Xu Ping didn't sleep well this night, and he always felt that there was a sound of fighting outside the tent. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info just closed his eyes a few times, and he woke up from his sleep, opened his eyes, but found that the surroundings were quiet, and there was no movement at all.

From being less than 20 years old when he arrived in Yongzhou, more than ten years have passed now, and Xu Ping's mood has slowly changed. It's not just about age, it's about the change in experience. At that time, I didn't realize the weight of the burden on my shoulders, I dared to fight, I didn't have any worries, and breaking my toe was just an accident, not my intention.

Now it's different, the commander of the side all the way, in charge of the military and government of several states, with tens of thousands of troops under his command, can decide life and death in a word, and power also brings responsibility. The party item is not a toe, the toe is just a disease of ringworm and scabies, and the party item is a problem of the heart. History has made it clear that this small northwestern state eventually brought great disasters to the Central Plains Dynasty.

Economic development can bring about the rapid development of military strength, but it does not necessarily bring about the rapid development of military strength, and many economically prosperous forces in history have been wiped out by the inconspicuous and small backward forces in the surrounding areas. Is it that if the economy is prosperous, the military will definitely decline? There is no such thing in the world. Most of them are still out of the selfishness of politicians, either to abolish the Great Wall and abolish the armed forces, or to lure wolves into the house for personal ambitions and play with fire and self-immolation.

There is no system in the world that can manage a thousand years, and all Xu Ping can do is to extinguish the immediate threat and leave a reasonable military system. Even if there are repetitions in the middle, as long as the system is still there, the principles of the system are still there, and the force of the Central Plains Dynasty is there.

When Xu Ping was tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, Tan Hu suddenly sang loudly outside.

Xu Ping sat up and asked, "It's already late at night, what's the urgency?" ”

Tan Hu said in a loud voice: "Commander, except for the people in the camp who are close to him, he seems to have a plan, and the general will arrest him!" ”

Hearing this, Xu Ping sat up suddenly. This time to Yu Zang Huama, it is a mental calculation or no intention, if he is alert, it will be difficult to do. If it is a spy from Yuzang Huama, whether it is a spy or not, it will be very troublesome. The fact that he sent people to show that he was wary of Qinzhou was not the style of fighting in the Tibetan Army.

Dressed up, Xu Ping said inside: "You bring people to my tent - also, go and call Wang Kai and Li Zhang!" ”

Tan Hu agreed, turned around and went.

Xu Ping packed up and stopped, and when he arrived at the front tent, he saw a man in his thirties, escorted by his own soldiers. The man was dressed as a typical Fanqiang, with a weathered face, and nine times out of ten he was a herdsman grazing cattle and sheep, looking at Xu Ping curiously.

Sitting down in the handsome seat, Xu Ping didn't speak, just looked at the man and slowly sorted out his thoughts.

After a while, Tan Hu brought Wang Kai and Li Zhang into the account and saluted Xu Ping together.

Let Wang Kai and Li Zhang separate the two sides, Xu Ping said in a deep voice: "Tan Hu has already told the two of you?" ”

The two crossed hands together: "Yu Jieshuai, I have already said it!" ”

Xu Ping nodded, looked at the man in front of him, and asked in a deep voice, "You tell you the truth, who is it?" Where did it come from? Why are you here? Why do you come to peep at my handsome tent late at night? Recruited from the truth, if there is a sentence that is not true, the military stick is waiting! ”

The man raised his head and looked at Xu Ping, and didn't speak for a long time. It wasn't until Xu Ping was a little impatient that he said, "Seeing that you are young, are you really a border marshal sent to Qinzhou by the imperial court?" ”

Tan Hu shouted: "Jie Shuai asks you, answer honestly!" Don't ask questions and ask questions, and mess around! ”

Xu Ping raised his hand to signal Tan Hu and said to the man: "I am Qin Feng's handsome all the way, answer my words!" ”

The man was originally thrown to the ground by Tan Hu, lying there, and when he heard this, he suddenly turned around, knelt up, and bowed his hand to Xu Ping: "Back to the big handsome, the little Zhang Gou'er is a member of the Zhang family of the Shrine Valley." A few days ago, the chief of Xishi City, Yu Zanghua Ma, passed on the arrow grammar and asked the surrounding Tibetan troops to go south to invade Qinzhou. Our Zhang family is the end of Hexi, how can we be willing to follow these Qiang to betray the imperial court? The clan heard that the marshal had been in Qinzhou for a year, and he was prosperous, so he asked the small intersect to come to Qinzhou to report the news of the imminent invasion of the Tibetan Ministry. Take precautions early and don't be caught off guard by these fanhus! Originally, the small one was in Qinzhou, who wanted to ask the handsome man who went out of the city for autumn hunting, and was not in the city. The military situation was urgent, and the little one didn't dare to delay, so he asked all the way to find here. ”

Listening to Zhang Gou'er's words, Xu Ping's face slowly relaxed. As one of the six valleys in Hexi, the Niche Valley is dominated by the Momo tribe. There are indeed Han tribes such as the Zhang family, the Xing family, and the lazy family in the last tribe of the Shrine Valley, and after the Dang Xiang entered and occupied Lanzhou, some of them crossed the Mabitshan Mountain to the north of Didao, that is, those tribes that accepted the blind felt, and some of them remained near Lanzhou. These tribes and the forces of the Yu-Tibetan tribe are intertwined, and the Yu-Tibetan Huama army can't hide from them.

Xu Ping has his own sources, and the news brought by Zhang Gou'er is not of much use. However, Xu Ping still asked Zhang Gou'er to stand up and speak, and asked Tan Hu to send someone to fetch him a cup of tea to suppress the shock.

