The third emperor of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 121 The Madman
"boom!"

The sound of smashing things came from Chang'an Daxing Palace.Immediately afterwards, Tang Emperor Li Yuan roared: "You bastard, you are deceiving people too much! You are really deceiving people too much. 400 million stones of good food, 150 million taels of gold, and an answer within ten days, why doesn't he grab it?"

Yang Tong's price has been passed from Pei Ju's flying horse to Li Yuan's hands!
But at the same time, Quan Chang Ancheng also knew everything.

No need to guess, Li Yuan knew it was Bei Sui's fault.But what can he do?This was another conspiracy that forced him to follow.

If there is no rumor that he wants to trade with the Bei Sui Dynasty, everything will be over.But now it has been widely known, and everyone regards Li Yuan as the life of the soldiers and a good emperor who does not hesitate to be humiliated.If he sat back and watched the soldiers die because he was not willing to bleed, his situation would be even more critical.

When he entered the customs, when the big officials in Guanlong donated money and food to support him, they were afraid that Li Yuan would not be willing to give important positions, and they all made high-profile announcements of the amount of money and food donated by themselves. If he is given an important position, others will say that Li Yuan is stingy, and I am sorry for the strong support of the powerful and powerful in Guanlong, so he was given a high position, an important position, and a small position!

The nobles in Guanlong are satisfied, and Li Yuan is also satisfied!
All the best!
But now that Yang Tong is playing this game, the numbers reported by the major families before have become the reason why Li Yuan has to trade.

If Yang Tong is greedy and opens his mouth too wide, he still has a reason to refuse.But he wanted the amount to be within his tolerance.

Now the people in Guanzhong know that their 10,000+ soldiers are treated inhumanely in Bingzhou, and they are all assigned to build roads in Queshu Valley. This job is undoubtedly the hardest, most tiring and dangerous thing in the world. It's a pity that after working for ten hours a day, I can barely eat a bowl of soupy rice porridge!And it will take another ten years to practice. Can my relatives persist in this inhuman life for ten years?
Thinking of my son, husband, and father living a life that would be worse than death, I asked the people to cry outside the Tai Chi Palace every day.

The Tai Chi Palace has become a funeral parlor.

Li Shentong, Li Shenfu, Li Shuliang, and Li Shuliang's family members even took advantage of the clan's privileges and cried to the palace.

"Father, what should we do?" Li Jiancheng was ashamed.

Li Yuan's originally green face turned livid again, he opened his mouth, unable to utter a word, now not only Guan Zhong, but even the whole world are watching him laughing.

Yang Tong was clearly cutting his flesh.But he knew it was impossible not to agree.

If you don't agree, the morale of the army will collapse.

And fuck the world.

Li Yuan pondered for a long time, and said: "There is still some time, you should contact Pei Ju quickly to see if he can cut it in half."

"It's useless!" Li Jiancheng said with a wry smile: "I have thought about it carefully. Yang Tong knew that we were fighting Xue Ju, so he opened his mouth on purpose. The people of the world reported that the morale in the front was affected by this, and it was extremely sluggish. Now he doesn't dare to take the initiative to attack! It won't do us any good if we procrastinate, and what's more terrible is that every day we procrastinate, there will be an extra 50 shi of grain and 10 taels of gold. And no matter how much we procrastinate, we will eventually have to admit it."

"Then we don't need to eat anymore?" Li Yuan stared at Li Jiancheng with two blood-red eyes. He didn't blame Li Jiancheng. He only blamed Pei Ji for being too incompetent. It was taken at once, and there were countless food and military equipment there, and now all of them fell into Yang Tong's hands, and those soldiers became sharp weapons against him in a blink of an eye.

Li Jiancheng was speechless.

"Tell me, can we hide soldiers in the grain and take the opportunity to take down Hedong County." Li Yuan had a sudden thought.

Li Jiancheng was speechless. With such a simple truth, wouldn't people be on guard?But he didn't want to hurt his father, so he said euphemistically, "First Pei Renji's [-] troops were stationed in Hedong County, and now Li Jing's nearly [-] troops have arrived in Linfen, which adds up to more than [-] troops! I'm afraid it will be very difficult. If Yang Tong In a fit of anger, take out these more than [-] captives! In the end, we are the ones who suffer.”

