Fanyang City.

Fanyang is a border town. It faces the remnant Turkic forces in the north and Khitan and other tribes. The Tang Dynasty was founded for more than a hundred years. The threat from the north has been basically eradicated as early as Gaozong's reign. Most of the remaining forces are some remnant forces, these nomadic peoples.

Lack of food and clothing makes it even more difficult to survive, especially in winter.

So even though they knew that the Tang Dynasty was not easy to mess with, the tribesmen would still venture south every winter and plunder the farms in the border towns of the Tang Dynasty. If they were lucky, they could rob some food and bring it back to the northern grasslands, so they could spend the winter calmly. But if they were not lucky,

If so, when encountering Tang soldiers patrolling the border, the entire tribe would basically be wiped out.

Therefore, the border town of Fanyang is responsible for the very important task of guarding the border. Since the Wu Zetian period, the imperial court has continuously invested countless soldiers, horses, money and food in this border town, gradually forming one of the top ten border towns in the Tang Dynasty today.

Unfortunately, the current owner of this border town is Anlushan.

Feng Yu has been doing very well in Fan Yang recently.

Even Li Jianqi was surprised. He couldn't figure out where Marquis Gu found the talent. He was able to thrive in Fanyang City. Feng Yu knew all the generals and dignitaries in the city, and even had good personal relationships with them.

In just two months after arriving in Fanyang, Feng Yu has become the guest of many generals. Not only can he freely enter and exit their residences, he can even be invited to visit the Fanyang border army camp and sit in the camp's commander's tent with the generals.

They talked and laughed happily.

His external identity is just that of a playboy from a wealthy landowner in Yizhou. Do the generals under An Lushan like to associate with playboys so much?

Li Jianqi couldn't understand.

To her, Fan Yang was behind enemy lines and was surrounded by enemies on all sides. Li Twelve Niang had long told her that An Lushan was their life-and-death enemy, a life-and-death enemy. Li Jianqi followed Li Twelve Niang here.

Fan Yang tried many times to look for opportunities to assassinate An Lushan, but in the end he failed.

Therefore, Fan Yang was a very dangerous place for Li Jianqi. She disguised herself and lived in seclusion in a folk house, walking on thin ice every day. Not only did she learn the local dialect perfectly, but she also tried to look ordinary in her dress and appearance to blend in with the crowd.

The kind that no one here would notice.

Is this so? Li Jianqi lived in fear every day in Fan Yang, fearing that one day officers and soldiers would suddenly surround her yard and capture her alive.

In comparison, Feng Yu's life in Fan Yang was simply too nourishing. So nourishing that even Li Jianqi was secretly jealous.

What kind of enchanting soup did this guy pour into the generals under An Lushan's command? Why were every general so polite to him and so affectionate that they only had to burn yellow paper and put incense in the stove to marry Jinlan.

Li Jianqi has been following Feng Yu secretly? She doesn't know what Feng Yu wants to do? Li Twelve Niang has already given instructions to cooperate with Feng Yu in everything, and can reveal his whereabouts to protect him in times of crisis? Then the two of them escaped quickly

Out of Fanyang.

It's a pity that in the past two months, Feng Yu seems to be getting better and better as he gets better and better. He doesn't need her protection at all. She secretly follows him every day, but she is almost spotted by the generals' personal guards several times.

That night, Li Jianqi followed Feng Yu as usual and watched him and a group of generals enter a brothel. Li Jianqi squatted in the corner of the dark alley outside, watching the lanterns hanging high in the brothel not far away, and singing songs inside.

There was a lot of noise and debauchery among Manwu and Zhang Shuwei. Li Jianqi couldn't help curling his lips and secretly cursed "Young disciple".

In the past two months following Feng Yu? This guy took several generals to the brothel almost every day? He even directly booked a room in the brothel. Li Jianqi couldn't help but secretly curse, and he was not afraid of emptying himself.

Waiting outside the brothel? It wasn't until almost midnight that a group of generals went downstairs contentedly. They were all drunk and burping with wine, one at a time and another at another, staggering and refusing to fall.

Feng Yu was also drunk and staggering. He personally sent the generals downstairs and said goodbye to them one by one, agreeing to meet again tomorrow.

