Chapter 204 The General Trend of the World
As soon as Zhou You finished speaking, a sonorous voice suddenly came from outside: "The head of the foolish emperor Yang Guang is here!"
After hearing this, everyone subconsciously turned around and saw Wu Yunzhao, who was covered in blood outside, walking in. He was holding several heads in his hands, and not only those of the Hunjun Yang Guang. Behind him, there were also people with blood on their bodies, carrying them in one hand.
The domineering Pei Yuanqing wears an eight-sided plum-blossom hammer.
It turned out that after the dragon boat was breached, Yang Guang, under the protection of Yu Wenhua and his father and son, took advantage of the chaos and escaped in a small boat with his beloved concubine Zhu Guier and his youngest son.
On the dragon boat, when other anti-king troops captured the beauties who fled in panic on the boat, Wu Yun summoned Yang Guang, who was not there. He already hated the faint king Yang Guang, so he directly led his people to chase him, and finally caught up with him before he could
Yang Guang and others fled away.
Naturally, a small boat cannot carry too many people. In addition, Yuwen Chengdu was seriously injured and Pei Yuanqing subsequently led troops to help. In the end, not only Yang Guang, Yu Wenhua and others, but also Yuwen Chengdu was joined by Wu Yunzhao and Pei Yuanqing.
kill.
In this way, Yu Wenhua and his father and son died together with Yang Guang before they could kill the king. Instead, they became known as a loyal king and protector. It is a bit ridiculous to think about it. Sadly, Yang Guang had no chance to see him.
The true face of his confidant Yu Wenji was revealed.
After seeing Yang Guang's head, the anti-kings and generals couldn't help but feel excited and excited. Yang Guang died, the Sui Dynasty fell, and the world was about to change dynasties. They made great contributions and achieved great hegemony.
The opportunity has arrived.
As for Yang Guang's concubines, although almost all of them couldn't help crying after learning that Yang Guang was dead, they were probably the only ones who cried sadly for Yang Guang's death or for their own fate.
knew.
In the battle of Siping Mountain, the anti-king coalition not only eliminated the last elite troops of the Sui Dynasty, but also killed Yang Lin and the first brave general of the Sui Dynasty, Yuwen Chengdu, and also killed Yang Guang. The Sui Dynasty was considered to be destroyed.
This battle also brought Zhouyou's prestige to its peak. At the same time, Wagang received real benefits from the surrender of tens of thousands of elite Sui troops. He followed the trend southward along the canal to capture Yangzhou, first surrendering Wu Yunzhao, and then Du Fu.
Wei and Shen Faxing both surrendered and surrendered.
Since then, Zhou You has owned the prosperous lands of the Central Plains, Jianghuai and Jiangnan, with half of the country in his hands, hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and a huge force of war generals.
At the same time, the Wagang Army secretly invaded Chencang, and sent troops under the command of Prince Zhou Ping to sneak attack Luoyang. They unexpectedly destroyed the city wall with gunpowder, and attacked the city with a large number of fire and thunder. They captured Luoyang in one fell swoop. Their reputation shocked the world and shocked Xu Yuanlang.
Actively surrender.
Just when he was traveling north to Luoyang to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor, tell the world, and reward meritorious officials, Li Yuan, who raised troops in Taiyuan, also sent his second son Li Shimin into Guanzhong and captured Chang'an.
In the north, Dou Jiande wanted to take over Jizhou to solve his worries, but he did not expect to lose his troops at the expense of his daughter. In the end, he was defeated by Luo Song and his troops. The territory and men went to his son-in-law Luo Song.
Immediately afterwards, without waiting for Zhou You to surrender, Luo Yi and Luo Song took the initiative to submit to the Wei Dynasty. Zhou You also generously rewarded Luo Yi with the hereditary title of King of Peiping, and named Luo Song the Marquis of Jingbian.
The governor of the state asked the Luo family to guard the northern border for the new dynasty for generations.
For a time, except for Guanzhong, northwest and southwest, most of the entire world was already under the control of the Wei Dynasty. The situation changed so fast that it was simply unprepared. Li Yuan and his son, who had just established a foothold in Guanzhong, were the first to bear the brunt of the panic.
Already.
Although the Li family captured Chang'an, they still failed to fully control Guanzhong. It could be said that they were surrounded by enemies on all sides, and their men and horses were far inferior to those of the Wei Dynasty. How could they compare with the Wei Dynasty, which was as powerful as a dragon and in great military strength?
