readx; The county commander Wang Yancheng changed his official uniform, and hurried to the outside of the county with two officials, beside the official road about fifteen miles north of Anyang County, there is a Longquan Station, which is an important post station for the public to rest and stay, and behind the Longquan Station is a hill, which is covered with lush pine forests. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

At this time, the pine forest was full of Tang cavalry, there were five or six thousand people, almost the entire Longquanyi was surrounded, this is Guo Ziyi's army, Guo Ziyi's 100,000 troops were stationed in Weizhou Baicheng in the southwest of Xiangzhou, that is, today's Hui County, Henan, today he led five thousand cavalry to Anyang County to inspect the immigration situation.

Although Hebei Province is An Lushan's sphere of influence, it refers to An Lushan's army deterrent range, in fact, An Lushan does not really control the entire territory of Hebei Province, his army is still in Youzhou and the north of Youzhou, Fanyang Jiedu and Pinglu Jiedu's jurisdiction, if An Lushan's army begins to be stationed in Xiangzhou and its vicinity in the south, it means that he has really rebelled.

An Lushan has not formally rebelled in name, although he has established the new emperor, but most of Hebei prefectures and counties have not recognized it, which puts An Lushan in a very embarrassing situation, and more importantly, he is not completely ready, not to the extent of forcing Hebei Prefecture and County to recognize the new emperor by force, and not to the extent of sending troops to directly occupy the entire territory of Hebei, so he tried to maintain a kind of silence and restraint, and even sent troops to the Yellow River to support Xu Shuyi, he was under the pretext of army training.

At this time, An Lushan's army sent to support Xu Shuyi was in Weizhou, about 400 miles away from Anyang, and Guo Ziyi's army was in the border of Hedong Province west of Xiangzhou, and did not completely enter Hebei, to a certain extent, his army contained An Lushan's army, and today he led 5,000 cavalry to Anyang County quickly, on the one hand, he wanted to inspect the progress of the evacuation, on the other hand, he was also testing An Lushan's reaction.

At this time, Guo Ziyi was in the room of the post station, carefully checking the map of Hebei Province, judging from the information obtained so far, An Lushan has not reacted to the matter of Hebei immigration for the time being, An Lushan's army is still in Youzhou, and there is no incident of interfering with the immigration on Cai Xide's side of Weizhou.

Guo Ziyi was pacing slowly with his hands behind his back, his brows furrowed, he knew An Lushan very well, it was absolutely impossible for An Lushan to sit back and watch the great migration of Hebei, unless he really had no intention of rebellion, otherwise, Hebei Province would be his root base, and it was impossible for him to watch his foundation weakened.

Guo Ziyi can be sure that An Lushan will definitely interfere with Hebei immigrants, the key is where will he start? By what means? To what extent will it go, or directly rebel, this makes Guo Ziyi's heart full of doubts.

Guo Ziyi returned to the map, looked at Youzhou and pondered, this time he led a large army into Hebei, to a large extent, in the implementation of Li Qing'an's strategic deployment, Guo Ziyi also understood Li Qing'an's worries, An Lushan is not the Southern Tang Army, let alone a weak brigade like Li Mao and Li Lan, the strength of the Fan Yang army is very strong, even surpassing his Shuofang army, and only second only to the Anxi army, plus he recruited a large number of northern Hu people to join his army, which makes his combat effectiveness even stronger, although everyone says that An Lushan's 500,000 army is a vain, But Guo Ziyi doesn't think so, he has been at the border for many years, and he knows the details of the Hu people, the Hu people are all soldiers, and a slightly larger tribe has tens of thousands of troops, if An Lushan recruits effectively, and then promises heavy profits, it is not impossible to have an army of 500,000.

It is this point that makes Guo Ziyi admire Li Qingan very much, Guo Ziyi only then understands why Li Qingan did not immediately eliminate Xu Shuyi, he just wants to form a strategic confrontation situation, control the rhythm of An Lushan's rebellion, so that he can have time to evacuate the people from Hebei, although An Lushan may not pay attention to Li Qing'an's control, but this is indeed the only feasible way.

Otherwise, together with the Hu soldiers of An Lushan, Hebei will be wiped out, what the Hu soldiers want is the children of the Han people, what they want is the property of the Han people, An Lushan must also make a promise, Guo Ziyi sighed, you have to speed up the immigration!

At this time, there was a pro-soldier outside the door to report: "Marshal, the county order of Anyang County has arrived." ”

"Hmmm! Let him in! ”

Guo Ziyi put away his thoughts, and ordered someone to take the map away, and after a while, the county commander Wang Yancheng walked in quickly under the guidance of his own soldiers, and he stepped forward to give Guo Ziyi a salute and said: "Anyang County orders Wang Yancheng to see the old handsome!" ”

"Wang Xianling doesn't need to be polite, please take a seat!"

"Xie Laoshuai!"

Wang Yancheng sat down, a soldier served him tea, Wang Yancheng owed to thank him, Guo Ziyi picked up the teacup, slowly took a sip of tea, and then smiled unhurriedly: "I was afraid of disturbing the people, so I didn't enter the city, so I asked people to find you, and it was hard for Wang County to order." ”

Wang Yancheng hurriedly responded: "Where! Where! Guo Laoshuai loves the people of the county, and he is deeply moved by his humble duties, and if he needs anything, I will do my best to help. ”

"Huh! Does Wang Xianling think I'm here to fight the autumn wind? ”

Guo Ziyi laughed, Wang Yancheng blushed, he thought that Guo Ziyi was here to ask for food, and he had already calculated in his heart, and he would only give 3,000 stones at most, but he didn't expect to be punctured by Guo Ziyi all at once, and he muttered speechless.

"Wang County Order, I'm not here to fight any autumn breeze, I want to ask about the situation of immigrants."

Hearing that he was asking about the situation of immigration, Wang Yancheng perked up and hurriedly said: "Anyang County is the first day to handle immigration today, but more than 30,000 people have gathered outside the county government, and they are all in a hurry to immigrate, that is, there are 30,000 households, and the pressure on the county government is very great." ”

"Why?"

Guo Ziyi was a little surprised, in other places, it was many days later, and people slowly began to sign up for immigration, this Anyang County actually had 30,000 people that day, this is simply incredible, Guo Ziyi felt incredible, he is now a little worried that the immigration progress is too slow, but there is no way to speed up the immigration, and Anyang County is so popular, do they really have any way?

Guo Ziyi hurriedly asked, "Tell me quickly, what's going on?" ”

Wang Yancheng was wrong, he thought that Guo Ziyi was asking him why he only started to sign up today, he was weak for a while, and snorted: "I was sick a few days ago and missed the court announcement. ”

"I'm not asking you this, I'm asking you, why so many people sign up!" Guo Ziyi was a little unhappy and raised her tone.

Wang Yancheng let out a cold sweat, and hurriedly stood up and said: "It's also very strange to be humble, why is it so popular, I found out after asking someone, it turned out that the county was circulating gossip, saying that An Lushan was going to rebel, and the imperial court immigration was to evacuate the people of Hebei, everyone panicked, so there were a lot of people who came to sign up." ”

"I see!"

Guo Ziyi then understood, he nodded, this is not bad, it increases the sense of crisis, it is much stronger than a simple inducement, anyway, it is a rumor, as long as the official does not admit it, An Lushan has nothing to say.

"Alright! Thank you Wang County Order today, I still have to go to Ye County, so I will not disturb Wang County Order, please Wang County Order must speed up the immigration speed, and do not delay major events. ”

"The lowly job understands, the lowly job will go back, go through the registration overnight, and never miss something."

Wang Yancheng said goodbye and left, Guo Ziyi pondered for a moment, and then ordered: "Prepare to go, go to Ye County!" ”

Guo Ziyi's army quickly gathered, and in a moment, 5,000 cavalry headed north, and soon disappeared at the end of the official road.

．．．．．．．．

The tide of immigrants set off on the land of Hebei Province soon spread from south to north, affecting the whole of Hebei, and as the gossip of An Lushan's rebellion spread more and more widely, the people began to panic, and each county was crowded with farmers who wanted to sign up for immigration.

Driving ox carts, horse-drawn carts, and donkey carts, the carts carried their meager family property, and the old man and his young son sat on the carts, all the way through the pots and pots, and the mighty and mighty, passing through the Taihang Eight Mountains, and crossing the Taihang Mountains to the east of the river.

But I don't dare to immigrate how the tide is surging, but An Lushan has never made any movement, which makes everyone feel incredible, but only the high-level figures of Fan Yangjun know that An Lushan is not in Youzhou at this time, he is in the Xi tribe north of Pinglu.

Without An Lushan's order, no one dared to interfere in the situation in Hebei, even if Shi Siming or Gao Shang couldn't, the Fan Yang army was dispatched with more than 100 troops, and only An Lushan had the right to mobilize.

The Xi people are an ancient nomadic people in the northeast, before the Khitan was strong, it and the Khitan were both vassals of the Tang Dynasty, but after the Khitan gradually became stronger, the Xi people were finally annexed by the Khitan and became a branch of the Khitans.

The Xi tribe has always been under the jurisdiction of An Lushan's Pinglu Jiedu Mansion, but the Xi people have also rebelled several times, in the fourth year of Tianbao, the Tang clan Yifang Princess married the leader of the Xi people, King Huaixin, Rao Le Du Governor Li Yanzhong, but less than a year, the Xi people rebelled, and the Yifang princess was made a living sacrifice, and later the Xi people were defeated by An Lushan, and honestly returned to the Tang Dynasty.

At present, the leader of the Xi people is still Li Yanzhong, the king of Huaixin, with nearly 80,000 tribal soldiers, after An Lushan recruited troops among the Hu people, the surrendered Turkic, Hui, Khitan and other Hu tribes of nearly 200,000 troops, but Li Yanzhong was not very willing to help An Lushan, and only reluctantly sent 5,000 cavalry to An Lushan, only a little symbolic meaning.

Where is An Lushan willing to let go of this 80,000-strong army, he sent people to negotiate with Li Yanpet several times, promising heavy benefits, but Li Yanzhong neither agreed, nor refused, the attitude was very ambiguous, An Lushan was helpless, at this time, the situation in Henan Province was in a state of confrontation, An Lushan personally went to Raolezhou, and Li Yanzhong negotiated, this is also the last army he recruited, if the 80,000 Xi army is in hand, then his army will reach 450,000 people, enough to participate in the struggle for hegemony.

This trip to Rao Le, An Lushan is bound to win.
