"It's really a big dog, it's a big dog!"

An Lushan's roar can be heard even from more than a dozen tents. Yan Zhuang shrunk his neck, not knowing whether to be glad that he was not by An Lushan's side at that time, or to be bitter that he was going to see him.

This expedition requisitioned 100,000 people, although An Lushan wanted to use them to consume Ye Chang's strength, but he couldn't let them die before they arrived at the battlefield. So they still gave out their tents, but in the cold wind of the first month, their tents really couldn't withstand anything, so they were all shivering.

They looked at Yan Zhuang's eyes, and they were also full of hatred, and although they tried hard to hide this hatred, Yan Zhuang could always detect it inadvertently.

"These rabble, if they really fight, nine times out of ten, they will turn against each other, this battle ...... Maybe it's going to be the Battle of Makino. ”

Yan Zhuang was worried, but he didn't dare to say these words to An Lushan. In today's situation, Mo said that if he said something disobedient to him in front of An Lushan, it would be unsafe to pat him on the back. It is light to say that moodiness is light, and Yan Zhuang even feels that the lord he works for is probably a little crazy.

But it's just crazy...... It must also be sustained......

"Yan Junshi, Yan Shilang, the king is calling you, you should go quickly!"

"Good, good ......"

Yan Zhuang took a few steps, but he was even more worried in his heart. In the past, he wished that An Lushan valued him, but now, he hoped that he would be ignored by An Lushan.

As he expected, he was whipped by the enraged An Lushan before he escaped. After An Lushan beat him, he seemed to have a breath, so he went back to the camp tent to rest, Yan Zhuang limped and was about to leave, but saw Li Zhu'er also limping over.

The two looked at each other and couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Pig, what the hell is this...... What's going on? The situation of the king is really not right recently......"

In the past, Yan Zhuang would never talk to Li Zhu'er like this, but now he has to do so. Li Zhu'er, as An Lushan's most trusted attendant, is probably the person who knows the changes in An Lushan the most.

"There's something wrong with the king's body." Li Zhu'er looked left and right, and said in a low voice: "The king has a fat body, and it has been difficult to even ride a horse in the past two years, let alone lead the troops to fight." Last time in Ye Chang's house, he was blown down by the flour demon technique, in addition to his facial injury, his body was also quite unwell, and he had a sore on his back......"

"What?" Yan Zhuang was taken aback when he heard this: "Why have you never heard the king mention it?" ”

"The king is not allowed to mention it, he has cut so many imperial doctors, not just for Da Langjun...... And, there's one more thing ......"

Li Zhu'er was a little stumbling, Yan Zhuang was anxious, and said sharply: "It's all like this, I don't know if you and I have lives tomorrow, what are you still hiding?" Say, say it and prescribe the right medicine, maybe there is room for redemption, if you don't say it, then we won't wait for Ye Chang to come, and our heads will be gone! ”

Li Zhu'er gritted his teeth and made up his mind: "The king is struggling to see things now, probably because of his injury, he can't see clearly, others don't know about this matter, only the villain knows." ”

Yan Zhuang's heart jumped: No wonder!

The pain of losing a child, the distress of sores, the worry of blindness...... With so many things mixed together, it's no wonder that An Lushan became grumpy and capricious.

And these symptoms also made Yan Zhuang even more worried: if the news came out, the heart of the general, who was already faintly falling apart, was afraid that it would immediately dissipate.

Cui Qianyou was defeated and did not return, and Zhang Zhongzhi went and did not return - the occurrence of these two incidents was like opening the floodgates and releasing water, which made the hearts of An Lushan's subordinates agitated, and An Lushan's increasingly bad temper added fuel to the fire of this commotion. In the past few days, An Lushan has killed several generals under the pretext of an excuse, and seeing that Ye Chang's army is coming, a decisive battle will take place between the two sides within these three days, and a certain restlessness of An Lushan's subordinates has become more obvious.

Even Yan Zhuang himself saw with his own eyes that some officials loyal to Li Longji went in and out of the camp tents of An Lushan's generals, and they didn't know what these people were doing. He had also considered reporting and exposing these generals, but when he thought of An Lushan's current temper, he was afraid that he would immediately order to kill, and if he killed like this, without waiting for Ye Chang to fight, An Lushan's subordinate generals were only afraid that they would lose half of them.

What's more, in Yan Zhuang's own tent, there is not no one to tempt.

At the beginning, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao fought a decisive battle in Guandu, and many subordinates on both sides exchanged letters, which was normal...... Yan Zhuang could only comfort himself like this.

If there is a way out, Yan Zhuang also wants to make another plan, but he knows very well that as the mastermind of An Lushan, he is one of the culprits, and he is a literati, Li Longji and Ye Chang may be able to tolerate those rude and barbaric generals, and they will definitely not tolerate a conspirator like him.

