I Can Control My Ancestors-Chapter 370 - 35: The Fall of Han, Yang Guang Heads to Julu
The news spread in all directions like a tide.
Although people had long anticipated it.
But when it was heard, it still had an unimaginable impact on the entire world.
——Sui!
Since Wang Mang usurped the Han ended many years ago.
For the first time on this land, there was a state name other than "Han".
And with the complete determination of this matter.
It seemed to tell the people of the world that the Celestial Mandate of the "Liu family" had completely ended. .....
The first year of Kaihuang, August.
Yang Jian held a sacrificial ceremony at the Luoshui River, honoring the ancestors of the Gu Clan.
He completely resolved the Northern Dynasty’s internal discord.
Although the Gu Clan had not appeared in public for many years, their influence in the people’s hearts had not entirely dissipated.
Yang Jian did this to completely win over people’s hearts.
His attitude toward the Gu Clan was very clear.
It was exactly because of these years of silence that Yang Jian had no reservations about the Gu Clan.
On the contrary—
As he rose higher and put his mind on the entire world.
He became more appreciative of a family like the Gu Clan.
For an emerging dynasty.
If it could gain the support of a family like the Gu Clan, the help for the entire dynasty would be unimaginable.
This was the reputation earned by generations of the Gu Clan descendants for the Gu Clan over hundreds of years.
He gave the Gu Clan many rewards.
He even released the news that when the world is pacified, he would personally visit the Gu Clan.
This was a statement.
Of course, whether there was any deeper meaning in it, others could not know.
The influence of the Gu Clan could not remain at its peak.
As the Great Han was reaching its end, the peak achieved by the Gu Clan within the Han dynasty would gradually dissipate.
However, the only difference was—Gu Yi’s intervention.
History had once again changed.
As the new generation grew, the Gu Clan would eventually reappear, and not continue to decline.
...
The world was in chaos.
As Yang Jian firmly established his foothold, it was like a sluice gate opened, plunging the world into chaos.
The rise of the feudal lords!
One by one, feudal lords of different surnames emerged.
There was no need for Yang Jian to attack; the internal conflicts within the Southern Dynasty already tore it apart.
Perhaps because they had been dormant for too long.
Facing the supreme position, the heroes seemed to have lost their reason.
Division;
Chaos.
The struggle that erupted this time far exceeded that of the past.
In the face of these feudal lords like hungry wolves, the fragility of the Liu family feudal lords was fully exposed.
Everything was just as Yang Jian had commented on them.
Throughout the North and South, there were no true heroes!
In this situation, Yang Jian led the Northern Army to attack the Southern Dynasty.
The chaos continued unabated across the land.
But compared to Yang Jian, who took the first action, the other feudal lords lagged behind, far too much in comparison.
Under Yang Jian’s personal leadership, the spirit of the Northern Army was as high as a rainbow.
The second year of Kaihuang.
Yang Jian first eliminated three major feudal lords, with his power continuing to expand.
And even so.
The internal struggles of the Southern Dynasty still did not cease.
The Liu family had been completely abandoned, just like the Zhou dynasty of old.
Feudal lords from all directions waged wars.
The Emperor of the Liu family had become a mere figurehead, which naturally gave Yang Jian many opportunities.
His fame grew louder and louder.
Similarly, so did that of his son, King Jin, Yang Guang.
Stories about him spread everywhere, his reputation far surpassing that of Crown Prince Yang Yong, truly famous across the world.
Whether it was his appearance, his kindness to the soldiers, or his heroism on the battlefield.
There were all sorts of rumors.
The name "Sui" grew increasingly prominent.
Continuous victories led everyone in the world to begin sensing something.
——The unification of the world!
There was no longer a need for Yang Jian to lead expeditions personally; the increasingly powerful Sui Army was enough to crush everything.
As the situation became clearer.
In the seventh year of Kaihuang;
Yang Jian, under the pretext of "Chang’an’s decline," decided to rebuild a capital in the southeast of the city at Dragon Head Mountain, named "Daxing."
Its meaning was self-evident.
This was the capital of the Great Sui, not inheriting Chang’an and Luoyang of the Great Han.
This would be an entirely new capital!
In addition to this——
The capabilities of Yang Jian in governance were also demonstrated to the fullest; the first thing he began to reform was the currency.
Although the world is not completely unified.
For Yang Jian, he already considered the whole world his domain!
The entire Great Sui court was thriving with prosperity.
For this dynasty, which already showed signs of unifying the world, the hearts of the ministers were united externally.
No one did not wish for the unification of the world.
Precisely because the inheritance of the Great Han lasted too long, this unknowingly added to this aspiration.
This was an unimaginable opportunity for all of them.
The Gu Clan was not present in the court at this time.
Why couldn’t they become the Gu Clan of the Great Sui?
In this situation, the momentum of the entire Great Sui grew increasingly strong.
In stark contrast.
The chaos within the Southern Dynasty never ceased, leading to the exhaustion of the populace.
The situation of the entire world became increasingly clear.
The eighth year of Kaihuang, on the day of Jiazi in October;
Yang Jian ordered King Jin Yang Guang, King Qin Yang Jun, and Yang Su, Duke of Qing River, to lead the army to attack.
The final offensive against the Southern Han began.
The routes of the three armies were different, aiming to maximize the advantage in the current chaos of the Southern Dynasty.
Yang Guang’s original route was to march out from Luhe.
But he insisted on passing through Jizhou State; he wanted to go to Julu!
....
Julu.
The Gu Clan had been following their ancestral teachings over the years.
