The Summoning of the Troubled Times at the End of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 217 The bee chrysalis arrives, and the fight against the king

Let me just say that uprisings have broken out all over the country since I received it.

Yang Guang didn't hesitate any longer, and led the civil and military concubines and royal personnel from the Jiangdu Palace to the north on a dragon boat.

He intends to return to Luoyang, the eastern capital, so as to control the overall situation of the world and control the development of the situation.

However, after arriving at Siming Mountain, Yang Guang's huge dragon boat was blocked.

Because under the call of the Wagang Army, all the anti-kings from all walks of life united to resist the violent Sui Dynasty.

And this time after the anti-king got the information that Yang Guang was going to return to Luoyang, the eastern capital.

Under Wagang Xu Shiji's strategy, they went south to join forces at Siming Mountain, where Yang Guang was about to return.

Immediately, a solid line of defense was set up to carry out the eternal great cause of intercepting and killing the tyrant Yang Guang.

For a while, here in Siming Mountain, the Sui army had a powerful confrontation with various anti-kings.

Although the Sui Xiaoguo army was indeed very brave, the sergeants from various anti-kings united to far surpass the Sui army.

Therefore, after several days of confrontation, the Sui army did not gain an overwhelming advantage.

This made Yang Guang, who was anxious to return to the court, very anxious.

…………

On the dragon boat, the main hall

The minister Yang Yichen, who was in a court uniform, cupped his hands and came out, and said: "Your Majesty, I have something to say, I wonder if it is okay?"

Seeing Yang Yichen come out to have an audience, Yang Guang stopped hesitating immediately and waved his hand to signal to continue.

Immediately, Yang Yichen took a deep breath, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, now various anti-kings are rampant, relying on their superior strength to confront our army."

"Although my Xiaoguo army is brave, it cannot quickly defeat all the anti-kings."

"Therefore, I have an idea, and I hope His Majesty will approve it."

Hearing this, Yang Guangda was overjoyed, and said in a deep voice, "Aiqing, tell me quickly!"

Immediately, Yang Yichen didn't hesitate anymore, and said slowly: "Your Majesty can order all parties to garrison and come to serve the king."

"Just wait for the reinforcements from all walks of life in the Sui Dynasty to arrive, and then start a decisive battle with all the anti-kings, and destroy all the anti-kings in one fell swoop."

"At that time, why worry that I, Da Sui, won't be able to rejuvenate again?"

For a while, Yang Yichen slowly stated his strategy, which soon attracted the unanimous approval of all the ministers who really thought about the country.

At this time, the treacherous officials headed by Yu Wenhuaji were silent, and for the first time, they did not raise any objections.

After a long pause, Yang Guang saw that there was no objection, and asked, "Yang Aiqing, I don't know which army should be summoned to serve the king according to your opinion?"

Hearing this, Yang Yichen couldn't help thinking hard, and then slowly said: "Your Majesty, according to what I see, we should summon Li Shimin, the prefect of Xihe, and Gaoqi, the Marquis of Jiangling."

"As long as there are these two people helping each other, we, Da Sui, will definitely be able to wipe out all the anti-kings this time."

Let's just say that Yang Yichen's words are not surprising!
Before Yang Guang could make a decision, Yu Shiji, the minister at the side, first raised a question, saying, "Why did you only call Li Shimin and Gao Qi to Qin Wang?"

"I came to guard the south of the Yangtze River in the Sui Dynasty, and the king of the mountain guarded Yanmen in the northern border. Pei Renji and Qiu Rui guarded the Central Plains."

"They all hold strong soldiers, and they have been in battle for a long time and have rich experience in using soldiers. Wouldn't it be better to summon them to serve the king than the two juniors Gao Qi and Li Shimin?"

After some words, Yang Guang couldn't help but squinted at Yang Yichen.

This look was clearly asking Yang Yichen why he summoned Gao Qi and Li Shimin.

