Speaking of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, we know that this is a country with extremely prosperous and powerful national strength, so that the name "Chinatown" that was generated by the influence on foreign countries at that time has been left to the present. So what famous generals did the Tang Dynasty have? In addition to the most well-known Guo Ziyi, it should be Li Guangbi who is the most well-known. The famous Tang Dynasty general Li Guangbi was born as "Liucheng Li Clan", with the same surname as the imperial family at that time, and was later promoted by another general, Guo Ziyi, to become the Tang Dynasty's Hedong Jiedu envoy. Until the rebellion of Shi Siming of An Lushan later, Tang Xuanzong took a cadre of people in the palace and Yang Yuhuan to leave the palace and fled in a hurry. Moreover, Yang Guifei died on the way to Ma Songyi on this run. The history of this rebellion is called the Anshi Rebellion, and the event in which Yang Guifei was forced to die was called the Ma Songyi Mutiny.
At such a time of crisis, Li Guangbi was urgently appointed deputy marshal and went with the army to quell the unrest. However, at that time, the forces of An Lushan were just like the sun in the sky, how could these armies resist it? In desperation, Li Guangbi had no choice but to lead the army to retreat to Heyang, but After An Lushan and Shi Siming captured Luoyang City, they planned to take advantage of the victory and pursue, hoping to take Li Guangbi and his army in one fell swoop.
When Li Guangbi learned the news through the inside line and the scouts, he was not in a hurry, but he also did not let his army take the initiative to attack. He ordered the army to stay where it was and not to move, but then he left alone. However, before leaving, he explained to his colleague Yong Xihao: "There is only one last way, that is, I will leave first, and you must resist." Remember, you can't surrender, in the end they will surrender, and then you will come to me with them.

This general felt very incomprehensible, the enemy army was about to attack, as the main general Li Guangbi you left first, how to fight this battle. But before he could ask, Li Guangbi rode away on horseback. After knowing that Li Guangbi had fled, Shi Siming immediately sent a team of men and horses to arrest Li Guangbi, and issued a death order, so that if Li Guangbi could not be caught, he would not have to return. The group of subordinates was very helpless, and came to the front of Yong Xihao's position and asked, "What about your lord Li Guangbi?" The other person replied: "I have left a long time ago." Then he asked, "How many of you are there?" The answer was a thousand. Later, this subordinate thought that since he did not catch anyone and returned to death, he could not fight and fight, so he simply surrendered. Later, Shi Siming's men and horses gradually began to surrender. It turned out that everyone was forced out by Shi Siming's impossible orders. Everyone admired Shi Siming's clever calculations and admired his wisdom and courage.
Li Guangbi is not only so, but also very good at tunnel warfare. Li Guangbi's 10,000 troops intersected with Shi Siming's 100,000 troops, and they were naturally invincible. However, Li Guangbi built many catapults, causing a large number of casualties to the enemy, and later Shi Siming's troops relied on the mountain to hide, who expected that Li Guangbi dug through the mountain road again, and the collapse of the mountain caused a large number of casualties to the enemy. Later, various schemes were also used, which caused great trauma to Shi Siming's army.
