3. Evil Camp

"Of course." Qingping official Guiguo hurriedly responded to the worship dance.

Next, Gao Yue said to Gui Guo: "Before I went out with the king of Hechuan County, my friend Zheng Qi asked me, saying that he had an uncle and grandfather called Zheng Hui, who was originally a county commander in Xilu, but fell into the hands of you and others twenty years ago, and in order to show sincerity, he can be sent back." ”

But Guiguo disagreed, and frankly admitted, "Zheng Huixian is also a Qingping official of my country, and he is also the commander of the country. Moreover, Zheng Hui also strongly opposed the dispatch of troops this time, so wouldn't it be better to keep him in our country than to send him back to Datang and then serve as a county commander? ”

At this time, Gao Yue looked at Li Sheng, and the other party seemed to agree with Guiguo's analysis, and let Zheng Hui stay in Yunnan, which should be able to be used in the future.

After the two sides negotiated, Gui Guo said goodbye and left, and Li Sheng respectfully accepted a cup of tea from Gao Yue in the pavilion, "Gao Shiyu, this battle Sheng is a lucky success, and you are indispensable." ”

Gao Yue thought for a while, sighed and said: "The reason why Wang Yimu Xun of Yunnan has collapsed for thousands of miles this time is because he has just ascended the throne, and many other departments in the country are not convinced, and they have no intention of attacking Li and Ya Erzhou; Most of the Western Tibetan troops who resisted along the way were insignificant Qianghu servants, probably because the Western Tibetan Zanpu hoped to seek peace by war. ”

Hearing this pertinent evaluation, Li Sheng also nodded, "What Gao Shiyu said is right, before we set out on the expedition, the Holy Lord had given each of the Xifan prisoners a shirt, sent them home, and sent Taichang Wei Shaoqing (Lun) to negotiate peace. After that, the Northwest Military Town was afraid that it would eliminate the war and open up the tuntian. ”

"It's okay to prepare for war." Gao Yue secretly wondered.

At this time, Zhang Yan, the envoy of the Xishan Army, Han Tan, and Wang Shengluan, the general of the Deer Head and the Tooth, suddenly walked in, and then Du Luo worshiped in front of Li Sheng.

"Guys, why is that?" Li Sheng was shocked and hurriedly picked up these Xichuan generals.

Gao Yue sat behind Li Sheng and glanced at Han Tan, who was the most eloquent among them...... This is exactly what he had pre-arranged, and he had previously sent it to Sichuan in the form of a secret letter to let Cui Ning know.

"I'm willing to go to the west camp of the Shence Jingxi!" Zhang Yan, Han Tan and Wang Shengluan pleaded in unison.

This?

Complicated emotions surged in Li Sheng's heart.

He can understand the mood of this group of Xichuan generals - the Shence Army was originally only a local military-level unit, with no more than a thousand people, and then because of the merit of escorting, the emperor was promoted to the Beiya Forbidden Army. Now that Li Shi has just succeeded to the throne, he has only taken over the Shence Army from Wang Jiahe, and the new military envoy Bai Xiuqi has spared no effort to expand the land and expand the army.

The expansion of the land is to add the so-called "Shence Xingying Military Town", the Shence Army said, I also want to go to the northwest to prevent autumn, every time the Xifan invasion can not always assemble from the capital, so delay the military aircraft, so when Li Yu was still alive, the Shence Army began to engage in land in the northwest, not only the good town in the west of Gyeonggi, but also the Purun and Linyou with Fengxiang, were all set up as the Shence Military Town, and there were Shence Xing Battalion soldiers stationed here, drilled, and garrisoned on weekdays. Naturally, the income of Tuntian is also owned by the Shence Army. The purpose of this is that the emperor wants to use the Shence military town to "mix sand" and "occupy territory" in the major border towns in the northwest, after all, Shence is the emperor's private army, which is the treatment of his own daughter.

