Chapter 169

"This person is not completely a fool."

Looking at the pushing sickle in front of him, Huangfu Weiming rarely showed a smile on his face.

After hearing his comments, the king over there said with a rare smile: "It is reported that in Chang'an City, the cement he made can turn mud and sand into stone, which has been used to pave roads, build houses and build cities. He has some skills... but he is arrogant and offended the doctor."

"Hey" Huangfu Weiming glared at him: "Don't even think about pleading for him, ignorant, dare to judge border affairs without learning some lessons丨How can you know that the sky is high and the earth is thick?"

This is the first time he has revealed why he is embarrassed by Ye Chang.

It is rare for the king to know about the things in Chang'an City, how could Huangfu Weiming not know about it? Moreover, there are some things he knows more clearly than it is in Wang. For example, Ye Chang used the old story of Princess Jincheng and fiercely criticized the strategy of marriage.

This is Huangfu Weiming's old scar

When Princess Jincheng married, there were some voices of opposition inside and outside the court, especially since the Quanrong repeatedly broke the alliance and invaded the frontier, so Li Longji also hated him. In the 18th year of Kaiyuan, the Quanrong, who had been repeatedly frustrated invading the Tang Dynasty, asked for peace again. Li Longji did not allow it, but when Huangfu Weiming learned about it, he persuaded Li Longji to say that the border trouble caused by the robber nature of Quanrong was "a temporary contribution to the border" and "a fake letter of merit to Lord Xi", and persuaded Li Longji to accept the peace request, thinking that this would "rest the border forever" and "a way to rest in the forever era."

In other words, Huangfu Weiming was the one who was strongly advocating the peace faction against the Quanrong, and was sent as an envoy by Li Longji to visit Princess Jincheng. However, the ambition of the Quanrong wolf was not changed because of his strong advocacy. The internal invasion was still, the border was uneasy, and the careless Longyou Jiedushi Gai Jiayun was defeated.

Li Longji didn't know what he thought, but actually sent Huangfu Weiming, who had been promoted to the rank of the procuratorate, to replace Gai Jiayun. As for the fact that he had been on a mission to Quanrong to be familiar with the border situation, he still thought that he insisted on seeking peace and causing the current situation, so he sent him here, so he didn't know

Therefore, Lord of Reconciliation is an old scar that Huangfu Weiming cannot wash away. Although he became a border general, he tried his best to prepare for war, hoping to be promoted to Chang'an with his military achievements, if someone mentioned his Lord of Reconciliation back then, he would be furious.

But Ye Chang's comments were also known to him through some channels.

He naturally understood that the person who made him know about this had bad intentions and wanted to borrow his knife to get rid of Ye Chang's thorn in his eyes, but it didn't matter. Ye Chang's plan embarrassed him, and he didn't have much kindness at first.

As for Princess Yuzhen's face, people like him who are close to the prince will naturally know that if they give it to you, they will give it to you if they really don't give it to you. Could it be that Princess Yuzhen can still run to Emperor Sanlang to cry?

It was rare for Wang to hear him say this, so he could only smile.

Huangfu Weiming treated him well, and it can even be said that he had the kindness of knowing and meeting him. The king still remembered himself that after killing Quan Rong Zanpuzi, he was recommended to the emperor by Huangfu Weiming, and the glory of the situation was tested in front of the palace.

"Keep this thing, no matter whether he succeeds this time or not, it will be useful in the future. But don't worry, I just teach him a lesson 丨If he has such skills, it will be difficult for him to really lose his life... Didn't he lend someone from you, so you can be convenient for him."

With Huangfu Weiming's permission, the king was very happy. It is true that he wanted to dig out the people around Ye Chang, but wouldn't it be more beautiful if he could conquer Ye Chang with him.

"I was pleading for you from the doctor's side, and finally got the doctor's reply. Ye joined the army, you must do your best, don't embarrass me."

When he returned to his army, Ye Chang was waiting, and Wang Nan said seriously.

"General, don't worry, there will be no mistakes in harvesting wheat. In addition... I would like to ask the general to allow me to mobilize the military general to act cheaply." Ye Chang said with a smile.

"That's natural, the people I send to you will naturally listen to you."

It was rare for Wang to agree in full, but in fact, he certainly would not forget to give in to his generals. He should not listen to some orders that he should not listen to.

After receiving the three thousand soldiers sent by the king, Ye Chang pieced together and found more than two thousand civilians. With the five thousand men and the newly cast scythe, they began to prepare for the harvest. With the help of the scythe, the 5,000 people took turns to work, and the people stopped and the tools were not stopped. The harvest progressed very quickly. In two days, they cut off the wheat fields around Hongji City. On the third day, they began to harvest further.

The craftsmen in the craftsman were rewarded by Ye Chang, but worked very hard and worked overtime. Not only did they change all the sickles they had originally stored into push sickles, but they also increased at a rate of 300 handles per day. Not only did Ye Chang's manpower get 2,500 handles of push sickles, but a large amount was also transported to other parts of Guzhou every day.

