Pei Yanling hurriedly said that the minister had just counted the treasury of the branch secretary and predicted that there should still be a surplus in the treasury of the two taxes this year: if His Majesty could agree to the request of the Fengcheng Khan and give the Uighur court appropriate support, so that the Fengcheng Khan could fight against the Khags and Qarluq, then it was believed that the situation of the Uighurs would soon be stabilized, and then they would be able to concentrate on dealing with Huaixi Town.

Lu Yi objected again: "Your Majesty! Fengcheng Khan was not yet an adult, and now the Uighur state was all in the hands of the ministers and Meilu, the hearts of the people were uneven, each with a ghost, and there were Manichaean monks ready to move, if he gave millions of dollars to Fengcheng Khan at this moment, how would it be different from handing over the treasure to a baby surrounded by bandits? ”

"What about what Lu Jiu saw?" The Emperor asked.

Lu Zhen proposed that it would be better to take out this million guan and distribute it to Xu Baohui of the Tiande Army and Zhang Guangsheng of the Zhenwu Army, so that they could expand their respective military cities, build a large Luo City outside, move the people from all sides into the city to protect them, and spend ten large bronze cannons each from the artillery bureaus of Dachangyuan and Jialugu to add them, and let the Erjiedu envoy urge the soldiers to do their best to camp the fields and repair the beacons. In less than a year, the military cities of Shuofang and Hetao had large cities, artillery, and a large number of people holding on to their grain and straw, and no matter how the situation of the Uighurs changed, the original system of the three surrendered cities of our Tang Dynasty could ensure the peace and security of northern Xinjiang.

Seeing that Lu Zhen was right, Pei Yanling and Zhao Jing were all jealous in their hearts.

And Gao Yue also held a similar idea as Lu Zhen: "Now that my Tang Dynasty has restored the Northwest Court of An, and the Uighur trade routes have been separated from my Tang territory, it has long been a situation of symbiosis and co-prosperity, so in the future, no matter who is in charge of the tooth tent, as long as I Tang canonize it, the relationship between the two countries will still be that of father and son." ”

Then Gao Yue also said that the original military city in the north adopted the old era of Zhang Renyuan and An Sishun's city building system, which was suitable for cavalry garrison, but not suitable for new firearms.

"What?" The Emperor asked.

Gao Yue replied that he was the chief monk of Xingyuan Huguo Temple and Master Mingxuan.

"Once under the regulations of Heavenly City, I also had the help of this mage, and let the mage go to Tiande and Zhenwu to build a city, what doubt do I have?" The Emperor readily agreed.

In this regard, Pei Yanling hurriedly put on a smile again, saying that what Gao Gao Lang and Lu Menlang said was extremely true, and the ministers only knew about the affairs of the department and did not see the country's distant views, and asked the Holy Lord and the ruling not to blame.

But secretly, Pei Yanling had already turned seven or eight corners and began to plan to lay new traps.

"The matter of the Uighurs will be dealt with in this way, and Gao Yue's request to resign from the Zhongshu squire, I will also approve it, and Gao Yue will leave the town of Huainan on a certain day." The call of Yanying Hall is the final result.

However, the next day, Pei Yanling secretly instructed people to release the resolution that Yanying had summoned and should have been kept strictly confidential to Huaixi and Ziqing.

Huaixi has always been divided, and he has long since removed the Jinjuan in Chang'an City, but he still secretly left an eyeliner.

However, Li Shigu of Ziqing has always had a "backyard" in the eastern capital of Luoyang (his duties are similar to those of the Jinjuan Academy), and at the same time, he also installed an inner line in the post station in Chang'an City.

At the same time, the officials of the Jinyuan in Xuanwu Town first got the news that Gao Yue was about to leave the town of Huainan and suppress Huaixi from the arrangements of Pei Yanling and Zhao Jing, but this news could not be copied in the palace newspaper in a grand manner, so several officials took up the pen and wrote it on the "tabloid", and a secret clip was mixed with the regular palace newspaper and delivered it to Li Wanrong in Bianzhou City; The other was secretly transferred by the businessmen who were attached to it to Li Shigu and Wu Shaocheng's insiders.

This information soon followed the post road from Chang'an to the east, crossed Tongguan, and arrived at Luoyang, the eastern capital.

The Pinglu army stayed in the backyard of Luoyang City, and the general Zi Jiazhen immediately sent someone to transfer the tabloid to Yunzhou City.

