It was originally a place where people in the imperial state and counties were filled with resentment.  Now, for the crusade against Goguryeo, millions of civilian servants have been summoned The navy does not have infantry, they rely more on tools - ships.  This is the reason why the civilian men employed by the navy of more than 200,000 are almost half of the civilian men employed by the infantry of more than 110,000.  The imperial general who commanded the Qingzhou Navy, the chief, the southern general Liu Fang, and the second-in-command, the western general Shi Wansui, both were eager to make contributions, supervising the shipbuilding day and night, hoping to set off from the port as soon as possible and conquer Goguryeo.  When they got anxious, they broke down The civilian craftsmen who built the sea-going ships stood in the water day and night. Their skins were ulcerated, maggots were born from the waist down, and many people died.  The resentment and resentment accumulated until the appearance of a person or a poem broke out.  The man's name was Wang Bo, a commoner from Zouping County, Qi County, Qingzhou. He was nothing unusual, at least a bit rogue and vulgar in character. He occasionally peeked at the widow taking a bath and molested the little girl next door.  He gained a bad reputation as a troubled country man.  The imperial court issued a corvee order, and he successfully asked people to throw it in, becoming an indicator of the number of children.  Within a few months, Wang Bo saw people around him fall down and die tragically one by one.  Unable to avoid feeling sad about the death of a rabbit and a fox, he decided to escape.  Wang Bo fled, but he returned to his hometown. As a result Liu Fang, the general who conquered the south, and Shi Wansui, the general who suppressed the west, felt that there were too many deserters.  He has already commanded his troops to arrest him.  Wang Bo did not dare to return, and he hid in Changbai Mountain in Qing Dynasty (today's Changbai Mountain in Shandong Province) in fear like a bereaved dog.  It is indeed difficult for the empire to hunt down in the deep mountains and old forests, but there is no food!  Wang Bo was so hungry that he began to gather people who were also deserting.  To rob, to plunder Gradually, they were surprised to find that they had grown to thousands of people!  At this time, Wang Bo became bolder and called himself "Zhi Shilang". He was inspired and wrote a song "Wuxiang Liaodong Wandering Death Song".  The poem says: In front of Changbai Mountain, Zhi Shilang wears a pure red cotton crotch on his back.  The long branches invade half of the sky, and the round sword shines in the sun.  They go up the mountain to eat deer and go down the mountain to eat cattle and sheep.  Suddenly, when I heard the officers and soldiers were arriving, I raised my sword and swung forward.  For example, Liaodong died.  What harm is caused by beheading?  Wang Bo's poems moved countless people who shared his suffering. Even Meng Rang, the leader of the deserters from another part of Changbai Mountain, also came to join him.  In just a few days, Wang Bo's strength rapidly expanded to more than 30,000 people.  ¡­ ¡­ ¡­ ¡­ ¡­ The second year of Chengtian, July 15th.  Wu Fan, who was in Yangzhou, learned through intelligence lines that Wang Bo had called on the people to resist the empire's frequent military service, including the song "The Death Song of Wuxiang Liaodong".  Wu Fan and Uncle Guo drank wine together and immediately became very happy: "What a poem! What a poem! Hahaha so talented!" Guo Fengxiao squinted his eyes and said, "Master, what do you think is good? Where is the talent?"  Wu Fan coughed seriously and stopped laughing.  Said: "I am a bandit who has seen through the world in Zhangqiu, Shandong. Look at my handsome red shirt and brocade overalls. I hold my long spear in my hand and stretch it into the air, and the blade shines brighter than the sun! I go up the mountain to act as a deer.  For food, go down the mountain to eat the cattle and sheep of the big dog! If the officers and soldiers arrive, I don¡¯t want to go to Liaodong to kill them, so what if they chop off my head?¡± He sighed!  , said: "The words of this poem are clear and the sentences are catchy. Although it is not gorgeous and beautiful, it is better than the simple and heroic artistic conception!" Guo Jia stared at Wu Fan in a daze.  Wu couldn't hold it in any longer: "Hahaha the only drawback is that the second grade is too high hahaha" Uncle Guo was curious and asked: "What is the second grade?" Wu Fan was stunned and touched his nose.  , considered for a long time, and said: "A very very self-righteous um advanced animal." He waved his hands impatiently, still overjoyed: "Oh! Don't care about such details!" Guo Fengxiao didn't  Like Wu FanAlthough he was smiling heartlessly, he looked serious. He was sipping some wine here and there, his mind spinning rapidly.  Wait for Wu Fan to be quiet.  Guo Jia said seriously: "As soon as the war begins, there will be internal and external troubles. I have said before that the empire will definitely cause huge turmoil due to the conquest of Goguryeo. It is a prophecy and it has come true." After a pause, he continued: "  Just like Chen Sheng, Wu Guang and "Princes, Generals and Prime Ministers" in the late Qin and early Han Dynasties, Wang Bo, Meng Rang and "Wuxiang Liaodong Death Song" will also set off a frenzy of changes in the current situation!  Two hundred years of stable rule by the Yang family! The opportunity that the lord has been waiting for is here!" Wu Fan licked his lips and said, "You are right, but Wang Bo and Meng Rang are not enough!" Uncle Guo said firmly:  "Yang Xuangan!" Wu Fan blinked and said, "That's right! I've planned for him a long time ago! "Xunzi. Kingship" says, 'Water can carry a boat, but water can overturn it.' Since ancient times, the people's support has been against the general trend, and it's a pity!  