In order to help the Tibetan monkey sell medicinal materials, Gu Qing also fought hard, and even wrongfully took a punch from Huangfu Sisi.

If Lazawang knew that Gu Houye had endured such humiliation for his friend, he would definitely bow to him.

Huangfu Sisi didn't understand why Gu Qing suddenly helped the Tubo people sell medicinal materials, and Gu Qing didn't bother to explain, only told her to do what she said, don't ask the reason, and don't care about the result.

Seeing Gu Qing's secretive face, Huangfu Sisi snorted angrily, but still agreed.

"Every time Hou Ye comes to the concubine's shop, he either eats for nothing or owes debts, either smashes the shop or orders the concubine to do things, Hou Ye is really unkind to the concubine......" Huangfu Si Si relapsed, and glanced at him with a charming look.

Gu Qing smiled: "Aren't we friends, you don't have to be too polite between friends, you see, I owe you a hundred taels of silver cakes and still haven't paid back the debt, am I polite to you?" ”

Huangfu Sisi laughed angrily at his shameless face: "Master Hou, this is not something worth showing off, you are so cheeky to say it, do you think it is not glorious to owe money?" ”

"Shame, but happy." Gu Qing smiled and said: "It's the uncle who owes the money, so I asked you to help with things, and you honestly agreed, which made me even more determined not to repay the debt." ”

Huangfu Sisi threw a wink with the meaning of "dead ghost" at Gu Qing, and snorted lightly: "It's not impossible for a concubine to do things as a concubine, Hou Ye always has to give a concubine an explanation, right?" Either tell the concubine as it is, why do you want to help the Tubo people sell medicinal materials, or ......"

Huangfu Sisi suddenly showed a shy expression, lowered his head and said softly: "Or, Hou Ye will accept the concubine, and the concubine will be Hou Ye's person from now on, and Hou Ye will do whatever he asks the concubine to do, and never ask a word." ”

Gu Qing glanced at her: "Shall I take you into the Leifeng Tower?" Don't be a demon, do what I say honestly, if you need to use the power of the government to spread the rumors of the Tianshan Snow Lotus......"

Saying that, Gu Qing suddenly showed a mysterious smile, and said: "If you use the power of the government, the girl doesn't have to look for me, I believe that there is a girl's backer in the Jiedu Embassy's mansion, and you can find him, in short, I don't ask about the process, but I want the result." The result I want is that within ten days, all the women in the city of Qiuzi will know about the Tianshan Snow Lotus, and know that it can be used to treat menstrual cramps, and then search the whole city to buy this medicine but can't. ”

Speaking of the backer of the Jiedu Embassy, Huangfu Sisi showed a panicked look, covered up his haircut and sideburns, and said with a forced smile: "The concubine does not have the backer of the official mansion, but since the Hou Ye has ordered, the concubine will definitely do it, and without a backer, she can handle things properly for the Hou Ye, and will never let the Hou Ye down." ”

Gu Qing smiled: "You look very embarrassed when you want to cover up, but the way you promised to help me do things is very beautiful." ”

After speaking, Gu Qing got up and left.

Looking at Gu Qing's back as he left without any nostalgia, the smile on Huangfu Sisi's face gradually froze, and a trace of guilt and struggle appeared in his beautiful eyes.

"I can't go on any longer, he has seen that I have a backer, and with his cleverness, it won't be long before everything about me will be lifted, and how ......unbearable I will be then," Huangfu Sisi muttered.

…………

In the camp of Qiuzi, Gu Qing sat under the candlestick and picked up a pen and wrote a book.

Every time I wrote a sentence, I hung my pen in the air, and after contemplating it for a long time, I slowly wrote it again.

This is a piece of advice, called "Pilgrimage to His Majesty the Son of Heaven to Ping Tubo", which describes in detail Gu Qing's strategic plan for Ping Tubo.

This is an overall situation that Gu Qing's personal ability cannot accomplish, he is just a person who lays it out, but he needs the unreserved support of the imperial court to implement it.

You can't defeat a country with your own strength, but if you use the strength of one country to level another country, the odds of victory are much greater.

The only question now is whether Li Longji is willing to believe him, whether he dares to gamble with him, a young courtier.

It is undeniable that this strategic layout is a bit risky, and any link may fail if it is exposed, and the material and manpower invested in the early stage can be regarded as a waste.

But there are disadvantages and advantages to everything, and in comparison, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages.

Gu Qing used a desperate strategy against Tibet, which was also known as an economic war or trade war in the later world.

A year or two later, the Tubo people tasted the sweetness, and even the nobles and heroes of the Tibetan people also tasted the sweetness, so that no one planted barley in the only one percent of the cultivated soil in Tibet, and turned to plant all kinds of medicinal materials.

After a year or two, the output of highland barley, the staple grain of Tibet, will inevitably be greatly reduced, and it will be difficult to supply the people and the army, so they can only use the money to buy grain from neighboring countries, and the only grain in the neighboring countries of Tibet is the Tang Dynasty.

So Tubo and Datang can only reach a strange relationship of friends and enemies, we are still hostile, but it does not prevent me from buying your food, unconsciously, Tubo's food lifeline is slowly in the hands of Datang, and the initiative of the war is also in the hands of Datang.

