Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Wang Junkuo occupied Yuci County, allowing the Sui army to occupy an offensive and defensive base.

    On December 25, Liu Yunfang led the main force of the Huwei Guards to Mujing City (now Beiyangqu Town, Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province).  On the same day, Zhang Wenyuan led the main force of Youtun Guards to Yuci County.

    Early on the morning of December 26, the two armies surrounded Jinyang City.

    More than 100,000 Sui troops came to the city. Li Yuanji, who had never taken them seriously, finally became afraid.

    At this time, although Li Yuanji was arrogant and domineering and not a son of a man, after all, he had little experience of current affairs and could not take on big responsibilities.  If Li Yuan had left Li Jiancheng or Li Shimin, they could still have defended Jinyang, but it was the ineffective Li Yuanji.

    When Li Yuanji saw the Sui army besieging the city, his first thought was to escape.

    But Yu Wenxin refused.

    Why did Li Yuan keep Li Yuanji, even though he knew the danger of staying behind.  That's why Li Yuanji, as Li Yuan's son, has great symbolic significance and can gather people's hearts to the maximum extent.  If Li Yuanji escapes, what will the others think?  If you, the Li family, can't fight to the death yourself, how can others be willing to sacrifice their lives for you?

    But Li Yuanji didn¡¯t care about this, he only knew that his father had rebelled.  If the city of Jinyang is destroyed, he will definitely die.

    Li Yuanji had to leave, and the quarrel with Yu Wenxin was ugly. In the end, Dou Dan dissuaded him.  Li Yuanji still respected his brother-in-law who was eating, drinking and having fun with him, so he had to give up.

    After seeing everyone off, Li Yuanji complained to Dou Dan and said: "Brother-in-law is really stupid. Don't you know the situation in Jinyang? The Sui army is powerful, and they are all elites under Duke Wei. They have 20,000 new soldiers in the middle of Jinyang city.  The soldiers will be invincible. If we stay in Jinyang and wait for the city to be broken, we will be prisoners of the Sui army.

    He, Yu Wenxin, could surrender to the Sui army, but can you and I surrender?  If the Sui army captures us, they will definitely use us as flag sacrifices.  "

    Dou Dan is Dou Kang¡¯s third son, and he and Li Yuanji can be compared to a nest of snakes and rats.  The two were having a lot of fun in Jinyang. Li Yuanji wanted to escape, but how could he have the courage to resist?

    However, Dou Dan had many thoughts, and when Yu Wenxin and others stopped him, he refused to let Li Yuanji have any conflict with him.

    Although Yu Wenxin was a civil servant, and both Li Yuanji and Liu Zhenghui were subordinates, because Li Yuanji was young, Li Yuan was worried that Li Yuanji would not be able to shoulder the responsibility of everyone, so he ordered that at critical moments, major matters should be decided jointly by Yu Wenxin, Liu Zhenghui, and Zhao Wenke.  In other words, if Li Yuanji insists on leaving and the two sides get into trouble, Yu Wenxin can still unite with the rest of the civil and military forces in the city to force Li Yuanji to stay.  Moreover, there are Zhao Wenke, Liu Zhenghui, uncle Wang Yu and others in the city. These people are trying to stop him. Could it be that Li Yuanji also breaks up with everyone?

    So Dou Dan stopped Li Yuanji.

    "Gu Zanggong, don't worry. I have made Jinyang undefendable, but Yu Wenxin and others insist on going their own way. Most of the civil and military officials in the city are Yu Wen Xin's confidants. If we force ourselves to leave, we will definitely fight against Yu Wen Xin.  There was a conflict, and there was an unexpected incident. If Duke Gu Zang led his army out of the city to attack the Sui army, Yu Wenxin would be left to defend the city. After leaving the city, we would hand over the army to Liu Zhenghui, and we would take the opportunity to go to Chang'an. Yu Wenxin would have nothing to do by then.  Stop us again.¡±

    Li Yuanji was overjoyed when he heard this and praised his cousin and brother-in-law for their intelligence.

    So when Li Yuanji saw Yu Wenxin the next day, he said that he would "lead the city's elite to attack."

    Yu Wenxin believed that the Sui army was too powerful and should not attack easily. It was better to defend.

