Chapter 464: Deceiving Yang Guang, the Sui Dynasty was destroyed!
another way?
Yang Guang was slightly stunned, not quite understanding what Yu Huatian meant.
Not only won't you kill me, but Sui Dynasty is still mine?
"Don't you want to rule the world? Don't you want my Great Sui?"
Yang Guang asked with a frown.
Yuhuatian shook his head and said: "Don't get me wrong, China must be unified, and no one can stop it."
Yang Guang's face darkened: "Are you kidding me?"
"Don't worry."
Yuhuatian waved his hand and said calmly: "What I mean is that from now on, you will still be the king of the Sui Dynasty, but you need to be the king of the Ming Dynasty. Do you understand what I mean?"
Yang Guang was slightly startled and said: "You mean, the Sui Dynasty became a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty?"
Yuhuatian nodded: "In this world, there can only be one emperor and one master, and that is me, the Ming Dynasty, but there can be many kings."
After saying that, Yu Huatian looked at Yang Guang and said with a smile: "Are you willing to become the King of Sui?"
Yang Guang frowned, understanding what Yu Huatian meant.
He was the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty. If he were to become the King of the Sui Dynasty, it would be equivalent to being demoted. He would be the same as the kings of those small countries. There would be no difference.
However, there is an advantage to doing this, that is, Sui Dynasty will still be his in the future.
It's just that he needs to bow to the Ming Dynasty, become a minister and pay tribute.
For a moment, Yang Guang also fell into deep thought.
He originally thought that the Sui Dynasty had reached its end, but unexpectedly, Yuhuatian gave him another choice.
After a moment of silence, Yang Guang said in a deep voice: "I need to think about it."
Yu Huatian nodded and said: "No rush, you can think about it slowly, but you have to give me an answer before I deal with Li Clan."
Yang Guang's eyes flashed: "You want to take action against Li Clan?"
Yu Huatian said calmly: "After all, there is only such a small area in the Sui Dynasty, and it is impossible for there to be two kings. Therefore, the Li family must be solved."
Yang Guangdao: "I still have a doubt, why didn't you choose Li Clan to be the king of the Sui Dynasty, but chose me?"
After saying that, Yang Guang sneered and said: "After all, the prestige of Li Clan is much stronger than mine at the moment. Countless people believe that Li Clan is the destined monarch. Even in the Sui Dynasty, countless people have invested in Li Clan. Under his command."
Yu Huatian said calmly: "This is indeed true. If nothing unexpected happens, the Great Sui Dynasty will inevitably be destroyed in the hands of Li Clan. Li Clan is indeed the destined master of this generation."
Yang Guang's face darkened: "Do you even think so?"
Yuhuatian said calmly: "You don't have to feel angry. After all, this is the way the world is. Those who are capable can get it. Even you, Sui Dynasty, came from the Northern Zhou Dynasty's abdication?"
Yang Guang's expression froze, but he couldn't say anything to refute.
But then, he sneered and said, "If that's the case, aren't you afraid that Ming will be replaced by others in the future?"
Yu Huatian said calmly: "I am just doing what I should do at the moment. As for the future of the Ming Dynasty, it has nothing to do with me. If the descendants of the Ming Dynasty are really incompetent and replaced by others, then that is what their fate should be."
When Yang Guang heard this, he fell silent and didn't know what to say for a moment.
And Yu Huatian continued: "As for why I chose you instead of the Li clan, it's just because you are the emperor of the Sui Dynasty now. If you hadn't lasted until my Ming Dynasty's Western Expedition, you would have been eliminated by the Li clan. I'm sure I won’t consider you again.”
Yang Guang's face was ugly. Yu Huatian's words did not give him any face.
Yu Huatian didn't care, and continued: "When I go to Li Clan, I won't kill everyone. If you don't agree to be the king of Sui, then I will let Li Clan take over. I believe Li Yuan will be happy to be the king of Tang. of."
Yang Guang's expression changed again. He didn't expect that Yu Huatian would even take this into consideration.
Before the rebellion, Li Yuan was the Duke of Tang in the Sui Dynasty. Now after the rebellion, he calls himself the King of Tang.
Yang Guang gritted his teeth and said, "Then if I agree, how will you deal with Li Clan?"
Yuhuatian said calmly: "This China is so big that I, the Ming Dynasty, can't control it. I don't mind giving him a piece of territory elsewhere."
Yang Guang looked ugly: "Do you value Li Yuan so much?"
Yu Huatian looked at Yang Guang: "Didn't you already see his ability?"
With that said, Yu Huatian stood up slowly, looked at the white clouds in the distance, and said slowly: "As long as anyone has the ability, I can give him a chance."
"Not only is China huge, this world is even bigger."
"Actually, whether it's me, the Ming Dynasty, you, the Sui Dynasty, or the Li clan, there is no need to limit their sights to this corner of China and fight back and forth on this three-thirds of an acre of land."
