Chapter 268: Punish the Li Clan

A page of the ninth year of the great cause was turned in the whistling north wind, and in this year, Yang Guang conquered Goguryeo three times.

When the great achievement was about to be made, Yang Xuangan rebelled in Liyang, which made Yang Guang's Liao Gong fail and had to withdraw his troops back to the Central Plains. However, it was precisely because Yang Guang retreated back to the Central Plains that Chen Pojun was born out of thin air, stirring up bloody rain in Liaodong, and finally captured Liaodong with his own strength.

Now that Liaodong has been pacified, the whole court and the central government are relieved. Yang Guang was happy, and the embarrassment of being defeated twice in Liaodong in front of the kings and envoys of all over the world was finally less. At this time, he couldn't help but start to ignite the suppressed ambition in his heart again.

The Igo kingdom was destroyed, the Tuyuhun kingdom was destroyed, the Ryukyus kingdom was destroyed, the Linyi was subdued, and Goguryeo is now also destroyed. Where will the next goal be directed? Is it to turn around and return to the Western Regions, which was abandoned due to the Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo, or are you going to teach another lesson, the Eastern Turks have begun to be a little dishonest recently? Yang Guang stood on the huge sheepskin spliced map in the palace, holding a scepter in his hand, pointing to the east and the west at the other.

His heart has already been immersed in the whole world, and he wants to make the whole world not landless, the guest of the land, and the king's minister. He wants to let the name of the Great Sui spread throughout the universe, and let his Yang Guang's name be powerful all over the world.

Yang Guang was intoxicated with his own great cause, but he had already forgotten that although Liaodong was pacified, the Central Plains at this time was even more chaotic.

The Changbai Mountain rebellion led by Wang Bo was repeatedly defeated but fought repeatedly. Liu Badao took advantage of the conditions of many "thieves" in the bean and previous dynasties, and erected a banner there, with more than 100,000 people, called "Uncle Thief". Sun Anzu, a native of Zhangnan, called himself a general, led hundreds of people, and rebelled against Gaojibo Shuqi. Zhang Jin said that the crowd gathered to raise troops in the river meander. Gao Shida, who called himself the Duke of the East China Sea, gathered people to raise troops in Qinghe. Tang Bi, the man who helped the wind, promoted Li Hong as the Son of Heaven and proclaimed himself the King of Tang. Liu Jia, a native of Yan'an, proclaimed himself the emperor. Liu Miao, a native of Shihu, called himself the Son of Heaven. The people of Poyang are begging and call themselves the king of Yuanxing.

Meng Haigong, a native of Jiyin, occupied Zhouqiao in the ninth year of the great cause, and then conquered Cao and Dai prefectures, calling himself "Record", and there were 30,000 people in the heyday.

Meng Rang, a native of Qi County, unveiled the great cause in nine years. He once joined Wang Bo's Changbai Mountain Army, and immediately turned to the Jianghuai region for development, with more than 100,000 people.

Li Zitong, a native of the East China Sea, has set up his own banner from the Changbai Mountain Army. Cangzhou Yangxin Gao Kaidao, who once participated in the bean halogen army, has been working alone.

Beihai Guo Fangpre, Pingyuan Hao Xiaode, Hejian Geqian, and Bohai Sun Xuanya recruited troops again. Lingwu Bai Yusao plundered and plundered horses, connected the Turks in the north, and Longyou was mostly afflicted by it, called "slave thieves". Jiyin Menghai Gong started as a thief, protected Zhouqiao, and the public reached tens of thousands. Peng Xiaocai became a thief, and there were tens of thousands.

Fufeng Sangmen Xiang Haiming also claimed that Maitreya was born, and people have a heart, and the number is tens of thousands. Du Fuwei and the auxiliary Gong Yi Jianghuai army. Zhai Rang's Wagang Army. The king of the upper valley called himself the king of Mantian, and his country name was Yan. After Lu Mingyue, a native of Zhuojun, was defeated by Zhang Xutuo, he once again revived.

Qi County Zuo Xiaoyou, Donghai Peng Xiaocai rebelled.

