Li Yuan There was a meaningful pause before crossing the river.
He is waiting.
Hedong is an important military center of the Sui Dynasty . The head coach is Qu Tutong . He is a famous elder general with the Sui Dynasty. When Yang Xuangan raised an army in Liyang, the military leader of the eastern capital Luoyang was Qu Tutong.
quenching the iron fist, making Luoyang twist into a rope.
Yang Xuangan was in a good situation and could only hate him in the end. Otherwise, Yang Guang was expeditioned to Goryeo at that time, and it was thousands of miles away. The world might have changed its flags and flags long ago.
Although Qu Tutong made great contributions to saving the world, his actions offended the powerful people in Luoyang City too deeply, and he cruelly executed Yang Guang's liquidation order in the post-war liquidation.
This has caused many backbone forces in the government and the opposition to suffer the pain of losing their son and betrayal.
This is an unresolved grudge. Therefore, although his achievements are greater than that of heaven, Luoyang cannot stay any longer, but Qu Tutong is really a general of the country.
Yang Guang knew very well that although he needed Qu Tutong to take the blame for him, he had high hopes for Qu Tutong.
Because Qu Tutong was one of the few generals with integrity at the end of the Sui Dynasty.
He once became famous in the horse wrangling incident.
At that time, more than a thousand people were all guilty of death. Yang Jian Long Yan was furious and wanted to behead more than a thousand people. When he was furious, no ministers dared to offend Yang Jian's sharpness.
But Qu Tutong's offense Yan directly advised Yang Jian, "I am as if I were dead, I hope to save more than a thousand lives."
Under his insistence, Yang Jian convicted more than a thousand people from death penalty first grade. Qu Tutong saved more than a thousand lives with his own strength.
This made Qu Tutong famous between the government and the country, and his career went smoothly from then on.
Therefore, although Qu Tutong was not very talented, he was already the hope of the people of the Sui Dynasty. He was highly expected by Yang Guang to guard Hedong.
Yang Guang hopes that he will become a rock-stable existence between the two capitals of the East and West.
Qu Tutong is there, and the Sui Dynasty is here.
However, the situation at the end of the Sui Dynasty had long fallen apart and was really terminally ill. Although Qu Tutong led tens of thousands of elite soldiers, he could only trap the lonely city and was powerless to do anything about Li Yuan's westward advance.
Of course he has tried hard.
Li Yuan saw it very accurately, Qu Tutong was just a "guardian".
When Li Yuan's army conquered cities and plundered the land east of Yellow River , Qu Tutong chose to wait and see. Although his army was only fifty miles away from Li Yuan and within reach, it was far away and did not take further action.
Li Yuan pointed out incisively that "there is no use for the sake of human feelings."
So, Li Yuan took advantage of the momentum and wanted to take down Hedong City in one go.
Li Yuan originally thought he could get it right, but he looked down on Qu Tutong too much, and he got the first defeat since the Taiyuan rebelled .
Although this defeat did not hurt Li Yuan's roots, it made Li Yuan more cautious in his attitude towards the old armed forces of the Sui Dynasty.
Li Yuan saw that Qu Tutong dared to pursue his army from afar, so he made a decision to rush into the east city of Hedong. He wanted to clear the last stronghold that crossed the Yellow River west.
is strategically correct, because the existence of Hedong City can bring the army crossing the river into a desperate situation in minutes. In history, there are countless examples of the entire army collapsing when crossing the river and being attacked while flowing through the river.
Li Yuan climbed the high slope and overlooked Hedong City. Everything in the city was vivid in his mind. When he saw Qu Tutong shrinking in a corner and did not dare to face the battle head-on, Li Yuan was full of confidence.
At some point, Li Yuan thought in his heart that Hedong City was within reach.
However, he was disappointed.
Hedong City is high and thick walls. Under the rule of Qu Tutong, the defenders were well-trained and showed a completely different fighting will from the Sui army in the past.
Li Yuan personally witnessed more than a thousand warriors of his subordinates climbing up the city wall and fighting with the Sui army defending the city in heavy rain.
This is a kind of close combat that is full of blood and fights with life. As the siege side, Li Yuan suffered far greater losses than Qu Tutong. Such cruel scenes as
and personal experience made Li Yuan retreat.
