Yang Yuhuan's eyebrows were crowded together: "Who did Zhao Ziliang kill?" ”

"Kill Cui Guangyuan and Bian Lingcheng! Zhao Ziliang also sent someone to send a piece of music, saying that it was to open the sacrificial flag for the army and boost morale, the rebels have already moved, and the 100,000 army is coming from Luoyang, and Zhao Ziliang is understandable for doing this! ”

Yang Yuhuan was very unhappy and said: "These two people, if you kill them, you will kill them, this Wei Ge can't live if he doesn't do something, it's true!" ”

Xuanzong shook his head and said: "You can't say that, Wei Ge is good on the surface, after all, Zhao Ziliang is suspected of violating the law and discipline, but whether Wei Ge's original intention is to do this, or if there is any other deep meaning, you have to ask himself!" In this matter, I have already issued an order to reprimand Weege, and at this critical period, we must not shake the military spirit of the front-line army! ”

Yang Yuhuan nodded and said, "Yes, Your Majesty is wise in this move!" ”

Xuanzong took a sip of tea and said to Yang Yuhuan: "Yuhuan, it's not a way for us to stay here in Ma Weiyi, it's nothing to want here, the food and accommodation are too simple, I am nothing, and I have suffered when I am young, but you are different, I can't wronged you!" In addition, it is also very inconvenient for the ministers to discuss national affairs, I decided to wait for the results of the battle between Zhao Ziliang and the rebels, if my army wins, I will drive back to Chang'an, if Zhao Ziliang is defeated, I will drive to Xichuan Chengdu Mansion with Yuhuan, what do you think? ”

Yang Yuhuan was a little surprised and said, "Your Majesty has no confidence in Zhao Ziliang?" He's never been defeated, so he shouldn't be this time, right? ”

Xuanzong shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Who can say for sure that there is such a thing as a war?" I don't know the result until after the fight, I don't believe that Zhao Ziliang can't win the rebels, it's really that the rebels are too powerful, and Feng Changqing, Gao Xianzhi and Ge Shuhan and others don't have the opponent of Cui Qianyou, who is a rebel general! ”

Yang Yuhuan had a different opinion, "Your Majesty's opinion, the concubine doesn't dare to agree!" ”

Xuanzong was quite surprised and asked, "Then what do you think?" ”

Yang Yuhuan said with a smile: "Gao Jian doesn't dare, just talk about it casually, among Zhao Ziliang, Feng Changqing, Gao Xianzhi, Ge Shuhan, Cui Qianyou and An Lushan, whether it is military exploits or prestige and influence in the army, Zhao Ziliang is incomparable to others, and in terms of seniority and seniority, Zhao Ziliang and An Lushan are undoubtedly the same generation as Huangfu Weiming and Wang Zhonghei, but Zhao Ziliang is a little younger, and Gao Xianzhi Feng Changqing, Ge Shuhan and Cui Qianyou are a generation lower, if Your Majesty and the court have been suppressing Zhao Ziliang, With Zhao Ziliang's military exploits and qualifications, I am afraid that he will already be in the prime minister, where is he still nesting in the border of the North Court? It is said that Gao Xianzhi was recommended by Zhao Ziliang to Fu Meng Lingjing, Feng Changqing was also recommended by Zhao Ziliang to Gao Xianzhi, and Ge Shuhan, Cui Qianyou, Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi were all students when Zhao Ziliang presided over the martial arts examination, don't your majesty know? Although there are many rebels and horses, Zhao Ziliang's subordinates are all elite warriors, and they do not have the weakness of Feng Changqing, Gao Xianzhi and Ge Shuhan's insufficient combat strength at the beginning!"

Xuanzong listened to Yang Yuhuan's words and said with a smile: "What Yuhuan said is not unreasonable, no matter what, I still have to wait for Zhao Ziliang and the rebel Sun Xiaozhe to decide the victory and defeat before deciding to act!" ”

Yang Yuhuan could only say: "That's the only way!" ”

On July 15, Zhao Ziliang's eastern expeditionary army arrived in Huayin, and the Huayin County Commander led the county officials out of the city to greet him, and Li Sheng returned to Huayin after capturing Feng Ling, and stationed here. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The army camped outside the East City Gate, Zhao Ziliang and Shuai Tent moved to the county seat, and a wealthy family in the city gave up his mansion as the Chinese army of the Eastern Expeditionary Army.

The group walked into this luxurious mansion, Zhao Ziliang kept a lot, nodded and said to a fat and short local tyrant behind him: "It's good here, Liu Yuanwai, you have a heart!" ”

Liu Yuanwai nodded and said: "What is it that the villain can do this little thing for the marshal, the marshal can only stay, if you need to add subordinates and maids, the marshal will arrange it immediately!" ”

"No!" Zhao Ziliang's chief of guard, Nuer, stepped forward and said to Liu Yuanwai: "Now this place is fully taken over by us, and you, your family, and your subordinates are all leaving!" ”

Liu Yuanwai was so frightened by Nur, the giant-like Nur, that he sat on the ground, "Yes, yes, the villain immediately asked all the family members to find another place!" ”

After this episode, everyone came to the living room Zhao Ziliang sat on the main seat and said to Huayin County Commander Che Ling: "There's nothing wrong here, Che County Order, you can go back first, if there is anything, Ben Shuai will send someone to find you!" ”

"That'······ The lower official waited for a long time and said goodbye! ”

Zhao Ziliang took a sip of tea from the teacup handed over by his own soldiers, and instructed Zhao Ting: "Inform the generals and colonies of all ministries to come here in an hour to discuss matters!" ”

"No!"

After Zhao Ziliang's personal soldiers, generals and other generals arranged all the headquarters of the Chinese army, just an hour later, the generals of the various departments came here one after another.

