No matter how stupid Gao Xianzhi was, he already understood that Li Longji already knew his lies, but he just forbears it for the time being, and he doesn't dare to say it anymore at the moment.

When the other generals saw Li Longji's expression, they knew that there was no possibility of slandering Guo Ziyi, but they were no longer silent.

Guo Ziyi returned to the army and met with Guo Ai Chai Rong and others, and Gu said some things in the Tang Dynasty army, but after repaying Li Longji, he wanted to defect to the Tang Dynasty, but he did not say this.

Naturally, he couldn't tell Li Longji that this was his agreement with the Tang Dynasty. After all, the more people know about such a thing, the more dangerous it is for you.

He understands that his current situation is delicate enough.

……

A few days later, Zhuan Xin led an army of 200,000 from Yangping Pass to Xuzhou; At the same time, Shi Siming and Tian Chengsi also led an army of 400,000 and arrived in Xuzhou.

As a result, the army besieging Xuzhou doubled compared to before, and the Tang Dynasty and An Lushan agreed to attack the defenders of Xuzhou in turn in the morning and evening, which made Li Longji overwhelmed.

Fortunately, the city walls of Xuzhou are strong, and the defenders in the city are sufficient, reaching one million, and Li Longji has many generals, so he can hold Xuzhou.

However, the supply of Li Longji's army could only rely on the grain accumulated in the city, because it could not be brought in from outside, and there was only ten days' worth of grain and grass in the city.

Even if the war horse is killed and eaten, it is only to support it for a few more days, and it is not a long-term strategy at all, and opening up the grain road has become the key to the survival of Xuzhou.

……

In Xuzhou City, during the short interval of attacks, Li Longji gathered all the generals under his command together, and his face was solemn.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you have all seen that whether Xuzhou can hold or not is not due to the lack of troops and generals, but to the grain and grass. Now, with only ten days' bread in the city, and the urgency of raising food, I now announce a decision. That is, to open up a second battlefield. ”

"Second battlefield?" The eyes of all the generals lit up. Being besieged in the city of Xuzhou all day long, and the shortage of materials has made these generals tired of it.

"Yes. The generals led the army outside to loot grain and grass, and then stationed in the county near Xuzhou, waiting for orders, and there must be no mistakes. ”

"Yes." All the generals breathed a deep sigh in their hearts, it was long overdue.

At the moment, Guo Ziyi was appointed as the supreme commander of the second battlefield, and his generals included Yu Chaoen, Bu Gu Huaien, Wang Sili, Feng Changqing, and Niu Xianke, leading 600,000 soldiers and horses, leaving only 40,000 cavalry of Prince Xuanzan in the city to defend the city, and the remaining 400,000 were infantry.

"Generalissimo!" Li Longji pressed Guo Ziyi's shoulder with his hand, and there was a moist meaning in his eyes: "The survival of Xuzhou is on the general, after you lead the army out, first find a foothold outside Xuzhou City, and then seize the grain and grass in nearby prefectures and counties, first stabilize the army's heart, and then, be sure to get in touch with the spirit side as soon as possible, meet with General Li Guangbi as soon as possible, and bring a large amount of grain and grass to Xuzhou." You know, even if there is a shortage of 600,000 troops, but the grain and grass in Xuzhou City are not enough for three months, you will not let me down? ”

Ordinary!

Guo Ziyi burst into tears and knelt down: "Your Majesty is relieved, but let me Guo Ziyi still have a breath of air, and he must help His Majesty open up a big piece of land, and the grain and grass are worry-free, Weichen is just worried, the number of troops in the city has decreased sharply, how to resist the attack of the Tang Dynasty and An Lushan?" ”

Li Longji snorted and slapped the Heavenly Sword: "Generalissimo, don't worry! There are still 400,000 soldiers and horses in my city, including Gao Xianzhi, Prince Xuanzan, Niu Shengyu, Yang Xuanlin, these generals, An Lushan and the Tang Dynasty are powerful, but they can't break through the strong city, and we now have three months of grain and grass, and the army is stable, just waiting for your good news. ”

Guo Ziyi accepted Li Longji's canonization in front of the temporary worship platform, and officially became the generalissimo Guo Ziyi, commanding 600,000 soldiers and horses, and opening up the second battlefield.

Before leaving the city gate, Guo Ziyi gathered the generals at the place where An Lushan was loyal to his subordinates, and his expression was cold: "Generals, now is the time for us to die for Your Majesty, if there are those who do not obey orders, down to the soldiers, as for the generals, the law is ruthless, I hope you will obey the dispatch and there must be no objections, otherwise, this is the end!" ”

Bang!

Guo Ziyi used his internal strength and punched a wall behind him.

In the midst of the loud bang, the incomparably hard earthen wall was actually punched out of a hole by his fist, and the dust was flying.

Yu Chaoen was taken aback: this person's martial arts had actually reached the point where it was extremely deep in the middle of the transformation realm.

This punch, in the eyes of a layman, pierced the earthen wall with his fist, but an expert like Yu Chaoen knew that Guo Ziyi mainly relied on a dark force.

Moreover, this dark energy is very strong, and the fist has not yet arrived, but it has already caused powerful damage to the earthen wall.

When Guo Ziyi's real fist hit, there was a strong resonance-like shock, which knocked through a big hole in the earthen wall.

But in the eyes of people who don't understand this Zeng boxing theory, they think that Guo Ziyi is a god.

