Li Ang thought that Dong Yanguang, who had a gap with him, would not attend his celebration banquet.

Unexpectedly, when the deputy envoy of Longyou Jiedu arrived at the celebration banquet for more than half of the ceremony, Shi Shiran walked in. The moment his gaze collided with Leon, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Wang Zhongsi, who was sitting at the top, said lightly: "Deputy Envoy Dong is late, and he has to punish himself with three cups." ”

Dong Yanguang replied neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Ambassador Wang has an order, how dare Dong disobey, come and pour wine!" ”

The tooth soldiers hurriedly came over to pour wine, Dong Yanguang was not ambiguous, he dried three bowls in a row, and said to Wang Zhonghei: "Is Ambassador Wang satisfied?" ”

Dong Yanguang's arrival, although there were no outrageous words and deeds, the atmosphere in the banquet was inexplicably cold.

Perhaps, no matter where it is, there is naturally a competitive relationship between the first and second in command.

Almost all the main officials in the yali came early, but Dong Yanguang, the second-in-command, came late. In the absence of any important military affairs, Dong Yanguang's belated arrival was somewhat disrespectful to Wang Zhonghe.

Wang Zhongsi is brave and resolute, silent, coupled with many years of experience as a border commander, his personality is more calm and calm, in the face of Dong Yanguang's humble and arrogant attitude and quite targeted questioning, he just said indifferently: "Deputy Envoy Dong, please sit down." ”

Dong Yanguang brushed his thick black beard and replied: "This banquet is set up for Li Bingcao to celebrate his achievements, Dong is a step late, and he has not yet toasted Li Bingcao, how dare he return to his seat?" ”

After Dong Yanguang finished speaking, he ignored Wang Zhongsi's reaction, picked up a wine jug and strode towards Li Ang.

He snapped the flask to Leon for a few bites. said without yin or yang: "Li Bingcao led the army deep behind the enemy and broke through Tibet. There are many rumors about capturing the enemy country alive. said that Li Bingcao was the reincarnation of the champion Hou, it seems that the previous envoy was blind, but he didn't know that it was the champion Hou in person! ”

Li Ang stood up, looked at Dong Yanguang levelly, and replied calmly with a calm face: "What did Deputy Envoy Dong say, if it wasn't for Deputy Envoy Dong sending a subordinate to reconnoiter the enemy's situation, the subordinate would not have picked up this bargain by mistake, and the subordinate would have thanked Deputy Envoy Dong a lot." The lower official respects the deputy envoy of Dong! ”

Leon raised his glass. Dong Yanguang waved his hand and said, "Slow down, speaking of this, the envoy remembered it." The first task entrusted to Li Bingcao was to repair the collapsed beacon tower on Chiling, I wonder how Li Bingcao's task was completed? ”

As the so-called military order is like a mountain, Li Ang was ordered to repair the beacon tower, and there was no action at all, from this point of view, he disobeyed the military order. Everyone's eyes were focused on Leon at once. We'll see what he does.

Li Ang replied indifferently: "Deputy Envoy Dong originally gave the subordinate two tasks, one is to repair the beacon tower in Chiling, and the other is to reconnoiter the enemy's situation. Deputy Envoy Dong did not say anything. ”

Li Ang seemed to be prepared, took out the documents that Dong Yanguang gave him at the beginning, and handed them to Dong Yanguang. On the one hand, he said: "Since Deputy Envoy Dong did not explain the priority, after the lower official arrived in Chiling. You can only prioritize according to the actual situation. At that time, the lower officials inquired about the news that Dazarugon was assembling the Tibetan army. It seems that there is a sneak attack on my Longyou;

In order to find out the truth, the lower officials could only postpone the repair of the beacon tower, personally led people to conduct in-depth reconnaissance, and finally found out that Dazha Lugong was really going to invade Longyou.

While sending people back to deliver the news, so that our army could take precautions in advance, the lower officials made every effort to harass the rear of Tibet, making it difficult for the Tibetan army to fight with peace of mind. Judging from the actual results, Xia Guan felt that he should be regarded as completing the task assigned by Deputy Envoy Dong.

As for repairing the beacon tower, Dazarugong's 50,000 troops have crossed the Chiling to engage our army, and at this time, Deputy Envoy Dong insisted that the subordinate officials complete the task of repairing the beacon tower. ”

Li Ang's reply was reasonable and responsible, so that Dong Yanguang couldn't find fault with it, if he continued to make things difficult for Li Ang on this issue, his face would be too ugly.

Dong Yanguang suffocated slightly, and then sneered: "Li Bingcao's use of soldiers is really elusive, just like Li Bingcao's life experience, weird and unpredictable!" ”

Dong Yanguang had something to say, which once again attracted everyone's attention. Li Ang replied: "Deputy Envoy Dong might as well say it directly, why beat around the bush? ”

Dong Yanguang picked up the wine jug, took a sip of it to himself, and said: "If it is said that because Dazaru Gong's 50,000 army invaded Longyou, resulting in the emptiness of the rear, let Li Bingcao lead fifty people as if they were in a no-man's land, it may make sense; But then, after the princess Zhuoma of the Subi tribe arrived with 5,000 cavalry, Li Bingcao was still at ease, which couldn't help but make people wonder.

This envoy has been in Longyou for many years, and the Tubo soldiers and horses have gone through nearly 100 battles, this Zhuoma princess also knows a little about the envoy, although she is a woman, but she has led the army to fight for many years, quite wise, and rarely defeated.

This time, she led an army of 5,000 to besiege Li Bingcao, but was played around by Li Bingcao's fifty people, and the envoy couldn't help but wonder, is it Li Bingcao who uses soldiers like a god, or is this Princess Zhuoma deliberately indulgent Li Bingcao? ”

Li Ang raised his eyebrows and said, "What did Deputy Envoy Dong say?" ”

Dong Yanguang suddenly took a step forward, stared at Li Ang tightly and asked, "Li Bingcao was only naturalized in Shangxi Village, Xipu County, Yizhou Prefecture, Jiannan Province in the spring of last year, and before that, no one knew where you came from." Originally, you were captured by the defenders of Yerong City as a Tubo spy in Baijiling, on the border between Jiannan and Tubo, and a golden knife was found from you, and the golden knife was engraved with the words 'Subi Zhuoma' in Tubo script, Li Bingcao, the envoy is right, right? ”

Li Ang was secretly surprised, where did Dong Yanguang know this, and even knew exactly what words were engraved on the golden knife on his body in Tubo script. Li Ang couldn't help but glance at Wu Xuan, because in his opinion, in the entire Longyou, I'm afraid only Wu Xuan knows his own details.

Impossible, Wu Xuan has always been by his side, and he has absolutely no chance to have any dealings with Dong Yanguang. What the hell is going on?

"Li Bingcao, you mean, where did the golden knife on your body come from? Could it be a gift from the princess of the Subi tribe, Princess Dolma? If that's the case, then it can be explained, why you can play her around with fifty people this time, the envoy is not wrong, right? ”

The civil and military officials at the table couldn't help but be in an uproar, looking at Li Ang one by one, and turning their heads to each other. Thinking about it carefully, Dong Yanguang's suspicion is not without a little reason, Li Ang brought fifty people this time, and he was able to break many tribes in Tubo in a row, and that's it, he even broke the important town of Tubo Fuqicheng, captured Tubo and Mangbu Branch, and was safe and sound under the encirclement and suppression of the 5,000 army of the princess of the Subi tribe;

These things are really amazing, beyond the imagination of normal people, and people can't help but wonder if they are real. Could it be that there really is some hidden secret in this?

Only Wang Zhongsi was silent at the table, quietly watching the development of the situation.

"Why didn't Li Bingcao speak? Aren't you a good speaker? Where were you before you appeared in White Chicken Ridge? Where did it come from? In a year, you went from a person of unknown origin to a large amount of money to get the Yizhou Township tribute quota, and after entering Beijing in October, you even made a lot of money, just to the imperial envoy Yang Zhao amounted to one million dollars, right? How did you come to be this new science and technology master? ”

Li Ang finally retorted: "Deputy Envoy Dong, the lower officials think that your words are insulting the wisdom of my Tang Dynasty Son of Heaven and the wisdom of all the ministers in the court!" ”

Dong Yanguang took another step forward, and suddenly shouted: "Li Ang! You don't give the envoy a big hat! Do you dare to take out the golden knife on your body in front of everyone and let everyone see it? ”

At this time, even Hua Qiu and the others were a little hesitant. Because they had really seen that Li Ang had a golden knife on his body, and Li Ang's conversation with the princess Dolma by the river, although he didn't hear anything unusual, the expression of the princess Dolma was somewhat unusual.

Moreover, after meeting, Li Ang really helped everyone all the way to skillfully avoid the pursuit of Princess Zhuoma's 5,000-strong army, and went east to Xiaoxiangshan very smoothly.

At that time, everyone didn't think much about it, but after Dong Yanguang mentioned it, they felt that this process was indeed a little unusual, although they did not suspect that Li Ang was a Tibetan spy, but they were always a little curious.

The fiery gaze of everyone fell on Li Ang, who was unmoved, and said calmly: "Xia Guan knows what Deputy Envoy Dong is thinking. Yes, I do have such a golden knife on me, but what does that mean?

If Deputy Envoy Dong was a fine worker sent to Tubo by the Tang Dynasty, would you bring the Tibetan soldiers and horses back to slaughter the city of the Tang Dynasty? Will the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty be captured and handed over to Tibet? ”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but nod their heads, if Li Ang was a Tibetan spy, how could he take the Tang army to slaughter and ambush Qicheng and capture Tubo Da Mangbuzhi, which also directly caused Dazaru Gong's 50,000 troops to throw down a large amount of baggage and withdraw their troops overnight.

If Li Ang is really an undercover spy sent by Tubo to Datang, then for Datang, the more such spies, the better.

As a result, Dong Yanguang sneered: "Yes, you are not a Tubo spy, but you are a spies of the Subi Department!" You have to borrow the hand of the Tang Dynasty to weaken Tubo and divide the Tibetan monarchs and ministers, so that the Subi Department can have the opportunity to collect the profits of the fishermen. ”

Dong Yanguang's novel argument once again made Xi Shangwen Wu in an uproar.

Even Li Ang couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and finally he couldn't help laughing loudly: "Deputy Envoy Dong's whimsical idea is really a crime to add, why bother with it!" This time, I led the army deep into Tibet and killed more than 10,000 people, including many Suvi tribesmen. In the Tianjun Mountain, the five hundred pursuers of Princess Nadolma were killed by me and lost their armor, and there were not many who fled back in embarrassment.

Although I, Li Ang, dare not speak of merit, but there is no merit and hard work, those warriors who were born and died with me, threw their lives in Tibet, how can their merits be erased? With these hard facts in front of us, can they be offset by a coincidentally obtained golden knife?

Deputy Envoy Dong, don't you just want to put me to death and take away my thousand-mile horse? I might as well tell you the truth, even if I don't want that horse, you are far from qualified to have it. If you don't believe it, try it, the news will be transmitted back to Chang'an, and you will be guaranteed to be sentenced to death! ”

Buzz, everyone at the banquet was amazed! Li Ang dared to say such cruel words in front of all the officials, it was really earth-shattering, and it was extremely shocking! .