After Zhao Ziliang dealt with a few official documents, he saw that the generals were almost all here, so he said: "Everyone is here, let's discuss it now, Wang Can, where is the rebel Sun Xiaozhe's department now?" ”

Wang Can said: "They have arrived near Lingbao, and they will arrive at Tongguan in only three or five days, according to their current marching speed, the last general thinks that they should rest in Tongguan for a few days before leaving the pass and marching west!" ”

Zhao Ziliang nodded, and said, "Is there any movement of the rebels in other places?" ”

"The battlefield on the northern front has not changed much, it is still a stalemate, Li Guangbi's troops in the middle of the road are not strong enough, and they are attacked by Shi Siming and Cai Xide in the north and south, and the battle has been lost, and they have now retreated to Jingjing Pass, but the loss of soldiers is not large!"

Zhao Ziliang thought for a while and said to Wang Can: "Give Li Guangbi an order, it is not advisable to take the initiative to attack if you are not sure, if the rebels storm Jingjing Pass, or enter Hedong from other channels, they can really not hold it, you can retreat to the northern capital (Taiyuan), and use the northern capital to defend against the enemy!" In addition, scouts were sent to keep an eye on Sun Xiaozhe's rebel army day and night, and once they found out that they were coming out of Tongguan, they would quickly report it! ”

Taiyuan City is the northern capital of the Tang Dynasty, is the place where Li Tang started, the city wall here is tall and reinforced, the grain and grass are stored sufficiently, and the ordnance and materials of the city are countless, as long as the defenders are determined and the defenders have enough talents, the attacking enemy army can not capture Taiyuan in a short period of time even if it is more than 20 more than the defenders.

Wang Can promised: "No! ”

Zhao Ziliang looked at the map and asked, "How many defenders do I have in Yongfeng Cang now?" Who is the Keeper? ”

Li Sheng stood up and replied: "1,800 people, the original guard general is called Shi Da Niu, when our army went, he opened the fort gate and surrendered to cooperate with us to eliminate the rebels belonging to An Lushan, I saw that this person was still loyal and brave, so I still let him be the general of Yongfeng Cang, and sent Wu Yicheng to assist!" ”

Zhao Ziliang touched his chin and stared at the map, the closest cities to Tongguan in the Guanzhong area are Huayin and Feng Ling, and on the south bank of Weishui between Huayin and Feng Ling, near the Yellow River, there is Yongfeng Cang, although it is not a city, but its defense is not weak, and it can also garrison troops.

Next, Zhao Ziliang deployed defense, reconnaissance, sentry, patrol and other tasks, and the generals left one by one after receiving the order.

On July 18, the rebel Sun Xiaozhe arrived at Tongguan, and Zhao Ziliang immediately ordered the whole army to prepare to send troops to meet the enemy, and reported the movements of the rebels several times a day.

On July 19, the rebel Sun Xiaozhe's troops left Tongguan and attacked in the direction of Huayin.

"Marshal, Sun Xiaozhe's 100,000 troops left the pass early this morning, came westward, and went straight to Huayin, according to their marching speed, they can arrive at Huayin City at noon the day after tomorrow at the latest!" Wang Can hurriedly walked into the tent and reported to Zhao Ziliang.

Zhao Ziliang turned around and said, "It's time for a big battle!" Someone, go and inform Li Sheng to come and see me! ”

After receiving the notice, Li Sheng quickly rushed over, "Dashuai! ”

Zhao Ziliang nodded: "The rebels are out of the customs, and the direction of attack is ours!" According to their marching speed, we can arrive at Huayin City at noon the day after tomorrow, we can't sit still, we must take the initiative to attack the enemy, I want you to take 5,000 Jing to ride away Yongfeng Cang along the south bank of Weishui to the Yellow River to bypass the rebel rear, in order to avoid people's eyes, set off late at night today, about tomorrow after noon, the main force of our army will fight with the rebels fifty miles east of Huayin, and when the main force of our army fights with the rebels, you lead people to rush out of the enemy's back, and cooperate with the main force to defeat Sun Xiaozhe's department in one fell swoop! ”

Zhao Ziliang has already considered it carefully, the rebel army of 100,000 is coming with great momentum, and it is not easy to send a partial division to attack his Beiting army from the flank or detour to the rear, the south is Qinling, and the north is Weishui and Yongfengcang, if the rebels send a partial division, they can only go to the north, so they will be discovered by the sentinels of Yongfengcang, and the rebels can only attack head-on, but the Beiting Army is different, the Huayin range is now the sphere of influence of the Beiting Army, and it is completely possible to quietly send a partial division along the Weishui to the east to hide by the Yellow River, and then kill it from the rear of the rebels.

Li Sheng clenched his fists and agreed: "The last general will take the order!" ”

Zhao Ziliang patted Li Sheng on the shoulder and said: "My side will control the marching speed of the army, so that our army will engage the enemy army fifty miles east of Huayin tomorrow afternoon, you must pinch the time to launch an attack, not too early, not too late!" ”

"The last general understands!"

Then Zhao Ziliang convened the generals to discuss the matter of sending troops to meet the enemy, and assigned tasks to the generals, this time Zhao Ziliang decided to leave only a small number of men and horses to stay in Huayin, except for the thousands of people and horses taken away by the towns and counties in Guanzhong and Li Sheng, he still had 30,000 people in his hands, and this time they were all taken away, with 30,000 against the rebels 100,000.

The Great War is coming, the entire Huayin City is unprecedentedly tense, this battle can be described as a battle that determines the fate of the Tang Dynasty, once the Beiting Army is defeated, the imperial court will have to flee to Xichuan or Lingwu, and the great cause of counterinsurgency will become far away.
