Li Siye is a very familiar name, Gu Qing didn't have much research on history in his previous life, and he can only rely on intuition in this life.

The name that can make him feel familiar must be the person who left his name in the history books, such characters are usually amazing characters, famous ministers and famous generals, and they can learn from history, their lives have passed through a short period of time, and they have left traces after all.

Although he hadn't met Li Siye, Gu Qing immediately decided that he had to include this famous general.

The appointment order was written by Gu Qing himself, as the deputy envoy of Anxi Jiedu, Gu Qing has the right to mobilize any soldiers, horses and generals in the four towns of Anxi, with Gu Qing's slightly strong character, this appointment does not even need to be discussed with Gao Xianzhi, and after it is written, he will immediately order someone to send it to Shule Town.

Talents are rare, and talents who train Mo knife hands are even more rare, this Li Siye, Gu Qing is going to decide.

As for the money that needs to be spent to train Mo Daomen, it is not difficult for Gu Qing, Gu Qing may be a little reluctant to command a war, and the first command can only be regarded as a decent novice, but Gu Qing is responsible for the ability to make money.

At the same time as issuing an order to Shule Town, Gu Qing immediately ordered the round Li Sima of the Jiedu Envoy Mansion to speed up the expansion of the city and the construction of the city, and the strategy that Gu Qing wanted to use now was to raise soldiers with merchants, and the wool should come out of the merchants.

The bazaar was completed, Qiuzi City became the most prosperous city in the Western Regions, the goods transit station in the east and west regions, the flow of materials and capital will be extremely huge, as the deputy envoy of Anxi Jiedu, Gu Qing only needs to levy a small amount of taxes on merchants in the name of the government, provide them with a good business environment and safe storage, and collect some fees from it is a great astronomical amount.

The taxes paid by the merchants are used to train and raise soldiers, expand soldiers, buy grain and grass and build armaments, and then create elite divisions to protect the rights and interests of merchants, so that the virtuous circle formed will continue again, Qiuzi City will become more and more prosperous, and Gu Qing's power will also grow stronger and stronger.

With the command to annihilate the 20,000 troops of Tubo, Gu Qing's prestige in the official government and the people of Qiuci City has gradually increased, and he has become the real power figure in Qiuci City second only to Gao Xianzhi, and Gao Xianzhi is now very knowledgeable, except for wartime, he basically doesn't care about hiding in the back house on weekdays, so now the actual leader of Qiuci City is Gu Qing.

At the sound of the order, the officials of the Jiedu Envoy and the people who were recruited began to work day and night, and the new urban areas and new bazaars were slowly outlined.

On the third day, Li Siye, the envoy of Shule Town, led several retinues and was ordered to rush to the garrison camp outside Qiuci City.

Gu Qing was overjoyed when he heard the news, and took his personal guards to greet him out of the city in person, looking ecstatic as if he had ended a long-distance relationship.

The standard of welcoming Li Siye is very high, Gao Xianzhi has never received Gu Qing with such a high standard when he came to the camp to inspect before, but for Li Siye, Gu Qing must show sincerity and accept this famous general.

Led a team of guards out of the gate, and saw a burly military general standing outside the gate in armor and helmet from a distance, his body was standing still on a towering mountain, his face was full of beards covering most of his face, and a pair of eyes were indifferent and focused, like a sharp sword, which could pierce people's hearts.

Gu Qing couldn't help but admire, according to the weights and measures of later generations, this military general is about two meters tall, just looking at his body is a fierce general, if the offensive and defensive combat power of the army can be expressed with specific values, if this fierce general is included in the account, the attack value of the entire army can probably increase by more than 100 points, it is simply a peerless magic weapon.

How can a famous sword fall into the hands of others? This person must return to Gu Qing.

"Brother Fierce General!" Gu Qing stepped forward and surrendered his hand happily.

Li Siye was at a loss: ???

"Brother Li, God has been friends for a long time, and it is an honor to see you today! Ha ha! Gu Qing quickly changed his tone and laughed.

Li Siye didn't seem to be accustomed to Gu Qing's style, and saluted Gu Qing with his sword at a glance: "The last general, Shule Town, envoy Li Siye, will meet Gu Houye, the deputy envoy of Jiedu." ”

As soon as Li Siye moved, several followers behind him also saluted, their movements were uniform, and a sense of slaughter arose, obviously there were only a few people, but between their gestures, it was as if thousands of troops were pressing on them, which made people feel quite suffocated.

Gu Qing became more and more happy, and a small detail could be seen that Li Siye was very good at leading troops, which can be seen by looking at the performance of these entourages under his command.

"Brother Li is exempt from courtesy, they are all robes of the Anxi Army, don't be vain, you and I can be commensurate with brothers." Gu Qing said enthusiastically.

Li Siye said stubbornly: "The courtesy in the army cannot be abolished, how can the humble military man of the last general dare to be commensurate with the Hou Ye brothers." ”

Gu Qing shook his head, this guy is too serious, and he doesn't seem to know anything about officialdom etiquette, he is really a military man who does his duty.

