Gangdu Palace, Imperial Garden.

Yang Guang said to Xiao Hou worriedly, "If Luo Siye and Luo Gui refuse to hand over the military power of Dingxiang and Shandong towns, I am afraid that there will be a war." ”

The emperor, who had just killed the four traitors and returned to the court, now found out that the Great Sui was so weak that the world was actually in chaos to this point.

I didn't know anything before, but I lived in a dream. Now that he was sober, no one dared to deceive him anymore, but when the truth of the world was reported to him, he was terrified and panicked again.

In this world, there are already more than a dozen anti-kings who claim to have more than 100,000 people, and even several of them are directly called emperors, and the officials and soldiers of the court and local officials and generals have nothing to do with them.

Not to mention those thieves who are as many as 10,000 people and as few as thousands or hundreds, there are even more and more than a cow's hair, and there are countless of them.

Now it is Li Mi of Henan who seriously threatens the imperial court, defeating Wang Shichong three times and besieging Luoyang.

Hebei's Dou Jiande, Wang Xuba, and Lu Mingyue are almost three points of Hebei, and the official army is no longer excellent. In many counties, the official army can only retreat in some county towns and military offices, while the rebels occupy the counties, counties and townships.

Hedong, Shannan, and Jiangnan are full of rebels and bandits.

The Tuyuhun in the northwest has also been restored, and the Western Turks in the Western Regions are now strong again, and they have repeatedly violated the border.

Xiao Yu asked the emperor to return to Beijing before, which Beijing can he go back to?

Luoyang is now surrounded and beaten by Li Mi, Xingluocang is occupied by Li Mi, and Liyangcang is occupied by Dou Jiande. Now that the mighty army of Shandong has the possibility of rebellion, Luoyang will not be able to go back at all. The canal was blocked by the rebels, and Xingyang and Tiger Prison were still in the hands of the rebels. How did the emperor go back?

What about going to Xijing?

Xijing Daxing is still relatively stable, but Longyou is also making a mutiny and rebellion, and Tuyuhun has been restored, not to mention that the Western Turks are still invading Hexi.

The prospects of Daxing City are not good, not to mention that after the rebellion in all directions, Daxing City will not be able to get food supplies from the Kanto region.

Without food, relying only on the Guanzhong Plain, it is impossible to lend to Xijing at all.

"As long as Your Majesty appoints Zhongxian, the world will definitely return to peace." Empress Xiao comforted the emperor.

Yang Guang sighed.

I thought that if I killed Pei Shiju and others, the court would be clean, and the world would be peaceful, but now I found out that things have not changed at all, and it is still a mess.

Luoyang can't go back, Xijing can't stay, and even this river is afraid that it won't be safe.

In case the Luo family really reverses, then Luo Cheng led his troops south, just afraid that he would be driven by Chang.

"Queen, I want to cross the river to Danyang."

"To Danyang?" The empress couldn't understand why the emperor had such thoughts at this time.

"Jiangdu has no danger to defend, once Luo Cheng refuses to listen to the edict, if he raises troops, I am afraid that it will be difficult to stop for a while. I must be fully prepared, I am ready to cross the river, go to Danyang, restore Jinling, and take Jinling as the Great Sui Nanjing. ”

Jinling has the risk of the Yangtze River, and it can also rely on the Huaihe Ping Domain as a buffer.

Moreover, Jiangnan, especially the counties on the south bank of the river, is still relatively wealthy and a large grain-producing area. In case the situation is out of control, then you can still seek to occupy half of the south of the Yangtze River, protect it first, and then counterattack.

"Your Majesty, has the situation come to this point?"

"This is the worst plan, I reuse Pei Yunyu Shiji Pei Shiju Luo Yi Luo Cheng These people, I thought they had no foundation, they were not Guanlong warlords, nor Shandong scholars, they were expected to be able to master better, but who knows, these people's hearts are even more evil."

In his heart, Yang Guang is still unwilling to compromise.

