Chapter four hundred and fifty-one people from all walks of life

Zhang Xuansu heard Li Chongjiu's question and immediately said, "This is a general strategy for military and national affairs. The poor ministers and officials are humble and do not dare to speak nonsense."

Li Chongjiu smiled and signaled to sit down at Zhang Xuansu. Then he said, "I heard that when Zhang Sheren was under Dou Jiande's command, he often had strategies. He saw that others could not see him. He was known as Zhang Liang of Dou Jiande, so why did he hesitate when he came to Gu? Gu is not a jealous wise man, nor is he not to be incompatible with his ministers. As long as he speaks properly, Gu is willing to listen carefully."

Zhang Xuansu bowed and said, "It's shameful to say that if you really have complete plans, King Xia would not have been defeated by Yishui. He was favored by King Zhao's favor for not killing him, and he would use his subordinates. The ministers could only devote all their efforts to repay King Zhao's favor."

Li Chongjiu said, "Then just say it."

Zhang Xuansu frowned and looked at her eyebrows, as if she was considering her words, and then said: "I think that if you treat the country, if you treat the disease, Yan Yeli's rebellion is now. Although it has not occurred, it is more severe. It is like the disease is on the skin, and it will become more severe. Since ancient times, any good doctor has not cured the disease before it is cured, and the chaos has not been cured. The same is true for planning the country. When the chaos occurs and the chaos has been formed, it will be difficult to rectify it."

Li Chongjiu said, "This is a deep word that touches my heart."

Zhang Xuansu bowed and said, "Therefore, although the civil strife of Yan Yeliu is the beginning, if it is not handled properly, it will lead to chaos. In the whole court, only the king and the great vassal saw this, so I can understand why the king wanted to command the army in person, but he was not worried about pretending to be others."

Li Chongjiu asked with a smile, "Isn't there another Zhang Sheren in the court now? How can you calm down according to your opinion?"

Zhang Xuansu said, "The king has been too proud. I am just aware of it. I have three strategies..."

"Come on fast."

After Zhang Xuansu made a comment to Li Chongjiu, Li Chongjiu was very satisfied and said, "With Zhang Aiqing here, why worry about the unfairness of the north? I decided to just go to the pursuit of the enemy in person."

Zhang Xuansu said happily: "The King..."

Li Chongjiu stopped his hand and said, "But Zhang Aiqing needs to do it for him. I decided to order you as the military supervisor and assist General Xue in the north."

Zhang Xuansu was stunned when he heard this, thinking why, could he be better than Xue Wanche's brother, Xue Wanshu, the third-rank minister of the Secretariat, and was more competent in the military supervisor.

Zhang Xuansu saw Li Chongjiu smiling slightly, and suddenly realized, "It's good, I've misunderstood. How could he lead the general and the civil servant of the military supervisor be brothers? He thought it was a clever plan, but it seems that King Zhao had thought of this for a long time.

Zhang Xuansu looked at Li Chongjiu and felt more and more unfathomable. Compared with Dou Jiande, Li Chongjiu is a wise ruler. It is difficult to serve under a wise ruler. He cannot be perfunctory. If he does not have real skills and does not put in his energy to do things, he will not be able to escape Li Chongjiu's eyes.

However, only those with talents like Li Chongjiu can hope to unify the world. With his own talent, if he does not make a fortune under Li Chongjiu's command in the future, it will not be difficult to keep his name in history.

Seeing Zhang Xuansu not answering, Li Chongjiu smiled and said, "I know you are worried that you are not in a position, but General Xue has always been strong and proud. If I send important officials to supervise the army, he will feel that he is under elbows and cannot perform. Instead of doing this, I might as well let him let go and act on his own. Zhang Aiqing only needs to assist from others and give a little point. With your talent, you will understand the intention of the orphan."

