If the Northern Xinjiang Army can be defeated and there is no threat to the entire south of Guanzhong, Shi Zhongtang can concentrate on managing Guanzhong and managing his imperial foundation. When the time comes, he can ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor.
Shi Gongming had thought of this situation. But what about the Northern Xinjiang Army?
If there is a major defeat, the Northern Xinjiang Army will inevitably flee all the way.
Shi Zhongtang certainly wanted to pursue him, but there were rebellions in the south that needed to be suppressed. The forces in Guanzhong were complex and needed to be suppressed and reconciled. He was more than willing but not strong enough.
But the north is too wide. If Li Xuan is allowed to escape to the north, he will only need a few years to recuperate, and a big enemy will appear again.
This is what Shi Zhongtang doesn't want to see.
Therefore, letting Shi Gongming go north to attack Northern Xinjiang was Shi Zhongtang's helpless move, and it was also the situation that was most beneficial to him at the moment.
Therefore, his promise is sincere. North!
Shi Jian's eyes turned red. Aye!
Zhao Xuan glanced at Shi Jian and thought that this person was so eager, which showed that Shi Gongming often talked about his ambitions.
In this case, Shi Gongming will definitely agree.
Shi Gongming said in a deep voice: Please think twice about this matter!
——Shi Gongming would be reserved even if he was willing. This is Shi Zhongtang’s analysis.
It’s just as the king expected!
Zhao Xuan said with a smile: "I just happened to be tired from the journey. By the way, do you have any good wine?"
Someone came and took the envoy to rest. He just took the wine. Shi Gongming nodded.
Zhao Xuan handed over his hand, so the official waited for his husband's reply. Easy to say! Shi Gongming was very polite.
The matter is settled! Zhao Xuan is happy.
Shi Gongming's Yandong army has been attacking Daizhou for a long time. In the city of Daozhou, inside the prefecture.
Li Xuangao sat on it, and civil and military officials stood two rows below. Han Ji said: Once Yan Dong's army goes to Daizhou, Lizhou will be threatened. Our army's food routes will be in danger of being cut off. Shi Gongming even said
Can attack our army from a flank. Jiang Cunzhong said: This is the biggest variable in this battle.
He Lianrong said: Shi Zhongtang will not miss this opportunity. Everyone nodded. Shi Zhongtang is a veteran and will not fail to see this opportunity that can change the situation.
For Shi Gongming, it would be best if he could go north. But this must be a major defeat for our Northern Xinjiang army. Pei Jian said: Shi Zhongtang will definitely send lobbyists to analyze the overall situation. At the moment, our army is stationed on the road.
Lizhou threatened Yuezhou and Jianzhou. Shi Zhongtang had to go out and fight decisively. If Shi Gongming could attack Lizhou, our army would be passive. In this way, the rebels would be quite sure of this battle. Shi Zhongtang would definitely use
To lure him, for example, use the north as bait to drive Shi Gongming to send troops.
What happened to Daizhou? Someone asked: Shi Gongming has been attacking for a long time. Is Daizhou so strong?
Han Ji Wan'er said that Daizhou had long been in dilapidated condition. The Yandong army had been attacking for a long time but had not yet broken the city. It was not because Daizhou's army was fierce and tenacious, but because Shi Gongming was too cautious.
He pointed at the map. There was news from Jinyiwei that Daizhou was about to fall, but our army then broke through Lizhou and marched to the south. Afterwards, Daizhou seemed to have taken Shiquan Dabu Pill, and the defense became more and more stable.
Before the Daozhou war, Daizhou was once again in danger. After Ashina Yanrong was defeated, Daizhou stabilized the situation again.
Wang Laoer blurted out, isn't this a joke?
Right. Han Ji said sarcastically: Shi Gongming wanted to do great things but cherished his own life. He was too cowardly.
Pei Jian said: Another reason why Shi Gongming did not interfere in the battle the first two times was that Shi Zhongtang did not try his best.
After defeating Guanzhong, Shi Zhongtang went to Chang'an. Then he focused on suppressing and mediating all parties in Guanzhong, leaving the war to his subordinates.
This opportunity is rare! He Lianrong said: Shi Gongming may be tempted.
Is it possible to convert this person? Someone asked.
Han Ji shook his head. Shi Gongming's rebellion was a rebellion, and he and Shi Zhongtang were naturally allies. And His Highness was Zhengshuo of the Tang Dynasty, so naturally he could not join forces with the rebels.
