Chapter 6 Soldiers approaching the city

The following conversation is no longer nutritious.

Li Ye came here in time, afraid of being exposed, so he kept his words hidden.

Du Rangneng also said that he was the first to hide.

The two of them said a few more words in confusion, and Du Rangneng said goodbye and left.

I didn't mention the current incident of the three towns raising troops to commit crimes.

Li Ye was extremely confused when he saw Du Rangneng away.

His original idea was to join Li Keyong and his son, so he would save himself from trouble, and there might not be a good result.

But after talking to Du Rangneng today, he was a little shaken again.

Let’s join, the key is that Li Keyong and his son are not the final winners. Even if Li Cunxu is big and can accept him, what about the arrogant soldiers and generals under his command? He has killed himself and can ensure his safety? Even if he knows the historical process, he can ensure that the people in power are friendly to him after every mutiny? There are too many uncertain factors, and living to that era is the biggest uncertain factor itself.

If you don’t seek refuge, this road is too dangerous and fighting alone is too hard.

Forget it, let’s take a look one step at a time.

In his previous life, Li Ye was not an ambitious person, otherwise he would not have been in sales for five or six years, and he would still have a salary of five or six thousand yuan a month.

But today's biggest gain is Du Rangneng.

One of the great men who was hidden deep, I don’t know what Zhaozong did, so I turned a blind eye to him, but instead believed in Zhang Jun and others.

The first person to arrive was Han Jian, the governor of Zhenguo Army. There was no way, he was closest to Chang'an.

But he was not stupid either. He was only blocked at the east gate of Chang'an City and was not in a hurry to attack.

Li Ye originally wanted to take advantage of the enemy's foothold and let the Shence Army attack, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Sun Dezhao, the commander of the Shence Army's left Shence Army, came back on the pretext that the troops were not in place.

Li Ye also knew about the situation of the Shence Army. He had no combat power and was defeated by Li Cunxiao and Li Keyong one after another, which was basically useless.

The remaining defeated generals are useless, and their combat effectiveness will definitely not keep up with Han Jian's eight thousand towns of the army.

The Zhenguo Army’s name sounds nice, but it’s not Zhenguo, but the Chaos Kingdom!

Three days later, Wang Xingyu, the governor of Bining Jie, led more than 10,000 troops to block the northern gate of Chang'an.

One day later, Li Maozhen led an army of 80,000 to come from the west. Fengxiang was only more than 300 miles away from Chang'an. The cavalry could reach the city in one day, and the infantry was almost done for three days. Li Maozhen deliberately delayed for five days to put pressure on Tang Ting.

Chang'an was finally surrounded by a group of 100,000 troops.

Li Ye looked at the enemy troops in all directions like a tide, and was shocked and began to worry about whether Chang'an would defend or not.

In fact, he knew the answer in his mind. If he absolutely couldn't defend it, there would be ghosts if the Shen Ce Army was reliable. The main reason was that the Shen Ce Army was not the same as himself.

Fortunately, Li Maozhen was not in a hurry to attack. Looking at the world, Chang'an City is definitely one of the best cities. Even if it can conquer Chang'an, Li Maozhen would have to knock off a few old teeth.

Forces are the lifeblood of these vassal states, and any loss of strength is fatal!

As a hero, Li Maozhen could not have known this truth. What he wanted was a soldier who would defeat others without fighting, and it would be better for Li Ye to give up resistance.

But how could Li Ye, who knew the direction of history, surrender?

Zhu Wen could tolerate Tang Ting's relentlessness, but he would never allow the integration of Li Maozhen and Tang Ting.

Li Keyong would not sit idly by and watch Li Maozhen get big in Guanzhong.

This is not in the interests of all parties.

After thinking through these things, Li Ye no longer worried. As long as he is not kidnapped by Li Maozhen, it is enough. If he really fights, all the big men will come to mediate. This is the same as the international politics of later generations.

But all the premise is that the Shence Army can withstand the early siege of the vassal coalition forces.

The city is broken, and there is no need to say anything. The balance is broken, and the big guys can only interfere with force.

This is also the biggest test Li Ye traveled through time.

Dong, Dong, Dong--

The mighty war drums resounded throughout the earth.

This was the first time Li Ye experienced ancient wars personally, and he felt that his blood was rising.

However, the passion of the Shen Ce Army around him was definitely not rising, and he looked dirty and lost in momentum before he could fight.

Fortunately, Li Maozhen only made a tentative attack and tested the will of the defenders in Chang'an City.

There are no artillery in this era, and if you want to break through Chang'an, you can only use human life. Even if the Shen Ce Army is not determined to defend the city, it is enough for Li Maozhen to drink a pot.

