Section 509 Return to Dengzhou

Seeing the clear and green land in the distance, everyone cheered. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

After cheering, looking back, everyone looked at each other: "This boat, sit and sit back!" ā€

It was smooth sailing, and there was no big risk to come back from the country.

That's great!

So he confirmed the statement that Wei Xi is a big demon, he is in the army, the enemy does not dare to move, and even the Sea Dragon King has to take a detour!

The ancients went to sea, it was really to watch the sky to eat, the wind and waves came, but there was no weather radar, plus the ship was small, the navigation technology was not exquisite, everyone regarded the sea as a daunting way, such as the arrival of the Tang envoy sent by the Japanese people is one of the four.

Gao Chao said with admiration: "It is really luck to follow the general on the expedition!" ā€

Wei Xi shook his head and said hesitantly: "Hey, that's because they are not ready for battle!" ā€

"Preparing for war?"

"Yes, prepare for war!" Wei Xi instructed him as a master of the art of war: "Send troops to fight, and the victory in the battle depends on the preparation for war, the strength of the troops, as well as health and water storage.

Take our expedition to Tibet in the Western Regions as an example, in the desert, you can't afford not to consider storing water, and if you don't have water for everyone to drink, you will definitely lose.

In attacking Tibet, health is very important, and the large number of wounded and sick people will seriously drag down the army's action and combat effectiveness. In fact, the last time I was in Tibet, on the plateau, the non-combat attrition rate of the troops was very low, even lower than that of the local people in Tibet, and they thought it was incredible, saying how could we be so healthy, how could they not be defeated!

Do you know how many years I have been preparing to win the war on the plateau? ā€

"How many years?"

"I started the adaptation training for altitude sickness in the second year of Xianheng (671 AD)!"

"Oh, I have been preparing for seven or eight years (Yifeng four years (679) to destroy Tibet)." Gao Chao said sincerely: "This deal is not bad." ā€

"Take this crusade, I will prepare the marines, sea ships, route maps, supplies, etc., and I will start preparing when I have the ability to exert influence on Dengzhou." Wei Xi told him: "I have also prepared a meteorological bureau to record weather changes!" ā€

"Am I also part of your plan?" Gao Chao asked.

"Yes, a very important link!" Wei Xi admitted.

"So what's your next plan?" Gao Chao asked relying on the fact that he and Wei Xi were already very familiar.

Wei Xi didn't reply, the two of them were talking on the deck of the ship, his eyes looking west.

"Expedition to the West?" Speak the answer superbly.

"All the way west!" Wei Xi's eyes were shining and said: "I want the arrows shot from our Great Wall to reach the clock tower in Paris!" (Paris was the capital of the Kingdom of France at the time)

"Paris?" The name of this place is superb and I asked in surprise when I heard it for the first time.

"It was the capital of a country in Europa, far from us...... Far away! Wei Xi explained.

"And what are you doing now?" Gao Chao asked curiously.

"My old uncle Wei Shiwei is now the protector of the Western Regions Metropolis, and my outer chamber Tang Tian are all preparing for this! Prepare routes, personnel, horses, weapons, and food and grass! Wei Xi didn't hide it from him.

"It's amazing!" Gao Chao sighed: "Ordinary people see one step at a time, and famous generals take one step at a time to see three steps. ā€

He said to Wei Xi: "The great cause of the general, I am willing to follow it!" ā€

Wei Xi was overjoyed and said: "I have Wenren (superb word) to help, like a tiger with wings!" ā€

Gao Chao officially entered the scene, became a senior intelligence officer, and began to contribute to Wei Xi's western expedition, hoping to get benefits here and promote his viscount position to a higher level.

It's inevitable, there is such a good opportunity not to participate, fool!

……

Wei Xi's fleet came back a little off course, appearing on the surface of Laizhou, where the port could not moor big ships, but it was the territory of the Tang Dynasty, so he sailed along the coast.

Laizhou sent a large number of supply ships, bringing them fresh water, fruits, vegetables, meat, and even a wine banquet, making a lot of money!

Finally entered the sea off Dengzhou, and when they saw the familiar hometown land, people cheered.

