The New Year is coming, and the news that the rebels have conquered Luoyang seems to have little impact on the people in Chang'an City. The atmosphere of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new made Chen Qianli feel emotional, thinking of those difficult days and nights in Xin'an, at this moment, it was like being in another world, just like the monstrous war ignited by the anti-Hu rebels, which never affected the huge hinterland of the empire.

No wonder the world only says that Chang'an is good, Chen Qianli has only been in this splendid and prosperous Chang'an City for a day, and he has already given birth to the sigh that the first 20 years were in vain. Only the mountains of anti-Hu heads in front of Qinglong Temple reminded him all the time that the anti-Hu had been turned upside down outside Tongguan, and if he didn't work hard, maybe Chang'an would be the second Luoyang!

When these words came out of Qin Shaofu's mouth, Chen Qianli's shock was incomprehensible, in his heart, Chang'an was a heavenly city that could not fall. It's really hard to imagine what the fate of Datang will be like if Chang'an also falls into the hands of Juan Lushan.

Since Qin Shaofu killed the rebellious Cui Anshi, his judgment and response to the situation have always been accurate and appropriate. This extremely pessimistic assumption is tantamount to pouring cold water on a few officials in the county court who have just won a great victory.

Which one is Chen Qianli, a county official in Xin'an?

A sharp voice, especially noticeable in the noise of onlookers.

At the feet of the Son of Heaven in Chang'an City, the powerful are like clouds, Chen Qianli does not dare to slack off on anyone, and when he hears that someone accurately called out the name of his subordinate, he raised his eyes and searched in the crowd.

In fact, there was no need for him to search for it effortlessly, and people had already consciously separated, only to see a white-faced and beardless blue-robed official standing on the spot.

"It's going down!"

"Tianzi Kounuma, Xin'an County official Chen Qianli Qinzheng Lou asked right!"

This is a palace eunuch, as soon as this remark came out, Chen Qianli was immediately flattered, and the emperor sent someone to the market to announce and summon him, what a glory this is!

The diligent government building is different from the forbidden palace with a deep lock on the palace wall, facing the east market and the people in the south, where there are major ceremonies and festivals, Li Longji, the son of heaven of the Tang Dynasty, often climbs this building to celebrate with the people. If Qin Jin could come to Chang'an in person and see the wide square in front of the Qinzheng Building, he would definitely have a sense of déjà vu.

Chen Qianli knelt on the hall, and he didn't know if it was because he had just passed through the palace gates, and he was dizzy, and it became more and more difficult to speak because of shortness of breath.

"Your Majesty the Emperor is safe!"

A voice seemed to come from heaven.

"Excuse me, give me a seat!"

"Don't hurry up, the saint will give you a seat without courtesy!"

It wasn't until the eunuch reminded him in a whisper that Chen Qianli came back to his senses, straightened up slightly, bowed his head and replied in fear: "The minister doesn't dare!"

The voice asked again: "Xin'an Jiebao has seen it, you are very good, and you are worthy of being the warriors of my Datang!"

"Thanks to the protection of Your Majesty's heavenly might, Qin Shaofu has made a decision, and the soldiers will use their lives!"

Chen Qianli collected and organized what he thought was the most appropriate words to respond to the praise of the Son of Heaven.

"Let's talk about the situation in Xin'an, I heard that Feng Changqing was defeated in Luoyang, how did you defeat Yihu with a small city and behead more than 10,000?"

Faced with the question of the Son of Heaven, Chen Qianli did not dare to add the slightest amount of oil and vinegar, and told how Qin Shaofu killed the rebellious Cui Anshi, how to train the unity soldiers, and finally set up a clever plan to ambush the rebels.

After Qin Jin had already written clearly in the book of Song Jie, Chen Qianli escorted the head of Hu to Chang'an in person, mainly to be ordered to listen to the attitudes of all parties in Beijing to the current situation. Unexpectedly, the emperor summoned him directly.

The Son of Heaven seemed to be very interested in Qin Jin, and even asked a few questions related to Qin Jin, and even asked about his family background in detail.

Chen Qianli was just an assistant beside Qin Jin, and he didn't know much about these things, so he was asked. Instead, a purple-robed important minister sitting on the side said in detail, "This person is the thirteenth year of Tianbao's Jinshi and the first, and the Jinshi of that subject have also listened to the teachings of the saint in the Qinzheng Building!"

The Son of Heaven patted his forehead gently, trying to recall the events of that year, trying to remember a scaly claw in dozens of vague faces, but he was too old, and many things that had just happened may not be remembered in a blink of an eye, let alone so far away a year ago.

Datang established the country with martial arts, and has always emphasized the importance of entering the prime minister, and the founding military will enter the prime minister with military merits. After a long time, the number of prime ministers who were born in Jinshi gradually increased, but almost without exception, they all became only able to enter the prime minister and not become a general. A person like Qin Jin, who was born as a jinshi and made good use of soldiers, was suddenly born, and immediately stood out from the crowd and received the attention of this old man.

The thousands of shocking reverse beard heads in front of Qinglong Temple, Gao Lishi personally went to inspect it, and there was no possibility of fraud. The Son of Heaven only sighed, such a young talent can't be seen in person immediately.

