Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 404
Xinzhou Prefecture governs Dingxiang County.

Li Shenfu, who sat on the high seat, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "The Turkic southern invaders only use Mayi as their leader."

"Place a wise and brave general in the city of Nao, store up a lot of gold and silk, and give generous rewards to those who come to surrender. Count the strange soldiers to attack his city, plunder the crops, and destroy his livelihood. Before his age, he will have nothing to eat. Mayi is not enough to map."

Li Gaoqian, who was next to him, was ignorant at first, but he quickly realized it and said with a smile: "The old man is just making people laugh."

Li Shenfu shook his head slightly, "Li Huairen is a man with methods and strategies..."

Although Li Shenfu and Liu Shirang were at odds, it could be seen that the other party's strategy was likely to succeed. He was delighted to see that although Li Shan had different means, he perfectly achieved the purpose of Liu Shirang's strategy, and even Liu Shirang's plan less than the purpose.

Li Shenfu thought in his heart, if it weren't for the addition of Li Shan, Liu Shirang might really have a chance to come back... Li Shan emptied him, making Liu Shirang helpless, which is also the main reason why Li Shenfu has a good impression of Li Shan reason.

After all, Li Shenfu's current obsession is to kill Liu Shirang.

Regarding this point, Liu Shirang knew it well, Li Shan could see it, and Li Gaoqian could see it even more.

This is also the reason why Li Gaoqian suddenly appeared in Xinzhou.

"What did you say?" Li's talisman bounced off the couch suddenly, his face was full of surprise, "Liu Shirang secretly communicated with the Turks?"

"That's right." Li Gaoqian said confidently: "The old man is besieged on all sides. Now that the city of Mayi is broken and Shuozhou is in a miserable state...what else can he do?"

Li Shenfu can understand this sentence, Ma Yicheng is broken, this blame must be Liu Shirang's responsibility, maybe Chang'an is thinking about what crime to take Liu Shirang for.

In this case, Liu Shirang may indeed vote for the Turks.

Li Gaoqian sighed: "If the Liu thief rebelled against Tang and surrendered through the pass, Hedong..."

Li Shenfu fought a cold war, if the Turkic army invaded Hedong again...I made a lot of money last year, but not every time I was so lucky.

After pacing back and forth for a long time, Li Shenfu still didn't quite believe it, hesitatingly said: "Back then, Yiyang County was appointed as the governor of Bingzhou, and he fought against Jieli Khan's army for more than a month, scolding those who persuaded him to surrender, I'm afraid the sage might not believe it..."

Li Gaoqian said with a smile: "At this time, at that time, the governor of Bingzhou in those days is now the magistrate of Nao county."

The difference in status and the change of form have led to a shift in people's hearts... This is also normal.

Li Shenfu gritted his teeth secretly, shook his head and said: "Raise the pass and surrender... Now the entire Yanmen Pass is in Li Huairen's hands."

"The king of Xiangyi's words are wrong." Li Gaoqian said sternly: "The Hou of Yiyang County was ordered to manage Mayi first, and then he was ordered to guard Yanmen. Important town?"

Li Shenfu sneered, but then realized that Li Gaoqian had to give up Liu Shi to death... This is also what he wanted.

But it's not a trivial matter to frame the general guarding the pass as secretly cooperating with the enemy country...Ma Yicheng is destroyed, Liu Shirang will inevitably be demoted, and I haven't had a chance to deal with him by then?
Li Shenfu knew in his heart that Li Gaoqian hated Liu Shirang deeply, and he wanted to use himself as a weapon.

Li Shenfu looked gloomy, "This matter cannot be ignored."

"Last year, Liu Shirang was dismissed from office, but within a few months he was reinstated and served as the governor of Guangzhou. Later, he was ordered by the Holy Order to manage Mayi." Li Gaoqian said with a smile: "We need to know about the rebellion of Dugu Huai'en back then."

