Chapter 1276: Surrender Tang Yi to Han Bu to Qin

The tree moves its nest to die, and the man moves to live.

Judging from the current situation in Guanzhong, if Yang Guang continues to stay, he will be swallowed up by Li Shimin sooner or later, which is the general trend, and it is by no means something that can be reversed by personal ability.

If Yang Guang wants to take revenge, he must ensure that he is not annexed, so the only way is to leave Guanzhong and retreat to Liangzhou to recuperate.

Although Dong Zhuo moved Yellow Turban prisoners of war to Liangzhou several times, and also accepted a large number of displaced people and Qiang people, the total population of the 89 counties of the 10 counties of Liangzhou was only less than 2 million, and the population was far less than the more than 5 million in the 38 counties of the three counties of Yongzhou.

Yongzhou did not have such a large population, but due to the Yellow Turban Uprising, which ravaged the eastern part of the country, a lot of time to move westward, and the Han court moved the capital to Chang'an, coupled with Dong Zhuo's reforms, the total population would skyrocket so much.

Of course, more than five million people were before that, and with the outbreak of the Great War in this Guanzhong, the entire Guanzhong was reduced to a battlefield.

Although Yang Guang and Li Shimin were extremely restrained, they would inevitably cause damage to Guanzhong, and now the total population may have fallen to more than 4 million.

Even if Guanzhong only has a total population of four million, its heritage is not comparable to Liangzhou, not to mention that there are two other forces in Liangzhou, Ma Teng and Han Sui.

Yang Guang wanted to rely on the weak Liangzhou to defeat Li Shimin, who had Yongzhou and Hanzhong, which was undoubtedly extremely difficult, so he wanted to increase the foundation of Liangzhou by relocating the people of Guanzhong.

Yang Guang couldn't wait to move away one million people directly, but his territory simply accepted so many people, and Li Shimin couldn't watch him dig the roots of Yongzhou and be indifferent, so in the end, Yang Guang only moved away 500,000 people, and this was already the limit of what he could digest in Liangzhou's territory.

The impact of Yang Guang's initiative to retreat to Liangzhou is not small, which proves that he lost to Li Shimin, and he has to completely break away from the Liang army and carry the banner of 'Sui' on his own.

Most of the Sui team left by Yang Jian to Yang Guang are still very loyal, but there are not a few people who leave Yang Guang because of this.

Yang Jian didn't deal with Yang Jian, but he didn't have a good sense of Yang Guang, so he would obey Yang Guang's orders.

After the Battle of Guanzhong began, more than one person in the Yang family came to persuade Yang Jian to join Li Shimin, but Yang Jian saw that Yang Guang had just lost his father, so he couldn't bear to leave Yang Guang, and he was worried that he would keep his tongue, so he didn't leave.

Yang Jian thought that if he assisted Yang Guang to enter the main pass, he would be the first hero of the Sui army, and his family would definitely be loyal to Yang Guang at that time.

But Yang Guang finally lost to Li Shimin, so Yang Jian naturally would not turn his back on the family for him, not to mention that the person he loved was still in Chang'an.

Yang Jian asked himself if he had done his best to Yang Guang, without him, Yang Guang would have lost to Li Shimin a long time ago, so although he was ready to leave Yang Guang, he did not hide it.

But what Yang Jian didn't expect was that Yang Guangdu hadn't said anything yet, but there were disagreements between several of his righteous brothers.

"The third, fourth, fifth, and sixth, you said you want to stay and follow Yang Guang?"

Yang Jian's face was incredulous, he couldn't believe that the righteous brothers were going to leave him and follow Yang Guang, who had no future.

"That's right."

Li Huanzhang, the third of the six brothers in Meishan, stood up and said in a deep voice: "Second master, the king of Sui is very kind to us, and he is a rare master, and the brother has decided to be loyal to him and never betray. ”

"What about you?" Yang Jian asked with a sinking face,

The fourth Yao Gonglin, the fifth Zhijian, the sixth Guo Shen, after the three of them glanced at each other, Guo Shen stood up and said: "Second master, you also stayed with us, the lord he values you the most, if you stay, it will definitely be above 10,000 people under one person." ”

"Yes, second master."

