Chapter 282: Unexpected joy!

The So tribe and the Shali tribe went south like hungry wolf-like attacks, one in the southeast and the other in the southwest, and the one in the southwest was as fierce as fire. Although the Tuduo tribe and the Choping tribe had mobilized the entire tribe to resist, the combat power of the three tribes in the south was already inferior to the two tribes in the north. According to the two tribes, these three tribes had long been blown away by the Tang Feng from the south; in addition, they lost more than one in the fighting spirit and momentum, and the more deadly, they did not make up for the military weapons. The combined three tribes made the battlefield situation a typical one-sided.

The two wars that occurred in both east and west directions of the Raole Grassland were all involved in the four tribes. The Domo tribe, the only one who temporarily avoided the war, was also greatly damaged due to the fact that the war outside the Grand Governor's Office a few days ago. At this time, not only was he unable to participate, but he was even nervous. Even the fool could see the current situation. After the war in the surrounding area was over, it was the Domo tribe's turn. This ending seemed to be destined. The only difference was whether the first one to rush over with a knife was the Sulso or the Shari tribe.

Rao Le, who had been safe for decades since Emperor Taizong submitted his reverence, was already full of war, blood flowing all over the ground, shouting and howling day and night, accompanied by the strong bloody smell, the desire for naked killing and the whine of despair. In addition, there was also uneasy panic.

In short, the ancient Raole Grassland no longer has the high and clear sky, green grass, and the calmness of the aries like clouds, and all the floating blood and killings.

Although the grassland where he was located was already a murderous field, Tang Cheng, who played an extremely important role in the killing, looked at the four people walking in front of him with joy on his face.

The visit of Jia Zixing, the commander of Tiancheng Army, was nothing. After all, he led four thousand quick knives to guard Tang Cheng. Speaking of which, it was just a floating bridge between the two. The real happiness was Zhang Xiangwen and Qizhi who were walking half a step behind Jia Zixing. As for Xiao An Lushan who followed Qizhi, they were really dispensable like cats and dogs.

This is the first time he has seen Zhang Xiangwen and Qizhi since he handed over the post of the Longmen County Magistrate to enter the grassland.

"Master Jia Duwei, what wind has blown you to my small temple? But when you come, the soldiers on the other side can be loose and loose." With familiarity, Tang Cheng bowed his hand slightly and smiled and greeted him with a smile when facing Jia Zixing who was coming first.

Because of the lively fighting on the Raole grassland during this period, although Jia Zixing had long stated that unless he was ordered by the Youzhou Grand Governor's Office, Tiancheng's army would never participate in the war, but he was preparing for the future. His old army has not been idle for a while. He has been practicing 4,000 soldiers under his command every day. The daily training volume has made the 4,000 border troops miserable. Tang Cheng's words of teasing come from this.

Hearing this, Jia Zixing looked at Tang Cheng deeply and laughed and said, "Tang Sima has a deep foundation and goes straight to Chang'an. The noble man has his life. He can't even think about it."

Jia Zixing's words are meaningful, Chang'an! When Tang Cheng heard these two words, he immediately thought of Li Longji and Zhang Liang. What have they done?

Although his thoughts were surging, the open air was not a place to speak. Tang Cheng looked back at Jia Zixing and did not ask in detail, and smiled in front of Zhang Xiangwen.

After looking Zhang Xiangwen up and down, Tang Cheng slapped him on the shoulder and then smiled and said, "No, it looks much more calm than before. But you, the emperor of the county, don't run around in Longmen and do something to do. The local officials are a serious crime. If the Ministry of Personnel is far away, I won't say it. If you know about Guizhou Prefecture, please deal with you."

It's strange that when Zhang Xiangwen came with Jia Zixing, who was still calm when he arrived in front of Tang Cheng, he lost his true colors again. After taking a heavy slap, he grinned and smiled: "It's still the Fu Meng left by my brother that day. The Guizhou Prefecture Office would not care about the merits of Longmen County at all. If it weren't for the fact that some people in the county were upset due to Rao Le's war during this period, I would have slipped over long ago."

The fire at the city gate affected the fish in the pond. Tang Cheng also knew that the people of Longmen County were restless about this. At that time, Ashidezhi, who was surnamed Hu, came here specifically for this. When he heard Zhang Xiangwen say this, he asked with some concern, "What are the people's hearts now?"