Then Gu Qing warmly invited Li Siye to enter the camp and enter the tent, Gu Qing ordered to serve wine and food, and as soon as the words were spoken, Li Siye suddenly got up and hugged his fists and said: "Master Hou, please forgive the last general for not knowing how to lift, you can't drink alcohol in the army, and the last general can't break the precepts, otherwise you won't be able to convince the public." ”

Gu Qing was stunned.

A person who is so upright must lack friends in his life.

"Uh,...... Yes, you can't drink alcohol in the army, I just deliberately tested you just now, but I didn't expect you to stand the test. ”

Gu Qing's old face turned red, and the more he talked, the more embarrassed he felt that he had committed cancer.

Li Siye's straightforwardness opened Gu Qing's eyes, and without waiting for a word of greeting nonsense, Li Siye got up and said, "I wonder if there is a military order for Hou Ye to summon the last person to come to Qiuzi City?" If there is a war, the last general will ask for a war. ”

"Brother Li, don't worry, there has been no war in Anxi recently, and I summoned you to ask for another matter."

"Master Hou, please command."

"I want to transfer Brother Li to the garrison camp of Qiuzi City to train an elite Modao battalion for me, what does Brother Li think?"

Li Siye was stunned for a moment, and then said heavily: "Please forgive me for not being able to do it." ”

Now it's Gu Qing's turn to be stunned, I'm the deputy envoy of the four towns of Anxi, the second-in-command of the entire Anxi, and I actually don't give face?

"Why can't it?"

"Hou Ye, the official position of the last general is 'Shule Town Envoy', which is appointed by the military department of the imperial court, if Hou Ye wants to transfer the last to Qiuci, he also needs the appointment document of the imperial court, otherwise how can the military generals of Shule Town serve in Qiuci Town? It is unreasonable to reason and the law. ”

Gu Qing suddenly felt a stuffy mass in his chest.

Li Siye, this guy is not only upright, but also a dead-hearted man, the Jiedu envoy is in charge of the power of a military town, and the appointment of military officials can basically be decided by the Jiedu envoy, and the imperial court usually does not interfere, which is also an important drawback of the formation of feudal towns in the Tang Dynasty.

Li Siye is undoubtedly a clear stream in the Tang Dynasty, only recognizing the appointment documents of the imperial court, not the envoy of the festival, and even less the deputy envoy of the festival.

It's so faceless, if it weren't for his mastery of the method of training Mo Dao Hand, such an upright and dead-eyed guy would have been driven out by Gu Qing's order.

Gu Qing couldn't help but think to himself, is this considered a monopoly by intellectual property rights? Is it true that people who have mastered unique skills are so horizontal?

As it turned out, it was really that horizontal.

"Brother Li, the military town appoints military generals, but you can let the Jiedu envoy do it, you don't understand this rule, right? If you think that I am not big enough as the deputy envoy of Jiedu, how about I ask Gao Jieshuai to write you an appointment? Gu Qing's smile was a little reluctant.

Li Siye said stiffly: "Lord Hou forgives the sin, even if it is the order of Gao Jieshuai, the last general also needs to ask the court to play before he can be transferred, in short, the last general must see the transfer document of the Chang'an Military Department, otherwise the last general will not be able to take office, there is no trivial matter in the army, and the last general does not want to be held by the villain, and the last general will be disloyal and unjust." ”

Gu Qing frowned: "I personally gave the order, if I am responsible for the responsibility on the Chang'an side, what do you have to do with it?" Which villain would dare to frame you? ”

Li Siye was silent for a long time, bowed down and hugged his fists: "Please forgive the Hou Ye, the last general really doesn't dare to transfer away from Shule Town, and the Mo knife team that the last general has personally trained is in Shule Town, and the last general lives and dies with the robes, and he really doesn't want to leave them to serve in Qiuzi." ”

Gu Qing understood when he heard it, Li Siye had concerns, maybe there was a villain in Shule Town who was at odds with him, waiting for him to show his flaws and take his handle, so Li Siye was so desperate to see the order of the Chang'an Military Department before he dared to leave.

The villain hiding in the dark is difficult to prevent, it is not a matter of the big officials and the small officials, a report of the black report is sent to Chang'an, where are there any big officials and small officials in front of Li Longji, and it is a big disaster if it is verified.

Today's initial meeting with Li Siye was quite unexpected by Gu Qing, Gu Qing originally thought that if he wrote an order by hand, Li Siye would happily go to Qiuzi City to take office, and without saying a word, he would train an elite Modao battalion for him.

I didn't expect it to end like this, and I couldn't even solve the basic transfer problem.

Now the only way is for Gu Qing to write a note and send it to Chang'an immediately, and then wait for Li Longji's approval, and then the military department will issue a formal transfer document, and it will take at least three months to transfer Li Siye to Qiuzi City reasonably and legally.

For three months, Gu Qing couldn't afford to wait.

