In February of the fifth year of Zhide, Tang Yuan gave Chen Bao a family affair, the daughter of a local aristocratic family, who was of mixed Chinese and Han descent, and was very good-looking.

In March, he gave Tang Hu another family affair, the daughter of a local rich man's family, before Tang Hu was noisy, he must also have a wife of mixed Chinese blood, he is called the Western Regions style, Tang Yuan met his wish.

In April, he sent a letter to Nalan, the daughter of an old local Xiucai family.

In May, Min Yue, the general of Zhenxi, handed over the seal of the general of the Anxi Protectorate and the tiger talisman, and Tang Yuan officially took over Jiaohe City and jointly managed Jiaohe affairs with Min Zhenxi, the marquis of Jiaohe. It is worth mentioning that his title is Acting Deacon. And before he accepts the edict, he must agree to the secret decree of the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother asks that in the case of holding the Jiaohe, the four towns of Anxi will also be brought back to me, and the time limit is three years, in these three years, as long as you take a town, it will be regarded as your Tang Yuan's credit, and Tang Yuan is required to work steadily and steadily to complete the great cause of unifying the Western Regions within twelve years.

The four towns of Anxi are Shaye, Qiuzi, Khotan, and Shule. The one that now occupies the four towns is the Yue Dynasty, which was jointly established by the descendants of the Qiuzi Kingdom and the Dawan Kingdom.

In order to recapture the four towns, the first thing to overcome is the difficulty in the heart, because when General Min Yue was in Jiaohe City, the relationship with the Yue Dynasty was actually good. There are many exchanges between each other, and they also fight the Turks together, and now the Empress Dowager Cao suddenly ordered to take away the control of the four towns, which may not be a bit benevolent, Tang Yuan decided, first try to negotiate with the Yue clan, if it can be resolved peacefully, in fact, it is the best.

Just when he was about to negotiate, the Tang clan gate valve sent Tang Jiaqi, the granddaughter of the second master's family, to Jiaohe City to marry Tang Yuan, and Tang Yuan felt that his head was big for a while.

Because he has become a fact with the girl of the Lin family, now that the eldest son of the second grandfather of the Tang family has personally walked thousands of miles with his daughter and sent his daughter here, can he refuse?

Instead of twisting and pinching, it is better to be honest with each other, Tang Yuan directly talked to the eldest son of the second master's family about his current situation, hearing this, the eldest prince was expressionless, and after thinking for a long time, he said: "You can't let my daughter do it for you." ”

This sentence was like a boulder pressing on Tang Yuan's heart, he just said, "I'll go and see the girl of the Lin family." ”

"Do you need her to make decisions for you?"

"It's not that she needs to be in charge, it's just that people's hearts are made of meat, and I can't see her in pain so ruthlessly."

Seeing that Tang Yuan and Lin Qiaoer have a good relationship, the eldest prince is not embarrassed by him, but just gives him three times to serve Lin Qiaoer, if he gets married, he can let the girl of the Lin family be a flat wife, but the lady of the main house must still be the daughter of the Tang family.

Tang Yuan was full of sweat to find Lin Qiao'er, and after this incident, Lin Qiao'er was furious and ran away from home.

It's gone.

Tang Yuan sent people all over the city to search, but he didn't find it for three consecutive days, and on the third night, Miss Qiao'er came back by herself, in order to take care of Tang Yuan's career, she reluctantly agreed, but from now on, she must accompany her on even days every month, and she can only accompany the daughter of the Tang family on odd days.

On May 28, Tang Yuan got married, and in the middle of the next month, the eldest son of the second grandfather's family returned to Beijing, and at the end of June, he officially accepted Lin Qiaoer as the second wife.

The two ladies didn't seem to have the right temper, and sometimes quarreled because of things, Tang Jiaqi disliked Lin Qiaoer for being too noisy, and Lin Qiaoer disliked Tang Jiaqi for always talking to her in a tone.

