Recreating the prosperous Tang begins with summoning players

Chapter 253 The Defeat of Qingqu
The next day, Guo Ziyi ordered the whole army to target Baqiao, and the whole army went to battle.

He personally commanded the troops, sitting in the middle army and launching an attack on the puppet Yan army.

Guo Ziyi personally put on the armor and commanded the battle on the front line, while the two military supervisors, Li Chu, the king of Guangping, and Li Fuguo, the eunuch who was close to the emperor, sat in the barracks and watched the soldiers gather towards Baqiao.

The first half of the battle went very smoothly. The defenders led by the puppet Yan general An Shouzhong lost their morale when facing the Tang army, and fled away one after another.

Li Chu, the king of Guangping who witnessed the Tang army's victory on the high platform, was overjoyed. Sure enough, as he expected, as long as the Tang army was dispatched, it would be devastating.

On the other side, Li Fuguo watched as the Tang army formed a long snake formation and quickly advanced all the way to Baqiao.

Li Fuguo also showed a smile on his face when he thought that he would get the credit for regaining Chang'an in Xijing.

He glanced at Li Chu, the king of Guangping not far away, and was surprised that King Guangping could persuade Guo Ziyi to send troops.

Li Fuguo planted his cronies in the army, so he naturally knew that Li Chu, the king of Guangping, went to Guo Ziyi's tent yesterday and persuaded Guo Ziyi to send troops today.

But what reason did King Guangping use to persuade Guo Ziyi, and how did he get Guo Ziyi to send troops honestly? Li Fuguo didn't know the details.

It seems that it is necessary to re-examine the alliance between himself and Queen Zhang.

Li Fuguo formed an alliance with Empress Zhang, and now Empress Zhang really favored the harem, and the emperor did have the idea of ​​changing the crown prince.

However, in the succession law of the Tang Dynasty, the role of the current emperor's ideas in the succession of the throne is not worth mentioning. If King Guangping is really capable, then the throne will still be his.

Li Fuguo thought in his mind, should he bet on both sides and show his favor to King Guangping?
At this time, the Tang army had already broken through the bridgehead of Baqiao, An Shouxin's puppet Yan army was defeated by Xiandeng's camp, and Guo Ziyi's commander-in-chief advanced a lot.

King Guangping said excitedly: "Come on! Raise the banner of this king! The left and right troops will follow this king!"

King Quang Binh also has a personal guard force, which is also the team that King Quang Binh saved in the counter-insurgency operations.

These more than 1000 people are all wearing gorgeous Mingguang armor, and they are the direct descendants of King Quang Binh.

Now that it was time to pick peaches, King Guangping was naturally unwilling to lag behind. He raised the flag himself, stepped down from the high platform and led the troops into battle.

When the Tang army raised a flag again, it still represented Li Tang's clan, the morale of the Tang army was even worse, and the puppet Yan even lost the morale of guarding the Baqiao.

Guo Ziyi frowned, the battle went really well.

An Shouzhong is the puppet general of Yan. Guo Ziyi has fought against him many times. An Shouzhong's fighting style is brave.

Although the puppet Yan is not as good as before, An Shouzhong still has four thousand elite soldiers, the most powerful of which is a cavalry, which is "Yi Xinghe" trained by An Lushan himself.

This cavalry, composed of border barbarians, fought very fiercely, and even cut off people's noses and ears as trophies.

From the four towns of Hedong to the march into Luoyang, Chang'an, it was this Yixinghe that took the lead, and it was also very famous on the side of the Tang army.

But when attacking Baqiao, Ye Xinghe did not appear, and the guards of Baqiao were ordinary soldiers.

Guo Ziyi was vigilant in his heart. An Shouzhong didn't use Yexinghe in a strategic location like Baqiao, so this army must be of great use.

Guo Ziyi called the guards around him, and prepared to restrain the soldiers on the front line to attack slowly, and be careful not to fall into the trap of the pseudo-yan.

