At the beginning of June of the ninth year of the Great Sui Dynasty, the Eastern Expeditionary Army successfully reached Pyongyang, the capital of Goguryeo. The armies of U Wenshu and Yang Yichen converged with the sailors of Laihu'er and successfully formed an encirclement of Pyongyang. Gao Yuan, the king of Goguryeo, sent people out of the city to meet Yuwenshu and expressed his willingness to submit to the feet of the Great Sui Emperor and be a courtier for eternity.

Yang Guang learned the lesson of the last expeditionary force annihilation, and this time he did not arrange for a civilian official to supervise the army. When he was about to set out for the expedition, he told Woo Moon that this expedition must conquer Pyongyang. If Gao Yuan surrenders, he will not accept it! Therefore, Gao Yuan's request for surrender was rejected by Yuwenshu.

The second conquest of Liaodong went well, and Goguryeo had been beaten and had no power to fight back. Because of the experience of the first withdrawal of the army, Yu Wenshu, who had suffered a loss, ordered to attack the Goguryeo fortresses along the way one by one, except for a few well-defended cities, which basically did not pose a threat to the retreat of the army. The last time he retreated, because the advance was too fast, there were too many Goguryeo cities and fortresses left along the way, so Yuwenshu was almost blocked and couldn't go back halfway. If it weren't for his second son, Yu Wenshi, and 20,000 elite horsemen to respond, he would have hated Liaodong.

As the saying goes, if you eat a trench, you will grow wise, Yang Guang did not send civilian officials to intervene in the military and military affairs, and Yuwen Shu also took care of the back road very safely, it seems that nothing can stop the Liao army from destroying Goguryeo.

But just when the army of Yuwen Shu and Lai Hu'er blocked the siege of Pyongyang, the emperor's closest chamberlain, Long Tingwei, Wen Yao, suddenly arrived in the Great Sui army outside Pyongyang.

The text is here to preach the decree, the secret decree.

This time, Wen Jialai didn't bring his Long Tingwei, and there were only two people around him, Qing Kite and Huang Luan. However, it was the two thousand elite armored light cavalry of the left army in the six armies of the Son of Heaven who protected him all the way. From Wen Yao's pale haggard face and the dust of his body, Yu Wenshu guessed that something big had happened again. It's just that he didn't expect things to be so big. Big enough to shake the foundation of the Great Sui, big enough to make people feel incredible.

The green kite with the big black umbrella on his back and the Huang Luan with the big iron gun on his back stood outside the big tent of Yuwenshu, the two of them were about the same height, and they were both delicate girls with delicate faces and petite bodies, and the contrast with the weapons they carried on their backs was too great, so the soldiers in the past frequently looked sideways. But the two of them just stood outside, as if those eyes had nothing to do with them.

In the military tent, after listening to Wen Jiao read out the secret decree, Yu Wenshu, Yang Yichen, and Lai Hu'er all looked extremely ugly, and the three of them looked at each other, and everyone's faces were full of incredulity.

"It's ...... When was this? ”

"The third day of June."

Wen Yao took a sip of tea and felt the discomfort in his throat soothe a little.

"Because the thieves blocked the land and water routes, the twists and turns in various places were blocked and could not be sent to Liaodong. It wasn't until June 28 that the people sent by Luo Yi from Youzhou arrived in Liaodong City to meet His Majesty, and they didn't know that such a big thing had happened. On the evening of June 28, His Majesty had ordered the army to withdraw to Liaoxi. I came all the way from Liaodong to the starry night, although I did not delay for a while, but it is estimated that at this time the army outside Liaodong City has withdrawn to the west of Liaoshui. ”

Wen said: "Your Majesty's will, Marshal Yuwen does not have to go back to report on his work, and after leading the army back, he will directly go to exterminate Yang Xuangan's anti-thieves, Your Majesty has issued an order, and all the armies will be controlled by Marshal Yuwen." ”

He glanced at Yuwen Shu and said, "Your Majesty has a lot of trust in Marshal Yuwen, and I hope that Marshal will make plans early." ”

Yu Wenshu nodded and said, "The minister will definitely live up to His Majesty's trust!" ”

Wen Yao nodded and said: "Yang Yichen, Your Majesty's will, add six counties to recruit envoys, and exterminate the northern Wang Bo, Gao Shida and other anti-thieves." ”

Yang Yichen bowed down and said, "Minister, lead the order!" ”

"Your Majesty's will, General Laihu'er can lead the sailors to return directly and defend the capital."

Lai Hu'er bowed and said, "The minister obeys the order!" ”

Wen Yao drank all the tea in the cup, sighed and said, "The three generals please return to the army as soon as possible, and I will rush back to reply to the order." I won't stay long, I wish the three generals a victory, and then build an immortal achievement. ”

Wen Yao got up, although Yu Wenshu and the others persuaded him to return with the army, Wen Yao just refused. Yuwen Shu and others knew that Wen Yidao was His Majesty's most trusted servant, so even a high-ranking and powerful general like Yuwen Shulai Hu'er was not easy to slacken, seeing that Wen Yi insisted on leaving, Yuwen Shu said: "The army has captured a lot all the way south, and there are a few cars of rare treasures that the captain is also asked to bring back and dedicate to His Majesty." The army is about to start, and the march is in a hurry, and I am afraid that I will lose. ”

Yang Yichen glanced at Yu Wenshu and said in his heart, you old fox!

He naturally understood what Yu Wenshu meant, and what did he say for fear of losing those gold and silver treasures, and he didn't want to give gifts to Wen Yao? Hundreds of thousands of troops can't take care of those carts of treasures, but Wen Yao's 2,000 light horsemen can take care of them? Yu Wenshu just wants to buy a favor, and the treasure is in the hands of Wen Yao, how much can the emperor know about how much he takes himself?

