Emperor Sui Yang

"What did you just say? Say it again?" Yang Jian looked ferocious.

It was originally a good thing that Lai Hu'er arrived in Jiangdu. Yang Jian was very excited at first, thinking that with two generals under his command, Yu Wenshu and Lai Hu'er, it would be easy to suppress the rebellion in Jiangnan.

As a result, the first time I met the nurse, I had to decentralize power.

What kind of separation of powers law?Du Fuwei belongs to me, and I will lead the army to destroy him. Destroying Du Fuwei means taking back the six counties of Danyang, Liyang, Lujiang, Tong'an, Xuancheng and Yuhang.

These six counties are all in the south of Jiangdu. Once they are taken back, they will not affect the emperor's visit to Jiangdu.

Du Fuwei is currently the most powerful rebel force in the entire south. Under his command are Fu Gong'er, Miao Haichao, Li Zitong, Zhao Pozhen, Wang Xiongdan, Kan Ling, Wenren Sui'an, Dai Yi and more than ten others. A famous general.

After killing him, the remaining bandits will no longer have anything to fear. They will come to protect their children and plan to put down the rebellion in Jiangnan.

Facing Yang Jian's stern inquiry, Lai Hu'er said expressionlessly: "I already know how to fight. To avoid being interfered with the march, it is best to use me as the main general and send troops from Jiangdu. We must wipe out the Du thieves before June." .”

The corners of Yuwenshu's mouth curled up slightly, but he said nothing.

Come and protect your child, come and protect your child, do you really want to overpower me?The crown prince asked you to command the army in Zhuo County. You tasted the benefits, and you want to do the same in Jiangdu?

Yang Jian is not a prince, so if you want to command the military from him, it is just a dream.

Yang Xian laughed wildly. After a while, he pointed at Lai Huer and said, "How about I, the general manager of Jiangnan Road's march, leave it to you?"

Lai Hu'er lowered his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Why should the King of Qi be angry? Our purpose is to put down the rebellion. With the ability of the prince, I can give full power in Zhuo County to me, let alone the King of Qi?"

His words were very contemptuous, and it was tantamount to mocking Yang Jian for not knowing how to lead an army in front of so many people.

The main thing is that the level is in place.

At present, in the Sui army, apart from Yang Ming, Yu Wenshu, the second oldest, and Yu Zhongwen, the third oldest, are the absolute top three.

There were only a few people in the center who dared to ridicule Yang Jing. They were Yang Guang's loyal supporters. If they scolded Yang Jing a few times, nothing would happen.

During the reign of Emperor Kaihuang, Gao Xi even scolded Yang Yong. What could happen?Yang Jian and his wife would only think that Gao Xi was doing Yang Yong's good, but Yang Yong was more petty and complained about Gao Xi in his heart. If he listened to Gao Xi in everything, Yang Guang would have nothing to do with him.

Yang Jian was so angry that he kicked the long table over, pointed at Lai Huer and said:

"Okay, it's worthy of being brought out by He Ruobi. He is indeed arrogant and arrogant. If you want to lead an army, you can do it in your next life."

The idiom "pretentious" does not originate from He Ruobi, but from the Qing Dynasty. However, these four words have been used to evaluate He Ruobi in history, because He Ruobi looked down on the other three of the four people in the Sui Dynasty Wumiao Temple.

Yang Ming once used these four words to describe He Ruobi, but it spread and became He Ruobi's label.

Lai Hu'er said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty will patrol the south of Jiangdu in June. If the King of Qi can find a way to pacify Jiangnan before June, I will be free from work, but you don't have the ability."

He has been tough with Yang Xun since he arrived. His fundamental purpose is to take over the Xiangyang Navy. If you don't stand on the opposite side of Yang Xun, will the prince let you go to the Navy?

"Everyone here is a general. I, the Sui Dynasty, are not the only ones who will protect my children and lead the army. Go back to where you came from," Yang Jian sneered.

