"What's going on? Why is the Tang Army suddenly moving again? ”

Wei Chi, who had just arrived in Liangzhou, saw that Liangzhou City was lively, a large number of troops were gathering, there were many carriages loading grain and grass in the city, and many tribal warriors also appeared outside Liangzhou City.

These tribal warriors naturally did not come to attack Liangzhou City, now the Tang Dynasty's control in Hexi is very firm, the previous disobedient Ganzhou Uighurs and Liugu tribes have been wiped out, and the rest of the tribes have been scattered and scattered in various states of Anxi Dadu Protectorate.

Therefore, there are no big tribes in Hexi, and the tribes with more than 10,000 people are pitiful, so they naturally dare not rebel against these.

"I guess it's the Tang Army that has a big military operation." The entourage was also puzzled, and could only guess casually.

"Big military operation? Where is the war going on again? Wei Chi was a little puzzled.

However, the officials of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, who soon came to greet Wei Chi and his party, explained his confusion, and it turned out that he was going to start a war with the Western Uighurs again.

It turned out that the information that the Western Uighurs were preparing to counterattack had recently been heard by the Jinyi guards, and that the Western Uighurs were still mobilizing troops on a large scale.

The Uighurs of Western China want to fight back, and the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate will naturally not sit idly by.

Since the Uighurs of Western China wanted to fight, Liu Kui decided to fight them.

So Liu Kui ordered the transfer of 10,000 tribal cavalry from Liangzhou, Lanzhou, Ganzhou, Taozhou and other places.

He also dispatched 5,000 cavalry from the Youshence Army, a total of 15,000 cavalry to Shazhou.

In addition, he also ordered the Shazhou Governor's Mansion and the Gansu Governor's Mansion to transfer 15,000 infantry.

The reason why the infantry was also transferred, Liu Kui naturally wanted to take Yizhou City in one fell swoop.

Hearing that the Tang Dynasty was about to start a war with the Xizhou Uighurs again, Wei Chi was also a little anxious, and it seemed that he had to speed up his arrival in Chang'an, and then negotiate things as soon as possible.

Such a big war, they Khotan must not be able to watch, if they want to be trusted, they must have a name, right?

。。。。。。

"Wang Jian, the governor of the southern capital of Zhenzhen, has seen Chief Cui!"

"The last general, the governor of the Jianchang Governor's Mansion, Yue Changxu, has seen Chief Cui!"

"Duan Baolong, the governor of the Sichuan Governor's Mansion, has seen Governor Cui."

Jianchang Governor's Mansion, Wangzhou.

As Cui Anqian led tens of thousands of troops to arrive in Wangzhou, all the generals of the Zhennan Governor's Mansion gathered here, including Duan Baolong and his main generals.

Cui Anqian arrived with an army of 30,000 on behalf of the imperial court, and Duan Baolong did not dare to be unaware of it at this time.

He doesn't have to worry about what will happen to him when he comes to Wangzhou, he is familiar with the various roads and defenses of Nanzhao, and he still has some old stories in the Nanzhao army, which can help a lot in this operation.

That's why he boldly came to Wangzhou.

"Generals, please get up, everyone will fight together in the coming period, so don't be too polite."

Looking at the few people in front of him, Cui An was actually thinking about how to control these people.

Suffice it to say, these three people are not of the same mind.

Wang Jian was loyal to the eight generals in his early years, and later returned to the saint of King Shou, and he has been in Hexi later, which can be regarded as a military achievement, and his daughter is still a concubine in the holy harem, and now he is the governor of the Zhennan Governor's Mansion.

He also couldn't understand why the Holy Lord didn't let the other party command this battle, but let him come. 117

Strictly speaking, Yue Changxu is still his old subordinate, Yue Changxu was born as a local general in Xichuan, and switched to Shengshang when the Shengshang pacified Xichuan Chen Jingxuan. The reason why this person is still his old subordinate is because Cui Anqian used to serve as the envoy of the Xichuan Festival, although the time was very short.

As for Duan Baolong, Cui Anqian only knew that the other party was a Nanzhao general, and he was still a little unreliable.

He didn't know much about Duan Baolong, and the reason why he was unreliable was the information given to him by Jinyiwei, saying that Duan Baolong was not a small person, and that kind of person seemed to be related to Emperor Shun Huazhen of Nanzhao.

Jin Yiwei's intelligence will definitely not be faked, at least it is more likely to be true.

If this was the case, he was a little suspicious of what this Duan Baolong wanted to do.

Is it to be a grass on the wall, or is it in Cao Ying's heart in Han?

"Mr. Cui has traveled a long way and traveled all the way, do you need to rest for a night and talk about military affairs tomorrow?

Even if it's important to get down to business, there's no rush for a while. Wang Jian said with a smile.

Wang Jian seems to be kind, but he is fighting for the initiative, and obviously he is not very satisfied with Cui Anqian's arrival.

It's just that he doesn't know why the Holy Lord sent Cui An to sneak in, he has been in charge of the Zhennan Governor's Mansion for almost a year, and he already has a certain degree of understanding of the situation in Nanzhao.

Isn't this position of the head of Pingnan more suitable?

Cui An also sensed Wang Jian's intentions in his heart, and said with a faint smile, "Wang Dudu's kindness was understood. However, the saint attached great importance to the matter of Pingnan, and when the envoy had not yet arrived in Zhennan, there was a holy decree from Chang'an.

Before that, the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate defeated 40,000 Uighur cavalry in the Zhongyun Division, and the front of the army was directed at Yizhou.

This is a reminder to us that the envoy naturally does not dare to slack off.

Now that the three governors have arrived, they must have counted your respective situations as well. After tonight's dinner, please make a brief report to the envoy on the number of your respective troops, the list of generals, and the preparation of food and grass. ”

Cui Anqian is also rebelling against Wang Jian.

Wang Jian was originally the governor of the Zhennan Governor's Mansion, and the Jianchang Governor's Mansion and the Huichuan Governor's Mansion were both under the management of Wang Jian, but Cui Anqian asked the three governors to report separately, and the meaning was self-evident.

Just when Wang Jian's face was a little ugly, Yue Changxu took the lead in nodding in agreement.

"Please rest assured."

"The last general obeys!"

Immediately after Yue Changxu, Duan Baolong also echoed, which made Wang Jian's face even more ugly.

"Since there is no problem, let's go to the banquet together, and we can't live up to the kindness of the royal governor." Seeing that his prestige was beginning to stand, Cui Anqian was also a little satisfied in his heart.

But Wang Jian was very angry in his heart, but it was not easy to have a seizure at the banquet.

。。。。。。

"Father-in-law, what do you mean by this Cui Anqian, Yue Changxu, and that Baolong? Is this an attempt to overthrow the father-in-law? ”

As soon as he returned to the house, Wang Zongji, who claimed to be Wang Jian's heir, began to fight for Wang Jian.

Seeing Wang Jian's gloomy face, he was even more energetic, and wanted to gain Wang Jian's trust by sprinkling salt on Wang Jian's wounds.

Tian Shikan (that is, the original Wang Zongkan), who changed back to his real name on the side, said in a deep voice, "Father-in-law, Mr. Cui's move is obviously to burn the first fire on his father-in-law, and his father-in-law should have made a decision as soon as possible." ”

"What he thinks is too simple, do you really think that Pontus is a soft persimmon?" Wang Jian said coldly.

"What is the stepfather going to do? Cui Anqian is the envoy appointed by the Holy Decree and the general manager of Pingnan, and we are all controlled by him. Seeing that Tian Shikan was stealing his limelight, Wang Zongji immediately grabbed the topic.
