Chapter 57
In mid-August, Xu Ping formally submitted a press conference, requesting to induce and annihilate the main force of Yu Zanghua Ma's troops in Xi'ancheng.
Xu Ping listed the reasons for doing this. The two core points are to annihilate Yu Zang Huama, shock the hearts of the people of the Western Bound and make those tribes close to Dangxiang feel fear. Another is the important strategic position of Xizun City, which is the intersection of the middle and northern line from Chang'an to Jincheng County since the Han Dynasty connected to the Western Regions. Once Xizun City is occupied, it can threaten Lanzhou across the mountains in the northwest, and Huizhou along Zulichuan in the southwest. The road connecting Tubo in the Tang Dynasty was the Pingxiang Road on the southern line, and the road in the Xizun City was the Hermitage Supervisor, which was relatively desolate and was completely abandoned after it was in Tubo. However, although the road was abolished, the foundation was still there, and it was not difficult to reopen it.
Xu Ping believed that he had tried his best to consider it, and the court should agree happily. Unexpectedly, such a clear strategy still caused quarrels. Li Di expressed his support, but Chen Yaozuo and Han Yi opposed it again. They believed that Qinzhou was mostly local soldiers and did not have the elite main force of the imperial guards. It was too risky to go to war with large enemies. Once it failed, Longyou would be unstable. If Dangxiang occupied Qinzhou, the entire situation would deteriorate, so we should strive for peace. They suggested that we should build a big city in the Gangu area, cut off the road to the west and the south, and then slowly plan it.
It is hard to explain reasoning. You said you should be proactive, but he said that you should be defeated before you use your troops. You said that you have considered various possibilities and made corresponding arrangements. He said that you are not afraid of ten thousand, but you are afraid of one thing, so you should seek stability first.
Several memorials, even if they were all 800 miles in an expedition, half a month had passed. Xu Ping was too lazy to handle the various official documents of the Privy Council. According to the original plan, Lu Fang cooperated with Yang Wenguang to start exploring the terrain of the Gangu area in detail and preparing to build a city. Whether it is fighting or not, this city will still be built. When Yu Zanghuama fights, Xu Ping will decide how to fight. He will have the right to act cheaply outside, and after all, it depends on the result of the battle. As long as he wins, everything will be easy to say.
Li Di is rough and tough, and has a bad reputation in the center. There are actually many officials who support Xu Ping, but they are unwilling to agree with Li Di, which makes the situation quite passive.
As September comes, the autumn is clear and the valley is still green, but the jungle is already stained with the jungle on Xiaolong Mountain.
On the renovated Longsaka Road, a strong man in his thirties carried an iron sword and led a green donkey with his luggage, slowly walked from east to west. Looking at the surrounding mountains and forests as picturesque as poetry, he suddenly whistled up to the sky.
The whistle sounded loudly and the breath was long. A group of birds were shocked in the woods next to it, flying around in a flash.
Xiqing was escorting the Sansipuzi's convoy back to Qinzhou from Fengxiang Mansion, but was shocked when she heard this long roar. Qin Feng Road is now gathering, so there is no need to worry about thieves and strong men on the busy Guanlong Road, so she couldn't help but be curious.
He rushed forward, looked at the man who was leading the donkey, and bowed to him, "I wonder what this brother is called? Below is the festive celebration of the Sansi Shop in Qinzhou, everyone is called the 'little supervisor'. Seeing that his brother Fengshen and Junyi is definitely not an ordinary person!"
The man smiled and said, "I am from Qingzhou, Jingdong. My surname is Wang Dan and the name is Tu. When I was young, I learned fencing from a village master and often walked among the mountains and forests. A few years ago, I came to Lingnan and saw the scenery there. I suddenly saw this autumn scenery and suddenly rose up."
Joyful "Oh" sounded, and his young mind was curious about these wandering figures. He couldn't help but want to make friends. After getting off the horse, Joyful said: "Qinzhou is a place that is the west, why did my brother come here?"
