Wang Shan is the younger brother of Wang Shou, the head of the Taiyuan Wang family, Zhang Xuan found out from the scholar Wang Junya that Wang Shou has fully fallen to the Great Zhou, so the Wang family, which has a major impact on Taiyuan, can help him in taking Taiyuan?

Wang Shan was slightly stunned, and hurriedly said, "What does Your Majesty need Weichen to do?" ”

"I want to know, are there any generals you are familiar with in the Taiyuan garrison?"

Wang Shan immediately understood what the Son of Heaven meant, he thought for a while and said, "At present, there are no children of the Wang family in the Taiyuan garrison, but we can influence many generals, and two of them have a significant influence. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"Which two?" Jang Hyun asked.

"One is Pei Hongjian, he is Pei Lian's nephew, but he is also the son-in-law of the Wang family, and the other is Wang Junkuo."

"Wang Junkuo?"

Zhang Xuan was stunned, "Does he have a relationship with the Wang family?" ”

"Your Majesty, Wang Junkuo's background is not very good, which has a great impact on him, so he has always been close to the Taiyuan Wang family, hoping that his father's tablet can also be put into the Wang ancestral hall, he said that this is his father's only wish before his death, to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors."

"Is there a relationship between Wang Junkuo and the Taiyuan Wang family?"

Wang Shan smiled bitterly and said: "It's hard to say, he is a native of Shiai County, Taiyuan County, Taiyuan Wang does have a branch in Shiai County, but that was at least forty years ago, and it is a side branch, and more importantly, Wang Junkuo can't get a family tree, Your Majesty also knows that Wang is a big surname, there are at least a million people with the surname Wang in the world, and there are only two really famous families, one is Taiyuan Wang's, and the other is the Wang family who crossed Nandu during the Wuhu Chaos China, as for the Wang family in other places, it generally doesn't matter much." ”

Zhang Xuan thought for a while and said, "Then what is your brother's attitude, and is he willing to accept Wang Junkuo's father's spiritual position?" ”

"This is not something that the elder brother can decide alone, according to the clan rules, it needs to be decided by several elders through consultation."

Zhang Xuan pondered for a moment and said: "If I can win Wang Junkuo over, I feel that there is hope for taking over Taiyuan peacefully, so tell your brother!" I hope that the Wang family can also do their part for the peaceful recovery of Taiyuan, and I believe that he does not want to see the lives of Taiyuan in misery. ”

Wechen understood, and Wechen immediately wrote to tell his brother.

"Is there a way to get in touch?" Jang Hyun asked.

Wang Shan nodded, "There is a flying pigeon connection between the mansion in the city and the manor outside the city, as long as Weichen sends the letter to the manor outside the city, the manor steward will send the pigeon letter to the city, so it will be connected." ”

Zhang Xuan's heart moved, this was a way to contact Taiyuan City.

He smiled and said, "I hope there will be good news from Taiyuan!" ”

At this time, the guards outside the door reported: "Your Majesty, the military advisor urgently asks to see you." ”

"Let him in!"

Wang Shan hurriedly said goodbye and left, and at this time, Fang Xuanling hurriedly walked in, holding a red eagle letter in his hand, which meant that there were 100,000 urgent things happening.

"Is there something wrong with Chang'an?" Jang Hyun asked.

Fang Xuanling smiled slightly, "It's news that Your Majesty is interested in." ”

He presented the eagle letter to Zhang Xuan, "This is an urgent letter from the Intelligence Agency, the Guanlong nobles have rebelled in Guanzhong. ”

Jae Hyun was overjoyed, and the moment he had been waiting for for a long time finally came.

.........

Li Yuan still underestimated the determination of the Guanlong nobles to protect their fundamental interests, and when Li Yuanji imprisoned fifteen family heads to the tenth day, news suddenly came from Fufeng County, headed by the Dugu family, including the Yuan family, the Yu family, the Zhao family, the Hou Mo Chen family, and so on, a total of about 20,000 troops of the ten major families gathered in Yongxian County, playing the slogan of 'Qing Jun's side, Zheng Chaogang', led by the general Dugu Huaide, and slaughtered towards Chang'an.

Just when the army gathered in Yongxian, the county commander of Yongxian County sent someone to Chang'an secretly to report the news urgently, which shocked Li Yuan so much that he couldn't sleep, and convened important ministers overnight to discuss countermeasures.

In the Wude Palace, more than 20 important ministers gathered together, and as the direct initiator of the Guanlong aristocratic incident, Li Yuanji also attended this important meeting.

There was silence in the lobby, and I saw Li Yuan say with a sad expression: "I didn't expect that it would be such a result, the group of people I rely on and trust the most have betrayed me and gathered 20,000 troops to march into Chang'an, what do they want to do?" Do you want to overthrow my society? I will not tolerate it, nor do I want to tolerate it, I have summoned you here tonight, not to seek any compromise solution, I will resolutely suppress it, and I hope you will contribute from this perspective. ”

After Li Yuan finished speaking, Pei Lin stood up and said, "Your Majesty, please allow Weichen to speak first." ”

Li Yuan nodded with satisfaction, "Pei Xiangguo is willing to take the initiative, I am very happy, please say it!" ”

"Your Majesty, since the heads of these Guanlong nobles are in the hands of Your Majesty, in fact, it is extremely easy to deal with this rebel army, escort the family masters to the front of the battle, and let them order the army to lay down their arms and surrender, the minister thinks that even if they are hard-mouthed for a while, but when it comes to life and death, they still want to save their lives."

