Kusaki River, the garrison of the Arashi Defense Envoy.
Chi Zhong inspects the barracks.
As soon as he returned to the mansion, Xiao Chen, the deputy general who greeted him under the corridor, stepped forward, took the horsewhip from his hand, and saluted: "My lord." ” Chi Zhong sighed, walked towards the gate of the mansion, Xiao Chen hurriedly followed, and said: "My lord, the salary has been delayed for more than a month over there in Fugu, and the sergeants have a lot of complaints, this year has not yet been harvested, and a batch of grain and grass will be requisitioned on the Fugu side, and our life here is not easy." ” The sun was in the sky, the house was full of green trees, knowing that the trees were chirping endlessly, Chi Zhong was upset for a while, he pulled his clothes, exposed his chest and breathed, and said impatiently: "It's just a month, who can't open the pot at home, Dashuai won't drag your salary and silver away."
Speaking of which, life is not easy on the handsome's side, and we have to worry about the handsome.
I'll just get through this for a while.
Speaking of grain and grass, the grain on our side should be enough to eat until next winter, and there are some difficulties on the Fugu side, so let's allocate a batch of grain and grass to the past. ” "Yes, yes," Xiao Chen responded one after another, and as Chi Zhong entered the flower hall, the guards and entourage all retreated, and then lowered their voices and said: "Dashuai, Daizhou was short of grain last year, and Dashuai transported our accumulated grain and made a lot of money, and this year has not yet been harvested, and this deficit has not been made up." ” Chi Zhong glared at him and said, "Nonsense, don't you know that there are many people outside, and there are some important things not to say on the road." ” While unloading his armor, he walked around the hall, muttered for a long time, threw the heavy chain mail on the chair with a loud bang, and beckoned to Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen hurriedly approached, and Chi Zhong whispered: "Now that most of the business travelers do not pass through the territory of our prefecture, and the depression of all industries involved, there are some difficulties on the side of Fugu, if we pass the buck clearly, it will not succeed."
In this way, hasn't the food and salary been delayed for more than a month, and you have taken advantage of this matter to encourage the soldiers to make some trouble.
I came forward to suppress it again, and when I turned around, I said to the marshal that in order to appease the army's heart, part of the grain stock was replenished and distributed, so the grain was not enough to allocate the valley, so that the marshal could also explain the past. ” "Your Excellency is wise and scheming."
Xiao Chen lost no time in patting his ass, and when he saw Chi Zhong turn around and pick up the herbal tea and pour it violently, he hurriedly came to him again, and said in a low voice: "My lord, there is another person from Bianliang." ” Chi Zhong was stunned when he heard this, and slowly sat down on the chair, Xiao Chen hurriedly leaned forward and said: "My lord, here in Fuzhou, after adjustment, even if it can cope with the current tight situation, I am afraid that it will not be as prosperous as in the past, and now who doesn't know that Yang Hao's territory is full of wealth Even Li Yuchang, who is the pro-frequency of the handsome family, now runs to Yang Hao's territory, and opens three businesses in one breath."
According to the humble opinion, the future of Fuzhou is not bright. ” Chi Zhong frowned and remained silent.
Xiao Chen hurriedly turned to the other side of him, and then said: "My lord, the envoy over there said that the official family has always been very important to your lord, if your lord can make up his mind to serve the imperial court, after the matter is completed, this Baode military envoy will be yours." ” Chi Zhong's body was shocked, and he exclaimed: "This is true" Xiao Chen hurriedly said: "Naturally, take it seriously, the official family is the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, once the Son of Heaven, that is the golden mouth and jade words, how can there be a reason to go back on your word, the Lord has worked hard and made great achievements, but with the Folding Dashuai, this defense envoy will come to an end, what else can there be Your Excellency, let's make friends with the court in private, in case it is known by the marshal, even if the lord has no second heart, he will be dismissed by the marshal."
Now that the court has promised your Excellency great benefits, your Excellency, you should have made a decision a long time ago. ” "My lord, the future is at your fingertips, what should you hesitate about?"
Chi Zhong stood up and walked around the room, his face cloudy and uncertain, always hesitating.
Half an hour later.
He paused in his footsteps, looked back and said, "Where is the imperial envoy now?"
Xiao Chen hurriedly said: "I still pretend to be a lowly relative and live in the lowly mansion." ” Chi Zhong gritted his teeth and said, "Tonight, this official will go to your house to drink, um" Xiao Chen comprehended and hurriedly said: "The lowly position understands, the lowly position will be properly arranged, and we are waiting for the arrival of the adults tonight." ” Xiao Chen retreated, and as soon as he walked out of the flower hall, a treacherous touch flashed in his eyes.
In the hall, Chi Zhong looked up at the roof Chengchen, and after a long time, Fang Shen said: "Fold, people go to high places."
Fugu, Baihuawu.
Zhi Yuxun was full of anger: "Nonsense, what nonsense, Uncle Jiu, where did this girl Ziyu go?"
The Ninth General with a clear face smiled bitterly: "Yuxun, Ziyu, this girl is a single person, she doesn't want people to find her, who can find her, this is the news she sent back."
The news initially came from the territory of Suizhou.
In the letter, she only mentioned a few suggestions to improve the predicament of our prefecture, and reported to her family that she was safe, telling us that we did not need to look for her, and that she wanted to go out for a walk alone and relax.
Although the news came from Suizhou, but now that she has been working so hard, I don't know where she went and how to find him."
Zhi Yuxun grabbed the letter from his little sister, gritted his teeth while reading it, and threw the letter on the ground after reading it. asked, "She didn't say anything about how to find her if we had any problems."
General Jiu said: "Ziyu left a message, if there is any unclear about her suggestion, you can send a secret letter to the wind, and on the fifteenth day of this month, she will go to get it." ” Zhi Yuxun frowned and said, "Can you arrange people everywhere, as soon as she shows up, I will arrest her back" General Nine smiled bitterly: "How is it possible that many of our intelligence points are located in Dacheng Dafu, or pharmacies, or Qinglou, or tea shops, how can it be possible to arrange for people to take her away in a big way?"
Zhen Yuxun frowned, and sighed: "She is a young daughter, and she was born with a beautiful face.
I don't bring a single attendant, I go out alone, in case something happens, this" Zhi Yuxun wandered around for a long time, leaned over and picked up the letter sent back by Zhen Ziyu, unfolded it and looked at it carefully, turned around and walked behind the bookcase.
Fold Yuxun unfolded the letterhead, lifted the pen, and groaned slightly, then wrote a letter in a free and easy manner, which described in detail the situation that Yang Hao was worried about after she left, and once Yang Hao dominated the Western Regions, after the family and the city were attached, the secret alliance oath that could be sealed hereditary to replace the king of Zhelan was also told to Ziyu, Xiaozhi persuaded with emotion and reason, and it was okay to take a closer look, so he got up and handed it to General Jiu, and said: "Uncle Jiu, compile this letter into a secret text and distribute it everywhere. ” Liangzhou, the land is fertile and the grains are especially suitable for wheat and rice, there is no risk of drought and flood in the year, especially in the world of animal husbandry.
Since the Han Dynasty set up a county here, Liangzhou has seven counties under its jurisdiction, and has been operating for many years.
The population is large, the products are abundant, and it is known as the saying of 100,000 households in the seven cities of Liangzhou.
In addition to Liangzhou's own advantages, it is also the first town to advance westward to seize the Hexi Corridor, and its military position is also very important.
There are seven cities here, which are occupied by the three forces.
After Li Guangrui's death, the Qiang people in the place were temporarily autonomous, and when Yang Hao's forces gradually moved westward, they subdued the cities of the Helan Mountains one by one, and stationed troops in Lingzhou, and the Qiang people who guarded Jialin and Changsong in Liangzhou surrendered to Yang Hao, so Yang Hao had a vanguard here.
In addition to the Dangxiang Qiang people who occupy Liangzhou, there are also the Tubo Liugu Domain, the Liugu Fan Department is Luo Dan's clan, Luo Dan's patriarch accepts Yang Hao's assistance, in fact, he is already his pawn, and now the orthodox soldiers are fighting with the Longyou Shang Boqian and other tribes, and their territory here naturally surrenders to Yang Hao, so that Yang Hao's first step into Liangzhou in the west, the soldiers are not bloody, they have occupied five cities, only Guzang and Shenniao are left in the two counties, and the people who occupy these two cities are also Tubo people, but they are not subject to the jurisdiction of the Liugu Domain.
