Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The greatest misfortune in life is not cherishing it when you have it, and regretting it when you lose it.  If there was someone who sold regret medicine in this world, Li Yuan would definitely buy one for himself so that he could go back to a year ago and be a good Sui minister.

    What¡¯s wrong with being a Sui minister?

    "At least you won't be surrounded by hundreds of thousands of troops in Guanzhong, and you won't be frightened day and night; nor will you be fighting wits and courage with wealthy families all day long, and have to be coy when you want something.  Although he is the master of Guanzhong, he cannot even control his own destiny.

    But after all, there is no medicine for regret in the world, and rebellion is a one-way street, so no matter how regretful Li Yuan is, he has to grit his teeth and cry.

    There is no comparison between Li Yuan today and Li Yuan in history.

    In history, Li Yuan entered Guanzhong from Hedong. With the flag raised, the world surrendered. In less than half a year, one-third of the world had surrendered to Li Tang.  In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, apart from a few limited hard battles, Li Yuan could be said to be a conqueror without fighting.

    There is no denying the abilities of Li Yuan and Li Shimin, but Liu Xiu and Zhu Yuanzhang could have done it in Li Tang's situation, but not necessarily vice versa.

    No one can win the favor of the world like Li Yuan.

    At that time, Li Yuan was so full of ambition that he could write: "The holy virtues unite the heaven and the earth, and they can be seen in five consecutive places. The gentle breeze blows the people of the world, and everyone feasts together."

    But now Li Yuan has been in trouble since he raised his army.  First they lost King Dai, and then they lost Hedong.  Qu Tu led troops to garrison Tongguan, Huang Mingzheng pointed directly at Weibei, and Liang Monan crossed Hanzhong to the south.  The entire Guanzhong is surrounded by enemies on all sides.  Hundreds of thousands of troops pressed down, making Li Yuan trembling and unable to move.

    Without the Jinyang base camp, Li Yuan has no foundation at all. All he can rely on is the Guanlong family that is rooted in Guanzhong.  For this reason, Li Yuan had to put down his dignity and ask for support from the Guanlong family in a humble manner.

    Soldiers, food, supplies, ordnance The Guanlong family had all their money under Li Yuan.  But the Guanlong family did not run a charity. The reason why they funded Li Yuan was because of political demands.

    ??The mouth is short when eating people, and the hands are short when taking people.

    In order to prevent the Guanlong family from abandoning him, Li Yuan provided sufficient benefits to the Guanlong family.  Not only did the officials and generals in the army make full use of people from Guanlong, they also allowed the Guanlong family to annex land, manipulate the market, hoard and plunder.

    The entire Guanzhong has almost become the back garden of the Guanlong family.

    Li Shimin suggested to Li Yuan several times that he should not be so indulgent in controlling the people in Guanlong and allow these people to do whatever they want and destroy the interests of the country. If things go on like this, the generals will not be able to do anything.

    Li Yuan also understands this truth, but there is nothing he can do.

    "Gu Ruorangfan has a little solution, so why bother to do this. Don't tell me these words. Tell Qu Tutong, tell Xue Ju, tell Liang Mo and see if they can let our father and son go."&  #29306&#22914&#32&#116&#105&#97&#110&#108&#97&#105&#120&#119&#46&#99&#111&#109&#32&#29306&#22914

    Now Li Yuan not only cannot offend the Guanlong family, but also has to support them.

    Li Yuan also wants to take back power from the Guanlong family, but not now.  At least the surrounding threats must be eliminated. Otherwise, if the Guanlong family has just taken action, it will be a question of whether Li Tang can survive.

    In order to please the Guanlong family, Li Yuan appointed Dou Wei as the internal historian, Dou Kang as Nayan, Dugu Huaien as the minister of the Ministry of Industry, Xiao Yu who fled to Chang'an as the internal historian, Xiao Zao as the minister of punishment, and Li Gang as the minister of internal history.  Dou Jing is the Minister of the Ministry of Rites and the Minister of the Ministry of Husbandry.

    The Dou family has one family, two prime ministers, three ministers, and five or six generals and generals of Wei. It can be said that it has overwhelming power for a while.

    Li Yuan even obtained Dou Kang's daughter for Li Shimin as his official wife.

