Chapter 163 [I decided to let them fight] This chapter is the beginning of the Anshi Rebellion(2/2)
"You guys have been arguing for three days, but they have never been able to get a result. Since that's the case, I'm arbitrary..."
When the emperor said this, his eyes slowly glanced at the audience, and then his tone was slow and he made a decision:
"If An Lushan wants to raise an army, then let him raise an army. Just 50,000 border troops, so what can I do when I enter the pass? My dear friends don't need to make a fuss, just accompany me to watch a fun in Chang'an."
"As for Guo Ziyi, I have an impression of that boy. He is a naughty man and has a very stubborn temper. Especially when he was in martial arts, this boy seemed to have some rifts with An Lushan. Taking advantage of this opportunity, I guess he also wants to fight An Lushan..."
"Hahahaha, military generals should have the bloodiness of military generals. Let them beat them, and let them roll up their sleeves and beat them hard."
"Whoever wins will be right, whoever loses will be admitted to the loss."
"I am the lord of the Tang Dynasty. Is it a king's minister in the shore of the territory? Even if a general dies in this battle, will I lack other generals looking forward to loyalty?"
"Whether An Lushan dies or Guo Ziyi dies, it doesn't matter. Just let them fight. Whoever dies will give up the position of general, just let me take it to reward people..."
"Hahaha, Yang Guozhong, you don't have to wink. The reason why I decided like this is to give you the benefits. Your sister begs me every day and asks me to arrange a good job for you. That's right, a good job is coming. When the two generals decide the winner, the dead person will be rewarded with you."
The entire court hall was in a mess again.
Almost audible needles can be heard.
Whether it was a loyal minister or a treacherous minister, his face was extremely embarrassing at this time.
No one expected that the emperor would be so stupid, and he watched An Lushan raise his troops and Guo Ziyi faced the battle. After the death, he would take the position to reward people.
And the reward was Yang Guozhong, the dog who relied on his sister to take power. This dog was useless and useless except for his powerful ability and arrogant personality.
Your Majesty is really stupid!
The Tang Dynasty is in turmoil!
Whether loyal or treacherous, I sighed in my heart at this moment.
...
The foolish emperor announced the severance of the dynasty, and the ministers left one after another with affliction. However, few people noticed that several ministers remained quietly.
For example, the Prince of Wuyang walked slowly in the palace after the scattered court, as if he was enjoying the scenery, as if he was walking casually, until a little eunuch appeared inadvertently and quietly led the Prince of Wuyang into the deep palace.
For example, General Li seemed to be on duty after the scattered court, but after only a while, he suddenly stood up and went out. While walking leisurely, he was also taken away by a small eunuch.
There are also old Prime Minister Zhang Jiuling, Censor Yan Zhenqing, Minister of War, Minister of Revenue, Minister of Works...
These people seemed to be staying inadvertently and enjoying the scenery at the foot of the palace. However, as time goes by, they are all introduced to the deep palace by the little eunuch.
Because it was dispersed, it did not attract the attention of the court officials from beginning to end.
But when these people gathered, the topics of discussion were extremely serious.
...
Deep in the palace, there is a side hall.
Emperor Xuanzong of Tang had a deep face and a deep look of worry.
"Dear friends, how should we deal with this matter? An Lushan raised 50,000 troops to enter the pass. It seems that he had submitted a memorial to me, but the Hundred Cavalry Office had already reported that he had sent a large army at the same time as the memorial..."
"In other words, he sent troops while reporting. The 50,000 elite border troops are probably now entering Shandong."
"And Guo Ziyi's command now has only 10,000 soldiers, and they are all new recruits. They have not been able to train for more than half a year... The most important thing is that they have never experienced a battle formation."
"I'm very worried, afraid that he can't hold on to this game."
"If he could not hold on to this game, the 50,000 troops that An Lushan entered the pass would likely become 190,000. At that time, it would probably no longer be 'revenge on personal humiliation', but rather cholera Tang."
