Huangfu Weiming sat very uncomfortable.

In the past few years, he has been used to being arbitrary in the position of Longyou Jiedu, and it is rare for Wang to be such a fierce general, and he also has to peek at his eyes, which makes Huangfu Weiming fully appreciate the beauty of power. But now, he was a little uncomfortable, although he tried his best not to let his eyes look to the other side of the military lord's seat, but the rest of his eyes still reflected a smiling and round face over there.

There is treachery in the court

Huangfu Weiming's first thought when he saw the official document was like this, there was a treacherous evil in the court, not only proposed to send a prison envoy to him, but the prime minister who did not stop this matter was also treacherous

It seems that the frontier really can't stay for a long time, and after only a few years of hard work, there have been such big changes in the DPRK and China, and I still have to think about going back to the center.

At this moment, Ye Changkuo walked in.

"Huh? Ye joined the army, how did you come, could it be said that it only took three days for you to harvest all the fields?

"I'm here to ask the doctor for credit." Ye Chang said with a smile: "There is a sickle to harvest, a sickle can harvest ten acres a day, and now nearly two hundred hectares have been harvested, and in another three or five days, the remaining fields in Dahua can be harvested." ”

"Oh? So fast? The emperor was surprised.

This is really surprising, he knows that Ye Chang has made a total of thousands of push sickles, but the manpower in Ye Chang's hands is limited, according to the usual experience, it is great that these people can receive six or seven thousand mu, and now looking at it, one push sickle can be equivalent to three scythes in the past, and the harvesting efficiency has almost increased by three times

At this speed, he Huangfu Weiming couldn't imagine it, and of course Dog Rong couldn't think of it.

"If it can really be as you say, it is indeed a great achievement." Huangfu Weiming said: "I know about this matter, and after the grain is put into the warehouse, it will be awarded to the winner." ”

"There's only one thing, after the wheat harvest, there's a question of where to put it." Ye Chang said: "The place in Hongji City is small, and several hoarding warehouses are already full. ”

"This matter is easy to hear, send grain to Hualong, Yang Jinghui"

The most remote of the generals came out in response, and Huangfu Weiming glanced at him: "You lead your Ningsai army to defend Hualong City, don't make mistakes."

Yang Jinghui replied a little listlessly, his Ningsai army had the least number of troops among the armies, only 500 soldiers and 50 horses, which was not as good as a guard. This makes him not have a high status in front of Huangfu Weiming, and there has always been no good task, but there is never a shortage of things like guarding grain and grass.

"Most of our army's military resources are in Hualong, and only one army is guarded, so it is inevitable that there are too few ......" Wang rarely heard this, and said in and out: "Doctor, ambassador, in the meaning of his position, he should send more soldiers and generals." ”

"Also, Ye joined the army to push the sickle, which is really a great achievement, and the doctor should be rewarded." Someone followed.

It was one of Huangfu Weiming's cronies who spoke, everyone was a little surprised, Huangfu Weiming didn't want to see Ye Chang, this is something that everyone knows, but now his cronies have come forward to ask for credit for Ye Chang, could it be that Ye Chang collected the grain well, so that Huangfu Weiming changed his opinion of him?

But he saw that Huangfu Weiming pushed his hand impatiently: "Pushing the sickle is indeed a merit, but it's just a tool, and this merit is remembered...

"Doctor Huangfu, at this time of autumn defense, meritorious service will be rewarded, this is in line with the art of war, right?" The others did not speak, and one person could not sit still.

Bian Lingcheng's words made Huangfu Weiming stunned, and also made the generals in the army stunned.

Almost no one would like a eunuch to be a prisoner, Bian Lingcheng has only been here for half a day, and he doesn't understand anything, so he speaks, whether he is reasonable or not, he is not welcome.

Even Ye Chang didn't welcome him to speak at this time.

"Border ambassador, above the frontier, the first in military achievements." Huangfu Weiming's face also twitched, and he said with a displeased face: "In the affairs of the army, you have your own official in charge, if the official is wrong, you can report to the Son of Heaven." ”

Bian Lingcheng laughed: "Where is it, just now Bian Mou said, the Son of Heaven sent us to explain before he came, we came to comfort the front-line soldiers on behalf of the Son of Heaven, and in addition, we all listened to the doctor." ”

Huangfu Weiming glanced at him, and secretly said in his heart that you were interested, but he looked at Ye Chang: "You are also considered to be hard, in this way, you are responsible for escorting the grain and grass, sending all the wheat that has been harvested to Hualong, and then stay in Hualong-Wang is rare, you have a number of men and horses in your hand, and a thousand people will go with him, plus Yang Jinghui's five hundred men and horses, there are 1,500 people, and two thousand people, which is enough to support." As for the rest of the harvest, how about I arrange for another manpower? ”

Speaking of this, he looked at Ye Chang with a somewhat deep expression.

