15. Tang An holds a bow and arrow
After sending Ming Huaiyi away, Gao Yue sent someone to escort Su Yu, a captured Zhu Zhu slave, in his tent.
"Don't worry, I won't kill you, and I won't harm you." Gao Yue was pleasant, and then he said to Su Yu: "But I want to trouble you to go and tell the king of Suining County, and persuade him to recognize the obedience in time, but he can still be pardoned anyway." ”
Su Yu lay on the ground and didn't say a word.
"Alas, in fact, the Holy Lord also understands that when Li Huaiguang's soldiers were in chaos, the king of Suining County lived in Zhaoguofang, and he didn't have time to get away before he fell into the thieves, so it can be said that he couldn't help himself. Yue knew that the king of Suining County was a loyal minister for a lifetime, and all kinds of actions were definitely not from his heart. After finishing speaking, Gao Yue took a pen and wrote a letterhead in detail, then hid it in a wax pill, and asked Su Yu to give it to Zhu Jun.
Then Gao Yue Zhengse warned Su Yu that Jingyuan had been pacified, and Fengxiang's recovery was just around the corner, and my father-in-law had led the Shuofang army to attack Changwu City, so why should Li Huaiguang and Li Xilie be afraid? If the king of Suining County is still attached to them, there is no future, Yue's heartfelt words, please tell the king of Suining County as it is.
After speaking, Gao Yue sent Su Yu away.
In the days that followed, the camps of the two armies fell into a silent confrontation between Jiguan Mountain and Duyang Valley, and it was as quiet as the snow falling from Fengxiang's mountains and valleys.
But in Fengtian City, the snow was completely melted by the boiling fire!
Just the day before yesterday, Li Huaiguang personally led the army to storm the branch city barrier of Mogu in the north of the city, and Gao Chongjie and his subordinates who were guarding it desperately resisted, and Li Shi in the bell tower Xuan in the city saw this situation, and urgently ordered Xu Baohui to lead the army to rush out to support Gao Chongjie.
Hun Yang and Zhang Guangsheng both advised His Majesty that Li Huaiguang must have set up an ambush between Liangshan and Mogu, and that our army should not be taken lightly, and that General Gao Chongjie's barrier was strong, and it would not be a problem to hold on until night, and then send two or three hundred elites to reinforce after night, which would be safer.
But the emperor didn't listen, and insisted on asking Xu Baohui to lead 500 cavalry, rush out of Fengtian City, and gallop to the aid of Gao Chongjie.
As a result, a mile outside the city, Li Huaiguang's three-way ambush troops in the valley came out together, surrounded Xu Baohui's cavalry in the core, Xu Baohui was defeated, and seven or eight arrows were hit on his armor, and all his subordinates were killed and wounded.
The emperor, who was so anxious that he stomped his feet, urgently ordered Zhang Guangsheng to lead another 500 soldiers out of the city to meet Xu Baohui.
As soon as Zhang Guangsheng left the city, Li Huaiguang, Li Xilie, and Zhu Zhu all led their troops, rushed out from the Chisha Beacon Regiment under the Qianling Mountain, and continued to pour in, biting Xu Baohui and Zhang Guangsheng's men and horses to the death - for a while, the killing sound shook the sky, Zhang Guangsheng gathered his team, and was eager to retreat into the city, while Li Huaiguang and other rebels followed closely, and the soldiers of the two armies crowded in front of the gate of Fengtian City, each holding a long axe, a sword and a Mo knife, bloody melee and fighting.
For a while, at the tower of Fengtian City, the ministers and eunuchs did not know who it was, and shouted, "The thief has entered the city!" ”
Then everyone shouted like this, one after the other, and the hearts of the whole city almost collapsed.
On the bell tower in the inner city, Li Shi was so frightened that he sat paralyzed on the spot, unable to move. In the backyard, Wang Guifei gathered the crown prince, the crown princess, Tang An, Yiyang, Yanguang and other family members, with tears of despair in her eyes, saying that there is a well in the city, and the thieves are now breaking into the outer city, if you enter the inner city again, you can not be captured by the thieves and humiliated, you can throw yourself into the well, or let the gods or eunuchs kill you.
Tang An immediately trembled, her heart was full of reluctance and unwillingness at the moment, "I won't let you go after death"
The crown princess Xiao burst into tears.
