"There is probably something wrong with Shi Zhongtang."
Dou Zhong was able to be entrusted with important tasks not only because he was the emperor's confidant and his ability was naturally not bad.
"From the initial pushback to the disappearance now, I dare to say that some changes must have happened in southern Xinjiang. I guess that idiot Shi Zhongtang just can't control the army."
Dou Zhong glanced at Wei Zhong, and from that day on, he gave up targeting Wei Zhong.
The Northern Xinjiang Army triumphs, and then the general trend of the world will undergo profound changes.
At this time, stability is the top priority.
"That idiot specializes in recruiting foreigners into the army. He says that foreigners are easy to fool, and they are brave and not afraid of death. He can drive them to die without any trouble. Now it's good."
A veteran general said coldly: "General, I'm afraid this battle can't be fought."
"yes!"
Although the Chang'an army has a large number of troops, there is no southern Xinjiang army on its side, so they have no chance of attacking the northern Xinjiang.
"To be honest, we are not as good as Northern Liao." Dou Zhong revealed his family scandal, "But the Northern Xinjiang army can destroy Northern Liao. If the Southern Xinjiang army does not arrive, our only way is to wait for Chang'an.
Give orders, or wait for the Northern Xinjiang Army to dispatch."
Wei Zhong couldn't help but sneer in his heart when he looked at these generals who were so high-spirited a while ago and talked about what they would do after conquering the northern border. Now they were all humble and gentleman-like.
Wei Ling'er sent another letter the day before yesterday, telling her father to hide behind him once the fighting started.
This was a bit embarrassing, but it was out of love and care for my old father.
Wei Zhong felt warm in his heart.
"We just don't move." The chamberlain accompanying the army said: "Our troops stationed here are a threat. Does Yang Ni still dare to send troops to attack?"
"yes!"
"It's just that the transshipment of grain and grass costs a lot of money," an official said.
"Don't worry about this, Chang'an has plenty of food and grass!" The servant said calmly: "We want to see if Yang Ni dares to send troops!"
The sound of footsteps was heard, and the general who had been ordered to deal with Dengzhou's scouts rushed in with a pale face, "General, it's bad, the Northern Xinjiang Army is here!"
boom!
Everyone stood up suddenly, but a table fell down. When everyone looked, they saw the waiter covering his knees, his face flushed. The table in front of him fell down, and tea was everywhere on the floor.
In those eyes!
They are all panicked.
"Who?" Dou Zhong couldn't believe it.
"Northern Xinjiang Army," the general said.
"He dares!?" Dou Zhong said, "Go and have a look."
"Give us a hand!"
The waiter injured his knee, but no one paid attention to him, so he limped out.
When we arrived at the edge of the camp, we saw more than two thousand cavalry in front of us.
The people and horses were in awe.
The flag of Northern Xinjiang is flying high.
The leading general pointed at the camp and said something to the people around him.
"Rebel!"
Dou Zhong narrowed his eyes and said, "Leave the camp!"
Five thousand cavalry gathered and surrounded Dou Zhong and others out of the camp.
"Kill them!" the chamberlain said through gritted teeth. He kept rubbing his knees and grinning.
The two thousand cavalrymen did not withdraw, but looked at them coldly.
Dou Zhong shouted: "Who are you waiting for?"
This is an upright attitude.
The general on the opposite side said: "The lieutenant under the command of the Duke, Zhao Yong!"
Zhao Yong had long since left behind the youthful feeling of being a new soldier. At this moment, he showed his majesty and said calmly: "The Duke ordered me to investigate, why are the troops here?"
Dou Zhong said: "Crunt against the traitors!"
"Who is the traitor?" Zhao Yong asked.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, the chamberlain screamed, "Yang Ni! That traitor Yang Xuan!"
Whoosh!
More than two thousand people all looked at the servant, and Zhao Yong said: "Whose dog is this? In Northern Xinjiang, dogs that bark randomly will be beaten to death!"
The chamberlain looked at Dou Zhong, "Destroy them!"
Dou Zhong ignored him, "I remember that the Duke of Qin once swore that he would live up to the Tang Dynasty in this life. But now he is approaching the Chang'an army camp. What does he want to do?"
"The Duke ordered me to deliver a message."
Zhao Yong looked solemn, "Leave or fight? We will decide in ten days! If we don't leave in ten days, the northern Xinjiang army will go south!"
The chamberlain trembled, "He...is he planning to rebel? God, hurry up! Go to Chang'an and report to Your Majesty!"
This eggless thing!