Four of the six Meishan brothers decided to take refuge in Yang Guang, mainly because the four of them had killed the senior generals of the Tang Army in the Battle of Guanzhong, which was considered to have offended Li Shimin more ruthlessly, and Yang Guang's sincere attraction to them did move the four of them, so they decided to leave Yang Jian and join Yang Guang.

Yang Jian was silent for a long time, and finally sighed and said, "The Tao is not the same. ”

In the end, Yang Jian only took Kang Anyu, the eldest of the six Meishan brothers, and the second eldest Zhang Boshi left the Sui army, and Yang Guang sent him off with tears, but he still failed to leave Yang Jian.

Regarding whether to let Yang Jian leave, Yang Guang was extremely entangled in his heart.

Yang Guang naturally didn't want Yang Jian to leave, after all, Yang Jian was the first fierce general of the Sui army, and only Yang Jian could fight against Li Yuanba.

But Yang Jian was bent on leaving, Yang Guang couldn't stop him at all, and Yang Jian was not his subordinate at all, and he was just helping before, so he didn't even have a reason to stay with Yang Jian.

The Yang family has already taken refuge in Li Shimin, so Yang Jian's departure this time is most likely to be thrown into the arms of Li Shimin, and Li Shimin is Yang Guang's biggest enemy.

Shi Wansui and Wu Yunzhao both proposed that they would rather get rid of Yang Jian, and they must not cheap Li Shimin, otherwise they would have to face Li Yuanba and Yang Jian.

Yang Guang weighed the pros and cons and vetoed this plan, because he was not absolutely sure that he could keep Yang Jian, after all, for a fierce general of Yang Jian's level, the number of people did not play much role.

Yang Guang actually considered this method of poisoning, but still vetoed it.

Yang Jian is different from Li Yuanba, he is not only a fierce general, but also a general with both civil and military skills, and he must not eat anything given by Yang Guang at this time, and once it is discovered, the two sides will really have an undying enmity.

In addition to these, Yang Guang is also afraid that killing Yang Jian will make the Meishan brothers who take refuge in him feel cold, and they are all capable generals.

Yang Jian guessed that Yang Guang might come hard or even yin in order to keep him, but he didn't expect that he hadn't met ten miles away from the camp, and he couldn't help but understand why the four righteous brothers followed Yang Guang.

"King Sui, Yang Jian swears here, no matter who he is loyal to in the future, he will definitely not be your enemy, if you violate this oath, you will definitely thunder and thunder."

Yang Guang saw that Yang Jian had made such a poisonous oath, and he couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, at least he would not face Yang Jian and Li Yuanba at the same time in the future.

What Yang Guang didn't know was that Yang Jian's departure was just the beginning, and then Hou Yi also left a book and left, and led his 3,000 elite soldiers to detour to Longxi, and went to Liu Ji before entering Shu.

The successive departures of Yang Jian and Hou Yi caused turmoil in the Sui army that lost Guanzhong, and even Lu Bu in Liangzhou had the idea of leaving.

"Lord, what are you still hesitating about, after Ding Yuanjun died in battle, we were forced to surrender, and we were not reused after surrendering, so why do you continue to work hard for him Yang Guang." Wei continued to persuade.

"Yes, our family is still in Qin Hao's hands, after all these years, he has not been coerced in the slightest, although Qin Hao has taken away our Jingzhou, but he has indeed done his duty to our family." Hao Meng said.

"Lord, now that Dong Zhuo is dead, the split of Liangzhou is the best opportunity for us to break away from the Liang army, you must not miss it." Cao Xuan said.

When Dong Zhuocai died, Lu Bu wanted to break away from the Liang army, but Yang Jian looked at him too strictly, and he couldn't find a chance to leave.

Now that the Sui family has gone and descended, they don't have the energy to continue to monitor him, so Lu Bu naturally won't let go of this good opportunity.

Looking at these old brothers, Lu Bu stood up and said in a deep voice: "Immediately pull out the camp, go to Hetao, and defect to Qin Wen." ”

"No."

In this way, the 3,000 Jingzhou army, under the leadership of Lu Bu, marched all the way to the northeast in the direction of Hetao.

At this point, the three super god generals owned by the Sui army all broke away from the Sui army and turned to others.
