After Li Yuan discussed with everyone, he decided to issue an edict first to muddy the water in Taiyuan and Yanmen, and then send people to keep an eye on Gao Junya and Wang Wei, and at the appropriate time, to carry out iron-blooded suppression, and the third part is to be ready to recruit troops at any time, do a good job in military supplies, grain and grass, etc., and take precautions.

The people discussed until midnight, and they all returned full of joy, looking forward to the day when the army would rise.

The next day, there was a news that quickly came to Taiyuan, Liu Wuzhou of Mayi County had killed Wang Rengong, the Taishou, and had gathered a crowd to raise troops.

Mayi County is outside Yanmen Pass, is a county bordering the grassland in the Central Plains, when the Great Sui divided the Eastern and Western Turks, leaving the eastern Turks in the grassland north of Yanmen, Mayi County was only to contact with the Turks, strengthen communication and economic exchanges, but also to protect the Eastern Turks, to counter the Western Turks.

Twenty years later, Mayi County formed a certain scale, in which Han and Hu people lived together, with a population of more than 100,000.

Liu Wuzhou's ancestral home is Hejian Jingcheng, when he was a child, he moved to Mayi with his father's family, he practiced martial arts as a teenager, he had been instructed by a folk boxer, his fists and feet were good, and his character was resolute, he loved to fight unevenly, he was quite famous in the local green forest, he enlisted in the army when he was young, he was brave and good at fighting, he was promoted to the captain of Jianjie, and participated in the three expeditions to Liaodong, as well as the siege of Yanmen.

With some military exploits, after he returned to Mayi, he was already the deputy general of the Yingyang Mansion, and Wang Rengong admired this military general very much, so he invited him to a banquet in the mansion several times, hoping to win over him into a capable general, who knew that Liu Wuzhou had been to the Taishou Mansion several times, and had an affair with Wang Rengong's concubine, and after a long time, Wang Rengong noticed it, just waiting for the plan to catch the rapist in bed, and then clean up the two.

Liu Wuzhou made the first move, taking advantage of Wang Rengong's excuse not to open a warehouse to release grain, inciting the masses to make trouble, personally leading people to take people by surprise, beheading Wang Rengong, and then opening a warehouse to relieve the people, win over the people's hearts, and gather people to raise troops.

As a result, Mayi County became one of the anti-Sui forces.

However, Liu Wuzhou knew that Ma Yi was outside the Yanmen Pass, there was no natural danger to defend, the north was Turkic, the south was the Sui army, the belly was the enemy, and the soldiers were taboo, so after Liu Wuzhou raised the army, he immediately sent people to the Turks to meet Shibi Khan, and planned to give the Turks a large amount of gold, silver, jewelry and beauties in exchange for the support of the Turks.

There is a palace established by Emperor Yang of Sui in the northern Xinjiang in Mayi County, which has countless gold, silver and jewelry, and beautiful women like clouds, Liu Wuzhou sent people to transport them, half of them were sent to the Turks to Shibi Khan, and half were left for military salaries.

Shibi Khan got a large number of jewels and beauties for no reason, and he was naturally very happy, and he was also able to provoke a civil war among the Central Plains people and weaken the power of the Great Sui, so why not? Therefore, he sent someone to give Liu Wuzhou a thousand war horses, and sent a messenger to make Liu Wuzhou "Dingyang Khan", which means that he can pacify the Yang family.

After Liu Wuzhou got the promise of Shibi Khan, he chose a day to be called the emperor, Jianyuan was "Tianxing", some of his friends in the green forest, and his comrades in arms in Pao Ze followed the rising tide and were named generals, with Yang Funian as the left servant, his sister-in-law Fan Junzhang as the internal history order, Song Jingang as the general, as well as Lu Chongmao, Xunxiang, Zhang Wanzai and others, all of whom were given titles, and a small regime was born.

This news stimulated the heroes in the northwest, and the Jincheng Mansion Lang general Xue Ju also took the opportunity to kill the county commander Hao Ming, gathered the crowd to raise troops, and proclaimed himself the overlord of Western Qin, with the year name Qin Xing, and named Xue Rengao as the Duke of Qi, and the youngest son Xue Renyue as the Duke of Jin.

Western Qin was also recruiting troops and horses, recruiting bandits, plundering officials and horses, the number of people expanded from the initial 20,000 to 50,000 or 60,000, the soldiers were very sharp, and the cities were captured everywhere.

Wuwei County, Northwest China.

After Sima Li Liang of Yingyang Mansion went to Xue to raise his troops, he also had an idea in his heart, and secretly convened Cao Zhen, Guan Jin, Liang Shuo, Li Yun, An Xiuren and others from the same county to discuss.

Li Liang analyzed: "Xue Ju is brutal and fierce, and he will come to harass after raising troops, and my county officials are weak and timid, and they are not enough to discuss major matters." Now we should do our best to occupy the right side of the river and watch the changes in the world, how can we tie our hands and let our wives and children be plundered by others? ”

The people agreed to this plan and agreed to raise troops together, but no one dared to be the leader.

Cao Zhen said: "I heard that the book says that the Li family should be called the king of the world; Now that Li Liang is virtuous, and he should proverb, isn't it providence! ”

"Yes, follow Brother Li's arrangement!" Everyone agreed.

That night, Li Rail was the leader, arranged many details of the uprising, so that An Xiuren led the Hu people into the inner garden city at night, the tree flag shouted, Li Rail gathered everyone to respond, and captured the Tiger Benlang general Xie Tongshi and the county Cheng Wei Shizheng, so he proclaimed himself the king of Hexi Daliang, signed the official subordinates, and gathered troops to prepare to resist the suppression of the Sui army, as well as the attack of Xue Jujun's army.

Shuofang County.

Liang Shi is a wealthy family of Shuofang, appointed as a general of Yingyang Mansion, has military power in his hands, learned that Jincheng Xue Ju, Wuwei Li Rail successively raised troops, he was not willing to continue to be a Sui general, so he won over the children of local wealthy families, as well as green forest bandits, plus the soldiers in their hands, killed Shuofang County Cheng Tang Shizong, occupied Shuofang County to rebel, proclaimed himself the prime minister, and sent people to envoy to the Turks, emulating Liu Wuzhou, filial piety to Shibi Khan, and getting Turkic support and soldiers, resisting the Sui court.

There are also many heroes under the account, such as the strategist Lu Ji, military generals such as Zhang Ju, Xin Fang'er, Li Zhengbao, Feng Duan, Liu Min, etc., and the soldiers and horses have expanded from 30,000 to 70,000 or 80,000.
