Chapter 116 is a nail in the coffin

"Xia Guan thinks that twenty or thirty thousand horses are enough.? Wang Puyun said lightly, and he didn't regard the Western Expedition as a very important thing between his words.

It was this relaxed tone, but it made Li Gu and the three of them suddenly relax a lot, twenty or thirty thousand people, but it was nothing. No, Li Gu's eyes gradually narrowed, but what he was thinking about was the situation in the Western Regions, the place was chaotic, there were many tribes, they did not belong to each other, and there were many grievances, and it was not so easy to completely calm down. Wang Pu swore that if he messed up at that time, his political future would be reversed. Li Gu's mind was wandering, what is this Wang Pu's plan?

Guo Rong nodded above and said solemnly: "Regarding the matter of the Uighurs in Ganzhou, when I was in Guanzhong, Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Aiqing once reported to me. I think I can give it a try. Wang Aiqing, do you have any specific plans? ”

Of course, you can give it a try. From a historical point of view, the real strength of Western Xia did not depend on the current four states of Xia and Yinzhou, but mainly on the territory of the Ganzhou Uighurs that were conquered later. The Western Xia relied on these places to confront the Northern Song Dynasty and the Khitan for more than 100 years, and the Western Xia existed for nearly 300 years, which is enough to show the importance of Ganzhou and other places. But the Ganzhou Uighurs are now in decline.

Guo Rong didn't say much, but the meaning in his words was not hidden. You can give it a try by taking a stand first, and then ask if you have any specific plans? In the southern expedition just now, the emperor didn't ask so much. What does this mean? It shows that the emperor is not confused, and the southern expedition is just a cover. However, the emperor's face is sinking like water now, if Li Gu and they don't know what to do and jump out again to provoke thorns and oppose the Western Expedition, the emperor will be furious if he can't keep it. Again and again against His Majesty the Emperor, this... It's not like there's nothing to smoke.

"The minister just received the news yesterday that the Liangzhou Assassin Zhang Dynasty sent an envoy to Beijing, hoping that the clan would be attached, and asked His Majesty to appoint a new assassin." Wang Pu said with a smile.

"Lord Wang, is your news reliable?" Li Gu turned his head and asked, he asked yes, but his heart gradually calmed down, I got the news yesterday, then what did you say about the Southern Expedition just now, isn't this a clear trick for me?

Li Gu's eyes couldn't help but reveal an intriguing meaning, you kid climb up, I won't stop you, but you step on my body to climb up, isn't it a bit too much.

Wang Pu smiled slightly, Li Gu's meaning, he understood, Li Gu was alluding to his source being out of order, after all, he was Zaifu, and Li Gu didn't know it, but he, a Hanlin bachelor, knew it first. However, Wang Pu didn't have any intention to justify, he said directly: "The envoy arrived in Yongxing yesterday and yesterday to find Yongxing to stay behind and show his identity. ”

Guo Rong said with some surprise on it: "I really want to come to something." This should be a godsend. Zhang Chao was able to comply with the big move, attached the city, and sent a decree to reward him as the Marquis of Anliang, and rewarded him with a good house in Bianjing, and then added the title of General Jinwuzuo in front of the emperor. Hehe, he can come, which means that our Great Zhou is in the Western Regions, at least in the Ganzhou area, and it is still quite prestigious, and I hope that Suzhou and other places can also be surrendered smoothly, and I will never be stingy with the title. The more Guo Rong spoke, the happier he became, and he rewarded him again and again.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Liangzhou is a springboard. If we can properly handle the affairs of Liangzhou, it will undoubtedly play a good exemplary role for the turbulent situation in Ganzhou, and lay a solid foundation for us to recover Suzhou, Ganzhou, Guazhou, Shazhou and other places in the next step. Wang Pu said while the iron was hot.

"Your Majesty, Zhang Chao came here with righteousness, which shows that the Liangzhou area is still obedient and good, and the minister recommended Hubu Langzhong to praise Liangzhou Thorn History, this person is steady, talented and elegant, and can be a good pastor." Wang Pu stood up and recommended.

Happy praise this person is in his forties, he is a jinshi in the examination during the Gaozu period of the Later Jin Dynasty, and he has been mixed in Bianjing for more than ten years, and he naturally does not say anything about poetry and songs, but in addition, he has not established any great merits, and of course, he has not made any mistakes. To put it bluntly, Ya can get mixed into the official position of Langzhong, mainly by mixing qualifications. This guy has never been trained in a local area, and he has never served as a magistrate like a county magistrate, and he was suddenly thrown to Liangzhou to educate the people. . . Is this appropriate?

What's going on with Happy Praise, these people all know it, so what Wang Pu means by recommending Happy Praise, everyone immediately understands it as soon as they think about it. To put it bluntly, Wang Pu is still against sending troops, and he is happy to praise such a civilian official who has little ability to go to Liangzhou, and he can only think that if he settles in Liangzhou, he can only obey Bianjing's command in everything, and if he sends someone with strong ability, he may cause some trouble in Liangzhou.

Guo Rong's heart suddenly became unhappy, and he said in his heart, Wang Pu, you are too ignorant. What kind of place is that in Liangzhou, it must be a mess, if the person named Zhang Chao can hold it down, he is full of food and support, and he wants to run to Bianjing to ask for attachment. As you said, if you send such a civil official who has no ability to go to Liangzhou, wouldn't it be a loss for Liangzhou. Guo Rong snorted coldly and said, "Who is the assassin in Liangzhou, I have my own plans." As he spoke, he couldn't help but knock Wang Pu on: "In the turbulent land of Liangzhou, send a civil official, how can you not defend it, or send a general who can fight habitually to garrison." Mr. Wang, you go on. "Saying that Zhang Chaoxin admires Huaxia and that the people of Liangzhou are simple and simple, those are all scenes, do you really believe it?

"Your Majesty, the Uighurs in Ganzhou have been in civil strife for decades, and the forces of all parties have been greatly weakened, the strongest Maga Khan, the army under his command is only about 20,000 people, and it is far away in the sandbank, and the troops stationed in Suzhou and Ganzhou are only a few thousand people, it is not difficult to fight the Uighurs in Ganzhou, but it is rare that after the defeat, how to pacify and govern?" Wang Pu talked eloquently.

"However, in case the Chu State and the Khitan send troops to intervene, what will we do?" Wang Pu couldn't help but ask, he didn't have any bad intentions, but this ruling idea was different from Wang Pu, he wanted to fight first and then fight, and Wang Pu obviously wanted to fight while showing.

Li Gu, who had been silent for a long time, couldn't help but shake his head, stood up and said: "Wang Xiang, if we send troops next spring, the Chu State has just suffered losses, and we are in the Huaibei area, they will definitely not send troops, as for the Khitan, the Khitan emperor is fond of drinking, and he doesn't have much ambition in his heart, should we send someone to the Khitan to negotiate peace." Taking a step back, even if the Khitan negotiates peace with us, he wants to go south, and our Great Zhou will not lack 30,000 horses for the westward expedition. It's always good to give it a try. ”

Li Gu's words, 2 to 2 suddenly turned into 3 to 1, this is not counting the veto in Guo Rong's hands. The Western Expedition is basically a certainty, and the rest is a matter of details.