"It's safe," Zhang Xiangwen let out a long sigh and laughed: "First, Rao Le has been fighting for so long, and he hasn't seen a Xi person crossing the Border River. Longmen County is more peaceful than usual when the grasslands encounter famines. There are not even a small group of robberies. Second, it is because merchants are placing their elder brother in charge of the Border River and swearing to protect Longmen's safety. Brother, your reputation in Longmen County is at its peak. Once you hear this, you don't see the Xi person crossing the river. People's hearts gradually settle down naturally. These days, I have heard from several yamen runners who have gone down to do the job. Now many families in the county are offering their elder brother's tablets to protect your safety, pointing to you to ensure peace."

Sitting in the Jiehe River, swearing to protect the safety of Longmen. This is the original words that Ashidezhi said to comfort the worrying Ashidezhi that day. Unexpectedly, this man turned his back and spread it everywhere by dealing with merchants. After hearing this, Tang Cheng understood the meaning of Ashidezhi. The nine surnames Hu were clearly blocking his feet with his words. The words that the Hu man said in front of him were all false. He was still afraid that he would run away, so he deliberately nailed himself to the edge of the Jiehe River with the leisurely mouths of the people of Longmen County.

The big talk that day has been spread all the well-known. Who can break the promise and leave if you want some face?

No wonder the straightforward and generous Hu people in the North cannot see the nine surnames Hu, so they regard them as a hybrid. There are so many twists and turns in their belly.

After thinking it through, Tang Cheng didn't say so deeply, "Good boy, I haven't seen you for a while, but you should be talking to the governor Zhao of Guizhou. He is the one who takes care of you and the one who takes the exam is useless." Tang Cheng slapped Zhang Xiangwen again and turned it to Qizhi.

The wind was strong and cold on the grassland, making Qizhi's face flush. She was already gorgeous and charming. This added more beauty, attracting the soldiers on duty around the tent to secretly look around.

Since leaving Longmen County that day, Tang Cheng has never been close to women. He has been so cruel. When he saw Qizhi so beautiful again, he suddenly felt a fire on his body. His heart was bulging and grinding like grass. He was full of desire. Unfortunately, it was difficult for everyone to express it, so he could only press down and pretend to be calm and said, "Why are you here because it is cold and cold?" As he said, he had tightened the fox fur cloak surrounding Qizhi's shoulders. When his thumb accidentally passed through Qizhi's delicate and tender skin on Qizhi's neck, the fire on his body suddenly became even more intense.

Qiori Ben was born in the Kuaihuo Building, the number one in fireworks in Yangzhou. Although she was a wise man, she was very sensitive to men and women's affairs. Even Tang Cheng suppressed his thoughts but did not hide it from her. For a moment, the redness on his face became a little deeper, but she didn't know whether it was blown by the wind or fumigated by the emotions. However, her eyes became inexplicably confused. Her natural charm spread to the extreme at one moment, which made the soldiers who were peeking at Zuo Jinben even forget to return their heads.

This little fairy is really fascinating and not losing his life! Facing Qizhi like this, even Tang Cheng dares not look at him anymore, so as not to show any jokes from Jia Zixing and Zhang Xiangwen if they don’t get involved in a long time. It would be embarrassing. "An Lushan, why are you here too? I haven’t seen you these days, how have you learned Jianwu?"

"The master is coming to Rao Le, and the villain understands the words of the Xi man, so he follows him." An Lushan respectfully bowed to Tang Cheng and said with great enthusiasm: "Learn dance with the master for several months. Although the villain is stupid, he dare not let down the master's painstaking efforts in teaching. If the adults have time, the villain is willing to cheer for the dance." Although he is humble, the confidence in his words cannot be hidden.

After all, An Lushan is still An Lushan! "Look, even if you don't have any time, you, Hu Xuanwu, always have to watch it." Tang Cheng smiled so happily at this moment. In the original history, An Lushan, who was the governor of the Three Towns, would take the initiative to dance the Hu Xuanwu, who would be good at when he went to Chang'an to invite favors to Xuanzong and Yang Guifei, who else in the world could have him singing and dancing to entertain him?

After laughing, Tang Cheng turned around and reached out to Jia Zixing and said, "The wind on the grassland is strong, let's talk to you, Lord Duwei!"

After entering the tent, he sat down and exchanged greetings for a few more words. Seeing that Jia Zixing had several times of winking at him, Tang Cheng ordered Zheng San to lead Zhang Xiangwen and Qizhi to An Lushan to wash the tent. For a moment, the charcoal fire was burning, and only two people were left in the warm tent.

After witnessing the tent door putting down again, Tang Cheng put down the teacup in his hand and chuckled: "Wei Duwei Jia has always been generous, why are we snakes, snakes, scorpions and scorpions today?"

