Chapter 686: Founding of the People's Republic of China, Qin

By the afternoon of this day, the battle of blocking the canyon was completely successful, and the 7,600 people of the Tubo Aduya division who entered the canyon were all annihilated, and the main general Aduya was captured. On the Youzhou side, Shi Xiong's 3rd Division had 14,000 men in the main force, Shi Xianzhong's 1st Division, and Qian Duoduo's 9th Division each with 1,000 men, totaling 22,000 men.

When the armies were still cleaning up the battlefield, Xi Xiangling said to Shi Xiong: "I will go back immediately to report the results of the battle, and please make a pertinent assessment of the combat strength of the Tubo people." ”

Shi Xiong said: "Please tell King Yan that the combat strength of the Tubo people is not weak, and our army does not have an absolute advantage in a head-to-head confrontation." Be cautious. ”

Xi Xiangling said take care and go to Tongzhou. At this moment, Shi Xianzhong has crossed the Yellow River, is stationed in the same state, Li Mao also rushed over from Wolong Mountain, the departments were defeated, Liu Wu and Li Quanzhong were making a fuss under Tongguan, Tubo was chasing after him, seeing that the situation was bad, Li Mao could only end the "secluded life" in advance, and crossed the river to Guanzhong, a place of right and wrong.

The first thing Li Mao did after arriving in Guanzhong was to block Aduya's pursuers, this step had been done, Shi Xiong set up an ambush in the canyon to block Tubo, but unexpectedly heavy fog fell from the sky, and the place where Aduya was stationed was extremely suitable for the use of flowering bombs, Shi Xiong temporarily changed his strategy, and turned the blocking battle into a war of annihilation, and miraculously annihilated Aduya.

After Li Mao's exaggeration of the battle of the canyon, not only the first capital of Chang'an was deeply shocked, but Liu Wu and Li Quanzhong were also shocked, and the two were forced to accept Li Mao's mediation, end the confrontation, and jointly protect Li Han to patrol the eastern capital.

Xi Xiangling reported in detail the causes and consequences of the battle of the gorge and the detailed process, and Shi Xiong's comments on the military strength of the Tubo army were also told to Li Mao word for word. Li Mao said: "Shi boldly made a decision on the spot, and turned the blocking battle into a war of annihilation, and it was a great achievement to fight well. However, he was too cautious this time, Aduya's department was the elite of Tibet, and the combat strength of the other departments was very average. ”

Chang Mucang said: "It's okay to be bold and cautious, it's okay to be careful." ”

Li Mao said: "Shi Daring is not bad, but General Shi is too cautious, and he always thinks that the Tubo people are very strong. Xi Xiangling turned around and went to him to cheer him up. ”

Li Mao dared to despise the fighting power of the Tubo people so much, and at the same time, Qian Duoduo, who crossed the river into Guanzhong, fought with the Tubo many times in the north of Weishui, and the battle was sure to be won and conquered. The reinforcements of the two towns of Suining and Xiasui also fought a series of encounters with the Tubo, with more victories and fewer defeats, and the armies had basically wiped out the Tubo forces that had infiltrated Weibei and were preparing to cross the river to the south.

At the beginning, he heard in Chang'an City that Aduya had been defeated, and Li Mao had crossed the river to enter Guanzhong by Youzhou Jiedu, and he heard that the various departments in Weibei had suffered a series of defeats, and he thought to himself: Li Tang is declining and inexhaustible, and the opportunity to destroy the country has not yet come. Chang'an is the foundation of the Tang Dynasty, and the envoys of various towns will flock to it in order to compete for merit, how can I resist alone?

After thinking hard for a day, he made an appointment to meet Pei Renyong and said: "The Tang Dynasty has exhausted its energy, internal and external resentment, the emperor hunts in the east, the empress dowager of the fourth palace refuses to follow, and the hundreds of officials in the court are unwilling to move with him, how can this son of heaven be a virtuous son of heaven?" Chang'an is surrounded by military towns, seeing that the Tang Emperor is in trouble, no one has helped, the mandate of heaven is like this, and we can only obey the fate. ”

At the beginning, Pei Renyong ascended the throne and became emperor in accordance with the mandate of heaven, and he signed an alliance with the new empire on behalf of Tibet, about a brotherly state, and supported each other.