In the Chinese army, Zhang Pu unfolded the map and said: "Boss, please see, Guzang and Shenniao are the most important cities in the seven cities of Xiliang, with a total of more than 7,300 households and a population of more than 36,000, including 300 Han people, 1,100 Qiang people, and about 200 people of the rest of the ethnic groups, in addition to the Tubo people.
Occupying this place is the Tubo Dachang Department, the leader is called Luorong Dengba, and is now stationed in Guzang City.
Guzang City, Han name Wolong City, seven miles from north to south, three miles from east to west, is built by the Xiongnu time, and the locals call it the city of building birds. ” Yang Hao smiled slightly, how many households are in the city, how much is the composition, can be understood in such detail and accurately, this kung fu is not less, Fei Yu tried the knife, and the results were extraordinary.
Yang Hao asked: "The city is still strong, how many soldiers are there in the city, and how is this Luorong Demba person?"
Zhang Pu said: "The two cities are both small cities, although they have been repaired and strengthened for many years, they are not precipitous.
The standing army of the Dachang tribe is less than 2,000 people, but the men and women of the whole tribe are good at riding and shooting, and everyone can go into battle to fight.
This Luorong Demba is not bad, because next to it is the powerful Xiazhou Li Clan, the Liugu Fan Tribe, and the strong horses, so he has always been kind to others, and it is not very harsh to exploit the people, and he has no ambition to defend himself according to the two cities," Yang Hao frowned and said: "Yes, in the northwest region, but in the event of a war, men, women and children, agriculture, animal husbandry and industry and commerce, can all be used as people to control the strings, it seems that there are few people, if you want to gather troops, it is a hundred times easier than the Central Plains."
Parents, wives and children are all in battle, it is even more concerted efforts, united as one, although I can fight these two cities, but after a bloody battle, I am afraid there are not many people left in the city.
My purpose is to revitalize the ancient road of the Western Regions, but I don't want to kill all the way to a river of blood and be a butcher in Hexi.
This velvet demba has no ambitions, and he is not a vicious person, but he can force him to surrender if he can control them, and if he can control them, he will try to avoid creating hatred.
Our proclamation has been sent into the city, is this velvet Demba any intention to surrender?"

Zhang Pu said: "He was sent to the city the day before yesterday, and all the forces in the city that we can influence are also putting pressure on him, and now he has neither refused nor agreed, Dashuai, do you wait for him to give a clear answer."
Yang Hao groaned slightly, and said: "Ling Muen, Mu Kui, Ai Yihai, plus the heavy armored cavalry formation and the Mo sword formation, take turns to perform the martial arts formation under Guzang City, since he can't make up his mind, let's help him again." ” Zhang Pu smiled heartily, hugged his fists and said: "The last general will obey the order" Tashi Dorjee lay on the grass fence and nervously watched the movement in the distance.
Behind him, there was a tense atmosphere in Guzang City, all the shops were closed, the doors were closed, and there was no sound.
In the streets, only groups of samurai armed with swords and arrows hurried to and fro.
The tension in the city also affected Tashi Dorjee's mood, and his face was as pale as paper when he saw the teams of men and horses galloping back and forth across the grassland, smiling proudly.
He had seen many armies, the Tibetans and the Dangxiang, and had fought with them, and no matter whose army they were, they were as fierce as tigers and wolves, but there was obviously a significant difference between the army in front of him and them.
They are as fierce, as fierce, and at the same time uniform, advance and retreat as one, so in the fierce momentum like splashing the sky, there is a unique momentum of slaughter, majestic as a mountain, as quiet as the mountain, as moving as the mountain of the tilt.
He knew that Yang Hao replaced Li Guangrui, and many of the troops under his command were originally from Li Guangrui's Xiazhou soldiers, but he did not expect that in two years, Li Guangrui's soldiers would have the effect of being reborn in Yang Hao's hands.
A group of fierce tigers crisscrossing the grassland is a source of despair.
But if it is a herd of meek grass-eating bison, once frightened and galloping, its irresistible power is not weaker than that of a group of fierce tigers, or even surpasses.
However, what would it be like if thousands of tigers suddenly commanded like a herd of bison?