So after leaving behind thousands of corpses, Li Maozhen retreated.

However, the Shen Ce Army also suffered huge losses, almost eight or nine hundred.

Li Ye saw the whole process with his own eyes. If he hadn't been the emperor, he would have collapsed if he didn't do it well.

Although Li Ye had no military talent, it can be seen that the Fengxiang army siege was weak, and some of them were even white-bearded old men.

Even so, the casualties of the Shence Army were nearly one to one.

This is not a good sign.

If Li Maozhen plays really, Chang'an City will be really broken.

Li Ye was so anxious that there was still a way out for others to surrender, but the consequences of surrendering by himself were extremely miserable.

"Please return to the palace!" Wei Zhaodu and other old ministers came to persuade Li Ye.

When Chang'an City is broken, can you rest assured when you return to the palace?

Li Ye did not doubt the loyalty of these old ministers, but no one could solve their problems.

For example, Wei Zhaodu, in history, Zhaozong sent him to recover Xichuan, and lost his troops and generals. He had no contribution to three years of poverty. He handed over the military power to Wang Jian. Wang Jian fought hard and took over the entire Sichuan and Shu, and made himself king.

At this moment, the Fengxiang Army war drums sounded again.

Li Ye looked at the rebels surging from the West and was shocked: Li Maozhen is really active!

The momentum of the siege this time was different.

The arrows were raining, and there were eaves on the city tower blocking it and could not shoot Li Ye. The ministers around him were panicked, not because they were afraid of being injured, but because they were really worried about Li Ye.

The Shen Ce Army guarding the city hid behind the scepter, with no casualties.

After many wars at the end of the Tang Dynasty, the quality of the soldiers was speechless.

But then, under the fierce attack of Fengxiang Army, the Shence Army was completely suppressed, and some soldiers even began to escape.

Dong, Dong, Dong--

Li Ye had no choice but to beat the war drum by himself to inspire the morale of the army a little.

But it still cannot save the defeat of the Shen Ce Army.

The soldiers of Fengxiang Army were like screaming wild wolves, not afraid of swords and guns, and went crazy.

On the other hand, the Shen Ce Army was weak. Although its armor, swords, guns and other equipment were better than the enemy, and it was supported by Chang'an Gaocheng, it was suppressed and beaten by Fengxiang Army.

This would not work. Li Ye lamented in his heart. He thought it was very good. As long as he could withstand it, Li Maozhen was afraid of the losses and did not dare to force the attack on the city. However, he still overestimated the fighting will of the Shence Army and underestimated the strength of the Fengxiang Army!

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, any of these vassal states were at the level of a big boss against the surrounding alien races. Li Maozhen's mixing from a big-headed soldier into a prince was definitely not a frivolous person.

Li Maozhen is so awesome, not to mention Zhu Wen and Li Keyong.

Li Ye's heart was trembling.

Just as he was thinking about it, the west city wall was even more dangerous, and many Fengxiang troops had already climbed up.

These rebels were covered in blood, not knowing whether they were their own or their enemies, and their eyes were as bright as wounded wild wolf. Standing on the city wall, it was like a wolf entering a flock of sheep, two or three people, and the dozen or so Shen Ce troops around him were afraid to go up and take up the battle.

The situation was in jeopardy, and Li Ye wished he could take the sword and go to the death.

The old minister beside him stood in front of him, letting his thoughts die.

A scholar who has no use.

Li Ye couldn't help but sigh, and at the same time he had another idea, why don't he run away now?

But just thinking about it, he was the emperor in Chang'an City. After leaving Chang'an City, he would be nothing. As long as Li Maozhen joined forces with a few eunuchs to establish a new emperor again, it would be like playing.

The emperor's identity is Li Ye's biggest bargaining chip at present. If he loses it, in this era when his life is like a mustard of grass, Li Ye really has nothing.

There are more and more Fengxiang troops climbing up the city wall, and the Shence Army is about to collapse.

Suddenly thunder came from the city wall.

How can there be thunder in sunny days and sunny days?

After listening carefully, it turned out to be the sound of horse hooves trampling on the city wall.

Li Ye looked up the city tower and saw a white-faced young general leading more than a hundred cavalry to rush forward. Many Shence Army, who had no eyesight, were knocked away.

The arrogant Fengxiang Army never expected a team of cavalry to break out on the city wall.

In this era, the cavalry was suppressing the infantry, especially in such a narrow range of the city wall, and there was no place to hide. They were directly knocked down to the city wall, leaving a string of screams.

The white-faced young general waved a long silver spear and picked up several brave Fengxiang troops one after another.

Li Ye couldn't help but cheer in his heart, a good brave general.
Chapter completed!