    Li Yuanji became furious after hearing this, pointed at Yu Wenxin and cursed: "Yu Wenxin, are you the commander-in-chief or am I the commander-in-chief? Yesterday I said I would retreat, but you refused; today I said I would attack, but you still refused. You  Are you treating me like a child and want to be a follower of Wang Mang and Cao Cao to hold you hostage?"

    Yu Wenxin was shocked when he heard this.  Li Yuanji's words were really too destructive. He quickly knelt on the ground and said, "I don't dare, Xin Jue didn't mean it." At this time, Yu Wen Xin felt sad and extremely sad, and finally shed tears.

    Li Yuanji ignored Yu Wenxin at this time, flicked his sleeves and said loudly: "Early tomorrow morning, I will lead the army to attack the Sui army."

    After saying that, he left the meeting hall.

    At this time Liu Zhenghui stepped forward to help Yu Wenxin up.

    Yu Wenxin said sadly: "Gu Zang Gong treats me with such thoughts, how can I have the face to stay in the palace any longer." So he returned home and took leave of absence claiming illness.

    Liu Zhenghui was helpless. Without Yu Wenxin, he could only try his best to maintain it.

    Early on the next morning, Li Yuanji led more than 15,000 elite men in the city to fight, leaving the old and weak and the remaining army of more than 5,000 men to Zhao Wenke, who was responsible for defending the city.

    Of the original trio, Yu Wenxin claimed to be ill, Zhao Wenke had always been lively and did not dare to stop him, and Liu Zhenghui alone was unable to stop Li Yuan.Ji's nonsense.

    The army left the city gate and headed north.

    But not long after leaving the city, Li Yuanji suddenly said to Liu Zhenghui, who was accompanying him in the battle: "Mr. Liu, the Sui army is so powerful now that I may not be able to defeat it. Let's retreat."

    Liu Zhenghui was overjoyed and thought Li Yuanji had finally woken up.

    But Li Yuanji said: "This expedition is in vain. I really have no words to go back to the city to see Mr. Yuwen. It is better for Liu Gong to lead the army back."

    Liu Zhenghui was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Li Yuanji meant.

    "What does Mr. Zang mean?"

    Li Yuanji smiled and said: "I am going to Chang'an to plead guilty to my father and ask Liu Gong to guard the city. I will definitely bring reinforcements to Jinyang."

    After saying that, Li Yuanji was about to leave.

    Liu Zhenghui was shocked. He took Li Yuanji's horse rein and said, "My aunt Zanggong cannot leave. If my aunt Zanggong leaves now, the people in the city will be in chaos, and Jinyang City will no longer be able to defend it."

    Li Yuanji asked someone to hold Liu Zhenghui and said loudly: "The great talent of Mr. Liu, together with Mr. Yuwen and General Zhao, will surely make the city of Jinyang impregnable."

    After speaking, Li Yuanji and Dou Dan ignored the shouting Liu Zhenghui, left him in the central army, and led hundreds of forward troops to the southwest.

    This time Li Yuanji was very decisive. He hid his wife, concubines, and children among his soldiers in advance, so no one noticed.

    Li Yuanji fled south, and Liu Zhenghui, who stayed behind, looked at the mess and wanted to cry without tears.

    At this time, Liu Zhenghui had no choice but to order the entire army to return to Jinyang to garrison immediately.

    At this moment, to the north of the Tang Army, an army suddenly came out and headed straight for the Tang Army.

    It turned out that when the Tang army attacked, Liu Yunfang got the news and prepared to defeat the opponent in a field battle, so he rushed to the battlefield in advance.  Now that the Tang army is about to return and the cooked duck is about to fly, how can Liu Yunfang be willing?

    Therefore, Liu Yunfang ordered the army to attack and went straight to the Tang army.

    Liu Zhenghui was a civilian official and did not have much ability to command the army. Seeing that the entire army was attacked, he was unable to restrain the army.

    At this time, the Tang army was in chaos and was immediately defeated under the attack of the Sui army.  A group of remaining soldiers fled towards Jinyang City.

    Liu Zhenghui was surrounded by the army, unable to advance or retreat, and was finally captured by the Sui army.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
