But I never dreamed that Zhang Xiaobao's request for his seal was not to command the people on the ship, or that the ultimate goal was not just the people on the ship.
The letter was sent to the capital first, and the letter that Ke Tuyu had written to the imperial court was found in the capital. All the letters were collected, and then someone was found to imitate the letter based on Ke Tuyu's handwriting and mobilize the other soldiers in Songmo Dudu Mansion.
The generals sent by the other governor’s mansion, who can speak for themselves, also sent false letters to send their troops back. These soldiers will be scattered and dispatched to various places in Datang. The location of Li Xun in Shuzhou is divided into ten thousand Songmo governors. He sent 20,000 soldiers to Shuzhou and 5,000 soldiers from the Bohai Governor's Mansion, each of which was divided into 10,000 or two.
Among them, a series of methods such as bribery, suppression, wooing, and assassination were used.
It’s not that there are no capable people in the governor’s office, but even if you can see it, there is more than enough energy and insufficient strength. The generals sent to Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan are capable of fighting well, just to learn Wang Juan’s skills and at the same time as a powerful force. The existence of Wang Juan did not dare to move.
There were not many people in the governor’s houses. The Jilizhou had taken away 160,000 people in the early stage, and then sent 40,000 real soldiers. Seeing that the transfer order and the soldiers coming from other prefectures, they intentionally opposed it and were not strong enough. .
Those who strongly disagree either fell ill and died suddenly, or accidentally pushed their heads against wood or tiles that accidentally fell from a height while walking.
In addition, some people suddenly became wealthy and used the same things as those of the important officials of the Tang Dynasty. These people tended to exchange forces with the Tang Dynasty. The good name is to send troops to the Tang to know the people’s livelihood of the Tang people and to introduce the Tang soldiers into the country. , Neng Xiaojun's combat power.
I have seen the combat strength, but the specific combat capabilities are not clear, but the weapons and armor used are not even a bit stronger than that of the capitals, especially the soldiers from Shuzhou, who are so disciplined as to instruct them, and Li Xun actually arrived in person. Songmo Dudu Mansion came to take the seat.
The remaining part of the people neither opposed to coming back to the soldiers, nor did they agree. Some said they went home to rest after illness, and some seemed to be in a dream all day long, seeming helpless, or they seemed to wait again, waiting for the day when the dispatched soldiers would return.
These things are unexpectedly unknown to the generals, and the news cannot be passed on. One is that the fleet travels fast and is difficult to navigate by land. Both are important land passes and have been guarded by the army. All non-Datang fast horses will stop them. This is especially true in the river.
When Ke Tuyu's body was completely healed, and the fleet was only a few days away from the place where he had landed and then rushed to the desert, when he regained his military power, the various capitals on the Hebei Province were basically settled.
…
A letter was sent between the capital and Jili Prefecture. When a letter sent by the monarch Dawuyi of the Bohai Metropolitan Government Office stated that the Metropolitan Government was willing to send taxes to the sixty-two prefectures of the five capitals this autumn, Li Longji Few doubts are in a dream.
"How can it be like this?" Li Longji shook his head vigorously, and confirmed what was said in the letter again, as if talking to himself.
"Your Majesty, it's midsummer now. At the beginning, the two Xiaobao Juanjuan agreed to let the Bohai Governor's Mansion pay the rent this year." Gao Lishi explained.
"I know that they have said it before, but what I want to know is not what they said, but why the Bohai Metropolitan Government is willing to hand it over? Is it just because the two of them said it is the reason? Could it be that they said me? Tomorrow can fly in the sky, and I will also tomorrow... Oh, I have already flown once.
Not to mention flying or not, just what methods did the two of them use? It’s not just because Xun sent 10,000 soldiers to the Bohai Dudu’s Mansion that Dawuyi was scared. There may be a population of hundreds of thousands, five thousand less and 10,000 more than my court’s soldiers. There is also the power of war, Dawuyi. But I have always wanted to get rid of my Datang. "
Li Longji spoke smoothly, but his eyes were filled with confusion. How could such a difficult thing be in the hands of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan just like playing a game. It was Bohai Dudu Mansion, far away from Jilizhou, even if Datang thought. Beating is beyond the reach. It's not because I was moved to see the portraits of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.
