In fact, in this edict of King Qin, the latter part makes all the families strong and strong, and it is not necessary for local officials to recruit soldiers and horses. There is a way that far water can't quench the thirst of the near, and now there are so many government soldiers in the Great Sui world, as long as an order goes down and the government soldiers from all over the country gather, it will be more than enough. Letting those officials and families recruit soldiers and horses is completely a matter of adding to the problem.

The newly recruited soldiers and horses could not form an army without a year and a half of training. Even if such soldiers and horses can really rush to Yanmen, they will have no effect except to make up the number of people. And what is even more important is that now an edict can allow these people to raise soldiers and horses, but it will be difficult for him to disband again in the future.

And Li Shimin fought with this idea, and this encounter in Shenwu City and Xicheng Pass had a great change for him. At the beginning, he had more ideas than Chen Kefu in his heart, and for this idea, he did not hesitate to betray the Liaodong Army. And the battle of Shenwu Pass, which narrowly escaped death, made him feel that survival is the most important thing. In Xixi Pass, he had just picked up a life, but he was immediately left behind by Yang Guang in Xixi Pass, and later encountered Daniel Zhang, a former brother of the Liaodong Army. After escaping death again, coupled with the disfigurement of the broken wall, Li Shimin changed. It was this time that Li Shimin went north and stood up, and there was no shackles in his heart that could not be broken. Chen Pojun and Yang Guang couldn't stop him.

The city of Yanmen was already besieged and impassable, and the messengers of Menxia Province could not leave the city, so they had to tie the carrier pigeons and eagle tuǐ that accompanied the army with edicts one after another and release them out of the city.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the carrier pigeon and the flying eagle flew out of the city, they had already been shot down by the archers arranged by Jieli. The Turkic archers picked up a dozen pigeons and flying eagles and hurriedly sent them to Jieli.

After getting these letters, Jieli hurriedly and proudly took them to Shibi Khan. Knowing that these letters had been sent out by birds in the city, Shi Bi attached great importance to them and hurriedly gathered the chiefs of the various tribes to watch them. Among the Turkic leaders, most of the tribes did not know Chinese characters, and they looked at the horizontal and vertical heads that were big. Busy with the literacy, but the literacy leaders also look big. The words on these letters were separated, and they knew each of them, but if they were put together, they would not understand the meaning at all, and they would be all meaningless nonsense.

Even Shibi Khan, the Great Khan who had a Central Plains Kedun, watched it for a long time, but he didn't understand anything, but his head was confused. As a last resort, I had to let people quickly invite Daniel Zhang. Daniel Zhang picked up the letter and read it for a long time, and said with a smile, "Great Khan, these are secret letters, although they are all Chinese characters, but in fact, each of these words is just a code name that is by no means literal." Only those who know the secret text can know what it means. ”

"Why can't Ben Khan understand you?" Shi Bi listened to Daniel Zhang's explanation, but was confused.

Daniel Zhang pointed to one of the letters, "This is a specially encrypted letter, specially designed to prevent interception." There are many ways to decrypt the secret letter, and if you don't know the agreed decryption method in advance, then you can never know the meaning of the letter. However, although I don't know the meaning of this letter, I can guess that it must be Yang Guang in the city who is sending an edict to the ministers from all over the Central Plains, asking them to bring troops to Yanmen to rescue them. Therefore, the Great Khan does not have much time, so it is better to attack the city as soon as possible and take Yang Guangwei. ”

Shibi Khan saw that his group of leaders had been here for a long time, and they were originally played by Yang Guang, so he suddenly became angry and threw all these edicts in his hands into the brazier.

"Jieli, Chuluo, Qiji, Tuli, how are the siege equipment that Ben Khan asked you to prepare?"

"Back to the Great Khan, our department has already completed all the 1,000 ladders." Jieli stepped forward.

"Our department has also made 200 catapults, which are ready to be put into use." Chu Luo is not far behind.

