Chapter 131: Change of Dynasty Tang Dynasty

After coming to the Tiance Army station, Chu Mofeng instructed his guards to summon Zhao Xin, Qian Ming, Sun Xian and Li Jian to the camp tent, while he sat in the big tent, not knowing what he was thinking.

As soon as the curtain was lifted, a light came in, and I saw Zhao Xin and others rushing in one by one, and came to Chu Mofeng with both fists and said in unison: "The last general Zhao Xin (Qian Ming, Sun Xian, Li Jian) saw General Chu, I don't know why the general summoned the last general?"

Chu Mofeng nodded, motioned for the four of them to sit down, and then took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Zhao Xin and said, "Zhao Xin, the four of you should circulate it to each other, and after reading it, let's discuss it together." ”

Zhao Xin took the piece of paper and slowly unfolded it and browsed it carefully, then handed it to Qian Ming and the others in turn, and after the four of them had all browsed it, Chu Mofeng raised his head and said slowly: "Since you have read it all, can you tell us what you think?"

After the four of them looked at each other when they saw this, they saw Zhao Xin stand up and give a military salute to Chu Mofeng and said, "General Qiqi Chu, my subordinates think that if you carry out reorganization and training according to the content of your plan, Tiance's current combat power will indeed be greatly improved. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Xin glanced at Chu Mofeng cautiously, and after being caught by Chu Mofeng, he said: "Zhao Xin, if you have anything to say, just tell the truth, do you think I look like the kind of person who is arbitrary and self-serving?"

Zhao Xin shook his head and said, "My subordinates don't dare, in fact, one of the biggest problems in General Chu's plan is that it needs a lot of money to support the implementation of this plan." ”

As soon as Zhao Xin's words fell, Sun Xian stood up and said: "General Chu, you must know that the arrows consumed by our archers for daily training are not a small amount, if you want to cultivate a good archer, it is not an exaggeration to say that the arrows consumed are tens of thousands, and there is such a thing as a crossbow, and the arrows of a short crossbow are more expensive than a longbow." ”

"General Chu, the main thing is the horse, the rest can be obtained from the armory or the blacksmith shop, no matter how bad it is, you can buy it on the market, but the problem is that this horse with heavy endurance and good endurance is not easy to find. Qian Ming, who was on the side, hurriedly stood up and said the worries in his heart.

"There is another problem, the distribution of Mingguang armor has always been controlled by General Li, and there is also armor for war horses, which is also a lot of expenses. Li Jian didn't stand up, just sat in his seat and frowned and touched his chin.

Seeing that the leaders of the four battalions under his command had expressed their thoughts, Chu Mofeng smiled slightly and said, "What I want to say now is, what if I solve all the problems you just said?

As soon as the four of them heard Chu Mofeng's question, they hurriedly said excitedly: "If these problems can be solved, then after this reorganization and training, our Tiance will not only be able to improve its combat power, but also be the only one among the many large camps." ”

"Okay, since you have confidence, then from now on, Tiance will start to recruit soldiers from abroad, the main recruitment targets are people from the rivers and lakes, in addition to the existing two hundred and twelve people, we only need to recruit another one hundred and eighty-eight people, once the number of personnel is full, the recruitment work will be stopped immediately. Chu Mofeng nodded, and said to the four generals under him: "After the personnel are full, the training will be carried out according to the content of the plan, and as for the weapons and ordnance, I will solve them, you just need to train carefully." ”

When the boss of his own family spoke, Zhao Xin and the four of them stood up and gave a military salute to Chu Mofeng and said, "The last general will obey the general's orders. ”

And Chu Mofeng waved his hand to signal the four of them to sit down, and then said slowly: "There are two other things you need to know, first, I am going to make a military flag that belongs to Tiance, and we don't need to use the Sui Dynasty military flag that is still in use;

The four of them have been able to stay in the army for so many years, and they are all human spirits, and after Chu Mofeng's words were finished, the four of them could probably guess something in their hearts, and they all nodded and said: "General, please rest assured, your subordinates and others will definitely restrain your subordinates and not cause you trouble." ”

Hearing the assurances of Zhao Xin and the others, Chu Mofeng nodded and stood up and said, "Today's matter has been discussed for the time being, you should each start training with the personnel under your command, and if there is anything, go to Yining Fang to find me." After speaking, he turned around and left the big tent of the Tiance Army.

