Pi Luoge was a little afraid of the Tang Dynasty in his heart, after all, the territory of the Tang Empire stretched for thousands of miles, the country was rich and the people were strong, but the Nanzhao he ruled was a very small country, and the national strength was relatively weak.

But after some careful consideration, Pi Luoge felt that the Tang Dynasty's pacification of the rebellion was nothing more than a few situations, and these situations were all under his control.

The first situation is to hand over the task of counterinsurgency to Nanzhao, and completely rely on Nanzhao's soldiers and horses to quell the rebellion in the planing land, which is also the situation that Pi Luoge wants to see the most, if this situation really occurs, he is sure enough to quell the rebellion in the planing land, and finally completely occupy the planing land, and then, with an extremely respectful attitude, he requested that the planing land be included in the jurisdiction of Nanzhao, so that the Tang Dynasty court will suffer a dumb loss.

In the second case, tens of thousands of Tang troops were sent into the land to encircle and suppress the rebels, in this case, Pi Luoge believed that the Tang army would inevitably suffer defeat, not because he despised the Tang army's combat power, but because the environment in the land was too bad, the Tang army came to quell the rebellion with the same strength, and it was impossible to take advantage of it, and once the Tang army was defeated in the plan, he could go to the war again, and in this way, the possibility of the Tang court's consent was greatly increased, so as to facilitate the realization of his plan.

The third situation is to send 100,000 superior troops to comprehensively clear out the rebellion in the planing area, such a large-scale force will indeed cause a great deterrent to the rebels in the planing land, but Pi Luoge feels that with the current situation of the Tang Empire, it is impossible to transfer 100,000 elite men and horses to use troops against the planing land, so that the soldiers and horses in other directions will be seriously insufficient, which will destroy the overall strategic pattern of the Tang Empire.

In other words, although he was still a little apprehensive in his heart, Pi Luo Ge was still optimistic on the whole, but he had always been cautious in doing things, so he did not dare to act rashly in advance, so as not to cause immeasurable losses to himself.

Pi Luo Ge told Duan Jianming about the three situations he predicted, Duan Jianming thought so, and secretly sighed that Pi Luo Ge was thoughtful, as if he saw the moment when the land was merged into Nanzhao.

But they would never have imagined that when they were thinking about the land day and night, Ang Lee, the 'yellow finch', had already set his eyes on him and was ready to reap the benefits.

Yizhou City Post House, Li Anzheng and several henchmen were discussing matters related to leaving for Luzhou early the next morning, yes, they had been in Yizhou City for three days, and the sick soldiers had recovered, and it was time to leave.

However, in addition to going to Luzhou, they also had to send Chengjie back to Nanzhao safely, and the road to Nanzhao and the road to Luzhou were not the same, Nanzhao was relatively farther, taking the road to the west, while Luzhou had to take the road to the east and marching to the southeast.

"Big brother, Yu Chengjie is escorted by more than 100 Nanzhao soldiers, why do we have to worry about this, let's go to our Luzhou, let Yu Chengjie go back by himself."

"Big brother, we have the heavy responsibility of quelling the rebellion in the land, we should go all out to go to the land, if we divide the troops to protect the second prince of Nanzhao, it will delay our own affairs, there are many soldiers and horses under the command of Zhang Qiujie, let him send hundreds of soldiers and horses to escort him, and send the second prince of Nanzhao back to the territory of Nanzhao."

"Yes! It's okay, we have our own things to do, and besides, we haven't encountered any assassins along the way, so don't think about guarding the second prince of Nanzhao anymore. ”

All the henchmen were opposed to guarding Yu Chengjie separately.

Li An nodded lightly: "Okay!" Since you are all opposed to dividing troops to protect Yu Chengjie, then let Marshal Zhang Qiujie send troops to escort him! We now come to discuss how to march on the way to Luzhou. ”

As he spoke, he spread out the map.

The road from Yizhou to Luzhou is not flat, many places are rugged paths, it is difficult for cars and horses to pass, and even in some dangerous road sections, it is necessary to rely on the soldiers to carry the materials on their shoulders, so this road must not be fast, it is necessary to carefully plan the daily itinerary, walking too little will delay time, but going too fast will also cause serious fatigue of the soldiers, and even, the daily camp must be selected in advance, so as not to be in the dangerous place where it is difficult to camp at sunset.

"Whoosh......"

Just when Ang Lee and his henchmen were about to arrange a specific itinerary, a sharp arrow was shot outside the window.

"There are assassins, there are assassins."

The soldiers of the Longwu Army, who were stationed outside the door, found out about the situation and immediately shouted loudly and called for their companions.

