Chastity Layman 2

Chapter 348 The Fifth Column
late at night.

Qin Lang sat under the lamp and wrote the secret book for the emperor. He had already written the memorial to the Ministry of War just now.In the document to the Ministry of War, he also counted all the achievements of the miscellaneous beards on the Fengzhou frontier army.

Cheng Chumo and Yuchi Baoqi naturally made the most contributions, but Qin Lang also gave them some credit for the Fengzhou Army who came later.

Of course, you can't say that when you write a secret book to the emperor now, you have to explain it truthfully.

This battle was a bit unexpected.

The miscellaneous beards acted both sides in the wind, and they all reported the truth, and they did not hide their record of beating dogs in the water afterwards.

Qin Lang also directly told the emperor that although this battle was a little unexpected, it was a good one, and now he was going to have another good encounter with Jieli.

Of course, this encounter is not about fighting, but about defending Dongshoujiang City and Shengzhou, taking advantage of the current cold season, and forcing Xieli to retreat when he is unable to fight.

Qin Lang greatly exaggerated the significance of this battle, saying that through this battle, not only did Yu She set up troops in Fengzhou join the Tang Dynasty, but also many Zahu tribes in Hetao began to fall to the Tang Dynasty.

Finish writing this envelope.

Qin Lang wrote to Qin Qiong again.

Before he sent troops, he had already written to Qin Qiong of Lingwu, explaining the unexpected battle ahead, and asked Qin Qiong to help him watch Fengzhou, and at the same time keep an eye on Liang Shidu in Shuofang.

Liang Shidu is now a trapped beast, but this battle may drive this guy crazy, so he has to be guarded against him.

If Master Liang dared to attack from behind Shengzhou, then he asked Qin Qiong to attack Yinzhou, his hometown, Xiazhou.

After finishing this letter, he wrote to Zhang Gongjin, governor of Daizhou, and Shi Liji, chief governor of Bingzhou, to the east of Shengzhou across the Yellow River, hoping that they would pay close attention to the west.

If Xieli really wanted to go all out regardless, then this is an opportunity to make meritorious service. I hope Zhang Gongjin and Li Ji can send troops to replace the North.

Pulled around and moved the whole body.

As soon as this battle started, it was no longer a small matter, it had already involved the entire frontier.

Although after repeated deduction by Qin Lang, it was predicted that this big fight would not happen, because the timing is not right now, in this season, small fights are fine, but neither Xieli nor Datang can bear a big fight.

But there must be a record for everything, for fear that others will go crazy and not follow the routine.

So once you get out of control, fight it out.

After writing several letters in a row, Qin Lang called Ah Huang and asked him to send someone to send these letters separately.

"Sanlang, are we really going to fight Jieli here?" Ah Huang was a little worried.

"Don't worry, it's just a matter of arrogance, we can't fight, as long as we don't flinch, and don't show up, Jieli won't dare to really fight."

Right now Qin Lang has [-] elite soldiers and several thousand Hu Xie troops, which already exceeds [-] people. This is basically the size of a standard field army in the Tang Dynasty.

In a real fight, Xieli has no advantage in guarding the three fortified cities of the surrendered city in a world of ice and snow.

As Qin Lang wrote in his letter to Li Ji and the others, if Jieli really dared to attack with all his strength, then Zhang Gongjin and Li Ji could send troops to take the place of the north, to attack Yuan Junzhang and Yang Zhengdao, who were supported by Jieli. The forces, these two forces are just puppet forces, and they have no strength in themselves. If Jieli is not behind, with the strength of Zhang Gongjin and Li Ji, they can completely beat them, and even directly go to Xieli's lair.

And Xieli couldn't count on Master Liang to be able to copy Qin Lang's retreat.

Master Liang has long been trapped and useless. In this season, Master Liang is really determined. He probably can't gather enough troops, food and grass to send troops. Even if he reluctantly goes out, Qin Qiong can raid his old lair and cut him off at any time.

Counting left and right, Qin Lang felt that he didn't have to be afraid of Xieli at all.

Unless he can't go out for three rounds under Xieli's hands, Xieli will be wiped out in one wave.

But he is still more confident.