The two children are good-looking, and there are portraits of the two from childhood to large on the wall here, but this is definitely not a reason.
Hearing the words of the emperor, Gao Lishi had an urge to laugh, suppressed it with all his might, and explained: "Your Majesty, naturally it is not what Xiaobao and the cuckoo say, but they will do it when they say it. In time, another 20 gunboats were sent from Luzhou to fight pirates in Bohai Bay.
More than 1,100 pirate ships were attacked, countless pirates were killed, and a large number of silks were sent to the people in Bohai to collect pirate damage. The Bohai Governor’s Mansion did not only send out 5,000 people, but 15,000 people. Ten thousand people followed Xiaobao and the cuckoo to protect the desert on the other side of Jinchuan.
Your Majesty thinks like this, the number of martial arts in the Bohai Governor’s Mansion is less than 15,000. Although the 5,000 less people were too sudden for him, they were transferred directly without his order, but after all, they were missing. , How many troops can hundreds of thousands of people have
Their navy and pirate ships almost couldn't beat the pirates. Xiaobao and Juanjuan dispatched gunboats to help him. The minister estimated that Dawuyi was moved by the selfless help of my heavenly soldiers. Your Majesty Sheng Enpuzhao. "
"Huh? Twenty gunboats were sent to fight all the navy forces of the Bohai Governor's Mansion? No, all the pirates were wiped out? A lot of silk was also sent, which should be collected by the state government nearby. Why don't I know?"
Li Longji finally understood. No wonder Dawuyi, who wanted to contend with Datang, suddenly became more talkative. He took the initiative to pay rent and taxes and stopped thinking about establishing normal trade between the two countries with Datang. It turned out to be my holy grace. Ah, it's just that when my divine grace passes, I don't know yet.
Gao Lishi knows that the emperor is not happy, the main problem is not whether the emperor knows the situation there, but that the originally difficult things become simple in the hands of Little Treasure and the cuckoo, which is a bit of a shock.
Then he quickly persuaded: "Your Majesty, at the beginning, your Majesty said that Xiaobao should be solely responsible for the affairs of northern Hebei Province. There is no need to report, and the letter will only be delivered when the court sends troops. Therefore, your Majesty does not know it. The letter came to Beijing, so I never told your majesty directly.
Your Majesty, it seems simple, but it is not. Xiaobao and Juanjuan mobilized nearly half of the wealth of the Zhang family for this matter, buying, wooing, and sharing with the civilians. In Lizhou, sleep at most four hours a day.
I also discussed with the minister, after the resettlement in the northern part of Hebei Province, let the minister help to seek more benefits before his majesty. This time he lost a lot. "
"Oh, I have suffered both of them. I want to benefit from me? They occupy a large area in the northern part of Hebei Province. Can't they make up for the loss?"
Li Longji's mind was balanced, and considering Zhang Xiaobao's ability to make money, he didn't think that he would not make money back.
"Your Majesty meant that he and he should occupy the entire northern part of Hebei Province? The road to Henan Province is difficult to access by land. They also have naval gunboats. The entire area is densely covered with mountains and forests. On the mountains on the front line of Jinchuan's weak water, classic jungle tactics were played.
The strong seedling protection team of King Zhang's family is quite fascinating in the mountains and forests. Even the Tongan County King Li Xun who he studied with him also has a thousand troops specially suited for jungle warfare. Your Majesty is really ready to let the two of Xiaobao stand in the north of Hebei Province. ? "
Gao Lishi was a little confused about the emperor, so he had to analyze the matter so that the emperor was sober and sober, and don't be dazzled by happy things.
Li Longji was stunned, "Uh... Yes, what Luxis said is exactly what Li Shi said, trustworthy but must not be prevented, what is the plan of Little Bao Juan? Do you want to take over there?"
"In response to your Majesty, Xiaobao is considering not being able to reside in the northern part of Hebei Province, so he wants to reap the benefits from other places. Those who do not love the people like their children will not be sent, and those who have not served as courtiers will not send it.
