Zhang Xuan did not disappoint everyone in the end, he chose the grandson of Yang Lun, King of Liteng, as the emperor, at the same time, this only two-year-old child has been secretly picked up by the Qingzhou Army from Lu County Yidu, three days later, Empress Xiao officially issued an order, agreeing to the request of the hundred officials, Yang Yi, the grandson of King Liteng, was the emperor of the Great Sui, and the name of the year was changed to Xingning.

Empress Xiao immediately named Zhang Xuan, the king of Qi, as the regent of the prison state, in charge of the military and political affairs, Su Wei as the internal history order, Pei Ju as the Nayan, and Wei Yunqi as the secretary of the ministry, Zheng Shanguo as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Li Gang as the secretary of the household department, Li Jing as the secretary of the military department, Lu Zuo as the secretary of the criminal department, Cui Huan as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Yu Shinan as the imperial history doctor, and all officials were rewarded one by one.

Zhang Xuan's first order after serving as the regent of Jianguo was to change the name of Anyang County to Zhongdu, appoint Pei Hong as the Zhongdu Order, appoint He Chou, who will be a master craftsman, as the director of palace construction, and Li Chun, a waiter of the Ministry of Works, as the director of city construction.

Prior to this, Yu Wenhua killed the puppet emperor Yang Hao in Xuzhou, established himself as the emperor, and the founding name was 'Xu', although this was a big deal, but soon, the news that really shocked the world quickly covered up the news of Yu Wenhua and the emperor.

The Empress Dowager of the Sui Dynasty and the hundred officials established Yang Yi, the grandson of King Teng, as the Son of Heaven in Beihai County, and rebuilt the imperial court, and Zhang Xuan, the king of Qi, was the regent of the prison state.

The news spread all over the world.

．．．．．．．．

In Jixian County, Youzhou, Luo Yi paced back and forth in the room with his hands, his heart was really restless, he had just received the news that Zhang Xuan's newly built imperial court would move the capital to Wei County in three months.

Luo Yi knew very well in his heart that the reason why Zhang Xuan delayed moving the capital for three months was not as simple as building a city palace, but to use this time to exterminate himself, and it was impossible for Zhang Xuan to let Xindu face the threat of Youzhou.

Seeing that great danger was coming, Luo Yi was not only counting on Chang'an. There seems to be no other way.

In fact, Luo Yi has always hoped that Li Jiancheng can open up the passage from Hanoi County to Zhuo County, so he did not hesitate to send troops to Boling County, just to form a north-south echo with the Tang Army, but Li Jiancheng was forced to retreat to Merge State because the logistics could not keep up, which made Luo Yi extremely disappointed and had to withdraw from Boling County.

Although the attack of the Don army from the south failed. But Li Jiancheng's strategy to the north gave Luo Yi another glimmer of hope, and Luo Yi also felt that it was much more reliable for the Tang army to attack from the north than from the south, at least for his Youzhou army.

At this time, there was a letter next to Luo Yi, which was an urgent letter sent by Li Jiancheng yesterday, asking Luo Yi to capture Lushui Cang before the Qingzhou Army, and never let the Qingzhou Army get this warehouse.

In particular, the large amount of grain in the warehouse is of vital strategic significance for the logistics supply of the Tang army after entering Hebei, so Li Jiancheng's attitude in this letter is very resolute, asking Luo Yi to take Lushui Cang at all costs.

In fact, even if Li Jiancheng didn't write this letter, Luo Yi would still find a way to take down Lushuicang. When the grain stock left to him in the Goguryeo campaign was exhausted, he had to consider collecting taxes to raise military rations, but a Zhuo county could not afford to raise 25,000 Youzhou troops, especially this year's general summer grain harvest in Hebei, Luo Yi himself began to have a shortage of military rations, and the soldiers' military ration supply was forced to be cut twice, which has caused the anger of the soldiers, so that Luo Yi did not dare to implement the third cut.

Luo Yi paced back and forth in the lobby with his hands in his hands. It was no longer a question of whether to seize Lushuicang, he was thinking about how to capture Lushuicang. How can we defeat Li Jing and seize the warehouse at the lowest cost.

In fact, there is no way, Luo Yi has already thought of a way to deal with Li Jing, but he has not implemented it, so can he try it this time?

It is no accident that Luo Yi has always coveted the Lushui Warehouse, one of the four warehouses in the world, which stored half of the grain and supplies prepared by the Great Sui Dynasty for the attack on Goguryeo.

There are more than 100,000 stone of grain alone, more than 100,000 pairs of armor and weapons, war drums, military flags, arrows, oil, and so on. In addition, there are hundreds of thousands of good copper coins stored.

The Great Sui Dynasty attached great importance to this warehouse, and Yang Guang sent the general Li Jing to sit in Lushui Cang because he was not at ease with Luo Yi.

In addition, Li Jing also has an identity, that is, the Taishou of Yuyang County, but he basically does not ask about the government affairs of Yuyang County. Instead, it was thrown to Juncheng, especially when the troubled times came, Li Jing was more cautious and cautious, and abided by his true duties.