Li Yuan nodded, Pei Lian's suggestion was consistent with his thoughts, but he still wanted to hear some broader and deeper opinions, he saw that Chen Shuda seemed to have something to say, but Chen Shuda looked at Dou Jin next to him, but he refused to say more, Li Yuan understood what he meant, Dou Jin was also a member of the Guanlong aristocracy, Chen Shuda had something difficult to say in front of him.

Li Yuan turned his gaze to Li Shentong and asked him, "Does the King of Huai'an have any plan to quell the chaos?" ”

The reason why Li Yuan asked Li Shentong was because the army in Guanzhong was under his control, and he should know the current situation better than anyone else.

Li Shentong nodded and sighed: "Your Majesty, the situation is indeed more complicated now, as far as Weichen knows, only a small part of the army of the Guanlong nobles is in Guanzhong, most of them are distributed in Longxi County, Tianshui County and Honghua County, and now they are actually gathered in Yongxian County, Weichen's biggest worry is that the five thousand defenders of Dasanguan have surrendered, otherwise how could they enter Guanzhong silently, if so, their army is more than 20,000 people, at least 25,000 people." ”

"It's normal for the army in Dasanguan to surrender."

Dou Jin, who had been silent, spoke: "Sima Wende, the main general of Dasanguan, was recommended by the Dugu family to join the office, and their ancestors and grandchildren are all generals of the Dugu family, in addition, Your Majesty also has to prevent the surrender of generals in other armies, and there are many children of Guanlong nobles in the Tang Army, Weichen feels that it is better for Your Majesty to clean up the army first, so as not to have a defection." ”

Li Yuan's face changed suddenly, Dou Jin said to the core, the Guanlong nobles had a deep penetration in the army during the Sui Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty was no exception, in addition to the clansmen who were directly in charge of the army, there were also their protégés, family generals, slaves, etc., all of whom served in a large number of positions in the army, and the 20,000 Royal Forest Army were basically Guanlong's children, and it was impossible to figure out how many of them had a relationship with the Guanlong nobles.

Li Yuan suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem, the reason why the army of the Guanlong nobles dared to rebel was because they had no fear.

At this time, Li Yuan glanced at Chen Shuda again, and said: "It's already late at night, everyone go back to rest first, and then discuss the matter of sending troops early tomorrow morning." ”

Everyone got up and left, Li Yuan gave Li Shentong another look and asked him to stay, and after a while, only Li Yuan, Chen Shuda and Li Shentong were left in the main hall.

Li Yuan asked: "Chen Xiangguo wanted to say just now, what did he want to say?" ”

Chen Shuda smiled slightly, "Your Majesty, Weichen actually wants to say that this is a good opportunity. ”

Li Yuan's spirits perked up, and he hurriedly asked, "What chance, Xiangguo said carefully." ”

"Your Majesty, the army of the Guanlong nobles has actually been a hidden danger of the Tang Dynasty, everyone used to sit at the same table to eat, the face was passable, and the Guanlong nobles would not make trouble, but since the Yu Yun incident, the Guanlong nobles began to fall to Zhang Xuan, and the Guanlong nobles have become our biggest hidden danger, it is conceivable that once the Zhou army goes down from the southwest of the river and the soldiers suppress the right of Long, will the Guanlong nobles welcome the Zhou army into Guanzhong as they did when they welcomed His Majesty? If it weren't for the rebellion of the Guanlong nobles this time, we would never have imagined that the Dasanguan, which is famous for its steepness and precipitousness, would be lost so easily, to be honest, Weichen was lucky. ”

"Chen Xiangguo said it very incisively!"

Li Shentong rarely praised Chen Shuda, today Chen Shuda also said that his heart is on the road, he said to Li Yuan: "Your Majesty, Sima Wende, the main general of Dasanguan, was originally a Sui general, a native of Tianshui County, and his younger brother thought he was very capable, so he was promoted to the chief general of Dasanguan, but if it wasn't for Dou Jin exposing his details today, the younger brother wouldn't know that he was actually a general of the Dugu family. ”

Li Yuan nodded, and asked Chen Shuda again, "Is the opportunity that Xiangguo said is to wipe out the Guanlong nobles?" ”

Chen Shuda nodded, "Since they rebelled, then we have an excuse to deal with them, deprive them of their land, property and food, I believe that Your Majesty will reap a very rich harvest, which will completely improve our unfavorable situation of material shortage and financial constraints, with a large amount of land, we can use land to reward military merits, which is conducive to us to continue to compete with Zhang Xuan, Your Majesty, this is an opportunity for us to turn the tables." ”
