Global Warring States: Get the Tang Taizong template at the beginning

Chapter 367 The golden cicada escapes from its shell
When autumn comes on September 8th, I will kill all the flowers after they bloom. The incense formation soaring into the sky penetrates Chang'an, and the city is filled with golden armor!
At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the feudal lords were in power, and the wars were constant. Huang Chao, the leader of the Caozhou Salt Gang, who was originally a failed scholar, rose up and joined the uprising army of another peasant army, Wang Xianzhi. After Wang Xianzhi died in battle, Huang Chao took his place and called himself "General Chongtian". Under the encirclement and suppression of the Tang army's various military governors, he fought thousands of miles from the Central Plains to Lingnan, and then from Lingnan back to the Central Plains, invaded Heluo and Guanzhong, captured Luoyang and Chang'an, and established the Great Qi.

Later, Huang Chao was besieged by military governors from all over the country in Guanzhong. His general Zhu Wen betrayed him. The Yaer Army led by Li Keyong, a Shatuo people, marched south. Huang Chao was defeated and withdrew from Guanzhong.

But Huang Chao was still ferocious and conquered Cai, Chen, Deng, Xu, Meng, Luo and other places in the Central Plains.

It is said that the Central Plains was hit by a severe famine at that time, and many people died leaning against the wall. The peasant army actually captured people to fill their stomachs, eating thousands of people every day. They also made hundreds of large stone mortars, threw living people into the mortars, ground them into minced meat, and ate them with the bones.

Huang Chao, a great general who failed the imperial examinations many times, launched an uprising that completely shattered the authority of the imperial court in the late Tang Dynasty. The separatist rule of the feudal lords became increasingly serious, and eventually Zhu Wen, a military general who had followed Huang Chao in his early years, destroyed the Tang Dynasty and established the Liang Dynasty, known in history as the "Later Liang Dynasty."

The lord player "Ren Tu" obtained the template of the great general Huang Chao. The reason why he was inconspicuous in the early stage was probably because the Huang Chao template was not strong enough in the early stage. The Huang Chao template unlocked new character features in the later stage, so Ren Tu was able to dominate Yingchuan County and dare to send troops to attack Bowang.

Ren Tu's sphere of influence has entered the northern part of Nanyang County.

The butcher seized the territory of the greatest emperor of all time in the name of suppressing a rebellion, and most likely intended to stay there.

Li Qian did not have time to consider how to deal with Ren Tu for the time being. The first thing he had to consider was to attack and destroy the greatest emperor of all time.

Wancheng, occupied by the emperor and Zhao Ci's rebels, is the most important city in Nanyang County.

At night, Wancheng was silent.

The 500,000 Jingzhou troops outside the city had not yet prepared their siege equipment and had not yet launched the attack.

Suddenly, a burst of shouting and killing broke out from the north gate, and countless rebels rushed out of the north gate, trying to break out from the north.

To the north, the Jingzhou general Huang Zu was guarding with his troops. After all, Huang Zu was a famous general, and it was impossible for him to be unprepared at night.

Huang Zu's Jingzhou army was the first to react and engaged in a melee with the rebels who rushed out of the city gate.

Huang Zu held a horn bow in his hand, and every time he shot an arrow, two or three rebels fell down.

Huang Zu was able to become a powerful enemy of Eastern Wu in the early period, and he also shot and killed powerful generals such as Sun Jian and Ling Cao, which shows the superb archery skills of Huang Zu and his subordinates.

Huang Zu fired thousands of arrows from his camp north of Wancheng, and thousands of rebels fell.

"Not good, the rebels are trying to break out from the north city."

"Send troops to stop them!"

Cai Mao, Cai Zhong, Cai He, Wen Pin and other Jingzhou generals saw flames rising to the sky in the north and heard loud shouts of killing, and estimated that the number of rebels was no less than 100,000.

They were worried that the enemy would escape with the merit within their grasp, so they quickly led their troops to the north to chase after him.

Li Qian didn't want to leave the three opponents who still had the template of emperors and generals, the Great Emperor of History, the Overlord of Western Qin, and the Timely Rain. After waking up from his sleep, Li Qian reacted in the same way as Cai Mao, Wen Pin and others, and led his troops to the north to encircle and intercept them.