"With so many heroes of troubled times living in the same world, why don't they want to go out and see places outside China?"
"Isn't it more fulfilling to unify a world than to unify a country or a region?"
Yang Guang looked at Yuhuatian blankly: "You mean, are there other places besides China?"
"Isn't that obvious?"
Yuhuatian said calmly: "Do you think there is only one land of China in this world?"
"Thousands of years ago, Bodhidharma came from the west to the east, and Buddhism began to exist in China."
"If there is only China in this world, where did Bodhidharma come from?"
Yang Guang's body shook, and a huge wave suddenly surged in his heart.
In fact, not only him, but no one from other countries has ever thought about the world outside China.
From the very beginning, this China is already very big. Unless he unified China like the First Emperor did, who would consider going to the world outside China to see it?
Secondly, since ancient times, there have been very few records outside China, and many people have never thought of going out to take a look.
But now that Yu Huatian said this, Yang Guang suddenly wanted to go to the world outside China to see it.
Since we can't defeat the Ming Dynasty in China, why not go outside China to re-establish the Sui Dynasty.
If he comes back in the future when he is strong enough, he may not be weaker than Ming.
When the time comes, isn't it just a matter of getting back everything we've lost?
Anyway, Yuhuatian himself said that he didn't care what Ming Dynasty would become in the future.
In other words, as long as the Sui Dynasty is strong enough in the future, it is possible to destroy the Ming Dynasty and replace it!
In this case, why not bow your head temporarily at this moment?
Thinking of this, Yang Guang's heart surged and he felt the long-lost passion.
As Yu Huatian said, how can we achieve a sense of accomplishment by unifying a country or a region and unifying a world?
Even if he can't complete it, his sons and grandsons can work hard in this direction.
If one day the soldiers and horses of the Sui Dynasty march across the world and become the master of this world, then he can rest in peace even if he is under Jiuquan.
Next to him, Yu Huatian also smiled softly when he saw that Yang Guang's fighting spirit was rekindled by him in just a few words.
He naturally knew how much impact his words just had on a king as ambitious as Yang Guang.
But he didn't deceive Yang Guang.
He had never thought about this plan before, but after talking with Yang Guang, he suddenly felt that it would be a pity for such a troubled hero to die like this.
Not only Yang Guang, but also Li Yuan, Li Shimin, and Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others on the Han side who are currently competing for hegemony all have imperial qualifications.
It would be a pity if all these people were really killed in order to unify China.
Therefore, it is better to leave them behind, make the land their king, and let them and the Ming Dynasty rule the world together. If they are not satisfied yet, let them explore places outside China.
If they can really surpass Ming Dynasty and replace Ming Dynasty in the future, Yuhuatian will not have any idea.
It is impossible for him to protect Ming Dynasty for his whole life.
Moreover, they are all of Yanhuang blood anyway, and the descendants of China, as long as they are not enslaved by foreign races, who will ultimately control the world is what Yuhuatian is happy to see.
If one day, the world is filled with Chinese blood, it will be an unprecedented prosperous age.
Yuhuatian is also looking forward to this.
Of course, all this depends on whether they are willing to temporarily surrender to the Ming Dynasty.
Yu Huatian glanced at Yang Guang, who was still longing for something in front of him, and said: "You should think about it slowly. I have something else to do, so I won't accompany you."
"As for Chang'an, you don't have to worry. Before you make a decision, my Ming Dynasty's Western Expeditionary Army will not reach Chang'an."
After saying that, Yuhuatian was about to leave.
But at this moment, Yang Guang suddenly said: "Wait!"
Yuhuatian paused in his steps.
Yang Guangdao: "I agree to your conditions!"
Yuhuatian turned to look at him, a little surprised.
Yang Guang's eyes were glaring and he said: "You have made it so clear. It would be too stupid for me to refuse to agree."
After saying that, Yang Guang took a deep breath and said: "In order to avenge my shame one day and surpass you in the Ming Dynasty, Gu, I am willing to be the King of the Sui Dynasty!"
The emperor calls me, the king calls me alone.
Hearing this, Yuhuatian smiled slightly and said, "You made a wise choice!"
Luoyang.
Yang Guang led hundreds of civil and military officials and countless treasures to leave Luoyang and moved to Chang'an, leaving only Yu Wenhua and his son to lead a hundred thousand forbidden troops to defend the city.
But what is unexpected is that after Sun Chengzong led his army to Luoyang, before the patron king Yang Lin could persuade him to surrender, Yu Wenhua and his son directly led the troops out of the city to surrender without any intention of resisting.
I thought it would take a lot of effort to win Luoyang, but this result was something no one expected.
However, since Yu Wenhua and his son surrendered voluntarily, they were spared a lot of trouble, and Sun Chengzong directly led his army to Luoyang.
