Sui and Tang Dynasties: At the beginning, Mrs. Li ran away from relatives

If Gao Shilian hadn't said that nothing was wrong, with this guarantee, the Xiao family would have ceased to exist.

Now, with the development of the situation, the ruling power of the Sui Dynasty gradually weakened, while the Han army became stronger and stronger.

Xiao Li felt that if the Xiao family wanted to survive, they had to make some changes.

"Uncle, if our Xiao family wants to develop in the long run, we have to make a choice." Xiao Li sighed secretly.

Xiao Yan nodded solemnly

It is a matter of the survival of the family and cannot be ambiguous.

"Patriarch, who do you think we should choose? The Sui Dynasty or the Han army?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Li made a "shh" gesture.

"Uncle, walls have ears, so keep your voice down. If Jin Yiwei hears it, everyone in our Xiao family will go to the execution ground tomorrow."

Xiao Li has always been very afraid of the Jinyiwei of the Han army.

It is said that Jinyiwei is everywhere, and there are shadows of Jinyiwei in places that can be seen and in places that cannot be seen.

Xiao Yan's remarks just now were enough to destroy the Xiao family.

After such a reminder, Xiao Yan looked a little flustered, and subconsciously looked around.

"Patriarch, what do you think, how should our family choose?"

Xiao Yan lowered his voice and said slightly.

In response, Xiao Li narrowed his eyes.

"Uncle, years ago, I still had certain expectations for the Sui Dynasty, and felt that they could make a comeback with their solid foundation.

"But after the end of the year, wars broke out frequently in various parts of the Sui Dynasty, and the people were in dire straits. I think the Sui Dynasty was exhausted."

Xiao Yan was shocked when he heard it.

"Patriarch, where do you say that? The Sui Dynasty has ruled for decades, with a deep foundation, how come it is exhausted?"

Xiao Li nodded heavily.

"Yes, as far as I can see, the days of the Sui Dynasty are exhausted, and they will be replaced by the Han army sooner or later."

Xiao Yan took a deep breath, a little unbelievable.

"Patriarch, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. The Sui Dynasty has ruled the world for decades, and has already established a deep foundation. How can it be replaced so easily?" up.

In this regard, Xiao Li smiled confidently.

"Uncle, what do you think has changed in Chang'an now compared to the past?"

After listening, Xiao Yan thought for a moment.

"Compared to before, Chang'an is now more prosperous, with people coming and going, and it is very lively."

Xiao Li nodded.

"Uncle just said the surface, but in essence, the city of Chang'an is like this because of the benevolent government of the King of Han in 697."

"The Han army governed with benevolence, not only Chang'an, Liangzhou, Sizhou, Yuzhou and other places, but also governed with benevolence."

"I heard that now the Han army is ruling all the lands, the people are in good health, and the output value of each place has doubled, and it has begun to prosper."

"On the other hand, when the Sui Dynasty ruled various lands, there were chaos and armies everywhere, and the people were trapped in water and fire, suffering unspeakably."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan had a suddenly realized expression.

"Those who won the hearts of the people have won the world since ancient times, Patriarch, do you mean to say that the Han army has already won the hearts of the people?"

Xiao Li nodded her head.

"Yes, the Han army has won the hearts of the people, and now it is strong and strong. The King of Han has personally conquered Bingzhou and wants to destroy Li Tang."

"In a short time, Li Tang will be destroyed, and the Han army will occupy the entire Bingzhou again."

"At that time, the Han army will own Liangzhou, most of Yizhou, Yuzhou, Bingzhou, and Sizhou."

"In this way, it is only a matter of time before the Han army wants to dominate the world."

After some analysis, Xiao Yan was moved by it.

"Hearing what the Patriarch said, the current Han army has indeed overwhelmed the Sui family, so what will happen to our family in the future? Xiao Li took a deep breath.

"If we suddenly go to the Han army, I'm afraid it will arouse the suspicion of the King of Han."

"Let the clansmen continue to maintain the status quo, and arrange more clansmen to seek official positions in the Han army."

"From now on, in this world, I'm afraid the surname will be Cao.".

At the same time, far away in Yizhou.

Since Chen Xiaoyi was killed with hatred when he broke through Guchang City last time, the Sui army had no generals and no defenders.The entire southern part of Yizhou was in chaos.

Guo Xiaoke took the opportunity to take down the entire Jianning County, and sent Fan Zigai to lead an army to Yongchang County.

At this time, Guo Xiaoke was in a military camp, lighting a candle and looking at the map on the table.

—Besides, Zhang Gongjin is also there.

"General Guo, please see that our army has taken the entire Jianning County, and the only remaining land is Yongchang County and Xinggu County."

Guo Xiaoke

Laugh out loud.

"The Sui army has no defenders and no defenders. It can be said that it is a mess. The rest of the land is left to our army."

Zhang Gongjin nodded in agreement.

