Chapter 1336: A Last Battle
Return.
The news that Tang Xuanzong led the army to Luoyang spread throughout Luoyang in an instant.
In addition to the martial arts heroes, there are many ordinary people in Luoyang who are unwilling to leave their hometowns, and when they heard that the emperor came to Luoyang in person, everyone could not hide their excitement.
Different from the people in the rivers and lakes, for ordinary people, the emperor is the most powerful person in the world, with the emperor sitting in Luoyang, at least their life safety can be guaranteed, and they don't have to be burned and plundered by the Anshi army like people in other cities.
But they didn't think that if the emperor was really powerful, how could he lose most of the country and come to Luoyang?
However, whether it was the ordinary people who really hoped that the emperor would come to Luoyang, or the martial arts heroes who had doubts, no one could say anything about Tang Xuanzong's move.
In the dense forest before, Tang Xuanzong's high-sounding reason was said without loopholes, whether he believed it or not, at least on the surface, this was a good and legitimate reason.
Therefore, Tang Xuanzong entered the city.
Luoyang is the eastern capital, and it is also the second largest city in addition to Chang'an.
Once upon a time, he came to Luoyang to inspect the people's situation or play games in the world, but this time, he came to ask for help.
The dignified Emperor of the Tang Dynasty also asked for support, and he was still like a group of people he regarded as his subordinates who recklessly asked for help, not only that, but he had also been threatened by Jian Chen and An An in turn before, completely treating him, the emperor, as nothing, this humiliation was too great.
This is what An Lushan brought him!
Closely protected by the Praetorian Guards, Tang Xuanzong followed Meng Hanran to the City Lord's Mansion, and along the way, his fists hidden in the dragon robe were already clenched white.
"Tell me, what are you going to do?"
After returning to the City Lord's Mansion, only Tang Xuanzong and Gao Lishi were left present, as well as Jian Chen's Meng Hanran and An An, there were no outsiders, Tang Xuanzong tore off the majestic emperor's mask, and the whole person looked a little angry.
An An looked at him very understandingly, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, your great benevolence and righteousness this time is really admired by the people in the rivers and lakes of my generation, I think it is better to spread your benevolence and righteousness to the world, so as to teach the people of the world to know that they have a good emperor, I don't know what to do?"
"No way!"
Tang Xuanzong only frowned, and before he could speak, Gao Lishi was already anxiously on the side: "This matter has to be discussed in detail, if the emperor announces it to the world, then there will be a battle with An Lushan, and there will be no way out!"
He only knew that Jian Chen and they wanted to cooperate with Tang Xuanzong to deal with An Lushan together, and he agreed on this, after all, now that the Central Plains martial arts have been integrated, although the overall strength is still inferior to the Tang army and the An Shi army, it is also the third largest force in addition to these two.
It is certainly feasible to cooperate with Jian Chen and them to use the slightly inferior strength of the two families to fight against the now powerful An Lushan.
But he didn't expect that An An would be so dangerous, and directly expose the emperor to An Lushan's sight, so what way out is there?
The emperor can't have no way out, behind him is the Tang Dynasty, once he retreats, what he loses will be the world!
This is not good, it should not be such a cooperation method to cooperate, it should be considered in the long run, and Colliers cannot find a more stable and feasible method if he does not believe it.
What he doesn't know, however, is that in the long run?
What Jian Chen lacks most now is time, and it is impossible for them to slowly find a safe way to cooperate.
"Last to the odds?"
An An shrugged, looked at Gao Lishi, and said, "General Gao, do you think it's not time to fight now?"
"Where else do you want to go?"
"You ——!"
Colliers was furious and couldn't help but be aggressive.
Jian Chen stepped forward and blocked in front of An An, looked at Gao Lishi coldly and said: "General Gao, there is a limit to people's tolerance, you don't have to challenge my bottom limit again and again!"
When he was in the camp in the dense forest before, Gao Lishi had oppressed An An with momentum, and was forcefully pressed back by Jian Chen, this time, Jian Chen couldn't hold it back, and he didn't want to just press it back.
"Lux, you stand down. ”
Tang Xuanzong finally spoke, waved away Gao Lishi, looked at An An, and said, "You want to lead An Lushan to Luoyang, and then ......"
He made a decapitation gesture, just now Jian Chen had a decapitation tactic rushing out of his mouth, and then An An mentioned it, how could he not know what the other party's plan was.
This is to use him, the dignified emperor, as a bait!
"The emperor is wise!"
An An hugged his fist at him, still smiling.
"How sure are you?"
Tang Xuanzong frowned and asked.
As An An said, now it is actually time to fight against the water, and if he retreats, where can he retreat?
Stay alone in the lonely city and give up all the rest of Datang to An Lushan?
Even if An Lushan is willing to send a Luoyang to him for retirement, then he, the emperor, will already exist in name only, and the Tang Dynasty will also exist in name only, and the foundation of the ancestors will be lost in the hands of his Li Longji!
Rather than that, it's better to give it a go.
Gao Lishi has a saying that is very right, he is not the only one who has an enmity with An Lushan, Jian Chen and An An, especially An An, and An Lushan, aren't the feuds between him and An Lushan also endless?
National hatred and family hatred, in the hearts of most people, family hatred is even higher than national hatred!
"Not sure. ”
An An said honestly: "An Lushan is cunning and suspicious by nature, the emperor knows this, it is not easy to lure him to Luoyang, and for the emperor it is a backwater battle, how can it not be the most important decisive battle for him?"
"So with what I know about him, the more critical the time, the more cautious he will be, to be honest, not too much, but ...... It's just a fight. ”
When saying this, An An's face was resolute, although it was a daughter, from her body, there was a resolute momentum of indomitable and no regrets in death.
"Just fighting?"
Tang Xuanzong repeated silently in a low voice, and said bitterly: "Yes, it's time to fight." ”
"Your Majesty, please think twice!"
Gao Lishi changed color greatly, and he still didn't dare to agree with this decision made by Tang Xuanzong.
"Lux, you don't have to persuade again. ”
Tang Xuanzong waved his hand and said lonely: "I should have fought a long time ago, more than ten years ago...... It's time to spell!"
He glanced at Jian Chen, but saw that Jian Chen was also looking at him.
As early as more than ten years ago, Tang Xuanzong felt that his strength was insufficient, but at that time, An Lushan was actually just as insufficient.
If at that time, he didn't persuade Wu Yuandaoren to endure that breath, with Wu Yuandaoren's ghost soldier domain, and then his own army, it would not be impossible to defeat An Lushan in a bloody battle.
It's a pity that now...... It's all late.
