Huang Chao heard about the Yinshui chaos, thinking that the Tang Dynasty was already unpopular with the people, and couldn't help but be more powerful, all the way to the front, even breaking Shenzhou and Lizhou. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Along the way, the Tang Dynasty soldiers and civilians all fled, which made Huang Chao even more arrogant.

It's just that after he captured Lizhou, someone gave him a slap in the face.

This person is the judge of Lizhou Huangfu Town, he was a scholar, Jinshi even took the examination for several years, has not been in the first, was learned by Li Xun, Li Xun, the assassin of Lizhou, directly recruited him to the Lizhou Assassin Shi Mansion as a judge, when the city of Lizhou was broken, Li Xun died, and as a civil bureaucrat Huangfu Town escaped from Lizhou, and when he could not find Li Xun, he actually returned to Lizhou, scolded Huang Chao for causing trouble in the world, and was finally beheaded by the angry Huang Jiajun.

This incident reminded Huang Chao that although the Tang Dynasty officialdom was full of twilight, it was not completely unpopular, if Datang was allowed to ease his breath, with his rebels, it would be difficult to be a soldier at all.

Therefore, after thinking about it for a long time, Huang Chao ordered to speed up the march.

Finally, in November of the first year of Guangming, the soldiers arrived in Ruzhou.

Qi Kerang played, Huang Chao called himself the general of Tianbu, and ordered the army:

"Everyone should defend the base, don't commit my front! I will enter the eastern capital, that is, to the capital division, I want to ask for the crime, and I have no precaution!"

As soon as these words came out, the court was shaken.

The Son of Heaven cried bitterly in court, and the ministers were helpless!

The current situation is naturally difficult to compare with the three years of Qianfu, at that time, the world's elite soldiers and strong generals were all in the southeast to suppress thieves, that is, stationed in the eastern capital, even if Huang Chao and Wang Xianzhi joined forces, it was difficult to shake the defense of the eastern capital Luoyang.

But now, three years have passed, many elite soldiers and good generals, all under the command of Gao Yu, he has self-respect, and he is not willing to fight a decisive battle with Huangchao at all, as for the local people and horses in Henan Province, because of the Yinshui Rebellion, they have become completely distrustful of each other, and it is difficult to transfer men and horses to guard Luoyang in a hurry.

In this way, Luoyang is difficult to protect!

If Luoyang falls, Chang'an will be in danger.

Luoyang as the eastern capital of the Tang Dynasty, and the capital Chang'an is very closely linked, the post road that connects the two, is the best section of the post road in the Tang Dynasty, has always been known as the "big road post", the road is flat, wide and abnormal, even enough to parallel eight carts, if the Huangchao rebels attack Chang'an along the road, ten days can reach!

On the entire road, I am afraid that only Tongguan can hold on.

However, the court was skeptical that the Tang army would be able to hold Tongguan.

Tongguan has stood for thousands of years, the terrain is dangerous, it has always been the gateway to Guanzhong, easy to defend and difficult to attack, but the Tang Dynasty has no confidence in the stable defense of Tongguan, there are two reasons.

First of all, in Tongguan after thousands of years of war, the most terrifying fiasco happened a hundred years ago, like a cloud, blocking the confidence of the Tang high-level, that was in the Anshi Rebellion, An Lushan commanded more than 50,000 troops, the Tang Dynasty famous general Ge Shuhan commanded 150,000 troops, staged an offensive and defensive battle in Tongguan, although there are many reasons, what the people's morale is not good, what Xuanzong was deceived and strictly ordered Ge Shuhan to go out, what Ge Shuhan is old and no longer what he was back then, etc., but the result of that battle is that the famous general Ge Shuhan of the Tang Dynasty, in the millennium Tongguan, commanded three times the number of people, and also An Lushan killed a corpse all over the field, for today's Tang Dynasty Hall, they don't want to delve into who is right and wrong in that battle, they don't dare to bet the fate of Datang on Tongguan!

