At this time, Ge Shuhan, his troops have suffered heavy losses, only 30,000 horse troops, 20,000 infantry, seeing Shi Siming stop attacking, his heart was overjoyed, and he hurriedly commanded his generals to arrange a formation, the shield hand constituted the first defense, and then the pikemen and the broadsword team constituted the second and third defenses in turn, and the innermost was Ge Shuhan's nearly 10,000 personal soldiers, all holding sabers, protecting the commander of the Chinese army.

Shi Siming looked at it, and nodded secretly in his heart: "This person can rely on Tongguan to block me for more than 180 days, he is indeed a general, and today's situation is naturally to recover him as the best policy, otherwise if it is really desperate, even if our army wins, I am afraid that we will have to pay a one-to-one price." ”

I saw that he was carrying a sword in his hand, and he rode his horse to the front of the battle, and he was less than a shot away from Ge Shuhan's archers, and he did not bring a single attendant.

All the people were full of horror, especially An Shouzhong, who knew that with Brother Shuhan's ability, if he ordered the archers to fire ten thousand arrows, Shi Siming would most likely be killed with one blow, didn't he go crazy?

I only heard Shi Siming say in a loud voice: "Please ask General Ge Shuhan to come out and speak." ”

Ge Shuhan had already finished his stop at this time, and as soon as he heard this, he flew out on a horse, also with a single sword, without an entourage, and was shocked by the prophecy of the Tang Dynasty - Shi Siming really wanted to surrender himself.

At the moment, he said coldly: "What do you want to say?" ”

Shi Siming clenched his fists on the horse: "General." As the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses of the Great Yan World, I am exposed to the range of your army with a single sword, and I want to show my sincerity to the general. In today's situation, the general only has 50,000 horses, and our 500,000 troops are exactly ten times the size of your army. ”

"The eldest husband is from Rong for a day, when the horse leather shroud is returned, today is the time for me to serve my majesty, don't mention the word surrender."

These words were the words that the Tang Dynasty had predicted when Shi Siming would go to Tongguan, and now when I heard Shi Siming say it, I couldn't help but use it casually.

"Why not mention it? The general's words are not true. In ancient times, the good birds chose trees and perched, the virtuous ministers chose the lord and did things, Li Longji himself was difficult to protect, and Li Heng didn't care about your life or death, and sent a cunning Gao Xianzhi like a fox to help you, but the general was loyal to the Tang Dynasty, and he actually accepted the order in such a situation, insisted on fighting, in order to succeed by chance, and now he is under siege, and he is worthy of being a real hero. You have already done what you have to do for Li Longji, why can't you surrender? ”

When Ge Shuhan heard this, he was silent according to the original instructions of the Tang Dynasty.

Shi Siming was overjoyed, knowing that Ge Shuhan did not have a strong intention to fight to the death, so he hurriedly struck while the iron was hot: "General, your courage and loyalty are seen by everyone in the world, and now that you have taken refuge in us, it is not a pity for the Li family." This is what the Li family forced you to do. If you think about it, the general has been holding on to the lonely city for half a year, but Li Longji and the others have not sent a single soldier to support you, which shows that they may be cowardly, or they may not care about the safety of the general at all. If it were Li Longji, even if I only had 3,000 men, I would have come to Tongguan to rescue the general. But general, look at how timid Li Longji is, he is cowering at the Sword Gate Pass, and he doesn't dare to take a step out of the pass; And Li Heng has no talent for governing the country, he has been operating in Lingwu for six months, and he can't control his subordinates, and he obviously sent Gao Xianzhi to rescue Tongguan, but now he is still moving. General, can't you see that the people you serve so faithfully are useless people, and in the future, the Central Plains will definitely be the world of my Dayan, why can't you abandon the darkness and turn to the light? ”

These words were very convincing, and even if Ge Shuhan heard them again, he felt that he was deeply reasonable, and said at the moment: "The marshal's words are not unreasonable, but in the past six months, he has been the enemy of the returning army, and in the past six months, he has killed many of you, can the marshal and His Majesty Dayan pardon me?" ”

"You don't have to worry about that! I, Shi Siming, swore in front of the three armies: As long as the general is willing to submit to my Dayan, I promise not to hurt half of your hair, and the emperor will definitely be happy when he knows it; I can also assure you that you will continue to lead your troops and horses in the future, and you will only be promoted and not demoted compared to when you were an official under Li Longji. ”

I saw Shi Siming's horsewhip shake and roll up a long sword on the ground.

I saw a flash of white light, Shi Siming's middle finger popped out, and with a snap, the long sword broke from it.

Although this sword is not the sword he wears, with the power of his middle finger, he can break a steel sword with one hand, which is indeed a very deep kung fu.

Cheer!

Shi Siming's personal soldiers cheered loudly to strengthen their momentum.

Ge Shuhan looked at this hand, and fear also rose in his heart, he knew that he could barely do this, but if he wanted to do it like Shi Siming, he couldn't do it lightly, to put it mildly.

When Ge Shuhan saw it, he knew that it was time to surrender, so he took out his sword and shouted at all the soldiers around him: "Generalissimo Shi said well, I will hold Tongguan for Li Longji for six months, I am already sorry for the Li family, and now I have to take refuge in Dayan, it is our best choice, put down my weapons for me!" ”

With a clang, Ge Shuhan threw out the thick-backed machete in his hand first.

