Gao Yue said unhurriedly: "The minister is about to resign, and he will go to Xingyuan Mansion to bring in the remaining 20,000 soldiers for His Majesty and work together to fight the thieves." These 20,000 soldiers are not within the borders of our Tang Kingdom, but are all among the mountains and rivers of Helong. ”

"Qing is saying, Helongshan Shan Zhai?"

"However, the native population of Xibo is not much, and now Shatuo and Tuyuhun have taken refuge in our Tang Dynasty, and their military strength in the east and north roads is maintained, most of which rely on the so-called Tang people who have lost the material set to obtain, and now the Tang people of Helong have risen up to resist under the instigation of the righteous people, and the self-protection people who escaped from the mountains are endless, and they set up a fence to defend themselves, and hold a bow and knife to defend the enemy, which is a mountain and water village. Mountains and rivers of the village, by the mountains and rivers of the walled city, outside the mountain can be based on the danger of the enemy, the mountain can be tuntian self-sustaining, Xifan is good at iron cavalry combat, but the attack on the cottage is not its strength, the clearance is unfavorable, the material is a big loss, and the combat power is frequently lost. Previously, the Tibetan people repeatedly sent people to lure them in many ways, but they were all hunted and killed in the village, which shows that the Shanshui Village is really a battle of righteousness, resisting the thieves, and having the loyalty of the lover. ”

"There are as many as 20,000 people in that Shanshui Village?"

Gao Yue stood on the steps and replied: "Chen Yue once sent a small number of generals, archers, with Shanzhou people Hao Yu to lead to Chengzhou Qiuchi cottage, to protect the head of the Quartet, now there are 5,000 men and women, if the thief comes, then the whole village fights to protect itself, if on weekdays, and take the strongest person with three dings, called the 'volunteer soldiers', get 800 numbers, teach and review in the agricultural gaps, practice boxing bravery, practice courage, practice bows and crossbows, practice long lance, from October to the first month, give money 60 every day, corn two liters five, so that the Qiuchi Mountain Cottage is famous, and the soldiers are longThe bandits did not dare to approach. Now Cheng, Qin and Qinzhou, I Tang Dynasty heroes and righteous people, imitating Qiu Chi Mountain to set up villages everywhere, the number of exams has been 17, the big one is five or six thousand, the small one is two or three thousand, there are always 50,000 men and women 50,000 or 60,000, can spy on the enemy, can assist in defending the city, can assist in the defense of the army, can disrupt the enemy's territory, all can be the pioneer of His Majesty's recovery of Helong! ”

"Good, I want to be kind to Shanshui Village!" Hearing this, the emperor was also very excited.

The so-called Tui'en is to take Gao Yue as the "Longyou Xuanfu Envoy", with the edict of the Emperor Tang Dynasty and a large number of civil and military officials, everywhere to contact the landscape village, the leader of the righteous army in it is awarded an official position, and the benevolence is given, "Zhuzhai has made meritorious achievements, the upper one is promoted to the state position, the middle one is awarded the county position, and the lower one is also promoted by the official." ”

I used to write a confession for more than a million yuan, and now I can change the allegiance of the Seventeenth Mountain Zhai in Longyou, so I like it the most.

Then the emperor personally assured Gao Yue that Qing sent troops to Helong this time, and I promised: "The text is not secret, the power is not divided, and the military and financial resources are free." "In short, the two million 150,000 yuan divided from the accounting books of the army (the rest will be used by Wei Gao and Liu Haibin), not including the part that I will pay from the inner treasury immediately, these are all yours, I don't need any officials or lieutenant envoys to supervise and hinder me, and the timing of the battle disposal is in your hands.

I want to recreate this river and mountain with Gao Yue, as well as Lu Jiu, Wei Gao, Jia Tan, Du Huangshang, etc.!

Before leaving, in the pavilion of Tonghua Fang, Gao Yue's father-in-law Cui Ning was the east, and invited Li Sheng, Yan Zhenqing, Duan Xiushi, and Liu Yan.

After tonight, Gao Yue will rush to Xingyuan Mansion to prepare for the war against Longyou, while Cui Ning, Duan Xiushi and Li Sheng will each return to their own mansions to continue to live idle, Liu Yan will go back to Huazhou to continue to retire, and Yan Zhenqing will go the farthest, he will go to the Grange in Luoyang, the eastern capital.

