Li Mi, who is based in Xingyang, has been looking gloomy for more than a month.
The news that Wang Bodang and Qin Qiong were defeated one after another came one after another, which was a big blow to him.
In particular, Qin Qiong not only lost the battle, but also directly surrendered Yang Guang, which seriously damaged the morale of the Wagang army.
Originally, he planned to take back the Luo Granary in these days, cut off Luoyang's food and grass, and then take advantage of the Eastern Capital's food shortage in Luoyang to capture the Eastern Capital in one fell swoop, but now facing the aggressive Yang Guang, he had to give up this plan.
Facing the Sui army that suddenly became stronger again, Li Mi did not want to fight against Yang Guang alone and waste his own strength, thereby allowing other rebel kings to reap the benefits.
But today, Li Mi got good news.
News came from Luoyang, the eastern capital, that Yang Guang wanted to use troops against Li Yuan in Guanzhong.
Li Mi was originally afraid that Yang Guang would be the first to destroy him, so he was naturally overjoyed when he heard the news.
If this was the case, the pressure on the Wagang Army would be greatly reduced.
He immediately summoned the Wagang generals and counselors to discuss how the Wagang army should act after Yang Guangxi conquered Li Yuan.
When the lobby of Li Mi's government office was filled with people, Cheng Yaojin, his fierce general, jumped out first and said: "Wei Gong, why don't we take this opportunity to break into the Eastern Capital and steal Yang Guang's throne?"
Wang Bodang, who was still bandaged, quickly waved his hand and said: "Brother Cheng has never seen the bravery and good fighting skills of the Sui army at present, especially Yang Guang's Tianxing army and Xiaoguo Imperial Guard.
They are all ruthless men who are equal to ten.
Tian Xing military A single archer can shoot heavy arrows more than three feet long with a big bow, and can hit nine out of ten shots.
The heavily armored cavalry, equipped with sophisticated steel armor, is invulnerable.
Fight without swords and guns.”
Cheng Yaojin interrupted him impatiently and said: "Okay, okay.
What you said is too exaggerated.
It's not like we have never fought against the Sui army.
We still don't believe that Yang Guang's troops can go to heaven and earth."
Don't try to make others stand up and destroy your own prestige."
Shan Xiongxin on the side also echoed: "I also think that Yang Guang's Xiaoguo Army and other armies that day are not that exaggerated, but it is still inappropriate for us to fight directly with these elites of the Sui Army.
I think we should take this opportunity to pay attention to no one."
To develop the southern part of the country, we will not attack its eastern capital.
We will attack it.
His Jiangdu.
I heard that Yang Guang’s three thousand concubines, even Queen Xiao Meiniang, and most of the treasures in the treasury are stored in Jiangdu.
If we can capture these beauties and treasures, the land of Huainan will also be ours.
Gang owns it, and can completely cut off Yang Guang’s connection with the south.”
Luo Shixin, who is usually taciturn, echoed Wang Bodang's view and said: "We still have to be careful.
After all, Yang Guang was invincible on his way back from Jiangdu to the north, and before leaving Jiangdu, he defeated and subdued the forces entrenched in Jianghuai.
Du Fuwei's attack on Li Zitong and others was definitely not due to his luck.
The thing is, we are not the only anti-Sui rebels in the world, there are four or five of them around us.
Do we need to fight Yang Guang to a bloody head first, and then let other rebel kings get the advantage?
So we.
It is not a good choice for the Wagang Army to quickly fight Yang Guang between Heluo and march south to conquer Huainan."
After Li Mi listened for a long time, someone finally mentioned the point he was concerned about and nodded approvingly.
Then he looked at Wei Zheng, the military advisor who had been stroking his beard in silence, and asked, "Don't the military advisor have any opinions of his own?"
At this time, Wei Zhengcai bowed to Li Mi and said: "I would like to inform Duke Wei, judging from the current situation of several battles, I believe that our army cannot have another major battle with Yang Guang at the moment.