Even if they are sent, they will be replaced every three years, leaving their family in the capital, one official and one official, the official minister, the civil affairs, the deputy military commander, only defending, and those who have been trained for three years. After two years, they will send the civil servants to study and be familiar with. In that situation, when the predecessor leaves, the successor will take office directly.
The same is true for military generals, but those who go to learn one year in advance have no right to do so, so that there is no fear of rebellion, and the navy will be managed by another person. All generals and ministers must first build roads after they take office. "
Gao Lishi took out a piece of paper from his arms and read it to Li Longji according to the words written on it.
Li Longji nodded straightly when he heard it, and suddenly asked: "If there is a war then and only one year is familiar with it, then he won't be able to fully understand what the soldiers should do?"
"Retreat. If you can't fight, you will come back. The court will send elite soldiers to fight. In fact, your Majesty does not have to worry about someone fighting there. No matter Turkic or Silla, as long as you go to attack, the capital can send troops to attack on both sides, not to mention Xiaobao and the cuckoo. It seems that I do not intend to make Turks and Silla as free as they are now, but they have not spared their hands, Your Majesty, they are still young."
Gao Lishi revealed something vaguely mentioned by his godson. The main reason was that he received a map. The map did not look like the current Datang map. It was much larger than the current one, although it said "Datang The four words "map".
Li Longji finally recovered from the emotions in the letter sent from the Bohai Governor’s Mansion. After he became smarter, he immediately heard the meaning of Gao Lishi’s words: "Does he two still want to fight? They always fight." , It's dying... It seems that not many people will die. The one who died the most is someone else. What benefits did the two of them ask for?"
"No, if Xiaobao said... Your Majesty... You must..." Gao Lishi hesitated but didn't say everything.
Li Longji understood. If Xiaobao offered benefits at this time, he should think of a way to stop him. He definitely couldn't let him achieve his goal easily, and he didn't believe that he would lose every time.
"Luxury, take the time to write to both of them, and just say what I said. If they don't want other benefits, I will exempt his family from taxation for three years. If they don't want tax exemption, they will each have their own ability."
Li Long basically wants to directly say that each has its own ability, think carefully, if that is the case, Xiaobao and the cuckoo seem unfair, but they have cleaned up such a big place, if they win them this time, they should really lose. If you stop playing after getting angry, you will lose a kind of fun, although the hope of winning is not so great.
"The minister abides by the order." Gao Lishi had to agree to what else to say. He couldn't understand why the emperor had such a leisurely mind. It was usually good, but when he met Xiaobao and the cuckoo, he had to be with his children. General knowledge.
…
At this time, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan also received news from Shuiyun. There was chaos in northern Hebei Province, and the great martial arts of the Bohai Governor’s Mansion was tossed and subdued. If you want to quit, there will be an excuse to beat him hard. Is the relationship of sovereignty arbitrarily recognized
"Xiaobao, you can send a letter to Chidezu from Tubo and ask him to send troops to help fight polyphagia. I don't ask him whether he supports polyphagia or not. It depends on whether he will dispatch troops or not."
Seeing that the matter in Jili Prefecture was almost resolved, Wang Juan began to take another action against Tubo.
Zhang Xiaobao wrote a letter asking Chide Zuzan to send troops to annihilate the robbers and cannibals. There is news that the cannibals in the desert continue to increase their troops. Originally, there were more than 100 people left, but now they have become 2,000. The weapons are also stronger than the previous five hundred people.
Each was equipped with a horse, and instead of continuing to attack the Haloxylon tree, they set up camp and stood there. It seemed that a big move was about to be brewed. Up to now, it is still impossible to guess which of the Turks and Tubo is behind them.
If you want to support it, it is possible in both places. The supply of two thousand people has always been the manpower sent by cannibals to the two places in exchange for other things. As for whether it is worth a penny in exchange for the usual money The materials are unclear.
