Think too highly of the emperor, right?

"Isn't An Shi looking too highly at the emperor?" Zhou Dewei's tone was a little displeased.

"The general didn't know that the king of Jin was at war with Helian Duo and Li Congwei in an unfavorable manner, and Zhang Jun advocated attacking Hedong, so our army laid a lot of eyeliner in Chang'an, and every move of the imperial court could not escape our eyes, and the emperor was not what it used to be, so the last general knew very well."

Guo Chongtao is the pawn of the King of Jin, in charge of the affairs of the guests, and also the military aircraft, in recent years, he is quite valued by the King of Jin, so in this battle in the river, the King of Jin specially transferred him to Zhou Dewei to experience.

However, Zhou Dewei felt that the rise of the emperor would not be beneficial to Hedong.

Zhou Dewei was a typical martial artist in the late Tang Dynasty, and he did not have such a strong sense of identity with the Tang Dynasty.

On the contrary, Li Keyong, the king of Jin, promoted him to a general, and entrusted him with all the affairs of the north.

Therefore, he was desperate for Rick.

"With the rise of the Tang Dynasty, won't our army have another strong enemy?"

Guo Chongtao said with a smile: "The general is too worried, the general trend of the world is all in Guandong, Guanzhong is tired, the population is declining sharply, and the wealth is scattered, even if the emperor integrates Guanzhong, what can he do?" It's just that there is a bigger Li Maozhen, Zhu Quanzhong is the mortal enemy of our army, and also the emperor's enemy, before Zhu Quanzhong fell, we are still allies, and the weight of our army is in Hebei, and only by taking Hebei can we have the strength to compete with Zhu Quanzhong. ”

Zhou Dewei nodded slightly, agreeing with Guo Chongtao's analysis.

Since Zhu Wen eliminated his biggest opponent, Qin Zongquan, his strength has skyrocketed unprecedentedly, the Central Plains has swept down, and the town of Heshuo Domain has fallen to the wind.

Even King Jin didn't dare to face his front.

Once the land in the river fell into the hands of Zhu Wen, a semi-encirclement was formed in Hedong, and the situation was greatly unfavorable to Hedong.

That's why the king of Jin transferred him back from the north.

In terms of far-sightedness, Zhou Dewei is indeed inferior to Guo Chongtao, but in terms of military strategy, he is definitely the top in the world. Zhou Dewei knew the importance of this battle, and looked at the enemy camp on the south bank like a sword: "Zhang Cunjing must be defeated!" ”

Yuzhou.

The night when you can't see your fingers.

Zhang Xingjin hadn't slept yet, patrolling the city wall.

In the past few days, he has always been a little restless, and he always feels that something is about to happen.

Yuzhou cannot afford to lose, otherwise it will not be able to explain to the emperor.

Of course, if Yuzhou is lost, he feels that he doesn't need to explain to anyone, and his life will definitely stay here.

Concerning his own life, Zhang Xingjin had to be cautious.

Patrolling along the road, the mental state of the soldiers on the city wall is okay, worthy of the brothers brought out of Xiliu City, Zhang Xingjin saw them, and his heart was much more stable.

It's just that the state of Yuzhou's surrender is much worse.

Wobbly, some leaned against the pheasant moat to sleep.

There was no need for Zhang Xingjin to make a move, the guards guarding the city kicked in and said viciously: "Concentrate, rotate once every two hours!" ”

Zhang Xingjin nodded slightly, still his own people.

The eastern wall was full of refugees, so the focus of the defenders was also here.

Sometimes, Zhang Xingjin really wanted to shoot arrows to drive them away.

But I remembered the military order set by His Majesty: not to disturb the people.

He could only give up, he would rather die on the battle line than die on the military order.

The northern city is also the focus of defense, and the enemies are basically from there.

When we reached Dongcheng, the garrison gradually weakened, and to the east was Shaanzhou, and the enemy would not attack from that direction.

When they arrived at the south city wall, the garrison was even more sparse, and they were all guarded by some descended soldiers, saying that they were guarding, and they were all sleeping in the garrison.

Zhang Xingjin was furious, pulled out the scabbard and hit it.

