That night, Zhao Ziliang sent someone to release Wang Sili, Pang Zhong, Li Chengguang, Tian Liangqiu and others from confinement and brought them to his commander's tent.
"The guilty general will wait to see the commander-in-chief," Wang Sili and others said in unison, clasping their fists and bowing.
Zhao Ziliang turned around at the map and looked at a few people and said: "The book of repentance you wrote is really cool.
It's pretty good and you have a deep understanding of your own mistakes.
This shows that you are still salvageable.
You made mistakes before.
Be eager to make meritorious deeds.
What kind of people were you in the past?
Each and every step from a soldier to a clerk to today.
It is not just your own efforts.
Don’t forget that if it weren’t for the imperial court and superior officials and generals who promoted you. , it is impossible for you to grow to this point.
His Majesty the Emperor, the court and I all hope that you will put your mind on the right path and stop doing small tricks.
Only by down-to-earth achievements and achievements can you be serious.
You have made a mistake.
The Emperor and I We all feel deeply guilty and regretful.
Why do we feel guilty because we, as officers and division commanders, did not supervise you well?
Why do we regret that it is not easy for you to reach high positions today and ruin your future like this?
But I'm sorry for yourselves, your parents and your relatives, and I'm even more sorry for the training and support given to you by the court and the emperor.
If everyone only seeks personal gain like you, what future will our Tang Dynasty and the Chinese nation have?
You must remember, In the face of the future and destiny of the country, any individual's self-interest is insignificant.
If there is anyone in the world today that I, Zhao Ziliang, can admire and admire, it is only General Wang Zhongsi, General Wang's military exploits.
He is outstanding and has outstanding achievements, but he never cares about personal gains and losses, works hard, and never uses weapons because he wants to achieve military success.
At that time, he served as the governor of four major border towns and controlled thousands of miles of territory, but he never sought for himself.
Self-interest, his heirs are still staying in their hometown to farm, and you all have your own little calculations, fearing that you will suffer losses and be fooled.
With your mentality, how can Shangguan safely entrust you with important tasks, ah."
Everyone was very ashamed and lowered their heads.
When Zhao Ziliang saw this, he shouted: "What are you doing with your heads down?
Are you sitting or standing?
You are soldiers.
Stand up straight, raise your chest, straighten your waist, put your hands vertically down, clamp the outside of your thighs, and bring your heels together." , Spread your toes in a figure-eight shape and look at my soldiers, see how they do it."
Wang Sili, Li Chengguang, Pang Zhong, Tian Liangqiu and others were trained like grandchildren by Zhao Ziliang.
The soldiers standing guard next to them bit their lips and just wanted to laugh but did not dare to laugh.
They could only hold it in, and their faces turned red. .
Zhao Ziliang looked at Wang Sili and others with disgust: "I don't want you to be a general even if you are a soldier with your bear-like appearance.
From today on, you have to start training again as a soldier.
I will send someone to train you."
After saying that, he waved to a soldier next to him.
The soldier walked a few steps forward, stood at attention, clasped his fists and said: "Commander" Zhao Ziliang said: "From today on, you will train a few of them and teach them what a real soldier is.
Tell them not to think that they are soldiers after being a soldier for a few years.
A real soldier can sit, stand, walk, speak and do everything."
Soldiers must be serious and clear-minded.
Soldiers are not gangsters, wealthy people, bandits, ordinary people, or temple politicians."
"Yes, Commander," the soldier agreed, and then said to Wang Sili and others: "My name is Wang Xiaozhong.
From now on, you are all my soldiers.
I am your leader.

You must obey my orders unconditionally." , during the training, you are not allowed to speak without my permission.
You must stand at attention in front of me.
You must report to me before doing anything.
You can only do so after getting permission.
You must report even if you go to the toilet.
I understand. "?"
Wang Sili and others stared at each other, and then agreed dejectedly: "I heard it."
The soldier yelled: "What are you all about?
You're all just like your father and mother when you die, and you haven't eaten.
Please be louder, I can't hear you."
"You are so presumptuous!"
Li Chengguang couldn't help but get angry at first.
The soldier raised his foot and kicked him without thinking.
With a "bump", Li Chengguang was kicked several meters away and fell to the ground.
The soldier rushed forward and punched him several times, beating Li Chengguang until he screamed.
But Wang Sili, Pang Zhong, Tian Liangqiu and others were frightened.
Li Chengguang is also a general-level figure after all.
Although his martial arts skills are not to mention that he rarely encounters powerful enemies, his skills as a general who can command thousands of troops are not that bad.
They did not expect that Li Chengguang was actually here.
The men were beaten so hard that they were unable to fight back.
"Do you accept it or not?"
the soldier yelled as he punched him with his fists.
After more than a dozen punches, Li Chengguang was beaten until his whole body was so weak that he couldn't lift any strength and was still in terrible pain.
He couldn't bear it anymore and immediately shouted: "I'm done with it, I'm done with it."
Zhao Ziliang folded his arms and smiled as he watched the soldiers beating Li Chengguang fat for a while without paying any attention.
The soldiers stood up, straightened their armor, and shouted to Li Chengguang: "Get up, stand up, hurry up."
Now Li Chengguang lost his temper and was beaten by a small soldier, Zou Cheng.
If he told this, he would probably be laughed out of his mouth.
But at this time, it was better for a hero not to suffer the immediate consequences, so he got up and stood up honestly. good.
"Line up in a line, turn left, which way is the left?
Wang Sili, are you a pig?"
Amidst the roar of the soldiers, Wang Sili and others were taken out of the commander's tent.
Zhao Ziliang shook his head and smiled, shouting outside the tent: "Come here, call Li Siye and Zhao Ting to see me."
"promise" After a while, Li Siye and Zhao Ting walked in, clasped their fists and bowed, saying, "See you, Marshal."
Zhao Ziliang raised his hand: "I called you two here without courtesy because of the prisoners.
Apart from the wounded among the prisoners who need medical treatment and training, there are still about 80,000 prisoners who are locked up in the camp and raised like this.
Many prisoners need a lot of food, but they cannot be killed.
I thought about it and decided to transform these prisoners and let them serve the court again.
I decided to send you two to be responsible for their treatment.
When reorganizing and training, first ask the prisoners for their thoughts.
If any of them no longer want to fight, you can pay them some travel expenses to go home.
If they are willing to stay and join the army and continue to serve the court, the two of you will be responsible for reorganizing them.
And retrain them and train them into an army as quickly as possible.
Li Siye is in charge of this matter and Zhao Ting is his deputy.
Do you two have any opinions or ideas?"

