Chapter 268 Liu Chonggui's Old Way (Continued)

Liu Chonggui said: "When the interests are tempted enough, robbers will also be vigilant. The Hedong Army is famous, but the three towns in the pass are united, and the Hedong Army may not be willing to mobilize many expeditions. After all, the three towns of Heshuo (Hebei Province) and the Xuanwu Army are eyeing each other, and the Hedong Army does not dare to be empty in the nest."

Wei Fufeng said gently: "My father-in-law, Li Maozhen has always been committed to internal rule. With the granary of Xichuan and the salt salt of the salt pond, it is difficult to move Li Maozhen."

Liu Chonggui nodded and said, "I just suggest to fight with preparation. After all, Xichuan blocks Longyou and puts your rule in a passive way."

Wei Fufeng said: "The barriers in Xichuan are indeed like thorns, but if troops are sent to seize them, the huge losses in war will likely trigger a crisis of ruling, and the son-in-law dare not act quickly."

Liu Chonggui nodded and was silent.

Wei Fufeng turned his head and thoughtful. After a moment, he said gently: "We should be prepared to fight. The young son-in-law ordered Yuzhou to prepare for war, which would at least make the soldiers excited."

Liu Chonggui nodded and said, "You must deal with things in the pass carefully. Wang Xingyu is a mad dog. In the past, because Shuofang is vast and sparsely populated and the Hedong Army is intimidated, Wang Xingyu was unwilling to gain more than he deserves the loss, but now you occupy Fuzhou, which is equivalent to snatching food from the mad dog."

Wei Fufeng's face was solemn, and Liu Chonggui said again: "If Wang Xingyu joined forces with Han Jian, he might not have attacked Hezhong Prefecture. Perhaps he unexpectedly went south to Wuguan Road and directly attacked Junzhou. The wealth of Junzhou is better than any prefecture in the pass."

Wei Fufeng pointed and said, "Thank you for your father-in-law's teachings, so I'll make arrangements for precautions now."

Liu Chonggui whispered: "Fufeng, while I am still angry, please transfer Haisu to the vicinity of Yuzhou. Haisu is conservative and is not suitable for dealing with the Han and Barbarians. I also want to be not far away."

Wei Fufeng nodded and said gently: "If you get Xichuan in the future, your eldest brother will serve as the Yin of Chengdu. Now you can transfer any department, and your son-in-law needs to consider it."

Liu Chonggui smiled and nodded, whispering: "In the future, we will be the governor of Xichuan in our name. After all, I am still the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty. It is easier for the people of Xichuan to accept it than Li Maozhen. Don't use Wei Xiang's name. Wei Xiang cherishes his own reputation and fails in Xichuan."

Wei Fufeng hesitated and nodded, and Liu Chonggui said again: "There are so powerful in Xichuan. People's hearts need a transition. It is not appropriate to force the rule of the southern Sichuan army. The best way is to boil the frogs in warm water and exchange time for the stable surrender of Xichuan."

Wei Fufeng nodded and said, "My son-in-law knows that the Tang Dynasty has not yet been exhausted, and the people's hearts are still attached to the glory of the Tang Dynasty."

Liu Chonggui nodded, Wei Fufeng stood up to say goodbye, went to the place where he stayed last night, and shaking his daughter while holding her, thinking about how to act.

Liu Chonggui's words touched him a lot, making him awaken himself, unconsciously imprisoned by conventional thoughts, ignoring variables and unexpected crises.

Tian Wen'er, who received the letter, came to the state yamen to reunite. As soon as they met, Tian Wen'er asked, "What happened? Why didn't you meet on the way?"

Wei Fufeng talked about his conversation with Liu Chonggui.

Tian Wen'er frowned and said, "Do you guys want me to go back?"

Wei Fufeng nodded and said, "The Lingnan conquest can only be in autumn and winter. I will go to Fujian to rescue disasters and build a city. You go back to Sizhou and borrow 20,000 troops to prepare for war. I inform Li Ziqi to stay away from Chengdu to suppress bandits and avoid being transferred to Fengxiang Mansion."

