"Ah Lang, Erlang!" The housekeeper suddenly burst in excitedly from outside the garden: "Big thing, big thing!" ”

Guo Yingyi angrily scolded: "Something big! Why are they so shocked today? ”

The steward panted and said: "No, I just went out to Nanshi to do goods, and I listened to the people who came back from outside the city to say that General Yan Wu came back with Jiannan soldiers!" ”

Guo Ying was startled, put his hands on the steward's shoulders and asked, "What did you say?" Isn't it hearsay? ”

"Yan Wu is still alive?" Guo Yingyi's eyes widened and pondered, and then he raised his hand and beat his knee and regretted it: "Sure enough, the soldiers are not tired of cheating!" We were all fooled, and Li Xun was also fooled! Why didn't I insist on death in the first place? Why didn't you think that even if you are defeated with your talent in using strict forces, you won't be caught and cut off your head! ”

They knew about Li Siye's strategy, but it was too late, Chengdu had already fallen into the hands of Li Siye, the unity camp was controlled by the Cui brothers who surrendered, and the millions of grains in the city fell into the hands of the enemy, but Yan Wu became a homeless stray dog, which is really ridiculous, sad and hateful!

Guo Yinggan clasped his palms together and said, "When General Yan Wu comes back, maybe there will be a turnaround." ”

"No," Guo Yingyi shook his head decadently and said, "It is a dead end for him to come back, and he should lead the army to retreat to the area of Qianzhong." ”

……

On Li Siye's way back to Xingyuan, Duan Xiushi asked puzzled behind him: "The Guo brothers have no outstanding talent, and their ability to lead troops to fight is also decent, they are not excellent generals, why does the lord still value them so much." ”

He laughed and said: "You are right, the Guo brothers are indeed not talented, but he is still useful in Chengdu, I want to use them to control Cui Ning Cui Mi, so that they will not be alone in Shu in the future and form an independent kingdom." But I can't discourage their enthusiasm too much, so I don't plan to leave a single soldier in Shu, so that they can form an ecological circle of mutual checks and balances, and many talents under my command can't be wasted in this place. More importantly, I am preparing to organize the drafting of a system that can prevent local forces from confronting the central government, and once implemented, it will not be a problem to implement it firmly for at least a few hundred years. ”

Wei Yingwu crossed his hands beside him and praised: "The lord is far-sighted and far-sighted, and I can't predict it unless I am a mediocre person." ”

He turned around and smiled: "Even you Wei Yingwu have become mediocre?" This sycophant is not very good. ”

At this time, Li Siye's tooth general hurriedly came from a distance, crossed his hands in front of him and said, "Lord, Yan Wu has led the Jiannan army to the city to call for battle. ”

"Great, let's just go to the city walls and have a look. You go and invite Li Xun and his colleagues to the city wall, and see how Lone provokes this Yan Wu. ”

Under the coercion of Li Siye, the culprits who advocated the sacrifice of the city were driven to the city wall, and the festival made Li Xun's face full of shame, he really had no face to face Yan Wu, and the rest of the surrender faction was okay, some of them were guilty and covered their faces, and some simply straightened their stomachs and were content, these are all faceless.

Yan Wu's blood was spurting with blood, his face turned pale with anger, and he clutched the reins of his horse tightly, and the horse ran back and forth in front of the city in a rage, and his eyes were angry at every traitor on the city wall.

Li Siye held on to the wall battlement and waved at Yan Wu and said: "General Yan, today I am the master, you are a guest, come to my city of Chengdu, what else can you say?" ”

"Whew! Li thief, you don't want to be proud, today I Yan Wu returned to Chengdu, is to take your head, dare to lead the army out of the city and fight with my 30,000 Jiannan soldiers. ”

"Haha," Li Siye laughed loudly: "In the past, you occupied the city of Shu County, and I could only lose my troops and fight hard, but now that I have obtained Chengdu without much effort, how can I give up the benefits of the city and go down to fight a field battle with you?" ”

Yan Wu shouted and scolded: "What do you say about the Hexi Army under the command of King Xiliang is the strongest in the world, I think they are all a group of self-boasting and self-defeating guts of the mouses, what is the Hexi Army in vain, the Flying Tiger Ride, I think it should be called the Loose Army, the Flying Squirrel Ride!" ”

The generals and soldiers behind him all laughed to provoke Li Siye to send troops to meet him.

