Elegy of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 331 Goulan always pretends to be elegant

Fang Chongyong led the Anxi Expeditionary Force to the north of Guazhou, near a large lake outside Yumen Pass in the Tang Dynasty. Then the livestock and baggage are counted here, the army is organized, and dry food and drinking water are prepared with the army.

The whole army is preparing to set off and take the "Guazhou Road" north to Yizhou (Hami, Xinjiang).

This is already the junction of the Western Region and the Hexi Corridor. Walking northwest, after passing the "Five Spring Eyes", which are the only five spring oases left in the Gobi Desert full of yellow sand on the Guazhou Road, you will encounter a roadblock on the way to the Western Region. :

The Moheyan moraine stretches for hundreds of miles!
It is not a "mountain" in the traditional sense, but Gobi-style hills blown out by the northwest wind. The altitude is definitely not high, it is rocky, sandy and extremely arid. Where there are no springs, almost no grass grows!

These hills have been blown by strong winds over time. Not only do they stand as straight as a knife or an axe, but there are also many huge holes that have been blown out of them. It's like an alien terrain in a science fiction movie that's hard to glimpse elsewhere.

After passing through a relatively wide valley in the Mohe Yan Moraine, we officially entered the boundary of the Western Region. To be precise, we entered the northern part of the Western Region, that is, the vast oasis south of the "Eastern Tianshan Mountains".

This is the headquarters of the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions!
In other words, before leaving Yumen Pass and reaching the border of Yizhou, the nearly 20,000 people and tens of thousands of horses and livestock of the Anxi Expeditionary Force will not receive any supplies except spring water! The whole journey is about five hundred miles!

This road seems not far away, but in fact there are many unfavorable factors on the road that affect the march of the army. The temperature difference between day and night is even more than 40 degrees. It is normal to camp and rest at the spring during the day and march in the sub-zero temperature at night.

Fang Chongyong discussed with his generals what time period to arrive at each water supply point and how to deal with special weather on the road, absorbing opinions from all parties, and worked out a specific charter.

An Chongzhang clapped his hands twice, and two young women wearing ultra-thin gauze skirts with looming snow-white skin entered the handsome tent, and the other party bowed and saluted.

Fang Chongyong waved his hand, knowing that An's people could not remain silent.

Even twins are no exception!

When you see it, put up yellow flags in ravines, white flags on thoroughfares, black flags in valleys, green flags in pastures, and red flags if there are no water sources in and around the area. These flags will alert the army following behind that there may be dangers ahead. Let them prepare in advance for any terrain or things that appear.

Seeing three red flags in a row reminds the army that there is a risk of running out of water if they continue to move forward. These flags will also be used as special signs on logistics routes to distinguish them in the future.

Professional differences are indeed a natural threshold. People in different professions have different performances and characteristics. The two people in front of me are the "real bitches" of this era.

"A pair of beauties?"

This is a "professional" who is extremely effective in seducing men, is proficient in all kinds of sexual skills, and yet maintains his virginity! It is estimated that it will cost a lot of money to cultivate this pair of sisters, and sometimes they are even rare.

Of course Fang Chongyong had political considerations in doing this, but there was no need to tell He Changqi.

This set of undershirt is slim and close to the flesh. No part of it is exposed, but it is exposed everywhere! It can be said to be pure and lustful!
The two took off their curtain hats and still wore red veils on their faces.

Leaving this lake area with abundant water and grass is like kicking open the door to the Western Region. Since then, we have been far away from the civilization of the Central Plains. The Western Region is quite large, and it is a world where wild nature bursts out. It is not as popular as the folk customs of the Central Plains.

Seeing this scene, Fang Chongyong's first feeling was: Goulan always behaves elegantly! high! It’s so high!
He thought to himself: Anaye, a girl from Hexi, although good-looking, just doesn't have the original matcha fragrance like the one in front of her, and she often curses and curses when she loses her temper.

There was very little smoke in the camp at this moment, and a red sun was reflected in the lake, with its ripples shining red, like a fire. Waterbirds fly and play in groups on the lake, creating a lively scene.

On the shore of the big lake outside Yumen Pass, Fang Zhongyong put one hand on the Swift Wind Phantom Knife at his waist and sighed with one hand on his hips.

He Changqi suddenly realized, nodded suddenly and said, "Yes, yes! This is what the general wanted to say just now. Although he is covered with a veil and a curtain hat, he looks exactly the same! When he walks, his buttocks twist and turn, and his waist is so thin. It’s like it’s about to break, that one is really… so sexy!”

After gathering suggestions from all parties, Fang Chongyong ordered the deployment of elite scouts from the expeditionary force and formed an advance battalion called "Signal Flag", with a total of 300 people, exactly the strength of one battalion. These people went to explore the road first and set off one day ahead of the army.

"That's it!"

The training of acquired skills is far superior to innate conditions.

This is a poem that directly describes the scenery. "

The pair of green tea figures in front of me are of a very high rank. This is called professional!

Wild and aggressive.

Fang Chongyong calmly commented in his heart and felt the "sincerity" of Liangzhou An's family.

When you bend over, your plump career line is eye-catching, and you are quite wealthy.

He was stuck for a long time, not knowing how to describe it, and finally said two very vulgar words.

