Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Enraged Soldiers of the Yokono Army

Li An and his entourage, hiding all the way, had long held their stomachs, and after seeing the village being ransacked by the Tibetan army, they were even more full of anger, at this moment, more than fifty cavalry of the Tibetan army were in front of them, if they were not eliminated, how could this evil breath in their hearts be swallowed.

"Whoosh ......"

A large number of arrows, with a vengeful rage, roared and flew towards the pursuing Tibetan army.

"Hiss...... Uh-uh-uh......"

The soldiers and horses of the Tibetan army were hit by a large number of arrows and let out a miserable howl.

Li An put back his bow and arrows, raised his spear, and rode his horse to kill the Tibetan army, and the brothers of Kunxiong, Feiyu and White Wolf Village also drew their melee weapons and rushed towards the pursuing Tibetan army behind Li An, while Lifei Shouyu continued to stay in place and release arrows.

The Fan army originally had an absolute advantage, but they did not expect that in the woods on both sides of the official road, they actually hid a group of men and horses and launched a fierce surprise attack on them.

After being attacked by bows and arrows, the Fan army was in a panic, and before they could react, Li An and the soldiers and horses behind him had already rushed up.

"Suffer death!"

Li An roared, full of anger, and stabbed the spear in his hand at a soldier of the Tibetan army.

How could the little soldier of the Fan Army block Li An's full force, and the spear instantly pierced his body, harvesting his life.

Ang wielded his spear and continued to charge, slashing two soldiers from the Tibetan army who tried to resist.

"Kill, leave no one."

With Li An's roar, everyone bravely slaughtered the panicked soldiers of the Tibetan army.

Half of them were killed and wounded by bows and arrows, and now they have been attacked by Li An and his gang, and the soldiers of the Tibetan army who were in a panic group, where did they still have a chance to escape, and they were all killed in a short time, and a small number of soldiers of the Tibetan army who tried to escape were also shot one by one by Li Fei Shouyu.

Seeing that the pursuing cavalry of the Fan Army was completely annihilated by Li An and his group, the pursuing Tang cavalry was greatly surprised and rode over.

"Thank you for saving me, I am grateful."

The cavalry of the Tang Army bowed their heads to express their gratitude.

Li An put away the blood-stained spear, looked at the burly Tang army cavalry, and nodded: "You're welcome, these Tibetan troops are bullying the people of the Tang Dynasty, as the people of the Tang Dynasty, it is natural for us to teach them a lesson, by the way, you are a Tang Dynasty soldier, do you know how many soldiers and horses have entered the Ulzhou Tibetan army?" ”

The cavalry of the Tang Army did not hide it, and said bluntly: "Don't hide it from Shaolang, under is Zhang Guangsheng, a scout of the Hengye Army, who was ordered by the army to investigate the enemy's situation, but was unexpectedly discovered by the Fan army. ”

'Zhang Guangsheng, why is this name so familiar?' ’

When Li An heard this, he couldn't help frowning, and quickly thought that after the Tang Anshi Rebellion, there was a general named Zhang Guangsheng who suddenly rose to prominence, and this person's life was quite dramatic.

Zhang Guangsheng was originally an inconspicuous cavalryman of the Tang Army, who saved the life of the general Wang Sili when Ge Shuhan was defeated by the rebels, and then for this reason, he interceded for his boss Xin Yunjing in front of Wang Sili, thus becoming the life-saving benefactor of Wang Sili and Xin Yunjing, and Wang Sili became a brother with him.

The return of the two made Zhang Guangsheng quickly rise to prominence and become a general of the Tang Dynasty, and he lived up to expectations, repeatedly defeated the Hui army that invaded the Tang Dynasty, and became a veritable general of the Tang Dynasty to protect the country.

Then he was pushed by current events, became a border butcher, and finally became a rebellious minister and thief in the Jingyuan Mutiny.

However, in general, Zhang Guangsheng is worthy of recognition, he saves people without wanting to reciprocate, and loyally guards the border for the Tang Dynasty.

And the Tang cavalry in front of him is really Zhang Guangsheng, who is quite famous in the history of the Tang Dynasty?

Seeing Li An staring at himself and pondering, Zhang Guangsheng was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Ladies and gentlemen, now that the Fan army has entered Kou Weizhou, it is the time to employ people, you might as well go to the county seat with me, and with your skills, it is not difficult to make meritorious achievements." ”

Li An and Li Fei Shouyu glanced at each other, shook their heads slightly, and said, "The situation in Ulzhou is unknown, and we plan to stay here to investigate the enemy's situation." ”

Zhang Guangsheng nodded: "That's fine, then I'll leave in the future." After saying that, he turned his horse's head and rode his horse in the direction of Anbian City.

#####

In the direction of Anbian City, Zhang Qiqiu, the envoy of the Hengye Army, and all the generals under his command discussed how to deal with the current situation in the big tent of the Chinese army.

They are very disgusted with these Hu Lu who often enter the Kou, but this is also the value of their existence, if there is no enemy to enter the Kou, those of them who are generals will lose the opportunity to make meritorious contributions.

From the mouths of the people and merchants who took refuge in the city, they learned that the Tibetan army was numerous, and they were afraid of no less than tens of thousands of horses, and they were moving around and robbing the villages of the Tang Dynasty.

