Jiangnan East Road, Guabuzhou. Huainan Jiedu made Gao Shi and Huainan interview Li Chengshi and Wujun Taishou Li Xiyan gathered together. The surrounding conditions were very simple, with less than 10,000 soldiers and no more than five days' food. Erli looked forward to the stars and the moon, and finally looked forward to the reinforcements sent by the imperial court, but counting the number of people and horses accompanying Gao Shi was at most a thousand, and the hearts of the people who were originally enthusiastic immediately cooled down.

Now that the power of Yongwang Li Lan is gradually growing, and half of the Yangtze River from Jiangling to Guangling will fall into his grasp, does the imperial court think that sending a jiedu envoy and a thousand people can quell the Jiangnan rebellion?

Gao Shi's face tensed, and his gaze swept over Li Chengshi's and Li Xiyan's faces respectively. How could he not see the disappointment of these two, but since the Son of Heaven had entrusted him with a great responsibility, he had to do everything in his might.

"King Yong sits in Jiangning City, and his minions are distributed in Guangling, Wu County and other places, Gao Shi thinks that as long as he sends troops, he must concentrate all his forces, go straight to Jiangning, and take King Yong, and the rest of the rebels will be scattered!"

Li Chengshi didn't want to be embarrassed by Gao Shi, but Gao Shi's idea was indeed too stupid, isn't this just hitting a stone with an egg?

In contrast, Li Xiyan's temperament is much more unruly, and he bluntly questioned:

"Gao Jieshuai is not joking? I and the interviewer are less than 10,000 people combined, is it possible that Gao Jiedu will not be able to spread beans into soldiers?"

Gao Shi didn't bring troops here, and the 1,000 people who accompanied him weren't even enough to stuff their teeth, so it's no wonder that Li Xiyan didn't have a good face for him.

In an instant, the atmosphere in the main hall was embarrassing, Li Chengshi coughed a few times, and planned to play a round to ease the atmosphere, but who knew that Gao Shi directly invited the Son of Heaven Fu Festival.

"The Son of Heaven Fu Festival is here, Li Xiyan and Li Chengshi stepped forward to obey orders!"

actually directly used the Son of Heaven rune to suppress Er Li, Li Xiyan glared, and suddenly felt that the cold outside the main hall was pressing, as if there was a sound of swords and guns colliding, and suddenly realized that this Gao Shi had unknowingly controlled the north outside of the main hall, and I am afraid that those who do not obey will be arrested and killed on the spot, right?

If this is the case, he will only be rebellious by Gao Shi, and he will be listed in the list of rebels from now on, which is difficult for Li Xiyan to accept no matter what, so he can only answer the promise in a muffled voice.

The remnants of the soldiers in Guabu Prefecture poured out of the nest that night and rushed straight to the periphery of Jiangning City. After only one night's work, the Jiangning defenders suddenly found that the mountains outside the city were full of Tang troops, and as far as the eye could see, there were dense flags and crowds.

When Yongwang Li Lan got the report, he was using the morning, and he didn't believe it at first. The straight road Jiangning is surrounded by mountains and rivers, the terrain is dangerous, and there are no 100,000 ordinary people and horses, so they don't want to besiege the city.

However, for the sake of safety, Li Li immediately summoned Ji Guangchen and other generals to the city with him to investigate the enemy's situation.

Ji Guangchen, Hun Weiming and others had not yet left Jiangning to return to the place, and followed Li Lan to climb the Jiangning city wall. The scale of Jiangning City is not large, the scale can be compared with the county seat of Shangxian, but it is also two or three zhang high. Li Lan looked out at the female wall, and saw that the flags were dense, the southeast wind was blowing, the branches and leaves of the trees were swaying together with countless flags, and he couldn't see through how many people and horses were hiding in the mountains and forests outside the city.

Seeing such a situation, Li Lan's heart hung again, his hands trembled involuntarily, and he suddenly remembered the emperor's brother's record of sticking to Chang'an, and it took less than half a year to completely annihilate Sun Xiaozhe's 200,000 rebels, and it was difficult to guarantee that he would not overwhelm the Jiangnan soldiers.

Ji Guangchen's words yesterday are still in his ears, if the imperial court besieges Jiangnan with 100,000 horses, it must avoid the enemy's edge, although it is not explicitly said, everyone can see that this is impossible to beat!

Li Lan walked all the way east along the road on the city wall to observe more comprehensively, but I don't know if it was because of the fear in his heart, he didn't pay attention to the stumbling under his feet, and the whole Ren suddenly fell into a dog and chewed.

This fall was in front of all the soldiers on the city wall, and Ji Guangchen, who was following Li Lan, couldn't bear to witness it, turned his head away, and said in his heart: King Yong is a shame this time!

The shame is still secondary, the most important thing is to shake the morale of the army, the dignified Yongwang was scared by the suspicious soldiers outside the city into this virtue, so what do the soldiers who left life and death to follow him think?

For a veteran like Ji Guangchen, who has experienced dozens or even hundreds of battles, he can see at a glance that the seemingly large-scale ambush outside the city is real. Most of the mountains and forests and flags are hidden from each other, but there are not a few real soldiers, which is obviously suspected of being suspicious.

Half of the battle is psychological tactics, and whoever loses an inch first will lose half of it first.

But King Yong is almost frightened now, how many times can he withstand the difficulties and dangers in the future?

Just King Yong's fall made Ji Guangchen have so many ideas, only the main owner of wrestling, Li Lan still doesn't know it. I saw that after he was helped up by his entourage, he laughed at himself in embarrassment:

"Hurry, hurry......"

