Chapter 672: The Truth of History
Yanmen Pass, the main hall of the temporary palace
"I have already said that Yanmen Pass should be in charge of military affairs, and Lin Aiqing will have full authority to deal with it!"
"As for the Turkic withdrawal of troops, Lin Aiqing has to be cautious!"
“……”
The haze that had accumulated for many days in Yang Guang's eyes was swept away, and he pointed out the country with high spirits, Lin Sha became another pig's foot in the main hall, and he didn't have too much tacit understanding with Yang Guang.
As soon as he was a heavy minister, he became a completely marginal role at this time, and there was no room for interjection, so Yang Guang waved his hand to signal the end of the temporary court.
"Your Majesty, the army that the minister has arranged outside the city has found a group of men and horses who have come to the rescue!"
Lin Sha followed Yang Guang into the apse, and after the eunuchs and palace maids left, he said slowly: "The person who led the troops is Li Shimin, the second son of Tang Guogong!" ”
As soon as the smile on Yang Guang's face rose, it was replaced by a cold gloom, only to hear him ask in a low voice: "Li Shimin, the second son of Tang Guogong?" ”
"Exactly!"
Lin Sha looked at his nose, and replied calmly.
"What kind of official position is it, and where did the people he brought come from?"
Yang Guang's eyes were cold, the green tendons on his forehead burst out, he clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and asked.
"Bai Ding one, his subordinates are the soldiers of the Tunwei General Yun Dingxing who took over halfway!"
A cold and piercing cold flickered in the depths of his eyes, and Lin Sha reported calmly on his face.
"Bastard, Yun Dingxing, this waste, was actually held hostage by a mere Bai Ding, what is the use of such a waste left in the court?"
Yang Guang's face was full of violence, and he couldn't hold back the anger in his heart anymore, and scolded him when he took the case: "Such a waste is embarrassing, I must remember it well." He is a courtier of the Great Sui, not a dog of Li Valve! ”
Lin Sha knew it in his heart. It seems that Yang Guang is more sober about his situation than anyone else.
The current Sui Emperor Yang Guang is really in crisis. Not to mention that if one is not good, there is a danger to life, even the Yang family has the possibility of overturning, and the possibility is extremely high.
As a member of the three products, although he has been sitting in Youzhou Biansai, Lin Sha has a clear view and understanding of the situation in the court and the world.
In the court, in private, and in terms of local influence, the dispute between Hu and Han has reached a white-hot stage. It's almost time for the bayonet to see the red and divide the life and death.
During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Xianbei aristocracy almost controlled the power in northern China.
The Xianbei aristocratic group formed by it extremely rejected the Han people, adopted various Hu methods in the north, and implemented a severe suppression policy against the Han people.
Coupled with the massacres from time to time, the number of Han people in the north once plummeted, and it was even less than one-tenth of the number of Hu people, and it was at that time that a blood feud was formed between Xianbei and the Han people.
During the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the Eight Pillar Kingdoms gradually evolved from the Xianbei aristocracy. That is to say, the so-called Guanlong military clique held power in the north, and still excluded the Han people from entering the core of its power, and the relationship with the Han people in the south was almost incompatible.
That is, the real core of power of the northern regime. It has always been the Guanlong military group, as for the so-called five surnames and seven families, except for the Longxi Li family, which belongs to the descendants of Xianbei. The rest are just jokes, and only in peaceful years can they show their profound heritage.
It could also be. Later, several of the seven families with five surnames were not an important reason for the Li royal family in the Tang Dynasty. They are all descendants of the Han Chinese family. The Li royal family, who was born with the Hu people, couldn't pee in a pot at all.
As one of the Eight Pillar Kingdoms, the Yang clan is the only one in the Guanlong military group that has been transformed from the real Han family, and Yang Jian can sit on the throne safely, which is indispensable for the support of the Guanlong military group.
However, after Yang Jian became the emperor, he couldn't wait to change the Xianbei surname 'Puliuru' to the Han surname 'Yang', which violated the bottom line of the Guanlong Military Group.
Originally, the Yang family was the representative of the Guanlong Military Group, but since Yang Jian changed his Han surname, he was regarded as a traitor by the Guanlong Military Group, and his representative identity naturally could not continue to play.
From the historical perspective of the Sui and Tang dynasties, it is likely that Li Valve replaced Yang as the new representative of the Guanlong military group after Yang was expelled from the Guanlong military group as a traitor.
Otherwise, when Yang Jian was the emperor, there would not have been any rumors of 'Muzi Li, sitting in the world', and as a result, the Li family of Longxi, one of the eight pillar states, suffered a ferocious blow from Yang Jian, and finally had to join forces with the Li family in Taiyuan, where Li Yuan was located, and cheapened Li Yuan's family in vain.
Even Lin Sha, who is sitting in Youzhou, a border place, can vaguely see these things, how can Yang Guang, as the emperor, not know these situations?
The failure of the three expeditions to Goguryeo in these years not only seriously depleted the strength of the Guanlong military group, but also greatly reduced the power of the Yang royal family, and it was no longer possible to continue to suppress Li Yuan.
And this time in the siege of Yanmen Pass, the traces of conspiracy are too obvious.
If there were no internal ghosts, how could it be so simple for the Turks to get the specific route of Yang Guang's northern tour?
