Han Hai Tang Ergui

Chapter 430
Yizhou is the Hami of Xinjiang in the later Republic of China.

As the first city on the northern Silk Road after leaving Dunhuang, Yizhou has also benefited from the restoration of the Silk Road and is much more prosperous than before.

However, it was precisely because of the prosperity that the status of the Chen family, the governor of Yizhou, declined a little.

Because the Pugu family didn't pay much attention to Yizhou, they just regarded it as the first barrier of resistance in case of an enemy coming from Hexi, and the Chen family was happy to be a sandbag in Yizhou.

But it is different now. Since the prosperity of the Silk Road, Yizhou has gradually become prosperous.

The clan members of the Pugu family are greedy for the prosperity and business tax of Yizhou, and a group of people headed by Di Luoda Gan Pugucheng continue to extend their hands to Yizhou, which leads to the gradual decline of the status of the Chen family.

Because Wang Jiulang offended Jieli Pijia, Wu Da'er and others were escorted by Uighur soldiers and horses on the same day, and they were driven out of Gaochang.

Jielipijia thought that there would be no envoys in Gaochang, but when Wu Da'er and others went to Jielipijia's king's account, Wu Da'er's younger brother Wu Yuan'er had already come to Yizhou secretly.

In the north of Yizhou City, at the foot of Tianshan Mountain, the Shichengzi River rushes down from the mountain, impacting the rich Hami Basin.

A famous Hami Shichengzi Reservoir will be built here in later generations, making Hami one of the most prosperous places in the entire Northwest.

At this time, this rich basin belongs to the Chen family, and the Chen family and the Gaochang Han people attached to the Chen family are working hard here.

These more than [-] mu of land produce a large amount of rice and beans every year, and they weave a large amount of cloth here.

A large part of the famous Gaochang white cotton cloth is produced here.

Wu Yuan'er saw the prosperity of the Hami Basin, and understood why Zhang Zhao wanted to attack the Uighurs in Gaochang better than Wu Da'er.

With the rich Hami Basin, Hami is a focal point for controlling the entire Anxi.

In the future, the Liang Kingdom could garrison troops here. If they had more than a thousand troops, they would be a stable logistics supply base.

It's no wonder that after the Guiyi Army lost Yizhou, Zhang Huaishen, the second generation of the Guiyi Army's Jiedu Envoy, was quickly criticized for this, and he couldn't control the turbulent public sentiment.

"This is the land of abundance in Anxi! The governor sits on such a treasure land."

Wu Yuan'er dragged his voice, and Chen Huiyao beside him felt complacent, but what Wu Yuan'er said next made his complexion change drastically.

"Sitting on such a treasure land, does the governor know how his descendants will die?"

Chen Huiyao's face changed, and the eldest son Chen Tingxiao beside him glared at Wu Yuan'er.

"Is the envoy here to play tricks on me? Dare to say such a thing, treat me as a coward of the Chen family, and dare not kill you?"

"Hahaha! Sure enough, a young hero with a sense of pride!" Wu Yuan'er didn't care.

"Chen Dalang thinks that someone is insulting you? No! Now the Pugu family of the Gaochang clan has their eyes on your family property. In this country, there are more Uighurs than Tang Er, and sooner or later you will be submerged.

Moreover, this Yizhou is the family business that I advocated for the king of heaven in the past, and I can control Anxi, so it is impossible not to snatch it.

Dudu and Dalang-jun, please ask yourself, can they stop the tens of thousands of troops from our Liang Kingdom? "

However, Wu Yuan'er said that the Chen family seemed to be facing a catastrophe, but Chen Huiyao was not nervous at all.

Because this may happen in the future, but not now, even if it happens in the future, the Chen family has ways to deal with it.

The clans of the Pugu family didn't have many people at all, and they didn't know how to farm and manage the land. They didn't have the ability to annex the tens of thousands of members of the Chen family, and the worst thing was to be sucked by them.

On the other hand, if they seek refuge in the Liang Kingdom, the war may come soon. Who knows if the Liang Kingdom can eat the Pugu family?
Once they can't eat any more, not only will the current happy life of the Chen family be gone, but they will also face catastrophe immediately.

Of course, it was not that Chen Huiyao was unwilling to seek refuge with Zhang Zhao. Zhang Zhao was also Tang Er. In the past, Chen Huiyao's great-grandfather was also a hero under Zhang Taibao and Zhang Yichao. It was not shameful or uneconomical to seek refuge with Zhang Zhao.

But Chen Huiyao's plan was that he must see Liang's army, at least Zhang Zhao showed his willingness and strength to annex Gaochang Uighurs before he would join him.

Wu Yuan'er saw Chen Huiyao's unflappable old fritters, and knew that verbal intimidation must be useless.

Chen Huiyao is already old, even if he is not old, his heart must be old.

Such an old fritter just wanted to save his family and life, and at most he would add his clansmen. The risky things had exceeded his ideas and needs.

But well!Wu Yuan'er glanced at Chen Tingxiao beside Chen Huiyao with the corner of her eye.

