467 Mayi Rebellion
When he heard the news that Su You had broken through the Goryeo Royal City, Yang Guang's first reaction was that it was a joke, even if Yu Shiji said it clearly, he still couldn't believe it was true.
How many people did you use in your first expedition to Goryeo? It's 1,130,000!
Yang Guang also knew that Goryeo did not have much strength after withstanding his three expeditions, so he always fantasized about going to conquer him for the fourth time; Despite this, he also didn't believe that Su You had entered the Goryeo Royal City with only 10,000 people.
Yu Shiji had to explain, "Before Su You arrived at Pyeongseong, the Goryeo Kingdom attacked Baekje and then surrounded the Golden Fortress and the Comfort Fortress of Silla in two ways, and it was at that time that Su You began to intervene in the war. After defeating the Goryeo army in Jinseong and Comfort Fortress respectively, Su You seized the Humble Luxury City again, and then killed Pingseong by water."
According to Yu Shiji, before Su You entered the Goryeo Royal City, he had already eliminated the main force of the Goryeo army in the three places of Jincheng, Comfort City and Humble Luxury City.
This statement is obviously untenable, after all, the army of Goryeo was not only 30,000 or 20,000, in fact, there were more than 20,000 defenders in Pingcheng at that time, and most of the more than 10,000 defenders in Liaodong City also returned to Pingcheng.
The reason why Goryeo City was forced was because of Su You's firearms, which could not be reflected in Yu Shiji's news for the time being; After all, the source of this information came from Samsan, not Silla or Goryeo.
"Where is Su You now?" Yang Guang didn't deliberately guess why Su You suddenly attacked Goryeo, and only asked the question he was most concerned about.
"After Su You captured the Goryeo Royal City, he was probably worried that the Goryeo army in Liaodong City would return to defense, so he chose to retreat to Sanshan, and is currently maintaining an offensive posture against Goryeo with the help of the Humble Luxury City" Yu Shiji immediately said all his guesses and the information he obtained.
Of course, Yu Shiji will not deliberately touch Yang Guang's moldy head, he still has a certain skill in speaking, that is, he has room for everything, and tries to use words such as "probably", "maybe" and "maybe".
After Yang Guang listened to Yu Shiji, his mood was really much more relaxed than when he first heard that Su You had attacked the Goryeo Royal City.
Yang Guang should be happy that Su You was able to break Pingcheng, as long as Su You played the banner of the Great Sui, the problem was that he had failed too many times before.
After listening to Yu Shiji's words, Yang Guang thought that Su You only had the ability to break the city, probably by forcibly breaking a gate in Pingcheng, but he could not further expand the results of the battle
Su You's predicament is obviously because there is no state apparatus behind him, but in any case, Su You's ability to break the city is also to earn back face for himself, isn't it?
Although it was probably only a certain gate of the Goryeo Royal City, Yang Guang felt that he was happy, and Su You had made a great contribution.
Su You soon changed from a capable minister to a brave general in Yang Guang's mind, and Yang Guang felt that the confrontation between Su You and the Goryeo people in the humble city obviously had no strategic effect; After all, Goryeo did not have the ability to attack the Great Sui through the Humble City, and the first priority of the Great Sui now was no longer to break the royal city of Goryeo, but to quell the civil strife.
"Come on, go and bring Pei Yun, Pei Ju and Yu Wenhua and come" Because after hearing the good news that Su You had conquered the Goryeo Royal City, Yang Guang's voice became hearty.
Yu Shiji obviously also knew that Yang Guang had asked Pei Yun to come here to decide where Su You went, in fact, in addition to bringing good news about Su You, he also had bad news to report.
The worst news is that Luo Yi is self-reliant, and Su You has taken away nearly 200,000 refugees from Jimo, Donglai, Bohai and other coastal counties in nearly a month.
After a while, Pei Yun and the others arrived in the palace, and all of them, except for Yu Wenhua, were optimistic about Su You's destruction of the Goryeo royal city, and finally agreed to let Su You also join the siege of Wagang.
The result of this discussion did not surprise the people present, and what made them feel unbelievable was that Yang Guang actually proposed to entitle Su You as the governor of Nanzhong and General Pinggao, and asked Pei Shiju to personally go to Sanshan to send a message to Su You and Su You
Yang Guang's proposal did not have any obstacles, and Pei Yun and the others also knew that the reason why Yang Guang sent Pei Shiju to Sanshan was because he was worried that Su You would not accept his orders.
In fact, everyone here thought that this was the case, after all, even Luo Yi of Zhuojun was now self-reliant, not to mention Su You, who had the ability to break through Pingcheng?
Su You may not have raised the anti-flag yet, but everything he did proved that he had this intention.
After receiving the letter from the relevant departments that was going to be handed over to Su You, Pei Shiju, who was nearly seventy years old, began his errand journey.
Now that the army is in chaos, it is obviously impossible for Pei Shiju to go to sea directly by boat.
After all, most of the Yangtze River is now controlled by Du Fuwei, and if his ships leave Jiangdu, the next step may fall into the hands of thieves
With Yu Shiji's guidance, Pei Shiju finally thought of a way, that is, to pretend to be a refugee and use the boat from Sanshan to pick up people to reach Sanshan.
When Pei Shiju left Jiangdu and set off for the Shandong Peninsula, Su You also sent an envoy to Zhuojun; Of course, Su You wanted to form a strategic alliance with Luo Yi for the time being, and planned to launch an attack on Gao Kaidao.
