"You... are you going to go on a mission to the Western Regions?" Zhang Yanji couldn't believe his ears. They had just arrived in Shule City, their waists were sore, and their legs and feet had not yet rested, so they were about to set off again?

Brother Kuoer doesn’t think about himself, he has to think about his brothers. [Baidu Search Member Login] At this time, Isn’t it a waste of everyone’s life to go on a mission to the Western Regions?

Li Kuo sighed and said, "In recent years, the Tang Dynasty has repeatedly started wars with foreign tribes. It is exhausted and urgently needs rest to save combat power. Your Majesty has no intention of having another dispute, so he hopes to win over these vassal states with soft means."

"Then, what about the imperial edict and the documents of the Ministry of War, there should be a reply from the Ministry of War? Why didn't I see the Central Envoy from the imperial court coming to Shule City? Hey, the people who left just now were not from Chang'an, right?"

Zhang Yanji asked questions repeatedly. As usual, these eunuchs came from Chang'an and should have beaten Brother Kuo'er, but why did they no longer see any trace? The eunuchs were incomplete, so they devoted all their energy to taking money. When encountering such thankless chores, they had to release some blood from the generals of the border town to comfort their fragile hearts. Even if they were not ashamed of their behavior, ordinary border town generals would prepare a generous amount of money to them so that they would not gossip about the saint.

His Majesty the Emperor sat upright in the deep palace, so he naturally didn't know what was happening outside. These eyes and ears became their means to control information and trusted them very much.

It is said that it is better to bear the true villain than to blame hypocrites. These eunuchs have the most disgusting things on their faces and behind their backs. How many loyal ministers and generals are wantonly framed by eunuchs because they have not managed their relationship with them, lost their official position, and were wrongly imprisoned?

"It is Your Majesty's decree. Brother Guan led his team to the Western Regions to conduct business. The main purpose is to bring me a message!"

Li Kuo waved his hand helplessly and told the truth. In the eyes of the young man, since His Majesty the Emperor had brought the words, he had no reason to refuse. Although this edict had no effect, if he pretended to be deaf and dumb, he would definitely lose points in His Majesty's heart in the future. What's more, he himself wanted to go to the river. As the governor of Shule, he had the responsibility to understand the situation of the surrounding vassal states.

"What? Do you think this is just an edict written by Your Majesty? It has not even been approved?" Zhang Yanji could no longer suppress the surprise in his heart and shouted out. It was simply outrageous! Brother Kuoer has just arrived in Shule and is not familiar with the place. His Majesty asked him to go to the Western Regions. It would be fine if he was on an envoy, but the official imperial edict should be drafted by the Secretariat and sent it in a hurry for 500 miles. In the end, Guan Yuyuan brought it here?

What is this? Gao Xianzhi is the great archer of Anxi. If there is no official document from the court, how could Brother Kuoer go beyond his level and go to the Western Regions to "unauthorized"? Besides, even if he takes a step back, Brother Kuoer has received Gao Xianzhi's permission, how many people should he take on the mission, which country should he start and end? How should he avoid the eyes and ears of the cannibal along the way, what is the content of the negotiation of the mission, and what kind of promise should be given to the other party?

Did Your Majesty, who had not considered this series of problems, issued an edict and hoped that Brother Kuoer would solve all the problems?

"This is not the key to the problem. We can write a book to Gao Shuai first, and he will definitely allow it." Li Kuo paused and said, "It's just that I was thinking about how many people we should take on a mission. After all, most of the Hu Kingdoms in the Western Regions are now under the control of the great cannibals. The number of people we brought is not safe, and it is too many and too conspicuous. The defense of the Shule generation is very important, and it needs to find a suitable balance point..."

"Oh, I thought I could take a good rest for a few days, but who would have thought that as soon as I settled down, I would have to eat ashes in the river! I am so desperate!" Zhang Yanji saw that Li Kuo had already said something to death, and knew that it would be useless to say more, so he began to complain.

"Going to the river may not be a bad thing. Aren't you always yelling to see Persian beauties? Hehe, you may have enough of it now!" Pu Dahui was very excited. When he was in Chang'an, he heard the beards in the tavern saying that Persian beauties were gorgeous and colorful. How could a man as handsome as Pu Dahui not go to Persia to see?

"Go to you, we won't go to the former land of Persia this time!" Li Kuo smiled and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty's decree clearly states that the main place of mission this time is Xiuxun Prefecture, the Kangju Governor's Office, and will never pass through Anxi Prefecture at the farthest. How can you go to Persia?"

"That's so boring. I heard that the hot figure of the Persian beauty is not a pity for me to not let me taste the taste."

Pu Daqiao smashed his mouth, swallowed and spitted, and sighed.

