The Beacon Fire at the border blazed more fiercely, and the sound of the Hui people's iron hooves thundered like a storm, shaking the pulse of the earth. An Lushan stood atop the tall city tower, gazing at the billowing smoke in the distance, his heart surging like turbulent waves. He knew that this battle was not only about the peace of the border but also about the survival of the court.
"General, the Hui people have launched another attack!" a messenger rushed in, panting, with the command flag fluttering in the wind.
An Lushan furrowed his brow and said in a deep voice, "Send word down to prepare the entire army for battle; we must hold our ground and wait for reinforcements to arrive."
The messenger received the order and left. The soldiers on the city tower straightened their backs, their eyes shining with determination. However, An Lushan's heart was filled with an indescribable worry. He deeply understood that the fighting power of the Hui people was not to be underestimated, and the betrayal within the court made the situation even worse. Just then, Li Bai hurried over and said with a serious expression, "Lushan, I have something important to tell you." An Lushan turned around and, seeing Li Bai's solemn expression, couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. "Taibai, what have you discovered?"
Li Bai said in a deep voice, "I have discovered the list of officials in the court who have betrayed the dynasty. For personal gain, they have leaked our military secrets to the Hui people and revealed the defense situation at the border."
An Lushan angrily responded, "These shameless traitors dare to betray the court and sell out the country! Taibai brother, what do you plan to do?"
Li Bai took a deep breath and slowly said, "Brother Lushan, we must take immediate action to capture these officials who have betrayed the court. At the same time, we must strengthen internal rectification to ensure the stability of the court."
An Lushan nodded and said in a deep voice, "You are right. These officials who betray the court are parasites of the nation and must be eliminated. However, we cannot act too hastily; we need to cleverly gain trust and gradually take control of military power."
Li Bai nodded in agreement. The two discussed and decided to start with internal reforms within the court. They secretly investigated the crimes of those officials who betrayed the court, documenting each case. At the same time, they strengthened oversight of the military, selecting a group of loyal and reliable generals to gradually take control of military power.
Under the leadership of An Lushan and Li Bai, stability gradually returned to the court. The soldiers were high-spirited and full of fighting spirit, all expressing their determination to defend their homeland at all costs. Meanwhile, the Hui people tribe, upon learning that our court had strengthened its defenses and reorganized, temporarily halted their incursions.
However, An Lushan knew that this was only a temporary calm. He had to continue to strengthen the defense of the border and the internal reorganization, ensuring the stability and security of the court. At the same time, he also had to look for an opportunity to defeat the Hui people tribe in one fell swoop, completely eliminating the hidden dangers of the border.
One late night, An Lushan sat alone in his study, pondering the next step of his plan. Just then, a spy hurriedly arrived and handed him a secret letter: "General, this is a secret letter from the Hui people tribe."
An Lushan took the secret letter and carefully read it. The letter mentioned that there was a division within the Hui people tribe, with some tribal leaders showing hesitation and dissatisfaction with the invasion of our dynasty. An Lushan was intrigued, feeling that this was a rare opportunity.
He immediately summoned Li Bai and several trusted generals to discuss the matter. After a moment of contemplation, Li Bai said, "Brother Lushan, we can use this opportunity to send messengers to negotiate and divide the Hui people tribe. At the same time, we can strengthen the border defense and train the soldiers to prepare for possible battles." An Lushan nodded in agreement. He personally selected several loyal messengers to negotiate and divide the Hui people tribe. At the same time, he also strengthened the border defense and soldier training. Not long after, the messengers brought back good news: there were indeed divisions within the Hui people tribe, and some tribal leaders expressed willingness to coexist peacefully with our dynasty and even to submit to our dynasty. This news greatly pleased An Lushan, as he knew it was a crucial turning point.
An Lushan took the opportunity to strengthen his connections and cooperation with these tribal leaders, gradually gaining their trust and support. At the same time, he used this opportunity to carry out a series of reforms in the army, strengthening the training and discipline of the soldiers, and improving the combat effectiveness of the army.
Under An Lushan's careful planning and leadership, our dynasty's army gradually gained the upper hand over the Hui people tribe. In battle after battle, our dynasty's army, with outstanding combat power and steadfast belief, repeatedly defeated the Hui people tribe's attacks, defending the dignity and territorial integrity of the country.
Finally, in a decisive battle, An Lushan personally led the elite troops in a fierce battle against the Hui people tribe. After intense fighting, our dynasty's army finally defeated the Hui people tribe, achieving a decisive victory.
This victory not only completely eliminated the hidden dangers of border, but also greatly enhanced the prestige and status of the court. An Lushan thus became a hero of the court and a pride of the nation, and his name will be forever remembered in the river of history.
