Chapter 109: Helping the General Regardless of Himself (9)

Mobile reading

Sensing that something was wrong, Huo Ba Gui Ren reined in his horse, hesitated for a moment, jumped off his mount, helped Ge Shuhan, who was paralyzed on the ground, and was about to embrace his war horse, and the chasing soldiers all over the mountains were close in front of him......

The mountain is strong and the mountain is suffocated, and the mountain is choked in Kyushu. Pinshu.com

After Ge Shuhan left with his troops, Wang Sili, who was guarding Tongguan alone, was both nervous and excited.

Tongguan blocks the Yellow River in the north, Qinling in the south, Huayue in the west, and Hangu in the east, chokes the key to the east and west capitals, and is the key to enter and exit the three Qins, and is known as the reputation of "the first danger in Jinnei" and "the throat of the four towns". Tongguan city south is high and low in the north, the radius is nearly ten miles, the wall is more than five zhang high, there are six city gates, and there is a water pass in the north and south. There is an urn city outside the east and west gates, and the urn city has a gatehouse, looking at all directions, and the momentum is magnificent.

Wang Sili inspected the tower of the East Gate, overlooking the endless rebel camps outside the city, and was excited. Since Luoyang and Shaanzhou were lost one after another, An Lushan's army gathered in the east of Tongguan and attacked day and night. Xingtong Pass south to Qinling Mountains as the screen, north to the Yellow River as the trench, east to the high plateau tiger to see the plain, there is a forbidden ditch to cut off the traffic, people say "close the door to choke Kyushu, the birds can not pass".

Relying on this natural danger, Ge Shuhan commanded the defenders with the Longyou and Hexi armies as the backbone, and used the counterweight stone cannons and fierce oil fires provided by Tingzhou to repeatedly thwart the rebels' attacks. As Ge Shuhan's most relied on confidant, Wang Sili has also become famous with one victory after another, and he is getting closer and closer to his coveted position as deputy envoy of Jiedu.

Thinking of his younger brother Wang Yong, his friend Li Sheng, his old friend Lifei's brothers, and Liu Poyu, who was bored to guard Pujindu, Wang Sili couldn't help but be glad that he knew the hero with his eyes back then, and formed a good relationship with Ge Shuhan in time, so he was still smooth sailing after the marshal was demoted.

In the dead of night, Wang Sili occasionally admires his younger brother's unhesitating and Li Sheng's scheming, and the guilty worm will bite out small holes filled with chagrin and remorse in the depths of his heart. However, when the sun rises, he is still reluctant to get his hands and the glory and wealth that is about to come.

After rescuing Wang Fei on the bank of Luoshui, Wang Sili's hatred was alleviated a lot, so he was able to draw more and more fame.

In order to reach a higher level as soon as possible, Wang Sili heard that the government and the opposition had a lot of criticism of the right minister, so he strongly persuaded Ge Shuhan to push the boat down the river to eradicate Yang Guozhong and cut off the reason for An Lushan's army. The cautious Geshu Jie Shuai did not adopt Wang Sili's idea, but the right minister, who had already aroused the anger of the heavens and people, was destined to become a stepping stone for others to go.

Wang Sili has always admired the handsome Geshu Jieshuai who drives in all directions, and he also knows a little about his conspiracy with the East Palace. And whether the prince can get what he wants tonight, Geshu is already invincible. Donggong won the special merit of the dragon, and the prince was defeated and had the merit of "recapturing" the pass. However, if the East Palace wins a big victory, Geshu Jieshuai needs to worry about how many people will share the merits with him. Therefore, when he learned that the Suye army had entered Gyeonggi, the commander of Geshu could no longer hold back, and hurriedly ordered his troops to rush to the turbulent Chang'an City.

Raising wings and hooking the moon, the snow shadow brushes the remnant stars.

Just as he was thinking, there was a sudden sound of wings flying overhead, Wang Sili did not hesitate to bend his bow and shoot into the dark blue night sky, one pigeon fell in response, and more pigeons flared their wings and fled to the east.

