Hebei Changshan, Taishou Mansion.

Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi are the two pillars of the Tang Dynasty that are now in turmoil.

One is the festival envoy of the Shuofang army, and the other is the festival envoy of the Hedong army, all of them have gloomy old faces at the moment, and they don't say a word.

They had just finished listening to the scout's report, and their hearts could be said to be cold at this moment.

Within three days, the two had already gotten several pieces of bad news!

One of them is that the rebel general Yin Ziqi led an army of 70,000 to attack Taiyuan from the north of Luoyang!

When Li Guangbi led the Hedong army out of Taiyuan, only more than 10,000 horses were left to guard Taiyuan, but now the rebels are gathering to attack, which can be described as a critical situation!

The second piece of bad news is that after Gao Xiuyan defeated Youyu at the beginning, he gathered men and horses in Hequ to enter the Siege Yunzhong Mansion, and under the defense of Fugu Huaien and Guo Ziyi, Gao Xiuyan retreated to Hequ after defeat, and then united with thieves to bring Ashina Congli, lure Hequ Jiufu, and attack Lingwu, which is the base camp of the Shuofang army!

The third piece of bad news is that the rebel generals Cui Qianyou and Xulian Nazhen attacked Tongguan and beheaded more than 40,000 people.

The fourth piece of bad news is that the rebels in Shandong and Henan have all withdrawn from the front line, and at the same time, Siming is besieging Changshan in Hebei, which is where Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi are now.

The rebels came out on the same four fronts, blooming in all directions, and they were going to wipe out the entire Tang Dynasty with a sweeping momentum!

If Tongguan City is broken, then Chang'an City will no longer be in danger of defending, just like stripping the Beijing master Chang'an and Emperor Li Longji naked and placing them under the knife of the rebels.

And if Lingwu and Taiyuan are lost, then the Shuofang Army and the Hedong Army will have no foundation, and now these two teams are the new forces of the Tang Dynasty, if their base camp is breached, the consequences are self-evident!

Guo Ziyi sighed, and then asked, "Lao Li, what do you think should be done?" ”

Li Guangbi's eyebrows, nose and mouth were wrinkled, and he said when he heard Guo Ziyi's question: "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, I thought that if we hit Hebei directly, we would be able to attack the rebels' lair by surprise, who would have thought that there would be a fire in the backyard, and the current situation is really critical!" ”

Guo Ziyi shook his head a little helplessly, "This is also something that can't be helped!" ”

Guo Ziyi stood up, and then said: "Although the situation caused today is unexpected, it is certainly reasonable!" ”

Li Guangbi nodded: "What the marshal said is very true, on the one hand, the strength of the rebel army is hundreds of thousands, and the Shuofang army and the Hedong army together are only tens of thousands of horses, so the rebels have extra strength, besiege us at the same time, and attack other places!" On the other hand, An Lushan had just raised his army, and he was in the limelight, and the imperial court was negligent in guarding against it, so we still didn't expect the worst outcome! ”

Guo Ziyi heard Li Guangbi say this, and nodded thoughtfully: "Lao Li is right, my Datang can be described as stormy!" In recent years, traitors have been in charge, loyal and good have retreated, and there is a miasma in the world, which is like a person, who seems to be healthy, but in fact there are countless hidden dangers in the body, and An Lushan is a poisonous sore, once this poisonous sore erupts, it will lead to many diseases in this person's body to break out together, what I am afraid of now is this, with the precedent of An Lushan, I don't know how many people will follow suit in the future, alas! ”

Li Guangbi nodded heavily, was silent for a moment, and then said: "Now that there is an emergency on all sides, we have to think of countermeasures!" ”

Guo Ziyi frowned for a long time, but she was at a loss, and suddenly raised her eyebrows and said to Li Guangbi: "I have no choice but to withdraw the army." ”

In fact, Li Guangbi had already thought of this answer, but he was extremely reluctant in his heart!

Because they overcame thorns and thorns, they finally fought from Shuofang to Hebei, all the way, invincible, if they withdrew at this time, it would be tantamount to a mountain and nine thousands, and the success would fall short!

Guo Ziyi saw Li Guangbi muttering, of course he knew what he was thinking in his heart, to be honest, he didn't want to be old, it was really not easy to have today's situation.

Guo Ziyi smiled bitterly and said: "To tell you from the heart, Lao Li, I am also like you, I am unwilling to withdraw the army, but now there is really no way, think about it, if your Taiyuan and my Shuofang are lost, then north of the Yangtze River, I am afraid that all of them will fall into the hands of the rebels, and we, even Datang, will have no chance to turn around!" ”

Li Guangbi glanced at Guo Ziyi: "I understand what the marshal said, but this" Li Guangbi buried his head and sighed, "Now that the matter is over, I'm afraid I can only withdraw the army." ”

He seemed to think of something again, and then said: "It's just that General Wen Zhou and Chen are still in Fanyang, Hebei, if we withdraw our troops at this time, then what should the two of them do?" ”

Guo Ziyi had already thought of this section in her heart, and when she heard Li Guangbi's words, she didn't have any surprised expression, "There is also Prince Ye Hu who has returned to Hui!" The three of them are still in Fanyang, and we don't know what the situation is on their side! That's it, don't wait for them! ”

Li Guangbi was taken aback, "Don't wait for them?" Marshal, if we withdraw our troops right now, will we not leave a few of them behind, and Hebei will also fall into the hands of the enemy, at that time, how can a few of them escape? ”

Guo Ziyi's face was a little complicated: "Wen Zhou, this kid, seems to be weak, but he is actually a bold guy, I didn't expect him to kill Fan Yang alone!" ”

Li Guangbi shook his head and said: "Dashuai, you are wrong to blame him, after Wen Zhou went to Raoyang, he originally wanted to deceive Gao Miao and He Qianqian to Changshan, so he came back with him, but he didn't expect that Gao Miao had a whim, and asked him to escort Prince Ye Hu to Fanyang, and sent Cai Xide to follow, so he was forced to go to Fanyang!" ”

These are all reported to Li Guangbi by Nan Jiyun after returning from Raoyang, Guo Ziyi heard it, "I see." ”

After a while, Guo Ziyi said: "There is no other way now, our backyard is on fire, and we are facing the encirclement of several rebels, if we don't withdraw the army in time, I'm afraid we will end up with the destruction of the whole army, you and I are the masters of an army, you can't risk the destruction of the whole army for the sake of two people, this is too big because of a small loss!" ”

Li Guangbi knew this, but he really couldn't bear it.

Li Guangbi knew that Guo Ziyi's mood was probably even more uncomfortable than him, not to mention that Chen Wenzhou was his number one favorite general, but that Guo Chen was his biological daughter.

There is already a gap between the father and daughter, and if Guo Ziyi does this again, I am afraid that the gap between their father and daughter will be deeper.

Li Guangbi was about to speak, but Guo Ziyi waved his hand, "Guangbi, I know what you want to say, but we have tens of thousands of troops, and we can't take that kind of risk for the two of them, oh yes, didn't you say that Wen Zhou still has a bag?" ”