Therefore, the scale and movement of the feast are not large, but the banquet is once the strongest pillar of this empire.

Duan Xiushi and Liu Yan were both rare to drink, and they were quite drunk, and looking at Gao Yue made them feel very satisfied.

Both of them regarded themselves as Gao Yue's teachers, how could they not be happy to see their children so promising?

In addition to being gratified, Li Sheng is more envious.

How much he himself wants to master the army, cross Longshan, and establish the best feats in the Jin Ge Iron Horse, and fight back to his hometown, what a great honor it is! But this wish, now I am afraid that it can only be entrusted to his son Li Xian.

So Li Sheng was also drunk that night.

"If Ji Ming is still alive, he should be as good as Yi Song, and he can bear the rise and fall of this country with his shoulders......" Among the several old men, Yan Zhenqing, who is the oldest, has the most robust body and the largest amount of alcohol, at this time, he is leaning on the rope bed with his back, holding a wine cup, wearing a blue and white half-arm shirt, silver hair and red face, everyone else is already in a hurry, looking at Gao Yue who is toasting opposite, and said these words leisurely.

The wind surged slightly in the early summer night, and under the candle fire in the palace, Guo Forging stood at the foot of the steps and reported to the emperor the movements of Du Tingyi, saying that Gao Yue, Cui Ning, Liu Yan, Yan Zhenqing, Duan Xiushi, Li Sheng, these ministers would drink at the same time, and whether they wanted to let the children of the city patrol prison disguise themselves to investigate.

"It's just that the old man encourages the younger generations, and it doesn't matter." The emperor didn't take it seriously.

In the main hall of Dutingyi, Gao Yue picked up the wine cup, and after drinking to Yan Lugong, his heart fluctuated like the wind outside.

Yan Jiming in the mouth of Lu Gong is the son of his cousin Yan Gaoqing, Tianbao's fifteenth year Anshi rebels captured the Changshan City that was defended, Yan Gaoqing and his nephew, as well as the general Yuan Luqian were killed together, and the body was dismembered by the rebels. Yan Gaoqing finally sent to his wife Cui's eyes, only a strand of hair and a foot, and Yan Jiming was later taken away by his brother Quan Ming, and his body was nowhere to be found, only a broken head remained.

In grief and indignation, Yan Zhenqing wrote a draft of "Sacrificial Nephew and Praise Doctor Ji Mingwen", with 23 lines of messy strokes, 234 words full of blood and tears, and the autumn wind of the full draft.

Yan Zhenqing said at the beginning of the manuscript that Ji Ming "is very young, dreaming of young virtue, Zongmiao Hulian, stepping magnolia, every comforting heart." ”

When he knew that Yan Jiming was killed in what kind of tragic way, Yan Zhenqing cried out again, "The father trapped the son and died, and the nest overturned." If the sky does not repent, who is poisonous? Thinking of the remnants, how can a hundred bodies be redeemed? ”

In the end, Yan Zhenqing believed that although Ji Ming was a martyr, his spirit of loyalty and martyrdom should be passed down from generation to generation, so he added the signature of "descendants to protect it" at the end of the manuscript.

If Ji Ming is still alive now, he should be more than ten years older than Gao Yue in front of him, and he should also be able to rule the court, right? You can also refer to the painting of the country and participate in this great cause of recovering Helong, right?

Thinking of this, Yan Lugong burst into tears.

This is the first time Gao Yue has seen the strong Yan Lugong shed tears, after so many years of ups and downs, how could he have defeated this old man...... When he insisted on resisting the rebels in Hebei, Yan Zhenqing pioneered the Yan Salt Law, and it can be said that the Fifth Qi (who was the judge of Helan Jinming at that time) and Liu Yan were his protégés; Subsequently, he and Li Mian re-established the dignity of the imperial court and imperial power......

"How can a servant be comparable to Duke Lu's nephew......" After Gao Yue said this, hot tears also welled up in his eyes.

He is not humble.

Yan Jiming died in a flawless posture and froze.

As for himself, although he still sticks to his original intention, he has done many, many things wrong.

Hearing Gao Yue's words, Liu Yan, who was drunk next to him, opened his eyes slightly and was silent.