Li Shenfu's expression changed slightly. Back then, Dugu Huai'en conspired to rebel. Liu Shirang found out the news and risked his life to report it... At that time, Li Yuan was preparing to cross the Yellow River to the Dugu Huai'en camp.

It is precisely because of this incident that although Liu Shirang was helpless in the court, he was able to save him. Li Yuan was quite generous in this respect... Both Pei Ji and Liu Wenjing were defeated in the battlefield, but they were able to recover in a blink of an eye, even Li Yuan Gao Qian himself buried more than ten thousand troops, but he only cut off the general Zuo Wuwei, not the noble.

After thinking for a long time, Li Shenfu sat back on the couch, leaned forward, and said in a low voice: "Does the prince know?"

"The prince doesn't know." Li Gaoqian has always been smart in this regard, and said sincerely: "I will sue, one for my own body, and the other for the king of Xiangyi."

Li Shenfu nodded. If Li Jiancheng knew about it, it might even be the plan of the East Palace...then there was a certain chance that it would involve the battle for the heir apparent, and he had refused to return to Beijing because he didn't want to be involved in this vortex.

Li Shenfu believed that Li Gaoqian was telling the truth. The reason was simple. Li Gaoqian was defeated and demoted, but he had the crown prince as his backing in the court.

"Liu Thief was arrogant back then, and even worse after his recovery." Li Gaoqian sighed: "If it was a personal grudge, the King of Xiangyi must have had a lot of it, but now it is involved in military and state affairs, related to the survival of Yanmen..."

Although he knew that Li Gaoqian was a lobbyist, when Li Shenfu still couldn't understand the scenes in Nao County, he dared to give him a big punch... He couldn't help but stretched out his hand and touched his cheek. He had intimate contact with Liu Shirang's knee.

"Indeed it's even worse..." Li Shenfu took a deep look at Li Gaoqian, "Maybe Gaoqian has already made arrangements?"

Li Gaoqian smiled triumphantly, and said softly: "Mayi City was destroyed, and Gao Manzheng's Ministry fled Cao Chuantuo to Yanmen. This person was once a general of Liu Shirang's Ministry."

Li Shenfu smiled suddenly, if Gao Manzheng would sue, then he just had to push the boat along, and even if it didn't work, he didn't have to bear much responsibility.

A moment later, the thin and tall Cao Chuantuo knelt in front of Li Shenfu, and said impassionedly: "Liu thief first ordered the Duke of Jiangxia to bury the army of Yanmen, and then refused to help Shuozhou and destroyed the city of Mayi. Li Khan secretly passed the song..."

Li Shenfu went through in his mind. Liu Shirang had long colluded with the Turks, so he refused to listen to Li Shan's persuasion and sent Li Gao to move out of the fortress, which caused the army to be buried outside the fortress. Then he refused to send troops to rescue Mayi, which made Gao Manzheng almost The whole family was destroyed...the logic is smooth.

Li Gaoqian asked with a smile: "Since the Hou of Yiyang County secretly communicated with the Turks, why did the Turks not attack Yanmen Pass when the city of Mayi was destroyed?"

"Mr. Rong Guo held on to Mayi for more than a month, and it lasted for a long time. The day the city was broken, it was already freezing, and the Turkic cavalry had to go back to the grassland." Hit it.

"But Yugushe, the only son of Jieli Khan, once led an army to Yanmen Pass, and fled away without sending a single soldier or shooting an arrow." Cao Chuantuo said angrily: "This fact is very strange, please also ask Xiangyi The king will investigate."

Li Shenfu couldn't help laughing, and turned to look at Li Gaoqian, "Since that's the case, what is Gaoqian's desire?"

"The memorial has already been written." Li Gaoqian tentatively said: "I am not good at writing, I don't know the king of Xiangyi..."

The meaning is very simple. I, Li Gaoqian, will do this. Anyway, I have the support of Donggong behind me... This time, Liu Shirang made me suffer so badly, I must kill him!
But isn't this a great help to you Li Shenfu?

Therefore, after reading the memorial, Li Shenfu simply appended his name on the back.
