Yang Fan said: "Of course it's not only, there are also scouts from the Heyuan Army to help me."
I thought about it, the reason why we ended up like this as soon as we got out of Luoyang is that we are not familiar with Longyou, even if we change into the usual clothes of Longyou people, we can't quickly integrate into it, and the locals can see the difference at a glance, so you will be ambushed.
And I'm just a person, blending into the horse gang that is really used to walking Longyou, but it is not easy for people to see the flaws.
Besides, your current situation is really not suitable for action, so it is better for me to be alone, plus the scouts provided by the Heyuan Army, maybe it will work wonders. ” "This" Huang Xuchang hesitated.
Yang Fan smiled slightly, looked at the miserable hundred horsemen guards in the room, and said: "Everyone came west together, some brothers have been sleeping in Longyou since then, and the brothers present are not unwilling to carry out the task, but they have the intention to kill the thief and are unable to act, and our time is relatively short."
If Yang Fan can live up to everyone's trust and successfully complete the mission, this credit will naturally belong to everyone, and Yang Fan will never be greedy for merit."
Huang Xuchang listened, his black face turned red, and he said angrily: "What nonsense, Lao Tzu will compete with you, I'm just worried that so many of us have been poisoned by others, and you are alone."
Yang Fan said: "What is there to worry about, someone has to do this, since you are a soldier, you can still be afraid of death and not so many of our brothers, dead and wounded, Yang is now the only person with sound hands and feet, alive and jumping, I don't go to anyone, I can still be a turtle with a shrunken head."
Huang Xu looked at him for a long time, sat up with difficulty, held Yang Fan's hand, and said with emotion: "Yang Er, when you entered the hundred horses, my Lao Huang will pick his nose and pick his eyes, no matter how you look at you, Lao Huang will look away."
This matter is about the honor of our hundred horses, and now, please leave it to you."
Yang Fan looked at this soldier who valued honor more than his life, didn't say anything, just nodded heavily, then turned his head to the shopkeeper and said, "Have the local scouts who cooperated with us have been here?"
The shopkeeper said: "Not yet, only one battalion officer in charge of this matter has come, sent some necessary medicines, and invited a man from the army to come and treat everyone."
Because your visit is strictly confidential, and you are currently unable to move due to your injuries, there are no scouts to cooperate with your actions for the time being. ” Yang Fan thought for a while and said, "In this way, you inform them to send someone over tomorrow afternoon, and we will meet first and discuss the preparations for action."
Most of our men are wounded, so it is not necessary for them to send in the number of scouts they were rationed, but the personnel must be fine, and I want the best scouts you have here."
The shopkeeper nodded and said, "Okay, I'll let you know right away." ” Yang Fan said again: "Huang Teamzheng, brothers, you are here to recuperate, and I will come to see you tomorrow." ” Huang Xuchang said: "Don't you live here?"
Yang Fan said: "I'm easy to do alone, and I don't attract much attention wherever I go."
The reason why we just arrived in Longyou, was recognized by people, not like a local, is a big reason, I walked around, learn more about the customs here. ” Huang Xuchang bowed his head and said, "Okay, then you should be more careful." ” When Yang Fan left the leather shop, it was already late, and it was already past the hottest period, and when it was close to dusk, the sun had lost its power, and the oncoming wind brought a trace of coolness, and the people who were drowsy by the scorching heat of noon were refreshed by the wind.
Yang Fan didn't wander around, in order to find the enemy, the experience of lurking in Luoyang for more than a year told him that there is no quick way to get into a place with very different customs and customs, so that you can quickly integrate into the locals, instead of wasting effort on this, it is better to ask Shen Mu for help.
Although Shen Mu is based in Chang'an, he clearly has a huge potential force in Longyou, since they have cooperated with each other, how can they put such a powerful figure and not use it.
Yang Fan carried a wolfskin mattress and inquired all the way to find the Huangshui Post House.
To be more precise, this should be Huangshui Station.
The post is a place set up by the imperial court to receive officials, post envoys and other public officials.
It is called a hall one level lower than it, and it is a place set up by the local government to receive related officials and public officials.
The second is the private stack.
The Huangshui Station is actually a collection of posts, pavilions, and stacks as a whole, so it covers a wide area.
Yang Fan rushed directly to the northwest corner of Huangshui Station, which was the location of the inn.
The grade of the inn in Huangshuiyi is no worse than the pavilion here, and this is the most high-end inn in the city.
