In the fifteenth year of Tianbao (756), Yu Yuling (Xilingol), Chun.

The Anshi Rebellion broke out as scheduled. The former governor of the Jung tribe, Pugu Huaien, was ordered to lead 5,000 elite cavalry of the Jung tribe to go south to cooperate with the Shuofang Army to attack Gao Xiuyan, a Datong army envoy who loyally defected to An Lushan.

The sacred part became empty again.

Due to the existence of Pugu Huaien, the Uighur reinforcements in history should have happened in a short time.

At this time, An Lushan's army had swept across Hebei and Henan, captured Luoyang and ascended the throne and became emperor. The army was confronting Geshuhan's troops in Tongguan.

For the Tang Dynasty, as Henan and the Yellow River supply the food and money of the Guanzhong region, Shuofang Army, Hexi Army, and Longyou Army, if Henan loses, there are still a large number of troops in the entire Guanzhong and even the northwest region, due to the lack of salary and food, whether it can be kept is in danger!

Let’s not talk about the Tang Dynasty, but to the north of Youzhou, the main tribe of the shuhe where Yang Shouzhong was located, and the two tribes of the Qige tribe. After the Anshi Rebellion broke out, the largest trading company in Talas, which originally set its base in the hinterland of Yanshan Mountain, finally revealed its original appearance.

Since the city wall built by Yang Shouzhong is made of reddish-brown stones in the surrounding mountains, the surrounding tribes are called Chicheng (later Chicheng County). Chicheng is about five miles in radius, similar to the small county town in the Central Plains. In the past three years, this place has been a stronghold used by Nasri to purchase local specialties of the Khitan tribes.

Last fall, Yang Shouzhong moved his base camp to Shanbei Quechang, which almost became the stronghold of Nasri Trading Company.

It is strange that if it is based on security considerations, in the current situation of dangerous situations such as Uighurs in the northwest, Khitan in the northeast, and An Lushan in the south, only Yang Shouzhong from the Xi people should have set up his base camp in Chicheng in the mountains. Why dare to move to the prairie of the northern mountain field?

At this time, as An Lushan's army had already moved south, the changes in Chicheng finally occurred.

Forty-one-year-old Bai Xiaode was riding a horse on the only street in Akagi, but he felt a lot of emotion.

"How did Dalang know that An Lushan was going to rebel? He also calculated the date of the rebellion so accurately? Also, how did he make sure that our army's plan to use the cover of the Nasri caravan to transfer the entire Thunder Leaf Camp to Akagi would not be opposed by Yang Shouzhong?"

Yes, in these three years, Sun Xiurong asked Nasri to open the Mobei Trading Road. Every time Nasri was dispatched, he had hundreds of camels and at least one hundred large trucks. In the past, this scale only appeared in Sogdian merchants who had the entire country supported by the entire country in the country. Unexpectedly, Nasri did the same in the sparsely populated Mobei.

Although Nasri's ultimate goal was the Muslim tribe and the Khitan, his practice of recruiting herdsmen to set up stations with high-quality conditions still aroused the suspicion of the surrounding tribes. However, as he brought back a large amount of local specialties from the Muslim tribes, the Khitan brought back a large amount of skins, medicinal materials, foals and other local specialties, everyone finally gave up their doubts.

It seems that Nasri's caravan carried some goods at that time, but the hidden items of the accompanying personnel were military supplies. They carried about 500 scattered Ye Army twice a year. In three years, Bai Xiaode's Scattered Ye Camp will not be moved to Chicheng!

Of course, Guo Ziyi, who was guarding the Yinshan area at that time, had stopped the caravan and searched. However, the Salt Ye Army hid all the military supplies in the plywood of the cart. The car was still carrying salt, iron and other items, which made the Tang army find nothing. As for the move, Guo Ziyi would definitely not dare to do so.

Guo Ziyi is a person who is known for his sleekness and versatility, otherwise he would not have become the only general who has a good end after the Anshi Rebellion.

Similarly, using Kutba's caravan, the Sailing Ye Army also brought a large number of personnel into the territory of the Tang Dynasty. I will talk about it later.

From the surface, all of this is completely flawless and makes you uncoverable. Moreover, the Xicao Kingdom of Kutba, as the only country in Hezhong region that believes in Zoroastrianism, is quite different from other places, and is quite popular with the Holy Emperor.

There were also two other people who followed Bai Xiaode this time, one was Nan Jiyun, the commander of Yuyuling Camp, who was later changed to Jinshan Camp, and the other was Gao Tinghui, the commander of Bogra Camp, and the former Duke of Yuhou of Guizhou.

Sun Xiurong's arrangement is obviously meaningful.

Bai Xiaode's Ruiye Camp is located at the easternmost point of the Ruiye Army (Hanhai County). It is most convenient to move to Xi's army under the cover of the caravan. Gao Tinghui is familiar with the terrain of Guizhou. As for Nan Jiyun, it is because of another person.

Lei Wanchun, who had run away with him at the Shanbei Quechang before!

With the emergence of the Shattered Ye Army, the life trajectory of Lei Wanchun and Nan Jiyun completely changed. Needless to mention Nan Jiyun, Lei Wanchun, who was a native of Zhuozhou, later joined An Lushan's army. Because of his bravery and good combat, he was appointed by An Lushan as the governor of Tanzhou and the envoy of the mighty army by An Lushan many years later!

Based on Lei Wanchun's performance in Juyang in history, Sun Xiurong believed that he would not be willing to rebel with An Lushan like this.

Of course, in Youzhou City, Sun Xiurong has a backup plan, so let’s talk about it later.

Bai Xiaode brought five hundred cavalry and three hundred large carts out of the north gate of Chicheng, and one day he came to the prairie!

Bai Xiaode and his subordinates were naturally dressed as the cavalry of the Xi tribe, and they did not receive much covetous eyes along the way. In recent years, Nasri went north to Yuyuling to collect supplies from the ministry.

The Yuling Grassland in spring is high and the earth is far away. The earth is lush and lush. Cattle, sheep, horses and flowers are dotted. It is the best season of the year. After most of the lunar tribe moved westward, the Loushi master, one of the three lunar tribes, was said to be Loushi Salai, a descendant of Liu Fu, the former king of Zhongshan, Han Dynasty. However, the Han Dynasty named Liu Xiaozhong still stationed in her husband.

At present, it is his Lou Shi tribe that occupies Yu Yuling.

When he learned that Nasri's caravan was coming again, Lou Shisa Lai was a little nervous. The news of the Anshi Rebellion had reached here, and most of the surrounding areas were ready to move. It would be impossible to divide the treasury while taking advantage of the civil strife of the Tang Dynasty. Moreover, the great governor of the treasury who had been very close to the treasury, Pugu Huaien, also transferred the 5,000 elite troops from the tribe!

On the high platform next to Yuyuling River, the mixed wood and stone buildings from ten years ago still exist. The three lines of defense arranged by Sun Xiurong from top to bottom are still intact.

On the platform, the only two-entry courtyard built with bricks and tiles that Sun Xiurong once lived in is still there. I have heard of Sun Xiurong and his famous name in recent years that Lou Shi Salai had created in Lou Shi Salai in recent years. Although he moved to the platform, he still did not dare to live in this courtyard.

Bai Xiaode, who had not shown up after Nasri, couldn't help but nod when he saw it.

After ten years of experience, the appearance of a Hu man like Bai Xiaode naturally changed drastically. Lou Shisa Lai did not notice him at first, but when he saw him nodding frequently, he looked at him again.

After looking at it, he finally thought of who this person was!

Bai Xiaode, who used to be stationed near Yuyuling!

"General Bai!"

Lou Shi Salai was a little excited.

In fact, in his heart, he was both hopeful and nervous about Sun Xiurong and his subordinates. This was because, after Sun Xiurong left the west, Pugu Huaien became the new commander-in-chief. Unlike Sun Xiurong, he was a person who only followed the orders of the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty also trusted him very much and sent a lot of armor and weapons to his troops.

Therefore, although Pugu Huaien was known as the "Grandmaster of the Cun tribe", he actually paid little attention to internal affairs of the tribe, and most of them were left to the jurisdiction of the former tribe chiefs. After An Lushan incorporated the Nomad tribe, which was nomadic near Heicheng (the main source of his elite troops), his five thousand troops were actually stationed near Ulanqab for most of the time.

Therefore, compared with Sun Xiurong, the various departments under Pugu Huaien's jurisdiction were much more relaxed and happy.

However, it is precisely because there is less regulation, which also means that there is less responsibility to the tribes. If the tribe is annexed by the Uighurs, the Baye Ancients, and the Khitans, Pugu Huai'en would probably not be too sad.

"Sweat"

Bai Xiaode helped him up with a smile.

Seeing that he was still looking around, he smiled and said, "The Grand Governor is not here, and he hasn't come."

Lou Shisa Lai asked, "Then..."

Bai Xiaode nodded, "The Grand Governor had long had a premonition that something would happen in Youzhou and Hedong. In order to avoid the follow-up chaos of the troops, he sent him here. The number of people was not large, and there was only one Thunder Leaf Camp."

Lou Shisa Lai was very excited at this time. He knew the power of the camp leader of the Sai Ye Army, not to mention that Bai Xiaode was one of the top generals under Sun Xiurong. His reputation was still there at this time. A camp leader and Bai Xiaode were enough to shock the tribes.

Bai Xiaode and Lou Shisalai exchanged a few words, and Lou Shisalai went to prepare food in a hurry. Bai Xiaode took Nan Jiyun to the house where Sun Xiurong had lived before.

"Crunch"

After opening the door of his previous study, I saw the tables and chairs inside, and the couch was still clean. Obviously, Lou Shi Salai often arranged for people to sweep and wipe them, and no one had ever come in to live there.

At this time, there were only two of them in the room. Nan Jiyun looked at Bai Xiaode. After looking at each other, they moved the square table in the middle of the house in anger. Then Bai Xiaode squatted down and knocked on the floor a few times, and finally took out a knife.

About a moment later, a big hole one meter square suddenly appeared in the middle of the house!

......

At dinner time, when Lou Shisa Lai was stunned when he saw supplies filled with weapons, artillery and shells in the entire courtyard.

Bai Xiaode smiled and said, "The Grand Governor had long considered the day of his return. Moreover, when he was here, although there were three lines of defense, it was not reliable. In the middle of the Yuyuling platform, there was a road directly under the platform. Even if an enemy surrounded Yuyuling, the Grand Governor could evacuate calmly!"

.....

Bai Xiaode left after lingering in Yuyuling for three days, and took away a large amount of food, artillery shells. Sun Xiurong naturally did not store gunpowder there. The thing would be damp and condensed into pieces for more than half a year. It needs to be crushed and dried. It has been a long time since ten years, but artillery can be used. As long as it is grease and coated with oil cloth, it can still last for a long time in a drought place like Yuyuling.

Of course, Sun Xiurong's artillery was still a short-barrel gun weighing 300 kilograms. Because the newly released artillery was too heavy and the ammunition needed to be carried, it occupied a lot of space for each transport, and there was a huge risk of exposure, so it was naturally impossible to carry it.

Before leaving, Bai Xiaode said to Lou Shisalai: "If I guess well, the army of the Grand Commander is on the way."

Lou Shisalai nodded, and he had already made up his mind.
Chapter completed!
