That Yang Si is not a bold person, he was intimidated by this in the camp, he was already scared and sweaty, and he didn't say anything if he asked.

Previously, Qinling allocated him a Fan soldier to play a game, and asked him to recruit some fugitives from the Tang Kingdom who were in a similar situation to him between the border between the two countries, but he did not achieve results for a long time.

After all, although Tubo grew up in the west, it was also regarded as a barbarian state and a foreign land within the Tang Dynasty. Those Guan Long nobles don't even look down on King Yong, and even if they are at the end of their rope, they rarely choose to flee to Tibet.

That is, when King Yong was killing in Chang'an, Yang Si happened to be in Longyou, and knew that his relatives and Qinling were saved, so he chose to flee here in desperation. It's really hard to find a few people like him who are willing to fall like him.

So in the past period of time, Yang Si was basically just fooling around, and there was really no result at all. However, he was familiar with the convenience of the situation in Longbian, and led his army to sneak into the countryside of Longbian to plunder. But he did not dare to go deep into the territory of Longyou, and the border land was mostly poor countryside, and the income was not much.

When he was forced to ask at this time, he didn't dare to say that he had done nothing, so he concentrated on answering another question, that is, how much of Chang'an City's family assets were looted by King Yong. For this problem, there is no concealment, but he knows that the family business is related, and he has no scruples about revealing his wealth, anyway, these family properties are now owned by King Yong.

The generals in the tent did not feel much when they heard Yang Si's family wealth related, and the concept of wealth that they could understand was still the number of cattle and sheep and the number of felt tents, and they lacked much imagination for others.

However, after listening to this, Qin Ling's face became serious, and he said with emotion: "The Yang family's family has accepted such wealth, although Guanzhong is the kingdom of heaven, how can it withstand the greedy and excessive hoarding of you wealthy families?" No wonder King Tang Guoyong wants to attack you, no wonder that vertical son is so strong......"

When Yang Si heard this, a cold sweat welled up on his head, and he really couldn't figure out why Qinling was so malicious to him today, so he simply bowed to the ground and bowed deeply, not daring to say anything more.

Yang Si confessed that it was only one of his families, but the goods involved were already very rich. According to what he said, before King Yong entered Long, he killed as many as twenty or thirty households in a similar family, and if he roughly judged by Yang Si's family standard, he would have obtained a rather amazing fortune. If all of them are exchanged for military funds, it will be enough to support a big war.

But Qin Ling is not just a military general, he is also a great treatise of the Fan State, or his governing ability is not as outstanding as his father and brother, but he is also familiar with government affairs, and of course he understands that to maintain such a huge organization as the Chang'an Shogunate, the consumption is also very amazing, and that batch of goods may not be able to be fully invested in the military.

Previously, when he asked about the turmoil in Tang Guoguan, he mainly focused on the issue of the human situation. But now we need to have a deeper understanding of the supply situation of the Tang army to judge whether the Yongwang is bluffing or really has the confidence to drag the pace of the war for more than half a year.

So his next questions are more pertinent and more profound, but even if Yang Si is not an outright fool, he himself has limited talents, how can he have a deep understanding of Guannei and even Longyou's personnel scheduling.

Let him vent his emotions and insult King Yong for a few words, he can say it for a long time without changing words, but for specific questions, he is confused and vague.

"Rubbish! I don't know where I was born, I don't know what I went through, what is the use of being alive with such an obscene talent! ”

Unable to find out what he wanted to know from Yang Si's mouth, Qin Ling couldn't help but be annoyed, and waved his hand to rebuke him while scolding.

Seeing this, Yang Si couldn't help but panic even more, and hurriedly said: "The servant is still useful, the servant is ...... Ask for a big argument to spare my life, and the servant can guide the army to cross the mountains and cross the border, and enter the attack on Longyou states! Before the servant led people to Hezhou, and inadvertently heard a piece of information, King Yong Denglong, murderous and still greedy, before joining the Tang Dynasty of the party Xiang Qiang fine sealing department, because of not offering goods, was slaughtered by King Yong's envoys, and his assets were sold in Longyou......"

"And what? Let's take a closer look! ”

When Qin Ling heard this, his heart suddenly moved, and he hurriedly spoke again.

This fine seal was originally a large tribe living in the land of Jiuqu, and it had fled when Qinling had returned to China and was not in Qinghai, which caused quite a stir at the time. Although Tubo also sent troops to chase and kill at that time, the land of Jiuqu was still not under the control of Tubo, and the cooperation of the local Hu tribe was not high, so in the end, the fine seal department successfully escaped.

Qin Ling remembered that this fine feudal department was treated quite favorably after entering the Tang Dynasty, so that the Hus in the land of Jiuqu were envious, although they were afraid of the fierceness of Tubo and did not dare to blatantly flee from the clan, but in private the dissatisfaction with Tubo became more and more intense.

But such a Hu Bu with great exemplary significance was actually destroyed by the Tang State before the war, and Qin Ling was keenly aware that this should be related to the Tang Army's fearless posture at this time.

As for Yang Si's statement that he was exterminated because he didn't offer goods, it can be regarded as a fart. King Yong of the Tang Kingdom is now an extremely difficult opponent in Qin Ling's heart, and the deep meaning of his every move is how Yang Si can guess everything.

Yang Si saw that Qin Ling showed a lot of interest in the information he provided, and he secretly rejoiced in his heart, and he was busy telling all the things he had seen and heard in Longbian.

