Li You's Tang Dynasty

Chapter 647 Dingzhou Liwei
During the process of entering Dingzhou City, Li Zhi told the situation of Dingzhou City at this time. In Dingzhou City at this time, it was headed by the Yu family, who was once a member of the Eight Pillar Kingdom.

The so-called Eight Pillar Kingdom refers to the eight families, Yu Wentai Family, Yuan Xin Family, Dugu Xin Family, Hou Mo Chen Chong Family, Li Hu Family, Li Bi Family, Zhao Gui Family, Yu Jin Family.

The ancestor of the Yu family was named Yu Jin with the word Sijing. He was famous for his talent in the early years. He was born in the regular army of the Northern Wei Dynasty. He made great contributions in suppressing the border riots. Wei Zheng was the general of the Peking University, but he sided with Erzhu in the dispute between Erzhu Tianguang and Gao Huan. Soon after Erzhu was defeated, Yu Jin fled to Guanzhong and defected to He Bayue. He was appointed General Wei and served as the governor of Xianyang .

After He Bayue was murdered, Yu Jin proposed to Yu Wentai the strategy of moving the capital to Guanzhong.Later, Yu Jin followed Yu Wentai to participate in various battles, and led Yu Wenhu and Yang Zhong to capture Jiangling, the capital of Liang. "Give thanks to Sikong, increase the number of households in the city by 15. In [-] years, he will be promoted to the general of the Zhu Kingdom."

After Yu Wentai's death, Yu Wenhu was ordered to assist the government, and when most people hesitated, Yu Jin persuaded everyone to obey Yu Wenhu and resolved the tendency to split.

Yu Jin's strategy is the best in the Eight Pillars Kingdom. Yu Jin participated in the formulation of Yu Wentai's general direction strategy in the future, and Yu Jin also used his strategy to protect his reputation even when he changed owners several times.

Yu Jin’s sons were all important in the Zhou and Sui Dynasties, and Yu Yi was the most important. His status was similar to Yu Jin in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Before Emperor Wu of Zhou succeeded to the throne, Yu Yi was even entrusted by the former emperor. The first army was in charge of one side alone, and presided over the repair of the Great Wall after Qi was destroyed.

Finally, when Yang Jian replaced Zhou, Yu Yi, like Li Mu, played an important role in influencing the overall situation. Therefore, after Yu Jin's death, the Zhou and Sui dynasties became more prosperous.

Now the Yu family has taken root in Dingzhou. Above the officialdom in Dingzhou, it can be said that the members of the Yu family are the main ones. Of course, there are also some other people from the Guanlong Group. When Li Shimin was here, of course these people He didn't dare to move around, but now that Li Zhi was the only one left, Yu's family in Dingzhou began to feel a little ready to move. Recently, Li Zhi's water volume was reduced.

Because Dingzhou is very windy and sandy, the water is relatively difficult. Reducing water is a really provocative act, but Li Zhi also knows that it is easy to bully. After seeing the amount of water, he can only be considerate, because the person who reduced the water said, People need water, but do the people really need water? Can't make the decision, it's really distressing.

As for why the Yu family did this, to put it bluntly, the Yu family did not want Li Shimin to attack Goguryeo. At this time, Datang was already very stable, especially for these families, they did not want to start a war. will lose a lot.

Of course, more civilians will die, but the important thing about this matter is that not only civilians will die, but many people from their aristocratic families will also die. In the Sui Dynasty, Yang Guang's three conquests of Goguryeo brought great losses to the gentry.

After Emperor Sui Yang succeeded to the throne, he did many things, dug through the Grand Canal, and developed the territory and prestige of the empire to an incomparable level.It can even be said that the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty was the foundation laid by Emperor Sui Yang.

But his steps are too big. He wants to solve the potential political threat once and for all, and leave a stable political environment for future generations. No matter how hard life is for ordinary people, they can't shake the foundation of the empire. The enemies of the empire were those gentry who had helped their family conquer the world. Both Emperor Sui Yang's father and Emperor Sui Yang himself had seen through this point, so he did a very risky thing.

The three attacks on Goguryeo turned the battlefield into a flesh and blood mill, constantly sending those gentry forces to death to consume the power of the gentry, but he forgot one thing, they are not fools.It's okay to make a fortune in partnership, but be a fool?no way!

Those who really worked hard on the battlefield and fought for him were those who were loyal.Li Yuan was not prominent among the nobles in Guanlong.When everyone saw this scam, Emperor Sui Yang betrayed his relatives.

