Chapter 664: Soldiers Descend on the City
Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty still feels good about himself, and he has never suspected that his strength is weakening, and the Goguryeo War has depleted the treasury enormously.
More people have been damaged, and it has reached the point of breaking bones and bones.
In addition, his luxurious life, you must know that the world is a poor tour of the world, but his pomp is not like this, and every time he travels, he consumes a lot of money.
So far, there are still some palace halls in the eastern capital of Luoyang, which are under construction.
Since he became emperor, the most he has done has been spending money.
Rich and capricious, no one can manage it, in fact, the courtiers did not stop it, all the things decided by Emperor Yang of Sui were so smooth, and such efficient courtiers should be getting richer and richer.
Take Youzhou as an example, the more money you spend, the richer you get, if you really compare, one has vitality and the other has savings.
The reason why Emperor Yang of Sui did not disband his soldiers and horses was that he had to take the traitor's sacrifice flag.
That's what he had to do.
After Emperor Yang of Sui returned to Jiangling, he immediately wrote a holy decree to announce the rebellion of Youzhou City, Taiyuan Li Family, Laihu'er and others to the world, and the next plan was to quell the rebellion.
Summoned the soldiers and horses again for a while, Emperor Yang of Sui was also capricious, and in order to deal with these people, he directly wrote that whoever could do it could be added to the rank of knight.
As soon as the news came out, the world was in an uproar.
The strongest repercussions are the people of the green forest, and it didn't take long for the forces of each mountain to gather together, and within a few days, the cottage announced that it would lead a thousand people to crusade, and it also pulled up the people of the green forest all over the world.
These people have no scruples, and now that the holy decree has come out, they all know that if they are weak and want to achieve things first, they need to pull up the team and use their strength to prove their worth.
Wagang was the first to stand up and spread the news, to crusade against the Li family in Taiyuan Mansion, and the news did not forget to advertise themselves and gather like-minded people from all over the world to conspire together.
As a result, a few days later, all the mountains with some strength couldn't sit still, and they came out one after another to speak out, either recruiting or looking for allies.
The Li family in Taiyuan Mansion, Tang Guogong Li Yuan naturally received the news, and the current situation is a group of rabble shouting Huan, but they don't see any action.
The momentum made them gather a lot of people in a short period of time.
In this regard, Li Yuan was not idle, threw people to increase his efforts to strengthen the soldiers and horses, and in order to raise funds, he even took out all the real estate and fields purchased by Taiyuan Mansion and sold them.
Their Li family is ready to recruit 100,000 soldiers and horses in case of emergency.
Just when many people were active, the Xiao family in Jiangling, Xiao Mo was really depressed, and he was just about to develop his power but he didn't expect Emperor Yang of Sui to come back, and he had to keep a low profile about what he did.
He can endure silently, Zhang Zhongjian doesn't think so, although he cooperates with the Xiao family, he also hasn't forgotten to participate in various things in the green forest.
News from all sides is also constantly gathering to several of them.
Li Mi, who has a cooperative relationship with them, is busy now and has no time to discuss things with them, the situation in the troubled times of the world is already surging undercurrent, and as the head of the royal secret agent, he is also assigned by the unknown father-in-law to start doing things.
The rivers and lakes are green, and the nobles and wealthy families all need to be collected by him.
Hostilities have been established, now it's up to who strikes first.
Emperor Yang of Sui was very concerned about the news that came back from time to time, with the operation of the unknown father-in-law, the entire royal secret agent was operating, and a large amount of news was collected every day.
It was rare for Emperor Yang of Sui to be drunk, just yesterday he saw the news given to him by no name, and as soon as the news of the counterinsurgency came out, the Green Forest forces were the first to respond.
It seems that the strength of each mountain is not good, but the power of gathering together is great.
According to the information of the secret investigation, there are currently many gatherings in the green forest, with a total number of no less than 50,000 people.
So many people are making Emperor Yang of Sui feel a big headache, he actually knew that the Green Forest Force can gather so many people, to say that he knows very well about recruiting soldiers and horses, as long as there is food and salary, 50,000 people can easily develop to double in a short time.
"These people in the green forest are really lawless, they have such a scale, and it will be a disaster for the Sui State to stay sooner or later."
Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty issued a holy decree to the world, the purpose of which was to know the hidden forces, and through Penglai's imperial conquest, he could see that many princes and generals were raising private soldiers under various reasonable pretexts.
Nominally, they recruited soldiers and horses to come to support, but in fact, the ambitions of these people have been known to everyone, and so far no one has expressed it except for the people in the green forest who said that they would attack Taiyuan Mansion.
What he wanted to know now was whether the princes and generals had dismissed their soldiers and horses when they returned, but the fact was that they didn't.
"Nameless, give orders to go down and send troops to attack Taiyuan Mansion."
Emperor Yang of Sui is the emperor, what he wants to do is actually very simple, don't those princes and generals who join in the fun bring soldiers and horses and want to stay in Penglai City in various names, they don't think about this kind of thing.
Emperor Yang of Sui directly sent them a holy decree and directly asked them to lead the soldiers and horses to attack Li Yuan, and the choice given to these people was to either disband the soldiers and horses under various pretexts, or really bring them over to fight.
Even if they recruit soldiers and horses, the right to speak will not be there.
The princely generals who stayed in Penglai City for the reason of repairing had no choice at all after receiving the holy decree, so they could only send troops to Taiyuan Mansion.
There were 100,000 troops stationed in Penglai City, but so many people were defeated in the face of Laihu'er's attack in less than three days.
Why did he win so quickly, in fact, he had already secretly deployed when Laihu'er decided to help the Li family.
You must know that Laihu'er has been operating in Penglai City for many years, and the residents in the city can't tell the difference at all, and the result is that the "outsiders" are directly driven out of the city through internal and external cooperation.
Penglai soldiers also paid a lot of price in this battle, but he had the promise of the Li family, and a large amount of food was his confidence.
After the news of Laihu'er's reoccupation of Penglai spread, Emperor Yang of Sui was directly slapped in the face, and directly sent Yuwen Chengdu to lead 100,000 soldiers and horses to crusade against Laihu'er.
On the other side, the outside of Taiyuan Mansion has been surrounded by 100,000 soldiers and horses.
Wagang soldiers and horses are also among them.
Zhai Rang led 10,000 soldiers and horses, and when they gathered outside the gate of Taiyuan Mansion, because it was the green forest forces, they were directly targeted by the encirclement forces.
He is now leading people to play vanguard.
If they win, their merit as a pioneer is undoubtedly the greatest, and if they lose, they also lose the most, and after weighing the pros and cons, he still decided to act as a vanguard.