In this way, the 50,000 troops behind him listened to the order together, threw down their weapons, and the sound of gold and iron resonating came out, and the army surrendered together, Shi Siming was overjoyed, and grabbed Ge Shuhan's hand tightly, his expression revealed very affection, of course he knew that this person would be one of the objects he focused on wooing in the future.

The next thing is extremely simple, under the leadership of Shi Siming, Ge Shuhan and a cadre will go to the place where An Lushan in the northwest of Tongguan will station the army, meet with Emperor Dayan, and listen to the reward.

An Lushan was overjoyed when he learned that Ge Shuhan had descended, knowing that a sharp knife in his heart had finally been removed, laughing wildly, rewarding solemnity and nobility, because it was their idea that made Shi Siming make meritorious contributions, and met with Ge Shuhan and his entourage in the Chinese military tent, and then set up a banquet to entertain them.

Shi Siming took the opportunity to ask Ge Shuhan to persuade the 30,000 defenders who were still holding on to Tongguan to surrender.

Ge Shuhan readily agreed, and immediately wrote a letter to send his son to Tongguan to continue drinking.

This made Shi Siming's heart very uncomfortable, and he couldn't help but say: "General, with just a letter, I'm afraid I may not be able to ......."

Ge Shuhan smiled: "Generalissimo, please rest assured, the one who stayed in Tongguan was my deputy general Xiong Yi, his martial arts were all taught by me, and he has always obeyed me, so there should be no problem." ”

"Okay, general, Shi Mou lost his words and punished himself with three cups."

Including generals like Shi Siming and Tian Chengsi, they are also suspicious.

But an hour and a half later, Xiong Yi actually led a group of generals who guarded Tongguan to surrender together, and many of the old troops of the An'an Army were relieved and toasted each other.

At this point, the 100,000 defenders of Tongguan under the leadership of Ge Shuhan, insisted on resisting for six months, and finally could not support it and surrendered, An Lushan ambitiously sent out an order to march to Lingwu and Chang'an, and it was necessary to remove the obstacles as soon as possible and truly be the emperor of the Central Plains.

……

New Tang Dynasty Chang'an.

Tang Chao sat on the dragon chair in the Qinzheng Palace, listening to the news from Feng Xiao with a solemn expression, and the people around him were Li Bai, Sheva and Zhuanxin.

"Back to Your Majesty, Shi Siming really used the strategy of surrendering, Ge Shuhan has already taken refuge in him according to His Majesty's will, but An Lushan seems to distrust him very much, and only named him a general of the Right Army, and did not make him a general."

At the moment, Feng Xiao told the story of the loss of Tongguan one by one.

After hearing this, Tang Chao's heart relaxed slightly, it seems that everything is as he expected before, even if An Lushan's final reward is not as good as the original estimate, but it doesn't matter, as long as this chess piece is inserted, there is no worry that he will not find a chance to defeat An Lushan in the future.

"Very well done, you immediately rush to Luoyang, continue to command the reconnaissance matters, if there is any trouble, immediately fly the pigeon to report it."

"Yes." Feng Xiao is a person who does things vigorously and resolutely, and immediately took the order.

Under the circumstances at that time, the army mostly used beacons or fast horses to transmit information. However, the Tang Dynasty has been forming a carrier pigeon team since the time of Lingnan.

This is also one of the magic weapons that he has used to gain the lead in all wars.

Feng Xiao is the supreme leader of this reconnaissance force.

"Prime minister, in your opinion, how is Ge Shuhan's safety?"

What he is most worried about now is not that An Lushan and Shi Siming find out that Ge Shuhan is an undercover agent, but that he is worried about the safety of this guy, once he dies, his plan will come to naught. Of course, he already felt that the current situation was a little tight, Shi Siming had obvious intentions to win over Ge Shuhan, and An Lushan seemed to have heard of this, so he only made a right general. Ge Shu Han is brave, but he may not be able to leave and right in these intriguing struggles.

"In my opinion. An Lushan and Shi Siming are very compatible with each other, just looking at the last time without killing Shi Siming, it can also be seen that the friendship between the two for decades is not so easy to erase. And this time Shi Siming captured Tongguan, and there was no positive barrier between the two. But to be honest, I don't think Shi Siming will really assist An Lushan, and his martial arts talents are not under An Lushan, and now it seems that everything is fine, but after some time, there may be changes. Ge Shuhan's existence is a fuse that catalyzes the contradictions between them, we don't have to worry about Ge Shuhan's life or death, just let go of the attack. ”

"Father-in-law, what is your opinion?"

Sheva said: "Prime Minister Li's words are very reasonable, but I think that since Ge Shuhan really takes refuge in us, I must send someone to protect his safety, so as not to destroy this chess piece." ”

Zhuan Xin also nodded: "I also agree with the master's opinion, after all, he is our person, and we should treat him like my own." ”

Tang Chao smiled: "The words of the three are very reasonable. In fact, neither the father-in-law nor the generalissimo knew that Li Chenxiang had already planted a lot of eyeliner in An Lushan's army, and once there was any trouble, he would respond quickly. The reason why he said that it doesn't matter whether Ge Shuhan lives or dies is that he wants us to contact and keep it secret, so as not to be discovered by enemy spies. ”

When the three of them heard this, they immediately understood, and then asked: "Sun Xiaozhe keeps provoking us and others, Your Majesty, is it time to attack?" ”

Tang Chao clenched his fists: "Of course it's time to attack!" ”