The Pei family brothers knew that this was a pit, and it was a big pit, but they still couldn't help but feel excited. Pei Renjing persuaded Pei Renyong: "The day before yesterday, Aduya was defeated in the canyon, Li Mao crossed the river and went westward, and the emperor went to Luoyang again. Now that Chang'an is surrounded by armies, the three of us will not be able to escape after all. It's better to be an emperor when you die, and it's not in vain to come to this world. Pei Ren channel: "The second brother is too pessimistic. In my opinion, the Tang Dynasty has exhausted its qi, and the emperor is hunting in the east, and even the queen mother, concubines, and clans are ignored, so what do the people of the world think. Now that Li Mao has entered the Guanzhong, this person is ambitious and strong, but he is a smart and confused person, and he will not take the initiative to become the emperor in order to have a good reputation. Now I stand on behalf of Tang, seal the world, make an appointment with him as a brother, the eldest brother will be the emperor, let him also be the emperor, he will be half pushed, and he will not turn his face with me. Then the princes of Kwantung will be crowned kings one by one, and those who are willing to be emperors are about brothers, and everyone has an emperor to do, who cares if his old Li family lives or dies? ”

Pei Renjing responded excitedly: "Yes, yes, everyone is an emperor, and the big guys are happy together, even if they can't be the lord of the world, they are still the king of one party." Or we can make ten countries and eight countries, and everyone will tear the soil and become kings, and our sins will be written off. ”

Pei Renyong smiled: "Isn't it nonsense for the two virtuous brothers to say so much. At present, it is difficult to ride a tiger, not to be called the emperor, and the old man of the early capital is left alone, and we are about to be in great trouble. Be the emperor, muddy the waters, or there is a glimmer of life. Let's call it emperor. He died after three days, and he was the emperor once. ”

Pei Ren channel: "Big brother Hugh wants to say this, and my brother will follow you for thousands of generations." ”

The plan has been decided, and three days later, Pei Renyong announced the world in the name of the Empress Dowager Guo, saying that the Tang Dynasty has exhausted its qi, the destiny of heaven belongs to Qin, and Pei Renyong, a native of Puzhou, should be the lord of Guanzhong.

There are ministers on the table to ask Pei Renyong to succeed the emperor, Pei Renyong resigned three times, but the destiny of heaven is returned, not what he wants to let go, so Pei Renyong cried in front of the Li Tang Taimiao, had to stand on behalf of the Tang Dynasty, and ascended the throne in the Taiji Hall of Taiji Palace in Chang'an and called the emperor, and the founding number was Qin, while amnesty the world, and the other side rewarded the ministers. Named Pei Renjing as the king of Lu, worshiped the Taishi, and became the prime minister of Zuo, and named Pei Renqu as the king of Qi, worshiped the Taifu, and became the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses. He also used Guo Zhao as the right prime minister, respected the empress dowager of the fourth palace as the empress dowager of the Tang Kingdom, treated him as equal, moved out of the forbidden area, and settled in the Xianliang Temple in the north of the city.

Concluded an alliance with the Tubo Yan King and the Governor of Longxi to protect each other. The covenant was concluded, and the defense of Chang'an was returned to the emperor of the Great Qin State at the beginning, and he slowly returned to Longxi, and the treasures of the Tang Palace and the wealth of the rich family of Chang'an were not taken.

At first, I saw it very clearly, surrounded by wolves, if he carried the heavy treasures of the Tang Palace, he would not be able to return to Longxi.

Sure enough, the military horses of the Tang Dynasty gathered in Guanzhong were not interested in the departure of the first capital, and everyone's eyes were fixed on Chang'an and the Pei brothers. At the beginning of the retreat to Fengxiang, according to the soldiers, watching the movement in the Guanzhong, this expedition to the Guanzhong, laid down Chang'an, prestige in the Middle Earth, is a miracle, but the gain and loss, folded Aduya and nearly 10,000 elites, Chang'an City wealth and silk children did not fish, the heart is a little unbalanced.

He supported the Pei family brothers as emperors, firstly, to attract the Tang Junqin Wang Junma in order to retreat with his whole body, and secondly, he was also the heart of the Tang Dynasty, so as to take the chestnut from the fire.

