Chapter 11: Small Grain Officials' Big Strategies
Xianyu Zhongtong rushed to Shu County, Yizhou without stopping.
It was still the third day of the day, and Xian Yu Zhongtong could not wait to knock on Zhang Qiu Jianqiong's door.
Zhang Qiu Jianqiong was sleeping, and let Xian Yu Zhongtong wake him up forcibly.
With a breath of getting up, Zhang Qiu Jianqiong looked at Xian Yu Zhongtong, who was soaked all over.
It is already hot summer now, and Xian Yu Zhongtong rushed from Jianlang City to Shu County, Yizhou without stopping. He was soaked in water, and the smell of sweat on his body could be smelled from afar.
Zhang Qiujianqiong frowned slightly, rubbed his fingers under his nose, and was about to ask.
Xian Yu Zhongtong said in a panic step first: "The Jiedushi is not good, so the King of Yunnan suddenly killed Zhang Qiantuo, the military commander of the Lingzhou Province."
"What?" Zhang Qiu Jianqiong suddenly stood up, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.
Zhang Qiantuo's status was not high, but at least the official of the Tang Dynasty, a small king from a foreign country, dared to kill their Celestial officials? And it was his soldiers.
"What is the situation? How come the good banquet makes people die?"
Zhang Qiu Jianqiong suppressed his anger and couldn't figure it out.
He still has a good impression of Piluoge, the king of Yunnan.
Piluoge was very polite and did not have the attitude of the King of Yunnan at all. He was very friendly to him, the governor of Jiannan, and even had a little bit of flattery and pleasing.
It is really hard to believe that Piluoge will turn against you if she turns against you.
Xian Yu Zhongtong smiled in his heart and said, "Of course I designed it!" But he said in a daze: "I don't know, but suddenly I learned that Zhang Bingma was killed. He was frightened and suspected that the banquet was a Hongmen Banquet, so he came back to report it directly."
The three words "Hongmen Banquet" changed Zhang Qiu Jianqiong's face.
He naturally did not forget that Piluoge invited him first, not Xianyu Zhongtong.
Just as Zhang Qiu Jianqiong was thinking about what to do, another urgent report came.
"Nanzhao suddenly launched troops to attack Yizhou and seized Yizhou City."
Xian Yu Zhongtong looked surprised, a hint of ecstasy flashed in his eyes, and he shouted loudly: "Hateful Zhongshan wolf, we send troops to help him pacify Shi Langzhao, Jian Langzhao, he actually bit us back, which is really hateful. The Jiedushi, you don't have to be polite to those who are untrustworthy, send troops directly. No matter what, take back the country first."
Zhang Qiu Jianqiong also felt it was reasonable and no longer hesitated. He issued a loud order to mobilize troops. He hurried to the military camp with Xian Yu Zhongtong.
But before their troops gathered, new news came from the island soon.
Nanzhao has retreated!
The Piluo Pavilion, the King of Nanzhao, did not occupy the city of Lanzhou, nor did it move the warehouse of Lanzhou to a qian and a meter. Instead, it killed Zhang Qiantuo's family and his family, and also posted a notice indicating that the reason for the dispatch of troops was that Zhang Qiantuo raped and killed the Princess of Nanzhao and came to take revenge.
Zhang Qiu Jianqiong glared at Xian Yu Zhongtong.
Xian Yu Zhongtong had excellent acting skills and said with a confused look on his face: "I really don't know about this."
Zhang Qiu Jianqiong looked at the commander and said, "Are there any other injuries except Zhang Qiantuo's family?"
The messenger said: "The governor of Xizhou, Xu Hu, and his son, were killed. They did not investigate Nanzhao's defeat and lost the city defense. In order not to let the city fall, the Xu family's father and son urgently summoned more than a hundred guards to fight with the Nanzhao soldiers to death, and died bravely..."
Xian Yu Zhongtong shouted: "It hurts me!"
He burst into tears and cried, "Xu Hu is my friend. He is loyal and loyal, but he was actually ruined by the slut. He was the governor of the Nanzhao and the barbarians were too bullying. His subordinates asked to fight to avenge the governor Xu and his son!"
"No, absolutely not!"
Before Zhang Qiu Jianqiong could give the order, one of them rushed to the front, pulled the reins of Zhang Qiu Jianqiong's mount with one hand and shouted.
The visitor suddenly rushed out, almost unexpectedly.
Zhang Qiu Jianqiong's mount was frightened and took a few steps back.
Zhang Qiu Jianqiong was a civil servant who entered the military and was as good as a horse, and almost fell off his horse.
Fortunately, Xian Yu Zhongtong pulled him and stabilized his body.
Xian Yu Zhongtong shouted in anger: "Who are you? You dare to be so rude."
The person who came was a white-faced scholar. In his early twenties, he ignored Xian Yu Zhongtong and looked at Zhang Qiu Jianqiong with a serious look on his face and said loudly: "Judgesman, you must not send troops. As long as Nanzhao is unwilling to be enemies with our court at this moment, our court cannot attack him."
Zhang Qiu Jianqiong almost made a fool of himself in front of everyone, a hint of warm anger flashed across his face, and he said, "Who are you and why do you say that!"
The white-faced scholar whispered: "A native of Xincheng, Xiahangzhou, has a surname of Xu, and his single name is Yuan, with the name Lingwei. He is a military chief of the COFCO."
When he heard about the military's food rank, Xian Yu Zhongtong immediately showed contempt.
The power of the current Jiedushi has not yet involved military rations. Xu Yuan, the grain official, was not Zhang Qiujianqiong's subordinate, but a member of the Jiannan branch envoy. At the same time, the grain officials in the Foreign Liberation Army were all small officials who were far away from the core.
A small official who is not a good man dares to collide with the governor?
Xianyu Zhongtong is waiting to drink a lot.
Xu Yuan seemed to understand the current situation and shouted first: "Can't the Jiedushi see the overall situation of Duke Pei?"
Zhang Qiu Jianqiong was nervous when Duke Pei Guo was saying this: Pei Min's prestige and status were higher than that of the prime minister in the temple in the Tang Dynasty, and Zhang Qiu Jianqiong did not dare to offend him.
Moreover, Zhang Qiu Jianqiong still respects Pei Min very much.
Xian Yu Zhongtong felt very hatred, but he knew that he could not overshadow the host, so he glanced at Xu Yuan with a bit of fierceness.
Zhang Qiu Jianqiong said in a deep voice: "Tell me what you want?"
Xu Yuanang said: "There are saints in our court, good ministers in the lower court, and there are also heroes like Duke Pei, so they are now powerful and powerful. Now our dynasty has only two strong enemies, and the country is the second one is Tubo. Dashi plans to the Western Regions, Tubo plans to Hexi, and they are allies, and the world knows that they join forces and have great threats to the war situation with the northwest. Duke Pei is worthy of his reputation. He harasses the Tubo from Qinghai and submits his majesty to support Nanzhao attacking Tubo, one after another, making Tubo unable to be at ease. To defeat the situation of the big food and the Tubo attack."
Xian Yu Zhongtong sarcastically said, "Nonsense, it was obviously the decision made by Your Majesty himself, why should you tell the Duke Pei?"
Xu Yuan said without hesitation: "Duke Pei Guo was the governor of Longyou and Hexi, so he naturally could not order Zhang Qiu Jiedu. If it was expected, it must be the Duke of the State who wrote to His Majesty and then his Majesty gave the order. The north and south harassment must be the decision of Duke Pei."
Xu Yuan, a small grain official, looks extremely mediocre. He is young and has a unique demeanor and has undoubtedly revealed Pei Min's strategy.
He actually saw through this!