"Forget it."

Yang Yichen didn't expect Wen Yao to refuse Yu Wenshu's overtures!

Wen Jiaruo glanced at Yuwen Shu meaningfully, and then said indifferently: "Marshal Yuwen has this heart, so it is better to dedicate it directly to His Majesty." ”

He bowed slightly: "Leave here." ”

The three of them sent Wen Yao all the way out of the camp, and Lai Hu'er looked at Wen Yao's back and said with a smile: "Obviously a mule, he likes to carry such two beautiful little mares by his side, isn't he afraid of others gossiping?" ”

Yu Wenshu coughed a few times and said: "Let's go back and rectify your sailor quickly, if you let the thieves fight all the way to the Eastern Capital, you and I will be guilty of a big crime!" ”

Lai Hu'er sighed and said, "I envy General Yang, I don't have to go south to stay in Hebei." ”

Yang Yichen was noncommittal, just smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Yang Yichen's surname is Wei Chi, his father Wei Chi Chong, for the Northern Zhou Yi with the general town guarding Heng Mountain, when the Great Sui Emperor Yang Jian had a very good relationship with him, and later Yang Jian dictatorship excluded dissidents, Xiangzhou Governor Wei Chi Yi was dissatisfied and immediately led troops to resist. Because Wei Chi Chong and Wei Chi Chong are of the same clan, in order to show that he will not rebel with Yu Chi Chong, Yu Chi Chong imprisoned himself in a cage and sent someone to Yang Jian to plead guilty.

Yang Jian knew that Wei Chi Chong had no objection, so he personally wrote a letter to comfort him, and transferred him to the court as an official. During the Kaihuang period, he once fought fiercely with Li Xian's master Daxi Changru and the Turkic wolf cavalry in Zhoupan and defeated the Turks, but Wei Chi Chong fought and died. Feeling his loyalty, Yang Jian posthumously named him a general, and the history of Yuzhou assassination. Wei Chi Yichen attacked his title and gave him the surname Yang.

After Yu Wenshu and the three of them made arrangements, they ordered the withdrawal of the army on the second day.

……

……

It's just June, and the weather in Liyang is already hot and irritable. Hiding in the dense bushes, they screamed endlessly, and the hot weather made people want to plunge into the canal and swim happily.

Liyang Cang is built on the mountain, it is the national warehouse of the Great Sui, and Xingluo Cang is its name, the grain stored in it is not less than one million stones, until the Tang Dynasty was built many years later, the grain in the warehouse has not been eaten.

On the third day of the sixth month, many people gathered in the mansion of Yang Xuangan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites who supervised grain in Liyang. These people are all Yang Xuangan's relatives and dependents, as well as some of his father's Chu Gong Yang Su's old subordinates. Yang Xuangan stood in the courtyard in military uniform, glanced at the subordinates in front of him who were about to help him complete his great cause, and his heart was full of turbulent ambition. His face turned a sickly red from his excitement. Perhaps because the weather was too hot, his armor was soaked with sweat. However, at this time, Yang Xuangan didn't have the heart to care about these, what he wanted to care about was an earth-shaking event.

On this day, Yang Xuangan summoned 8,000 people who were transporting grain, and announced the expedition with the canvas covering the grain. However, he did not dare to directly raise the banner of rebellion, but lied that the general of the naval division who was attacking Liaodong came to protect the rebellion, and sent an official document to summon the soldiers and horses of nearby counties to come to converge and send troops to "exterminate the rebels"

Before Li Mi had given him three strategies, the upper strategy was to attack the army to the north, occupy Youzhou, block the way back of the Liao army of Yang Guang, the emperor of the Great Cause, and block millions of men and horses in Liaodong, then the big thing can be done. The army attacked Chang'an, captured the emperor's grandson Yang Yu and others who stayed in Chang'an, in order to threaten Yang Guang, and then control Tongguan, and then send troops to conquer, which is the middle strategy. The next strategy was to attack the eastern capital Luoyang, but Luoyang was heavily guarded, and the outcome was unpredictable.

Yang Xuan thought about it for a long time and decided to act according to Li Mi's strategy. Li Mi's persuasion was fruitless, so he was a little disappointed in Yang Xuangan.

In Li Mi's view, the best way out is naturally the best way out. As long as the army goes north to occupy Zhuojun, it can block the million-strong army of the emperor's expedition outside the territory of the Great Sui, and the army of the Eastern Expedition will not come back, and there will be Goguryeo people behind the onslaught, as long as the emperor dies, half of the world will be taken.

But Yang Xuan didn't listen, and he had to attack Luoyang, the eastern capital.

Because of this incident, Li Mi felt that Yang Xuangan was not a person who had achieved great things, so he quietly arranged and prepared a way back.

It's just that Li Mi didn't know that because of these three strategies, Yang Xuangan also questioned his ability. In Yang Xuangan's view, Li Mi's most admired best policy actually doesn't work at all! Not to mention that Zhuo County has Luo Yi's 5,000 tigers and tens of thousands of strong soldiers, even if he can defeat Luo Yi and occupy Zhuo County, can he really stop the million-strong army from returning to the division? This best policy, in fact, is simply on paper! When Youzhou Luo Yi is a furnishing? When the million-strong army of Liao is a local chicken and a dog?

Therefore, Yang Xuangan still decided to lay down the eastern capital first, and then take Chang'an.

And his root is Liyangcang, as long as Liyangcang is still in his hands, he doesn't have to worry about the army running out of food! Therefore, Yang Xuangan left Yuan Wuben, whom he trusted very much, to stay in Liyang. He led his army south and fought for hegemony.

It's just that he didn't expect that Liyang would have been remembered for a long time.