At this moment, in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Li Yuan also received the news about Yang Guang's murder, and immediately summoned Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, and Li Xiuning to discuss the matter.

The three of them came to Li Yuan's study, only to see Li Yuan sitting in his seat with a dark face and not saying a word, Li Jiancheng, who couldn't help himself, took the lead in asking: "I don't know what the father called the children to come?"

Li Yuan raised his eyes and glanced at Li Jiancheng and thought, this kid is not as stable as Erlang after all, and even inferior to Chu kid in some aspects, if it weren't for the fact that he was the eldest son, Lao Tzu wouldn't bother to care about him.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan handed a piece of letterhead in his hand to the three of them and said, "After reading it, let's talk about my opinion." ”

Li Jiancheng took the letterhead and slowly unfolded it, Li Shimin and Li Xiuning came up to watch, only to see that there was no imaginary tirade on the letterhead, just a simple sentence: Yang Guang was killed, and the Sui Dynasty was about to die!

Seeing the shocking eight big characters on the letterhead, Li Jiancheng stood stunned and didn't say a word, while Li Shimin gasped and said, "Father, is the news reliable?"

"Both Jiangdu and Luoyang have the eyeliner I planted, and both sides passed the news to me on the same day, and after receiving the news, I sent someone to inquire about the past merchants in the city, but there are many big moves in the direction of Jiangdu this month, so ......" Li Yuan nodded slowly and said some of the news he had received recently.

Listening to Li Yuan's words, Li Shimin thought for a moment and said: "Father, why didn't Chu kid come to today's incident, in terms of situation analysis and strategic response, the child has to admit that this kid is indeed unique. ”

"I sent someone to his house early in the morning, and Feng'er said that he went to the camp early in the morning. Li Yuan sighed and thought to himself, of his three sons, the eldest is brave and strategic, but lacks bearing; the second is born a seedling of leadership, but sometimes it is easy to lose his mind when encountering some tricky things; as for the fourth, forget it or not mention him.

"It's okay, the boy will send someone to take a look again, and I guess he should go home in the morning." Li Shimin nodded, and was about to summon someone to find Chu Mofeng, but the voice of the housekeeper Li Fu sounded outside the door: "Master, the little aunt has arrived, saying that there is something to meet the master. ”

When Li Yuan heard this, he hurriedly shouted: "Our uncle is here, do you have to report to me first? Hurry up and let him in." Li Fu, who was outside the door, heard the words, and then only heard a 'squeak', the door of the study was pushed open, and Chu Mofeng walked in.

As soon as he saw Chu Mofeng coming, Li Yuan hurriedly said to Li Jiancheng: "Jiancheng, take the letterhead just now to Mofeng and take a look." ”

Hearing this, Li Jiancheng hurriedly handed the letterhead in his hand to Chu Mofeng, although he had already known the content of the letterhead, Chu Mofeng still pretended not to know, slowly unfolded the letterhead and glanced at it, and then slowly closed the letterhead and handed it to Li Jiancheng.

Seeing that Chu Mofeng was in a state of calm and unfazed, Li Yuan nodded secretly in his heart and said, "What does the virtuous son-in-law think we should do at this time?"

"Father-in-law, my son-in-law thinks that we don't have to do anything at this time, just tell Your Majesty the news, and take a look at Your Majesty's meaning first. Chu Mofeng looked at Li Yuan and said, "At that time, if you spread this news, there will always be some people who are ready to jump out, and then you just need to take advantage of the situation." ”

After listening to Chu Mofeng's words, everyone present couldn't help but sigh in their hearts: It is good to take advantage of the situation, inform Emperor Yang Yu of Sui Gong, turn the passive into the active, and then take advantage of the situation to let Yang Yu automatically give up the throne, this kid is really not simple.

Li Yuan laughed when he heard this, then stroked his beard and said, "No wonder Erlang said that this kind of thing should be analyzed and analyzed, and it really deserves to be my good son-in-law." After speaking, he turned his head to Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin, and said, "You two should learn from Chu Xiaozi, I really don't know where you two have read the military book strategy for so many years?"