But who can trust this stammering and dry excuse?

"King Yong doesn't have to worry, this must be a suspicious soldier deliberately planted by Gao Shi, in order to hit the morale of our army. If the king of Yong does not believe it, he will send three or five thousand men and horses out of the city to clear it, and it will be as I expected!"

Li Lan seemed to have no idea, so he nodded and agreed to Ji Guangchen's invitation.

Half an hour later, thousands of foot soldiers left Jiangning City, and after a period of looting, they really recovered a lot of Tang Army banners, but they were not caught alive. When asked, there were only those flags all over the mountains, and I hadn't seen half a figure from beginning to end, let alone a human figure, and even a ghost shadow hadn't seen half of it.

In this way, Ji Guangchen believes in his own judgment even more, this is Gao Shi's suspicious soldier, but unfortunately this trick is of no use to him. Now that he has confirmed to King Yong that the outside of the city is a soldier's strategy, the next step is to consider how to completely annihilate the remnants of Li Xiyan and Li Chengshi.

Li Ling pondered for a while before asking:

"It's not that Gao Shi waited for 100,000 horses from Guanzhong, but what about his men and horses? Even if half of them are falsely reported, there are still 50,000 people, right? How can it be that there is no one in the mountains and fields outside the city?"

In this regard, Ji Guangchen believed that Gao Shi was very likely to come lightly and did not bring many people, so he immediately asked King Yong to order to clean up all the Tang Dynasty military flags in the mountains and fields outside the city.

Around sunset, the clean-up work was gradually completed, and Li Luan saw that the outside of the city had recovered as before, and his heart was much more stable.

But who would have thought that early the next morning, the military officials came to report again, and the outside of the city was full of flags from the mountains to the north.

Only this time there were not only flags, but also rumbling war drums and shouts one after another.

After Li Lan heard this, he immediately summoned Li Hao and Wei Zichun, the kings of Xiangcheng, and asked them to discuss their opinions, and then he discussed with Ji Guangchen.

Wei Zichun thought that this was Gao Shi's deployment of suspicious soldiers, and as for the banners and war drums, they were just tricks of suspicious soldiers.

The opinion of Li Wei, the king of Xiangcheng, was roughly the same as that of his father, and he felt that it was better to believe it than not to believe it.

Since the three of them failed to reach an agreement, Li Lan did not summon Ji Guangchen, but only ordered him to postpone his return to Guangling, including Hun Weiming and others were also stranded in Jiangning City. Li Lan's intention is very simple, that is, to keep these people by his side, so as to ensure his safety to the greatest extent.

In the meantime, Li Lan once again ordered people to go out of the city to clean up the Tang Dynasty military flags in the mountains, but was opposed by Ji Guangchen, thinking that this was a waste of energy, and it was possible to ambush the soldiers scattered in the mountains and fields out of the city, so he had to give up after insisting to no avail.

After noon, the sun was scorching the earth, but the war drums outside the city were getting louder and louder.

After nightfall, the sound outside gradually died down, and Li Lan tossed all day, physically and mentally exhausted, so he lay down early to rest. When the good dream was fragrant, he woke up suddenly, and suddenly heard the sound of walking water one after another, so he nervously summoned the eunuchs around him and asked what happened.

Who knows, the eunuchs didn't know what was going on outside, and most of them stood in the courtyard and jumped to their feet looking at the faintly red night sky. At this time, Li Wei, the king of Xiangcheng, rushed over in a panic.

"Father, the water in the city is burning badly, and the fire is afraid that it will not be able to be controlled for a while......"

Li Lan was already nervous, and when he learned that the city was flooding and the fire could not be controlled, he was on the verge of collapse.

"No, this is not a water, it must be the careful work of the imperial court soldiers and horses sneaking into the city, quickly, quickly, I want to get out of the city, get out of here, leave here far away...... It must be a fire, and the imperial court is about to attack the city......"

Li Wei was stunned, even though he knew that his father was nervous, but he was still unexpectedly caught in an almost illogical self-talk situation like this.

After shouting for a while, Li Lan saw that the people around him were stunned on the spot, and immediately pulled out the long arrow placed on the side of the couch, and said angrily:

"Whoever doesn't respect the order, there is no forgiveness for killing!"

……

Ji Guangchen had a headache, he was disturbed by suspicious soldiers for two days in a row, and now there was a fire in the middle of the night, and it was burned uncontrollably, it was really not a coincidence or providence. When I was worried in my heart, I suddenly had a military officer running to report the news.

"Big things are not good, big things are not good, Yongwang, Yongwang ......"

The military official was obviously too excited and nervous, and he talked about several Yongwang in a row, but he couldn't say the rest of the words.

Ji Guangchen frowned anxiously and asked:

"Say, what happened to the Yongwang?"

"King Yong took the king of Xiangcheng and his entourage out of the city from Jingyunmen......"

Ji Guangchen only felt that his head was buzzing, his body shook twice, and he almost fell. He stepped forward and grabbed the officer by the collar, his face contorted, and his voice sharp.

"When did King Yong leave?"

"Go, go, it's just a moment, and say, it's said that the people of the court have entered the city......"

Under the light of the fire, Ji Guangchen's face turned pale, and his expression was extremely terrifying, and it took a long time to let go of the hand that was only holding the collar of the military officer, and let out a long sigh.

"Alas, hurry up and chase it, what are you doing in a daze?"