"Fly with credit

Slave! When the tooth soldiers brought the arrow pigeon, Wang Sili saw at a glance the strip of cloth tied to the pigeon's leg.

Wang Sili listened to his younger brother in the letter that the flying pigeon has been passed down for a long time, but because it is difficult to avoid the bow and arrow, it has been used sporadically and occasionally. Fei Langjun spent a lot of effort to select the good breeds of Fei Nu and create his own method of secrecy, so that the Fei Nu passed on the book without the risk of leakage, and the world followed suit. For this reason, Su Yeju constantly changed the secret book, and selected students who were proficient in arithmetic, learning, and translation from Su Ye Yixue, and secretly cracked the encryption techniques of all parties, and it is said that the progress was very smooth.

It's a pity that the Tongguan garrison doesn't have such talents, Wang Sili turned over and looked at the strips of cloth full of ghost-drawn symbols for a long time, but he didn't know why.

"Let's keep it for now, and I'll talk about it when the marshal returns." Wang Sili understood that under the cover of the dark night, the forces of the Quartet were ready to move. And with his talents, the only thing he can do is to do his best to defend Tongguan for Ge Shuhan.

The golden drum roared for hundreds of miles, and Hu Ma forced the city to close.

Soon after Wang Sili put away the cloth, there was a sudden earth-shaking sound in the rebel camp, and it seemed that tens of thousands of strong men shouted in unison: "Marshal Geshu was ambushed by Yang Guozhong in Huazhou, life and death are unknown, brothers in Tongguan, quickly open the city gate, slaughter Yang Guozhong with our army, and avenge Geshu Marshal!" ”

The deafening shouts were like a high mountain towering into the sky, obscuring the small hill composed of the sound of soldiers leaving the camp, the neighing of war horses, the sound of bed crossbow strings, and the movement of stone cannons. Before dawn came, the rebels suddenly took on a siege posture.

"Jie Shuai was killed by Yang Guozhong?!" Wang Sili was shocked when he heard it at first, but after thinking about it, the prince had already taken action to kill King Sheng, who was guarded by elite soldiers, how could he let go of the right minister who had no soldiers. Moreover, Ge Shuhan led 3,000 soldiers and horses to Chang'an, and Yang Guozhong was able to capture the marshal with great achievements.

"Jie Shuai is dead?!"

"The Youzhou soldiers were also forced to rebel by the Yang family, and now Yang Guozhong, the vicious dog, has harmed the Jieshuai again, Wang Junzhi, we will simply kill into Chang'an and avenge the Jieshuai!"

"Revenge! Open the city gate and let the brothers in Youzhou enter the customs! ”

"Revenge! The king's envoy leads us to revenge! ”

The scolding and scolding soldiers of Longyou danced swords, guns, bows and crossbows, and wanted to embrace Wang Sili to open the door to meet the rebels, and several of the most ferocious soldiers had even rushed to the east gate of Tongguan. The soldiers and horses born in Hexi have been suppressed by the Longyou Army since An Sishun was given to death and Dong Yanguang was killed in battle. The recruits who were temporarily recruited were trembling in two streams, their eyes fixed on the west, and they wanted to run back to Chang'an immediately.

"Nonsense!" Wang Sili pulled his bow like the moon and his arrows shot out like lightning, and in an instant, he indirectly shot and killed four soldiers who rushed into the east gate.

"Tooth Soldiers, kill the rebels who left their posts without permission!" After killing four people in a row to temporarily suppress the chaos, Wang Sili immediately dispatched the most reliable Longyouya troops, intending to suppress the chaos by thunderbolt. He didn't want to do this to stop the boiling, but tonight Chang'an was treacherous, and the conspiracy and ghosts in the meantime couldn't be explained at all, let alone to the ignorant soldiers.

"The marshal has been secretly edicted to enter the king of Jingqin, and his life is worry-free, and the brothers must not stop the tricks of the rebels!" The fierce fangs raised their swords and cut off dozens of heads, barely subduing the rebels.

