Moreover, Wu Xi also explained in the letter that Duan Xuan was missing. He might have met Li Jue and did not know whether Guo Si was alive or dead, so he fled alone. He could have taken the opportunity to capture the camp in the north of the city. Wu Xi also made it clear that Guo Si was going to
Patrolling his camp, he wanted to take the opportunity to capture Guo Si, and then break away from the city of Chang'an, using Chang'an as a promotion ceremony for himself and his 50,000 Qiang brothers!
Duan Yan followed Zuo Aoran to his camp in the north of the city. Duan Yan's men thought that Zuo's army was coming to rob the camp. Many people fled, and some even shouted to surrender. Only a small group
Everyone was holding weapons and preparing to defend against the enemy, which caused Duan Yan to lose all face. Zuo Aoran didn't take it seriously and allowed the small force that Duan Yan ordered to resist to surrender. After a brief inventory, Zuo Aoran integrated Duan Yan into the army.
The soldiers and horses of Xuan returned to the camp, leaving only Zhang Chun, Li Yi and three thousand soldiers and horses to guard the camp.
Zuo Aoran returned to the camp. He felt that the dramatic scene just now was very interesting, and he also noticed some problems, so he scattered all Duan Xuan's troops among Zuo's army, leaving only the small group who resisted just now.
Some of the troops were given to Duan Xuan, and they were called personal guards, but in fact they were depriving Duan Xuan of his military power in disguise.
Duan Xuan was not a fool, and he was naturally as clear as day in his heart, but what could he do? His life was completely in the hands of others, alas! Forget it! Just take care of what you have come! Think of Zuo Aoran's reputation.
Outside, he will definitely not be the kind of person who crosses rivers and burns bridges. What's more, there are so many surrendered generals in Zuo Aoran's army? As long as you stay safe, there will be no problem in you for the rest of your life!
When Niu Gang's matter came to an end, naturally no one would mention it again, and Zuo Aoran would not be stupid enough to mention it himself. Everyone was discussing in the big tent overnight how to take the opportunity to capture Chang'an. At this time, Zhou Tai,
Wenpin and Li Wenhou came back and tied up two generals dressed as military generals.
Zhou Tai, Wenpin, and Li Wenhou came to the commander's case and saluted together. Li Wenhou said: "My lord, Li Wenhou is fortunate to have fulfilled his orders and surrendered the 3,000 Liangzhou troops who were trapped on the top of the mountain. However, these two thieves Li Xian and Li Li can be said to be
He was extremely stubborn and refused to surrender no matter what. In the end, he was kidnapped by a junior high school student named Sheng Jie under their command. Only then did he successfully complete the master's plan."
Zuo Aoran nodded and said, "Well, that's right! The small colonel named Sheng Jie was given a heavy reward and allowed to command the three thousand troops who surrendered. They formed their own battalion and were assigned to General Duan Xuan.
"
"Thank you so much, Lord Yuan!" Duan Xuan hurriedly stepped out of the queue, bowed and saluted, and even changed his title.
Zuo Aoran looked at Li Xian and Li Li said: "Now that Li Jue and Guo Si are gone, I can only go to Chang'an in a matter of seconds. Are you two still unwilling to surrender?" Li Xian and Li Li are quite brave.
Yes, he ignored Zuo Aoran's question at all and just tilted his head, quite proudly.
Duan Xuan came out and said: "Li Xian and Li Li are Li Jue's nephews. Their martial arts are mediocre, and their general strategy is even more unsatisfactory. They are far less than one ten thousandth of Li Shi's son, Li Jue!"
"Dog thief Duan Xuan, my uncle treated you well, but you rebelled in battle. The two of us are mediocre in ability, not as good as my brother Li Shi, but it is enough to kill you!" Although Li Xian was tied up, he fought hard
He threw himself at Duan Yan with all his strength, and Li Li also bumped into Duan Yan.
Duan Xuan was not a vegetarian either. He first dodged Li Xian, then kicked Li Li down, grabbed Li Xian with his backhand, stepped on Li Li on the ground with one foot, and then laughed loudly and said: "Mi Li"
My son’s light dares to compete with the sun and the moon! Hahaha!!!”
"Here comes someone! Keep these two people in custody first. I will be of use in the future!" Zuo Aoran said.
