Quietly looking at Fang Chongyong, who was trimming his nails with a small file, Zhang Tongru couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and was so nervous that he picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip of tea to stabilize his nervous mood.

It's impossible for him not to be nervous, if he can't grasp the opportunity in front of him, then his future will be bleak, and there will even be no future at all!

"At the beginning, An Lushan actually had a chance not to die, so I strongly opposed his opinion, thinking that it was better to take the Hanoi Road to Hebei.

But at the time of Fenglingdu, An Lushan used the method of Zoroastrianism to divinate himself, saying that it was good to go north to Taiyuan, so the two of us divided the army.

I let the march as a cover along the way, and he took a part of his soldiers and horses north to Taiyuan to walk the Bird Mouse Valley. ”

Zhang Tongru said slowly.

Fang Chongyong suddenly asked, "How is Zoroastrian divination played?" ”

Is this kind of thing important?

Zhang Tongru was strange in his heart, and he didn't understand why Fang Chongyong asked this, but he still said the matter of the "Joy Roll".

This kind of divination needs to draw a star map of the day on March 3 every year, and then cooperate with two bone dice and mysterious spells, how to operate, Zhang Tongru is not very clear.

Fang Chongyong nodded thoughtfully and said, "It's really self-inflicted, and you can't live." Go on, there is no need to say these stupid and stupid words about An Lushan. ”

He obviously didn't care at all about how An Lushan died!

But then again, An Lushan's fortune teller counted himself to death, and Fang Chongyong felt that this was indeed a strange flower!

"An Lushan, in fact, has always been against him in private, and he is making some unspeakable preparations.

He wantonly excluded dissidents and cronyism in Pinglu Town, and had a large group of cronies under him. ”

Zhang Tongru said in a low voice.

"That's it?"

Fang Chongyong was stunned, he didn't expect Zhang Tongru to be so naïve! Now the border town festival makes which one is not nepotism!

Besides, An Lushan's plot to rebel is indeed a big deal, but the value of this secret is limited to when An Lushan is still alive.

People are dead, and they still make a fart! The so-called witness evidence is insignificant.

Hearing Fang Chongyong's dissatisfaction, Zhang Tongru hurriedly waved his hand and said with a little excitement: "Fang Jieshuai, don't worry, I haven't said the key yet." ”

Fang Chongyong nodded noncommittally, silently, and hinted that Zhang Tongru continued.

"I know which people in Pinglu Town have a close relationship with An Lushan, and in the future, Fang Jieshuai will take me by my side, and I will show you the opportunity. No, today I will write out the list of these people for Fang Jieshuai's reference, as well as some secrets about them. ”

Zhang Tongru knelt on the ground, kowtowed and pleaded.

I have to say, it's still a bit appealing. In the future, it will help you to take over the political legacy of An Lushan.

"It's kind of interesting...... But it's not enough. ”

Fang Chongyong put the file into his cuffs, and then looked at Zhang Tongru calmly and said.

Zhang Tongru, who was kneeling on the ground, didn't speak, and didn't dare to raise his head so that Fang Chongyong could see his expression.

He didn't want to throw all the chips out of his hand in one go. Things like unloading the mill and killing donkeys have happened too much in the past.

The situation is deadlocked.

"There is only one word that you need in this section: loyalty!

And loyalty comes at a price. Men don't care about loyalty, the reason why they are loyal is because they don't give enough bargaining chips for betrayal!

This section can give you the opportunity to soar and buy your loyalty.

You also have to prove your value to this section commander, isn't that true?

Think about what else you have to say. After this village, there is no such shop. ”

Fang Chongyong stood up, looked at Zhang Tongru who was kneeling on the ground, and said coldly, he was ready to leave.

"Fang Jieshuai, when An Lushan was in Chang'an before, he colluded with several princes, especially Yongwang Li Lan!

They all wrote secret letters to An Lushan, and I hid these letters not far from Wulan Pass, in a place called Buffalo Village, on the right bank of the Yellow River!

Exactly where in the village, I can take the handsome people to find it! ”

Zhang Tongru finally threw out the biggest chip in his hand.

It is not only Yongwang Li Lan who has dealings with An Lushan, but Li Lan is the most rampant and unscrupulous, and he is also the prince with the highest bid!

However, Zhang Tongru did not say where the letters were in the buffalo village.

In fact, this village was also built by the Tang Dynasty government to protect a pontoon bridge, not far south of Ulan Pass. The villagers are all retired soldiers, and their families live there.

"In addition to King Yong, is there actually a prince involved?"

Fang Chongyong folded his arms, paced in the signing room, and said to himself. The news came from what he had expected.

"Hui Jieshuai, it's true, there are at least four or five. Because An Lushan has no foundation, it is easier to win over.

But I'm not sure if those princes colluded with other Jiedu envoys, and it is very possible that they stepped on two boats at a time, or even on multiple boats. ”

Zhang Tongru said in a low voice.

"This section commander will now ask He Laohu to take a team of silver-speared filial piety soldiers to Buffalo Village with you, get these letters here, and you will follow me in the future."