How can a fist made of flesh and blood be more powerful than a fist of steel.

In fact, needless to say, all soldiers know that even an iron fist may not be able to penetrate a wall of earth with one punch.

Among the many generals sent to him by Li Longji, only Yu Chaoen and Wang Sili were dissatisfied with him in their hearts, because the original official titles were above Guo Ziyi, and now Li Longji actually wants Guo Ziyi to be the generalissimo, which is tantamount to slapping them in the face.

But when they saw Guo Ziyi's martial arts, they were completely dead.

Although Guo Ziyi may not be able to kill them in a short period of time, it is certain that a one-on-one fight will definitely die in his hands in the end.

Yu Chaoen and Wang Sili, although their martial arts are powerful, they are only characters in the early stage of the transformation realm, and Guo Ziyi is already a very deep master in the middle stage of the transformation realm.

"Next, the commander will assign the matter of leading the troops, Guo Ai, Chai Rong, and come out of the ranks."

The two of them answered.

"This marshal appoints you two as the generalissimo's sword and axe hand executive officer, if there is any nonsense, kill! If anyone disrespects military law, kill! If there is a retreat to the latter, kill! ”

"Yes, Generalissimo!" The faces of the two of them showed joy. They have been suppressed under the Li family for so long, and now they can finally be regarded as raising their eyebrows.

At that moment, Guo Ziyi's voice shouted: "After the commanders of the various armies lead the army out of the city, according to His Majesty's wishes, first occupy the stronghold, then replenish the supplies, and wait for the order." The general of the First Army, Yu Chaoen, took Shangqiu; The second team general, Wang Sili, Qiyan City; The third team general Feng Changqing took Nanyang; The fourth team of generals, Niu Xianke, took Zhengzhou; The fifth team general Bu Gu Huai'en, take Puyang, and the marshal personally led the army to take Kaifeng. A total of six teams of men, each with 100,000 people, will follow the commander to attack the city gate, and if there is any situation, he must report to the Generalissimo's Palace, do you understand? ”

"Understood." The hearts of the five generals breathed a sigh of relief, Guo Ziyi did not swallow the soldiers under each of them, and he himself only led 100,000 troops.

As long as the command of the army is in hand, they are very sure in their hearts.

Whether they surrender or continue to work for Li Longji, they have the capital. For these battle-hardened generals, having no troops in their hands is more uncomfortable than anything else.

At the moment, Guo Ziyi also emphasized some key points of marching and storming, as well as methods of communication, etc., which must be taken into account when marching and fighting.

When the evening comes!

Guo Ziyi ordered Yu Chao to take the lead in the En Department, and after Bu Gu Huai'en Palace, he was in the middle of the army, wrapped the horseshoe cloth and picked the bell, and quietly went out of the north gate to take the An Shouzhong Department.

This wave of attacks just now has just been completed, and according to the rotational attack lineup agreed between An Lushan and the Tang Dynasty, it is time for An Shouzhong to rest.

"Ahh The gates of the city were suddenly opened, and thousands of troops rushed out with shouts, and the fish sent a spear at the envoy, and the resistors broke up one after another, and actually kicked him away.

In this battle, because Guo Ziyi and others were well prepared, coupled with surprise, An Shouzhong jumped up in a panic, put on his armor, and jumped out to meet him, but it was Guo Ziyi who met him at that time.

Under his elusive marksmanship, he almost lost his life, but fortunately, three hundred dead soldiers under his command fought desperately to save their lives, and only one life was saved.

was led by Guo Ziyi to the army, easily killed through the camp and broke through.

By the time An Lushan led the army to come to the rescue, Guo Ziyi and the others had already gone far away.

In this battle, the time was extremely short, and An Shouzhong was not given a chance to come back to his senses at all, losing tens of thousands of men and horses, and Guo Ziyi directly killed the camp, which can be said to be a very unjust defeat.

In fact, no matter which side Guo Ziyi chooses to break through, with the superior forces in his hands at this time, the generals in the area will not be able to resist.

……

In the Tang Dynasty tent, Sheva and the others showed surprise on their faces.

Wolf Zhengxuan was very puzzled: "Your Majesty, Xuzhou now only has 400,000 soldiers and horses, it is an excellent time for us to take it in one fell swoop, why should we retreat?" ”

The Tang Dynasty actually wanted to withdraw its troops, which made all the generals feel pity.

Tang Chao's expression was extremely calm: "You don't know anything. Sometimes, not attacking is equivalent to attacking, and attacking is not attacking. ”

"Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?" Sheva asked.

"Everyone, you must know that Guo Ziyi led his troops out, and there were only 400,000 defenders in the city, did you think that you could capture Xuzhou one day?"

"Isn't it?" Wolf Zhengxuan said.

"Definitely. In my opinion, Gao Xianzhi is good at leading troops, and his soldiers are brave, and the cavalry of Prince Xuanzan is even more fierce, and there are Niu Shengyu and Yang Xuanlin in the city, these fierce generals, Li Longji leans on the sword in hand, and supports the four gates at any time, although our troops are several times that of him, and they are more elite than him, but the strong city is the strong city, I and An Lushan, have lost hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses before and after, but still failed to take Xuzhou, but the geographical advantage is not as good as the people. ”

"I know, Your Majesty doesn't want to take Xuzhou, he just wants to change his way." Sheva suddenly laughed knowingly.
