Yang Ping'an never thought that he had worked hard to defend Yangzhou with injuries and almost died in battle, but Li Guangbi borrowed a knife to kill people and make an example of monkeys.

After Du Bin died in battle, after the chaos of the Zhou army outside the city was pacified, he once again launched a fierce attack on Yangzhou City, and there was a great posture that Yangzhou would not be returned.

Fortunately, Yang Ping'an shocked the city with the lives of hundreds of people that night, so that the internal troubles in Yangzhou were temporarily eliminated and they could unanimously resist foreign enemies.

And Yang Ping'an and Xu Yuan, the two most noble people in Yangzhou City, did not hesitate to take the lead in the city, bravely killed the enemy at the head of the city, and were lightly injured and covered in blood, and finally aroused the blood of the people in the city, under the organization of Yang Guozhong and Li Linfu, they climbed to the head of the city one after another, and the defenders together to resist the siege of the Zhou army.

Although most of these people are ordinary people, they have no strength, but there are many of them, Yangzhou is a big city with a large population, and after paying the price of blood and fire, with the passing of one surname after another, the remaining people gradually grew up.

But Rao is so, the ferocity of the Zhou army also exceeded the expectations of the soldiers and civilians in the city, and the two sides launched a brutal fight, and many people jumped from the city holding each other, exchanging their own lives for the enemy's lives.

The Zhou army attacked every day, and they couldn't bear it, but the Tang army in the city was even worse, and they almost didn't have much time to rest, and in the end the Zhou army once occupied the city, and the sealed city gate was also knocked out of the big mouth, and the Zhou army under the city came like a tide, not to mention the soldiers who were fighting, that is, Yang Ping'an was desperate at that time.

Fortunately, the reinforcements came, more than 30,000 reinforcements attacked from the rear of the Zhou army, but the one who took the lead was not Xue Yufeng but Shi Siming, Shi Siming led the headquarters of 10,000 soldiers and horses to charge in front of the Zhou army, and Xue Yufeng led more than 20,000 Xuzhou veterans and 5,000 Xue family troops followed.

Yangzhou City, at the most critical juncture, was finally held.

Shi Siming killed three generals of the Zhou army in a row, the morale of the Tang army was greatly boosted, and Xue Yufeng was like a phoenix spreading its wings and ordering the five thousand Xue family troops to cut through the Zhou army and kill directly under the city, shouting Yang Ping'an's name.

When the reinforcements arrived, the morale of the desperate defenders was immediately bursting, and the fatigue caused by the fighting seemed to be swept away, and everyone burst out into the strongest state, driving all the stunned Zhou troops from the city.

When the Zhou army retreated like a tide, and the army fled towards the four fields, the soldiers and civilians at the head of the city collapsed to the ground, and everyone seemed to be hollowed out.

Yang Ping'an and Xu Yuan supported each other and stood at the head of the city, watching Shi Siming lead the army to chase and kill the fleeing Zhou army, and showed a happy smile.

An Lushan stood beside Yang Ping'an with a mace, his huge body was covered with bright red, and his forehead was even cut with a knife an inch-long wound, and the blood flowed, but he won a lot of prestige in the city.

In the battle of Yangzhou, the Tang army killed 5,000 enemies and captured 3,000, and the Zhou army was defeated and killed, which attracted the attention of Tang and Zhou.

When the news reached Chuzhou, Guo Ziyi showed a look of relief, but there was unnoticed worry in her eyes.

Li Guangbi, who had just killed Qi Kun with lightning speed and strengthened his control over the Middle Route Army, climbed high alone to look at Yangzhou, and the battle of Yangzhou was not as serious as he said, saying that 30,000 soldiers and horses were killed was just an excuse to convict Qi Kun.

"The Mandate of Heaven is really extraordinary, even if what he has shown has always been the specialty of Qiyin skills, but when it comes to the moment, he can't be underestimated in military terms, in the end, it is the Mandate of Heaven, but I don't know, how many means he still hasn't shown, how can I try out his background."

After Wu Cong learned of this, his expression was complicated, and he hurriedly retreated back to the palace, sat alone in the back garden, stroked a strangely shaped vest, and showed longing on his face, gradually, killing intent gradually appeared on her face, and her face became resolute.

After Yang Rui learned of this, he was stunned at first, seeing the joy of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs, listening to the flattery of the ministers to himself, even the always upright old ministers opened their mouths to express their admiration, Yang Rui smiled, but there was a bitterness in his smile.

Admiration is because he uses people to know people.

Since he returned to the palace from Yanshi, he first accepted the people's daughter Su Min as a concubine, and then the queen mother accepted a wild girl as a princess, and then the queen mother was the matchmaker, and the emperor gave marriage and chose a horse for the princess, and in the end he personally ordered the horse to serve as the supervisor of Yangzhou.

Many ministers find it difficult to understand these things, especially the first and last ones, but because of his majesty, there is no gossip and it reaches his ears directly.

However, in the first battle of Yangzhou, the war report was written clearly, Yangzhou had 40,000 or 50,000 soldiers and horses to stop, and the 30,000 Zhou troops were defending the city in the face of the attack, but Shi Siming, the Yangzhou garrison general promoted by Xiao Taishi, was greedy for merit, and the soldiers were trapped in Huang Nize, and they were extremely mediocre, and they could not see through the Zhou army's suspicious tactics, and were besieged by 2,000 soldiers and horses, and Yangzhou was almost lost.

