Yi Song, if you read the geographical chronicles, you should know that now Xifan covets me Tang Jingzhao, and you can only take two passages. ”

"It is true that the military towns of Shuofang, such as Kouyin, Ling, and Yan, in Xifan cannot threaten Gyeonggi at all; And Kou Jiannan is just a disease of ringworm and scabies. Now the trouble of the henchmen lies in the fact that the west has cut off the west of the Longxi River, and can pass through the land of Qinzhou, from the plateau to the Guanzhong, and go straight to the gateway of Beijing. ”

Wei Gao nodded, and then pointed to the highland on the south bank of Jingshui, where Changwu City lived, on horseback, and said loudly: "The road from Xifan is generally not out of the three mountains and two valleys, and the two mountains are Longshan, Wangshan, and Meridian Ridge; The second valley is the Huangshui River Valley between Longshan and Huangshan, which runs north-south; There is also a Jingshui River valley between the Huangshan and He Ziwu Mountains, which runs from east to west; The three mountains and two valleys are cross-shaped, and Qianyang and Changwu happen to be in the two gateway keys of this vertical and horizontal cross, and it is the place where the thieves and thieves in Xifu must pass through, and now Yuanzhou and Longzhou have been lost, and the situation of the original 'Longshan is like a stone, and the situation of Huarong is no longer there, so the top priority is to consolidate Jingzhou, Changwu, Fengxiang three places, and block Xifan outside Changwu Yuan and Huangshan with a strong city, and then send out elite soldiers to copy the enemy's back road, which is a strategy to win a hundred battles. ”

Then he strengthened the army with the taxes and goods of Guanzhong and Jiannan, slowly recovered Qianyang and Yuanzhou, and then Tulongshan and the Western Regions. With the momentum of half a moon, the West will be in and out, and for a long time, there will be civil strife in the West Tibet, and that time is the time for revenge. Gao Yue then talked about the long-term strategic planning, won Wei Gao's praise, although the two young people are only the Confucian officials of the shogunate, the other is still plain and white, but looking at the magnificent thousands of ravines and strange peaks and mountains in the west, they have already made a grand plan in their hearts.

Under the city of Changwu, the sound of Shuofang army soldiers practicing shook the heavens and the earth, and on both sides of the road into the city, there were full of standing cages: the soldiers and generals who violated military discipline were all flailed in it, and now in the early summer, the sun is fierce, and there is no drinking water, and the crying is endless, and the Yun Shao and Yu Xiao in the ox cart are frightened, and they can't bear to look at it.

Shuo Fang's elite soldiers are known all over the world, but before Guo Ziyi served as a festival envoy, under the control of leniency, so the military discipline was lacking, and now Guo Ziyi accepted the emperor's suggestion and handed over the military discipline to Li Huaiguang, the Marquis of Duyu, who was responsible for Li Huaiguang, who enforced the law very harshly, so it was not unusual for this scene to appear under Changwu City.

In the judge's hall in the city, Gao Ying was overjoyed when he heard that Gao Yue was visiting, and hurriedly came out to greet Gao Yue and his wife, and when he saw Wei Gao and his wife, he asked who this Lang Jun was.

Gao Yue presented a letter recommending Wei Gao, Gao Ying looked at it, and said that it was Zhang Jingnan's son-in-law, but then his face was embarrassed, and he whispered to Gao Yue and Wei Gao: "It's not that Wei Lang is talentless, but now Shuofang is in danger, and Wei Lang can't stand under the dangerous wall...... and said that Li Huaiguang, the envoy of Changwu City and the Marquis of Shuofang, was not in the city, but went to Lingzhou to welcome Guo Fenyang.

Hearing this, Gao Yue quickly remembered what Guo Ziyi said to him when he refused Wu Xingxing's marriage before-Li Huaiguang is an ambitious person, and he really can't get too close to him.

"I wrote a letter to Fengxiang Mansion, asking Zhu Suining (Zhu Zhu) to conquer Wei Lang." Gao Ying said that there was still a chance to remedy it (Gao Yue was dumbfounded, but it was not good to say anything).

Wei Gao was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked Gao Ying. And Gao Ying also asked Wei Gao and his wife to live in Changwu City for the time being, he wanted to be hospitable, and when there was definite news from Fengxiang Mansion, Wei Gao would not be too late to go on the road.

