Chapter 26 Battle [Month 1/2]
In the spring of the 16th year of Daye, on February 2nd, the dragon raised its head.
At the order of Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, all 100,000 Xiaoguo troops were dispatched, attacking from all sides, and divided into three groups to attack Li Yutong in the north, Shen Faxing in the south, and Du Fuwei in the Jianghuai in the west.
The Lang General of Yingyang Wei and the Grandson Yang Neng followed the Western Army to fight against the Du Fuwei power in the west.
Kou Zhong, the left side general of Yingyang Guard, led 1,500 Yingyang Guards, and followed the Northern Army to fight against Li Yutong's forces in the north.
The remaining thousand Yingyang guards, led by Xu Ziling, took the Southern Army to fight against the Shen Faxing forces in the south.
At the top of the city of Jiangdu and under the imperial chariot, Emperor Yang Guang and Emperor Teacher Chen Hengzhi stood side by side, watching the large army slowly leave their sight.
Chen Hengzhi joked: "The emperor is really willing to let the army go to war. If there is any good or bad, then..."
Yang Guang smiled with his beard and looked radiant, and said, "The eagle must fly by itself, and the Lone King cannot take care of him for the rest of his life.
Besides, when the Lone King was twenty years old, he led the army to destroy Chen. As a royal family, he is now seventeen years old, and it is time for him to share the worries of the country."
Chen Hengzhi pondered silently. After a long time, he said leisurely: "Is the Lord paving the way for you?"
Yang Guang glared and glared at him. It was a taboo to interfere in the royal family's establishment as a crown prince. Then, he felt relieved when he thought of Chen Hengzhi's identity as an immortal and his terrifying martial arts.
He sighed and whispered: "I think you can see that the Lone King is suffering from all kinds of diseases, and there is not much time left. I got the help of my husband a few years ago and asked Master Sun to see it, but there is no medicine and the gods cannot save him.
The man is pure and kind to others. This is the appearance of a benevolent king, and the lonely king is very satisfied.
However, the Lone King was afraid that he would be too kind and ignorant of the world, so he sent him into the army to train, kill people and train his courage."
Yang Guang is fifty-two years old this year and is already in the year of knowing destiny.
He had not practiced martial arts, and his congenital essence was lost prematurely, his indulgence was excessive, and his kidney was weak. In addition, his early battles damaged his vitality. As a result, he was over fifty years old, and he was exhausted and in danger.
Chen Hengzhi remained silent, knowing that what Yang Guang said was the truth. In private, the medicine king Sun Simiao once told him that with Yang Guang's body, he could last for at most two or three years. If something happens, he may die on the spot.
After a long time, Chen Hengzhi comforted him: "Neng'er is talented and has a very high talent in martial arts. With his innate real human realm, as long as he is cautious, he will not be in danger. Moreover, Du Fuwei's martial arts are only at the peak of acquired nature. It is easy for him to deal with him."
Chen Hengzhi, the great disciple, Yang Lei's martial arts talent is one-line worse than that of the Double Dragon, but he is also among the best in the world. In addition, he practiced hard and with the help of the entire royal family, he finally went from acquired to innate before the New Year and advanced to innate master.
Yang Guang nodded: "I hope he can return safely."
At this moment, he did not have a trace of emperor's majesty, but only his grandfather's kindness and favor for his grandson.
Of course, saying that, Yang Guang clapped his face and sent the eunuch master with the highest martial arts skills around him to secretly follow him and protect the safety of the crown prince.
After a long time, the army had completely disappeared from sight. Chen Hengzhi spoke out: "Master, go back to the palace. The spring is cold, take care of the dragon body."
Yang Guang turned around reluctantly and said, "Well, let's go back to the palace!"
…………
When the Great Sui Dynasty set out, the world looked at each other.
From the beginning of the fourteenth year of Daye to the present, after more than a year of chaotic wars, the whole world is divided into about ten forces, large and small.
The Li family occupied Longxi, Guanzhong, Wang Shichong, the eastern capital was Luoyang, Dou Jiande, Liu Wuzhou, Liang Shidu, Gaokaidao, Bashu Jiehui to the west, Li Mi in Wagang Village in the Central Plains, Xiao Xian in the south of Jiangnan, Lin Shihong in Jiangnan, and Song family occupied Lingnan, Guangdong and Guangxi.