Secondly, this time the Huang Chao soldiers entered Tongguan, claiming to have 150,000 men and horses, although this number is a lie, but at least there must be nearly 100,000 horses, and the Tang Dynasty can't have many guards at all.

Now above Tongguan, in addition to the thousands of soldiers who originally stood firm, there are only less than 10,000 men under Qi Kerang's command, and there are less than 20,000 people at full capacity

To use 20,000 people to guard against the 150,000 of Huangchao, no one has a bottom in their hearts.

However, it is not possible to keep Tongguan.

For today's plan, we can only hope that the eastern capital Luoyang can hold on for a few more days, so as to gain time and let the Tang Dynasty mobilize people.

This court meeting ended in gloom and gloom, but it also came up with a strategy to guard Tongguan.

Tian Lingzi recommended Zhang Chengfan, the general of the Left Shence Army, Wang Shihui, the general of the Infantry Army of the Right Shence Army, and Zhao Ke, the commander of the Left Shence Army.

The Son of Heaven was overjoyed, with Zhang Chengfan as the pioneer envoy of the soldiers and horses and the envoy of the interception of Tongguan, the Wang Shihui as the envoy of the system and the grain of the Guan, and the envoy of Zhao Ke as the sentence.

He also took Tian Lingzi as the left and right Shence Army, the eight towns inside and outside the army, and all the soldiers and horses of the Dao were commanded to recruit envoys, and Yang Fugong, the original flying dragon, was deputy.

He also ordered Zhang Chengfan and others to select more than 2,800 crossbowmen from the left and right Shence armies, and went to Tongguan to garrison on the same day.

And at this time, Huang Chao has already conquered Luoyang!

When the Son of Heaven heard the news, he couldn't help but be shocked, and none of the important ministers around him dared to say a word.

After a long time, the Son of Heaven woke up from the shock, and in one sentence, the important ministers around him were dumbfounded.

"I heard that there is a general Yang Fenglou in the Right Dragon Martial Army, and he has a deep enmity with that Huang Chao, and he even killed Wang Xianzhi in the fifth year of Qianfu, why can't I hear from him when the country is in danger now?"

The important ministers around the Son of Heaven looked at each other one by one, and they didn't know how to interface, but Tian Lingzi was very dissatisfied, and he sent troops at the Shence Army Point, but when he heard that Luoyang had missed, the first thing that came to mind was the person from the Right Dragon Martial Army, which made him very uncomfortable, and he just wanted to speak, but Yang Fugong behind him spoke first.

"Your Majesty, the minister has also heard of this General Yang of the Right Dragon Martial Army, when Huang Chao was violently going north, the minister had planned to invite him to come out, but he heard about General Yang from the General Song Hao Song of the Right Dragon Martial Army.

That Yang Fenglou is talented, especially outstanding in martial arts, in just four years, he has achieved a second-grade Jianghu little master, and it is precisely because of this that he was able to kill Wang Xianzhi, but Wang Xianzhi is a Jianghu grandmaster, and his cultivation can participate in creation, even if General Yang mobilizes all the forces around him to consume Wang Xianzhi, he can only win with difficulty.

According to General Song Wei, although Yang Fenglou killed Wang Xianzhi, he was also injured by his dying counterattack......

When the Son of Heaven heard this, he couldn't help but sigh.

"At this time when the country is in trouble, if there are a few more little masters like General Yang, wouldn't I be able to return a peaceful ...... to my Tang Dynasty as soon as possible?"

The important ministers of the court were speechless, and in the end it was Tian Lingzi who spoke.

"I think that General Yang has indeed made a great contribution to my Tang Dynasty, but he was born in the Right Dragon Army, and has always been responsible for the intelligence work on the rivers and lakes, these dignified battles, I'm afraid there are still some shortcomings, and please trust my Majesty more in my warriors of the Divine Army......

When the Son of Heaven heard this, he sighed again, but he didn't say anything.

He didn't know that Yang Fenglou, who he had never forgotten, was not optimistic about the guards of Tongguan at all, and even began to prepare for the work after the fall of Chang'an...... (To be continued.) )