The beaten soldier looked stunned, scolded and scolded, and when he saw Zhang Xingjin's black face, he immediately swallowed the second half of his words.

Zhang Xingjin couldn't wait to pull out a knife and kill people.

But he couldn't do this, he brought only two thousand people, and almost two thousand and a half soldiers, the last time someone colluded to rebel, he suppressed it with iron and blood, and the heads were rolling, together with the people in the city who took the opportunity to make trouble, killed more than 4,000 people, and barely suppressed it.

If you kill people again, I am afraid that it will backfire and make the people in the city panic.

Zhang Xingjin suppressed the desire to kill rising in his heart, and only said that he would let them go all night.

At this time, at the end of spring, the night was still cold, and the black hole under the city was like a bottomless abyss, and the torch could not shine.

"Did you hear anything?" A guard beside him suddenly said.

This personal guard was recruited into Daming Palace with Zhang Xingjin, and his skills are also good, he has a good relationship, and he doesn't talk so much about his superiors and subordinates, Zhang Xingjin has always been with him, and he is ready to recommend it to His Majesty when he has the opportunity.

"What do you hear?" Zhang Xingjin stopped. "There's movement down there!" The guard whispered.

Zhang Xingjin's heart tightened, but his face did not change, he quietly moved to the wall, pulled down the torch, and threw it down.

Under the light of the fire, a group of black-clad and black-armored people are climbing the city!

Zhang Xingjin was frightened, and was about to shout, when several knife lights slashed next to him.

With a few muffled snorts, a few guards around him fell.

Zhang Xingjin turned around, only to find that it was the soldiers he had just beaten, "You ......"

He is not a fool, and he knows in an instant that the soldiers are colluding with the enemies under the city!

Can't shout, once the whole city is alarmed, I don't know how much chaos it will cause, the two thousand Praetorian Guards may not be able to suppress it, not to mention that there are enemies under the city!

Zhang Xingjin was in a cold sweat, and there were four guards by his side at this time.

More than a dozen soldiers were murderous, and their eyes were full of hatred.

Wang Heng has been running Shaanxi Erzhou for more than ten years, and there are many loyal people, Zhang Xingjin suddenly succeeded, although he has been careful to be vigilant, but he still can't subdue them.

Two of the fallen guards got up, and the other two were silent.

Fortunately, they were trained harshly and brutally in Hosoyanagi City, and they all wore two layers of armor.

And the pawns are all leather armor, and the iron armor has long been premeditated by Zhang Xingjin.

There was no time to mourn for the fallen people, Zhang Xingjin quickly calmed down, his eyes were cold, and he shouted in a low voice: "Kill!" "North of Weishui.

The busy scene of Hosoliu City has long since disappeared.

When the scouts found out the news that the party army was heading south, Ann Sicheng demolished all the houses outside the city and moved the wood and stones back into the city.

Xiliu City has been comprehensively reinforced, although it is not comparable to the city walls of Huazhou and Tongzhou, but it is also a decent fortress city.

Hearing the news that the party members were heading south, the rabbit cubs in the city who had not yet completed their transformation were eager to try, and there was no tension at all about the bloody battle. This made Yang Jian quite pleased.

Military Heart is available.

The higher terrain of Xiliu City, the cavalry of the party and the people could not play their strengths.

Yang Jian hoped that the party members would come to attack the city.

His Majesty was appointed as the nine commanders, Zhou Yunyi and Ashina Zhenyan shined, and Zhang Xingjin was not bad, all of them became generals who led the army alone, but their performance was mediocre.

How can young people not be ambitious?

He also wants to prove that he will not only train soldiers, but also go into battle to kill the enemy.

After listening to the story of Zhongyitang too much, I always feel that my heart is holding back the fire, and Yang Jian especially likes to listen to the story of Huo Qu's illness and sealing the wolf Juxu.

If you think you have the ability, don't fight in the nest, go to the desert grassland to fight!

But his expectations were doomed to fail.

The party army was stagnant in front of the fine willow city, neither southward nor attacking the city, as if it had come to spring.

Even the farmland outside the city was not damaged.

This made Yang Jian feel embarrassed.

Since you don't want to fight, why are you coming all the way here?
