    (Thanks to Mouse Love mm, Eternal Dream, the 1st Guards Tank Brigade, Profyellow, and Olytis for your support. Thank you very much!) In early April of the 19th year of Emperor Kaihuang¡¯s reign in the Sui Dynasty, at the foot of Huaihuang City, Yi Feng led the seven surrendered troops.  Thousands of Turkic surrender troops and 30,000 Han troops came out of the fortress and formed a counter-siege against the Nili tribe with the soldiers and horses in Huaihuang City.  More than 100,000 soldiers and horses surrounded the Nili army of less than 50,000, and densely packed troops set up camps one after another.  Nili was surrounded by dozens of military forts in Huaihuang, and he was completely trapped.  But at this moment, Yi Feng suddenly received an urgent report from Youzhou City, stating that Emperor Daxing of the Sui Dynasty had passed away.  After receiving the news, Yi Feng was extremely shocked.  In the Chinese army camp, Yi Feng convened a high-level meeting, in which all military and battalion-level generals, as well as civilian officials above the seventh rank, were present.  The atmosphere in the military tent was very depressing, and everyone was silent, seeming to still be digesting this unbelievable fact.  The information was an urgent letter from Fei Ge sent back by the Special Branch Daxing Department. The letter was sent back to Youzhou by Fei Ge, and then sent from Youzhou to Huaihuang.  Teko's intelligence gathering ability is very strong. Just two days ago, on the last day of March, when Yi Feng launched the final attack on Kuhezhen's headquarters in Guizhou, an even bigger thing happened in the capital.  The Teko Capital Division sent back an urgent secret message, and the emperor suddenly died that night.  And this is not the most shocking thing. The most shocking thing is that after the emperor died, King Yang Xiu of Shu urgently summoned hundreds of officials into the palace, and then announced the emperor's last edict to them.  In the imperial edict, the emperor decreed that Yang Yong's position as crown prince should be abolished, and Yang Lin's position as grandson should be abolished. The emperor changed the title of the prince in the imperial edict and established Yang Xiu, the king of Shu, as the crown prince.  The imperial edict was followed by the new crown prince Yang Xiu.  No one expected that such a thing would happen. The emperor's death was too sudden, and the emperor's edict was even more unbelievable. Yang Yong and Yang Lin were suddenly abolished without any warning, and Yang Guang was not established.  Instead, Yang Xiu was made the new crown prince.  If the emperor is still alive, then although the change of prince is a bit difficult to understand, it can still be accepted reluctantly. But now the emperor suddenly died, and then there was such a posthumous edict. Who can believe it?  Hundreds of officials were suspicious.  You can face the doubts of hundreds of officials.  However, Yang Xiu had already expected it. He sent troops to blockade the palace city, pretending to be the emperor's edict, sent people to change the deployment of the imperial guards of the capital, and took over the defense of the palace city and the capital.  And left all officials in the palace.  On the first day of April, Yang Xiu and Chen soldiers gathered together to announce the bad news of the emperor's death. They mourned the emperor Daxing and at the same time ascended the throne.  On that day, Yang Xiu honored Queen Dugu as the empress dowager, named Changsun Lan's daughter Changsun as the queen, and named his legitimate son Yang Ming as the prince.  At the same time, Yang Yong was named acting king.  Yang Lin became the king of Zhao and summoned the second king of Zhao and the king of Jin back to the capital.  Teko was well-informed, it was only one day away.  The huge changes in Daxing of the capital had already been passed to Yi Feng's hands, and at this time, the edict sent by Yang Liang had not yet left the pass.  After the news was reported to Zhu Wenwu, everyone¡¯s first reaction was that it was impossible, and their second reaction was that it was absolutely impossible.  No one could accept the fact that the emperor who had just turned sixty died suddenly and suddenly without any warning. When the emperor was dying, he actually left an edict to depose the prince and grandson and establish the king of Shu as the prince.  What kind of joke is this?  Huangfu Chuan was the first to speak out, "Why was the King of Shu in Beijing at that time?" This veteran minister said.  He was originally chosen by the emperor as Yang Liang's assistant minister, but unfortunately Yang Liang never listened to his teachings.  After the Taiyuan Incident, he followed Yi Feng and relied heavily on him. Now he is very conscientious and considers Yi Feng.  It was Li Mi who answered on behalf of Yi Feng. After receiving this shocking letter, he immediately made a lot of preparations and found a lot of useful information from the information reported by the intelligence department during this period.  "Emperor Daxing ordered the King of Shu to enter the capital a few days ago. According to intelligence, Emperor Daxing ordered the King of Shu to enter the capital in order to let the King of Shu feudalize the southeast, establish the Ryukyu Kingdom on Ryukyu Island in the sea east of Fuzhou, and change the title of King of Shu to King of Ryukyu.  , then the imperial court removed the Qinzhou Grand Administrative Office and established the Longyou Province in Longyou instead. It appointed chief envoys, criminal prosecutors, and general commanders to take charge of the civil affairs, justice, and military power of Longyou Province, and commanded Longyou.  Zhuzhou. Immediately afterwards, Emperor Daxing died suddenly, and he ordered the king of Shu to inherit the throne. "This is a false edict!" Grandson Xima Li Gang also immediately shouted, "The king of Shu is rebellious."  Regicide, usurping the throne, Your Highness, I request Your Highness to mourn immediately, let the three armies wear filial piety, and raise troops to kill the traitor Yang Xiu!" "Accidents always happen everywhere," Yi Feng thought while rubbing his temples.  Who would have thought that the prince and the king of Jin were fighting fiercely, and the king of Han was occasionally involved in it. Counting him as the emperor's grandson, everyone thought it was complicated enough.  Finally, the King of Han was eliminated. At this time, no one could have imagined that the King of Shu suddenly jumped out and was so bold and crazy.  