Chapter 200: The Arrow Pointed at Tibet for Revenge
The drizzle falls on the Yangtze River, the waves break against the current, the weeping willows gently sway and hang the evening clothes, and the sunset is not seen.
After lunch, a light rain fell in the sky, and it was already dark before evening, and there was no speed at which the apes on both sides of the strait could not stop crying, and the light boat had passed the ten thousand mountains, and it was also impossible to feel the feeling of the wind blowing.
Li Xun clutched his chest and found Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.
"Xiaobao, I'm sick, if I don't do it, I guess I won't be able to stand it anymore, and I'll leave the matter to you in the future, but I still have a wish to fulfill."
As soon as he saw Zhang Xiaobao and the others, Li Xun gasped vigorously and said.
Zhang Xiaobao approached Li Xun and rolled his eyes, and said suspiciously, "Why are you uncomfortable?" Didn't see a doctor? ”
"It's useless, I'm not good at it, Xiaobao, people live a life, they always have to be vigorous, I think I have nothing else, it's just one less opportunity to do big things, Xiaobao, look at the relationship we have gotten along in the past few years, you must let me shine in the sky like a meteor."
Li Xun's eyes were slightly closed, and his breathing gradually weakened.
Wang Juan stood next to him and watched for a while, then turned around and went back to continue to be busy, Zhang Xiaobao's nervous appearance just now was still maintained, but the corners of his mouth turned up, and when Li Xun opened his left eye slightly, Zhang Xiaobao hurriedly lowered the corners of his mouth again.
asked sadly: "Li Gongzi, if you have anything to say, I will definitely help if I can, don't worry, with our relationship, I will never let you hang up so plainly." ”
When Li Xun heard this, his right eye also opened, but his breathing still didn't seem so smooth, and he said weakly: "I hope that after I arrive in Yizhou, your family will equip me with some more sleeve arrows, and I will be loyal to the country." ”
"This, do you want to kill yourself with a Hidden Arrow." Zhang Xiaobao asked suspiciously.
"No, I'm going to kill the enemy."
"Oh~! Kill Tibet, right? You're sick after killing you? I'm sorry, don't think about it, it's not your turn to do it, tell me, what did you ask them for? ”
Zhang Xiaobao thought about it, if he wanted to kill the enemy in Yizhou, he could only go to Tubo, which seemed to have something to do with this transfer, but the three of them just didn't tell themselves, so they had to wait until they could, so they had to ask Li Xun in a roundabout way.
Li Xun was stunned for a moment, his breathing didn't change so much, he stared at Zhang Xiaobao for a while and asked, "How do you know?" ”
"I'm stupid, I don't know anything, I decided, because the boat on the river, my family is unwell, postpone the trip, stop the boat and dock, eat all the delicious food in the river, waiting to recuperate."
Zhang Xiaobao thought of a way to get the news as soon as possible, that is, to delay, and when others don't have enough time, they will naturally discuss it with him.
"And what about my volunteering like a shooting star?" Li Xun is still thinking about him.
"Your IQ can't be a meteor, be the moon, wait for someone else's sun-like brilliance to fall, and you will appear again." Zhang Xiaobao euphemistically expressed his own meaning.
Li Xun still strove and said: "Then there is still a time when the sun and the moon come out together." ”
"Then I can leave the finishing work to you." Zhang Xiaobao compromised a step.
Zhang Xiaobao said that he would do it, and the speed of the fleet slowed down that night and began to look for a place to land.
As he thought, Old Man Bi and Old Man Yao couldn't stay stunned, pulled up Old Man Zhang, held a small teapot in his hand, and sipped it into his mouth from time to time and shook it.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan took a group of little guys to play games, and a few adults were seasick, but the little ones were still so active that they didn't seem to be affected by the ups and downs of the boat at all.
A group of people stand in a circle, in the middle is a big ball sewn with a fish drift, kicking back and forth, kicking and waiting for others to kick again, kicking and chasing hard, many times it is two little guys to grab at the same time, and they want to kick themselves.
"Xiaobao, why is the boat slow?" After the old man Bi kicked back the ball that had been kicked at his feet, he asked Zhang Xiaobao.
"The little ones are not in good health, they can't go fast, and my grandfather, I have to find a place to rest on the shore, if I can't get it right, it will be many days at night when I get to Yizhou, and I don't know if the court will blame it, but there is no way, I can't do anything in order to rush to the place, it's a big deal to be an official, find a few acres of land to live a good life."
Zhang Xiaobao pointed to his younger brothers and sisters and replied.
The three old men didn't see which one was in bad health, they looked at each other, and Old Man Yao sighed and finally spoke.
"Xiaobao, there is something I think I should tell you, even if it is against the grace of God to say it, come with me."
"Grandpa Yao, don't, how can I harm you, don't worry, it's just that King Li Jun seems to be a meteor, and he wants to charge into battle, it's difficult, let him be still dissatisfied when the moon is bright, what's the matter?"
