    Chapter 2715: Yang Guang''s desperate bets caused trouble in the Qiang Order


    Xining and Xianmei were also captured by the Qin army, and reinforcements from Haizhou and Xiliang were blocked. The news that they could not come to support Daxing in the short term was naturally blocked by Yang Guang.


    After all, it’s not OK to not block it.


    Outside Daxing City, although the 110,000 Qin troops surrounded the city, the Sui soldiers in Daxing City did not feel any timid.


    The reason why the Sui army was very motivated and dared to fight with the Qin army was mainly because most people felt that Daxing City could definitely be defended.


    After all, Daxing is the most powerful city in Liangzhou. The city is high and thick, easy to defend but difficult to attack. In addition, there are still 45,000 defenders in the city, tens of thousands of civilians, and enough food and grass to eat for a year. The reinforcements from Haizhou and Xiliang are also coming soon.


    Under such circumstances, even if the Qin army outside the city had as many as 110,000 troops, and their troops were more than twice the total number of Daxing defenders, they still did not think that the Qin army could capture Daxing.


    Among the many conditions that can defend Daxing, everything else is secondary, and only reinforcements from Haizhou and Xiliang are the main ones.


    Once the Daxing defenders knew that the connection between Daxing City and Haizhou and Xiliang had been completely cut off by the Qin army and the reinforcements from both places could not come, it would be obvious that the Daxing defenders could not repel the Qin army alone, and it would be only a matter of time to break the city.


    By then, even if the Qin army did not take the initiative to attack, there would be chaos within Daxing, after all, no one was willing to die.


    This is also the reason why Yang Guang had to block the news.


    But Yang Guang can block the news from the subordinates, but he cannot hide it from senior officials such as Gao Yang and Yang Su. First, he cannot do this, and second, he cannot hide it.


    After Gao Yang and Yang Su knew about it, they suddenly realized that they had many doubts about the Qin army''s actions. Now that they learned that Haizhou and Xiliang were also attacked, all the confusion in their hearts was solved at once.


    No wonder the Qin army dared to open the Western Front battlefield to attack the Sui Kingdom while the war between the Wei, Song and Ming dynasties began. It turned out that the Qin army had already set up a plan and lured the Sui Kingdom to get into the trap step by step. Finally, they bet on this blow and finally got the final shot.


    Although the Qin Dynasty is also gambled, once it succeeds, the threat from the West will be gone. Even if it fails, it can still cause heavy damage to the Sui Kingdom. Therefore, whether it succeeds or not, the Qin Dynasty will not suffer any losses.


    On the other hand, even if the Sui Kingdom can escape this disaster, it will definitely be severely damaged, and if it cannot escape, it will lose all territory outside the Western Regions.


    Therefore, when the Qin Dynasty started gambling, the Sui State could not afford to gamble at all.


    One thing is that Gao Yang and Yang Su were puzzled at first, but they still figured it out quickly.


    The four Qin troops attacked the Sui Dynasty had at least more than 200,000. If these troops were used on the Eastern Front battlefield, it would be basically a situation of flat push. The three kingdoms of Wei, Song and Ming dynasties did not have much power to fight back.


    At first, Gao Yang and Yang Su didn''t understand, but they figured it out quickly.


    That''s because the Qin Dynasty has absolute confidence. Even if it doesn''t use the more than 200,000 troops in the west and relying solely on the eastern front, it can still destroy all the Wei, Song and Ming dynasties.


    When encountering opponents like Daqin who have a deep foundation and are good at hiding, even Gao Yang and Yang Su were completely helpless because they didn''t know if Li Jing had any other moves.


    Yang Guang hopes that Gao Yang and Yang Su will give him some advice. Even if they cannot solve the current dilemma, they will at least not be able to continue to be passive. However, seeing that both of them were frowning and contemplating and not speaking for a long time, they became more and more disappointed.


    Yang Guang even felt that he was a little bit in danger. After all, this was already an almost unsolvable situation of trapping the dragon. How could the wisdom of mortals be able to crack it?


    Yang Guang can finally understand the powerlessness when Zhang Jiao was trapped in Luoyang.


    The last time the Dragon Sleeping happened was during the Yellow Turban Rebellion.


    Ying Hao''s army, Guiguzi, used the whole world as chessboard, the entire Yongzhou as bait, and millions of soldiers and civilians as chess pieces. In the end, the great wise and good teacher Zhang Jiao died in Luoyang, completely interrupting the rise of the Yellow Turbans.


