Recreating the prosperous Tang begins with summoning players

Chapter 637 The Predicament of Historian Father and Son

Outside Luoyang City, Shi Siming is in the tent.

From Shi Siming to Shi Chaoqing, all the generals looked depressed.

Since the last time the Aurora airship transported grain to Luoyang City, for the past three days, the airship has taken off every day, and then airdropped grain into Luoyang City.

Shi Siming also sent people to chase after the airship. The airship was launched from Xingyang City, but Xingyang City's defenses are also very strict, which is a tougher bone than Luoyang City.

The airship above the head would pass by Shi Siming's camp majesticly every day, and then drop a bunch of shells and then go to Luoyang City to airdrop food, and that damn Zhang Xun actually lifted the airdropped wooden box to the city wall. Depressed, I no longer have the fighting spirit I had when I went south.

Shi Siming knew that going on like this was not an option. Since the plan to trap Zhang Xun to death had gone bankrupt, he could only forcefully attack Luoyang City at the risk of loss.

At this time, Shi Siming cursed again. The strange airship brought some more bombs these days, and bombed the camp where Shi Siming built the siege equipment, which greatly slowed down the progress of the construction of the trebuchet.

Shi Siming killed several craftsmen and ordered them to speed up, and only then did he make a few siege engines.

With insufficient siege engines and such low morale, this siege is destined to be a tough battle with heavy losses.

Shi Siming's handsome face also showed a ferocious expression, he slapped the table and said:
"The siege will start early tomorrow morning! Don't give Zhang Xun a chance to breathe!"

He concentrated his troops at the west gate of Zhuozhou, and if he saw that the situation was not good, he would immediately flee from the west gate and rush to Taiyuan City, the governor of Hedong.

Today, the guards of Zhuozhou City are all soldiers under Tian Chengsi's command.

The soldiers cheered up a little bit, but everyone started to make eye contact again. The siege must be done first. The sacrifice of the first siege is the greatest, and no one wants their subordinates to die.

Hearing that Shi Siming had sent his son and direct descendants, the rest of the generals took command.

But after An Qingxu murdered his father and usurped the throne, not to mention military leaders like Shi Siming, even military leaders like Cui Youqian and An Shouzhong didn't listen to An Qingxu very much.

Nan Jiyun took the lead and was very much supported by his soldiers.

Tian Chengsi had resentment in his heart, but after An Qingxu succeeded to the throne, he withdrew his father's veterans to the rear, even if he was dissatisfied, he could only accept orders.

All these years of fighting in the south and north, there has never been a loss. These private generals and private ministers are also the reason why Tian Chengsi can still be reused after he was able to attach himself to Shi Siming in Hedong.

During the Linzi battle, Shi Chaoyi discovered that Nan Jiyun was very difficult to deal with.

The soldiers had no better way, seeing the airships delivering food to the city day by day, it was not an option to go on like this, the 20 army consumed a huge amount every day, so Shi Siming would definitely suffer more if he and Luoyang were consumed like this.

In troubled times, the soldiers under his command are his own capital. If he didn't have the soldiers under him, Shi Siming wouldn't rely on them so much.

This Nan Jiyun charged so fiercely, he didn't expect to fight so delicately!

With players, a communicator that transcended the times, Shi Chaoyi gradually fell into a passive position when he entered the mountain.

What makes Shi Chaoyi even more uncomfortable is that because he is not familiar with the terrain of the mountain, his army cannot go deep into the mountain for supplies.

For Tian Chengsi, it was not a good deal for his own soldiers and the Tang army to defend the historian Fan Yang.

In fact, these people are also speculators from Hedong. If it is not profitable, they will not rebel with Shi Siming.

As for the players Zhang Duanyang stayed in Qingzhou, they stayed in the Qingzhou Army to become the backbone of the Qingzhou Army, and made up for Nan Jiyun's shortcomings in logistics supplies, army organization, and tactics.

These armies established through the township party, blood relationship, and master-student relationship are naturally powerful in battle.

Now that he leads the army alone, he needs to worry about these things.

When Ji County fell, Tian Chengsi in Zhuozhou became even more frightened, and kept writing letters to Shi Chaoyi asking for help.

But there are also many factions internally, and there are also competitions among them.

Now Shi Siming is in charge of Hedong. In addition to his own cronies and generals, he has also recruited some old subordinates of Anlu Mountain back then.

After fighting for a day, Shi Siming looked at the unscathed Luoyang City and had no choice but to retreat.

Tian Chengsi used to be a fierce general under An Lushan's command. After An Qingxu killed his father, Tian Chengsi and Shi Siming returned to Hedong.

If Shi Siming is compared to Hu chiefs, these military leaders are the patriarchs of the major tribes.

So Shi Chaoyi could only keep writing letters back to Tian Chengsi, and ordered him to defend Zhuozhou City. As long as he defended Zhuozhou City, there would be hope, and he could lead the army to encircle and wipe out the Tang army in turn.

In addition, Shi Chaoyi received bad news one after another from the rear.

"The last general takes orders!"

Under Shi Siming's win over, Tian Chengsi took refuge in Shi Siming, and was then arranged to assist Shi Chaoyi in Fanyang.

