The room had been messy at first, with coffee tables, stools, and other objects toppling to the ground as if they had just been burglarized. plus a few pieces of clothing littered on the floor, the whole scene of desolation and obscenity. Xue Chongxun treated Li Yixun's princess like this, and he subconsciously understood that it was a crime, but there was no law and no person to restrain him, so he became more and more bold in doing nonsense.

Gong Shi who was sitting at the table was angry, but her dissatisfaction at this time was not because Xue Chongxun was rude to her, but because she was pinched by Xue Chongxun and forcibly pulled back to reality when she was addicted.

Gong whispered, "Can you stop pinching me?" ”

Xue Chongxun said in his heart: Seeing you sitting on the table lifelessly, holding back and not giving any reaction, you have to "teach" it.

He said, "It depends on your watch." ”

"You've got your way, what more are you going to do?" Gong said.

Xue Chongxun shook his head and said, "Don't grit your teeth and endure it, you have to scream a few times if you are satisfied, right?" ”

"I won't!" Gong blushed and tilted his head.

Xue Chongxun's movements did not stop, he was very good at talking and panting: "When the time comes, you beg me not to stop or something, or to raise your waist a little ......"

Gong couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Am I that kind of shameless? You are in vain as the prince and nobleman of the family, you are really a shameless debaucher! ”

Xue Chongxun was stunned, and a trace of anger appeared in his heart when he was scolded like this. Gong Shi also saw the annoyance on his face, and she instinctively felt afraid, at this time, Xue Chongxun's image was completely a villain who did nothing evil in her heart.

But Xue Chongxun's anger quickly subsided, and he was a little interested...... This kind of thing depends on people, it seems that this Gong family in front of him is a person who believes in etiquette, and it will be very difficult for her to open up and do very unreasonable things. The thought of wasting his time on this unimportant woman made him lose his mind. Then he stopped doing any tricks, and let go of her after Gong's desire was a little rude, and then walked to the bronze mirror to tidy up his clothes.

Gong pulled the placket to block the torn collar, squatted pitifully on the edge of the table, his arms folded on his knees, and finally couldn't help sobbing.

After Xue Chongxun got dressed, he picked up the coat on the ground and walked up to her and draped it on her back. Gong Shi suddenly looked up at him.

Xue Chongxun had already opened the door latch and walked out without looking back, and a cold air suddenly hit his face, spring is coming, but the temperature in the northern part of Guanzhong is still relatively low.

…… He walked out of the cave door of Zhang's inner house, walked along the eaves to the temporary lobby, and was when he met a green-clothed scribe, who came up and bent down and said, "Lord, the Ming princes in the lobby are looking for you." ”

Xue Chongxun ignored him, went to the lobby exquisitely, and saw that Wang Changling and other staff members and henchmen were waiting there. Seeing that Xue Chongxun was busy retreating, Wang Changling instructed a servant: "Watch at the gate, and no one who is not invited will not be allowed to enter." ”

"What's wrong?" Xue Chongxun was a little surprised when he saw this battle.

Wang Changling took out a letter, the envelope had been opened, and it was estimated that the staff had read it before...... Wang Changling has the right to open all kinds of official documents under Xue Chongxun's name, which were authorized to him by Xue Chongxun himself.

"A secret letter from the city of the east." Wang Changling said with a stern face, "After the envoy was brought to Shangjun, I read his seal letter, and it was indeed the military talisman of the three surrendered cities, and the one who sent over was the general under Zhang Renyuan's rule!" ”

Xue Chongxun quietly and carefully read the letter: "Do these people want to surrender to Cheng and wait for the officials and soldiers to take Zhang Renyuan's head to invite merit?" ”

Wang Changling said: "Exactly, the soldiers and horses with combat power under Zhang Renyuan are mainly in the three surrendered cities, and his subordinates say that as long as the official army arrives in the eastern surrendered city, they will surrender the eastern surrendered city and the middle surrendered city, and at the same time, the conspirators in the western surrendered city enter Zhang Renyuan's big tent to behead him, and the whole army surrenders to our official army...... The general trend has gone, and it seems that Zhang Renyuan is a betrayal of his relatives and left. ”

Zhang Wulang immediately clenched his fists and said: "But I'm afraid there is fraud, it's not appropriate for Xue Lang to go in person, I am willing to get 5,000 soldiers and horses to go to the East Surrender City to cooperate with them in this plan." ”

Wang Changling also agreed: "There is indeed a risk of fraudulent surrender, in case this secret letter is a plan, Xue Lang will easily enter the hinterland of Zhang Renyuan's jurisdiction, and it will be easy to be surrounded by enemies on all sides." But we should not give up this opportunity lightly, if the surrender of the three surrendered generals is true, we can put down the rebellion without spending troops, and at the same time, the border army in the Anbei area can also rebuild the defense against the Turks, and we can turn the border crisis at this time into a disaster. ”

Several people discussed, and when they looked back at Xue Chongxun, they saw him sitting on a chair in the north and hanging his head thinking about something, and he didn't seem to have spoken when he discussed it just now. The crowd turned their eyes to him and waited for his opinion.

