Chapter 297: Knowing Yourself and Knowing Your Opponent Wins All Battles

Yang Guang thought for a moment, but he didn't rush to make a statement.

just said: "Everyone Aiqing is drunk, it's not suitable to discuss this matter today, let's go back first, and discuss it at the next court meeting." ”

"Your Majesty, no!" This time, it became Xu Maogong who spoke.

"Li Shimin, this person, the minister has been in contact with, he is a ruthless character, and he never likes to drag mud and water, after the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, maybe he is now discussing with Tang Chen about attacking Jiangdu."

"I said it, go back and discuss it, don't you understand?" Yang Guang's tone was a little indifferent.

Xu Maogong was stunned for a moment and didn't dare to say anything more.

As for the other courtiers, seeing that Yang Guang had made up his mind, they had to obey his wishes and retreat one after another, but it could be seen from their expressions that everyone's mood was extremely heavy, and they had obviously begun to worry about the future of the Great Sui.

On the other hand, Yang Guang walked back to the harem with Empress Xiao as if he was nothing.

It's just that after sending away the subordinates around him, the relaxation on Yang Guang's face disappeared in an instant, and his gaze became more solemn than ever.

"Your Majesty, you still care about Li Shimin's founding of the country, right?" Empress Xiao has always been very understanding, and when she saw Yang Guang like this, she understood a lot.

"How can I not care? Li Shimin's methods, I am also extremely jealous. "There are no outsiders around, and Yang Guang will no longer pretend.

Rubbing his eyebrows, he said depressedly: "Actually, I won't tell you, I already knew that this Li Shimin would come to this point sooner or later, but I didn't expect that it would come so soon, the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the rise of Li Shimin, and next, the Tang Dynasty may usher in a blowout development......

The matter has come to this point, and Yang Guang's head is as big as numb.

The only thing to be thankful for is that he preempted Li Shimin and brought Wagangzhai over, otherwise, Li Shimin, who won Wagangzhai, would be even more invincible, and the Great Sui under his control would never be his opponent.

But having said that, now the Great Sui and the Tang Dynasty are still not comparable.

This is a huge gap in national strength.

If you really can't restrain Li Shimin's next move and let Li Shimin attack Jiangdu, then under the iron hooves of the Tang Dynasty, how can there be eggs? All he can do now is to pray that Li Shimin will not act rashly for the time being, and then give Da Sui more time to develop.

"So, Jiangdu is about to usher in war?" Empress Xiao asked with a little worry.

Yang Guang shook his head: "That's not it, Datang, after all, the country has just been founded, and now the country is unstable, what he wants to do is not to create a war, but to quell the civil strife first." ”

In particular, Li Shimin's murder of his father and brother will definitely be criticized by the world's scholars, which is a very favorable situation for us, and if we can use this "momentum", it will also be of some help to the Great Sui. ”

This is not Yang Guang's nonsense.

The ancients hated disloyalty, filial piety and unrighteous people the most, this Li Shimin, it can be said that all three things are accounted for, in orthodox history, because he is the supreme emperor, so no one dares to evaluate this time face to face, but the current situation is different, the world is not only him Li Shimin alone.

Therefore, his matter will inevitably continue to ferment, and it will become a hot topic among the people for a long time. And Li Shimin will become a heinous and unforgivable sinner.

"This Li Shimin, since he wants to be the emperor, he will definitely attach great importance to his reputation, if he has no choice, then he will not easily make such an extreme act. It seems that his life in Chang'an is indeed not easy......" Yang Guang muttered secretly.

"Your Majesty, the concubine looks at your thoughts and thoughts, how can you know Li Shimin better than anyone else? Have you been in contact with him before? Empress Xiao asked suspiciously.

Yang Guang shook his head: "I have not had direct contact with him, but you are right, I really know Li Shimin very well, and I know very well what he wants to do." ”

"That's just right, it's the so-called knowing oneself and knowing the other is invincible." Empress Xiao was suddenly relieved.

But the solemnity in Yang Guang's eyes did not decrease: "No, what you said is not right, since the founding of the country, this matter has been beyond my control, and now, I don't know his Li Shimin's next plan." ”

"Is that so...... the light smile on Empress Xiao's lips froze for a moment, and she sat on the stool, falling into silence.

"However, this does not mean that our Great Sui will definitely lose, after all, in terms of strategy, I feel that I am not inferior to him, and even stronger than him in some aspects, if Li Shimin really dares to deal with the Great Sui, I will never let him have a good time." Yang Guang snorted coldly and said coldly.

"Could it be that Your Majesty already has a calculation in his heart?" When Empress Xiao heard this, there was a lot of hope in her heart.

"If I hadn't calculated, why would I have come to this point step by step?" Yang Guang grinned, full of confidence.

Li Shimin was the overlord of the Sui and Tang dynasties, however, was he Yang Guang a vegetarian?

His identity as a traverser is unparalleled, even if he can't be compared with Datang in terms of national strength, but don't forget that in this era of cold weapons, it is quite a simple thing for ants to shake trees.

Say, for example, thermal weapons.

A pistol swept across the world.

This is definitely not a fool's errand.

Rather, it exists objectively.

If he is given a sniper rifle, then even masters like Sun Minxue and Lin Yan'er can kill accurately from a distance of hundreds of steps.

All these are Yang Guang's greatest reliance.

Although it is not difficult to make these things out in the Great Sui, as long as all the craftsmen of the Great Sui are gathered together, it is not necessarily impossible.

After all, the hands-on ability of the ancients is quite terrifying, and in some fields, it is not weaker than modern technology at all.

If nothing else, at least the gunpowder can be easily made, and that thing is not very complicated in the first place.

In the next few days, the whole Jiangdu was discussing the founding of Li Shimin, just as the so-called mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings, the sky in Jiangdu seems to have become much gloomy because of this, and the people's hearts are even more panicked.

In this case, Yang Guang did not hesitate to issue the second month's borrowing fee.

even added an extra 10%, using the offensive of sugar-coated cannonballs to drive the people to trust the Great Sui more and have more confidence in the Great Sui.

And in doing so, although Yang Guang's goal was barely achieved, the pressure on the treasury was not ordinarily large, and overnight, the silver in the treasury was reduced by almost one-third, making the household department Shangshu almost come to Yang Guang again to cry poor.