If there were no internal ghosts, how could a general who was a border officer be 'collectively deaf' and the Turks were not aware of such a big movement?
Even Lin Sha, the general of Pingbei who was sitting in Youzhou, knew through Wei Dao'er, the anti-thief Wei Dao'er, that the Turks would make a big move to mobilize troops and horses, and secretly handed Yang Guang information in this regard.
And the Great Sui Border Army, which has many years of combat experience with the Turks, can't become deaf and blind all of a sudden, and they don't notice the Turks' actions at all, and finally have to marry the Turkic Princess Yicheng to remind them, so they are shocked to realize the abnormality of the Turks, right?
This may also be the specific reason why Yang Guang said 'unsafe' after he got out of Yanmen Pass in real history.
Although it was extrapolated from later history, Yang Guang's strength at that time was old and strong, and it was the best choice to continue to sit in the north. But the problem is that he already feels a real threat to his life, and it is reasonable to think about avoiding the northern region where the Guanlong military group is the most powerful.
It's just a pity that the Yang royal family, who was regarded as a traitor by the Guanlong military group, was regarded as a lackey of the Hu people by the Han people in the south, and did not recognize their Han identity at all, and was even regarded as an enemy of the Han people.
This is also the main reason why after Yang Guang arrived in Jiangdu (Yangzhou), regardless of the situation in the south or the north, the Yang royal family could not get the support of the two clan groups in the north and south, and it was impossible for them to fall without being a complete loner.
Don't look at these speculations a lot, in fact, they are just Lin Sha's thoughts for a moment.
"Your Majesty, I don't know what to do with Yun Dingxing and that Second Prince Li?"
After Yang Guang vented his frustration and his mood stabilized, Lin Sha asked in a deep voice unhurriedly.
Yang Guang's eyes flashed with two cold murderous intent eyes, and he sighed for a moment and finally sighed, and said coldly: "Let's detain it first, since Yun Dingxing wants to be Li Valve's dog so much, I will fulfill him." As for the second son of Li, but Bai Ding is at your disposal! ”
As he spoke, he waved his hand to signal that Lin Sha could leave.
……
Coming out of the temporary palace, Lin Sha's heart was cold.
"Tell the brothers outside to send 3,000 men and horses to guard the Yunding Xing Department, but if they don't accept it, they won't be killed!"
After returning to the temporary barracks, Lin Sha summoned Wang Er, the commander of the personal guards, and ordered in a cold voice: "That Second Prince Li will also be dealt with, and General Ben has no time to pay attention to them at this time!" ”
As Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty said, Li Shimin at this time was just a mere white ding, since he fell into his hands and was caught with such a big handle, who was not his mind to pinch the round and frustrate?
What is the Emperor of the Ages?
What a rule of chastity!
When Li Shimin himself did not completely stand out from Li Valve, it was simply a joke.
As Emperor Sui's confidant, he seized the opportunity to kill him, and Li Yuan didn't dare to do anything to him at this time.
Of course, Li Yuan's sons are not general, Li Jiancheng doesn't look obscure, and the light is almost covered by Li Shimin, but in the process of Li Yuan becoming emperor and conquering the whole world, the logistics and transportation of the Tang Army are almost all handled by him, and he has never made a mistake and the means are very tight.
Li Yuanji is also a hero, even if there is no Li Shimin, to be honest, it will not have much impact on Li Valve.
What Lin Sha was thinking about at the moment was how to take advantage of the embarrassing identity of Li Shimin's second son to secretly make some trouble within Li Valve, and it was best to make the battle between Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin intensify in advance.
When the time comes, there will be discord within Li Valve, and no matter how strong its potential strength is, it will not be able to exert its full strength!
Of course, these are all things to ponder later, and what should be considered now is how to bite off a large piece of meat on the Turkic army.
Lin Sha has never been an arbitrarian character, and although he has his own ideas in mind, he has not forgotten to 'brainstorm' and refer to the opinions and opinions of others.
As a result, the first cadre of the Sui Army in Yanmen Pass, who had just been separated, was hurriedly summoned by Lin Sha to discuss the current situation and countermeasures.
"Are the Turks really going to withdraw their troops?"
"How is it possible, the Turks still have nearly 200,000 troops?"
"They took the initiative to retreat ten miles, is it a move to lure the snake out of the hole?"
“……”
When Lin Sha threw out the issue and pointed out the actions of the Turkic army, it immediately caused an uproar among the participating generals.
"The Turkic withdrawal is certain!"
After the discussion quieted down, Lin Sha solemnly nodded and said: "The losses of the Turks are not small, and they can't bear it with their strength, plus their logistical supply capacity, it is impossible to fight for a month without withdrawing troops!" ”
Naturally, he would not say that in history, the Turks only besieged Yanmen Pass for a month, and finally fled in a panic when Li Shimin arrived. Although the current situation has changed, the time has indeed come when the Turkic army has to take the initiative to withdraw its troops!
"Fight, hit hard, the Turks come and go as they want, so cheap?"
Immediately, a general jumped out, waved his fist and said viciously: "General, you give the order, the last general is willing to be the vanguard of the attack on the Turkic army!" ”
"I am willing to be a pioneer!"
"And so-and-so, we must teach the Turks a lesson!"
“……”
The temporary conference room was boiling instantly, and the participating generals and colonies were ready to teach the Turkic army a profound lesson...... (To be continued.) )