In Fanyang, Yu Chixin's army entered Jixian County, and the defenders of Jixian County only took one day to retreat to Zhuozhou City in defeat.

Shi Siming's direct lineage is the royal family on the prairie, the most powerful one, but it is impossible for him to swallow all the tribes on the prairie.

After offending the historian, is Tian Chengsi going to surrender to the Tang Dynasty?Otherwise, where did his supplies for so many troops come from?
After understanding the combat effectiveness of this Tang army, Tian Chengsi also formulated a strategy for himself.

"The end is here!"

The failure to attack Linzi was due to the gap in military strength, but when Shi Chaoyi entered Qingzhou, the situation quietly changed.

Seeing the appearance of his generals, Shi Siming was furious again, but there was nothing he could do.

But Nan Jiyun had already passed the best period of studying at that time, he himself also loved martial arts and despise literature, and he didn't like such things as military books.

There are a large number of mountains between Qingzhou and Zizhou. Nan Jiyun hid in the mountains and started a guerrilla fight with Shi Chaoyi.

But Nan Jiyun's supply was constant. He was able to fight guerrillas in the mountains and feed the army at the same time. Shi Chaoyi really couldn't figure out how to do it.

Hiding in the mountains, Nan Jiyun changed the cavalry into infantry, acting like ghosts in the mountains.

The 30 troops were dispatched together, and the momentum can be said to be very large, but for Zhang Xun, who once stood firm in Suiyang and blocked the [-] troops of the puppet Yan, all this was nothing more than a trivial matter.

He was picked up by Zhang Xun, who taught him to read and write, and taught him the art of war and martial arts.

Fortunately, Zhang Duanyang left him a lot of talents. Now that the Qingzhou Army can move from Zizhou to Qingzhou, there are still not many staff reductions and the supply is smooth. These are the help of the players.

And the Hedong army itself is a private army system with the Hu people's military system.

When he was in Anlu Mountain, Marshal An was the sun in Hedong, and Marshal An was what he said.

In the past, Nan Jiyun fought under Zhang Xun's command. Whether it was strategy formulation or logistics supplies, Zhang Xun was in charge of all these. He only needed to take the lead in the charge.

The soldiers under Tian Chengsi's command were all formed when he was the lieutenant general of Anlu Mountain.

On the second day, it was sunny again, and Shi Siming's troops who besieged Luoyang began to attack the city.

Now it can only launch a strong attack.

Nan Jiyun has always respected scholars, and he treated the military masters left to him by Zhang Duanyang very courteously, which also gave the players a chance to show their fists.

"I order you to lead the [-] elite troops from the headquarters tomorrow, and go up first for the army, and start attacking the city from the west wall!"

This guy Nan Jiyun is a strong general who can charge out of Suiyang with dozens of people. The role of a strong general in this era is far greater than that in the era of hot weapons.

A fierce general who can break through the enemy's formation is the strongest assaulter in the entire army.

The occupation of Luoyang City is becoming increasingly anxious, and Shi Chaoyi, who has just invaded Qingzhou, is not easy.

Whenever Shi Chaoyi sent out a small group of troops, they would be eaten by Nan Jiyun, and once the large group of troops were eliminated, Nan Jiyun disappeared immediately.

Ji County used to be the seat of Youzhou. This historical city already existed in the Qin and Han Dynasties. It used to be the seat of Youzhou, and now it is the gateway to Zhuozhou, the seat of Fanyang.

Shi Siming sighed, at this moment, if he didn't work hard, the military leaders under his hands would not work hard.

Zhang Xun guarded the city very well. Luoyang City was originally a strong city, but now it has a stable source of food, and the morale in the city is even higher.

But in terms of emotion and reason, he is now Shi Chaoyi's general, and if he gives up Zhuozhou without a fight, he will be cast aside by the people of the world.

But Shi Chaoyi himself was still trapped in the mountains of Qingzhou, and Shi Siming was besieging Luoyang, and he couldn't spare any manpower to rescue Fan Yang.

Tian Chengsi is not a fool either, now that Fan Yang's situation is like this, he can see that he will not get support.

Nan Jiyun came from a humble background. When he was young, he made a living as a boat operator on the river, that is, a punter.

So Shi Siming pointedly said: "Shi Chaoqing!"

Tian Chengsi is a family of generals in Liaodong, and his family is a family of generals with a high reputation in Hedong.

Anyway, the Tang army was small in number, and it was impossible to completely defend Zhuozhou City. As long as there was a symbolic resistance, they would flee, and the Shi family and his son could not say anything.

Taiyuan is a great city in the world, and the difficulty of defense is much easier than that of Zhuozhou City, which is surrounded by plains.

Moreover, Tian Chengsi had other thoughts. If he could rely on Taiyuan, with Taiyuan as the foundation, he could also separate himself from one side.

However, Tian Chengsi had a good plan, and Yu Chixin stopped after capturing Ji County.

Yu Chixin just continued to hold the public trial meeting, moved the tyrants from Jixian County to Liaodong, and re-equalized the land for the people, but stopped marching to Zhuozhou City.
