Chapter 728: Embattled
The next day, as soon as the morning dawned, Bei Minglei received the will of Yangzhou Palace, and Yang Guang wanted to see him, and he seemed to be very anxious.
Bei Minglei washed up casually, and then went to Yangzhou Palace with the eunuch who summoned him.
"This father-in-law is a student, I don't know what position he is!" Bei Ying Lei stuffed a piece of silver to the little eunuch next to him without a trace.
"The general is polite, the minion Xiao Gaozi!" The little eunuch skillfully stuffed the silver into his sleeve, and there was a smile on his face.
"I don't know what His Majesty called me!" Bei Ying Lei asked tentatively.
"I don't know this minion!" Xiao Gaozi turned around and said: "But in the morning, Your Majesty received a military report from Luoyang, and then immediately called the general, as well as the backer king!"
"Oh!" Beiming Lei Qi said: "Luoyang is in trouble?"
Xiao Gaozi replied: "I haven't seen the military newspaper minions, but after Your Majesty read the military newspaper, he was in a very bad mood and had already dropped two cups!"
"Thank you, Grandpa Kogao!" The Northern Thunder already has a number in his heart.
The two walked to Yangzhou Palace, and along the way, the North Thunder was close to Xiao Gaozi, and they were very respectful in their words, so that Xiao Gaozi was like a spring breeze, and the relationship between the two was like an old friend for a quarter of an hour.
When Bei Minglei arrived at the gate of Yangzhou Palace, he found Gonggong Wei standing in front of the door, as if waiting for him.
"Mighty General, you can count it, Your Majesty is almost in a hurry!" Grandpa Wei saw the North Thunder, took three steps and made two steps to directly grab his arm and ran, and quickly went to the upper study, Xiao Gaozi saw that Grandpa Wei was like a mouse seeing a cat, lowered his head, and didn't dare to say a word.
The Northern Thunder followed Grandpa Wei, and when there was no one around, Grandpa Wei whispered to the Northern Thunder:
"The national capital Luoyang has fallen, and His Majesty is losing his temper and convening his ministers to discuss!"
Gonggong Wei seemed to have gotten the news of Zhu Yuyan and knew that the Northern Darkness Thunder was now the actual controller of the Yin Sect, so he took the initiative to remind him.
"Which way to oppose the king to occupy Luoyang?"
"It is Wang Shichong who unites the Dugu Valve and the Yuwen Valve to control Luoyang!"
"There are now 300,000 rebels in Luoyang, and Your Majesty is worried about this!"
Yangzhou Palace is not big, and the two of them came to the new study after a while, and Grandpa Wei didn't say much.
"The mighty general has arrived!" As soon as the guards guarding the study saw the Northern Thunder, they shouted a loud announcement.
Bei Minglei walked into the upper study, and what caught his eye was Yang Guang, who was sitting behind the desk with a very ugly face, and Yang Lin, Yang Su, Li Yuan, Li Yuantong, the secretary of the military department, and an old general who had never seen him.
"Chen Feng Daoqian has seen Your Majesty!" When Bei Minglei saw Yang Guang, he just hugged his fists and saluted, and did not kneel, which was supposed to be a big disrespect, but no one cared.
"Feng Qing is here!" Yang Guang barely squeezed out a smile when he saw Bei Minglei, and then said to Yang Lin, the king of the backer: "Uncle Wang will tell the general about the battle situation!"
After Yang Lin received the order, he informed Bei Yinglei of Luoyang's affairs in detail.
After learning the specific situation, Bei Minglei found that the situation in Luoyang was more serious than he imagined.
A day ago, Wang Shichong, who was guarding Luoyang, received the help of Yuwen Valve and Dugu Valve Yu Sin, and joined forces with 300,000 troops, openly opposing Sui.
What's even more troublesome is that all the royal clansmen in Luoyang have been controlled by Wang Shichong, and even several of Yang Guang's sons have fallen into his hands, and Wang Shichong is still constantly recruiting troops, expanding military strength, and openly pulling up the anti-flag.
