The galloping red horsemane seemed to have been washed by water, and the knight, covered in dirt and ash, carried a flag behind him, almost knocked out a path on the sparkling street and rushed in the direction of the palace in the distance.

Li Ling was almost knocked down, and scolded: "What does this grandson want to do, Xuanfu must have been fucking defeated again." ”

Su Lu looked at the knights who were far away, and was a little worried for no reason, did the Xuanfu have another fiasco?

Now that spring is in full bloom and the weather in the Northland is not so cold, it is possible that Thule will attack again.

The forbidden army was rubbed by a lot of horses, and they were scolded, but they all knew that it was an eight-hundred-mile rush, and they only shouted a few words in the back.

Su Lu saw that the raid on Gaofu was basically over, and took the lead in returning to the Dingxiang Army Yamen.

In order to help Li Qing Liwei, he cleaned up the Gao Yang of the Hanlin Academy today, and tomorrow will be the court judgment, and the court judgment has always been the vanguard against Li Qing, if he is not cleaned up, Li Qing will still be in a lot of trouble in prison.

"Report, my lord, the military department is urgently recruiting, please go to the military council."

A forbidden soldier came in and reported it.

Su Lu put down the file, went out of the courtyard, and saw Li Qing riding on a white horse at the entrance of the yamen.

Since he was in charge of the country, Li Qing has changed his attire, the purple general's robe has been replaced by the prince's python robe, and his long hair has been tied with a golden hairpin, which is quite heroic.

"Get on the horse, the Xuanfu is urgent, I'm afraid that He Gong and Lin Tong will be defeated again."

Li Qing greeted Su Lu and said, her tone was full of boredom and exhaustion, she was busy with state affairs, she took over as soon as she took over, and she was really a little too busy.

The mud led the horse over, Su Lu turned over and got on the horse, and walked side by side with Li Qing. In front of the two of them, there was a team of forbidden troops who opened the way, and behind them, followed by more than a dozen guards from Changning, protecting the two of them.

Mud wanted to get closer to Su Lu, but was pushed aside by Su Ge.

Li Qing's eyebrows were full of exhaustion, and only when he turned his head to look at Su Lu would a smile appear on his cheeks.

"What's going on with the Dingxiang Army Yamen? If you need money, you can tell me directly, and I will allocate it to you from the inner library. ”

Li Qing said with a smile, she was a little unaccustomed to the dull Su Lu in front of her.

Su Lu smiled: "Don't worry, just a Dingxiang army yamen, if you are only in the capital, I can still do it." ”

"By the way, Xie Ruyu came to me again a few days ago, saying that he was waiting for the position of General of Tang Guoxu and wanted me to defect to Tang State, and also said that if I am willing to go to Tang State, I can cut the land south of Jiangzhou to Han State."

Li Qing's breathing suddenly became heavy, and his voice was surprised: "How is it possible!" ”

"Yesterday, Xie Ruyu begged to see me, and also asked my country to cede the land of the two counties of Xiting, otherwise he would have to set up troops to take it, saying that if my country refuses to cede again, it will be the culprit of the sword soldiers."

Su Lu thought about the situation of the two counties in Xiting, bordering Jiangzhou, but the west was Qin, the east and south were surrounded by Tang, and it was mountainous, not suitable for the deployment of a large army, it was completely a place of chicken ribs, how could Tang State be more energetic in this place.

"Tang Guo also put forward a policy, if my country really does not agree to hand you over, and is not willing to cede the land, you can also exchange, Tang State is willing to exchange my Tang State and Dongqi border Dong'e land."

Su Lu nodded: "If the Tang State is really willing, it can be exchanged, the two counties of Xiting are too far ahead, which is not conducive to the defense of our country, it is for chicken ribs, Dong'e is the front of the Eastern Qi that goes deep into the hinterland of our country, if the Tang State can take it, the exchange will not be a problem." ”

Li Qing glared at Su Lu.

Su Lu was a little stunned, I'm telling you the truth, whether in terms of defense or offense, Dong'e is much stronger than the two counties required by the Tang Kingdom.

The two had already arrived at the entrance of the military department, and they were meeting Su Lu's old acquaintance, Mingwei General Guo Zhun.

Li Qing turned over and dismounted, glared at Su Lu, and pedaled into the military headquarters.

