In April, Li Dao justifiably got the result of opening the mansion, and the sense of accomplishment of this glorious ancestor made him more and more fluttering, thinking that he was invincible in the world.

Unbeknownst to him, a plot that had to be executed through his hands had been activated.

Li Xian walked in with an article.

"Uncle, there is a person named Su Ze over there in Xia Yang who wrote an essay. The article is short and popular, which is to criticize Ma Teng and Han Sui for their ambition and wealth, waging wars, plundering the people, and scolding them for going to the court to ask for guilt. ”

Li Wei said with a little joy, "It's a good thing, reprimanding them can show our justice." ”

Li Xian said, "However, we are privately persuading Ma Teng and Han Sui to surrender, will they feel humiliated because of this article and refuse to negotiate peace and trade privately?" ”

Li Dao said disdainfully, "You don't understand this, now it's not whether they want to surrender or not, but the Son of Heaven is on our side, and if they don't surrender, they are openly rebelling." ”

"If they were smarter, they would quickly rein in, and then ask people to write a reprimand for Du Yu and Chong Shao, who are already dead, and then obediently surrender."

Li Xian suddenly realized and asked, "Then what are we going to do?" ”

Li Wei said, "We want to publicize this article, those arrogant scholars have always disliked us, and this article is good for us, so we have to publicize it." By the way, you said that the person who wrote this was from Xia Yang's side? ”

Li Xian sighed, "Yes, I thought that little girl wanted to blame us for a good thing?" ”

Li Dao said, "Hmph, you think too much, she will help us by doing this." In addition to this, there is also 300,000 stone military rations last month, which helped us a lot and made the cubs under us more obedient.

"She only needed a few dilapidated counties to arrange for refugees to farm for us. It's worth it. You have to remember that you must seize the opportunity of such a deal, and you must not miss it. ”

"My nephew got it."

At this time, Li Dao's other nephew, Li Bei, walked in.

"Tell my uncle! Dong Bai sent someone to visit, saying that she was going to play the imperial court, and she wanted to go back to her hometown to sweep the tomb and worship Dong Taishi and the clansmen. In addition, it is necessary to set up Yongzhou to defend the homeland. The messenger is in the house. ”

Li Dao didn't hear the rest of the content at first, and he couldn't help nodding. When I heard that Yongzhou was invited, I didn't react for a while.

"Ah, it's almost the Cold Food Festival. It has been nearly two years since Taishi Dong suffered an accident, and he should indeed worship...... Wait a minute, please set up Yongzhou, what is this for? Call the messenger, and I will ask. ”

After a while, the messenger was brought in.

A young man with a slight scar on his face walked in, his eyes were resolute, there was no superfluous movement, and he bowed directly: "Weiyang Junfu Lieutenant Cao, Feng Mou meets the general of the Che Cavalry." ”

Li Wei asked him to get up, he thought that he would come to be a scholar who can often be seen in Chang'an City, but he didn't expect this person to come to see that he had experienced hardships and hardships, and he didn't want him to serve as Wei Cao, probably a poor son from the county around him.

Li Dao asked him about his identity first, after all, he opened the mansion immediately, and he was also slightly interested in this talent appointed by Dong Bai after opening the mansion.

Feng Mou introduced: "I was originally from Dingyang County, Bingzhou County, I was born in a poor family, and my family also had a little land and property for me to study the scriptures. More than ten years ago, the northern border was plundered by the Qiang tribe, and most of the county's population took refuge in Sanfu. ”

"Because my parents were newly mourned, I refused to leave my homeland during the Ding Worry, so I was held by the Qiang people. Later, Weiyang Jun went out of the town of Xiayang and gave grace to the Qiang people, and I was exchanged for 100 catties of corn by the Qiang people. Because he is dedicated to restoring his homeland and is familiar with the border terrain, he serves as the lieutenant of the monarch's mansion. ”

Li Wei also resonated with him when he heard it. He was born in Niyang County, Beidi County, next to Sanfu, but Beidi County almost existed in name only, and his hometown had long been lost. This is also the reason why he worked hard in Dong Zhuo's army in the past and was quite kind to the soldiers.

At this time, he had a good impression of Feng Mou, and asked some trivial things, and then got to the point.

"Weiyang-jun sent you over, and I already know what you said. First of all, I am very much in favor of this trip to Longxi, if it weren't for the heavy responsibility and mundane affairs on the Chang'an side, I would also go to worship together. ”

"It's just that the road to the west is not stable, and the Huangfu Song, who occupies the area of Longxi, has an enmity with the Dong family, how should I deal with it?"

Feng Mou said calmly: "This is related to the second article, please set up Yongzhou. Liangzhou is a large land, Ma Teng, Han Sui, and Huangfu Song each dominate a corner, and it is difficult to convey the orders of the imperial court and our Western Liang Army. ”

"Don't say that ordinary soldiers return to their hometowns, even if Weiyang Jun wants to worship the clansmen, they must be cautious, and this situation is really the pain of our Xiliang army. The world's heroes didn't dare to say anything in person, and they were laughing at my Xiliang Army as an army that had left their hometown. ”

Li Wei expressed a little indignation when he heard this, but he had focused on the court before, and he didn't dare to distract Xiliang at all, and now he had no intention of restoring Xiliang.

"However, General Che Cai could take this opportunity to set up the six counties of Beidi, Anding, Hanyang, Longxi, Wudu and Wuwei as Yongzhou separately. installed reliable cronies to take important positions, and left Ma Teng in Yongzhou, while Han Sui and Huangfu's families were arranged on the edge. ”

"In this way, the general does not need to send troops and horses, but only needs to use the order of the imperial court to intervene in Xiliang and open up trade routes. The world will know that it is the general's cultural and martial arts that are unparalleled in the world to create such a feat. ”

Li Dao has always controlled Emperor Han Xian, but he is not good at using it. The meaning of this Feng Mou's expression is very simple, that is, to use the victory of the war to force the Xiliang warlords to divide power and take the opportunity to install their own people. It's really good and harmless.

"The candidates for Yongzhou are all drawn up by the general, but because the actual power is in the hands of Ma Teng, Han Sui, Huangfu Song and others, it is estimated that the meaning of supervision is the mainstay. I, Weiyangjun, waited until Yongzhou was established, and then I planned to leave. ”

Li Wei said that he would give an answer tomorrow and asked Feng Weicao to take a break.

After the person left, Li Bei asked, "Uncle, do you see how we reply, the messenger said that if you can, you will be on the table soon, and Dong Bai's side is also ready to leave as soon as possible." ”

Li Wei said, "This matter is indeed very good to us, but the above table should be done by us, so that the world will remember our great achievements, not her." ”

"You go and send a message to Song Guo and ask him to start preparing for the table. Tomorrow, we will tell Feng Mou from Xia Yang, and we will say that we agree, but we will prepare the establishment and personnel. ”

Li Bei's eyes flashed with a glimmer of brilliance, and he replied, "No problem." But uncle, how are you going to arrange the position in Yongzhou? Do you want your nephew to pick some reliable people to go over? ”