Wang Tu said: "Western people use troops to fight, which is the time for men to make achievements! I have been recommended by the villagers and come to the Northwest Army to do an errand."
Festive and excitedly said: "So did you come to the army? All the people in Qinzhou are not as familiar with as me, so it is better to travel with you."
After saying that, he asked the people in the convoy to lead a horse and let Wang Tu ride it, and his donkey was tied to the car.
Asked, Wang Tu's family was poor since childhood and had difficulty living, so he went to Wang Qiao, a fellow tribe in Zibo, and learned art to make a living. Wang Qiao's family was plundered by the Khitans in the Xianping period. He entered the Khitan alone and searched for many years without results. After returning to the village, he did not care about the world and called himself "Zhushiweng". He just fencing and talking about war. He thought that one day the court would attack Khitans in the north, and he would go north to take revenge with his sword. Unfortunately, he waited until his death and did not wait for this day.
When Shi Yannian went to Liangzhou, he summoned these familiar Jingdong Yiren to Lingnan to make achievements. Wang Tu also arrived there after Wang Qiao's death and achieved success through military achievements.
After Fan Feng was impeached by Pang Ji, the people in charge of military affairs in Yonglianglu were Wang Yan and Sun Mian. Wang Yan served as the general, and Sun Mian was appointed as the deputy director. Sometimes it was hard to tell where the person was. These two people had a grudge with Xu Ping and were sent to Lingnan. Unexpectedly, they were able to make a fortune there. Jiaozhi had already been eaten by them. Now they attacked Cham City in the south and attacked Ailao in the west. Even Dali was frightened every day. Lingnan now had a different situation.
Wang Tu and others went to Lingnan with Fan Feng and Shi Yannian. Once the emperor was in power, they had a minister. Now that Wang and Sun were in power, their lives were not easy, so they might as well come back and not find a way out. Li Di is from Jingdong Road and Puzhou. He has been an official on Jingdong Road many times and is friendly to Fan Feng. He mediated from it and arranged most of these people to Qinzhou. At least Shi Yannian took care of them here. In fact, Fan Feng was repeatedly impeached, and he had the intention to attack Li Di. Li Di, who did not form a clan, could not be defended.
He listened to Wang Tu's experiences and experiences in Lingnan with great enthusiasm, and never got tired of it. The teenager was at the age of dreaming. Although Heiqing wandered around with Manager Zheng, he still felt that the outside world was very big and he had too little knowledge. One day he would go out to take a look. This is human nature, who has not passed by this age?
Wang Tu came from the west of the capital. His enlistment was not a formal transfer from the Privy Council, but he had to be recruited separately by the Qinzhou General Administration. He had previously had an official position, but he could not go to the inn to stay on the road, so he had to bring his own dry food.
After many years in the army, Wang Tu saved some savings and gritted his teeth and could still afford it. However, he learned everything from Wang Qiao since he was a child. Even if it was a thousand miles away, he would come with one person and one donkey. Besides, he had heard people say that horses in Qinzhou are cheap, and the price of a horse in Beijing is that he could buy a few good horses in Qinzhou, so he would not spend that money in vain.
After leaving the capital for many years, I missed the festive season and asked Wang Tu about the current changes in the capital from time to time.
Wang Tu said: "The capital is the world's number one city, and now it is even more amazing. Originally, the court should have difficulty using troops in the northwest. When I got there, I realized that it was far from that. Since last year, a senior and important minister, the royal family, had voluntarily written to the court to ask for a reduction in salary and help the war in the northwest, and they were rejected. Although the war in the northwest, the court did not lack money at all, so how could they reduce their gratitude? Besides, I heard from people that the court, who is in charge of the three departments, once told people that the court is different from before. It is not that it is not that it is not that it is not that it is not that it is used to save money without spending money, but that the more money it gives out, the richer it is. I don't know what the reason is."
