The internal strife between the Yuwen brothers seemed accidental, and a series of accidental incidents led to the misunderstanding of the brothers. However, looking at the essence through the appearance, we will find that the internal strife between the Yuwen brothers would inevitably occur. The fundamental reason was the uneven distribution of the spoils, including Sima Dekan's rebellion. They joined forces to overthrow Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, but in the end they were monopolized by Yu Wen and his interests.

The resentment and dissatisfaction between them accumulate day by day and has reached a critical point, and the bleak future makes them feel desperate. At this time, Liu Qing decided to take action to get rid of Yuwen Zhiji, which became the fuse for the outbreak of conflicts between them. Once the war breaks out, the misunderstanding will never be explained clearly.

Under the city of Qi County, an internal strife broke out. Chen Ling, who supported Yu Wenhua and Ji, led 30,000 troops to attack Yuwen Zhiji and Sima Dekan's army. More than 70,000 troops fought in the wilderness outside the city, with flags waving, dust flying, and shouting and killing sounds shook the sky.

On the top of the city, hundreds of ministers and tens of thousands of soldiers were watching the war in the distance, and everyone's eyes were filled with worries. In fact, at this time, if Yu Wenhe was willing to release his 10,000 troops to participate in the war, he would definitely win, but Yu Wenhe refused to do so. At this time, 10,000 troops were his last capital to save his life.

The melee has been going on for nearly two hours, and both sides have suffered heavy casualties. Yuwen Zhiji's army has gradually become out of support. What Liu Qing is most worried about at this time is the Li Mi army twenty miles away. How could Li Mi not know about the melee they broke out like this? Will he not seize such an opportunity?

Liu Qing was extremely anxious. He didn't expect that things would evolve to this point. He had planned very carefully, first secretly killing Yuwen Zhi and seizing power, then luring Sima Dekan, and finally killing Yu Wenhua and seizing all military power. But I don't know which link has a problem, leading to this melee situation.

Liu Qing knew to continue killing. In the end, everyone was finished. He hurriedly stepped forward to Yu Wenhua and said, "Lord, let's send troops! If you continue killing, Bei Zhi was worried that Li Mi would benefit the fisherman."

Although Yu Wenji refused to do so, he also knew that once Li Mi sent troops to attack, everyone would be finished, but more importantly, he also saw that Yu Wen Zhiji's army was no longer supported, and he was sending troops at this time to get the biggest advantage.

Yu Wenji nodded and finally issued an order, "Tell me my order, the army will go out of the city to attack Yu Wen Zhiji!"

The city gate rumbled open, and an army of 8,000 people broke out from the city and rushed towards Yuwen Zhiji's army...

Liu Qing's worries were not wrong. Just on the Tongji Canal several miles away from the north, a military floating bridge had been built. Li Mi personally led an army of 80,000 quickly crossing the floating bridge and heading towards Qi County. Li Mi had long been covered with secret whistles near Qi County. When news of internal strife between the Yuwen brothers came, he immediately ordered his troops to fight.

Li Mi and Yu Wenji's army have been in a confrontation for a winter. He has always been worried that his army cannot defeat Yu Wenji's army. Although Yu Wenji is stupid, the army in his hands is an elite Sui army after all. Li Mi is still very afraid. He dare not launch an attack easily one winter. Li Mi also knows that Yu Wenji and Sima Dekan have a deep conflict. Their conflict will break out sooner or later. He waited for the opportunity patiently. Today he finally waited for this opportunity.

"Duke Wei, we caught the deserter!"

A dozen soldiers took two captured deserters and knelt in front of Li Mi. Li Mi leaned over and asked them, "Who are you subordinates and why are you deserters?"

The two said tremblingly: "We are subordinates of Yu Wenhuaji. Yu Wenzhi and his army suddenly came. No one was ready and fled everywhere. They wanted to enter the city, but the gate was closed. We had to escape back to our hometown."

Li Mi's eyes lit up. It turned out that the Yuwen brother had an internal strife. This was like God helping him, "Transfer my orders to speed up the marching!"

Eighty thousand Wei troops rushed towards Qixian County.

...........

There was already chaos in Qixian County. Yu Wenji's army had appeared three miles away. You can clearly see the overwhelming army coming towards the county town. The fighting outside the county town had stopped. Yu Wenji's soldiers were extremely frightened and fled in all directions.

This is a typical battle between cranes and clams, the fisherman gained benefits, and the internal strife between the Yuwen brothers, which led to Li Mi picking the fruits of victory with his fingers.

The people in the city fled in scattered areas. Yu Wenhua and his wife and children were no longer caring about him. Under the protection of more than a dozen personal soldiers, he rushed out of the city gate and rode his horse towards Jiangdu. Many officials also took the opportunity to escape from the county town and headed for their unknown future. In less than a quarter of an hour, the overwhelming army of 80,000 troops engulfed the small Qixian county town.

...........

In the palace, the young emperor Yang Neng and Empress Dowager Xiao were forced by Li Mi soldiers and sat on the dragon bed. Li Mi walked on the palace with a spring breeze. The reason why he wanted to fight Yu Culture was to get Yang Neng and Empress Dowager Xiao, so that he would have the capital to use the emperor to command the princes. Li Mi was also a nobleman from Guanlong. He knew very well that he could not ascend the throne as a rioter. If he wanted to accomplish great things, the first step was to wash away his identity as a rioter. He had to become the regent of the ruling state like Yang Yuanqing, and after obtaining orthodox status, he would seek to ascend the throne, and he would never directly become emperor. Li Yuan and Wang Shichong and others took this path, which was a political requirement.