Yu Wenhua and his son did not expect that the surrender would be so smooth, and they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Immediately, after welcoming Sun Chengzong into the city, Yu Wenhuaji saw the patron king Yang Lin glaring at him in the crowd, and the scene suddenly became extremely embarrassing.
For Yang Lin, Yu Wenhuaji's active surrender saves him from persuading him to surrender, but there is always a difference between active surrender and persuading him to surrender.
In his opinion, Yang Guang trusted Yu Wenhua and his son to lead the army to guard Luoyang, but they surrendered without any hesitation when the Ming army arrived. This was undoubtedly a betrayal of Yang Guang and the Sui Dynasty.
Yu Wenhuaji was extremely embarrassed when he saw Yang Lin.
But then I thought about it, Yang Lin was the first one to surrender, not to mention that he was the patron king of Sui Dynasty and his status was much higher than him.
In this case, then we are all the same people. If the eldest brother does not talk about the second brother, how can you be nobler than me?
Thinking of this, Yu Wenhuaji immediately held his head high and said hello to Yang Lin: "I didn't expect that the old prince would also come. What a coincidence."
"Humph!"
Yang Lin snorted coldly and ignored him, turning around and leaving.
Yu Wenhuaji was stunned for a moment, and then he snorted softly and strode in.
Sun Chengzong ignored these two people. After entering the city, he first learned about the specific situation from Yu Wenhuaji, and then decided to temporarily station in Luoyang and wait for news from Yuhuatian.
In his opinion, since Yuhuatian went to Chang'an in person, Yang Guang must be doomed.
It won't be long before the Great Sui Dynasty comes to an end.
Sure enough, only the next day, Sun Chengzong received news from spies from Chang'an.
Yang Guang summoned hundreds of officials and issued a letter of surrender to the Ming Dynasty unconditionally. He also issued an edict and ordered the local governments not to resist the Ming Dynasty and wait for the Ming Dynasty to take over the territory of the Sui Dynasty.
As soon as this news came out, the entire Sui Dynasty was shocked.
Countless people were frightened and disappointed, and even more passionate people scolded Yang Guang for not being a son of a man and not worthy of being the emperor of the Sui Dynasty.
For a time, many turmoils broke out again in various places in the Sui Dynasty that had just been pacified by Yuwen Tuo's troops.
Not to mention the reaction of the people in the Sui Dynasty.
When Sun Chengzong and others received the news, they were immediately overjoyed.
"Sure enough, as long as King Wu takes action himself, there will be nothing wrong!"
"The Sui Dynasty surrendered. Now there is only one Han Dynasty left in China. We, the Ming Dynasty, will dominate the world and it is just around the corner!"
"Hahaha, King Wu is mighty!"
In the main hall of the Great Sui Palace, Sun Chengzong announced the matter in public. Everyone was happy and extremely excited.
On the other hand, Yang Lin, Yu Wenhuaji and other former officials of the Sui Dynasty had complicated expressions.
There was even an incredible look on Yang Lin's face.
Although he had known that with the strength of the Ming Dynasty, the Sui Dynasty would definitely not be able to stop it, and its destruction was a foregone conclusion.
But he still didn't expect that Sui Dynasty would be destroyed in this way.
Yang Guang would actually surrender? !
As the patron king of the Sui Dynasty and Yang Guang's uncle, he knew Yang Guang's temper and character very well.
When the imperial court was in dire straits and was controlled by aristocratic families from all over the country, Yang Guang never lowered his head. He even ignored the opposition of countless people and built the Grand Canal, conquered Goguryeo three times, and created the imperial examination system...
That is a person who would rather die than bow to others.
But now, he actually surrendered? !
For a moment, Yang Lin's thoughts were extremely complicated.
I felt relieved, but also felt inexplicably sad and lonely.
The Great Sui Dynasty finally came to this day...
While everyone was having different thoughts and talking, there was sudden movement outside the hall, and immediately, Yuhuatian strode into the hall.
Everyone was shocked, and then they stood up and saluted: "See you, Your Majesty!"
"See the Overlord (Lord Rain)!"
Yu Huatian glanced at it and saw that everyone was excited, obviously they had received the news.
He smiled slightly, looked at Sun Chengzong, and said: "General Sun, take people directly to Chang'an. Discuss with Yang Guang first to calm down the turmoil in the Sui Dynasty. Remember not to kill innocent people indiscriminately and cause too much impact."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Sun Chengzong excitedly raised his hand.
Yuhuatian nodded, then looked at the golden-armored figure standing behind Yuwen Wenji in the crowd, his eyes flashed and he said, "Are you Yuwen Chengdu?"
Ranked second among the Eighteen Heroes of the Great Sui Dynasty, Yuwen Chengdu was the reincarnation of the Nine Heavens in the upper world, the Universalizing Heavenly Lord with the sound of thunder!
