    "What a courageous dog, what a courageous dog." An Lushan's roar could be heard even through more than ten camps.  Yan Zhuang shrank his neck, not knowing whether to be grateful that he was not with An Lushan at that time, or to be miserable that he had to go see him.  In this expedition, one hundred thousand people were recruited. Although An Lushan wanted to use them to consume Ye Chang's strength, he could not let them die before reaching the battlefield.  So they still sent out tents, but in the cold wind of the first month, their tents were really worthless, so everyone was shivering.  They looked at Yan Zhuang with hatred in their eyes. Although they tried hard to hide this hatred, Yan Zhuang could always notice it inadvertently.  "If these mobs really fight, nine out of ten they will turn against each other. This battlemay become the Battle of Muye." Yan Zhuang was worried, but he did not dare to say these words to An Lushan  speak out.  In the current situation, not to mention saying something against An Lushan in front of him, or even flattering him is not safe.  To say he was moody was an understatement. Yan Zhuang even felt that the lord he served might be a little crazy.  But even if you are crazy you must hold on "Military Commander Yan, Minister Yan, the king is calling you, please hurry up." "Okay, okay" Yan Zhuang stepped forward a few steps, but he was even more worried.  .  In the past, he wished that An Lushan would take notice of him, but now, he hopes even more that he will be ignored by An Lushan.  As he expected, he escaped after being whipped by the furious An Lushan.  After An Lushan beat him, he seemed to have taken a breath and went back to the camp to rest. Yan Zhuang limped and was about to leave, but he saw Li Zhuer limping over as well.  The two looked at each other and couldn't help but burst into tears.  "Zhu'er, what on earthis going on? The King's recent situation is really not right" In the past, Yan Zhuang would never talk to Li Zhu'er like this, but now he has to do this.  As An Lushan's most trusted servant, Li Zhuer is probably the one who knows the changes in An Lushan best.  "The king has a health problem." Li Zhuer looked around and lowered his voice: "The king has a fat body. It has been difficult to even ride a horse in the past two years, let alone lead troops to fight. Last time at Ye Chang's house, he  He was knocked down by the flour magic. In addition to his facial injuries, he was also very unwell and had malignant sores on his back" "What?" Yan Zhuang was shocked when he heard this: "Why has the king never mentioned it?" "  Your Majesty is not allowed to mention that he killed so many imperial doctors not just for Da Langjun Moreover, there is one more thing" Li Zhuer was hesitant, Yan Zhuang was worried, and said sternly: "This is the situation.  , You and I don¡¯t know whether we will be alive tomorrow, what are you hiding? If you tell us, you may find the right medicine, and there may be room for recovery. If you don¡¯t tell us, our heads will be gone before Ye Chang comes.¡± Li  Zhu'er gritted his teeth and made up his mind: "Your Majesty, it's a little difficult to see things now. It's probably because of the injury. He can't see clearly. No one else knows about this, only the villain knows." Yan Zhuang's heart skipped a beat:  No wonder An Lushan became grumpy and erratic due to the pain of losing his son, the pain of sores, and the worry of blindness with so many things mixed together.  " Moreover, these symptoms made Yan Zhuang even more worried: if the news spreads, the general's heart, which was already faintly falling apart, would soon be disintegrated.  Cui Qianyou was defeated but did not return, and Zhang Zhongzhi left but never returned - the occurrence of these two things was like opening a floodgate to release water, which made An Lushan's subordinates agitated, and An Lushan's increasingly bad temper was the reason for this.  This unrest added fuel to the fire.  An Lushan has already killed several generals under pretexts in the past few days. Seeing that Ye Chang's army is approaching, and a decisive battle will take place between the two sides within these three days, the restlessness among An Lushan's subordinates becomes more obvious.  Even Yan Zhuang himself saw with his own eyes some officials loyal to Li Longji entering and leaving the camp of An Lushan's generals. It was not clear what these people were doing.  He had also considered reporting and exposing these generals, but when he thought of An Lushan's current temper, he was afraid that he would immediately order killings. With such a killing, An Lushan would probably lose half of his generals before Ye Chang came to fight.  .  What¡¯s more, it¡¯s not like no one is testing Yanzhuang¡¯s tent.  When Cao Cao and Yuan Shao fought in Guandu, there were many letters and messengers between the subordinates of both sides. This kind of thing was normal Yan Zhuang could only comfort himself in this way.  If there is a way out, Yan Zhuang also wants to make other plans, but he knows very well that as the mastermind of An Lushan, he is one of the chief culprits, and he is a scholar. Li Longji and Ye Chang may not be able to tolerate those rude and barbaric people.  A military commander would never tolerate a conspirator like him.  "You are taking good care of the king. If there are any changes, please tell me quickly." After pondering for a while, Yan Zhuang couldn't think of a better way. He could only say: "Within three days, we will have a decisive battle with Ye Chang. Everything will happen."  We'll all wait until after this battle?¡± ¡°In this situation, Mr. Yan, please tell the villain the truth. Is it possible for us to win?¡±  " Li Zhuer's words left Yan Zhuang speechless. At this moment, probably no one except An Lushan thought they could win. "If they can't win, Mr. Yan must make other plans early"  Yan Zhuang lowered his head and thought hard, what other plans could he have, what other strategies could he have to change the current situation? According to his intention, he would return to Chang'an or even Luoyang, control the Tongguan natural barrier, and confront Ye Chang.  Even if this confrontation is still detrimental to An Lushan in the long run, it is better than the current dangerous situation. If we can confront Ye Chang from east to west and take the opportunity to annex Liaodong and control Ye Chang's economic lifeline, then there may be a chance to turn defeat into victory.  But An Lushan would not agree. He came out of Chang'an originally to fight Ye Chang. Before that, he even considered that all of Ge Shuhan's main force would join Ye Chang's men, so he mobilized an army of more than 100,000 people.  , but never thought that Ye Chang came up with more than 100,000 troops out of thin air. Moreover, after Ge Shuhan learned that the forward Pei Mian he sent turned out to be a secret chess planted by Li Heng, he even traveled at night and night. According to reports,  Hou said he had arrived in Yong County two days ago and lied down to apologize to Li Longji. Li Longji did not reprimand him too much and just asked him to serve in Ye Chang's army. This meant that Ye Chang's strength had increased. Since he could not defeat him, he was the only one.  The way is to retreat first, but with An Lushan's current temper, it would be difficult to persuade him to retreat immediately. "The king wants to use Tian Chengsi as the vanguard to fight Ye Chang.  "    "What?  " Yan Zhuang was stunned. This news was unknown to him. Just now An Lushan only flogged him, but he was tight-lipped about how to deal with it. What does this mean? It means that An Lushan's trust in him is rapidly decreasing. "Yes  Lessons from Cui Qianyou and Zhang ZhongzhiØ­The king still dares to use Tian Chengsi?  " "Tian Chengsi's whole family, young and old, are all in the hands of the king.  Li Zhuer said with some schadenfreude: "Unless Tian Chengsi doesn't want the life of the youngest in the family, otherwise he can only be obedient The king has secretly sent people back and ordered everyone's family members to be fetched. Mr. Yan, your family  "No exception." Yan Zhuang felt that his breathing seemed to have stopped. His face turned pale and he wanted to curse, but he did not dare to curse. An Lushan's move was also a last resort, but he adopted this strategy and did not cooperate with him at all.  Yan Zhuang's discussion clearly means that he no longer trusts Yan Zhuang's wisdom. With An Lushan's current temper, if Yan Zhuang loses his trust, then So something must be done to regain the trust.  Yan Zhuang was distracted, and after talking to Li Zhuer, he walked out of the camp involuntarily. Under the protection of several soldiers, he was about to climb up and look into the distance, when he saw a number of horses galloping towards him from the direction of Chang'an. He stopped.  , and when those knights arrived, they asked, "Who are you, and why are you here?"  " "It turns out that it is Shilang Yan, who came from Chang'an to deliver a message on the orders of Doctor Ji.  "The visitor recognized him and hurriedly dismounted from his horse and saluted. When Yan Zhuang heard "Doctor Ji", his heart suddenly moved. He stretched out his hand and said, "Give me the letter and I will forward it to the king for you.  "The messenger had no doubt that he had it. After delivering the letter, he solemnly asked him to wait in front of the camp and returned to the camp. But he did not go to find Anlu Mountain first, but returned to his tent and took a look.  Seeing that there was no fire seal, he opened the letter directly. Jiwen's letter mainly contained official matters, some personnel arrangements in Chang'an City, the transportation of military supplies from various places, and military situations in other places, especially the military deployment in Luoyang.  Yan Zhuang still found what he wanted here. "Sure enough, it's as expected" Seeing that paragraph, Yan Zhuang laughed three times and cheered up, then hurried to see An Lushan.  An Lushan heard the solemn request to see him. He didn't want to see him at first, but thinking that he had just whipped him and that he was coming again now, he must have something important to do, so he still called him in. This was considered a gift from An Lushan.  Yan Zhuang's last chance, if he can't impress him, he will be left in the cold. "Your Majesty, something happened in Chang'an." Yan Zhuang's words made An Lushan jump up.  Isn't Ji Wen there? Qing En is also there. I have left another 20,000 loyal troops. What can happen?" "The king is worried about" Yan Zhuang presented the letter to him. An Lushan himself was illiterate.  