"What General Guo said is very true. The Sui army has no foothold in Yizhou."

"Wait for taking down the entire southern part of Yizhou. This is a great achievement. I will congratulate General Guo in advance."

When Guo Xiaoke heard this, he hurriedly gave up.

"Gongjin, you're out of your league by saying that. It's not due to me alone that I was able to conquer Yizhou. If it weren't for Gongjin and your advice, how could our army easily defeat the enemy?" Zhang Gongjin smiled, full of vigor expression.

"The victory of Yizhou this time is due to the contribution of the soldiers, as well as the colleagues of the Jinyiwei. Their news is also very important."

Guo Xiaoke nodded again and again, laughing boldly.

"That's right, everyone deserves credit for winning Yizhou."

"Come on, Gongjin, I will offer you a toast."

Zhang Gongjin raised the wine glass, and the two drank together, which was an early celebration.

At this time, a soldier ran in at the door.

"General Guo, there is news from the front line."

Upon hearing this, Guo Xiaoke quickly invited the spies in.

"General Guo, the latest news from the front line. General Fan led an army of [-] to attack all the way. He has captured the entire Yongchang County and is now deploying defenses to stabilize the situation." Hearing this, Guo Xiaoke was overjoyed.

"Gongjin, Yongchang County has also been taken, and now only Xinggu County is left. V."

Zhang Gongjin was also very happy.

"This is great news. General Fan is also extremely brave."

"General Guo, take a look. In the next step, our army can directly send troops to attack Wanwen City in Xinggu County."

"Once Xinggu County is captured, the entire southern part of Yizhou will be under the control of our army."

After listening, Guo Xiaoke nodded quickly.

"Gong Jin, the general had exactly this intention."

"Nowadays, the Sui army has no soldiers to use in Yizhou. Xinggu County may only have thousands of defenders. Our army can easily attack."

"Soon, the war in Yizhou will come to an end."

Guo Xiaoke looked proud and pacified the southern part of Yizhou all the way. Looking back, he was very moved.

"Gongjin, I wanted to write a letter and send it to Chang'an City."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Gongjin nodded quickly.

"General Guo, it should be so. You can write a letter yourself, saying that the war in Yizhou is over, and our army has almost won the entire Yizhou."

As long as Xinggu County is taken again, the entire southern part of Yizhou will be under the control of the Han army.

Next, is the Jingzhou area.

What to do at that time depends on the decision of the imperial court.

And Guo Xiaoke brought a pen and paper in high spirits, and quickly wrote a letter.

"Come here, send the letter to Chang'an, our army has won a great victory!"

After speaking, Guo Xiaoke and Zhang Gongjin walked out of the camp.

"Assemble all the troops and march into Wanwen City tomorrow morning."

In less than a day, the Han army had arrived at the gate of Wanwen City.

In Wanwen City, there are no generals at all, only thousands of Sui troops standing guard.

At this time, the Sui soldiers on the top of the city looked outside the city with panicked expressions on their faces.

"It's over, the Han army is here, at least [-] troops."

"What should I do? There are no guards in the city."

"If the Han army attacks, we will surely die."

With no command and no hope in sight, the morale of the Sui army was low and they had no fighting spirit.

At this time, Guo Xiaoke rode a horse and took a few steps forward.

"Listen to the Sui army in the city, this general knows that there are no generals in your city, and you don't have many troops, why don't you quickly open the city and surrender?

After listening, many Sui soldiers swallowed.

"Shall we surrender?"

"No, how can we be prisoners? Swear not to surrender."

It is a person with backbone who does not want to be captured and vows to fight to the death.

But such people are a minority after all, and most people want to survive.

After hearing Guo Xiaoke's words, the city gate creaked open with just a cup of tea.

Among them, a centurion came out on horseback and knelt on the ground.

"General, we are willing to surrender, just ask the general not to kill us."

—All the Sui soldiers knelt on the ground one after another, willingly surrendering.

Guo Xiaoke waved his hand.

"The surrender will not be killed, the whole army will enter the city and take down Wanwen City."

With an order, the Han army marched neatly and slowly entered Wanwen City.

Seeing this scene, the kneeling Sui soldiers were shocked.

Is this the Han army?The phalanx is neat and well-equipped, just looking at it from a distance gives people a strong sense of oppression.

It's no wonder that the Sui army's battles in Yizhou were frequently defeated, and their combat power was not at the same level at all.

And with the Han army stationed in Wanwen City, it can be said that the entire Xinggu County is already under control.

The Sui army had no soldiers available in Yizhou, and what Guo Xiaoke had to do was to dispatch the army and deploy the frontier.

As a result, the entire southern part of Yizhou was completely controlled by the Han army.

The Sui army who surrendered was carefully screened and selected, and [-] of them met the criteria and were incorporated into the regular army.

The unqualified ones were sent back to their hometowns without embarrassing them.

At this time, in the general's mansion of Wanwen City.
