How much of the Divine Strategy Army does Ju Wenzhen have in his hands, Guo Rong shook his head decisively, how could he know.

"Take righteousness, come on, these have always been your secret investigations!"

"The total strength of the Shence Army in Gyeonggi and Lantian, Lintong, Sanyuan and other places is about 100,000, basically replacing the position of the original 16 guards, and the garrison is also dominated by the former Nanya 16 Guards military camp, and the Shen Ce Army controlled by Ju Wenzhen and his henchmen is conservatively estimated at 30,000 people, but it should not exceed 50,000."

Zhang Qiyi's voice fell, and Li Yu nodded.

"Although there are a lot of people in the Sixth Army of the Northern Ya, I don't think you should want it, if you want it, you can give it to you, if you don't want it, then three thousand Dragon Wuwei New Army, two thousand Jin Wuwei New Army, plus two hundred cavalry outside the city, this is all the strength I can provide you now, how about it, if you are allowed to command, what are the chances of victory?"

Guo Rong listened to Li Rui complain about the waste snacks of the Sixth Army of the Northern Ya for two whole months on the way from the Uighurs to Chang'an.

5,000 against 30,000 to 50,000, Guo Rong felt that he was in the pit again, and the combat effectiveness of the new army composed of 5,000 border troops was indeed good, but they were not against the Tibetans, let alone the Uighurs.

On the other side, there is also a serious Tang Army, or the Shence Army, which is now ranked first in the Tang Dynasty both in name and in fact.

What's even worse is that the 5,000 new troops were either placed in Daming Palace and Taiji Palace, or in the Forbidden Garden in the north of the city.

Li Xu's idea of the emperor is very simple and clear, once there is an accident, Li Yu directly and decisively chose to protect Li Chun in himself and his son Li Chun, as for himself, he is obviously resigned to fate!

Guo Rong could see how Li Yu was afraid of death, but he was afraid of death to the extreme, and he made such a scene, giving Guo Rong a realistic version, what TM is called TM surprise......

"If now, I entrust Xingqing Palace to you, do you dare to take it?"

Whether it is Li Chen's agitation method, or whether it is Li Chen's trust in Guo Rong, Guo Rong, who had no choice, accepted the mission given by Li Yan without hesitation.

Including Zhang Qiyi and Wu Yongnan, the five thousand elite Tang Army, including the two forbidden generals, became Guo Rong's temporary subordinates.

With Captain Xuanjie commanding the elite of the 5,000 Tang Army, tsk, tsk, tsk, this damn low post and high match, Guo Rong felt that he had once again created a record in the Tang Army, but this record seemed to be useless.

After receiving the order from Li Yu, Guo Rong immediately began to enter the state!

led the soldiers and horses to take the initiative to attack in the field, Guo Rong only had the painful experience of the Eighth Regiment.

But if you talk about defending the city, Guo Rong, who has been defending the city for three years in Qiuci and has been guided by a group of veteran soldiers, can definitely be called an expert.

Therefore, the first thing Guo Rong did after receiving the order was to come to the floor plan of Xingqing Palace.

After the abdominal case, Guo Rong's more than a dozen cavalrymen stationed in Guangxing Palace were summoned, ready to take Li Yu's two cronies and generals and a dozen of his own subordinates to inspect Xingqing Palace to determine the key points of defense.

As a result, this person just arrived, but the Emperor Taishang became interested in these cavalry mainly young men, and directly asked Guo Rong to introduce them one by one, and in desperation, Guo Rong simply let these guys be arranged from small to large, starting from short and fat Degang.

"Degang, nineteen years old, skilled in arching horses, keen eyes, good at capturing fighter ......, fighting with Tubo in the Qibi Ranch, it was Degang who took the lead in judging the direction of the Tubo escape!"

"Yu Qian, twenty-three years old, skilled in arching horses, calm temperament, natural and calm, able to attack and defend, good at smashing ......"

"Sha Zhou, nineteen years old, skilled in arching horses, good at tracking ......"

"He Haiyang, nineteen years old, skilled in bow horses, familiar with war horses and livestock......"

"Mo Lingjun, twenty years old, ancestral home in Hebei, good riding skills......"

……

"Li Shu'an, twenty-one years old, ancestral home Longyou, the first year of Guangde (763) to avoid disaster and escape into the grassland...... Good at strange and tricky tricks......"

"Hong Ping'an, twenty-seven years old, was originally the commander of the Tiande Army, good at foot combat, good at using the rifle, because he was unwilling to collude with the former Tiande Army judge Ren Dijian, was exiled to the grassland, captured by the Tubo people, and was rescued in the first battle of Qibi!"

"Wang Zheng, seventeen years old, his father was originally a horseman, his arm strength is amazing, good at riding and shooting, Qibi Ranch and Tubo shot 16 arrows in a battle, all hit, beheaded eleven levels, the first contribution to this battle!"

"Guo Rong, how many cavalry are there under your command?"

"Your Majesty, now that the cavalry belongs, there are two hundred young men selected by the eldest princess, and there are eighteen strong men like Hong Ping'an, plus Yan Qing and Gu Lina, a total of two hundred and twenty people, and the ministers have been with them for more than two months, although not everyone is familiar with them, but at least they can know the name."

"Listen to the name, this is all my Han family?"

"Your Majesty, the eldest princess of Yan Kingdom has been selected, although not all of them are of my Chinese Miao descent, but they are all proud of recognizing Chinese characters, knowing Tang Yin, and practicing the rituals of the Han family, and they are all my Huaxia children!"

"Good! Good! Good! They are all loyal and capable people, and they are all the pillars of my future Datang, and from now on I will also belong to you! ”

"Your Majesty, please go back to the palace and rest!"

“……”

Li Yu, who originally wanted to follow Guo Rong to patrol the city together, looked stunned, and was stunned for a while before clasping his fists and saluting.

"Li Yu, obey the generals!"

It took two full hours to complete the inspection of the entire Guangxing Palace with a group of people, and Guo Rong's confidence in his heart suddenly became a lot full.

As one of the "three interiors" in Chang'an City, the Guangxing Palace of the "South Interior" is stronger than Guo Rong's expectations.

The palace wall of Xingqing Palace is more than two miles long from east to west, nearly three miles from north to south, nearly ten miles in circumference, and nearly six meters high.

All the use is a relatively solid rammed palace wall, the inner wall on the west and north sides is about five meters wide, the east side is about six meters wide, and the south side is a double-layer palace wall because of the relationship between the diligent government building.

In the four directions, the solidity of the eight palace gates is also roughly equivalent to the city gates of Chang'an City.

Although the overall degree of defense cannot be compared with Chang'an City, it has absolutely crushed Qiuci, which only has a rammed earth city wall, and Qiuci has this city wall......

Chang'an, as the imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty, will never store large-scale siege equipment for a long time, and the attacking side can use nothing more than eight-bull crossbows and ladders, if you only rely on these two kinds of equipment, as long as you give Guo Rong a thousand people, even in the face of the powerful Shence army, Guo Rong is confident that he will hold on for at least three days!

And three days is enough!

The rebellion is about a suddenness, this is Chang'an, the imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty, and the north of the city can't take the Xingqing Palace for three days, and the rebellious army will inevitably collapse!

But now that he has the confidence, Guo Rong's heart is no longer limited to this, he has a steady counterattack, a steady defense, and Guo Rong also faintly has a direction as for the counterattack point.
