Da Wei Chun

Chapter 668 A Great Achievement

"The sun came out from the west, why did the old man suddenly change his mind?"

Li Chengzhi looked outside the courtyard, and Cui Guang had already boarded the carriage, before Wei Zijian even waited, he asked the driver to drive the carriage, as if he was afraid that he would regret it.

"As the saying goes, good dreams are hard to come true, there are many twists and turns, and this matter can't be done overnight. The Shangshu is like this today, but it's just a matter of course, and it will happen when it happens. But you are too busy with the case, and you are so busy that you haven't calmed down..."

Wei Zijian said sadly, "The former emperor's fashion is considered good: although he is very happy and eager for success, at least he knows how to use people well, is frugal and compassionate to the people. The only thing that the world criticizes is that he is too indulgent to his relatives, but he is too strict with the Zong family. .

But the so-called flaws do not hide the goodness, the late emperors were talented and general, and worked hard to make the country strong and prosperous, so the people's hearts and expectations were naturally aroused.Even if the clan holds a grudge, they can only bear the humiliation.

But it's a pity that the first emperor went too suddenly, and the new emperor is young, and the queen mother is just a woman, who has lived in the deep palace for a long time, how much experience can she have?
Of course, if you can follow along, you can barely maintain it.But the bad thing is that the Empress Dowager has little knowledge but is indecisive.Worrying about gains and losses, looking forward and backward, he was eventually taken advantage of by the clan.

The so-called extremes of things will be reversed, and the extremities will be restored. Once the Zong family turns over, how can it not stay the same and intensify?That's why Yuan Ying, Yuan Cheng, Yuan Jia, etc. have repeatedly made gossip and treacherous schemes, framed persecution, sowed dissension, and did everything they could to their relatives.In the end, it became self-defeating, forcing you to turn against the Gao family, and then to raise troops one after another... This is the reason! "

Li Chengzhi was thoughtful: "What about the fruit?"

"The result is that the Empress Dowager and the royal family Yelang are arrogant, conceited no one, and underestimated you and Gao Zhao too much. They failed to prevent the unburned disease and cure the disease from scabies. On the contrary, one wrong step, one wrong step, finally made the situation unstoppable." tidy.

But it is too late to mend the situation, such as the Empress Dowager, Yuan Cheng, etc., in desperation, can only drink poison to quench their thirst, and go fishing in a dry lake, until the sun goes down, and finally they are powerless.As for Shangshu, although his eyes are as bright as a torch, and he has the ability to turn the world around, he has repeatedly remonstrated and stated his interests, but the Queen Mother, Yuan Cheng and others turned a deaf ear to him and insisted on going his own way.What's more, because the honest words are harsh, they are even more suspicious, and even more troublesome..."

After a short pause, Wei Zijian sighed helplessly, "The imperial court sent the minister here to persuade you. It seems that he knows how to make good use of it and entrusts him with great trust. But in the end, it's also because the minister has repeatedly violated his words and made admonitions, which has made the queen mother tired. No end, simply out of sight and out of mind..."

Li Chengzhi murmured: "The Shangshu has worked hard and devoted all his energy and energy. I don't know how much effort has been spent. But because the master is fatuous and the treacherous sycophant is in power, all previous efforts have been wasted, and the heart of serving the country with fists and fists has been wasted. If I were Shangshu, I would inevitably be disheartened. Depressed..."

"It's fine if you can really feel depressed. At worst, you can stay in the West Sea and wait for death. But seeing that the building is about to collapse, how can there be any eggs under the overturned nest? Even if it is about to die, half of it will be buried in the ground, but Shang Shu can't be heartless So righteous that he doesn't even care about his children and grandchildren, right?
In fact, ever since the news of Cui Yanbo's defeat and Rouran's retreat came successively, Shang Shu already had such thoughts.But he was hesitant because he was concerned about his fame.However, yesterday I suddenly heard the news that Xi Kangsheng’s youngest son was actually under your tent to listen to orders, and now you have entrusted him with an important task as the commander of tens of thousands of troops and horses, and was ordered to lead the army to go out. The Shang Shu couldn’t sit still..."

