Chapter 1139: Shuo Fang sends troops

When Wang Rong quietly returned to Yizhou from Changshan County and returned to Daizhou from the original route, and then Zhang Xing, Pugudang, was divided into two groups and prepared to counterattack Youzhou, 20,000 soldiers and horses from the Anbei Dadu Protectorate had arrived in Xiazhou in Shuofang a few days ago. Yi Li Chuoba's first wife and Mrs. Luo, received a letter from his eldest son Pugu Huaien before the New Year, and cruelly placed her husband under house arrest and re-in charge of the affairs of Pugu in Xiazhou. This time, she personally took charge of the resettlement of the troops in Anbei Ya tent City, and provided food and fodder, trying her best to hide all the rumors.

In the Shuofang Jiedushi's mansion in Lingzhou, Shuofang, Guo Ziyi finally officially promoted to the hall. He has been serving as the governor for several years. At this moment, he looked around his civil and military officials. Although he had a few new faces, more were his colleagues and subordinates back then. Thinking of the words Du Shiyi said yesterday, even though he could not tolerate any carelessness in this occasion, he was still a little distracted.

"The general's family is still in Chang'an. He is so arrogant and despicable. What if he is framed as a rebellion by Yang Guozhong?"

"The world is fair and free in people's hearts. The mouthpiece that can shake off the deafening is not only controlled by the hands of the foolish monarch and the treacherous minister."

Thinking of the word "silly king" burst out from Du Shiyi's mouth, Guo Ziyi couldn't help but twitch his lips. In this era of strict etiquette and law, whenever there was any problem, he blamed the treacherous and slanderous and harmed the country and the people, and did not dare to involve the emperor at all. What's more, the Kaiyuan prosperous era of wise and wise men seemed to be yesterday. However, what has Li Longji been in these years? Loyal ministers and good generals were all wronged, and cruel officials and treacherous and treacherous in the court were rampant, the civil taxes and labor became heavier, and more and more refugees were fled. Even the border towns made countless contributions, and the generals detained the food and wages of soldiers, and even mutiny.

The most terrible thing is that just after An Lushan raised the rebellion high, it was clear that the chariot and horses had rebelled, the court's reaction was terrible. Moreover, because of An Lushan's declaration, Li Longji actually put the prince Li Heng under house arrest. Now Li Heng has not appeared in front of others for a long time. He doesn't know whether he is dead or alive. Not to mention that An Sishun was sent to the enemy, and the mansion was burned down, and his family was wanted. But now there is a rumor in the entire pass that Ge Shuhan, who led the deputy marshal to fight, framed An Sishun because of his old grudges.

It's incredible that you don't forget to have intrigue when you're already in chaos.

"Master, Master"

Guo Ziyi was suddenly called back by this voice. Seeing that all the civil and military officials were looking at him with doubts, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He coughed heavily, but said straight to the point: "Since the Anth thief rebellion, it has swept across Hebei and ravaged Henan. Dujidao is in danger and Tongguan is also difficult to protect. But at this time, there are demons dancing in Chang'an City. I have agreed with Anbei's great guardian, General Du, to send troops to the next day."

As soon as these words came out, the hall was in an uproar. After the chaos in Mobei, the Anbeiya tent city cut off news from the Central Plains. Although the Shuofang Jieduan had written to the court many times to request troops, it was always suppressed by Yang Guozhong. It is said that the emperor also instructed him to watch the changes. Now that An Lushan suddenly rebelled, Du Shiyi appeared at this time, why not surprise people? At this time, Du Fu, who is now the judge of the Shuofang Jieduan's Office, suddenly asked loudly: "Master Guo, where is the man who is Du?"

Guo Ziyi personally came to the left and right sides of the festival hall and set up a curtain. The next moment, Du Shiyi, wearing a golden and purple robe, appeared in front of everyone with a tiger-backed and bear-waisted face. In an instant, there was a noise in the hall. Someone rushed forward to salute, some were busy asking what was going on, and Pu Gu Huai'en's former colleagues and subordinates were busy asking about the situation of Pu Gu's troops in Mobei. The mess continued until Du Shiyi reached out to press and signaled Sujing, and finally he returned to the silence that started.

"I know everyone has a lot of questions in their minds, so I might as well give them a answer here."

This is where he had been a military governor for more than ten years, and almost all the military generals below were familiar faces. Therefore, Du Shiyi did not hide the truth about the previous chaos in Mobei. Except for the fact that the westward advance was not only An Lushan's instigation, but also his instruction. It was absolutely secret and everything else could be said. When he talked about his bloody letter after Luo Xibing's incident, he wrote a blood letter to complain about Yang Guozhong and An Lushan's affairs, but the emperor in the court ignored it, the civil and military officials in the court could not help but feel the same. When Du Shiyi learned that An Lushan and Luo Ying had joined forces to send troops and wrote a letter to express this incident, there was no reply in the court, and most people were indignant.