Yang Fan walked all the way from Xicheng to confirm that no one was following, and then he got into the inn with a bundle of broken wolf skins, and the shopkeeper in the inn saw him dressed like this, and almost didn't blow him out.
After a while, Zhang Yi ran out with a big grin, and there were a few red lip prints on his cheeks.
It seems that this little flying general who has not known the taste of meat for a few months is really greedy, and he can't wait to have a double shot in the Yan family garden, and after staying in the inn, he enjoys the blessings of all people.
Although this little flying general is as cunning as a fox and as fierce as a wolf as a horse thief, his heart is very simple: if you are good to me, I will be good to you, you treat me as a brother, and it doesn't matter if I work hard for you.
As soon as Yang Fan changed his hand, he gave him two enchanting and moving Persian beauties, and Xiao Fei really regarded Yang Fan as a brother.
"Haha Erlang, why are you here, I was thinking about looking for you to eat and drink the next day, you came just in time, don't leave tonight, let's have a good drink" Zhang Yi stepped forward and hugged Yang Fan, pulled him and walked inside, and when Xiao Er saw that this ordinary person in this line of hiding was really a friend of this high-roller, he couldn't help but secretly rejoice.
"Hehe, is that so?"
Shen Mu couldn't help but laugh when he heard Yang Fan's intention: "I didn't expect the sergeant sent from Luoyang to get any special news, I originally wanted to help you in this regard, so it's okay, get rid of those people, only you, it's more convenient for us to act." ” Yang Fan said happily: "In this way, I really want to thank Brother Shen." ” Shen Mu waved his hand and said: "You're welcome, speaking of which, there is nothing false in the various information in the Longyou newspaper, the empress is just made suspicious by the ministers who have their own scheming intentions, so no one can believe it."
The information I got might be a little more detailed than the scouts in the army, but that's about it, it won't make much difference. ” Shen Mu said again: "Where do you live tonight, if you can get out, you might as well stay here, it's just a trivial matter to find out the information, my people have been investigating the information of all parties in Longyou, and by the way."
You don't have to pay too much attention to this matter, but the matter I said, we still need to think about it. ” Yang Fan said with a smile: "I came today, I was going to be a villain, if you don't keep me, I won't leave." ” At night, Shen Mu's room.
The three of them sat opposite each other, and only Zhang Yi was drinking.
Wine is good wine, and food is good food, but Shen Mu and Yang Fan's thoughts are not here.
Shen Mu said: "The structure of the Tubo army is like this, the whole country is divided into four, each is divided into two points, each is divided into four Dongdai, each such is another directly subordinate Dongdai, in addition to the four forbidden army Dongdai town four.
Each division has a marshal, a deputy general, and a judge, totaling more than 400,000 soldiers and horses.
Their armor casting skills are very clever, they can cast very sophisticated weapons, their combat effectiveness we have already said, the next thing to talk about is their flaws, and they are unavoidable flaws. ” Yang Fan perked up and leaned forward slightly.
Shen Mu said: "The Tubo people are good at fighting, dare to fight, and are not afraid of death, which is not false, but they have one of the biggest problems.
For example, now the general of Longyou is Lou Shide, if Lou Shide is transferred to Liaodong tomorrow and Qiu Shenji is appointed as the chief general of Longyou, he can also command tens of thousands of troops in Longyou.
As for Lou Shide, he single-handedly took office, and when he arrived in Liaodong, he was able to command tens of thousands of troops in Liaodong, and this situation was absolutely impossible with the Tubo people."

Shen Mu took a sip of wine and said, "There is one biggest problem in the Tubo army, and this problem exists even among the elite troops of the Tubo headquarters, that is, the power of the generals does not come from above, but from below. ” Yang Fan asked, "What do you mean by this?"
On the side, Zhang Yi drank a big bowl of wine, looked at them with straight eyes, grabbed the wine jar and poured it again.
Shen Mu said: "The Tubo army and the people are one, the army in wartime, and the people in peacetime, their generals are the lords and tribal leaders in peacetime, because he has someone in his hands and has a territory in his hands, and he is conscripted to fight in wartime, so he is a general.