Fight for the world?
I am afraid that if Wei really waits for the army to send troops, many officials, generals, and wealthy families in Guanzhong, which is not popular among the people, will choose to join Wei directly.
Li Yuan and his son took action too late and had already lost the opportunity. With the proclaimed emperor in Luoyang and the attachment of Luo Yi and his son, the general trend of the world was already in the Wei Dynasty. Even if the Li family captured Chang'an, it would only show their weakness.
It's just a momentary edge.
After learning that Li Shimin had captured Chang'an, Shan Xiongxin was the first one in the Wei court who couldn't help but ask Zhou You for orders to attack Chang'an.
In the back garden of the Luoyang Palace, in the pavilion, Zhou You was holding a jade cup filled with wine as red as blood grapes. He was leisurely sipping wine and watching the mandarin ducks playing in the lake.
Amidst the sound of footsteps, Xiaofeng came over with a pretty and haggard woman. She bowed slightly to Zhou You and then said, "Your Majesty, bring the girl Hong Fu!"
"Hong Fu Girl... I've heard of her name for a long time! She is indeed stunning. No wonder Li Jing doesn't care about your background and wants to marry you," Zhou You said with a faint smile, looking at the haggard and pretty woman, "What a pity!
It seems that he still doesn't care about you that much. Otherwise, why did he still refuse to come and submit to me when I kept you here for a long time and asked people to send him messages? Could it be that he thinks that guy Li Shimin is more qualified than me?
Be an emperor?"
Hongfu Nu said in a cold voice: "Even though King Wei is a talented and strategist, just because you want to use me to blackmail Li Jing into seeking refuge, you have lost the dignity of a king."
"Well said! This idea is indeed not a good one," Zhou You said with a noncommittal smile: "Li Shimin has written to me many times, asking me to let you go. It seems that he is indeed more benevolent and righteous than me. Your husband Li Jing is indeed
A great talent can help Li Shimin invade Guanzhong and capture Chang'an so quickly. It's a pity that such talent cannot be used by me."
Then Zhou You said: "However, Li Shimin, he is also a grasshopper after the autumn, and he won't be able to jump around for long. To be honest, I have asked Shan Xiongxin and the Pei family to lead the troops to attack Taiyuan. Li Shimin's family members are all
There, it seems that Li Yuan hasn’t had time to go to Chang’an yet!”
"Tell me, if there is no way out, how will Li Shimin choose, and how will Li Jing choose?" Seeing the change in Hong Fu Nu's face, Zhou You couldn't help but smile, and then said: "I have decided to let you go.
I asked you to go to Chang'an and report a message to Li Shimin. Just say that I will give him enough time to attack Longyou and Hexi as a gift. I hope he can make a wise choice and don't
Let me drive out the Li family and kill them all."
Hearing Zhou You's words, Hongfu Nu couldn't help but narrow her beautiful eyes, looking at Zhou You in disbelief. She obviously didn't expect Zhou You to be so courageous. After taking Taiyuan, he was not ready to attack Chang'an immediately and attack Li Shimin.
If you dare to let him attack Xue Ju and Li Gui, are you not afraid that Li Shimin will control the entire Guanzhong and will not be able to defeat him? Or is Zhou You ready to wait until Li Shimin and Xue Ju are both injured in the fight, and then reap the benefits?
"What? You're not leaving yet? Don't you want to leave again? Do you want to stay in my palace?" Zhou Yuxi smiled jokingly, which immediately made Hongfu Nu's pretty face turn red when she came back to her senses. Then she gritted her teeth and turned around to leave.
.
More than a month later, more than 100,000 Wei troops entered Shanxi and attacked Taiyuan City with overwhelming force. Shan Xiongxin led the troops to the city first, and quickly captured the defenders in one go. The defenders were not many, and their morale was also somewhat lacking.
Taiyuan City.
In order to save the lives of his family, Li Yuan committed suicide to atone for the crime of manslaughter of Shan Xiongxin's eldest brother Shan Dao. After Shan Xiongxin avenged his brother, he did not kill the old, weak, women and children of the Li family again.
After Taiyuan was captured and his family fell into the hands of the Wei army, Li Shimin, after a struggle, handed over the army to the command of Li Jing and went to Luoyang in person to surrender to Zhou You. If you like the movie and TV show, please save it: (www