These are only the stronger ones, if you add the slightly worse strength, then I'm afraid it will take two pages

It's chaotic, the Great Sui is completely chaotic, and in the troubled times, I don't know how many people are kings and how many people are emperors. Calling lonely and widowed is like child's play, or with thousands, or tens of thousands, or even seventy, eighty, or more than one hundred thousand, the whole world is in chaos.

The entire peasant rebellion spread throughout the Great Sui world, as far north as Mayi, Yulin, Shanggu, and Yuyang. South to Gaoliang, Cangwu, Xin'an, east from Wu, Yuhang, Hailing. West to Wuwei, Jincheng, Pingliang, Lingwu. The smoke is everywhere, and the world is in chaos.

However, at this time, Yang Guang had long been immersed in his own great cause, and he really looked down on those peasant uprisings. What he feared most was the rebellion of those aristocratic families, the rebellion of those generals with heavy troops, but the peasants were the least afraid. He destroyed the country, the dead race, and he would be afraid of a few mud legs. …,

Seeing that the emperor was unwilling to listen too much about the bandits, Yu Shiji, Pei Shiju and several other ministers of the court and the central government who participated in political affairs were also smart. But if there is anything about the rebel army, all of them will be suppressed and not reported to Yang Guang. The bandits in the world are becoming more and more traditional, and they are even close to the eastern capital Luoyang, and Yang Guang still doesn't know anything.

Occasionally asked, Yuwen Shu also immediately said, how many bandits have been exterminated. However, he never told Yang Guang that although the bandits had exterminated many of them, there were even more of those who had rebelled.

But at the end of the dynasty, there will always be all kinds of prophecies and nursery rhymes.

King Chen Sheng, Great Chu Xing, and the Great Rebellion at the end of Qin.

The sky is dead, Huang is in Dangli, the age is in Jiazi, and the world is auspicious. The Yellow Turban Uprising at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

And now the Great Sui Dynasty finally appeared such a proverb, which means that the prophecy that will be fulfilled, there is "Tao Li Zhang" said: "Tao Li Zi, the queen around Yangzhou, like a garden." Don't talk to it, who will say yes'

There is also "Song of Peach and Plum", which says: "Peach and plum, Mo Langyu, yellow birds fly around the mountain, like in the garden." Later, there were nursery rhymes circulating in the streets and alleys - peaches and plums, flooding around Yangzhou .......

All the proverbial nursery rhymes point to one thing, the Yang family of the Sui Dynasty will be replaced by the Li family.

Such a rumor was immediately heard by Yu Shi Typhoon to Yang Guang, and Yang Guang, who was full of ambition, changed his face suddenly after seeing the secret letter. And it became ugly, and his face was blue.

If Yang Guang is afraid of a general like Chen Kefu who suddenly rose up and held soldiers and horses. Then, Yang Guang was already on guard against the Guanlong military nobles of the Great Sui day and night.

"Your Majesty, General Yuwenshu of Zuo Yiwei asks to see" Just when Yang Guang received the secret letter, his face was ugly, and the chamberlain reported that General Yuwenshu asked to see him.

As soon as Yu Wenshu saw Yang Guang, he knelt down and saluted and said loudly, "Your Majesty, Li Hun wants to rebel."

Yang Guang was stunned all of a sudden, he had just received a secret letter that it was the Li family on behalf of the Yang family, but now there was a Li Hun rebellion. Yang Guang was already a little frightened, and a rebellion by Yang Xuangan had already made him frightened. Now there is another Li Hun, which really makes him both shocked and angry. Li Hun is not as good as Yang Xuangan, but behind Li Hun is a huge Li valve, in addition to the royal family, the most powerful gate valve today.

The Li Hun family is the family of the brothers Li Mu and Li Xian. When Li Mu and Li Xian were in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, they were already a country of eight pillars. By Li Hun's generation, Li Valve already had a number of national princes and more than ten national marquises, among which there were many generals and senior generals of the Zhu State, and there were nearly 200 of the entire Li Valve from the children of the fifth rank or above. And what is even more alarming is that as a military aristocrat of Guanlong, most of these people are military generals.