If you can get the news at the time of exchange, whoever exchanges with many cannibals like that, who is the supporter behind it, it won’t work if you don’t fight, and you can’t get used to problems. How about more than 40,000 people, how can you train without consuming points
After the letter was written, it was sent to Tubo as quickly as possible, and Zhang Xiaobao brought the Katoyu generals over to discuss matters about the upcoming battle.
"That's the way it is. Let's see if the Tubo sends people or not. At that time, they may fight against the Turks, or they may fight against the Tubo. You guys should make preparations early."
Zhang Xiaobao said something about writing to Tubo Chide Zuzan, even if it was a general mobilization before the war.
Some generals only knew about fighting, and their reaction was slow, and they didn't understand the meaning behind them, and agreed to leave to find their team, while others showed an ordinary look on their faces, but a stormy sea was thrown in their hearts.
But Sudden Yu was one of them. After leaving the cabin where Zhang Xiaobao was meeting, he didn't go to his team, and went back to his cabin to start thinking about things.
"General, do you really want to help Zhang Xiaobao and the others fight? If you only fight the Tubo and the Turks, our Songmo Governor's Mansion can easily be retaliated by the Turks, but they are next to each other."
The aides who also followed him worriedly asked Ke Suddenly.
"To fight, no matter who you fight, you must fight. If you don't fight the Turks, Zhang Xiaobao will fight us. They are driving the ducks to the shelves, and the cows do not drink water and press their heads."
But Su Yu did not hesitate at all, and immediately stated his attitude.
"General, do they dare?" The staff still did not want to fight the Turks.
"Is there anything they didn't dare? This time he wrote to Tubo asking Tubo to send troops. It's simple to say, but it's not the case at all.
If Tubo dispatched troops, it would be offensive to eat too much, and it is afraid that Tubo would support it behind his back. When the time comes, Tubo feels that he has been deceived and will vigorously retaliate against Tubo.
If Tubo doesn’t send troops, it’s even simpler. Zhang Xiaobao and Zhang Xiaobao can declare that the places where Jinchuan’s weak water line is not belong to Tubo. Otherwise, how can they not send troops? Then it will use Tubo's unilateral destruction of friendship as an excuse to stop the food exchange with Tubo. It is summer when Tubo is short of food.
If Tubo could not help sending troops to fight Zhang Xiaobao, it would be even better. Zhang Xiaobao Wang Juan directly swept his troops to attack Tubo. They were not from Datang, and would not feel distressed if they died. Let us attack directly, regardless of the loss. When Wang Juan led the elites and fought a thousand miles again, Tubo was completely abolished.
Even if our people died and we didn't win Tubo this time, Datang used to send troops again, would there be anyone in Tubo who could fight? This is what people play is called strategy. They shouldn’t be allowed to go to Jilizhou. It’s better not to persecute Li Longji like that at the beginning, and finally push him into a hurry, hey..."
Suddenly regretting in his heart, he finally saw the greatness of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan. These two were the swords in Li Longji's hands.
After 40,000 people walked ashore for a few days, and two days away from the desert, Chide Zuzan of Tubo also received a letter from Zhang Xiaobao.
Watching it over and over again, the more I look at it, the more I get sad.
"Who had the idea to dig an opening in Wangjiang County in Shuzhou? Check it again. Anyone who has a chance to survive catches them and kills them."
Chi De Zuzan stayed in the palace of Jincheng Princess Li Nunu, and gave an order to the person who was waiting to be told.
This order is inexplicable. Why did Zamp remember it after a long time
Princess Jincheng has never seen the letter. She is from the Tang Dynasty, but she has nothing to do with things on both sides, let alone how hard she can use.
Hearing Chi De Zuzan's order, he approached and persuaded: "Zampo, kill the people again, fear the chills."
"Not killing is not enough to subdue the hatred in my heart. Without those who have ideas and hands, why would Wang Juan come and beat us? If we don't beat us, how can we let people disturb the economy of Jiannan Dao, if not like that, what about Zhang Xiaobao? Will revenge? Now they are here again, this time more powerful than last time, forty thousand troops, to fight or not to fight?"
Chi De Zuzan was unable to trouble Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, so he had to find his own fault.
Princess Jincheng rolled her eyes, she wanted to say something, but she didn't say anything after all.
