Chapter 1205: Thunder is loud and rain is small

An Qingzong saw Li Huaiyu come to him with an unkind face, and he had already become a frightened bird, he only felt trembling, and even sat a little unsteady on horseback. He glanced at Liu Luogu, and saw that this henchman who was reused by his father in the past had no choice but to turn his head, and he could only be driven forward involuntarily. When he saw Anyang City hundreds of steps away, he didn't know how to speak, and when Li Huaiyu's voice came from his ears, he finally realized his situation.

At this time, he can only say what others say, how he does!

At first, he opened his mouth tremblingly and shouted, but when he found that the sound was not even enough for the people around him to hear clearly, his face suddenly turned even paler. But as something suddenly hit his back, he suddenly shuddered, and immediately shouted: "I am An Qingzong, the eldest son of An Lushan, Yan Zhuang and Ashina Chengqing and others conspired to assassinate my grandfather An Lushan, the crime is extremely evil, if you still think about your own family and descendants, you will immediately surrender the city!" ”

Maybe he was scared too much, An Qingzong's words actually burst out with the strongest voice of the whole person, and his courage suddenly became bigger. Thinking of others promising to save his and his mother's lives, he saw a commotion on the head of Anyang City, so he said loudly: "My grandfather has always been a loyal minister of the Tang Dynasty, and he was instigated and held hostage by those ambitious guys, so he rebelled against the court!" After defeating Luoyang, Yan Zhuang and Ashina Chengqing and others were dissatisfied with my grandfather not personally sending troops to fight Chang'an, so they killed him and held my younger brother An Qingxu hostage, they are really evil! ”

After all, An Qingzong and his younger brother An Qingxu were both born to Mrs. Kang, and for Mrs. Kang, who fell out of favor in the early years, their brotherhood is genuine. Li Huaiyu's rhetoric to him was to blame Yan Zhuang and Ashina Chengqing for the crimes, and said that An Qingxu was held hostage, and even An Lushan was exculpated a little, where did he know what it meant to reverse black and white, he only felt that he had caught a life-saving straw. At this moment, he was already hoarse, he paused for a moment, and then cried out: "Qingxu...... Second brother! A-Niang and I miss you very much, don't lie to those guys again! ”

Under the banner of Shuo Fangjiedu, Guo Ziyi rode his horse and stood, listening to An Qingzong's shouting voice in the wind, his face was extremely delicate. However, the left-wing soldiers and horses beside him couldn't help it, and trotted a few steps over to stand beside him, and then said angrily and funny: "Marshal, what does marshal mean by this?" Let's not talk about whether this Anqingzong is true or not, if you act in such a play, could it be that those rebels in Anyang City will kill Yan Zhuang and Ashina Chengqing and surrender to Chengcheng? This is child's play! ”

When Guo Ziyi heard Li Huaiyu finish talking about this idea yesterday, he also felt child's play, but as soon as Li Huaiyu left, Du Shiyi confessed to him, Fugu Huaien and Cheng Qianli, that he understood that there was another reason hidden behind this play. Between Ye County, Xiangzhou, which is occupied by An Qingxu's rebel army, and Changshan County, Hengzhou, which is now facing a siege and hard fighting, there are three prefectures and counties: Guangping County, Julu County, and Zhaozhou. Originally, these three places all responded to the call of Yan Gaoqing, the Taishou of Changshan, and raised the banner of rebellion against An Lushan, but with the return of Shi Siming and Cai Xide's army, the Taishou County of some of the prefectures and counties fought unyieldingly and died, and some officials defected to Yan Gaoqing with the volunteers. As for Guangping, Julu, and Zhaojun, they all fell into the hands of Cai Xide.

It can be said that Changshan, which is now at the junction of the two official roads running through the north and south and the east and west, has become a place where the flame of the Hebei Daoyi flag gathers. After all, although Dezhou Plains County has never been lost, it is located in the east of Hebei Province, and its impact on the entire Hebei war situation is too small! Once Changshan breaks the city, it means that the Hebei rebels can be connected, so there is no need to storm Yejun here, the best way is to use the procrastination trick, and then repair the plank road in the open and Chen Cang in the dark.

Therefore, in the face of Hun Shizhi's complaints, Guo Ziyi just smiled and said: "It is the best policy to surrender the army without a fight." When he was in Shuofang, the marshal used such a trick a lot. ”

The hereditary governor of Gaolanzhou, of course, was also promoted step by step from Shuofang. Hearing Guo Ziyi say this, thinking that Du Shiyi had quietly laid out in Mobei at the beginning, and finally let the territory of the Tang Dynasty re-expand to the heyday of Zhenguan, he was suddenly dumbfounded, and said sullenly for a long time: "But the sons and daughters under the head are all holding back a belly of fire, and they can fight happily when they see it, if they really swallow water like this, wouldn't it be boring?" ”

"Who said the rebels would surrender so soon?" Guo Ziyi looked at the city from afar, and then said in a deep voice, "This first formation is taken care of by Hedong soldiers and horses, it seems that they are about to open!" ”

When Guo Ziyi noticed the rebels' movements, Cheng Qianli was also keenly aware of this. Although his injuries have not yet healed, he intends to personally avenge his shame when he grabbed the first battle this time. He raised the knife in his hand with his intact right hand, as if it was a signal, in the eyes of the soldiers and horses of Hedong, who had suffered heavy losses before, this meant the best opportunity for revenge! Therefore, when the gate of Anyang was opened for a while, and the rebels swarmed out from within, he suddenly let out a thunderstorm shout: "Kill!" ”

There are many brave generals in the Western Regions, Gao Xianzhi himself has an elegant face, but he is very desperate to fight, Li Siye is even more able to lead the horse army on the horse, and he can lead the Mo Dao army when he gets off the horse, and Cheng Qianli does not hesitate to take risks in any war, and people give him the nickname Cheng Daring, so he has always regarded it as a great shame for Gao Xianzhi to scold him for loving to sue like a woman, but it is a pity that he has not found a chance to prove it after leaving the Western Regions. But now, he had just suffered another humiliating defeat by being ambushed, so after the attack, he was like a tiger out of the army, regardless of his injuries, and as soon as he took the battle, he cut off the rebel in front of him with a knife!

