612, Zhu Huan ambushed An Lushan, Taishi questioned Zuo Zongtang
Xue Rengui put away the sky-shaking bow in his hand, and the weapon he used now was the painted halberd of "Sai Fengxian" Guo Sheng, but the battle situation at this time was already one-sided, although An Lushan had an army of 10,000, but there was no fighting spirit at all, which was almost equivalent to a unilateral slaughter.

"Those who descend will not be killed!"
Seeing this, Zuo Zongtang immediately shouted for surrender, he did not pursue killing all these people, after all, the main body of the Eagle Falcon Army is also a Shanyue person, if it can be recruited for his own use, it will definitely be able to increase the scale of the Eagle Falcon Army. Although these soldiers are not strong in combat, they can be regarded as soldiers of a hundred battles, and when trained, they will inevitably be able to get twice the result with half the effort.
In the face of the encirclement and suppression of Zuo Zongtang's army, An Lushan and others fled, many of these Shanyue soldiers have completely lost their heart of resistance, with the chorus of Zuo Zongtang's army, many people instantly put down their weapons and knelt on the ground, shouting together: "I am willing to surrender!" ”
An Lushan's 10,000-strong army was attacked and killed more than 2,000 people, more than 2,000 people fled with An Lushan, and the rest of the nearly 5,000 soldiers and horses all surrendered.
Seeing that there are now less than 2,000 remnants, An Lushan's heart is dripping blood, and he still doesn't understand what the problem is, why he went and failed. Yang Youji came to An Lushan, sighed and pleaded: "It's all because the last general's skills are not as good as others, please punish the lord!" ”
"What kind of words does General Yang say! Wu Ming sent a large army to conquest, I don't know yet, but covet the land of Jingzhou, this is my own hardship, fortunately I have now rushed to Jiaozhou, the terrain here is complicated, snakes and insects infest, presumably Zuo Kui and others may not dare to chase after me......"
Speaking of this, An Lushan paused, and then asked Xiang Yangyuji with some uncertainty: "He shouldn't dare to come over, right?" ”
Yang Youji thought for a while and replied directly: "Didn't He Qi lead the army to rob the grain and grass escorted by the prince before?" It seems to be in Cangwu County, the lord ......"
After hearing this, An Lushan's face changed, and he immediately got up and shouted loudly: "Soldiers, go quickly, withdraw to the South China Sea!" ”
After finishing speaking, An Lushan didn't care about anything, and immediately turned over and got on his horse, and then he sent a messenger to Jiaozhou Longbian immediately to ask for help from Jiaozhou Assassin Shi Xie.
At this moment, An Lushan found that flags were erected around again, and the word "Zhu" was clearly written on the flag, and looking at the armor and robes, it was Zuo Zongtang's Eagle Falcon Army.
"Kill! Capture An Lushan alive! ”
With a shout, the army rushed to An Lushan's soldiers and horses together, and the leader was Zhu Huan, a subordinate general under Zuo Zongtang.
"Drop! Zhu Huan's skill thief forbearance was detected to trigger - Huan's thief forbearance, and the tiger and wolf were also killed. When he leads the army, he can adapt to the terrain of mountains and forests, and at the same time, when he is ambushed at a dangerous place, his command is +3, his force is +2, and his military force is +1.At present, Zhu Huan's command is increased to 94, and his force is increased to 91."
Zhu Huan like a tiger wolf! It seems that he is a good hunter and good at ambushing, Wu Liren just doesn't know what Zuo Zongtang is doing now, and what the outcome is.
The Eagle Falcon Army under Zhu Huan was full of morale at this time, and An Lushan's remnants were quickly and completely defeated, and only Yang Youji took dozens of henchmen to protect An Lushan and fought out of the encirclement.
Zhu Huan did not continue to pursue, otherwise if An Qingxu led the army to come to support, then he would definitely not be able to retreat with this mere two or three thousand men and horses - he would have to wait for Zuo Zongtang's order.
Zuo Zongtang was at the junction of Cangwu County and Guiyang County, after defeating An Lushan, he held the 5,000 captives who surrendered together, and together with the army of Huang Zhong and Tai Shici, he officially entered Jiaozhou and came to Lipu County in Cangwu County.
For a time, Lipu County gathered more than 15,000 people from almost all the elite troops under Zuo Zongtang, and the generals included Huang Zhong, Xue Rengui, Li Guang, Tai Shici, Lin Chong, Zhu Huan and He Qi.
Although this battle made Tai Shi Ci raise his eyebrows and take revenge, he was still angry about a series of things caused by the previous contradictions between Zuo Zongtang and Liao Li, his personality was straight, and he didn't hide it, and directly stepped forward and asked: "General Zuo, Ci has something unclear, what made the general and Liao Taishou turn against each other in the first place, which led to the loss of Guiyang later?" ”
At this time, Zuo Zongtang shook his head and said, "General Taishi, now that the matter has come to this, I know that you must have a lot of doubts in your hearts. If Zuo deliberately went to Liao Taishou to go against him, it was really Zuo's trust and had to do it as a last resort. ”
Tai Shici continued to ask: "Please General Zuo speak clearly and solve our doubts!" ”
"The princes know that if you want to take Jiaozhou in the south, not to mention the rugged terrain of Jiaozhou, there are many mountains and forests, snakes, insects, rats and ants are rampant everywhere, and the miasma is constant; In addition, An Lushan, Li Mi and others have strong soldiers and strong horses. At the same time, if I go far into the mountains and forests and attack An Lushan, my lips and teeth are cold, and Jiaozhou Shixie will definitely not stand idly by, and then we will face not only An Lushan, but also the entire Jiaozhou. So I wanted to be able to lure An Lushan out of Jiaozhou, so that we could find an opportunity to break them one by one. Once Li Mi occupies Guiyang County, Li Mi'an Lushan will inevitably have arrogance, and An Lushan will inevitably covet other counties in Jingzhou at that time. In this way, the army will continue to increase, but it is far away from Jiaozhou, and it is difficult to get timely supply of grain and grass. As long as I find a way to cut off its food and grass, its army will surely collapse without a fight. If An Lushan's army is all lost here, if I want to take Jiaozhou again, wouldn't it be easy? At that time, even if Shixie finds out the problem, what am I afraid of? ”
Hearing Zuo Zongtang's words, Tai Shi Ci seemed to understand, it turned out that everything was expected by Zuo Zongtang, but Liao Li did not agree to Zuo Zongtang's plan, insisted on going his own way, and after being defeated by Li Mi, he passively implemented Zuo Zongtang's plan.
"It's me who misunderstood General Zuo! Hey, I just don't know where Liao Taishou is now? If the lord knew, he would definitely not spare Liao Taishou. ”
At this time, Zuo Zongtang shook his head, "Liao Taishou is indeed a talent, wouldn't it be a pity if he was punished for this matter?" I will report this matter to the lord: Liao Taishou is a bitter trick used by Li Mizhong, so Liao Taishou not only has no fault, but has merit, and I hope that the generals can look at Zuo's face and not explain this matter in detail with the lord. ”
After speaking, Zuo Zongtang looked at Li Guang and Xue Rengui, after all, the two of them were personally dispatched by Wu Liren to help Zuo Zongtang, and they were closest to Wu Liren. Xue Rengui naturally reacted immediately, he was not a pedantic person, and said with a smile: "General Zuo repays his grievances with virtue, which is admirable, Xue Li will definitely keep his mouth shut and fulfill General Zuo's good intentions." ”