Zhang Xiaobao didn't give face at all, he was most annoyed by the uncertain battle, since it was kept secret, then keep it safe, I won't go, see when your things can be transported to the place, or don't use the fleet of Zhang Wang's two families as a cover.
Li Xun knew about it, and kept it secret for himself, which is beyond words.
Saying this, Zhang Xiaobao followed Old Man Yao to a place where there was no one next to him, and Old Man Bi and the others also came over.
Wang Juan gathered the little ones and their subordinates together, went to a distant place to play, and did not disturb the conversation of the four people.
Zhang Xiaobao and Old Man Bi sat down, Old Man Bi looked left and right, and said: "Actually, this time I went to Yizhou, mainly to ...... to Tubo."
"If we use force against Tibet, and I am afraid that people will know about it, we will use our fleet as a cover, so that if there is a surprise, my family will have to take the risk to cooperate, and I will not tell you."
Without waiting for Old Man Bi to finish speaking, Zhang Xiaobao continued, with a dissatisfied look.
Old man Bi shut up, and Old Man Zhang said at this time: "Then do you know why you want to use force against Tubo? Mainly......"
"The main reason is that the embankment breach of the Wangjiang River in Shuzhou has something to do with them, and the court checked and checked, and finally found that one or a few people in this dynasty were deceived by the spies of others, and if they don't clean up the people of this dynasty, they just want to paralyze Tubo.
But what does this have to do with my family? My father is going to Luoyang, not to Yizhou, he has exchanged benefits, and he still knows integrity when he does business, not to mention the imperial court. ”
Zhang Xiaobao took over the words again, and the meaning expressed was, don't think that my family doesn't know anything, but we have to continue to exchange.
Old man Yao opened his mouth and was about to say, but Old Man Bi said angrily: "Why didn't you give your family an exchange, don't your grandfather and Juanjuan's grandfather have official positions?" When your family left, the salt farm you asked for was also given, and when you finished fighting, you will delay things when you come back to Luoyang?
Who will go if you don't let your house go? How do you hide such a large team? If you don't take the waterway, you will be noticed on the land road at once, and the local people are not unclear about your family, ordinary people can't control it at all in the past, how can you fight a war if the logistics are unstable? ”
"What's more, this time in the past, you must borrow the power of your family to allocate grain and grass, your family in the past, how much movement is made, others will think it is a commercial behavior, change someone there to transfer it to try, Tubo will react immediately.
The most important thing is your family's organizational ability, the imperial court did not send other officials over, and when the war is together, it will all depend on your family's ability to turn around and transport, this is the result of the research of the emperor and several ministers, Luzhou where your family fought against disasters on the one hand, operated business on the one hand, and was responsible for people's livelihood, and there was no mistake at all.
If you want to complain, you will complain that your family's ability is too big, the emperor rarely praises people, but he praised your family alone, talking about logistics, it is none other than the Zhang family, with your family organized there, the court will save a lot of things. ”
Old man Yao also said at this time, don't say no, the Zhang family's ship is about to dock.
But Zhang Xiaobao was still not satisfied with this answer: "Then why don't you say it in advance?" ”
"Say it in advance, what if someone in your family doesn't control their emotions? Let others see it, isn't it a waste of all your efforts? Originally, it was not suitable for war now, the country has just stabilized, and it will take a while to recover, and I am the most opposed to war, but your family has helped the imperial court get a lot more taxes.
Also, your family and Li Xun also have a lot of money in their hands, even if the imperial court doesn't have time to raise it for a while, you can use your money to deal with it first. ”
Old man Yao looked very embarrassed when he said this, and he was indeed right, when he was the prime minister, he said that he could not fight, but now he supports war.
Zhang Xiaobao pondered for a while and said: "So, when it comes to the critical time, the grain and grass of the imperial court can't be allocated, so my family has to find a way, in case the money can't support it, my family has to take it out, if you lose, who is responsible?" ”
"Of course, it is the responsibility of the general in front to lose, it is he who fights, as long as your family's logistics supply is on the line." Old man Zhang finally found a chance to say something.
"And what about winning? Is it a general's credit? My family does logistics, and if I put money in, there will be nothing? And let's talk about it first, the logistics supply is a regular supply, if he needs a lot of oil to attack with fire, then my family doesn't care, my family is responsible for transporting grain, grass and ordnance to the first city to attack, now let's talk about how to calculate the delay. ”
Zhang Xiaobao asked again.
The three old men are embarrassed, where you look at me, I look at you, no one can speak, until Zhang Xiaobao has no choice but to be stared at by the old man Bi said:
"There is also merit for winning, but you can't give any rewards in the court, you can quietly compensate when your father changes places, this year's imperial examination, Zhang Wang's two Zhuangzi will be admitted a lot, as long as they reach the age, and they have indeed studied in the academy, it's okay, this has to write a letter to discuss, basically no problem, yes, no problem, remember not to show your stuff."
Zhang Xiaobao sat there and didn't answer directly, thought about leaving the position for a while, hurried back to his cabin, and said to the three old men when he came back: "Okay, my family has agreed to this condition, I will go tomorrow, and stop the boat in Jiangxia at night to rest." ”
