Gao Yue and Yan Yuese, said to Su Yu that there is no need to be careful, the imperial court is just a routine project to protect Gyeonggi and the mausoleum, "As for that ballad, I have also heard of it, but what Your Majesty is building for this is the Changchun Palace in Jingdong." ”

Changchun Palace is a fortress connecting Gyeonggi and the river, and it is also the largest "official village" owned by the emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Then Gao Yue asked Su Yu to accompany him to Haoqi to meet his master.

It is fifty miles west of Fengtian City, and adjacent to Fengxiang Mansion, where the Shence Army has a large number of tuntian, and also set up a military town.

Although this place is not far from Fengtian, it can be separated by the steep Liangshan Mountain, and a river called Wuting River, the Qianling Tomb located on Liangshan Mountain, is surrounded by lush cypress bushes, and after passing through the narrow path between the mountains and rivers, Gao Yue and Su Yu arrived at the Qiting Pavilion of Haoqi.

There, Zhu Jun, Wei Gao, and Li Chulin, who were in casual clothes, had been waiting for a while.

Their meeting had to be secret, because there were so many people and things involved.

However, once they met, Gao Yue sat in front of Zhu Jun, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he mercilessly criticized Taiwei's suspiciousness:

"Why should the captain be deceived by the villain, and not understand the servant's sincerity to you. In the past two years, Yuanzhou has been camping for Jingyuan, supplying nearly 200,000 stones of rice and grain, and setting up several horse workshops, more than 1,000 war horses, and thousands of soldiers, all of which are great undertakings created by Yue and Taiwei and Chengwu and others. Now that Taiwei has been framed by others, and he doesn't want to join forces to deal with outsiders, how can he abandon the great cause of Jingyuan and Fengxiang and collapse himself? Stealing for the captain does not take. ”

Zhu Jun was embarrassed by this, and he hurriedly said Yi Song, you misunderstood, it was some Jing Yuan and Fan Yang generals who didn't know how to lift up, short-sighted, they were all a group of coarse and stupid martial artists, I have already scolded them fiercely, and I ask Yi Song not to mind.

"Then why did the Taiwei want to let Tian Xijian interfere in the affairs of Yingtian in Liangyuan City? I heard that the Taiwei wanted to collect the 800 Fan Yang soldiers from Tuntian in the old county of Lingtai to Fengxiang, which was absolutely impossible! ”

Gao Yue's cannons made Zhu Zhu's forehead sweat.

In front of this meeting, Zhu Jun already knew about his younger brother Zhu Tao's rebellion in Youzhou, and heard that Ma Sui had secretly impeached himself, and he couldn't help but be terrified, he knew that the emperor would definitely investigate himself, and in despair, he actually wanted to gather all the armor soldiers brought from Fan Yang in Fengxiang Mansion in the past, and was ready to resist stubbornly as a last resort.

"Fengxiang is surrounded by Huangshan and Qishan, the land is dangerous and fertile, and there is Chengguo Canal and Water Conservancy as a great cause, once you have this place, you will occupy the two Shence military towns of Purun and Linyou (these two town soldiers have rushed to Gyeonggi to standby), and the emperor does not dare to do anything to me!"

It's better to let the false rebellion become the real rebellion.

In this context, Zhu Jun secretly operated, wanting to harvest back the 800 Fan Yang soldiers that Gao Yue used to go to Tuntian.

In fact, at this time, Gao Yue's heart was also very nervous, he realized that if Zhu Zhu was forced to a dead end now, he really rebelled in Fengxiang on the spot, then Fengxiang, Jingyuan and even Suining and other important places in the northwest would be completely destroyed, and the situation would get worse - what would the Tang Dynasty use as a base in the future to fight against Xifan and recover Helong? It's not just a matter of your own efforts.