The old one is useless, but this young one, although his eyes are very unfriendly, but on the contrary, he can be attracted and used.

After all, young people's minds are full of ideas such as building a career and making a fortune. Compared with middle-aged people, they are more likely to burst out with enthusiasm.

So Wu Yuan'er pretended to be helpless and let out a long sigh, "I never thought that before arriving in Wenrou Township, I have already lost my heroism!

In the past, Emperor Wu Chen quelled the chaos of Hou Jing and continued the culture of the Han family in the most dangerous time. What a hero, but his descendants have become just trying to make ends meet! "

Emperor Wu of Chen is Chen Baxian, unlike the few people in later generations who know it, people at this time still respect Chen Baxian very much.

Most people think that he ended the Hou Jing rebellion, when Hou Jing was about to kill all the well-dressed nobles in Nandu, and when the Han family culture was about to be cut off, he turned the tide and avoided the severance of Wenhua that had been for thousands of years.

In fact, this is also the case. Compared with later generations chasing Ran Min and thinking that he saved the Han people in the north, in fact Chen Baxian of the Southern Dynasty did the same thing, and the credit should be greater.

Without Chen Ba first destroying Hou Jing, after Hou Jing killed all the Wenhua families in the south of the Yangtze River, he would cut off the inheritance, which is not just for fun.

Although Chen Baxian was extinct in the end, the emperor of Chen in the Southern Dynasty was the descendant of Chen Baxian's elder brother Chen Tanxian.

But the whole southern Chen royal family's nostalgia and pursuit of Chen Baxian is very strong.

Chen Huiyao's face changed back then, but he was not angry because of Wu Yuan'er's words, but because he felt that Wu Yuan'er wanted to use words to arouse the impulse of his son Chen Tingxiao and others.

"It's getting late, please let the envoy set off! It will be bad if you are detected by the ranger sentry of Pugu's family.

My Chen family's heart is towards the king, but I have no choice but to be blocked by the vast sea. Please forgive me for our helplessness. "

Wu Yuan'er had already locked the target, and she had no intention of continuing to argue with Chen Huiyao, so she put on a business-like smile.

"The governor's difficulties must be reported to the king of heaven according to the facts. It's just a pity that the governor made such a choice. The young heroes of the clan will never see the beautiful scenery of the hometown of Jiangnan where the grass grows and the birds fly."

. . . .

Mohe Yanqi, eight hundred miles away, is the terrifying desert between Dunhuang and Yizhou on the sandbank. When Tang Xuanzang passed through here in the past, he always had lingering fears.

Later generations even processed this place into Monk Sha's Quicksand River, but there are so many quicksands that the river is completely invisible. Not only is there no river, but the entire Moheyan moraine has almost no water source and no life.

Just at the entrance of Moheyan Qi, there is a small stone city, which has an extremely beautiful name in later generations-Xingxing Gorge.

And there are also people here, a small tribe of more than a hundred people nomadic here, they are called small comforters, which actually means Xiao Zhongyun people.

They are actually the same race as the Zhongyun people in Zhongzhou, Liangguo. Those who surrendered to Gaochang Uighurs at the northern end are called Xiaozhong comforters, which means they are a minority.

These small people comforting days were originally very sad, but after Zhang Zhao defeated Zhongyun Kingdom, their lives changed.

In order to make up for the shortage of Khotan's population, Li Shengtian kept asking Li Ruoliu to move the Dazhongyun people of Zhongyun Kingdom to Khotan.

And the vacancy left by Da Zhongyun's departure was gradually filled by the small crowd of comforters.

For this reason, the Zhongyun warriors controlled by Li Ruoliu clashed with the Gaochang Uighurs many times.

The hundred or so people at the entrance did not leave, but Zhang Zhao actually left behind on purpose.

If you observe carefully, in this tribe of more than a hundred people, the proportion of daughters and children is very small, so small that it is abnormal. Most of them are sturdy fighters.

As soon as Wu Yuan'er led a dozen or so riders to the entrance, there was the sound of horseshoes behind him.

The knights around him immediately became nervous, and the nomads who were here to comfort the herdsmen also immediately took their bows and arrows and stepped on their horses.

Wu Yuan'er waved her hands confidently, signaling the surroundings not to be nervous, and then asked a knight beside him to turn around and run to the weathered sand pile and shout.

"But Chen Dalang from Yizhou is here?"

"That's right! Please stop the angel!"

Sure enough, a loud answer came from behind, and when he got closer, it was Chen Huiyao's eldest son, Chen Tingxiao, who was chasing after him with a dozen or so Chen family sons.

Wu Yuan'er laughed loudly, he looked at Chen Tingxiao who looked a little embarrassed because of the rush to chase and said with a smile.

"I read that right, you, Chen Dalang, really have the spirit of a hero."

I don't know whether it was because of being tired or because of Wu Yuan'er's praise, Chen Tingxiao's face blushed a little, he jumped off the horse and cupped his hands at Wu Yuan'er.

"The angel knows that XX will definitely come after him?"