"Hurry up, catch the assassins, you protection generals."

Soon, dozens of soldiers of the Dragon Warriors surrounded the rooms of the inn, and another group of men and horses went to pursue the Assassins.

"Assassin, why are there assassins again?"

Yu Chengjie looked at his henchman with a panicked face, eager to get under the bed immediately.

"Second prince, don't panic, this is the post house of the Tang Dynasty, General Li and hundreds of soldiers under his command are in the post house, and the assassins can't hurt us."

When Yu Chengjie heard this, he suddenly felt a lot more relieved.

"Big brother, there's a note on the arrow."

Li Kunxiong pulled out the arrow and handed the note to Ang Lee.

Li An unfolded the note, frowning slightly: "Spring Boudoir Building, isn't this the Qinglou that was attacked last time on Chengjie?" ”

"That's right, this is indeed the place where the second prince of Nanzhao was attacked last time."

Zhang Guangsheng said seriously.

"What does this mean, is it for me to go and meet?"

Li Anke didn't want to go to a place like the Qinglou, although he liked beautiful girls, he was afraid of getting sick.

"It's not clear about this matter, so it's better not to go."

"Big brother, could this be an assassin's conspiracy?"

"It's okay, I think I can go, but I have to bring more people, and if it's a conspiracy, it's better to respond immediately."

Li An smiled lightly: "Okay, Shouyu, you can go with me!" Kunxiong, Feiyu, you lead thirty soldiers to wander around, Guangsheng, Erniu, you stay in the post house, you must ensure the safety of Yu Chengjie. ”’

"Understood."

Li An made a little preparation and took Li Fei Shouyu to the Spring Boudoir Tower.

"It's fine, there's nothing unusual here, it should be safe."

Li Fei Shouyu stood at the door of the Spring Boudoir Building, staring left and right, and did not find any suspicious person.

Li An's afterglow was also scanning the surroundings to determine whether there was danger around, and after seeing Kunxiong, Feiyu and others not far away, he was relieved.

"It's General Lee! Luo Langjun has been waiting upstairs for a long time. ”

A thug-like man walked over with a smile on his face.

"Luo Langjun?"

Li An pondered for a moment and said, "Lead the way ahead." ”

"General Lee, please."

Although he hadn't seen Luo Langjun yet, Li An vaguely remembered that when he returned from Dongnu Kingdom, he let go of an assassin surnamed Luo, could it be that this Luo Langjun was the assassin.

"Luo Langjun is inside, little farewell."

"Crunch ......"

As soon as the thug left, the door of the room opened from the inside, and a familiar figure met Ang Lee's eyes.

Although this person's dress has changed too much, Li An recognized that he was the Luo Dahu he had let go, and on the side of the room, there was another person standing, Luo Dahu's brother Luo Xiaohu.

"General Li, please come inside."

Luo Dahu's respectful invitation.

Li An nodded and entered the room with Li Fei Shouyu.

"Luo Dahu thanked General Li for not killing him in the first place, and specially prepared thin wine to express his gratitude."

Li An smiled lightly: "Thank you you is not necessary, just say it!" What the hell are you looking for? ”

Obviously, Luo Dahu invited Ang Lee so hard, it was impossible just to thank Ang Lee for his grace not to kill, it must have another purpose.

Luo Dahu said with a straight face: "Since General Li doesn't like to be polite, then Luo Dahu won't beat around the bush, the will of the Tang Dynasty has been transmitted to Yizhou, we know that General Li is going to the land to quell the rebellion this time, but does General Li know that there is another force that has long been eyeing the land." ”

"Another force? Do you mean Nanzhao? ”

Li An asked lightly.

Luo Dahu's eyes were excited, and he nodded: "That's right, it's Nanzhao, the thief Pi Luoge, who has already secretly dispatched a large number of troops to the vicinity of the planing land, and the soldiers and horses in the west, south and north have been transferred one after another, with a total of no less than 20,000 horses. ”

"There are so many? My Datang also has eyeliner in Nanzhao, why haven't I ever found out about this situation? ”

Li An was slightly surprised, it seemed that Pi Luo Ge had already started to act.

"Pi Luo Ge is scattered and transferred troops in batches, and they are all night marches, which is not easy for ordinary people to find, and most of the various armies of Pi Luo Ge have our people, so only we know the inside story."

Luo Dahu said.

Li An nodded: "So that's the case, then why are you telling me this?" We're not all the way. ”

"The villain is to thank General Li for his grace of not killing, greet him in advance, and let General Li be prepared to guard against Pi Luo Ge, so as not to fall into the hands of Pi Luo Ge, we hate Pi Luo Ge, if he gets the land again, the strength will become stronger, and our recovery will be even more hopeless."

Luo Dahu is colorful.

Li An smiled faintly: "If the king of Yunnan uses troops against the land, you should be very happy!" In this way, the country of Nanzhao is empty, and it will be more convenient for you to move. ”

"General Li is really smart, that's right, we really want Pi Luoge to use troops against the land, but we don't want him to win, if he wins, we will have no hope of recovering the country, only if he fails in the land, we may have a chance."

Luo Dahu said investigatively.

"Nanzhao is a vassal state of my Tang Dynasty, and the transfer of troops from the king of Yunnan to the land is also to help the Tang Dynasty quell the rebellion, if you tell me this, you are not afraid that I will tie you up and hand you over to the king of Yunnan."

Li An said with a staring eye.

Luo Dahu's expression was a little surprised, paused, shook his head and said: "No, General Li will definitely not do this, from General Li letting go of us five loyal ministers, we know that General Li is sympathetic to us, and, if the villain expects it to be good, General Li is very distrustful of Nanzhao, and he doesn't want Nanzhao to sit big." ”

"Haha! Luo Dahu, you are quite smart, but smart people generally don't live long. ”

"As long as he can avenge the dead edict, Luo Dahu does not seek a long life."

Li An thought for a moment and asked, "Luo Dahu, what do you think is revenge?" ”

"Killing Pi Luoge, placing his head in front of the grave of our dead edict, and restoring the land of Deng Zhe Zhao is revenge."

Luo Dahu said without thinking.

Li An shook his head lightly, waved his hand and said, "If you think so, you may not be able to take revenge for the rest of your life, which is really too difficult for you stragglers." ”

Luo Dahu frowned: "Then with General Li's meaning, how can we take revenge." ”

Li An smiled lightly: "There are many ways to take revenge, the most direct is to kill the enemy, to put it mildly, is to cut off his financial route, make him poor, life is worse than death, and there is also a secret stumbling, making it difficult for him to carry out his ambitions, and thus ending up depressed." ”

"But these three, only by directly killing Pi Luo Ge can we solve the hatred in our hearts."

Li An waved his hand and said: "You only have some stragglers, you want to kill the king of Yunnan, you are too self-conscious, cut off the financial road of Nanzhao, I am afraid that it is impossible, the only thing you can do is to drag the king of Yunnan back, so that his desire to expand the territory is difficult to realize, in this way, the king of Yunnan may die of depression, which is much longer than a knife." ”

"Let Piloco die of depression, it's more painful than killing him, this is the best revenge, okay, I see."

Luo Dahu nodded as if he didn't understand.

Li An smiled faintly and said softly: "Ben will be about to go to Luzhou, if there is any abnormal action on the part of Nanzhao, I hope that Brother Luo will inform me in time, although Ben will not be able to help Brother Luo restore Deng Zhizhao, but he will definitely stop the king of Yunnan and will not let him get involved in the land." ”

"Okay, the loyal ministers of the Five Edicts are willing to cooperate with General Li."

Luo Dahu looked quite excited.

"Brother Luo, this will be a Tang courtier, the matter between you and me, it's better not to let more people know, otherwise, it will not be good for us."

Ang Lee opened his mouth to warn.

"General Li rest assured, only the four of us know about this matter, and the rest of us don't know about it, and the villain will never talk nonsense."

Luo Dahu patted his chest and promised.

Li An sniffed the dishes on the table and smiled faintly: "Saying that, Ben Jiang is really a little hungry, let's eat first, and then talk after eating." ”

"General Li, please, haha!"

Subsequently, during the meal, the two sides also talked about some things, mainly Li An asked about some things about Nanzhao, while Luo Dahu was more inclined to talk about how insidious Pi Luo Pavilion was, and how to burn down Songming Tower and plot to kill the Lord of the Five Edicts.

"Okay, do you think this Luo Dahu can come in handy?"

After the Luo Dahu brothers left, Li Fei Shouyu looked at their backs and said softly.

"Luo Dahu is a native of Nanzhao, and he is a remnant of the Five Zhaos, he knows Nanzhao better than us, of course he can come in handy."

"But after all, he is the remnant of the Five Edicts, and we are the courtiers of the Tang Dynasty, once we can't meet his requirements, will he bite us."

Li An smiled disdainfully: "Luo Dahu is just a small person, even if he says that I, Li An, want to rebel, will Your Majesty believe it?" Will the officials of the Tang Dynasty believe the words of a remnant of the five edicts? If he dares to play tricks, it will be as easy for us to kill him as it is for an ant. (To be continued.) )
