Seven years after the Great Cause, the rebels of the Great Sui Dynasty emerged one after another like infectious diseases, and the world was full of smoke. That year, when Emperor Yang Guang of the Great Sui Dynasty recruited a large number of soldiers to attack Goguryeo, Wang Bo, a native of Zouping, first led a rebellion in Changbai Mountain, and most of the conscripts at that time went to join him. At the same time, Sun Anzu, Zhang Jincheng, Gao Shida, Dou Jiande and others who started incidents in Shandong and Hebei also led the crowd to rise up. Later, the uprising continued to expand in scope, and the rebel forces in various departments grew to as few as tens of thousands, and as many as more than 100,000.

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, and there were more than 100 peasant armies, numbering no less than a million people. In the battle against 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. 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, there were rebels all over the country, and there were some nobles and bureaucrats who were originally from the Sui Dynasty, as well as some powerful landlords. Mergers and wars are continuous.

Not only was the Central Plains in turmoil, but also landlords and bureaucrats such as Liang Shidu in Shuofang (now Baichengzi, Inner Mongolia), Liu Wuzhou in Mayi (now Shuozhou City, Shanxi), and Xue Ju in Jincheng (now Lanzhou, Gansu) also raised troops and seized the localities. In May of the thirteenth year of the Great Cause, Li Yuan, who was left behind in Taiyuan, also raised troops from Taiyuan, and in July, he took advantage of the opportunity of the great battle between the Sui army and the Wagang army to enter Guanzhong.

Now, even Jiangnan, which Yang Guang thought was relatively calm, has begun to be in chaos. This is the twelfth year of the great cause, Panyang thief Shuai Cao Shi took the lead in raising troops against Sui, Lin Shihong responded positively, gathered tens of thousands of traitors to capture Yuzhang County.

When the news reached Jiangdu, the Great Sui Emperor was furious and ordered Liu Ziyi, the secretary of the imperial history, to lead the Xiaoguo army to crusade against the master beggar.

Due to Chen Ling's recommendation, this time Lu Chang finally had the opportunity to stay away from Jiangdu City and lead the Jiangnan Army to follow the Xiaoguo Army into battle.

Lu Chang sighed in his heart, he could finally leave Jiangdu City, and he didn't have to worry about the black hands of the Yuwen family in the future.

The guy who didn't have the courage was afraid of Yu Wenhua and that waste material!

It's no wonder that Lu Chang is timid, he doesn't have the ability to cross his predecessors, and he can mix well in front of the sinister and cunning traitors. Lu Chang played with them, and he didn't know which day he would play with his life. Such a terrible game, Lu Chang resolutely does not play drops!

Lu Chang's experience in his previous life determined that he had this ability, if he hadn't crossed over to the big fool bird and had this amazing ability, he wouldn't have risked his life to play the game of hegemony. He didn't want to stay in Jiangdu City for even a day, and it was safe to leave early and leave early.

Lu Chang's advantage is only to know a little bit of the pitiful historical trend, that's all.

Now that he can finally leave, Lu Chang, who is in a relaxed mood, is in good spirits, and the entire Lu Mansion is busy and ready to go.

This time, Lu Chang is ready to do a big job.

It's a pity that it backfired, just when Lu Chang was full of ambition, Yu Wenhua happened to meet Liu Ziyi, the secretary of the imperial history.

"Liu Shi Yushi is about to go on the expedition, hehe, if you make some contributions, you can just around the corner."

"Thank you, my lord, for your good words, Xia Guan will live up to the emperor's expectations, and the Xiaoguo Army will do its best to eliminate the Jiangnan rebels."

"Liu Shiyu is only eight buckets high, where are some grass cowards opponents. By the way, how did you hear that the Jiangnan Army also wants the Sui Army to participate in the war? ”

"At first, I didn't consider the Jiangnan Army, but later it was the recommendation of Lord Chen Ling that they were added to the expedition. What do you mean? ”

"It's a bit of nonsense! The Jiangnan Army has never fought, but don't let them drag the Xiaoguo Army back. Besides, that Lu Chang is young and promoted too quickly, right? ”

"Don't worry, my lord, the lower officials understand."

