Chapter 146: Providence
. Shumilou.CoM.Shumilou.Co
It didn't take long for the nationwide uprising to endanger the capital. Li Liang raised troops in Wuwei and proclaimed himself the king of Daliang in Hexi; Xue Ju proclaimed himself Emperor of Qin; The most lethal was the Wagang peasant rebel army led by Li Mi, which had launched a strong attack on the eastern capital of Luoyang.
And Li Yuan, Song Laosheng, and Qu Tutong held each other in Huoyi, intending to seize the Daxing Palace in the Western Capital!
"If the east and west are lost one after another, I'm afraid that I will be trapped in this Jiangdu." Yang Guangwan was helpless, and his depression almost collapsed.
"Father, when the emperor is in danger, the son is willing to serve his father and kill the enemy!" Yang Jun immediately asked.
Yang Guang waved his hand and said: "Wan'er is deeply gratified by this filial piety to his father, but the world is not peaceful, I will not allow you to make any mistakes, but on behalf of me, I must make the whole country work together and work together to the outside world." ”
"Sons obey orders!" Yang Yan said immediately, and then walked out happily, Yuwen Chengzhi was waiting for him outside, and stepped forward and asked, "King Qi's face is full of joy, it should be a good thing, right?" ”
"My father has ordered me to supervise the country!" Yang Yan said excitedly.
"The minister knocks to see His Royal Highness the Prince!" Yuwen Chengtoe immediately fell to the ground flatteringly and bowed, Yang Yan was almost happy, but he still pretended to say: "It's nothing more than a prison country, and he hasn't really become a prince." ”
"Your Majesty's health is deteriorating, and the establishment of a crown prince is an imminent matter. I should contact the ministers to write a letter, persuading Your Majesty to take the country as the foundation and make His Royal Highness the King of Qi the crown prince! Yuwen Chengzhi said.
"Hahaha, good!" Yang Jun held up Yuwen Chengzhi with both hands and solemnly promised: "If one day I become the emperor." I will definitely make you a general! ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Yuwen Chengtoe changed his words again, and Yang Jin's heart was full of joy and overjoyed.
"Your Majesty is sick. You two are grinning and smiling here, and you are courtiers in vain! ”
Suddenly, the sound of scolding came, and both of them were startled, and they looked back suddenly, only to see Yuan Ziyan walking over with Yang Gao in his hand.
"I've seen Lord Yuan." Yuwen Chengzhi hurriedly bowed down and said, this is a red man in front of the emperor. If she had listened to what she had just said, and then told the emperor that a hundred heads would not be enough to cut off.
"Yuwen Chengtoe. Both the Xiaoguo Guard and the Praetorian Guard need to be managed, and you, as the commander, are chatting here, don't be tired of being crooked, right? Yuan Ziyan scolded unceremoniously.
The corners of Yuwen Cheng's mouth twitched, but he didn't dare to fight back. just blindly said: "The subordinates are derelict in their duties!" ”
"Yuan Ziyan. This king is discussing important matters with General Yuwen, so please step down! Yang Jun put up the shelf of the prince with his hands behind his back, he also knew some medicine, and saw that his father's life was about to end, and now he was the identity of the prison country, so everyone should look up at their faces and speak.
Yuan Ziyan was just about to be annoyed, but Yang Gao stepped forward unhappily, with a childish but somewhat majestic face. said: "Second Emperor Brother, Aunt Yan is not only an official of the imperial court. Or am I and other elders, how can you speak in such a tone? ”
"Elders? She's not as old as me, and you're just an aunt! Yang Jun beckoned to his younger brother and said, "Come here, come to the imperial brother, I'll show you new things!" ”
"When my father is sick, how can I have the heart to entertain!" For the first time, Yang Gao showed a tough tone towards his brother, and then pulled Yuan Ziyan into the room.
Hey, this junior! Yang Jian was just about to be annoyed, but he was grabbed by Yuwen Chengtoe, and blessed in a low voice: "Your Highness, this King Zhao and Yuan Ziyan are in collusion, you must be more careful!" ”
Yang Jun was angry, and when he heard this, he said unhappily: "Gao'er is the brother of this palace, if you chew the root of your tongue again, you will not be spared!" ”
After saying that, Yang Yan snorted and threw his sleeves away, Yuwen Chengzhi stood in place with an extremely ugly face, and in just a short time, he was reprimanded by both ends. It seems that the emperor's family, it is not right to support anyone, after all, he can't escape the life of the slave, how can he be happy to be the emperor!
This thought came out of his mind, and Yuwen Chengtoe was also startled, yes, only when you really become an emperor can you stand tall and look down on all your subjects. The best in the world can also be picked according to your own mind, which is like sneaking now, like hiding a group of time bombs in a private house, crying and crying, reluctantly, as if marrying yourself as a concubine, it is better to enter the palace as a palace maid to serve the dog emperor!
A bunch of sluts!
Yuwen Chengtoe spat on the ground with hatred, and left with an angry face.
"Father, I look good today, and I think I will recover in a few days." After Yang Gao came in, he leaned down next to Yang Guang and said.
"Gao'er will also hide from his father. Gao'er, if your father is no longer there, you have to guard the country for your father, remember? Yang Guang stroked Yang Gao's head lovingly and said.
Yuan Ziyan also understood at this time that Yang Guang had already made up his mind to let Yang Gao succeed to the throne, although he was young, as long as he could persist for a few years, he would definitely be able to become a generation of saints and open up the prosperous era of the Great Sui. As for Yang Jun's imprisonment, it is nothing more than to stabilize him.
