"Yan Gaoqing, if you betray Your Majesty, I will escort you to Luoyang and let Your Majesty dismember your five horses!" Shi Siming shouted at the captured Yan Gaoqing.

"Bah! An Lushan, a rebel, dares to call himself Your Majesty, and has been ridiculed by the world!" Yan Gaoqing sneered, not caring about his fate at all, and only cursed An Lushan.

Shi Siming was furious, but he was too lazy to debate with Yan Gaoqing, a defeated general, so he waved his hand and asked the soldiers to escort Yan Gaoqing.

After capturing Yan Gaoqing, Shi Siming and Cai Xide continued to kill the remaining soldiers of the defenders in the city.

Influenced by An Lushan's precedent for indulging soldiers to rape and loot in Luoyang, and Shi Siming and Cai Xide, as well as a large number of anti-army generals, they were all Hu people, and they were already tyrannical and bloodthirsty. While clearing out the remaining defenders of Changshan, they almost turned Changshan into hell. Not to mention the killed defenders, there were more than 10,000 ordinary people in the city, and there were corpses of innocent people everywhere.

On the other side, Wang Chengye learned that Changshan City had fallen, so he stopped waiting. He immediately rushed to Changshan City with 20,000 soldiers, intending to take advantage of the continuous attacks by Shi Siming and Cai Xide and other anti-army forces, and suffered heavy losses.

"Report!"

"Two generals, Wang Chengye's Tang army has been dispatched and is coming to Changshan!" The anti-army scout who has been monitoring Wang Chengye's army reported the news to Shi Siming and Cai Xide.

"It's a good time. You can defeat Changshan with the power to defeat him in one fell swoop!" Shi Siming and Cai Xide had long known that Wang Chengye was hiding with a large army thirty miles away from Changshan City.

If Wang Chengye had not been slow to move and watched them attack Changshan, their main purpose would be to conquer Changshan first, and then he would ignore Wang Chengye.

Now that Changshan has been taken down by them, Wang Chengye came to kill him at this time to reap the benefits of the fisherman. It was just in their wishes and defeated Wang Chengye's 20,000 Tang troops in one fell swoop.

Wang Chengye thought that Shi Siming and Cai Xide and other anti-army would inevitably be exhausted and suffered great losses for several consecutive days of attacks, so he wanted to take advantage of it. Didn’t he know that Shi Siming and Cai Xide had long known that he led his army to hide in that small town and did not take him seriously at all?

Immediately, Cai Xide and two thousand anti-army continued to search for the remnants of the defenders in the city, as well as the family who captured Yan Gaoqing and other Changshan officials, while Shi Siming and other anti-army attacked Wang Chengye's 20,000 Tang troops.

Although Wang Chengye also has 20,000 soldiers, like Yan Gaoqing's, most of them are recruiting newly recruited mobs without any training and have no combat power at all. This is the fundamental reason why Shi Siming and Cai Xide did not take him seriously from the beginning.

On the other hand, although Shi Siming and Cai Xide's anti-army did lose more than 4,000 soldiers despite attacking the city for three consecutive days, and the other soldiers were indeed a little tired.

However, the elites of a hundred battles are elites of a hundred battles. The fatigue had long been captured by the city of Changshan and raped and robbed for a while, and then was wiped out. The anti-army soldiers are now full of momentum.

More than 12,000 anti-army troops opposed Wang Chengye and 20,000 Tang troops. As soon as the two sides met, Shi Siming ordered the anti-army to take the initiative to attack.

"Kill!" Shi Siming's more than 5,000 anti-army cavalry and seven thousand anti-army infantry rushed fiercely towards Wang Chengye's 20,000 Tang troops.

"Defeat the rebel army!" Wang Chengye was so shocked by Shi Siming's rebel army's momentum. Then he ordered the Tang army under his command to fight.

After each of them had a rain of arrows, the cavalry of the anti-army rushed into Wang Chengye's Tang army first.

Most of the Tang army under Wang Chengye's command were newly recruited untrained mobs and could not form any military formations. The 20,000 soldiers were scattered and fought on their own. Just one encounter made Shi Siming lead the anti-army cavalry to break through more than 100 meters. Moreover, Shi Siming and other anti-army cavalry were still continuing to advance, and they were actually planning to penetrate Wang Chengye's 20,000 Tang army.

Soon, seven thousand anti-army infantry also killed Wang Chengye's Tang army.

In dealing with a mob like Wang Chengye, the anti-army infantry were too lazy to form a military formation. The Mo sword and the horizontal sword in their hands opened and even killed the Tang soldiers under Wang Chengye's command.

"The anti-army is so fierce!" Wang Chengye's face looked extremely ugly. He knew that he was careless after less than half a puff of incense fighting between the two sides. Although the number of anti-army soldiers is far less than the number of Tang soldiers under his command, the anti-army soldiers are still too fierce compared to the newly recruited Tang soldiers under his command for a few days.

Wang Chengye's 20,000 Tang soldiers were killed by Shi Siming and his anti-army cavalry, and together with 7,000 anti-army infantry, the Tang soldiers under his command were killed everywhere.

From the beginning of the confrontation, Wang Chengye was frightened to find out that if he continued to fight, he would be in danger of being wiped out.

"Transfer our military orders, retreat, and the entire army retreat!" In horror, Wang Chengye made a wrong decision, and actually issued an order to retreat to the entire army in this situation.

Not only that, Wang Chengye also brought his personal soldiers to abandon the army and fled to the east first.

Wang Chengye's stupid decision, coupled with his first defeat and escape, directly led to the collapse of the 20,000 Tang troops under his command.

All over the mountains were all defeated and fled.

"Hahahaha, kill!" Shi Siming laughed contemptuously. If Wang Chengye's 20,000 Tang troops were attacking Changshan, they might be able to restrain them when they attacked Changshan, but Wang Chengye actually waited for Changshan to be captured by them before leading his army to fight them in the field, which was simply seeking death.

In terms of field battles, they were not afraid of even the Khitans and the Xi people. Not to mention that Wang Chengye's mob was only a few thousand more than them, even if they were three times more, they would definitely lose!

Under the pursuit of the anti-army of Shi Siming and other anti-army, Wang Chengye's 20,000 Tang troops were almost wiped out. There were less than 3,000 people who could retreat to Hedong with Wang Chengye. Their casualties caused to the anti-army were only about 1,000, and their defeat was much more miserable than Yan Gaoqing!

However, because of Wang Chengye's defeat, Yan Quanming, the second son of Yan Gaoqing, who was under house arrest by him, took the opportunity to escape.

Because he successively captured Changshan City, captured Yan Gaoqing, and then defeated Wang Chengye's 20,000 Tang troops, Shi Siming, Cai Xide and other anti-army forces, the momentum was shocked. For a moment, people in other prefectures and counties in Hebei were panicked and their morale was depressed.

After Shi Siming and Cai Xide left only a few troops to stay in Changshan, they divided into two groups, recruiting troops while sweeping across other prefectures and counties.

Yecheng, Guangping, Julu, Shanggu, Boling, Wen'an, Xindu, Weizhou, Zhaozhou and others were successively recaptured by Shi Siming and Cai Xide and other anti-army.

The rebels such as Shi Siming and Cai Xide not only captured the city and occupied the land, but also plundered soldiers every time they landed, bringing endless disasters to the people of various prefectures and counties. A large number of people were displaced to escape the war.

The situation was originally great, Hebei completely deteriorated.