It is precisely because of this that he promised to be loyal to Emperor Tai and become a minister of the Sui Dynasty. Unfortunately, Wang Shichong cut off his dream of becoming a political person and made him lose his entry into Luoyang. Now that he has obtained the eldest grandson of Emperor Yang Neng and Empress Xiao, Li Mi was overjoyed. At this time, Emperor Tai in Luoyang was no longer important to him.

Li Mi knelt down in front of Yang Neng and Empress Xiao, kowtowed three respectfully, and said with tears in his eyes: "The criminal Li Mi came to rescue the emperor late, so that His Majesty and the Empress Dowager would suffer from the rioter Yu Wenhua and bullying. This is my crime!"

Yang Lei sighed in his heart. He knew that he had become the second Emperor Xian of Han. Although Li Mi was not as capable as Cao Cao, his ambition was no less than Cao Cao at all.

Yang Qing bit her lips and said nothing, but Empress Xiao was very worldly. She knew that only obedience could she survive. Fighting for the world was a man's business. She just wanted to save her and her life.

"Li Aiqing is not a favor and calm!"

Li Mi was ecstatic. Empress Xiao called him Li Aiqing, so she recognized his identity. He stood up and saluted, "I thank Your Majesty, and the Empress Dowager!"

Yang Neng looked back at Empress Xiao, with some dissatisfaction in his eyes. Empress Xiao said lightly: "Li Aiqing has made contributions to the country and has made great contributions. The Ai family has named you the King of Wei, the Secretary of the State, the Prime Minister of General Administration, and the Nine Treasures. All government affairs in the world can be decided by the Ai family, and there is no need to report to the Ai family."

Li Mi breathed a sigh of relief. What he wanted was finally obtained now.

"I thank the Empress Dowager for your kindness. Please ask Your Majesty and Empress Dowager to return to the harem to rest. After handling the funeral of the traitor, I will come and pay my respects!"

...........

Li Mi walked out of the hall and the soldiers brought dozens of ministers who did not escape in. The head minister was Pei Yun. He was very depressed. He was slower and was caught by Li Mi's soldiers. There were also Taichang Qing Zhang Kai, Minister of Revenue Xu Hongren, Minister of Revenue Youpus Yu Shiji and others who were also arrested.

In addition, there were more than a dozen people kneeling in the corner, Yu Wen Zhiji, Sima Dekan and others covered in blood. They were tied with their arms around, and Yu Wen Chengji's two sons Yu Wen Chengji and Yu Wen Chengzhi were also caught and tied up. Another important general, Chen Ling, led the remnants to escape and disappeared.

Li Mi looked at everyone coldly, and he walked to Yuwen Zhiji. Yuwen Zhiji knelt down and lowered his head and said, "I am willing to serve Duke Wei!"

Li Mi snorted, "You should ask yourself how to die!"

He pointed at Yuwen Zhiji and others and gave an order, "hang all these thieves!"

Yuwen Zhiji collapsed to the ground in fear. The soldiers rushed up like wolves and tigers, dragging them down and far away. There were also sounds of begging for mercy from Yuwen Zhiji and others.

Li Mi walked to the officials again. Before he could speak, Feng Deyi, the Minister of Personnel, stepped forward and said, "I am willing to serve Duke Wei!"

Li Mi and Feng Deyi had a good personal relationship in the past. He patted Feng Deyi on the shoulder and sighed: "I know that Mr. Feng will definitely serve me."

Zhang Kai, Xu Hongren and others also expressed their willingness to serve. Li Mi accepted it one by one, walked to Pei Yun again, and looked at him with a smile, "How about Mr. Pei? Do you still want to go to Taiyuan?"

Pei Yun sighed and bowed, "Duke Wei does not dislike Pei Yun for the thief, Pei Yun is willing to serve Duke Wei!"

Li Mi narrowed her eyes with a smile, and he felt that he was one step closer to the position of Grand Principal.

......

Yu Wenhe ran for more than ten miles, and there were only two personal soldiers left by his side. The other personal guards knew that the situation was going to be, and they all went for their own future.

Yu Wenji was tired and hungry. Seeing a few big rocks beside the woods ahead, he turned over and got off the horse, sat down on the big rock, and ordered two personal soldiers, "Go and find some clear water for me!"

The two personal soldiers did not move. Yu Wenji glared and said angrily: "What, can't I scream you anymore?"

But the two personal soldiers bowed deeply to him, "We are leaving too, and finally bow to the lord."

Yu Wenji was shocked, "Where are you going?"

A personal soldier said: "We are going to go to Taiyuan. Please give us a gift for our sake."

Yu Wenyu was panicked, "I have nothing to do with whatever you want!"

The two personal soldiers pulled out their swords and grinned, "We want the head on your neck!"

.........

Liu Qing, Yu Wenshi and each grabbed a horse and fled from Qi County. The two ran west for more than twenty miles in one breath. It was already dark. They were shocked to see that there were no pursuers behind them.

Liu Qing sighed and said, "It is my responsibility to fight against cranes and clams, and the fisherman will benefit!"

Yu Wenshi knew that the original reason was caused by Sima Dekan, but it actually had nothing to do with Liu Qing. Now his relationship is his future, so he asked: "I plan to defect to Li Yuan. I have a great personal relationship with him. Brother Liu is willing to go with me?"

Liu Qing shook his head, "I want to go back to Bashu, visit my wife and children, and then live in seclusion in the mountains. I don't want to enter the government again. I wish Brother Yuwen to take care of him all the way!"

Yu Wenshi knew in his heart that it was because he was carrying the name of regicide, so he didn't force himself and nodded, "It's better to forget each other than to support each other. Let's take care of each other!"

The two bowed and bowed, Yu Wenshi and a whip of war horses and galloped westward. Liu Qing looked at him and walked away. He looked at the vast fields and couldn't help but roaring to the sky, "Liu Qing is dead, I, Huangfu Xu, should I go home!"