Dou Chong wished he could not slap the servant to death. He took a deep breath and said, "The sky is clear. If the Duke of Qin dares to raise his troops and go south, he will be treason!"
"Yes, I brought it here. Do you want to keep me?" Zhao Yong asked.
Dou Zhong was silent.
"That's it, farewell!"
Zhao Yongze's horse turned around and said, "Let's go back!"
The sound of horse hooves gradually faded away.
"Yang Ni is going to rebel, he is going to rebel, God! What should we do? What should we do? We have to go back to Chang'an..."
"Crack!"
The chamberlain covered his face and looked at Dou Zhong angrily.
"You disturbed our military morale before the battle. If it weren't for the fact that you were born in the palace, I would have chopped you into pieces!"
Dou Zhong turned around and went back.
Later, everyone will gather.
The chamberlain also came, limped to his seat, sat down and sneered.
"Yang Ni is about to fall out." Dou Zhong looked solemn, "But there is a problem. It is not easy to mobilize troops in winter. Moreover, the Northern Xinjiang Army has just returned from the war in the north. Yang Ni must let the soldiers rest and let the wounded recover.
Already..."
The more times a soldier is injured, the more experience he has.
The most important thing for generals is these old pawns. One old pawn can support ten new pawns. And one old pawn can also lead ten new pawns.
Therefore, Yang Xuan will definitely wait for these old soldiers to return to the army before heading south in a big way.
"Spring begins!" said a general, and glanced at Wei Zhong.
Yang Xuan threatened to send troops south, and the most embarrassing thing was Wei Zhong.
Dou Zhong said: "Report to Chang'an urgently. In addition, order the army to pack up and be ready to set off at any time."
The chamberlain exploded, "How dare you retreat without His Majesty's orders?"
Dou Zhong looked at him coldly, "The general is outside. The southern Xinjiang army has not been waiting for a long time, and the Chang'an army can't support it alone. Can't you see? Yang Ni wants to use the Chang'an army to threaten northern Xinjiang as an excuse to raise troops."
Since the Chang'an army was defeated by the Northern Xinjiang army, why did they stay here?
Dou Zhong took a deep breath and said, "Send someone to Taoxian County to negotiate with Yang Ni. We must find out his attitude. Go!" He pointed at the chamberlain.
"Why is it us?" The waiter jumped three feet high.
Dou Zhong said: "Just because you are His Majesty's man."
At this time, the identity of the emperor's envoy is most useful.
The servant was unwilling in every possible way, so Dou Zhong pulled out the horizontal sword and sneered: "Ten breaths away, get out!"
"Dou Zhong, we are going to Chang'an to sue you!"
The chamberlain is called Ma Kun, and he is the chamberlain employed by the emperor. This trip to supervise the army was thought to be a good job, but he did not expect that it would end up in a fatal matter.
He carefully considered it, and if it was about the Holy Family, he would not be afraid of Dou Zhong. But under the general situation, if he did not agree, the emperor would not be able to spare him even if he returned.
Dou Zhong, Dou Zhong!
"We will remember it!"
Ma Kun entered his room, sat for a while, and then asked Yuan Yun, who was accompanying him on the mirror stand, to be called.
Yuan Yun is a smart man. Knowing that Ma Kun was in a bad mood at the moment, he came in and said: "The two armies are fighting. Don't worry if we don't kill him."
yes!
How could we forget this?
Yuan Yun felt relieved and immediately thought of meritorious service.
"How many spies does Jingtai have in Northern Xinjiang?"
"Quite a few, what do you mean..."
"Since Yang Ni is planning to rebel, what's the use of keeping those secret spies? Use them all."
Ma Kun said pitifully: "First, spread rumors that Yang Ni is colluding with the remnants of the Northern Liao Dynasty, that is, the eldest princess is preparing to rebel. Second, do whatever it takes to assassinate Yang Ni!"
Yuan Yun just thought about it and was horrified, "Yang Ni is surrounded by a group of big men who are quite fierce. It's difficult to assassinate him!"
Ma Kun looked at him, "Hard?"
Yuan Yun lowered his head and Ma Kun said coldly: "We can command you to wait during this trip. Didn't Zhao Sanfu say that?"
Yuan Yun smiled bitterly, "It's not easy for those brothers..."
"It's even more difficult for Your Majesty." Ma Kun said: "Spread rumors and anger him. When people are angry, it is easy to make mistakes and look for opportunities to assassinate. After the incident is completed, Zhao Sanfu will have to make way for you."
