Sui and Tang Dynasties: Beginning with Overlord Inheritance

Chapter 164 Wang Shichong's guess, could it be that the prince had expected it?

The atmosphere in the court hall suddenly became dignified.

No one knows what happened.

"Say it directly."

Yang Zhao said lightly.

"promise."

Li Cunxiao took the order.

They came back in a hurry after the Siping Mountain World War I.

"The army going south was ambushed by rebels in Siping Mountain, with a total of 70 people."

Reported by Li Cunxiaohui.

Hearing this, all the civil and military personnel present gasped.

The rebel army with a strength of 70 is quite large, and the army going south is only 40.

And it was still ambushed, the situation can be imagined.

Su Wei, Pei Yun and others are ready to go out and persuade Yang Zhao to send troops to rescue again.

"But the last general has successfully defeated the rebels according to His Highness's instructions, causing them a lot of losses."

Li Cunxiao continued.

As soon as these words came out, Su Wei and the others, who were about to open their mouths to speak, immediately swallowed the words.

"what?"

All the civil and military personnel present exclaimed in unison.

The rebel ambush with 70 troops was quickly resolved, and the losses were heavy.

"This"

Many civil and military officials looked at each other in blank dismay, unable to believe the news.

"Beheaded and captured the rebels, more than 30 people."

Shan Xiongxin then reported.

"hiss"

Everyone in the court gasped when they heard this number.

A total of 70 rebels can still wipe out 30 people. How exaggerated is this?

For a while, there was a lot of discussion in the court, and some people even suspected that the news was true or false.

"What about Your Majesty?"

Yang Zhao asked.

"This is His Majesty's order."

Li Cunxiao directly submitted the handbook.

Yang Zhao took it and handed it to Su Wei, motioning him to read it out.

Su Wei took the handwriting and read it in front of all civil and military personnel.

When he read it out, his expression was very strange.

Because the First World War in Sipingshan was over, Yang Guang would continue to go south and hand over the government affairs to Yang Zhao.

If there is no special seal for the emperor, Su Wei must doubt the authenticity of the handbook.

After reading it, Su Wei showed it to the rest of the civil servants.

In fact, Yang Zhao entrusted Su Wei to read it to prevent these civil and military people from thinking too much.

"Your Highness, what is going on?"

After digesting the news, Su Wei hurriedly asked.

This back and forth has completely confused them.

It is true that Yang Guang went south, and Yang Zhao indeed arranged for people to go south with the army going south.

It shows that Yang Zhao knew about the rebels' actions in advance. Isn't this using Yang Guang as a bait?
It's just this guess, Su Wei and the others couldn't believe it.

"Everyone."

Yang Zhao stood up and walked to the center of the court hall.

He told all about Siping Mountain this time.

After listening to it, all the civil and military people below were shocked and couldn't believe what they had just heard.

Yang Zhaozhen used Yang Guang as a bait to create the layout of Siping Mountain.

One can imagine how dangerous it is.

"Your Highness, this matter"

Su Wei hesitated.

He wanted to say that Yang Zhao's move was a little outrageous, but he swallowed it back.

Facts have proved that the battle of Sipingshan was successful, and Yang Guang also agreed to the matter.

"It's a pity that taking such a big risk only wiped out 30 rebels."

Wang Shichong sighed.

This is true, after all, the 30 troops are the strength of all the rebel alliances.

Even if it is lost, for each rebel army, it is only a loss of tens of thousands of troops.

These rebels still pose a certain threat to the Sui Dynasty.

"rustle."

At this moment, there were a few more footsteps.

Immediately afterwards, a messenger appeared in front of the main hall.

"Your Highness, there is a military report."

The orderly said out of breath.

"Enter."

Yang Zhao agreed.

The messenger hurried in and bowed to Yang Zhao.

"Your Highness, news came from Yangzhou that the rebels led by Li Zitong and Du Fuwei were severely beaten, and almost all of them were wiped out, and the leaders escaped."

The messenger had just finished his salute, and he couldn't wait to say.

When all the civil and military officials heard this, their faces were wonderful.

Then everyone looked at Yang Zhao with a shocked, even incredulous look.

Apparently Yang Zhao knew in advance that the rebels would be defeated, so instead of arranging reinforcements from all over the country to rescue them, they instead ambushed along the escape route of the defeated rebels.

This further drained the strength of the rebels and nearly wiped them out altogether.

In other words, the direction of development of all things was within Yang Zhao's expectation.

"Ah."

Faced with this information, Yang Zhao just responded.

After the messenger delivered the information, he left from the second hall.

"Your Highness is mighty."

After a long silence, all civil and military personnel shouted in unison.

The eyes of many people looking at Yang Zhao changed, becoming jealous and afraid.

They couldn't see through Yang Zhao, but Yang Zhao could see through them.

This fear was even deeper than when they faced Yang Guang.

Not a moment after the orderly left, there was another sound of footsteps.

Then I saw another messenger rushing to the main hall.

"Enter."

Without waiting for the messenger to salute, Yang Zhao said directly.

"See Your Highness."

After entering, the messenger took the lead in saluting.

Without him having to speak, everyone could tell from his expression that the news this time must be good news again.

"Could it be that the ambush arranged by His Highness is not only in the south?"

Wang Shichong couldn't help guessing.

"General Zhang Xutuo of Qi County successfully ambushed the rebels Xiao Mian, Wang Bo and others according to His Highness's instructions."

The messenger quickly reported.

"Xiao Xian's elite was almost wiped out, and Wang Bo died in the Jingzhou area."

The orderly made a special addition.

After hearing this, the expressions of all civil and military officials became even more exciting.

Even Xiao Mian, who was the most powerful in the rebel army, was severely injured.

Moreover, Wang Bo, the leader of the rebel army, died directly in Jingzhou.

This Wang Bo has a lot of prestige and momentum in the north.

His death will hit the momentum of the rebels hard.

For a moment, the entire court hall became silent.

These rebels distributed in the north and south had also caused Sui a headache before.

I really didn't expect that Yang Zhao could take advantage of this Sipingshan ambush to easily deal with these guys.

After this big victory, the rebels basically lost their vitality, and the threat to the Sui Dynasty dropped to an extreme.

For a while, it was difficult for all civil and military personnel to accept the news.

But Su Wei and the others never thought that these good news are not over yet.

The most critical good news is about to come.

Luo Cheng, who was dressed in armor and looked stern, had already walked to the front of the main hall.

"There is still a battle report?"

Seeing Luo Cheng, everyone exclaimed.

Because Luo Cheng is under Yang Zhao's command, and there is blood on the armor.

One can tell at a glance that it looks like it has experienced a war not long ago.

"Your Highness."

Luo Cheng stood in front of the main hall.

"Enter."

Yang Zhao agreed.

Luo Cheng walked in quickly, and bowed to Yang Zhao.
