What Li Linfu said was still a secret, and very few people knew the details, and only a few of the major border towns were directly involved.

These are the five major festival towns he mentioned.

The four towns of Anxi and the northwest court of Yixi will attack the east from the north and west, Hexi and Longyou, and the Jiannan Jiedu envoy will be responsible for the south.

Among the five sections, Hexi and Longyou have the most powerful troops, totaling nearly 150,000 people, plus 44,000 in Anxi and 20,000 in Jiannan, a total of more than 200,000.

This is only on paper, in fact, just the town of Jiannan, last year to fight with the vassal Nanzhao of Tubo, nearly 100,000 horses were dispatched, therefore, the encirclement of the five towns will be the largest scale in the history of the Tang Dynasty, the most ambitious operation, without exception all pointed to a goal.

Tubo, this is the trouble in Li Linfu's mouth.

In fact, from the beginning of Tianbao, the strategic direction of the Tang Dynasty has gradually shifted to Tubo, which of course has the disappearance of the strong enemy in the north and the peaceful entry of the West, but there is also a more direct reason, it is too close to Chang'an City.

Judging from the map, as long as the Longyou is broken, the hinterland of Guanzhong will be immediately exposed to the enemy's iron hooves, this truth is not unknown to anyone, but if the labor division goes on an expedition, it will have to cross the Qingqiang Plateau with an average altitude of three to five thousand meters.

The defeat of the two Dafeichuan has become an eternal pain in history, and now, the national strength of the Tang Dynasty has reached its peak, while the Tubo people are going downhill, and the court has seen this, so they will formulate such a huge plan.

Li Longji has entered the twilight of his life, for him, Wenzhi has reached its peak, love is close to perfection, and only martial arts have become the only pursuit.

The emperor attaches great importance to the side work, and if he wants to obtain the qualifications for promotion, he naturally knows what to do, even Yang Guozhong, who is sitting in the capital and leading the Jiannan Jiedu envoy from afar, is no exception.

Li Linfu is so actively promoting, I am afraid that he also has his own thoughts in it, Li Longji looked at him quietly, wanting to know whether the mouth that flowed out of the mouth that could tell the dead alive was honey or poison.

"If the minister is guilty, he will be exempted from the crown, and he will wait for the division."

Li Linfu's behavior was unexpected again, he untied the rope under his chin with both hands, took off the five-beam crown on his head, held it in his hand with one hand, and then lifted the feet of his robe and knelt on the ground.

This time, Li Longji did not let people help him early, because it was not clear what had happened at the bottom, so it was naturally inconvenient to show his attitude prematurely, at this time, the role of Gaolishi was highlighted, he took a step forward, bent down and said in Li Linfu's ear.

"What does Xiangguo have to say, you might as well say it clearly, the Son of Heaven has been out for a long time, he doesn't get a drop of wine, and he hasn't eaten a grain of rice.

"The minister is ashamed that he failed to detect the treacherous evil, which caused turmoil at the border and burned the plains, so I hereby ask Your Majesty for guilt."

Li Longji groaned slightly, and quickly guessed: "Something happened to Shuo Fang?" ”

"The Son of Heaven Shengming, Zhang Wei came to report after Shuofang Jiedu stayed, and Li Xianzhong, the deputy envoy of Jiedu and the king of Fengxin, led his troops to plunder the treasury, looking for an opportunity to flee north, and he had fled to Mobei and did not know where to go."

Li Linfu handed the document in his hand to Gao Lishi, who did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly handed it over to Li Longji's hand, but found that his fingers trembled slightly, showing that he was extremely angry.

"I treat him well, why is this so? Gonu, you say. ”

"The minister doesn't dare to say anything, there are words in the documents, please read it to Your Majesty."

Li Longji shook off the paperwork in his hand, the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became, his face was full of anger, his beard trembled, and after reading it, he threw the paperwork directly to the ground, and the person also stood up from the Hu bed, and walked to Li Linfu with his hands behind his back, his voice was urgent and ruthless.

"If you have any grievances, can you talk to me, just leave, am I so unreasonable? An Lushan also doesn't know anything, and you, such a big thing came out in March, and you dare to press it until now, what is your intention? ”

"It's all the minister's fault, after receiving the news, the minister thought that there might be some misunderstanding inside, so he ordered someone to bring a letter to Li Xianzhong, hoping to save his heart......" Li Linfu didn't even dare to raise his head, just blindly asked for guilt.

"What else is there to salvage? He Li Xianzhong does not want a future, and tens of thousands of people from the same Luo Department also followed him on the road of no return, and Zhao'an only once, it is they themselves who do not cherish it, I not only have mercy, but also thunder, otherwise how dare I call it 'Heavenly Khan', and I will do it. Li Longji interrupted him unceremoniously, facing Gao Lishi, waving his hand in the air.

Gao Lishi hurriedly summoned the waiting scholar who was waiting for the edict, and spread out the pen and paper on the bookcase on the side.

"Li Xianzhong vainly betrayed the grace of the saints, and the sin was unforgivable, and ordered the Yanbian towns, especially the An Lushan Department, to join forces to suppress them, and be sure to expel them from Mobei.

This is no way to live, the sudden thunderous anger, not only Li Linfu trembled, but even Gao Xianzhi, who had nothing to do with it, felt the same way, and couldn't escape, and was at a loss for a while, and stood restless.

"As for you." Li Longji looked at Li Linfu: "Although it is only a remote leader, it is your head and tail at the end, and the position of Shuo Fang Jiedu envoy will be handed over." ”

"The minister has this intention, Your Majesty forgives the sin, there is a sentence, the minister still has to say." Facing the anger of the Son of Heaven, Li Linfu protested: "Li Xianzhong is resentful, Gayin is at odds with the king of Xiping County, and the most important thing at present is the candidate for this festival envoy, and we must not make the same mistakes again." ”

"Go on." Li Longji's face was a little pale, his face was still tense, his mood was already bad, and two troubles in a row just gave a reason for the attack, but it was not entirely aimed at the other party.

"For the heart of the king of the county, the minister asked An Sishun to be transferred to the Shuofang Festival envoy, one is that he has served in this position, saving a lot of effort, and the other is that he is the brother of the county king, with him in charge, the side generals will not be suspicious."

The truth is indeed such a truth, Li Longji's anger has been sprinkled, and his mood has gradually calmed down, and following this line of thought, a simple logic has been formed.

An Sishun is indeed the best candidate to be transferred to Shuofang Jiedu Envoy, and as soon as he leaves, the seat of Hexi Jiedu Envoy will be vacant, and it is logical that the proposal that was not completed last year, that is, Gao Xianzhi taking over Hexi, can continue.

The question is, could it be that simple?

In his forty years of imperial career, he has long developed the habit of not looking at the surface of everything, and thinking of Li Linfu's performance after today, he has a trace of vigilance in his heart.

This old fox has played a trick of "hiding from the sky and crossing the sea"!