"You are good to take care of the king, what has changed, tell me quickly." After pondering for a while, Yan Zhuang couldn't think of a better way, so he could only say: "Within three days, we will have a decisive battle with Ye Chang, and everything will wait for this battle to be talked about later!" ”

"In this case, Mr. Yan, you also tell the truth to the villain, can we win?"

Li Zhu'er's words made Yan Zhuang speechless, at this moment, except for An Lushan, no one would think that they could win.

"If he can't win, Mr. Yan has to make other plans as soon as possible......"

Yan Zhuang bowed his head and thought hard, what else could he do, what other strategies could he have to change the current situation?

According to his intentions, he was to return to Chang'an, or even Luoyang, control the Tongguan Heavenly Danger, and confront Ye Chang. Even if this confrontation is still unfavorable to An Lushan in the long run, it is better than the current dangerous situation.

If you can confront Ye Chang from east to west, take the opportunity to annex Liaodong, and control Ye Chang's economic lifeline, then there may still be a chance to turn defeat into victory.

But An Lushan would not agree, he came out of Chang'an, originally to fight with Ye Chang, before he even considered that Ge Shuhan's main force all joined Ye Chang's subordinates, so he mobilized an army of more than 100,000 people, but he never thought that Ye Chang made something out of nothing, and made more than 100,000 troops, and Ge Shuhan learned that the forward Pei Mian he sent turned out to be a dark chess piece planted by Li Heng, and it was even more starry night, according to the scout, he had arrived in Yongxian County two days ago and asked Li Longji to plead guilty, Li Longji did not reprimand too much, Just let him go to Ye Chang's army to serve.

This means that Ye Chang's strength has increased again.

Since he can't be defeated, the only way is to retreat first, but with An Lushan's current temper, he wants to persuade him to retreat immediately, but I'm afraid it won't be easy.

"The king wants to use Tian Chenghei as the striker and fight with Ye Chang."

"What?" Yan Zhuang was stunned, this news was unknown to him, and An Lushan just whipped him, but he was tight-lipped about how to deal with it, what does this mean? It shows that An Lushan's trust in him is rapidly decreasing!

"With the lessons of Cui Qianyou and Zhang Zhongzhi, the king still dares to use Tian Chenghei?"

"Tian Chenghe's whole family is in the hands of the king." Li Zhu'er said with some schadenfreude: "Unless Tian Chenghei doesn't want his family's life, he can only be obedient...... The king has secretly sent someone back to order everyone's family members to be fetched, Mr. Yan, your family is no exception! ”

Yan Zhuang felt that his breathing seemed to stop, his face turned pale, and he wanted to scold, but he didn't dare to scold.

An Lushan's move was also a last resort, but he used this kind of strategy without consulting Yan Zhuang at all, which clearly means that he has no trust in Yan Zhuang's wisdom. With An Lushan's current temper, as long as Yan Zhuang loses his trust, then ......

So something must be done to restore the trust!

Yan Zhuang was reluctant to give up, and after talking to Li Zhu'er, he involuntarily walked out of the camp. Under the escort of several personal soldiers, he was about to climb high and overlook, but saw several horses galloping in the direction of Chang'an.

He stopped and waited for the knights to arrive and asked, "Who are you, and why are you here?" ”

"It turned out to be Yan Shilang, who was ordered by Dr. Ji to send a letter from Chang'an." The visitor recognized him and hurriedly dismounted and saluted.

Yan Zhuang heard "Doctor Ji", his heart suddenly moved, and he stretched out his hand and said: "Give me the letter, and I will present it to the king for you." ”

The messenger did not doubt it, and after believing it, he solemnly told him to wait before the camp and return to the camp himself. But he didn't go to An Lushan first, but returned to his tent, and saw that there was no fire paint seal, so he opened the letter directly.

Ji Wen's letter was mainly about official business, some personnel arrangements in Chang'an City, the transportation of troops and food in various places, and the military situation in other places, especially the military transfer in Luoyang. But Yan Zhuang still found what he was looking for here!

"Sure enough, as expected......"

Seeing that content, Yan Zhuang looked up to the sky and laughed three times, his spirits lifted, and then he walked quickly to see An Lushan.

An Lushan listened solemnly and asked to see, originally he didn't want to see him, but he thought that he had just whipped the other party, and the other party came again at this time, there must be something important, so he still summoned him in. This can be regarded as the last chance that An Lushan gave Yan Zhuang, if Yan Zhuang can't impress him, he will be even more cold in the future.

"King, there's something going on in Chang'an!" Yan Zhuang's words made An Lushan jump.

