Chapter 279: Supporting Emperor Sui, Li Shimin is in charge


"Bouncing" With the sound of a golden drum, the Li army finally launched a fierce attack on Chang'an City.

It is only said that this time, the coach Li Yuan was stubborn and stubborn, and personally went into battle to boost the morale of the army.

For a while, the morale of the soldiers of the Li clan was greatly shaken, and they frantically attacked Chang'an City In an instant, I saw a tragic offensive and defensive battle ring out again.

Although the city of Chang'an is strong and tall, easy to defend and difficult to attack, the Li army is a great military might.

In addition, the internal instability in Chang'an City, although there are Lu Zhi, Wei Wensheng, and a generation of military gods Li Jing to defend the city.

But after holding on for more than ten days, Li Shimin took the lead in leading the army to break through the south gate of Chang'an and enter the city.

At this point, Chang'an, the imperial capital of the Sui Dynasty, was declared to have fallen.

In the end, with the loss of the city, Lu Zhi and Wei Wensheng drew their swords and killed themselves.

And Li Jing, the god of war, is nowhere to be found For a time, the whole army of the Li clan officially captured Chang'an and dominated Guanlong.

It's just that although the Li family has now become the real helmsman of Chang'an.

But how could Li Yuan, who was quite deep in the old Dao City Government, not know the current situation I know that as long as I stand on my own at this time, I will definitely become the target of the world's heroes.

Therefore, after some discussion between Li Yuan and his ministers, it was decided to establish the descendants of the Yang clan as the emperor to command the world.

After all, now the Li clan has just started its army, and its foundation is shallow and weak, and it is difficult for it to survive under the siege of the heroes.

In history, it was the news that Yang Guang died in the Jiangdu mutiny, and Li Yuan established himself as emperor.

Although Yang Guang had already died in this life, Li Yuan still did not dare to rashly claim the title of emperor.

Because, although the Li clan now dominates Guanlong, the actual areas under their control are only Jingzhao, Hedong and Taiyuan.

The Liang divisions of Yan'an, Huaihua and other counties west of Chang'an are entrenched here. and Hexi Li Rail is entrenched here, and its strength cannot be underestimated Not only that, Xue Ju of Longxi, Liangzhou, also claimed to be the overlord of Western Qin, with strong strength and a strong army Subsequently, there were countless separatist forces entrenched in various parts of Xiliang.

With the existence of separatist forces, there is a threat to the Li clan who have just gained a foothold in the Guanlong area.

For a while, the emerging Li clan was not enough to face many wolf-like anti-kings alone.

A few days later, Li Yuan officially proclaimed the world in Chang'an City, supporting Yang You, the grandson of Yang Guang and the third son of Yang Zhao, as the emperor.

Then there was an amnesty for the world and the yuan was changed to "Yining" Then, the so-called Western Sui began to recuperate and rectify the rule of officials.

In the blink of an eye, it was the autumn of 619 AD.

At this time, the Li army was officially reorganized, and then Li Yuan, who was in charge of the government, ordered his eldest son Li Jiancheng to stay in Chang'an.

Assist him in taking charge of the government, stabilizing the rear, and allocating materials.

Li Shimin was appointed as the generalissimo of the expedition to the west, and led an army of 70,000 to the west to conquer Liangzhou. attempted to completely pacify Liang Shidu, Li Liang, and Xue Ju, who had seized Longxi.

"Li Jia's sons, follow Ben Shuai to attack, eliminate traitors, and restore peace to the world" In the school field, Li Jiajun can be described as a general, with a large army under his command.

As the marshal of the expedition to the west, Li Shimin was sent around, standing on a high platform, and worked hard to inspire the whole army.

"Mighty, mighty" In an instant, I saw the earth-shattering shouts of tens of thousands of troops.

It is only said that the army of the expedition to the west set out from Chang'an and marched westward all the way, and almost all of them were welcomed by the splints of the people everywhere For a while, this couldn't help but make Li Shimin, as the coach, puzzled.

Although since the invasion of Chang'an, their Li family has implemented a series of policies to benefit the people.

But it's only been a few months, and the influence of the people's will has not yet reached this level.

Immediately, Li Shimin summoned his chief of staff Sun Wuji, Sima Yi, Chen Gong and the newly admitted Du Ruhui to discuss.

Hearing Li Shimin's words, I saw that all the staff began to ponder.

After a long time, the eldest grandson Wuji took the lead in speaking: "Second son, Liang Shidu is this person, don't hear a little" "Liang Shidu can be described as a complete foreign lackey, often instigating the Turks to enter the country and rob them."

"Therefore, the people under his rule heard about a series of policies to benefit the people of our army in Chang'an."

"Therefore, it is not surprising that they all resented the rule of Liang Shidu and welcomed the arrival of our army instead" only said that with the explanation of the eldest grandson Wuji, the rest of the staff also nodded in agreement.

After thinking about it, Li Shimin also nodded approvingly.

Subsequently, almost everywhere the Li army went, they were able to be received by the local people in a friendly manner.

At this time, Li Shimin also took the liberty to inform many people.

"Folks, my name is Li Shimin, as the coach of the Western Expedition."

"Now I can assure you that as long as you abide by the law under the rule of our army, you will definitely be able to have a stable life."

With Li Shimin's commitment, his popularity among the people has also increased day by day It is only said that the Liang divisions who have seized this place heard that the Li army's army is coming, and they are immediately frightened.

After all, the Liang division only divided one or two counties, and its strength was not strong.

For the Li family's large-scale westward expedition, it is difficult for Liang Shi alone to resist.

In addition, it is Li Shimin who is the commander of the army this time.

When the Li family Taiyuan raised troops south to Chang'an, Li Shimin was like a legendary figure.

Since the march all the way, it is almost certain to win and conquer Such a military might has long left a deep impression in the minds of the anti-kings.

Hearing that Li Shimin personally commanded the attack, Liang Shi almost abandoned the entire territory.

Fortified in Yan'an and Huaihua counties, the city was held in two lines to resist the attack of its Li army.

It's just that Li Shimin is not very human, and after some discussion with his staff, he overrode public opinion and led the light army to attack Yan'an City, the hinterland of Liang Division.

The command of the army was temporarily handed over to the clan Li Xiaogong.

As if the destiny of heaven was in the Li family, it was only said that Li Shimin personally led a light army to attack Yan'an.

There was not the slightest decent resistance After only a few days, Yan'an planted the Li character battle flag.

Squinting at the mountains of grain in the warehouse, Li Shimin smiled knowingly.

It turned out that since the scouts found out the news that the Liang division had contracted the defense line and gathered a large army to hold the two counties.

Li Shimin immediately thought of exploring the grain and grass hoarding place of the Liang Shidu army.

After layers of inquiry, Li Shimin finally learned that the grain of Liang Shidu's army was hoarded in Yan'an.

Therefore, Li Shimin ignored the persuasion of everyone and personally led an army to dangerous land and cut off its food routes.

However, Li Shimin seemed to be providential, and his luck was so good.

It is not difficult to imagine how the army of Liang Shidu, which had lost its grain route, would defeat the attack of the Li army After the success of the strategy of assaulting Yan'an, Li Shimin immediately ordered the sentry cavalry to rush to inform the main force and urgently come to meet the summons of the great chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty :
