Let's say that the main force of the Tang Army was stationed in the Hungarian steppe under the leadership of Wei Xi, where the water and grass were abundant, and it was very beneficial to raise cattle, horses and sheep.

Speaking of the Tang people's infrastructure maniac ability, they actually settled everyone before winter, and even built a covered livestock pen for livestock!

Not only that, but they were also busy making the last vote, dispatching troops, and returning before the snow drove back a cart full of all kinds of supplies and crying female slaves, plus a string of male slaves!

If you don't graze or fight, you really have nothing to do, so you can build roads and water conservancy!

The "new annexed army" who had returned to obedience earlier had never seen such a diligent race before, but now they saw with their own eyes the Tang people's fighting spirit of "seizing the day", and admired it, and said that the victory of the Tang people was not a fluke!

They know that many of these Tang people are very rich and high-ranking officials, but they are still so desperate... Their top leader, Wei Xi, was also not idle, doing two things, one was to exercise, and the other was to give full play to his expertise as a civil engineer, making urban planning and road and bridge engineering drawings, and he was busy every day.

……

"Is the prince in there?" In the evening, Chief of Staff Jiang Zhi went to the palace to ask to see Wei Xi, and during the day, Wei Xi went out, and Jiang Zhi waited for him to come back to see him.

The chamberlain reported to the inside, and soon came out and said, "Lord Wang, please go in!" ”

Accompanied by two long-legged female soldiers, Jiang Zhi walked inside.

The protective force of this palace is divided into two layers, outside the palace is Wei Xi's troops, and inside is Queen Tang Tian's female soldiers, and there is only one man in the entire palace.

Speaking of which, there are many long-legged and good-looking beauties among Tang Tian's female soldiers (after all, these female soldiers are pleasing to the eye, even if they are the hostess), and there are even as many as twenty people, Tang Tian also said, which female soldier Wei Xi fancies, fortunately for them, she has no opinion, but Wei Xi is responsible.

But Wei Xi didn't ask for any of them, even if the beauties were picked by him. (PS: Now Princess Taiping has also let go of him, which maid does he like, let him go, Princess Taiping allowed them to be called sisters, but Wei Xi still didn't want it)

Entering a hall, seeing Wei Xi looking at a letter, he seemed to be a little pensive, and Jiang Shi couldn't help but be curious, what else is worth making Wei Xi trouble?

He did not report his affairs first, but asked, "Where did the letter come from?" ”

As Wei Xi's chief of general staff, under the situation of the world, Jiang Zhi is actually in charge of everything, whether it is public or private affairs.

"The Princess's letter, she says that next autumn Your Majesty will be happy with Constantinople!" Wei Xi handed the letter to Jiang Shi, and he naturally took it.

After reading it, he said, "This is a great thing!" ”

"Labor and management want to bulldoze the Franks next year, set the overall situation of Europa, and in three more years, everyone can be blessed and return to the East!" Wei Xi said unhappily.

Autumn is the best season to enter the army, Princess Taiping and her mother came, all plans were disrupted, Wei Xi must welcome her, a waste of time!

Back to the East, it is the good man who does not come, the West Expedition is over, the main force returns to the East, the army is stationed in the Hexi Corridor, looking at Jingluo, even Wu Zetian will be shocked three times a day, see what happened to her and her ministers!

But Jiang Zhi had a different opinion, he said: "I'm afraid that Frank has to fight, it's not so easy to conquer!" ”

He brought an update: "The two Tang caravans and the three tribal caravans we sent did not come back with any information after entering the territory of the Franks, and the scouts sent said that they saw the Franks blocking the border, and we did not attack them before, did not do anything to anger them, and it seems that they were on their own. He spread his hands and laughed at himself: "I know our wolf ambitions!" ”

"Therefore, they have been on guard, it is likely that it will take two or three years to attack the Franks, so it is just right, Your Highness, you will go to receive Your Majesty next year, and when you attack Paris the year after tomorrow, you can come back!"

Paris is a "championship" with great influence, and the generals still leave it to Wei Xi to fight, so as not to shock the master.

"The old woman is not a beauty!" Wei Xi said stupidly: "It's better to fight!" ”

"You won't get on it if there are beautiful women!" Jiang Zhi said disapprerovingly, and pointed out: "You can't do everything for you, you have to give your brothers meat to eat!" ”

"Alright, alright!" Wei Xi lay down comfortably on the back chair and said, "You have to think about taking over the car!" This matter is more important than attacking the Frankish kingdom! ”

"Of course, I'll make a plan first, you might as well return to Constantinople before the snow falls, and make a good calculation with the princess!" Jiang Zhi suggested.

Wu Zetian's western tour is actually a major event, and it is also a rare opportunity, we must make full use of this opportunity to fully show the demeanor of the Western Mansion and the Western Army, so that Wu Zetian and the ministers can appreciate the talents of Wei Xi and Princess Taiping!

Is that

It will be very beneficial for the future, not even to show it to Wu Zetian, but also to let the ministers know what Wei Xi and Princess Taiping have done!

In fact, Jiang Zhi came to Wei Xi to report some things, but after hearing that he was about to "take over", he immediately turned his mind to this aspect, took out a pen and paper, and was busy writing.

The first thing is important, Yizhi!

Wei Xi's expedition to the west was under the banner of the word "Tang", and Tang flags were planted everywhere, claiming that he was the successor of the Tang Dynasty.

The mountain is high and the emperor is far away, he is bright and upright, and the bullets in the divine capital are flying all over the sky, and they all call Wei Xi the biggest traitor, but Wei Xi and Princess Taiping are not afraid at all!

The two of them, as long as one is outside the gate, the other party can't catch them all, and the one inside the gate will be fine... If something happens, everyone will die together, and the people of the Wu Party, Zhang Party, and Li Party can only talk about it, and who is not afraid of death!

Wu Zetian is also helpless, as long as he kills one, the other will rebel, even if it is a daughter, he dares to oppose his mother, Princess Taiping led an angry army like water, how to resist!

But Wu Zetian came this time, he had to give her face, what others said, and what she saw with her own eyes, it was different, she had to change her banner, anyway, her subordinates knew what was going on!

The second thing is to arrange for Wu Zetian to visit, there are many places to see, Wei Xi called the maid to send a map, and Jiang Zhi measured it.

Korla can be seen, which is close to Bosten Lake and is extremely well developed;

The Ili River Basin can also be seen, it is the hometown of the Tuqishi people, let Wu Zetian see, what is the complete sinicization, there is no trace of the tribe there at all.

Then there is the birthplace of the Lite people with the surname of Zhaowu;

The Issyk-Kul area is also well developed, but unfortunately it is Tang Tian's place, Wu Zetian is not interested in her, so she has to get stuck.

Then there is the Iranian Plateau, which is a key area for development, with rich iron, coal, and copper resources, and the establishment of large-scale smelting enterprises, which is an important industrial center of gravity in Xifu, providing a steady stream of arms for the Western Army.

Especially since tea trees are planted there!

And there are many monuments on the Iranian plateau, which has the benefit of visiting.

Then to the two river basins, it has become the land of fish and rice.

And "if there is a heaven on earth, Damascus will be in it, and if heaven is in heaven, Damascus will be on a par with it." "Damascus!

Egypt can also be seen, the Nile and the pyramids!

Finally, there is the monarch Tancienburg, the pearl of Eastern Rome, which was picked by the Tang people, and it is not too much destruction, many places are protected, and it is definitely worth visiting!

……

Wei Xi and Jiang Zhi nodded their fingers together, looking back at the conquered places, both of them were proud: We have done great things!
