Sui and Tang Dynasties: Beginning with Overlord Inheritance

Chapter 72 Li Yuan: How could Yang Zhao have the strength to defeat the Wan Sui army?

Bingzhou, Li's family in Taiyuan.

Early in the morning, Li Jiancheng rushed back to Tang Guogong's mansion from outside in a hurry.

"Where is Mr. Tang?"

Seeing the guards coming up, Li Jiancheng asked in a deep voice.

"Duke Tang just woke up."

The guard replied.

"Ah."

Li Jiancheng nodded and went straight to the study.

Because after Li Yuan woke up, he would stay in the study.

When he arrived at the study, Li Jiancheng broke in without even knocking on the door.

"What is the system?"

Li Yuan was startled at first, but when he saw that it was Li Jiancheng, he immediately scolded him.

"Father, the child has something important to report."

Li Jiancheng said out of breath.

"What's the matter?"

Li Yuan suppressed his anger and asked.

"There is movement over there, His Majesty."

Li Jiancheng said.

"What movement?"

Li Yuan frowned.

"The advance expedition has already begun to dispatch the army."

Li Jiancheng replied.

"really?"

Li Yuan was shocked, and hurriedly asked.

"Children dare not lie."

Li Jiancheng nodded.

"Strange, why did you suddenly transfer troops?"

Li Yuan was puzzled.

"Father, there is another message."

Li Jiancheng continued.

"Say."

Li Yuan nodded.

"Not long ago, the Sui army suffered a big defeat at Jindiguan. I heard that it was a bandit from somewhere."

Li Jiancheng said.

"Bandits?"

Li Yuan looked strange.

A group of bandits can make waves, but the Sui army is all regular troops.

"Did you hear me wrong?"

Li Yuan questioned the authenticity of this matter.

"It's absolutely true, and His Majesty deliberately suppressed the news."

Li Jiancheng said with a wry smile.

If not, Bingzhou would have known about it a long time ago, and the details are still unclear.

Otherwise, Li Jiancheng would be sure that these so-called bandits were the Wagang Village headed by Yang Zhao.

"How could a group of bandits have no equipment to defeat the Sui army?"

Li Yuan felt something strange.

"And I heard that their leader is called Yang Zhao. Could it be Wagang Village?"

Li Jiancheng said hesitantly.

For the Li family, the name Yang Zhao is like a taboo.

"Jiangcheng, you are too sensitive."

Li Yuan shook his head.

"This Yang Zhao is not the same person as the Yang Zhao who kicked out the house for his father, and how could Wagangzhai win Jindi Pass?"

He said lightly.

No one in the world can form a force without the support of background and family.

This is the basis for Li Yuan to say these words.

"Hopefully not."

Li Jiancheng murmured.

He also felt that it was unlikely, but there was an ominous premonition in his heart.

"How many troops did you have in the battle at Jindi Pass?"

Li Yuan asked.

"Back to father, I heard that there are [-] troops in the Sui army. The commander was originally the backer of the mountain king, and later replaced by Yuwen Jackie."

Li Jiancheng replied truthfully.

"No wonder the defeat in this battle, the Yuwen family must have done it on purpose."

Li Yuan suddenly realized.

"But Yuwen and Jackie Chan are all broken at Jindi Pass."

Li Jiancheng said.

"That's because this person is arrogant and domineering, but he doesn't have much strength."

Li Yuan didn't find it strange.

"Then father thinks, His Majesty's expedition?"

Li Jiancheng hesitated to speak.

"Don't worry, let's see if there is any other news."

Li Yuan said indifferently.

"promise."

Li Jiancheng responded.

He was about to leave the hall when the guards of the mansion hurried in.

"Duke Tang, Mr. Pei is asking to see you."

said the guard.

"Look, isn't the news coming soon?"

Li Yuan stroked his chin beard and smiled.

"Let him in."

"promise."

The guard takes command.

After a while, Pei Ji walked in slowly.

This Pei Ji is also a civil servant of the Sui Dynasty, but he is very close to the Li family.

Once there is any news, it will be the first time to say it.

This will save the Li family from having to stay in Chang'an to spy on the news of the Sui family.

"Mr. Tang, how are you doing recently?"

Pei Ji asked with a smile.

"Okay, let's talk directly, you and I don't have to be so polite."

Li Yuan waved his hand and said.

"Your Majesty has assembled an army of nearly one million, and asked General Yuwenshu, General Laihu'er and others to go."

Pei Ji talked about the deployment of troops in the Sui Dynasty.

"Compared to the first expedition, the force is slightly less."

Li Yuan murmured.

"That's natural, but if you count the luggage and some craftsmen, the number of people is still quite large."

Pei Ji replied.

"And I heard that Yu Wenshu wants to take the crime and make meritorious service, so he must get credit for this battle."

He continued.

"Ah."

Li Yuan nodded.

"Only these messages?"

he asked.

"There is another one, but I'm not sure whether it's true or not."

Pei Ji's voice became low, and his expression was a little dignified.

"what?"

Li Yuan also lowered his voice and asked.

"I heard that Yang Xuangan has a different heart, but the credibility of the rumor is not very high."

Pei Ji said.

"Don't doubt it, it's probably true."

Li Yuan insisted.

"Why?"

Pei Ji was a little surprised.

Because Li Yuan has always been cautious, he would hardly believe such rumors.

"Because Yang Xuangan's behavior is too abnormal, everyone knows the conflict between Duke Chu's mansion and the royal family."

Li Yuan explained.

"In that case, it is true."

Pei Ji followed suit and nodded.

"But Yang Xuangan is really sure?"

Li Yuan was a little puzzled.

Once some things are done, there is no turning back.

"That's unknown."

Pei Ji shook his head.

"If that's the case, I have an idea."

A cunning flashed in Li Yuan's eyes.

"Mr. Tang, please tell me."

Pei Ji said.

"Your Majesty's expedition to deal with Goguryeo, Yang Xuangan may rebel, the situation is quite unfavorable."

Li Yuan said slowly.

"What if there is one more Turkic man at this time?"

"Duke Tang wants the Turkic people to also dispatch?"

Pei Ji exclaimed.

Even Li Jiancheng, who was listening, opened his mouth wide.

"You don't need to send them out, just spread the news."

Li Yuan explained.

"Regardless of whether Yang Xuangan succeeds or not, at the end of the war, he has to face the Turkic people, and His Majesty is the same."

He continued.

"When two tigers fight, there is bound to be an injury. When the time comes, our Li family will make a move to maximize our benefits."

Li Jiancheng suddenly interjected.

"Haha, yes."

Instead of complaining, Li Yuan laughed and nodded.

"The eldest son is really smart, and the second son is also capable of both civil and military skills, which is really enviable."

Pei Ji praised.

"Master Pei was joking."

Li Yuan waved his hand modestly.

"Then Mr. Tang is sure?"

Pei Ji asked.

"Definitely, the sooner the news comes out, the better."

Li Yuan nodded.

This matter is of great benefit to the Li family, even if it fails, they will not be found out.

That being the case, why hesitate?

"okay, I get it."

Pei Ji nodded.

Immediately, he stopped staying in Tang Guogong's mansion, and immediately began to arrange manpower, and spread the news of Yuan Zheng and Yang Xuangan's possible rebellion.

"After completion, just wait and see the two tigers compete."

After Pei Ji left, Li Yuan said with a smile.

"Father is brilliant."

Li Jiancheng nodded quickly.
