Chapter 45: The Great Victory of the Five Rivers
"Great victory, great victory, great victory of five rivers!"
"The soldiers and civilians of the Five Rivers work together to repel the invading Turkic Mako!"
"I'm a famous general in Anxi, a 17-year-old Xiang army commanded thousands of miles to attack the Turkic camp, beheaded 5,000, and beheaded more than 30 leaders below Chief Hu!"
The officials of the Yueshi Governor's Mansion began to beat gongs and drums along the streets and alleys of the city from early in the morning, shouting the victory of the five rivers at the top of their voices, and the residents in the city talked about it after hearing the rumors, among which there were those who were inexplicably surprised, those who were cold-eyed bystanders, and those who ridiculed and ridiculed, in short, no one believed that this so-called great victory was true.
Since the rebellion of the Tangut people a few decades ago, when have the military leaders of the Anxi Protectorate won a battle?
Throw a piece of land to Tibet today, and give up a state and county to the Turks tomorrow, even the local Tu people in the Western Regions dare to casually cut off a piece of land in Anxi to claim the king's hegemony, and the Longyou Dao, which was originally comparable in size to Middle Earth, has long since become fragmented, and the children of the Han family who galloped the grasslands of the Western Regions can only retreat in a few military towns now, and give up the good land outside the city to the Western Regions Qunhu.
Not to mention other places, just say that this Yue's Governor's Mansion, since the opening of the mansion in the third year of Xianqing, at its peak, led the Great Xia, the Lan family, the Buddha enemy, the Han Lou, Panyue, Salad, Gabe, Sogdia, Shuangquan, Chisan and other twenty-four states, but now?
Now everyone privately calls the Yue's Governor's Mansion the Huozhou Governor's Mansion? Why, it's not because the state capital actually controlled by the Governor's Office is only Tocharian left.
Even the Governor's Office was not peaceful in the city, and the Tu tribes living in the Western Regions were all ready to move, thinking all the time about overthrowing the rule of the Han people and rebuilding the Kushan Empire, which had perished hundreds of years ago.
If it weren't for the fact that there were still thousands of Anxi Tang troops stationed in the city, those guys who claimed to be descendants of the Kushan Empire would have jumped out to rebel long ago.
In the Yue's Governor's Mansion, a group of military leaders of the Tocharian army gathered in the White Tiger Hall to discuss the military aircraft, and the content they discussed was the 'Five Rivers Victory' that everyone knew and everyone didn't believe.
The White Tiger Hall is an important place to discuss military aircraft, and as soon as you enter the door, you can see a map that occupies the entire wall, this map should be the most detailed map of the Anxi region in this era, the mountains and rivers of the Anxi region, the towns and tribes are all drawn and on the map.
In front of the map, a circle of tables and chairs was arranged, and the bigwigs of the Tocharian army were sitting around these chairs, and if Pan Xiaogu was here, he would see many familiar figures among these bigwigs.
Sitting on the top of the throne is Pan Xiaogu's old acquaintance, the original historical Song Shenzong Zhao Ji, Zhao Dudu still maintains his expression of pampering and humiliation, like a clay statue Bodhisattva sitting on the as; Sitting on the left hand side of Zhao Dudu was another old acquaintance of Pan Xiaogu, Cheng Huanzhang, Lord Cheng, his beard was very recognizable, and at this time, Lord Cheng was looking at the person sitting opposite him with disdain.
Sitting opposite Cheng Huanzhang is a thin middle-aged man, he has a pair of triangular eyes, a pointed chin, and a mustache.
"Cheng Junhou, it is a major matter for the military government to report the victory, how can you make a big deal about it without verifying because of a child's false words, don't you know the situation in the city now? Once this great victory is fake, the majesty of our military government will be lost, and then the Zhuhu in the city will inevitably take action, and Huozhou will no longer be owned by our Anxi. Master Cheng, can you bear this result? ”
When he spoke, Wang Lun's eyes kept rolling, and the beard on his mouth was like two rat tails, beating with the opening of his mouth, and he looked exactly like the bad-hearted master in the movie.
"The surname Wang, if you don't scare people to rebel with your mouth closed, I'll take it with you in the city to see which one of him dares to rebel!"
Cheng Huanzhang glanced at Wang Lun with disdain, and the other military leaders looked at Wang Lun with some dissatisfaction, these people were responsible for the garrison of the city, and Wang Lun's statement really denied their previous work.
Wang Lun saw the dissatisfied looks of the others with his spare eyes, and knew that he had accidentally provoked the anger of the people, and he did not dare to use the big hat of the Tu rebellion indiscriminately
"Okay, let's not talk about the Tu people, let's talk about something else, Cheng Jun waited for you to order the soldiers to trumpet the victory of the Five Rivers without the permission of the Governor of Zhao, and last time, you privately ordered the government guards to leave the city to help a group of people of unknown origin train the army, do you have the eyesight of the national law and military regulations, and do you have the governor of Zhao, do you know that you have committed the felony of falsely passing on military orders and lying about the military situation, you ....."
Before Wang Lun finished speaking, he was interrupted by Cheng Huanzhang, his voice was too loud, as long as he opened his mouth, he would definitely overshadow the voices of others.
"Then it's good to cure my sins again, this time do you still have to report to the Dadu Protector Mansion and let the Duhu Lord cure my crimes? It doesn't matter, it's a big deal, I'm going to be a big soldier, what can you do with me? ”
Cheng Huanzhang, as the top military force in the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, and after he was the founding general, his official position was actually just a small Du Yuhou, and the crux of the matter was here - he made a mistake and was demoted. However, even if he was demoted, Cheng Huanzhang still had a huge influence in the army, which can be seen from the fact that he was able to mobilize many government guards, including the captain of Zhichong Prefecture, only by private orders.
"You...."Wang Lun was speechless by Cheng Huanzhang's anger, his face turned blue, and his two beards were shaking non-stop.
"Governor Zhao, this is an urgent report from my nephew, please take a look." Cheng Huanzhang took out a secret letter and handed it to Zhao Ji
Although he dared to confront Wang Lun, he still had to save a little face for Zhao Xuan, although he had actually set up the new governor of Huozhou.
Zhao Ji looked as usual and received the secret letter handed by Cheng Huanzhang, the Anxi army raised a large number of letter harriers, which were specially used to deliver urgent news, Cheng Yun brought one with him, and after Pan Xiaogu conquered the camp of the Gilliga Keree Department, he asked the letter harrier to transmit the news back to the containment city.
There are two secret letters sent back by Cheng Yun, one is the one held by Zhao Xuan, which not only records the results of the raid on the first battle of the big camp, but also asks for food aid from the city, because the big camp not only beheaded nearly 4,000 people in the first battle - the beheading of 5,000 people in the good news is calculated from the results of the previous battle of Panjiabao, and nearly 3,000 prisoners were also captured, plus more than 1,000 people captured before, Pan Xiaogu has 5,000 more mouths to eat here, and the food in the territory is not enough.
And there is only one message on the other secret letter, the Pan family is willing to take out thousands of catties of iron in exchange for trading with Anxi every year.
As soon as Cheng Huanzhang saw the words 'thousand catties of iron essence' and 'trading', he immediately knew how to do it.