He shouted and stopped his troops.
Li Yuan was old in politics, and he transformed this defeat into a glorious victory.
He said shamelessly to his subordinates, "(Qu Tutong) Field battles are not his strengths, Infant City is good at defending. Our teacher always wins, and people will be careless. If you climb first, there is no way to return. Now we are just demonstrating, and it is not the time to attack the city. How can we use it if we kill people to get the city?"
So, Li Yuan and Qu Tu temporarily maintained a situation of waiting and restraining each other.
Li Yuan has more important things to do.
is separated by a river, which is the hinterland of Guanzhong . Now, it is time for various forces to take sides.
To the south of Taiyuan, except for the Hedong City where Qu Tutong is, it is all down and it is all in Li Yuan's territory.
Now, it depends on the choice of various forces in Hexi . This political trend is much more important than winning a city in Hedong.
Li Yuan was not idle, he began to recruit forces from Hexi and Guanzhong.
He didn't wait too long.
Sun HuaThe first to cross the river to surrender.
He is the head of Feng Yi's rebel army, with four or five thousand men under his command, but he is also a handsome man who has not won the championship in the year, and his speech is simple and straightforward.
Li Yuan was mature and persistent, and lived in the officialdom for a long time. Sun Hua's age, nature and knowledge made Li Yuan look down on him.
Sun Hua keenly felt Li Yuan’s contempt for him. He repeatedly asked Li Yuan to make achievements and serve Li Yuan with practical actions.
Li Yuan was alert in his heart that he might have fallen into a preconceived cognitive vicious circle.
He finally figured it out.
Li Yuan immediately granted Sun Hua a high-ranking official, gave him a great reward, and asked Sun Hua to give him an official position to his subordinates in turn.
Li Yuan knew that as the first rebel army to surrender in Guanzhong, he needed to set a benchmark so that later generations would follow like shadows and as numerous as crucian carp crossing the river.
It’s true that you buy horse bones with a thousand gold coins.
Li Yuan’s strategy is very clear. The message he conveyed was “Sun Hua can be a high-ranking official, and the older elders who have been in the surrender of old people will be even more reused.”
Facts have proved that Li Yuan revitalized the entire situation in Guanzhong with the benchmark Sun Hua.
Sun Hua was overjoyed. Rebellion was a matter of losing one's head. Although he was an official forcing the people to rebel, he confirmed that the crime of rebellion would be cruelly liquidated one day.
But now, it may usher in the second half of your life.
So, Sun Hua returned to Hexi happily and made every effort to prepare Li Yuan’s plan to cross the river.
Li Yuan has been deeply loved by the people. On both sides of the Yellow River, the ships and food are all returned to Li Yuan.
Crossing the river is ready, but the east wind is not available.
And Qu Tutong in Hedong was not idle either. He was indeed a soldier and devoted himself to Yang Guang. Although he was determined to defend Hedong and did not come out, he was just waiting for an opportunity.
If you want to defeat Li Yuan, the best chance is of course to wait for him to attack with all his strength when crossing the river.
Qu Tutong chose the right time.
But he lacks the courage to take all his might, or Li Yuan's main force restrains him, which puts huge pressure on him.
When Li Yuan sent troops to cross the river, Qu Tutong once again showed his attitude of seeking stability. He only sent Sang Xian and the crossing troops to attack Li Yuan's river crossing army.
Moreover, Sang Xianhe was too fond of fighting and ignored the most important crossing asset, ship to destroy Li Yuan.
After the ship was destroyed, even if Li Yuan had the ability to reach the sky, he could only sigh at the Yellow River.
Perhaps Qu Tutong thought that if he was prepared, Li Yuan's river crossing troops had no way to defend and could not withstand the impact of his own cavalry. He wanted to wipe out Li Yuan's river crossing troops.
Perhaps, Qu Tutong still thought about waiting for Li Yuan to fail before reaping this most important strategic resources. After all, relying on water to draw water, ships are the most valuable materials on both sides of the Yellow River.
Qututong is almost achieved.
But the situation changed. The general opposite him was Liu Wenjing , and he brought a mysterious army.
He shouted and stopped his troops.
Li Yuan was old in politics, and he transformed this defeat into a glorious victory.
