(Today's morning shift, there is dinner in the evening)

Needless to say, Jiang Baoyi fled back to Chang'an and was treated preferentially. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

I am afraid that the reason for this is not only because of his unyielding strength after being captured, but also because of other political considerations.

Li Tang's situation gradually deteriorated, at the beginning, with Li Yuan's generals going south, as well as the Li family's relatives were leading troops outside, the people in the Guanxi Gate were favored by Li Yuan, but when it was really critical, Li Yuan couldn't trust them the most.

It goes without saying that the turmoil on the ground in Kansai began with the Kansai Gate Valve.

Therefore, as long as people like Jiang Baoyi and Pei Lin return to Chang'an, they will not be harshly criticized.

Not only did Jiang Baoyi throw away the post of General Zuo Wuwei, but even led the guards to guard the palace, but Pei Lian, who was cut to the people, also appeared in the Taiji Hall a few days later.

It is worth mentioning that Jiang Baoyi once again recounted the enemy situation in Jindi, and this time he didn't dare to talk nonsense, because he was not the only one who fled back.

But he is much stronger than Pei Lian, after all, he has experienced this battle from beginning to end, and in the narrative, the fact that Pei Lin fled first when he encountered the enemy was also exposed by him without hesitation.

It can be said that this is a guy who understands neither military affairs nor politics, in a word, not only added to Li Yuan's blockage, but also offended Pei Lian.

Let Pei Lian, who originally planned to support each other and regain a foothold in the court, immediately pulled Jiang Baoyi on his blacklist, ranking only after Liu Wenjing.

……………………………………

A few days later, Yang Yu, the Duke of Xuguo, died violently in the palace of the acting king of that year.

No one pursued the attacker, some people thought that it was Li Yuanji, the king of Qi who had just been recruited to Beijing, and some people knew that Pei Lin seemed to have been in and out of the Xuguo Mansion before.

Anyway, Yang Yu died.

As for this...... In the eyes of some resourceful people, it is inevitable and accidental.

The inevitability lies in the fact that the emperor who gave up his status always sat in that position, and it is really difficult for people to feel at ease if such a person does not die.

The accident is that the time from abdication is too short, and he should not die at this time, but now he is dead, the reason, in addition to the fact that his previous king name was very bad, I am afraid that it is also related to the current general trend.

In any case, when a former Venerable of the Ten Thousand Vehicles dies, the movement will definitely not be too small, and many secrets inside are destined to be buried in the depths of some people's hearts and will not be known to outsiders.

Those chaotic speculations, no matter how close they are to the real thoughts, there will be no basis, in a word, in such a matter, there will be no real thoughts at all.

The vassals and servants of the Duke of Xuguo were then all taken down, killed, exiled, and then able to show up in Chang'an, then they were not ordinary people, and they must all have a prominent surname.

It is said that Li Yuan shed some tears in the Taiji Palace, and then ordered the Ministry of Rites to bury Yang Yu with the gift of a prince.

There is no such hidden danger in Chang'an City, but Li Yuan still has to face the raging war in the world......

Li Shimin, who led the troops in the northwest, was gradually gaining the upper hand in the confrontation with Xue Rengao, because Xue Rengao's troops began to run out of food.

The northwest is already a land of wind and sand, at the beginning of Xue raising his army, he relied on the family foundation accumulated by the Xue family's merchants in the Western Regions, and in the past few years, with the expansion of the army, it is a matter of time before military resources are gradually tightened.

Therefore, after these border soldiers and horses rose up, most of them were conducive to quick battles, and after holding each other for a long time, their shortcomings were gradually revealed.

Moreover, Xue Rengao is not his father Xue Ju, and the internal strife is also rapidly consuming his strength, at this time, the sequelae of killing Tang Bi at the beginning are also continuing to plague Xue Rengao's department, making their internal instability more and more unstable.

And the reason why Xue Rengao's army is gradually declining is that Xue Rengao is brutal and tyrannical, he will slaughter soldiers without a fight, cut his tongue and gouge out his eyes, and there are many kinds of torture, which makes people feel shocked, and his reputation in the northwest is not much different from that of Zhu Can, the cannibal king of Jianghuai.

This made all the officers and men of the Tang Army have no idea of surrendering to the enemy when they are against Xue Rengao's army, and often even if they are defeated and trapped, they will fight to the death.

Xue Rengao's bad reputation did not receive much of a deterrent effect on the enemy and us, and while enhancing the cohesion of the Tang Army, it also made the northwest departments complain.

In the past few years, Li Shimin, who commanded the army, has grown into a fairly mature army commander, and at this time, he spared no effort to promote Xue Rengao's evil deeds, and even did not hesitate to release some of the generals who had been demoted......

In addition, Xue Ju still had Li Liang behind him, and Xue Rengao's army of more than 100,000 gradually lost the place to move, and he was like a trapped beast near Fufeng.

