Guo Ziyi led 15,000 troops and stationed on the front line of the Taohe River, relying on the mountains and underwater villages to guard the crossing of the Yellow River.

Although the Lingwu city wall is strong, once it is surrounded, the grain and grass of hundreds of thousands of troops will be consumed, which is a large amount. During this period of time, the gold and silver treasures they brought out from the palace have been exhausted, and most of the soldiers, horses, money, and grain in various states and counties have been controlled by the Tang Dynasty and An Lushan's two armies, and the territory and materials they can grasp have been compressed by these two armies, and they have retreated unlimitedly.

As a result, they began to expropriate villages one by one, leaving only the elderly, weak, women and children, and the last surplus food of every family was also plundered by these officers and soldiers.

But even so, the army's equipment was still extremely poor, and the food and grass were seriously insufficient, and they could only have two meals a day, which was only enough to survive.

This is also a matter of no way, rashly going to war, to grab the territory of the Tang Dynasty or An Lushan, often the result of the annihilation of the whole army, fortunately, the Tang Dynasty still has some appeal, many officials and gentry and businessmen have transported the materials in their hands to Lingwu through Cao Yun, which has slightly reduced the financial pressure.

However, at the beginning, Li Heng's official position under Feng was too big and too indiscriminate, but it also led to the dissatisfaction of many people. The big officials have been given to others, who is still so enthusiastic about King Qin?

In such a difficult situation, Li Heng still supported it, especially the 100,000 elite soldiers he trained with Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi, it was not that they had no combat effectiveness, but the equipment was really not flattering.

Fortunately, Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi are both talented generals, and they are very good at training soldiers, which makes this army have considerable combat power. Of course, it is conceivable that the other 300,000 troops will be much inferior. However, in the troubled times, only when you get the people first, can we talk about restoring the world.

The news that An Lushan had sent Sun Xiaozhe to challenge the spirit again reached the ears of the crown prince Li Heng, causing him to be greatly frightened and resentful at the same time. This bastard is not a human being, but he has challenged his dignity again and again.

Since he came to Lingwu to settle down, this Sun Xiaozhe has simply become his magic star, and from time to time he has led troops to harass him, scaring the people in this area so much that they have almost run away, not to mention, he is still challenging under the city, and he has made countless insulting words.

The usual insults are okay, but these damn rebels always use Yang Yuhuan to humiliate him.

He is the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, a man in his forties, even if he is weak, he is still a man. Objectively speaking, he knows that coercing Li Longji to abdicate at such a time is not a soft role. It's just that the light of his son Li Longji is too dazzling, which makes him look incompetent.

"Guo Aiqing, you lead 30,000 troops, just wait for Sun on the bank of the Tao River, this time, Ben Shuai must give him some color!"

"yes, give him some color."

Almost all the generals under his command were holding a breath of air in their hearts, and the feeling of being ridden on their heads and every day really made them fed up. After these three months, the 100,000 army was finally trained to the point where it could be used, and all the soldiers, including Li Heng, looked a little impatient.

"Back to the crown prince, I don't need 30,000 horses, only 15,000 soldiers and horses to defeat Sun Xiaozhe."

"Aiqing is brave and well-known in the world, but you must not underestimate the enemy."

"Prince, please rest assured. Sun Xiaozhe is extremely proud, every time he comes to my Lingwu challenge, he only uses 30,000 horses, I just want to frustrate his sharpness, only 15,000 people, it is enough. ”

Li Heng has always known Guo Ziyi's talent, and he was overjoyed when he heard this: "Okay, Aiqing, Ben Shuai has prepared a celebration banquet for you!" ”

"Prince Xie trusts!"

In this way, Guo Ziyi took 15,000 soldiers and horses and extremely inferior equipment to the front line of Taohe to block Sun.

……

After Guo Ziyi left, Li Heng issued an order again: "Where is Li Guangbi?" ”

"The subordinates are here."

"Do you know what I call you for?"

"Back to the Prince. The prince is wise and martial, everything is in the candlelight, and it is difficult for Weichen to guess. ”

"Good. Aiqing, I don't embarrass you, I want you to lead 30,000 troops this time, follow Guo Ziyi, if he wins, you don't have to do it; If you are defeated, come to the rescue immediately. No matter what, it's a great achievement for you! ”

Wechen obeyed. Thank you for your great kindness. ”

Li Guangbi led his troops and then rushed there.

As soon as this order was given, everyone knew that Li Heng was desperate to boost morale with a victory.

In the past few months, the Tang court has been suppressed too much.

Sun Xiaozhe sent the forward Xianhongdu to lead the troops of 3,000 degrees of the river, and he himself led the brigade to come slowly.

He treated the mission as a trip.

Li Heng is such a coward, he is already embarrassed to bully, looking at the rows of trenches outside his city, high mountains, ancient crossings, and deserted cities, he is a little uncomfortable for this kid.

Haha, just let you survive in this turtle-like place, you don't know, I'm going to capture Lingwu, it's as simple as eating and drinking. However, Brother An has an order to let you live for a few more days for the time being.

The army under his command has bright armor, all of them are cavalry, the soldiers are all warriors of the northern country, and the horses are also good horses of Xiliang.

