The forty-ninth chapter, who can cross the thousands of warriors 3

"It's definitely not possible to fight like this." Zheng Yunming said: "I expected that the Mongolians would spare no effort to move most of the artillery vehicles to a position closer to Xiangyang City tomorrow. Even if they were fired by the bronze general's artillery, they would have to make most of the artillery vehicles work. In fact, they didn't know that our bronze general's range was close and had low power, and they didn't have a few pieces of equipment. They were just paper tigers, and they were just posing as a shelf to scare people. It's a pity that this lie must be exposed tomorrow."

Bai Yijie looked out from the gap between the buildings and said, "I'm afraid that our paper tiger will be exposed tomorrow!" He pointed to the Mongolian army formation in the distance.

Zheng Yunming looked at the big black worms raised in the Mongolian formation in the distance seemed to be moving forward. The long sound of hukata sounded in the formation, and while the artillery battle was being held, thousands of soldiers from behind dismounted and set off their formation in front of the army.

"They are going to do it!" Zheng Yunming shouted, "We have to prepare too!"

He hurried down to the city with Bai Yijie. There were already a group of soldiers who were ready to fight under the city. Because of the success of the attack last night, the morale of the soldiers was boosted from the failure of the day. They were all preparing to climb to the city at any time to compete with the enemy who was attacking. The high-spirited emotions of the soldiers also affected Zheng Yunming. He said to Bai Yijie: "Natasi fought with us last year and did not get any advantage. This time, let's see how much he has grown."

While he was talking, he suddenly saw Hu Yanyu walking over with big stances, but what he was holding was not a weapon, but a three-stringed zither. Zheng Yunming asked, "The battle is coming soon, why are you carrying a musical instrument?"

Hu Yanyu bowed and said to Zheng Yunming: "The more you fight, the more you need to relieve your tension. Otherwise, your hands holding the hilt of the knife are shaking. How can you fight with the Hu people? This santong is the best way to relieve your emotions."

Bai Yijie said in surprise: "Didn't you think the general is also versatile?"

Hu Yanyu laughed: "Since I was a child, I wanted me to learn music and cultivate my sentiment, but I was naughty by nature and didn't learn the piano, but I learned the three-stringed pipa with the old man who was telling the story at the alley."

Bai Yijie also smiled and said, "Then he must have been here from the north. This thing is not owned by the Central Plains, but is a musical instrument loved by the people of the Northern Hu people. It is used a lot in the north and many of them are missing in the Southern Dynasties."

Hu Yanyu was also surprised: "Does the military advisor also understand the rhythm?"

"I just know a little bit." Bai Yijie said: "Since I learned from the teacher who talks about the comments, how about I talk about it here?"

"I'm afraid that the sing is not good, so the general will laugh at it." Hu Yanyu's words clearly meant that Zheng Yunming made a statement. Zheng Yunming smiled at the soldiers standing under the city and said, "How is it? Are you willing to listen to General Hu Yan's words?"

The soldiers shouted, "General Huyan will just say a paragraph and listen!" "But what should I say?"

Hu Yanyu said, "Don't stare at me, I only know these few paragraphs." As he spoke, Zheng Yunming had already told Han Feng to bring in a few round stools. Everyone sat down around Hu Yanyu, waiting for him to thrust Sanxian to start speaking.

Hu Yanyu sat down, pulled his posture, and said loudly: "Since that's the case, let's talk about a book from Li Hedong to guard Taiyuan, and I'll ask you all to be elegant."

He held Sanxian in his hand and tweaked his fingers lightly and vigorously. The sound of Sanxianqin was not as clear as that of a pipa, but it had a unique feeling of long and thickness. As soon as the slightly heavy sound sounded, it seemed to push Zheng Yunming's time and space forward for another four hundred years.

Hu Yanyu played a prelude and said loudly: "During the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty, An Lushan, the governor of Fanyang, coveted the Tang Emperor's country and raised an army to rebel. An Lushan held 150,000 elite soldiers, and was assisted by Shi Siming, Cai Xide, Yin Ziqi, and a group of powerful generals. No one in the Tang Dynasty was his opponent. Kaiyuan Tianbao's prosperous era was destroyed in a moment... "

The world is impermanent, Zheng Yunming thought, what a glorious time in the Kaiyuan prosperous era. If today's prosperity is behind the invasion of barbarians year after year, the border areas become ruins, and the burden on farmers is becoming heavier, just like an exquisite Jingdezhen porcelain, hiding many cracks that can be identified by the naked eye behind the exquisite and luxurious era. The Kaiyuan prosperous era is like a coral tree of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, with colorful body and exuding graceful and luxurious brilliance. The prosperous scene of "rice flowing and corn white, and public and private granaries are abundant" in the hymns of today's embarrassing Song Dynasty.

No, perhaps at the moment when this coral tree was emitting dazzling brilliance, the cracks that were not noticed by the human eye had quietly embedded inside. The super empire that was once powerful and prosperous had laid the foundation for failure at its most glorious peak.

The expansion of the Tubo war and the excessive investment of manpower and materials in the Western Regions exceeded the maximum of national strength. The monopoly and centralization of prime ministers in politics, and the uncontrollable indulgence of An Lushan caused by indulgence in border merits were the reasons for the collapse of the empire. When people were immersed in the prosperous scene of Kaiyuan's dreamlike dream, the root of disaster had been quietly buried.

