Chapter 1082 The lion opens his mouth

In the battle of Tianmenling, the Tang army first defeated and then won, and the Khitan won first and then lost. However, the real winner was the Dubo Blackshirt Army, who fell from the sky, who led the army to block the sword camp led by Yue Wuniang who killed Li Huaixiu. However, the latter was impatient to perfunctory An Lushan, and retreated early and went back to take charge of Duboya. As for Luo Ying, he did not rashly come forward to compete with An Lushan for military achievements, but changed his appearance. Xue Chao, who was a pseudonym Zeergen, took more than a dozen people as messengers to contact An Lushan. After he took many war horses and other spoils without hesitation, he returned to the Khitan tent and the military and horses behind the palace to join.

In this way, he had 30,000 soldiers and horses, and he was even more supportive of the Duji Department, who had quietly returned and had a small half of the military power of the Xi clan, responded, and was not worried that An Lushan would have any bad thoughts when he took advantage of the victory.

An Lushan didn't care about these mysterious reinforcements who came and went like the wind. His previous experience of dying and his soldiers had accumulated too much anger. He naturally indulged his subordinates to kill prisoners and surrender, and swept away the defeated Khitan troops who fled from all directions. When Hou Xiyi sent someone to report to the black-shirted army, he said that the black-shirted army sent a messenger to see him, his eyes flashed and he thought about it. When he asked the people sent by Hou Xiyi and learned that he had no idea of ​​the other party's background, he immediately ordered: "Let Hou Xiyi bring people to see me in person."

The battle made the Tang army exhausted both physically and mentally. Hou Xiyi and Xue Chao and his group walked along the way, and saw countless casualties around them. There were still many soldiers who had survived the disaster, slumped on the ground tiredly, with a group of listlessness and empty eyes. This is a common phenomenon after the defeat, but the problem is not defeated now, so this phenomenon is intriguing. You must know that among the 60,000 soldiers and horses that An Lushan used this time, the Han and the Bolivian soldiers were mixed. It can be said that they were all elite soldiers and horses in Youzhou and Pinglu Town, but they almost broke here. However, the Khitan used less than 30,000 soldiers and horses to create such a dead end.

Thinking of An Lushan's ambitious plan to attack and defeat the enemy, Hou Xiyi couldn't help but sneer inwardly.

He did not know Xue Chao, and in order to prevent others from seeing the flaws, he did not talk to the other party along the way until he brought the person to An Lushan.

Compared with the previous chaotic battles and when An Lushan ran for life, the two towns of the military coach had obviously had their appearance, but they had no time to change their clothes. At first glance, they were as fat as a ball, their clothes were wrinkled, and their armor was messy, and they could not say that they were majestic. Xue Chao and An Lushan had no grudges, but he knew that An Lushan and the powerful prime minister Li Linfu were in a sympathetic manner. The reason why the Xue family ended up like this was that the emperor was indifferent, and Li Linfu and Wu Huifei were also the biggest promoters, so when they met, he just bowed arrogantly.

"My family, Shijin, asked me to bring a word to Marshal An. This victory was given to Marshal as a gift for the meeting, but at the cost, he asked the Marshal for the Khitan den and the Songmo Governor's Office as compensation."

Not to mention An Lushan raised his eyebrows in surprise, the generals around him who heard the news were all shocked. Those who could be called Shi Jin were undoubtedly the leader of a clan or a tribe. Could it be that this mysterious army came from a tribe of the Xi tribe or a Khitan? Wu Chengqing had been dealing with the Khitans for many years, but when he heard the people who came in Chinese with a straight-talk, he asked, "Which is the Shi Jin you said?"

"My family Shijin does not belong to the Khitan nor the Xi tribe, but the Lord of Dubo"

Dubo is one of the Tielite tribes. Over the years, it has gradually become famous in the north of Mo. An Lushan is not unfamiliar with it. It is said that he has 60,000 people and 40,000 soldiers. He is right in the west of the Songmo Governor's Office where the Khitan is located and the Raole Governor's Office where the Xi tribe is located. But he never expected that the other party would send troops to Tianmenling at this time. While relieving his great trouble, he also seized rich spoils. When he turned around, he even asked for the Khitan den with him, and his ambition was obvious. Thinking of this, he did not agree or refuse directly, but asked nonsense: "How many soldiers did your family bring this time?"

"The good coach An learned that my general is here to lead 30,000 troops."

An Lushan sent 60,000 troops himself, claiming to be 150,000. If calculated in this way, the opponent's troops should only be more than 10,000. An Lushan had just developed a bit of malicious intention, and saw that the messenger's mouth was a bit mockery. Thinking of the black-shirted army's invincibility when it broke into the fierce war, he looked at the generals under his command at this moment, let alone the soldiers, and he gave up this unrealistic idea. However, he was unwilling to accept the other party's threat. After a few times of confrontation, he found that the other party was invincible, so he snorted in anger.

"How can such a big event be easily decided in just a few words? Do you dare to come to see me in person?"

"My family said that if the general is interested, you might as well go ahead ten miles from Tianmenling to meet in the Khitan den."

An Lushan originally thought that the other party was afraid that he would be bad, so he got a lot of benefits and then escaped without a trace. Who knew that he had occupied the Khitan den in such a big way, and even acted as if he was not afraid of him or the Khitan soldiers were revenge. But when he thought about the other party, he was stationed only ten miles away from the Tang army, and he felt as if there was a thorn piercing his throat, and he couldn't vomit it out or swallow it. With the generals around him, he certainly wouldn't be able to gain other people's ambition to destroy his majesty. He immediately snorted coldly: "Of course I will go and meet him."

He said this, but after An Lushan left Xue Chao and his group, he immediately ordered the reorganization of the troops. It would be fine if this was not rectified. In the evening, when Hou Xiyi and others tried their best to gather their troops, he was shocked to find that the 60,000 troops he brought had been traveling day and night, and after being ambushed early in the morning, there were only about 30,000 left. Of course, it was not that the Tang army had actually killed more than 30,000 people after a war, but that many of the people and horses had fled from the battlefield after the collapse. I don’t know where the scattered soldiers and raiders who were disturbing the situation later had long known where they went.

At this time, the sun was gradually setting, and he was already scared by the head-on attack of the Khitan soldiers. An Lushan dared not go to the Khitan den to meet with the man Dubojijin. So, on the grounds that it was too late, he sent Xue Chao to send someone back to report the news. He ordered his soldiers to divide the soldiers into two shifts, half vigilant and half camping on the spot. The weather is now midsummer in the south, but in Liaodong, it is chilly after nightfall, especially many people are injured, and moans are heard one after another in the middle of the night. How many people sleep well?
