After receiving Qin Jin's assurance, Li Heng finally had all his doubts gone, and said that he would do his best to block all the noise, and he only needed to concentrate on the defense inside and outside the city. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Out of the Taiji Palace, Qin Jin not only did not feel relieved, but felt that the courage on his shoulders became heavier and heavier, so heavy that he could hardly see hope.

In the distance, there were a few faint dog barks, and there were bursts of fighting, and the north wind was blowing, Qin Jin subconsciously shivered, and then wrapped the big crush on his body tightly. At this time, although he was extremely tired, he did not feel sleepy.

"Doctor, General Guo is looking for you everywhere. ”

An entourage of the army came to fight horses, and was looking for Qin Jin's horse team in the imperial city.

"What are you looking for me?"

Qin Jin knew that Guo Ziyi would never be in a hurry to find himself if he had nothing to do, there must be something difficult for him to decide.

General Guo did not explain, and said that the matter was very high, and the doctor had to make a decision. ”

"Where is he now? ”

Guo Ziyi was dealing with an emergency in Jinguangmen at this time, and it was here that the patrol team caught the gatekeeper who collected his property privately and indulged others out of the city. For this reason, the patrol team specially found Guo Ziyi to deal with it, but after he carefully inquired about the specific situation, he also felt that it was very tricky, so he could only ask Qin Jin for instructions.

"What's the implication of Chen Xilie and his son?"

Qin Jin was taken aback by Guo Ziyi's words, he didn't expect this old guy to jump out again to brush his sense of existence, and it was at such an extremely sensitive moment.

"What else was found?"

He didn't believe that Chen Xilie's son had bought off the guards and communicated with him inside and outside just to escape from Chang'an.

"This is a secret letter, please take a look at it. ”

Qin Jin took the secret letter in Guo Ziyi's hand, glanced at it a few times, and immediately felt a cool breeze swishing in the back of his head.

Chen Xilie actually has the intention to collaborate with the enemy?

This news was too shocking, was he still not reconciled after losing the political struggle? Would he rather betray the Tang Dynasty than make a comeback?

Qin Jin sighed secretly, people's desires are really endless, knowing that there is little hope, but they also want to put out the fire at all costs.

Let's ask, to a person like Chen Xilie, even if he votes for An Lushan, he will only be regarded as a shameful traitor, although the Anshi traitor will appease his descendants at the beginning out of the need to buy people's hearts, but he will not trust him after all.

"Doctor, how should this matter be handled?

Qin Jin thought about it, but still shook his head. At such a time, letting Li Heng know about Chen Xilie's rebellion would only shake his confidence. It's better for the Shenwu Army to solve this matter in secret, and it's not too late to find out one by one afterwards.

In fact, what Guo Ziyi's expression revealed was that he had no intention of telling Li Heng about this matter at all, it was just a temptation. Seeing that Qin Jin had rejected this suggestion, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"I'm afraid that the Son of Heaven has Chen Xilie's eyes and ears by his side, in case the news leaks, won't we lose an opportunity to make a big fuss?"

Feeling that Guo Ziyi had something to say, Qin Jin asked:

"What a fuss? General Guo will tell me in detail!"

It turned out that Guo Ziyi's plan turned out to be to plan the plan, pretending to be Chen Xilie to contact the rebels, maybe he could get miraculous results.

Qin Jin felt that it was also a feasible suggestion, so he handed over the matter to Guo Ziyi to deal with, and only emphasized one more sentence.

"If the confidentiality work is done well, Chen Xilie must also be closely monitored. ”

Guo Ziyi said:

"Please rest assured, the general will be cautious. ”

After saying this, now that he had met Guo Ziyi, Qin Jin simply informed him of tomorrow's arrangements.

"Let's go, let's go back to the Chinese army first, let's talk as we walk on the road. ”

The two got on the horse and walked side by side, and Qin Jin explained his judgment in detail again.

"Sun Xiaozhe's military rations will definitely not last long, and the next days will definitely be more difficult than before, if the expectations are good, tomorrow, Chang'an may face a more fierce attack. ”

Guo Ziyi's reaction was very different from Cui Guangyuan's, I saw his solemn face, his gaze lowered slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

"If that's the case, the jade will be burned, and it may not be impossible!"

Hearing this, Qin Jin slammed the saddle.

"That's the reason, I'm also worried that Sun Xiaozhe will have the same end in mind, which will only make the situation more complicated and dangerous in the end. ”

This time it was too hard, so that the war horse under Qin Jin's crotch was suddenly frightened, and he actually slashed his hooves, and Herod hissed for a while. It was also thanks to Qin Jin's ability to control it and control it to the death, so that he did not let the frightened horse run away.

"In this case, the last general will go to set up tonight to deal with the rebels' siege at any cost. ”

Qin Jin nodded.

"It's a pity that the Shenwu Army still has to hold Hedong and can't be transferred to Guanzhong, and now it seems that I underestimated Sun Xiaozhe's ability. ”

Regarding Qin Jin's half-self-blame and half-remorse, Guo Ziyi didn't think so.