Li Mao could not tolerate the western gateway of the Tang Dynasty being stolen by the Tubo, so he ordered Qian Duoduo to pursue the first capital along the north bank of Weishui, ordered Shi Xiong to pursue the first capital along the south bank of Weishui, and ordered the three military horses of Yan Qin, Manor, and Mother Sea to march to Chang'an.

Li Xianyi was overjoyed when he learned that Li Mao was chasing the first capital westward, and said to Liu Fengshan: "King Yan knows the soldiers, and if he doesn't get rid of them at the beginning, it will be difficult to settle in Guanzhong." Liu Fengshan said: "If Fengxiang falls into the hands of Taishi Li, I am afraid that Guanzhong will no longer be Li Tang's world." ”

Li Xianyi said with a smile: "Since Your Majesty escaped from Chang'an, this world is no longer Li Tang's world." ”

Liu Fengshan howled and cried, and Li Xianyi persuaded: "I told you a year ago that the sky has a vision, Li Tang's qi has been exhausted, you still don't believe it, what do you look at now?" The number of qi is sometimes exhausted, in the sky, not in people. How can manpower prevail? ”

Liu Fengshan said: "In this case, we should strive to the west, expel Tibet, occupy Fengxiang and Jingyuan, and only when we have soldiers and territory in our hands can we be invincible." ”

Li Xianyi said with a smile: "That's right if you think so, no matter who the world belongs to, we have soldiers and territory, no one dares to treat us badly, and we can be invincible." ”

At the moment, Li Xianyi collected the old troops and the scattered Shence army, got 30,000 soldiers, clamored to the west, rushed to Fengxiang City before Shi Xiong, besieged the city on three sides, and stormed the city for three days.

At first, they could not support it and were forced to retreat westward.

At this time, Qian Duoduo had recovered Suining and Jingzhou, and wanted to sum the first capital with Li Xianyi, but he didn't want Li Xianyi to just want to occupy Fengxiang City and let go of the first capital, and then divided his troops to take over Longzhou, and went out of the Kite Gorge, intercepted and returned to the first capital of Longxi, the two armies clashed repeatedly in the mountains of Longxi, and the first capital was defeated again and again, and Qian Duoduo killed the city of Yuanzhou in one go.

At first, he couldn't hold out, and sent an envoy to see Li Mao to ask for peace. At this time, Zhu Kerong approached Chang'an from the west and south, got off the camp, and sent another unit to take over the important military towns in Suining and Dunfang. Li Maozi couldn't tolerate Zhu Kerong running out to pick peaches, and ordered Shi Xiong to cross the Weishui to expel Zhu Kerong's forces. Fearing that he would lose, Li Mao agreed to the request of the first capital and put forward two conditions, one is to return the occupied Yuanzhou, and the other is to withdraw the Lingwu garrison, and promise not to invade the Tang border again.

Yuanzhou was besieged, and there was no capital to negotiate conditions at the beginning, so they had to agree one by one.

Qian Duoduo opened the net and returned to Longxi at the beginning, occupied Yuanzhou, and then divided his troops to take Lingwu. Lingwu guard general Hu Shen has been Pei Renyong named the king of Lingwu County, unwilling to surrender Qian Duoduo, how can Tubo withdraw the army, his troops are only 2,000 people, and the garrison of the border town does not follow his orders, so he can't hold Lingzhou City at all. had to abandon Lingzhou and rush back to the Hurs, and was defeated in the Butterfly Valley by the Fengzhou general Yang, the whole army was annihilated, and Hu Shen himself died in the chaos.

Yang Bao is Yang Qi's cousin, and is currently the military envoy of Fengzhou Tiande, who was ordered by Yang Qi to respond to Qian Duoduo from the northeast to recover Lingzhou.

So far, Qian Duoduo and Li Xianyi occupied the first line of Fengxiang, Jingyuan, and Lingwu, Shi Xiong took over the two towns of Suining and Dunfang, the manor occupied Huazhou, Shi Xianzhong occupied Tongzhou, Zhu Kerongtun soldiers to the west and south of Chang'an, and the Great Qin Emperor Pei Renyong became a caged bird.