Tolerate the Luo family, that will only make things worse.

Now the tough cutting of the feudal domain may cause war, but this possibility is also a pair of half and a pair, if Luo Cheng does not dare to oppose, then the court wins, it may bring hope for him to revive the Great Sui.

"Your Majesty, the concubine is just a woman, but I want to remind Your Majesty that this matter must not be rushed, the Luo family is a meritorious person, if Your Majesty does not handle it properly, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles in the future."

The empress reminded the emperor that although it was necessary to cut the domain, he had to pay attention to the means, otherwise if Luo Cheng was allowed to be reasonable, he would be famous for raising troops at that time.

And if the court can handle it well, if Luo Cheng can't find a legitimate reason, he wants to rebel, but I am afraid that the officials, generals, soldiers and people of the military towns and counties under his command will follow him.

"The best way is to replace the four marshals of the Luo family with the army of the four towns."

This is quite a powerful move, you can't treat all four towns as enemies, if you treat them all as enemies, then they are really all enemies.

Even if you want to cut the domain, then just cut the four handsome, take your time, step by step.

Danyang County, Jiangning City.

An army of Xiaoguo escorted an angel to the arrival.

"The emperor's edict, Danyang is too shou Du Fuwei to receive the edict!"

Not long ago, Du Fuwei, who was promoted to the position of Danyang Taishou because of his meritorious service to the thief, wore iron armor and invited the angel to the hall.

After the angel read out the edict, he said to Du Fuwei with a smile, "Congratulations to Du Zhijun, now I want to call you Du Shuai." In the edict just read, the emperor issued an edict to reward Du Fuwei for his meritorious service in quelling the turmoil, and awarded him the title of Jiangnan Province pacification envoy.

Du Fuwei, who was holding the edict in his hand, smiled slightly.

"Du Shuai, now Zuo Cai Xiang Xiang to the south of the Yangtze River, the arrogance is very arrogant, Your Majesty is very dissatisfied with this thief, will want to get rid of it and then quickly, before the Jiangnan pacification made Zhao Yuankai have no experience in the battle array, so this time His Majesty specially transferred him to the court to serve as the Taifu Temple, and Du Shuai took over the handsome, His Majesty has ordered the mobilization of Shannan, Guannei, Jiannan troops and horses to the south of the Yangtze River to assemble, by Du Shuai to command."

Of course, according to the usual practice, Du Fuwei was promoted to the pacification envoy of Jiangnan, so he should naturally cross the river first, go to Jiangdu to meet the emperor Xie En, and then go to the military department to receive the tiger talisman seal letter, and then come back to hand over to Zhao Yuankai, and then go to Jiangnan West to quell the rebellion.

Du Fuwei smiled and responded, and the angel was very happy to see that Du Fuwei agreed so happily.

·······

"Dashuai, there must be fraud in this!"

After sending the angel to the post station to rest, he guarded the mansion too much, and Kan Ling said to Du Fuwei. Long before, Luo Cheng sent Kan Ling, Wang Xiongdan and Ximen Junyi, the three righteous sons, to Du Fuwei to assist him in commanding the army.

These three people have been in battle formations for a long time under the command of Luo Cheng, especially they have learned a lot of military formation tactics, so with their help, Du Fuwei is like a tiger with wings, suppressing bandits and quelling rebellions in the south of the Yangtze River, and winning many battles.

"It's too abnormal to promote me to a pacifier at this time, don't I know there's something wrong here." Duvowe did not believe in such a good thing either.

After all, he was originally only a Danyang Juncheng, and he had just been promoted to Taishou not long ago, and took over the position left by Zhao Yuankai, who was promoted to the pacification envoy of Jiangnan.

How can it be that now and immediately ascend again to appease the envoy, how can there be such an ascension.

"The emperor is using the name of promotion and reward, and then let you go to Jiangdu to see him, and then take the opportunity to take away your official position and military power, don't be fooled." Wang Xiongdan also reminded Du Fuwei.
