After the solution to the main tribe of the Emperor, Su Xijie, the captain of Renyong Capital, immediately focused on the Shanbei Quechang. On the surface, he was the "Hu people" who came forward to manage the Quechang for Yang Shouzhong, but in fact he used the place as the base camp to slowly operate the networks of Hedong, Fanyang and Pinglu.

On this day, the turtle tribe had already entered winter. There had just been heavy snow on the grassland. The turtle tribe was still far away, but the turtle tribe was still wild.

However, in winter, the work of Hongshan Metallurgical Field has not stopped. The women in the Bograh department are also working on making wool, felting, weaving felts, blankets, and then making tents and cotton armor.

This time, Sun Xiurong's worker Cao Shenjun Xi Yuanli did not make all his efforts to build weapons for the first time, but focused most of his energy on making iron stoves and coal cakes. Sun Xiurong urgently needed to free the majority of herders from cattle and sheep manure so that the feces could play a greater role.

Near Yuling, a large nitrile field covering an area of ​​about 100 acres has begun to take shape. Of course, with the natural nitrile lake near Gulunbo, the nitrile field is not as urgent as before.

However, the number of people in the north is even thinner, and not many people will devote themselves to the work of cooking nitrogen from the nitro lake. Before that, the nitrogen field was also a must.

The two thousand new troops recruited by the new tribe, Yuwen and Loushi are undergoing full-load training under the leadership of Bai Xiaode. I believe that after the long winter passes, the combat effectiveness of the five thousand Leaf Army will reach a higher level.

The weapons and armor needed for the newly recruited 7,000 new army (two thousand shattered Ye army, two thousand Rao Le army, and three thousand Wei army) requires all efforts this winter to complete. Before that, they can only use their previous weapons, but the Slash Ye army and Rao Le army have some reserves and can also use the equipment of the old army during training.

The Shiwei Army was no longer able to do it, so Xi Yuanli from Hongshan did his best to build an iron stove, and the second priority was to build weapons for the Shiwei Army.

On that day, after preparing a thousand sets of weapons, cotton armor, and five thousand stones of grain, Sun Xiurong was about to take his fangs north to the Wei army to see it. Unfortunately, someone came and delayed him.

The person coming turned out to be Li Mi!

"It has been two months since the Battle of Bayegu. The court should have a strategy to deal with me. I want to see what it is."

"Li Lang!"

"Sun Lang!"

Li Mi, who is only 21 years old this year, is actually wearing a sixth-grade military officer robe today. Seeing Sun Xiurong's strange gaze, Li Mi also smiled and said, "I am currently Qianniu's body walking in the prince's mansion, so I'm dressed like this."

"I see"

After sitting down at the big tent, Sun Xiurong asked, "Where did Li Lang come from?"

Sun Xiurong's question naturally made sense, and Li Mi said, "Starting from Chang'an, crossing the Yellow River at Fengling Pass, then following the main post road of our Tang Dynasty, passing through Puzhou, Jinzhou, Taiyuan, Shuozhou, Yunzhou, and then passing through the Qing Pass Army, and Tiancheng Army arrived in Guizhou..."

Sun Xiurong seemed to see something, and he asked again: "Why don't you go directly out of Yunzhou, pass Heicheng, Yinshan-Daqingshan Canyon eastward? Or go north from Youzhou, pass Juyongguan or northward to catch it north?"

Li Mi smiled and said, "Sun Lang, the key to getting along with you is to be selfless and be open and open. This is also the reason why the court sent me here..."

"The court?"

"Yes, but this time there was no imperial edict. The court knew that you and I had a deep friendship, so we sent me to explore the verbal words first..."

Seeing that he was not fake at all, Sun Xiurong also smiled and said, "Since Li Lang said everything, what else can I hide? Sun Lang, please say it."

"Okay. Let me answer your question just now. The Tang Dynasty has been established for more than a hundred years. Although the country is peaceful and the four barbarians are still under the control of the surrounding tribes, they still mainly adopt the policy of restraint against the surrounding tribes. Why? Naturally, there is a difference between Han and Yi..."

Speaking of this, Sun Xiurong thought to himself: "No wonder this person did not officially join the court system until after the Anshi Rebellion. He used to travel around the world with the title given to him by the emperor and the crown prince. He originally thought that he was so by nature and was obsessed with Buddhism and Taoism. He did not expect that in the Tang Dynasty, he could say this, because he was dissatisfied with the Tang Dynasty's unconstrained recruitment of various tribes."

Li Mi continued: "Sun Lang, I won't hide it from you. Since you are a lie, there will inevitably be one or two people with ulterior motives. Now you have controlled the main tribe of the sacred tribe, and the main tribe of the sacred tribe is connected to the sacred tribe. This road is naturally the best way to go."

Sun Xiurong waved his hand gratefully, "It's a bad thing. The main tribe of the qie tribe was annihilated by the Qie tribe. The qi tribe just thanked him for helping him when his unit was attacked by foreign enemies. Because of this friendship, our tribe can walk freely in the main tribe of the qie tribe."

"Haha," Li Mi smiled faintly and waved his hand, "I won't say this anymore, I've come from this road safely, Sun Lang, do you want to know what the court thinks of you?"

"I wish to hear it carefully"

"Well, before talking about this, let me tell you about the situation around you. After the war in the dynasty ended, the court soon learned the result and made another big move before how to place you..."

"oh?"

"Ashin Shi originally stopped at the mountain pass leading to the northern part of the Monarch. Due to the result of the sect and the fact that you became sworn brothers with him, this guy actually increased his sect to 20,000 cavalry and advanced to the southern foot of Wudemao Mountain."

