After working hard for so long, he is still just an insignificant chess piece. (Please remember when reading the novel) forward, backward, and even life and death are not in his control. Even though he knows that what Zhang Tongru said is true, Sun Xiaozhe still cannot accept his fate willingly.
He pondered for a long time, sighed, and retorted faintly: "Your Majesty, your Majesty has great blessings. Naturally, this time he can turn misfortunes into good fortune and turn disasters into good fortune. Moreover, although the old thief Yan Zhuang is not the same as Sun,
Harmony, but we should also see that this is about the battle for Chang'an City, involving the rise and fall of the An and Li families. If Chang'an is taken away by the Anxi army, how will the world view it?
Yan?!"
"If His Majesty was in good health, of course he would not allow such a thing to happen!" Zhang Tongru grinned, his face full of bitterness, "But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Prime Minister Yan may not have the courage of His Majesty the Shengwu Emperor. Nowadays,
Tang generals Zhang Xun and Xu Yuan defended Suiyang, holding back Linghu Chao's 120,000 troops, preventing them from advancing any further. They could only watch helplessly as the wealth from Huainan and Jiangnan was continuously transported to Shu.
and then continuously transferred to the hands of various soldiers and horses of the remnant Tang Dynasty. Since our dynasty went south, although we have received a lot of money and food from the treasury of various governments, we have been wasting it day by day in all directions, and slowly it has become
It’s all in vain…”
Zhang Tongru spoke very slowly, as if he was afraid that Sun Xiaozhe would not be able to keep up with his thoughts. Test text watermark 8. The latter listened to every word in his ears, and the feeling in his heart became increasingly desolate.
When the Yan Kingdom went south last year, they burned, killed, and looted all the way, turning everything they passed into ruins. At that time, everyone only felt happy and did not seriously think about the adverse effects this would have on themselves. Now the war situation is
Falling into a stalemate, retribution will appear bit by bit.
The absence of cities means that there is no business tax. The absence of farms means that there is no stable recruitment channel for military rations. Although the Yan Kingdom initially seized a lot of property from the warehouses of local governments, it could give each soldier a share.
One share is equivalent to seven or eighty-eight dollars spent. Now that the front lines in various places cannot continue to advance for a long time, new captures cannot be guaranteed, and there are no profits from the old conquered areas, life will inevitably become more and more embarrassing day by day.
Standing in Sun Xiaozhe's position, he clearly knew that except for himself and Shi Siming, the various princes in the Yan Kingdom who were able to be self-sufficient, the rest had to rely on Luoyang's supply to continue to maintain their status. And in Luoyang City,
Money and food are gradually being depleted. Under such circumstances, only people with a big mind and courage will continue to adhere to the past strategy, with the top priority of completely eradicating the remnants of the Tang Dynasty and capturing Li Longji and his son.
The purpose is to use Lingwu and Shuzhong as the focus of the attack. Test text watermark 4. If you change to someone with a slightly worse vision, I am afraid that you have to change your approach and focus your strategy on Huainan and Jiangnan. You must first completely solve the food and clothing problem.
It's serious.
Neither An Qingxu nor Yan Zhuang had the same vision and ambition as Emperor Shengwu An Lushan. It was foreseeable that if His Majesty Emperor Shengwu went westward, Chang'an City would probably be abandoned and it would be a foregone conclusion.
At least, it will no longer be regarded as the focus of competition with Can Tang.
"To be honest, if Zhang were replaced in the position of Prime Minister, it would be difficult to choose?!" Zhang Tongru added superfluously for fear that Sun Xiaozhe had misunderstood what he meant.
"Alas!" Sun Xiaozhe responded with a long sigh, and then remained silent for a long time.
Suiyang, Chang'an, thinking about the current situation, a chess game seemed to appear in front of his eyes. Two cities, two disaster points. Although the sizes are different, the degree of solidity is also different. Their importance to the overall situation is difficult to
It is clear who is in charge and who is second. If the Yan Kingdom captures Suiyang before the Tang army accumulates counterattack force, it can march straight into the Jianghuai counties, completely cutting off the tax sources of the remnant Tang Dynasty, and draining the bottom of the cauldron. Test text watermark 4. And in case of Chang'an City
If Suiyang fell into the hands of the Anxi Army before it was conquered, it meant that the fate of the Yan Kingdom was over, and the remnant Tang forces everywhere would be greatly encouraged and take advantage of the situation to advance vigorously.