After all, the common people are just common people, and they cannot represent anything, especially in the current empire. The saying goes, 'The Great Sui Dynasty is the Great Sui Dynasty of the aristocratic families, not the Great Sui Dynasty of the Tian family royal family, let alone the common people', only the Great Sui Dynasty of the aristocratic families.  Only when the nobles and the Sui Dynasty are separated will the world be in chaos!" Guo Jia raised his eyebrows and said, "The battle of Goguryeo?" Wu Fan nodded and admitted, "Yes! The emperor hopes to weaken the military power of the noble families.  The royal rule laid the foundation for a stable transition for the prince when he did not have a few years to live. The aristocratic nobles were not fools. When they discovered the true nature of the Goguryeo War, they would definitely resist.  The noble families are able to achieve today's glory because they control more than 30% of the empire's troops. They know the foundation. "There are some things that Wu Fan told Guo Fengxiao frankly, and there are some things that he did not. However, this did not prevent his astounding wisdom from guessing.  .  Uncle Guo thought deeply and said nothing.  ¡­ ¡­ ¡­ ¡­ ¡­ The second year of Chengtian, July 16th.  The rapid expansion of Wang Bo and Meng Rang's rebel army was staggering. They gathered nearly 50,000 people and stationed in Taishan County with great momentum. They openly fought several battles with the officers and soldiers who captured the deserters, and even won more than they lost.  !  Liu Fang, the general who conquered the south, and Shi Wansui, the general who guarded the west, received the emperor's imperial edict and were about to go to Goguryeo. They had no time to pay attention to Wang Bo and Meng Rang, so they hurriedly reported the situation to the emperor Yang Kui who had arrived in Liaodong.  Holding the memorial in his left hand, Yang Kui's whole body was shaking angrily, and his face was so dark that ink was dripping from it.  In the Nanliang Restoration Uprising, there were more than 70 armies and more than 700,000 participants. Four people proclaimed themselves emperors, which was vigorous and noisy.  How long ago did it happen?  Only two and a half months!  And damn, there are unruly people who are unwilling to serve the empire and cause trouble.  In his mind, Yang Kui scolded Liu Fang and Shi Wansui for being useless trash, and at the same time he had to think about how to quell the rebellion as soon as possible. After all, he had sent a vanguard army into Goguryeo to confront the Goguryeo army, and the war was imminent.  After thinking about it, Yang Kui thought of one person, Zhang Guo and Zhang Xutuo.  Zhang Xutuo originally guarded Yanmen County in Bingzhou. When the Sui Dynasty conquered Goguryeo, when he hired people, he expected that the Sui Dong Turks would be called Wu Fanping and Dulan Khan's head was beaten by Wu Fan. There should be nothing there.  Yang Kui sent him over if he threatened.  Yang Kui mainly focused on Zhang Xutuo's background. He was poor and poor, but he refused to surrender. He joined the army to serve the country and fought bravely. He was a typical person from a poor family worth cultivating.  Yang Kui made up his mind and asked Zhang Xutuo to capture Wang Bo and Meng Rang and make great achievements. After the Battle of Goguryeo, he could be supported to enter the upper echelons of the empire and become the new blood of the new generation.  Twenty thousand cavalry and a Qingzhou army, horse and tiger talisman were given to Zhang Xutuo by Yang Kui.  Since then, Zhang Xutuo has embarked on a journey against heaven and a path to becoming a famous general.  Yang Kui safely forgot about Wang Bo and Meng Rang, and focused on the proposition he had never solved - "How to make the imperial army of more than 1.3 million suffer a disastrous defeat at the hands of the Goguryeo coalition forces, which numbered less than 100,000." Sometime  With a flash of inspiration, Yang Kui determined three points.     one.  Order your generals not to make any relevant combat decisions without authorization, and must report to him first before obeying orders.  This would make the Sui army very passive on the battlefield. Every time the generals made a decision, they would first send people to report to him who was far behind, thus delaying the military situation.  Goguryeo's army had enough time to reorganize and counterattack.     two.  Abandon those who are stable, well-known, and good at fighting, such as General Wei Xiaokuan of the Left, and use more mediocre fools who are greedy for merit and have a rush to advance.     three.  Send a few people to Goguryeo.  The third point Yang Kui thinks is the most important is that he can underestimate Gao Goulien.    The role of the few people sent to Goguryeo is to help Goguryeo defeat the Sui Dynasty. These people must be loyal and capable. Yang Kui found the seven Greedy Wolf Guards of the late Emperor Guangdi scattered among the four guards in Luoyang.  , he was glad that he had not disposed of these seven, and they came in handy.  Yang Kui breathed a sigh of relief when he secretly ordered the seven Greedy Wolf Guards to defect.  Yang Kui then thought of his Greedy Wolf Guards The Imperial Governor's Mansion has three guards under its jurisdiction, namely Yingyang Guards, Huangmen Guards, and Greedy Wolf Guards.  Ying Yangwei is the emperor¡¯s eagle dog, Huangmenwei is the emperor¡¯s eyes and ears, and Greedy Wolf Guard is the emperor¡¯s sword.  The leader of Ying Yang Wei was the general of Ying Yang Zhonglang during the reign of the late Emperor Guang. He should have been replaced by Yang Kui, but he did not.  (To be continued.) xh123?¡­