The two of them nodded yes when they heard this, and Li Xiuning on the side didn't say a word from beginning to end, but there were huge waves in his heart: This kid is really a demon, and his age looks like he is less than ten years old, but Fang Cai's words seem to be said by a person who has been in officialdom for many years, and I really don't know where my father found this kid.

When I was thinking about it, I only heard Li Yuan say: "Then tomorrow I will enter the palace to explain this matter to Your Majesty, and everything will be decided by Your Majesty." After speaking, he smiled at Chu Mofeng and said, "Don't leave later, just go back to the house after eating at home, and I will send someone to tell Feng'er and them in the house." ”

"Yes, I just sent someone back to the house to bring you two boxes of Zhangye drunk, which I just sent over there some time ago, and I have been busy reorganizing Tiance Residence, and I didn't have time to send it to you. Chu Mofeng smiled and said something about the reorganization without a trace.

Li Yuan led Chu Mofeng out of the study and walked towards the dining room, and asked suspiciously as he walked: "Reorganization, quickly tell me what you think, and help you with your staff by the way." While talking, the two foxes talked and laughed, and walked farther and farther.

And Li Jiancheng, who was behind him, looked at Chu Mofeng's back with disdain and said, "This little aunt of our family, but it's about to catch up with these sons." ”

Li Shimin and Li Xiuning, who were on the side, did not pay attention to Li Jiancheng, but walked straight out of the study and walked in the direction of the dining room.

On the second day, Li Yuan entered the palace early to meet Emperor Gong of Sui, and played the news of Yang Guang's murder to Yang Yu, and when he heard that Yang Guang was killed, Yang Yu sat on the dragon chair for a long time without reacting, until Wang De on the side reminded him that Yang Yu hurriedly came back to his senses.

At this moment, Li Yuan stood at the bottom of the steps and looked at Yang Yu and said loudly: "Your Majesty, since the first emperor was killed, then you are orthodox as the eldest grandson of the emperor, and the ministers swear to support Your Majesty's crusade against the rebel Yu culture. ”

As soon as Li Yuan's words fell, everyone present came out one after another to chant with Li Yuan, at this moment Yang Yu sat on the dragon chair, looking at the ministers below who were determined to shout slogans, thinking that these people came out to echo because of the prime minister, in fact, I didn't know that the concept of the Sui Dynasty had already begun to become more and more blurred in people's hearts.

Thinking of this, Yang Yu stretched out his hand and motioned for everyone to shut down, stood up and said in a deep voice: "The Emperor Taishang Dragon controls Bintian, I am deeply saddened in my heart, but the matter of going out is very important, and everything is handled by the Prime Minister with full authority. After speaking, he turned around and left the main hall of Taiji Palace and walked towards the apse.

Everyone present listened to Yang Yu's words, and turned their eyes to Li Yuan, Li Yuan arched his hand at everyone and said: "Everyone, this matter will be discussed with you when the official goes back to plan it, and before that, please do your own duties and don't mess up." After saying that, he turned around and left the main hall, and walked towards Jinchengfang in a carriage.

After returning to the mansion, Li Yuan sent someone to summon Chu Mofeng, and the two people, an old man and a young man, closed the door and stayed in the study until the beginning of Shen before he walked out.

On the second day, the news of Yang Guang's murder spread throughout Daxing City, many people who had suffered from war, famine, and forced labor, heard the news and applauded and celebrated, but everyone forgot that they were still under the rule of the Sui Dynasty at this time, and these people who delivered news and celebrated were arrested by Jingzhao Yin and sent to the prison of the Criminal Department.

With more and more people being arrested, the voices of the people in Daxing City are getting higher and higher, Jing Zhaoyin has sent people to come forward several times to suppress the bullet has been fruitless, I don't know where the news came from, saying that His Majesty ordered the prime minister to send troops to Jiangdu, wanting to avenge Yang Guang, for a time rumors spread in the army, and many soldiers have found their chief officers to ask.

At this moment, Chu Mofeng, who was sitting in the Tiance camp, listened to the news from his subordinates, and smiled disdainfully, as the situation became more and more intense, gradually some ministers in the court and the central government also became resistant, and even wrote a letter to suggest Yang Yu's Zen position.

