Chapter 217: Three Lines of Defense

The news of Xue Shixiong's defeat at Qilijing reached Luoyang, and Luoyang was in an uproar.

Who would have thought that Xue Shixiong, who was the first of the Wise Emperor, would overturn a big boat in the small ditch of Qilijing.

Yang Tong sat on the main seat, looking at the battle report in his hand, and 10,000 grass and mud horses galloped past in his heart.

"His Royal Highness King Yue, please rest assured, Old General Xue was careless and fell for the thieves' tricks, since we have come to Luoyang today, we will definitely slash Li Mi's people under the knife." Wang Shichong had a beard on his face, the characteristics of the Hu people were very obvious, and he couldn't hold back the ecstasy in his heart and said, as soon as Xue Shixiong died, he would be the highest military general who came to aid Luoyang.

As for Huangfu Wuyi, Yang Guang had long been disappointed in the weakness he showed in the battle against Li Mi.

"The ministers will definitely defeat Li Mi! Defend Luoyang! General Wang Long, Hebei Arrest Ambassador Wei Ji, and Henan Arrest Ambassador Wang Wei said in unison.

Yang Tong showed a pale smile, and said helplessly: "Then there are generals Lao!" ”

"The last general will live up to His Royal Highness King Yue!" The generals shouted.

"However, I have just arrived and the soldiers are physically and mentally exhausted, and I am afraid that they will not be able to fight in a short time?" Wang Shichong frowned.

The other generals also nodded tacitly, the emperor is not hungry, since he came to Luoyang City, why should His Royal Highness King Yue also express it!

"Rest assured, generals, the rewards of the various armies will be delivered tomorrow." Yang Tong said helplessly.

"Thank you, His Royal Highness King Yue!" The crowd will be overjoyed.

When Wang Shichong and other generals left, Yang Tong's face became gloomy.

A wave of anger surged into his heart, and these arrogant soldiers didn't take him Yang Tong in their eyes at all.

"His Royal Highness the King of Qiyue! I'm afraid Luoyang doesn't have much money left to reward them? Wei Jin stepped out.

"Then borrow it from the Imperial Bank!" Yang Tong said angrily.

"I've borrowed a lot from the Imperial Bank before. I'm afraid the Imperial Bank has refused. Wei Jin said with a bitter face.

"Then Daxingcheng is pulling down the grain from the warehouse, and after pulling the warehouse, there is still Hanjiacang until it is finished." Yang Tong's long-suppressed anger finally broke out and roared loudly.

A series of defeats made the anger in his heart accumulate little by little, and now after Wang Shichong and others, Yang Tong couldn't help it at all.

Wei Jin and other ministers of Luoyang were silent, and they were helpless about the situation in Luoyang.

Obviously, Luoyang's troops are superior, and there is a steady stream of support from Daxing City, how can the situation fall to such a point.

…………

Daxing Palace, inside the Chengtian Palace.

Outside the temple, the rain was like a note. The temple was silent,

Yang Yu stood by the window and looked at the torrential rain outside the window, holding the battle report in his hand, and sighed constantly in his heart.

The wheels of history roll forward. There is an amazing inertia. Xue Shixiong was comically defeated. Wang Shichong came to Luoyang, and the battle of Huoyi will be restarted, such a similar historical trajectory. made Yang Yu full of vigilance against Li Yuan.

Historically, Yang Yu was defeated at this moment, and was attacked by Li Yuan in one fell swoop, and broke through Daxing City to become a puppet.

In this life, Yang Yu has made great efforts to change his fate, and now the entire Guanzhong is stable, not like in history, and he eliminated Xue Ju, a hungry wolf, in advance.

100,000 new recruits have been re-recruited and are in the midst of intense training, and Daxingcheng's powerful industrial base is constantly producing a large number of strategic materials, and the form of Guanzhong is more than ten times better than that of the previous life.

Yang Yu turned around and looked at the Chengtian Palace,

In the hall, a huge sand table is placed in the middle, this sand table is huge, it is actually the territory of the entire Great Sui Dynasty, on the sand table, all kinds of flags are lined up, making people's scalp numb.

Yang Yu sighed in his heart: "The situation in the world has eroded to this point, why is Yang Guang still staying in Jiangnan?" ”

This question is not only confused by Yang Yun, but also by the whole world.

Yin Shishi, Gu Yi, Li Jing, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui were surrounded by the sand table, and all their brows couldn't help frowning, now Luoyang and Jiangdu are almost a lonely city, if it weren't for the stability of Guanzhong and Shuzhong, I'm afraid that the rivers and mountains of the Sui Dynasty would be really dangerous.

Everyone couldn't help but sigh, that is, the thirteen-year-old boy in front of him independently supported the entire Great Sui Dynasty, it can be said that there are now two banners in the entire Sui Dynasty, one is Yang Guang and the other is Yang Yu, as for Yang Tong, he was automatically ignored by everyone.

"His Royal Highness! Luoyang sent a secret letter, asking for a loan of one million yuan from the Imperial Bank to offset the account with the grain from Xingluocang! Fang Xuanling said.

Now Fang Xuanling, as Yang Yu's attendant, helps Yang Yu organize his internal affairs, and in just one month, his capable ability has been recognized by the ministers, which has freed Yang Yu from heavy government affairs and made it very easy.

Yang Yu thought about it for a while and said: "Lend Luoyang 500,000 guan first, and give the remaining 500,000 guan slowly, tell Luoyang not only food, but also the skilled craftsmen of the Luoyang Ministry of Industry can also offset the account, anyway, the Luoyang Ministry of Industry has not started work for a long time, just come to Daxing City!" ”

"His Royal Highness the Acting King is wise!" Fang Xuanling said respectfully.