"Father, the son must live up to his mission!" Yang Gao solemnly kowtowed to Yang Guang, he also understood what his father meant, although it was not what he hoped for, but he knew the virtue of the second brother very well, and there were a bunch of fox friends and dog friends beside him, and the shaky country of the Great Sui would soon be corrupted in his hands.
After Yang Gao finished speaking, his face was pathetic, and he had the posture of being ordered in danger, but in the end, he was childish, and he cried again in Yang Guang's arms. Yang Guang hugged his son tightly, and the two lines of turbid tears also slid down, as if he would never see his son again as soon as he let go.
"Ziyan, I left you in the palace before, because I was tempted by the books in the palace. And now, if everything is broken by the rebels, I am afraid that the book collection will be destroyed, why do you want to stay with me? Yang Guang muttered.
"Your Majesty, at the beginning, the palace was very strange and interesting to me, and you are also an emperor you can rely on. But now, you are more like my own brother, like a family, you are in trouble, how can I walk away ruthlessly? Yuan Ziyan sighed and held Yang Guang's thin hand in his palm.
Yang Guang just nodded, but it could be seen from his moist eyes that he was still very touched in his heart. There was no time to squander it to sensationalize, so Yang Guang, who was lying on the dragon couch, calmed down and gave an order, mobilizing elite troops from all over the country to rescue the Eastern Capital, with Xue Shixiong as the commander-in-chief.
Xue Shixiong is fierce and aggressive, and he is past his age, he is not the best candidate for this counterinsurgency, if you want to say that the outstanding merits are still that hard condition, and he is loyal to Yang Guang.
First-class generals have fallen one after another, and many people have taken the opportunity to rise up, Yang Guangshen has a sadness, there are no generals available in the Great Sui, so he can only use some unsatisfactory second-rate generals.
The general trend has gone, Yang Guang at this time no longer wants to have a brilliant victory, there is still a trace of fantasy in his heart, as long as it can be stable for a few years, when Yang Gao grows up, there will be a new atmosphere.
Yang Guang privately wrote an edict and canonized Yang Gao as the crown prince, and after his death, he was the third emperor of the Great Sui. As for Yang Jun, for fear of causing chaos, Yang Guang also made it clear that he was not allowed to bring troops into Beijing, which was tantamount to excluding Yang Jun.
However, the edifice will fall, the oil lamps will run out, and not to mention a few years, a few months is already a luxury requirement. Not all of those who disturb the world are dissatisfied with Yang Guang, and a considerable number of them are ambitious and fish in troubled waters.
Xue Shixiong's trust in the emperor was touched to the point of incomprehensibility, and he led 30,000 elite soldiers to resist stubbornly, and even ordered that all the rebels should be killed when they saw it, without asking for instructions, and I don't know how many people went to Huangquan because of this.
Xue Shixiong moved forward bravely, reported success all the way, and killed Dou Jiande timidly, and hurriedly retreated from the occupied city, miserable.
Xue Shixiong was overjoyed, feeling that the rebels were simply vulnerable, as long as the elite soldiers of the whole country were twisted into a rope, why not be afraid of these little ghosts who could not jump up and down!
Xue Shixiong was full of energy, took advantage of the victory to pursue, and forced Dou Jiande to have no way to retreat, and discussed with his subordinates with a bitter face, if it really can't be done, right?
But his subordinates disagreed, it was easy to stand on their own, how could they give up easily, not to mention that the emperor was suspicious, and after surrendering, it would be a death, so it was better to fight again.
Dou Jiande couldn't resist these people, so he also made up his mind, symbolically tried again, and immediately surrendered when he saw that the situation was wrong, even if he was executed, he would save the lives of his brothers, and he couldn't die in vain!
Dou Jiande is nothing more than sensationalism, and he is muttering all the way, he will definitely not be able to beat Xue Shixiong, thinking about how to submit a book to save his life. Then, Dou Jiande led the army to a place less than a mile away from Xue Ying, the sky was already about to clear, and the originally planned night attack plan was naturally in vain.
This is also due to the reason why Dou Jiande surrendered wholeheartedly and did not use all his strength, just when he was about to discuss surrendering, suddenly a heavy fog fell from the sky, extremely heavy, and the visibility was less than one meter!
Dou Jiande is overjoyed, God really helps me! So he immediately ordered to lead the army to rush into the Xue camp and fight a more effective assault than the new army at night.
The fog was very sudden, Xue Shixiong was defenseless, the soldiers had not yet put on their armor, and the sound of the battle had already arrived from far and near.
In the panic of the soldiers, not to mention the war horses, the weapons could not be found, only the part of the killed, had no choice but to climb over the fence and escaped. Xue Shixiong was furious and personally killed several people to demonstrate, but then the whip was beyond his reach, and his subordinates also hurriedly found Xue Shixiong and persuaded him to leave here quickly.
Xue Shixiong was helpless in every way, and with deep regret and dozens of soldiers, he fought his way out of the bloody road and fled back to Zhuo County. The conquest ended with the annihilation of Xue Shixiong's entire army, but Xue Shixiong, who was already relatively safe, couldn't think about it, and fell ill when he returned to Zhuo County, and he couldn't afford to fall ill, and soon died.
Dou Jiande thought that he was like a divine help, and he became more and more proud, and the morale of his soldiers was greatly boosted.
When the news reached Jiangdu, Yang Guang had no strength to cry, knowing that this battle was not due to Xue Shixiong's improper command, but to providence. If it weren't for that fog, even if Dou Jiande raided, he wouldn't have taken much advantage.
The expedition had to continue, and the soldiers in the north were pulled all over, and Yang Guang finally had to temporarily appoint Wang Shichong as the commander-in-chief of the Aid Luo Army. (To be continued......)
