Chapter 2 Windfall

After all, Su Wei is an old bureaucrat, he was just shocked that Yang Yuanqing appeared in Guanzhong at this time, but as soon as he thought about it, he reacted, Yang Yuanqing could not surrender Li Yuan, Li Yuan killed Yang Xuangan, how could he surrender, besides, even if Yang Yuanqing surrendered, he would not use the red flag of the Sui Dynasty, he was here to demonstrate to Li Yuan.

"I see!"

Su Wei laughed and gave a thumbs up, "Okay!" is worthy of Yang Yuanqing, the first in the world. ”

Yang Yuanqing saw that Su Wei was sitting in an ox cart, not even an entourage, only an elderly coachman, so he smiled slightly: "Actually, I made a special trip to invite Su Xiangguo to Fengzhou. ”

Although he knew that this was just a joke, it touched Su Wei's heart, he thought of Li Yuan's cold treatment of him, and his heart became resentful, and he remembered that Yang Yuanqing saved Gao Xi at the beginning, but he was much more affectionate and righteous than Li Yuan, but he was old, can he withstand the cold of Fengzhou?

"Manager Yang, if I were ten years younger, I would definitely go to Fengzhou to help you, but I am so old, what can I do in Fengzhou? Why don't I recommend a person to you, who is talented, but unfortunately this person is not at the right time and fell into the hands of thieves. ”

Yang Yuanqing knew that Su Wei was actually not optimistic about himself, if Dou Jiande invited him, or Li Mi invited him, he might agree, Fengzhou is a remote area, a bitter cold place on the border, and many people, including Su Wei, think that they can't become a climate.

Although Su Wei's character is slightly lacking, he can only be regarded as a politician, far from being comparable to Gao Gong, but Yang Yuanqing has taken a fancy to his fame, Mo said that Su Wei has not been used by Li Yuan, even if he does, he will snatch him, whether he wants to or not.

Yang Yuanqing remained silent, and asked with a smile: "I don't know who Su Xiangguo recommends?" ”

Su Wei smiled and said: "Actually, you also know this person, he was a squire in the military department in the Wuju case, and he was demoted to Zhangye County as a long history, and later he was demoted to a commoner because of the expedition to Goryeo, do you have any impression of this person?" ”

"Li Gang!"

Yang Yuanqing blurted out, Su Wei nodded and smiled: "It's this person." ”

Yang Yuanqing has a clear reputation. He was an extremely capable minister, so he asked urgently: "The elder said that this person is caught in a thief?" ”

Su Wei then remembered that Li Gang had a bad relationship with Yang Yuanqing's grandfather Yang Su, and he didn't know that Li Gang was willing to help Yang Yuanqing, but since he said it, he had to smile bitterly: "Li Gang was captured in the army by the thief He Panren and forced to make his long history, but He Panren has surrendered to Li Yuan." Li Gang will inevitably be used by Li Yuan. In just these two days, if the manager wants to use him, he must hurry. ”

Yang Yuanqing came to Guanzhong just to deter Li Yuan. hit his arrogance, but he didn't expect to meet Su Wei, and there was also news of Li Gang. This made Yang Yuanqing, who was eager for talent, no longer care about demonstrating to Li Yuan, and he hurriedly asked: "Where is this He Panren?" ”

"This person's nest is in Sizhuyuan, Wugong County, but now all the surrendered bandits are stationed outside the Anhua Gate, waiting for Li Yuan to be absorbed one by one, He Panren's troops are also there, and Li Gang should still be in the bandit barracks now."

"Thank you Su Xiangguo, but His Royal Highness the Acting King is now in Fengzhou, and I still want to invite Su Xiangguo to go to Fengzhou and be the teacher of the acting king. What is Su Xiangguo's opinion? ”

Su Wei heard that the acting king was in Fengzhou, and he didn't feel a little excited, with Yang Yuanqing's strength and ambition, he should not be satisfied with Fengzhou, I heard that he even occupied Lingwu County, and now he has the name of acting king, he is actually only missing a foundation now.

Come to think of this. Su Wei arched his hand and smiled: "Please allow me to go home and think again, if I figure it out, I will definitely come thousands of miles to vote." ”

Although it should be like this according to common sense, Yang Yuanqing knew that once Li Yuan woke up. and sent someone to invite Su Wei, but he may not be willing to follow him. Since he was destined to meet him, he would not let Su Wei go again.

Yang Yuanqing didn't explain to him, he saw a rather gorgeous carriage coming in the distance, so he gave the left and right guards a look, more than a dozen guards rushed up, and drove a wealthy businessman sitting inside out of the carriage, the soldiers brought the carriage over, and whispered a few words to Yang Yuanqing, Yang Yuanqing glanced into the carriage, there was still a person inside, he nodded, and motioned for this person to stay for Su Wei.

"Please Su Xiangguo get in the car!"

Several soldiers forced Su Wei to put him in the carriage, and Su Wei shouted: "Chief Yang, you can't do this to me!" ”

Yang Yuanqing laughed, "First wronged Xiangguo, I will definitely apologize to Xiangguo in the future, there is still one person in the car, you can accompany Su Xiangguo to talk on the road." ”

He waved his hand, "Escort Su Xiangguo to Fengzhou!" ”

A team of 100 cavalry guarded the carriage and headed north, Su Wei sat in the carriage, his heart was in turmoil, but he was helpless, but the road to Fengzhou was long, how to pass the time on the road?

Suddenly, he heard the sound of Suo Suo behind him, and when he turned around, he found a beautiful young woman in a palace dress hiding in the corner of the carriage.

