control the heavens

Chapter 138
Tang Han took over the imperial decree, took over the military talisman from Yang Guang, and left.

He inquired a bit and found Li Yuan's camp. Li Yuan supervised the transportation of grain and grass. Originally, he only needed to be in Huaiyuan Town, but this time coincided with the victory of the army. There are quite a lot of things.

But when Tang Han entered the camp, he saw Li Yuan cocking his feet, squinting his eyes slightly, humming a tune, very uncomfortable, and he didn't seem busy at all.

"Father." Tang Han clasped his fists and called softly.

Li Yuan opened his eyes in surprise when he heard Tang Han's voice, and said, "Sanlang, you escaped from Fu Cailin?"

Originally, the soldiers under Tang Han returned to the camp. When Li Yuan learned that Tang Han had met Fu Cailin, he thought that Tang Han would die this time. Grandmaster Ning Daoqi, Ning Daoqi just glanced at him, which made him feel invincible.

But now, Tang Han actually appeared in front of him alive.

"Father, although Fu Cailin is stronger, but he still can't do it if he wants to keep the child." Tang Han said with a light smile.

The great master Cailin is indeed powerful, and he is no opponent to fight Tang Han head-on, but Tang Han wants to escape, and Fu Cailin can't catch up. Even if he meets Fu Cailin again, Tang Han is sure to escape.

"Father, what do you think of your Majesty's promotion of me as General Chariot and Cavalry General and Chief of Liaodong this time?" Tang Han looked at Li Yuan.

Li Yuan is already 47 years old this year, because Li Yuan's grandfather Li Hu was an official to Taiwei in the Western Wei Dynasty, and he was one of the Eight Pillar Kingdoms in the Western Wei Dynasty.Li Yuan's father, Li Yan, was the official censor of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the general manager of Anzhou, and the general of the Zhu State.Li Yuan's mother was the elder sister of Empress Dugu, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, so although Li Yuan's father Li Min died when Li Yuan was seven years old, Li Yuan successfully inherited the title of Duke of Tang.

At that time, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty was abdicated by Emperor Jing of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and established the Sui Dynasty. In order to win over the gentry, especially Li Yuan, who was the head of the Li family and one of the representatives of the big nobles who were related to each other, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty appointed Li Yuan as Qianniu Bei He is very respectful of Li Yuan, and has served as governor of Qiaozhou, Longzhou, and Qizhou for many times.

Yang Guang ascended the throne as emperor. At the beginning, Yang Guang also attached great importance to Li Yuan, his cousin. He successively promoted Li Yuan to be the prefect of Xingyang and Loufan counties.

It was only later that Yang Guang began to be very jealous of the aristocratic family and wanted to win Li Yuan to deal with the aristocratic family. Unfortunately, Li Yuan did not work hard, which annoyed Yang Guang, and made Yang Guang very dissatisfied with Li Yuan. Instead, he vigorously promoted the Yuwen Clan and strengthened the power of the Yuwen Clan. .This time Yang Guang personally led an army of one million to conquer Goguryeo, but Li Yuan was only asked to supervise the transportation of food and grass, and his official position was very low.

But in Tang Han's heart, Li Yuan is definitely an old fox, otherwise there would not be a sudden rise in the original trajectory, Taiyuan raised troops, entered Dingguan in a short time, established the career of king and hegemony, and finally swept away the heroes, unified the world, and became the Great Tang The founding emperor.

So for some things, Tang Han still had to plan with Li Yuan.

"Your Majesty actually appointed you as General Chariot and Cavalry General and Chief of Liaodong? Didn't the chief of Liaodong want to appoint Zhang Xutuo?" Li Yuan frowned slightly.

Zhang Xutuo, this is a general in the Sui Army, his martial arts has also reached the level of a master, and he can definitely be ranked among the top ten generals in the Sui Army.This person also came from a famous family, the grandson of Zhang Si, the Duke of Nanyang County in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. He initially followed Shu King Yang Xiu and was awarded the third division of yitong.After Yang Guang came to the throne, Han Wang Yang Liang rebelled against Jinyang.He was appointed Sima of Anzhou, followed the general Yang Su to put down the rebellion, and worshiped as the third division of Kaifu Yitong.

This time Yang Guang personally led an army of one million to conquer Goguryeo, it was precisely for Zhang Xutuo to lead his army to garrison Shandong, guarding the army's back road, and avoiding worries about the future.Even some peasant uprisings were put down by Zhang Xutuo, who was definitely Yang Guang's confidant general and the pillar minister of the Sui Dynasty.

So today when the ministers were discussing the candidates to guard Liaodong, many people recommended Zhang Xutuo.Of course, Li Yuan could tell that everyone recommended Zhang Xutuo because they wanted Yang Guang to send the general to Liaodong and stay away from the Central Plains. It's good.

Tang Han didn't expect that there were so many Taoisms in it, and at the same time, he secretly felt that these aristocratic families are really not ordinary, and soft knives can kill people.

"Father, Your Majesty has given me the imperial decree and military talisman, and it has become a big deal for my child to guard Liaodong." Tang Han took out the imperial decree and military talisman and said softly.

Li Yuan sighed: "Your Majesty is putting you on the fire, and it also makes my Li family fearful from other families, and puts my Li family in an awkward position."

After a little thought, Li Yuan understood Yang Guang's intentions.Using Tang and Han to guard Liaodong City undoubtedly broke the situation of the aristocratic family, allowing Zhang Xutuo, a general, to still guard Shandong and suppress the Shandong aristocratic family.Moreover, Tang Han can escape from Fu Cailin's hands, and let Tang Han be the general manager of Liaodong, which can protect Liaodong. But in this way, Tang Han will become a thorn in the side of the family, and the Li family is also in a delicate situation.