"Haha, okay, since Brother Li doesn't want to, I didn't say it, it's rare to come to Qiuzi City, Brother Li might as well play for a few days and then go back......" Seeing Li Siye open his mouth to speak, Gu Qing suddenly said with a cold face: "Brother Li, this is my military order, stay, play for a few days and then go back, do you have any opinions?" ”

Li Siye's mouth opened and closed for a long time, and he said dejectedly: "The last general has no opinion, follow the order of the marquis." ”

Gu Qing ordered Chang Zhong to be summoned in, introduced Chang Zhong and Li Siye to each other, and then ordered Chang Zhong to take Li Siye to Qiuzi City to hang out, the focus was to take Li Siye to visit Gu Qing's political achievements, such as the expansion of the city and the construction of the city, as well as the places of interest and historic sites of the two shops that were smashed, so that Li Siye had some more intuitive impressions of Gu Qing in his heart, pragmatic and diligent, prosperous and prosperous, but his temper was not very good.

Calling Chang Zhong aside, Gu Qing whispered to him to do more ideological work on Li Siye, and to publicize the glorious and righteous image of Hou Ye in front of Li Siye, the publicity can be exaggerated, the harder the better, and then gave him a piece of silver cake and asked Chang Zhong to take Li Siye to the Qinglou to have a good time.

In short, black and white, light and dark, righteous and evil, all try it on Li Siye, what if there is a chance to tempt this upright heartless eye and lead him into the abyss of depravity?

…………

After Chang Zhong and Li Siye retreated, Han Jie, who was standing next to him, suddenly sighed: "Master Hou, this General Li is really a man, both upright and upright, it is rare to see such a character in the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty......"

Gu Qing's heart moved, and he smiled: "I heard that you used to be so virtuous in Zuowei?" ”

Han Jie seemed to recall the dusty past, and sighed with an expression of reminiscing about the vicissitudes of life: "Yes, at that time, the last general was too upright in the left guard, and offended many colleagues, and he was often sued by villains behind his back, and the officials who didn't know the truth often reprimanded me, but I couldn't argue, there was a time when the general really didn't want to work in the army, and wanted to return to his hometown to farm......"

Gu Qing also sighed: "Fortunately, I rescued you from the sea of suffering, let you regain your life, look at your current appearance, flamboyant tongue, mouth cheaper than me, as if opening the door to a new world, Han Jie, just rush to this point, every time you see me, you should make a five-body bow to the ground......"

Han Jie's lips twitched a few times, and he couldn't help but say: "Master Hou, it's really not my wish for the last general to become like this now, but staying by Hou Ye's side has unknowingly become such a virtue, and the last general is sometimes deeply ashamed, and when no one is there at night, he has slapped himself more than once, and even wants to pull out a knife to wipe his neck......"

Gu Qing smacked his lips, always feeling that he was actually scolding himself for what he said, but he couldn't find any evidence......

After pondering for a long time, Gu Qing discovered the essence of the matter, he was his top boss, and when the top boss suspected that his subordinates were scolding him, he didn't need any evidence, just punish him severely.

"You...... After going out, run four laps around the school field and go through the drill process twice. Gu Qing said slowly.

Han Jie was shocked: "Master Hou, why?" ”

"No, the military orders I gave are carried out by you, and I don't need to explain them to you." Gu Qing said lightly.

Han Jie took the order with a bitter face.

"Also, send a few clever guards to Shule Town, inquire about which villain Li Siye offended in Shule Town, find out quickly, and I will help him cure this heart disease."

"Yes!"

…………

The Modao Battalion must be formed, this is the goal that Gu Qing has set for himself, and the scale must be at least a thousand or more people in order to play a role in turning things around in a vicious battle.

The soldiers and horses did not move, and the grain and grass went first.

Forming the Modao Battalion requires a lot of money, so making money has become Gu Qing's main task now.

In the afternoon, Gu Qing led the guards into Qiuzi City and personally inspected the market project.

The round Li Sima introduced the progress of various projects to Gu Qing with a flattering face, today's Qiuzi City can be said to be in full swing, the busiest is the people and craftsmen, although Li Sima is a little flattering, but he is still quite down-to-earth, from the perspective of the rigorous attitude of the craftsmen and the people when they work, it is getting closer and closer to the goal that Gu Qing wants to achieve.

It is planned to build four markets, and Gu Qing has seen that two of them have been built, namely the porcelain and silk markets, and there are already merchants in the markets, and some shops that are eager to make money have even opened, so as to seize the opportunity of Qiuzi City.

Walking to the porcelain shop, Li Sima focused on the location of the shop, pointed to the four vacant shops in a row and told Gu Qing earnestly that these were the four porcelain shops left for Hou Ye in advance, and the location was the best in the market.

Gu Qing nodded with satisfaction, he was also a businessman in his previous life, and he could see the quality of the location of the shop at a glance.

After urging Li Sima to hurry up and finish the progress day and night, Gu Qing was about to go back to the camp to sleep, when a resentful voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Hou Ye doesn't even want to take care of the concubine's inn after entering the city now?"