The tooth general behind Li Siye, Kubani, was angry, and said with his crossed hands: "Please allocate five thousand soldiers and horses to me, I will go out of the city to pick this guy's head!" ”

He smiled and waved his hand and said, "It's not time to fight yet, so you wait patiently." ”

He stretched out his hand and pointed to the many Shuzhong officials on the city wall and asked: "General Yan Wu, look at these people standing in line on the city wall, they used to be your superiors and colleagues, but today they are your enemies, and their standing here is equivalent to standing on the same position with me and jointly dealing with you." Don't you pride yourself on being loyal to the southern court? Aren't you a great loyalist? How did it fall into the point of rebellion and separation, and it can be seen that the new Tang Dynasty obeyed the mandate of heaven to win the hearts of the people, and the old Tang Dynasty was unpopular. ”

"Bah, shameless thief, I, Yan Wu, are inseparable from you! Why don't you go down to the city and die! ”

Li Siye coughed twice, stretched out his hand to hold his throat and said, "Suddenly my voice was a little hoarse." He suddenly turned his head to Li Xian and Shuzhong's officials, and asked with a smile: "Colleagues, can you scold Yan Wu for Gu, the more ruthless the better." ”

How could they open their mouths, even Du Ji, who had always prided himself on being cheeky, hesitated.

Li Siye's face turned cold, and his tooth general Kubani walked up with the tooth soldiers dressed in armor, pulled out half of the horizontal knife at his waist and said: "General Yamen can carry out military orders for the lord, and those who disobey orders on the battlefield will not be killed!" ”

Li Xun and the officials were so frightened that Du Ji had already scolded first: "Yan Wu Xiao'er, King Yong adheres to the number of days and supports the New Tang Dynasty, you are a little horseman, how can you fight against the will of heaven?" ”

The rest of the people also threw away evil words one after another: "Yan Wu, what are you, the Tang Dynasty is the world of the Li family, and now that the Southern Imperial Court is in decline, you blindly help the abuse, you really deserve to die." ”

"Yan Wu Xiao'er, you dare to challenge King Yong's army with such a few soldiers and horses, isn't it looking for death?"

These vicious words came from the mouth of the person he knew best, and the attack power brought by him was naturally doubled, Yan Wu's chest was churning with anger and rage, how dare these rats do this?

Li Xun remained silent, his identity and the only remaining bit of dignity did not allow him to break through the bottom line. Li Siye said with a smile on his face but with a blade in his face: "King Xin'an, why don't you scold? Are you still lucky, and want to wait for Yan Wu to break through the city and restore the old Tang Dynasty? Or do you disregard your own life and that of your family? ”

Kubani walked to Li Xun's side with a knife, pulled out the blade and glared at him intimidatingly: "Scold or not?" ”

The hope of life still prevailed over personal dignity, and Li Xiansha scolded down in a hoarse voice: "Yan Wu Xiao'er, Shuzhong has changed its banner, why do you want to take humiliation and destroy yourself?" It's not too early to flee south in order to survive and steal a living, otherwise King Yong's finger will be directed, and thousands of troops and horses will be able to cut off your dog's head. ”

Li Xian's words concealed his original intention, which was to tell Yan Wu that the enemy army had an ambush nearby, so that Yan Wu could quickly evacuate from the vicinity of Chengdu and go to Qianzhong County in the south, where he could get the support of the Jiangdong Imperial Court.

However, Yan Wu was already angry, and he couldn't hear the meaning of Li Xian's words, and looked up at the city, where the repeated scolding of Li Heng and the officials in Shuzhong continued. Li Siye laughed while holding on to the wall, and a group of rebels also laughed.

He held the blood in his chest and held it in his mouth, gritted his teeth and shouted: "Give me a siege!" ”

People can do anything in the case of anger, Yan Wu's order has completely lost his mind, and the generals have persuaded behind him: "Yan Gong, our army only has 30,000 horses, isn't it a fool's dream to conquer Chengdu?" ”

"Lao Tzu personally led the troops to the city, and the remaining generals and captains must take the lead! Kill me! ”
