Yang Tong and Yang Gongren entered the city side by side, Yang Tong smiled at Yang Gongren: "We have been running around all these years, going north from Luoyang, moving to Zhuo County, and from Zhuo County to Yecheng, and almost going to Daxing, moving around, going around in a circle, and still returning to Luoyang, which is also half of our hometown." I still remember that before leaving, my uncle chose three places for me to stand on, namely Guanzhong, Bingzhou, and Jizhou, Hebei, but my uncle asked me to choose Jizhou, and it was precisely because of the right first step that we were able to avoid the Central Plains and firmly rooted in the north. Looking back to this day, the choice of a place to settle down was really important, one wrong step, one wrong step, one right step, no matter how difficult the situation can be slowly opened; Uncle's words are no less than 'Longzhong Pair', to paraphrase the saying of the ancients, I should say 'my son's room' and 'my Kongming' to my uncle! ”

Everyone laughed.

Yang Gongren stroked his beard and smiled: "I'm afraid that the saint misses a few princes and princesses, right?" ”

"It's a little bit!"

Yang Tong did not shy away from it, and a sigh flashed in his eyes: "Since the children were conceived, the four sides have been fighting, and the smoke is everywhere!" I fight everywhere, even after they are born, they always gather less and leave more, and when this side is completely stable, it is time to bring them to Luoyang, but the world has not yet been unified, and I don't know how long they can get together. ”

"Wechen has some opinions!" Yang Gongren said with a smile.

"Oh? Uncle said it was okay. Yang Tong looked at Yang Gongren and was a little surprised

Yang Gongren said: "Now my Great Sui territory from the West Regions, east to Liaodong, north to Yinshan, south to Nanyang, on the breadth of the territory, the Holy Shang is already the most princes in the world, but under the rule of my Great Sui belongs to Ji, You, and, Yong, Liang, Liaodong, and the Central Plains, these eleven counties, are all war-torn places, especially the Central Plains has been in war since the Great Cause years, those who can leave their hometowns, and they are still living in their homeland, either the people who want to go can not go, or they are all brave people, these people are watching the movements of the imperial court; Especially the latter, most of the people who have had the experience of being thieves and survived by luck, if my Great Sui Dynasty can't be resettled and rescued in time, it won't be long before they will rise up and make trouble! Therefore, our first step of governance is quite crucial, these people are extremely suspicious, and once they lose trust in the imperial court, it is difficult to trust them again...... The minister thought that when the saint came back this time, he should sit firmly in Luoyang, sort out the people's livelihood, and supervise the hundred officials, instead of continuing to take charge of military affairs as before, and if someone provokes him in the future, he should also be resisted by the generals and generals of the army! Unless it is necessary, the Holy One should not move lightly. Holy Lord, you can't be defeated! ”

Now Yang Tong's world-shattering reputation is a world-renowned victory, but the north and the south are completely different; Before Jizhou, although the battle of Xingyang led by Yang Tong was amazing to the world, but the Great Sui Dynasty at that time was notorious, the people's hearts and public opinion represented by Wagang, and Yang Dong who suppressed Wagang was on the side of the violent suppression of the people, for the people of Qingxu, it was Yang Tong who ruined their good life, although many years have passed, but Yang Tong's reputation among the people is mixed, and moreover, for the Qingxu land that has suffered from the scourge of the Grand Canal, ' The reputation of the Sui Dynasty is really not very good, many people are now settled, it is completely surrendered to Yang Dong's name of victory, before all kinds of civil affairs have not been effective, Qi County, Dongping, Jiyin These places are relying on Yang Dong, the name of the Great Sui Changsheng in the top.

If Yang Tong can continue to win, he will naturally have nothing to say, but as long as he loses the last game, Yang Tong will be pulled down from the altar, and then a series of turmoil will occur.

In other words, whether it is Li Jing, Luo Shixin, Qin Qiong and others, they can be defeated or lost, because their reputation among the people and in the army is not high enough to shake the morale of the army, they are human beings, not gods, it is normal to suffer one or two defeats, and the people and soldiers can accept it. Because the people and soldiers always firmly believe that even if they lose now, as the 'God of War' Yang Tong will win once he makes a move, this is a kind of power of faith.

For Yang Tong himself, the belief in the army and the people is a powerful pressure, so Yang Tong cannot be defeated, cannot afford to be defeated, and must not be planted from the altar of the gods, otherwise, the consequences will be serious.

But looking at the famous generals in ancient and modern times, it is easy for the winner to be successful, and it is difficult for the undefeated, looking at those famous generals in history, how many of them have not tasted defeat? Yang Tong's failure in one or two battles may not shake the foundation, but the sharpness of the Great Sui Iron Army will be lost, and at least it will stop, and if it is serious, the entire Great Sui will begin to decline. And the enemy general who defeated Yang Dong will step on Yang Dong to become a new generation of war gods who are high above him, and become a god feared by any enemy, even the Sui army.

Yang Gongren knew that if he said this, it was very likely to provoke Yang Tong's anger, but this was a major event related to the future of the Great Sui, for the sake of the Great Sui, for the sake of this regime that had poured countless people's lives into it, he had to remind Yang Dong that if he even allowed Yang Tong to do this again, no one would dare to say it.

"Uncle has a point! I won't fight anymore. ”

"Huh?" Yang Gongren couldn't help but be stunned, Yang Tong was good at war, warlike, and warliked, and it was well known that he liked the military camp, and his enthusiasm for the army was higher than anyone else. According to Yang Gongren's opinion, even if Yang Tong is not angry, he will not agree with his own proposition, but he never imagined that if he said a word, Yang Tong immediately said, "I will not fight in the future." For a while, Yang Gongren's mind was a little dazed.

"Actually, my uncle's good intentions know that I really can't be defeated, and I can't afford to be defeated. In the past few days, I have thought that I will not bring troops to the battlefield unless necessary. Yang Tong glanced at Yang Gongren, who was stunned, and suddenly laughed: "I really don't have the material for the marching formation!" ”

The saint laughed, and the minister was just worried about what happened if the saint missed. If the saints can't fight, who else will fight in my Great Sui? Yang Gongren didn't believe it at all.

Yang Tong smiled bitterly, what kind of world is this, to be honest, why doesn't anyone believe it? Everybody! Even Yang Gongren is like this, I'm afraid that no one really believes that he can't fight, and he doesn't bother to explain: "Zheng'er is too young, if I, the father, will disappear one day, I really don't know how he should take over such a big family business." Since ancient times, it is easy to fight the country and it is difficult to defend the country, and I have to teach him well. ”

"The Holy One is serious." Yang Gongren shook his head and said: "The Holy Lord is blessed with Qitian, and he will be able to live a long life." ”

"Polite words!" Yang Tong pointed at Yang Gongren and smiled: "But it's rare for my uncle to say it once, and I still like it very much." ”

“……”

Listening to the conversation between the two, Wei Yunqi, the servant of Shangshu next to him, couldn't help but wonder, for Yang Tong, the monarch, ......

How so?

It's not a benevolent monarch, of course, it's not a tyrant, maybe in his heart, he has never positioned himself as the emperor, get along with him, you never have to be afraid, just like working with friends, and even do something that makes people cry and laugh, there will be disputes between monarchs and ministers, and the saint will also be angry, but he never targets anyone, the matter will turn the page after the incident, follow this king, the courtiers are very comfortable, at ease, and more at ease!