The ladies were not in harmony, Tang Yuan scratched his head a little, for fear that Lin Qiao'er would suddenly have murderous intentions, and if a bag of poison went down, Tang Jiaqi would return to the west, so he decided to separate the two ladies from the two mansions, and if they didn't meet, they wouldn't fight, but the eldest lady Tang Jiaqi didn't agree, she, the general only needs to take care of the outside affairs, and the affairs of the family should be decided by the eldest lady, this is a serious family, although Lin Qiao'er is stubborn and strong, it doesn't mean that I can't do anything about her, the days will be long in the future, let's see.

Tang Yuan was distressed, and Nalan Xin made a move: "Men must go out, always stay at home, but it will make the family happy, this is what the man Jia Lao Cheng told me: The more you stay at home, the more troublesome the ladies will be, only if you take the troops out, there will be nothing at home." ”

"And this law? What if I wasn't at home and the two of them killed each other? ”

"Guaranteed not to happen."

"Alright, assemble the Second Army, I'm going to Uzitown."

Wuzi Town is not very far from Jiaohe City, walked three roads, then went down to the village, looking at Wuzi Town only ten miles.

Abduhe, the general of the Yue clan who guarded Uzi, sent someone to ask Tang Yuan, what did it mean to suddenly come to the city?

Tang Yuan replied: "Negotiate to take over Uzi." ”

Abduhe was furious and led his troops to Liangying Dazhai to fight the enemy and scold the enemy.

Chen Bao went out and seriously injured Abduhe in three rounds, deliberately did not kill him, and let Abduhe return to the city to recuperate.

After Abduhe returned to the city, he was afraid in his heart, he saw that the Liang army was well-equipped and strong, if he fought hard, there would naturally be no good fruit to eat, if he wanted to fight against Tang Yuan, he must unite the four towns, so An rejected the rapid contact, and the generals of the four towns responded one after another, gathering 100,000 troops and preparing to fight with Tang Yuan.

Tang Yuan only had 30,000 men in his hands, and he was not sure of victory, so he decided to withdraw his troops and return to Jiaohe, but the army of the four towns was in vain.

They knew that there were 60,000 Liang troops in Jiaohe City now, and they did not dare to attack Jiaohe after calculating the combat strength of the Liang army, so they retreated one after another.

As soon as he retreated, Tang Yuan led people to Uzi Town again, shouting for a strong attack.

Abduhe attacked Tang Yuan Dazhai at night, but was ambushed and captured by Tang Hu.

Tang Yuan asked Abduhe, are you convinced? If you obey, I will ask for a title in front of the emperor, and from now on, you will be the general of my Great Liang Dynasty, and you will be given the title, so that your family will be a superior person for generations.

Abdul was not convinced.

Tang Yuan released Abduhe and told him to reorganize his army and fight again.

Abduhe sent people to ask for support, and the other three towns rushed to help, Tang Yuan left again, and they pounced again.

The other town generals were surprised by the two successive air strikes, but it was nothing, because they still believed that Abdul would not joke about it.

In this way, Tang Yuan tossed back and forth seven times for six consecutive months, but the generals of the four towns were confused. Messengers were sent one after another, asking Tang Yuan what do you mean? If we want to fight, we will fight with real swords, and if we dare not fight, we will not come to make trouble.

As a result, Tang Yuan detained the envoy and did not let it back.

The anger of the generals of the four towns came up, gathered twice the troops, gathered all their strength, and wanted to fight in Tang Yuan, and the 150,000 troops were handed over to Hecheng, eager to try.

Tang Yuan stood at the arrow tower of the city gate and shouted loudly: "Jiaohe City is iron-clad, you have only 150,000 people, you can't take it at all, we have at least three years' worth of food in the city, if you want to consume it with me, we have time." ”

After three months, the soldiers and horses of the four towns ran out of food and were ready to withdraw the troops, Tang Yuan covered up behind his back, and the soldiers of the four towns were defeated and fled.

Tang Yuan arranged the troops to the edge of Uzi Town, and did not fight or retreat, and Uzi was so stiff that Abdu was so angry that he vomited blood.
