[Datang Shuanglong Biography] The Wolf of the Eastern Capital

Tang Tian is going to leave in a matter of seconds. Before leaving, there is one more thing to clarify with Kou Zhong, and that is the Yanggong treasure house in his package. After Luoyang Dading, it will be transported back from Luoyang.Kou Zhong immediately made a decision to transport some weapons from Lingnan back to Pengcheng, leaving aside the gold and silver for the time being, "We can fight Li Shimin after we equip the brothers."

After Tang Tian took out all the weapons for Kou Zhong, he left the Song Family Mountain City and went straight back to Luoyang.The current situation in Luoyang is quite tense, because everyone knows that Li Shimin's goal this time is Luoyang, and there are rumors that Tang Tian of Tiance Mansion is not in Luoyang.

"Li Shimin has gone south, so Li Mi didn't say anything?" Tang Tian checked the map and asked with a frown.

"There is no movement for the time being, will my lord stay in the city this time?" Wei Nan still asked the doubts in his heart.

"Didn't you hear the news? On the first day of the first lunar month, I have another battle with Ning Daoqi, and there are still ten days left."

"If you're not in Luoyang, my lord, I'm afraid Li Shimin will..."

"Without me, wouldn't you be able to defend Luoyang City?"

"No, we will never let Tang Jun step into Luoyang."

"That's fine. Li Shimin's army came here for a long distance. The most feared thing is that the backup supplies will be cut off. As long as the Song Clan seizes Bashu, let's see what Li Shimin will do. On the contrary, it is Li Mi. It is really puzzling that there has been no movement for such a long time. Yes If he continues to fight Luoyang or votes for the Li Clan, he should say something. Is there any news from Miss Zhai?"

"No, those who disagreed with Li Mi all defected when Li Mi was defeated. We seem to have helped Li Mi eliminate dissidents."

Tang Tian looked at Xingyang on the map and asked, "How sure are you that you can win Xingyang within five days?"

Wei Nan thought for a while, "Less than [-]%."

"Li Mi is too calm. He is watching, to see who is better, Li Shimin or I. If I win, Luoyang City will be severely damaged. He also has an opportunity. If I lose, he will take refuge in the Li family. I can't stand him."

"Actually, we can cooperate with Xia Wang Dou Jiande in the north and ask him to help us contain Li Mi."

"I was afraid that Li Mi would be in a hurry, so I voted for Li Shimin directly." Tang Tian thought for a while and smiled, "Send someone to send a letter to Dou Jiande. It doesn't matter whether you help or not. Making enemies on three sides is no better This is even more embarrassing."

"Yes, this subordinate knows how to do it. In addition, if you have time, you'd better go to the palace to see the Emperor Taizhu. A while ago, the Emperor Huangtai came to the mansion to invite you four times."

"Couldn't it be that he was dragging his feet again?"

"Probably not. People from the imperial guards are watching him secretly. I haven't seen any plans between him and any of his close officials. However, he is the emperor after all. On the surface, the person in power in Luoyang has a lot of people who want to get close to him. I don’t know, I need you to ask yourself, my lord.”

"The matter of my return is still kept secret. I will go to see Yang Tong tonight. You can make arrangements for the guards in the palace."

At night, Tang Tian entered the palace and went straight to the emperor's bedroom. Wei Nan had already told the emperor that Tang Tian would come to see him.

"Why are you looking for me? Don't tell me that you are afraid of soldiers approaching the city?" It was originally a flag that was erected. It's good to be obedient, but if you don't, Tang Tian can break it at any time.

"Uh, of course I'm not afraid, it's just..." Yang Tong showed a look of embarrassment.

"Tell me. Why are you hesitating like this when you come to me?"

Yang Tong sighed, and took out a letter from the hidden compartment beside the bed, "General Tang, you can read it yourself."

Tang Tian took the letter, and it was written on the envelope that his nephew Yang Tong had personally signed it. The handwriting seemed to be a woman. Tang Tian frowned slightly, then took out the letter inside, glanced at it, saw the inscription, and sneered.

"This is a family attack." One of Li Shimin's concubines, Concubine Yang, is Yang Guang's second daughter and Yang Tong's aunt. She wrote the letter. There are no persuasive words in the letter, but it is a worry that I haven't seen for a long time. Interesting stories about her newborn son, Yang Tong's cousin.

"Back then in Chang'an, my second aunt also took good care of me." Yang Tong said with emotion.

"When you were discussing life between Wang Shichong and Dugufeng, why didn't she show up?"

"The second aunt was in the hands of the Li family at the time, and she had a hard time. She didn't have a place in the prince's mansion until she gave birth this year."

"You are planning to give Luoyang as a gift to your second aunt and your cousin."

"Of course not." Yang Tong looked embarrassed, "I just want to ask General Tang if he is sure about this battle, if not, why not..."

"Qiqi, what is the status of your second aunt in the prince's mansion, concubine, even if she gave birth to a son and is guaranteed, what is his son, concubine, whether he can inherit the throne of Qin is still a question, not to mention that Li Shimin's main wife is from the eldest grandson's family daughter, the eldest grandson family will allow the status of their daughter and grandson to be threatened?"

Yang Tong still wanted to say something, but he was very afraid of Tang Tian and dared not say it.

"Let's talk, I have limited time, so tell me all at once."

"Well, maybe if I send Luoyang City to them, the King of Qin will look at them differently. I heard that Tang Emperor Li Yuan thinks highly of Li Shimin, so he might be the next Tang Emperor."

