Comprehensive martial arts: Summon the thunder and lightning general, I will rule the world
Chapter 770 2 Song Merger
For Yang Guang, the Great Sui Dynasty was very important. If he lost the Great Sui Dynasty, he would not be the Yang Guang he is today. Those guys who were unhappy with him before would come out one after another to add insult to injury. After he became emperor, he did like to play power games, and therefore offended many people.
Yang Guang found excuses to deal with many people from aristocratic families.
Many of the excuses were just random ones made up by Yang Guang himself. There was no other way, he just wanted to target the aristocratic families. After all, these guys were not easy to deal with.
He used the means of losing battles to eliminate many people from aristocratic families in the army. This led to the fact that although the Sui Dynasty was constantly losing battles, Yang Guang had more and more troops at his disposal, and they were all his direct subordinates.
When going to war with the Tang Dynasty, Yang Guang brought all his own troops with him. In order to ensure victory, Yang Guang also brought Gao Ti with him. During the previous battles, Yang Guang also let Gao Ying take charge of the battle in order to prevent himself from giving blind orders.
But under such circumstances, they still lost.
This was something Yang Guang had not expected, that Li Shimin was so powerful that even Gao Di was no match for Li Shimin.
Yang Guang was not a complete fool, nor was he ignorant of military affairs. On the contrary, Yang Guang was relatively knowledgeable about military affairs. He knew that Li Shimin was really powerful.
It’s not about his personal martial arts. In terms of personal martial arts, Yang Guang is confident that he is now superior to Li Shimin.
It’s not certain whether that guy has reached the realm of heaven or man.
But in terms of military, it seems that Li Shimin is really powerful. Not only is he not Li Shimin's opponent, but Gao Di is not either.
Many people had boasted about Li Shimin's military ability before, but Yang Guang didn't really take Li Shimin seriously. Wasn't it just destroying the country?
I destroyed the Southern Chen Dynasty before I was 20 years old. I was trained on the border between the Sui Dynasty and the Turks when I was very young. In the eyes of Yang Guang, Li Shimin was just like that. He was just the tallest among the short ones. How could the Tang Dynasty be better than the Sui Dynasty?
At least in Yang Guang's view, the Sui Dynasty was much more powerful than the Tang Dynasty.
But this time, Yang Guang discovered that the clown was actually himself.
Li Shimin was not a clown. Instead, he was much more powerful than everyone said. Moreover, not only Li Shimin was powerful, but Li Jing was also very powerful. If these two people joined forces, if it was only in the military aspect, I am afraid no one could be their opponent.
At this time, Yang Guang also remembered Li Jing
They were still from the Sui Dynasty, but they later fled to the Tang Dynasty. This made Yang Guang even more furious. His own people actually became dogs for Li Shimin!
This is simply unreasonable.
The key is that I can't beat them now. This time, the main force of the Sui Dynasty has been brought here by me. If my entire army is wiped out here, then it will not be a question of whether I can return to the Sui Dynasty alive.
At that time, even if his father Yang Jian stepped forward again, he would probably not be able to clean up the mess.
Yang Guang has always had a deep trust in his father Yang Jian.
After all, his father was so powerful. Whether it was leading troops in battle or being an emperor, Yang Jian was excellent in both civil and military affairs.
Many people brag about how powerful those emperors were, but in Yang Guang's opinion, they were not as powerful as Yang Jian.
The more you understand Yang Jian, the more you will know how powerful he is. As for those so-called greatest emperors of all time, they can't even see the shadow of Yang Jian.
Well, at least that’s what Yang Guang thought and believed.
Yang Guang thought he had hidden those things very well and believed that he had done well enough.
But he later discovered that Yang Jian and his mother knew everything, and they just watched him do those things silently.
As for the fight between him and his eldest brother, it was more like they were competing for the succession.
Facts have proved that he won.
But Yang Guang also knew that the reason why he could win was actually closely related to Yang Jian turning a blind eye.
It's not that he was really so good that he could hide it from Yang Jian, but because, compared to Yang Yong, he, Yang Guang, was more outstanding and more suitable for the throne of Sui.
Yang Guang was naturally very happy to be able to become the emperor of the Sui Dynasty, but it also made him more and more afraid of Yang Jian.
Fortunately, even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. Although Yang Jian watched the struggle between him and Yang Yong, he was still Yang Jian's only son, wasn't he?
For a long time after becoming emperor, Yang Guang imitated Yang Jian, but unfortunately, he was not Yang Jian and could not grasp the right balance.
Whether it was Yang Guang or Yang Jian, they were both suppressing the aristocratic families, and because of their suppression, the relationship between the Yang family and the Guanlong families became increasingly delicate.
The situation was better when Yang Jian was still alive. He suppressed and won over people, and he would try to divide these forces.
But Yang Guang was different. He only knew how to suppress and attack them, but did not think about how to win them over or divide them.
He tried to use his imperial mind to make these guys unable to guess his intentions, and let them guess slowly on their own.
But his behavior often has a counterproductive effect.
If the aristocratic families were really that easy to deal with, then Yang Jian would have dealt with them long ago, and there would be no need to wait for Yang Guang to come.
Of course, whether Yang Guang or Yang Yong became the emperor of Sui, they were doomed to fail.
The establishment of the Sui Dynasty was closely related to the aristocratic families. After the Sui Dynasty became stronger, it was almost impossible to deny them power.
However, there are more or less contradictions between the power of the aristocratic families and the imperial power.
Don’t be fooled by the fact that Li Shimin seems to be doing well now. It seems that many aristocratic families are willing to support Li Shimin.
But that was because they had to do so. Zhu Houzhao and Ying Zheng were obviously not the people who would compromise with them.
Under such circumstances, Li Shimin is the best choice.
Zhu Houzhao and Ying Zheng were mortal enemies to the aristocratic families and the official gentry and landlord class.
They had to find a force or a country to fight against the Ming Dynasty and the Qin Dynasty. In the beginning, some people actually wanted to bet on the Song Dynasty.
After all, Zhao Kuangyin was also a strong figure. Perhaps in terms of military strength, the Song Dynasty was not that good, but in other aspects, the Song Dynasty was top-notch. Moreover, in terms of military strength, in fact, as long as the two Song Dynasties were united, if Zhao Kuangyin's plan at that time could be successfully implemented, the Song Dynasty could also become a behemoth.
If the two Song dynasties merged and annexed Dali and the Jin Dynasty, and if they could also capture part of the Yuan Dynasty's territory, then the Song Dynasty would still have hope and could even defeat Zhu Houzhao and the Ming Dynasty.
But this guy Zhao Kuangyin was really incompetent. Not only Zhao Kuangyin was incompetent, but all the generals under him were useless. They boasted loudly at ordinary times, but when they were really needed, they were simply good-for-nothings.