Throwing the letter in Yan Zhuang's face again, he roared: "Read it, read it." Yan Zhuang read the letter again. Seeing that An Lushan still looked confused, he repeated one of the paragraphs: "Your Majesty.  , Duke Ji repeatedly said that the emperor entertained the generals for several days and rewarded them with gold and silver, mansions, palace ladies, and brocade silk. " "You mean?  " "The king is fighting for him in the front, and he is digging the corner of the king in the back." He said solemnly and sternly: "Moreover, Ji Gong has always been cautious and wise, and he has repeatedly mentioned"This thing only proves that he also sensed that something is wrong." If there is anyone else who An Lushan can trust at this moment, I'm afraid it's Ji Wen. In fact, if Ji Wen is by An Lushan's side, I'm afraid he won't be able to trust him.  There is this kind of trust, as the saying goes, the fragrance is far away and the smell is close, but it makes An Lushan miss him. Therefore, Yan Zhuang used Ji Wen as a cover to make An Lushan really take this matter seriously.  : "The ones I left behind are all loyal generals" "Cui Qianyou and Zhang Zhongzhi, aren't they loyal to the king, but don't they have their own plans now?  "Yan Zhuang said: "Besides, serving the king is for glory and wealth, but how can the glory and wealth that the king can give compare with the glory and wealth that the emperor can give?  " A murderous look flashed on Anlu Mountain, and then he looked at Yan Zhuang with suspicious eyes: "You mean, they intend to seek refuge with Li Heng?  " "Even if you don't have this intention now, Li Heng has repeatedly tried to win over you and promised you wealth, and the king has been away for a long time. How can you not be tempted?  They are different from the humble ones. The humble ones do not have military power or bravery. If they are not attached to the king, they will not have the resources to settle down and make a living. They have soldiers and courage, so why worry about not having a place to serve?  " Since ancient times, there has always been a way to slander. After Yan Zhuang said these words, An Lushan was furious: "How dare they" "Your Majesty, as long as the emperor in Chang'an City has soldiers to help him block his old man.  That's all. As for whether the soldier's surname is An or something else, he doesn't care.  Moreover, when the king set out, he carried out a killing spree. At that time, he sent Cheng Yuanzhen, clearly preparing to scold the king.  The grudge has arisen, we must take precautions." An Lushan's face was ferocious, and his anger was getting more and more intense. He was used to fighting, so he naturally understood that the battle between him and Ye Chang would definitely not be able to determine the outcome in a short time.  It is very likely that there will be repeated battles from Gyeonggi to Guannai. During this stalemate, if the rear is unstable and there is any turmoil, how can he fight in the front? "In your opinion?  " "Your Majesty, the situation has become obvious at this time. How many people from all the towns in the world sent people to see Li Heng and recognize him as the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty?  Not to mention the towns, that is, the governors of the various roads, states and counties. How many of them recognized Li Heng as the emperor?  The king originally wanted to keep him here because he wanted to use his power of appeal. But now, looking at it, not only can¡¯t he borrow the power of his call, but this man forced his father to rebel and was despised by the world. In fact, he has brought trouble to the king." Yan Zhuang said: "Your Majesty, that's the case.  "Why don't you change the emperor?" "Change the emperor?"  It is an idea to find a younger member of the Li family to avoid sitting on the throne and thinking nonsense.  "No, why do you want to change to a junior member of the Li family? The position of emperor is occupied by the virtuous, and the king has a strong army and a strong horse. Why not proclaim himself the emperor now that the king has a strong army and a strong horse? Then he and Ge Shuhan, Ye Chang and others can proclaim each other the emperor and divide the Li family."  What's wrong with having a great family?  " "Am I proclaimed emperor?  " An Lushan was stunned for a while. Even as bold and arrogant as him, he couldn't help but be frightened by Yan Zhuang's suggestion. It's not that he didn't have the ambition to rebel and become emperor, but now this ambition is only in its infancy, and he  I always feel that the people of the world have not completely abandoned the Tang Dynasty, and becoming emperor at this time is not a good choice. "You want to harm me?  He rolled his eyes and said, "If you proclaim yourself emperor at this time, won't you become a target of public criticism?"  " "Isn't it true that the Li family's sons killed their fathers and brothers and killed their brothers? If the king proclaims himself emperor now and replaces him, and then provokes his generals to proclaim themselves emperors and kings, then the Li family will no longer have the power to command the world.  The Great King Xiong occupied Gyeonggi, Hedong, and North Henan Province, and entered Tudu, South Henan Province, Huainan Province, and Hexi Province, thereby establishing the foundation of an emperor for eternity. If not, could it be worse than the current situation?  "
