According to the plan of the two in the letter, the vanguard of the 10th day of July would appear under Chang'an City first, and Shi Dakai led the main force to move slowly.

At most, it will not exceed July 13, and all 40,000 troops will arrive at the city of Chang'an.

Tan Lun will be in charge of Yanzhou, and this battle is commanded by Shi Dakai.

There are still tens of thousands of prisoners in Yanzhou, distributed among dozens of labor reform farms, planting potatoes and corn in the valleys.

During this period, the two men took the system farmers as the backbone and dispatched a small number of soldiers to serve as officers and generals, and absorbed some local farmers to form a militia team with a total force of more than 20,000.

The militia of 20,000 people is mainly responsible for maintaining the local daily order, guarding the prisoners, and deterring the remaining bandits and bandits around.

Although it is a militia team, because it is formed with direct soldiers and peasants as the core, its discipline and execution are stronger than that of many official troops.

Moreover, with the weapons and weapons seized in several previous wars, their combat effectiveness will not be much worse.

Only with these 20,000 militias could Shi Dakai lead the main force to the south with confidence and boldness.

According to their plan, they will send troops in two days, and at that time they will issue a proclamation to the Qin Dynasty and inform the world.

Moreover, according to Li Xu's instructions, the two of them relaxed the search for the defeated soldiers under Lin Ruhai that day, so many defeated soldiers will definitely appear outside Chang'an City in the past few days.

Of course, there must be many defeated soldiers who have died in the mountains and wild ridges of Yan'an Prefecture.

Although the two expressed these things in the letter in the tone of asking for instructions, they were basically sure that they would do this.

After all, I will not accept the orders of the outside king. Nowadays, communications are all based on manpower, and only run back and forth for hundreds of miles, even if people and horses can bear it, it is really too delayed.

So Li Xu fully delegated power to the two of them. Do whatever you think you should do. My lord just needs to know it.

Those two are direct descendants whom they can absolutely trust, and they are both famous generals with sharp eyes and rich experience. They don’t have to show their presence as their lord.

He suddenly realized how important it was to be a commander who could stand on his own, be both strategic and decisive in this era of extremely underdeveloped communication.

It is even more important than the emperor.

As long as the emperor doesn't do anything, he will discuss with his ministers more when encountering problems. Even if he can't be a wise ruler, he will at least be too stupid.

However, it is different to be a general who holds heavy troops on his own side, and his personal ability is quite important.

After putting down the letter, Li Xu's mood suddenly became a little excited.

After half a year of preparation, my lord, who has been an undercover agent for half a year, is he going to openly stand on the stage of fighting for the world?

It's really exciting to think about it.

However, he tried hard to calm his slightly excited mood and began to think about what he needed to do before the army arrived.

After thinking for a long time, I realized that he didn't need to do much.

Now the city defense has been completely controlled by itself. Although those non-direct generals do not know their true identities, Li Xu is confident that they will not make any bad things when they are in rebellion.

Let’s take a step back, if they dare to make trouble, Li Xu will definitely get rid of them as soon as possible without hesitation.

In addition to the 20,000 Yulin Guards in his hand, among the remaining eight guards of the Imperial Guards are the Longxiang Guards and the Jinwu Guards that guard the imperial palace, which are the most complete.

The other six guards have been drained several times and their combat effectiveness has been greatly reduced.

Moreover, the soldiers and generals of these guards only saw their comrades going to war but no one came back alive, which in itself caused all kinds of rumors.

Stimulated by all kinds of rumors, the morale of the military was basically gone.

Li Xu felt that he could send someone to continue to stimulate him, so that Li Yang could send someone to spread the rumors that the emperor was about to run away and wanted to use them as cannon fodder, so that the morale of the army would continue to decline.

When the battle comes, these people will not have much intention to fight. It is natural to see that the Tang army opposite is so fierce, and it will be a natural thing to collapse.

This is the case for rumors about the military, but the rumors about civilians and the powerful must be different.

Common people don’t really care about who becomes an emperor. As long as the new monarch can treat them well, they don’t even have to do anything. As long as they are not worse than the original monarch, they will welcome them.

Everyone who comes will have to pay food and taxes to bear corvee service. As long as they don’t let their lives be worse, they will be a good monarch.

If they can make their lives a little better, they will be a wise ruler.

It's a little better, it's okay to wear Yao, Shun and Yu's hats on you.

Therefore, for ordinary people, the focus of the rumors is that Tang Hou loves the people as much as his son. As long as everyone does not take the initiative to oppose Tang Hou, after Tang Hou, the descendant of Emperor Taizong of Tang, will not only not treat everyone harshly, but will also light taxes and pay less taxes to rest and recuperate so that everyone can live a good life.

Li Zicheng was so powerful that he welcomed him wherever he went, which was closely related to his slogan: "The King of Chuang will not pay food when he came."

Although Lao Li slapped himself in the face later, the previous sentence was still very lethal.

As for the powerful and the officials, their interests are different.

The so-called powerful people basically refer to the relatives of the Qin royal family and those nobles who are deeply bound to the Qin royal family.

The status and identity of these people are based on the existence of the Qin royal family.

Once the Qin State perishes, their interests will be the most direct and greatest losses.

Logically speaking, these people should be the most intense part of the foreign enemy's resistance, but in fact they are not.

The countless times of history have proved that these people are often the cowards and the fastest when the country is facing destruction.

They were like parasites that were equivalent to the country, parasites, parasitizing on the original dynasty and sucking blood desperately, and had long become a group of waste.

Once the original host dies, they will choose to change the host and continue to suck blood. In order to continue to be a parasite, they will cut off the original host's flesh and sacrifice it to the new host.

Therefore, the rumors about them should focus on winning over and tempting. As long as they can support their new master, everything else is easy to say.

Of course, they love to believe it or not.

But they actually have no choice but to die if they don’t believe it.

Want to run?

Li Xu won't give them a chance.

The city gates are all in my hands, so how can you still run away?

The last group is officials.

The official group is the most complex group.

When facing this crisis of national destruction, some people voluntarily kneel down and surrender, flattering and begging.

Some people maintain their integrity and leave without serving the New Dynasty to maintain their dignity.

Some people also fight to the death, until they are crushed to pieces without any regrets.

Therefore, this group is the group with the most variables and the group with the most severe differentiation.

Because their pursuits are different, some people seek personal gain, so they take their own interests as the starting point.

Some people plan for the country and take the interests of the country as the starting point.

Some people also seek the world, and take the safety of the people in the world as the starting point, and the level is obviously even more different.

The strategies should be different for these three types of people.

The first type of person focuses on temptation.

The second type of person cannot be used by himself, so he can only fulfill his loyalty and righteousness.