Luoyang is the national capital, the Great Sui lost the national capital, and it is not far from the destruction of the country, and what is more troublesome is that after Wang Shichong pulled up the anti-flag, Henan's Wagangzhai also moved.
Because the Northern Thunder abolished Du Fuwei's martial arts, so that he could not suppress his rebels, Wagangzhai took the opportunity to annex, the power expanded dramatically, and the strength has reached a terrifying 500,000, the leader of Wagangzhai Cheng Yanjin personally led the army to Yangzhou, vowing to take Yang Guang's head.
Dou Jiande, who was located in Hebei, was also not honest, and personally led an army of 200,000 to approach Chang'an.
The world of the Great Sui can be described as full of smoke, and the country is in the autumn of crisis.
"You all already know the situation, but there is a way to retreat from the enemy!" Yang Guang asked everyone in a deep voice.
Yang Guang's question ushered in the silence of everyone.
Yang Su was exceptionally silent today, standing there with the old god all the time, and Yang Lin was also helpless at this time.
The only army that Yang Guang can take out now is 80,000 troops in the Jiangnan area, of which 50,000 are Taiyuan soldiers brought by Li Yuan.
Even if Yang Guang breaks through the realm of the Divine Domain, one person can reach 100,000 soldiers, but the rebels in Wagangzhai alone are as many as 500,000, so what can the Great Sui resist.
"Your Majesty, now that the enemy is strong and I am weak, the rebels of Wagangzhai will go south in a few days, and there are few small soldiers in Yangzhou City, it is better to retreat to Jiangdu and make another plot!" In the end, Yang Lin still said a way that was not a solution.
"What about Luoyang?" Yang Guang asked again: "Doesn't the Luoyang Great Sui Imperial Family care!"
All of Yang Guang's sons fell into the hands of Wang Shichong, and if they didn't do well, they would be extinct.
Yang Lin was puzzled: "Yangzhou is too far away from Luoyang, and the threat of Wagangzhai is close at hand, so Lao Chen suggested that Wagangzhai should be solved first, and then go north to Luoyang!"
Everyone knows that with Yangzhou's troops, it is impossible to resist the 500,000 army of Wagangzhai, and Yang Lin's method is actually to give up Luoyang, and then defend the south of the Yangtze River, strive to protect half of the country, and then rule the river with the northern heroes.
"If the army is not enough, expand the army, Jiangnan is a rich land, can't you recruit 200,000 troops?" Yang Guang asked coldly.
Li Yuantong, the secretary of the Ministry of War, stepped forward and replied: "Tell Your Majesty that the treasury is empty now, and it is really impossible to expand the military strength!"
Since the failure of the three expeditions to Goryeo, the treasury of the Great Sui has been exhausted, and even Li Yuantong, who is in charge of military affairs, knows about it.
Yang Guang was silent, no one knew better than him how much money his treasury had.
"Is there really no hope for the Great Sui?" Yang Guang was a little decadent, and the embattled situation made him exhausted.
"Prime Minister, you have always done the most, why don't you say a word today!" Yang Guang stared at Yang Su and asked.
Since he was named by Yang Guang, Yang Su naturally couldn't be dumb anymore: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister has been thinking about a strategy to retreat from the enemy just now!"
"Oh!" Yang Guang lifted his spirit and said: "The prime minister has thought of a way!"
Yang Su said confidently: "Now my biggest enemy in the Great Sui is Wagangzhai led by Cheng Yanjin, Dou Jiande in Hebei, and Wang Shichong in Luoyang, as long as these three rebels are resolved, the crisis will be solved!"
"And to solve the three major rebels, you can only slowly try to break them one by one!"
Yang Guang said excitedly: "How to break it!"
Yang Su cleared his throat, and then said: "Among the three major rebels, Dou Jiande is the weakest, and it is best to solve it!"
"How to fix it!" Yang Lin was also interested in Yang Su's words.
"As long as the Turks are allowed to enter the customs, Your Majesty will not spend a single soldier, and the crisis in Chang'an will be solved immediately!"
Yang Su's words made the entire study fryer, and Yang Lin jumped up angrily.
"Old man Yang Su, do you want to make China extinct?"