Good and evil
stand!
If Li Xuan joined forces with Shi Gongming, everyone in the world would poke his back.
This matter must be destroyed! Han Ji said.
Pei Jian nodded, otherwise Lizhou would be threatened and the army would be shaken. This battle would be difficult to fight.
How did this go wrong?
The messenger who might have assassinated Shi Zhongtang? Everyone looked at Helian Yan.
This is what Jin Yiwei does.
This is the general trend. King Qin said calmly: It cannot be changed by a few spies.
This matter is related to the general trend of the world, even if it is Jin Yiwei's secret spy
Assassinating Shi Zhongtang's envoy would be beneficial, and Shi Gongming would be tempted.
The so-called general trend is driven by interests. Yandong is cramped, and Shi Gongming has long wanted to expand, but to the south is Shi Zhongtang's territory, and he does not have the courage. To the north, our northern army is here, how can he dare? In this way, Yan
The east has become a small place, and it is difficult to compete for the world.
The King of Qin pointed at the map casually. Shi Zhongtang's move was to drive him for profit, and Shi Gongming would definitely agree.
He looked at his subordinate Wen Wu. You only thought of destruction, but why did you want to destroy it?
Everyone was stunned.
The King of Qin said: Gu is here, Gu's army is here, let him come in any way, Gu only punches away!
Aye, what a rare opportunity!
In the big tent, Shi Jian said excitedly: Once Lizhou is threatened, the morale of the Northern Xinjiang army will be chaotic. The southern Xinjiang army will be dispatched from Guanzhong. How can the Northern Xinjiang army with its chaotic morale be defeated? Once the Northern Xinjiang army is defeated, we can
Take advantage of the trend to pursue and sweep across the north! Aye, what a great situation! Shi Gongming was silent.
Xie Zhong said: Mr. Xie, after this battle, no matter who wins or loses, it will be difficult to change the general trend of the world. We, Yandong, are cramped. If we want to expand, we can only go north!
I know. Shi Gongming pondered for a long time and said: Shi Zhongtang was just a shepherd at the beginning. By chance, he joined the Southern Xinjiang Army. By chance, he was valued by Zhang Huan. By chance, he was adopted by the imperial concubine as his adopted son and took charge of Southern Xinjiang.
Only then did everyone realize that Shi Zhongtang was really lucky!
Is this God's will?
I'm not convinced! Shi Gongming raised his head, his eyes seemed to be filled with flames. Li Bi was confused and the Tang Dynasty was declining. I seemed to have seen the moment when the country collapsed. I was in charge of the land of Yandong and had a large army in my hand. Facing this situation
, how can you not be tempted? But I made many plans, but they were suppressed by the two forces, one from the south and one from the north. I don’t accept it!
Xie Zhong had tears in his eyes. As Shi Gongming's think tank, he knew the difficulties of all this.
Shi Gongming could be said to have worked hard, and his vision could not be said to be bad. He had long seen the irrepressible decline of the Tang Dynasty, and started preparations early.
What do you need to compete in the world? Money, food, troops, and talents.
He worked hard for money and food, but the Chang'an Household Department gave most of the money and food to Southern Xinjiang, but no one gave him a second glance.
In terms of the army, Yandong was not considered poor, but it was not rich either. In addition, Shi Gongming was cautious and refused to give people excuses, so the army expansion was slow.
As for talents, Shi Gongming had long since attracted those great talents, but when he heard they were from Yan Dong, he was not interested at all.
Speaking of which, it’s all tears!
Aye, we only need to march to Lizhou and then sit back and watch. Shi Jian advised.
Xie Zhong said: Don't sit back and watch, otherwise you will be regarded as the leader and the rat. After the war, Shi Zhongtang will not spare me Yan Dong.
Being betrayed, you have to give benefits, but there is no such thing as this. Shi Gongming took a deep breath and told the envoy that within five days, I will destroy Daizhou!
This is a promise! Good!
When Zhao Xuan, who was drinking, got the news, he immediately smashed his glass and said in a high-spirited voice: Mr. Shi is so heroic, I will go and report it to the king.
Shi Gongming made up his mind and immediately ordered his troops to attack the city.
Yandong's army changed its lazy look and frequently attacked the city. The defenders were stunned by such an unreasonable attack.