Wu Yuan'er nodded resolutely, "It's not that someone knows this, but what the king of heaven said to someone when he set off, he said that someone will definitely come after the Chen family in Yizhou?"

"Oh!" Chen Tingxiao's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked.

"It turned out to be what Zhang Tianwang said, and the Tianwang also knows about our Chen family?"

"Of course the king of heaven knows, Mr. Dalang, do you know why the king of heaven insists on asking your Chen family to take refuge?

Could it be that with the strength of my Great Liang and hundreds of thousands of cavalry, I can't directly cross Mobei to raid Futu City like the Khitans did in the past, insisting on going to Yizhou to take Gaochang?

No!If it wasn't for Yizhou being guarded by your Chen family, the Heavenly King would never have sent someone there. "

"Why did the king send an angel that day?" Before Chen Tingxiao could ask, someone behind Chen Jiaerlang was already asking loudly, obviously attracted by Wu Yuaner's words.

"That's because the King of Heaven told me that in the land of Hexi, the Chen family is the same as the Zhang family and the other families of the Guiyi Army, they are all upright men.

Emperor Chen Wu was such a hero in the past, and he made great contributions to the survival of the Wenhua of the Han family. Among his descendants, there must be heroes.

I, Great Liang, not only want to use the Chen family to destroy the Gaochang Uighurs, but also bring the Chen family back to the country, so that the descendants of Emperor Wu of Chen can see the land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River with their own eyes. "

For the Chinese, nothing is more useful than flattering his ancestors.

After listening to Wu Yuan'er's words, Chen Tingxiao and other ten people were all blushing, wishing they could find a few Pugu's family members to kill them now, to show their heroism.

Chen Tingxiao was like drinking wine, he was a little drifting, and it took him a long time to bow to Wu Yuan'er to the end.

"Although Chen is blunt, he still has great ambitions. Please ask the angel to report to the king of heaven, and say that the Chen family in Yizhou will never fall into the prestige of their ancestors.

Please rest assured that the Chen family's two thousand sons are willing to follow the king of heaven and return to their homeland. "

Wu Yuan'er nodded, "I believe in Mr. Da Lang, but your father seems to disagree, so what can I do?"

"Simple!" Chen Tingxiao showed a fierce look on his face.

"Pu Gu's family sent their clan to be tax collectors in Yizhou. As long as the heavenly king sent a message, a certain person would lead the brothers in the clan and kill the tax collector of the Pugu family. If you don’t go against it, you have to go against it!”

Good guy!This turned out to be a good and filial boy!
"But..." Immediately, Chen Tingxiao seemed a little embarrassed.

"I also have one thing, I hope the angel can report to the king of heaven, and ask the king of heaven to fulfill it."

"Please tell me." A doubt flashed in Wu Yuan'er's mind, she looked embarrassed, as if it had something to do with the relationship between men and women.

But this kind of thing, what does the king of heaven need to do?
Speaking of this matter, the embarrassment on Chen Tingxiao's face stopped, and he began to gnash his teeth a little bit.

"A certain book has an appointment with the daughter of Gaochang Di Luoda Gan Pu Gucheng's daughter, but today Khan wants to marry some Bugla Khan, because the princess is still young and can't do anything, so...!"

Speaking of this, Chen Tingxiao's expression became more and more painful, "So the Khan intends to let the daughter of Di Luo Dagan, who is married to a certain person, marry Nabugla Khan together with the princess!

Please let the angel return to the king of heaven, I, Chen Tingxiao, am willing to go through fire and water for the king of heaven, but please the king of heaven, I will definitely help such a shame! "

Wu Yuan Erzhi thought about it for a while, and then he understood what was going on.

Because it was his elder brother Wu Da'er who went to blackmail Di Luoda's servant Gucheng.

Looking at it now, it should be that after Pu Gucheng couldn't afford the several thousand pennies to redeem his body, the Chen family went out of their way to make up for it.

It may be that Pu Gucheng felt that the relationship with the Chen family could not be strained, so he agreed to marry his daughter to Chen Tingxiao, the eldest son of Chen Huiyao, the head of the Chen family.

But it never occurred to me that the Khan Jielipijia of the Gaochang Uyghur was planning a marriage with Buglahan Saktu.

It's just that the daughter is still young, so I want to use the daughter of the clan cousin Pu Gucheng as a dowry, as a substitute when the princess is unable to do anything.

But Pu Gucheng originally had a grievance with the Chen family because of the ransom fee, and finally settled it with his daughter, but now the daughter can't get married.

Perhaps because he was afraid that the Chen family would be resentful due to fate, he secretly revealed this unfulfilled marriage in an attempt to reduce the anger of the Chen family.

But hey!Wu Yuan'er laughed, not only let him know the secret, but also pushed Chen Tingxiao, who had been robbed of his mother-in-law, to Liang Guo's side.

"Don't worry, Mr. Dalang, no matter whether he sweats or not, no one can snatch the mother-in-law and aunt of the hero of the Han family. This revenge, the king of heaven will definitely avenge it for you."