Regicide to seize the throne.    What a brave guy, Yi Feng can only give this kind of evaluation to Yang Xiu's crazy behavior.  Bold, yet stupid.  Even if he takes advantage of an empty opportunity, succeeds in regicide and takes control of the capital, so what, he has no chance of winning at all, Yang Xiu is seeking his own death.  Yang Xiu has been stationed in Shuzhong since the founding of the country, and he has been there for nearly twenty years. He may have managed a lot of power in Shuzhong, but in the capital, he is not enough.  This time, he only had such a chance because all the troops and horses in the court were outside, and the prince, king, grandson, prime minister and generals were basically outside.  Yang Xiu committed suicide. Lui Feng didn't care or care, but his crazy behavior had completely disrupted the current situation.  ¡°Anyway, the emperor is dead.  "Your Highness, we should immediately send troops south to attack the rebels." Yang Xiong also spoke on the side.  As a very important person in the clan, he had already begun to think quickly about the current situation after being shocked.  Undoubtedly, the emperor's death and final edict were full of doubts. Even if Yang Xiu became emperor, he would not be able to secure his position.  Next, the kings must raise their troops and fight back to the capital. A real contest begins. Whoever has stronger soldiers and horses will be the winner.  Without the emperor's intervention, it all depends on their own strength.  In Yang Xiong's opinion, there is no doubt that the lineage of the prince and grandson is stronger.  The King of Jin had always had a great chance of winning because the emperor and his wife were leaning towards him, but now that the emperor is dead and the queen is accused at the hands of Yang Xiu, her opinion is no longer important.  Now, it depends on who has the strongest troops and horses.  The prince and Gao Jong held the middle army with 250,000 troops and horses. Although Taisun's East Route army did not have many troops, Yang Xiong knew very well the strength in Taisun's hands now. There were more than 100,000 Huaihuang troops, plus  With the tens of thousands of Youzhou troops and the 70,000 newly surrendered Turkic troops, Taisun has no less than 200,000 troops.  If the prince and the grandson join forces, then King Jin is no match at all, and Yang Xiu is no match.  After calculating the pros and cons, Yang Xiong already knew which side he should stand on.  Yi Feng is also considering the situation at hand and how he should decide.  Want to unite with the prince?  "Yang Xiu is a regicide, and everyone will punish him. Please write an appeal to Mr. Xue to reveal to the world Yang Xiuzhi's crime of regicide and usurping the throne, so that the world can jointly punish him." No matter what kind of decision you have to make, but  There is no doubt about one thing, and that is to deny Yang Xiu.  Regardless of whether Yang Xiu committed regicide or not, whether there is evidence or not, these are not important. What is important is that Yang Xiu must be denied as soon as possible.  "Should we mourn the entire army immediately?" Liu Wenjing asked.  Yi Feng pondered, but finally shook his head, "No, don't announce the funeral for now, wait until the envoy from the capital comes to inform us, let's take down Nili first." At this time, Yi Feng still has to deal with the Nili army.  It surprised everyone.  However, Yi Feng felt that there was nothing wrong with this. The crusade against Yang Xiu was not in a hurry. Comprehensive arrangements had to be made. Ni Li was already surrounded by him. If he let go at this time, it would be a failure halfway.  How could you just give up on the meat of your mouth? Once the news of the emperor's visit was announced, the morale of the army might drop sharply, and Nili might resist again after finding out.  What he wants is the current momentum to force Nili to surrender.  For this reason, he was willing to offer some preferential conditions to Nili.  Yi Feng personally set the conditions for surrender and asked Liu Wenjing to take Nili¡¯s brother Po Shiteqin to recruit him.  With the generals withdrawing, Yi Feng was left alone to think about the situation at hand. How should he take the next step?  As Yang Xiong said, if he joins forces with Yang Yong at this time, no one can stop them with their nearly 500,000 troops.  Neither Yang Xiu nor Yang Guang could stop this huge force.  But there is also a problem. Is he going to single-handedly send Yang Yong to the throne of emperor?  If he helped Yang Yong win the throne, Yang Yong would not thank him.  Once Yang Yong takes control of the situation, he may have to cross the river to demolish the bridge and kill the donkey.  From now on, every step is crucial, and Yi Feng must make a decision after careful consideration.  Li Mi entered the tent, "Your Highness." Yi Feng nodded to him, and Li Mi looked around carefully, "Your Highness, if you continue to break the law, you will be disturbed. Your Highness now has 200,000 elite soldiers and generals, and he has the latest  According to the news, if we rush south now, we will reach Datong before Gao Jiong gets the news from Beijing." "Master, if you have anything to say, just say it directly." "Your Highness, I have three strategies for you.  "What is the best strategy?" "The best strategy is to strike first, Your Highness, we must act immediately while the prince is still in Taiyuan, and Gao Jiaohe Ruobi and others do not know the news from the capital." Li Mi looked at Yi Feng, his eyes flashing.  Overcoming the ardor and enthusiasm, he lowered his voice and whispered urgently, "We were able to rush to Shuozhou at lightning speed, control Gao Jiong and He Ruobi and seize the military power of the Central Route Army, and then we went south to Taiyuan.??, then control the prince.  Then he took the prince to the south and took control of the King of Jin in Jinzhou. By then, His Highness would have an army of 500,000 men. Using the name of the prince and the King of Jin, he would march to the capital city, eradicate Yang Xiu's rebels, and then support him.  The prince succeeded to the throne.  Although the crown prince will ascend the throne, the entire capital will be in the hands of His Highness.  At that time, His Highness held the Emperor hostage to command the world. After the situation was stabilized, he would allow the Emperor to meditate on His Highness, and everything would fall into place.  "(To be continued)
