Chapter five hundred and eighty seventh mass indignation
Luo Zhaoyun learned about the rebellion of the northwest king. Liu Wuzhou, Li Gui, Xue Ju, Liang Shidu, Guo Zihe and others were all among the rebellion of the late Sui Dynasty. They were relatively powerful and belonged to the second-tier ranks, and were not comparable to those bandits and thieves gathered to rebel.
The anti-kings at the front line must be Li Mi, Dou Jiande, Du Fuwei, Xiao Xian and others. The most special ones are Wang Shichong and Li Yuan. Because in history, both of them have puppet emperors in their hands to control public opinion, they have greater power.
"These people have raised their troops, and the northwest is in chaos, and Li Yuan is also getting faster." Luo Zhaoyun thought in his mind. According to historical nodes, the momentum of this uprising was two years ahead of history.
However, Luo Zhaoyun was not surprised, but the date of history was originally vague, and later generations could not be so accurate in their thinking. It was possible two years earlier or two years later.
Luo Zhaoyun looked at the map and thought about the changes in the situation. Next, how to promote the peasant war at the end of the Sui Dynasty and where to fight for the world.
The biggest potential opponent is Li Yuan. Luo Zhaoyun knew in his heart that these local heroes would not be able to become a climate in the end, but Li Yuan was different. The Li family was powerful, and half of the Guanlong nobles might be standing there. At that time, Li Yuan would sit in the temple and stabilize the rear, and send Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin to fight, attack cities and capture territory, which would have more advantages than the Luo family.
This is Luo Zhaoyun's shortcomings. At his young age, if he is in charge, his prestige is temporarily insufficient, and it is difficult for many old clans to submit. If Luo Yi is in charge, he is not a material for governing the country. He has insufficient experience in handling government affairs and court affairs, and his personality is too strong, and he cannot control a group of civil and military officials.
That is not a forceful division, but requires the emperor's mind skills, which Luo Yi will definitely not be able to do.
Luo Zhaoyun thought repeatedly and felt that the six northeastern counties should be firmly controlled, as the foundation of the Luo family, his father Luo Yi could hold on, supplemented by Wen Boyan, Gao Shilian, Changsun Shunde and others, and could still handle the civil affairs of several counties well.
In this way, you can free up your hands and go out to lead troops to fight against Li Yuan, Li Shimin, and other heroes.
In any case, the rear cannot be in chaos, otherwise the morale of the army will be unstable and the wise men and advisers will not see the future, so they will naturally leave him.
………
There were many manifestos posted in Jinyang City, and the news that the current emperor was about to conquer Liaodong for the fourth time and eliminate Goguryeo Kingdom spread rapidly in the streets and alleys, like a whirlwind, causing the public to complain.
The city seemed to be in full swing, rushing around and telling each other, crying, and panic. Some even more, cursing the court and indignant.
"The bullshit emperor, can you let others survive? After three expeditions to Liaodong, no less than millions of people died."
"There is no way to survive. The old woman's child is only young and is going to die again. Poor his father, elder brother, and second brothers are all killed in battle, and only this one is left. How can the old woman live in the future!" An old woman burst into tears.
"The men all went to Liaodong to fight wars. Who will plow the fields and farm? How can the family and the young live?" Many women were also complaining.
"He doesn't let us live, so we can just turn it over. He won't be the Sui people anymore, and he will join the rebels and resist the tyrants."
"Luo Cheng, a dog, still wants to work hard for the dog emperor, regardless of life or death. The people used to think of his reputation, which was simply aiding the evil! "A man sent by Li Er was mixed in the crowd, waiting for an opportunity to provoke him, and directly smeared Luo Cheng on his body. This could arouse public anger, and he was also hostile to Luo Cheng, making his reputation bad.
Soon, another manifesto was posted, and it turned out that it was news that Liu Wuzhou, Xue Ju, Li Gui and others rebelled one after another.
This time, the rebellion in the city has become even louder.
"It's better to join the army of Liu Wuzhou in Mayi than to die in Liaodong."
