Chapter 1214: Anyang City Broken
Divert water to irrigate the city!
The example of flooding the Seventh Army has never been uncommon throughout the dynasties, however, it also means that even if it is thousands of miles away, it will not hesitate to be determined. Whether it is Cui Qianyou, Tian Qianzhen and Sun Xiaozhe, they are all living in Youyan, they never thought that Du Shiyi would look gentle and elegant, and he would really be so ruthless. You must know that in addition to more than 20,000 rebels in Anyang City, there are still many innocent people.
Sun Xiaozhe's gaze at Du Shiyi was already a little different, and he was deeply afraid. He is a Khitan, and the most convincing rule is that the law of the jungle is that the weak eat the strong, so for Du Shiyi, who did not have the courage of ten thousand men but occupied the marshal throne, he was not very convinced, he only felt that the other party was just lucky. But now, he no longer has the kind of humiliation of being trampled under his feet, because he knows very well that if he really comes to this move, An Qingxu will definitely be difficult to support, unless Cai Xide, who is really surrounded by soldiers in front, goes south to relieve the siege, otherwise there will be no suspense about the result.
By that time, the rebels would be even more precarious!
"Xue Song has already recovered Fuyang for me, since the three of you have come to serve, are you willing to take Anyang for me?"
Of course, Cui Qianyou, Tian Qianzhen, and Sun Xiaozhe would not think that Du Shiyi would just drive the ducks to the shelves and let them lead the troops to kill on the city wall, and kill them with the former robes. Since Du Shiyi clearly proposed to keep them alive, the task given to them should be accomplishable, not absolutely impossible. Therefore, Cui Qianyou was the first to respond: "I am willing to serve the marshal as a dog and horse!" ”
One agreed, and the other two were no exception. At this time, Du Shiyi asked Huya, "How many people did they bring with them on this trip?" ”
Cui Qianyou, Tian Qianzhen, and Sun Xiaozhe all tacitly agreed not to mention this matter before, but in the face of such a problem at this moment, they secretly shouted that it was not good. Sure enough, the old man who had put a lot of pressure on them just now suddenly glanced at them meaningfully, and then bowed down and replied respectfully: "Marshal Hui, in addition to the three of them, there are more than twenty people in total. ”
In other words, these three guys are really fleeing in all directions, and they have no place to live at all!
Du Shiyi saw that none of the three of them had the courage to look at him, so he slowly stood up and said word by word: "It doesn't matter if you don't have soldiers and horses, if you break Anyang, you will always have to surrender troops, and it will not be difficult to distribute hundreds of them." But the premise is, I don't want to be blocked under this Anyang City for too long! Come on, take them to see Anqingzong, attack the city today, let the three of them and Anqingzong together, let the wind out, if the defenders of Anyang don't open the door and surrender again, don't blame me for letting them taste the taste of flooding Anyang! ”
When Cui Qianyou and the three of them were hiding in the mountains and forests of Yejun County before, they had heard about Du Shiyi's order to persuade An Qingzong to surrender. However, An Qingzong has had no news since An Lushan rebelled, but now it suddenly appeared, and they always thought that this was just a little trick played by Du Shiyi. However, when they searched through the layers and finally entered the small military tent and saw the people, they all gasped.
It's really Anqingzong! Although this eldest son has not been in Youzhou for many years, they have all accompanied An Lushan to Beijing, at least they will not recognize the wrong person!
An Qingzong vaguely felt that these three people were a little familiar, and when he was about to ask, Tian Qianzhen preemptively asked, "Eldest son, don't you remember Ah Hao?" ”
"Ah Hao, you are Ah Hao!" An Qingzong stared at Tian Qianzhen in disbelief, and suddenly hugged his arm with great joy, "It's really Ah Hao, it's really you!" Are you here to save me? No, are you here to help me? Ah Hao, you don't know, since Grandpa rebelled in Youzhou, I am really scared, and I am afraid that I will not see the sun tomorrow every day! ”
What kind of virtue An Qingxu, An Qingen and An Lushan's other sons are, Tian Qianzhen and the three of them all understand very well, and now seeing that An Qingzong, the eldest son, is also like this, they can't help but feel that even if An Lushan really sits in the world, just relying on these unsuccessful sons, it is enough to make the foundation of the dynasty collapse quickly! Therefore, even Tian Qianzhen, who had played with An Qingzong when he was young, did not have much interest in perfunctory this eldest son, who was like a frightened bird. The future is hopeless, but if this life is so wasted, he is really unwilling!
It was a siege of the three armies before, and now it is also a siege of the three armies, but An Qingxu's feelings are very different. Whether it was Li Guiren before, Yan Zhuang, Ashina Chengqing, or Gao Shang, everyone was at least confident and had the kung fu to comfort him, but since Du Shiyi arrived, he found that these civil and military forces no longer regarded him as the successor of Dayan. Even if An Lushan has now been announced to have died of illness, and even he has held a simple enthronement ceremony in this Anyang City and ascended the throne as the emperor, but the number of etiquette on the surface can no longer be cared about, let alone real respect.
Moreover, he didn't expect that An Qingzong, the eldest brother of his mother's compatriot, was still alive, and in recent days, he has been helping the Tang army outside the city every day to attack the city!
"Your Majesty, let's go up to the city tower!"