Hu Yanyu said, "...... Li Guangbi was ordered by the Emperor of Tang to lead 5,000 troops from the northwest to cross the Yellow River and head straight to Hedong. The purpose was to ensure that Taiyuan City was not lost. In order to be the emperor, An Lushan rushed to capture all prefectures and counties in Hedong, Hebei, and cleared the obstacles for him to enter Chang'an Luoyang. This time, he actually sent a top general under the tent, Wang Shi Siming led 100,000 elite troops to attack Taiyuan. He also used the vanguard Cai Xide as the deputy commander. The army came to Taiyuan City in a mighty manner. Shi Siming rode his horse and took a sword to jump out of the formation and came to the city to call. He could only hear a gong sound on the top of the city, and the city gates opened wide. Five thousand men were cheering up their spirits and clear banners, leaving the city to show their formation. The generals led by the head were carrying a sword and wearing silver helmets, and shouted: "I am the governor of Hedong Jiedu, and the thief general Shi Siming, come and die quickly!"

Shi Siming was not in a hurry to fight and bowed to Li Guangbi and said, "General Li is polite. I know the origin of your Li family. You are not from the Central Plains Han people, and you are from Yanhuang Miao. Your Li family is from the same origin as us. They are all Hu people outside the Frontier. Your father Li Kailuo was originally the leader of the Khitan tribe. He joined the Tang Dynasty during the Wuji period and made many contributions. However, the Tang people regarded Marshal Li as the Hu people and did not trust him. They just used him to fight in the east and west, but did not give him a position to be the prime minister. Now that you are sent to defend Taiyuan, how can you be sincere to you? Only with you

Five thousand soldiers came to guard the important town of Taiyuan, which is really a joke. The general was originally a Hu person, and he was not of the same kind as the people in the Central Plains. Why should he suffer this rift and serve the Emperor Tang! Now the Emperor of Dayan is powerful and has millions of elite soldiers. The world is in love with him. When did the Hu people outside the border have such a glory? You are a rare general among my Hu people. Why don’t you give up on the darkness and serve the Emperor of Dayan with me, even if you are rich and rich, you can’t enjoy it all, and you don’t have to be furious anymore.’

Li Guangbi laughed at the sky and shouted to Shi Siming: "You are the nature of a dog, sheep, a beast, and you don't know the etiquette and education, so you make this crazy statement. I have a word, and the soldiers listen carefully:

I was a Khitan Hu people outside the border, but when I was in the opportunity, I surrendered to the Tang Dynasty. Since then, I have realized the importance of trust and righteousness and the teachings of the sages. Since then, all the generals and soldiers of the three armies have been excited. All the soldiers have been happy. My father surrendered to the Emperor of Tang and was named Duke of the Kingdom. He was loyal to the Tang Dynasty and served the officials. He is truly a loyal minister in the front of the official family! As a descendant of the Li family, I should regard loyalty and righteousness as family precepts and irreconcilable with the rebel thieves! I have always known the details of you and An Lushan bandits. You were originally a Hu people in the North of the Cross. You have been a rogue since childhood. You have relied on a sharp mouth to make a living for the Sogdians. Later, they were mixed into Lulong's army to serve as a military officer. This is the favor of the previous emperor. You have been promoted from a small soldier to a military governor.

The emperor's kindness to you can only be said to be a new parent, a second-generation grandmother! How dare you be a wolf and ambition to do usurp the breach! After you rise up, you will kill someone when you see it, and you will seize the treasures when you see it. The treasures swept across the villages and cities. The villages and cities are burned! Since ancient times, the nature of beasts is nothing more than this! Today, the loyal and righteous people wish you could not eat the flesh of you and the two of you. You are trembling and waiting for the arrival of the heavenly soldiers! How dare you gather together? Here is a false claim! Now the new emperor ascended the throne and sent me to guard Taiyuan, and capture you alive and offer you to the stairs. Today, you will meet the thiefs and come to die. It is exactly the same as the wish of the general. Shameless traitors, come and decide the victory and defeat with me!’

Shi Siming was furious when he heard this, and immediately waved an 82-pound steel mace and urged the horse to come straight to General Li. Li Guangbi was not panicked, so he raised the sword in his hand and put the mace in mid-air..."

He was talking about it as a lively thing, and a rapid sound of gongs suddenly came from the city, which was a command to call the army to come to the city to defend.

Zheng Yunming interrupted Hu Yanyu's wonderful storytelling and said loudly: "Li Hedong fulfilled his promise under the city of Taiyuan. Finally, the book is called history and has been remembered forever. Today it is our turn to go on the battlefield! Tell me, do you want to spread it thousands of years later and become the heroes in the hearts of thousands of generations of descendants!"

"I wish to die!" He was greeted by the earth-shaking cheers.

Zheng Yunming held the sword in his hand and was about to issue an order to issue a division when he suddenly saw a large group of people walking towards the far west street. At this time, the civilians were hiding and the army was preparing to face the enemy. Who was the one who ventured out on the street to face the cannon stones flying in from the enemy? Zheng Yunming looked at it and immediately felt troublesome.

A large group of women were all military wives from the Jing-E Dutong Department. The leader was not someone else, but his treasure Ru Ru Yue. Ru Yue was still wearing her beautiful bright silver-fine armor. Unfortunately, the amazing and light silver-lacquered treasure bow in her hand was taken back by Shi Wenhu since she got married and she was not allowed to use it at will. But she was the deputy Dutong family. Who dared to deal with it disrespectfully in the army? Someone immediately picked a horn bow seized on the battlefield that suited her, wrapped it in copper skin, painted it with silver as her matching bow. In addition to her, the family members of this large group of Jing-Chun army were all wearing knives and bows, and cleanly packed it up, as if they were ready to stand up at any time.
