Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Lonely Sandbar is Cold

I don't know when there were suddenly many more foreign generals in the Tang army.

The Turks with the surname Ashina, the Tiele people with the surname Qibi, the Goryeo people with the surname Go, and the Silla people with some messy surnames, the Baekje people, the Wa people, the Hui people, and the Zhaowu nine surnames.

Li Ji has fiercely opposed these people entering the military system in the court, but unfortunately, opposition is opposition, but it has no effect.

These alien generals now seem to be very useful, they are obedient, and they are in charge of killing the enemy in battle, and Li Ji can't come up with more suitable Tang young people to replace these aliens.

This made Li Ji and other veterans very shameless.

Li Ji once pointed at Yun Chu's nose and scolded in the court, saying that in order to be a civil official, he didn't even want to lose his face, and watched the Tang army full of aliens who he had wanted to kill quickly.

He said that these words are useless, in the Tang Dynasty, the soldiers that the general can really lead are very limited, and once the position exceeds that of the captain of Zhichong, he basically becomes a bare-bones commander.

There are soldiers and horses in the sixteen guards of the capital, and there are many generals, deputy generals, generals, and tooth generals, but unfortunately, the commander of the soldiers and horses is still the commander of the capital, and the generals and soldiers cannot get close.

Therefore, once the position of a general exceeds that of the lieutenant of Ochong, he will generally pursue a civilian position, rather than being a general who has little oil and water and does not have much power.

Yun Chu brought a lot of people, and naturally he couldn't stay in the military city of Yumen Pass, so Yun Chu returned to the Red Willow Forest with his people.

When Yun Chu left the Red Willow Forest, there were still thousands of people living a wandering life here, and after returning, the Red Willow Forest here was still shivering in the cold wind, but there was no trace of anyone.

When Yun Chu came here, Xiao Yuhua was the grass head king here, and Avanti was the wise man here, although this king and that wise man were often disliked by the people here, but without the grass head king, without the unreliable wise man to protect them, this group of wanderers could no longer continue to live in this red willow forest.

The caravan entered the Red Willow Forest, and beside the spring in the depths of the Red Willow Forest, Yun Chu saw a lot of bones.

The pit yards had been flooded with grass, and the wanderers who had moved here did not know where they had gone.

In the Hexi Corridor of the Tang Dynasty, this kind of thing was not uncommon at all, and the rule of the government was limited to a few cities, a few points, and there was no way to take care of the vast countryside here.

It's not that there are no people in the Tang Dynasty, but the people here are not Tang people, there are Tubo people, there are Hui people, there are Turkic people, there are Tiele people, and even there are Sai people, and there are Tang people, but they also have a name - savage.

Xiao Yuhua used force to pinch these people together and barely live, Xiao Yuhua was captured by Yun Chu, and these people scattered.

When people are scattered, there is no way to defend against foreign enemies, and in the Hexi Corridor, the largest number of horse thieves or mountain thieves are the most numerous.

Fangzheng sent a lot of grain, and even seven or eight sheep and a cow, and there was more salt, but the quality was not good and gray.

"Who is the Sandbank Thorn?"

"Peng Damu, the root and foot are Xu Jingzong, people are not greedy, they are the eyes and ears of Xu Jingzong, he treats everyone with a smile, and whoever asks for him will give convenience, that is, he will record the person who gave convenience and send it to Xu Jingzong."

It happened that Zhang Donghai was beside him, and Yun Chu looked at Zhang Donghai and said: "People are not greedy, you can't do it, right?" ”

Zhang Donghai said with a smile: "Whether there is corruption or not is not up to him, it is our Baiqi Division who has the final say."

If he wants to be innocent, he must first survive the means of my hundred horsemen and then say that he is innocent. ”

Yun Chu said: "Who is going to deal with Xu Jingzong?" It stands to reason that you horsemen do not listen to others. ”

Zhang Donghai said with a smile: "Naturally, it is an order from our Metropolitan Governor. ”

Yun Chu nodded, and sat on the edge of the fire roasting a leg of mutton, while Zhang Donghai rode away with a hundred and ten people.

Fang Zheng sat on the sand, his teeth chattering, Yun Chu glanced at Fang Zheng and ignored it, this was frightened by the people of the Hundred Riders, and it would be fine after a while.

"I don't deserve to be a sandbank thorn."

Fangzheng's teeth stopped shaking, so he carefully leaned over to the fire and buried his head between his legs, unable to raise his head guiltily.

Yun Chu was stunned for a moment and said, "You don't think I'm going to deal with this Peng Damu, right?" ”

"I'm still guilty of sin." Fang Zheng began to explain again, and it seemed that he had been completely frightened by the Hundred Horsemen.

This person has basically been abolished, that is to say, this person is useless, just like he said to Yun Chu outside the Yumen Pass, he just wants to be an official in Shazhou honestly and finish this life.

"The Li family in Dunhuang is a royal family, and some people see that there is a problem with this one, so they want to check the Li royal family through some clues.

It has nothing to do with us. ”

As soon as Yun Chu's words fell, Fangzheng's teeth began to gurgle again, and his fat body collapsed on the sand, his eyes full of despair.

"Save me......" Fang Zheng shouted to Yunchu tremblingly.