The main general is so brave, and the horse army under his command is competing for the first place. The 3,000 horse army carefully selected by Cheng Qianli crashed into the enemy formation unreasonably, and directly suppressed the rebels who went out of the city to meet them, so that the follow-up army could not immediately go out of the city to meet them. In the face of such a chaotic situation, Ashina Chengqing, who was supervising the battle at the head of the city, was pale, and was about to order the generals around him to release arrows, but when he saw his own soldiers and horses intertwined with the enemy army, he suddenly realized that if he did not distinguish between the enemy and me, the already chaotic military spirit would be even more chaotic!

But he really couldn't help it before, if he let that guy who didn't know whether An Qingzong continued to shout, I'm afraid the city would be completely chaotic!

"Order, beat the drum, give General Cheng a strong voice!"

Seeing that Cheng Qianli's momentum was like a rainbow, Du Shiyi immediately shouted the order, and in an instant, the sound of war drums resounded throughout the battlefield, adding three points of battle spirit to the battlefield that was already a battlefield of flesh and blood.

Cheng Qianli, who had risen to kill, completely forgot that he was still a wounded, rushed left and right, and there was no enemy under the knife, and unconsciously, the surrounding soldiers were shocked to find that this master general from receiving the enemy to killing the enemy, every move seemed to be in line with the rhythm of the war drums, and the momentum of the whole person was always maintained at the peak. And it was only a quarter of an hour before the drums of war sounded, and their side was empty, and the remnants of the enemy on the other side had fled back from the city gates. And everyone was covered in blood, and it was completely impossible to tell whether it was the blood of the enemy or their own.

"Ouroboros chase and kill, rush into the city for me!"

Hearing Cheng Qianli say this, some of the others responded loudly, while others hesitated. But at this moment, the drumming suddenly stopped, followed by the sound of gold signaling the withdrawal of troops. A few tooth soldiers who breathed a sigh of relief hurriedly stepped forward to stop the coach who seemed to have not yet enjoyed himself, thinking that it would be better to say something, but he never thought that Cheng Qianli would wipe the blood-stained with the hem of his battle robe, and then returned the knife to the sheath, and then grinned lightly. Because of this fierce battle, the wounds on his left arm and body must have burst out, but it was really painful!

When Cheng Qianli was surrounded by many people and returned to the Chinese army, along the way, he saw that there was no longer the previous suspicion in the eyes around him, on the contrary, he had a little more respect and admiration, although he was already sore, and the wounds on his body were even more painful, but he felt that it was worth it. He may not have to go out in person in this battle, but because he expelled Wang Chengye in Hedong, he sat in the position of Jiedu envoy, except for the previous slight gain when he pursued the rebels from Huaizhou's eastward rank, and then it was the next big defeat in Anyang City, Ye County. If he can't come forward in person to save morale this time, how can this festival envoy be?

Therefore, when he arrived in front of Du Shiyi, he bowed on the horse and said with a high spirit: "I won the first battle, and I have come to report to the marshal!" ”

Du Shiyi smiled and nodded, and asked people to come forward with a brocade robe, replacing Cheng Qianli's tattered coat, and then said in a deep voice: "Pass the order, attack the city!" ”

Guo Ziyi, Fugu Huaien and Cheng Qianli had previously stationed troops in Chou Sigang in the southwest of Ye County, because Cheng Qianli was ambushed in the north of the Anhe River, so they had to retreat to Tangyin to rest. During this period, Guo Ziyi had already ordered people to collect all kinds of siege equipment, plus captured a lot of baggage left by the rebels when they fled north to Yejun, so when the siege order was given, they saw that the arrows inside and outside the city were raining, and the troops who were really engaged in the siege were very few, but they retreated as soon as they made contact.

This kind of momentum of thunder and rain will naturally not be ignored by Yan Zhuang and the others, who have all rushed to the city at this time. Li Guiren said with a calm face: "Du Shiyi, this is a trick to besiege the city and send reinforcements!" ”

"Then we'll hold on to the city. The horizontal and vertical Ye county walls are high and have a lot of grain, and they are not afraid of besieging the city. General An of Fuyang will not send troops lightly. ”

Tian Chengsi had failed to send troops to aid Yongqiu, and he found out that Li Guiren's army suddenly attacked Li Yi, the king of Wu, on Baima, so he immediately keenly led his troops to follow, so he did not become the target of the three-way army to brush up on military merits like other unlucky rebel generals, and retreated to Ye County with him. However, as soon as he spoke at this moment, he saw that the two prime ministers in front of him, Ashina, Chengqing, and Li Guiren, a general who was once highly regarded by An Lushan, all had dark faces, and he suddenly came to his senses.

It's good to stick to Anyang, but after being troubled by Du Shiyi, and being defeated by Cheng Qianli to attack the Ma army, the morale in the city is low, and the morale of the army is already unstable!
