Zhangye, after months of siege, the border town finally regained its vitality after the siege was lifted, and the caravan that followed the Shenwu army to the west followed the footsteps of the army into the city, and they brought all kinds of rare goods from Guanzhong, but they were useless things for a town with limited spending power.

Now Zhangye, what is needed most is food. Fortunately, the Shenwu Army carried a large amount of grain and grass with the army, and after the baggage team slowly arrived, it also filled part of the grain into Zhangye's treasury, and then the governor's office gave it to the soldiers and civilians in the city who were waiting to be fed.

After seeing Miao Jinqing again, Qin Jin couldn't help but have red eyes, Miao Jinqing, who was originally very tall and strong, was already as thin as skin and bones.

At the beginning of Miao Jinqing's governor of Hexi, Qin Jin had not yet opened a government and built a government, nor did he restore the old system of prime ministers. Now, Qin Jin has finally made up his mind to rightfully grasp the supreme power of cultural relics in the imperial court.

"Prime Minister, Jin Qing has not disgraced his mission, although the big cannibal is fierce, he has not been able to take a step further east, only the people have suffered a lot, I hope that from now on, Jingbian in Hexi will be peaceful, and this ......disaster will not be repeated."

This was a banquet, and Miao Jinqing also found that it was a little out of place, so he changed his conversation again and mentioned the western expedition.

"May the prime minister raise troops to destroy the Great Food, shock the Western Regions, and raise the prestige of my Tang Dynasty!"

When these words were raised, everyone present echoed them:

"Raise my Tang Guowei!"

Qin Jin picked up the wine bowl in front of him and drank it all in front of Miao Jinqing. Then he put the bowl on his desk and said:

"This time, Qin raised troops to go to the west, so that the Western Regions would not use swords and soldiers within sixty years, and his wish would be achieved!"

He did not mention the destruction of the Great Food, but only mentioned the use of military power to deter the various ministries of the Western Regions, which is the fundamental interests of the Tang Dynasty.

In fact, it is true that it is better to destroy the Great Food, but for Chang'an, which is thousands of miles away, there is no direct benefit. However, if the Western Regions can no longer be harassed by swords and soldiers for sixty years, the imperial court's financial expenditure in the Western Regions will be greatly reduced.

"Qin Yan has led 30,000 Tibetan cavalry from the plateau to join our army in the west of the Green Ridge, and the Great Cannibal will soon be driven out of the Western Regions......"

Qin Jin had great expectations for Miao Jinqing, and the governor of Hexi played the role of Dinghai Shenzhu, and this time he passed through the four towns of Anxi in the Western Regions, and he also planned to let him accompany him.

The banquet ended quickly, after all, it was still wartime, and even if he drank alcohol, he didn't let go of the amount of drinking, and the main purpose was just to motivate officials and generals at all levels in Zhangye City.

Before nightfall, military newspapers from the west of Zhangye were sent back one after another. However, after Qin Jin saw it, his brows were tightly locked, and seven or eight out of ten of the horse exploration rangers sent out were hunted by the cavalry of the Great Cannibal.

This doesn't bode well, but it's hard to make any further big moves until you get to the bottom of the big cannibalism. Almost bloodlessly relieved the siege of Zhangye, which exceeded Qin Jin's expectations.

After recovering Liangzhou, Qin Jin originally planned to have a decisive battle with the Great Cannibal under Zhangye City, but the battle of Zhangye in preparation was like a heavy punch in the air, and the people who flashed were a little uncomfortable.

Obviously, the commander of the Great Cannibal, Yousufu, is a person who is well versed in the way of commanding the army, and the morale of the Tang Dynasty's Western Expeditionary Army is flourishing, and it is definitely unwise to face it head-on now, if it can gradually wear down the morale of the Tang soldiers in Hexi, make them depressed, and then rise up and counterattack. So, the problem is not as rosy as it seems.

However, these issues were only discussed by Qin and Jin on a small scale, and they would not be spread out to affect the morale of the army.

"Prime Minister, Abu has sent back news!"

It was Zhang Yuanzuo who came in, and he had been in charge of communicating with these great generals since he subdued Hasim and Abu.

After Qin Jin read the military report, he raised his head.

"Where is Hashem now, let him come to me!"

Soon, Hasim met the famous prime minister of the Tang Dynasty.

What surprised him a little was that the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty was actually very young, very different from what he imagined, and he was not an old man with a gray beard.

"The villain Hasim meets the prime minister, he is willing to do, he is willing to be the loyal servant of the prime minister!"

After subconsciously saying this, he glanced at Zhang Yuanzuo from the corner of his eyes with a little weakness, after all, he had said it to this young and heroic general more than once after surrendering. But Zhang Yuanzuo didn't seem to hear it, and stood solemnly without squinting.

Hasim was apprehensive, and when he saw the Tang Dynasty prime minister with a smile on his face, he was a little relaxed.

"Abu went to lobby the Persian Shawasz, how likely do you think it will be successful?"

Hearing Qin Jin's question, Hasim thought for a while, and replied cautiously:

"There are a large number of Persians in the coalition army, and Shawash is relatively stubborn, if Abu goes to persuade him to surrender, it should not be a big success!"

Abu left Zhangye and did not tell Hasim, before coming to see Qin Jin, Hasim was still wondering why Abu, who had been inseparable from him for many days, suddenly disappeared.

Now it seems that Abu is planning to deal with it alone and make a "vote for the name"!

Hashim hoped that Abu would fail so that his role would be more prominent, and in fact it was a very low chance to persuade Shawash to surrender. Even if he goes in person, he may not be able to do it.

Sure enough, Qin Jin brought up the contents of the military report, and Xia Washi refused Abu's persuasion to surrender, but Abu did not return to Zhangye, but stayed in Kongtong Mountain, waiting for the opportunity.

Qin Jin was not worried that the persuasion had failed, but the real reason why Abu stayed in Fulu Town and did not return to Zhangye.

Hasim was sleek and smart, and immediately understood the Tang Dynasty Prime Minister's worries, and he must have suspected that Abu had surrendered and rebelled. It is not impossible, but at this time, he must stand up and speak for Abu, because to speak for Abu is to speak for himself.

But Qin Jin did not listen patiently to his defense, but asked some questions about Yusuf and the composition of the forces in the coalition army. Hasim gave everything he could, telling the truth what he knew.

Qin Jin nodded after hearing this, these are roughly the same as the situation detected by the detectives, only one thing, he noticed that there was also a eunuch in Yusuf's tent, that is, Mejid, who was sent by Abbas, the governor of Khorasan.

"What is McGid's status in the military?"

Hasim froze for a moment, since McJid was in the army, he has been living in seclusion, basically not interfering with Yusuf's command, but the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty suddenly asked McJid carefully, which made him suddenly realize that McJid is not the person who is hidden by Yusuf's side!

"Mejid is an envoy sent by Abbas, the governor of Khorasan, and his status is no less than that of Yusuf, they are all subordinates of Abbas, but in terms of military power, Yusuf should be superior!"

Qin Jin nodded again, thoughtful.