This is also the harvesting strategy set by Ye Chang. Taking advantage of the fact that Quanrong did not understand the effect of pushing sickles, he quickly seized the border grain. As for Shanzhou, which is even further back, he could put it in the back to harvest.

However, the Quanrong people also had calculations about when the wheat was ripe. They drove sickles to harvest, and there were Quanrong Rangers peeping around from time to time. The first and the second day around Hongji Castle, the Quanrong Rangers just looked around from afar and did not dare to get too close. On the third day, a little far from the castle, the Quanrong Rangers began to peeping.

"As he really is like a fly, Ye Shiyi has to find a way to drive them away, otherwise the military and civilians will not dare to harvest them."

Li Bai was very impatient with this and suggested to Ye Chang.

"It's true...but how to drive it away?" Ye Chang was also a little nervous. These Quanrongs and flies were like flies. If you chase them, they would run away. If you don't care about them, they would buzz back. With them wandering around, the military and civilians could not concentrate on harvesting.

"They are fast horses and good at riding... It's hard to capture them." Gao Shi frowned and then looked at Nan Jiyun.

Ye Chang also looked at Nan Jiyun. There was no doubt that the crossbow was the first to deal with such an enemy.

"I'll try it." Nan Jiyun didn't promise. He rode a horse, walked dozens of steps on the wheat field, and then got off the horse and sat on the ground.

Seeing that he was the only one, the Quanrong Ring hesitated for a moment, then three cavalry came over. They were unhappy at first, but when they saw that Nan Jiyun did not react, they accelerated a little. When they approached for only more than a hundred steps, they suddenly shouted and then accelerated forward.

In their opinion, it's definitely a big cheap

Ye Chang looked at this scene and thoughtful. On the other side, Gao Shi also had his eyes shining, as if he had thought of something.

Nan Jiyun still remains unmoved.

The opponent's speed was getting faster and faster, but Nan Jiyun seemed to be frightened and did not move. But when the opponent entered Nan Jiyun's range, Nan Jiyun suddenly turned over and took off his bow from the saddle.

He instantly turned the string, then raised his hand and shot, with almost no aim, and shot out with three arrows connected.

The three riders, Quanrong, fell one by one, and the horses under them couldn't hold back for a while. They only recovered when they rushed to Nan Jiyun. However, Nan Jiyun grabbed one of the good horses, turned over, and then turned the horse's head and rushed towards the panicked Quanrong cavalry.

Nan Jiyun's shooting technique can be described as a sharp shooting technique, but his riding technique can only be considered excellent, which is still inferior to these Quanrongs that grew on horseback. Therefore, although he struggled to chase them, the Quanrongs still escaped. However, this time, Quanrong did not escape for a distance and stopped and waited, but fled straight away.

Obviously, Nan Jique's shooting skills frightened them.

Nan Jiyun chased after him for half a mile. Seeing that the distance was getting farther and farther, he stopped, led the scattered horses together, and returned home proudly. Ye Chang personally held a cup of water and handed it to him: "It is not advisable to drink wine here for the time being. Chang used water instead of wine, and toast Nan Bayi Cup - a real hero."

"That's right, we all have to respect it," said Cen Shen.

Everyone paid tribute to Nan Jiyun one by one, which made Nan Jiyun's face slightly red and his eyes lit up.

Just like Ye Chang's judgment on him, Nan Jiyun is a proud man. He can treat soldiers like his brothers and sisters, but because of his low background, he is most afraid of being looked down upon by scholars and officials. Needless to say, Ye Chang is a real famous scholar. If he can treat him like this, he will not be unhappy in his heart.

"Sadly, the horse is not strong enough. Otherwise, the enemy would not have been asked to escape," he said with a sigh, loud and loud.

"The endless blood of Quanrong, the endless head of Hu Lu, Nanba, are you afraid that there will be no chance to continue killing the enemy?" Ye Chang laughed.

His expression was relaxed, and the miserable clouds that had been shrouded in him have now disappeared.

After shocking the Quanrong Rider this time, the surroundings were indeed much more peaceful, and even the Quanrong was missing. Seeing this, Ye Chang was a little hesitant, and Gao Shi came up and said, "The time is here. If you don't take it, there will be future troubles."

Ye Chang's heart was terrified and he looked at Gao Shi.

"Use wheat to lure the enemy." Gao Shi said: "Take an opportunity to defeat the thief."

"I'm afraid it's inappropriate..."

"Whether it is not something you are worried about whether it is thorough or not. We are just offering suggestions. Could it be that Shiyilang still wants to take over his merits?"

Ye Chang laughed. He was just afraid of leaking the news, so how could he take advantage of his merit?

However, Gao Shi proposed this at this time...

Ye Chang felt a little regretful. After all, he could not count on these famous figures in history to be able to rely on him. Since this is the case, it would be better to go with the flow and help him reverse the situation. Gao Shi had the opportunity to display his talents earlier, and perhaps he would be able to seek help from him at that time.

