Chapter 19 Disheartened

12days ago Wuxia Novels 10
Geshuhan thought that although An Lushan occupied the Heshuo area, their actions were very unpopular. As long as they stick to Tongguan and prevent An Lushan's power from developing again, they will be trapped in him for a period of time, and their internal forces will be divided due to the struggle for power and profit, and they will even kill each other.

When the troops are sent to conquer, it will be easy to defeat

Now they are showing their strength and are united in the outside world. It is extremely difficult to win with a strong attack, so he adopted a strategy of perseverance as soon as he arrived in Tongguan.

In fact, his plan was extremely successful. For several months, An Lushan's hundreds of thousands of troops were unable to move forward when he looked at Tongguan. At the same time, Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi's military strength became increasingly strong, and it had already posed a great threat behind An Lushan. As long as the right time is right, defeating An Lushan will be just around the corner.

At this time, Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi sent another good news. Guo and Li fought against Shi Siming in Jiashan, and won a great victory, killing 40,000 enemies and capturing thousands of prisoners.

Li Guangbi is now besieging Boling, Guo Ziyi is in the north and Fan Yang

As soon as this news reached Chang'an, the whole country was excited, and the voice of the main battle in the court became higher and higher. Many people think that Geshuhan's insistence on Tongguan was a wrong decision, and he should take the opportunity to go out and attack Anlushan with Guo and Li in the north.

When Geshuhan, Guo Ziyi, and Li Guangbi heard this call, he almost simultaneously stated: lead troops to Fanyang to cover his nest, and conquer his wife to attack him, and the thief will collapse inside... The army of Tongguan should not be easily out!

Geshuhan's town is in Tongguan, but Yang Guozhong is feeling like he is on pins and needles. Geshuhan has great power, and he is worried every day

When Geshuhan arrived in Tongguan, his general Wang Sili asked to bring thirty cavalry back to Chang'an to kill Yang Guozhong to thank the world

Although Ge Shuhan did not agree, his dissatisfaction with Yang Guozhong was fully expressed in his conversation with Wang Sili.

Shortly afterwards, Yang Guozhong made a suggestion and asked to recruit a new army to guard the capital, which was actually used to prevent Geshuhan. However, what made Yang Guozhong even more frightened was that Geshuhan actually took over the command of the new army and also used the excuse to kill his former commander's confidant subordinates.

Therefore, at this time, Yang Guozhong strongly advocated that Geshuhan go out of Tongguan, and attack An Lushan with northern Guo and Li, and recover Luoyang

Once victory is his advice, he should be the first to achieve success; if he loses, it will not only reduce Ge Shuhan's strength, but also damage his prestige.

Yang Guozhong's request was exactly what Li Longji thought

He thought that An Lushan was worried about the situation in Hebei and that Tongguan could not conquer for a long time, so he would definitely be unprepared. If Ge Shuhan didn't come out, he would inevitably miss the opportunity for war.

So the decision to order Geshuhan to send troops was passed by the firm opposition of the generals in front. Within one day, ten imperial edicts were passed, and Geshuhan to send troops to counterattack.

Tongguan defense line

The elderly Geshuhan looked at Chang'an and sighed slightly, shook his head helplessly, returned to the commander's tent and went out of the gate.

Just as Li Longji was looking forward to the good news, in just two days, the news from Tongguan came to Beijing, but it was not the good news, but the news of Tongguan's defeat.

That evening, the safe beacon of Tongguan never ignited again, which means that Tongguan is not only defeated, but has been lost.

Since then, Chang'an has no defense line, and the rebel cavalry will sway the river with one horse.

Tang Mengyao and I rushed back to Chang'an without stopping. The first news we got was that Tongguan was defeated and the natural danger was lost.

At that moment, Tang Mengyao's face suddenly turned into ashes. I clearly captured a trace of discouraged disappointment flashing in her somewhat tired beautiful eyes.

Tang Mengyao was afraid of the chaos like Gao Xianzhi and Feng Changqing in Tongguan again, so she went to Tongguan front line for more than a month. After she felt that everything was normal, she went to Hebei to assist Guo Ziyi in regaining the lost land.

When the situation is getting better day by day, news came that the court planned to let Geshuhan come out of seclusion and counterattack.

The army in Tongguan should not be released easily!

This is the common view of the generals ahead. For the sake of safety, Guo Ziyi also contacted Li Guangbi. They each sent letters and made suggestions to the court. It is necessary to guard Tongguan and not to rush to achieve success.

Even so, Tang Mengyao was unable to feel at ease. The example of the emperor's unremitting execution of Gao Xianzhi and Feng Changqing was right in front of her. She was really afraid of another irreparable loss, so she rushed back to Chang'an from Hebei. However, no one expected that the first news she received when she came to Chang'an was that Tongguan was lost.

Suddenly, she found it very funny. No one named Li regarded his country as a country. What was she still busy with?

Her heart was cold, and she no longer wanted to care about the so-called foundations left by her ancestors. She suddenly felt that her previous persistence was really ridiculous

Chang'an must be unable to defend

Li Heng didn't know what it felt like. The 200,000 army was gone after saying it. Without them, what should we use to guard Chang'an?

So what are you planning now?

After the pain reached the extreme, she could no longer find the pain, or she really saw it, to this ethereal country and the Li family who was always loyal to her.

The father planned to go west to Shuzhong to make a comeback

When Li Heng said this, he almost dared not look directly at his little niece standing in front of him. Although it was not his fault that Tongguan lost, he felt that he owed her something and would never pay it back in his life.

Tang Mengyao did not look at Li Heng, but looked out the window calmly. After a while, she breathed a sigh of relief. It would be better to go to Shuzhong, at least it is the place of our Shushan Sword Sect. There is still some kind of care. No matter how bad it is, it is safe and worry-free, and it is not worry-free. This is the last thing I did for the Li family.

Hearing her say this, Li Heng couldn't help but feel shocked. He had already heard something from her tone. The corners of his mouth opened slightly, but in the end he didn't say anything. What else could he ask her to do for them now?

Uncle Wang, Meng Yao thought the emperor was old. If he could control the overall situation again, I really don’t know what happened in the future. I think Uncle Wang should understand what I mean.

Tang Mengyao suddenly turned around, staring at Li Heng with beautiful eyes, as if she wanted to see him clearly

When Li Heng heard this, his body suddenly shook and looked at her opposite him in shock. You, what you mean is...

Tang Mengyao smiled faintly and said quietly: Uncle Wang thinks there is something wrong with the emperor passing the throne to you at this time?

Hearing her speak so bluntly, Li Heng couldn't help but stir up a lot of trouble in his heart

It is true that he didn't expect the throne, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly

I have already talked with two generals, Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi, and they all expressed their support for you to recover the lost land. As for what to do, I think Uncle Wang knows better than Mengyao Mengyao, Mengyao is a little tired. If Uncle Wang has nothing else, come back first.

Li Heng walked out of Tang Mengyao's room in a twilight manner, his head stopped thinking
