I was so excited to write "Dancing Horse" that I couldn't bear to put down the pen.

But the visitor introduced himself as a messenger sent by Duke Tang, saying that Duke Tang had important matters to discuss with Mr. Wu Lang.

After all, Wu Ma agreed to become the director of the Awakening Mansion in front of Liu Wenjing. He would never do such a thing and then go back on his word as soon as he agreed.

You can probably guess what kind of dance horse Tang Gong asked to discuss with the dancing horse. It was probably related to the Turks' siege of the city.

Historically, Li Yuan was very bad at dealing with this wave of Turks. He made two insidious moves recorded in history and made the Turks return without success.

The dancing horse is ready. If Li Yuan asks him for advice, he will offer these two sinister tricks with both hands to see what Mr. Tang's expression looks like.

I almost forgot that in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, you could not call anyone "adult" casually.

Although Wu Ma, who is slightly obsessive-compulsive, really wants to write down all the records in front of him, witnessing major historical events is something that enthusiasts of Sui and Tang history will never want to miss. After all, there is no such store after passing this village.

Dancing Horse thought for a moment and wrote in the collection of experimental records:

“As a researcher who is determined to dedicate his life experience to scientific experiments, there is nothing he hates most than having his flowing train of thought interrupted, ongoing major research being suspended, and endless miscellaneous meetings.

However, when you live in the world and become a very important person, you will have to face these troublesome disturbances, have to spare precious energy to deal with the so-called major and important problems in the world, and have to show that you do not want to show up in the world.

Amazing talent in front of the world.

Ordinary people always lament that there are very few people with amazing talents, but they don’t know that truly talented people will never bother to show even the slightest bit of their talent.

Talking about this major and exciting experiment that has been initially completed, although the prophet really wants to make a complete record of the experiment, he must first deal with the urgent matter - not to mention that the records recorded by the prophet are not serialized novels, and there is no way to make a complete record of the experiment.

There is no need to bother with reminders, and there is no reward for generous rewards. There is no rush to achieve success in one moment, so it can be left for later days and done slowly."

After I finished writing, I was very satisfied.

…

On May 17, the 13th year of Daye, the southeast tower of the inner city of Taiyuan County had become a wartime command post.

There was silence in the hall.

Li Yuan is sitting in the main seat, with Li Shimin and Pei Ji on his left and right hands.

After Pei Ji was Liu Wenjing, who was dressed in blood and looked pale.

Afterwards, there were a group of generals who followed Li Yuan to raise the banner - Changsun Shunde, Liu Hongji, Dou Cong, Chai Shao, Tang Jian, Yin Kaishan, Liu Shilong, Liu Zhenghui, Zhao Wenke, Samurai Tong, Zhang Pinggao, Li Sixing, Li Gao

Qian, Xu Shixu.

Everyone gathered here to plan a plan to defeat the enemy①.

At this time, probably no one expected that all seventeen [Taiyuan Yuanmou Heroes] who had been grandly awarded by Li Yuan, who had become Emperor Gaozu of the Tang Dynasty in the first year of Wude, would be present.

Several of them even became famous throughout the ages as the "Twenty-Four Heroes of Lingyan Pavilion".

Of course, at this time, Li Yuan was not in the mood to wonder which of the people here would follow him smoothly, to the place where every rebel wanted to go, where there was a golden and shining throne.

chair place.

Li Yuan's thoughts were all on the tens of thousands of Turkic troops roaring in from the north.

I have to admit that the Turks fought an unexpected blitzkrieg. The dark army entered from the north gate of Taiyuan Waiguo City and came out from the east gate. They were uniform, with a dragon on the left and a rainbow on the right, showing off their power as if they were nothing.

In the realm of human beings, the future Emperor Gaozu of the Tang Dynasty was not taken seriously at all.

It doesn't matter, maybe Li Yuan can endure it for a while.

As long as you read more history books, you will find that Li Yuan is a very tolerant person.

Just talking about the major historical event of Jinyang's uprising, we can see from five angles that Li Gaozu's ninja skills were unparalleled.

First, at the end of the Sui Dynasty, the world was in chaos, and all the heroes came together (Liu Wenjing said: There are thousands of big thieves in Lianzhou County and small thieves in Zeshan). Yang Guangping’s rebellion turned to Gu Dong instead of the West. At this time, he took advantage of the chaos

What a great time to flag.

Li Yuan endured it. From the seventh year of Daye to the thirteenth year of Daye, Liu Wuzhou, Zhai Rang, Li Mi, Liang Shidu, Guo Zihe, Xue Ju, Li Gui, and Xiao Mian set off one wave of rebellion after another. Li Yuan endured five

Year.

Secondly, sitting in a good place like Taiyuan - one is surrounded by mountains, with a basin in the middle, and is protected by danger, and is uniquely blessed by nature; the other is that one county of Taiyuan controls the four counties of Xihe, Loufan, Mayi and Yanmen, and can respond to a hundred responses;

The third is that there are Turks disturbing the people in the north, many strong men are entering the pass, there are sufficient soldiers, and there is no shortage of heroes and talents; the fourth is that more than 600 kilometers to the south is Kyoto. If you go a few more steps to the south, you can go straight to Huanglong by accident.

More importantly, advancing from Taiyuan to Kyoto is completely in line with the iron law of unification from north to south in all dynasties in Chinese history. The dynasty that completed unification from south to north has not yet been born.

Li Yuan held back.

In the eleventh year of Daye's reign, he was appointed as Shanxi's arrest envoy. In Daye's 12th year, he was appointed as Taiyuan Dao's pacification ambassador. He stayed in Taiyuan and endured it for more than two years.