This game of chess cannot be understood by those who have a long-term vision, and by those who do not have ambitions for the world. But His Majesty Emperor Shengwu was too ill to stand up again! "God, you can't be so unfair!" The Li family and his son
No matter how hard it is, it is up to them. His Majesty Emperor Shengwu just feels a little sick, so..." Thinking about the increasingly desperate future, Sun Xiaozhe couldn't help but look up to the sky and scream, "Ah - ah -
—”
"Commander, Commander!" Zhang Tongru was frightened and hurriedly jumped forward and reached out to pat Sun Xiaozhe on the back. "Commander, please don't do this. You are the courage of an army. Any move you make will bring unexpected results."
s consequence!"
"Ahhhh——!" "Ahhhh——!" Sun Xiaozhe shouted hoarsely a few more times, until he called in all the guards outside the door, he closed his mouth angrily. "So what, could it be me?
No matter how sad I feel, I can only hold it in! Damn it, the worst I can do is to stop being the Jiedushi of Xijing Road. Anyone who wants to be the governor will do it. I will go back to the fortress and find a deserted place to let sheep and hunt.
Go, so as not to hold your breath watching the situation every day..."
"Ahhhh——!"
"Ahhhh——!"
Before he could finish his complaint, a hoarse shout suddenly came from outside. Test text watermark 2. It was like an echo just now, full of helplessness and unwillingness.
"Who is imitating me?" Sun Xiaozhe was furious, pushed Zhang Tongru aside, and strode out the door. After only three or five steps, several more hoarse shouts came, like a cold wind, filling everyone's eyes.
Personal ears.
Ahhhh——!” “Ahhhh——!” “Uuuuuuuuu——” “Mom——” In an instant, cries, shouts, and desperate screams resounded throughout the city.
Sun Xiaozhe was used to seeing wind and waves, and his hair stood on end. He rushed back to the house in three steps and took a sword from the weapon rack in his hand. "What's going on? Who is on duty tonight? Give him to me quickly."
Call!"
"Jiang Fang!" The soldiers quickly reported the name of a general. Then they drew their swords and protected Sun Xiaozhe tightly. The shouts and wails outside were getting louder and louder.
The voice was full of fear, and the voice was full of despair. Sun Xiaozhe's face became colder and colder, paler and whiter, as white as the snow in the corner of the wall in winter.
Looking at Zhang Tongru, who was left behind in Xijing, he was so frightened that he couldn't move. Test text watermark 5. A pair of hands pressed softly on the pillar and murmured: "Anxi Army, Anxi Army has entered the city. Anxi Army
Entering the city! It’s over, it’s over, the man named Wang kills people like crazy, we’ll fall into his hands tonight..."
"The Anxi Army has entered the city, the Anxi Army has entered the city!" As if to verify Zhang Tongru's inference, the same desperate and fearful voice came from outside the camp. Hearing the cry, the guards made an immediate decision and surrounded them.
Sun Xiaozhe rushed out. Sun Xiaozhe was pushed and stumbled. After struggling several times, he got rid of the control of the guards. He raised his knife and shouted angrily: "Why panic? Why panic? If the Anxi army advances,
After entering the city, can you protect me and escape with just the few of you? Stand still where I am and don’t push me anymore. If anyone dares to pull or pull at me again, I will chop him down!"
"Commander..." The guards' good intentions were misunderstood, and they stopped aggrievedly. Sun Xiaozhe suppressed the panic in his heart, pricked up his ears and listened for a while. With many years of guidance,
With his military experience, he firmly believed that the situation outside was not as bad as everyone thought. He raised his sword and shouted an order: "Liu Fu, Zhang Shun, Du Yuan, Li Ge, the four of you, each go to the commander's case to get a command arrow.
, go to patrol the whole city. Order the soldiers of each battalion that no one is allowed to act rashly before receiving the order from the commander. Test text watermark 5. Cui Hu, you also go with a command arrow to recruit Jiang who is on duty tonight.
Fang, ordered him to lead his troops to patrol along the streets. If they encounter robbers, they should be beheaded on the spot. Xu Qi, take a command arrow and go and kill Ashina Congli, An Shouzhong, Zhang Zhongzhi, Lu Yu and others.
When called, tell them that the commander has urgent official business and needs to discuss it with them. Let them rush to the Jiedushi camp immediately no matter how many things they have at hand. If they fail after three calls, military law will be engaged!"
"No!" When the guards saw their commander being so calm, the panic in their hearts immediately eased for the most part. They accepted the order with their hands and hurried away with the command arrows in hand.
