Chapter 8 Yang Guang's abacus
Lin Shihong learned from the soldiers who fled back that his 20,000 troops were wiped out by the remnants of the 3,000 remnants of the Xiaoguo Army, and the angry Lin Shihong jumped the torpedo. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Nima, Li Ba, this waste turned out to be such a fool, he was blind and asked him to lead his troops to exterminate the remnants of the Xiaoguo Army.
At the end of the year, seeing that the New Year is approaching, the army sent troops and the Xiaoguo army may not have enough morale. Besides, what is the 3,000 Xiaoguo Army? After the New Year, the army will advance, and I am afraid that there will not be even a scum left.
The main reason is that now Lin Shihong has begun to prepare to be the emperor in his heart, and he has temporarily put aside the idea of exterminating Xin Lei.
On the 10th day of the first month of December, Lin Shihong chose Qianzhou as the capital and proclaimed himself the king of Nanyue. The next step is to proclaim himself emperor, the country name Chu, the founding year name Taiping, and appoint Wang Rong of the same party as Sikong.
Lin Shihong's preparations for the establishment of the Great Chu State are still being prepared, but because the outlier of Xin Lei has disrupted Lin Shihong's plan, Lin Shihong's army cannot be moved to Qianzhou for the time being, and he will continue to be stationed in Yuzhang County.
In the thirteenth year of the Great Cause, just after the New Year, Yang Guang, the emperor of the Great Sui Dynasty, received the good news delivered by Xin Lei. At first glance, Yang Guang could hardly believe that this was true.
You must know that from the mouth of the senior officer of the Xiaoguo Army who fled back to Jiangdu, Yang Guang knew that Lin Shihong was powerful. Liu Ziyi's 20,000 troops were almost served by Lin Shihong, and Xin Lei defeated Lin Shihong's 20,000 troops with 3,000 remnants, which is really a bit incredible and exaggerated.
But why did Xin Lei dare to lie? It's a head-off thing. Therefore, Yang Guang, the emperor of the Great Sui, believed that the good news was real.
Yang Guang, who was depressed, was extremely excited when he received such good news on the occasion of the New Year. Let people investigate Xin Leiqi, it turned out to be the son of Xin Kuo, the son of Sinong Shaoqing of the Great Sui.
Yang Guang was both happy and regretful, why didn't he find out that this guy could fight like this before! sent out a scribe to serve Liu Ziyi, and the 20,000 army was defeated in the first battle. I knew that I would let Xin Lei lead the troops to command!
It's useless to regret it, but now I know. Yang Guang was happy and waved his hand to promote Xin Lei, and appointed Xin Lei as the general of Pingnan from Liupin, leading the affairs of thieves in the south of the Great River.
As for reinforcing Xin Lei, Yang Guang was in trouble. The Great Sui Dynasty rebelled everywhere, in July of the twelfth year of the Great Cause, when the Great Sui Emperor Yang Guang came to Jiangdu, Li Zitong was based in Hailing, Zuo Caixiang was in Huaibei, and Du Fuweitun Liuhe threatened Jiangdu from three sides.
Emperor Yang sent Chen Ling to lead 8,000 elite soldiers of the Su Guard to crusade, and there were victories and defeats against each other, but the rebellion was not eliminated in the end.
In the first month, Yang Guang sent Chen Ling to conquer Du Fuwei, the most powerful rebel army in the Jianghuai area. Fought with the rebels in Gaoyou and Liyang. Du Fuwei claimed to be the chief administrator, with Fu Gongqi as the long history, controlled the counties of Huainan, and many small anti-Sui forces in the Jianghuai came to join, forming a huge rebel force in the Jianghuai and Huai.
The soldiers in Yang Guang's hands did not dare to send them out again, these Xiaoguo troops in his hands were all life-saving, and one less was sent out, and the situation in the Jianghuai area was sinister. I can't complain about the Great Sui Emperor Yang Guang's calculations about his little Jiujiu, the Great Sui Dynasty is not eroded, and the fear in Yang Guang's heart can be imagined.
Seven years after the Great Cause, the rebels of the Great Sui Dynasty emerged one after another like infectious diseases.