Seeing the generals mounting their horses and riding away with the support of their personal guards, Feng Yu straightened up and burped. When the cold night wind blew, he suddenly felt drunk, and Feng Yu quickly ran to the road.

Then he vomited with a loud sound.

After a long while, Feng Yu finally vomited completely and breathed a long sigh of relief. He glanced at a dark alley opposite the brothel and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

Quickly scanning the left and right sides, Feng Yu found that there were no unsightly people watching him. Feng Yu staggered toward the dark alley, holding his belt as he walked, as if he was going to urinate in the alley.

Walking into the dark alley, Feng Yu just let go of his belt when a cold voice came from the dark corner.

"If you dare to take advantage of me here, I will cut off your, your... hum!"

Feng Yu was amused: "Girl, you have experience, you know what men are capable of, haha..."

Before the laughter ended, a sound of wind blew past his ears, and dust flew up from the earthen wall behind Feng Yu. When the dust cleared, a large piece of the bricks in the earthen wall was missing. I don't know what kind of hidden weapon was used, but it was very powerful.

Feng Yu suddenly woke up from his drunkenness and hurriedly returned to his serious appearance.

"Girl, I was wrong. I made a mistake while drunk. Don't blame me." After saying this, Feng Yu bowed to Li Jianqi respectfully.

In the dark corner, Li Jianqi curled his lips, and then quickly returned to his indifferent look.

"You have been in frequent contact with An Lushan's generals these days, have you gotten any news?" Li Jianqi said in a low voice.

Feng Yu was not a serious person by nature, and his expression became frivolous again when he heard this: "How can it be so easy to get information? I have only known them for a long time, and they are not stupid. They told me about important military affairs as soon as we met. Aren't you afraid of losing your head?"

Li Jianqi said dissatisfiedly: "Then what are you busy with these days? Are you eating and drinking with those generals without any purpose?"

Feng Yu said seriously: "Eating and drinking are serious matters. Besides, my sacrifice is not small. Every day the girls in the brothel serve them and I treat them. The expenses are very high. The money given to me by Lord Gu has been spent by me."

I have lost more than half of my weight, not to mention that I have gained more than ten pounds by drinking and eating meat all day long. How sad..."

Li Jianqi said angrily: "You are surrounded by warblers every day, but you actually have the nerve to say 'sad'. Have you forgotten your last name?"

Feng Yu suddenly showed a look of sadness and indignation: "Do you think it's wonderful to be surrounded by those vulgar people? Do you think I am as happy as you imagined? You are wrong!"

Li Jianqi said in confusion: "You..."

Feng Yu suddenly changed his face, his expression was extremely mean: "...You can't even imagine the joy of visiting a brothel every day."

Li Jianqi: “…………”

In the dark alley, there was suddenly a sound of blows like a storm, mixed with Feng Yu's painful groan.

After the heavy rain, Feng Yu looked pained and apologized seriously: "Miss, I was wrong. I drank just now and it was inevitable that I would be rude in my words and deeds. Please forgive me, miss, and don't do anything again."

Li Jianqi said coldly: "Let's get down to business. If there is no news, I will go back."

Feng Yu said: "There is news that Anlushan secretly met with the leader of the Sumo tribe in the northeast last month. At the cost of 300,000 stones of grain and 10,000 horses, he borrowed 20,000 elite soldiers from the Sumo tribe. A few days ago, the 20,000 elite soldiers were already there.

They secretly went south, disguised themselves as Pinglu border troops, and secretly gathered and stationed themselves in Yingzhou."

Li Jianqi was shocked: "I secretly borrowed 20,000 foreign soldiers and horses, and they have entered our territory to station in the Tang Dynasty. An Lushan..."

Feng Yu glanced at her strangely and said, "Why are you panicking? An Lushan already had the intention of rebelliousness. Isn't it normal to borrow foreign soldiers and horses?"

Li Jianqi calmed down and sighed: "Twelve mothers have always said that An Lushan will rebel. I have heard it many times, but today I really found out that he started to take action. I am still a little surprised. The emperor treated An Lushan

He is so kind and yet he is not satisfied with himself. This thief is really..."

