Chapter 53 Provocation
Li Heng has no confidence, but it does not mean that Guo Ziyi has no confidence either.
Guo Ziyi had already planned the route for this siege. According to the plan, once the siege begins, at least 100,000 troops will appear in the north of Chang'an City, and try to force the rebels to leave the city in this direction to confront the Tang army head-on.
On this basis, Guo Ziyi divided the generals who could lead the troops into three waves, and he brought his main force and generals of the Shuofang Army to the center. The front army was mainly composed of Li Siye, the general of the cavalry whom Li Longji personally appointed, and brought him from the position of Shule Town envoy. In addition, Li Yan's 5,000 Suiyang cavalry, and the latter army was handed over to the Guanzhong Jiedushi Wang Sili.
Including Guo Ziyi, these three generals were all those who had almost never lost their previous battles with other Hu people or rebels, not to mention their deputy generals.
Such a lineup is basically the most powerful lineup that Li Heng can produce in Fengxiang at present.
However, this naturally does not include some famous generals who are not much worse than Guo Ziyi, such as Li Guangbi.
However, Li Guangbi just had the identity of being left behind in Taiyuan, the northern capital, smashed the siege of Shi Siming and others again and again in Taiyuan, and defeated the more with fewer.
If it weren't for Li Guangbi's strong performance in Taiyuan this year, once Taiyuan is gone, the entire Hedong Road would have belonged to the rebels, and it would be even more impossible for them to be planning the scene of Fengxiang's attack on Chang'an City.
You know, after Lingwu rushed to ascend the throne, the two first generals summoned were Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi. Moreover, both of them brought their troops to Li Heng's tent at the first time, which was enough to show their loyalty.
Of course, there was another person here. Li Qing often sighed why he didn't come here early, so as to try to stop a tragedy. The person who died in this tragedy was Gao Xianzhi.
A generation of famous generals was actually destroyed by a eunuch, which is why Li Neng did not hold back at all with Li Fuguo. In Li Neng's opinion, the eunuch should not appear in this world.
Your emperor is afraid that a man in the palace will attack your concubines, so you should be more maids? Besides, if your emperor can really impress all the concubines, even if there is a man, he will not be able to hook up with him? (Haha, it's too far!)
Of course, there must be one of the most critical figures in the central army. He can kill the enemy without getting on the horse, but he must be there, so this person is naturally Li Yu.
Li Heng was both the emperor and did not hold any official position as a marshal. Naturally, he could take his imperial guards to safely wait for news ahead in Fengxiang. If things were not good, he still had enough time and space to reunite with his old father in Shu.
Guo Ziyi did assign all the generals and soldiers in advance, and for this matter, he also wrote a letter to Suiyang City, telling Li that he, the vanguard, was going to work with Li Siye.
When Li Neng was unaware of this and was still busy with something to do when the servants' bones were busy, Li Siye was called to his mansion by Li Mi.
Li Siye is the kind of character who can tell he is a cruel person at a glance. He is seven feet tall and has thick eyebrows, big eyes, tiger back and bear waist, and bulging tendons and flesh are as if they are about to burst out from his clothes.
Li Siye was a Modao General under Gao Xianzhi's hands in his early years. As the name suggests, Modao General was a general who led a team of infantrymen using Modao. However, one thing is that even this general had to use Modao. Another thing is that this Modao is not an ordinary knife, and its weight almost exceeds forty kilograms. After saying that, if Li Siye is, he understands, right?
In addition, Li Siye also defeated Shiguo and Tuqishi with Gao Xianzhi, and gained the reputation of "General of the Supernatural Powers", which fully demonstrates that Li Siye not only has a good physique, but also has a sufficient head.
Li Siye is indeed not very familiar with Li Mi. Seeing that both Li Heng and Li Yu were respectful to this mountain man, he respected Li Mi very much, so he naturally had to go to Li Mi to find him.
"General of the Cavalry, you are the chief general of the former army in this battle. I wonder if the general has confidence?"
As one of the three giants in the Marshal's Mansion, Li Mi has no problem finding Li Siye to learn about this matter. Of course, Li Siye didn't think so much, and directly patted his chest and said, "If the rebels want to fight with our central army, unless the front army led by me dies, then step on my head!"
Li Mi nodded slightly, then looked at Li Siye and said meaningfully: "I wonder if the Deputy Marshal mentioned that King Jianning would take his five thousand cavalry who had just been trained for several months and join the general to meet the enemy in the front army. I wonder how the general would use these five thousand cavalry?"
Even when he reached this level, Li Siye did not think about what other meaning of Li Mi. He thought for a moment and replied again: "The five thousand cavalry of King Jianning directly obeyed the order of the deputy marshal. According to the deputy marshal's wish, these cavalrymen were probably going to another place to break the deadlock after following the front army for a charge?"
"I wonder if the general thinks that King Jianning has the ability to take this cavalry that has only been trained for several months?"
Li Siye is not a fool. If he didn't think about anything bad in the first two sentences, he would understand a little when he reached this point.
Li Mi has said this twice after only a few months of training. What does he mean? Isn’t he just telling Li Siye that Li’s five thousand cavalry is unreliable?
Li Siye lowered his head and thought deeply, and at that time he understood the link. As one of the most critical figures in persuading Li Heng to become emperor, King Jianning was thrown to Sui Yang by Li Heng just as the power of the Tang army improved a little. Anyone who has a little understanding of the royal family can understand the truth.
But to be honest, Li Siye really doesn't want to get involved in these things, he just wants to go into battle and kill more enemies.
"Is it real gold? You have to rely on fire to refine it before you can know it! Don't worry, sir, I will pay attention to this matter!"
After leaving such a saying that no one offended him, Li Siye directly found an excuse to leave Li Mi's mansion.