In the entire Jiangdong area, in addition to the Jiangdu Yangzhou where the Great Sui Dynasty is located, there are also small forces such as Wang Bo, Fu Gongyou, Du Fuwei, Li Yutong, and Chen Faxing.
Yang Guang initially ignored the many small forces around him, but endured it. At this time, once it broke out, it was shocking and wanted to sweep across the Jiangdong area with thunder.
Li Yutong in the north, Chen Faxing in the south, and Du Fuwei in the west, each occupied only half of the prefectures and several counties, with limited territory and limited military strength.
Faced with the sudden attack of the Sui army, they had lost their defense before they could organize effective defense and retreated step by step.
In the 16th year of Daye, in early March, Li Yutong, Shen Faxing, Du Fuwei was defeated, and the army returned triumphantly.
In April, the Sui army conquered Wagang Village.
In June, Li Mi's forces in Wagang Village were destroyed, King Shichong of Luoyang surrendered, and King Bo of Shandong surrendered.
In October, the Sui army conquered Jiangnan and fought against Xiao Xian and Lin Shihong at the same time.
In the spring of the 17th year of Daye, the Sui Dynasty recovered Jiangnan and liberated most of the mountains and rivers.
[Records of later historical records: In the 17th year of Emperor Taizong of Sui Dynasty, Taisun Neng led Yingyangwei to fight on the battlefield and was invincible. He made great achievements in regaining the territory and laid the groundwork for the revival of the Great Sui Dynasty.
The Eagle Guard is eight feet tall, with heavy armor and heavy swords. It comes and goes like flying, inseparable swords and guns, invades water and fire, has great power, and is also fierce and fearless.
There is no enemy on the battlefield, and each one is a person with high martial arts skills.]
When later historians saw this, they were confused!
He is still powerful, why don’t he say that the gods descend to earth?
We all know that Emperor Wu Yang made great contributions in the battle to regain mountains and rivers, but bragging is not like this, right?
Do you treat us all as fools?
…………
During the Sui army's conquest, the north was not idle.
Li Shimin, the second son of the Li family, opened a recruitment hall, recruited heroes from all over the world, formed the Tiance Mansion, led troops to fight against Xue Ju, Liu Wuzhou, Dou Jiande and other forces.
In the spring of the 17th year of Daye, Li Yuan abolished Emperor Gong of Sui (formerly King Yang You) and proclaimed himself emperor in Chang'an. The country was named Tang, established Yuan Wude, and established the capital of Chang'an. He was Emperor Gaozu of Tang.
By the summer of the 17th year of Daye, the power of the world gradually became clear. The Sui Dynasty occupied the Central Plains, Jiangnan and Jiangdong; the Li Tang occupied the Jiangbei and Guanlong areas.
The remaining small and medium-sized forces were annexed one after another, and the ice disappeared and collapsed.
Among the forces in the world, the Li family was supported by Buddhism, and the ones belonging to the Great Sui Dynasty were the Demon Sect headed by Shi Zhixuan and the secret Taoist Sect.
This dispute over the world is both a struggle between the power of aristocratic families and a struggle between Taoism.
…………
That day, Chen Hengzhi issued an ultimatum. Shi Zhixuan did not dare to neglect and immediately ordered people to contact the other two factions of the Demon Sect.
The two schools of the Demon Sect are six paths, namely the female *** organization Yin Gui Sect, the killer organizes Butian Pavilion, the tomb robber gang, the evil Taoist path, the merchant alliance Tianlian Sect, the Yin-Yang dual cultivation Taoist teaching, the Long Yang cuts sleeves and destroys love, the alliance and the demon-like Taoist path, and the calligraphy and painting technician Huajian Sect.
They represent the ranks of all the best and most important things in society and are incompatible with the mainstream. It is no wonder that they were defeated by Buddhism.
After receiving Shi Zhixuan's invitation, except for the demon general Zhao Deyan, the other sects came to meet.
They don't want to come, they don't want to come, but they have to come.
Shi Zhixuan's invitation letter mentioned the ultimatum of the emperor's teacher Chen Hengzhi.
For this imperial master who is invincible in the world, they dare not neglect. For their own inheritance and life, they had to be invited to attend the Holy Gate Conference held by Shi Zhixuan.
