Chapter 1242: Gao Fengliang Festival?
When Guo Ziyi brought people here, he only heard that Du Shiyi met with Huaiyi Khan here, and thought he was just here to be a guest, and he didn't take it too seriously. However, when he entered this castle with small sparrows, he learned that Pugu Huaien and Cheng Qianli had already come by himself, so he was a little puzzled.
Even if An Lushan's turmoil that swept most of the north was able to subside so quickly, it was largely thanks to the Khan of Dubo Huaiyi who turned against him at a critical moment. Otherwise, Hedong would not have been able to defend the battle, but Du Shiyi would not have summoned Pugu Huai'en, Cheng Qianli and himself to come here. Since he was suspicious, he would have to ask Huya, who came to meet him in person: "The Marshal summoned us on the occasion of receiving Khan of Huaiyi. Is there anything else?"
"I don't know this." Huya blamed Yu Jingjing for this matter, but said with a smile, "Not only the two generals and General Pugu, General Pinglu Hou and General Li also arrived before."
So, except for Hun Shizhi's return to Youzhou after regaining Miyun County, Pugudang was in charge of Yuyang, another hero under his command, Han You, was in charge of Miyun, and other powerful generals in the Jiezhen Town who had made contributions to regaining Hebei were actually Yunji Zhenyuan Army? How could this be a gathering of heroes
After thinking about this, when he really arrived at the conference hall, he saw that Jiji was all the top generals of the Tang Dynasty. Guo Ziyi had to hide all the questions in his heart and smiled and bowed to see them one by one. After Li Mingjun was in Xiancheng, Xin'an, he followed Du Shiyi. He didn't care when he disappeared. When Anyang, Ye County was recovered, he had just met this person, but later he disappeared. According to Du Shiyi, he was sneaking back to Pinglu. At this moment, he saw him standing side by side with a general who was less than fifty years old and had a strange face. Obviously, his friendship was very good. Guo Ziyi immediately understood that it was Hou Xiyi who rose up in Pinglu.
He couldn't help but wonder in his heart. If An Lushan was alive, he would probably be angry to death when he saw this scene in front of him. He had been Hou Xiyi's boss for more than ten years, but he could not match Du Shiyi, who had only been Hou Xiyi's boss for two years in Yunzhou.
Hou Xiyi's attitude towards Guo Ziyi was warm but he did not lose his composure, so he naturally would not interfere in his affairs and speak in a very deep manner. He had a lot of torture in his career. At the beginning, Zhang said he valued him, but Wang Jun looked down on him. He made great contributions in King Xi's tent but could not be used. If Du Shiyi had not recruited him, he would be afraid that even his background would be rare. Zhang Shouqi transferred him but deliberately suppressed him. When he moved back to Pinglu, he finally opened up the situation. At this moment, he and Pugu Huaien and others gathered together to discuss the tactics of war and the progress of pursuing the remnants of the rebels in various places, and he was happy.
At the end, Cheng Qianli couldn't help but ask: "By the way, is that Khan Huaiyi still talking to the Grand Marshal? I'm very curious about him. He was able to start from a corner and now annex the territory of the Khitan and Xi people, which is no less than the restoration of Gudulu."
"When Gu Dulu was restored, it caused trouble to cause trouble in the northern border prefectures and counties of the Tang Dynasty. At that time, Empress Tian changed his bad surname to him in anger, but it was hard to hide his majesty as he rose to the north of the desert. How dare I compare with such a person?"
With this voice, everyone saw a strong middle-aged man appearing in front of him. He was broad-eyed, big-eyed, heroic, and his every move was natural and compatible. No matter from any angle, it was very consistent with the image of the generation of heroes. This person did not bring his followers, and just entered here alone, chatting and laughing freely. Such a demeanor was heartbreaking. Even though Guo Ziyi, Cheng Qianli, and Pugu Huaien met this famous upstart in Mobei for the first time, they all praised him in their hearts.
