Since they are commensurate with brothers, and Ewen Yuwu is extraordinarily generous, Du Shiyi has been doubly preferential to him, and many mutual market terms have all been explained by Chen Baoer one by one, in his words, that is, he will not use false words to deceive and let the other party suffer. Nomads don't care about these things on paper, everything is decided by the size of a fist, that is, strength. Therefore, for these concepts put forward by Du Shiyi, Ewen Yuwu felt fresh on the one hand, but also felt very moved on the other hand. What's more, one more powerful ally is better than one more powerful enemy.

Before leaving, Du Shiyi personally sent him out of the north gate of Anbei Ya Tent City thirty miles away. This special encounter made him even more happy, and even said a resounding sentence when he touched his chest with his right hand when saying goodbye.

"If my brother encounters something that needs me in the future, I should personally lead all the soldiers and horses of Guli and wait for my brother's dispatch!"

Soon after the return of Yuwu in Ewen, Huya returned from Chang'an, bringing the news that Li Linfu was seriously ill and was trying his best to reconcile with Yang Zhao. Regarding the speculation that there is a confluence of Li and Yang in Chang'an, Du Shiyi did not comment, but he comforted the exhausted tiger teeth who had traveled thousands of miles this time. And this matter, which was thousands of miles away, was so far away that it was impossible to care about the other people in Anbei Yatent City, and Chen Bao'er was busy contacting the envoy sent by Huang Jiasi to discuss the future meeting between Ju Li and Du Shiyi; Zhang Xingzheng is in charge of contacting merchant representatives from afar; Cen Shen and Wang Changling were responsible for receiving the scholars who came to Anbei Yatent City to study with great interest...... As for Li Guangbi and Fugu Huai'en, as well as Aguten Argen and many other generals, they were busy getting acquainted with their respective soldiers and horses.

Unlike Chang'an, which is thousands of miles away and full of intrigues, this city, which has just been completed for only a few years, is showing a busy and thriving atmosphere.

It is not surprising that the old enemies who have been fighting openly and secretly for many years will usher in the end of the world, in addition to this good news, Du Shiyi has gained another good news in a moment. A long line that he has released for many years finally gave him good news that he had been waiting for for too long. When he received a secret letter from thousands of miles away, he summoned Azler to him.

For so many years, her biological sons Du Guangyuan and Du Youlin were not around, so Du Shiyi seemed to have poured a lot of effort into many teenagers of their age in order to relieve their thoughts. For example, the two sons of Sugu Wynne, such as Longquan and Azler, and even the son of Arbuth, who came to serve later, and Argen, the son of Nehliu, also did not hesitate to give advice. Among the many younger generations, Azler and Longquan, the Han Dynasty, are naturally very different.

As soon as Azler arrived, Du Shiyi said straight to the point: "You should know that in the past few years, many of your brothers in the Fuyun Temple in the Central Surrender City have been traveling all over Mobei, either to deliver news for me, or to spy on secrets between various departments, or to subdue horse thieves and so on for their own use, as for the few people, they have almost never returned. You have always been the head of this group of people in the Fuyun Temple, and it has not been a day or two since you thought about it. Perhaps, you even think, that they are already dead? ”

Du Shiyi began with such words, and Azler couldn't help but hurriedly explain: "I know that the marshal must have another appointment for them, and I have never doubted it......"

"These are people who have shared the ups and downs with you since childhood, and it's not surprising that you have any suspicions. It's been so many years, and I've kept their whereabouts and purpose a secret, because if many things had been leaked out earlier, they wouldn't have been secrets. You went to Yunzhong County with me last time, do you remember, what kind of fires do the people there use to make heat? ”

Azler didn't expect Du Shiyi to suddenly turn to such a topic, and was stunned for a moment before he said thoughtfully: "Remember...... Carboniferous? Uncle Huya once told me that it looks like a stone, but it doesn't need to be cut down to burn charcoal, as long as it is dug up, it can be used. And inexhaustible. ”

It is impossible to be inexhaustible, but Shanxi Datong in later generations was called the coal capital, and it is conceivable that under the current conditions, there is no need to consider the problem of resource exhaustion. Although Yunzhou is good, it is too far away from Anbei Yatent City. Thinking of this fact, Du Shiyi said with a smile: "It is the charcoal, and now that there are more and more people in the city of Anbei Yaya, it is gradually not enough to rely on livestock manure to dry it for winter heating, and cutting down trees in and around Wudeqian Mountain will only cause greater problems in the long run." Therefore, since I started a few years ago, I sent a few of your brothers to rob Ze, with some Taoist priests who are good at alchemy in the Central Plains, to look for open-pit coal that can be mined in various parts of Mobei. ”

Even if the few brothers in the Fuyun Temple who have no news now were really executed by Du Shiyi because they knew something, Azler followed Du Shiyi for many years, and he didn't dare to have any resentment and resentment, and at this moment, he only felt surprised and relaxed when he learned that everyone was living in the world with dignity and shouldering an important mission. Without thinking about it, he knelt down, lowered his head and said, "Since the marshal has told me about such a serious matter, there must be another assignment." But please command, I will never give up! ”

"Good!"