Among the twelve guards of the military generals of the fifth grade, it is the Eagle Yang Lang general who unifies more than 1,000 people. In the four mansions, that is also the high-level general in charge of the palace Praetorian Guard. Nearly 200 high-ranking generals are all members of the same clan. It is conceivable that the royal family is afraid of the Li family, and it is always on guard. However, the Li valve here does not include Li Yuan's family, Li Yuan is Li Hu's grandson, he is another family, although he is also Li Yuan, but his power is much smaller, and he is also Yang Guang's cousin, which can be regarded as trustworthy.

At the time of the Northern Dynasties, the various dynasties were basically replaced by the military lords. The Northern Zhou Dynasty of the Western Wei Dynasty, the Northern Zhou Dynasty of the Sui Dynasty, and now the Li valve is the largest gate valve of the Sui Dynasty, how can Yang Guang not worry. Although Chen Kefu is also jealous, compared to Li Valve, it is really a heaven and an underground. Chen Kefu is just a new upstart, with no foundational power. Li Hun's family is different, there are hundreds of princes and generals, thousands of officials, and the real number one valve in the world is much more prosperous than his Yang family. How not to worry Yang Guang, if one is not good, it is really possible to be replaced. …,

Yuwenshu and Li Hun were originally pro-Wei, and Yuwenshu once helped Li Hun snatch the title of Duke of Guo from Li Mu's nephew. For this reason, Li Hun handed over the fief tax of his companion to Yuwenshu every year, but after giving it for a few years, he was reluctant. What kind of person is Yu Wenshu, a close minister of the Son of Heaven, who is ruthless, and he has already written it down after suffering such a loss.

This time, as soon as he saw the rumors outside, he immediately ran to attack and frame Li Hun for rebellion. There is a way that it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, and how can a person like Yuwenshu be offended.

Seeing the emperor's face, Yu Wenshu knew that the matter was almost over, and said busily, "The minister and Li Hun have always been friendly, and their tastes are very different from before. often talks with Li Min, Li Shanheng, etc., day and night, or sleepless. Li Hun is a minister, his family is prosperous, and as a general of the Praetorian Guard, it is not appropriate to do so, and I hope Your Majesty will check it. In a word, Li Hun was completely dragged into hell.

Hearing this, Yang Guang no longer cares whether it is true or false, he has already made up his mind and takes this opportunity to completely eradicate Li Valve

"I will leave this matter to you with full power to hear, and the result of the trial must be reached, if Li Hun really rebels, I will naturally not let it go. If it's just a villain's rumor, then I won't treat the country's meritorious family badly. "Yang Guang's words are already very clear, whether it is true or not, as long as you come up with ironclad evidence during the interrogation. With ironclad evidence, the eradication of Li Valve can give an explanation to other families.

First, Yang Xuan was rebellious, and then Li Hun's family was involved in rebellion. Yang Guang finally couldn't sit still, these Guanlong family lords of the Great Sui were basically the big lords of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. These families were much stronger than the Yang family at the beginning, but because they were usurped by the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Yang Jian always continued to retain the status and power of those big lord families. But now, Yang Guang can't help it.

The peasants of the world are rebelling, he is not afraid, what he is afraid of is that at this time, those big lords of the family will rebel. The first strike is strong, and the second strike suffers. Taking advantage of the fact that Liaodong had just been pacified, Yang Guang began to set off a round of purges. Yu Wenshu did not disappoint him, and successfully obtained the evidence of Li Hun's rebellion, although it was a trick to be beaten, but Yang Guang didn't care at all, all he wanted was a reason.

Supporting the upstarts and eliminating the old valves, Yang Guang once again took his eyes off Chen Kefu, Yu Shiji and other upstarts, and instead waved a butcher's knife at the Guanlong military aristocratic lord, punishing the Li family. Thirty-two people including Li Hun and Li Min were beheaded, and the rest of the thousands of people were all exiled to the frontier .......