A team of horses, with a thunderous whistling retreat, a moment of effort, another team of cavalry, horses fat and strong, strong and powerful, the extreme of the horse, with the sound of drums, they are violent, fast but not chaotic, unified standard clothing, unified standard weapons, three people, in an instant, gathered into a strong iron flow, all brushed in the Guzang city calmly galloped.
Although such a rapid assembly and such a strict military appearance have no effect on the battle array, at most it is used to review the honor guard, but it can have such an efficiency, which proves that this tiger and wolf cavalry has strict military discipline, they are not only strong individual combat power, but also well-trained, then the terrible of this army can be imagined.
This team has not disappeared from view, and an even more terrifying team has appeared.
Their horses were even more majestic and tall than the cavalry team just now, and they were rare big food horses, such horses, one or two horses he had ever seen, but thousands of big food horses gathered in a formation, and it was the first time he had seen them.
The black horse, the black armor, and the black cloak are like a black giant.
There is a white plague on the grassland, a black plague, this cavalry is rolling here, it is simply a man-made black plague, with a huge momentum of stepping on everything, when they walked closer, Tashi Dorjee found that they were not only wearing strange patterns of armor on their heads, but even the horses were wearing iron armor.
Then, he found that behind the cavalry phalanx was a grove of knives.
He had never seen such a huge war knife, held in the hands of a group of ironclad foot soldiers, forming the appearance of a mountain of swords.
But he knew what it was almost instantly, the Mo Dao Formation that the grassland knights were most afraid of when they gathered and charged, how many grassland warriors were once strangled and smashed by people and horses in such a huge array, and they had no martial arts at all.
Tashi Dorjee was clever and shivered, hurriedly jumped back a few steps, climbed down the dirt fence with a rolling belt, jumped on a fast horse, and ran towards Guzang City in a puff of smoke.
"Big brother, big brother, Xiazhou soldiers are strong and strong, and they are invincible."
Tashi Dorjee ran back to his eldest brother's mansion Qingliang City in a panic, his sister-in-law was drinking tea in the small hall next to the Chenghua Well built by Zhang Huan, the Taishou of Wuwei Taishou in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and hurriedly greeted him when she heard the voice: "Tashi Dorjee, your eldest brother went to Luoshi Temple to ask for the living Buddha, what is happening now, is the Qiang soldier invincible?"
Tashi Dorjee didn't have time to say more, and hurriedly said, "I'll go find my eldest brother."
Then he turned around and ran out, fled on his horse, and went straight to the Rosh Temple.
There are many temples in the city of Guzang, among which the famous ones are the Hongzang Temple built by Liangzhou Mu Zhang Tianxi in the Jin Dynasty, and it was renamed Dayun Temple when Wu Zetian was in power.
The presiding officer was the disciples of Zen Buddhism in the Central Plains, and there was also a Haizang Temple, which was built by Zhang Mao, who established himself as king in Liangzhou more than 400 years ago.
Another one is the Rosh Temple, which preaches the Esoteric Dharma, and is the place where the holy monk Kumarosh of the Qiuzi Kingdom preached.
Kumarosh was born noble, his father was a famous queen of Tianzhu, and his mother was the younger sister of King Qiuzi.
Kumarosh was extremely intelligent at an early age, became a monk with his mother at the age of seven, and became an adult who was well versed in Buddhism and especially the scriptures.
During the sixteen years of detention in Liangzhou, he advanced his Buddhism and spoke fluent Chinese, and was later invited to Middle-earth as a senior monk in the Western Regions, where he translated 35 Buddhist scriptures and nearly 300 volumes of scriptures with his profound insights into Buddhism.
Nowadays, the owner of this Luoshi Temple, is the most famous living Buddha in Liangzhou, Luorong Demba's father is devout to the Buddha, gave birth to two sons and a daughter, all of them asked the living Buddha of Luoshi Temple to give its name, and now the city lord of Liangzhou Luorong Dengba translated into Chinese is the meaning of the wisdom Buddha, Tashi Dorjee is the auspicious King Kong, and their sister Zeren Ram is the meaning of the goddess of longevity.
Luorong Demba worships under the main seat of the Rosh Temple, and every time there is a major event, he often asks the living Buddha of the temple owner.