    The great man who almost overthrew a little bit, Guiguzi was understandable to deal with him with the trap of dragons, but Yang Guang was just a prince of Xiliang. Compared with Zhang Jiao, he could only be regarded as a dragon at most.


    The trapped dragon is used to kill the real dragon? Yang Guang himself thought that Li Jing looked down on him too much, and he was really not worthy.


    Yang Guang was self-deprecating, but it was impossible to make him surrender. There was no other reason. He had a grudge against Daqin to kill his father, so he would never surrender. Moreover, with his ambition, he would not surrender to anyone.


    After the meeting, Yang Guang locked himself up again and racked his brains to think about how to break the deadlock, but the more he thought about it, the more angry he became.


    Ying Hao not only murdered his father, but now he wants to destroy his Great Sui Dynasty, which is simply too much.


    The strong resentment and unwillingness actually advanced Yang Guang’s skill ‘family hatred’.


    [Dingdong, Yang Guang''s skill "family hatred" has been advanced to "national hatred".


    National hatred: It has advanced from the "family hatred", with the price of one year''s life, each of the five-dimensional attributes is longer;]


    The condition for the launch of the "family hatred" is to have a lifespan of two years and permanently reduce 1 charm and 1 force at the cost of permanently reducing the commander and political attributes.


    In contrast, the "national hatred" can only be exchanged for a longer five-dimensional attributes at the cost of one year''s life. Not only does it have a stronger effect, but the side effects are also much smaller;


    Although national hatred and family hatred are both hatred, they are completely different intents, so the gap between them is also clear at a glance.


    [Dingdong, Yang Guang''s skill "National Feud" is activated, and his life span is reduced by one year, and the five-dimensional attribute is permanent +1;


    Current Yang Guang: Commander 100 (+10), Force 79 (-6), Intelligence 94 (+4), Politics 100 (+10), Charm 98 (+3)]


    Yang Guang had previously misunderstood that his father Yang Jian''s death was harmed by Li Shimin, and he was expelled from Guanzhong by Li Shimin. Under all the stimulation, he hated Li Shimin to the core. The eight "family hatred" he launched were all targeting Li Shimin.


    In other words, Yang Guang has reduced his lifespan by 16 years.


    Now Yang Guang has launched another ''national hatred'', and the target is naturally Ying Hao, which has accumulated a total of 17 years of life.


    Yang Guang in official history only lived to be 49 years old, and now in his thirties, he has been reduced by 17 years of life. In this way, he may not have a few years to live.


    [Dingdong, Yang Guang''s skill "National Feud" is activated, and his life span is reduced by one year, and the five-dimensional attribute is permanent +1;


    Currently Yang Guang: Commander 100 (+10), Force 80 (-5), Intelligence 95 (+5), Politics 100 (+10), Charm 99 (+4)]????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????


    Obviously, the "national hatred" has its limit. After upgrading the personal attributes to the golden level, even if it is reduced, it cannot be added. Only by relying on one''s own or great achievements can it continue to improve.


    Yang Guang had no way to break the deadlock before, but when his political attributes exceeded 100 and his intellectual attributes reached 95 points, a crazy and bold idea appeared in his mind, and this method was to go all out.


    Yang Guang had always lacked courage before, but if he was facing a situation of trapping dragons, he decided to do his best to fight for the rest of his life, so that he could be worthy of his reputation as the King of Sui.


    The next day, Yang Guang convened think tanks such as Gao Yang, Yang Su, Cheng Gongying, Ban Gu, Zu Yi, Li Delin to discuss the feasibility of his plan to burn his boats.


    Everyone was stunned after seeing Yang Guang. They just disappeared overnight. Yang Guang''s hair was half white. God knows what psychological journey he had experienced that night?


    Although Yang Guang''s hair was half white, he was in very good spirits, his eyes were full of firmness, and he immediately told everyone that he had thought about it for a night before he could break the deadlock.


    But after everyone heard this, Cheng Gongying, Ban Gu and Li Delin immediately stood up and expressed their opposition.


    Although Gao Yang, Yang Su and Zu Feng did not directly object, their faces were full of shock and entanglement, and they were obviously scared by Yang Guang''s plan.


    What kind of strategy did Yang Guang propose to break the situation, which made the advisers under his command respond so much?


    The strategy that Yang Guang thought of was to break the deadlock was to decide to issue the order to resolve the Qiang Dynasty.


    Yang Guang believed that if he wanted to break the Dragon Strip in Daxing, he had to break the Qin army''s blockade of Haizhou and Xiliang. As long as reinforcements arrived in Daxing, Daxing''s Dragon Strip in Daxing would naturally take over.