An Lushan saved his life, taught him supreme martial arts, and made him the general of Xiliang, so he was grateful to An Lushan and swore allegiance. Although this time, An Lushan did not give him the order to cross the river to provoke Li Heng, but only asked him to garrison the front line of the Taohe River. But he knew that if he didn't make some contributions, the current Emperor Dayan would not be satisfied, so he came to the outside of Lingwu City according to the practice of crossing the river several times before.

Just when he was proudly thinking about the countless brilliant achievements, the scout in front came to report: "General, there is Guo Ziyi leading the army to block the road on the side of the Tao River." ”

"What, he dares to go out of town to fight me?" Sun Xiaozhe was taken aback.

"Yes. Our scout battalion saw Guo Ziyi personally in the army, and there were many soldiers and horses under his command, a full 6,000 war horses. ”

"This is strange, order the forward troops to wait and see for the time being, and wait for the meeting of the large armies before making a decision."

The herald was given the order to leave, and Sun Xiaozhe ordered the whole army to advance at full speed.

Cavalry.

What is the concept of a cavalry of 30,000 men?

It is a force that should not be underestimated in the whole world, and it is no wonder that An Lushan is so relieved of Sun Xiaozhe, this army is a pervert in the army, and it is so strong that it is irresistible.

Xianhongdu led 3,000 cavalry to the front line of Taohe, and the first thing he encountered was Guo Ziyi's resistance.

The two armies had already taken precautions, the archers shot their positions, and the two armies formed a formation.

Although Xianhongdu was a little surprised, he was a man who had experienced a hundred battles after all, and his men and horses were all soldiers who had been in battle for a long time. Although there are only 3,000 people, they are majestic and imposing.

"General Xian, An Lushan is the number one traitor, if you work for him, there will be no good end, it is better to take refuge in the imperial court, and you will definitely not lose the position of the marquis."

"Bullshit! What nonsense, there kind of come out and fight me for three hundred rounds. ”

After finishing speaking, he slapped the horse and danced the knife, and the horse came out and took Guo Ziyi directly.

Guo Ziyi was furious: "I don't know what to do, is General Ben afraid of you?" ”

After saying that, the golden gun of the sun was raised, and the horse was slapped to meet it.

When!

As soon as the two weapons came into contact, Xianhongdu's body shook, but Guo Ziyi did not move at all, and a contemptuous smile appeared on his face: "In vain, you are still the vanguard of the rebels, and your martial arts are nothing more than that." ”

In his words, the meaning of ridicule was very strong and full of disdain.

"Ah, grandpa let you see how good I am." Xianhongdu is very brave, and his martial arts are almost comparable to those of Tian Chenghe, but now he is excited by Guo Ziyi, and he is so angry that he yells, and he doesn't want to urge the war horse to fight with Guo Ziyi.

Guo Ziyi's face was full of sneers, and the plough flower marksmanship was opened, and the snow fell one after another, and the first Hong was shocked: This surname is extremely strong, why is the marksmanship so terrifying?

In just three moves, he has gone from death to life, from life to death, Guo Ziyi's marksmanship really has the opportunity of ghosts and gods, and he often assassinates from an impossible angle.

Fortunately, Xianhongdu is not a weakling, but a master at the peak level of dark energy, under Guo Ziyi's overwhelming offensive, although he is losing and retreating, he can barely resist the offensive.

It's just that Guo Ziyi took advantage of his defeat and retreated, and he had already whipped his finger forward and commanded the army to rush over.

As soon as he gained the upper hand in momentum, the six thousand cavalry and nearly ten thousand infantry behind him immediately rushed forward with a shout, and Xianhong's formation was suddenly impulsive.

Fortunately, this group of elite soldiers of the An army has been in battle for a long time, although the number is small, but they have rich experience in actual combat, and they formed a shield formation to resist Guo Ziyi's wave after wave of offensives.

At this time, Xianhongdu had been chased out of the battle by Guo Ziyi.

There is no way, Xianhong knows that if he is defeated and returns to the formation, there will be a gap in the formation of all the three thousand forward soldiers, because he must meet him, so he flees around the formation.

But Guo Ziyi obviously wouldn't let him go, slapping his horse and raising his gun, and chased after him.

At this time, Guo Ziyi's army had a series of medium trumpet artillery, war drums and thunder, and the horn of the attack was sounded.

Xianhong didn't dare to fight, and urged the horse to go to the official road in the direction of Luoyang.

The reason why he dared to go around the formation was that the horse under the seat was a good horse for thousands of miles, and he concluded that Guo Ziyi couldn't catch up with him.

Fluffy! A loud bang. Xianhongdu was only concerned about hurrying, and the horse under the seat was suddenly overturned, tumbling and falling to the ground.

As soon as he fell to the ground, his body was suddenly clicked on the acupoint, and the young man who pointed at his acupoint was twenty-three or four years old, it was Li Heng's county horse Guo Ai, although his martial arts were not as good as his father, but he was also a master of the peak of dark energy.

Guo Ziyi was overjoyed, and ordered Guo Ai to quickly escort Xianhongdu back to Lingwu to ask for merit, return to Ma to command the battle of Taohe, and kill these 3,000 people cleanly, and when Sun Xiaozhe's army arrived, there were only dead corpses left everywhere.

In this battle, Sun Xiaozhe was only frightened, and he deeply regretted that he was careless and underestimated the enemy, and as a result, 3,000 forward soldiers were surrounded by Guo Ziyi.
