Of course, the purple robe Taoist knew about the unjust death of the soul on the bank of the Jiangcheng River, and of course the matter of Juling's exorcism and treatment was also guessed by the purple robe, and stayed at the old friend's side for a few days, leaving Wu Huixi, Wu Xuanxi sisters and Dehou Gonggong to visit their former friends around Liangzhou, and the two old brothers were naturally very familiar with the old friends who had been separated for several years, so that they were delayed for a long time and went out for several months before returning to Jiangcheng.

Zhao Yunyu Feige's biography clearly indicated the situation in Jiangcheng, and lied that she still needed to recuperate in Jiangcheng for a long time, and everyone in the palace knew about it, so no one reported it in front of the emperor.

Jiangcheng garrison Xu Menglong privately dismissed officers, supported the army for self-respect, colluded against the party, set up party henchmen and other charges were reported to the imperial court, and the emperor asked Zhao Yunyu to stay in Jiangcheng and wait for news.

The imperial court sent the general Beigong Qing to lead the troops to raid the Khitan, marched more than 100 miles, captured the eighteen cities of Yunzhou in the Khitan, Beigong Qing was rare to be old and could take over the army to fight and kill, planning like a god, 300,000 troops will defeat the Khitan garrison guarding the border, and the general will win another fabulous record.

The Khitan trend has gone, so they have to negotiate and call the ministers, and agree to pay tribute to the Zhongzhou court every year, with gold and silver, fine and soft, precious stones and pearls.

Secretly, taking advantage of this time when the Liangzhou traitors were relieved to change the important positions of military affairs in Liangzhou, the imperial court began to change the Zhenyuan general Hu Lurongbian, and the veteran Beigong Qingguan worshiped the Taiwei, and the knight was named Cangzhou, and under the emperor's secret edict, he rectified the military affairs of the Liangzhou bordering states.

As the so-called catching turtles in the urn and closing the door and beating the dogs, the states bordering Liangzhou are made into unbreakable iron buckets, and no matter how capable the rebels are, they can't toss, so this approach does not alarm the rebels to rebel immediately, and it is the most willing thing for the imperial court to see if they can slowly plot.

Beigong Qing was in charge of military affairs, making full use of the convenience of being familiar with military affairs, and changed the commanders of the garrisons in Youzhou, Bingzhou and other places, Liangzhou was open and endless, even if Beigong Qing couldn't be old, he could lead the army to destroy the decay if he was a sergeant who knew a little bit about leading troops to fight.

The rebels have a limited source of soldiers, the local people in Liangzhou, the population war has been damaged, and the vitality has not recovered, and the rebels can only recruit the soldiers and civilians of Liangzhou to get a good reputation for the imperial court to treat the people well, so the Liangzhou rebels can be said to be nothing worth worrying about.

The strategists and thinkers in the rebel army found out about the actions of the imperial court, and then the rebels were panicked, originally relying on the blood to restore the country, and there were still residual forces, but they didn't expect to be trapped in Liangzhou, but they raised troops to expose the news, and the die-hard officers of the imperial court who were placed in the states by Beigong Qing immediately pointed at them, so that even the matter of waiting for the young man of Beigong to leave office was exempted.

This day coincided with the addition of the guards of the deposed mission, and the white hair of Xu Menglong's sideburns in the secret room of the Xu family was born in a few days, and the original escort of the deposed mission was rich, and the move to add personnel was basically to protect the deposed envoy against him, and the glory and wealth of the Xu family were supported by him alone, and the black gauze hat of his Jiangcheng garrison was gone, and the Xu family was completely reduced to the common people.

Xu Gong has been dragging his cultivation since he lost the blood jade, and on this day, at Xu Menglong's request, he came to the secret room to see him alone, and as soon as he entered the secret room, he saw his father Xu Menglong standing in front of a map with blood-red eyes and hands behind his back.

"Dad, are you looking for me?"

Xu Menglong sighed, nodded and motioned for Xu Gong to sit down, paused for a long time and said hoarsely: "The imperial court has increased the number of troops for the deposed mission, and the deposed mission has been in Jiangcheng for more than half a year, what do you think?"

Xu Gong has never learned the art of war, nor has he been an official in politics, but he can also think that the imperial court is guarding against the Xu family, and said nervously: "Depose the mission to report the affairs of our family to the imperial court?"

Xu Menglong smiled bitterly and said: "Yes, without the approval of Liangzhou Prefecture, the deposed mission just like this army marched into Jiangcheng, listening to the secret report above, or the elite sergeants of the tiger and leopard battalion of the imperial court, all of them are one enemy and ten, Jiangcheng garrison, but the gap between the teeth, the most important thing is that the Liangzhou Prefecture is not prepared to start an incident, if the imperial court besieges Xufu, my head will be gone." ”

Although the dispatch of troops by the imperial court is justified, it is still routine to inform the local state to avoid the defenders from misunderstanding the imperial army, but this time the 5,000 sergeants of the Tiger and Leopard Battalion of the Royal Forest Army entered Jiangcheng with the emperor's edict, and Xu Menglong did not dare to stop the Tiger and Leopard Battalion with ten heads.

This kind of action is clearly that he Xu Menglong is staring at the imperial court, and the upper echelons of the Liangzhou rebels have not been demoted, but his small Jiangcheng garrison was wiped out first, making it clear that he was deposed and reported to the imperial court to increase troops to guard against him.

Once the glory is gone, Xu Menglong is not only nostalgic for the steadfastness of the power, but also wants to sit in Jiangcheng for a few more years, and now it seems that he will be dismissed from his post and investigated with an order, Dali Temple, Huangcheng Division, there is always a way to torture him to the point that life is better than death.