The main reason why they were in a hurry to attack Gao Kaidao was, of course, because the prospecting team had found an open-pit coal mine; - If you want to mine with peace of mind, you obviously have to clear the high open road that may bring harm to you.
The reason for choosing Luo Yi as an ally is because Su You has cooperated with Luo Yi before, and he has intersected with Wei Ting, Wang Qi, Wen Yan, Bozhuo, and Wuhu and others around Luo Yi; The second is that Luo Yi's current situation is not optimistic, and several of the people around him have become puppets of the Turks
Wei Dao'er, Dou Jiande, Gao Kaidao and others all accepted the help of the Turks to varying degrees; Of course, Luo Yi was not perfect, and he also accepted the protection of the Turks after falling out with Li Yuan, which was like the king running into a foreign embassy
All of the above happened in the original history, Su You didn't know if these histories would be repeated after he joined, but he hoped that his compatriots would have fewer traitors.
However, just when Su You became a hero in the world because of the capture of the Goryeo Royal City, Su You was also become a traitor, and the reason was that Su You married Princess Turandot, the Turkic Shibi Khan!
Su You's wife is from Yanbei, and Turandot is just Su You's concubine, but this does not hinder the spread of rumors; This rumor was predicted by Su Yunfan a few years ago, but when Su You heard about it, he was still a little depressed.
If it weren't for this rumor, Su You would have gathered as soon as he ascended to the heights; But if he wants to call for a rebellion now, he will inevitably be criticized.
Su You has never guessed whether this rumor came from Yang Guang or Li Mi?
Su You was turned into a traitor, but Liu Wuzhou was willing to fall.
While Li Yuan, Wang Xuan and others were frequently harassing the Turkic army stationed in the north of Dingxiang County, Liu Wuzhou reached an intention to cooperate with the Turks, and he finally raised the butcher's knife against Wang Rengong, the commander of Mayi County.
Wang Rengong spent Chinese New Year's Eve in anxiety and uneasiness, which was the day of the people, that is, the seventh day of the first lunar month.
Xue Daoheng once wrote a poem "People Thinking of Returning Every Day", "It's only been seven days since spring, and I have been away from home for two years." After the people return to the geese, they think in front of the flowers. ”
These sentences are in line with Wang Rengong's current state of mind, he has just woken up from his sleep at this time, and he can't tell whether he is in a dream or reality for a while.
The number of harassments by the Turkic soldiers had suddenly decreased, and Wang Rengong, though unaware of the calm before the storm, became uneasy.
Wang Rengong was a little old, he followed Yang Guangsan to conquer Goryeo, and also led the Li Shimin brothers to rush to the front line of the siege of Yanmen; It can be seen that after the brutality of the Turks, he just wants to live in peace and enjoy his life.
Looking at the young woman beside him, Wang Rengong felt that many years had been in vain, and he was a little stupid to go east and west to make a living, and it was too late to enjoy life.
Wang Rengong watched the sunlight shine in through the screen window, filling the room with spring light; He only hoped that the Turkic soldiers would not come today, so that no one would come to disturb him
While he was thinking about it, Wang Rengong suddenly heard a commotion outside, and a soldier hurriedly said: "Liu Juncheng, Wang Yuanjun is still resting, you can't come in." ”
"I have something urgent to tell Ming Gong, get out of the way." Of course, this is Liu Wuzhou's angry shout.
Wang Rengong frowned, feeling that Liu Wuzhou's tone was a little unkind, and when he just sat up to put on his clothes, he heard the door "clang" and was kicked open.
Liu Wuzhou walked in first, and behind him were more than a dozen subordinates such as Song Jingang, Wei Chi Gong, etc.; The woman on Wang Rengong's bed screamed, clutching the embroidered quilt tightly, her face full of panic.
"Liu Wuzhou, what are you going to do?" Wang Rengong immediately shouted angrily at Liu Wuzhou's behavior, the clothes on his body were not yet belted, but sitting on the edge of the bed also had a majesty.
Liu Wuzhou's face was expressionless, and he said in a deep voice, "Wu Zhou, please open the warehouse to release grain"
Wang Rengong immediately interrupted Liu Wuzhou's words with an angry shout, "Do you know what you're talking about? Do you want to rebel! ”
Liu Wuzhou sighed lightly, "Now the people are hungry, and corpses are all over the place. Ming Gong still refuses to open a warehouse to release grain, causing countless people to starve to death in Mayi County, is this what the parents should do?"
"Do you know who you're talking to? By what you say today, it is the sin of killing the head. Wang Rengong didn't notice that his situation was weaker than others, and immediately ridiculed him.
"The people are not afraid of death, why do they threaten each other with death? I, Liu Wuzhou, ask for the people's lives today. What a pity to die?"
Liu Wuzhou was stern, and his subordinates behind him immediately applauded, but the soldiers gathered outside Wang Rengong's house were silent.
Wang Rengong suddenly felt a chill rushing down his spine.
Liu Wu waved his hand on Monday, and Song Jingang behind him grabbed Wang Rengong's arm and said, "Wang Taishou, please!"
"Song Jingang, what are you going to do!" Wang Rengong waved his hand angrily, wanting to stop Song Jingang from approaching him, and shouted loudly, "Liu Wuzhou is in turmoil, come and arrest him quickly!" ”
Except for the cold staring of more than a dozen people in front of him, no one responded to Wang Rengong's call.