The ministers present also smiled, as long as they came into contact with the acting king, no one would treat him as an ordinary child, they were automatically treated equally, and his treatment of people, words and deeds all showed extraordinary.

"I hope Luoyang can support it for a few more days this time!" Yang Yu said helplessly.

The ministers also smiled bitterly, and it was not okay if they didn't support Luoyang, but Luoyang was like mud that couldn't support the wall, and it was disappointing every time.

"Now let's talk about Li Yuan!" Yang Yu looked in the direction of Huo Yi.

The ministers were also silent for a while.

"General Li, you have a lot of contact with Li Yuan, I don't know what your opinion is?" Yang Yu looked at Li Jing, who had been silent.

Gu Yi and the others couldn't help but look at Li Jing, Li Jing was forty-six years old, his temples already had gray hair, and he had passed his peak as a general. Before the extermination of Li Xiuning, Li Jing led the most elite troops, although they were all successful, but their military talent was not highlighted.

Even at this moment, the ministers only thought that the reason why Yang Yu looked at Li Jing was just to deal with Li Yuan, and they didn't know how heavy Li Jing's status was in Yang Yu's heart.

Li Jing pondered for a while and said: "When the last general was in Mayi, the reputation of Li Yuan that he heard was benevolence, righteousness and integrity, which shows that this person is good at winning people's hearts, if it is not for a sudden rebellion, I am afraid that no one will see his true face." ”

Everyone nodded, and couldn't help but think of a poem that had been circulating in Daxing City for a long time: "Duke Zhou is afraid of rumors, and Wang Mang is humble and has not usurped the time." ”

The heart is separated from the belly, who can know the heart of others.

Li Jing continued: "Li Yuan has repeatedly resisted the Turks, and he has won victories, and his military methods are so good that the general sighs to himself. ”

"General Li is too modest, in the opinion of this king, Li Yuan is not General Li's opponent at all!" Yang Yu smiled and shook his head.

The ministers were stunned, they didn't expect Yang Yu's expectations for Li Jing to be so high.

"The last general panics!" Li Jing saluted.

"Then in your opinion, how should Daxing City resist Li Yuan?" Yang Yu asked.

Li Jing was silent for a long time and said: "According to the end of the future, there are two strategies for Daxing City to exterminate Li Yuan this time, first, now Daxing City has the advantage of troops, concentrate heavy troops, attack on a large scale, and destroy Li Yuan with the power of thunder." ”

Yang Yu nodded.

"Second, it is to resist the city and defend it, Daxing City has a deep heritage, Taiyuan is barren, and for a long time, Li Yuan will be defeated!" Li Jing offered the second strategy.

The ministers couldn't help but ponder. Both of these are strategies, so to speak, and both go to the two extremes of one attack and one defense, which is indeed a winning strategy.

Yang Yu thought for a long time, and said with a straight face: "Fang Xuanling, immediately give an order to General Qu, let him defend Huoyi with all his might, and wait for the harvest of the Mid-Autumn Festival to be completed and the grain to be put into the warehouse." ”

"Yes!" Fang Xuanling responded.

"Du Ruhui!"

"The lower official is here!" Du Ruhui responded.

"Immediately gather the workers, allocate funds, repair the city of Jiangxian, and build a second line of defense! Ordered Hedong Yao Junsu to repair the city and build a third line of defense," Yang Yu ordered again.

"Lord Bone!"

"The old minister is here!" The bone instrument responded.

"Immediately order the seizure of boats on both sides of the Yellow River to prevent Li Yuan from crossing the river!" Yang Yu paused and said, "Remember which fishermen to compensate!" ”

"Yes!" The bone meter nodded.

Yang Yu issued three orders in a row to defend Li Yuan with all his might.

Yang Yu is still full of vigilance against Li Yuan's father and son, as the true son of heaven in his previous life, Yang Yu does not believe that they will be easily defeated.

After all, Yang Yu traveled to this world, and he didn't believe in ghosts and gods, but he always had a trace of doubt, maybe there was really an invisible force that was influencing the direction of this world, maybe this power was very small, but it was like a butterfly effect, which would set off a storm at a certain time.

"Everyone is waiting for the arrival of winter, then it will be the end of Li Yuan." Yang Yoo's tone was gloomy.

The method he adopted at this moment was the strategy of Russia to drag down Germany in later generations, even if Li Yuan occupied the heavens, the earth and the people, he Yang Yu was not afraid of him.

Li Jing's eyes burst into light, and he looked at Yang Yu incredulously, and the other ministers were also dazzled.

"His Royal Highness the Acting King is wise!" The ministers shouted,

At this moment, the torrential rain outside the window has stopped at some point, the dark clouds have cracked, and the sun is quietly falling.

The rain stopped, and God's anger only lasted for half a month, and he still couldn't stop the cannibalism in the world, so he reluctantly gave up. (To be continued......)

PS: ps: Zizhi Tongjian, Volume 184:

Jiande made an appointment with his soldiers: "When the night comes, it will attack its camp; If it is known, it will be lowered. "Before a mile of place, the sky wants to be bright, and Jiande is confused and disagrees; It will be foggy, and people can't tell each other apart, Jiande said: "God praises me!" Then he broke into his camp and attacked it, and the soldiers of the world were in chaos, and they all left. Shixiong couldn't help it, and dozens of horses left and right fled back to Zhuo County, and he was ashamed of his illness.

This is the case, and it is not that the generals are ignorant and make it up.