The Tang Dynasty's Di Bao did not have a beginning and an end, but only divided the entries according to time and events.

The newspaper Li Shigu saw only one line of entry, "The Son of Heaven in Chang'an wants to use Gaoyue Town in Huainan and transfer it to Shouzhou, intending to flatten Huaixi!" ”

Before Li Shigu, the new Xuanwu Army Festival of Bianzhou Military City made Li Wanrong see exactly the same content of the entry.

Li Shigu's reaction to this was furious: "Gao Yue, he suppressed Yuanyi in Zhaozhou before, and instructed Xiahou Zhongxuan to slaughter more than 700 rebels in Qingzhang County......

Li Shigu's younger brother Li Shidao also said: Now that our Pinglu Army and Wu Shaocheng are indeed in a cold relationship, we must work together to fight against Gao Yue, "On the side of the Eastern Capital, do you want to let Zi Jiazhen and the two generals of Mencha do it?" ”

"Don't be impatient, and see what Li Wanrong does." Li Shigu said that there is no need to be too impulsive, and Xuanwuzhen's attitude is also very crucial.

In the military city of Bianzhou, Li Wanrong avoided Ju Wenzhen, and after seeing the tabloid entrapped in the newspaper, he quietly summoned his son Sima Li Nai to tell him the current state of affairs.

"The imperial court was suspicious of his father, and set up a supervising army envoy Ju Wenzhen to grasp the slightest movement of the Xuanwu army. As the saying goes, if Huaixi and Ziqing cease to exist, then our Xuanwu Army will definitely be the next Fang town to be flattened by the imperial court. Today's strategy is to join hands with Wu Shaocheng and Li Shigu to attack Chen Xu and Shaanxi Yu as their own, cut off the fortunes of the imperial court, and Chang'an will defeat itself without a fight. Li Nai suggested.

Li Wanrong shook his head and said Son, you did say the first half of the sentence correctly, but your strategy is really the next choice.

"What does Father think?"

"Of course, I will continue to be a lackey of the imperial court...... Li Wanrong said loudly, and then he looked at Li Nai with a puzzled face, and sneered again, "I, Xuanwujun, immediately took the initiative to ask Ying to be the main force of Pinghuaixi, Ping, slowly flattened, Pinghe for two years and three years, and used the financial resources of the imperial court to collapse, so that His Majesty knew the difficulty and retreated, and then took advantage of the situation to start an incident." In this way, the cunning rabbit will not die, and the lackeys will not cook. ”

Li Nai was stunned for a while, and after he figured it out, he couldn't help but praise his father's decision-making, high, really high.

"Although my plan is exquisite, it also needs the cooperation of Huaixi and Ziqing, and I will leave this matter to you to pass it on......" Li Wanrong said to his son.

Ten days later, in Caizhou City, Wu Shaocheng summoned his brother-in-law Wu Shaoyang, as well as his son-in-law, Dong Chongqing, a native of Huaixi, to him, "Bendao got the exact news, the court did not know that he was dead, and he really wanted to appoint Gao Yue out of Huainan Town, in a vain attempt to mistreat me to Huaixi." ”

Wu Shaoyang and Dong Chongzhi both gritted their teeth, "It's time to punish the imperial court, please send troops to Wanluo, and then force the imperial court to remove Gao Yue." ”

At this moment, Wu Shaocheng stood up and pointed to the ground, "Not only to remove the grant of Gao Yue Huainanjie's envoy, but also to dismiss him as a scholar." Don't worry, Biansong and Ziqing are willing to help us openly and secretly, and fight boldly with confidence! ”

At the end of April, Dong Chongzhi led 2,000 Huaixi mule troops, and suddenly attacked, and plundered Wuyang, Yexian, and Xiangcheng counties on the imperial side, and the local people were brutally poisoned, their houses were burned, and their crops were trampled and burned.

Shannan Dongdao Jiedu envoy Dong Jin and Chen Xu Jiedu made Quhuan, eagerly playing the imperial court, saying that Huaixi Wu Shaocheng rebelled, and recruited outlaws from Xianzhou, and followed the river to the east to plunder Huainan Shouzhou tea plantation.

Almost at the same time, under the operation of Li Yuanping, the mastermind of Huaixi, Caizhou sent several officials to Chang'an, warning that if the imperial court dared to order Gaoyuejie to town Huainan, all towns in the eastern part of the country would inevitably raise troops on the "Qingjun side"!
