Chapter 152 Yang Yuhuan in Mawei Station 7
Tang Dynasty, the second year of Zhide, the first month.
An Lushan's son An Qingxu and his general Yin Ziqi led an army of 130,000 south in an attempt to sweep Henan.
When he entered Suiyang, he was met with desperate resistance from Zhang Xun, deputy envoy of Henan Jiedushi, and Xu Yuan, the prefect of Suiyang.
Six thousand eight hundred men defended Suiyang* despite the siege of 130,000 men.
This is different from the situation in history when people were besieged and had no ammunition or food and had to eat human flesh to fill their stomachs.
This time, with Yang Yuhuan's Flying Bird Army and the Rat Suicide Squad, the granary was filled to the brim. Therefore, everyone in Suiyang was confident and decided to fight the rebels to the end.
On such a cold spring day, there were dense swarms of birds circling in the sky above Suiyang City all day long. This situation seemed strange no matter how you looked at it.
After suffering heavy losses several times in succession at the hands of the Suiyang defenders, the cunning and treacherous Yin Ziqi began to feel that something was wrong.
He had heard of Zhang Xun's name and knew that he was extremely good at fighting.
but!
No matter how good Zhang Xun was at fighting, he couldn't possibly be so good at seeing through his attack plan that he had carefully planned for several days at a glance! ! !
They even figured out their own troop deployments!
Our own troops were like dancing naked in front of the Suiyang defenders, killing them one by one. How could we fight them?!
Looking with gloomy eyes at the sparrows that had landed on the open space in front of his tent, Yin Ziqi felt more and more frightened the more he looked.
Suddenly, a sparrow looked up and met his eyes.
What kind of look is that!
Full of teasing and mockery - that was not a look a sparrow could have!
At this moment, Yin Ziqi even began to doubt whether there was a soul of a living person under the skin of this sparrow.
Taking a deep breath, Yin Ziqi instinctively drew his knife and subconsciously chopped at the sparrow.
However, the sparrow reacted quickly, flapped its wings and flew away. Before leaving, it deliberately dropped a guano bomb on his head as a prank.
Yin Ziqi was so disgusted that his expression changed again and again.
The sparrow's strange behavior just now gave him a very bad impression. He then thought about the information that had previously come from the Tang court, which said something like "the Queen Mother has awakened", "all the beasts have submitted" and other nonsense.
He used to be indifferent to such supernatural things, but now his unshakable materialistic heart was suddenly shaken.
"Send someone to tell the Second Young Master that something strange is happening in Suiyang. We'd better withdraw our troops as soon as possible and go around."
Although Yin Ziqi was already on guard in his heart, unlike Yin Ziqi who was cautious and always took steady steps, An Qingxu, as the second son of An Lushan, was always arrogant and domineering.
Although he also saw those unusual birds, in stark contrast to Yin Ziqi who was worried, seeing this strange sight made him even more certain that there were no more combat troops left in Suiyang.
The reason why the Suiyang defenders were able to win before was just because of a little bit of luck, and they had to do their best to defend the city.
What he is doing now is definitely just bluffing!
Birds are different, so what?
It's just a mere animal taming technique. The Persians can also tam snakes. It's no big deal if there's a strange man who can tam birds hiding on the opposite side.
Therefore, the confident An Qingxu not only did not listen to Yin Ziqi's advice to withdraw his troops and take a detour, but instead became more determined to adopt the tactic of starving the Suiyang defenders to death.
Of course, even if they wanted to withdraw now, it was too late.
Because Yang, the strongest carbon-based creature on the earth in the eighth century, the Empress Dowager of the Tang Empire, the Commander-in-Chief of the Sixteen Guards, the Divine General Yuhuan, led her army of beasts and came here with murderous intent!
Yang Yuhuan was the leader of this expedition, with Guo Ziyi as his auxiliary.
One of them fought the rebels in the front, while the other went around and killed them from behind.
The two old scoundrels cooperated very well. When the rebels surrounded Suiyang City, they didn't know that they had been surrounded by the Tang court's counterattack army from both inside and outside.
……
That night, wolves howled, tigers roared in the mountains, bears galloped, and crows and birds flapped their wings.
If, during the day, humans can still rely on sunlight and courage to fight against the beasts.
Then, in the pitch-black night, it is the best time for groups of wild beasts to hunt.
Not to mention that these beasts share one brain and one pair of eyes, and can see everything clearly in the sky and on the ground.
The most important thing is that there is a real monster among the army of beasts!
It's already a cold season in late spring, and it happened to rain a little tonight. Isn't this heaven's help?
The spring rain is continuous, which is like a home game for the Frost Giant Wolf.
This gigantic monster went on a killing spree, and wherever it went, in the blink of an eye, the ground was covered with blood and flesh that had solidified into ice.
The rebels tried to resist at first, but when the fire started and they saw clearly that the attackers were not humans but a group of ferocious beasts, how could they have the courage to continue charging forward?
As the saying goes, a defeat is like a mountain collapsing. In just half an hour, the 130,000-plus rebels were either dead or fled.
At this time, the sound of killing was heard in Suiyang City. Then, the city gate was opened. Zhang Xun led the troops and rushed towards the face of the enemy general Yin Ziqi with a flashing sword.
An Qingxu also tried to lead his personal soldiers to break out, but with wolves on the left and tigers on the right, and soldiers in front and behind, he had nowhere to escape!
The troops of both sides were in chaos, but Yang Yuhuan was not worried at all that her army of beasts would accidentally hurt the Suiyang defenders.
After all, Tang Ting’s army had been eating dog food for so long that their bodies were almost marinated with the dog food. The wild beasts could tell whether those two-legged beasts were their own just by smelling them.
This one-sided war lasted for several hours. If the rebels had not been so numerous and difficult to kill, it would have ended even earlier.
By the early hours of the morning, the battle was over.
As the sky brightened, everyone in the Tang court was filled with joy.
As for the rebels, except for An Qingxu, who was still of some use and was stripped naked and hung on the city wall, the rest of the people were either eaten by wild beasts or hacked to death.
Others were trampled to death while escaping.
Yang Yuhuan didn't like receiving prisoners.
The thick smell of blood permeated the mud, and the smell of blood from tens of thousands of people will continue to linger on this land for a long, long time.
Maybe it will take a few years before it starts to disperse.
The soldiers' revelry did not stop until daybreak.
At this time, Yang Yuhuan, who was not even wearing armor, slowly walked down from a luxuriously decorated carriage.
Guo Ziyi, who had already been successfully brainwashed by Li Heng, walked over quite skillfully to act as a human armrest for the spotless girl. In the end, the precious Empress Dowager despised General Guo for being covered in blood.
Guo Ziyi was not annoyed. He scratched his head and chuckled a few times. Then, with a proud look on his face, he formally introduced this magical empress dowager to the Sui Yang defenders.
Let us congratulate the Queen Mother. After this battle, the reputation of the Godly General has completely resounded throughout the nine provinces.
But at the same time, this title was only used by the Tang court.
To the rebels, her reputation built up with the lives of 130,000 people was not as catchy as the "female killer".
----
Battle of Suiyang: also known as the Defense of Suiyang, an important turning point in the Anshi Rebellion.
6800 people vs. 400 people. With no water or food and no way to ask for help, they defended Suiyang for ten months, fought more than 12 battles of varying sizes, and annihilated a total of enemies.
No one surrendered during the whole process. Regardless of military or civilians, they all fought until the empty city of Suiyang was destroyed.
At this time, there were only ten days left for the Tang court to recapture Luoyang and send support.