"We are going to do serious business this time, don't just think about hooking up with beautiful women!" Dou Qing didn't expect that Pu Dazhi had arrived at Shule and could not change this problem, so he hurriedly mentioned it. This area is now under the actual control of the cannibals, and of course they can't use the banner of the Tang Dynasty when they go on missions. If they like Pu Dazhi like him, wouldn't they harm everyone?

"Brother Dou said that we are going to do the main business this time. Whether the old land in Hezhong can be recovered and whether the frontier of my Tang Dynasty can continue to expand west depends on our business!" Li Sheng nodded and analyzed: "In my opinion, we can pretend to be a caravan, and the Hu and Han generations in Hezhong are mixed and the business is prosperous. As long as we act in a low-key manner, we will not be discovered."

Li Kuo thought for a moment and said, "This method is feasible, but how many people should be used for the caravan, and what should we sell?"

"General...I..."

Li Kuo then remembered that Erwa was traveling with Jiyuan caravan all the way, and he should have a good understanding of the market, so he waved his hand to him and smiled, "If you have any ideas, you might as well say it."

Erwa looked here timidly and whispered: "Maybe we can mix the items we sell, mainly silk tea. Brother Guan said that these things are the most intimate in the river. As for the number of people, it is best not to exceed one thousand people, nor too few, not less than five hundred people. Most of the caravans going to the river are doing big business, and too few people will easily make people suspicious."

"Well, I think it's OK, so we can take away all the elites of the Tongwu Camp. These are our brothers who live and die together, and they are the most trustworthy. Even if there is any change on the road, it's easy to make timely adjustments."

Li Kuo nodded and agreed with Erwa's proposal.

"But this horse has to be replaced by a short horse from the Western Regions generation. Although the horse here is short, it is better to be able to lose a large amount of goods. Since we want to dress up as a caravan, we must behave like a decent person and cannot see the flaws!"

Li Sheng was very careful. Although he had only been to Shule for a few days, he had discovered that the breed of horses here was very different from the military horses of the Guanlong generation. If he rode these military horses into the river, wouldn't he have seen the flaws by the big cannibal whistle?

"This is not difficult. As the governor of Shule, it is still easy for Qilang to get some Lite horses from the caravan. At worst, it can be given double the price. These vendors will have to spend time in Anxi in the future, so they are naturally willing to sell Qilang for the face."

Zhou Wujue tore off a piece of baked naan and stuffed it into his mouth. While chewing, he analyzed: "The biggest problem is that we have to find a local guide. At least we have to speak big cheesy and Turkic dialect!"

He said this well. The Hezhong generation was first influenced by the Western Turks, and then invaded by the cultural invasion of the great cannibals. Now in this generation, Turkish dialect and great cannibals have become common languages. As for the local dialect of various countries, it is normal not to speak them.

"Leave this matter to me!" The thunder rider Shi Zhi suddenly stood up and took a big bag: "I am familiar with this generation of herders and vendors, and it is no problem to find a guide or two. As long as the governor believes in me, I will hand over this task to me!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes were cast towards him. Before the internal meeting, everyone opposed Dumo's entry. The reason was very simple. As the confidant of the original garrison of Shule, this son was probably Gao Xianzhi's confidant in Shule to monitor Li Kuo. Furthermore, this man was a Tuqi Shiren. Who doesn't know that it was because of Tuqi Shiren's treason that the Tang Dynasty lost its actual control over the Saiyechuan generation?

But Li Kuo insisted on letting Du Moye attend the meeting. In the eyes of the young man, only by talking to the other party with openness and honesty can he truly integrate into this Shule army. Otherwise, he is likely to be on the brink of Shule army and will never become his confidant.

As for his sensitive identity, Li Kuo kept silent. Gao Xianzhi was still a native of Goguryeo, and he still became the Great Protector of Anxi. As long as he is concerned about the Tang Dynasty, these are not problems.

However, although Dumoray participated in the meeting, he did not speak. This sudden suggestion surprised everyone.

Li Kuo nodded with a smile and said, "This will bring you the deputy general of the capital, but this matter is of great importance. You still need to bring that person to the governor's office. I have to explain some things to him in person."

"I will obey the order!" Du Moyi didn't expect Li Kuo to agree so readily. He was overjoyed and hurriedly held his fists to take the order.

"I'll do it now!" After saying that, Du Moye nodded at Li Kuo, bowed and retreated.

"Brother Kuoer, do you really want to hand over this matter to him? This matter is so important. If that guy leaks the news, I'm afraid..." Zhang Yanji persuaded him when he saw Du Moye left the room.

If you are not my race, your heart will be different. What's more, you are a Tuqi Shiren who has never dealt with! How can Brother Kuoer believe him?

"Loyalty and unfaithfulness are not based on words, but on doing. If I don't give him this opportunity, I'm afraid I will never know whether his heart is aimed at my Tang Dynasty!"

Li Kuo shook his head and smiled, whispering slowly.