At least he is much more reliable than Huangfu Weiming and others.

"I can't come forward for this matter, so I'll ask Mr. Gao to go." Ye Chang whispered: "I think so..."

The two of them bit their ears, but deliberately avoided Cen Shen and Li Bai. Cen Shen is nothing but Cen Shen. Li Bai has a big mouth and can hardly hide any worries. If he knows it, he might have missed it at any time. Since he wants to hide it from Li Bai, Yu Qian and Cen Shen will hide it together.

The two discussed repeatedly and discussed the plan without any loopholes. Gao Shi bowed to Ye Chang: "Changran, thank you."

"It's time for you to be a good man." Ye Chang said.

The two smiled knowingly, Gao Shi got on the horse and went back to Hongji City. Li Bai and Cen Shen were talking around Nan Jiyun. When they saw each other, they were about to ask, but Ye Chang came over again and pulled them to discuss what to do if Quanrong came to harass him again. This question attracted them, and they temporarily put Gao Shi's departure behind their heads.

Half a day later, Gao Shi returned, and he winked at Ye Chang.

"Okay, okay, according to today's situation, we will definitely be able to collect all the food before the Quanrong attacks." Ye Chang said: "Everyone will continue, I will go back to the city to ask for credit for everyone-Nanba, you can stay here and take the rovers to drive away Quanrong, don't let them bother everyone."

Nan Jiyun received the order, and Ye Chang and Gao Shi and others returned to Hongji City.

Originally, the Longyou Jiedushi was not stationed here, but Huangfu Weiming was eager to make contributions and wanted to return to Chang'an earlier with his border merits. Therefore, he moved his residence to Hongji City, threatening to the outside world to prevent autumn.

When Ye Chang arrived, he saw that there were more people in the city today than usual.

"It is reported that the ambassador of the military supervisor has arrived - so is the court, so what ambassador of the military supervisor?" Gao Shi whispered.

Ye Chang was very clear in his heart. The military supervisor was Bian Lingcheng. This guy didn't come early. If he could come a few days earlier than him, Ye Chang wouldn't have to look at Huangfu Weiming's expression. However, making friends with eunuchs is not a glorious thing, so Ye Chang kept silent. Instead, Li Bai next to him sighed: "What is used in the court, either a priest or a eunuch. No matter how wise the emperor is, he is surrounded by small people, so how can he do it?"

He was inspired and Gao Lishi also put a lot of effort into driving him out of the forces in Chang'an.

"Haha... There will be half of the Tang Dynasty's troops on the west side, and it would be strange if the court did not send military commanders." Ye Chang hesitated for a moment, thinking of Li Bai's political naive disease that always stood in the wrong position, and felt that it was necessary to wake him up: "Although the emperor was tired of politics, he still did not want to lose power."

Gao Shi, Li Bai and Cen Shen are both smart people, but Li Bai is a little naive in politics. Cen Shen is still inexperienced. He was awakened by Ye Chang and immediately realized it.

This is not only a matter of distrust of the border generals, but also a big problem, which is the relationship between Huangfu Weiming and the Prince of the East Palace.

Huangfu Weiming was in Longyou and Wang Zhongsi was in Shuofang. The two towns had almost half of the troops in the world. They were also close friends of the crown prince Li Heng. The prince of the Tang Dynasty used his father as the emperor, but there was a tradition.

This is a cruel conclusion. Cen Shen is fine, but Li Bai was a little stunned: "This...Shiyilang, you guessed it nonsense.

"You are with the emperor. You can know what the emperor is. Think about it carefully." Ye Chang thought of his sister-in-law and finally added: "Taibai, the affairs of the three common people are not far away... By the way, what Taibai said today, you are tighter. If you say it, I will definitely refuse to admit it."

Gao Shi and Cen Shen both laughed, and Li Bai suddenly blushed: "Am I the kind of person who talks nonsense?"

"I think so." Ye Chang said.

"I think so, too." Gao Shi also said.

"Agree upstairs." Cen Shen wrote a post - naturally I learned from Ye Chang again.

Li Bai was depressed: "But I don't know that in the hearts of you, Bai is actually such a person - Bai wants to break up with you."

"This is a good thing. If you don't have a big mouth, how can you eat everywhere? How can you talk about the masterpieces in a row?" Ye Chang comforted him and said.

"Ye Shiyi, are you really comforting me?"

"Sincere, full of sincerity..."

When the few people laughed and made fun of each other, they were indeed not young. Gao Shi and Li Bai were over forty years old, Cen Shen was just thirty, and Ye Chang was less than twenty years old. However, this is the case with the so-called friendship of forgetting age. They did not smile until the military yamen. Ye Chang exchanged a look with Gao Shi, Gao Shi nodded, and Ye Chang stepped in.

Since Gao Shi has arranged everything, then... and there is another Bian Lingcheng, there should be no problem.