Feng Yu said coldly: "Those who are not of my race must have different feelings. The emperor trusted the wrong person and gave many years of grace to the wolf and thieves. The prosperous age is about to turn into chaos. It is a pity that the prosperous age has pitied the people..."

Li Jianqi said solemnly: "This news must be sent to Twelve Niangs and Lord Gu immediately. There should be no delay. Leave the news to me. I have a way. You... be careful in everything."

Feng Yu smiled and said: "This is just the beginning. In a few days, I will probably be able to find out the deployment of troops and horses in Anlu Mountain, the roster of generals above the level of brigade commander and above, as well as the location where they store grain, grass, weapons and horses. Brother Gu also

He said that An Lushan sent someone to secretly trick him once in the Anxi Protectorate and asked me to find an opportunity to take revenge. I am thinking about this matter to see if I can find a suitable time..."

Li Jianqi said worriedly: "The generals under An Lushan's command are not easy to compare with others. You don't have the power to restrain a chicken..."

Feng Yu laughed and said: "You can do earth-shattering things even if you don't have the strength to tie a chicken. If you don't believe it, you will see the results after a while."

Li Jianqi's eyes flashed with brilliance, his face suddenly turned red, and his voice became coy: "Anyway, you... must be careful. If there is danger, I will definitely save you. Even if we can't escape, we...

They will also die together."

Feng Yu sighed and said: "If you want to die, you can die. I don't want to die. I have a great life and have not yet conquered the world's warblers. How can I say the word 'death' lightly? Bah, bah, it's unlucky!"

Li Jianqi's pretty face froze: "You..."

Feng Yu hurriedly said: "Oh, I'm kidding you, of course I am willing to live and die with you. You and I are people who share weal and woe. If one day I really expose my identity, you and I will be short-lived mandarin ducks together.

We both go to hell hand in hand, maybe Yan Jun will see you and I are truly in love, and let us be husband and wife in the next life..."

Those words made Li Jianqi's heartstrings ring wildly, and he instantly lost his sense of reason and sense of propriety. He was so shy that he almost found a crack in the ground and crawled in.

Li Jianqi was adopted by Li Twelve Niang since he was a child. All Li Twelve Niang’s disciples were female disciples. Li Jianqi had never interacted with a strange man. How could he withstand Feng Yu’s powerful flirtatious words?

.

"You, you... don't talk nonsense!" Li Jianqi's body was limp and he had no energy left to hit him.

Feng Yu glanced at her quickly and smiled in an inappropriate manner.

It seems easy to win the hearts of women in this world. Why do I hear that Brother Gu is still a boy? I really can’t figure it out.

…………

Fanyang Jiedushi Mansion.

An Lushan's fat body slowly moved towards the main hall. Li Zhu'er, his confidant and bodyguard next to him, supported him. He was exhausted every step he took.

The world is so strange. A fat man who has trouble walking actually harbors wolfish ambitions and wants to rebel.

When the power in a person's hands reaches a certain level, his mentality will gradually expand. No matter how clumsy or incredible it seems, the things he does must be in line with his expanded mentality, regardless of success or failure.

Sun Xiaozhe stood respectfully in the corridor of the main hall. Seeing An Lushan staggering towards him, Sun Xiaozhe stepped forward and supported his other side.

An Lushan smiled at Sun Xiaozhe, and the fat on his face instantly squeezed out a pair of small mung bean eyes, making the whole face look like a flawless ball of flesh.

"Commander Jie, an envoy from the Su Mo tribe came and met with the general this morning..." Sun Xiaozhe said carefully.

An Lushan's eyebrows were dull and he said with a voice: "What did the envoy say?"

Sun Xiaozhe showed an indignant look and said: "The envoy took advantage of the situation and wanted to increase the price. He said that 300,000 shi of grain and 10,000 war horses were not enough. He asked us to add 10,000 war horses and 100,000 jins of pig iron. Otherwise, we would withdraw the troops stationed in Yingzhou.

Twenty thousand soldiers and horses."

An Lushan snorted and said: "Tell the envoy, this is the price, without adding a penny. If they dare to withdraw their troops, I will fight hard to afford the troops, and I will destroy the Su Mo tribe first!"