Fang Chongyong lifted the thin Zhang Tongru up and stood up, patted the dust on his body and said.

"Thank you Fang Jieshuai! Thank you Fang Jieshuai! ”

Zhang Tongru looked excited, the Fang Jieshuai in front of him was much easier to talk than the "Fang Lao Jieshuai", at least at this moment, he had similar thoughts.

"He Laohu!"

"Marshal, what do you command?"

He Changqi hurriedly walked into the signing room and asked with a forked hand.

"Take him to the buffalo village south of Ulan Pass, and then get his things and come back.

If he plays any tricks on the road, he doesn't have to talk nonsense if he kills him directly. ”

Fang Chongyong pointed to Zhang Tongru, who was trembling on the side, and said.

"Please rest assured, the end will be done!"

He Changqi clenched his fists and said, then glanced at Zhang Tongru, who shivered, obediently followed behind him, and left the signing room together.

After everyone left, Fang Chongyong knelt in front of the bookcase, thinking about the changes in the political situation.

Although he didn't care at all in front of Zhang Tongru, in fact, the information provided by this person was very valuable for reference.

At the beginning, Fang Chongyong talked to Fang Youde about a problem: if An Lushan in the Anshi Rebellion could not be fought at all, or if Tang Ting did not die, and used suitable generals to lead troops without deliberately sending them, then the main battle of counterinsurgency should be over in one to two years.

So there is a question here, in addition to An Lushan's poor health and having to rebel, why didn't he seek the "optimal solution", that is: find a reliable prince and play Xuanwumen like Taizong?

In fact, the answer is that Brother Ji has already told Fang Chongyong and Fang Youde with actions.

All the princes were "imprisoned" in the Ten Princes' Mansion, and they were all raised as fat pigs as fools, who had lost their investment value, or had no chance of getting the "angel investment" of their courtiers at all.

In this way, only two results will be produced.

The first is that these princes are honestly kept as pigs, and eating them every day is counted as a day.

The second is a low-level power struggle, taking advantage of the opportunity of Ji Ge's nap, using a very small number of forbidden troops to seize power, and playing the "Xuanwumen Inheritance Law".

Therefore, angel investors such as An Lushan's generation couldn't pull the "project", so they had to forcibly set up the project by themselves, and the net was broken.

Now Brother Ji has adopted the method of blocking rather than sparse, and the mode of collusion between the prince and the courtiers is controlled within a limited range, so there is a new way to play the game.

An Lushan's collusion with many princes was the beginning of this new game.

However, thinking about it from another angle, Ji Ge used this method to slow down the vicious fighting in the political center of Chang'an City, so as not to say that every minister is regarded as a rebel and strictly controlled. There is no need to engage in the kind of drama of "the prime minister fighting the prince".

It can be said that there are pros and cons to the two models, and the key is how to balance the interests of all parties.

The feudal dynasty has its own national conditions, and there is no such thing as a perfect system.

"Lao Fang, do you think that the cause of the Tang Dynasty has been completed and you can rest.

But I feel that the real fight has not yet begun! ”

Fang Chongyong couldn't help but sigh and said to himself.

At the moment when Datang is about to enter its peak, it is too hard to be a person who understands.

Only those demons who are determined to be prosperous in the Tang Dynasty for thousands of generations are the lucky ones of this era.

When everyone is laughing, you cry alone, even if you cry for a reason, you will be regarded as an outlier and alienated by everyone.

Suppressing the distracting thoughts in his heart, Fang Chongyong spread out the map of the Western Regions, took out a "magnifying glass", and observed the names and lines on the map.

There are many types of maps in Datang, and there are many versions.

What he is holding in his hand now is the official map of the Western Regions from the Ministry of Industry, no matter how you look at it, this map is the super-standard level of this era and even the feudal era, which is rare.

Fang Chongyong saw from the map that the west of Dunhuang was a large desert, and this uninhabited area separated the two protectorates of Anxi and Beiting.

Walking northwest from Guazhou, you will arrive at the first stop in the Western Regions, Yizhou (Hami), the northwest of Yizhou is the territory of Beiting Duhufu, and the southwest is Xizhou (Gaochang).

After arriving in Xizhou, due west is the Anzai Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Guizi, and due north is the North Courtyard Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture. These places are firmly controlled by the Tang Dynasty, and the local households are all in the hands of the people, and the proportion of Han people is large, and they can be used as logistics bases.

However, radiating further to the west, it is not the absolute control area of Datang, and the places under its control are all specific small countries and small cities, like stars scattered in the night sky.

Elsewhere, caravans, vagrants, bandits, and more can be found everywhere, and their identities can change at any time, and the rules of the game are very different from those of farming.

Even the rules are different from those on the steppe!

In other words, Fang Chongyong swept through the Western Regions with one or two thousand Tang army elite cavalry, although no one dared to provoke him, but people may not cooperate with his actions!

To fight a war here, the first thing to do is to engage in a united front, and the various ethnic groups in the Western Regions, and even the Turkic or Tiele people in the steppe, if the strength of these forces can be unified, it is enough to influence the pattern of victory and defeat. The second is to run thousands of miles, whether you succeed or not, you can't stay in one place and wait for death, you need to quickly withdraw to the supply area, waiting for the next opportunity.