In the court, it is either a traitor or a traitor or a traitor. What kind of world is this?

"So, I was so angry at that time, so I summoned the generals and officials of Anbeiya Treasure City and said that since the court ignored our hard work in building the city, our blood, sweat and lives, why should we bother with each other? Why should we just watch so coldly and see if there is still justice in the world. Later, after learning about the rebellion of Anlushan, I also thought of standing by and watching, and Anbeiya Treasure City was far away at the foot of Wudejian Mountain. No matter what the Central Plains were like, what would be with me? I thought that if I hadn't seen the demons in the court dancing, His Majesty was obsessed with it, why should I stay in Shuofang, and then even went far away to Mobei to advise. Since it was useless, it would be better to be out of sight."

Such resentful words may be pretentious when others say them, but Du Shiyi became famous when she was young and was once praised as a strong man. She has been an official for nearly thirty years. With her qualifications, she can return to worship prime ministers. However, he is always willing to stay in the border town, and even volunteers to the places that others avoid, and has already established a positive image in the hearts of the soldiers. Even Guo Ziyi himself couldn't help but sigh secretly.

"But I really want to stand by, but I feel sorry for being born in Jingzhao and studied in Songshan. I can be said to be born in Guanzhong and raised in Heluo. If I abandoned the place where I raised me because of my anger, wouldn't it be better to pigs and dogs? Not only me, 80% of the Anbeiya camp were foreign troops, and the Central Plains had nothing to do with them. But I learned that An Lushan rebelled, and I wanted to send troops south to fight against the rebels. At the same time, everyone was fighting for the first place, and everyone was brave. The remaining soldiers decided to draw lots. In the end, Li Guangbi was not lucky, so he stayed."

Speaking of lottery, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became much more relaxed. Many people who followed Du Shiyi's old subordinates thought of the past. What moved them even more was Du Shiyi's attitude and the attitude of the foreign troops in Anbeiya City. As more and more people looked at Guo Ziyi, the Shuofang Jiedushi sighed and said bluntly: "I thought that when the rebels suddenly rose and the news of the East Suspension City was delivered, I sent a messenger to the court to report the letter, but in the end I was severely rebuked by spreading rumors and causing trouble, which delayed the most precious time to suppress the rebels. The An thief fought from Hebei and Henan all the way to Luoyang these days, and I wrote a book a day, saying that there was nothing wrong with Mobei, and asked me to send troops to Guanzhong, but what was the result? I repeatedly asked for orders, but the court repeatedly ordered me to defend on the spot. Why is this?"

Guo Ziyi suddenly raised his voice and said angrily: "That's because Yang Guozhong only thought the rebels were made of paper clay sculptures, and he didn't want my troops in Shuofang to make achievements. He only did the court army come out, and the rebels An Lushan would become powder, but what's the result? Now Luoyang is in danger. Even though Ge Shuhan has the ability to be a master, he forged letters and framed him because he was incompatible with An Sishun. He was not an open man. Where did he?

Can it win the hearts of the people? What's more, it's not the Helong soldiers he used to, but a bunch of mobs that were pieced together. Yang Guozhong actually felt that such soldiers were more trustworthy than my Shuofang Xiong Army. Unlike An Lushan's Youyan Pinglu Army, I am not unable to send troops, but I dare not send troops. My family, many of the generals and schools here, stay in Chang'an. If we are a great rebel, wouldn't we have to flow into blood in Chang'an?

Guo Ziyi was not as scruple as Du Shiyi, but just pointed his finger at Yang Guozhong. Even so, he was favored by the court, and when the military situation was urgent, Shuofang's army was still ignored, and everyone was still angry. Therefore, when Du Shiyi spoke again, informing everyone that there had been a large army heading towards Hedong in Anbeiya City, and at this moment, he should have entered the hinterland of Hebei and rushed straight to Anlushan's lair. His 20,000 Anbei army would work with Shuofang's troops to help Guanzhong, so as to relieve the people and save the country, and gain all the praises.

But at this moment, a sudden riot broke out outside the hall, followed by a personal soldier who broke in without hesitation, and said in a trembling voice: "The horses in Tongguan rushed back through Hedong Road, saying... It was said that Ge Shuhan was defeated, and one in ten of the 80,000 troops had no one left, and now they have retreated to Tongguan."

In order to learn about the situation ahead and take advantage of geographical advantages, Guo Ziyi sent countless scouts to sneak into Duji and Henan. The news sent back at this moment undoubtedly became a huge rock that was heavily pressed into the hearts of everyone. Geshuhan's defeat means that Luoyang may never be saved anymore, and at the same time, Tongguan will inevitably be empty in defense. If the rebels directly defeated Tongguan, then Chang'an can be said to be over.

Not only Guo Ziyi and Du Shiyi's family were present in Chang'an, but many generals from the Sixteen Guards also had relatives or family members in the imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty. When they thought of the consequences of Chang'an being destroyed, they responded one after another as one person asked for battle.
