Millions of Tang troops were waiting at Tongguan for a million Sichuan troops to attack.

Anyone who is not stupid will know that the court is finished. Tens of thousands of artillery pieces of the Sichuan army bombarded for several hours, and then tens of thousands of tanks rushed forward, followed by tens of thousands of armored vehicles and personnel carriers, and the imperial army would be completely annihilated - not even an hour!

On September 20 of the first year of Datang Hongsi, the Battle of Tongguan broke out.

The first Sichuan army appeared in Tongguan. In the forward were a thousand tanks, on the flanks were two thousand armored vehicles and trucks, artillery in the middle, and thousands of infantry with submachine guns followed. This is a standard configuration for an army of 20,000 people.

The first trench more than ten meters deep, more than ten meters wide, and dozens of kilometers long blocked them. They stopped, or buried the earth, or built bridges. At this time, the artillery fire of the imperial army was precisely aimed at them, the muskets and rifles of the government army also fired, and the death squads of the miscellaneous army also rushed forward with broadswords.

After a bloody battle, hundreds of people died in the Sichuan army and thousands in the Tang army. The Sichuan army crossed the first trench, followed by a few kilometers of plains - kilometers of minefields, to be exact, with gunpowder mines, explosives mines, and more traps.

Then a second of the same trenches appeared...... There were a total of 100 identical trenches in the back, all the way to the bottom of Luoyang City. It took the imperial court a month to dig up half of the Central Plains with tens of millions of people.

The two sides fought in the Central Plains, and there were mountains of corpses and a sea of blood everywhere. The Sichuan army suffered tens of thousands of casualties every few tens of kilometers of its advance. And although the Tang army waited for work, it still suffered more casualties than the Sichuan army.

Yang Mingyang was shocked: "What is the situation?" Are the Sichuan troops stupid? An army and a military place to send to death? Why can't we rush together? ”

Those prisoners of the Sichuan army all said: "The generals said that Sichuan is great, and the interior is low, if a million divine troops attack together, then look down on the divine army and look down on the Tang army." The divine army is invincible, and one army can wipe out dozens of armies in the interior, how can it be as knowledgeable as the lowly mainland? Anyone who thinks that the Sichuan army must fight one by one is a 'Sichuan traitor' and a coward and a traitor in Sichuan; and all those who think that the Sichuan army can be a hundred are 'Sichuan lovers' and are all warriors and loyal ministers of Sichuan. Therefore, dozens of armies in Sichuan went to die one army after another! Ay! We've been miserable by the 'Kawa Lovers'! ”

When the Sichuan army advanced to Kaifeng, they stopped.

At this time, a message from Deng Shunzi came from the top-secret telegraph: "The first step is complete. ”

I see, the first step of the agreement is complete. Except for Deng Shunzi's 100,000 descendants, the rest of the Sichuan army has almost died.

At this time, hundreds of thousands of people died in the Sichuan army, and millions in the Tang army.

The second step is to counterattack Chang'an.

The emperor ordered the Don army to counterattack.

A month ago, the Yang Army's Mansion Army and the Qinwang Army from all over the country saw that the imperial court was going to counterattack, and immediately ran fast and went straight to Chang'an. The Liaodong Army from afar also gathered with the Western Liang Army in Liangzhou City, and then went straight to Chang'an.

The imperial army entered Tongguan. But the armies encountered along the way are all squirrels and rebelled forbidden armies. The Death Cult fought stubbornly, dying one by one, while the Forbidden Army surrendered again.

Although the Battle of Chang'an was tragic and glorious, it actually did not exist. The "tragic and glorious" Battle of Chang'an existed only in the war briefings of various officers and in the front-page headlines of dozens of newspapers.

The intelligence of the Secret Department, the Intelligence Department, the Jinyi Guard, and the Criminal Department all said this: The Sichuan army withdrew directly, and the imperial army entered directly. In fact, almost not a single house in the Greater Chang'an District was damaged.

