"Is that what Yan Fengchen said?"

A sarcastic voice came from the corner of Wang Shao's mouth to the side, as if Han Gang had said something ridiculous, and Gao Zunyu also showed a smile as if he was going to mock someone.

"That's what Deputy Chief Yan said."

Han Gang nodded. After he came back from Qinzhou, he went straight to the main hall and reported to Wang Shao and Gao Zunyu what he had done in the Qinzhou Prefecture, and naturally he would not forget to relay what Yan Da said.

Wang Shao sneered twice, turned his head to Gao Zunyu and said, "Guo Zhongtong really doesn't like us to get involved in military affairs, and just wants us to go farming." ”

Gao Zunyu also sneered back: "If Guo Kui is not greedy for the work of opening up the territory and expanding the territory, why would he go against the will of Wen Shumi and guard in Qinzhou." Now seeing that Hehuang is winning one battle after another, how can he still sit still? ”

What Yanda conveyed to Han Gang that day was actually Guo Kui's thoughts...... Perhaps it would be more appropriate to say that it is a warning. It is best for the Marginal Pacification Division to focus on Tuntian and Shiyi, and don't keep thinking about provoking a war from the Prison Division, otherwise, as Qin Fengjing's pacification envoy, he Guo Kui will not sit idly by anymore.

It was impossible for Guo Kui to say this kind of thing in person, so his mind was conveyed by Yanda to Wang Shao and Gao Zunyu through Han Gang. Han Gang knew this very well, so he didn't say it word for word to the two top bosses, but he looked at the appearance of Wang and Gao, but he didn't take Guo Kui's warning to heart at all.

"Guo Zhongtong didn't say anything else?" Wang Shao sneered for a while, and continued to ask Han Gang.

Han Gang shook his head this time, "Taiwei Guo just asked about the details of the battle of Weiyuan Fort and the casualties, and didn't say anything else. ”

Wang Shao was not surprised by Han Gang's answer. Guo Kui asked Yan Da to relay his own selfishness, it is enough for Yan Da to mention it, where is the reason for going into battle shirtless.

Wang Shao picked up the hot tea and brushed off the foam on the tea soup with the lid of the bowl. Guwei is deserted, and even Wang Shao doesn't have a few cakes of good tea in his hands. The tea I drink now is all tea bricks that are usually sold to the Tibetan people, and it can only be regarded as water with a little tea taste. But after suffering for several years in the northwest border, Wang Shao has already drunk such coarse tea, unlike Gao Zunyu, who would rather drink water than drink tea bricks pressed with tea stems and old leaves.

After taking two sips, Wang Shao raised his head and asked Han Gang: "Yukun, what do you think of what Guo Zhongtong and Yan Fengchen said?" ”

“…… Taiwei Guo is too selfish, but for the time being, he will go to his liking, and it will not hurt me. ”

Han Gang could see that Wang Shao and Gao Zunyu would never agree to let Guo Kui pick the fruit. Even if they are willing to share Guo Kui's piece of the pie, it will only be cold rice scraps. No one will have too many military achievements, whether it is to expand the territory or protect the sky, once you have made enough achievements on the battlefield, you can easily leave a legacy for generations.

Think about what is the surname of the coach who stepped into the South Tang? Look at what is the surname of the current Queen Mother?

Think about it again, what is the surname of the palace marshal who pushed Emperor Zhenzong across the Yellow River in Lanzhou? Let's take a look at what is the surname of the current Queen Mother?

The Cao and Gao families, from the founding of the country to the present, have been a hundred years, but they have always been members of the famous family, and they can even marry with the heavenly family. And those civil and official wealthy families who were prosperous at the beginning of the country have long since disappeared.

If the credit for opening up the Xihe River and Tuobian Hehuang can be successful, it will be the first credit after the destruction of the Northern Han Dynasty. Unless someone can destroy the Western Xia, there will be no greater merit in the northwest. Wang Shao is thinking about relying on this merit to fight for him and his descendants for a hereditary iron rice bowl, how can he be willing to give it to others?

In front, Li Dou grabbed the three of them, and Wang Shao tried his best to drive all the three of them away with the help of Gao Zunyu and Han Gang. Now that Guo Kui has come to fight for the right to lead the army, Wang Shao will certainly not be willing to give up.

However, Han Gang was not optimistic about Wang Shao's command ability, and it was difficult for civilian officials to achieve anything without some training, along with Han Gang himself. On the battlefield this time, whether it is Wang Shao or Han Gang, there are too many mistakes, if it weren't for Yu Zang Huama's side, there are also problems, and the outcome is especially knowable - no, Han Gang doesn't think that this time he and Yu Zang will have a victory. The losses on both sides were comparable, and Yu Zang Huama withdrew smoothly. No matter how you look at it, it can't be regarded as a victory on the side of the official army.

"Now that Yu Zang Huama has gone back to his hometown to lick his wounds, Mu Zheng looks like as long as we don't attack Wu Shengjun, he won't make any moves, at least there will be no big war in half a year. Now is the time to lay the foundation of the Marginal Pacification Division. After spending about half a year to stabilize the foundation, there is no need to worry about what other means Guo Taiwei has. He looked at Wang Shao and Gao Zunyu, "Now that Taiwei Guo is in charge of the Privy Council, it is much easier for us here." If Guo Taiwei is offended severely, the situation will be much more serious than when Li, Dou, and Xiang were all in Qinzhou. And it's unnecessary."

The meaning of Han Gang's words is to fool Guo Kui first, and wait for half a year to see if things will turn around. Guo Kui's status is too high, it is not a good idea to fight with him, and it will be delayed for a while.

