Li Shouzhong walked into the inner guard's men with the inner guard's soldiers uneasily and into a small room where an officer sat, and four strong men stood beside him, staring fiercely at him.
he.
"Kneel down!" a big man shouted.
Li Shouzhong had no choice but to kneel down. The officer glanced at him, "What's the name? Where did you come from? What business do you do?"
"The villain Li Shouzhong, a merchant from Lishi County, Hedong, came to Wuyuan County to sell goods."
"What goods are sold? Where are the tax bills?"
"It's all common, tea, sugar, paper, pen and stationery."
Li Shouzhong took out a tax bill from his arms. This was the certificate he received when he first entered Wuyuan County. A big man took it and handed it to the officer. The officer took it and said, "The soldiers guarding the city said, you pay it."
There is insufficient tax and there is a suspicion of tax evasion, so I will review you."
Li Shouzhong's heart suddenly relaxed. It turned out that it was because of this matter. He thought that his identity had leaked. It was probably because he did not have the benefits of the officers defending the city when he entered the city, so they took revenge on him. He hurriedly said: "Mr.
When we pay taxes, we put all the goods down and the tax officials checked and approved before we paid the tax and released it. I absolutely did not intentionally evade taxes."
"It's hard to say that some businessmen still have jewelry on their bodies. When we verify it clearly, if there is no problem, we will naturally let you go."
The officer gave a look to the big man next to him, and the big man walked forward. "Come with me!"
He took Li Shouzhong to the next room and imprisoned him. The officer immediately got up and walked towards the inner courtyard. In the lobby of the inner courtyard, more than a dozen officials from the inner court were surrounded by a table. There were three horizontal knives on the table.
These three swords are the horizontal swords that Li Shouzhong and others were confiscated when they entered the city. Generally, there will be no problem with swords, but Li Shouzhong and his group of eight people carried three military horizontal swords, and they were numbered continuously, which caused the
The guardians and soldiers were vigilant.
All three horizontal knives were numbered. A civilian officer was checking the source of the number. He had a thick numbering of military ordnance numbers in his hand, which was a copy they bought from military weapon supervisors for a high price.
The Neiwei Prefecture is also the general intelligence agency of the Fengzhou Army. The general was named Wei Ben. He was one of Yang Yuanqing's iron guards. His chief was Xie Sili. He was a scholar who joined the army in Dunhuang. He was born in the Jiangnan Xie family and was named Men. He was in Dunhuang.
The eighteen young civil servants who joined the army have gradually become important civilian officials in the army and take on the responsibility.
The officer who interrogated Li Shouzhong came in and saluted the governor Wei Ben. Reported: "The businessman has brought him, and he has temporarily stabilized him."
Wei Ben nodded, "Continue to stabilize him, don't let him be suspicious. Send someone to check his goods, and do it a little more like it."
"Yes!" The officer turned around and went down.
At this time, Xie Sili, who was looking for the number, smiled, "I found it!"
He put the numbers together at the corner and closed it: "These three horizontal swords are all from Taiyuan County soldiers, and are one of the two thousand horizontal swords sent to Li Yuan in January this year."
Wei Ben yin for a moment, "You must report this matter to the general manager immediately!"
A quarter of an hour later, Wei Ben and Xie Sili appeared in the office of Yang Yuanqing of the General Administration Office. After listening to the two of them report the situation, Yang Yuanqing asked again: "Where are other weapons with three horizontal knives?"
"Other weapons are very ordinary. Although they are well-made, they are not items from military weapons prisons."
Wei Ben hesitated for a moment and said, "I am also worried that these three horizontal swords would flow out of the military camp. It is very common for mainland soldiers to steal and sell weapons."
Yang Yuanqing shook his head, "Taiyuan Mansion doesn't, Li Yuan has always been cautious and careful, and he has been very strict with this kind of thing. More importantly, this is a knife with a continuous number, and the two thousand knives led by Li Yuan are ranked in the top ten, which means that
It's probably for his personal guards."
Yang Yuanqing pondered again, "There are ways to determine that there are many differences between soldiers and ordinary businessmen, such as horse riding postures, walking postures and his words and behaviors, etc., so you can observe them."
Xie Sili asked: "Master, if you can be sure, should you take the opportunity to pull them out?"
Yang Yuanqing shook his head and smiled, "Put out the old ones, the new ones will come. Actually, I know very well about that grocery store. If it is really a piece of information point in Fengzhou, why can't it be used for us?
”
Wei Ben and Xie Sili looked at each other. They understood what Yang Yuanqing meant. They hurriedly saluted, "Then let's make arrangements now!"
"Si Li stayed for a little while!"
Wei Ben went first, Xie Sili stood aside, waiting for Yang Yuanqing's orders. Yang Yuanqing smiled slightly and said, "Your clan brother has done a good job in Shangluo County and has been promoted to Guoyi Captain."
Xie Sili's clan brother is Xie Yingdeng, both of whom are famous men in Jiangnan. Their fathers are brothers. After Nanchen was destroyed, Xie Sili's father was exiled to Dunhuang, while Xie Yingdeng's father was escorted to Chang'an.
There are frequent contacts at home. Xie Yingdeng lived in the Xie family in Dunhuang County for three years when he was a teenager. Two years ago, Xie Sili introduced Xie Yingdeng to Yang Yuanqing. Yang Yuanqing asked Xie Yingdeng to follow Yang Wei to Hongnong County, and saved Yang Xuangan at the most critical moment.
Now Xie Yingdeng has become Yang Xuangan’s confidant.