The special geography determines the special style of play, one person and one horse is the basic configuration, and the elite who is responsible for opening the road even needs one person and two horses.

"There is no such thing as a casual success."

After looking at the map of the Western Regions for an hour, Fang Chongyong received it into a box dedicated to storing important maps and letters, stood up and stretched.

"No wonder the most important technology of this era is the killing technique of ten thousand enemies. I can see it. ”

He couldn't help but muttered to himself with emotion.

Whether it's playing with friends or making trouble, or making trouble, in fact, the gold content can never compare to leading troops to fight, and being stubborn and stubborn determines the life and death of all people.

Fang Chongyong chose to expedition to the Western Regions, and he had already picked the softest soft persimmon. Rao was like that, and he never felt relaxed.

With a sharp blade, the murderous heart rises!

How could a commander of Qiu Ba, who was invincible, stubborn, and had worked hard to kill the top position, tolerate someone like Brother Ji who had never even touched the knife a few times to point fingers!

Lao Tzu was born and died in the border town, not to let you insects ride on Lao Tzu's head and!

At this moment, Fang Chongyong understood why in the time and space of his previous life, An Lushan would finally choose to rebel.

He estimated that he might be able to talk about it in the future, or most likely follow the old path of An Lushan.

Because of being Qiu Ba, there is no way back, and there is only one way to go to the dark.

Even if Fang Chongyong is willing to put down the knife in the future, then others must be willing to believe it!

Just when Fang Chongyong was thinking wildly, He Changqi walked in front with a box, Zhang Tongru cautiously followed behind, and the two entered the signing room.

He Changqi kept smiling on his face, and his mouth was about to crack, obviously he had gained a lot.

"Fang Jieshuai, I found it! It's all here! ”

He Changqi gently put the box in his hand on the table, suppressed the excitement in his heart and said.

Fang Chongyong weighed it, although the volume is not large, but the weight is not light! There must be precious metals in it!

When he opened it, he saw that there were many land deeds, copper seals, copper keys, letters, and golden Buddhas in the box, all of which seemed to be treasures that could not be directly "realized".

Zhang Tongru explained to Fang Chongyong: "The title deed and the Golden Buddha were given by those princes. Of course, there must be others behind the prince, but I don't know who they are. Some of the title deeds are from Hebei or even Youzhou, and obviously these people don't seem so simple. Their power is strong! ”

"Well, that's good!

In the future, you wear a mask in front of people, and this section commander will call you Mr. Zhang.

He Laohu, you are the same. ”

Fang Chongyong pointed at Zhang Tongru and said.

Hearing this, Zhang Tongru was overjoyed, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed like pounding garlic! He was still worried that his identity could not be revealed, but he didn't expect Fang Chongyong to be ready a long time ago.

"You should understand that your identity will die when you see the light."

Fang Chongyong reminded Zhang Tongru in a deep voice.

"I understand, I understand! In the future, he will definitely die for the festival handsome, and he will never have two hearts! ”

Zhang Tongru was so excited that he shed tears and sprinkled them on the stone slab of the signing room!

An Lushan died, but he didn't die! That's a blessing! That's luck!

At this moment, Zhang Tongru finally believed that there was a god three feet above his head!

"Hmph, you guys step back first, sort things out separately, this section has things to do."

Fang Chongyong waved his hand without smiling, He Changqi and Zhang Tongru hurriedly retreated, closed the door and left quietly.

"Interesting, An Lushan's connections are very extensive."

Fang Chongyong sneered as he took out a letter from it and read it, it was the one written by Yongwang Li Luan.

In the letter, Li Luan promised An Lushan that the day he ascended to the throne in the future would be when An Lushan served as the generalissimo of the Tang Dynasty, and he would be above 10,000 people under one person!

Random promises to draw big cakes can be said to be good at everything, and it is impossible to fulfill them in the future at a glance.

If An Lushan really believes in Li Luan, I am afraid that in the end, it will be a beautiful funeral.

Originally, Fang Chongyong felt that such a letter was very naïve, but he thought about it again, now that Yongwang Li Lan has a request for someone, he naturally dares to agree to anything, anyway, the cub is not distressed to sell Yetian.

And was An Lushan fooled by King Yong? Of course, it is impossible, he pretended to agree, and secretly prepared with both hands, in fact, it was also the right intention.

Fool each other, this is love!

Where is there who deceives whom?

Fang Chongyong couldn't help but sneer, and put the letter from the Eternal King Li Lan into the box.

He also found the letters of Li Wan, the king of Yi, Li Pu and others, but these princes did not dare to write as much as Li Luan, nor did they make promises like Li Lushan, but only expressed their appreciation and worship for An Lushan.

These green teas are not as tiger as Li Lan, but the attitude of flirting and hooking up is also overflowing.

"Damn, there is no prince to buy me, is this looking down on me?"

Thinking of this stubble, Fang Chongyong couldn't help but scold.