Li Yuan's body trembled, and he was stunned for a moment, then turned around and looked at the helpless Li Jiancheng, his shoulders collapsed feebly.

"Go and prepare! At least, we can get an army of 10,000+ and regain the hearts of the people." Li Yuan comforted himself.

"Here!" Li Jiancheng resigned.

"Yang Tong...! I, Li Yuan, swear against you!"

Li Yuan's eyes were shattered, his face was distorted and ferocious, his body was swaying, his eyes were full of venomous light, and he hissed and howled. The shrill and sharp voice was as piercing as a sharp knife scraping steel, which pierced Li Jiancheng's ear drums with pain. .

The Guanzhong occupied by Li Tang is very small, only the four counties of Feng Yi, Jingguang, Fufeng, and Beidi. The land here is very barren due to over-development, and the yield per mu is very low. Relying on the canal to transport grain from the south to support, now that soldiers are everywhere, water transport has long been cut off, and finding new grain production areas is the most realistic problem that Li Yuan needs to face. In the previous four-way battle, apart from Li Yuan's blind arrogance, expanding his living space is also a major reason , after two defeats, Li Yuan took the lead.Under the persuasion of Li Jiancheng, Liu Wenjing and others, they aimed their firepower at Xue Ju and Li Gui in the west.Once these two warlords are defeated, not only will they get horse breeding land and good war horses, but they will also have vast grain production land, which is also the first national policy.

The second step is to attack Liang Shidu and Guo Zihe on the Guannei Road. After all, compared with the dangerous Bashu, the flat Guannei Road is easier to fight, and this is the Dahetao area, where the land is fertile and grain-producing powerhouse.However, Liang Shidu and Guo Zihe had received the support of Shibi Khan, and each had a large number of cavalry. Therefore, the prerequisite for Li Tang's steady victory over the two was to obtain enough horses.

But when Yang Tong came out like this, he not only took 400 million shi of grain and 150 million taels of gold that he regarded as his life, causing turmoil in the territory, and even the morale of the troops fighting on the front line was greatly damaged. The transaction' caused consequences, which seriously hindered Li Tang's progress.

At the same time, Li Yuan also knew that once he fulfilled Yang Tong's wish, there would be more rumors, such as Li Yuan's weakness, Li Yuan's incompetence, and Li Yuan's cowardice. If there is no more gains, will the Guanlong dignitaries still support him?Won't!

Definitely not
The aristocratic family who has always put profit above all else will immediately launch a new spokesperson to replace Li Yuan when there is no hope in sight.Any marriage and family relationship are deceptive nonsense.

As Li Tang's master, Li Yuan only felt that he had let Yang Tong slap countless times.

It was the first slap to instigate Wang Wei and Gao Junya to evacuate the Taiyuan treasury and Jinyang Palace’s money and military equipment, the second slap was the canonization of the eldest grandson Wugou, the third slap was to take away [-] elite soldiers, and the third slap was to take away Yang You. The fourth slap was the fifth slap for announcing that he had written a letter to Shibi Qijiang... By now, if Li Yuan still didn't know that Yang Tong was targeting him, it would be a ghost.

Today, it was Yang Tong again who robbed him of a lot of food and gold...

Yang Tong is like a tarsal maggot, disgusting him everywhere, squeezing him, making him lose everything he should have...

Li Yuan's face was ashen, thinking about the many grievances and grievances with Yang Tong, in his heart there was nothing but hatred: he would not think about why he rebelled against the Yang family, but he just thought it was Yang Tong's fault, and it was all Yang Tong's fault. Dong's fault.

Even breathing, drinking, eating, and urinating are all Yang Tong's fault...

Such a person should not live in this world...

Fighting with him?

This, I dare not.

"Madman. He's a lunatic!" Li Yuan's face was pale, thinking of suffering everywhere, thinking of Yang Tong's amazing achievements, and thinking of being stared at by such a lunatic, Li Yuan felt a sense of fear from the bottom of his heart...