On the other hand, maybe in the past six months, Wang and Gao's thoughts may change. Han Gang wanted Guo Kui to lead the army, so as to ensure the best chance of winning the last victory.

"At the beginning of next year, it's time to appease and return to Beijing." Wang Shao has been in Qinzhou for almost three years, and with his current position, it is a matter of duty to return to Beijing to face the saint - the first term of the border minister, he must return to Beijing, "If the pacification can promote the imperial court to set up an army in Guwei at that time, and give the Yuanbian pacification division the formal right to govern the army and manage the people, it will be much more difficult for Guo Taiwei to intervene in the Hehuang war at that time." ”

Gao Zunyu said with a smile: "If you want Gu Wei to be promoted to the army, from the suggestion to the approval, it is just as Yukun you just said, at least half a year." ”

"In the next six months, even if you want to go to war, you can't get money and food, so you can only rest for a while - Yan Yan eats too hard." Han Gang said.

"Because Han Zihua hasn't given up yet." Wang Shao sneered, the Shaanxi Forbidden Army stationed near Jingzhao Mansion did not take it in his eyes. "Although Liang Yibu took the lead in repairing Luowu City, Yanzhou should not stop there."

The competition for Hengshan with Western Xia was a national-level strategy that had been approved by the Son of Heaven. Now although the plan is blocked, Wang Shao does not think that Han Jiang and Chong Ge will easily admit defeat, which is also the consensus of Gao Zunyu and Han Gang and others.

said some official things again, and after resigning from Wang and Gao, Han Gang wanted to go back to his office. It's just that he stepped out of the courtyard door, but saw Wang Sunchen waiting outside the door.

Seeing Han Gang, Wang Sunchen immediately called: "Third brother! ”

Han Gang stopped and asked, "What, you're here to drink with me?" ”

"Half of them." Wang Sunchen replied with a grin.

"What's the other half?"

Wang Sunchen took out a letter from his bosom, "This is the letter brought by the nineteenth brother, and the letter from the seventeenth brother to me came with it......"

"Nineteen, seventeen ......" Han Gang was slightly stunned, then woke up, and took the letter with a smile: "It turned out to be Uncle Yi's letter." ”

……………………

Yanzhou. Shaanxi Xuanfu Division Yamen.

Chong Jianzhong looked up at the sky. Lead-colored clouds obscured the sky, gray and heavy, giving people the feeling that a thousand pounds of boulders were pressing on their hearts.

Although he was in the main courtyard of the Xuanfu Division, he could only see a small sky when he looked up, which made Chong Jianzhong feel inexplicably depressed. On the other side, on the other side of the main courtyard, in the White Tiger Festival Hall where important military aircraft matters were discussed, his fifth uncle was discussing the latest military information with Han Jiang. When the officers who came and went around passed by, they were all lightly moved, and this oppressed atmosphere also made Chong Jianzhong feel very unhappy.

"Uncle Yi ......" someone behind him called Chong Jianzhong's name, and Chong Jianzhong looked back and looked at it, but it was his old acquaintance who was very comfortable.

The closed door of the White Tiger Festival Hall in the middle of the building pouted, "Are you here to wait for Uncle Ling?" ”

Zhi Keshi nodded, and also asked, "Uncle Yi is also here to wait for Uncle Ling, right?" ”

"Yes! …… Inside, there is a discussion on how to pull out the nail from the Wuding River. I don't know when we will be able to come up with a result. ”

"It's definitely going to be fought. But I have heard about the specific time and how many people were mobilized, and these must be inquired clearly. "Zhe Keshi was once called a general by Guo Kui, and his reputation in the army is much higher than that of Jianzhong.

The Zhe family was born in Fan, and has a great influence in Linzhou and Fuzhou on Hedong Road. Chong Jianzhong once heard Zhe Keshi boast that the genealogy of the Zhe family can be traced back to Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, after the emperor. Zhe Keshi is the thirty-third or thirty-fourth grandson of Emperor Xiaowen.

Although from Emperor Wei Xiaowen to this time, it has been passed on to more than 30 belts in less than 600 years, but the Li family of the Tang Dynasty has done the thing of pulling tiger skin to do the banner, and the current Zhao official family has also done it, and what the Zhe family has done is not surprising - not everyone has the freedom of Di Qing who does not recognize Di Renjie as an ancestor.

The folded family is hereditary prefecture. From the end of the Tang Dynasty to today, it has been more than 200 years, and in terms of family origins, the Zhi family is enough to be proud of any Jiangmen family in the Great Song Dynasty, and the only thing that makes the Zhe family feel unhappy is that they are still regarded as Fan officials.

As two insignificant entourages, they were not qualified to enter the White Tiger Festival Hall to discuss military intelligence. Now that the two of them are in Han Jiang's main courtyard, they must be cautious in their words and deeds.

Chong Jianzhong changed the topic and asked, "I heard that you have made a great contribution in Jintang City this time?" ”

"It's far inferior to Uncle Yi, the Han Yukun you mentioned last time." Zhi Keshi shook his head, "You have also read Qin Feng's battle report, Han Yukun has made a lot of efforts in it." There are also rumors that even the envoy from Western Xia was killed by him with his own hands. ”

Chong Jianzhong was surprised: "Didn't it say that one of his chieftains of the Tibetan tribe did it?" ”

Zhi Keshi asked rhetorically: "Since the iron wall has been the prince, have you ever seen such a patriarch of the Fan tribe who does not give face to the party members?" ”
