When Li Er received the good news sent by Cheng Yanjin, he sent someone to send a horse quickly.

He didn't expect that the counterinsurgency army could break through the barbarian capital city occupied by the barbarians in such a short time, and he didn't expect that the thunderbolt bomb would be so useful in the siege.

Li Er convened his ministers to celebrate the victory of the Manzhou counterinsurgency, and then discussed how to govern the Manzhou after the counterinsurgency.

After the ministers did everything they said, they did not come up with a specific good method, either to say "to educate them with the righteousness of the saints" or to "send a large army to garrison the barbarian state and suppress the barbarians by thunderous means"......

Seeing that Li Er, who was originally happy for the victory in Barbarian Prefecture, the eldest grandson Wuji's face gradually began to turn cloudy, so he had to stand up and say: "Your Majesty, the eldest son of the minister, Changsun Chong, is the chief historian of the Pingban army, and the sergeant who sent the good news brought some family letters to some generals of the counterinsurgency army by the way, and the dog Zi said in the letter that a strategy can help Your Majesty pacify the barbarians in the barbarian state in one fell swoop!" ”

Li Er listened to the words of the eldest grandson Wuji and didn't ask what the plan was, Wang Gui hurriedly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister has something unclear, can you ask the eldest grandson." ”

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Li Er's opinion, he pointed to the eldest grandson Wuji and said: "Dare to ask Lord Eldest grandson, who brought your letter to the sergeant who passed on the good news, when will my Datang be able to bring the family letter when he reports the victory?" ”

When the eldest grandson Wuji heard Wang Gui ask like this, he said: "Lord Wang, the old man doesn't know who ordered the sergeant to report the victory, so you might as well ask the sergeant to report the victory." ”

Li Er pressed his hands and said: "Let's not argue about such trivial matters, and ask Wuji to tell me about the barbaric strategy written in the letter of the eldest grandson." ”

"Your Majesty, it is not a trivial matter to let the sergeant deliver the letter to his family without permission, and the old minister also asks Your Majesty to find out as soon as possible this violation of national law and disruptive military discipline!"

It is said that Wang Gui is also a famous minister of the Tang Dynasty, and he is the head of a family, with his old scheming and experience in the court, he should not have mentioned this matter at this time.

It's just that others don't know that the guide officer surnamed Wang who was sent by Wang Xingxin with explosives to "soar" is actually an illegitimate son of Wang Gui!

This guide officer is the product of Wang Gui's childhood after a night of romance, and later the father and son recognized Wang Gui and arranged for him to take care of the industry in the southwest of the house, and he wanted to take advantage of this rebellion to give his illegitimate son a certain credit, but let Wang Xingxin send it to heaven.

Although Wang Gui rarely meets the illegitimate son on weekdays, his love is undiminished, and after hearing the bad news, he can't wait to kill Wang Xingxin alive, so he picks thorns everywhere.

Li Er interrupted Wang Gui and said, "Wang Qing, this matter will be discussed later, pacification is a major matter of the country!" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji glanced at Wang Guidao and said: "Your Majesty, the minister's dog said in the letter, the minister's son-in-law, Wang Xingxin, the vanguard officer of the barbarian army, once said in the big tent that if you want to completely pacify the barbarian state, you must "rule the barbarians with barbarians, kill a group, release a group, pacify a group, and win over a group of ......"

After the eldest grandson Wuji talked eloquently for a while, Li Er exclaimed: "This is a great goodness!" If you act according to the plan, the barbarian states will not have to worry about it! ”

After the Tang Dynasty monarchs and ministers checked and filled in the omissions and perfected the entire strategy, Li Er immediately decided to send Tang Jian to lead the matter, and select suitable personnel to go to Manzhou as soon as possible to deal with the aftermath.

Li Ergang, who was overjoyed, was about to announce that he would feast the ministers in the Taiji Hall today to celebrate the victory of Manzhou.

The untimely Wang Gui jumped out again and said: "Your Majesty, since the barbaric matter has come to an end, is it time to find out the matter of privately letting the sergeant Baojie carry the family letter?" ”

Li Er, who was doused with joy by Wang Gui's basin of cold water, had to pinch his nose and said: "Since Wang Qing has to find out about this matter, I will announce that the sergeant will go to the palace, and I will personally inquire about this matter!" ”

After the sergeant was brought to the palace, Wang Gui, who jumped out before he had time to meet His Majesty Li Er, pointed to his nose and said, "Tell me quickly, who gave you the courage, who asked you to bring a letter to the generals of the army privately?" ”

After the sergeant who was confused by the question squinted at the angry old man, he knelt down very calmly and saluted Li Er: "Your Majesty, the specimen is the commander of my Tang New Army, and he obeys orders under the command of Lantian County, the pioneer officer of the Pingban Army!" I wonder what important things Your Majesty summoned to the upper hall to ask? ”

Li Er saw that this captain who reported the victory was polite and courteous, and he was neither arrogant nor humble, so he said happily: "What the lord asked you about is also what I asked, how do you explain?" ”