Ye Chang nodded: "Listen to orders." ”

"Hehe......" Huangfu Weiming seemed to think of something again: "It's too idle to guard the grain, and you will take more than half of the craftsman camp back to Hualong, responsible for supervising the construction of the sickle, with this thing, we can plant more wheat in the future in the river meander, and reduce the trouble of transporting military grain, which is also a great achievement." ”

There were people who laughed secretly, and the emperor kept saying that it was a great achievement, but among those present, who wanted to go back to guard the grain and grass? Yang Jinghui's expression is proof that guarding the grain and grass is a completely thankless thing, and after the battle, there is neither beheading nor prisoners, discussing wealth, nor plundering. On the contrary, if there is an accident, even if it is a fire, it is a big responsibility.

Ye Chang didn't want to stay with Huangfu Weiming, so he answered at the moment, and Ling Cheng over there didn't like it: "This...... Doctor Huangfu, we heard that when the army was marching, food and grass were the most important thing, and he should be guarded with heavy troops, and only 1,500 soldiers should be given to him...... Isn't that a bit careless?

"Don't say much about the affairs of the army."

At this time, the majesty of the ambassador of the prison army was far from being later, Bian Lingcheng touched the wall twice in a row on Huangfu Weiming's side, he smiled, and showed a helpless look to Ye Chang.

This guy is a model of pit teammates, originally Ye Chang wished he had come earlier, so as to suppress Huangfu Weiming and make his life better, but now, he thinks that it is better for this guy not to appear here.

After coming out, Li Bai was the first to sneer: "Ye Shiyi, this emperor is only clear, did you offend him?" ”

"Where do I know about Lu Dao" Ye Chang was also inexplicable, but he didn't know that although he himself did not offend Huangfu Weiming, the proposition of the frontier made Huangfu Weiming feel that he had been slapped in the face, which was purely a disaster.

"He has repeatedly embarrassed you, and there are many treacherous villains used in the court, and the same is true for the border generals" Li Bai said this, and suddenly looked up to the sky and roared: "Oh, the danger is high, the difficulty of Shu Road is difficult to go to the blue sky...... Guards or bandits, turn into wolves and jackals to avoid tigers, avoid long snakes at night, grind their teeth and suck blood, and kill people like ......"

He also roared and sang, his voice was high, and a sense of sadness and anger overflowed on his face.

Ye Chang only sighed and patted him on the shoulder: "Brother Qinglian, why be angry? ”

"Can you not be angry, merit is not rewarded, talent is not needed" Li Bai said: "You can bear it."

Gao Shi grabbed Li Bai, suppressed his voice, glared at him and said, "Taibai, your qi cultivation skills are not as good as Ye Shiyi, who has not reached the crown?" ”

"Huh?" Li Bai was angry and was suffocated by Gao Shi's words.

Yes, although Ye Chang's experience aroused his resonance, it was Ye Chang who was humiliated today, and although Ye Chang himself had an unhappy look on his face, he finally endured it. No matter how resonant he Li Bai is, he can't be more out of shape than Ye Chang himself, right?

"Besides, there are no absolutes, and there may be a turnaround." Ye Chang said implicitly.

Cen Shen heard this, thoughtfully, Li Bai was also extremely smart, frowned and thought for a while, pointed at Gao Shi and said: "You have been away for a long time, could it be that you know that Lu Dao will encounter such a cold fall on Huangfu Weiming's side, so you are prepared...... By the way, the Warden? ”

He thought of Bian Lingcheng, the envoy of the prison army, and he didn't have a good impression of the eunuch, so he looked at Gao Shi suspiciously.

Gao Shi said angrily: "What are you thinking nonsense, Li Taibai, just wait and see." ”

Just as Li Bai was pondering, they left the military office and rushed to the craftsman camp. Over there, after receiving the 500 pushes of sickles newly made in the past two days, Ye Chang ordered most of the craftsmen in the camp to pack up their baggage and return to Hualong City with Yang Jinghui's troops. The craftsmen of these craftsmen camp have been rewarded by him in the past few days, but they are all very excited, but Ye Ying whispered to Ye Chang that the money they finally brought to the plateau has been dispersed.

Hualong City is in the east of Hongji, and Hongji is only about forty miles apart, so it can be reached in the morning and in the afternoon. This place is also the rear of the Tang Army, and there was originally a garrison, but now Ye Chang led Yang Jinghui to come, and the original garrison changed guards and left.

Like Hongji, Hualong City is located on the top of the mountain, the area is not large, the surrounding is steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Ye Chang entered the city, and he didn't stop for a moment, so he pulled the Yang military envoy to check the city defense.

"Ye joins the army, you can affect me, I was originally counting on Fang Qiu to make some contributions, but now I have been sent here, Ye joins the army, what kind of city defense do you still see, and finding a way to escape is the right way."

As soon as Yang Jinghui spoke, Ye Chang was startled.

"Running for your life?"

"Doctor Huangfu stuffed us here, but it's a bait" Yang Jinghui is no longer that listless appearance at this time: "He wants to use us to lure out the dogs"

Ye Chang, who was staring at him, really didn't expect that the strategy he had discussed with Gao Shi would expose this notorious border general

Yang Jinghui is not wrong, this is a bait, the bait is the grain and grass accumulated by the Tang army, in order to be afraid that this bait is not attractive enough, Huangfu Weiming also stuffed the craftsman camp - the dog Rong people are eager for the craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty, and they have deceived and kissed them several times, and they have indicated that they want the Tang Dynasty to send craftsmen. These Yidi on the plateau still understand the significance of craftsmen to increase national strength, but the rulers of the Tang Dynasty really did what they wanted. When Princess Wencheng entered the Dog Rong, she sent a large number of craftsmen, and it was only when she got there that she realized that the Dog Rong Zampu had already married Princess Nibra as a concubine. When Princess Jincheng entered the Inurong, she also brought hundreds of craftsmen, and when she arrived at the early knowledge of Lu Dao, the Zanpu Ye Zuru (Chide Zuzan) who married the fourteen-year-old princess was only seven years old - this is not a cheating marriage, what is it?

"With our 1,500 men, how can we hold on?" Yang Jinghui sneered again: "Ye joined the army, I have not been treated by the imperial doctor for more than one day, and I think you are the same...... Since you have a way in the court, send someone back to report the news, so that you may be in case of emergency. As for yourself, don't worry about any precautions, if the dog Rong doesn't come, it will be a thunderbolt, just a small city, how many days can you hold it? ”

"Since you know the Dao, and the Imperial Doctor uses us as bait, then you must be worried, he will not sit idly by and watch the loss of Hualong City." Ye Chang calmed down, and once again affirmed that these Tang people were as smart as they were, and their calculations really needed to be considered more deeply.

"Doctor Huangfu is nothing more than luring out the dog Rong and suddenly attacking the back road of the dog Rong. Ye joined the army, you are not at the border, you don't know the situation of the dogs, among the dogs, there are also wise people, how can you be so easy to be fooled? Don't look at the fact that you still have 1,500 troops in your hands now, and in order to lure the dog out, the emperor will definitely transfer troops to leave......"

Before Yang Jinghui's words fell, he saw a horse galloping over, and after the horse came here, he passed the emperor's order to transfer away the king's rare 1,000 troops.

"Look, I'll tell you." Yang Jinghui smiled bitterly: "Ye joins the army, what do you think will happen next?" ”

"This ...... General Yang said to listen to so-and-so? ”

"Next, in order to welcome the arrival of the prison army, the imperial doctor will set up a wine and feast in the city, and then in Tuyuhun with the army, someone will inevitably go to report to the dog Rong."

This area of Kuozhou was originally the active place of the Tuyuhun people, and later the power of the Dog Rong people extended to here, and the Tugu Hun people were divided, and one of them voted for the Dog Rong, and was ordered by the Dog Rong Zanpu, and it is said that he also married the Princess of the Dog Rong. The other part contains Datang and works for Datang. Among these two Tuyuhun films, there are mutual spies between the Tang Dynasty and the dog Rong, and both sides are well aware of this.

"And then?" Ye Chang asked again.

"And then there was the dogs who came in a big way...... The dog Rong is stationed in the Jishi army, with at least more than 10,000 cavalry, plus the vassal Tuyuhun, if it is attacked, it must be more than 15,000 cavalry. Don't say that you have been transferred another 1,000 soldiers, that is, those 1,000 troops are here, with 1,500 men, how can you fight against the enemy's 15,000 cavalry? ”

Ye Chang was dumbfounded.

"If there are many soldiers, the dogs will not be fooled, and if there are few soldiers, the city of Hualong will not be defended. Whether the dog Rong comes or not, we are thankless, if we don't come, it's just that, thankless at least we don't lose our lives, but if the dog Rong comes, if we don't find a way out early, we will definitely die."

"The more this is the case, the more we must rectify the city defense." Cen Shen listened here, and couldn't help but say: "You can't run away without a fight"

"It's too late to fight and flee"

Li Bai looked at Gao Shi and then at Ye Chang, he was extremely smart, remembering what Gao Shi Ye Chang said, he suddenly thought through: "Coming to Hualong City is a strategy you gave to the imperial doctor, and Fang Cai's appearance was shown by you to the dog Rong spies?" ”

Ye Chang didn't expect that a Yang Jinghui would see their plan, and when he glanced at Gao Shi, he was a little embarrassed.

"General Yang, since you don't avoid suspicion and treat me sincerely, then I will also tell you frankly, Taibai is right, this plan is not set up by the emperor and doctor, but I volunteered." Ye Chang opened his mouth and said: "I pretended to be at odds with the Imperial Doctor, he drove me here, and ordered me to bring the craftsman camp, which was originally to lure the dog Rong to attack...... It's just that I don't know why he transferred Wang Rare's troops back."

"Huh?" Yang Jinghui couldn't help but be a little embarrassed when he heard this: "If that's the case...... We only have the idea to hold out until the reinforcements come, and if the reinforcements are late, we ...... But it's miserable. ”

Ye Chang thought so.
