Chapter 25: Trapping the Camp Leader

The Khitan Great Khan said: "Today, if the virtuous live there, if you intend to chase the Central Plains, I will definitely send troops to help." ”

Tang Zhangwei said: "If the Great Khan is interesting, we can join forces to destroy Silla, and now Silla has been divided into three forces, if we send troops, then Silla's Xiankang King Kim Hyun will not be able to control the nobles in the country at all." We might as well send troops to destroy their country and capture their three thousand miles of rivers and mountains. ”

The Khitan Great Khan said: "Silla is mountainous, the land is barren, and it is useless to take it. ”

Tang Zhangwei arched his hand and said: "Since the Great Khan is not interested, I didn't say it." ”

The Khitan Great Khan said: "Under our banner, there is a tribe called Jurchen. The Jurchen savages, who did not practice kinghood, took animal skin boats to Fusang many times to plunder. These Jurchens said that Fusang is rich and has a lot of gold, so it is better for us to send troops together to occupy Fusang. ”

Tang Zhangwei got up and said, "Dashan, I am willing to send troops to Fusang!" ”

After that, the two sides discussed and sent troops to Fusang together.

After discussing these, Tang Zhangwei led 30,000 troops back to Zhenhai, and the news that the Tang Huainan Army had conquered the Bohai State shocked the Tang people and surprised the Tang Dynasty emperor Tang Xizong in Shu.

Tang Zhangwei left Yu Feiyan and Bai Cunxiao in his hometown in the Bohai Sea, although he agreed with the Khitan Great Khan to send troops together.

However, the counterinsurgency process of the Tang Dynasty forced Tang Zhangwei to lead his troops back to Jiangnan.

The situation in the Tang Dynasty gradually developed in a good direction, and Huang Chao transferred the army to the Central Plains and Guanzhong to fight a decisive battle with the Tang army.

Youzhou, Weibo, and Chengde all restored the rule of the Tang Dynasty, because the local Jiedu made the capital anyway.

Li Keyong became more and more brave on the battlefield of counterinsurgency, and the Shatuo cavalry finally established a great reputation.

Yiwu Zhenjiedu made Wang Chucun, Hezhong Jiedu made Wang Chongrong and other actively organized a blow to Huangchao, and Li Keyong of Hedong Taiyuan of Shatuo tribe repeatedly defeated Huangchao's Daqi army with the courage of cavalry.

Zheng Jin, who was appointed by the Emperor of the Imperial Committee to make Zheng Jin, who was in charge of the Fengxiang Festival of the capital on all sides of the capital, got the power to "engage in it cheaply", and actively organized the siege of Huangchao in Chang'an.

Huang Chao said to his younger brother infantry commander Huang Kui: "Why does this old man Zheng always bite me. ”

Huang Kui said: "This old man, if he wants to be the prime minister again, he is going crazy. ”

Huang Chao said: "Is it okay for Zhu Wen to guard the same state now?" ”

Huang said: "This person has a backbone in the back of his head, and I don't think it's so reliable. ”

Huang Chao looked up to the sky and sighed, "I have no one to use. ”

Huang Kuo said: "If Tang Zhangwei is on His Majesty's side, it will be good." ”

Huang Chao said: "This person has the world in mind and will not be used by me." ”

In Chang'an City, there is no longer peace, and many people of the Tang Dynasty secretly communicate with the Tang Army.

The eunuch Lu Zhiyi of the Tang Dynasty organized an armed force of more than 500 people, stationed in Sagashan outside the city, and often infiltrated Chang'an to harass him. Many people were so frightened by the Tang soldiers who infiltrated Chang'an and destroyed them that they couldn't sleep peacefully.

After Huang Chao went to the court, he also personally led the army to eliminate those spies and die-hard elements of the Tang Dynasty. Because the spies of the Tang Dynasty were familiar with the structure and topography of Chang'an City, the Qing Dynasty of the Great Qi Dynasty could not always be completely suppressed.