It's indeed a hero, no wonder An Lushan's silly fat fat man couldn't recruit him
"Luo Yi has met all the great commanders"
Seeing that the other party was so polite, everyone was forced to return the tribute. Pu Gu Huaien smiled heartily and said, "There are two great generals here, but General Hou and General Li are not counted."
"Not now, but that's the case in the future." Luo Ying smiled slightly, and saw that Guo Ziyi and Cheng Qian's colors changed slightly, he made a fuss and never continued this topic. He had been the leader of the clan for so many years, expanding his territory to recruit heroes. He was no longer the clumsy-mouthed situation in the past. Then he brought everyone closer together in a few words. When Guo Ziyi asked about the promise that Du Shiyi would betray the alliance with An Lushan, he smiled and said, "Marson Du had promised me that he could give up the Anbeiya tent to me, but I had declined it before. Although Wudejian Mountain is good, it is not my hometown."
After talking about the idea of the East-West Treasure Point, Guo Ziyi felt relieved when he met these generals in front of him, Cheng Qian showed admiration, and Pu Gu Huaien was a little more intimate with him. Luo Ying couldn't help but be very grateful for his choice.
The Turks were destroyed, and the Uighurs and the Khigas changed a new master. Although Geluo had a nominal co-lord, there were many conflicts between the left and right sides, Tong Luopugu was Du Shiyi's right-hand man. His sudden rise was unstable. If he forced to swallow the big with a small one, he would not only have many hidden dangers in the future, but also face the danger of conflicts and Du Shiyi breaking. Not to mention the years of love, we must remember it in our hearts, even in terms of gains and losses, it is not worth it.
"The Marshal is here"
Hearing this voice, the generals immediately stopped talking and returned to their own people, and they were in a state of solemnity. Luo Ying also retreated to the guest seat, looking clear from the generals. When Du Shiyi came in, he saw that Zhang Xing and Chen Baoer were clearly behind him. Everyone present was familiar with these two. Zhang Xing was enforced by Du Shiyi as the chief secretary since Daizhou, and he has been following him all the way. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the most trusted trustworthy person. Chen Baoer started from Du Shiyi as an official in Shuzhong. Although he had been vacant for several years, he could do everything to implement his teacher's purpose.
"Everyone, please sit down. Hebei has been pacified. I, the marshal of the recruitment, should have retired. Everyone should not be so arrogant." Du Shiyi smiled easily and said to Luo Ying, "Khan Huaiyi, please sit down. You are a guest from afar. Don't let people laugh at me for neglecting the guest."
Seeing Du Shiyi say this, everyone relaxed, but they still waited for Luo Ying, the guest, to sit first before they sat down one by one.
"At this time, I should have been waiting for the special envoy from Nanyang, King Wei Shangshu and General Gao Da, in Youzhou City, to come from Chang'an. However, Khan Huaiyi has not come easily. Moreover, the war in the Youyan rebels was not good at fighting. They could have relied on the Xi people and Khitans behind them to recruit soldiers to continue fighting. Thanks to his efforts to sweep the rear, even the Silla people who were ready to move back, so we came to Zhenyuan Army to meet him first." After explaining the origin of this, Du Shiyi suddenly changed his mind, "And to be fair, I don't want to see these envoys of the court."
As soon as these words came, there was a buzzing discussion.
Guo Ziyi knew the purpose of the trip of Nanyang King Li. He and Hun Shizhi were rushed to Qingyuan by Du Shiyi. After reading Du Youlin's handwritten letter, others were not very clear about it. Cheng Qianli was shocked and suspicious. Therefore, when Du Shiyi said that Li was here to surrender Shi Siming on behalf of the court, the emperor not only agreed to give him the title of Youji Jiedu, but also retained his troops and continued to occupy Fanyang County, Tanzhou Miyun County, and Jizhou Yuyang County. Pugu Huaien had the most violent temper. He immediately stood up and cursed: "It's unheard of what is going on in Chang'an."
