Chapter five hundred and forty seventh Hedong situation

Chapter 547: Hedong Current Situation

Guo Ziyi was a very trustworthy person. He personally agreed to Li Qing'an in Zichen Palace that he would lead the main force to send troops to Hedong. He immediately rushed back to Shuofang to reorganize his troops eastward. Just as Li Qing'an left Tongguan, Guo Ziyi's 80,000 troops also crossed the Yellow River.

The Shuofang Army crossed the river from Mengmen Pass in Dinghu County. This is the boundary of Shizhou and is under the control of Li Qing'an. An army of about a thousand people is stationed in Shizhou. Currently, there are 15,000 troops garrisoned by the eight prefectures controlled by Li Qing'an, and is commanded by General Lei Wanchun.

Although there were not many troops, Lei Wanchun trained a regiment of 100,000 people to train troops, which was also the main task given to him by Li Qing'an, to hide his troops from the people.

Lei Wanchun had received the order from Li Qing'an, ordering him to obey Guo Ziyi's military deployment. That afternoon, he led 5,000 troops from Taiyuan to Wenshui County, southwest of Taiyuan Prefecture.

"General Lei, look!" A soldier shouted at the official road in the distance.

Lei Wanchun held the war horse and looked westward. He saw a huge camp station next to the official road in the distance, stretching for several miles. Judging from the size of the camp, at least 100,000 troops were stationed, which should be Guo Ziyi's main force.

At this time, a team of cavalry rushed to the opposite side, stopped in front of them, and the leader of the school captain clasped his fists and said, "Is it General Lei?"

Lei Wanchun rode his horse out and said, "I am! Where is General Guo?"

"General Guo is already waiting in the camp, please follow us."

Lei Wanchun understood what Guo Ziyi meant. He sent someone to greet him because he didn't want his cavalry to get too close to the camp. He turned around and ordered his cavalry team: "Everyone is waiting in place and don't slack off!"

At this time, a confidant general stepped forward and whispered to him: "Be careful that Guo Ziyi is cheating. It is best for general not to go to the other party's military camp. It is better to have a meeting in the third place."

Lei Wanchun pondered for a moment. He was rude on the surface, but he was as careful as his hair and extremely smart. How could he have imagined this principle? He shook his head and said to his subordinates: "Since the general ordered me to obey Guo Ziyi's arrangements, then we should not have any other intentions. We should see him. But there is no problem with being cautious. You can lead the cavalry out ten miles away. If I don't return within a long time, you will immediately lead the army back to Taiyuan and close the city gate to send a letter to the general. Do you understand?"

"I understand!"

After Lei Wanchun finished his order, he led more than a dozen of his personal soldiers to run towards Guo Ziyi's camp. His five thousand cavalry retreated ten miles away and sent a large number of scouts to monitor the movements of the Shuofang Army camp.

In front of the Shuofang Army's camp, Guo Ziyi had led hundreds of people to line out of the camp. Guo Ziyi was wearing a full set of armor, a sword on her waist, and white hair and silver beard, making her look stronger and stronger.

Although Guo Ziyi knew that he was driven out of the inner road by Li Qing'an using a trick, he did not resent. In fact, Anxi's army had not many troops and needed him to send troops to support him. From the overall situation, Guo Ziyi was willing to let go of his personal grudges and cooperate with Li Qing'an to deal with An Lushan.

On the other hand, Li Qing'an ordered Lei Wanchun to obey his deployment, which means that Li Qing'an had given Hedong to him and exchanged Hedong for Guannei Road. From a strategic perspective, Guo Ziyi could understand Li Qing'an's painstaking efforts. After all, Shuofang's strategic position was too sensitive to Anxi. If it were him, he would not want an army to be stationed near his throat.

Although Guo Ziyi did not support Li Qing'an, he was loyal to the Tang court. He was loyal to the Tang Dynasty and could not tolerate rebellious thief like An Lushan. This was also the real reason why he finally decided to send troops to Hedong. He was responsible for strangling An Lushan's offense in the east.

"Elder General, he's here!"

A team of cavalry rushed over from afar. The general was magnificent and burly. Under his crotch, there was a Dayuan BMW, covered in black helmet and black armor. The powerful aura was like a black tower falling from the sky, which made Guo Ziyi secretly cheer. It was indeed a fierce general.

"spread!"

He lowered his order and immediately urged the horse to meet him. At this time, Lei Wanchun had already reached three meters away. He recognized the veteran Guo Ziyi at a glance, clasped his fists and said, "Governor of Yunzhou, Datong Army Envoy Lei Wanchun met with the veteran General Guo!"

His voice was like thunder, just like Zhang Fei's rebirth. Many of Guo Ziyi's personal soldiers were afraid and couldn't help but hold their hands down the hilt of the knife. However, Guo Ziyi was not panicked at all. He smiled slightly and clasped his fists and said, "I heard that General Lei is the number one general in Anxi for a long time. When I saw him today, he was indeed well-known."

Lei Wanchun grinned and said, "What am I in front of my general's magical arrow? Two hundred steps away, he can take my life with one arrow."

When the generals of Shuofang heard that he was still mentioning Li Qing'an's courage, they couldn't help but feel a little contempt in their hearts. As expected, he was a rash general. He didn't even understand the minimum handsome Buyan Yong. However, Guo Ziyi looked at him deeply, stroked his beard and smiled, "General Li is known to everyone in the world, but General Lei is the enemy of thousands of people, which makes me admire him even more."

Lei Wanchun laughed loudly and clasped his fists and said, "The old general has been awarded too much. My general has an order to let me obey the orders of the old general Guo. Even if the old general gives the order, I will follow them one by one!"