I see?

Li Chengzhi had expected a long time ago that Li Daxi's flag to show his heart of selling horse bones would have a miraculous effect. Didn't expect the effect to be so obvious?

If I knew this earlier, I shouldn't have kept it hidden, and let Daxi show up in front of Cui Guang earlier.It's even okay to show Cui Guang the letters that Xi Kangsheng had had an affair with him.

But it's not too late, the timing is just right...

He thought about it for a while, and bowed deeply to Wei Zijian: "Although there is a reason for the incident, the Shangshu can help out righteously, and it is absolutely inseparable from my uncle's lobbying day and night, and my son-in-law knows it well... Here, I will thank my uncle in advance." ..."

" Between you and me, why do we need to see each other?"

Wei Zijian waved his hand indifferently, "Before this, because of Shangshu's affection, I could only hide my appearance and help you in secret. But now that Shangshu has already shown the truth to others, naturally I have nothing to do. Scruples. If there is an assignment in the future, it will be..."

As far as Li Chengzhi is concerned, Ben and the Gao family are already at odds. If there is a day of success, it is Li Chengzhi's great compassion to keep his line of incense.

But who would have thought that Gao Wenjun would give birth to the eldest son, and Li Chengzhi even named him "Yuan", which shows great hope?

Therefore, Wei Zijian will inevitably think too much: One day, there is no guarantee that the Gao family will not recover.

Although Zhang Jingmo is just a concubine, Li Chengzhi still loves her very much, and he doesn't favor one person over another, and this is only second.

What worries Wei Zijian the most is: Now that the entire Zhang clan has surrendered, and all the descendants of the clan are Li Chengzhi's confidantes, there is already a tendency to compete with the Li clan.What's more, Zhang Jingzhi is shrewd and capable, knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and now he is exhausting himself, forgetting to eat and sleep, and he has organized the civil affairs that were originally chaotic.Vaguely has been Li Chengzhi's first aid.

Therefore, Wei Zijian was already anxious, wishing to go out of the mountain immediately to help Li Chengzhi.It has been weighed many times, whether to write a secret letter, let Li Chengzhi send a secret agent to Beijing, and call the Wei family's children to serve in Xihai.

However, unlike the relatively loose clans in Guanzhong, the gentry in Shandong (to the east of Xiaoshan) have always been united in the same spirit, and they all prospered and all lost.If Wei Zijian fights with his brains and joins Li Chengzhi openly and aboveboard, he will get his wish in the future, and he will be criticized by others and become the laughing stock of the family.It's hard to say that one day he will end up like Gao Zhao.

Therefore, even if he was anxious like an ant on a hot pot, Wei Zijian could only endure it forcibly.

But now Cui Guang finally couldn't restrain himself, and wanted to leave a way out for his children, grandchildren and clan members, which naturally made Wei Zijian ecstatic.

Cui Guang is not like him, he can only represent the Wei family, but has long been the mainstay of the Shandong family, Dinghaishenzhen.

To the imperial court, this kind of people's categorical surrender to Li Chengzhi is not just as simple as betraying a chief assistant or a Zhongshucheng.The destruction and influence brought about can be called a tsunami, shaking the earth.

It was only natural for Wei Zijian to show his face in public...

Li Chengzhi can roughly guess what this uncle is thinking.But he didn't care, on the contrary, he was happy to see the result.

Of course, it is only limited to the fact that Wei Zijian was a governor and should be a cadre, not his status as a relative, and his family background...

In Xihai today, the Li family is already the dominant family, but this is by no means a blessing.If the development continues like a snowball, it is impossible to say that one day the dragon slayer will eventually become a bloody drama of a dragon.

Therefore, instead of turning against each other, it is better to make arrangements early and try to balance them.