Looking up and looking around, Yang Yichen put aside the mistrust of the ministers and said: "Your Majesty, everyone, the King of the Mountain, General Laihuer, Pei Renji, and General Qiu Rui, the King of Changping, are good at using troops."

"How can the righteous minister not know this?"

"It's just, have you ever thought about it, if the backer king is summoned to Qin Wang, what will happen to the defense line in the northern border?"

"And the troops of Pei Renji and General Qiu Rui, the king of Changping, cannot be mobilized either."

"Although the Wagang rebels are the initiators of this campaign, most of the soldiers and horses have gathered in Siming Mountain."

"Kewagang's power should not be underestimated. If the Central Plains garrison is greatly mobilized, I am afraid that the Central Plains will live up to our Great Sui!"

"General Hu'er came to guard the south of the Yangtze River, and the soldiers and horses under his command should also not be mobilized."

"Because the remnants of the Taiping Army have already retreated to the Lingnan area to stick to it, but when will they come out again and threaten us in the Sui Dynasty?"

Immediately, all the officials who saw Yang Yichen's eloquent words were speechless!

Pausing for a moment, Yang Yichen continued to analyze: "On the other hand, Gao Qi and Li Shimin, although they are still young, they are very experienced in using soldiers."

"Gao Qi, when this person was under the command of the minister, he was even younger."

"However, in the crusade against the Yellow Turban, the military skills and strategies and tactics he showed were even slightly inferior to me!"

"To this day, Gao Qi first made continuous attacks in the northern border, and gained a lot from going out of the fortress several times."

"In the end, when General Zhang Xutuo, the coach of the Eastern Expedition, was killed in battle, he was able to turn the tide and recover Liaodong for our Great Sui."

"And in the subsequent Pingjiangnan battle, Xiao Xian who independently subdued the rebellion."

"Growing up to this day, I'm afraid Gao Qi's military skills are already more sophisticated."

"As for Li Shimin, he is not inferior either. For the past few years he has been stationed in Xihe, he has not only gone out of the fortress every year, but also attacked the barbarians."

"We are still working hard to develop internal affairs and improve people's livelihood in the county."

"Therefore, with the actions of these two or more, I guarantee that the defeat of the anti-king will be accomplished immediately!"

In an instant, Yang Yichen recounted the experiences of Gao Qi and Li Shimin.

Immediately, Yang Guang began to think deeply, unable to make up his mind for a long time.

After all, this is a one-shot that will affect the whole body. This is a battle related to the fate of the Sui Dynasty, and there is no room for any mistakes.

In the end, after carefully weighing the pros and cons, Yang Guang made up his mind and summoned Li Shimin and Gao Qi to come to Qin Wang.

Namjun, Gangneung

I saw that Gao Qi was holding the imperial edict in his hand, but his heart was blank and he was at a loss!
In fact, anti-kings from all walks of life gathered in Siming Mountain to intercept and kill Yang Guang.

This is Gao Qi's dream and hope.

After all, after experiencing the battle of Siming Mountain this time, Sui Ting can completely declare that he is dead in name only and hopeless!
This is also more suitable for Gao Qi to raise his troops and declare independence.

But what is unexpected is that Yang Guang ordered himself to lead his troops to serve the king and attack all the anti-kings.

To be honest, Gao Qi didn't want to participate in the Siming Mountain battle.

Because, Gao Qi who owns the Summoning Stone knows that there are big bosses like Song Taizu and Ming Taizu hidden in this anti-king campaign.

If possible, Gao Qi didn't want to face them so early.

After all, dealing with people of the level of Zhao Kuangyin and Zhu Yuanzhang is not something that can be dealt with by ordinary tactics.

Although he didn't want to lead the army to go, Gao Qi had no choice but to summon his advisers to start a discussion under the imperial decree.

…………

Similarly, Xihe County Government
Li Shimin also summoned his generals and counselors to discuss the imperial edict of King Qin.
