A team of 52-man Qianniu Guards arrived at the Wucheng Army successfully and delivered the imperial court's honorary title to the generals of the Wucheng Army. The so-called honorary title actually does not have much practical benefit. It is that the title of marquis and dukes is of great significance. The imperial court has long lost the reality of honorary salary.

Wan Bin received the official document of the title of marquis and the seal of the Huqiu Hou, and was both relieved and depressed. What he was pleased that by being named marquis, he could gain the glorious recognition of the Battle of Changzhou and leave behind the deeds of famous generals in military history.

What is frustrating is that the title of marquis is actually recognized by the Political Affairs Hall, not the emperor's imperial edict. The difference is of great significance. The Political Affairs Hall recognizes a kind of official edict, and the emperor's imperial edict is a kind of gift. One is an ordinary and one is a noble marquis who possesses imperial edicts. The imperial edict can be offered to future generations to respect and honor. The official documents of this Political Affairs Hall are like official documents that serve as officials, and they cannot and dare not let future generations worship and honor.

Wan Bin looked at Fenghou Gongwen standing for a while before suppressing the aggrieved response to Qianniuwei Envoy, asking questions and answering questions. He only knew about the recent events in Changzhou. In the end, Qianniuwei Envoy was helpless and asked Wan Bin to send 500 troops to the adjacent places of Wuxi County and Changshu County to visit.

Wan Bin immediately refused, saying that he did not dare to go out to the Changshu County area privately. The border between Changshu County and Wuxi County is still stationed with 10,000 troops from the left army in Jiangyin. Once he goes, it is easy to cause misunderstandings from the Jiangyin Army. Moreover, his current Wucheng military strength is actually shocking the abnormal movements of the Central Mansion of Wucheng.

Wan Bin refused to go out to protect each other, and the Qianniu Guards did not dare to go alone to investigate. However, they knew that Changzhou was actually a gathering place for prisoners of war and the most powerful place in the Jiangyin Army. Once they were killed, they would die in vain. However, they were ordered to come and discussed privately, they had to visit Wuxi County. After seeing a fortress-like military camp on the border, they did not dare to go there at all. They hurriedly left and returned to Jinling County. After staying in Jinling County for half a month, they returned to Beijing. They reported that Suzhou was indeed occupied by the Zhang family.

Shortly after Qianniuwei left, Xiaoyun, the envoy of the Princess's Mansion, also arrived, handed over two official documents to Wan Bin and left.

Wan Bin returned to the tent, opened the official document and frowned after reading it. One was a copy of the approved official document from the Political Affairs Hall. The request of Princess Wucheng's Mansion changed the name of the Three Thousand Yulin Guards to Huqiu Guards, Langfeng Guards, Nanying Guards, Donghai Houxunwei and Kunshan Houxunwei in the Wucheng fiefdom of Suzhou. They were named as the Princess Wucheng's Mansion and belonged to the Weiwei Temple to control them, and were named Wucheng Donghai Guards and Wucheng Kunshan Guards.

The other is the official document of the Princess's Mansion, and the thousand titled Hou Xunwei who was known to Wan Bin, was one of the escorts of Princess' Mansion of Wucheng, and was given the military name Wucheng Huqiuwei.

But under the beautiful font, it says: "Tiger Qiu Han Jian, meaning handsome."

The font is obviously twice as big as the beautiful font, and it is strong and thick, with a sharp meaning. Compared with the beautiful qualities on it, it is extremely abrupt. Below the word Feng is the princess's seal.

"Who wrote this word? It should be a man. Could it be Lu Tianfeng? What is the purpose of adding a stroke to the official document of the Princess' Mansion?"

Wan Bin frowned and thought to himself that the name change of the Yulin Guard and the request for ownership of the Princess' Mansion could be passed by the Political Affairs Hall, which would not make him surprised. It was just a nominal change and was a means of gentleness towards Suzhou's return to Tang. He was strangely the meaning of the official document. At this time, in his heart, even if Lu Tianfeng was the prince consort of Wucheng, there was no reason that he was above him.

"Dad, why did this sentence be written in this official document, 'Kunshan is so majestic, don't laugh at the old age', what does it mean? It should not be written by Princess Wucheng." A middle-aged general said with a document.

General Gu remained silent and said for a moment: "That is a person's promise. It may be of great use in the future, or useless. If you keep it carefully, if it is lost, it may be a disaster for the family."

"It is better to destroy the disaster of extermination." The middle-aged general said in surprise.