Du Shiyi suddenly smiled. He vaguely remembered that in later generations, Inner and Outer Mongolia were all large minerals, especially open-pit coal mines. But in this era, it is simply difficult to rely on those simple tools and use horses to find such resources, not to mention that when he sent people before, he had not been able to enter Mobei at all, and now he only really controls the area of about a thousand miles near Anbei Yatent City. Now the information reported from there, although it is a valley seven hundred miles away from Anbei Yatent City, it is by no means far from Tongluo's territory, and he has to be careful.

Waving to Azler to get up, Du Shiyi unfolded the map he had just sent, demarcated an area for Azler to remember, and said in a deep voice: "I will allocate you 800 elite tooth soldiers, and after you follow the messenger to the place to rendezvous, you will build fortifications around here and defend them on the spot." Remember, one is to keep it secret, the other is to be quiet, and find out what mines are there, so you don't have to mine them right away. If necessary, I will continue to send people to build forts there for mining. Within a month or two, you find the right person to replace you and come back. Among those robes you had back then, after all these years of experience, there must be people who can take charge of themselves, and I won't overdo it! ”

After all these years, I hope there is not only a coal mine, but also something else. Of course, even if it is just coal, the strategic value is quite high, even if other departments outside the Seychelles may not need such living resources, but he can be used as a secret smelting weapon, and he has successively transported a lot of iron from the Central Plains over the years!

In Hebei Province, An Lushan transferred 60,000 troops, known as 150,000, and was starting from Pinglu, with the surrendered Xi people as the guide, and sent troops to the Khitan tent. He was supposed to stay with Shi Siming as the queen and guard Youzhou, but now he can be regarded as a talented man, thinking about it, he left the Jiedu judge Zhang Tongru in Youzhou to stay in charge of the future, and the rest of Shi Siming plus the Wu family brothers, as well as Hou Xiyi and Li Mingjun, almost brought all the generals who could be brought. Not only that, but he also made up his mind to fight a war, so when formulating a strategy, he proposed a battle to decide, set out from Pinglu to attack thousands of miles, cross the Tuhuzhen River, and then attack the Khitan tooth tent.

Regarding his wonderful idea, Hou Xiyi and Li Mingjun naturally have reservations. But they all knew that An Lushan was becoming more and more self-righteous now, so no one vigorously objected. On the contrary, generals such as Tian Chengsi who have been promoted in the past few years, such as Xue Song, a cutting-edge general from a family of generals, are all eager to try. After all, everyone knows that the previous battle that defeated Li Yanzhong to death has nothing to do with them, but if they can pull out the Khitan tooth tent this time, then they will all go down in history just like Zhang Shouqi's great achievement in capturing the Khitan King back then.

Therefore, the plan of rushing day and night and going straight to the Khitan tooth tent was actually responded to by a group of people by a slight and clever way!

"Xiyi, knowing that this battle may not be easy, why don't you and I invite ourselves to the queen of the palace, and we have to follow Fat An?"

When he walked out of the Pinglu Jiedu Embassy, hearing Li Mingjun ask in a low voice, Hou Xiyi just shrugged his shoulders lightly: "You don't know what the fat man is, if we invite the queen of the palace, in case he is defeated, we will definitely think that we know that there is a problem but do not bring it up, and even if we follow him for so many years, we will never have good fruits to eat." And if he wins, you look at the monkey anxious appearance of those people under him, Tian Chenghei, and we will still have the face of the officials and soldiers at that time? Even the fat man himself will definitely be suspicious of us. In the midst of the chaos, the two of us try our best to preserve our strength and save our lives! ”

Since the Xin'an King Li Yi led the soldiers and horses to fight the first counterattack on the Khitan to win a big victory, Zhang Shouqi has been defending for many years, and it has won one battle after another, from Youzhou to Pinglu This area of the big battles and small battles, the Tang army has always won more and lost less, and occasionally one or two defeats of losing troops and generals have long been ignored by the top and bottom. Therefore, this time, An Lushan even stretched out his hand across the boundary, and tried every means to transfer more than 10,000 soldiers and horses from Hedong to put them under his command, with a total strength of more than 60,000, so he didn't feel that he would encounter any obstacles, and it was only a matter of time before he stepped on the horse Khitan tooth tent.

Anyway, he is not only good at slapping horses, in addition to deceiving those Khitans and Xi people to automatically send them to the door, he is under Zhang Shouqi, and later concurrently led Fan Yang and Ping Lu, he has won many battles! Among them, after Li Yanzhong and Li Huaixiu committed suicide and Princess Hefan rebelled, he fought a big victory! It is precisely because of this battle that the deaths of the two unlucky princesses are naturally attributed to Li Yanpet and Li Huaixiu, and they have nothing to do with him. After all, the father and mother of these two cheap princesses will not get along with him, who is just popular!

Therefore, when quietly crossing the Tuhuzhen River, when the guide of the Xi people, who was the former army, said that there were three hundred miles to the Khitan tooth tent, An Lushan immediately ordered people to give an order to the whole army, day and night, and went straight to the Khitan tooth tent non-stop!