"The sending of troops this time can be regarded as breaking the Weiqiao alliance, right? Jieli has endured this time, but I'm afraid he will come to fight next year when he is ready."

"The damage can't be blamed on us. It's the lunatic A Fuluo who made the old man into a wine vessel. We just opened a border market here and sent people to protect it." Qin Lang hehe Said.

If the enemy's hole card is counted, then this card will be played with more confidence.

No matter how Xieli is putting on airs, how he sends people to question and intimidate, Qin Lang will ignore it.

"This time, you Turks are the first to attack our border city of Tang Dynasty. Break the contract first. Don't talk nonsense about the rest. You tell Xieli, if he wants to fight, he will fight!"

Qin Lang drove away the Jieli envoy with one sentence.

Jieli Camp.

After hearing the messenger's reply, Jieli was furious.

"Fight, you have to fight if you don't fight!"

Persevere in thinking and persuading.

"Khan, right now is really not the season to send troops."

"You have to fight even if it's not the season for sending troops!"

"But most of the ministries are unwilling to obey orders and send troops!"

Qin Lang has been in Dongshou surrendered city for many days, but Jieli has not dispatched yet. The reason is that until now, many of Jieli's troops refused to send troops under orders.Waiting left and right, only [-] people gathered.

Jieli hoped to bring more soldiers over there, and it would be best to flatten the Dongshou surrendered city in one wave, and capture Qin Lang alive, but he was really not sure if there were [-] people. Wait to rush up and beat him.

If Qin Lang is just a bait, then it will be troublesome.

Of course, there is also the worry of the backyard. None of the guys like Tuli and Tuoshe have given orders. If he fights on the front line, these guys will come to copy his court, which will be dangerous.

Considering left and right, the result is that it is too late to send troops.

He sent several envoys to Dongshoujiang City, trying to force Qin Lang to withdraw his troops, return the Turkic captives, and ask for compensation, but this guy is stubborn.

Every time he said something tougher than his.

Now it is even more brazen to say that if you want to fight, you will fight.

This is a blatant challenge to him.

Otherwise, where will he put his sweaty face, and how will he order Tuli and Tuoshi those people in the future, not to mention, Yu Sheshe, a bastard who openly voted for Tang, he must get his back cover back! .

Clinging to Loss of Mind and Ashina Simo are relatively rational.

What happened this time was originally an internal conflict between Jieli and Yu Sheshe's uncle and nephew, because they were fighting over money and goods, but in the end Yu Sheshe was too greedy and Xieli was too persuasive.

Fortunately, Yu Sheshe first went to Lingwu to worship Qin Qiong as his father, and then went to Chang'an to worship the emperor, and in the end he was given a name and a princess.

A good internal dispute turned into an abrupt dispute that no one could have imagined.

What was even more unexpected was that when Emperor Tang sent a young man like Qin Lang to Fengzhou, he didn't act according to common sense when he first arrived. He not only comforted Yu She to set up troops, but also openly sent troops to Hetao.

He even sent a troop directly to the north of Shengzhou.

This has always been the former land boundary, and it has always been the territory directly controlled by Jieli. It's unreasonable for you to go directly to a place two or three hundred miles away from Khan's Court to build a city and garrison troops here?

Why did A Fuluo dare to send troops?

That was instructed by Xieli.

Originally, Jieli only intended to teach Qin Lang a small lesson, let alone break up the Dongshou surrendered city, so that Qin Lang could quit and not come back again.

No one could have imagined that this incompetent guy, Afuluo, had ten thousand people, but was wiped out by more than a thousand people.

Now Qin Lang was still afraid that the matter would be trivial, so he ran over in person and declared war on him directly.

What the hell are you talking about.

Strange things happen every year, but this year there are especially many.

Last year, he ran to Chang'an, but Li Shimin dared to negotiate with Jiuqi, forcing him to return without success.

Now this Qin Lang dared to persecute him like this.

This Qin Lang, Li Shimin rode the Linwei Bridge nine times last year, he seemed to be the only one.

Jieli was not convinced.

However, Ruzhi Shisili, Kang Shaoli, Simo and others are still relatively rational, and the matter has developed to this point, and they are completely out of control.

