for three days but could not defeat it. The pursuers even reached Shenhou. Only then did he realize that he seemed to have been deceived again, so he ran again.
Fight while retreating, and you will lose several times in one day.
At this time Li Mi had been caught.
In the end, only a dozen of the rebels arrived at Jialu Shu. Yang Xuangan screamed, scaring off the pursuers, and walked alone with his younger brother "Yang Jishan".
Standing by the river, King Chu looked far into the distance.
As the sun sets in the west, the sunset glows in the entire sky, and everything is covered with a thin layer of red gauze. In the distance, the smoke of birds slowly emerges from the chimneys of every house, floating leisurely high into the sky.
"The infinite soul cannot be summoned. The sun sets in the west and the water flows in the east." Yang Xuangan sighed quietly and handed the long knife in his hand to his younger brother.
"Everyone in the world says that I am the living Xiang Yu. Today's defeat at the riverside does not live up to the name of Xiang Yu, hahaha.
If you chop off my head, then Yang Guang may spare your life because of my Yang family’s military exploits! "
"Wars are rising all over the world, and the emperor is innocent. I, Yang Xuangan, am the number one rebel in the Sui Dynasty. I will definitely leave my name in history. Even if I die, I will be honored! Hahahaha~"
With tears in his eyes, Yang Jishan cut off his eldest brother's head and then committed suicide.
It is better to die happily if you live a life of pampering and begging for mercy after losing and being insulted by the enemy.
At this time, Li Mi was rescued by the martyrs while being escorted, and finally escaped and ascended to heaven.
Opportunity awaits those who are prepared.
…
Pegasus Ranch.
The climate here is mild, the soil is fertile, and the products are abundant.
Among them, the wilderness where Pegasus Ranch is located has particularly rich pastures. It is surrounded by mountains and encompasses more than ten square miles of fertile fields. There are only two east and west gorges for entry and exit, and there are city walls and fortresses, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack.
"Uu~"
Song Shidao took his sister and cat with him, galloped on his horse, and finally arrived at the Pegasus Ranch, which he had cooperated with the Song family for a long time.
After Yang Xuangan was suppressed, Yang Guang learned the hard way and felt that it was because he was too kind to those people that he made them rebel one by one.
So he directly made a stipulation: Yang Xuangan, all the people involved, whether they were relatives of the emperor or noble families, would be punished with death, and then as many as 30,000 people would be killed in one go.
Later, gatherings of many people were banned. All those who have been involved with the gangsters must be convicted.
How can we judge that this is related to gangsters? It's just a matter of a few words from a low-level official. How fat is this?
As a result, under Yang Guang's series of measures that he believed to be extremely clever and resourceful, more and more people in the world rebelled.
We can't survive here. If we rebel, we can still have a full meal. Of course we rebel. And others have rebelled, so why don’t you rebel?
The ministers were very anxious, why did the good Sui Dynasty become like this? But fortunately, the sergeant is still there, the granary is still full, and it seems that we can still save it.
So several important ministers quickly warned Yang Guang that at this time, he should implement benevolent policies, issue edicts to comfort him, and open the granary.
Governing a big country is like cooking a small dish. You must not rush it.
Yang Guang was immediately furious. I, the Sui Dynasty, He Qing Haiyan, the world is peaceful and prosperous forever, how can anyone rebel?
impossible! This minister must be lying to him!
So Yang Guang wanted to kill those ministers. All the ministers were speechless and began to sing praises one by one.
Only then was Yang Guang satisfied. The weather happened to be hot, so he led his ministers, troops, and concubines to Jiangdu to escape the summer heat.
During the journey, a thousand beauties were selected on the dragon boat and asked to wear white clothes and stretch themselves in front of the boat. When Yang Guang was watching on the boat, he fell in love with Wu Jiangxian, the "legendary girl", and immediately accepted her as his concubine.
"The ancients said that beauty can be eaten, just like a fairy, it can really cure hunger!" Yang Guang laughed heartily and said to the ministers waiting nearby.
The ministers were uncomfortable and in pain. While watching the once prosperous Sui Dynasty in turmoil, they had to drink and have fun with Yang Guang, and sometimes even enjoy the concubines.
Every time they got up, some of them even felt that they were too sinful, but they started to look forward to the next banquet again.
I have to admit, if you only focus on pleasure, it is really comfortable.
But the rebels in the world, after eating and drinking, were still frightened at first. If the imperial army arrives, they will never be able to defeat it.
But after a while, I discovered that no one came to beat them. This was not bad, so everyone quickly started recruiting troops.
The prices of food, ordnance, and horses began to soar in various places. Especially the Song family made a lot of money.
Song Zhi was so busy that in the end he had to take medicine and run back and forth just to cope.
But every time I go to the boat and see my niece eating, drinking and having fun with Mr. Le, she won't stand up if she can lie down, and I immediately feel unhappy.
Whose home does this belong to? Who does the money he earns go to?
It's an eyesore, it's an eyesore!
Then, Song Yuzhi was kicked out and went to Pegasus Ranch with Song Shidao to reserve war horses for the next three years.
The little yellow cat was not kicked out, but Song Yu was tempted to come over because she had a beautiful sister at Pegasus Ranch.
"Second brother, have you arrived at Pegasus Ranch? I want to sleep and eat delicious food. I'm tired!" Song Yuzhi lay lazily on the horse, showing no grace at all.
The little yellow cat sat on the little shovel's face: "Meow?"
[Where’s my sister? Where’s my pretty sister? 】
Master Song said:......
He really couldn't understand why the great grand master was like this.
Is it so interesting to eat, drink and have fun every day?