So next, Gao Yue pretended to be very resentful, gritted his teeth and said to Zhu Jun: "Has Taiwei forgotten the agreement with Gao Yue and Chengwu in the back building in the past!" It's definitely not the Captain's objection now, is it? ”

Zhu Jun immediately burst into tears and grabbed Gao Yue's hands, "Believe me, Yisong, I have absolutely no objection!" It was my brother Zhu Tao who deliberately wrote the letter, and then Ma Sui played it in private, putting me in such a situation, I was really burned inside, but I had nowhere to argue. ”

Gao Yue said to Zhu Jun very sincerely: "Don't worry, Taiwei, the capital has all arranged for Taiwei, as long as Taiwei is willing to enter the imperial court and guest province, and plead clearly to the Holy Lord, this Fengxiang and Longyou's festival will still be Taiwei yours immediately!" ”

Then Gao Yue came over and taught Zhu Zhu the tricks to counteract, and claimed that there was still Lu Menlang as an Austrian aid in the court, so you should put a hundred hearts.

Hearing this, Zhu Jun burst into tears and laughed, and finally made up his mind to enter Beijing to plead, and then Zhu Jun immediately bowed down to Gao Yue and Wei Gao, saying that he would immediately be wronged and would not dare to forget the kindness of the two.

In addition, Zhu Jun also said to his confidant Li Chulin: "Yi Song and Cheng Wu must not be questioned about all their actions in the future, and if there is anything, Yi Song and Cheng Wu must be informed in advance." ”

At the beginning of March, Zhu Zhu took a number of horsemen, light and simple, to show his sincerity, did not bring any armor, calmly went to the direction of the capital, and Fengxiang Mansion entrusted the marching Sima Li Chulin to stay behind.

"Zhu Jun went this time and won't come back." At the flag pavilion of the grass wall of Baili City, Gao Yue, who originally pretended to return to Fengtian Camp City, actually didn't leave at all, and met with Wei Gao, who was also secret, and said such a prediction.

"What does Yi Song mean that the wise Holy Lord will not let go of such an opportunity?" Wei Gao seemed to fully understand Gao Yue's thoughts.

Gao Yue smiled bitterly, he really didn't know whether Li Shi's behavior was stupid or smart - he stood on the chessboard, picked up his hand, and said to Wei Gao: "Chengwu, according to you, what is Zhu Zhu's strength?" ”

"Zhu Zhu is actually very weak......"

Wei Gao's judgment is, of course, justified.

Before guarding Fengxiang was Li Baoyu, the basic plate of Li Baoyu's army, is the son of Hexi and Zelu, the former because Li Baoyu is a descendant of "martial arts hero An Xinggui", living in Hexi for generations; The latter was because Li Baoyu was the envoy of Zelu Festival before going to Fengxiang.

After Li Baoyu died in the twelfth year of the Great Calendar, Zhu Zhu, a general of the Hebei Department, came to Fengxiang, and the earliest title was "Quanzhi Hexi, Zelu Xing Battalion Soldiers and Horses", but it was immediately revoked, why? Because of this group of Hexi and Zelu veterans left by Li Baoyu, they were returned to Li Baoyu's heir, that is, his cousin Li Baozhen.

From this point of view, the relationship between Zhu Jun, Li Baoyu and Li Baozhen is indeed very good.

In addition, yes, I, Tang, am so capricious, the army and the general's private property, and they can inherit each other, which is still recognized by the imperial court.

Therefore, Zhu Jun's team in Fengxiang's armed forces also lies in the Youzhou Fan Yang soldiers he brought.

So how many Fan Yang soldiers are in this batch?

"When Zhu Zhu first entered the court, he brought three thousand soldiers, and then through Cai Tingyu, in the name of Fang Qiu, he brought seven or eight thousand ...... one after another" Wei Gao also picked up a chess piece and lined up next to Gao Yue, he had already figured out the bottom of Fengxiang's army clearly, "And the quota of Fengxiang's army is 30,000, and the other 20,000 are basically Fengxiang and Longzhou's local children." ”

"That's right, that's why Zhu Jun took the opportunity of pacifying Liu Wenxi earlier to try to win over the 30,000 children of the Jingyuan camp for his own use." Gao Yue said softly, "That's exactly what happened, his attitude towards the division of the barracks between the two of us is contradictory, on the one hand, he hopes that the two of us can assist him, who is alone, and on the other hand, he is afraid that the power of the two of us is too great to control, and he will swallow the team that he originally coveted. ”

Then he fell into the third place, and said frankly: "Then we will wait to take advantage of the opportunity of Zhu Jun's entry into the court and no return, and try our best to bring together Fengxiang and Jingyuan's teams for my use." ”