Zuo Aoran gave an order, and some soldiers came forward and took Li Xian and Li Li into custody. Duan Yan felt proud that he had exposed his hand in front of Zuo Aoran, and stepped aside with a cheerful face. However, this provoked
There were a lot of eye rolls, and he was very dismissive of the generals, especially the arrogance that Duan Yan just released, and he even dared to compare himself to the sun and the moon. It was simply arrogant!
Just at this time, a blue-flag scout horse ran into the tent and pointed one leg at the ground: "Let me report to my lord, more than three hundred miles away, an army horse was found, carrying three banners: Zhang, Hu, and Zhao. Smoke and dust billowed all the way.
Our army is approaching. According to preliminary estimates, there are 80,000 troops! Please make a decision!?"
Zuo Aoran nodded and said: "I will reward you with ten taels of silver. If you explore again, I will pay you back!"
"Yes!" Blue Flag Primary School left.
The Lanqi Primary School left, and Li Wenhou came out and said: "My lord, now we can take advantage of the fact that Li Jue and Guo Si don't know about the two thieves. Let's divide our troops in half. We will first retreat the reinforcements from Zhang Ji, Hu Zhen, and Zhao Cen, and then turn around.
Attack Chang'an again!" This time it was really strange, Chen Yu surprisingly did not sing the opposite.
"Well, it suits my purpose!" Zuo Aoran nodded and said: "Zhou Tai, Li Meng will lead five thousand troops and set up a battalion on the right side of the camp. Jiang Qin, Guan Cheng, will lead five thousand troops and set up a camp on the right side of the camp."
A battalion was set up on the left. Wang Chang led 10,000 troops and built a stronghold in front of the main camp. Zu Lang led 10,000 troops and set up a battalion behind the main camp. Chen Yu, Li Wenhou and Juhu led 20,000 troops to guard the main camp.
, the rest of the generals will follow me and lead an army of 50,000 to meet the enemy!"
A series of orders were issued, and the provisions for the army and horses were prepared. The next day, Zuo Aoran led the army out of the camp, with twenty-four flying dragon flags, twenty-four flying tiger flags, twenty-four flying leopard flags, and twenty-four flying flags in front.
Bear flags, five-color banners, Jia and Yi wood in the east, Gengxin gold in the west, Rengui water in the north, Bingding fire in the south, Wuji soil in the center, ten thousand spearmen in the front row, ten thousand short swordsmen, five thousand archers, five
Thousand swordsmen, 10,000 infantry, 10,000 horsemen, 160 squads of personal soldiers, deputies, counselors, tours, capitals, guards, thousands, generals, foreign commissions, marched in two rows.
There are five big flags in front of Zuo Aoran's horse, Zhuque in front, Xuanwu in the back, Qinglong on the left, White tiger on the right, and a large flag in the middle. The surface is made of red satin, the edge is trimmed with blue satin, and the golden top of the gourd is inverted.
Hanging lanterns have tassels, red ribbons, and red flames, with a big white moon shining in the center, and a big "Zuo" character embroidered on it. There is a line of small characters next to it, which reads: Generalissimo - Invincible General for Horizontal Use - Hussar General - Loyal and Brave to Protect the Country.
Hou - Bingzhou Mu!
The large group of people responded to the reinforcements, and it was truly unimpeachable along the way. The people and horses walked for a long time, and when dust and smoke started to rise in front, they came to report to the horse: "For your information, my lord, the enemy was found fifty miles ahead.
Army! The enemy has built three strongholds, one of which has the banner of Zhang, and the left and right are the banners of Zhao and Hu!"
"I'll reward you with a silver medal. I'll investigate and report again." Zuo Aoran said.
Immediately, Zuo Aoran ordered his men and horses to set up camp near mountains and rivers, plant antlers and bury caltrops, set up sentries, and ordered the fire-headed army to bury pots and make rice. Zuo Aoran was ready to fight with Zhang Ji, Hu Zhen, and Zhao
The combined army of General Cen has started a war. Why did Zuo Aoran come here in person? It’s because of Zhang Xiu, the spear king of the North. Zuo Aoran wanted to capture Zhang Xiu in front of the battle, so he turned him over and became a big help to himself.
