Chapter 447: Digging a Pit and Grabbing Merit
In order to quell the rebellion, Yang Lin, the king of the backer, Qiu Rui, the king of Changping, and Zhang Xutuo and other pillars of the Great Sui Dynasty put out fires everywhere, and even Yang Yichen was reactivated.
But there are many rebels in the world, in addition to the emerging rebel forces in various places, there are also the eighteen-way anti-king, and the demon king of the mixed world in Wagang, Cheng Biting Jin.
Even Boliao and Dong. The Turks are eyeing each other.
It can be said that the Great Sui is completely out of control of the situation.
As the emperor, Yang Guang gave up on himself, drinking and having fun with Zhu Guier every day in the palace, not only did he not care much about the world's major affairs, but even recruited people to continue to improve Ziwei Palace.
So much so that the people began to complain, saying: A Fangcheng, Qin people scattered: Zhang Hua, Chu Zhongli; Crape myrtle stands, Sui Di divides.
At the same time, under the tandem of Li Mi, Zhai Rang and others, the leaders of the anti-kings and rebel armies from all walks of life suddenly elected the demon king of the mixed world of Wagang as the leader of the alliance, and completely pushed Wagang to the opposite side of the Great Sui.
Yang Guang naturally couldn't turn a blind eye to such a showy Wagang, so after the local heroes failed one after another, he successively sent Wei Wentong and Zuo Tiancheng to crusade, but they all returned defeated.
The successive failures made Yang Guang thunderous, and urgently recruited Pei Ju, Pei Yun, and Yu Shiji into the palace to discuss the extermination of Wagang.
Pei Yunjin said: "Your Majesty, now that King Song is about to return to Daxing, why don't you send him to exterminate the thieves in Wagang?" As long as King Song arrives, he will definitely be able to destroy all the thieves in Wagang. ”
Yang Guang was a little moved when he heard this.
Pei Ju didn't look good, and said: "Your Majesty, don't!" ”
Without waiting for Yang Guang to speak, Pei Yun preemptively said, "Why not?" Could it be that Pei Shangshu thinks that King Song is not the opponent of the Wagang bandits? ”
When Pei Yun said this, he was very sure of Liu Wen's ability on the surface, but in fact, he was digging a pit in secret. As long as Pei Ju said the cousin relationship between Liu Wen and Qin Qiong, without Pei Yunjin's slander, Yang Guang would naturally have all kinds of suspicions and suspicions.
Pei Ju is also an old slippery head, and even compared to Pei Yun, he is a little more clever, so he knew Pei Yun's tricks as soon as he heard it, he did not argue with Pei Yun openly, but said to Yang Guangjin:
"Your Majesty, Wagang seems to be powerful, but the internal forces are complicated, as long as enough pressure is exerted on them, it will definitely expand its contradictions and then fall apart."
"Sending the King of Song now is tantamount to putting the King of Song in a position that is incompatible with Wagang in advance. At that time, if you want to rely on the relationship between King Song and Qin Qiong to turn it all in, it will be impossible. ”
"In the opinion of the ministers, it is better to send Pei Renji, the general town of Shanmaguan, as the commander, let him take his son Pei Yuanqing to attack Wagang and rebel, and wait until the time of victory, and then let the King of Song persuade Qin Qiong and others to surrender, and let Qin Qiong and others make meritorious contributions."
"When the time comes, the boss of the anti-thief alliance will crusade against all kinds of anti-thieves, which can also play a greater deterrent effect, so that they dare not rebel ......"
Pei Ju was clever and drew a big cake for Yang Guang, and Yang Guang laughed when he said it.
"Good! Aiqing's words are really a good strategy for Lao Cheng to hold the country! ”
Pei Yun didn't hear it well.
That Pei Yuanqing was quite dazzling in the martial arts, and with Qin Qiong's strength, he was really not an opponent.
Pei Ju's strategy may really be successful.
At that time, not only will the problem be solved, but they will even make meritorious contributions because of this recommendation, and Pei Renji's father and son will not be grateful to Pei Ju because of this recommendation.
Since there is no way to take him and Liu Wen by himself, let's grab the credit first.