Xue Chongxun glanced back at everyone, and then said thoughtfully: "I was just thinking, is this play performed by Zhang Renyuan and his generals?" ”

Wang Changling asked, "Xue Lang thinks this is a trick to lure the enemy?" ”

Xue Chongxun said: "It's a plan, but it's not a plan to lure the enemy, but a bitter plan...... Zhang Ren was willing to unite with the heir of the clan to rebel, and when he launched a sneak attack, he borrowed the light cavalry of the Turks, and then openly rebelled and borrowed the Turkic soldiers to increase his strength. Unexpectedly, getting involved with the Turks is a failure in itself, and we used a little trick a few days ago to force him to have no way out. As long as Zhang Ren is willing to dare to let the Turks enter the customs, he will be ruined and ruined, and he will be infamous as a traitor through the ages. So far, what else is he doing? With this bitter trick, maybe he can save the lives of his rebellious henchmen, at least their families, right? ”

Listening to his analysis, everyone nodded yes, thinking that it was possible. However, this is just a guess put forward by Xue Chongxun, and only they know what is going on in the Three Surrender City.

Zhang Wulang was still a little worried, and frowned: "The troops that can be mobilized in places such as Anbei Duhu and Sanshou Surrender City can reach 50,000 people, all of which are border troops who are brave in a hundred battles, and what is even stricter is that if this is a plan to lure the enemy, the Turkic soldiers may also go to the south of Yinshan...... And our army can gather about 33,000 men and horses at most after waiting for the arrival of the Guanzhong army, and the enemy is outnumbered Xue Lang has to be on guard. ”

At this moment, Xue Chongxun slapped the table and said, "As soon as the Guanzhong Army arrives, we will leave for Xiazhou." ”

He really didn't believe that Zhang Ren was willing to effectively mobilize the Tang soldiers in the entire Anbei region to fight a civil war under such public opinion, and he also used the trick of luring the enemy not to be heard by the official army?

So a plan was laid out so easily, and the staff group was also used to this situation, because the decision-making power was completely in the hands of Xue Chongxun, and he believed in his own intuition the most and was a little stubborn, and persuasion was useless.

In early March, the elite 30,000 troops of the Guanzhong Army arrived in Shangjun, and for this purpose, the number of people who used ordnance, grain and grass was more than that, and countless strong men, mules and horses were recruited and transferred from the Guanzhong Plain to the plateau along the way.

Arriving in Shangjun, there was also the appointment official document of Chang'an, and Xue Chongxun hung up the name of the general manager of the marching army in Shan Yudao...... But in his previous letter to Princess Taiping, he asked for the official position of "the chief of the march of Heisha Road", and this time there was a discrepancy in the letter of instruction, and Xue Chongxun also saw the subtle reason.

Heisha City is the southern court of the Turkic Khanate, if the commander of the army will be in the name of the head of the march of Heisha Road, it is a war against the Turks, Xue Chongxun knew that this war would involve the Turks, so he wrote that in the letter; At this time, the political hall authorized Xue Chongxun to the position of "Shan Yudao marching chief", which was intended to quell the rebellion against Zhang Renyuan, and had the intention of repairing relations with the Turks to negotiate peace.

Xue Chongxun looked at the appointment letter for a long time, and understood Zhang's distress in his heart. The financial expenditure of troops for many years will certainly not be spent, and it will be difficult for them to afford another national war under the existing national policy. After the fall of Li Longji, the Taiping princess's henchmen supported the puppet of the Li family to ascend to the throne and monopolized all the power of the country, which in itself is not a righteous and bright thing, but the world dares to be angry and dare not speak. The direct consequence of such a state policy was that the treasury revenue was poor, and after experiencing continuous wars with the Tibetans, it had already reached the point where it could not make ends meet; Even if Liu An and others have innovated in domestic affairs many times, they cannot fully satisfy the bottomless pit of war machines.

Xue Chongxun looked at the official document of the head of the Shan Yudao march and pondered for a long time, and he didn't even notice that the lights were getting dimmer and dimmer. It wasn't until a maid ran in to pick up the wick that he came back to reality from his inner world, and looked up to see that it was dark outside the window.

The maid glanced at him curiously, but when she met his gaze, she hurriedly turned her head to look at the lampstand, pretending to be serious about her work.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Xue Chongxun suddenly spoke, and the girl hurriedly stopped and stood down, waiting for his orders.

Xue Chongxun said something she didn't understand at all: "Destruction is sometimes not due to defeat on the battlefield, do you know how to let a regime fall unknowingly? ”

The girl looked at him innocently, shook her head desperately, and said: "The slave doesn't know a single big character, let alone the world and the world are yellow, please forgive the prince......

Xue Chongxun only said to himself: "At this time, if you have to face the pressure of war and have to recruit and mobilize hundreds of thousands of troops to fight, then you ordinary people have to contribute food and money." You can't read big words, so you naturally don't understand why you want to suffer, you must think that we nobles are arrogant, extravagant, lewd, easy, cruel, and unkind, and when the time comes, there will be a Yellow Turban Army in the east and a Red Turban Army in the west......"G