Although the last tribe is mainly after the Han people, they have always been regarded as one of the Tibetan tribes, and the Han people of the Fan Dynasty are no longer regarded as Han people, not their own people. Xu Ping will not be naïve to think that after they are Han people, they will turn their hearts to the imperial court, and the Han people will translate Hu'er language, but they will scold the Han people to the city, which is very common in the northwest area.

Xu Ping's trust in the Hexi Tibetan tribe, whether it is the Momo people in them or the Tubo tribe, is mainly because they have a deep hatred for the party. Originally, in the six valleys of Hexi, the tribe tent tribe was mostly non-Mo, when the Tubo and Dangxiang Qiang united, it changed the situation that the early Tubo people were dominant in the upper class, and the later leader was the Tubo tribe headed by Pan Luozhi. When the party opened up to the west, Yuan Hao co-opted the party Xiang Qiang in the Hexi Liugu Fan Department, and these party Xiang Qiang set up an ambush to trap the leader Pan Luozhi, and the Hexi Liugu Fan Department was dispersed, and the party occupied Xiliang and Lanzhou. With these grievances, the Tubo tribes and the people of Hexi have a deep grudge against the party, and it is they who went south to Hehuang that made Yuan Hao unable to annex this area for a long time.

After Zhang Gou'er drank the tea, Xu Ping asked about the gathering of the Tibetan Department by the Yuzanghua Mali grammar.

Zhang Gou'er said: "Our Zhang family is now divided into many settlements, and there are not many tribes in which I live. Now the wind in the area of Mabitshan is very tight, and Yuzang Huama is blocking the news, and the small ones don't know much, but they are going to commit Qinzhou in the autumn and winter of this year. ”

Xu Ping nodded: "It's enough to have this news." You can rest assured in Qinzhou, I will arrange to face Yuzang Huama, no need to worry. - Tan Hu, arrange for this Zhang Gou'er to follow you first, wait until you return to Qinzhou City, and then hand it over to the general judgment for placement! ”

Tan Hu promised, but Zhang Gou'er said: "How can this be made? Marshal, since the news has been delivered, I should hurry back to the clan and report to the people in the clan. When the Yu-Tibetan Ministry sends troops, our clan can cover up from the back and help the court break the enemy! ”

Xu Ping waved his hand and said gently: "Marching and fighting is naturally a matter of the imperial court, and there is no need to work for you." After you were Han Chinese, you were in Longyou, and you had to be in the company of Fanqiang, so the court was sorry for you. Now that the party is in rebellion, the court wants to go through the right side of Long, you just have to guard the headquarters and wait for the court soldiers and horses. When he returned to the rule of the Central Plains, he spoke Chinese again, learned Chinese customs, recognized his ancestors and returned to his ancestors, and he was still a good citizen under the rule of the imperial court. ”

Zhang Gou'er listened, knelt on the ground, and saluted Xu in parallel: "The little ones are looking forward to it day and night, just thinking that one day they can return to the Central Plains and become Han people." The ancestors of the little ones were also good citizens of the imperial court, and they were not suitable for being plundered by Tibet, and they practiced Tibetan customs and spoke Tibetan language, just to survive. If you can return to the Central Plains, who wants to do this? Now it looks like this, it really insults the ancestors! ”

"Soon, as long as you endure it for a few more days, the army will go north to Lanzhou, and you can naturally return to the Central Plains."

Xu Ping said, motioning to Tan Hu to take Zhang Gou'er out and settle down.

When Tan Hu and Zhang Gou and I went out, Li Zhang said: "Jie Shuai, the news brought by this Zhang Gou is not of much use, and there is no need to be too kind to him." Fan Qiang has no shame, beware of his revenge. ”

Xu Ping said: "When we pass through the area of Hehuang, we must always have some of our own people, and we can't kill all the Tibetan tribes." Regardless of whether it can be done or not, too many killings and pokes will also hurt the peace of the heavens, and it is not the way to long-term peace and stability. To fight a war is to make more people on your side and fewer people on the enemy's side. Therefore, we must remember that our enemy is the party, and anyone who is willing to help us fight the party is our own people, and those who help the party fight us are the enemy. Although the news brought by Zhang Gou'er is not worth mentioning, he took the risk to come to Qinzhou to report the news, which shows that he regards the party as an enemy, is our person, and it is natural to give him favors. Moreover, we exterminated the Yuzang Huama tribe, or with the help of these local tribes to stabilize the place. ”

Wang Kai said: "Since the festival commander wants to use these tribes, why don't you send Zhang Gou'er back?" Although their Tibetan tribes are small, if they can unite and take advantage of the Yuzang flower hemp to send troops, the rear will be empty, and they will be able to cause some chaos. ”

Xu Ping looked at Wang Kai and Li Zhang, and was silent for a while: "To tell the truth, I don't dare to believe that Zhang Gou'er is from the Zhang family, and he is here to report to us." If he is a person sent by Yuzang Huama, under the pretense of this set of arguments, letting him go back will cause a lot of trouble. Therefore, people should stay in Qinzhou, and when the battle is over, it is naturally clear whether it is true or false when they arrive at the Western Envoy City. Again, this time we are fighting against the party, these Tibetan tribes who are willing to submit to the imperial court, it is okay to report the news, try not to use them to fight. Originally, we defeated the party members to save them from fire and water and let them help them fight, and the taste changed. No matter how many gifts are given to them at that time, they will also take it for granted, which is not conducive to future governance. ”