He was stunned, "You ......, who are you?" ”

The woman was so frightened that she said timidly: "I'm the singer of Qiaoyuefang, the big businessman ransomed me just now, I don't know where he went?" ”

"Merchant?"

Su Wei shook his head contemptuously, he glanced at the woman again, and said with a smile: "Do you know who the old man is?" ”

…………

There are a large camp camps stationed outside the Anhua Gate, all of which are more than a dozen bandits from all over Guanzhong who came to surrender to Li Yuan, the banners are mottled, the clothes are uneven, and there is no sentry camp gate, more than a dozen bandits have their own corners, the camp is noisy and noisy, drinking and boxing, and from time to time prostitutes with heavy makeup come out of the big tent, which looks very chaotic.

At this time, a group of 100 cavalry entered the camp, they lined up neatly, majestic, with a white scarf on their left arm, this is the difference between Li Yuan's army and the Sui army, the cavalry team passed through the camp with indifferent eyes, and came to a big tent, which was the big tent of the bandit He Panren.

He Panren was a Hu merchant in the Western Regions, who pulled a team of tens of thousands of people and followed Li Xiuning to attack Yang Xuanxuan and Yang Wei's troops, made meritorious achievements, and was waiting for Li Yuan's reward.

He was discussing the etiquette of meeting Li Yuan with Li Gang, who was demoted by Yang Guang at home, but was forcibly invited from home by He Panren, and was forced to make his long history, the so-called long history, only to help him write letters, issue some military orders, and nothing else.

Li Gang was trying to find a way to get out, so he smiled and said: "I have a very good personal relationship with Dou Wei, who joined the army under the account of the prime minister, why don't I go talk to Dou Wei first, and let him persuade the prime minister to give He Gong a high position, how about it?" ”

He Panren was born as a businessman and was good at taking all kinds of relationships, he was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly said: "I will prepare another generous gift, and Mr. will give it to Dou Gong for me!" ”

At this time, a soldier outside the tent came to report: "Marshal, there is a team of cavalry outside, sent by the prince of Tang Gong, please Mr. Li to go and talk." ”

He Panren was stunned and asked Li Gang: "Mr. knows the son?" ”

Li Gang sighed in his heart, he was a famous minister of the Great Sui, no one in the court knew him, and only a vulgar person like He Panren didn't take him seriously, he nodded slightly, "I've seen it twice!" ”

He Panren was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "I will prepare another generous gift and transfer it to the prince for me." ”

Li Gang shook his head secretly in his heart, a businessman is a businessman, he only knows how to buy and sell for profit, he stood up and walked out.

Out of the camp tent, outside the tent is a team of 100 cavalry, all powerful and strong, for the head of the cavalry captain stepped forward to salute "under the tent of the prince is the pro-soldier captain Luo Miao, the prince has always admired Mr., I wanted to visit Mr. in person, but I was really busy, so I could only grieve Mr. to go with us." ”

The cavalry captain said extremely respectfully, giving Li Gang enough face, Li Gang did not have the slightest doubt, and he could not have doubts, so he nodded, "Then let's go!" ”

Li Gang turned over and got on his horse and followed a team of cavalry, He Panren looked at Li Gang's back and sighed in his heart, he knew that he couldn't keep Li Gang, so he could only hope that he would see his affection for him and say a few good words to himself in front of Tang Gong.

Watching Li Gang's back disappear, He Panren turned around to enter the big tent, but several officials rushed to it, turned over and dismounted, and shouted: "Li Gang is here, Tang Gong wants to see him!" ”

He Panren scratched his head, pointed to the back of Li Gang, who had disappeared in the distance, and said, "Just now, the prince sent someone to invite him away, and he just left. ”

The official was also a little stunned, the prince was with Tang Gong, why didn't he say it?

…………

Although the defense of Guanzhong has not yet had time to be arranged, there are still defensive loopholes, but the defense of Chang'an City is extremely tight, Yang Yuanqing's five thousand cavalry is still five miles away from Chang'an City, it was discovered by the sentry outside Chang'an City, and urgently returned to the city to report.

At this time, the general in charge of the defense of Chang'an City was Li Yuan's son-in-law Chai Shao, and he received a report from the sentry that a strange cavalry, about 5,000 people, was found a few miles away from Chang'an City, waving the red flag of the Sui Dynasty.

This news made Chai Shao very nervous, he knew that Li Yuan's cavalry was not much, only 15,000 people, all stationed in the city, who would be the 5,000 cavalry from the west? Dou Kang's army? It's impossible, Dou Kang's subordinates are all county soldiers, and there are definitely not so many cavalry.

Chai Shao's heart was full of nervousness and doubts, and he immediately ordered the city gate to be closed, and at the same time sent someone to report to Li Yuan urgently.

Chai Shao stood on top of the Mingde Gate, his eyebrows locked, staring into the distance, and soon, the soldiers around him shouted, "It's coming!" Here it comes! ”

Chai Shao also saw it, a few miles away in the dust, a black pressure cavalry is rushing along the official road to this side, although the people on both sides are scared and stumbling, but they do not kill, Chai Shao saw the banner in this army, his heart seemed to sink into the abyss at once, he saw a red flag, is a winged eagle, the red eagle flag, the battle flag of the Fengzhou army, Chai Shao was stunned.

In an instant, five thousand cavalry galloped to the city, Yang Yuanqing came out of the team, he saw Chai Shao in the city, stepped forward and said coldly: "General Chai, don't come unharmed?" ”

"Yang Yuanqing!"

Chai Shao couldn't believe his eyes, Yang Yuanqing actually killed under Chang'an City, and he only felt a tingling in his scalp.