In the northeast corner of Lushui Cang, hundreds of craftsmen are busy repairing a section of the Cangcheng city wall that has been in disrepair for a long time, which is a rotational repair of the eighteen-mile city wall, which has been repaired for three months one after another, and this is the last section of the city wall.

Li Jing with dozens of soldiers was watching from afar a few craftsmen busy repairing the bluestone, originally this repair was going to be repaired in half a month, but Li Jing had already received the news that Luo Yi's army was short of food, he was worried that Luo Yi would sneak attack Lushui Cang, so he repaired Cangcheng in advance.

Li Jing received a letter from Su Wei, Pei Ju and other old ministers a few days ago, and also got the Empress Dowager's decree to persuade him to be loyal to the new court, although Li Jing also knew that Zhang Xuan's young Yang Yi was no different from Li Yuanli's Yang Yu, but he Li Jing was not in Guanlong, but in Hebei, in Zhang Xuan's sphere of influence, so instead of taking refuge in the unreliable Li Yuan, it was better to accept the Empress Dowager's decree, Li Jing thought about it again and again, and finally decided to accept the Empress Dowager's canonization and was promoted to the Duke of Beiping.

actually decided to be loyal to the new imperial court, and the materials of the Lushui warehouse belonged to the new imperial court, and Li Jing must continue to defend the Lushui warehouse with all his heart.

At this time, a soldier ran over and reported urgently: "General Qiqi, Lu Juncheng of Yuyang County sent someone to deliver urgent news. ”

Li Jing was stunned for a moment, and immediately stabilized: "Where is the messenger?" Bring him to me. ”

In a moment, a person was brought up by a soldier, who knelt down and cried: "Yuyang County is in danger, beg the general to rescue!"

"What the hell is going on?"

"Gao Kaidao led two thousand troops to kill from the direction of Beiping County, and has broken through Juliang County, slaughtered thousands of people, and is now killing Wuzhong County!"

'High Open Road! ’

Li Jing was taken aback, wasn't it rumored that Gao Kaidao fled to Khitan after his defeat? How could it be killed from Beiping County, could it be

Li Jing suddenly understood a little, it turned out that Gao Kaidao was hidden by Luo Yi, this damn bastard!

Li Jing scolded in a low voice, and hurriedly asked: "I have a thousand soldiers left in Wuzhong County, did Lu Juncheng organize them?" ”

The messenger hesitated slightly, but still replied: "General Qiqi, a thousand soldiers have been organized, but the number is far from enough, Lu Juncheng begged the general to go to the rescue, otherwise Gao Kaidao will slaughter the city." ”

Li Jing's face immediately showed a strange expression, he looked at the messenger with a smile, and said coldly: "I didn't know that there were still a thousand soldiers in Wuzhong County, can you explain to me, where did the army come from?" ”

The messenger was stunned for a moment, his expression became very frightened, he had already reacted, he was on his own, he was so frightened that he knelt down and kowtowed, "The general spares his life!" The general spares his life! ”

Li Jing squatted down and looked at him and said, "You are actually from Jixian County, right!" ”

"Yes, yes."

Lowering his head weakly, he suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly said: "But Gao Kaidao is indeed hiding in Beiping County, and he is willing to make meritorious service to atone for his crimes, and beg the general to spare my life." ”

"It's okay if I don't kill you, but you have to tell me honestly, why did Luo Yi send you? Why did he trick me into going to Yuyang County? ”

"I don't know anything about the big things, but I've heard some rumors."

"Tell me first, what do you know?"

"The lowly position is Cao, a military household in Youzhou, three days ago Luo Yi ordered us to collect taxes in Zhuo County, requiring us to forcibly levy 100,000 stone of grain within a month, and the lowly position felt strange, so he secretly asked Cangcao Han to join the army, only to know that the military food can only support for one month."

"Is this news serious?" Li Jing asked sharply.

"The humble post will never deceive the general, the military rations are indeed insufficient, in fact, the military rations supply quota has been reduced twice, and everyone understands it in their hearts."

Li Jing nodded, and asked again, "Tell me about the rumors you know!" ”

"It is rumored that Li Jiancheng's army defeated Liu Wuzhou in Yanmen County, and Li Jiancheng is about to lead a large army to Youzhou, so the prince wants to attack Lushuicang, and he guesses that if the general goes to rescue Yuyang County, he will be ambushed halfway."

'Lord! Li Jing snorted coldly, since Luo Yi was named the king of Beiping County, he did not allow his subordinates to call him the governor again, but always called him the prince, which really made Li Jing despise.

"Is this just your guess? I mean an ambush halfway! Li Jing continued to ask.

"Actually, when I set off, I heard that an army of 8,000 people had gone east, led by Luo Yi's brother Luo Shou. ”

Li Jing saw that he really didn't know much about this engagement, either guessing or hearing that what he said was of little value, so he waved his hand, "Take him down, and let him go after the matter is over!" (To be continued.) )