Every time he heard Yan Zhuang's words, An Qingxu would feel annoyed and bored. He didn't want to hear An Qingzong's voice now, and he didn't want to see his brother! Of course, he would not fail to see the low morale and wavering of the morale of the army, just these days, Li Guiren has had to use the cruel method of sitting together to deter those soldiers who want to become deserters or sacrifice the city. This qiē is all because of his stupid mother, brother, brother! So, An Qingxu sneered and said, "Don't go, it's enough to have General Li in charge, why let me be that mud bodhisattva?" ”
Yan Zhuangdeng's face sank, and his eyes revealed a few things that he couldn't say, but he didn't force it anymore, but turned around and left directly. When he got outside, he glanced at the sky full of dark clouds, and thought that with the news of An Lushan's death, he could no longer hide it, and now Dayan was in danger, not to mention that this Ye County might not be able to hold it, even Youzhou and Pinglu in the rear were also in danger. At this point, shouldn't he also think about himself? There is only one name left for this Xiangguo, if he can't make a decision on the spot, I'm afraid that he will even have to give away this life!
With such a complicated mood to the city, when Yan Zhuang saw that the Tang army once again set off a wave of thunder and rain to attack the city, remembering that it had been the case for several days, Li Guiren contemptuously thought that Du Shiyi was just talking on paper and planned to besiege the city to help, so An Shouzhong did not rashly lead troops to help, but held Fuyang, which was the best policy, Ashina Chengqing also seconded this judgment, but he always felt that something was wrong. And now, this sense of foreboding reached its peak when he found An Qingzong and several others outside the city being crowded onto a high platform.
It has been more than ten days since An Qingzong appeared, and his identity and what he announced are no longer as shocking as they were at the beginning, but Du Shiyi still comes to this trick every time, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?
Yan Zhuang was suspicious, and he saw a lot of shouting from the city. Knowing that the trebuchet was starting again, he quickly hid in the shelter like a turtle with a shrunken head. When this round of offensive passed, he was about to probe to ask about the movement, but unexpectedly, a pro-soldier ran over in a hurry, still holding a bamboo tube in his hand.
"Xiangguo, Xiangguo, there are a lot of such bamboo tubes tied to the stones this time, and there is a notice from the Tang Army in it!"
Yan Zhuang knew very well that this was the most inefficient way of propaganda, but at this moment, the morale of the army in the city was fluctuating, and any slightest change would cause the biggest trouble. You must know that because Du Shiyi did not use the rushing car to storm the city gate, they actually closed the city gate for several days, and they didn't even dare to attack, for fear that the people who sent out the city would surrender directly. He snatched the bamboo tube in a hurry, opened it and took out the paper inside, he just swept it, and his heart was cold.
An Shouzhong had already left Fuyang and went north to join Cai Xide to attack Changshan, and Xue Song, who had already died in the battle of Yongqiu, appeared in Fuyang, together with Xue Wei, to plot against the rebels left behind, and then surrendered to Tang, so tired that Ye County had also fallen into the hands of the Tang army! If it was just the news of the loss of Yexian and Fuyang, it would be just Cui Qianyou, Tian Qianzhen, and Sun Xiaozhe, the three guys who were blessed with great fortunes, and they actually survived the encirclement and suppression of the Tang Army before, and now they have all surrendered to Du Shiyi. The most terrible thing is that Du Shiyi actually threatened to build a dam to store water in the upper reaches of Huanshui, and Anyang City would be flooded at that time!
"It's over......"
Yan Zhuang spit out these two words in a daze, his mind was blank, and he even forgot to order people to go to the city to immediately take back these propaganda leaflets, so as not to further shake the morale of the army. However, with the loud sergeants outside the city shouting loudly, even if he had the heart to save the situation, it was already too late. He is not alone in the city, whether it is Li Guiren, Ashina Chengqing, or noble, when he learns these several consecutive bad news, he is all frightened at this time, and he has to pretend to be calm on his face. However, they can still pretend to be calm, but how many generals below can hold it down?
Cui Qianyou's three soldiers surrounded Chang'an, such a big crime can escape the death penalty, let alone them? If it falls, at least it can save the lives of the whole family!
"An Shou is loyal, there is more than enough success and more than failure!"
Although he was not in the same place at the same time, Li Guiren burst out in annoyance with the same scolding as Cai Xide. But at this time, it was useless to scold An Shouzhong again, he could only turn his heart sideways, looked at Ashina Chengqing and said: "Now the plan can only see if it can be delayed for a little time." Cai Xide's army has the help of An Shouzhong, and may be able to capture Changshan Zhending, so that they may return to the division at any time to save Ye County. After all, there are still more than 20,000 soldiers and horses in our city! Even if there is only a glimmer of hope, even if Du Shiyi declares that he wants to flood Anyang, he has to defend it! ”
Ashina Chengqing also never wants to surrender, if he sits on the left and west of Youzhou, it will be fine, but now they only have a lonely city in Anyang, what benefit do they have after falling?
"Okay, pass the order, if you can hold on until the reinforcements arrive, the army will reward each of them with 10,000 yuan! If there are two hearts, a team sits together! ”
Almost as soon as Ashina Chengqing's words fell, he suddenly heard a commotion in his ears. When he could tell what the shout was about, he almost fell headlong.
"The north gate is open, and someone has opened the north gate of Anyang City!"