Qin Lang did not act according to common sense at all.

Take the initiative to pick things up, but also fully grasp the initiative.

Now they are being roasted on the fire, and it is not true to send troops, nor is it not to not send troops.

"Send the arrow of Ben Khan's order to all the tribes, and let them lead the troops!" Jie Li shouted with a dark face.

······
On behalf of the North.

In Heng'an City.

A Hu merchant knocked on a courtyard in the city.

"It's you?"

hall.

Daxingtai Yuan Junzhang's son Yuan Xiaozheng was very surprised to see the visitor.

"I heard that your father and son surrendered to Tang?" Yuan Xiaozheng asked.

"That's right, my father is now the King of Huaihua County in the Tang Dynasty, I am now Marquis of Jiuyuan, and I am now called Qin Jianchen."

Yuan Xiaozheng smiled wryly, "It seems that Jieli is really unpopular, even your father and son have voted for Tang Dynasty, what are you doing here?"

"When my grandfather Luo Khan was still in power, he took good care of your father. Your father used to obey orders under my father's account, and I have a good relationship with you." Qin Jianchen said.

"Yeah, it's been years." Yuan Xiaozheng said.

"I heard Brother Yuan has been persuading your father to return to Tang?"

"Yes, but you have also seen that I am now being dismissed from the military post by my father and placed under house arrest, with no way out!"

Yuan Xiaozheng's grandfather, Yuan Kan, was the governor of the state in the Sui Dynasty. The Yuan family was also a noble family from the north. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Yuan Junzhang joined the army with Liu Wuzhou, the captain of Mayi Yingyang, and later married Liu Wuzhou's sister. Liu Wuzhou was named Ding by the Turks. Yang Khan, who claimed to be the emperor, Yuan Junzhang was named the prime minister Neishi Ling.

After Liu Wuzhou was defeated, Yuan Junzhang and Liu Wuzhou fled to Turkic. Later, when Liu Wuzhou was planning to return to the south, Liu Wuzhou was killed, and Yuan Junzhang continued to lead the army instead of him.

Afterwards, Yuan Junzhang was appointed Daxingtai by Chuluo Khan, and sent his son Yushe to set up troops to station in the association.

Six years ago in Wude, Yuan and Yu She set up to capture the entire area outside Yanmen Pass.

Later, his subordinate general Gao Manzheng killed Yuan Junzhang's son and the Turkic people, captured Mayi and surrendered to Tang Dynasty.Yuan Junzhang then took Turkic soldiers and horses to capture Mayi, killed Gao Manzheng and his subordinates, and avenged his son.

Afterwards, the Tang army counterattacked, and Yuan Junzhang was forced to abandon Mayi and retreat to Yunzhong Heng'an.

However, Yuan Junzhang's subordinates were all brought from the Central Plains by Liu Wuzhou. For a long time, they didn't want to live this kind of life outside the Great Wall, and they didn't want to be the puppets of the Turkic people. towards.

Over the years, many subordinates left the Yuan family and went south to join the Tang Dynasty.

Yuan Xiaozheng persuaded his father to vote for Tang several times.

Yuan Junzhang has been hesitating all the time, and later he was explained by Yuan Xiaozheng, and he also contacted Tang Emperor Li Yuan. Li Yuan also sent someone to give him an iron coupon to avoid death, and promised to make him king.

Only later, some generals persuaded him that the Turks were flourishing, and Tang was defeated by the Turks several times. If he voted for Tang, he might end up just like Du Fuwei and others.

Yuan Junzhang finally repented and captured Li Yuan's envoy and sent him to the Turkic Khan Court.

His move caused many subordinates to leave, and even many generals wanted to support his son Yuan Xiaozheng to rebel and defect to the Tang Dynasty. As a result, it was not confidential. Yuan Junzhang killed many conspirators and arrested his son.

"I know that Brother Yuan has many supporters in your father's army. As long as Brother Yuan is willing to stand up, we are willing to help. After the matter is completed, we will lead the army to vote for Tang, and we will not lose wealth. If this continues, we can only Fearing that the father and son will be killed, the Yuan family will also perish."