Zhang Xuansu was immediately impressed, and at the same time he understood that Li Chongjiu had no choice but to be the military supervisor. He was just the intention of personally escorting Zhang Xuansu. It was obviously a valuation of Zhang Xuansu.

Zhang Xuansu stood up and said, "If you are appreciated by the king, you will be able to fulfill your mission."

Zhang Xuansu spoke only when he spoke. The inside officials from the door came to report that Wei Zheng was coming to see Li Chongjiu in person.

Li Chongjiu couldn't help but smile and said to Zhang Xuansu: "Look, he is another lobbyist."

The king and his subject couldn't help but smile at each other.

When Wei Zheng and Zhang Xuansu persuaded Li Chongjiu to cancel the personal expedition, the officials in Youzhou were very happy and applauded.

The next day, Li Chongjiu mobilized 15,000 troops from Zhuo County, Anle County and Shanggu County from three places, including 5,000 troops in total, totaling 20,000 troops. Xue Wanche was the chief marching officer in the northern border, Zhang Xuansu was the supervisor, Wugunai and Tanzong were the generals, Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin were the lieutenants, and went out of the Xiguan in Anle County to reinforce Wang Junkuo, the guardian of the Ruoshui Prefecture.

At the same time, Guo Xiaoke, the governor of Liaoxi County, was ordered to lead the army to send troops to reinforce.

The county and county in western Liaoning are under the control of Liucheng.

To the north of Liucheng is the old capital of Yan Longcheng.

When Dayan established its capital in Longcheng, a pagoda was built here. It was the Buddhist map of Siyan built by Empress Feng of the Northern Wei Dynasty for his grandfather, Northern Yan King Feng Hong, praying for his longevity and blessings and promoting Buddhism. It was later destroyed by a fire. In the second year of Renshou in the Great Sui Dynasty, the court rebuilt this pagoda. The pagoda was a seventeen-level floating map, which was housed in it, and the Buddha's relics were placed, and the Buddhist temple was set up here. Therefore, believers came from all sides and worshiped under the pagoda day and night.

The capital of the Murong clan was founded in Longcheng. Emperors of all dynasties believed in Buddhism. Therefore, Yan Land has always been a place where Buddhism flourished. Although there have been wars and chaos, Emperor Wen of Sui worshipped the Buddha and cultivated the Fanzhuang Temple here and welcomed the Buddhist relics, Yingzhou once again became the most prosperous place for Buddhism in Liaodong.

By the time Li Chongjiu occupied Liucheng, it had been three years since then, and the Liaoxi County was always stable. Li Chongjiu never stopped Buddhist missionary.

In the chaotic times, Buddhism has the effect of appeaseing people's hearts. The leaders of various tribes, tribes, and even tribes in Liaoxi County began to believe in Buddhism. Because of the interactions between Han monks, they gradually became sinicized. Li Chongjiu heard Yang Linfu, the county magistrate of Liaoxi County, reported that he did not expect that there would be such help. He happily allocated a portion of the money from the money that was not rich and built two more pagodas in Yingzhou.

After hearing this, believers of all ethnic groups in Yingzhou couldn't help but come to Liucheng to worship, so the trend of Buddha development in Liucheng became even more prosperous.

Therefore, after Guo Xiaoke came to Liuzhou to take office, he felt like he was ruling and governing. The people in Dingling, western Liaoning, were gentle and obedient. Under the sudden constraints of the Mohe people in western Liaoning, the relationship between the Mohe people and the Han people was very harmonious. There was no war on the border of Goguryeo, so Guo Xiaoke, who had to show his strength, had nothing to do for the time being, and could only train three thousand township soldiers in the three counties in the county.

On this day, it was spring and flowers blooming. The Fanzhuang Temple in the north of the city was filled with sounds of the Buddhist sounds, and believers gathered around. The people of Liucheng also began to make a busy day's livelihood.

Guo Xiaoke was wearing military uniform and was about to cross the bow and horse with more than a dozen personal soldiers to go out to hunt from the county magistrate's mansion.