    But the Qin army has both the troops in Xining and Xianmei. Although the specific number is unknown, it is at least about 100,000.


    Even in Haizhou, which has 100,000 reinforcements, after Lun Qinling led the Tubo army to arrive, he could not expel Meng Tian and support Daxing in the short term.


    In addition, the Sui Kingdom has now given all its money, and there is no force to adjust or borrow.


    Yang Guang thought about it all night and found that only the Qiang tribe could still get help, so he decided to issue the order to release the Qiang clan and use the Qiang people to consume the Qin army.


    What is the Qiang Order? As the name suggests, it is naturally to lift various restrictions on the Qiang people.


    After the Qiang people were destroyed by the Sui and Tang dynasties, because the Qiang people were wild and difficult to tame, both the Tang and Sui countries had imposed extremely strict bans on the Qiang people to control the Qiang people, such as:


    The Qiang people cannot marry Han girls, cannot participate in the imperial examinations, cannot go to business, and must not leave ten miles around the village;


    One person rebels and the whole family is in charge;


    And prohibitions on joining the army without permission, etc.


    These bans are very harsh and even insulting, but they are more important to control the Qiang people.


    There were Qiang people in the Sui army, and there were quite a few, with a total of 70,000 or 80,000 people. They were all prisoners of war collected during the process of destroying the Qiang.


    But in order to control the Qiang people, Yang Guang still formulated a ban on the Qiang people not being allowed to join the army without permission, in order to prevent the Qiang people from occupying too much of the Sui army and thus shake the rule of the Sui country within.


    But even with such a strict ban, the Qiang people have never stopped rebelling, but it has to be admitted that there are indeed fewer and fewer Qiang people rebelling.


    What does this mean?


    It shows that those prohibitions were useful. After getting used to it, the Qiang people gradually accepted the rule of the Sui Kingdom.


    The Qiang people are now like a wild wild horse that is difficult to tame. After years of training by horse trainers from the Tang and Sui Dynasty, they are finally about to be tamed by the Sui Dynasty.


    But if the Qiang Ling was introduced at this time and the ban and control of the Qiang people was lifted, it would be like untiing the reins of this wild horse that was about to be tamed.


    The heart is like a running horse on the plain, easy to let go but hard to stop.


    Once the reins are untied and you want to put them on again, it will be difficult.


    Therefore, once the Jie Qiang Order was introduced, the Sui State''s years of governance of Haizhou would return to before liberation, and Haizhou would not be owned by the Han people, and the Qiang people would become the owners of this land again.


    This is the main reason why Cheng Gongying, Ban Gu and Li Delin oppose it.


    In Yang Guang''s view, he destroyed the Qiang tribe and he has the power to decide what to do.


    But in the eyes of Cheng Gongying, Ban Gu and others, the destruction of the Qiang Dynasty was not due to Yang Guang and Li Shimin, but first the Hundred Years of War in the Han and Qiang Dynasty, and then the battles of Sanming, Dong Zhuo, Yang Jian, Li Yuan and others in Liangzhou, which allowed Li Shimin and Yang Guang to completely destroy the Qiang tribe.


    The Qiang people have harmed the northwest for more than a hundred years. Countless ancestors sacrificed their lives and even the Han Empire was dragged down. This made you, Yang Guang, resolve this threat.


    But now Yang Guang wants to let the Qiang people rise again, wouldn’t he let all his ancestors die in vain?


    How could Cheng Gongying, Ban Gu and Li Delin, who are natives in Liangzhou, agree?


    The opposition of Cheng Gongying and others could not shake Yang Guang''s determination, because in his opinion, Haizhou and the Qiang people were like peaches that were about to ripen but not ripe yet.


    Yang Guang is now unable to protect himself and has no time to wait for the peaches to ripen, while Daqin is here to pick peaches.


    Although the unripe peaches are astringent, they can also quench their thirst, but if they don’t eat them, they will only be cheaper to Daqin.


    Yang Guang would rather cut down this peach tree than Ying Hao, so even though he knew the hidden dangers of the Qiang Order, he still decided to take a gamble.


    "You don''t have to persuade you. Once the Qiang order is released, our army will immediately be dominated by 60,000 or 70,000 Qiang troops, which will definitely break the Qing army''s blockade against Daxing.


    As for what will happen after the promulgation of the Qiang Order, we have to wait until the Qin army is repelled. If we do not repel the Qin army, we will have no future. ”


    Yang Guang''s words are also the views of Gao Yang Su and others. After all, even if the Qiang people are threatening, there is no threat from the Qin army. Everything should be dominated by repelling the Qin army first.