"Yes, it's all a rebel trick! The festival marshal has the courage of ten thousand people, how can he be captured by Yang Guozhong! Wang Sili's henchmen spoke out one after another.

"The rebels' carving insect skills want to disrupt our army's heart, and then take the opportunity to seize Tongguan." Wang Sili shouted loudly: "Brothers, prepare to meet the enemy! ”

For the nine thousand mountains, the success fell short.

Seeing that he was about to lead the anger of his soldiers and horses to the rebels, Bian Lingcheng's mournful screams came from outside the west gate of Tongguan: "Wang Junzhi, open the door quickly, Geshu Jie Shuai was ambushed, it's all over!" ”

"What!" Wang Sili suddenly felt dizzy, and the soldiers in the gate heard it and clamored again.

"Open the door slowly!" Wang Sili forcibly suppressed the panic in his heart, drove his horse along the wide city wall to the West Gate Tower, leaned over and asked, "Border Supervisor, who ambushed the Jieshuai?" ”

"It's dark, how do you know who the soldiers and horses are. Wang Jun envoy, and Rong entered the customs and said slowly. Bian Lingcheng, who was lying on the back of the mule and was out of breath, shouted sharply: "It is estimated that there are still chasing soldiers behind!" ”

"Chasers?!" Wang Sili hurriedly took off the binoculars and stared westward, the black and steep horizon was faintly flickering.

"Could it be that what the rebels said is true...... Wang Sili shuddered as he pulled out the strip of cloth he had intercepted from the pigeon's leg.

"Open the door! Open the door! The defeated soldiers who followed Bian Lingcheng were chattering and shouting.

"Open the door to welcome Brother Youzhou and avenge the festival marshal!" In Tongguan City, people's hearts were once again in turmoil, and even the soldiers of Longyouya became hesitant.

To add insult to injury, to the west of Tongguan, the land of Gyeonggi, which was supposed to be a safe rear, suddenly burst into flames, and it was obvious that there were cavalry approaching at a rapid pace.

"Wang Sili, don't open the door yet!" Bian Lingcheng, who was angry and anxious, couldn't help but scold: "You are no more than a dog of Ge Shuhan, how dare you be so rampant tonight!" ”

"Border Supervision Army, Rusu North Pu Jiandu." Wang Sili forcibly suppressed the anger in his chest and explained: "If what the prison army said is true, the enemy army will arrive in a moment, and the rebels in the east will also set up a position to attack the city, and Tongguan is about to fall into battle, so it is better for the prison army to leave." ”

"Wang Sili, the black lights are blind and the danger is everywhere, you actually let me travel nearly 100 miles to Pujindu!" Bian Lingcheng was furious: "Tomorrow, I will play Your Majesty and remove you from your official position!" ”

"Tooth Soldiers, pass on a certain military order, prepare to meet the enemy! Those who dare to talk nonsense and shake the hearts of the army will be killed! The sound of horses' hooves approaching like raindrops and approaching made Wang Sili ignore the clown-like threat of Bian Lingcheng jumping off the beam.

"Open the door! Open the door! Bian Lingcheng also heard the thunderous sound of horses' hooves and was panicked.

"Open the door!" "Quickly open the city gate and kill the lackeys of the Yang family with Brother Youzhou!" The chaotic soldiers in the pass were noisy again, and the tooth soldiers with limited manpower could not suppress them at all.

"Shut up!" Wang Sili turned around and shot several rebellious soldiers, and after barely calming the situation, he aimed the sharp arrow cluster at the barking Bian Lingcheng: "Border Prison Army, Tongguan is in danger, you have always spared your life, why don't you protect yourself in the north?" ”

"Phew! Goguryeo slave who is full of guts, now the life and death of Geshuhan are unknown, and Tongguan respects a certain person, and quickly opens the door for me! Bian Lingcheng took out the token given by the saint and looked hideous: "Do you want to follow the example of An Lushan dog thief and plot rebellion!" ”
