Chapter 790: The Great Trend (17)
A living signboard like the eldest grandson Shunde naturally has to be used.
Even the eldest Sun Shunde himself has this awareness, the rapid fall, there are natural advantages and disadvantages, you are so simple today, I am in trouble on a different day, are you running faster than others?
And the eldest grandson is the in-law of the Li family, although he is inferior to the Dou family, the Xiao family, etc., but he has hugged the thigh of the king of Qin before, and everything is based on the king of Qin, and he is an out-and-out party of the king of Qin.
Now the unlucky is unlucky here, the King of Qin was defeated, and their people who came to Chang'an from Luoyang were particularly embarrassed.
You say that they are prominent, and they are indeed prominent, they have been officials in their families for generations, and they are also famous and surnamed high-ranking lords in the Eastern Capital, but you say that they can be ranked with the Kansai lords, which is not necessarily true.
They don't have any foundation in Kansai, otherwise they wouldn't have hanged themselves on a tree in King Qin, and it's not because they have shallow roots in Kansai that they have to do it.
What annoys them even more is that the Dongdu clan has been fighting against the Kansai family for some years, and once they rush over, they will inevitably be greatly excluded, so life is not as easy as it seems.
For example, the eldest grandson Shunde's uncle and nephew, who lived in Kansai were trembling, and were demoted out of Beijing several times, and the eldest grandson Shunde returned to Beijing not long ago, and his nephew Changsun Wuji has been in Chang'an County for three years.
It's good now, not only is the backer gone, but the uncle and nephew are about to become prisoners of the subordinates, how can the center be sour for outsiders?
So even if it comes down faster, there are deep-seated reasons, if the Li family doesn't succeed, the eldest grandson will inevitably find another way out, and it will have to catch up with the Kansai people.
And when it is used to do so, it can only be reluctantly recognized? Do you still have to make a gesture of gratitude? As for the reputation of the eldest grandson, how can I care about so much now.
Of course? Children of a big clan like them? There must be its confidence, at this point? The eldest grandson, Shunde, was never presumptuous, and he believed that the Han king would soon discover the value of their eldest grandson.
…………………………………………
Li Po doesn't have time to take care of too much now? Chang'an City has finally opened its arms? It was a historic moment, and it was in his hands, and that indescribable emotion was churning in his chest again.
Only he himself understands that he has created a whole new history? It has also been changed by history.
Is the times creating heroes? Or is it that the hero created the situation, which no longer matters in the face of fait accompli, more than ten years have passed since the army was raised in Yunnei, and now he looks back? He can say for sure that he didn't waste any time? didn't live up to God's favor, although he often had to mumble a few words about God's lack of eyes or something.
Having a lot of thoughts? He was surrounded by everyone and came to the city of Chang'an.
Time passes slowly in waiting, and the outside world is so noisy? Let Li Po gradually frown? The people who are always watching him? And their hearts were lifted.
Many people, including the eldest grandson Shunde, are thinking, is the King of Han too slow to enter the city?
In fact, the speed of the army entering the city was very fast, and most of the generals couldn't wait, so they almost wanted to fly into Chang'an City with wings.
Although a lot of details were agreed upon, it was dark and chaos was inevitable when the final implementation was carried out.
With the help of the generals of the eldest grandson Shunde, the soldiers of the Tang army laid down their swords one after another, and handed over the key points of the city defense in the north of the city to the Jin army one after another.
As the army entered the city, the defenders of the Tang Army in all other directions also got the news, so the hesitant people immediately made up their minds, and the messenger who asked for surrender quickly appeared in front of Li Po.
Hardly anyone in the defenders of the outer city wanted to resist stubbornly, and even the victors would be embarrassed by such a performance.
There were still a few small-scale fights, and they didn't use the Jin army at all, and they were all quickly suppressed by their old comrades.
This process is very similar to when Li Yuan led the army into the city, everyone surrendered to the city one after another, and rushed into Chang'an City without much effort, until the time of the inner city encountered the stubborn resistance of Yin Shishi and others.
It was a little unbelievable, and when the news reached Li Po's ears like flowing water, under the explanation of the eldest grandson Shunde, Li Po reacted quickly.
He did not order his generals to take over the city defense of the four cities, but ordered the troops to be stationed on the spot and not to move, and ordered them to strictly prevent anyone from making trouble.
This largely avoids confusion.
But then again, this night is undoubtedly the most chaotic night in Chang'an City in recent years.
This is a large city inhabited by hundreds of thousands of people, and it is the only city in the world that is like this, and when it falls, it is also extraordinary.
Not long after the army entered the city, the city finally stirred up and spread out like ripples.
At this time, those real bad guys all came out, and the city fox society rat poked out their brains, some soldiers in the army, some officials in the yamen, some people with grudges, politicians with ulterior motives, and so on.