Lai Hu'er said calmly: "I am following His Majesty's decree and want me to go back. Unless Your Majesty makes another decree, I am not your marching commander and will not be assigned by King Qi."

Yang Xian was about to faint from anger. Damn it, why did dad send such a bastard to go against me?
"Okay, you said so, then you can use your [-] Luoyang garrison to fight against Du Fuwei. I don't have any extra manpower for you here," Yang Jian said.

Come and protect the child silently, watch your eyes, nose and heart.

Yu Wenshu smiled and said: "Chongshan (the word for coming to protect children) is too anxious. He has just arrived in Jiangdu and has to send troops. Isn't it too hasty?"

"Xu Gong has been in Jiangdu for so long and things have not made any progress. Is this appropriate?" Lai Hu'er asked.

Yu Wenhuaji suddenly felt unhappy and said: "Where did Rong Gong get so angry? No one provoked you, but you started to speak so harshly. It's like Jiangnan's counter-rebellion. You were the only one interested, and we were all occupying positions. Not working.”

Big versus big, small versus small, Lai Kai immediately retorted: "You have been working hard, but Jurong has been lost. When I heard that Fugong Er had seven ships, he sent Wang Shichong back. What? Seven five-toothed ships?" Ship?"

Then, the two started to quarrel. As for Yuwen Ergou and Sangou, they couldn't get in the middle of the conversation. They were the eldest son versus the eldest son, and their status was not good enough.

Laikai and Yuwenji, these are all produced by Yang Guang's Qianniu Beishen. They are gold-plated and are different from those that are not gold-plated.

The backstage of these two people is Yang Guang, but Er Gou and San Gou are not.

Lai Hu'er and Yu Wenshu didn't stop him. They didn't want to deal with him in the first place.

A military intelligence meeting ended in a quarrel.Lai Huer left Jiangdu City and went directly to Jiangyang Wharf. If the Xiangyang navy could use it, he was fully confident to kill Du Fuwei.

Sometimes having more people is an advantage, but in a water battle, no, Du Fuwei's 20 troops, nor the Dragon King's shrimp soldiers and crab generals, you can't fight in the water.

The warships of the Xiangyang Navy are currently the river ships with the most advanced technology and the strongest combat effectiveness in the Sui Dynasty, and all the guards are refined weapons, and Yang Ming has spent a lot of money to train them.

The normal establishment is 5000 people, but the actual establishment is 1 people, all of whom are descendants of Jingzhou who are proficient in water skills. The Yangtze River runs sideways and there are no natural enemies.

"Before I leave, the prince handed over the Xiangyang navy to me. You should prepare well and take Jiangning first in six days," Lai Hu'er ordered at the navy camp.

Shen and Zhou nodded: "General, I will obey."

Yang Ming had indeed promised verbally. This was a fact. Lai Huer did not lie, and Shen Lun and the others knew it well.

It is already very difficult to drag them until they have not left the dock. Laihu'er has come in person and has the prince's order. They dare not drag them. Otherwise, Laihuer can kill them directly in the name of the prince. both.

That is an unjust death.

Delaying is not only possible in Jiangdu. It can also be delayed after entering the Yangtze River. Their purpose is to wait for the latest order from the prince and then act in accordance with it.

Zhao Yuanke asked: "So Rong Gong, what are the arrangements for Jiangdu Navy?"

Lai Hu'er said expressionlessly: "You are following the orders of the King of Qi. I have no right to dispatch the Xiangyang navy. The prince nodded, but you, the King of Qi did not nod."

Oh. That means we don’t need to be there, so I can worry less. Brother Zhao Yuanke looked at each other and nodded.

After Yu Wenshu's negotiation, the Jiangdu navy was drawn out from the Xiangyang navy. Of the 29 ships, there were only six high-rise ships, namely Huanglong ships, and the rest were second-floor ships.