Guo Zhun saluted Li Qing, but he didn't think that Li Qing would ignore him completely, he made a big red face and asked Su Lu who came in behind.

"Master Su, why did you provoke the princess, I think she is very angry now."

Su Lu repeated what he had just said.

Guo Zhun slapped his thigh, "Master Hou, you're wrong, you just considered it from defense and offense, not from a political sense." ”

Su Lu was a little puzzled, could it be that those two counties still have any political significance, and the ancestors of the old Li family were buried there when they opened up the territory?

Guo Zhun continued: "I've heard about this, do you know that the Tang Kingdom has redivided the state capital this year? ”

"The place adjacent to the two counties of Xiting was divided into a state by the Tang Emperor, including our two counties, and the name of the state capital is Shangshan."

Guo Zhun said triumphantly: "It's the poem you wrote, brother, Shang Shan's early journey." ”

Su Lu looked at Guo Zhun triumphantly into the military department, and there was only one thought in his heart: in the past, I only heard that Tang people loved poetry, but I didn't expect to love it to such an extent.

Su Lu followed Guo Zhun into the office room, sat down in his seat, and was about to close his eyes to recuperate, when Zhou Shilang's hoarse voice sounded.

"Everyone, since we're all here, let's get started."

"Xuanfu urgent report, Beiyang Xingying was defeated, Lintao Tunbao battle, Xingying was defeated, countless losses, Xingying retreated three hundred miles, and now the Xuanfu front has advanced to the front line of Beiyang Yanzhou."

"What strategy should be in Xuanfu in the future, let's discuss it."

Zhou Shilang said in a heavy tone.

"Bang"

He Yan, the governor of the Dingbei Army, slapped his face on the table, and scolded with a blue face: "Bastard, what a bastard!" ”

"He is a bastard, Lin Tong is even more bastard!"

"Governor Dadu, give an order, let these two bastards who have lost their soldiers go to prison and punish their nine clans."

Pang De, who was sitting next to Li Shangshu, patted the table and glared at He Yan in annoyance.

"Put your Luo Quan'er fart, who will you show it, if everyone doesn't know where you are in the Nine Clans, sit down."

He Yan sat down, but the apprehension in his heart had gone, with the words of Old Pound, He Gong's little life was saved, and the princess of the prison country has never been heavy, as long as Su Lu's killing star is not spoken, it should be fine.

Pound opened his mouth, and did not stop again, turning to Su Lu and saying.

"In the first few military discussions, Hou Ye disagreed with Lin Tong's northward strategy, originally everyone thought that Hou Ye was timid and fearful, but now I know that Hou Ye has a far-sighted vision."

Pound praised Su Lu first.

Su Lu hurriedly waved his hand, smiled and scolded: "Lao Pang, you can't do this, from the Governor of the Forbidden Army to the position of the left attendant of the Ministry of War, your ass will be completely crooked, and everything can't be towards the Ministry of War." ”

Pang De and Li Shangshu glanced at each other, and Li Shangshu reluctantly spoke: "That's the case, Master Su, the envoy of He Gong Jie came with the newspaper, and there was a handwritten letter asking you to be transferred to the deputy head of the Beiyang camp, and concurrently serve as the transfer envoy of the camp." ”

"Responsible for the grain and grass transfer of the Xuanfu Army."

A room full of veterans and military department directors all focused their eyes on Su Lu.

Li Qing slapped the table in annoyance: "Li Shangshu, what do you mean by this, let me go to a first-class military marquis, General Mingwei of the fourth grade, to transport grain and grass?" ”

There was a sudden silence in the office room.

The generals didn't know what to say, and let Su Lu transport grain, I'm afraid only He Gong and Lin Tong dared to say that.

The two of them didn't know Su Lu's title, and they thought that Su Lu was a general from Wupin who came to Beijing from Beiyang, and he was a fake governor when he became the governor.

It's a pity that now people are first-class military marquis, from the fourth rank general, no, it should soon be the general of the fourth grade, after the princess supervises the country safely, the first general to be rewarded will be Su Lu.

"Wow"

The door of the office room was pushed open, the noise sounded, and a guard probed his brain and struggled inside, but was helplessly dragged by the forbidden army under martial law and could not break in.

"Governor Sudu, Governor, please go back to Xuanfu to transport grain, Xuanfu needs you to transport grain."

"We Beiyang, we can't do without you."