But what Emperor Sui Yang did was not wrong. The Sui Dynasty had just wandered from the edge of gentry politics. In the eyes of the emperor who is the only emperor in the world, only the gentry with traces in history, the Sima family of Cao Wei, could threaten the imperial power. Wang Xie of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, which is not a situation where the gentry dominates, or the Sui Dynasty itself was also dominated by foreign relatives who took over the country in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. How can the emperor not use the gentry family as an imaginary enemy.

However, Emperor Sui Yang played it off and used the destruction of the national army to eliminate the strength of Guanlong.

Yang Guang even wanted to establish his prestige by conquering Goryeo, because the Changbai Mountain uprising led by Wang Bo started the year before, and the emperor felt that it was necessary to re-establish the prestige of the court through a large-scale military victory, and promote the people who were loyal to him through the war. general.

It's just that Yang Guang was too confident, and he failed completely in the end, and died a miserable death. Those aristocratic families had already seen that the expedition to Goguryeo was a blow to themselves, and of course they didn't want Li Shimin to attack, but Li Shimin had to attack, which caused The dissatisfaction of many aristocratic families.

At least the Yu family in Dingzhou was dissatisfied, but the Yu family did not dare to do anything to Li Shimin. However, as soon as Li Shimin went to Youzhou, the Yu family began to target Li Zhi. Slowly nibble away.

If Li Zhi dared not resist again, then the Yu family in Dingzhou might have to do more dangerous things, such as sending the supplies to Youzhou slower, which would lead to disadvantages on the front line. Anyway, some people are responsible for these things, Li Zhi It is the best choice.

When the carriage was about to reach the gate of Dingzhou City, some cavalry stopped Li You's carriage, and the leader was Yu Jing, the captain of Youguoyi in Dingzhou, and saw that he led about a hundred cavalrymen and shouted at Li You's carriage. He said: "Dingzhou Prefecture does not allow any troops to be stationed. Please station three miles away from here. We have found a suitable place for Hubenwei."

There was no bowing, no humility, only arrogance and disdain, Li Zhi hurriedly whispered in Li You's ear: "Fifth brother, this is the three-character Yu Jing from Dingzhou Yu's family, the right fruit of the local government soldiers. Captain Yi, you are in charge of the government soldiers here, and now there are [-] government soldiers in Dingzhou, and they should all be led by Jing."

After Li Zhi finished speaking, Xue Rengui rode forward and said: "Hu Benwei knows the rules, we have already found a place to station, so don't bother Dingzhou brothers to care, we will station in a place with a water source in the east of Dingzhou, you can .?"

Hearing what Xue Rengui said, Yu Jing nodded and said, "Yes, but King Qi can only bring ten people into the city!"

"Ten people.?" Xue Rengui frowned slightly: "Is it too few? Not only do we have King Qi, but Her Royal Highness Princess Jinyang is also there. Ten people are not enough!"

"Don't worry, with us here, I promise that nothing will happen to His Highness King Qi and Princess Jinyang, and the crown prince is only a hundred people. Could it be that King Qi's specifications are bigger than the crown prince's?" Yu Jing sneered.

It can be said that Yu Jing didn't pay attention to Li You at all, because just like what he said, he can handle the crown prince, so why should he be afraid of a mere king of Qi, and this king of Qi didn't have a good reputation before? Well, His Majesty is very displeased.

It's just that he didn't know that at this time, Li You was lacking someone to stand up. He knew that he had arrived in Dingzhou today, but he didn't dare to say that everyone in Dingzhou came to welcome him. Give yourself a slap in the face.

Sitting in the carriage, Li You sneered coldly. This sneer made Li Zhi's heart tremble slightly, because Li Zhi knew his fifth brother very well. If he sneered like this, someone must be unlucky.

Sure enough, Li You said to the outside: "Very good. Tell Ruguilian to see if these people can protect me and Sizi well. If you can beat Ruguilian, you will all withdraw. If you can't fight , just get rid of them and keep standing in front of my carriage, making some noise."

"No!" Xue Rengui looked at Yu Jing opposite with a smile and shouted: "General Yu, wait a moment, our Rugui Company of Tiger Benwei will attack you hundred people, block them, we listen to you, block them!" If you don’t come down, don’t get in the way.”

"What. You dare to charge us, but we are not!" Yu Jing didn't finish his sentence here, and he saw that the tiger guards slowly moved out of the way. The hundred heavy armored soldiers who were originally guarding Li You's carriage They began to gather, and then formed an impact formation.

"As home, as home, as death as home.!"

As soon as the slogan was shouted, Qin Shaoyu pulled the reins and shouted: "Destroy them, and you will be invincible!"

"drive!"

The soldiers of the One Hundred Rugui Company rushed to the Dingzhou government soldiers on the opposite side!