Huang Chao lamented: "We can't find peace in Chang'an City. ”

Shang Rang, the prime minister of Daqi, said: "It's okay, as long as we have more soldiers and horses, we will naturally have no worries." ”

Huang Kui said: "The prime minister's words are not right, I think we should incite discord within the small court of the Tang Dynasty at the same time as sending troops, I heard that Tian Lingzi, the favorite eunuch of the Tang Dynasty, is full of suspicion of the heroes of the world, we just need to spread some rumors, we can let them kill each other." ”

Huang Chao was overjoyed and said, "This is very good! ”

However, before Huang Chao's spies were dispatched, Cheng Zongchu, the envoy of the Jingyuan Festival of the Tang Dynasty, and Tang Hongfu, the general of the Tang Dynasty, led an army of 20,000 to attack Chang'an with the cooperation of the eunuchs Lu Zhiyi and Cao Zhiyi.

At first, Huang Chao thought that there were many soldiers and horses in the Tang Dynasty, and he had to retire from the army.

When he found out that Wang Xingyu, the envoy of the Suining Festival, and Wang Chongrong, the envoy of the Hezhong Festival, and Li Keyong and others did not come with him, he was overjoyed. Huang Chao immediately ordered Shang Rang, and his nephew Huang Hao to lead the army to counterattack.

That night, the two sides were in a scuffle, and in the battle, Huang Chao tried to defeat the Tang army. Ordering his subordinates to massacre the people and burn their houses, Huang Chao said: "I am kind to the people of Chang'an, such villains, actually colluded with the Tang army to come to harm me, not killing is not enough to appease my hatred." ”

Huang Chao had a large number of soldiers, with 150,000 male soldiers, while the Tang army only had 23,000 men.

The arson army slaughtered the people and burned the houses, Huang Chao said: "I have all kinds of grace to the people of Chang'an, such villains, actually colluded with the Tang army to come to harm me, not killing is not enough to appease my hatred." ”

Huang Chao had a large number of soldiers, with 150,000 male soldiers, while the Tang army only had 23,000 men.

The eunuch Lu Zhiyi of the Tang Dynasty said to Cheng Zongchu, the envoy of Jingyuan Jiedu: "Lord Cheng Zongchu, there are many thieves in the Yellow Nest, let's dodge first!" ”

Cheng Zongchu said: "As soon as we leave, the Yellow Nest will harm my people again, and I can't go." ”

The soldiers and horses of the eunuch Cao Zhiyi's troops could not resist Zhao Zhang, the general of the Qi army in Huangchao, and he brought troops from Huazhou and killed Tang Hongfu, the general of the Tang Dynasty, in the melee.

At that time, the soldiers of the Tang Army fought bravely to kill the enemy, but there were few soldiers, and 23,000 soldiers, except for more than 1,000 people led by two eunuchs, were all killed.

At this time, Huang Chao sent spies to infiltrate Shu and spread rumors everywhere, saying: "Tang Dynasty general Tang Zhangwei wants to lead troops into Shuzhong, and he has accepted Huang Chao's surrender and appointed himself as the king of Shuzhong." ”

At the same time, Huang Chao's spies also spread rumors: "The eunuch Lu Zhiyi of the Tang Dynasty said that I used a little trick and led the people to enter Chang'an to fight Emperor Qi repeatedly, so that the armies of the Tang Dynasty could have the great merit of recovering Chang'an. ”

Tang Xizong, the son of polo, was panicked and asked Tian Lingzi: "Father, does this Tang Zhangweiguo have any objections?" ”

Tian Lingzi said: "People's hearts are unpredictable, and it is unknown whether this Tang Zhangwei has objections. ”

Polo Emperor Tang Xizong said: "A yellow nest will give us a headache, and what can we do with a Tang Zhangwei?" ”

Tian Lingzi said: "Today's strategy is to reward Tang Zhangwei with a thick seal and marry him with the daughter of the Tang Dynasty." and issued a secret decree to the feudal towns of the world, so that they could destroy the Yellow Nest as soon as possible. ”

Tang Xizong said: "My daughter is still young and cannot contribute to the country. ”