Yanguang showed great courage, she got up and pointed at her daughter and shouted: "In the past, when Ma Wei was in the past, your aunt was not so timid as you!" ”
At this time, Tang An was also ruthless, stood up, and said, "You don't need to panic, the heavy wall and the inner city are still there, and our daughters will also climb the city and resist the enemy with bows and arrows!" ”
The crown prince Li Yu also got up and said that I will go with Tang An and my aunt.
Then Li Yu, Tang An and Yanguang personally took bows and arrows, and rushed to the heavy wall along the "Liantai" between the bell tower and the inner city, and sure enough, they saw the gate on the side, and the soldiers on both sides were blood-stained with armor, crowded together like ant colonies, fighting each other - Cai Fonu and Guo Xiaofeng personally stood at the city gate, wearing armor and wielding swords to fight to the death, resisting the crazy attack of the rebels.
And King Shu has been standing at the heavy wall, commanding the soldiers to "push firewood and grass carts, block the city gate", his little concubine sister Azang of the Qingdang Xiang clan, now called Cui Yunsheng, accompanied by King Shu, holding a wooden crossbow, waist and hip crossbow quivers, calmly shot one after another, shooting scattered thieves rushing in or over the in.
Tang An's heart was about to jump out, her mind was full of blankness, she only knew how to draw the arrow, put it on the string, and then shouted angrily and shot it out
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" It wasn't until an hour later that when Yan Zhenqing, Xiao Fu, Xiao Xin, Guo Yu and other courtiers came to the high hall of the bell tower, they kept shouting loudly, and they woke up the panicked Li Shi.
"Where are the thieves?" Li Shi came back to his senses and hurriedly asked.
"Hun Xuan, King Shu, Gao Chongwen, and the prince fought to the death from the heavy wall, and the thieves were killed by hundreds, and they have withdrawn from the gate, and the outer city is back in our hands."
Only then did Li Shi's heart settle down.
But he later learned that at the critical moment, it was Gao Chongjie in Mogu City Seri, who led his subordinates to counterattack without defending, rushed out of the fortress of the barrier, and violently attacked the back of the rebels, and divided the strength of the rebels to turn the situation into a safe one.
But Gao Chongjie and more than 100 subordinates, but none of them got out, they were besieged by the rebels, all of them died heroically at the foot of Liangshan, Gao Chongjie's head was beheaded by Li Huaiguang's subordinates Xi Xiaojun, picked on the long pole, stood on the Liangshan Plain, and could be seen from the distance of Fengtian City.
At the same time, in the battle of Qiaomen, Yulin General Lu Xiqian also died in the middle of the arrow, Xu Baohui and Zhang Guangsheng were injured, and the city army suffered five or six hundred casualties.
Li Shi cried loudly and personally worshipped Gao Chongjie's head on the bell tower.
Gao Chongjie is Gao Chongwen's younger brother, he has always been loyal and reliable, he was also hardworking and resentful when he was in Fengtian Yingcheng, and now he is dead, and everyone in the city is sad and weeping, Gao Chongwen is crying and fainting several times.
"Your Majesty, please listen to the minister's words, just watch the battle in Linxuan, and please leave the matter of the army formation to the generals!" Then, Yan Zhenqing was furious, sat in front of Li Shi, and scolded the emperor loudly.
"Qing's accusation is that the emperor hung his head and refuted wordlessly, and he also knew in his heart that this battle was almost ruined by his blind command."
At this time, on the top of the Qianling Tomb, Li Huaiguang, Li Xilie, and Zhu Zhu all stood in front of the cypress forest, overlooking the Fengtian City in the churning fireworks.
"Don't fight any more, Fengtian City is impregnable under Gao Yue's construction." Next to Li Yuanping pointed to the situation around Fengtian City, he now knows that the brother-in-law of Cui Yunhe, who he dreams of, is Gao Yue, "There is a lake in the east of the city and Ludian, and the passage is cut off, and it is difficult for our army's baggage supplies to arrive from Chen Taoxian, so they can only make a detour to Jingyang, and there is a heavy wall urn city in Fengtian City. ”
Li Huaiguang and Li Xilie also held similar thoughts.
But it is precisely Zhu Jun who is not willing, "The big cloud beam of the monks of Ximing Temple can be built tomorrow, as long as the city is broken, it can be completed, how can you give up halfway?" ”