    Relying on repeated concessions to the Guanlong family, Li Yuan reluctantly took the position.

    But surrounded by strong enemies, there are some things that cannot be settled internally or externally.

    At the beginning of May in the twelfth year of Daye, Xue Ju, who was west of Guanzhong, finally couldn't bear the desire for Guanzhong and personally led an army of 60,000 to conquer Li Tang.

    In fact, Xue Ju attacked Guanzhong twice before, but neither of them succeeded.  In order to win Guanzhong this time, he came with all his troops, determined to conquer Guanzhong in one fell swoop.

    The territory of Guanxi is vast and sparsely populated, and the strength of Western Qin is far weaker than that of Li Tang.  Sixty thousand troops were already the limit that Xue Ju could muster, and there were also a large number of attached Qiang soldiers among them.

    But Xue Ju was full of momentum and looked sure to win.

    In Xue Ju¡¯s view, that old boy Li Yuan was able to win Guanzhong just because of good luck. On the battlefield, the tiger and wolf divisions under his command were not comparable to Li Yuan¡¯s.

    The soldiers of Longyou live together with the Qiang and Hu, and have always been fierce.  In Xue Ju's hands, he has another elite cavalry that comes and goes like the wind, so he is certainly qualified.I look down on Li Yuan.

    Xue Ju¡¯s home base is in Jincheng County. He was originally from a wealthy family in Jincheng and the local emperor.  After that, Xue Ju conquered Longyou, Tianshui and other places, captured all of Guanxi, and moved the capital to Tianshui County to govern Shanggui.  If his son Xue Rengao hadn't been defeated by Li Shimin last time because he was not good enough, he would have roared down and entered Guanzhong.  Si minus 7 5zw.c o m Si

    This time, Xue Ju used his main force to attack Yuanzhou in the north.

    When it comes to using troops, Xue Ju is really good at it.  The Tang army had few troops in Yuanzhou City, and Yuanzhou City was quickly defeated by Xue Ju's main force.

    After conquering Yuanzhou, Xue Ju continued to advance eastward, directly attacked the city of Jingzhou, and captured the city of Xi'an (now Jingchuan County, Gansu Province), the gateway to Jingzhou.

    Xue Ju stationed troops to analyze Qicheng City, and led the main force to surround Jingzhou City and attack day and night.

    Jingzhou defender Liu Gan was defeated and waited for reinforcements.

    Xue Ju¡¯s advance eastward would cost Li Yuan his life.

    Where is Jingzhou? This is the northwest gateway to Guanzhong.  After passing Jingzhou, you can go deep into the Guanzhong Plain.  The Guanzhong Plain is wide open. Xue Ju's cavalry went south along the Jingshui River and could reach the city of Chang'an in less than three to five days.

    And even if Chang'an cannot be taken, Xue Ju's cavalry is wreaking havoc in Guanzhong. The 800-mile fertile Guanzhong may also be wreaked havoc.

    So when the news reached Chang'an, everyone was so frightened that they became speechless.

    The shock of this incident was even more terrifying than when Huang Mingyuan conquered Taiyuan.

    For the Guanlong family, although Hedong is good, it is not as good as Guanzhong after all.  It was Li Yuan who lost Hedong, not them.  Moreover, after Li Yuan lost Hedong, he relied more on them and became more obedient.  This one lost in Hedong is actually pretty good.

    But Jingzhou is different.

    Guanzhong is the hometown of the Guanlong family and has always been regarded as their private territory.  If the flames of war come here, it will be a gnashing of teeth for them.

    " Moreover, Xue Ju and his son have always been violent, which is not a good thing.  Mi He Mi

    Xue Ju "every time he broke the formation, he killed all the soldiers he captured. Most of the people he killed had their tongues cut off and their noses cut off, or they were smashed with hammers." Xue Rengao "he killed many people."  The Guan Long disciples did not want to live under the hands of Xue Ju and his son.

    Therefore, Jingzhou must be rescued and the enemy must be kept outside the country.

    This is the unanimous request of the entire Guanlong family.

    Li Yuan¡¯s request is similar to that of the Guanlong family.  He didn't even dare to let Xue Ju enter the Guanzhong Plain, otherwise the entire Li Tang situation would collapse