Countless big ships and small boats are out in empty nests to welcome the triumphant return of the Datang sailors!

The sailors and marines who went out on the expedition were originally the children of the coastal people, and there were many people who knew each other.

Wei Xi smiled, and when he returned to the cabin, he had to avoid suspicion.

Others can accept cheers, and he, the manager, will eat the bullet badge if he does this.

There are some things that cannot be done in feudal society, for example, you give disaster relief porridge, ordinary gentry or nothing, but if you are in a high position to engage in charity, it will arouse suspicion, and the ruler seriously suspects that you want to buy people's hearts and minds, and what do you want to do! Want to take it a step further?

When you return from a big victory, you have to keep a low profile, a low profile!

Otherwise, not to mention that you are the royal son-in-law, dare to threaten her throne, Wu Zetian even dares to attack his son, and the son-in-law will still starve you to death!

Wei Xi is a human being in two lifetimes, and he knows this tone too well, and the companion of Special M is like a tiger, for the sake of the throne, the court will turn its face like a book, so he has always been very low-key in the people (not low-key in the army, after all, he wants to collect the heart of the army).

……

Stepping on the land of Dengzhou, the high-ranking officials who greeted him on behalf of the imperial court surprised Wei Xi slightly: "Guo Shangshu? ā€

It is the head of the household department that Guo is waiting to be raised, and he did not respond reservedly.

"I'm going to call Guo Xianggong!" An official next to him said: "Guo Hubu has been promoted by His Majesty to the third rank of Tongzhongshu. (Prime Minister)"

"Yo!" Wei Xi twisted his face, stepped back slightly, made an exaggerated look at him carefully, and then arched his hand: "Congratulations!" Congratulations! ā€

"That's the two saints, and it's also stained with your light!" Guo Zhiju replied: "I am promoted, you return triumphantly, rejoice!" Rejoice! ā€

Speaking of which, he has been able to continue to get benefits because of the great success of recommending Wei Xi, and has been firmly supporting Wei Xi, Wei Xi's victory naturally has his share, this time Jing Dongling's coffin was sent back to China first, ready to have Wei Xi's return to the antithesis, the imperial court then promoted Guo Zhiju to the third grade of the same Zhongshu sect, on behalf of the imperial court to arrive in Dengzhou early to welcome Wei Xi.

After a few words of greeting, Guo Zhiju couldn't wait to ask: "I said, when you come back, I will personally move the silver box for you and put it into the warehouse, how much silver did you bring back when you came back this time?" ā€

The previous repatriation table said that there were three million, but how much can be transported back has to be told the real number, after all, the government is very likely to "float" when transporting things on the water, if it is one-tenth of the floating, Guo Beiju feels that it is normal.

"A total of four million taels of silver, silver, and copper were supplied to the imperial court!" Wei Xi raised four fingers and said.

"Four million taels!" Guo Zhiju smiled and said: "In this way, you can block many people's mouths!" ā€

"Someone impeached me?" Wei Xi was keenly authentic.

Winning the war earned money and face for the country, and also gave people impeachment, and it is reasonable!

The surrounding officers heard it and cursed one after another, and Shi Wanchao even shouted that whoever dares to impeach the general of my family, I will burn that person's home and give Wang Xiaojie a drink to stop him.

"The Japanese people crossed the sea to Chang'an to sue the emperor, knocked on the drum, the queen of heaven saw it, dragged it, and then the three monks among them burned themselves on Chang'an Suzaku Street, the whole dynasty was a sensation, and the imperial history Zhuang Jingzhi took the opportunity to impeach you for eight major crimes, it was Tang Zhibai!"

"it!"

Everyone gasped, sure enough, the literati were shameless, the pen was like a sword, Qin Zhiwu Anjun rose in vain, Changping killed 400,000 Zhao people in the first battle, although he made great contributions to the country, but he ended up with a reputation of "brutal and unkind", and everyone tried to avoid this reputation in the later art of war, such as Wuhou Zhuge Liang burned 30,000 rattan armor soldiers in the Snake Valley, and he was also compassionate.

If you are afraid, you should not act excessively, it is the right way, and the opinion of the people of the time is also. (To be continued.) )
