Datang: From exiled prince to eternal tyrant

Chapter 13 The force of the Guanlong Group, go all out to the south!

In the following days, Changsun Wuji was "ordered" to return to Yuanyou to gather forces to quell the southwest rebellion.

And Li Shimin was also caught in a tangle.

Those who have never been a father will not understand his helplessness.

The palms and backs of the hands are all meat.

If we fully protect the third child Li Ke, we will cause trouble for the second child Li Chengqian.

As for the eldest son, Li Shimin's eldest son was adopted by someone else before the Li family made a fortune, and he died.

Coupled with the stimulation of the Xuanwumen Incident, he especially disliked the rivalry between brothers.

As for Changsun Wuji, he was an acquaintance of ordinary people and a real brother-in-law who shared weal and woe. He would not do anything to Changsun Wuji for Li Ke.

The best result is that Li Ke is nailed to the Kingdom of Shu like a nail.

In this way, Li Ke can't threaten Li Chengqian, and Li Chengqian can't touch Li Ke. Even if he waits for Li Shimin to die for a hundred years, the two sides can maintain a balance.

This is also the reason why Li Ke started to rebel and kill the gentry as a destabilizing factor when he first came up, and Li Shimin also supported it.

The sixteen guards of the central government are here, and the military leaders have been loyal to him almost since the time of Prince Qin's mansion. If there is no sudden attack by foreign enemies, Datang will never fall apart.

The real unstable factors are those aristocratic families, which are exactly the targets that Li Ke wants to eliminate.

If Li Ke could clear out all the aristocratic gentry in the southwest, leaving only ordinary scholars, that would be the best result.

No matter what Li Ke does with the land of the wiped out gentry, it is still better than being held by the gentry.

The gentry are too good at using their own strong capital to develop land and then use competition and plunder to make those farmers become landless tenants.

People without land will inevitably be the opposite of the Tang Dynasty. There is no doubt about this.

When there are more people without land, they will unite and reshuffle the cards.

The curse of 300 years of reincarnation can never be broken.

However, if you want to move the gentry, the backlash is also powerful.

"I hope you can stand it..."

Li Shimin looked southwest and sighed.

……

At the northern foot of the Qinling Mountains, Longnan.

The junction of the Sichuan and Sichuan mountains and Gansu.

Looking in the direction of Sichuan from here, the Qinling Mountains tower into the sky.

A river flows slightly from the northwest to the southeast, crosses the high mountains of the Qinling Mountains, and enters Sichuan.

No matter how tall the mountains are, they can't stop the wanton flow of rivers.

Qiangshui, also known as the Bailong River in later generations, has been flowing here quietly for hundreds of billions of years.

Here, at this time, the Jin flag is like a forest, and the drums are like thunder.

15 armed servants from the Guanlong Group, wearing black leather armor and gray battle robes, holding sophisticated Baidu Steel weapons, with solemn eyes.

They lined up in a basic marching formation, lined up on both sides of a river tens of meters wide.

In the middle, floating ships were loaded with their supplies.

From here down the river, you can enter Fuzhou.

Then go down the Fujiang River and go straight to Jinyang.

Changsun Wuji, who was dressed in a majestic purple robe and a purple-black crown, came before the army with a group of followers and guards.

"The prime minister is personally in charge. Merits will be rewarded, and mistakes will be punished."

"No one has to worry about losing even half of their achievements."

"The army goes out and takes Chengdu directly!"

Changsun Wuji drew out his long sword and pointed it at Fang Fang.

"Definitely!"

"Definitely!"

"Definitely!"

The voices of the soldiers of the Yuanyou Army resounded throughout the world.

The army marched along the Qiang River like the tide.

Over [-] soldiers, flying birds are difficult.

The entire riverside is full of well-equipped black armor and gray robes.

Look at that momentum, in the whole world, who will compete with him?

……

At the same time, Maozhou Administrative Office, Wenshan County.

The Shu army has surrounded here.

In this impoverished small county, there are only four counties, and there are no more than one thousand soldiers.

It hadn't been an hour since the Shu army began to besiege the city, and the city gate had already been opened.

"We surrender!"

"Grandpa farmers, please forgive me!"

All the gentry in the city came out with their families, followed the governor and more than 400 county soldiers stationed in Wenshan County, and then knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Bah, I thought there would be a day's delay here."

"Listen well, those who surrender will not die, pack up the soft things, ten days of rations, get out!"

Wearing a purple Mingguang armor and riding a majestic maroon Western Region horse, Liu Zhi spat when he saw the other party's bear-like appearance.

"Yes, yes, thank you farmers for your kindness!"

The governor and the gentry knelt down one after another to thank him. After being inspected and leaving the land deed, they were let go.

More than 400 county soldiers first followed these people for a few hundred meters, and then turned back.

"We want to join the Shu army!"

"That's right, I'm also a farmer, so why give my life to these bastards!"

"Men of the Shu army, accept me and wait!"

In the next second, they all brought their own weapons and asked to join the Shu army, and were welcomed by Ma Liuzhi.

"People, soldiers and civilians in Mao County, today you will be officially liberated!"

"From now on, under the rule of the King of Shu, everyone will be protected whether they are farming or working."

"I can't guarantee that everyone will be rich and powerful, but as long as they are willing to work, life, old age, sickness and death will be taken care of by the Shu Palace!"

The voices of the soldiers of the Shu Army who entered Wenshan County resounded through the streets and alleys.

"Free!"

"Free!"

"Finally, I don't have to be a cow or a horse for those dog bastards!"

The people of the whole city suddenly cheered.

Everyone was eating pots of pulp and happy to welcome the Shu army.

The entire city, having swept away the panic of the army siege, was filled with a sea of ​​joy everywhere.

The Shu Army is the army of the King of Shu. After joining the Kingdom of Shu, they will be guaranteed life, old age, sickness and death. The news that people will not starve to death has already spread throughout the world.

No matter how bad it is, it is no worse than being exploited one after another with the gentry.

"General Ma, King Shu's flying pigeon is sending a message!"

At this time, a communication cavalry came on horseback.

"A letter from the King of Shu? I'm afraid it's not a military order!"

"Have a quick look with me!"

After Ma Liuzhi heard the words, his spirit was shaken.

The orderly quickly handed over the letter.

Ma Liuzhi took a look and wrote the letter: "The enemy army is besieging from all sides, Changsun Wuji from the north is the strongest, with a hundred thousand troops, there is nothing to worry about in the territory of Shu, you should try your best to find a strong city nearby and resist the enemy's invasion with all your strength. "

"When the enemy army is exhausted, this king will lead the cavalry to fight out from behind the enemy army."

The content of the military order is simple and easy to understand.

The request was just one, Ma Liuzhi defended with all his strength, and then came to support after Li Ke led the cavalry to deal with the invasion from other directions.

"One hundred thousand yuan right army?"

"Those guys are rich, and each of them has participated in several rounds of military service. They are difficult to deal with..."

"It looks like we're going to have a tough fight."

After Ma Liuzhi sighed solemnly, he immediately called all the officers to a meeting, and began to prepare for the local defense in Wen County!