Zhang Qiqiu's Hengye Army is only 3,000 people, and it is an infantry-based army, if you take the initiative to attack and confront tens of thousands of cavalry, it is tantamount to an egg attack, only to stick to Anbian City, waiting for the main army to rescue, is the best way.

All the generals understood this truth, so when Zhang Qiqiu asked about the plan to break the enemy, most of the generals kept silent and looked helpless, and a few generals insisted on waiting for help.

Zhang Qiqiu is in a dilemma at the moment, whether he fights or sticks, he can't please him, there is little hope of winning the battle, and sticking to it is conniving at the looting of the Tibetan army, although the facts are already here, he has no better way, but the emperor who is so happy has no time to listen to your explanation.

The territory of Datang has been trampled on, the people have been bullied, someone has to be responsible for this, come out and accept the guilt! His Majesty the Emperor is the king of a country, and it is impossible to blame himself, and Ulzhou is his defense area of Zhang Qiqiu, and he is not responsible for who is responsible.

Of course, if the boss and the ministers of the court are willing to explain to him, then no matter what choice he makes, there will be no problem, no matter what era, hugging the thighs of the upper class is necessary for survival.

"Report, general, more than 1,000 people of the Tibetan army are digging the ancestral graves of the people in the northeast ten miles, and taking all the things that accompany the burial in the tomb."

Just when Zhang Qiqiu was in a dilemma, scout Zhang Guangsheng brought news that shocked him.

When Zhang Qiqiu heard this, his eyes widened in surprise, and the generals under his command exploded.

A lieutenant immediately pulled out the horizontal knife at his waist and shouted: "The Tibetan army dug my ancestral grave, this hatred is not shared, general, our army should immediately kill and destroy this group of Tibetan troops." ”

"General, most of the officers and soldiers of our army are the people of Ulzhou, and their parents and villagers were bullied by the Tibetan army, which has caused the morale of the army to fluctuate, and now the ancestral tomb has been destroyed by the Tibetan army, if you don't attack immediately, I am afraid that the soldiers will mutiny." A subordinate admonished.

Zhang Qiqiu had just taken up the post of Hengye military envoy, and he was not very familiar with the generals, and now he suddenly encountered such a thorny problem, which made him feel very painful, he understood that for an army, the military spirit is very important, if all the soldiers do not stop commanding, the consequences will be extremely serious.

The families of the generals under his command are basically in the city, so the villages in Ulzhou have been looted, and he can still control the situation, but at this moment, these Fan troops who should be killed actually dig up ancestral graves, which directly touched the core interests of the generals under his command, so that the generals who originally planned to stick to the reinforcements changed their minds and asked to go out of the city to kill the enemy.

Zhang Qiqiu sighed helplessly and ordered: "The whole army immediately prepares for battle, and is ready to go out of the city with this general to kill the enemy." ”

"General, this must be a conspiracy of the Fan army, there must be an ambush outside the city." Only one general stood up against the attack.

"Guo Ziyi, your ancestral grave is not in Ulzhou, so you naturally don't have to care, but the ancestral graves of most of our soldiers are in Ulzhou, how can you let the Fan army trample on it at will, hum."

"Guo Ziyi, if you object, stay in the city, and we can fight."

All the generals were completely enraged by the actions of the Fan army, even if there was a sea of swords and fires outside the city, they would not look back, after all, these generals were iron-clad men, even if they died in battle, they could not watch their ancestral tombs being wantonly destroyed by the Fan army.

And this general who spoke up against the war was Guo Ziyi, the right-hand man under Zhang Qiqiu, the envoy of the Hengye Army, and the number one general who later exterminated the An Lushan Shi Siming rebels.

The second half of Guo Ziyi's life is extremely brilliant, I believe no one will feel strange, but his life before the age of fifty, few people know, and there is no detailed record in the history books.

"General, you must think twice! Once the main force of our army is ambushed, it will be difficult to hold Anbian City. ”

Guo Ziyi still didn't give up and continued to persuade.

Zhang Qiqiu was in a state of confusion at the moment, he knew that what Guo Ziyi said was very reasonable, but most of the generals under his command asked to attack, and the situation of the scout Zhang Guangsheng's investigation was also very clear, the other party was only more than 1,000, maybe these soldiers just took a fancy to the funeral treasures of the cemetery, and there was no conspiracy.

And if you insist on not sending troops, once the news spreads in the army, the 3,000 soldiers of the Hengye Army are afraid that they will immediately mutiny, which will cause more serious consequences.

"General Guo, you and your five hundred soldiers will stay in Anbian City, and the rest of the soldiers and horses will attack with the general." Zhang Qiqiu glanced at Guo Ziyi and made a final decision.

Guo Ziyi took off her pocket, tears in her eyes: "General, you must take care." ”

Zhang Qiqiu frowned and glanced at Guo Ziyi, sighed slightly, and strode away from the big tent of the Chinese army, and the generals left behind him, and went to prepare separately.

Seeing Zhang Qiqiu and the generals insisting on going out of the city to face the battle, Guo Ziyi knew that he couldn't stop it at all, he was not the main general, and he didn't have the decision-making power of the Hengye Army, so he could only watch his comrades go on an adventure.