Li Siye and Zhao Ting immediately stood at attention and loudly said: "No"
"Okay, this matter is settled.
The commander-in-chief will announce this matter to the army at the morning meeting tomorrow, and allocate military expenses, food and grass, weapons, armor and other equipment to wait for you to train for a period of time before equipping them."
"The last general takes command" At midnight on July 22nd, Zhao Ziliang held a morning meeting at the Chinese Army's tent.
This was a daily activity in the Beiting Army.
It mainly reported military information and arranged training, sentries, and patrols for various departments throughout the day. tasks and other matters.
At the morning meeting, Zhao Ziliang announced in public that he would conduct a comprehensive reorganization and training of the prisoners, and appointed Li Siye and Zhao Ting to be fully responsible.
Military expenses and food were allocated on the spot, and all 7,000 infantrymen of the Beiting Army were left at the disposal of Li Siye and Zhao Ting. , and at the same time ordered the rest of the army to set fire to rebel at Mao hour on the 23rd, break camp at Chen hour and set off to approach Tongguan.
After the morning meeting, Zhao Ziliang personally wrote a report of victory and sent it to Emperor Xuanzong in Maweiyi.
At the same time, he informed the emperor that he had led his troops to approach Tongguan and was preparing to wait for the opportunity to attack Tongguan.
In the early morning of July 23, nearly 30,000 cavalrymen of the Beiting Army marched towards Tongguan.
In the afternoon of the same day, Xiang arrived at Tongguan and set up camp fifteen miles outside the west wall of Tongguan.
The Tang army quickly reached the gates of Tongguan and let the rebel guard Li Gui return.
Renru was facing a formidable enemy and quickly sent someone to report the situation to Emperor An Lushan of Yan Dynasty in Luoyang.
After Sun Xiaozhe and Yin Ziqi were defeated, they fled to Luoyang overnight.
On the afternoon of July 24, An Lushan was enjoying singing and dancing in the Luoyang Palace.
At this time, a eunuch rushed over and reported: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something bad happened.
The guard of Tongguan, General Li Guiren, sent him to 800 miles away to rush.
He said that General Sun Xiaozhe returned with a great defeat after encountering Zhao Ziliang.
The entire army was defeated, and fewer than 200 people were able to escape."
"What a failure?"
An Lushan had no interest in watching the singing and dancing at this time, and kicked all the dancers out: "Get out, get out, get out!"
After all the dancers were kicked out, An Lushan said angrily: "Why did Sun Xiaozhe and Yin Ziqi eat their people when one hundred thousand troops were lost like this?"
The eunuch arrived: "General Sun and General Yin are on their way back to Luoyang.
They should have passed Shaanxi County at this time."
An Lushan grabbed the pen holder on the imperial desk and smashed it on the ground.
He cursed: "I lost one hundred thousand troops in one confrontation.
Why didn't Sun Xiaozhe kill the person who came when he still had the nerve to come back?
When Sun Xiaozhe arrived in Luoyang, he immediately Catch him, I will shave him alive."
"Follow the decree" On the morning of July 25th, An Lushan held a court meeting.
"Come here, bring Sun Xiaozhe and Yin Ziqi to the palace."
Soon, Sun Xiaozhe was kidnapped by Wuhuada and brought to the main hall.
Yin Ziqi was not kidnapped.
He was a deputy general and did not have to bear the main responsibility for the defeat.
"The sinful ministers see your majesty, long live my emperor, long live my emperor."
Sun Xiaozhe and Yin Ziqi both knelt down to pay homage.
An Lushan gritted his teeth and said: "Huh, you two still have the nerve to come back and see me.
It's in vain that I trusted you so much and handed you one hundred thousand elites.
Is this how you repay me?
Is this how you repay my trust?
Why didn't you do it right there?
Forget about wiping your neck, ah."
"General Sun, you are too inexperienced.
You have an army of 100,000 in your hands.
Even if you let the Tang army kill 100,000 pigs, can they kill them all in one day?"

These words were too sharp and vicious.
Many military generals began to accuse Sun Xiaozhe, just because Sun Xiaozhe He used to be one of An Lushan's most trusted generals.
This person was responsible for supervising all the rebel generals in Guanxi.
Many of these people were punished by Sun Xiaozhe, so many people held a grudge against Sun Xiaozhe.
At this time, they saw that there were Opportunity to retaliate and add insult to injury, how can we not give him a push:
