Have you ever seen an old man fight?

In particular, three old men who are estimated to be more than two hundred years old can mix three dozen.

Zhang Gongjin should be grateful to the three old men who fought, if it weren't for the fact that these three had been making trouble since the morning, it is estimated that Liu Mu would have been floating on the sea.

On the docks, three old men have taken over Willow's boat, which is eating under the service of the servants of each family.

Liu Mu can't do anything about these three old men, they are too old.

Xie Yan of the Xie family, recognized as the first elder of the Xie family, is Liu Chongchong who is also called an uncle here, that is, Grandpa Liu Mu's grandfather.

The second is Cui Yuan of the Qing He Cui clan, a seemingly elegant old man, but he didn't expect to be full of firepower in a fight.

The last one is Yang Zimo of the Hongnong Yang family, as one of the three most virtuous and talented elders of the Yang family, he was already famous for his poetry, painting and books when he was middle-aged.

Yanagi didn't leave the dock because he was afraid that something would happen to the three of them.

Not only Liu Mu, but the old man of the family on the Hangzhou dock can come to Hangzhou, and the identity is qualified, and the five surnames and seven hopes are not bad, and the seven families are all here, and there is more than one.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Liu Mu entered a warm tent, and a group of old men were eating hot pot around the stove, chatting very happily.

Liu Mu came to Zheng Yuanxuan: "Old Zheng, what do you think of this?" ”

Zheng Yuanxuan pointed to Cui Hong, who was sitting next to him, which means that the Cui family can't take care of it, what do you want me to do.

Liu Mu was helpless to leave, Wang Jun was stunned and stretched out his hand to hold him: "Don't go, it's not that you can't be persuaded or discussed." But they are all angry, scolded, beaten, the breath in the chest is smoothed, whether it is persuasion or discussion, it is easy to do, if you don't want to drink with a few of our old men, then go back to rest, the three of them are fine, send someone to take care of it. ”

"Okay. Then I'll go back. ”

Liu Muxin said that if the three old men had any trouble on their own territory, they would not be able to explain themselves.

Before Liu Mu went back, Zhang Gongjin arrived.

Zhang Gongjin only saw that the area of the official ships on the Hangzhou wharf was heavily guarded, and ordinary ships asked to dock at the alternate wharf five miles away, or in the ordinary merchant ship area.

It was Zhang Gong who showed his identity as the prince of the country, so that the boat stopped at the dock, just blocking the willow wood.

"General Zhang." Liu Mu hurried up to meet him.

After the two sides saluted, Zhang Gongjin asked, "This is preparing for a long journey." ”

"I was going to leave early in the morning, but there was a little accident. Go to me first to take a rest, I guess I can't walk today, General Zhang is tired all the way, and I will arrange for someone to clean the general's dust. ”

After talking to Zhang Gongjin, Liu Mu gave Dugu Xiude and Dugu Shura a salute: "Two brothers, don't come unharmed, I heard that the two of them went north, but I didn't expect this to be in Hangzhou." ”

"We were deceived by Lao Cheng, and Lao Cheng deceived many people this time. Fighting Gaochang was originally the vanguard of General Wei Chi, but Lao Cheng pursued a Tuyuhun army, and in one breath he chased to Gaochang City less than 200 miles. What else can the marshal do, taking advantage of Gaochang's defenselessness, attack Gaochang first, and after occupying Gaochang, General Wei Chi and Lao Cheng will divide their troops and divide their troops into two cities each. ”

"And then, we won?"

"Winning is a natural sure win, but there are still some things that have changed. You can't say good, you can't say bad. Gaochang still has half of the soldiers and horses not gathered, scattered outside the city stationed, this will be those soldiers and horses surrender, or battle. We don't know. ”

Dugu Xiude scolded heavily after speaking: "It's all because of this old Cheng, according to the marshal's arrangement for our army to attack Tianshan City, as well as the two small cities of Gaoning and Weishen in the forty-six towns, there is nothing to do with us." ”

Zhang Gongjin said at this time: "I am to blame for this matter, I was seriously ill in the army, and I was bothered to send me back to Chang'an, which delayed this expedition." ”

"The safety of the general is more important."

"I'm dragging it down......

Liu Mu understood, and hurriedly persuaded: "Go to my place to rest for one night first, and it is estimated that the departure will be until tomorrow afternoon." ”

When he arrived at Liu Mu and sat down, a servant brought hot water to wash his face, and Liu Mu took Zhang Gongjin's handwritten letter from Li Shimin, and after reading the letter, Liu Mu asked: "General Zhang knows the content of the letter." ”

"Just bring the letter here, and you'll arrange everything."

Liu Mu motioned for the servants to retreat, and after the servants left, Liu Mu said: "The sage letter said that even if the city of Beisha is at war, it cannot be returned to Goguryeo, and after the Goguryeo envoys arrive in Chang'an, the Ministry of Rites will deal with them. Then, choose one of the two Dugu generals and order the governor of Dengzhou, secretly the governor of Beisha City, Juqishan City and Dengzhou. ”

When the three of them left Chang'an, the Goguryeo envoys had not yet arrived in Chang'an, so they did not know the outcome of the negotiations, let alone the negotiations were still underway.

Dugu Shura asked, "If one of us goes to Dengzhou, how will the other arrange?" ”

Liu Mu glanced at the letter again, and said word by word: "Officially start the preparation of the first naval division of the Tang Dynasty, plan to prepare one hundred and eight ships, and require all to use new 850 fast all-sail warships, each ship is fully equipped with 36 guns, and 4 are equipped for daily patrols." The current official name is, Governor of Huating. ”

"I'm seasick!" Dugu Xiude said first.

Dugu Xiude's seasickness is already enough on the road, and the fact that the seasick person is in charge of the navy is ridiculous.

"What about me?" Zhang Gongjin asked.

Liu Mu put the letter away: "The letter didn't say anything, it only said that the general was unfit for a cold place." Then I think that the general can be the first Grand Governor of the Land of the Kuril Islands. My Datang is qualified to be the chief administrator, and basically the titles are all national dukes. ”

The general manager of the Tang Dynasty was much more powerful than the Liangjiang governor in later generations, and he was in charge of everything such as military and political officials.

Moreover, the power of the military attache in the Tang Dynasty is sometimes higher than that of the civilian official.

Qin Qiong once served as the governor of the state, and he was a military attaché. The civil official is used as a long history, and he holds official positions such as don't drive and Sima.

Zhang Gongjin asked again: "Where is the country of a thousand islands?" ”

"Don't worry, just about to go to sea, the country of a thousand islands is thousands of miles to the south, and it is further south than Lingnan. I took the general with me, and along the way, I told the general in detail about this country of a thousand islands, which is a place that my Tang Dynasty must occupy, with countless resources, countless wealth, and gold mines are all small money. ”

"Good!" Zhang Gongjin doesn't care about any official position, after all, he is still young and doesn't want to go home to retire.

The further south he went, the more comfortable he felt, and since it was farther south than Lingnan, the weather should be warmer.

Dugu Shura asked at this time, "What's going on on the dock?" ”

Liu Mu sighed slightly: "This matter has to start with the country of a thousand islands." Everything was a coin mess, first because of the gold mines, and then things got bigger and bigger, bringing some old things to the table. ”