(Wudhome Mountain, later generations of Hang Ai Mountain)

"Now Usumishi Khan was panicked. In desperation, he had to migrate his camp south for another two hundred miles. At present, the vast Gobi grassland north of Yinshan is already covered with Turks."

"Under this situation, the court naturally had to respond new ways. It was originally intended to transfer Wang Zhongsi to Hexi, but now he was asked to serve as the governor of Hedong again and was appointed as the governor of Anbei University, which was naturally to guard against possible accidents."

"With this appointment, his men also rose. Under his strong suggestion, Li Guangbi, the former capital of Shuofang Army, was transferred to Yunzhou, and became the envoy of Datong Army, and also in charge of Dongshoujiangcheng and Weizhou."

"The former Fengzhou Army Envoy Guo Ziyi was also promoted to deputy governor and still managed the entire Fengzhou army."

Sun Xiurong seemed to understand something, "Haha, with the army of Ashinashi and the Uighurs, Wang Zhongsi's army not only shocked the Turks, but also shocked our troops."

Li Mi's face turned awkward and happened to be seen by Sun Xiurong.

"Dalang, you can say this, but I don't mean this, because Wang Zhongsi was the first general to be appointed as the Great Protector in decades. Although he was the adopted son of the Holy Emperor, he still caused huge waves in the court and the country."

Sun Xiurong smiled and said, "Li Linfu?"

Li Mi also felt a stern, "Dalang, you are far away from the tribe, how can you be so familiar with the affairs of the government and the country?"

Sun Xiurong waved his hand, "You heard from me, Li Lang, please continue to say it."

"Okay. The chief prime minister of the dynasty Li Linfu originally strongly opposed Wang Zhongsi's position as a priest, because this position is generally held by the prime minister or prince. Wang Zhongsi is very likely to enter the house and become a general. He is the adopted son of the Holy Emperor and has served as a priest. If he comes to the court, it is a different story to whether Li Linfu's position as chief prime minister can be preserved. Therefore, he will definitely oppose it vigorously."

"But this time the Holy Emperor made a decision and soon the dust settled. However, in this way, a strange thing happened..."

"oh?"

"Originally, Li Linfu also strongly opposed Hu people like An Lushan to serve as the governor of Pinglu, but with Wang Zhongsi's advance, Li Linfu changed his mind again. He knew that the current governor of Fan Yang, Pei Kuan, was a civil servant and did not stay in Youzhou for long, so he vigorously praised An Lushan. At present, Pei Kuan showed signs of being transferred back to the capital, and Li Linfu recommended An Lushan to the Holy Emperor to serve as the governor of Fan Yang."

"He did this not to be a kingdom in power, but to suppress Wang Zhongsi, because no matter how high a man like An Lushan was in the military sequence, it was impossible for him to serve as prime minister in the court. But Wang Zhongsi was different. In the past, he suppressed An Lushan, but now he suppressed Wang Zhongsi, which is true."

"The Holy Emperor was also a little confused, so he summoned An Lushan. He liked him a little when he saw him. Cough cough, the Holy Emperor newly adopted the imperial concubine liked Hu Xuanwu. But coincidentally, although An Lushan was a fat and rude man, his Hu Xuanwu danced very well, which made the imperial concubine like him very much. In the end, the Holy Emperor, the imperial concubine recognized An Lushan as his adopted son."

Sun Xiurong frowned and thought to himself: "Is it because of my existence that some things have been staged in advance?"

But he said, "Is An Lushan's move arranged by Li Linfu?"

"It's probably true. You think about it. He just wanted to use An Lushan to suppress Wang Zhongsi. How could he not make any arrangements in advance? Besides, An Lushan had just become the governor of Pinglu Jiedu. He happened to have no backer in the court. With Li Linfu, he naturally couldn't get it. He must have brought a lot of bribes."

"An Lushan is in charge of the Northeastern tribes, and the best minks, ginseng and large pearls are indispensable. It is said that the prices of minks, ginseng and large pearls dropped by 10% in the days when An Lushan arrived in Chang'an, which shows how many people carry."

Sun Xiurong nodded, "So, is it almost certain that An Lushan will succeed Pei Kuan as the governor of Fan Yang?"

"Yes, although Wang Zhongsi is a Han general and the adopted son of the Holy Emperor, it is probably not only Li Linfu who asked An Lushan to restrain Wang Zhongsi."

Sun Xiurong nodded in his heart, "To put it bluntly, it's what Li Long meant."

"It's so miserable," Sun Xiurong suddenly became nervous, "In addition to dealing with the northern tribes, Wang Zhongsi and An Lushan were not without the intention of dealing with the monarchy. The Sailing Ye Army was so conspicuous that it might have become their great enemy. Shuofang, Hedong, Fanyang, Pinglu, and any Tang army in the jurisdiction of the Jiedu area is not something I can compete with now."

After a while, Sun Xiurong said, "Forget it, Li Lang should talk about the placement of me by the court."

Li Mi nodded, "The court means to ask Sun Lang to go to Chang'an in person."

Sun Xiurong had expected this, but he did not answer, but asked back: "What does Li Lang mean?"

At this time, Li Mi's expression became solemn, "I suggest Sun Lang not to go."

“Why?”

"I'm not to hide it from Sun Lang. If Sun Lang is a big chief of an ordinary tribe, even if he has a 100,000 entries, he can still go there. However, Sun Lang has a complicated background, with both the background of the Khitan and the connections of the previous dynasty. Since your debut, a series of dazzling performances shocked the court and the public. Such a person is too... dangerous."

Sun Xiurong smiled and said, "So there will be danger when you go."