Raiding homes and robbing houses is the theme, killing people and setting fire is incidental, everything that can happen in the fall of a city can be found in Chang'an City at this time.
It's just that the microcosm is the epitome, and it can't really destroy the big city, because the fire is not big enough, the chaos is not thorough enough, the people are not crazy enough, and the most important thing is that someone is firmly maintaining the basic order.
"Don't go out."
"Death to an armed brawler in the market."
"Those who trespass on people's houses, kill people and set fires to death, and those who build silver captives die."
To the sound of horses' hooves, a procession of knights, carrying torches, began to parade from street to market, shouting so loudly that the idlers could not go out.
In fact, since the siege of the Jin army, the Tang army has already imposed a curfew, unless it is necessary, ordinary people will not even go out during the day, and now during the period when the army enters the city, almost all those who dare to wander around in the street market are bandits, and it is not a pity to die.
When the moon was in the middle of the sky, the Jin army finally controlled the city defense of the outer city of Chang'an, and the generals of the Tang army who surrendered to Shun nervously restrained their soldiers, and sent messengers to ask to meet His Royal Highness the King of Han, in case others went to give themselves some eye medicine or something.
Li Po can only continue to appease, and let people go to explain that the enemy and me are unknown at night, so please wait for the dawn with peace of mind, so as not to cause a tragedy in a panic.
It was not until the riots in the city gradually subsided and the sky was slightly brightened that Li Po entered Chang'an City surrounded by everyone.
The change of defense in the four cities also began one after another, and the soldiers of the Tang Army returned to their camps in the city one by one under the supervision of the Jin army.
The generals of the Tang Army also came to Li Po one after another to meet them, no matter their background, or power, almost none of them were worse than the eldest grandson Shunde, with different postures and temperaments, but their sincerity was very firm.
The posture is very consistent, trying his best to welcome the new master, but he will not say a bad word about the old master, and he is very measured.
Of course, they are all people who are trusted by Li Yuan, and saying bad things about the old master is tantamount to slapping himself in the face......
And among them, for example, Li Yuan, the prince of Huangtai County, is Li Yuan's cousin, and it has not been a few days since he came back from Shuzhong, so it is estimated that the intestines of regret are almost green, and he tightened his head, for fear that Li Po would find his head and use him to kill chickens and monkeys.
When he had to speak in front of Li Po, in addition to his usual rhetoric, he also said faintly, don't look at my surname Li, and Li Yuan is a family, but he has some friendship with Li Jing, when he was in Shuzhong, if it weren't for him Li Jin, Li Jing might have been bad.
He is Li Jing's life-saving benefactor, and Li Po doesn't know if what he said is true or not, but he knows that this person is very scared and a little cowardly in temperament.
There is also a general like Dou Cong, who is also a relative of the Li family in Guanxi, this person is very arrogant, and he has no idea that his brother Dou Liang is lying half-dead in the military camp outside the city, and if his head is cut off, his brother will also lose his life.
Dou Cong is actually different from others, like the eldest grandson Shunde, Li Ying and the like all started with Xunyin, and they voted for Li Yuan very early, but on the way south, they all started from Ping, and did not personally lead the troops to fight.
But Dou Cong is a real leading general, and he has really seen battles with the Sui army, and he has won the title of official because of his military merits, which is much stronger than other Li clan relatives.
As a leading general, his temper has never been very good, and he voted for Li Yuan not because of anything else, but after breaking the law, he died in Taiyuan.
What's even more worrying for him is that this guy was named the prince of Fufeng County, and Fufeng is also the hometown of Li Po, the king of Han, and he has already given his hometown to his sister-in-law, do you say that Dou Cong is dangerous?
It's just that Li Po will definitely not take care of him too much, as soon as he entered Chang'an City, a large number of nobles rushed up, each of them seemed to have a name and a surname, and in a place like Chang'an City, each of them didn't seem to be very conspicuous.
Li Po said some words to them to stabilize their emotions, this is what Li Po is very good at, there is no need to elaborate, when he was in Yunnei, he was able to entertain Li Er, Dou Dan and other Kansai nobles, and let them speak for themselves, now that you are the king of Han, you don't have to make more effort.
chose Li Ying to accompany him, and everyone saw that there was a feeling of sadness and sadness of the death of a rabbit and a fox, but it was inevitable to gloat, and the people in Kansai were not monolithic.
The sky finally brightened, and the last link arrived, the inner city of Chang'an......
The army began to enter the north city gate, in fact, it was not far from the imperial city, and in the dark night, the loudest shouting in Chang'an City was the south gate of the imperial city, Hanguang Gate, Vermilion Bird Gate, and near the south gate of the gate.
The infighting of the Tang army was extremely specific there.
