Chapter Twenty-Three: Half a Year Later, the World Trend

(If you owe it for the update, you will definitely make up for it later, I hope the brothers will vote for me to give me a recommendation, just to keep the top ten new books in history!) Tsing Yi is grateful! )

It is said that Li Zitong led an army of 20,000 imperial courts and forced Han Baohu to step down, Han Baohu learned the news, and was depressed all day long, but in March, he died suddenly, and before he died, he dismissed all the loyal people under him, and he looked up to the sky and let out a long roar, and then he lost his breath.

Li Zitong got the 20,000 troops of Han Hu Jiangdong, plus the 20,000 troops of the imperial court, and the 20,000 troops under his own account, with a total of 60,000 soldiers and horses, sitting firmly in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, collecting the hearts of the people everywhere, and the strength was close to 80,000.

Instead of building a little canal for Emperor Yang of Sui, Li Zitong incited the people's hearts and scolded Yang Guang for being so harsh on taxes, tyranny and abandoning the people of the world.

As a result, the people were furious, and their hearts became stronger day by day, and they were attached to Li Zitong's territory, and Li Zitong also became the strongest warlord in Jiangnan.

The side that broke the earth, disobeyed the government, established himself as the king of Chu, and tried to rebel, but he has been waiting for the time to be ripe, that is, the time to unify Jiangnan.

When Yang Guang heard this, he directly killed the two eunuchs who reported the information with a sword, "This Li Zitong, who was raised by his mother, actually dared to deceive my 20,000 soldiers and horses, and even claimed the title of king!" ”

"Your Majesty, then do you want to ask the king of the mountain to recruit such an unrighteous and unfilial traitor?" Yu Wenhua and his face are full of insidiousness, but he has a desire that he can't see through.

"Forget it, there's no need, tell Li Mi to quickly gather those common people in the three states of Hebei for me, and build the canal for me to quickly build within half a year, and when I go south, I will definitely teach Li Zitong that dog thief to live better than death!" Yang Guang's face was full of anger and dissatisfaction.

Yang Guang actually used coercion to force Li Mi to bring 300,000 people from Yuzhou, Xuzhou, Qingzhou, and Sanzhou in Hebei, regardless of age or age, to build a canal.

It is not easy to build a canal in backward ancient production, everything depends on hand, and it is nothing more than a hoe and a hand, once someone relaxes, he will be directly whipped to death.

A few canals, I don't know how many innocent people are buried with white bones.

In this way, there must be people who are unwilling to build the canal, what if they are not willing to do it? Quite simply, dead people never have to work!

For the tyranny of Emperor Yang of Sui, the people of the world complained, but still no one stood up to openly rebel.

In the past six months or so, Du Fuwei of Huainan has adjusted his policy in the same way as Chen Tian's army, and the army has directly increased from the original 30,000 to 40,000.

And they are all troops that have been strictly trained by Deng Ai, with strict military discipline and brave combat.

There are more Kan Ling, Wang Xiongdan and other fierce generals in their hands, which can be said to be in the south of the Yangtze River, occupying natural dangers, not to mention taking foreign territories, splitting the land and sticking to one side, it is definitely not a problem.

But how can the people who are overlords be willing to submit to others?

Du Fuwei saw that Li Zitong proclaimed himself the king of Chu in Hailing, and Du Fuwei called himself the king of Wu in order to deter Jiangnan, occupying the entire southeast Huai region.

Looking at Chen Tian for more than half a year, he has been in obscurity, under the banner of the King of Qiantang, recruiting the forces of the Southern Chen Army, and the number of troops has increased from 6,000 to 8,000.

Chen Tian implemented benevolent governance, did everything for the people in the city, and won the strong support of the people, but he also governed the army in a good way, and rewarded and punished strictly.

The people who moved from Jiangzhou and the people of Nanyang got along harmoniously, and their political achievements were clear, and the entire Nanyang City did not close their doors at night and did not leave anything to be left behind at night.

Chen Tian didn't slack off because of this, he knew very well that although he was also sitting on the same place at the moment, his strength could be said to be the weakest among the many forces.

In Chen Tian's eyes, a monarch must have the ability to protect himself, and he can't rely on his subordinates for everything.

In the evening, he discussed the art of war with Lu Xun, Xu Maogong and others, and personally assessed his political performance, Xu Maogong and Lu Xun were also pleased with the King of Qiantang in front of them, which was really different from the past.

The strength of the three parties divided Jiangnan, and no one dared to make a move at anyone, and if they made a move, they were afraid that they would be attacked by the other side, but they kept preparing for the army and fully preparing for war.

Li Yuan, who was demoted to Taiyuan by Yang Guang, was also like Chen Tian, recruited troops, and slowly expanded his strength to more than 10,000 troops.

And that Li Yuanba, who was also immersed in martial arts all day long, had infinite strength, two drum urns and golden hammers in his hands, each weighing 400 catties, and cruelly tore several teaching masters.

Li Yuan was also helpless that this son was so ferocious, and directly locked him with King Kong Xuantie.

But helplessly, Li Yuanba roared like a tiger roar all day long, and only Li Shimin personally comforted him could he settle down, and the entire Li clan slowly became stronger again.

Yang Lin, the king of the backer, sat on most of the soldiers and horses of the Great Sui Dynasty, and nearly 400,000 soldiers and horses sat in Dengzhou, destroying more than a dozen opposing forces in a row, winning consecutive battles, and no one dared to provoke.

Shandong, on the other hand, is also in the midst of a quiet period before the storm.

In troubled times, who is the people's will?

In that distant Mobei, a secret team is carrying out a secret and crazy expansion of the Turkic tribes, and no one knows about it!

Please see next time!