Sun Xiaozhe was obviously quite surprised by An Lushan's reaction. He hesitated for a moment and said carefully: "Jie Shuai, our arrow is already in the string. We can't create any complications. In the opinion of the general, why not... agree to them for the time being and wait for Jieshuai.

After conquering the Tang Dynasty and dominating the world, it is not too late to turn to Su Mobu for surgery..."

An Lushan chuckled and said, "I have nearly 200,000 strong soldiers and horses under my command. The soldiers and horses of the Su Mo tribe are not urgently needed for me. How dare they increase the price at this time of year? I am not as good as they want. Xiaozhe,

Go and rebuff them, and tell them that if they dare not join me in raising an army, I will destroy the entire Sumo clan and teach them not to leave their dogs or chickens behind."

Sun Xiaozhe was stunned for a long time, and then responded with clasped fists in disappointment.

An Lushan glanced at him quickly and said: "You speak for them so much, you must be receiving their benefits, right?"

Sun Xiaozhe was startled and said hurriedly: "I don't dare. I don't receive any benefits. It's all for the sake of the commander-in-chief's plan."

An Lushan sneered: "Not a cent? Why do I remember that you received a thousand horses and ten thousand kilograms of pig iron from the envoy? These things are worth a lot of money when sold."

Sun Xiaozhe was so frightened that he was heartbroken. He didn't expect An Lushan to be so clear about the benefits he secretly received. Even the amount was exactly the same. He obviously had an informant around him.

Sun Xiaozhe fell to his knees with a thump, and said in a trembling voice: "I am guilty of this, please forgive me for the sake of my mother."

The adultery between Sun Xiaozhe's mother and An Lushan had long been an open secret among the generals of Fan Yang's border army. It was made a joke among the generals for a while, but Sun Xiaozhe was not ashamed and considered himself An Lushan's adopted son.

Seeing him begging for mercy, An Lushan couldn't help but sigh and said: "I don't blame you for accepting benefits. I am not a clean person to begin with. It's just that accepting benefits depends on the timing. Now is the time to raise troops and start an uprising. We must

What we are doing is to lever up the century-old stone of the Tang Dynasty and replace the Li family. For such an important matter, any mistake may cause the success to fail. How can you abandon the public affairs for personal gain at this time?"

Sun Xiaozhe nodded and said sadly: "Yes, the general will finally realize his crime and will never dare to do it again in the future."

An Lushan said kindly: "Don't worry about it in the future. If you do something wrong, you will still be punished. Otherwise, wouldn't the military law I set become a joke?"

He turned around and motioned to his personal guard Li Zhuer, who handed him an iron boring bar.

An Lushan smiled kindly and said: "Good boy, close your eyes, stretch out your left hand, and hit you once, just once, and the matter will be over."

Sun Xiaozhe trembled all over, closed his eyes tremblingly, gritted his teeth and stretched out his left hand.

An Lushan's smile was still friendly, but a stern look flashed in his eyes. He raised the iron boring bar in his hand and swung it down hard. The iron boring bar fell on Sun Xiaozhe's left hand, and there was a crisp sound. Sun Xiaozhe screamed miserably.

The wrist hung limply, and it looked like it was broken.

Asking his personal guards to carry out the screaming Sun Xiaozhe, An Lushan showed a stern expression and coldly snorted: "They are all a bunch of unworthy things!"

He turned to Li Zhuer and said, "Ask the envoy from the Sumo tribe to come to my house, and I will talk to him personally."

Li Zhuer had been serving An Lushan for a long time and was already used to this kind of scene. He responded calmly when he heard the words.

After walking a few steps, Li Zhuer stopped again and asked curiously: "Jie Shuai, when are we going to start an attack? Yesterday, several generals came to the house to pay homage to Jieshuai. Jieshuai was not in the house, and several generals were pestering him.

The villain has been asking for a long time, but he doesn’t know how to answer.”

An Lu thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "Come on, I will store another batch of food and grass. It will be enough for the army for a year. In one year, it can account for at least half of the Tang Dynasty. The emperor of Chang'an is cowardly and treacherous.