Sir, be careful!
Zhang Ling, the governor of Daizhou, was pulled by Wang Shu and stumbled back. Then a spear thrown from nowhere was nailed to the place where he was standing.
Zhang Lin threw away Wang Shu's hand and roared: Counterattack! Counterattack! The reserve team rushed to the top of the city and strangled the rebels.
Wang Shu said: Your Majesty, the rebels have gone crazy.
They have been keeping their strength! During this period of guarding the city, Zhang Lin had already pondered Shi Gongming's mentality countless times. It was clear that Shi Gongming wanted to sit back and watch the battle between the southern Xinjiang rebels and the northern Xinjiang army, and watch the situation advance or retreat.
.Now that he suddenly went crazy, there was only one possibility: the situation was about to change.
Is this going to be a war? Wang Shu's face is ashen, but what should we do?
What can be done? Zhang Lin smiled sadly and said: Yandong rebelled and Lizhou was lost, so we, Daizhou, were left alone. There was the Northern Xinjiang Army in the front, and there was the rebellion of Yandong in the back. If we can hold on for a day, it will be a day.
Someone said: Sir, where are the reinforcements from the court? Zhang Lin drew his sword, there will be no reinforcements.
Wang Shu did not have his scruples and said: Your Majesty abandoned Chang'an and fled to Shu. He cannot save himself, where will the reinforcements come from?
Daizhou is the place of death! Everyone's face is pale. For the Tang Dynasty!
Zhang Lin shouted and rushed forward with his reserve team.
But before that, he was shouting for Your Majesty! The army had already left Chang'an.
Halfway through, the fast horse sent by Zhao Xuan arrived.
Your Majesty, Shi Gongming said that Daizhou will be defeated within five days. Good! Shi Zhongtang smiled at both of them and said calmly: In this way, the overall situation is settled.
He Zun said: We have to be careful of the sudden attack of the Northern Xinjiang Army. Wei Ming said calmly: The scouts have been watching them. Wherever Li Xuan wants to make a surprise attack, it will be difficult to hide it from the eyes and ears of our army.
Yuezhou.
After the last defeat, the governor Qian Song cursed Ashina Yanrong in the prefecture for three days.
Then, Ashina Yanrong's envoy came and asked Daozhou to take the blame, and Qian Song stopped yelling.
The king has sent out troops.
In the middle of the prefecture, Qian Song's eyes are bright. This is a great opportunity for Yuezhou to avenge our humiliation. When the army leaves the pass, the Northern Xinjiang Army will definitely fight. And I, Yuezhou, are behind the Northern Xinjiang Army, so I can make a surprise attack or attack from a flank.
Everyone's spirits were lifted.
He sent people to Guanzhong to report to the king, and said, "I am crossing the state to ask for a fight! I am willing to die for the king!"
Take the order!
Qian Song stood up and uttered every word, "This battle should be avenged! Clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang!"
The bell sounded.
This is a warning bell!
Tan Yun stood up suddenly and shouted outside: Go and ask! Dang Dang Dang Dang!
The bell still echoed stubbornly. Qian Song said angrily: Go and have a look.
He walked out of the lobby first, followed by everyone behind him.
The sound of horse hoofbeats stopped outside Zhouli, and then a sergeant stumbled in. After seeing Qian Song, he said with a panic look: Enemy attack!
What enemy attack? Qian Song asked.
Outside Yuezhou City, hundreds of Yuezhou scouts rushed towards the city.
It seemed as if there were demons and monsters chasing me behind me.
Not far away, Wang Laoer and his rangers were killing lagging enemy troops wantonly.
Qian Song led people to the top of the city. They were the Northern Xinjiang Army Rangers! The guard at the top of the city reported.
It's just a ranger, why are you warning? Tan Yun shook his head, a little dissatisfied, and said to the king, after the last defeat, there were some frightened birds in the army, so we have to think of a way.
The guard said: That's Wang Laoer. So what? Tan Yun shouted.
The appearance of Wang Laoer means that Li Xuan is here. There is a muffled thunder in the sky, and then countless cavalry pour out of the horizon.
The flag of rebellion is fluttering in the wind.
It's Li Xuan! Qian Song's face is pale. Go quickly and report to the king before the siege is completed. The Northern Xinjiang Army is besieging the city and Yuezhou is in danger!