What Li Chengzhi valued the most was actually Huangfu Rang, a talent with outstanding personal abilities who had been reduced to a commoner family.

Therefore, the great support given to the Zhang family is just out of helplessness that no one can use.Cui Guang's thirst for talents is only because he is a capable minister, and his literary name is well-known all over the world, not because he is the leader of his family.

Of course, it is still too early now, if Li Chengzhi reveals his intentions too early, everyone will betray his relatives, and he may even become the enemy of the world, so for the time being, he is thinking in his heart...

Thinking secretly, Li Chengzhi sent Wei Zijian out of the other hospital, and then retreated to the left and right, gradually falling into deep thought.

It is natural to stop the war, but when and how to stop the war are very particular.

First of all, we must put enough pressure on Yuan Wei, and make a posture that I will soon cross the Yellow River and Longshan.Make it chaotic without fighting, and lose every inch, so that it can be gradually crushed.

Secondly, it is necessary to reserve a retreat for the next troop dispatch.

If soldiers enter Longshan, they will be suspected of directly targeting Guanzhong, and nine times out of ten they will force the Yuan and Wei dogs to jump over the wall in a hurry, and the fish will die and the net will be broken.

However, in the west of Longshan Mountain and the land of Longxi to the east of the Yellow River, you can plot one or two things.

However, it is necessary to keep trying to know where the bottom line of the Yuan and Wei Dynasties is. At the very least, we must grasp the middle speed: even if it can cause chaos in the imperial court, it will not die with the West Sea.

If not, at least occupy Tianshui County.

One is to borrow troops from Nanliang to avoid repeating the old tricks of the Yuan and Wei Dynasties.But as long as Chen Bing is in the hinterland of Qinzhou, Nanliang will be afraid to send troops from the Six Paths of Qinling Mountains.Naturally, Li Chengzhi was spared the worry of being attacked by the enemy.

The second is that as long as Tianshui is guarded, it is tantamount to holding the Weishui between the two counties in his hands.

Since Zhang Yun, the famous general of the Three Kingdoms, was able to stand out from Luoyang and go up the Wei River, he defeated Zhuge Liang's hundreds of thousands of troops.Li Chengzhi can naturally go down the river and raid Luojing.

What's more, even if we temporarily suspend our troops to make peace, Xihai must not take the initiative first, otherwise it will expose the truth that Li Chengzhi is already a paper tiger.Therefore, it is still a posture of attacking and let the court take the initiative to seek peace.

Today, the so-called "million army" by the imperial court has gone to eight out of ten, leaving Yuanyao as a single seedling.Once the queen mother and the princes in the court heard the news, they were bound to be terrified and trembling with fear.

I was afraid that Li Chengzhi would fight Longshan and even point at Luoyang, so it was inevitable to seek peace and stop the war, not for Li Chengzhi to take it for granted.

At that time, you can raise conditions vigorously.

Li Chengzhi's main purpose is food.

After defeating Luo Jian, only [-] to [-] town troops were captured.Forced by Luo Jian, there are [-] townspeople who moved to Xihai to occupy Nest's Nest.

And there are more Dunhuang townspeople who were recruited by Li Song and Yuan Zhi, nearly 20 households.So in just one winter, the number of private households tripled.

If that's the case, don't worry too much.After all, Dunhuang Town has farmland and pastures, and the townspeople can be self-sufficient.

With successive victories, countless cattle and sheep were looted from Tuyuhun and Rouran, and it was not difficult to feed the 20 households in Xihai.

But the problem is, if Li Chengzhi lives by herding, he can only live in the land of water and grass in his life.Such as the West Sea, or Daqi, or the two foothills of Qilian Mountains.

Still plotting the Central Plains of wool, one by one wool deer?

It is impossible to herd herds, even if you live ten more lives.

Therefore, it is inevitable to immigrate to Zhangye, Wuwei, and Longxi, and to move the political and military centers eastward.