"If it is destroyed, it will be a disaster for the family. Now that it is seen by outsiders, it will cause trouble. Let's hide it secretly." General Gu said helplessly.

"Dad, is this Lu Tianfeng's promise?" the middle-aged general asked softly.

General Gu did not respond, and after a while, he said: "Send the order and let 30% of the soldiers from each battalion go to Donghai County to participate in the work."

"Dad, then it's not good to do it, the morale of the army is easily taken away." said the middle-aged general.

"Then you say that the 90,000 troops in Suzhou, plus the 20,000 Jiangyin army, the 20,000 Wucheng army, and a total of 130,000 troops. Can my 20,000 troops compete?" General Gu asked with a mocking voice.

The middle-aged general was silent, General Gu shook his head and said, "This document is a promise of a person and a suggestive inquiry. If we could retreat to Jinling County at the beginning, we still had a choice. Now there is no way out. Even if the Central Government envoy does not attack us, our military morale will tend to be inclined to the Suzhou army day by day. If we didn't know the situation earlier, we would be afraid that the 20,000 troops would be rebelled step by step."

"That Central Government envoy is really powerful. A woman can actually control the military and political affairs of Suzhou. Zhang Hongbo is a real subordinate. The child doesn't understand. Zhang Hongbo is obviously a powerful military commander. Why didn't he take the opportunity to seize the power of Suzhou? He has directly commanded 20,000 troops, and has the Jiangyin army as his backing." The middle-aged general said inexplicably.

"There are only two possibilities. Either he was not sure of seizing the power, so he didn't want to destroy himself in internal conflict. Or he truly respected Lu Tianfeng and was willing to become a minister. Perhaps, both were there." General Gu replied softly.

"Respect Lu Tianfeng?" The middle-aged general questioned in confusion.

"Lu Tianfeng is more courageous than anyone else, that's certain. Maybe he really has a destiny to win Suzhou or even Changzhou intact." General Gu said softly.

"Well, Lu Tianfeng's luck is indeed very good. The Jiangyin Army is adjacent to the side, so he should have a better advantage in attacking Suzhou. Unfortunately, he gave the opportunity to others." The middle-aged general responded.

"You are wrong. If the Jiangyin Army does the surprise attack, the chance of success is very small, because there must be the eyes of Yue Kingdom within the Jiangyin Army. The reason why Lu Tianfeng was able to succeed was to blind the eyes and ears of Yue Kingdom. Another important reason was that Lu Tianfeng used the surprise attack of surrendered soldiers. The huge role of surrendered soldiers was to attack them inadvertently, and the second was to easily capture the Zhongwu Army as an old one. If the five thousand soldiers of the Jiangyin Army took over the Zhongwu Army, even if the generals and officials of the Zhongwu Army were replaced, once the new generals were found to be the Tang army, it would easily trigger resistance. The surrendered soldiers were different. They were originally the Wu army in Yue Kingdom, and many of them were even generals. Their entry would make the Yue soldiers very little resistance, especially the Langfeng Army, which was the strongest among the Zhongwu Army and could easily suppress the morale of the army." General Gu refuted.

The middle-aged general nodded after being taught and said, "Lu Tianfeng can support the surrendered soldiers and not rebel. The role of the official in holding a silver deed should be huge."

"Yun Tao, you are wrong again. The role of an official levy deed depends on who gave it. The official levy deed given by Lu Tianfeng can play a huge role in Changzhou and Suzhou. If the official levy deed given by the court will have a very small effect. Think about the reason, why did your father let you hide official documents secretly? That's the truth." General Gu taught softly.

"Dad, is it because of Lu Tianfeng's trustworthiness?" the middle-aged general asked quickly.

General Gu nodded and said, "Lu Tianfeng's reputation is extremely trustworthy and dares to act and take responsibility. His actions in Jinling County and his actions in the capital and Jurong County are already well-known in Changzhou, especially the story of his entrusted person to take tens of thousands of silver for prostitutes without being greedy, and after acting tyrannical in Jinling County, he really borrowed rice and returned it twice. His reputation has become deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. That is the value of the princess's official plagiarism, because everyone believes that Lu Tianfeng will not repent the contract."

"Look at the court again. The orders of things are changed every day and change them. The military always says that there are rewards for merits, but the soldiers get nothing. Look, in less than a year, the court will inevitably collect military households under the deed of the Changzhou official custody. At that time, they will taste the bitter fruit of shooting themselves in the foot." General Gu said coldly after he paused.