Third, Li Shimin, Liu Wenjing, Pei Ji, Tang Jian, Dou Kang, Xia Houduan, Yu Wenshi and others took turns to persuade the rebels, and their son's friends and subordinates all went into battle.

Li Yuan held back.

Counting from the secret conversation with Yuwen Shiji in the ninth year of Daye, I endured it for four years.

Fourth, he slept with Yang Guang's woman, and later developed into long-term and stable sleep. He did such a treasonous act and let Yang Guang know that a disaster was coming, otherwise he would have lost his head, so Li Yuan still held back.

.

Fifth, at the end of the twelfth year of Daye, Yang Guang almost took off the hat of Li Yuan, who was left behind in Taiyuan, and escorted him to Jiangdu for questioning because of his ineffectiveness in fighting against the Eastern Turks. He would have suffocated to death if he didn't poop his buttocks.

Li Yuan held back again.

Looking back further, in the ninth year of Daye's reign, Li Yuan was suspected by Yang Guang because of his "experience at home and abroad, his kindness, and his association with heroes."

Yang Guangzheng recruited Li Yuan, but Li Yuan excused himself from illness. Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty actually said, "How come he didn't die of illness?"

This was a very dangerous signal - Yang Guang almost strangled Li Yuan to death with his own hands with a rope.

Li Yuan endured it again, and he endured it to a high level and a new level.

He began to degenerate rapidly, indulged in drinking and debauchery all day long (of course, it was probably because of his natural instinct), and accepted bribes on a large scale. In more than a year, he degenerated from a capable and honest minister with both ability and political integrity into a greedy loser.

, finally gave Yang Guang peace of mind.

Li Yuan is by no means timid.

Li Yuan knew that if his actions were written down in the history books, future generations would judge him as lacking ambition, being timid, and being incompetent.

Li Yuan would sneer disdainfully at them.

Anyone who uses these negative words to conclude his coffin is a fool.

And the trait of being kind-tolerant, being able to endure and always endure will definitely help Li Yuan achieve his greatest career.

Because rebellion is not about playing house, or inviting guests to dinner warmly.

In particular, Li Yuan's rebellion is completely different from those bandits and bandits Zhai, Li Zitong, Du Fuwei and others——

Li Yuan was a member of the feudal frontier, a prominent family in Longxi, a wealthy family, and a wealthy family for generations.

Going back to ancient times, the ancestors of the old Li family were Zhuanxu and Gaoyang.

In the Spring and Autumn Period it was Li Er.

During the Western Han Dynasty, it was Li Guang, a famous general who fought against the Hungarians.

Looking closer, the seventh-generation ancestor of the Lao Li family is Li Hao, the emperor of Xiliang, the sixth-generation ancestor is Li Xin, the queen of Xiliang, the fifth-generation ancestor Li Chong'er is the prefect of Hongnong in the Northern Wei Dynasty, the great ancestor Li Xi is the general of Jinmen in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and the great-grandfather Li Tianxi was an important official in the Northern Wei Dynasty.

Further back, Li Yuan's grandfather, Li Hu, was a member of the famous "Eight Pillar Kingdom" of the Western Wei Dynasty in history. He was an official to the rank of Taiwei, and was the Minister of Zuopushe.

Li Yuan's father, Li Bing, was the general manager of Anzhou in the Northern Zhou Dynasty and a general of the Zhu Kingdom.

Such a bloodline is simply extremely noble. If you look through the entire Sui Dynasty from east to west and south to north, you will not be able to find another family. If you open a history book and read it from front to back, you will not be able to find another family.

Rare bloodline and noble birth have advantages and disadvantages.

The good thing is that when Comrade Li Yuan raises his arms, he can easily respond to a hundred responses (this was indeed the case later when Li Yuan entered the customs).

The disadvantage is that it is easy for a large tree to attract the wind and kill the first bird.

Therefore, the timing of Li Yuan's rebellion must be carefully grasped.

The counterattack was too early. The most likely situation was that Emperor Sui Yang would put down all the rebels first and concentrate his firepower on Li Yuan——

Yang Xuangan, who rebelled in the ninth year of his reign, learned a bloody lesson.

You must know that Yang Xuangan was also from a wealthy and distinguished family. He was the son of Yang Su, the founder of the Sui Dynasty. He was the highest official in the State of Zhuguo and the Minister of Rites. He had immeasurable influence on the entire Sui Dynasty.

After Yang Xuangan raised the flag, "thousands of people gathered in response", and the army soon grew to more than 100,000 people. When they reached Luoyang, the eastern capital, more than 40 nobles and high-ranking officials' sons came out of the city to surrender.

Yang Xuangan also chose a good time to rebel - when Yang Guang led a million-strong army to conquer Goryeo.

At that time, Yang Guang had basically started the crazy mode. A large number of people in Shandong and other places raised flags and screamed in rebellion. Yang Guang ignored them at all and was determined to bring down Goryeo.

But when he heard about Yang Xuangan's rebellion, Yang Guang immediately understood that this guy was capable of shaking the foundation of the country, so he quickly took medicine to cure his madness, led his army back from Goryeo, and completely wiped out Yang Xuangan in less than a month.

All in all, Yang Xuangan is definitely a negative teaching material worthy of serious study by Li Yuan.

What if Li Yuan counterattacked too late?

Not good.

It is very likely that he had to follow Li Mi Zhai and let these grassroots eat leftovers.

Make a decision and then act.

The thirteenth year of Daye is the best time and the best opportunity.