"This is the best. The two armies are united and they will be able to cut off gold. Come on! General Lei asked to enter the big tent to discuss."

"Please, the old general!"

Everyone surrounded Lei Wanchun and Guo Ziyi and walked towards the big tent and entered the handsome tent. The two sides were separated and the guests and guests were sitting. Guo Ziyi ordered someone to serve tea and put on a few more plates of snacks. Lei Wanchun seemed to be a little hungry. He saw his hands moving together, sweeping away the snacks like a wind and clouds, and then sipped the tea. Then he said, "Please tell me, old general! I will firmly obey what I want me to do."

Guo Ziyi bowed and smiled, "General Lei, don't worry. I have made a decision and will make arrangements. But I want to ask first, whether General Lei has received the order from His Highness Zhao to deal with Dong Qin, how can we fight?"

Lei Wanchun waved his hand and said with a hearty smile: "How else can I fight? I led 5,000 cavalry as the vanguard and kicked his mother's enemy tent. I've been holding my energy long ago and just waiting for the old general to come."

"No! No!" Guo Ziyi shook her head and said, "That's the case for An Lushan's army. We must incorporate all Dong Qin's army without fighting."

"This... OK! I followed the old general's arrangement and asked me to kill me if I asked me to make up, and asked me to make up."

Seeing that he was very comfortable and was very happy, Guo Ziyi liked it in his heart, and smiled and said, "Then I won't leave more generals. There is a dirt city seven miles northeast from my camp. General Lei might as well lead his army to station there. If there is any need, just speak to me."

"No problem, then I'll say goodbye first."

Lei Wanchun stood up and bowed, then clasped his fists to the general in the tent, "Everyone, I'm leaving."

He strode away, and Guo Ziyi led the generals to send him outside the camp gate. Then he stopped. Looking at Lei Wanchun's majestic back, the generals of Shuofang all shook their heads secretly. Deputy General Cheng Qianli also sighed: "It's a pity that you are brave, but you have no strategy!"

"No! You all misread him."

Guo Ziyi turned around and said to everyone: "This man seems rude, but in fact he is extremely smart. His army is stationed ten miles away to prevent us from raiding after killing people. Just look at his camp, did he reveal anything? How many troops he brought and how much food he brought? How did Taiyuan defend? He didn't say anything. Think about it, would Li Qing'an let a simple-minded person station in Taiyuan, Beidu? He was just confusing us, you were all fooled."

Everyone thought about it, and Cheng Qianli frowned again and said, "But what's the point of his like this?"

"You must be careful of others. If I were him, I would be just as confused." Guo Ziyi sighed. Why did all the talents in the world reach Li Qing'an?

"What should we do if the old general?"

"A day off, we will set out south tomorrow!"



















Guo Ziyi is a prepared person. He refers to Luzhou when he mentioned the south. In fact, it has been four days since he crossed the river. He has been walking slowly for four days. He needs to understand the situation and prescribe the right medicine. The first information he got was that Dong Qin's 20,000 troops were all in Luzhou. He did not go north and cross the border, nor did he retreat east to Hebei because of the arrival of the Shuofang Army. This shows that he was hesitant and could not make a decision for the time being.

Guo Ziyi's confidence comes from his understanding of Dong Qin. He was young and had been in the army. He followed Zhang Shougui and An Lushan as two governors. Last year, An Lushan claimed to be the King of Yan. He rebelled on Yichu. Many Han generals and Han soldiers abandoned him one after another. Dong Qin was one of them. He fled to Hedong and collected more than 20,000 fled Fan Yang Han troops. He retreated to Puzhou in the south and was appointed as the prefect of Puzhou by the court. During this period, Lei Wanchun recruited him several times, but he just refused. Later, Li Heng ascended the throne and sent envoys to win him over. Dong Qin became loyal to Li Heng and was named the governor of Pu Jiang.

This time, Li Heng fled to Chengdu in the south, and Dong Qin was unable to enter the pass and was isolated in Hedong. This time, Li Qing'an sent troops to Luoyang and Guo Ziyi sent troops to Hedong, which made Dong Qin extremely frightened. He gave up Puzhou and retreated to Luzhou to watch the situation.

Dong Qin was also one of the vassal states in the mid-Tang Dynasty. During the Anshi Rebellion, he followed Guo Ziyi to fight An Lushan. After defeat, he pretended to surrender to Shi Siming and then returned to Tang Dynasty. He was named Li Zhongchen by the court.

At this time, Dong Qin led 20,000 troops to station troops in Shihui Pass, the northernmost foot of Taiyue Mountain, where the mountains are steep and continuous. Shihui Pass is one of the most powerful passes. It is made of huge stones to guard the source river and valley passage of Taiyue Mountain. It can be said that one man is the pass, and ten thousand man cannot open it.

For two days, Dong Qin was restless. He was very handsome and beautiful, and his confidant found dozens of beautiful women from the surrounding prefectures and counties to vent his days and nights. But women still couldn't calm him down. He was worried that once his 20,000 troops were defeated, he would have no way out.

Dong Qinnian was about 40 people, with a tall figure and extremely bravery. He was also a powerful general. He was considered to be half a Hu. His father was from Pinglu Hu, but his mother was a Han girl. When his mother died of illness at the age of thirteen, he could not bear the humiliation of his tribe and ran to Fanyang to join the army. From then on, he began his nearly thirty years of military career, fighting south and north, and earning his merits to the general.

He originally thought that he would be in Fanyang's army for the rest of his life, but An Lushan wanted to rebel, which made him despise, so he led his headquarters to flee south and was accepted by the court, but now he has no way out.

Just as he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, his personal soldiers suddenly came to report: "Report to the general, Guo Ziyi is alone and asks to see the general under the pass!"