The expansion of the army is very easy to understand, expand the number of troops of the Shence Army, recruit more to be able to fight, and the other is like now, the teams of other border towns request the "Yaoli Shence Camp", if it succeeds, it can change the skin, from the "border army" that grandma does not love and uncle does not love to be upgraded to the "Shence Army" that is loved by thousands of people, and the soldiers are "tricky" on the Shence army, why do you want this? Of course, it is because of the high salary and high salary of the Shence Army, and it can also be tax-free, which is what later generations called "eating the army".

Therefore, Li Sheng is of course understandable for the Xichuan army general to make such a request, and if he reports it, the military envoy Bai Xiuqi will naturally agree.

But isn't this tantamount to offending the newly appointed Xichuan Jiedu envoy Zhang Yanxian?

Which knot will the army that likes to belong to him be intercepted?

Li Shengzheng was hesitant, Gao Yue coughed his throat, and was angry at Han Tan and the others who were kneeling down: "Xishan is a critical place to garrison Xifan, and the imperial court has always set up soldiers and horses here, and defense envoys. After that, if other military towns in the northwest and Jiannan knew that they were all vying to enter the gods, wouldn't it make Tianyan angry? This is simply contrary to the will of the Divine Will, but retreat! ”

"No, Gao Shiyu, in fact, what they do is completely in line with the Holy Will, Your Majesty can't wait to eat all Fang Zhen." Li Sheng corrected in his heart, but he couldn't say it clearly, and at the same time, he vaguely knew that Gao Yue's move was "retreating as advance" - sure enough, after listening to Gao Shiyu's angry reprimand, this group of Xichuan generals was even more reluctant to leave, kowtowing and begging.

In the end, Li Sheng could only admit and say: "There are 5,000 elite soldiers in Xishan, which is really the foundation of Shudu, and you can't take the liberty of changing your position to the Shence camp, but although the Lutoushu place in Hanzhou is small, the location is very important, and the 500 soldiers can be changed to the Shence camp first." ”

At this time, Wang Shengluan, the deer-headed and tooth-fighting general, was overjoyed and hurriedly expressed his gratitude to Li Sheng.

In the city of Shudu, Zhang Yanxian, who had just taken office, opened his eyes angrily, "Li Liangqi (Li Shengzi Liangqi), a military man, was expelled from Fang Town by Ma Luan, the king of Fufeng County, because of his meritorious deeds, and then he took refuge in the Shence Army. I didn't expect that now the old trick is repeated, and I came to Xichuan to dig the root of the wall, and the deer head is at the gateway of Hanzhou, and the danger of the East and West Sichuan is strangled, how did it become a Shence military town? It's really too deceitful! ”

When Zhang Yansheng was angry, Li Sheng took the Shence Xing camp and the Xishan army into the pass of Qipan Mountain, followed the flow of the Dujiangyan Shuangjiang, played a triumphant song, carried the captured heads, and captured enemy soldiers, and came to the capital of Shu.

Qipan Mountain is also known as Silkworm Cliff Pass, is known as the southwest of Huayi's place, Wenshui (Minjiang) is completely sinister in the west of the pass, there are Qianghu who shepherd cattle and sheep everywhere, and after here, Wenshui is the Dujiangyan built by Li Bing and his son to tame it obediently, Qingcheng Mountain is a thousand peaks to show, ten thousand ravines and cuiyan, and then the field is fertile, mulberry hemp and bamboo fields, twenty-four miles of households, endless, it is really the country of abundance: no wonder my father-in-law occupies Xichuan, and he never wants to go back to Chang'an City.

Dujiangyan will Wenshui guide to Shuangliu, a pass through the west of Shudu, a pass through the south of Shudu, be called the inner and outer rivers by the people of Shudu, there are seven bridges on the river surface, should be the shape of the seven stars in the world, and according to the custom, the army must go to the city bridge located in the center to be safe.

"Yi Song, this is the city of Shudu after the city bridge. And if you continue to go there, you can enter Shuzhou, which had a name when it was still a county in the previous generation. On horseback, Li Sheng was rarely very interested, pointed everywhere with a horsewhip, and even explained to Gao Yue the allusions around the Shu Capital City.

"Dare to ask the king of Hechuan County, what was the name of the county before Shuzhou?" Gao Yue asked a little stupidly.
