Chapter 59

Li Siye's most annoying thing in most of his life is the silly people, and his favorite is the person with temperament. Whether Li Li in the past or Li Li in the present, in his opinion, they are all such people with temperament.

Li Siye also stuffed a large piece of chicken into his mouth, and chewed it while saying, "Will the King of Jianning be confident when he will go to war tomorrow?"

"Hmph, the enemy is indeed quite large in number and its combat effectiveness is not bad, but General Cavalry is relieved. We may get some blood, but this Chang'an City is from our Tang Dynasty."

Similarly, Li Qing also said this while chewing the chicken legs.

While they were chatting and laughing in the big tent, the soldiers outside were very nervous.

They knew that from the moment they arrived here, they had completely fallen into the eyes of the enemy, and the enemy might attack at any time. This kind of tension cannot be passed by just taking a few deep breaths.

The two of them drank a few more sips of wine in front of each other, and Li Siye finally spoke again.

"Before the prince returned to Fengxiang County, Li Mi told me that the prince's five thousand cavalry had only been trained for more than half a year, but I don't know how much worse it is than the Uighur cavalry. I wonder what the prince said?"

Li Siye was talking, but his eyes were always staring at Li Yan, but Li Yan was still focused on dealing with the flesh in his hands, and his expression did not change at all.

"What he said is true, what can I argue about?"

The sentence Li Qing said lightly seemed to be the person Li Mi said had nothing to do with him.

"So the prince has accepted that your cavalry is not trained enough?" After drinking, Li Siye spoke in a tight manner, obviously trying to express his temper.

"I recognize that I have only trained for more than half a year. Now, the combat effectiveness of my Suiyang cavalry is not stronger than that of the Uighur cavalry. But there is one thing, it is enough to recover Chang'an City, and there is one thing. Give me another two years. Even if the Uighur cavalry comes, I will not be afraid!"

Li Yi didn't even look up at Li Siye's eyes, but he still looked like he didn't look up or open his eyes, which did not affect his mood of eating meat at all.

"You should know that after Li Fuguo and Zhang Liangdi lost power, Li Mi had no one to restrain himself. He wanted His Majesty to make King Guangping the crown prince as soon as possible. The position of the prince is somewhat of a crisis!"

Li Siye seemed to have made it clear that he wanted Li Xuan to express some ideas about his situation.

"Whether my status is a crisis or not, that's all a story. Now the status of the Tang Dynasty is a bit crisis. If you don't cover it, where will the hair be left? The general is afraid that the general will understand this truth. As for my crisis, it will naturally be resolved after this battle."

Li Siye had some communication with Li Yi before, but after this conversation today, he felt that Li Yi was really mature. Li Yi was a sharp-talking person who didn't know how to retreat. On the battlefield, he was also a person who was not afraid of death but only knew how to rush around. So Li Siye, who was working with Li Yi, was a little worried.

After these few words, Li Siye's worries were wiped out. Li Yan was obviously confident in this battle, and his confidence must be supported by something.

"Since King Jianning said that, then we should talk about the serious matters. To launch an attack on the rebels tomorrow, that's what I think..."

Li Yi has passed the test of Li Siye, which means that after Li Siye has regarded him as his own person, he can of course not hide this tactical matter.

So, Li Neng and Li Siye each held a chicken leg, Li Siye spread the map on the ground, and then lowered his head and began to deduce it.

That night, Li Yi stayed in Li Siye's tent until midnight before returning. Obviously, he used his attitude and ability to gain the trust of his partner.

At the same time, Li Siye was unable to fall asleep for a long time after Li Yan left, because Li Yan told him with great confidence: "The rebels' counterattack will be very fierce, but as long as they resist this wave, Chang'an City can fight in one battle and cannot withstand it. Even if this time is over, the rebels' combat effectiveness is indeed strong, but they are just a group of people who are good at fighting the wind. Once they fall into adversity, they are not afraid."

Li Siye carefully recalled the several previous confrontations with the rebels, and felt that Li Yan's words had a considerable truth, but no one had discovered them before.

The next morning, Guo Ziyi and Li Yi had already sat down in the central army's tent early. The scouts in front kept passing in the news, and each message might affect Guo Ziyi's order.

"Reported that the enemy has discovered our army, but there is no sign of raiding our army. It is just setting up formations outside the moat in the north gate of Chang'an City, as if waiting to fight our army!"

"Report! The number of enemy troops deployed formations in the north of the city has been nearly 100,000!"

The enemy's intentions are already very clear, that is, I am not afraid of you, Tang Jun. If you really dare to come, then we will fight.

Guo Ziyi knew that it was indeed at the point where he had to send it, so he looked at Li Yu and directly sent an order: "I ordered Li Siye and King Jianning to attack the enemy's formation with drums as horns. Be sure to kill these enemy troops outside Chang'an City!"

After a series of arrangements for the central and rear armies, the Tang army participated in this first battle with a total of more than 100,000, which can be said to be the largest battle since the An Lushan rebellion.

No matter which side fails, the casualties will definitely exceed 50,000 when fighting on such a flat ground. In other words, as Li Yi said to Li Siye last night, this is a real battle to determine the outcome.

When the order was passed to the front army, Li Siye, Li Ren and others were not surprised at all. They had already mastered the movements of the enemy. The backbone in the city was Li Guiren, and he was not an ignorant person.

Obviously, he wanted to create a certain provocation against the Tang army, and he wanted to wait for work, so that the Tang army's mentality would fluctuate first, and then discuss the change without changing.

Li Siye and Li Yi were both standing in front of their soldiers. The armor and weapons had already been sweating in their hands, waiting for Guo Ziyi's order to be in place.

Suddenly, there were dull drum sounds behind him. Obviously, this was Guo Ziyi's order. Li Siye and Li Yan, who were the front army, should launch an attack on the rebels' positions.

"Soldiers, we have been practicing hard outside Suiyang City for several months. What we are doing is today. As long as we take back Chang'an City! No matter what, for me, Li Yan, you will be the first contribution!"