Because of this, after Li Chengzhi was sure that Tuyuhun was defeated, Cui Yanbo was defeated to Hedong, and Rouran had retreated, he did not stop doing two things, and resolutely killed half of the livestock.

It is to think of all the people, even including his own way out.

But now that Xihai has nearly a million mouths, it is impossible to eat meat every day.Besides, it won't last long, so the court still needs to lend a helping hand.

By the way, we need some fertile land, grain seeds, agricultural tools, and livestock, etc., so that it is convenient for immigrants to farm and farm.

Thinking about the empress dowager's "compassion for heaven and earth" with the princes, there is absolutely no reason why they shouldn't...

After thinking for a long time, Li Chengzhi had a plan in mind.Immediately he called Li Xiaoxian and gave him paper and ink.

I saw that the pen was like a snake, and it took nearly an hour to write before I wrote several secret orders.Then they installed them one by one, sealed them with wax, and gave Li Xiaoxian an explanation, ordering him to send Tangqi to Huangfurang, Li Liang, Zhang Jingzhi, Daxi in Hexi, Li Feng and Li Yongshou who lived by Yanhu Lake, and all of them. Li Song of Dunhuang.

But just halfway through the instructions, a personal guard came to Bing suddenly, saying that it was Li Liang, deputy commander of the South Road, reporting urgently.

Li Chengzhi took it apart and looked at it, and his brows were immediately filled with joy: Six days ago, Li Liang and Daxi soldiers divided into four groups, starting from Xiqiang (now Yongjing, Gansu), Zicheng (now Gaolan, Gansu), and Naowei (now Jingtai, Gansu). ), Quyin (now Jingyuan, Gansu) four counties forcibly crossed the river.

Although Cui Yanbo has heard the news, his subordinates have already become frightened.But when they heard the thunder, they scattered like birds and beasts, and they didn't even keep their feet for a day.Ren Cui Yanbo, a world-renowned general and unrivaled genius, could only lose again.They had to gather and retreat a hundred miles away to set up an array at the source of the Weishui River.

In just two days, all the [-] troops crossed the river.And Li Liangyu was released back to Yuanqin two days ago.Knowing that Rouran was defeated and that the Xihai army wanted to detour to the six towns, Yuan Yao had no choice but to retreat to the North. Whether it was Yuan Cheng or Cui Yanbo, they were all panicked and terrified.

He also listened to Yuan Yao and told him to stick to it. Although Cui Yanbo was unwilling, Yuan Qin was already scared out of his wits.After adding oil and vinegar, the gods and gods that the Xihai army said were strong and strong.Furthermore, Yuan Cheng acted both hard and soft, and if he refused to comply with the order, he would hand over his military power to threaten him. Cui Yanbo had no choice but to retreat again and again, and retreated to Tianshui.

Just now I was thinking, it is better to ask the imperial court for Longxi when it is time for negotiation, or it is better to fight for it.But he didn't want to, Li Liang took down the land of Longxi like a soldier without bloodshed?

Haha, it's really dozing off, and the pillow was delivered?
As long as it was shot down, the surname would naturally be Li.Even if the court doesn't want it, it's nothing more than nonsense.

If you have the ability, why don't you call me?
Li Chengzhi was overjoyed, and hurriedly put the secret letter to Li Liang before and burned it to a handful of ashes under the lamp.Then he picked up the pen tube again and wrote again.

Under the excitement, Mao Jian seemed to tremble: "Don't be greedy and slow to advance, or you will be self-defeating... As long as you keep Longxi well, you will be a great achievement..."

After writing in a hurry, Li Chengzhi felt that it was not enough.After pondering for a while, he shouted in a solemn voice: "Now that Rouran has retreated, if he wants to make a comeback in a short period of time, it may be difficult for him to ascend to the sky... That's why, quickly send an order to Li Feng and Li Yongshou: Juyan Lake, Junji Mountain South, Li Yongshou will lead one guard to garrison. Li Feng will lead the rest of the five guards to rush to the aid of Longxi immediately, and it will be controlled by Li Liang..."