Flashing this thought, Pei Yun hurriedly said before Yang Guang made an order: "Your Majesty, that Pei Renji is just a small town, and his qualifications and experience are not enough to be handsome. The minister felt that it would be better to make him the deputy marshal. ”
After hearing this, Yang Guang felt that it made sense and asked, "Then who do you think can be the commander?" ”
"Doctor Jin Ziguanglu, Duan Da." Pei Yun was secretly proud after speaking.
The heart said that even if you have a good plan, what can you do? In the end, you won't let me pick peaches?
This section is a native of Wuwei Guzang, the son of Duan Yan of Shuozhou in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. This man was good-looking, with a long beard and a beautiful beard, and was good at riding and shooting, so he took refuge with Yang before he became emperor and was made the governor of the capital. Later, he befriended Yang Guang and was a close minister before Yang Guang succeeded to the throne.
After Yang Guang ascended the throne, he was named General Zuo Yiwei.
Although Duan Da's ability is not very strong, he is loyal to Yang Guang. Before attacking Tuyuhun, he also went out with him, and after rubbing some military merits, he was crowned Doctor Jin Ziguanglu and moved to the left of General Xiaowei.
However, this person is also very greedy, and fellow villager Li Liang bought officials, and he took the path of Duan Da.
If Yang Guang hadn't known his loyalty, he would have beheaded this section a long time ago.
After listening to Pei Yun at this moment, Yang Guang guessed his plan.
After thinking about it in his heart, instead of giving all the credit to Pei Renji's foreign minister, it was better to let Duan Da take this opportunity to make a great contribution.
Anyway, Pei's father and son have the ability, and they will have the opportunity to be promoted in the future.
This time, let's get a cheap Duanda.
Flashing this thought, Yang Guang nodded and said good, and immediately issued an order to summon Pei Renji and his son to Beijing.
Pei Yun's conspiracy succeeded, and he glanced at Pei Ju with some pride, but he didn't expect Pei Ju to have a completely detached posture, as if he didn't care about anything, which made Pei Yun feel like he was punching in the air.
The original bit of pride was suddenly swept away.
Pei Yun also knew that Liu Wen, the king of Song, had a good personal relationship with Pei Ju.
Because he was unhappy, Pei Yun thought of an idea that disgusted Liu Wen and made Pei Ju uncomfortable, so he smiled and said again:
"Your Majesty, although Uncle Ma is loyal, he doesn't have any outstanding talents. You put him in charge of digging the canal, and although he can do it very seriously, he is too cowardly to suppress the scene, so he will let the mob rebel. ”
"You say that, is there a suitable replacement for him?" Yang Guang asked.
"Yes." Pei Yun smiled and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you let King Song preside over this matter?" Before the king of the Song Dynasty conquered the south and chased the north, the turian Khan who pursued and killed fled in the wilderness, and everyone at home and abroad was afraid to obey. If the king of Song presided over this matter, who else would be afraid to rebel? ”
After Pei Yun finished speaking, he gave Yu Shiji a look. Yu Shiji hurriedly followed: "Your Majesty, this is true, with King Song in charge, why worry about the big thing?" ”
Watching these two people sing and harmonize, digging a pit for Liu Wen, Pei Ju was silent.
He knew the calculations of the two.
This digging canal is not a simple project, not to mention that Yang Guang will travel to the south of the Yangtze River next year. If Liu Wen presses the people too hard, there will definitely be people who rebel, and if he is too relaxed, he will not be able to meet Yang Guang's requirements.
No matter what, Yang Guang's small goal of traveling to Jiangnan next year will not be completed.
When the time comes, Liu Wen will definitely be responsible for this.
However, Pei Ju did not persuade.
Liu Wen sits in Songzhou and is deeply loved by the local people, and when the time comes, some people will be recruited to help dig the canal, and someone will definitely preside over it.
Moreover, Liu Wen completely took advantage of this excavation of the canal to secretly infiltrate his forces into Lianghuai, Luoyang and other places.
Looking at the two people with a vicious smile in their eyes, Pei Ju was disdainful in his heart: You are proud, you usually like to be a little smart, the overall situation is unknown, wait until the dynasty changes, see what will happen to you!