Just now, a personal soldier rushed over and said, "I have reported to you, the news of Youjing's illness is written by King Zhao."

Guo Xiaoke was stunned when he heard this and said to his left and right: "I almost thought that the person surnamed Li had pulled me among the mountains in western Liaoning and was here to retire."

When Guo Xiaoke heard the disrespectful name of Li Chongjiu, he pretended not to hear it. Guo Xiaoke immediately took the letter from his personal soldiers and looked at it for a while, and said happily: "This time it's interesting. The guys pack up and we won't go out."

"Why is this?" The subordinates were disappointed when they heard that they could not hunt.

Guo Xiaoke said, "What are you asking, let me dive immediately, Cui Xu came to the county magistrate's office to see me."

In the county magistrate's mansion, Cui Xu and the other two sat down at Guo Xiaoke's head.

Cui Xu looked at the order of the army dispatching for a while and asked Guo Xiaoke: "Khan said he wanted to dispatch troops from Liaoxi County to reinforce the northern border, but why did he dispatch many troops? The order did not say it?"

Guo Xiaoke said, "It's very simple. This is the king who wants us to make our own decisions. Goguryeo is watching the tiger on the banks of the Liaoshui River. If we dispatch too many troops, the Goguryeo people may take advantage of the situation."

Suddenly he said: "Now on the banks of the Liaoshui River, the Goguryeo people spent a lot of manpower to build the Great Wall of Thousand Miles. Once the Goguryeo people have a firm foothold in the Liaoshui River, they may invade the south."

Guo Xiaoke said, "Since the Goguryeo people built the Great Wall in the Liao River, they knew that the enemy had no intention of going south at the moment. Since the king issued an order, we should not neglect it."

Cui Xu suddenly cried and said, "That's right."

Guo Xiaoke said, "Since that's the case, the Marine troops sent 3,000 troops, Ding Ling's troops sent 2,000 troops, and the Han troops sent 2,000 troops?"

Both of them nodded and said, "That's right."

Besides, Wang Junguo led a large army from Huaihuang and Yuyi towns to send troops, and the army traveled day and night. After six days of travel, he finally arrived at the banks of the Qinshui River in Wuhou.

It is spring, winter snow melts, and rivers are flowing gurgling on the grassland. There are countless unknown lakes on the grassland, and lakes and rivers flow into the Wuhou Qin Water from all directions. The Wuhou Qin Water also rises, blocking Wang Jungu's army.

Wang Junkuo couldn't help frowning when he saw the flood full of water.

Liu Yi rode his horse to Wang Jungu and said, "I have reported to the Great Protector that the Wuhou Qin River goes east, merges with the Huangshui, and runs to the Liaoshui and enters the sea. Once our army crosses the river, between the Wuhou Qin River and the Huangshui, there are Yan Yeli tribes, and there are Khitans, Xi people, Turks, and Wu people."

Wang Junguo raised his horse whip and said, "The King of Zhao set up the Ruoshuizhou Protectorate in the north of the border, but the Ruoshuizhou Protectorate in Huaihuang and Yuyi Towns. This place goes deep into the grassland. Even if it is fast horse racing, it takes four days for our army to march from Yuyi Town. Not to mention that the reinforcements from the kings in Youjing, Shanggu, Anle, and the counties in western Liaoning took more than ten days to arrive here, and even if it goes deep into this, the food and grass will be exhausted."

Liu Yi said: "That is true. Unless a major town like Huaihuang and Yuyi towns are set up by the Qin River in Wuhou, we can only confine this place and cannot truly control it."

Wang Junkuo and Liu Yi were both deeply aware of the difficulties. Because the situation was complicated and far away from the two towns of Yuyi and Huaihuang, the two towns of Zhao State were difficult to reach. Therefore, after Yan Yelei died, the people in the tribe, under the instigation of the Khitan, Turkic and other parties, had the intention of rebellion.