"Mr. Liu is just a guess and talking about war on paper. We believe it, but we are afraid that it will be useless to waste financial resources. The people of Dongxi will not be able to fight." Tian Wen'er resisted.

Wei Fufeng said: "Just treat it as a martial arts exercise, try to mobilize the military strength of Dongxi. In addition, I will pretend to mobilize the military strength of Yuzhou, and falsely say that it will go south to fight. Even if Li Maozhen is unmoved, it can show the power of increasing troops, strengthen our morale, and shock Li Maozhen, making Li Maozhen afraid to mobilize the military strength of Xichuan and reduce the Longyou crisis."

Tian Wen'er nodded, suddenly hit Wei Fufeng's chest and said resentfully: "I don't want to separate. The fourteenth lady said that Jiu Niang might be pregnant."

Wei Fufeng was stunned, hugged his lover, and after a few breaths, he lowered his head and whispered: "We are still young. You must be the commander of the capture of Xichuan. All my children are your children. If one day I leave first, you must protect my descendants."

"What's the matter first, don't talk nonsense." Tian Wen'er was so annoyed that she pounded Wei Fufeng with her fist.

"The title of emperor is the peak of glory, and there are not many people living longevity." Wei Fufeng whispered, lowering his head and kissing his lover.

......

The main forces of the three towns in the pass evacuated from Chang'an, but the military forces stationed still threatened the court, making Zhaozong unable to sleep or eat, and he woke up from his dreams.

On this day, Wei Zhaodu's letter arrived, and Zhaozong visited the book, and the content of the letter was somewhat similar to the character of the teacher.

The preface is to count loyalty, while the last words are the purpose.

Wei Zhaodu meant that Chang'an's military power was unusable, and he intended to establish the Luling Jiedushi, use local support, and build elite military power for the court.

Wei Zhaodu suggested that the court fight against the rebellion of Zhejiang and dispatch 3,000 troops in Chang'an to the Luling Jiedushi.

After reading the book, Zhaozong looked gloomy and gloomy. His first reaction was disappointment. Wei Zhaodu did not urge Wei to be loyal to the court.

Zhaozong still believed in Wei Zhaodu's loyalty, but he was deeply worried about Wei's success.

The Wei family occupied a vast territory in the southwest and seized Longyou. They have not yet reported their victory to the court. They are obviously not interested in the court and are unfaithful to the court.

If there were no three towns in Guannei, wouldn’t the Wei family have half of the Tang Dynasty?

Zhaozong felt cold in his heart, as if he had foresaw the Wei family, and it was like Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan who entered the pass and seized the Sui Dynasty and replaced it.

Zhaozong stood up and walked anxiously.

After a moment, Zhaozong suddenly felt helpless and bitter, and realized that he was currently suffering from the crisis of the three towns in the pass.

The more than 20,000 imperial military forces guarding Chang'an actually retreated in the face of danger and allowed the three towns in the pass to run rampant.

"Wei Qing said it is right. Chang'an's military strength is unusable. They are all people who are useless to consume national taxes. What's the use of such military strength?" Zhaozong whispered bitterly and turned around suddenly.

After sitting back to the desk, he thought for a while, picked up his pen and wrote several imperial edicts, and appointed the Luling Jiedushi.

Wei Zhaodu served as the governor of Luling and deputy envoy of Wei Xun. He was in charge of Ganzhou and under the jurisdiction of Ganzhou, Shaozhou, Fuzhou and Jizhou.

The emperor ordered Hongzhou to be dismissed from his post as Jiedushi Zhennan, and appointed the governor of Yuzhang. The governor Zhong Chuan, who was under Hongzhou, and under Hongzhou, Raozhou, Jiangzhou, Yuanzhou and Xinzhou.

Zhong Chuan's important task of rebelling against Zhejiang East was handed over to Wei Zhaodu, the governor of Luling.

Wei Zhaodu was granted the recruitment of Zhejiang East and sent 3,000 troops to the court to obey.

He ordered Qian Liu, the governor of Zhejiang and Wei Zheng, the governor of Sichuan, to do his best to fight the thieves and suppress the rebellion. If he was slacking off and perfunctory, the court would take back all his posts.

