Anxi temporarily regained its tranquility, and in the following days, Li Siye was busy asking the Anxi Protectorate to supplement the losses. When facing Fu Meng Lingcha, what should he usually do, and what is still now, after all, our heart is strong, and we are not as frizzy as the children who have seen through the true face of the demon king.

The families of the soldiers killed in the two battalions would receive a small amount of monetary subsidies, and the vacancies in the camp after the war would be directly drawn from other parts of Anxi, and the lost horses and damaged weapons and armor were replenished from the Cangcao armor depot and horse farm.

Regarding the vacancy of the two dead captains in the jumping battalion, Fumeng Lingcha also directly let Li Siye decide for himself, and he let Tian Zhen and Fujimu both join the battle front team and serve as captains of the two regiments of the battle front team. Duan Xiushi was also appointed as the captain of the second regiment of the jumping battalion.

Before this, an interesting thing happened, that is, when the front team retreated over the mountains and mountains in Bole River, more than a dozen people in the first regiment fell into the deep valley with their swords, and after returning to inquire about the matter, Fumeng Lingcha directly suggested that Li Siye remove the captain on the spot.

This may be suspected of deliberately squeezing out in order to install his own people, but is it a bit excessive to dismiss a lieutenant because he lost more than a dozen knives.

The Mo knife is indeed very expensive, second only to the horse lance among all the weapons of the Tang Army, but the horse lance is a treasure that the military aristocratic family genetically shows off, and the Mo knife is the pinnacle of the Tang Army's standard cold weapons.

The twenty-ninth year of Kaiyuan will soon become a thing of the past, and in this winter, which is not too cold, Li Siye waited peacefully, waiting for time to pass, waiting for new opportunities to come.

He spent the New Year at home on this day, for this day, Li Siye specially made dumplings at home, but this dumpling was not called dumplings in the Tang Dynasty, but called Yanyue wontons, also called Jiaozi. Roll out the dough into pancakes, chop the lamb into minced meat, and add the shallots, salt and pepper. It's a pity that there is only garlic and no vinegar in the Anxi market, so I don't have to eat a dumpling and go to Hedong Province to buy vinegar in advance.

But he still found a substitute, and the sour taste of Sanle pulp after a little longer time is left, but this sour and vinegar sour are completely different things.

At noon, the big pot at home boiled water, Wu Niangzi took the dustpan at home to put the pinched dumplings into the pot, tumbled up and down in the steaming, and after cooking, scooped them into several large bowls with a fence, first as a tribute to burn incense and pay tribute to the ancestors and gods, and then it was their turn to eat.

The thin-skinned and stuffed mutton dumplings are dipped in sour Sanle liquor, which has a unique taste.

There was laughter in the courtyard: "I seem to smell the scent!" ”

Li Siye opened the curtain and walked out, and saw Gao Xianzhi standing in the courtyard, smiling and arching his hand at him: "On the day of Yuanzheng, I specially came to your house to visit the door." ”

He secretly slandered, when he came to visit the door, he would really choose, this was actually to eat.

He smiled and slapped his hand towards Gao Xianzhi: "You came just in time, you can be regarded as a blessing, come and taste it." ”

Li Siye smiled and invited Gao Xianzhi to the house, and put a big bowl of dumplings and a stack of Sanle pulp in front of him: "Come on, General Gao, the dumplings are dipped in wine, and the more you eat, the more you eat, the more you have." ”

Gao Xianzhi first tasted it tentatively, and then his eyes widened, startling Li Siye, thinking that he was stuck in his throat, and was about to kick him in the back.

"Good, delicious! I have long heard that you Li Siye is a glutton, and when I tasted it today, it really deserved its reputation. ”

At this time, Gao Xianzhi completely lost his elegant character, holding the big bowl and eating wildly, until he loosened the belt of his trousers and raised his hand to wipe the oil on his mouth.

"Ha, huh, heir, I'm going to visit Fumeng Duhu and Tanaka Cheng later, now I'm here to call you, and I'll pack more of the Jiaozi you made, let's carry the food box over and let the two bosses try it."

Mei'er sat aside and secretly glared at this guy who didn't know anything, I didn't expect you to not only eat and drink in vain, but also want to walk around after eating, in order to make these dumplings, this lady's hands are sore.

After a while, Twelve Niang and Wu Da Niang put two large bowls of dumplings in the food box, inserted them with wooden lids, held them to Li Siye with their own hands, and personally sent him and Gao Xianzhi out of the door.

……

Except for Li Siye, everyone in Moxi, which is thousands of miles away from Chang'an, believes that this year will be the 30th year of Kaiyuan, and the official documents signed by the Duhufu at the beginning of the year are all used to name the 30th year of Kaiyuan.

But in Chang'an on the eighth day of the first lunar month, Tian Tongxiu, a member of the army of King Chen's mansion, wrote a book, claiming to have seen Emperor Xuanyuan in the air on Danfengmen Street, and told him personally, "I have a spiritual talisman in Yin Xi's hometown." ”

At this time, Tang Xuanzong was in an extreme obsession with Taoism, so he naturally believed in this kind of words, and immediately sent someone to get it, and sure enough, he unearthed a 5,000-character bamboo Tao Te Ching in Yin Xi's former residence in Hangu Pass. Tang Xuanzong was overjoyed, thinking that this was the spiritual treasure given by God to the Tang Dynasty, so the spiritual treasure was enshrined in the temple of Emperor Xuanyuan of Taishang, and the Taolin County of Hanguguan, where the bamboo slips were found, was renamed Lingbao County, and the year name was changed to Tianbao, which took the meaning of the spiritual treasure from the sky.

The Tang Emperor issued the first decree in the first month of the first year of Tianbao, and the special messenger set off from the Beijing Shidu Tingyi, radiating to all parts of the country to transmit information, announcing the new year name Tianbao, and at the same time summoning the nine sections of the envoy and the meritorious generals under his command to enter the Beijing Xugong, and ordered the border pass to notify the envoys of various countries that the great court meeting will be held in the Hanyuan Hall of the Daming Palace on March 3.

The choice to hold the court meeting in March has fully taken into account the fact that the border pass road is far from being reached in time, for example, Anxi Qiuzi is more than 7,000 miles away from Chang'an, and Lingnan is also more than 8,000 miles away from Chang'an.

When the messenger of the imperial court arrived in Anxi, it was already the end of the first month, and after Tian Renwan received the letter, he immediately sent someone to inform the ten Turkic tribes and the nine kingdoms of Zhaowu, including the white-clothed food on the verge of changing the dynasty.

This time, Tian Renwan didn't want to go, the military operation of the expedition to Xiao Bolu failed, and the Anxi Protectorate couldn't ask the emperor for any military merits this year? Although it is said that the sand bandits on the Khotanese Road were cleared, the four dignified towns of Anxi put the matter of exterminating the sand bandits in the court, which would only make the festivals of other towns laugh at shame.

Of course, it is also important to build post stations to suppress sand bandits and maintain the Silk Road, but after all, this kind of thing is not as big as attacking cities and plundering land to capture the enemy. More importantly, this matter is not his credit, although it was also done under his leadership, but if he can make Fu Meng Lingcha unhappy, he would rather lose eight hundred to himself.

It's a pity that it's not easy to lose 800 yourself, Anxi didn't make an inch of merit except for the post station, and Tian Renwan really didn't have the face to light up the whiteboard.

In fact, Tanaka Cheng does not need to be presumptuous, on the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month of the twenty-ninth year of the old calendar, a major event occurred in Hexi, Tubo captured Dahua County, Kuozhou, and took advantage of the Tang army to attack the stone castle. This city was originally easy to defend and difficult to attack, only a few hundred people were needed to defend the city, and tens of thousands of troops had to return with feathers. It's a pity that Hexi Longyou Jiedu made Gai Jiayun proud and self-contained in office, and listened to "Ganzhou Daqu" all day except drinking, and when the Tubo people attacked, the stone castle was not prepared for defense, and it was thrown to the Tubo people in vain.

A few years later, in order to recapture the stone castle, the emperor deposed Wang Zhonghe, forced Ge Shuhan to attack the city, and left 10,000 corpses of Tang troops at the head of the city.

When the news came back to Chang'an, it was the time of Shangyuan, Li Longji was furious, so angry that he didn't even have a good holiday, remembering the merits of Gai Jiayun's past, only deposed him, and moved Huangfu Weiming as the envoy of the Longyou Festival, and Wang Qi as the envoy of the Hexi Festival.

Although the four towns of Anxi are very close to Hexi, Hexi has no obligation to send a message to it, so when Tian Renwan led the generals to Beijing to Xugong, he knew that such a big thing had happened in Hexi.

Tian Renwan relayed the news to Fu Meng Lingcha to see how he reacted.

Fu Mengdu sighed on his horse: "After pacifying the Tuqi Shi Hei surname, the saint held a celebration banquet for him in the Calyx Tower, and appointed him as the envoy of the two towns of Longyou, Hexi, what a blessing!" But this Gai Jiayun had an arrogant posture at that time, and set up a banquet at home every day to drink, sing, dance, and his subordinates also advised him, but unfortunately he didn't listen, and he was defeated today. ”

Tian Renwan laughed and stopped talking. Li Siye could understand it behind the two, and he didn't want to expose Fu Meng's lies, just listen to it and be happy, why bother to take it seriously.
