－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

Yang Xi, who was standing on the tower of the city gate and watching, saw that a sky-high fire was burning about five or six miles away from Tongguan City, and his hanging heart was also slightly relaxed, he knew that the rebels must have been sniped. What Li Fu led was indeed Jīng's sharp centaurs, and he succeeded in several ambushes in a row.

Originally, Yang Xi wanted to personally lead his men out of the city to set up an ambush, he felt that with his knowledge and familiarity with special operations, he would definitely be able to set up an ambush very well, and even if he approached, he would not let the rebels find anything unusual, and his specialty was this. But doing so is very inconsistent with his identity, and besides, these sergeants are not those specially trained soldiers that he personally brought out in later generations, so he cannot fully understand his intentions.

After much thought, he finally let Li Ford carry out this task.

Rushing all the way from Chang'an to Tongguan, few of the 3,000 sergeants led by Li Fu and Liu Guangting fell behind or were physically exhausted, and the queue could remain basically neat after running continuously. From this point of view, Yang Xi can feel that this is an army whose combat effectiveness can be described as "jīng rui", with good military literacy, and it will definitely perform well when fighting, so he will hand over the task of setting up an ambush to confuse the enemy to the men and horses under Li Fu's command to complete.

Yang Xi was finally not disappointed, and Li Fu brought him a surprise.

It was almost noon, the sun was scorching, it was very hot, and the raging fire in the valley in the distance made people feel even hotter! However, although the fire in the distance gives people a feeling of heat, it makes people feel comfortable!

The sergeants guarding the city were already in the fourth batch, and many of them were inexplicably terrified when they saw the fire in the distance, because yesterday they were attacked by the rebel fire, which led to a tragedy of heavy casualties. Especially those leading generals, even Ge Shuhan, they will never forget the fire in the pass yesterday for the rest of their lives.

However, today's fire has brought them a feeling of raising their eyebrows.

The constant screams of men and horses in the fire prove that many rebel sergeants are in flames!

"One report and one report", today's fire is a kind of revenge for yesterday's fire, although this revenge is not proportional, but at least it has also caused a certain degree of blow to the other side, and the success of the ambush makes the generals who are watching from the city have an indescribable pleasure.

Yang Xi, who had not suffered yesterday's fiasco, did not have the fear of fire as other generals, and the constant screams gave him a sense of accomplishment, a sense of accomplishment born from killing the enemy. Although he knew that this was cruel, those sergeants who were burned to death and burned were also the army of the Tang Dynasty half a year ago, but now those are the enemies of the Tang Dynasty, unless they surrender, they can only meet them with death.

There can be no compassion on the battlefield, otherwise you may die yourself, and you will ruin a good country.

It is precisely because he knows the cruelty of war that Yang Xi can't bear to hear the screams of the enemy, and even he has to deliver another fatal blow. He was happy to see all the scenes that were favorable to him, and he watched intently at the battle between the two teams of people on the side of the fire, and it could also be said that it was the first time he had seen the fighting scene in the era of cold weapons. It's a bit far away, but it's still faintly visible.

Li Fu has already led his troops to kill the hundreds of rebel soldiers who were blocked by the fire in the direction of Tongguan at this end of the canyon!

Judging from the vaguely visible situation, the side has won an overwhelming victory.

The rebel army, which had been cut off by fire, was being killed by the men and horses led by Li Fu and his lieutenant Wang Yaguang, and the situation of the battle was one-sided.

Because the fire has blocked the way of the rebels, there is no need to hide any action, whether it is the Hantong Pass City or the Sui Tong Pass City where Yang Xi is standing, the military drums are beating desperately, cheering for the soldiers on their side.

Although it was scorching and exposed, the naked drum sergeant still beat very vigorously, and the earth-shattering drum sound spread more than ten miles away, mixed with the sound of fighting and shouting, constantly echoing among the canyons and mountain peaks, and was further amplified!

At this time, the morale of Li Fu and the soldiers under his command had almost reached its peak. Two ambushes in a row were successful, and it was possible to concentrate on encircling and suppressing a part of the rebels that had been cut off by the fire, regardless of the rebels' follow-up. With high morale, they were in the slightly wider valley outside the canyon to carry out an annihilation operation against the rebel outpost that had been cut off by the fire.

The morale of the two pairs of centaurs cannot be compared at all, and it can already be judged how the outcome will be.

Not to mention morale, in terms of numbers, it is also the men and horses led by Li Fu and Wang Yaguang who have the advantage, the rebel outpost is only more than 800 horses, and the Tang army that outflanked the past has about 1,500 horses in both directions, almost twice as many as the other side, not to mention that the rebels who were cut off by the fire have no fighting spirit, and only rushed to kill for a while, and after a sergeant was killed, the rest of the rebels dismounted and surrendered.

The rebel soldiers and horses were also the original Tang army, but they just rebelled with An Lushan.

Falling behind, surrender is king. Except for more than 100 who were killed or wounded, the rest of the rebel sergeants were taken prisoner.

At this time, Yang Xi, who had observed the general progress of the war, had already sent people to fly, asking Li Fu and Wang Yaguang to lead the army to withdraw into Hantong Pass, and work with Pang Zhong to defend Hantong Pass!

Pang Zhong witnessed Li Fude lead his army to fight two beautiful ambushes in just a few hours, and reaped brilliant results at a very small cost, and he couldn't help but admire. When the Li Fu Department was holding the prisoners and retreating majestically, he opened the east gate of the gate of the city one step earlier, connected the Li Fu Department into the city, and expressed his admiration with respectful courtesy.

Pang Zhong was already regretting that when Yang Xi assigned the task, he did not ask for orders to lead the army to set up an ambush, otherwise the military exploits worn on Li Fude would be his. Lingbao lost the first battle, the main responsibility is Ge Shuhan's, but their subordinate generals are also responsible, if they win a battle immediately, not only can they play a role in atonement, but their own hearts will be better, so they will not be so depressed.

However, the successive victories of Li Fu's troops were still very morale-boosting, and Pang Zhong's troops, which had just suffered a defeat yesterday, also had a great shock to their morale, and most of the depressed spirit on the faces of the soldiers was eliminated, and the fighting spirit that had been completely lost was also restored a lot.

If Li Fu's ministry had not been supported just now, Pang Zhong would probably have led the army to rescue quickly.

After Li Fu's troops entered the city, they also immediately reported the battle to Yang Xi and Ge Shuhan, who were guarding the Sui Tong Pass.

After receiving the specific battle report, Yang Xi immediately ordered to transmit the battle report to Chang'an at the fastest speed of 600 miles.

This kind of battle report made Li Longji feel at ease more than any "peace fire" or the like.