It's killing three birds with one stone.

Yang Guang wantonly suppressed the great families, the imperial examination system is simply digging the foundations of the great families, they ransacked the families and exterminated them every now and then, although there is no rebellion yet, but the grievances are brewing, the families are already making moves, wanting to mess up The world, let the world be chaotic, overthrow the Sui Dynasty, and rebuild the world.

Li Yuan knew that there was an aristocratic general Zhong Qiangnu who sold it to Goguryeo privately, and there were people who did Yang Xuangan's work again, intending to persuade Yang Xuangan to rebel, causing chaos in the rear of the Sui army and being defeated in Liaodong.

Yang Xuangan is the eldest son of Yang Su, who inherited Yang Su's title of Duke of Chu.That Yang Su was a big boss in the Sui Dynasty, the grandson of Yang Xuan, an admonishing doctor in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and the son of Yang Fu, a general of hussars in the Northern Zhou Dynasty.Yang Su, who was born in Hongnong Yang's family, is informal and ambitious.At the beginning of his official career in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, he paid homage to the general of chariots and the third division of Yitong, and participated in the battle to pacify the Northern Qi Dynasty.In terms of status, Yang Su and Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty Yang Jian belonged to the clan brothers. It can be said that Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty was able to seize the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and Yang Su made great contributions.In the eighth year of Emperor Kaihuang's reign, Yang Su, as a marching marshal, led the navy to the east to attack the Chen Dynasty, paid homage to the governor of Jingzhou, and was granted the title of Duke of Yue.

It can even be said that Yang Guang was able to ascend the throne thanks to the help of Yang Su.After Yang Guang came to the throne, it was Yang Su who led the army to fight against the rebellion of Han Wang Yang Liang, worshiped Shang Shuling, Taishi, and Situ, and was named Duke of Chu.

Unfortunately, in the second year of Daye, Yang Su passed away.However, Yang Su left a rich family fortune to the Yang family, but Yang Su's eldest son's talents were far inferior to Yang Su's. He always complained about Yang Su's grievances in his heart, and felt that with Yang Su's achievements, it was not an exaggeration to be crowned king.In private, he often said bad things about Yang Guang.

But this time Yang Guang personally led an army of one million to attack Goguryeo, and was appointed by Yang Guang to supervise the transportation of grain and grass in Liyang. Liyang is not comparable to Huaiyuan Town, but Liyang has stored millions of tons of grain and grass, and is responsible for millions of troops. needed.

"Father, I don't think this is an opportunity for our Li family. If the boy is in charge of Liaodong, once the world is in chaos, he can conquer Youzhou in a short time. And with the boy in Liaodong, His Majesty will not easily kill the Li family." Tang Han said softly: "And my child sees that Liaodong is all black land and the land is fertile. Although it is sparsely populated now, if it is easy to manage, why can't it be possible to manage a business?"

"Sanlang, don't talk nonsense." Li Yuan turned pale with shock, and quickly checked left and right.

"Father, don't worry, there is no one around the camp. In the whole world, I am afraid that there are only three great masters who can get close to prevent children from finding out." Tang Han said quickly when he saw Li Yuan's cautious appearance.

"Your Majesty fears the aristocratic family, promotes imperial examinations, and opens the Grand Canal. The conflict with the aristocratic family will definitely become more and more serious. This is an irreconcilable contradiction. Unless your majesty is willing to learn from Emperor Guangwu and rule the world with the aristocratic family..." Tang Han whispered.

Li Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, with a slight gleam in his eyes.The reason why he was unwilling to board Yang Guang's boat was because, as the head of the Li family, Li Yuan knew very well the power of the family, which was too powerful.There are five surnames and seven families, and the Yang family is just one of the five surnames and seven families. Although the Yang family is a royal family, its strength has grown rapidly and it has become the head of the family, but it still wants to suppress other families and completely weaken the power of the family. .Yang Guang is anxious to suppress the power of the aristocratic family, sooner or later it will cause the aristocratic family to rebound, and the world will inevitably be in chaos.

Li Yuan was surprised that Tang Han had such vision.One must know that it was Li Jiancheng, the eldest son who was raised by him as the head of the Li family in the future, and he still couldn't see it at this time.Even the second son Li Shimin, who is known as the unparalleled intelligence, doesn't know it at all.On the contrary, Tang Han, the adopted son, focused on martial arts since he was a child, and instead saw the general trend of the world clearly.

"Sanlang, you are in Liaodong. The biggest problem is that you have to face the threat of Fu Cailin. As a grand master, Fu Cailin's strength is unfathomable. If he wants to deal with you, I'm afraid you have no time to do him." Li Yuan said: "Our Li The foundation of our family is in Longxi, so we can't reach Liaodong, even if we want to help you, it's hard for us to help you."

In today's world, the strength of the north is far greater than that of the south, and Guanzhong and Kanto occupy most of the power. The prosperity of the world lies in these two places.As for Liaodong, a place of bitter cold, it is really too difficult to develop.

"Father, didn't your Majesty migrate 300 million people to Liaodong? As long as there are people, why not be afraid of not being able to develop. As for Fu Cailin, after a year or two, Fu Cailin will never want to do anything with the child." Tang Han said.

Although Liaodong is bitter and cold, it is a treasure land. Not only are there many mountains and forests, the land is fertile, and there are many minerals, but more importantly, there is no family, so the administration is much smoother.And at that time, Tang and Han will still have one hundred thousand troops in their hands, all of them are elite troops, living in Liaodong, watching the situation in the Central Plains quietly, but at critical moments, they can become a force that can influence the situation of the world.