"Damn it! A bunch of trash! They should all be castrated and go plowing the fields." Sun Xiaozhe raised his sword and made a false strike, and cursed loudly. He didn't know whether he was scolding An Qingxu, Yan Zhuang and others who were far away in Luoyang, or he was scolding the generals under his command.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Tongru's face suddenly turned purple. He used his arms several times, tremblingly left the pillar, bowed to Sun Xiaozhe and apologized, "Subordinate, I just lost my composure. Please,
Please don’t blame me, Commander!"
"It's none of your business!" Sun Xiaozhe swung his sword impatiently. "It can't be that the Anxi Army has entered the city, it's more likely that they're blowing up the camp! A group of cowards who were scared out of their wits by just a few words. Test the text watermark
5. I am really embarrassed by His Majesty Emperor Shengwu. When I find out whose subordinate is responsible for the trouble, I must kill him!"
"The Anxi Army has not entered the city? Is it really just a camp roar?! How did the commander know this?" Zhang Tongru took a few trembling steps forward and asked tentatively. When it comes to his ability to lead troops in battle, he is far behind Sun Xiaozhe.
.But he is a person who has self-awareness and never does anything to make someone look fat.
"It must be Yingxiao!" Sun Xiaozhe stretched out his hand and pulled Zhang Tongru to a window. He pushed it open and pointed the tip of his knife at the dark sky outside. "Listen to the sounds outside. They are chaotic and there is no pattern at all.
If the Anxi Army entered the city, they would definitely attack us from the outside in, along the streets. Look at those fires, one in the east and one in the west, without any rules. If it was the Anxi Army who set it off, then
How far should their forces be dispersed? Aren't they afraid that I will defeat them one by one?"
At this moment, the sky outside was not yet completely dark. Zhang Tongru followed the tip of Sun Xiaozhe's knife and saw several plumes of thick smoke floating straight into the night sky. Although the momentum seemed very loud, the location was very scattered and obvious.
It was not the work of the army. He immediately became convinced and bravely listened to the sounds around him. It was indeed as described by Sun Xiaozhe, chaotic and irregular, and there was no sign of approaching Jiedushi's camp.
.Test text watermark 6.
"Brothers are scattered all over the city. A roar in one place will not affect the whole city!!" Seeing Zhang Tongru's expression gradually calming down, Sun Xiaoru frowned and added, "There should be some unscrupulous people taking advantage of the situation, Jiang Fang.
, he’s just a piece of trash. It’s been so long and he hasn’t even sent any accurate news!”
"Maybe, maybe General Jiang thinks that the situation is still under his control. He doesn't want the commander to worry!" Zhang Tongru took the initiative to excuse Jiang Fang based on the principle of being kind to others.
"Humph!" Sun Xiaozhe snorted, noncommittal. The two of them continued to wait patiently, from when the sky just darkened until it was completely dark, and they did not wait or wait for the report from the general on duty, Jiang Fang. Instead, they were sent to Xiyuan.
An Shouzhong, who was nearby to supervise the warriors of the tribes, came over covered in blood. As soon as he entered the door, he lay down on the ground and cried loudly: "Commander, Ashina followed the courtesy, Ashina followed the courtesy and colluded with the Anxi army."
,Rebellion, rebellion!”
"Rebellion?!" The knife in Sun Xiaozhe's hand trembled a few times, and he forced himself to calm down, "How do you know he rebelled? He rebelled, why didn't you arrest him?!"
"General, I didn't expect him to take action now. Test text watermark 4. General, I was ordered to move the station, and only half of the time, Ashina rushed out with his people.
First, we injured the last general, then seized the warehouse and stables in Xiyuan, and went straight to the west gate!"
"Trash!" Sun Xiaozhe was so angry that he even considered killing An Shouzhong. He stepped forward and kicked An Shouzhong over, then quickly rushed to the door. "Come here, gather all my troops and go kill him."
Ashina is polite. Kill him. I must kill him today before the Anxi army enters the city!"
The confidants who stayed in the camp agreed and went to summon their subordinates. At this moment, other generals stationed in various places in the city also arrived under orders. They took the initiative to report the situation on their side to Sun Xiaozhe while jumping on their feet and cursing.
Ashina's etiquette is despicable and shameless.