Li Qian thought it would not be worthwhile if the emperor of all ages did not pay some price.

"My lord, something seems to be wrong. The enemy's military advisor is full of tricks and is as cunning as a fox. It is unlikely that they will break through rashly."

Li Jing led a team of cavalry and followed Li Qian to the north city, but on the way, Li Jing reacted.

"Could it be..."

Li Qian also came to his senses. He and his two military advisors, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, looked towards the other city gates.

Fang Xuanling spoke first: "In my opinion, the foreign rebels in Wancheng will most likely flee from the west gate into the Funiu Mountains."

Du Ruhui calculated with his fingers: "The probability of the rebels breaking out from the west gate is 80%."

"Let's go to the west gate!"

Li Qian believed in the judgment of Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and Li Jing, the three most intelligent strategists and generals, and decisively gave up supporting the North City and turned to supporting the West City.

As expected, before Li Qian arrived with his troops, the West Gate opened, and lord players such as the Greatest Emperor of All Time, Overlord of Western Qin, Timely Rain, and King Zheng led their troops and rushed out of the West Gate!
Most of the Jingzhou troops outside the city were attracted by the rebels who broke out from the north gate, and there were less than 50,000 Jingzhou troops left at the west gate.

The greatest emperor of all time appointed five brave generals, Yang Lin, Wei Wentong, Zuo Tiancheng, Han Qinhu and He Ruobi, as the vanguard, followed by three thousand brave soldiers. Behind them were other Sui troops and the troops of the Overlord of Western Qin, Timely Rain and King Zheng.

There were not many soldiers besieging the city outside the west gate, and they were suddenly attacked by five fierce generals with a strength of over 100 and three thousand brave soldiers. The Jingzhou army was quickly defeated.

Yang Lin is the most powerful among the five warriors. He holds a water and fire dragon-prisoning rod in each hand. Each iron rod weighs 150 kilograms. Every time he swings it, it is so powerful that it can split mountains and crack rocks.

The shields of the Jingzhou sword and shield soldiers could not withstand the blow from the heavy Water and Fire Dragon Prison Stick. The whole person was knocked away by Yang Lin's Water and Fire Dragon Prison Stick, and the shields also flew out of their hands.

A Qinglong sword slashed down, and the huge head flew up like a shield.

Wei Wentong cooperated with Yang Lin, holding a Qinglong sword in each hand, and his sword skills were superb. Every time he raised his sword and swung it, someone's head would fall to the ground.

Zuo Tiancheng held a golden-backed machete in his hand. His swordsmanship was second only to Wei Wentong. The golden-backed machete carried a sharp golden blade aura, sweeping across a group of Jingzhou soldiers.

The Jingzhou army encountered powerful generals of the level of the Five Tiger Generals of the Sui Dynasty, and lacked commanders such as Cai Mao, Wen Pin, and Huang Zu, so they quickly collapsed.

"Chu Dao, thanks to your good advice, I was able to escape. From now on, the sea is wide enough for fish to leap, and the sky is high enough for birds to fly!"

The great emperor had five brave generals and the brave army to clear the way for him to break out of the encirclement of the Jingzhou army. He was very grateful to the military advisor Yang Su.

The greatest emperor in history was trapped in Wancheng, where he was almost doomed to die. Facing the siege of 50 Jingzhou troops and Li Qian's 5 troops, it was actually not easy to break out.

The cleverness of Yang Su's plan of escaping was that he deceived both the enemy and us.

To the north of Wancheng, rebel generals including Zhao Ci and Zhang Hu led 30 rebels to break out, attracting the main force of the Jingzhou army to attack.

The rebels were not simply trying to make a feint to the east but were really trying to break out from the north, which deceived the generals besieging the city outside.

However, Zhao Ci, Zhang Hu and other rebel generals rushed left and right, but found that the greatest emperor of all time did not lead his troops to catch up with them.

At first, Zhao Ci and his men thought that the greatest emperor of all time was intercepted by the Jingzhou army, and they even led their troops back to rescue the greatest emperor of all time.

But when they saw flames rising to the sky in the west, they finally understood what had happened - they had been used as bait by the greatest emperor of all time!

"Damn it!"

Zhao Ci, Zhang Hu and other rebel generals all turned green in the face, as they trusted the greatest emperor of all time so much.