Tashi Dorjee is also a disciple of the living Buddha, to the temple to abandon the reins and dismount, into the temple, but did not dare to hurry like a spark, only under the guidance of the lama monk to follow the rules and go straight to the Buddha hall, to the main hall, is to see the eldest brother Luorong Demba is reverently kneeling on the futon to listen to the living Buddha's instructions, Tashi Dorjee did not dare to slack off, busy and respectfully stepped forward, bowed to the living Buddha, knelt and sit, and listened quietly.
"Yang Hao, the reincarnation of Nai Gang Jin Gongbao, I teach the Dharma King.
This time, he raised troops to march westward and reopened the Xiliang Ancient Road, which was to use thunderbolt means to spread mercy and rain, which was a great merit and ominous.
Luorong Dengba, with your strength, it is difficult to defeat Yang Haoxi into the iron cavalry, for today's plan, the only way to surrender the city is to beg to surrender in order to keep the wealth. ” The Living Buddha said, glanced at Tashi Dorjee, and asked slowly, "Tashi Dorjee, what do you have to say?"
Tashi Dorjee hurriedly knelt down and said: "Living Buddha, Tashi Dorjee went out of the city to look, and saw that the Xiazhou army was strong and strong, and the momentum was like a rainbow, which was not the enemy of my Guzang City."
As he was about to return, he told his brother what I had seen. ” The Living Buddha smiled slightly, waved his hand and said: "Luorong Demba, this is the Pure Land of Buddhism, I don't smell the spirit of swords, you brothers go out and talk about it." ” Luorong Demba said prostrately: "Yes, I don't know what other instructions the living Buddha has."
The living Buddha rubbed his top with his palm and said leisurely: "You are the lord of Guzang City, whether Guzang City is burned in the war and flames, or it is auspicious."
It's all in your thoughts.
One thought can become a Buddha, one thought can also become a demon, for the teacher's words are all here, where to go, you decide for yourself. ” "Yes, follow the teachings of the Living Sect."
Luorong Demba and Tashi Dorjee kowtowed three times and retreated with bated breath.
As soon as the two left, a person turned out behind the Buddha platform, the black gauze was lifted, hung on the top of the hat, with bright eyes and bright teeth, and picturesque eyebrows, it was Ma Yi.
Ma Yiyan said: "The living Buddha is compassionate and heartfelt, if Guzang City is saved from the military disaster, it is really the immeasurable merit of the living Buddha." ” The Living Buddha smiled and clasped his palms together and said, "Good."

Yang Hao reopened the ancient road of the Western Regions, and all the departments were under the unified order, which was a major event to eliminate the military disaster, prosper the place, and benefit the common people.
Luorong Dengba called the king's ambition without any basis, and asked Miss Ma Yi to reply to Yang Hao, asking him not to start the war lightly, give Luorong Dengba a little time, he will make a wise choice. ” Ma Yi smiled like a flower, and his slender palm was like a jade girl: "The living Buddha is compassionate, and my eldest family thinks the same."
It's just that the 150,000 army is stationed here, and it consumes countless money and food every day, so my family's westward expedition will not be delayed in Liangzhou for a long time.
In this way, it is limited to three days, and within three days, if Luorong Demba surrenders the city, my family will ensure that he is rich and noble, and he will have a place in the festival mansion.
After three days, the army attacked the city. ” "When" The bell rang slowly, and the living Buddha and Ma Yi bowed to each other The ancient city of Fenzhou, in June, the sun is like fire.
In the endless chirping of cicadas, the shopkeeper of the west door of Xiaolou Pharmacy lazily lay on the desk, and the dust in his hand fluttered lightly on the desk.
A vigorous man wearing a cyan short-shirted trouser and a hero's scarf on his head walked into the pharmacy quickly, and knocked on the desk with his fingers.
Ximen Xiaolou raised his head listlessly and glanced at him, and saw that this man was very young, his skin was fresh and tender, but his facial features were also delicate, but his eyebrows were too heavy, with a little sinister, and there was a little black mole on his lips, which was not very desirable to look at.
He yawned lazily and said, "What does the guest want to buy?"