Most importantly, Turkic support slowed down in the autumn of the year, as the Turkic civil strife began to show its feet.

At this time, Li Shimin had clearly seen the dawn of the victory over Xue Rengao, at such a critical moment, Li Shimin did not return to Beijing after hearing the news of the defeat of Jindi.

In the northwest wind and sand, Li Shimin's eyes, which had already faded to the last trace of greenness, looked at the east, as if a wisp of fire was burning and blooming in his eyes.

Is he angry, he must be angry, but he is not angry at the enemy's arrogance and treachery, he is angry at the incompetence of Li Shentong and others, and angry at his father who has never been willing to listen carefully to his words.

Because he had already advised his father that the Jin land conquest should be the same as the northwest war, with the main hold, and use the strong city of Jin to consume Li Po in the north of Jin, in addition, he should die to protect Shuzhong, because that is where the life is.

When my father heard this, I am afraid he didn't listen to a word.

Shuzhong lost most of it, and the one who led the troops in Hedong turned out to be an incompetent person like Li Shentong......

Since when did my father stop listening to him?

Maybe he never got his father's favor all along, right? The eldest brother and the fourth brother can always get the favor of their father, but he can't, he has been like this since he was a child......

As he grew older, he also knew some reasons, probably because every time his father saw him, the second son, he would think of Yang Er, right?

Ask yourself, the more military exploits he makes, is it similar to Yang Guangyue?

It has always been said that the eldest brother is the most similar to the father...... Haha, with today's situation, the Li family is all enemies, and the eldest brother, who has always been known as a dignified and stable person, what can he do?

Crown prince...... Did he really deserve it? In addition to winning over the court officials and contacting the lords, what did the prince do?

Regardless of merit, only one who is generous and generous can firmly occupy the position of the crown prince...... Hmph, what kind of bullshit is that?

Ambition grows with anger, and resentment towards his father and brother ensues.

This is not something that happens overnight, but it bears fruit after a long gestation and with the expansion of power.

This is one of the stubborn diseases of the wealthy family, there is nothing strange about it, and a family like the Li family, the second son wants to struggle under the suppression of his father and brother, and it will inevitably be such a result.

Father and son turn against each other, brothers become enemies, and the number of times they have been staged among the Central Plains clan is definitely not a little less than the drama of father's kindness and filial piety, brother's friend and brother's respect, but now Li Tang, who is a little overwhelmed by foreign enemies, has not left enough time for civil strife.

The person who behaved quite friendly back then, and could even be called funny, has become a big problem for the Li family, Li Shimin thought of this, and could only say that the last time has passed, the world has changed, and there are no certain rules to follow.

Of course, the first thing he thought of at this time was really no different from his father, and the third mother of the Li family was deeply entangled with that person...... With the current situation, taking into account the idea of face, both father and son were thrown out of the clouds at the same time.

But whether this kind of children's private affairs can withstand thousands of troops or other temptations, only God knows, anyway, for their father and son, this is certainly nothing, so this is destined to be just a delaying strategy, and they don't expect to receive any miracles.

And for Li Shimin, the thinking ends here, he now only has Xue Rengao's more than 100,000 troops in his eyes, which is already a feast in his eyes.

When he broke Xue Rengao, subdued his people, and returned to the east...... Li Shimin looked forward to it a little, but unfortunately, at this time, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and other strategists from the Prince's Mansion were not by his side, otherwise, he would like to hear what they have to say......

Immediately, Li Shimin replied to Chang'an that the military situation was urgent, and Xue Rengao was in the past few months, and he couldn't leave, and by the way, he also recommended Liu Wenjing to lead the troops to Li Po.

At this time, Li Shimin wanted to talk about the war in Jindi again, and wanted Liu Wenjing to lead his troops to guard the Longmen ferry and not enter the east of the river lightly, so as to let go of the strategy of being broken, but in the end he did not mention these in the letter.

Because if he returned to Beijing and told his father Chen in person, he might be able to influence his father's decision, but a letter, then forget it, and his father was never very willing to listen to his son talk about the general ......

It's just that Li Shimin would never have thought of what kind of effect his letter would have......

……………………………………

Just when the upper and lower parts of Kansai were in turmoil by the Jindi War, in June, Henan also underwent drastic changes.

Wang Shichong was called the emperor......

Emperor Tai Yang Dong was more than a year later than his uncle Yang Yu, and was ousted from the emperor's throne.

Wang Shichong also made a Zen concession, which was almost a copy of Li Yuan, and took over the position of the Son of Heaven as the prime minister.

To tell the truth, the two princes of Henan have been together for many years, and they have almost been tormented by all kinds of wars, and Li Mi's madness lies in his arbitrariness and suspicion.

Wang Shichong has been suppressed by Li Mi for many years, and once he defeats a strong enemy, it is not only the power in his hands that suddenly swells, but also his ambition......