Even if Zampu wants to use him, he can't send him to any other lord's tribe to command other people's tribes, in this case, it means that as long as his people are gone, he will be penniless, and it is impossible to change his command and continue to live the life of other masters, so they must keep their capital, once this battle is too hard, even if the soldiers dare to fight again, their leaders will not dare to fight again, they will do everything possible to retain their strength. ” Yang Fan nodded suddenly, and Shen Mu said again: "Besides, those tribes that are vassals in Tubo, such as Yangtong, Subi, and Tuyuhun, they are all regarded as alien races by the Tubo nobles, and they are despised by the Tubo nobles.
This is not counted, as vassals, they must also regularly contribute to the Tibetan headquarters, send troops free of charge, and the distribution of the spoils of war is first done in the Tibetan headquarters, how can they not be resentful, but forced by the situation, they have to follow, so there are those who violate the yang and yin, there are those who secretly drag their feet, and there are those who defect to our court, these are the places we can use.
Emperor Wen of Sui Emperor Yang Jian and Emperor Taizong of our dynasty were able to defeat them, but they cleverly took advantage of their internal contradictions, otherwise, with the wisdom of these two monarchs and the number of elite generals under them, they might not be able to win easily against such a brave and warlike army."
Yang Fan sighed: "Yes, no matter how brave and good at fighting an army is, if there is such a drawback, as long as it is used by others, there is no reason to be undefeated."
Fortunately, they have not learned our Central Plains military system, otherwise this Tubo would be even more of a headache. ” Shen Mu laughed and said: "Impossible, the reason why I said that this is their unavoidable defect is because here, our military system, they can't learn it." ” Zhang Yi saw Shen Mu laughing, and also smirked, and after laughing, he picked up the wine bowl, and said to the two with a big tongue: "Dry dry" After speaking, without waiting for the two to answer, he raised his neck and poured it down.
Yang Fan stared at Shen Mu and said, "I can't learn or I don't want to learn" Shen Mu said: "I can't learn my Central Plains military system, it comes from my Central Plains farming system."
The steppe military system stems from their nomadic system.
Unless they also switch to farming, they won't learn.
Although their current military system has major flaws, it still allows them to become a powerful country in the western region.
If they forcibly learn from our military system, I am afraid that they will not even be able to maintain the current situation, and they will soon become a mess.
A system that lags behind the present and is still being implemented is a disaster; But it is a system, no matter how good it is, if it goes beyond the present and implements it in the present, it will also become a disaster."
Yang Fan carefully smacked Shen Mu's words, for a long time, and said with a slight emotion: "Listening to your words is better than reading ten years later."
Brother Shen's knowledge, if he enters the court as an official and becomes a prime minister, it will be more than enough."
Shen Mu laughed, waved his hand and said: "Erlang has praised him, he can only talk on paper as a brother, but he can't be the prime minister of the DPRK and China."
Shen Mu smiled, and said to Yang Fan: "The Eastern Turks also have the same problems as the Tibetans, but because it has not many vassals, this aspect is not as serious as the Tibetans, and I plan to support the Western Turks to fight against it and tie the hands and feet of the Eastern Turks."
The focus of the disintegration was on the Tibetan side. ” "Although Tibet did not have two khans, it had a prime minister whose authority was not inferior to that of the khan.
This prime minister is the god of war Qinling, who has defeated several famous generals of my Tang Dynasty in a row.
Qinling was the son of Lu Dongzan, the former prime minister of Tibet, and when Zanpu was young, he was regent by Lu Dongzan.
After Lu Dongzan's death, his son Qinling became the prime minister and continued to hold power.
Now, this Zampu has grown up."
When Yang Fan heard this, he finally understood Shen Mu's overall plan, and couldn't help but be secretly shocked by the thoughtfulness and long-term nature of his plan.
Defeating an enemy once on the battlefield will cause only temporary losses to the enemy, and it will be difficult to hurt their vitality unless it is a huge casualty.
However, once a conflict between the two major power groups of the enemy is provoked, the damage is destined to be enormous, and it can even last for decades until the national strength of the other side is exhausted.
Yang Fan said excitedly: "So, what can I do?"
Shen Mu said: "Of course, it is up to you to discover this problem, and it is up to you to find the person or thing that the enemy can use for money, and report it to the empress, so that she can believe that she can divide and disintegrate the enemy's forces based on this."
If you are willing to share the credit with Master Xue or a certain general who has a friendship, and he will come forward to help you share it, I believe this will be more certain."
Yang Fan was stunned and said with some disappointment: "What I do is as simple as that" Shen Mu smiled: "It's as simple as that" Yang Fan sighed: "This is really a simple task" To be continued:
