Qin Meng deliberately kept a low profile, while Yang Guang was high profile and boundless.
After the peace of Yang Liangzhi's rebellion, Yang Guang began his tossing journey without any suspense.
I have to admit that the later king of subjugation wanted to do something very much.
For the smooth realization of his ideals, Yang Guang led the army and inspected the northern Turkic tribes.
After showing a strong national strength and military strength, the Turkic tribes dared not have different intentions. Yang Guang immediately ordered Yu Wenkai to build a new capital in Luoyang, Da Sui. So far, we have entered the era of coexistence of the two capitals.
Yang Guang usually lives in Luoyang Xindu, the most important thing is to supervise his dream of the Grand Canal.
As early as when Yang Guang had not served as the Marshal of Pingnan, he had this crazy idea to dig out the Grand Canal, and then he would be able to take the food from the southern land of fish and rice. Transported to the north will greatly alleviate the food problem.
The food from the south came, in fact, for another dream of Yang Guang.
During the period of Yang Jian, Goguryeo repeatedly attacked the Central Plains and angered Yang Jian, so he sent Han Wang Yang Rang in charge to conquer Goguryeo.
However, due to the advantages of the time and place, the Eastern Expedition was regarded as a failure for the Great Sui.
Although Yang Guang did not participate in the Eastern Campaign, Yang Guangshen was ashamed of that defeat.
Now that the national power of the Sui Dynasty is prosperous, Yang Guang angrily assembled his troops and launched a massive attack on the Goguryeo tribes.
The first and second attacks were unsuccessful due to the strength of the troops.
Yang Guang has in view of this. In the third attack on Goguryeo, a million troops were assembled, and it felt like they had done their work in one battle.
However, Yang Guang did a lot of things during the Eastern Expedition. The king of Yue Yang Su was killed during this period. When Yang Guang personally conquered Goguryeo, Yang Su's son Yang Xuangan. Outrageously launch a rebellion.
Under such circumstances, Yang Guang still had the thoughts of conquering the east, and the millions of Sui army fell apart in an instant, with countless casualties, and even the captured, and became slaves to the Goguryeo tribes.
Yang Guang quickly withdrew and calmed Yang Xuangan's chaos.
However, because of successive years of fighting. A large amount of food was transferred from the south of the Yangtze River, causing complaints in the south of the Yangtze River.
As the south of the Yangtze River was unstable, Yang Guang took a boat along the Grand Canal that he ordered to go down the south to Yangzhou.
At this time, Da Sui had already shown signs of prosperity and decline.
Because of Yang Guang's military rebellion, people's uprisings in various places increased sharply.
Rattles from all walks of life. One after another, Yang Guang dispatched troops and generals, but he was unable to effectively quell all kinds of rebellions.
Simply, Yang Guang stayed in Jiangnan.
Soon, the landmark event of the end of the Great Sui Dynasty occurred. In Jiangdu, Yang Guang's most beloved love Jiang Yu Wenji, and his son Yuwen Chengdu, hanged Yang Guang together. Occupied Xiao Nan, supported Yang Guang's youngest son as a puppet emperor, and held great power.
Soon. Yu Wenhua directly abolished the little emperor and proclaimed himself the emperor himself.
So far, the once glorious Great Sui. Completely plunged into the chaos of war.
At this time, Qin Meng was basically a co-owner of the grassland.
The subordinates have suggested that if there is a great chaos today, it is a good opportunity to make contributions. A corner of Lincheng is actually about the size of Youzhou. His men are strong and strong. As long as they go south to the Great Wall, they will surely be able to do their best.
Qin Meng comprehensively considered the opinions of his subordinates, and felt that the chaos hadn't reached the point of being out of control at this time, so he sent troops rashly. The opportunity was not good, so he ordered Wu Yunzhao as the commander of the Eastern Expedition, led Lincheng's 100,000 army, borrowed the way from Youzhou, and killed Goguryeo, first rescued the soldiers of the Sui Dynasty who had been enslaved by Goguryeo.
Wu Yun summoned the soldiers and horses under the command. It is not the same as the Sui army led by Yang Guang.
Qin Meng's tribe is composed of Turkic and Central Plains people with almost half the proportions, and has a natural similarity with the Goguryeo barbarians.
As a result, Wu Yunzhao led a large army, invincible, and almost effortlessly won many Goguryeo barbarian cities.
Qin Meng did not deliberately destroy Goguryeo. In addition to military strikes, he also gave preferential treatment to the prisoners. He sent people to inform the barbarians that as long as all the captured Da Sui soldiers were returned, he could forget the blame and would not destroy the barbarians.
Before, Qin Meng had conquered Goguryeo. Although the results of the Eastern Expedition were not good, Qin Meng's skills were widely spread among the nations of Goguryeo.
As a result, the Goguryeo kingdoms were almost full of heart, and returned all the captured prisoners, but also expressed their surrender to Qin Meng.
Many people suggested that it is better to take this opportunity to destroy Goguryeo directly, but Qin Meng said that at this time, the most important place is in the Central Plains. Goguryeo is in the wild, even if he is destroyed, what can be done
It is better to leave the vitality and prepare to compete in the Central Plains.
At this time, Qin Meng had a clear goal, which was to fight chaos in the Central Plains and restore a peaceful world to the people of Central Plains.
Peace is never made out, but made out.
Qin Meng is concerned about the chaos in the Central Plains anytime and anywhere. He is waiting for the opportunity to wait until all the forces in the Central Plains are exhausted, which is the best time for him to take action.