Then Gao Yue and his wife said goodbye to Gao Ying and Wei Gao, Wei Gao was very grateful, sent through Changwu City, and sent through the shallow water plain, and sent to the "Xue Jucheng" in Jingzhou before stopping, Yun Shao and Yu Xiao are also reluctant to give up, when parting Yun Shao sent himself a few pieces of jewelry to Yu Xiao, "If Sister and Wei Langjun go to Fengxiang, it is not as good as Jing and Sui, where the people are rich and the rice cloth is expensive, these jewelry should be given to Sister Run's money." ”

"Ah Ni went to Jingzhou with Gao Sanlang, and he should also take care of his body and give birth to a man and a woman as soon as possible." Yun Shao's ear chakra blushed again.

From Xue Jucheng to the west for more than ten miles, we came to the destination of this trip, Jingzhou Zhizhi and Ding County.

Jingzhou, that is, Anding County in ancient times, is an important town in and out of Jingzhao and the northwest, Zhuge Liang's first northern expedition, Xialongyounan'an, Tianshui, Anding three counties, close to Chang'an, Wei State was terrified; After Yao Chang occupied this place, after Liu Yu's northern expedition to recover Chang'an City, Helian Bobo occupied Anding County, collected all the counties in Lingbei, and then took advantage of Liu Yudong's return, attacked Chang'an in the south, and set off from Anding, such as a high-rise building. Until the successive wars between the Song Dynasty and the Western Xia, every time the Western Xia army went out of Hengshan, Jingzhou was "like its right arm".

Duan Xiushi, who arrived in the state first, immediately held a banquet in the government of Anding City to receive Gao Yue, a Confucian official who came from afar.

Gao Yue first placed his wife and slave maid in the Alanta Temple outside the city, and then went to the banquet.

"Please enter from the east chamber!" In front of the palace, several soldiers came forward to greet him respectfully, and then guided Gao Yue to enter from the east wing corridor of the palace, because it was an exclusive way for guests.

Gao Yue walked through the corridor and entered it, according to the agreement with Duan Xiushi in advance, he did not bow to each other, but exchanged a level salute, and then Duan Xiushi warmly beckoned Gao Yue to take a seat.

Then, the generals of Jingyuan rushed in from the West Chamber, and when they saw Duan Xiushi, they all rushed forward to bow down, and Duan Xiushi was named, and then dared to turn around and take their seats.

"It seems that this Duan Xiu really has the talent to control his subordinates, and people say that the entire town under the world, Shuofang and Jingyuan are the most arrogant, but they don't dare to make the slightest mistake in front of this one."

Duan Xiushi is a thrifty person, Gao Yue saw that the food table was full of home-cooked dishes, which was very far from the atmosphere of not getting tired of eating fine and fine in Chang'an City, and the most expensive was white-cut mutton. The whole banquet was also silent and silent, like a pre-military meeting.

Finally, Duan Xiushi took the master's seat, and first introduced to the generals on the west side that this young man was a Confucian official hired by our Fangzhen Xinli, and after that, if Confucius official made any decision to send him, he could not disobey it.

The generals clasped their fists together and shouted, "I've seen Gao Kongmu." ”

Duan Xiushi also introduced this group of generals in Jingyuan Town to Gao Yue - Liu Wenxi, the general of the left wing, Jiao Bochen, the general of the right wing, Yao Lingyan, the soldier and horse envoy of the Yaqian, Zhang Yufei, the sword and axe general, and the Ya Ma Di, etc.

Gao Yue hurriedly returned the salute, although he didn't dare to say anything in front of Duan Xiushi, he obviously read his doubts and distrust in the eyes of this group of bearded brothers.

After all, this group of people were all killed from the sea of corpses and blood, how could they be happy and convinced of themselves just after they met? Among them, Zhang Yufei looked at Gao Yue's appearance, and suddenly felt familiar, "It seems that during the funeral in the west of Zhima Town, I saw this ...... in the palace of Fufeng County."

Next, Duan Xiushi asked Gao Yue directly, this was not the time when he was polite in the thatched cottage of Huaizhenfang in Chang'an City: "Dare to ask Gao Zhengzi, what do you think about my town's autumn defense?" ”

In an instant, the eyes of all the generals were cast on Gao Yue's body.