Since Tang Cheng took office as the magistrate of Longmen County, the two of them have been familiar with each other for their cooperation to make money. Upon hearing this, Jia Zixing glanced at him angrily, "You are all recruited by you! But if you can treat this person in Beijing like this, I really admire you this time." As he said that he had already taken out a letter from his close friend and handed it over.

Li Longji's handwritten letter! As soon as Fang took the letter, Tang Cheng recognized that the words on the cover of the letter were from Li Longji's handwriting. When he took out the letter, he looked at the end. The signature was indeed the four words "Master of the East Palace".

After looking back at the letter written to Jia Zixing, Li Longji said a lot, but the meaning was simple, which was to let Jia Zixing save Tang Cheng's life no matter what the situation was mixed. As long as he could complete this task, even if he violated the military order of the Youzhou Governor's Office, the East Palace would take action... Although the words in this letter were a bit vague, they were clear in terms of inducement or threats. Anyone who reads this letter could truly feel the "Master of the East Palace" caring about his safety.

"Brother, you can hide so much." After Tang Cheng finished reading the letter, Jia Zixing, who was sipping tea in a small mouthful, said in a warm tone: "If it weren't for you, my little border commander, could have the prince's eyes? Not to mention this handwritten handwritten. You know the situation in the court today than you. It is really risky to write such a signature letter to me, a fighter I have never met at this time. But this also shows that your position in the prince's heart is rare, and really rare!"

Tang Cheng naturally understood what Jia Zixing meant. At this time, Li Longji and Princess Taiping were fighting fiercely in the court, and the East Palace had no contact with Jia Zixing. This letter was a rash move no matter how you look at it. If Jia Zixing had other ideas, this letter fell into Princess Taiping's hands, it would be a handle for people to attack. Objectively analyzing Li Longji's identity and situation, this is a foolish move.

But if it weren't for this, you wouldn't be able to see the true intention in the letter.

Such letters will naturally not be delivered by post or urgently. They must be sent by trusted servants to personally deliver them. Calculate the time when Zhang Liang returned to Beijing, and then calculate the time when the letter was delivered from Chang'an to this end. Obviously, this letter was sent by Li Longji shortly after Zhang Liang returned to Beijing.

No matter what purpose Li Longji wrote, the words "Master of the East Palace" that were unconcealed in the letter and the signature were somewhat alleviated by some of Tang Cheng's resentment and disappointment about him burning the bridge across the river.

"Your Highness is thinking about it," Tang Cheng smiled slightly when he returned the letter, "Since Mr. Jia can show me this letter, I guess he has a clear idea in his heart."

Seeing that Tang Cheng could still be so calm after reading the letter, Jia Zixing couldn't help but sigh ashamed. This was the handwritten handwritten by the prince of the dynasty. When he received it yesterday, he was so excited that he could not sleep all night. Tang Cheng in front of him was a real person involved. If someone else saw the prince so desirable, he would have some excitement even if he was not grateful and shed tears. How many of them could do as if nothing had happened like him?

Being calm about favor and disgrace is a gentleman. I just heard of it before, but now I have seen it in person.

Jia Zixing withdrew his gaze from Tang Cheng's face, took the letter and carefully put it in the meat sticker, picked up the teacup and laughed roughly: "Prince Jun, how many courage do I do to refuse to obey this fighter? Besides... Brother, you are my God of Wealth, and you don't have this letter from Your Highness, and I can't sit still and see you in danger and not save you."

Jia Zixing's words were not accurate. After all, it took a lot of effort to send troops to Jiehe. If Tang Cheng hadn't directly threatened the dividends from the Longmen Market, the veteran would have refused to move. Now he would have said it would be a brittle thing.

With Tang Cheng's current official experience, he naturally would not turn over this old account. After hearing this, he bowed his hand in real or fake manner, "Thank you for your care, brother." After thanking him, he immediately asked again, "How is it, Lord Duwei still insists on the idea that the border troops will never enter the Raole Grassland?"

Jia Zixing was not in a hurry to answer the question, so he pondered in the seat. Perhaps even he himself didn't notice that his idle left hand had accidentally stroked his right chest several times, and the one placed close to his body was Li Longji's handbook.

Seeing Jia Zixing's unintentional action, although he had not given a clear answer, Tang Cheng had already picked up the teacup and took a sip with a smile.

This is done!

As Jia Zixing's identity, if you don't have any special opportunities, you will never have any relationship with the prince of the East Palace in your life. It goes without saying how effective this relationship will be for an official who eats the court. The problem now is that if Jia Zixing wants to strengthen this relationship and transform it into a real official promotion in the future, he must not ignore his Tang Cheng's ideas.