Beigong Qing on the side of Rongbian called back the imperial court to be idle, and everyone knew that the Taiwei was in charge of military affairs, Sheng Shitai couldn't see the importance of the Taiwei, but during the war, the Taiwei was the pillar of the militarism, Beigong Qing must be secretly changing officers, and the old thing has never missed more than 100 battles in his life, and the title of the god of war is not something that can be fought casually.

Recognizing the situation, Xu Gong pondered the way out of the Xu family in the future, although he did not rely on his father Xu Menglong's relationship to participate in military and political affairs for many years, the matter of evil cultivation was kept secret, and now it is not a problem to be a free hero according to his strength, I am afraid that my father will be frustrated and depressed.

Xu Gong thought for a long time, and then said: "There is no news from the deposed side, we can flee with the family property when we are in a hurry, the tunnel dug the year before last is just coming in handy, these years of practice have been great, I believe that the family will not fall in the future." ”

"Well, arrange it, and be prepared to leave through the tunnel when there is news from there. Xu Menglong looked at the map of Liangzhou, the low mountains were sparse, and the march of the cavalry was not hindered at all, I really didn't know what the rebels were waiting for in the long time......

Jiangcheng deposed the mission station, Zhao Yunyu in men's clothes sat on the head, and Bai Hairong, the deputy commander of the forbidden army of the tiger and leopard battalion, solemnly handed the secret edict to the entourage, and then the entourage handed it to Zhao Yunyu in front of the table, that is, the secret edict, and there was no requirement to kneel down to receive the edict.

Zhao Yunyu followed the secret edict, and the left and right were far away, and then he looked at the content, roughly saying that she wanted to cooperate with the deposed mission to elevate the Jiangcheng garrison Xu Menglong, but the position did not say that she wanted to be punished, but only asked to replace the important military posts in Jiangcheng with cronies, or the local loyal generals in Jiangcheng.

In addition, General Beigong Qinglao has broken through the rebels' plan to win people's hearts, and has already transferred unreliable officers from the bordering states of Liangzhou, and the actions of the imperial court not only give people peace of mind, but also say that they will ensure that Jiangcheng will become a transit point for the rebels to rebel and the supply of the imperial army in the future.

After reading the secret edict, Zhao Yunyu smiled and said to Bai Hairong: "General Bai is tired of traveling and driving, and the emperor wants the general to help with military affairs. ”

Zhao Yunyu was wearing a human skin mask, and her voice changed her tone by special techniques, and she was completely a thin scholar when she didn't get closer, and the woman's bookish atmosphere was strong, so there was nothing out of place for Zhao Yunyu to dress as a man.

Everything was used by Dehou's father-in-law to dress up Zhao Yunyu, so that he could not only come to Jiangcheng in person, but also act conveniently by virtue of his identity as a deposed envoy.

Bai Hairong arched his hand and smiled back: "Lord Zhao has said it, it should be humble, the emperor has already ordered it properly, Lord Zhao just needs to watch." ”

"That's good, the prefect of Jiangcheng sent more than ten letters from Jiangcheng military generals a while ago, and according to various researches, all credible officers were listed. Zhao Yunyu pushed a blank piece of paper with a list of Jiangcheng officials to Bai Hairong.

After reading it, Bai Hairong became a bamboo in his chest, thinking that the Jiangcheng garrison had already hollowed out Xu Menglong, the garrison of Jiangcheng, but in fact, the sergeant did not receive additional military salaries, so it can be seen that only the officers and officers of Jiangcheng were restrained, and they only took down the officers with the momentum of thunder, and this crisis in Jiangcheng was wiped out in a snap of his fingers.

Bai Hairong stared at the list and said in a deep voice: "The political situation in Jiangcheng has not been shaken at all, the civilian officials have almost no contact with the rebels, but the military expenses are also in the hands of the two factions of civil and military officials. ”

Zhao Yunyu has lived in the deep pavilion for a long time, and he doesn't know a lot about political and military affairs, and he really has no ability to make this deposed envoy come out of nowhere, and asked: "Finding out these cronies who will inevitably involve the rebels, what if you startle the snake?"

Bai Hairong frowned and pondered, it stands to reason that the officers and generals of Jiangcheng are all bought by the rebels because they value interests, and they did not buy the civilian officials to avoid exposure, which shows that there are not so many clever and resourceful people in the rebel army, and he replied for a while: "The manpower of the Imperial City Division should not be usable, and the civil and military officials in Jiangcheng should always be in contact with each other, huh...... The lowly wanted to bother Lord Zhao to write a secret letter, copy dozens of copies and send them to the Jiangcheng officials, specifically looking for those low-level officials who were depressed, and if they didn't look up and look down, they would inevitably know a lot of Jiangcheng affairs. ”

"Well, no problem, I can write it at night. Zhao Yunyu said.

According to Zhao Yunyu's thoughts, the practice of Jiangcheng's affairs is to take them all, Bai Hairong can still think that the Jiangcheng generals may be coerced again, which brings you to Zhao Yunyu's opinion that she did not think carefully, the rebels are now holding Liangzhou in the air, that is, they are holding the military affairs of the entire Liangzhou without fear, calculating that the imperial court will not replace the entire Liangzhou investigation and governance, according to Bai Hairong's practice of first figuring out the specific facts of the generals at all levels, it is still a little more courageous, and it seems that Bai Hairong can be regarded as doing things steadily.