Tang Tian ruthlessly threw the letter on Yang Tong's face. If it wasn't for the concern that Yang Tong was still a 15-year-old child, Tang Tian really wanted to slap him twice, "You lied to everything in your enemy's hands. Once you get it, do you still care about the life and death of your enemy? Luoyang is the only bargaining chip in your hand. If you hand it over, you will lose everything, and your life may not be saved. What else can you do to help Yang's mother and son? Why don't you hold Luoyang , Waiting for one day to invade Chang'an, imprison the Li family, and push out your cheap cousin to take over the power."

Yang Tong listened to Tang Tian's words and nodded.

"Yang Tong, I'm not saying you, you are not suitable to be an emperor." Tang Tian decided to take the opportunity to have a showdown with Yang Tong.

Yang Tong's face turned pale suddenly, and it took a long time before he chuckled twice, but his face was uglier than crying, "Actually, I don't want to be born in the emperor's family either."

"When Li Shimin is defeated, why don't you abdicate and become an idle royal family? At least I, Tang Tian, ​​can keep you safe for the rest of your life."

Yang Tong bowed his head and remained silent for a while, "What if Li Shimin can't be beaten back?"

Hearing this, Tang Tian became angry again, and said coldly, "I'll collect your body after we meet for a while."

Yang Tong's body trembled, and he said in a low voice, "I will listen to General Tang's arrangement."

Seeing that Yang Tong was still a child, Tang Tian couldn't bear it, so he said a few more words, "You are just sitting in that position as a target for someone to shoot at. If you step back and stay in Luoyang City, your power will remain the same. I am in charge of military power, and you are in charge of political power. Whether you want to be an emperor without real power or a courtier with power, you decide for yourself."

"Then who will be the emperor in Luoyang City?"

"Without an emperor, Luoyang City does not need this position. At that time, I will ask you to write an essay and list the crimes committed by Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty. You are willing to wait for your ancestors to suffer, but as a parent, I hope that the people around Luoyang will live in good health and live well." Those who can show up and treat the people of Luoyang kindly, they are willing to bow their heads and become ministers."

"What kind of person are we going to bow down to?" Yang Tong was still a little afraid.

"What kind of person, we will have the final say at that time." Humph, Tang Tian sneered, for the sake of reputation, coupled with the force to beat back Li Shimin, who will come to fight Luoyang when he sees it, this is called retreating to advance , "You have nothing to think about it carefully, don't disappoint your smart appearance."

Yang Tong smiled, his eyes rolled around twice, "Then the servant who sent me the letter has to be dealt with?"

"Just let people watch."

"Then, do I need to reply to this letter?"

"You can go back, just say that when Li Shimin makes Yang's wife, you will help Li Shimin deal with me."

"General Tang, didn't you just blame me for saying this? I'm not that stupid. General Tang, I understand as soon as you say it. Li Shimin just wants Luoyang. If he gets Luoyang, I don't matter at all."

"It's good to know. Asking you to reply is just to tease Li Shimin. Li Shimin is going to fight Li Jiancheng now. He will definitely not be an enemy of the eldest grandson's family."

"I understand."

"You really need to understand." Tang Tian stared at Yang Tong and said.

"Anyway, Luoyang is the place where I, Yang Tong, live and work. Luoyang is with me, and if Luoyang is lost, I will perish." After speaking, Yang Tong became more and more determined to keep the goal of Luoyang, and he did not want to die.

Tang Tian nodded, it's good to know this truth, Luoyang City is the only place in the world where the survivors of the Yang family are still in power, as long as Yang Tong sees the situation clearly, Tang Tian is not afraid that Yang Tong will turn against him.

After Yang Tong was dealt with, for the remaining few days, Tang Tian spent his time listening to Li Shimin's movements and defending Luoyang City.Although Tang Tian is not very good at fighting, he still knows the principle of capturing the thief first and capturing the king. It is impossible to tie up Li Shimin, but Tang Tian also expressed his expectation for other people in the Tian Strategy Mansion, and they will fight the same way as Li Mi. The momentum of the government.

Until the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, Tang Tian still stayed in Tiance Mansion. Of course, only Wei Nan and a few close people knew about it, but this also made Wei Nan wonder whether Tang Tian would go to Chang'an to fight. .

"No hurry." Tang Tian smiled inscrutablely.

Early the next morning, when Wei Nan went to see Tang Tian, ​​Tang Tian was no longer there, and outside Xuchang City, tens of miles away from Luoyang, the soldiers of the Li Clan had already gathered. Tang Fei, who was guarding Xuchang, looked at him solemnly. Outside the city, his hands were clenched tightly. This was the first battle he faced alone, and he absolutely couldn't lose.

On the east side of Luoyang, Xingyang, which had been silent for a long time, also sent troops.Qin Chuan, who had been paying attention all the time, grinned and opened his mouth, "Go, send a letter to Qin Shubao and Cheng Yaojin, the rabbit has come out of its hole."

After Tang Tian arrived in Chang'an, he hurried to Tongguan. Because Tongguan was a pass, the city tower was naturally built in a very majestic style, and it was a perfect place for the competition.When Tang Tian chose Tongguan at the beginning, he only remembered the place name of Tongguan near Chang'an when he was looking at the map. Standing on the gate of Tongguan, Tang Tian regretted it a little. Why didn't he choose the location on the Forbidden Peak of Chang'an Palace?There are many people there.Maybe when Ning Daoqi comes over, we can discuss it and change the place.