In the seventh year of the great cause of the Sui Dynasty, when Yang Guang recruited a large number of soldiers to prepare to attack Goguryeo, Wang Bo, a native of Zouping, first led the people to rise up in Changbai Mountain, and most of the conscripts at that time went to join him. At the same time, those who started trouble in Shandong and Hebei included Sun Anzu, Zhang Jincheng, Gao Shida, and Dou Jiande. Later, the uprising continued to expand in scope, and the rebel forces in various departments grew to a few tens of thousands to more than 100,000 people.
In June of that year, Yang Xuangan, the secretary of the Sui State Rite Department, raised troops in Liyang to rebel against the Sui Dynasty and besieged the capital Luoyang; Although it was quickly defeated, it shook the rule of Yang Guang of the Great Sui Dynasty and further promoted the development of the rebellion.
In the next two or three years, the rebel army swept across the country, with more than 100 peasant armies numbering in the millions. In the battle with the Sui army, it gradually moved from dispersion to unity, forming three powerful rebel armies: the Wagang Army in Henan, the Dou Jiande Army in Hebei, and the Du Fuwei Army in Jianghuai.
In October of the twelfth year of the Great Cause, Li Mi of the Wagang Army led his army to capture Xingyang, and defeated the Sui army many times near Xingyang, and the prestige was great, and most of the counties in Henan were controlled. In February of the thirteenth year, the Wagang army advanced to Luoyang.
At this time, Dou Jiande also won successive victories in Hebei, occupying many counties in Hebei.
Later, the rebels who rose up all over the country surged, as well as the nobles and bureaucrats of the Sui Dynasty, as well as some powerful landlords, who mostly supported the army and divided one side, the big one was called the emperor and the prince, and the small one was called the chief and the record. Mergers and wars are continuous.
Fortunately, Xin Lei temporarily withstood Lin Shihong's development momentum in Jiangnan, and if the Jiangnan rebels grew stronger, Yang Guangke, the emperor of the Great Sui Dynasty, would be attacked on all sides.
Yang Guang understood Xin Lei's role very well, and had no choice but to send more than 1,000 infantry, 500 crossbowmen, and 500 cavalry to Xin Lei's small remnant army. Although there are not many soldiers and horses, how much should be interesting, right? In this way, Yang Guang still had some pain.
There is no shortage of ordnance, war horses, grain and grass, and the rich flow of oil in the Great Sui Dynasty is very generous with a stroke of the pen.
Yang Guang sent this bit of men and horses to let Xin Lei pacify Jiangnan, and even Yu Shiji beside him felt that he couldn't see it: "Your Majesty, plus these two thousand people, Xin Lei has a total of only five thousand people, how can he be the opponent of Lin Shihong with more than 100,000 horses?" Too little. ”
Yang Guang began to make trouble again, and many troops were reluctant to send them, after all, the land of Jianghuai was the top priority. If he didn't send more troops to Xin Lei's Xiaoguo army, Xin Lei's few men and horses would not be enough for the rebel Lin Shihong. What a headache!
After thinking and meditating, hey, Yang Guang suddenly got his senses and thought of the trick of writing a blank check to Xin Lei.
Yang Guang drafted an edict ordering Xin Lei to recruit soldiers and horses on the spot south of the Yangtze River, and to act cheaply wherever he went, so that the localities could support all the needs of the war.
Yang Guang thought that this method was very good, and he did not need to send troops abroad, but also solved the problem of Xin Lei's lack of strength. This trick is good, even Yang Guang himself has a very good plan, and he sighed.
However, what Yang Guang didn't know was that this would cheapen Xin Lei's guy.
Yang Guang doesn't know the future development trend, Xin Lei knows! Now Yang Guang is too busy to take care of himself, and the area south of the river will be tossed by Xin Lei in the future.
The most important thing is that Xin Lei knew that the Great Sui Emperor Yang Guang only had one year to live, that is to say, after a year, there was no one above Xin Lei to govern, he was the emperor of the soil south of the Yangtze River.
Yang Guang also knew that the military situation was urgent, and just after the New Year, he urged the army to help Xin Lei and set off.
1,000 infantry and 500 cavalry escorted all kinds of supplies to support Xinlei's Xiaoguo army.