His gaze was projected on the purple-robed minister beside him through his flabby eyelids, and the Son of Heaven sighed in his heart.

Over the years, he has reused several prime ministers, from Zhang to Li Linfu, and then to Yang Guozhong in front of him, all of whom are people who use power and scheming as their bodies, not as national talents. Although such a person is obedient and easy to use, he cannot be messed with. Now that the country is in crisis, he can't find a usable talent in a hurry, and he can only continue to rely on those people around him who only use power to establish their lives, which is his great sorrow at this moment.

The Son of Heaven admired Chen Qianli's loyalty and bravery, and planned to keep him by his side. After Chen Qianli thanked him, he bluntly said that he was willing to kill the thief for His Majesty, but he politely refused!

It wasn't until he left Xingqing Palace that Chen Qianli felt afraid, being able to serve with the emperor was a chance that many people couldn't dream of, and he actually refused, and he didn't know whether this move was a blessing or a curse, and whether it would anger the unpredictable emperor.

At this time, Chen Qianli could not have imagined that today's meeting would have a great impact on him in the future.

When I returned to the post house, I was greeted by the unity soldiers brought by Xin'an to report: "There is a guest visiting, and I have been waiting for a long time!"

When he didn't have to face the Son of Heaven, Chen Qianli's mind immediately became clear, their eyes were black in Chang'an, there was no old man at all, who came to visit? Soon, the mystery was revealed. The one in front of him in men's clothes was actually the daughter of Wei Xianggong.

Chen Qianli looked at the men's beauty in front of him vigilantly, and the officials of Xin'an almost killed her as the bereaved family of Cui Anshi, if it weren't for Qin Shaofu's insistence, this woman would have turned into an underground ghost long ago. She appeared in the inn, what did she want?

"There will be a big change in Chang'an, this letter must be delivered to Qin Shaofu within one day, it will be too late!" Wei Qiao's tone was very hurried, and there was no meaning of "reminiscing" to settle accounts, Chen Qianli still looked at her vigilantly,

"I don't know if Madame is willing to tell me, what is said in the letter!"

Wei Wan didn't want to say it, but after thinking about it, she gritted her teeth and still told her: "The Son of Heaven wants to kill the two doctors of Feng Gao......"

This news made Chen Qianli's heart beat wildly, when he met His Majesty in Qinzheng Building just now, he was facing a peaceful old man, but who would have expected that the same person could kill two highly meritorious ministers at every turn.

……

Xin'an, Qin Jin counted the days with his fingers, counting Chen Qianli's arrival in Beijing, and counting when Chen Qianli should return to Xin'an. He urgently needed to know now the attitude of all parties in Chang'an City towards the current situation.

After the war, Qin and Jin once again expanded the unity army, from 1,000 to 2,000 people, specializing in gun training, in a hurry, still like the first batch of unity soldiers, can only master a few slogans such as simple marching in unison and standing. When he annihilated the Tongluo Division, he captured about hundreds of intact war horses, and he selected Ding Zhuang, who could ride horses, to form a cavalry with a size of hundreds of people.

Although the combat effectiveness is not the same as that of the cavalry of the Tibetan army, it has to be said to be a qualitative leap for Xin'an from scratch.

However, just as Xin'an was preparing to fight again, bad news came to Xin'an with a rout.

"What, the rebel Hu rebels crossed the Yellow River from the south of Yuan County and attacked Michi?"

"The rebels are now marching towards Kipshi, and they may not know that the traitors of Xin'an have lost the battle!" said one of the lieutenants in the rout.

It was the middle of winter, the Yellow River was frozen, and the rebels could hardly cross the Yellow River from anywhere. Mianchi is located in the upper reaches of the valley, less than a hundred miles west of Xin'an, once the pond and Kip stone fall into the hands of the rebels, it will become meaningless to hold Xin'an, and even Xin'an itself will face the danger of being caught between the east and the west.

After thinking about it for a while, Qin Jin suddenly realized that whether it was attacking Xin'an, or crossing the Yellow River from Yuanxian County to attack Mianchi, these were all strategic means of the rebels. Although he succeeded in defeating the rebels attacking Xin'an and achieved a partial tactical victory, he was a complete failure from the overall strategic point of view.

The fall of Michi would render his victory in Xin'an meaningless.

The road in front of Qin Jin and Xin'an is getting narrower and narrower, and holding on has become meaningless, can they only choose to retreat?

It is not easy to retreat, the Xin'an army will not leave behind its father, its elders and children, but if it drags its family with its mouth, is it still an army? What is the difference between it and the flight of refugees?

Qin Jin immediately sent someone to summon Zheng Xianli to discuss the matter with Qi Bihe, at least to reach a consensus on this matter within the Xin'an United Army now, and then make the next step.

Unexpectedly, after hearing the news of the loss of Michi, the two people had surprisingly the same attitude.

Withdraw from Xin'an and save your strength!

Qi Bihe was different from Chen Qianli, he directly suggested that he only leave with Ding Zhuang. The news that Reverse Hu Lushan is about to become emperor has reached Xin'an, and he thinks that in order to buy people's hearts, Reverse Hu will not do such a stupid thing as slaughtering and losing the people's hearts.