"If the war ahead is unfavorable, it would be fine to surrender Shi Siming like this, but at that time, seeing that there were only three counties left in Hebei, he still made a wish to grant an official position and even gave these three counties generously. Is it a prodigal son or not? "Hou Xiyi sneered and said harshly, "After all, Your Majesty thinks that Marshal Du has made too much contribution and intends to make some trouble. If I am not mistaken, I am afraid that in addition to making such books, Marshal Du and Prince will give it at will, and then add a road to comfort Hebei. The rest of the troops will return to the guards, and now they can sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight."
"Be his daydream." Pu Gu Huaien was teased by Hou Xiyi and slapped hard on the handrail with a bang. "I only know how to use the emperor's mind to control people, and the foolish monarch."
The word "心号" almost made Cheng Qianli jump up. He himself, the governor, was expelled by Wang Chengye. If it were not for Du Shiyi's support, he would have been unjustified. No one in the Hedong army had cursed the tyrant king, but the meaning of scolding on such occasions was completely different. He secretly looked at Guo Ziyi, saw Guo Ziyi smile helplessly, and finally stood up.
"But now that Youzhou has been pacified, Shi Siming has been defeated, and the biggest purpose of the King of Nanyang has been lost. The marshal and I might as well welcome and treat them well and send them back."
"That's what I think." Du Shiyi knew that Guo Ziyi was in the plan to calm things down. He nodded to him, and then said lightly, "What Xi Yi said just now, although I was angry, I was actually too lazy to go back to Chang'an. Everyone wants to be prime minister, but since Kaiyuan has been a virtuous prime minister, but although everyone praises Yao Song, how many years have he been prime minister? Li Linfu everyone knows that he is sweet-mouthed and arbitrary, and he is a prime minister for his own sake, but how many years have he been prime minister? I still have the same purpose as before. Instead of going back to Chang'an and fighting every day, it is better to do something that I can do. After this chaos in Hebei, I don't know how many rebels have fled in the villages in various places, and the situation of grain prices rising ten times, so someone needs to stay and preside over it. Since others want me to take this leverage, what if I take it?"
Cheng Qianli only said that Du Shiyi was angry. Pugu Huai'en said the foolish emperor, and maybe Du Shiyi would say something about clearing the emperor in the next moment. If Zi's prestige is almost gone today, as long as Du Shiyi gave orders, he was afraid that the army would probably follow him back to Chang'an without thinking. The result would be unpredictable at that time. He never expected that Du Shiyi was so noble and noble.
He had the most distant relationship with Du Shiyi and couldn't help but stand up, and bowed and said, "No one can wait for a thousand miles to return to Hedong. He will do his best to transport grain and support Hebei."
As Cheng Qianli took the lead, Guo Ziyi was surprised and admired Du Shiyi's decision, and was also inexplicably resentful, but he was even more moved after all. Shuofang's military farming in the Hetao Plain is now quite effective, so he naturally agreed to transport grain for assistance.
Seeing that Hou Xiyi, Li Mingjun and Dubo were angry but didn't say anything, Pugu Huai'en immediately said with a sinister face: "If the marshal appeases Hebei, what about Anbeiya tent?"
"Hui'en, you have been with me for many years and you can stand alone. This time, you can successfully recover the entire Hebei region, and you all rely on your bloody battles. I have already drafted a memorial for you to ask for me. In addition to Ziyi and Qianli's award, please give Huai'en the Great Protector of Anbei, Hou Xiyi as the Jiedushi of Pinglu, and Li Mingjun as the Great Protector of Andong."
But Du Shiyi looked outside the chamber. Today, he made such a public statement, from top to bottom, he would soon know that Du Shiyi had no intention of the bullshit things in the court, but was willing to stay in this war-torn Hebei area so retreat. If the King of Nanyang Li took Li Longji to his life during this trip, the army would be bombed in three minutes.
At that time, don't blame him for not leaving a chance