Otherwise, even if we can severely defeat Yang Guang, It would be difficult for Guang even to break into Dongdu.
Otherwise we will suffer heavy losses.
This will indeed allow others to reap the benefits.
But our territory is close to Luoyang, the eastern capital of Yang Guang, and we cannot give up the nearly 20 million tons of grain in Luokou warehouse, so my subordinates have a strategy. , that is to say, defend instead of attack and wait and see what happens.”
Li Mi hurriedly asked: "Why do you use defense instead of offense?"
"Wei Gong can issue an amnesty order to build a Xingluo city with Luokou Cang as the center as the headquarters of our Wagang Army.

This city can house half of the world's grain, and has strong walls and fortifications to protect it.
Guard the north-south, east-west waterways.
This will lay the foundation for our Wagang army to conquer the world.
When Yang Guang and the heroes in Guanzhong and Hedong are exhausted and bleeding, Wei Gong can march eastward to clean up the mess in the world."
Cheng Yaojin muttered to the side: "Then we don't have to do anything in the next few days."
Wei Zheng laughed, shook his head and said: "No, Brother Shan Xiongxin's strategy can also be adopted, but we are not going all out to conquer Jianghuai.
We are just harassing The Sui Army's Jiangdu General Mansion was stationed in Huainan If Yang Guang has the upper hand in the battle with the heroes in Guanzhong and Hedong, we will tighten the transportation channel.
If we are at a disadvantage, we will try our best to maintain the balance of their power. , the longer they can fight, the better.”
Li Mi burst out laughing: "Wonderful plan, the military advisor's plan is very clever."
Nine hundred miles west of Li Mi's Xingyang mansion, Chang'an City was also the Daxing City of Xijing in the Sui Dynasty before it was renamed.
In the "Prime Minister's Mansion" next to the palace, Li Yuan was also frowning.
Sitting on the Taishi chair, he was in a daze, and the scenes of less than a year passed before his eyes.
Under the instigation of his son Li Shimin, when he rebelled against the Sui Dynasty in Jinyang, he believed that the Sui Emperor Yang Guang could no longer return to the north.
Even if he can't unify the world and become an emperor with this skill, he can at least separate the east of Guanlong River, which is no less than the master of the Western Wei Dynasty.
Later, when they marched all the way to Chang'an in Guanzhong, it was like entering an uninhabited country.
They captured cities and territories and reached Chang'an in a few days.
Then he easily captured Chang'an, kidnapped the acting king Yang You and became the puppet emperor of the Sui Dynasty, and worshiped Yang Guang of Jiangdu as the supreme emperor.
He made himself the king of Tang Dynasty and worshiped the prime minister.
For a time, the surrounding counties and even the governors of counties as far away as Bashu surrendered without warning.
He only sent some appeasement envoys.
The envoys took the edict of the puppet emperor Yang You and sent the entire Guliang Prefecture and the counties in Bashu to the throne.
With this in his pocket, he became the second most powerful hero in the world after the Wagang Army.
Who knew that people were not as good as God, and Li Yuan was still sitting in Chang'an City.
A few months later, Yang Guang first conquered the Jianghuai hero Du Fuwei and defeated Li Zitong.
Then he led tens of thousands of troops to attack thousands of miles, and returned to the Eastern Capital in just a few months.
Along the way, he also defeated Wang Bodang and Qin Qiong.
When Yang Guang returned to Luoyang, the eastern capital, Li Yuan became extremely nervous.
At that time, Li Shimin comforted him and said that when Yang Guang returned to Dongdu, he would first fight with the Wagang Army.
But things developed far beyond their expectations.
Immediately afterwards, Yang Guang issued an edict to the governors and governors of counties in Guanzhong, Bashu, and Liangzhou, and sent tens of thousands of troops westward from Tongguan to threaten Chang'an.
Those county chiefs all submitted to the authentic Sui Dynasty in the Eastern Capital and no longer recognized him as the Chang'an court.
He is currently in a very isolated state