The man in green clothes said bluntly: "Arsenic." ” The shopkeeper of Simon yawned again, stretched out his hand and said, "Buy a few dollars, I brought it with the book, this kind of medicine is not something that can be bought casually." ” The man in Tsing Yi looked back, and suddenly leaned over and said something to him in a low voice, Huo Di, the shopkeeper of Ximen, who was sleepy, opened his eyes wide, the man in Tsing Yi touched his chin, and his fingers quickly made a few movements on his chest, and the shopkeeper of Ximen hurriedly stood up and stammered: "You are you" The man in Tsing Yi lay on the desk, picked up a few medicinal materials at random, and said in a low voice: "Don't talk nonsense, is there any letter from me?"
The shopkeeper of the West Gate hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, please come to the back room." ” The man in Tsing Yi suppressed his voice and said, "No need, it's done here, take it out." ” The shopkeeper of Ximen hurriedly took out a hot letter from his arms, and the man in Tsing Yi snatched it, hurriedly browsed the letter, sneered, gritted his teeth and said: "King Zhelan is really a generous big brother, if he Yang Hao is a person who has no ability, I can be wronged for him, and I will not embarrass him."
Since he is capable, I don't want to be angry with his Yang family.
Whoever leaves him will not be the fate of this life, and it will be broken."
The shopkeeper of Ximen only knew her identity, and he didn't know what happened to the two families of Zheyang, and he was stunned when he heard her talk to herself, but he still didn't know why.
Excerpt Ziyu forgot to say what was in his heart, and suddenly realized that there was still a person standing in the counter, his face couldn't help but be hot, he glared at him in embarrassment, and said coquettishly: "Look at what to see, look again, gouge out your eyeballs." ” The shopkeeper of Ximen was startled, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "The old man didn't look at it, he didn't see anything." ” Zhi Ziyu snorted coldly and said, "Since he has even arranged the back road for the general, it seems that I don't have to worry about it."
When you go back, you say, "I'm at ease now, so that he doesn't have to think of me." ” After saying that, he turned around and left, and the shopkeeper of Ximen couldn't help but shout in a hurry: "Fifth son, where are you going?"
Zhen Ziyu didn't answer, the Ximen shopkeeper hurriedly flashed out from behind the counter, and when he chased him to the door and looked up, he saw that the street was bustling, people came and went, and the figure of Zhen Ziyu had long been gone.
The Zhe family received the news that Zhe Ziyu appeared in Fenzhou, and found that she was from Xiazhou to Suizhou, from Suizhou to the west, first south and then east, and the entire route was to the Central Plains.
It seems that the excerpt has sunk into the sea.
At this time, Zheziyu had left Fenzhou and turned westward, to the foot of Liupan Mountain in Longxi.
Liupan Mountain is majestic, towering and upright, known as the mountain high Taihua 3,000 zhang, the reputation of 200 heavy in Qinguan, the climate here is cool, there is no midsummer in spring and autumn, it is here in midsummer, it is really refreshing, the heart is relaxed.
Excerpt Ziyu has traveled south and north, and has been to many places, but every time he has a mission, he is in a hurry, only this time he is hurt by love, and he travels the world alone, but he can calm down and appreciate the magnificence of the mountains and rivers, and his mind is also open-minded.
The sun rises in the east, the morning fog is filled, the mountains are stacked, the green oak and green cedar, a mountain spring, and the roaring stream, like a fairyland on earth.
Zhezi Yu got up from the shack under the stone, washed her delicate face in the clear spring in the mountains, rinsed her mouth and brushed her teeth, cleaned up, pulled her hair with a wooden hairpin, went to the forest for a turn, and then came back with a red-bellied golden chicken, cleaned up by the spring, returned to the shack under the big stone and made a fire, and then set up the golden chicken to bake, when the golden chicken gave out a rich meat fragrance, she got up and rushed to the side of the horse tied under the big tree, and took out a bag from the horse's back package, which contained salt and various condiments, and she returned to the fire.
While turning the roasted golden chicken, carefully sprinkle the condiments.
The aroma of the chicken became even more delicious, and Zhen Ziyu sniffed it, with a satisfied smile on his face, and took out a flat-mouthed wine jug from his waist, sat down cross-legged, and prepared to feast.
She tore off a chicken leg, just took a bite, and unscrewed the wine jug, before she came to her lips, she heard a sound of shouting and fighting, and she frowned, then got up and lay down on the stone, and looked at the sonorous sword:
