(Thanks to the tips of the book friends along the mountain arc)——

Under the guidance of the sergeant of the special operations detachment, Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi's troops marched into Luoyang City from Hui'anmen and Anximen, which had been occupied by our troops. When Yang Xi greeted him, Guo Ziyi had already led a group of men and horses to rush to the city, and was about to come over to meet him.

Yang Xi didn't know Guo Ziyi, but Guo Xi beside Guo Ziyi recognized him from afar and told Guo Ziyi immediately.

Guo Ziyi immediately rushed out of the queue with a horse, stopped his mount a few steps in front of Yang Xi, and saluted with his fists: "The last general, Guo Ziyi, has seen Marshal Yang. ”

Because in the edict issued by the imperial court, Yang Xi's position as deputy marshal was higher than Guo Ziyi's, so Guo Ziyi abided by etiquette and took the first step to salute Yang Xi.

Yang Xi hurriedly returned the salute and said very humbly: "Marshal Guo is like this, he has been tormented." After hearing the prestige of Marshal Guo for a long time, the rebels who fought in the north fled in fear, and they had long wanted to get acquainted, and it was very fortunate to be able to see them in Luoyang City today. ”

Guo Ziyi is tall, dignified, and has a majesty that is not angry, and when he saw him for the first time, Yang Xi immediately had a good impression of him.

The star looked the same as he expected. This is Guo Xin's father, he doesn't dare to have any rudeness.

"Marshal Yang is polite!" Guo Ziyi is not a person who likes red tape, and he didn't be polite anymore, and directly inquired about Yang Xi's battle situation, "Marshal Yang, after the last general received the marshal's order, he ordered his men and horses to rush forward quickly, but I didn't expect that Marshal Yang had already broken through Luoyang City, which is really amazing!" It seems that our few men and horses can't make big achievements anymore, haha! It's just that Marshal Yang is also asked to tell the last general the latest battle situation now, which places have not yet been captured, and the last general will immediately lead the army to attack, and the soldiers under the command of the last general are still waiting to make military achievements in Luoyang!"

At this time. In the distance, there was a chaotic sound of horses' hooves, and a team of men and horses rushed to listen to the sergeant's report, but it was another tiger general, Li Guangbi, who came over. Yang Xi also hurriedly greeted him and took the initiative to say hello. In the face of these two generals who were famous in the original history, Yang Xi did not dare to have any arrogance. Li Guangbi has the face of a Hu man, he is a Hu man who belongs to him, he is tall and stout.

When he knew that it was Yang Xi who was talking to Guo Ziyi, he also hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Guo Xi and Guo Ziyi's other sons, who originally wanted to say a few polite words to Yang Xi, could only step back for the time being.

After a simple courtesy greeting. Yang Xi also immediately turned the topic back to the military arrangement, and said to Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi: "Marshal Guo, General Li, and the last general feel that in the case that most of Luoyang City is occupied by our army, as long as Luoyang Palace and Shangyang Palace are captured, and An Lushan is captured or killed, the war will be over, and the rebels south of Luoshui will definitely surrender without a fight!"

At this time, in Luoyang City, there were still shouts of killing. The battle continues. However, the fighting mainly took place near Luoshui, north of the city and northeast of the city, the fighting has basically subsided, and most of the places are controlled by the Tang army.

Yang Xi believes. With more than 100,000 horses of their own, plus about 100,000 men and horses of Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi, even if the rebels toss again, they will be powerless. The key now is to attack Luoyang Palace and Shangyang Palace where An Lushan lives. This is the last stronghold of the rebels, as long as these two palaces are captured, then Luoyang City can be said to be completely captured.

One of Guo Ziyi's and Li Guangbi's men and horses had already bypassed from the city to attack the city gates south of Luoshui. It's just that it will take a lot of time for them to bypass Luoyang and attack closely. However, these men and horses do not need to take the initiative to attack, they just need to besiege but not attack, and prevent the rebels on the gates guarding the south of Luoshui from escaping.

"The last general agrees with Marshal Yang's statement, our army should concentrate its forces and attack the palace in Luoyang!" Guo Ziyi immediately agreed with Yang Xi's suggestion.

Li Guangbi also immediately agreed: "The last general also agrees with Marshal Yang's statement, we only need to concentrate our forces to capture Luoyang Palace and Shangyang Palace, and the rebels can be completely wiped out!"

However, although Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi said this, their hearts were still full of regrets. Originally, I thought that attacking Luoyang was a very difficult battle, and the sacrifice must be very large, and the rebels of An Lushan would defend and counterattack with all their might, but they didn't expect that when they desperately led the army to arrive, they found that Luoyang City had been breached, and they didn't need to attack the city again, just drive into the city.

They are proud of their old qualifications, they have been in the army for so many years, and their abilities should be better than Yang Xi, and they want to show themselves when attacking Luoyang to suppress Yang Xi's momentum. After all, the troops under their command are all warlike border troops, and their combat effectiveness is far better than that of Yang Xi's men, and it is precisely because of their self-confidence that they very much want to play well when attacking Luoyang, so that Yang Xi does not dare to despise them. But they didn't expect that they didn't catch the siege battle, and led the army to rush to Luoyang City, Yang Xi's men and horses were already fighting in the city, and many city gates had been opened, so they only needed to lead the army to rush into the city. Of course, it hit them hard.

Although they already knew that this was the result of An Qingxu taking the initiative to contact Yang Xi and opening the city gate to surrender to the Tang Dynasty, Yang Xi got the credit for attacking Luoyang City first, which made them, who were originally a little contemptuous of Yang Xi, not very hung on their faces, so they agreed with what Yang Xi said, as long as Luoyang Palace and Shangyang Palace were captured, the rebellion would be completely quelled, and they immediately asked Yang Xi to let them attack these two palaces, and guaranteed that they would be able to capture them soon. Although Yang Xi couldn't completely guess Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi's thoughts, he probably understood what they meant, and immediately agreed to let Guo and Li attack the palace.

"Marshal Guo, General Li, His Royal Highness King Yan will arrive with more mighty generals' cannons later, and when a large number of mighty generals' cannons arrive, we can immediately attack Luoyang Palace and Shangyang Palace!" Yang Xi is a pragmatist, and he naturally wants to use good things. He is not like those who play heroism, who put a powerful weapon and do not use it, but fight the enemy with a bayonet.

Because most of the men and horses under his command were about to rush to Luoyang, most of the baggage was thrown to Li Jue and Tian Liangqiu, who led the rear army, and now there were less than 50 "mighty general cannons" that arrived in Luoyang City. These artillery pieces are basically disposable, that is to say, they can only be fired fifty or sixty times at most, and Yang Xi, who knows how much lethality there is in a bombardment, knows that these dozens of explosive packs will not receive a very great effect. Therefore, Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi were also asked to wait for the remnants of the captured enemies in the city to concentrate on attacking Luoyang Palace and Shangyang Palace, and strive to capture these two palaces on the same day and completely quell the rebellion.

Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi finally agreed with what Yang Xi said.

Just when the three of them agreed on the follow-up arrangements and ordered their men and horses to continue to clear the remnants of the enemy, a sergeant came to report that Li Jue, the king of Yan, had arrived at Defumen with a rear army.

"Marshal Guo, General Li, you go with the last general to greet His Royal Highness King Yan!" (To be continued......)