Zhaozong submitted a letter and sent an order to pass on the order. He stood up and returned to the harem to drink to relieve negative emotions.

......

Wei Fufeng returned to the General's Mansion of Guizhou and lingered with Tian Wen'er all night. The next morning, he bid farewell to Yiyi.

After Tian Wen'er left, Wei Fufeng asked about caring for Jiuniang.

"My sister can't control her mouth, she's not yet determined." Jiu Niang whispered shamelessly, revealing her uneasy and expectant attitude.

Wei Fufeng stretched out his arms and hugged Yiren, smiling: "You must relax, let's continue to work hard tonight."

Jiu Niang was shy and gentle and said: "It is better to behave properly in everything, and the husband should cherish himself."

Wei Fufeng nodded and whispered: "Two days later, I will set off and you and Shisi Niang will go back to Changsha Prefecture."

"How did the husband change his decision? Why don't he need his wife to stay in Fujian?" Jiu Niang asked.

"Lingnan and Fujian have hot flashes in summer, and now there is a disaster, so it is not suitable for you to stay for a long time." Wei Fufeng explained.

Jiu Niang was silent and showed off her first look on Wei Fufeng's chest.

After a moment of warmth, Jiu Niang whispered: "Thank you for your love, and your wife has the responsibility to share your worries. She also wants to be with her parents in the future, and her mother will take care of her wife."

Wei Fufeng whispered: "It's good, but for the sake of the child, you can't force yourself. If you don't adapt, go north until you are comfortable."

Jiu Niang was gentle, Wei Fufeng said: "I will let the two eunuchs belong to you and act as foreign affairs and cheap things for you."

"Eunuch? That's not right. Wife, I'm not used to it, the princess may be unhappy." Jiu Niang said in surprise.

"Eunuchs are not rare, it's enough for the princess to keep two near me. Now I need the eunuch to do a big thing." Wei Fufeng whispered.

Jiu Niang nodded and whispered: "My wife obeys the arrangements of the husband."

......

The next morning, after practicing martial arts, Wei Fufeng left from Jiuniang and Shisiniang's residence, went to the princess' residence, and arrived at the gate of the courtyard to report.

After a moment, the little princess came out.

"Mr.." The little princess called out awkwardly, and she looked a little shy about her daughter's family.

Wei Fufeng smiled and nodded. The little princess was nine years old and didn't understand the love between men and women. She was far away from her hometown and her parents. She only missed, feared, nervous, and even feared whether she would suffer misfortune.

When he was admitted to the hospital, he told the eunuchs not to follow him and walked into the main room with the little princess.

Wei Fufeng sat down and asked casually: "Yutong, have you sent a letter to Chang'an Book of Ping'an?"

"No, I don't know what to write? I don't know how to deliver the letter." The little princess stood and replied restrainedly.

Wei Fufeng said gently: "You and I are husband and wife, with equal status, sit down and talk."

The little princess nodded and walked to sit down.

Wei Fufeng turned his head and said, "Well, when you arrive in Fujian, you will send someone to Chang'an with the gift of peace letter and filial piety to the Empress."

The little princess nodded and suddenly said softly: "I don't know what gifts I respect? If it is food, it may not be given to Chang'an."

Wei Fufeng smiled and said gently: "I can prepare gifts, so I can't let the queen think that her daughter is wronged."

The little princess was stunned, suddenly lowered her eyebrows and whispered: "Thank you, husband."

Wei Fufeng smiled and said, "I have something important to me, and I plan to call ten eunuchs to do things."

The little princess raised her eyes and nodded and said, "Yes, they are also slaves to the husband."

Wei Fufeng nodded and said, "Two of the ten eunuchs, Yu Tong stayed by his side to listen to them, and the others were going to do foreign affairs. I have already made a final decision on the establishment of Langfeng Mansion, and eunuchs are one of them."

The little princess nodded, and Wei Fufeng said again: "You please the two and say something."

The little princess turned her head and thought for a moment, then turned around and whispered: "Changshun and Changfu."

Wei Fufeng said: "Changfu can be kept, Changshun is very talented, I plan to reuse it."

The little princess was slightly stunned, thought for a moment, and whispered: "I don't know anything else, please stay."