However, the Xiangyang navy has eight Wuya large ships, eighteen Huanglong ships, seventeen Fenghuang ships, 38 red ships, and 230 grasshopper boats, stern boats, assault boats, and fire ships. It is the dominant force on the Yangtze River.

We have the Xiangyang Navy to protect our children, so there is no need for the Jiangdu Navy.

After the specific arrangements were made, Shen and Zhou were left behind to protect the children, and said sincerely:

"You are the commander-in-chief of the Xiangyang Navy. Your Majesty and the Prince have entrusted the largest navy on the Yangtze River to your hands. This is a sign of their trust in you. Now that the country is in trouble and bandits are raging, it is your opportunity to repay your favor. What is the situation above? You don’t have to care about it, you can’t care about it, just do your part with all your heart.”

He was hinting to the two of them that you are serving the imperial court after all, so don't delay national affairs because of factional disputes.

Shen Lun nodded and said: "Rong Gong, don't worry. The Xiangyang navy is well-equipped. Six days will be enough for the troops to board the ship. The two of us will definitely obey Rong Gong's deployment without hesitation."

Lai Kai smiled and said to the two of them: "We also hope that the prince will be in charge of Jiangnan this time. Unfortunately, the emperor's order cannot be violated. My eldest son and sixth brother are both by the prince's side. We are not outsiders. Duke Rong has surpassed the king of Qi. , mainly attacking Du Fuwei, just because we don’t want King Qi to take away the credit that should belong to the prince. In fact, our purpose is the same, to suppress the rebellion for your majesty and to share the prince’s worries. You fought well, and you have worked hard for this credit. Naturally, it still belongs to the prince and has nothing to do with King Qi."

"The two of us only obey Duke Rong's orders," Zhou Zhongmou said with a smile: "General Mo has a very good personal relationship with Liu Lang, and he has high admiration for Duke Rong. We will do our best on this expedition."

Lai Zheng is led by Zuo Wu, Yang Ming's servant. He has dealt with Zhou Zhongmou. Of course, a good personal relationship is definitely not considered. Zhou Zhongmou is a commoner, and he comes from Lai Zheng's background. What can I do with you? personal friendship?It's just that everyone eats from the same pot.

Lai Hu'er nodded: "Your father Yi Ning Gong (Zhou Luohu) and I are both from the south. We were also colleagues in the battle to destroy Chen. We fought together in the Shui War. He is one of the few people who is admired by me. I think The navy in Xiangyang is connected with boats and boats, the ships are majestic, and the military discipline is strict. It can be seen that Zhong Mou has won the mantle."

Zhou Zhongmo hurriedly said something modest.

Lai Kai said: "Yi Ning Gong started his career as Chen Jurong County Magistrate. Zhong Mou should also know the Jiangnan area very well, right?"

Zhou Zhongmou said: "The general knows the waterways south of the Yangtze River like the palm of his hand."

"That's good," Lai Kai nodded and said, "I'll attack Jurong, you take Jiangning, how about we meet up in Jiangning?"

There are only three counties in Danyang County, Jiangning, Dangtu, and Lishui. If you take the capital Jiangning, it doesn't matter whether you want the other two.

Because after taking Jiangning, the next target must be Liyang County, the capital of Liyang County. This place is closer to Jiangning than Dangtu and Lishui.

Zhou Zhongmo glanced at Shen Lun, and after getting the hint, he nodded and said:
"Since Mr. Rong has arranged it like this, Jiang Ning can be left to us."

Lai Hu'er felt at ease, smiled and stroked his beard and said: "Sure enough, the prince knows the truth. As long as I take Danyang and Liyang, I will not stop you two from going anywhere."

Shen and Zhou Zhou looked at each other and were shocked at the same time.

Lai Huer smiled and said, "What we say today is not allowed to be spread outside the world. You know it and I know it."

Shen and Zhou's faces were bloodless, and they had a terrifying feeling of being seen through without clothes.
