In fact, Yang Jian's determination to recall Yang Guang from Bingzhou has long been made, and the reason why he has not officially issued an edict to recall Yang Guang to this day is mainly because he has not chosen a successor to Yang Guang.

After Datou Khan descended to Sui, according to Yang Jian's original intention, he wanted to transfer Yang Jun, the third son of Qin King in the northwest of the town, to Bingzhou to replace Yang Guang and serve as the governor of Hebei Province, but Yang Jun did not know who instigated him, and the first one clearly proposed to himself that he would serve as the marshal of Chen and lead the army to destroy Nanchen.

After all, it is between father and son, since the son is not here, it is inconvenient for him to be a father, and considering that although the head of the Western Turks has been a vassal to the Great Sui, but his command has gathered the remnants of the Apo tribe and defeated generals, and the military strength far exceeds that of the Eastern Turks, Yang Jun, as the vassal king of the northwest of the town, is not suitable to leave the northwest for a while, and the two are combined in one place, forcing Yang Jian to temporarily dispel the idea of transferring Yang Jun to Bingzhou to replace Yang Guang.

In addition, Yang Jian also moved to transfer Yang Xiu, the king of Shu who was now in Yizhou in the southwest, to the north to replace Yang Guang's thoughts, but he immediately took the initiative to deny Yang Xiu's candidate: first, Yang Xiu guarded the southwest Bashu territory and the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, once the army attacked Chen, it will inevitably involve the southwest, Yang Xiu has been out of Yizhou for many years, and is quite familiar with the local customs and people, leaving him to garrison the southwest will be conducive to cooperating with the imperial army to attack Chen; Second, after Yang Xiu's abuse of the Qiang people last time (later, with the assistance of Yuan Yan and others, the Qiang rebellion was put down), Yang Jian had a crisis of confidence in Yang Xiu in his heart, and he was not very relieved to transfer him to Hebei to deal with the Turks (the threat of the Turks to the Chinese Dynasty is comparable to the Qiang tribes living in the southwest corner of the country).

Next, only the youngest son, Yang Liangke, the king of Han, was sent to Bingzhou to exchange for Yang Guang.

Although Yang Liang is only thirteen years old, he is exactly the same age as Yang Guang who left his parents and went out of the town and the state in the first year of the emperor's reign, but whether he is flexible in mind or calm, he is not inferior to Yang Guang, and even better than Yang Guang in some aspects.

However, because Yang Guang, Yang Jun, Yang Xiu and other brothers left their parents as early as six years ago and went to all parties to go out of the town, in recent years, except for the prince Yang Yong, who has already grown up and married a wife and had children, and Yang Jian and Dugu Jialuo live together (as early as Yang Guang's three brothers left Chang'an one after another, after leaving the town, Yang Liang was admitted to the palace to live with his parents) is the only one of the youngest sons.

In the past five or six years, regardless of Yang Jian, Dugu Jialuo's favor for Yang Liang has even surpassed Yang Guang.

So, when Yang Jian tactfully discussed with his wife and planned to send his youngest son to Bingzhou to exchange for Yang Guang, he encountered the same situation before Yang Guang left the town and merged with the state in the first year of the emperor's reign: Dugu Jialuo was reluctant to let his youngest son leave his side and went to Bingzhou, thousands of miles away, to deal with the Turks.

In this way, it was not until the turn of the year that he entered the sixth year of the emperor's reign that Dugu Jialuo showed his mouth and reluctantly agreed to let his youngest son go to Bingzhou in exchange for Yang Guang.

In order to reassure his wife, Yang Jian specially equipped Yang Liang with a luxurious lineup of subordinates that could be called unparalleled in the world: Shi Wansui, who was transferred back from the northwest to kill Apo Khan, served as the commander-in-chief of the military annexation state of the Han Palace; Yang Shangxi, the current secretary of the Ministry of War, was appointed as the left servant of the Hebei Provincial Xingtai; Cui Zhongfang, who was appointed as the Shaoqing of Sinong, was the right servant of Hebei Province and the head of the Han Dynasty...... It is particularly worth mentioning that Yang Jian also endured the pain of cutting his love, and the rising star in the Guards army, Li Jing, the new head of the inner hall, was assigned to Yang Liang as his guard.