Although he only dared to wander around the cold and barren land on the border, whether it was the destruction of the fine seals, or the large number of merchants in the customs entering Long, and frequently carrying out goods or transactions, they all made a lot of noise in the Longbian states, and they didn't need to bother to inquire to hear it.

In order to show that he knows a lot, Yang Si has a lot of nonsense between his words. And Qinling quickly grasped the key point between his words, besieged the fine seals, collected their goods, and then called on the merchants in the country to sell goods into Longlong for trading.

Hearing this, Qin Ling felt that he had grasped the core of the strategy of King Yong of the Tang Dynasty, that is, to entrust the military financing to the merchants, and trade with the merchants by attacking and killing the Longbian Hu to obtain their ancestral property, so as to obtain the supplies to maintain the operation of the army.

But by doing this, aren't you afraid that everyone in Longbian Zhuhu will be in danger and will rise up to resist the officials and soldiers? And the Tang businessmen can dispatch such a huge amount of goods, even more than the state and county governments? Not to mention anything else, the transfer of property alone can stifle most of the merchants' ability to sell!

All kinds of questions made Qin Ling puzzled, although he knew a lot about the Tang Kingdom, but after all, he was not a native of the Tang Dynasty. After living in Chang'an for several years, the contact area of personnel is also quite narrow, and it is really difficult to accurately estimate how much energy can be extracted from such behavior.

After a little muttering, he lowered his eyes and looked at Yang Si again, his eyes were much kinder: "I used to speak evilly, but I was just tired of you for having a blood feud and wasting time." After all, I have an old relationship with your father, and when I see that his son is not at rest, I will inevitably mourn and be angry in his place.

But if you still have the courage to go deep into Longbian and investigate the enemy's voice and behavior, it is not useless. In this realm of Haidong, I will give you 500 households for you to drive to make a living. But now that the war is imminent, there is no time for you to relax. Since there is such a convenient way, I will give you another 1,000 people, and continue to go deep into Longbian to find out the truth of its personnel. ”

When Yang Si heard this, he immediately felt like he had been pardoned, and he knocked on the ground again and again to thank him: "But if you can use things to help you talk about great plans, the servants will be ruined with their hearts and minds, and they will never give up." ”

Qin Ling gently encouraged his people again, and then carefully told him which news to investigate next, and sent several of his own cronies and followers to follow Yang Si's action.

Although this part of the information provided by Yang Si does not allow Qin Ling to deduce the true situation of the Tang army's provisions, it at least shows that the Tang army also used some new means to raise supplies. From this point of view, the Tang Army may really have a plan to fight in Qinghai for a long time.

The current situation has deviated from Qinling's original idea. Therefore, he no longer dares to blindly think about the good, and needs to consider some worse variables and make preparations to reverse the disadvantage.

"The front battalion has 5,000 troops, go to Moliyi, and be stationed on the spot, I can't take my life, and I can't fight easily!"

Since the Tang army did not plan to enter directly with a large army, Qinling was ready to press up, and the troops advanced from Shannanyi to Moli in Haidong. Moliyi is located at the intersection of the Dafei River and the Huangshui tributary, and it is also an important node of the Tangfan Road.

Unless the Tang army was only satisfied with controlling Chiling, as long as it had the slightest attempt at the Haidong region, Moliyi would be a strategic area that could not be bypassed. Previously, because he was sure that the Tang army would push the army directly, Qinling did not leave too many men and horses in Moliyi, and he needed to concentrate his superior forces and finish his work in one battle.

But now the Tang army has put on a fighting posture, and then gathering the heavy army in Shannanyi, it is of little significance.

In particular, the information provided by Yang Si made Qinling realize that the Yongwang of the Tang State was too contemptuous of the Hu people, and a large tribe with tens of thousands of accounts traveled thousands of miles and risked the death of the clan to join the Tang Kingdom, but was destroyed by him. No matter what the reason, such an attitude towards Zhuhu will greatly discourage Zhuhu's enthusiasm to serve the Tang State.

This is good news for Qinling. Since that King Yong wrote poems to ridicule and smear him, of course he also had to publicize his atrocities, so that the Hus in Tuyuhun gave up all kinds of beautiful illusions about the Tang Kingdom.

"You galloped through the realms, preaching the fall of the fine seals, focusing on the land of nine songs. The army passed through the Dafei River, gathered momentum towards the land of Jiuqu, and told Jiuqu Zhuhu that if you don't send troops to help me, I will attack it! ”

If the Tang army really does not move forward, this will undoubtedly make Qinling fall into passivity. But now that his troops are pointing directly at the land of Jiuqu of the Yellow River, it is up to the Tang army to make a choice, whether to sit back and watch the land of Jiuqu be plundered by Tubo, or take the risk of attacking.

In fact, if there is more power in his hands, Qinling does not need to give the Tang army a chance to choose, he can be entangled with the Tang army in Haidong, and take advantage of the Tang army's manpower and material resources to gather Chiling, go straight to the Yellow River Jiuqu, and then enter Taozhou, so that the Tang army can take care of one and lose the other.

"I hope that my son will have a good result when he returns to China this time."

Political isolation made Qinling's dispatch on the battlefield constrained.

If you can form a strong defense of the old nobles in the country, with the support of his troops, and then face the current situation, whether it is fighting skill or fighting strength, you can be fearless, just like in previous years, the father and brother sat behind, Qinling led the army outside, defeated all the enemies ahead, and was not afraid of any challenge!
