"Prince, you assigned him a task as soon as Yan Zhuang arrived in Qingzhou. If this guy had a detailed job, wouldn't it be a bad thing?"

For some time before, Li Qing sent Yan Zhuang out alone, and often he would not come back ten or eight days later. Zhang Xun and Xu Yuan saw it and thought that Li Qing trusted Yan Zhuang too much.

Finally, Zhang Xun expressed his concern during this period.

"You don't know this. Even if he has a rebellious heart in the future, he will not have any disloyalty when he first came."

Although Li Xuan was not very understanding, Li Xuan always had a very accurate job, and Zhang Xun and others were not inconvenient to say anything.

"Spring is about to begin, and the snow on Hebei Road should melt a little. The day to attack Hebei Road is probably coming soon. Go and prepare quickly. Speaking of which, our Qingzhou is still the closest to Hebei Road."

When Zhang Xun and the others heard this, they all showed a look of eagerness to try. Obviously, they had been looking forward to the battle to attack Hebei Road for a long time.

Since Suiyang, they have long seen that fighting with the enemy is actually a process of accumulating troops. When others fight, the less troops they have, the less troops they have, but their troops have accumulated bit by bit with each battle.

According to their predictions, if the Hebei Dao can really be defeated this time, their troops may be close even if they are less than 100,000. At that time, Li Yan, the governor of Hebei Dao, would not have to be afraid of anyone.

Of course, they can only think about some things in their hearts, rather than what they can say in the open now.

Li Neng's prediction was correct. Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi had indeed been ventilated at this time. After several rounds of letter exchanges, it was to discuss the attack on Hebei Road.

In fact, according to Guo Ziyi's previous idea, it would be better to wait for another month. However, Yu Chaoen had sent letters to Chang'an City many times, saying that Hebei Road had already entered the spring, but Guo Ziyi was still struggling and wondering what to wait for. If he waited further, he would definitely miss the opportunity to fight.

Li Heng was still very convinced of Yu Chaoen, so he immediately gave Guo Ziyi an order to immediately study the attack on Hebei Road and must raise an army within one month.

Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi were very helpless about Yu Chaoen's insistence on getting involved in the war, but there was no way. The other person's official position was there. If you don't let him get involved, he would definitely go to Li Heng to complain again, which would be harmful to this battle without any benefit.

Finally, after several discussions, Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi temporarily set up a strategy of attacking together in three directions, and their first goal was Youzhou.

This attack was entirely to test how many of the rebels under Shi Siming's leadership had left, rather than begging for nothing to take down Youzhou.

Strategically speaking, Youzhou is the core of Hebei Road. In fact, it is much more important than Fanyang. Fanyang is just the emotional center of the rebels, and the real center is Youzhou.

Moreover, after settling down on Fan Yang's affairs, Shi Siming also asked his son Shi Chaoyi to stay in Fan Yang, and he led an army of 200,000 to station in Youzhou, obviously to resist the three armies of the Tang Dynasty.

Shi Siming was actually not worried at all. Although he had failed one after another in Chang'an, Luoyang and Xiangzhou before, he was not really elite rebel soldiers. Now he is the ones he is carrying.

And unlike An Qingxu who just cares about playing by himself, Shi Siming still has very strong tactical qualities and combat experience. Although he was defeated by Li Guangbi in Taiyuan Prefecture before, he felt that it was just because of his underestimation of the enemy. Now he is doing real swords and guns. With the advantage of geographical advantages and military strength, he is not afraid of the three armies of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Guiren, who fought against the Tang Dynasty and especially Guo Ziyi's army many times, also followed him to Youzhou this time. Although he could be said to have been defeated repeatedly before, he still had experience.

"Gui Ren, if the three armies of the Tang Dynasty gather together, there will be tens of thousands of people. In addition, generals like Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi are indeed quite difficult to deal with. I want to defeat them one by one before they gather together. I wonder what you think? It will be easier to defeat which team of troops first?"

Li Guiren's status among the rebels was also quite high, but since Shi Siming said that this thing has been the emperor and the ministers, Li Guiren's status has also been reduced a lot. He knew that if he wanted to get back his previous status, he could only rely on military achievements.

"These three groups of people, Li Neng's journey is closest to us. If they want to go to Youzhou, they will have to pass by a place not far from Fan Yang without taking a detour. In addition, Li Neng's ability is definitely not as good as Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi. I am willing to lead 50,000 troops to intercept Li Neng, which will definitely prevent him from engaging in the other two groups!"

Li Guiren gritted his teeth when he said this. It was obvious that he had been holding it in for too long and just wanted to make a contribution.

His mentality was actually exactly what Shi Siming wanted. Now all the rebels are huddling in Hebei Road, and the combat effectiveness of many generals has been greatly reduced compared to before. Only Li Guiren still maintains the desire to win the battle, so it is very appropriate for him to come to this first battle in Shi Siming's opinion.

And it must be difficult for him to get him to beat Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi, but now he should not be able to intercept and kill a Li Yan in his twenties.

Although Li Yan had defeated Yin Ziqi's tens of thousands of troops in Suiyang before and made a big reputation, everyone knew that the so-called tens of thousands of troops led by Yin Ziqi were mostly mobs, and there were still very few real elite rebels there.

Later, Li Yi brought the cavalry to play a significant role in the battle between the two capitals and the battle between Xiangzhou, but Shi Siming also analyzed these battles. The role played by Li Yi in it was tactical, and the people who really gave advice here were Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi in the eyes of the rebels.

When each defeated, the first thing to do was to choose the simplest opponent was common sense, so after Li Guiren asked for his appointment, Shi Siming agreed at that time.