"Mayi is outside the pass, so it is better to go to Dou Jiande's army."
"Or we will also kill the government and raise an army in Jinyang." Some strong man was indignant.
At this time, there was a child caregiver installed by the Li family in the crowd, and they began to play their part again to guide public opinion: "Don't worry, everyone, I believe that the Tang Dynasty Guild will give you an explanation. He is as close to the people as a child, and he will help the people, and I believe he will protect everyone."
"The Tang Dynasty Guild protects the peace of the people, and may not comply with such manifesto."
"Please believe in Duke Tang—"
The people follow the crowd and follow the crowd. They are easily controlled and public opinion-oriented, and become expecting Duke Tang to make decisions for them.
In a corner of the streets and alleys in Chengmen Square, Li Er, Tang Jian and Liu Wenjing stood there, looking at the reaction of the people, and smiled slightly and said: "People's hearts are controllable, and some means are needed. As long as they are beneficial to the people in the end, they are beneficial to the world. In fact, the process is black or white, and it doesn't matter."
Tang Jian and Liu Wenjing were both nodding, secretly admiring the second young master's skills, learning and applying them, not limited to the knowledge in scriptures and books, but it is a bit dark-hearted and easier to do big things.
At this time, a guard came over and reported to Li Shimin: "The second son, Wang Wei and Gao Junya, went to the Duke's Mansion together, with a nervous look on his face. He seemed to have something to do. The Duke asked the second son to go back."
"They may also have received news that Liu Wuzhou rebelled and was sending troops to Yanmen Pass. The next target is my Taiyuan County." Li Shimin's heart moved and turned back to the Duke of Tang's mansion.
Sure enough, Wang Wei and Gao Junya's visit were to invite Li Yuan to send troops to assist Yanmen County Chief Chen Xiaoyi and Hu Ben General Wang Zhibian to join forces to fight against Liu Wuzhou.
Gao Junya said: "Duke of Tang, Liu Wuzhou, now rebelling against the Sui Dynasty in Mayi, is a ruthless rebellion. Moreover, the Turks in the north are connected to the Turks, and for their own selfish interests, they want to lead Turkic soldiers into the Central Plains. They have now conquered the counties around Mayi County, with a force of 70,000 to 80,000, plus tens of thousands of Turkic cavalry to assist. I am afraid that Chen Xiaoyi, Wang Zhibian and the two generals of Wang Zhibian will find it difficult to encircle and suppress Liu Wuzhou's troops. If the Duke of Guo sent troops, they might be able to eliminate Liu Wuzhou's rebellion."
Li Yuan sneered in his heart, but showed a look of danger on the surface. He kept shaking his head and said, "The troops in Taiyuan County are only tens of thousands, and the guards here are barely enough. If you want to go to Yanmen, then go out of the pass to fight, and die outside the pass, I am afraid these soldiers will not serve you. You must have heard in the city these days that the people are about to reach the point of civil unrest, and leave your hometown to die, and no one is willing to do it."
Wang Wei said aggressively: "Then you can't sit idly by and watch Liu Wuzhou be powerful outside the pass and conquered Yanmen County. His next goal is our Taiyuan County, Duke of Tang. As the saying goes, he eats the king's fortune and shares his worries. As the comforting envoy of Hedong, aren't you worried about the foundation of the court, let Liu Wuzhou become bigger and stronger, and colludes with the Turks into the pass to harm the Central Plains?"
"It's more than one Liu Wuzhou, Li Gui, Xue Ju, Liang Shidu, Guo Zihe and others have raised their troops. I, Li Yuan, can I suppress how many?" Li Yuan's tone also turned cold.
"Duke Tang, what do you mean? Do you insist on not sending troops?"
Just then, Li Shimin, Liu Wenjing and others walked outside the hall. Liu Wenjing shouted loudly: "Duke Tang, we have the latest evidence. Someone tried to collude with Liu Wuzhou and the Turks, rebel against the court, and report in a secret manner!"