People later learned that almost all of the Death Serving Sect were dead, but Xin Yongqiu, the leader of the Death Serving Sect, was dead and alive. Li Hongguang returned to the Western Regions with the Western Regions Army. The Western Regions army didn't suffer much, they just plundered and left.

However, when the Western Regions Army went north, it fought a battle with the Liaodong Army and the Western Liang Army. Although the Western Liang Army and the Liaodong Army were all armed with muskets and rifles, and although the Western Regions Army was a sword, the Western Regions Army still routed the two armies, burrowed into the boundless grassland, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

A few days later, the news came that after the Sichuan army withdrew from the Great Chang'an District, it did not return to Sichuan, but was stationed in Hanzhong County.

In the Tang Hall of the Imperial Palace, the emperor and the ministers were very happy, and everyone was talking and laughing happily.

The ministers all said: "Your Majesty is strategizing, great sage! ”

People said, "This is a blessing from heaven, because Your Majesty is the true son of heaven!" ”

People say: "Sichuan is against the province, not self-sufficient!" ”

People say, "Some are rebels too!" For example, Zheng Anmin and Lu Ziluo! ”

Zheng Anmin was crying with a sad face, and when he heard this, he immediately knelt down, kowtowed like garlic, and said, "Your Majesty, I was coerced!" The Janissaries didn't listen to me at all. ”

Emperor: "I asked him to command the forbidden army in the morning, and at noon the Sichuan army came up at once." He can't help it. ”

People say, "Then you have to die!" ”

The emperor frowned and said, "All right! Punish him for one year, and the official will be demoted to three levels! ”

Someone pointed at Lu Ziluo and said, "He is also a traitor!" The entire Imperial University is full of traitors! ”

Lu Ziluo: "I didn't say a bad word about Datang!" It's what they say. ”

Zhao Yuyang: "Lu Ziluo has already told the imperial court that the students of the Imperial University are not credible. Doesn't that mean he's right? ”

The Emperor nodded.

People pointed at each other, some grabbed credit, some impeached.

Yang Mingyang: "Your Majesty, the Sichuan army came too fast at that time, and there was no way to do it. If everyone investigates, the court will not be able to do it. ”

The Emperor nodded.

Someone said, "No wonder the prime minister said this, because the prime minister kept saying that he wanted to surrender!" It turns out that you are the biggest traitor! ”

That man was a young Jiangnan warrior who came to King Qin a few months ago with hundreds of village soldiers. Although there were few people, the emperor saw his loyalty and gave him a big title.

Yang Mingyang looked at him angrily.

Emperor: "I trust the Prime Minister. His army of millions was a great help. ”

Zhang Qiangsheng sneered: "Yes, digging a pit has helped a lot." ”

Emperor: "Alright! That's it, don't talk about it again! ”

But people remembered that at this time, there were still more than 100,000 remnants of the Sichuan army occupying Hanzhong, so dozens of ministers rushed to lead troops to destroy the Sichuan army, and some even led troops to capture the holy capital.

Joke! These hundreds of thousands of "remnants" have tens of thousands of tanks and even hundreds of aircraft. If they want to fight, this "mere 100,000 remnants of the army" can still wipe out all the Tang troops and dominate the world!

Emperor Li Hongsi on the dragon chair waved his hand: "I have my own arrangements!" Retreat! ”

As for these Sichuan troops in Hanzhong County, they need to be resolved by the third step of the agreement.

In the secret room next to the Tang Dynasty, I said to the emperor, "I need all the ritual vessels of the royal family to hold a surrender ceremony of the highest level." When they return to Sichuan, the Great Wall of Sichuan will be closed, and then everything will be over. ”

The emperor nodded: "Whatever you want, whatever you want." ”

Of course, this "surrender ceremony" is the surrender of the Tang Dynasty, not the surrender of Sichuan.

It's easy to see why.

If the Sichuan army goes back like this, I am afraid that the people will be excited, and Yang Qiujin will not end well. There are no steps under the steps in Sichuan, and maybe people will force him to attack the interior again. And now, Sichuan people know in their hearts that they have failed, but they can pretend to succeed and deceive themselves, and Yang Qiujin can be the one who "turns the tide and falls".