After hearing this, Sergeant Baojie said in his heart: "Fortunately, the lord has long expected that someone will ask about this matter, otherwise it will be trouble." ”

The sergeant who had settled down said to Li Er: "Your Majesty, it is the pioneer officer Lantian County who is under the command to carry a letter to the soldiers whose families are in Chang'an. ”

When Wang Gui heard that it was Wang Xingxin's order, he was immediately overjoyed and said, "Your Majesty also asks you to cure the sin of this lawless man!" Although Lantian County has the merit of counterinsurgency, but the merit is merit, and it is excessive! Since the founding of the country, my Datang has not reported success and has to carry a family letter, and I ask Your Majesty to deal with it in accordance with national laws and military regulations! ”

Then a large group of officials from a family came out of the class and said: "The minister seconded the proposal!" Please also ask Your Majesty to deal with it according to law! ”

Li Er saw that most of the ministers in the palace wanted him to deal with Wang Xingxin, and said unhappily: "It's just a few family letters, why are you here?" ”

Without waiting for Wang Gui to refute, he continued: "Even if I want to deal with this Lantian County Uncle, I have to wait for him to bring his troops back to the court." ”

The sergeant Baojie saw that His Majesty had the intention of protection, so he boldly said: "Your Majesty, Uncle also asked the little one to bring some words to His Majesty when he was leaving. ”

"What words? Hurry up! ”

"Your Majesty, Uncle said: My Tang Dynasty soldiers abandoned their families and children to guard the territory for Your Majesty, protect the country, and win, not only to spread the good news to Chang'an, but also to let the family send letters to relatives. The big victory is a happy event for Datang, and it is also a happy event for the people of Datang! It is a great joy for my Tang soldiers' families, and the big victory can return home as soon as possible. ”

After finishing speaking, seeing that Li Er was not displeased, he said: "Your Majesty, Uncle ordered Chang'an to report success this time, and also asked Biaoxia to bring a letter from home to all the soldiers above the commander of Chang'an." Now there are still many that have not been delivered, if nothing happens, please ask Your Majesty to allow the little one to continue to send a letter to the army in the army to report safety! ”

After hearing this, Li Er first sighed and then asked the sergeant, "Where are you?" What is it called? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the marked person is from Lantian in Chang'an, and I am afraid that my Majesty's ears will be stained when I say it, and Zhao Ergou is the name under the label."

Li Er couldn't help but smile and said: "Zhao Ergou, you hand over all the letters that have not yet been sent to Yiguo Gong, I asked him to send more people to deliver the letters of the soldiers in the army as soon as possible, and I will give you ten thousand gold, and if the army returns to the court, I will give another reward!" Now go back and report your safety to your family. ”

After hearing this, Zhao Ergou cried gratefully: "Your Majesty Shengming! The small one is for Your Majesty, and for the Tang Dynasty! ”

After Zhao Ergou went down, Li Er saw that Wang Gui wanted to say something more, and stared at Wang Gui word by word: "In the future, if the army reports success, one more person should be sent to carry a letter to the soldiers!" If anyone is not convinced, I will let him go to the army and charge into battle! ”

After finishing speaking, he didn't mention the matter of the big banquet and the ministers, and walked away.

Wang Gui, who clenched his fists, watched Li Er's back disappear into the Taiji Hall with a gloomy face, and turned to leave with a cold snort.

As soon as he walked outside the hall, he was stopped by Wei Chi Jingde and said, "Lord Wang, I don't know if you can prepare a dowry for the granddaughter of Fang Erba in the family?" ”

Wang Gui said to Wei Chi Jingde with an ugly face: "General Wei Chi, what do you mean by this?" ”

"It's not interesting, the old man heard that he said that he guaranteed the media to let your granddaughter be a concubine for Ming Shen, this kid will return to the court in the next day after his big victory in Manzhou, why don't we have a double happiness, and the old man can also ask for a cup of wine to drink......"

"Old man Captain! You deceive people too much......"

Then Niu Jinda and other generals came over to Wang Gui one by one and said hello, this said, "Congratulations to Lord Wang!" ”

The one said, "Lord Wang, the happy events of our Tang Kingdom and the happy events in your family are connected together, and it is really double happiness......"

Looking at a group of giggling generals, Wang Gui was so angry that he said loudly: "Wang Mingshen, if you don't kill you, the old man swears not to be a man!" ”

......

Li Er, who had just arrived at the Lizheng Hall with brisk steps, had not yet sat down when he saw someone come to report and say: "Your Majesty, after some quarrels between the old man Wang Gui and the generals led by General Wei Chigong in front of the Taiji Palace, he was furious and said, 'Wang Mingshen, don't kill you, the old man swears not to be a man!'" ’

Li Er, who was in a very good mood, was about to get angry after hearing this, but Empress Changsun pressed his shoulder and said, "Your Majesty, why be angry. This wicked man has his own wicked grinding, so let's wait for that kid to come back! ”