After all, he is the hub that connects it with the East Palace, and Li Longji really has the importance he values ​​himself.

Jia Zixing is over forty years old, and there is not much time left for him in the future. Wealth and honor are in danger. This is a huge gambling for Jia Zixing, with extremely huge risks and benefits. His unconscious actions actually revealed the result of his betting.

After Tang Cheng had eaten all the remaining tea in the cup, Jia Zixing had made a decision. He raised his index finger and looked solemn, "One chance, if Tang Sima wants to use Tiancheng Army to enter the Raole Grassland to participate in the war, there will be only one chance, and the longest time for mobilization will not exceed ten days. Is it still not necessary to use this opportunity? How to use it, and where to use it, you have to think clearly!"

"Okay!" Tang Chengzhan praised: "The killing is determined, and the commander Jia Duwei is very brave."

Upon hearing this, Jia Zixing was not happy about being praised. "Brother, don't instigate people to hang themselves. Once Tiancheng Army crosses the border river and enters the Raole Grassland, even if the crime of using orders and using weapons is confirmed. I don't tell you what the crime of ignoring military laws is. I hope you can tell me more good things when I send a letter to this person in Beijing, so that I will not end up in a desperate situation." As he spoke, Jia Zixing reached out and patted the letter hidden on his chest again.

"Although we have not known each other for a long time, you should know the brother Zhang Cheng who works in Tang Cheng." It is rare that Jia Zixing finally vomited because of Li Longji's letter. Tang Cheng could not tolerate him back. He held the tea cup and personally encouraged him to continue tea, saying in harmony: "Master Master, please relax. I may not be able to use this eight thousand days of army, just in case; in addition, I still have some confidence to say something in front of the prince. The current prince is a person praised by the Queen of God, who is "My family's Thousand Miles Horse". He has never been easy to give people, but once he really deserves nothing. Third, although the Grand Governor Zhang of Youzhou is far away from the court battle, the Eastern Palace may not be unavailable in the Grand Governor's Office."

Jia Zixing suddenly raised his head.

Seeing this, Tang Cheng reached out and pointed his hand outside the tent and smiled slightly, "Do you have forgotten about the one hundred cavalry and the yellow birch crossbow?"

Jia Zixing's eyes brighter. The yellow birch crossbow is a heavy weapon in the army. He always looked at it very tightly. Usually, every crossbow entry and exit must be strictly recorded and recorded, let alone the place to lend it. However, when Tang Cheng was about to go to the Raole Grassland, the Grand Governor's Office made an abnormal document, not only lending him a hundred crossbows, but also had as many as two teams of elite cavalry with a hundred people. At that time, Jia Zixing was surprised that Tang Cheng, a small county magistrate, had such great ability, could actually reach his hand to the Grand Governor's Office. Now it seems that the foundation is here.

After thinking about this, although Jia Zixing was not completely relieved, the uneasiness on his face disappeared a lot, and Tang Cheng's encouragement also achieved the expected results.

Jia Zixing did not stop after the matter was finished. Tang Cheng sent him out and looked at the joint camp tent across the river again, and a sincere smile appeared on his face.

It was a surprise that a letter from Li Longji gave him more than 8,000 troops. With these 8,000 swords, Tang Cheng consciously added some confidence to Rao Le's intervention. Although the eight thousand people were not many, what Tang Cheng valued more was not their combat power, but the identity of the "Tang Dynasty regular border army" in Tiancheng's army and the attitude of the Tang court represented by this identity.

Although this attitude is false to him, what about people on the grassland? When eight thousand bright swords appear in front of him, who dares to hold on to the idea that the Tang Dynasty will not interfere in the affairs? These eight thousand people will be infinitely magnified. You must know that the most elite border troops in the Tang Dynasty have as many as two hundred thousand.

With a small force, he fought against the general trend with small force, and then took advantage of the situation and became a matter of the times. After years of experience in the officialdom, Tang Cheng liked and was good at this technique. As early as when he first thought about the idea of ​​fighting the eight thousand days of army, Tang Cheng did not simply use them as a group of military fighters. Whether it was blackmail or deterrent, his use of the eight thousand days of army always focused on politics.

Any resources you have in your hands can be manipulated with political perspectives and techniques in order to obtain the greatest profit. After years of experience in a civil servant career in the Tang Dynasty, Tang Cheng's understanding and adaptation to the path of officialdom have gradually matured without realizing it.

After witnessing Jia Zixing and his guards crossing the Floating Bridge in Jiehe, Tang Cheng then turned back to his tent and ordered people to call Zhang Xiangwen over.
Chapter completed!
