In 613, Yang Xuan, feeling that the rebellion had failed, was surrounded by pursuing soldiers, and said to his brother with great remorse: "I refused to listen to Li Mi's words at the beginning, and only then did I end up with this fate today!" Then let the younger brother Yang Jishan kill himself, because at this time there was only one brother left around. Yang Jishan cried bitterly and said, "Big brother, how did I get my hands on it..."
Yang Xuangan was the eldest son of Yang Su, the prime minister, how did he end up in this situation? We have to start with the death of our father Yang Su.
Thinking that year, Yang Xuangan's father Yang Su helped the Sui Emperor to seize the position of crown prince and assisted him in becoming emperor, but he did not expect that he would soon turn his face and not recognize people.
Because Yang Su knew too much and his power was too great, the Sui Emperor looked for opportunities to clean him up one after another. It just so happened that Yang Su was ill, so he refused to take the medicine, hoping that through his own death, the Sui Emperor would release the hatred in his heart and spare his sons. Yang Xuangan watched his father die of pain, and the seeds of hatred had already been planted in his heart. In 613, the Sui Emperor Yang Guang was on the battlefield of Liaodong, while Yang Xuangan was in charge of supervising the transportation of grain and grass in the rear. The Sui Emperor could not get out of the front line, was not the best time to rebel and take revenge?
After Yang Xuan felt that he had raised an army, he immediately invited his young friend Li Mi to the base camp of Liyang (in present-day Henan) and asked him what to do?
Li Mi was also a famous person, and he was very calm, and he said to Yang Xuangan in a deep voice, "Now I have three plans: upper, middle, and lower..."
Yang Xuangan was sweating profusely and asked urgently, "Which three?" You mean it! ”
Li Mi shook his head and said calmly, "Isn't the emperor fighting in Liaodong now?" The best strategy is for us to occupy Hebei and cut off his back road. In this way, he has a strong enemy in front of him, we have us behind him, and we have a great chance of winning. Yang Xuan's brow tightened after listening to it, and there was no reaction.
Li Mi continued, "The middle strategy is to capture Chang'an and control Tongguan in your hands." We are all Guanlong people, and that is our base camp. If we are unfavorable to the imperial court, we can also hold the Tong Pass and save half of the country. Yang Xuan was still indifferent.
Li Mi sighed darkly and said, "The next strategy is to fight Luoyang." Luoyang is the eastern capital and is also very close to us. However, Luoyang has many soldiers and a wide range of soldiers, and the city walls are high and thick, which is not easy to fight. Once the emperor returned from Liaodong with his troops, it was us who were attacked by the enemy on our backs. "It is clear that Li Mi is against doing so.
Yang Xuangan was greatly excited when he heard the next strategy, patted his thigh and said, "This is good! In my opinion, your next policy is the best policy! The emperor took the generals on an expedition, their relatives were in Luoyang, and if we beat Luoyang down, wouldn't they be in a big mess! Let's fight Luoyang! ”
Li Mi listened and shook his head: "No, Luoyang can't fight for a while and a half." After a long time, the emperor rushed back from Liaodong to rescue us, and then we would be surrounded! However, Yang Xuan did not listen, thinking that he had a large number of soldiers in his hands, and his self-confidence had soared, so he had to fight Luoyang first. Li Mi secretly cried bitterly in his heart.
Yang Xuan felt five battles and five victories, and rushed to Luoyang City in one breath, but he could no longer rush. The walls of Luoyang were indeed tall and thick, and they could not be beaten, and Yang Xuangan's third brother was also killed.
At this time, some people advised Yang Xuangan to be called emperor. Yang Xuan was very impressed and asked Li Mi, "Can I now call the emperor okay?" Li Mi was taken aback: "Although you have fought several victorious battles, you have not even occupied a prefecture and a county, and the reinforcements of the imperial court are coming soon. "Yes, you don't even have a territory to be called emperor, so why don't you set up a tent in the wilderness and ascend the throne?"
Yang Xuan was very unhappy after hearing this, smiled awkwardly, and stopped talking. Li Mi was disappointed in Yang Xuan after seeing it.
Luoyang could not fight down, and after a long time, the reinforcements of the imperial court came, and Yang Xuan felt that he was attacked by the enemy and could not hold on. He remembered Li Mi's three plans. The best strategy was impossible, because the Sui Emperor had already withdrawn from Liaodong to fight himself. Then go to Chang'an.
As a result, halfway to the road, there was another moth, and Yang Xuan felt that he could not go. Originally, when passing through Hongnong (present-day Sanmenxia, Henan), Yang Xuangan heard that there was a lot of grain here, and he was moved and wanted to fight a dozen. Coincidentally, Hongnong Taishou Yang Zhiji was a cousin of the Sui Emperor, and of course did not want to see Yang Xuan feel the world. Yang Zhiji judged that Yang Xuanjian must have wanted to fight Chang'an, so he tried to drag him down.
How to drag it? Yang Zhiji knows Yang Xuanquan too well, he is anxious and excited, which is easy to do. Yang Zhiji climbed the city tower and scolded, Yang Xuangan was really angry and jumped to his feet, and ordered a fierce attack on Hongnong.
At this time, Li Mi saw through Yang Zhiji's thoughts and bitterly advised Yang Xuangan: "Soldiers are fast, our goal is Chang'an, but not Hongnong." Once the reinforcements of the imperial court arrive, the hearts of the army will disperse, and this will become our burial place! ”
Yang Xuan didn't listen, scolded me, you have to pay the price! Continuing to fight Hongnong, he did not fight for three consecutive days, and all the reinforcements of the imperial court arrived. As a result, Yang Xuangan was defeated, and his men fled.
Yang Xuan felt that the defeat had been decided, and had to flee, and the imperial army pursued it. In the end, Yang Xuangan ran exhausted, knowing that he would not be able to escape death, and said to his younger brother Yang Jishan with remorse: "Because my brother did not listen to Li Mi's advice, he had today." I have been defeated so that I do not want to be humiliated, so kill me. Yang Jishan tearfully killed his brother and wanted to commit suicide himself, but the Sui army had arrived and captured him.
Yang Xuangan's think tank, Li Mi, was arrested and taken to the Sui Emperor's garrison to prepare for death. With his resourcefulness, of course, he is not willing to sit still, so what will be his fate? #历史 #