Yun Chu leaned over and looked at Fang Zheng and said, "When I saw you in the Hundred Riders, you weren't so unbearable." ”

Fang Zheng said in tears: "I thought I was going to die, and the dead are naturally not afraid of anything." ”

Yun Chu said again: "No, after I rescued you, you still boasted that you wanted to dig for gold, and finally helped Naha repair the Golden Buddha Temple, but at that time you were a little arrogant." ”

Fangzheng's lips continued to tremble, and he said after a while: "Dig gold, help you build the Golden Buddha Temple, at most a little tired, at most a little bitter, no one will die, and you will not be connected to the nine clans."

Over the years, it has been my sisters who have helped me, who can help me and who can't.

Even if I can't repay them, I can't hurt them anyway, Ah Chu, save me, I don't deserve this official, okay? ”

Yun Chu smiled: "Don't worry, your brothers-in-law are not wine bags and rice bags, they brought you to the sandbank, maybe this has been considered, this Peng Damu is about to be finished, if your luck is a little better, if your sisters are a little more powerful, you will be able to become the history of this sandbank."

Isn't this the path that officials are taking?

You want to be stable on the one hand, and you want to be an official on the other, how can there be such a good thing in this world? ”

"You think I'm going to be fine?"

"Well, you won't be fine, if there is, wouldn't it be the most convenient for Zhang Donghai and them to arrest you?"

"You're saying that even if the royal family is involved, I'll be fine?"

"The royal family is unlucky, the royal family is unlucky, the assassin history of the sandbank has been arrested, the royal family of Dunhuang has been arrested, if even you are arrested, will there be anyone to govern this sandbank? Listen to me stand up, well, nothing.

Giving, eat mutton. ”

As Yun Chu spoke, he handed Fang Zheng a large string of red willow barbecue.

Yun Chu's words gave Fang Zheng great comfort, took the mutton skewers and took a bite, his face turned red, put down the mutton skewers, and hurriedly went to the depths of the red willow forest, only to come back after a while, looking relaxed.

When Fang Zheng went to rest, he came to the edge of the fire with a tired face, threw a stack of documents to Yun Chu and said: "In the past two years, we have not known much about domestic affairs in the Western Regions, and after reading these complete newspapers and military newspapers, we know that it is indeed a difficult thing to be an official now." ”

Yun Chu took the paperwork that Gentleness had arranged, looked at it for a while, put the paperwork aside, helped Gentleness roast mutton skewers and handed it to him: "A leaf falls and you know autumn, and a little frost knows that winter is near."

Your Majesty is a very intelligent person, and he knows the truth that there is no invincible country outside, and there is no home to fight the eternal death of the country.

Therefore, he took the initiative to set off these waves, which made everyone in the court and officials in the world nervous.

Once they start to get nervous, they don't have to think about anything else, and now it's clear that if they are close to the royal family, they have to live, and in the future, all the people will flatter His Majesty, and the world will be peaceful. ”

Gently eating mutton skewers, he pointed to the document in Yun Chu's hand and said: "I'm afraid it's not a good thing to change the position of an official so frequently, and the possibility of someone dying will cause greater damage to the world." ”

Yun Chu said with a smile: Personnel is politics, looking for balance in chaos, looking for light in the darkness, Your Majesty's methods are not bad. ”

"Where do we go back when we go back?"

"I used to make a poem, and there is a sentence called "Spring River Plumbing Duck Prophet!"

Gentle smile: "Who is that duck?" ”

Yun Chu laughed and said, "Naturally, it's Di Renjie!" That duck is as smart as Di Renjie? ”

Gently nodded and said: "The guy who likes to break eucalyptus has a better sense of smell than a dog, he must have sensed a bad breath, so he pushed the boat to put the news that he was the prince on the surface."

So, after we go back, do we have to move closer to the prince on the bright side? ”

Yun Chu shook his head and said, "Let's move closer to the emperor." ”

"I remember you said before that our majesty is good at everything, but he doesn't have any responsibility.

Won't following him be used as a shield, or thrown out for the dead? ”

Yun Chu said: "The only one who can make the emperor back down by three points is our queen, as long as we don't stand on Your Majesty's side and offend the queen vigorously, we are actually safe."

You have to understand that since we joined the ranks, this queen has never offended us, and even one of the few people that the queen doesn't hate very much. ”

Gently stood up and stretched his waist and said, "In other words, we want to set up our officials to the end?" ”

Yun Chu waved his hand and said: "It is to carry out our plan to build Chang'an City and enrich Chang'an City to the end." ”

"Even if it's a lifetime of county magistrate?"

"Then be a county order for a lifetime, speaking of which, all the positions in Datang are better than Chang'an County Orders and Wannian County Orders.

Especially after the emperor and queen moved to Luoyang, these two positions will become even more difficult to find. ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, feeling like they had met a bosom friend in the mountains and rivers.

Naha dragged Zhuoma with one hand and the big food girl with the other, and after coming to Yun Chu, she unceremoniously took three roasted browned mutton skewers from the edge of the fire, and gave one to each of the other two, and while biting the mutton, she said to Yun Chu with a lake in her mouth: "Brother, do you say that there is really an Aladdin magic lamp in this world?" ”

Wen Rou saw that the mutton skewers were gone, so she said angrily: "You go to Li Hong, he is much better than Aladdin's magic lamp." ”