"Chang'an? Isn't Gwen's there, and so is Kyung'en, and I've left 20,000 loyal troops behind, what can happen! ”

"What the king is worried about......" Yan Zhuang presented the letter to him.

An Lushan himself was illiterate, threw the letter on Yan Zhuang's face again, and roared: "You read, read!" ”

Yan Zhuang believed it again, and saw that An Lushan still looked uncertain, so he repeated one of the paragraphs: "King, Ji Gong repeatedly said that the emperor invited the generals to a banquet for days and days, and rewarded gold and silver, mansions, palaces, and brocade silks!" ”

"You mean?"

"The king is fighting the world for him in the front, and he is digging the corner of the king in the rear!" Yan solemnly said: "Moreover, Ji Gong has always been cautious and wise, he has repeatedly mentioned this matter, only to prove one point, he also sensed that something is wrong!" ”

If there is anyone else who can make An Lushan trust at this moment, I am afraid it is Ji Wen. In fact, if Ji Wen is by An Lushan's side, I am afraid that there will be no such trust, as the so-called distant fragrance and near smell, far away, but let An Lushan think of his good.

Therefore, Yan Zhuang used Jiwen as a pretense to make An Lushan really pay attention to this matter: "The people I left behind are loyal generals......"

"Cui Qianyou and Zhang Zhongzhi, aren't they loyal to the king, but now they don't have their own plans?" Yan Zhuang said: "Besides, serving the king is to be prosperous and rich, but how can the glory and wealth that the king can give be compared to the glory and wealth given by the emperor?" ”

An Lushan's murderous aura flashed on his face, and then he looked at Yan Zhuang with a suspicious gaze: "You mean, they intend to take refuge in Li Heng?" ”

"Even if there is no such meaning now, but Li Heng has repeatedly wooed him, promising to be rich and noble, and the king has been away for a long time, how can he not be tempted? They are different from the lowly position, the lowly position has no military power, nor bravery, and if they are not attached to the king, they have no resources to establish their lives. ”

Since ancient times, there has been a way to slander. After Yan Zhuang said this, An Lushan was suddenly furious: "They dare!" ”

"King, as long as the emperor in Chang'an City has a soldier to help him block his father, he doesn't care if this soldier will be surnamed An or something else. And when the king set off, he killed and killed, and at that time he sent Cheng Yuanzhen to come, obviously preparing to reprimand the king. The mustard has been born, and it is necessary to guard against it! ”

An Lushan's face was hideous, and his anger became more and more serious.

He is used to fighting, so he naturally understands that the battle between him and Ye Chang is definitely not a complete battle in a short period of time, and it is very likely that he will have to repeatedly tug at the place from Gyeonggi to Guannai. And in the process of this stalemate, if the rear is unstable and there is any turmoil, then how can he fight in the front?

"In your opinion?"

"King, the situation is already obvious at this time, how many people in all the towns of the world have sent people to see Li Heng and recognize him as the son of heaven of the Tang Dynasty? Don't say that Zhuzhen is the governor of Zhudao and prefecture and county, and how many people recognize Li Heng as the emperor? The king kept him, originally wanted to borrow the power of his call, but now that he looks at it, not only can he not borrow the power of his call, this person forced his father to rebel, and the world spurned him, but it affected the king! Yan Zhuang said: "King, since this is the case, it is better to change the son of heaven......"

"A change of heaven? Find a junior of the Li family, so as not to sit on the throne and think nonsense...... That's an idea. ”

"No, why do you want to change to a junior of the Li family, the position of the Son of Heaven, the virtuous person lives in it, and the soldiers and horses are strong! The king is now strong and strong, why not call him the emperor, and then call each other the emperor with Ge Shuhan, Ye Chang, etc., and divide the Li family, why not? ”

"I'm emperor?"

An Lushan was stunned for a while, even if he was as bold and arrogant as him, he couldn't help but be frightened by Yan Zhuang's suggestion.

It's not that he doesn't have the ambition to rebel and become the emperor, but now this ambition is just in the bud, and he always feels that the hearts of the people in the world have not completely turned their backs on the Tang Dynasty, and it is not a good choice to be the emperor at this time.

"You're going to hurt me?" He rolled his eyes: "Wouldn't being called emperor at this time become the target of everyone?" ”

"Is there less of a Li family's son killing his father and brother and killing his brother, the king is called the emperor at this time, and he replaces him, and then provokes the border generals to call each emperor and king, then the Li family will no longer have the power to command the world. Dawang Xiong is based in Gyeonggi, Hedong, and North Henan Province, and enters Tudugi, South Henan Province, Huainan Province, and Hexi, and becomes the foundation of the emperor for all generations. ”