Xie Sili was extremely smart. He immediately guessed what Yang Yuanqing meant, "Does the manager want me to go to Luo County too?"
Yang Yuanqing nodded in admiration. Xie Sili was indeed smart and immediately guessed his thoughts. He said in a dilemma: "I received information from the capital. Yang Guang ordered Yun Dingxing to build a new ship within two months. I guess he
I want to go to Jiangdu to arrange my own retreat. If Yang Guang goes to Jiangdu, then my father's chance to make a comeback will come. However, most of the Yang family members are stupid people and cannot achieve great things. You can use the Dunhuang Xie family to
I went to join Xie Yingdeng and asked Xie Yingdeng to introduce you to my father. I will let Yang Wei speak for you and strive to become my father's confidential person after the uprising, and give him an important task."
Xie Sili nodded silently, and he gave a deep bow, "The humble position will not disappoint the general manager!"
Yang Yuanqing smiled again and said, "You can bring more than a dozen military guard soldiers to come and pretend to be the generals of the Xie family. In the future, they can become your helpers."
"Thank you, General Manager, I will get up immediately!"
Xie Sili left, Yang Yuanqing slowly walked to the window with his hands behind his back. More than a dozen chrysanthemums in the yard were blooming in a straight and clean manner, and they were grinding in a lot of grinding. There were still a few flowers in bud to bloom. They had to go through the frost again before they could show their charm.
In a few months, the eleventh year of Daye will be over.
The situation in the Central Plains is becoming clearer and clearer. Li Yuan has accumulated strength in Taiyuan and is ready to move; Li Mi conquered Li Yangcang, shocking the world; Dou Jiande has a huge power and swept Hebei; Du Fuwei is traversing the Jianghuai River and is domineering; Xiao Xianlong is wandering in the bottom and is about to roar
As Yang Guang fled to Jiangdu, it means the beginning of the world's hegemony, and this day is getting closer and closer.
Yang Yuanqing only felt a heat current in xiong, and he had been waiting for many years at this moment.
On the grassland south of the Turkic tent on the banks of the Egen River, a team of more than 100 Sui soldiers guarded several civil servants slowly walked in the north. The civil servant was over thirty years old, with thick eyebrows and deep eyes and clear eyes. It was Fengzhou.
Military household Cao participated in the military service of Wei Zheng. He was ordered by Yang Yuanqing to go on a mission to the Turks. After more than ten days of long journey, he was about to arrive at the important place of the Turkic tent.
At this time, a group of more than a thousand Turkic cavalrymen rushed over from afar, instantly surrounded the Sui army and pointed their bows at them. The Turkic commander rushed out on horseback and shouted loudly: "The Sui Dynasty thief was thieves,"
Why did the soldiers invade the Turkic realm!"
After the Yanmen battle, the Sui and Tu families had completely broken their faces and became enemy countries. The trade between the Turks and the Sui Dynasty was cut off. The Turkic soldiers were extremely hated when they saw the Sui army, and their attitude was no longer as respectful as before.
Wei Zheng said calmly: "I am the envoy of Fengzhou, and I will go to the Turks under the order of General Yang to meet you Khan!"
Wei Zheng spoke Chinese, and a nearby person was engaged in the translation into Turkic language. When Turkic soldiers heard that it was the Sui army in Fengzhou, they were frightened and retreated one after another. The Turkic people believed in the strong and their strength. At this time, Yang Yuanqing's reputation in the Turkic
It is far superior to the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty.
When the commander of the thousand-man heard that it was an envoy sent by Yang Yuanqing, he did not dare to come, so he said, "There is a denial area in front of him. Please follow us. You will be killed if you break free!"
After being engaged in translator, Wei Zheng smiled slightly, "Please please!"
The commander of the thousand-man waved his hand and the Turkic soldiers were divided into two teams, monitoring the Sui army toward the Turkic tent.
In the battle between Yanmen, although the Turkic army lost nearly 200,000 troops, it did not hurt the Turkic energy. Among the nearly 200,000 troops killed and injured, most of them were Tielle vassals, and the Turkic army had only 40,000 deaths.
The rest of the people were killed by Yang Yuanqing in Guanxi.
The biggest loss of the Turks was Shibi Khan's prestige. On the way back, the Turkic meng tribe was extremely dissatisfied with Shibi Khan's command. The great chief, Wanda and several other tribal chiefs were preparing to attack Shibi Khan at night.
Welcoming Wutu is Khan, but the matter is leaked, Shibi Khan takes the lead and kills Wanda and annexes 20,000 troops of the Mengwu tribe.
Although this is just a small cha song, it indicates that Shibi Khan's status began to shake and his prestige was greatly damaged. The Turks themselves are a large group composed of countless tribes, and the Turks did not rely on benevolence.
Maintaining systematic governance depends on military merits, interests, and the prestige of the strong to make major tribes surrender. Once the Turkic Khan loses these three things, his status will be in danger.
In the past ten days, Shibi Khan Duji was extremely worried. The defeat of Yan Men made him unable to serve the Turks within the country. His generals were also dissatisfied. This time he went south to lose a large number of cattle and sheep, but he did not get it.
benefit.
In the tent, Duji paced back and forth with his hands behind his back. He had to do another big thing to restore his damaged reputation and maintain his Khan's position.
Attacking the Western Turks, attacking the Wutu tribe, then attacking the Sui Dynasty, or attacking the Khitan in the east were nothing more than these four choices, and he was unsure of his mind for a moment.
At this time, a shiguard outside the tent reported: "Yang Yuanqing of Fengzhou sent an envoy to come!"
Duji was stunned, and he hurriedly said, "Please come in."