Qi Ji and Tu Li were also busy reporting on the production of their two equipment, and Shi Bi was very satisfied with it, "Okay, we didn't have any equipment last time, and we almost took Yanmen City." This time, with so much preparation, he will definitely be able to take Yanmen in one fell swoop. The order went down, let the departments slaughter cattle and sheep, let the sons and daughters have a full meal, and attack the city at midnight tonight, killing Yang Guang Xiao'er by surprise. ”

"Compliance"

When the gate of Yanmen was closed, the Tongshi people of Menxia Province saw that the dozen carrier pigeons and flying eagles that had just been released had not escaped the archers of the Turks, and after all of them were shot down, their faces turned pale with fright, and they hurriedly ran down to the city to report. …,

Feiyun Temple in Yanmen City, incense has always been vigorous, and there are many good men and women, and it is famous far and wide. In the early years, the temple owner traveled all over the world, turned a large amount of floating wealth, rebuilt the Feiyun Temple, rebuilt the golden body for the big Buddha offered in the temple, and built the new Daxiong Treasure Hall. However, at this time, this Feiyun Temple was tightly guarded inside and out, and not even an ant could fly in.

The Daxiong Treasure Hall in the temple has also temporarily made Yang Guang's Jinluan Treasure Palace, and the rows of side rooms in the temple have all become Yang Guang's palace bedrooms. At this time, Yang Guangzheng, Empress Xiao, Princess Izumo and the crown prince Yang Gao's family of four were eating a simple dinner with only a dozen dishes.

The crown prince Yang Gao was only eight years old, and he couldn't help but say while eating, "Sister Huang, I saw that Li Shimin today." Sure enough, he had a broken arm, and he had a very frightening scar on his face. ”

Yang Ji'er just hummed, but didn't say anything, just glanced at Yang Guang and Empress Xiao, and there was no brilliance in his eyes.

Empress Xiao put down the dishes and chopsticks, "Your Majesty, has the Li family really become like that?" "Empress Xiao still has a good impression of Li Shimin in the past, but when she heard the prince's description, she couldn't help but hesitate, how can she let the princess marry him now."

Yang Guang took the wine glass and drank the wine one by one, and the wine in the glass was not a good wine, but just some ordinary ale wine. This kind of bad wine is really the first time in his life to drink it, bitter but without fragrance, but Yang Guang doesn't seem to care. Hearing the queen's words, Yang Guang sighed, suddenly stared at the princess and said, "Do you really plan to marry Chen Kefu in this life?" ”

The princess also stopped, "Yes, my daughter will not marry Chen Kefu in this life, if not, she will be a bhikshuni, with green lights and yellow scrolls, and she will be lonely in this life." ”

"If you marry Chen Pojun, he will either lose his husband or his father one day, and he will not be able to have both, are you willing to bear this pain?" Yang Guang's voice was low, and he said in a lonely tone.

The princess could not answer, and wept aloud. Yang Guang sighed, dropped the wine glass in his hand, and got up to leave. As soon as he didn't take many steps out of the door, the chief eunuch Wang Gonggong had already rushed over, "Your Majesty, Pei Nayan is waiting to see you outside, that is, I have an urgent matter to see." ”

"Take him to the study, where I will see him." Yang Guang walked slowly and went to the scripture building of Feiyun Temple, which was full of Buddhist scriptures, and now became Yang Guang's imperial study.

"Your Majesty, just now the people of the Accommodating House have come to report that all the flying pigeons and eagles with the edict have been shot down by the Turkic archers, and not a single one has flown out." As soon as he entered the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, Pei Shiju said hurriedly.

"What? Is this serious? As soon as Yang Guang heard this, he finally couldn't sit still anymore, stood up and walked around the room. If the edict cannot be issued, the strategy that has been discussed with the ministers will be useless.

"Immediately send an edict to the ministers to the main hall to discuss matters." Yang Guang turned his head to the side and said loudly.

The ministers who were urgently summoned were also stunned when they heard what Pei Shiju had told them. No one thought that the Turks would have such a trick. Not only was the water around Yanmen impassable, but the messengers could not leave the city. Now even the sky is sealed, and not even a single bird can fly out.