Not only that, Yang Jian also gave Yang Liang two coinage furnaces to his youngest son for the first time before leaving Beijing and leaving the town, allowing him to arbitrarily cast the "Five Plants of the Emperor" to make up for the lack of public and private use.

In this way, in May of the sixth year of the emperor's reign, Yang Liang, the king of Han, led his luxurious subordinate team to leave Chang'an and went north to take over.

At the same time, Yang Guang, who was in Bingzhou, took a two-pronged approach, on the one hand, he borrowed an eagle message from Gao Liansheng, and on the other hand, he sent Pei Qiantong to return to Chang'an on a fast horse to bring a letter to his teacher Su Wei, asking him to send Zhang Xutuo, who was framed, to Bingzhou, and since he was concerned, he has been worried about Zhang Xutuo's life and death, so that he has reached the point where he doesn't know how to eat and can't sleep at night.

Unexpectedly, I didn't expect Su Wei's reply, but I got a small news from the Guannai: My father was about to send Yang Liang, the king of Han, to Bingzhou to replace him.

When Yang Guang first heard the news, he still didn't believe that his father would agree to his request so quickly and summon him to return to Chang'an, but then all kinds of news came one after another: it is said that the one who was appointed by the emperor as the commander-in-chief of the Han Wangfu military was Shi Wansui, the first fierce general in the world who beheaded Apo Khan; There is a legend that the former commander of the Hussars of the Sect, and Yang Su, the Duke of Qinghe, is about to be canonized as the left servant of the new Hebei Dao Xingtai; There is also a legend that the emperor made an exception and rewarded the king of Han with two coinage furnaces, allowing the king of Han to open the furnace to mint money at will without restrictions...... The more it is transmitted, the more realistic it becomes, and Yang Guang can't help but believe it.

Among the many news, the only thing that made Yang Guang feel sorry was that he was bent on recruiting Li Jing, the "god of war" under his command, who was assigned by his father to Yang Liang and be his guard.

Rumors are rumors, Yang Guang still did not dare to have the slightest negligence after receiving the Ming edict from the imperial court for a day: after Liu Fang infiltrated the Turkic territory and killed Gao Baoning, he ordered the border state capitals to strengthen their vigilance to prevent the Turks from making trouble and provoking trouble at any time, and instructed Li Che to quickly transfer the 20,000 troops in the pass to Baidaozhou, so as to constitute an effective shock to Zihe Town, where the Turkic Great Khan's tooth tent is located, and force the Tutu not to dare to cause trouble because the Sui army went deep into his territory to kill Gao Baoning.

It wasn't until more than a month later, when it was finally confirmed that the photographer had to swallow the bitter fruit he had given him, and there was no sign of raising troops against the Sui, that Yang Guang's nervous mood relaxed.

At this time, the exact news came from Guannei that Yang Liang, the new governor of Hebei Province and the governor of Bingzhou, had led a group of subordinates to leave Chang'an and come to Bingzhou to take up his post.

Therefore, there was no edict issued by the imperial court before, and he was appointed to a new position, and Yang Guang should be summoned back to Beijing by his fifth brother Yang Liang in person, and immediately gathered all his subordinates, led by him personally, and rushed to the junction of Bingzhou and Fenzhou to meet the king of Han and his party.

When Yang Guang led Wang Shao, Li Che, Zhang Heng, and Li Xiong, the secretary of the Xingtai Military Department, who rushed back from Youzhou, and other current Xingtai subordinates arrived at the Fenhe Station on the bank of Fenshui, they got the news from the front that King Han and his entourage had just left Fenzhou City and could not come to Fenheyi until the afternoon.

Yang Guang ordered all the subordinates to go back to their rooms to rest for the time being, and they sat down in the main hall of the post station, and they also wanted to go back to the room to rest, when they suddenly heard someone outside the hall report: "Lord Wang, Li Hun and Pei Qiantong, two generals, have arrived outside the gate of the post station, saying that there is something important to report to the prince in person." ”
