Chapter 070 The general who told the old man to return to his hometown was difficult to peace
Yang Wanzhong stomped his feet and said:
"The old man is unwilling! I am ashamed to see General Guo Zhong being killed by the Turks here, and I can't avenge him until today. ”
Xiao Jingnong was silent for a moment and smiled bitterly:
"Revenge, huh... How easy it is to say that! The current situation is very unfavorable to us, only to endure the pain and lie down, waiting for the next opportunity, there is a way, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years. ”
"Old General Yang, you still understand your character in your later years, if you have anything to say, please feel free to command."
Yang Wanzhong said: "In recent years, the imperial court has negotiated peace and friendship with the Turks, and set up border trade markets, but I am worried that this situation will not last long." ”
"What kind of heart is the old general?" Xiao Jingnong said coldly, his expression was quite dissatisfied.
Yang Wanzhong disagreed, he stared at Xiao Jingnong and asked:
"Your shadow of Jiang Zuomeng has always been very well-informed about the news over there, if you have no objections, I can really leave with confidence!"
Xiao Jingnong smiled, his eyes looked away, but he stopped talking.
Yang Wanzhong knew that Xiao Jingnong at this time definitely didn't bother to say anything more to him.
"What does Lord Xiao mean that Yanmen will not stop?"
As a general guarding the frontier, he wishes for a long time to be safe and quiet in order to show his meritorious achievements.
Xiao Jingnong turned his head and said in a half-sarcastic tone:
"Wolves travel thousands of miles to eat meat, dogs travel thousands of miles to eat! Do you also believe that the Turkic barbarians will let Nanshan go? ”
Yang Wanzhong seemed to be self-mocking, he shook his head and said in a deep voice:
"The Turks, like all the Beihu people, are immortal in their desire to invade the Central Plains, but the old man can't see through it, and at present, the Eastern Turkic Khan is a vassal to the Final Jin, but the Western Turkic Khan and his sons don't think so."
Xiao Jingnong was silent for a moment, and said in a deep voice:
"Tuli Khan is because he is not strong, so the final Jin Dynasty is supporting him, and Princess Yixiang is blowing the wind on the pillow, as long as Tuli does not die these years, there will be no big fluctuations in the central and eastern parts of Northern Xinjiang, but his eldest son Dujibu is not a good person."
"Oh, Tuli can't die for the time being, so that the old man can go back with peace of mind, as a border guard, I will wait to complete the trust of the saint, hehe."
Yang Wanzhong was happy to take care of himself, he raised his eyes and saw that Xiao Jingnong was not very happy, and quickly closed his mouth.
He understood that as the Jiangzuo League of the Southern Dynasty, he wished that the final Jin Dynasty would continue to fight, which of course included border wars.
But as a Han Chinese, Xiao Jingnong does not want to be insulted by outsiders.
Therefore, people are like this, always in a tangle of contradictions.
"I heard that Ashina-Dujib won, and he defeated the other four brothers and took the right to succeed to the throne of the Eastern Turkic Great Khan." Xiao Jingnong said leisurely.
"Dughib won?" Shi Wanzhong muttered.
"This guy is more ambitious and strategic!"
Xiao Jingnong said with a little gloating expression:
"When he became a prince, he was ambitious, and he recruited troops everywhere to expand his army, intending to invade the Sui realm, although the Tuli Khan opposed it, but other ministers and large tribes supported it."
"This person is definitely the enemy of this dynasty, but this is not what the old man is worried about?" Yang Wanzhong said.
"Oh? So what is the old general worried about? ”
"Let's finally get inside, Guo Xiang and Guo Wei, father and son, are in danger."
"The old general, don't say it so arbitrarily, Guo Zhong is Guo Xiang's eldest son, you are still his lieutenant, why did you strip him out alone?" Xiao Jingnong was stunned for a moment, quite puzzled.
Xiao Jingnong understands that after all, Yang Wanzhong has been a general who has been defending Xinjiang for more than 20 years, and he has been favored by the Final Jin Dynasty for a long time.
To put it bluntly, they will not oppose the court from the bottom of their hearts.
Now, the reason why Yang Wanzhong is willing to help Xiao Jingnong and them is because they have a common mortal enemy, Guo Xiang and Guo Wei, father and son.
Could it be that Guo Zhong is different?
Yang Wanzhong shook his head, and stopped talking:
"Alas... It's hard to say, the old man is a person who has returned to his hometown, to be honest, what are you afraid of now... General Guo is a person who serves the country loyally, but unfortunately, he still encountered a plot! ”
"Hehe..."Xiao Jingnong looked at Yang Wanzhong with puzzled eyes, waiting for the following.
"A year ago, Guo Wei was appointed as the governor of Bingzhou, and this time Guo Xing was arranged to be the general of Yanmen, and the entire Bingzhou was completely controlled by the Guo family, didn't the imperial court notice and think?"
never thought that Yang Wanzhong had diverted the topic.
"This is a major national matter, is it a presumptuous discussion?" From Xiao Jingnong's impatient words, he was obviously quite dissatisfied with Yang Wanzhong's ambiguous position.
Yang Wanzhong knew that this was biased, and hurriedly laughed awkwardly:
"This topic is far away, the old man came today to explain two things to you."
As he spoke, he handed Xiao Jingnong a list, "This is the person I have left around Yanmen, Xiao Helm is the best to use, you can contact them at any time." ”
Xiao Jingnong took the roster and thanked him: "Thank you to the old general for sending charcoal in the snow, I will really need some peripheral manpower in the future." ”
"If there is something in the army, you can find Mao Xianzhi. He... You should always know him, after the old man leaves, you can contact him, I have arranged it! ”
"You handed him over the affairs of the Yanmen army?" Xiao Jingnong said in astonishment.
"If you don't give it to him, who else can you give it to?" Shi Wanzhong said:
"He has a certain ability to command the army, and he has cooperated with your side before, so he is a trustworthy person."
"This man's fighting methods are not bad, but his scheming is a little worse!" Xiao Jingnong said with a serious expression.
"The old man has confessed, don't worry!" Yang Wanzhong said:
"No matter what tricks Guo Wei wants to play here, as long as the two of us work together, we can ensure that Yanmen is worry-free."
"I hope so!"
Xiao Jingnong replied very coldly, but thought in his heart:
This Yang Wanzhong is always a rough man, and he thinks things too simply.
However, everything is always changing, so let's see.
Xiao Jingnong sneered, but he stood up and lifted the wine jug on the table.
Yang Wanzhong tacitly lined up two wine bottles from the table.
Xiao Jingnong filled the bottle with wine, and then took it up, "See off the old general today, don't leave here, please take care, I'm afraid we will have an indefinite meeting in the future!" ”
Yang Wanzhong also sighed sadly, thinking that it should indeed be indefinite.
It is unlikely that he will return to Yanmen Pass from his hometown in Liangzhou again.
The two drank it all, looked at each other for a moment, and suddenly laughed loudly.
In the midst of laughter, Yang Wanzhong turned around and walked downstairs, stepped on the war horse led by the guard, and walked out of the courtyard without looking back.
Seeing Shi Wanzhong walking away, a stunning woman walked out from behind the screen, "Big brother, this person is General Yang?" ”
Xiao Jingnong looked at Yang Wanzhong's back and said in a deep voice:
"Yes, he's leaving, and I'm calling you here today to let you see him, which can be regarded as a farewell! Because, he saved your life. ”
The stunning woman folded her hands, faced Yang Wanzhong's back, bowed and saluted, chanting words in her mouth, asking for the blessing of the Buddha.
The grace of saving lives, this is a great grace!