Yang Yu, who got the news, did not show such anger as Wang De, but stared blankly at those twists and turns without saying a word.

On May 14 of the second year of Yining, this day carved a deep imprint in the history of the future, and many people call this day the founding day of the Tang Dynasty.

In the early morning of May 14, Li Yuan and others came to the Taiji Palace early in full armament, waiting for Yang Yu to go to court, today Li Yuan is going to do a big thing that he has been thinking about for a long time, but when it comes to the day of implementation, Li Yuan can't help but feel a little nervous.

With Wang De's 'Your Majesty has arrived', Yang Yu slowly walked to the dragon chair, sat down slowly with a dragon robe, and heard Wang De shout again, "If there is something to do, there is nothing to do and retreat."

Hearing this, Li Yuan turned his head and signaled to a minister, only to see that after receiving Li Yuan's signal, this person walked out of the queue and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to do." ”

"Gao Aiqing, please speak. Yang Yu stretched out his hand and motioned for Gao Quan to speak.

I saw Gao Quan wipe the sweat on his forehead and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers heard that the people today have a lot of grievances, all because of the Taishang Emperor Long's control of Bintian, for this reason Jing Zhaoyin has detained the people involved in the prison of the Criminal Department, but there are too many people, please ask Your Majesty to indicate how to deal with it?"

"Oh, there are too many people, why is that?" Yang Yu asked inexplicably.

"Your Majesty, most of those who celebrated were ordinary people who had experienced famine, forced labor, and war, and when they heard that the Emperor Taishang had died, their hearts were filled with joy. ”

"Gao Quan, you are bold, how dare you talk nonsense in front of Your Majesty?" As soon as Gao Quan's voice fell, I saw a minister in his fifties stand up and point at Gao Quan's nose and shout.

Seeing that it was Lord Zhang from the Ministry of Rites, Gao Quan sneered and said: "Who should I be, it turned out to be Lord Zhang, Lord Zhang was surprised by this, and he just told His Majesty the truth what he heard, why did he talk nonsense?"

Even so, you can't use words indiscriminately, it's disrespectful. After Lord Zhang reprimanded Gao Quan, he arched his hand to Yang Yu and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister implores Your Majesty to cure this person for the crime of great disrespect." ”

Yang Yu was about to speak, when he saw a person dressed as a military general walking out of the audience, and said to Master Zhang with a sneer: "Lord Zhang, can't you hear the screams of your Yulin souls under the Great Wall? In the past, because of the construction of the Great Wall, how many people died on the edge of the Great Wall because of unbearable labor, what did you Lord Zhang say at that time? Yang Guang was a tyrant, but now? Yang Guang is dead, and you are grieving. ”

Master Zhang pointed at this person and said, "How do you know these words?"

I saw this person sneering and said: "It seems that you really said, in this case, why do you want to be that two-faced person now, go down to accompany your Emperor Yang, and be your loyal minister." After speaking, this person took out the sword on his waist and stabbed it into Lord Zhang's chest.

When everyone in the court was still confused, Lord Zhang had been stabbed to death, and at this time there was chaos in the hall, only to see Wang De shouting: "Come on, kill the murderer on the spot." ”

After shouting three times in a row and no one came in, Wang De seemed to understand something at this time, looked at Li Yuan and said, "Prime Minister, aren't you going to give Your Majesty an explanation for today's matter?"

I saw Li Yuan sneering and walked out and said to Yang Yu: "Your Majesty, you ask the prince not to waste that effort, all the forbidden troops in the palace have already received the order of my son-in-law and will not be dispatched." As for the soldiers of the large battalion in the city, you don't count on it. ”

"Li Yuan, you are really ......" Yang Yu listened to Li Yuan's words, stretched out his hand and pointed at Li Yuan, speechless for a long time, and only said angrily after a while: "Say, what do you want?"