But at this moment, the whole army was boiling again. Guo Ziyi looked back, only to see the Crown Prince, Generalissimo of the World's Army and Horses, and the military flag of Guangping King Li Chu appearing behind.

Guo Ziyi's first thought was that it was terrible!

With the appearance of Li Chu's military flag, the former army was really excited and moved faster.

The originally tight one-character long snake formation was pulled further apart, and the soldiers in front were busy rushing into Xijing to seize the first opportunity to regain Xijing.

Guo Ziyi's face was ugly. King Guangping's military flag was more gorgeous than his handsome flag, and it was held higher than his handsome flag.

Now the soldiers in front saw two military flags, and saw King Quang Binh's military flag moving forward rapidly, their morale was boosted and they attacked faster.

Guo Ziyi hadn't dispatched his personal guards yet, and the frontline troops had already passed Baqiao.

After Baqiao is the Golden Light Gate, which is the key to entering Chang'an. The Tang army entered the Golden Light Gate like a broken bamboo.

Li Chu in the rear was even more excited, taking down the Jinguang Gate, then Chang'an would be safe to defend, and the recovery of Xijing was just around the corner.

He urged the flag-bearers around him to move on, and he must take the credit for regaining Chang'an!

Two handsome flags appeared in the Tang army, and An Shouxin, the pseudo-Yan general guarding the Baqiao, was overjoyed to see it.

Guo Ziyi is a difficult opponent, but what Li Tang Guangping is, in An Shouxin's eyes, is a rotten fish and a rotten shrimp.

An Shouxin naturally knew the level of leadership of Li Tang's clan, and King Guangping's aggressive advance also made the Tang army looser. When the forward rushed into the Golden Light Gate, An Shouxin finally moved!

Ye Xinghe, lurking on the edge of the city wall, immediately mobilized. This brave barbarian cavalry gave up their horses, rushed up to Baqiao with their weapons in hand, and quickly recaptured Baqiao!

After recapturing Baqiao, the Tang army in the long snake formation was divided into two halves, and the Tang army who rushed across Baqiao and rushed into Jinguangmen immediately fell into chaos!

In fact, there were quite a number of forward troops, so they could turn around and attack the rear troops.

However, because Tang Jun was eager to make meritorious service, the front army rushed too loosely, and the officers could not restrain the soldiers to fight back.

An Shouxin then ordered the soldiers defending the city to shout, "The Tang army is defeated! The Tang army is defeated!"

This caused the former army to fall into a defeat.

The defeat of the former army was nothing to the 10,000+ army of the Tang Dynasty. The Tang army crowded on the Baqiao was blocked by the Yixing River, and fell into a command failure.

A large number of soldiers crowded on the Baqiao, and the soldiers of Yixinghe were all wearing grimace masks, which scared the soldiers on the bridge back.

The soldiers behind rushed forward, and the soldiers in front retreated. The wide Baqiao fell into chaos. Tang Jun began to trample on himself, and some soldiers were squeezed off the Baqiao.

At this time, An Shouxin ordered Yi Xinghe in the back row to mount his horse, and started a powerful cavalry charge towards Baqiao!

This time Tang Jun was beaten badly. Guo Ziyi had already seen that the situation was not good, and began to order the drummer to slow down the drumming, and re-establish a defense line at the other end of the Baqiao.

But at this time, King Guangping, who didn't know the situation in the rear, was still advancing. The soldiers who saw the Wang Shuai Banner of Guangping didn't hear the drum signal, and they didn't know the changing situation on the front line, so they continued to advance.

Tang Jun's command was chaotic, and An Shouxin seized the opportunity. This Ye Xinghe cavalry broke through the Baqiao!

When the Tang army in the back row was about to make meritorious service, they were so frightened that they lost their will to fight when they saw the grimacing cavalry charging fiercely.

Tang Jun who retreated collided with Tang Jun who rushed forward in the front row, and the puppet Yan cavalry was confused before they rushed over.

Defeat like a mountain!