Once the Tang Dynasty decided to attack Tubo, it only needed to cut off the food supply to Tubo a year in advance, and then raise troops to attack, and the Tubo people at that time could not even eat enough, and there was nowhere to buy food if they had money in their hands, so how much combat power did the army have left?

If a country's army cannot even supply basic food, it will not be far from the country that will die.

This strategy is a real desperate plan, and its evil is even worse than a war with open swords and guns.

The war is just a desperate battle between the two armies, and the death of tens of thousands of people is very tragic, but Gu Qing's desperate plan can make the people of the entire country in Tubo run out of food, and the number of deaths is more than one million.

The early stage of the strategy is a conspiracy, and the later stage of the strategy is an upright conspiracy, even if the Tubo people reacted at that time, there was no one or two years to restore the cultivated land anyway, and they couldn't breathe, in the past two years, Datang has the initiative, and there are too many opportunities.

This strategy was not Gu Qing's first creation, as early as the Spring and Autumn Period, the monarch of Qi State worshiped Guan Zhong as the prime minister, Guan Zhong made a plan for Qi State, purchased a large number of cloth from neighboring Lu State, and did not hesitate to spend huge sums of money to raise the price to buy from Lu State, and the people of Lu State got benefits, and the whole country was woven and spun, and no one farmed the land anymore, and used the money obtained from selling cloth to buy the grain of Qi State, and gradually formed a dependence on the grain of Qi State.

Later, Guan Zhong ordered the food supply to the Lu State to be cut off, the huge vassal states fell apart, and the people of the Lu State fled into the Qi State one after another, and finally the Qi soldiers swallowed the Lu State without blood.

Gu Qing used this method, which seemed to be gentle and harmless, but in fact it was extremely vicious.

How do frogs die? It enjoys it in comfortable warm water for too long, and when the warm water turns into boiling water, it can't jump out if it wants to.

Based on the current relationship and situation between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo, the cultivated land area of the two countries, as well as their respective national strength, grain output, prices, etc., Gu Qing used this desperate plan just right.

When deciding to implement this plan, Gu Qing also thought about and weighed it for a long time.

This strategy has to pay a lot of price, especially money and food. But if this plan is successful, Datang's income is unimaginably rich.

From Zhenguan to Tianbao, more than 100 years, this major trouble has not been eliminated, but under the combat strength of the armies of the two countries, Tubo gradually turned from defense to offense, and took an offensive against the Tang Dynasty.

What Gu Qing has to do is to stab Tubo in the heart of Tubo first when Datang is about to be the weakest, everyone be a pair of difficult brothers, no one should take advantage of the fire to rob, if you are lucky, maybe Datang can still free up his hands to destroy Tubo.

The plan was perfect, but it was difficult to execute.

Gu Qing himself didn't have much confidence, but from the perspective of protecting Anxi's jurisdiction, he must also let the Tubo people stop when Anxi was empty.

…………

In winter, the deep desert of Qiuzi City also feels cold.

In the desert dozens of miles away from Qiuzi City, a caravan of the Hu people was traveling along the trade routes of the Western Regions.

Duan Wuji and Feng Yu, who were wrapped in a thick blanket, each rode listlessly on a camel, Feng Yu looked up at the sky, and suddenly sneezed fiercely.

"I'm really crazy, why do I want to tell Sister Huaiyu that I want to come to Anxi to practice...... Datang is so big, where is the experience is not good, I have to go to Anxi, where birds don't lay eggs......" Feng Yu sighed as he rode on the camel.

Juvenile Lang is always reckless and impulsive, so after middle age, many people often recall their youth half of nostalgia and half of regret.

Because the teenager's decision was not to stay overnight, he might have changed his mind when he woke up, and yesterday's vow became the perfect reason to slap himself today.

Seeing Feng Yu's painful look, Duan Wuji on the side smiled faintly.

Compared with Feng Yu's noisy and lively, Duan Wuji is undoubtedly much more stable, he is only two years older than Feng Yu, but he looks like a middle-aged man in his thirties who has gone through ups and downs, with a polite smile on his face and a story full of vicissitudes in his eyes.

"I heard from the leader of the caravan, we are less than thirty miles away from Qiuzi City, that is to say, we are going to see Brother Gu soon, if you have any complaints, just say, when you meet Brother Gu, you better take care of your mouth, it doesn't matter if Brother Gu drives you back to Shiqiao Village, you don't have to worry about me." Duan Wuji said lightly.

Feng Yu said with a hippie smile: "Oh, I'm just talking casually, you see all kinds of complaints on my lips, but haven't I come to Qiuzi City honestly like you?" Brother Duan, you know me, I just have a little broken mouth......"

Duan Wuji shook his head: "I don't know about you." According to what I know about you, at this time, you should study in Chang'an obediently like Feng Fusheng and them, get acquainted with all kinds of magnates and Confucians, listen to their lectures, enrich your knowledge, and prepare for the scientific examination in two years, instead of coming to Qiuci City with me to suffer hardships and suffering......"