Yuan Yun looked struggling, and Ma Kun patted him on the shoulder, "Don't you want glory and wealth? Do you just want to be inferior to others all your life? Even we want to work hard... not to mention you have a wife and children."
Yuan Yun nodded vigorously, "I will listen to you!"
"Isn't this right?" Ma Kun smiled hoho hoho, "What does this man do in life? He just wants to suppress others, and he just wants to make others kneel down and call us "yeah", don't you think so?"
…
Tao County.
In the winter, Aunt Ding's biscuit business is a bit worse, but fortunately she has a stove to keep warm, so she can suffer less.
Even so, every winter, her hands would become chapped and her ears would get frostbite.
As soon as the baking started in the morning, a man from Jinyiwei came and said, "Thirty more!"
In fact, Aunt Ding's biggest customer is Jin Yiwei. In the eyes of others, Jin Yiwei is a sinister figure, similar to the King of Hell, but in Aunt Ding's eyes, he is the God of Wealth.
"Hello!"
While doing this, Aunt Ding asked: "Were you on duty again last night?"
Jin Yiwei smiled and said, "I've been busy lately."
"It's the end of the year, so it's time to get busy." Aunt Ding said with a smile: "The Duke has returned home in triumph, and it's time for Northern Xinjiang to live in peace for a few years."
"An Sheng? Can't be safe." Jin Yiwei said.
"What's going on?" Aunt Ding raised her head and pointed to the direction with the tongs, "It's not stopping over there?"
Jin Yiwei nodded, "The army is in Xingzhou, are you worried?"
Aunt Ding shook her head, "The Duke is here, what should I worry about? Besides, if the Duke really wants to take action, I can kill those fools with a pair of fire pliers."
"That's the truth." Jin Yiwei smiled.
At this time, there were more and more guests. Someone heard the words and said: "Those watchdogs are not doing their job and are still colluding with Beiliao. They should be beaten."
"Those are the people in the imperial court!" Some people were afraid of speaking ill of the emperor because of their righteousness.
"You have to do human affairs for the people in the court, right?" someone said sarcastically.
"But they didn't do anything!"
"By the time they do it, it will be too late."
Later, the argument here reached Yang Xuan's ears.
"The people are quite dissatisfied with Chang'an's army."
Helianyan said.
Yang Xuan hugged Yang Laoer and sat lazily in the study, "You think it's time to feel peaceful?"
"Yes!" He Lianyan said: "People say that without any opponents, our northern Xinjiang should be at peace."
People are thinking, how to inspire the soldiers and civilians in northern Xinjiang under this situation is very difficult.
This is also something Yang Xuan has been thinking about recently.
People have peace of mind. At this time, if he raises the banner of rebellion, will the soldiers and the people get tired of it?
Once this kind of mentality develops, asking for rebellion becomes a joke.
Therefore, after returning to the division, many people suggested raising troops to attack the Chang'an army, but Yang Xuan suppressed them all.
Some people say that he is scrupulous about his oath, while others say that he is worried about public opinion.
In fact, Yang Xuan was just looking for an excuse to make the soldiers and people of Northern Xinjiang share the same hatred.
"If Zhao Yong comes back, let him come to see me immediately."
"yes!"
After the business was finished, Helianyan went to tease Yang Laoer. She reached out to touch Yang Laoer's fat cheeks and felt that it felt so good.
Yang Laoer also reached out to touch her.
It’s just a kid! It doesn’t matter.
Helianyan let him grab her hair.
Then Yang Laoer exerted his strength.
"ah!"
He Lianyan screamed, and if Yang Laoer pressed harder, her head would move downwards with this force...
"My lord!"
Jiang He'er, who came with a document to report the matter, saw He Lianyan lying in front of Yang Xuan as soon as he came in. He couldn't help but blushed with embarrassment, turned around and ran away.
"Erlang let go!"
Yang Xuan felt that He Lianyan was seeking death. The key was that this posture could easily cause misunderstandings.
After finally getting away, He Lianyan rubbed his head and went out. Jiang Heer came over and said, "You are actually the Duke of the country..."
"What's wrong?" He Lianyan said, "It hurts."
"They all said it hurt, and it was true." Jiang Heer looked as sure as an experienced driver.
He Lianyan touched her and said with a smile: "The Duke will let you sleep with me later."
Jiang Heer then went in to report.
"My lord, everything has been settled now, and all the officials are in place. Liu Gong asked me to report to my lord, and you will decide the time."
"Has the time come?"
Yang Xuan hugged Yang Laoer and thought about the infant child.
And the father who drank poisonous wine calmly.
"Father, you have been waiting for this day for a long time."