Since then, Yangzhou has been able to hold on, relying on Yang Ping'an's strategy, step by step, one by one, completely in accordance with Yang Ping'an's plan.

In particular, Yang Ping'an and Xu Yuan took the lead, causing the soldiers and civilians in the city to fight bloodily at the head of the city, which exceeded many people's expectations.

At this time, someone turned Yang Ping'an's past out one by one, thinking of what to do in Yanshi to defeat Yanshi Hou and expose Yang Shuo, the king of Ning, who was plotting against him; made suggestions for Xue Jiajun in Shandong, and cooperated with Guo Ziyi to pacify Shandong; There are even rumors that Yang Shuo's death is also related to him.

In the past, one scene after another was placed in front of him, and the Chinese military forces praised him as the pillar of the country, but more praise was given to Yang Rui, because Yang Ping'an was able to shine in the Tang because of Yang Rui's insight into gold.

As the saying goes, Maxima often exists, but Bole does not often have.

The Battle of Yangzhou, for the war between Zhou and Tang, is not too big in terms of scale or tragedy, but it is of great significance to the Tang Dynasty.

First of all, Yangzhou does not lose the stability of Chuzhou; Secondly, after the start of the war between the Zhou and Tang dynasties, the Tang Dynasty had not yet achieved such a big victory, which played an extremely important role in inspiring the front-line soldiers.

Therefore the reward is indispensable.

Yang Ping'an, Xu Yuan, Xue Yufeng, An Lushan, Li Linfu, Yang Guozhong, as well as the generals and soldiers in the army, as well as those people who spontaneously helped out, everyone had rewards, but Shi Siming did not have them.

The battle of Yangzhou didn't have to be so tragic, it was all because of the arrogant and greedy Shi Siming, many bigwigs in the army and generals who were at odds with Xiao Taishi played one after another, and Shi Siming should be killed to comfort the soldiers who died in the battle.

Xiao Taishi naturally refused, Shi Siming was a capable general, and it was also a nail that he easily inserted in the military, and he also planned to wait for Guo Ziyi to get old, and then hold Shi Siming to Guo Ziyi's position.

As soon as he opened his mouth, the ministers who were attached to him also spoke, all of them saw that Shi Siming's past achievements were not small, and this battle was only a temporary miss, although he was responsible, but not to death, he should be ordered to make up for his responsibilities and continue to guard Yangzhou.

For this reason, the DPRK and China quarreled non-stop, and finally Yang Rui proposed that now it is the time to employ people, Shi Siming is one of the border generals, so that he will be guilty of meritorious service, if there is another accident in Yangzhou, he will not be spared.

After calming down the dispute between the DPRK and China, Yang Rui's mood gradually became heavy, especially when he heard the ministers constantly praising himself.

After the dispersal of the court, he did not immediately deal with the government affairs, but came to the Guifei Palace to find Su Min, in the Guifei Palace, Su Jia was also there, chatting with Su Min.

"Jiajia, you go back first, I have something to talk about with your sister, and besides, you can bring Fu'er down too." Entering the palace, Yang Rui glanced at it and said lightly.

Su Jia was simple-minded, and only thought that Yang Rui wanted to make love with his sister, so he immediately showed strange eyes, smiled, and pulled Xiao Fu'er away.

Fu'er timidly saluted Yang Rui, whispered "Father", and then followed Su Jia, Yang Rui never looked at him from beginning to end.

Su Min turned sideways, Yang Rui sat directly opposite her, poured a glass of wine and drank it all, and then said: "You know everything, that Yang Ping'an is really powerful." ”

"What does it matter to me whether he is good or not." Su Min's voice was not emotional.

"What do you have to do with it, hehe, if it weren't for your mother and son, Su Jia, and Zhenniang, I'm afraid that he would stay in the south, and now he is also a general who offends my Tang Dynasty."

"I don't understand." Su Min's voice was cold.

"If you don't understand, don't pretend anymore, you're far behind in front of me, I know, when you learned that he married Jiajia, you were suspicious, some time ago you asked Jiajia to bring Zhenniang into the palace many times, and asked in detail about what happened after you and Yang Ping'an separated, you already understood."

"You are despicable." Su Min glared at Yang Rui angrily, her breath was short, and the fate between her and Yang Ping'an was completely exhausted because of Yang Rui.

Don't say anything about it, just say that she is now a concubine, Yang Ping'an is a concubine and Su Jia are married, and there is no possibility between her and Yang Ping'an.

Tears swirled in her eyes, never falling, she didn't want Yang Rui to see the joke, if it wasn't for the fact that Fu'er had already given birth, if it wasn't for Fu'er being her and Yang Ping'an's flesh and blood, she wanted to kill Yang Rui and then commit suicide.

Yang Rui seemed to see her thoughts, and nodded with satisfaction: "Sure enough, I am not mistaken, you have a deep friendship with Yang Ping'an, and Yang Ping'an is the same for you, good, good, good, hahaha." ”

After finally spitting out the three "good" words, he laughed and left, perceiving Su Min's feelings for Yang Ping'an, he was a little relieved, Yang Ping'an was like a big stone pressing on his heart, the more he achieved a lot of results, the more he did things that were beneficial to Datang, the greater the pressure on his heart.

Destiny, although he doesn't care about what he says easily, who really dares to despise it, it's the Destiny of Heaven.

Fortunately, the Destiny of Heaven in this life has a weakness, and it is still a big weakness, and this weakness happens to be in his hands.

"Xiao Gao, immediately dispatch people from Long Wei to Yangzhou......"