"The doctor is too arrogant, Hedong is the foundation of the imperial court to set the world, condescending can clamp Hebei, across the river and Henan to form Mount Tai to the top of the trend, only Hedong is still in the hands of the imperial court, Anshi rebels did not dare to act rashly, poured out, only to make Sun Xiaozhe's 200,000 troops become a lone army without backup. Once Hedong is lost, I am afraid that the imperial court will be in danger, and it will be even more difficult to quell the rebellion. ”

Guo Ziyi's words were not good words of comfort, but what he really thought in his heart, Qin Jin could hold Hedong with the main force of the Shenwu Army, and only went to Guanzhong alone, shouldering the heavy responsibility of guarding Chang'an, and his courage was by no means comparable to ordinary people.

However, after all, people are human beings, and there are times when they are not firm enough, Guo Ziyi unexpectedly found tonight that this imperial doctor who seems to have everything under control seems to be a little unspeakably anxious.

However, since Qin Jin didn't say it, he felt that it was inconvenient for him to open his mouth and ask questions, so he only said some views and suggestions on the current situation.

After arriving at the barracks of the Chinese army, Qin Jin immediately ordered to convene a military meeting of all generals above the brigade rate, and he wanted to make the last pre-war mobilization, and success or failure was decided in one fell swoop.

The mobilization meeting was very successful, and almost all of them, led by a few former private backbones, said that they would fight hard to defeat the rebels completely.

It was not until the second half of the night that this mobilization meeting was dismissed, and after the end of the meeting, the brigade leaders and captains went directly to their respective armies to prepare for battle in advance.

Qin Jin's prediction was indeed preliminarily fulfilled, the sky had just brightened, and when the first rays of sunlight lazily shone on the land of Guanzhong, the rebels who were overwhelming rushed to the city wall of Chang'an like a stormy wave.

After half a winter of fighting, tens of thousands of corpses have been piled up outside Chang'an City, and everyone knows that attacking this world's strongest city will pay a heavy price, but these rebels are still rushing forward regardless of life and death under the drive of their respective generals.

"The tactics of the rebels are still the same, first using life-filling tactics to consume the morale and physical strength of the defenders, and then the elite will be dispatched. ”

Qin Jin stayed on the city wall until dawn, and the waiting in the middle of the night had a result, but it made his mood even heavier. Although all kinds of judgments are deduced based on the information obtained before, in the absence of definite news, these inferences are only a high-probability event in the final analysis, and since they are called high-probability, there is a small probability that they will not be deduced.

As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what if, just in case......

"Don't worry, doctor, we have long been familiar with this set of tactics of the rebels, during this time in the morning, everyone is easy to deal with, and after noon, it is a tough battle. ”

Guo Ziyi didn't care about this kind of fierce attack, as if repelling them was just a matter of gestures.

In fact, and indeed so, for a whole morning, the rebels and defenders repeatedly tug-of-war on the walls of Chang'an. A large number of life-filling ghosts were picked up by the warlords, and they died one after another under the city wall, seeing that the corpses under the city wall were piling up higher and higher, and even approaching Zhang Xu, even Guo Ziyi, who had always been calm, was amazed.

"If the rebels continue to fight like this, they will be able to fill the city with only dead bodies. ”

Of course, this is a joke, the Chang'an city wall is more than three zhang high, with a circumference of more than 70 miles, and it is tantamount to a fantasy to use corpses to pave a large slope that is enough for tens of thousands of people to rush to the city wall.

The offensive and defensive battles went on for a whole morning, and the fighting was so lifeless that even the shouts of the rebels made people feel a sense of listlessness in their ears.

Qin Jin looked up at the sky, seeing that it was almost noon, maybe today's protagonist was about to appear......

However, unexpectedly, as soon as noon passed, the rebels actually withdrew their troops, and found nothing except for discarding tens of thousands of corpses under the walls of Chang'an.

However, even so, Guo Ziyi did not dare to act rashly, and relaxed the slightest, what if the rebels suddenly killed again?

In this state of high alert, all the defenders on the walls of Chang'an waited until the sun went down and it was completely dark, and no rebel elite came to attack.

Qin Jin was like a statue that stood on the city wall for a whole day, and so did Guo Ziyi.

"It seems that Sun Xiaozhe's patience is still underestimated, he is consuming our patience and morale, and he will look good in the future!"

Although it was said easily, Guo Ziyi's brows never let go for a moment, and his intuition dictated that Sun Xiaozhe was definitely a difficult opponent, and he was a little unsure of what other unexpected means this person had for a while.

Qin Jin only snorted coldly, and then moved his legs, which were stiff and numb from standing.

"No matter how the rebels play tricks, we only need soldiers to block the water and cover the earth, and they can still climb to the sky?"

However, Guo Ziyi's gaze fell on the pitch-black city again, and even if he couldn't see anything, he knew very well that there were mountains of rebel corpses piled up everywhere.

"If the rebels attack the city so stupidly every day, it only takes twenty days for the siege of Chang'an to be lifted!"

As he spoke, even he couldn't help but laugh, which was obviously a fantasy.