I saw Li Yuan take a few steps forward and said coldly: "Your Majesty, the old minister has nothing else to ask for today, and I beg Your Majesty to abdicate and make way for Xian." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the court was taken aback, and Li Yuan said disdainfully when he saw this: "You don't have to be surprised, this court has already rotted to the roots. Then he turned to a minister and said, "Household Department, report to our Majesty the current population." Let your majesty also hear what good things Yang Guang has done. ”

I saw this household official arching his hand to Yang Yu and said: "Your Majesty, as of the beginning of this year, there are only more than 2 million households left in the Great Sui Dynasty, and at the beginning of the establishment of the Sui Dynasty, there were more than 6.9 million households in total. ”

As soon as this remark came out, everyone present was shocked, and the ordinary people just performed their duties, and did not pay too much attention to the problem of the sharp decline in population, and at this time, when they heard the statistics of the household department, they all guessed where the sharp decline in the population had gone.

Seeing this, Li Yuan arched his hand at the official, and then said coldly: "Don't guess, the continuous conquest and conscription are all caused by Yang Guang. Seeing that everyone was still skeptical, Li Yuan used one fact after another to break down the last line of defense in everyone's hearts.

After Li Yuan finished speaking, the eyes of the ministers looking at Yang Yu were not as hot as before, and they even cast indifferent gazes.

I only heard Li Yuan say: "Your Majesty, the old minister asked you to abdicate and make way for Xian, also to save your life, do you think that Wang Shichong, Yu Wenhua and others are sincere in supporting Yang Dong and Yang Hao? This is just an excuse." After the two of them grasp the real power, I am afraid that the lives of the two highnesses will not be guaranteed. Therefore, the old minister implores His Majesty to abdicate!"

Seeing this, Wang De was about to open his mouth to scold Li Yuan, but Yang Yu stretched out his hand to stop Wang De, stood up and looked at Li Yuan coldly and said, "Rong Zhen will think about this matter and then reply." ”

Seeing this, Li Yuan said to Yang Yu: "Your Majesty, the old minister only gives you time for a stick of incense, and after a stick of incense, ......" Before Li Yuan's words were finished, Yang Yu had already turned around and left the Taiji Palace.

The time for a stick of incense passed quickly, and Li Yuan saw that Yang Yu had not come out for a long time, and was about to enter the apse, but Wang De walked out with an edict in his hand and shouted to everyone: "Your Majesty agrees to abdicate and let Li Yuan, the prime minister, be virtuous." ”

Taking the edict in Wang De's hand, Li Yuan slowly walked to the dragon chair step by step, took a deep breath and sat down slowly, and said loudly: "From now on, change Sui to Tang, the year name Wude, Daxing City is renamed Chang'an, canonize Li Jiancheng as the crown prince, Li Shimin as the king of Qin, Li Yuanji as the king of Qi, and the rest of the people have been rewarded. ”

When everyone heard this, they knelt down and said loudly: "I respectfully obey Your Majesty's will, long live my emperor, long live, long live." ”

At this time, Chu Mofeng, who was sitting in the big camp, learned the news in the palace, took out a jar of wine from the big camp room, first poured three large bowls, slowly poured them on the ground facing the east, and then poured three full bowls and drank them in turn, after doing all this, Chu Mofeng arranged the affairs in the big camp and rode towards his mansion.

The Sui Dynasty fell and the Tang Dynasty was established, and the first thing Li Yuan did after ascending to the throne was to order Pei Lian, Liu Wenjing and others to revise the law.

At this time, in General Pingxi's Mansion in Yiningfang, Chu Mofeng was angrily polishing the darts in his hand, and Li Shimin on the side couldn't help but dissuade him: "I said General Chu, I know that you are not angry about the April incident, but no one expected that kid to run so fast at that time, you can rest assured that the Japanese king will arrest this person for you one day." ”

"His Royal Highness King Qin is so angry, if it weren't for your people dragging his feet this time, Lao Tzu would have caught him a long time ago, if it weren't for Shuang'er leading people to make trouble for Xue Rengao in Longyou, I would have taken someone to Luoyang to kill him, this bastard, don't let me meet him again." Chu Mofeng glanced at Li Shimin angrily, and his thoughts instantly flew to the April before Li Yuan became emperor......

There is a way that once the son of heaven and a courtier, the Tang Dynasty was established, everything was in a state of ruin, and watching the Li Tang Dynasty revise the law, the situation in the world is unpredictable, which led to Li Mi's defeat of the Sui Dynasty and, the high attack on the people of the world and the defeat, I want to know what will happen next, and listen to the next decomposition......