"Okay, the old man wishes Liu Yushi success."

Seeing Yu Wenhua and leaving, Liu Ziyi could think about it, and listened to Yu Wenhua's meaning, which he didn't want Lu Chang to establish meritorious service.

Indeed, Yu Wenhua didn't want Lu Chang to have a chance to establish meritorious service, and even, if Lu Chang was a little bad, Yu Wenhua would immediately take action to get Lu Chang out.

Yu Wenhua is a celebrity in front of Emperor Yang Guang, Liu Ziyi can't afford to offend, and he doesn't want to offend. Then, I can only be sorry for Lu Chang.

Liu Ziyi is a fifth-grade official, and Lu Chang is just an eight-rank sesame official who has just been promoted, and Lu Chang is not taken seriously by Liu Ziyi at all.

Soon, Lu Chang received the latest order from Liu Ziyi, the commander of the expedition: "Order your department to recruit young people to transport grain, grass, and equipment, and within the specified time, the Jiangnan Army must escort the baggage to the destination on schedule, and those who violate the order will be beheaded." ”

After receiving the latest order, Lu Chang, Zhang Yu and others saw that their task had changed, and they were no longer directly involved in the army, but the task of guarding the baggage.

Zhang Yu was very disappointed, it was impossible for the guards to participate in the war, so it would be impossible to establish military merits.

"This change is too fast, it is said that it is a war army, but in a blink of an eye, it has become a baggage, is there someone saying bad things inside?"

Zhang Yu's suspicion was reasonable, and Lu Chang thought about it, and there were only a few people in Jiangdu City who didn't like him, including the Yuwen family.

However, Lu Chang didn't care, as long as he left Jiangdu City.

"Zile, stop complaining, the guards are also participating in the war. You will arrange this over-recruitment of young people, pay attention, only recruit strong people. Moreover, it is allowed to bring your own weapons. ”

"Okay, I'll recruit young people. However, the time they gave was very tight, and even the recruitment plus the time on the road, I am afraid that a month of overland travel may not be enough. ”

"Don't worry, the living will suffocate to death, just find a way to solve it."

Although it is convenient to take the Yangtze River waterway, there are not many naval troops on the Yangtze River, and the ships that can be sent can only transport part of the army, and most of the troops of the Xiaoguo army are also by land.

There are only ten ships, Liu Ziyi himself is not enough, will he provide Lu Chang with this convenience?

What's more, from Yu Wenhua's words, it is probably that he doesn't want to see Lu Chang, and he can't help Yu Wenhua and hope to find a reason to punish Lu Chang.

Compared with Yu Wenhua, little people like Lu Chang have always been victims.

Zhang Yu is a smart person, and he can hear from Lu Chang's words that the young men recruited are estimated to be more than just transporting baggage. It is necessary to recruit strong people and allow them to bring their own weapons, presumably to be prepared to use these people at critical times.

At this time, the disaster in the Jianghuai region was severe, and there were many people who could not eat, and the recruitment work was not difficult, and three or five days was enough time for more than 10,000 young people.

Everyone was busy, Xin Wen was in charge of preparing the materials, Xiong Kuohai followed Zhang Yu, and Lu Chang also recruited Shen Yuzhen, the leader of the Red Pink Gang. That's why Lu Chang is not worried, he also has cards to play in his hand.

"Childe, why are you in such a hurry to find a slave?"

"It's time to go on the expedition, Ben will be in charge of the baggage, and Shangguan also asks to arrive at the designated place at a limited time, can you not be in a hurry?"

"That's the case, do you have to take the waterway, otherwise the son won't think of the slave family."

Shen Yuzhen is coquettish, at this time, he can't take care of flirting with the little girl~ Love, Lu Changyan said: "Externally, it is said that it is to hire your ship to transport the goods to the other side of the Yangtze River, but in fact, it is to take some people to the destination first." Zhang Yu will set off with some troops with your fleet, and as a preemptive army, set up camp at the destination in advance. ”

"Got it, Childe, the slave family will go and arrange it immediately."