"No matter what you scold, go back and mobilize the troops. Gather all the soldiers and horses, and surround and kill Ashina Congli before the Anxi army launches the attack! Go quickly, what are you doing in a daze? You trash, tomorrow
Knowing that Ashina Congli was rebelling, they actually didn't lead any troops to attack him. They all came to my commander to watch the excitement!" Sun Xiaozhe was furious, and the orders he issued became more and more confusing.
Didn't you just order me not to act rashly? The generals were cursing in their hearts, but they didn't dare to show any anger on their faces. Test text watermark 1. Bow to accept the order and quickly walk out of the camp.
About a stick of incense later, Sun Xiaozhe's direct descendants gathered together, and the generals also brought their respective teams to the vicinity of the Jiedu Envoy's camp. There were about 8,000 people in total, more than twice the samurai of Ashina's Congli Department.
.This made Sun Xiaozhe feel more confident about quelling the rebellion. He nodded to everyone with satisfaction, jumped on his mount, and rushed towards the west gate at the head of the horse.
Near the west gate, hundreds of tribal warriors were going crazy, killing people and looting along both sides of the street. Upon seeing this, Sun Xiaozhe immediately led his soldiers to rush forward and beheaded the warriors.
"Spare your life, spare your life!" The tribal warriors were outnumbered and decisively chose to surrender. Sun Xiaozhe, however, refused to let this group of unfamiliar white-eyed wolves go anymore, and hacked two of them to death with his own hands, and then pointed the tip of his knife at another wearing a
The guy in the uniform of a fourth-grade general asked sternly: "Where is Ashina Congli? Where has he gone? What tasks have you arranged for you and others? What is the contact signal between Anxi Army and you and others? Quickly
Recruit him truthfully?"
"It's unjust!" The tribal warrior leader shouted, "Commander, spare your life, we are unjust. We Xi tribe, Ashina Congli are Turkic tribes. They are not the same group at all. He told me and others tonight that the Dayan Kingdom
It was about to end, and he wanted to take me back to the outside of the wall. But when he got to the gate of the city, he bullied me and waited for the lack of people, and forced me to stay and break up the queen!"
"After breaking up, go back to the outside of the Great Wall?" Sun Xiaozhe couldn't believe the other party's confession. Ashina Congli was not colluding with the Anxi Army, but was planning to run back to the outside of the Great Wall to become his chief? Then why did he leave so suddenly?
It seems like they want to cooperate with the Anxi military inside and outside?
"He said that you didn't dare to provoke the Hammer King at all, and were ready to surrender to him. He was going to kill us foreigners and use our heads as surrender certificates. We didn't believe what he said at first, but today, this evening, Anshou
The loyal people are stationed in Xiyuan again - ah -!" Before the tribal warrior leader could finish his words, Sun Xiaozhe raised his knife and cut it in half.
"Kill, kill them all, leave no one behind!" He ordered loudly, waving the bloody sword, like a crazy devil.
All the trusted soldiers were ordered to take action, and in an instant, they killed all the remaining prisoners. Looking at the four wide open west city gates, everyone once again turned their attention to Sun Xiaozhe, "Commander, should I pursue you or not!"
"Fuck you!" Sun Xiaozhe glared at everyone angrily and responded loudly. "A fight with Ashina Congli will hurt both sides and let the Anxi army reap the benefits? Close the door and kill Jiang Fang and Lu Yu.
I've found the trash for you, and I'm going to chop off their heads with my own hands!"
Since Ashina's obedience was not to cooperate with the Anxi army, the stone hanging in the hearts of all the soldiers suddenly fell to the ground. They all jumped off their mounts, closed the city gate with all hands and feet, and raised the suspension bridge again. After a while, someone carried the west gate on duty.
The corpses of military general Lu Yu and general Jiang Fang who were on duty in the city came to report their lives to Sun Xiaozhe. It turned out that the two men had long been "loyal" to the Yan Kingdom in order to prevent Ashina from defecting from Li.
"Dead?" Sun Xiaozhe was stunned, with a rare look of sadness on his face. "Why didn't these two idiots report to me earlier! They died in such a muddle, let me, let me
handsome......."
Walking to the corpse, he slowly closed the wide-open eyes of the two generals. After a moment, he suddenly raised his head again and laughed into the dark night sky, "Haha, haha, hahaha. What a Wang Mingyun,
With one attack of heart, I have destroyed my army of four thousand. I am truly convinced of you! But I will not give up on Chang'an and will not let you get what you want. I want to see, it's you
The city of Chang'an will be captured first, and our troops from the Yan Kingdom will pass through Suiyang first!"