"Fang Jieshuai was joking, joking. Today, the general is here in his own name. The Western Region is vast and the march is bitterly cold. The general is here to send Fang Jieshuai a pair of female slaves to wash and fold the quilt and warm the bed for him on the road. "

"Liu Ruoyun of the slave family, pays homage to Fang Jieshuai."

After all, his "report letter" was sent to Liangzhou in the form of a "clear sign", and then from Liangzhou to Chang'an. Since it is an official document, the government offices along the way, as long as they are interested, can copy it from the inn.

“The lonely smoke is straight in the desert, and the sun is setting over the long river.

"Fang Jieshuai, Chishui Army An Chongzhang asked to see him, and he brought two..."

The army's expedition to the Western Regions does not happen in a day. Even if the war ends within a year or two, it will be a smooth battle. Hexi serves as the general logistics rear area, and supplies will be continuously exported to Datang's Yizhou, Tingzhou, and Xizhou in the Western Regions.

Fang Chongyong turned around and teased.

Although this mode is rare in Datang, it is by no means a special operation. It's a bit like the battle report of a border victory. If you go through the official document through the post system, you will know what the official document is along the way.

It's not unusual for An Chongzhang to come to Guazhou, Fang Chongyong just didn't expect that the other party would bring a pair of twin sisters!
The two met in the handsome tent. As soon as they met, Fang Chongyong held An Chongzhang's hands and smiled warmly: "Oh, what kind of wind brought Deputy Army Envoy An here. You came at the right time. If it were one more day late, the army would have set off for Illinois!"

In the form of a bright sign, the news that An Lushan wrote a letter agreeing to rebel in Liangzhou was made public. No matter how calm the An family was, they could not hold back at this moment and wanted to send someone to Chang'an to plead guilty to the emperor!

He Changqi's voice came from behind Fang Chongyong, who seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Although they couldn't see their faces clearly, whether it was their clothes or their postures, they couldn't be said to be completely different, at least they were exactly the same. This "synchronization rate" really requires careful cultivation. It is impossible for natural growth to be so similar.

The two of them bowed to each other and said to each other, their voices sweet and charming, which made the man want to "care" for them in bed. The eyes of the two people, one is weak and pitiful, the other is pure and curious. These subtle differences are natural when put together, and they can strengthen each other.

"Liu Ruyan from the slave family, pays homage to Fang Jieshuai."

Thereby achieving the effect of one plus one being greater than two.

This trip is not only about marching into the Western Regions, but also about arranging logistical channels.

Liangzhou An's sugar-coated bullets have cost a lot of money!

Seeing Fang Chongyong's thoughtful look, An Chongzhang asked hesitantly: "Are you not satisfied with the Commander-in-Chief?"

"Hey, it doesn't exist. It's just that although the person is nice, it's a pity that the name is not chosen well."

Fang Chongyong couldn't help but pretended to sigh with emotion.

ha?
An Zhongzhang was stunned. He was a tough and tough Qiu Ba. He was proficient in battle formations and did not understand these twists and turns.

Moreover, he didn't know Fang Chongyong's temper very well, let alone what the man in front of him was being pretentious about.

After taking in a woman, it's time to talk about "serious things". What do you want to do?

An Chongzhang murmured in his heart and asked with a puzzled look:

"Shuai Fang, I'm sorry for my stupidity, but why is it that my name is not chosen well?"

"Deputy Commander An, this is your negligence.

Look at these two orchids, the one with blond hair and blue eyes must have come from the Persian Protector's Mansion further west of Congling, or even further away. They are definitely not women from the Central Plains like me.

Calling Liu Ruyan a name like this is inappropriate and makes this handsome person feel very awkward. Look at my concubine who knows medical skills, Shuai didn't change her Chinese name in this section. I always feel that she is still the same as she is. Do you think that's the case? "

Fang Chongyong narrowed his eyes and smiled.

Is this also a problem when riding a horse?

An Chongzhang didn't understand Fang Chongyong's brain circuit.

Hu Ji was given a Chinese name in order to cater to the needs of poets and poets. Not only Chang'an, but also the Hu Ji in Liangzhou generally have Han names.

How new is this thing! The first thing Hu Ji did when she came to the Tang Dynasty was to change her Han name to earn a living! Well, it is to change a Chinese name that conforms to the "rules" of Chinese naming.

Anaye didn't change her name because her father didn't want to change her name! She doesn't need to be a barbarian who goes to the wine shop to dance and pour wine for the drinkers.

"Then... why don't Fang Jieshuai give them new names?"

An Chongzhang suggested in a low voice, with a very low posture.

"Well, from today on, your name will be Angelina, your name will be Angelica!
It just so happens that he comes from the An family, and his surname is An. Hahahahahahaha, Deputy Military Envoy An, the blond and blue-eyed Hu Ji should be called this kind of name. Do you think Shuai’s arrangement for this section is appropriate? "

Fang Zhongyong pointed at Liu Ruyan and Liu Ruoyun and laughed. Their attitudes were so casual, as if they were the same gods who were aloof and could take possession of all things in the world and deal with them at will!
It's outrageous, but I just like messing around like this! You bite me!

Fang Jieshuai was confident at the moment.

"Thank you, Marshal Jie, for the name!"

The two women looked stiff and bowed, not knowing what to say. Before the man fell asleep, the name he had called for more than ten years was changed.

The series of "killing moves" to seduce men that had been brewing for a long time seemed to have no chance of being used.

Fang Chongyong gently shook his left hand, and the twin sisters exited the camp obediently. Under the light of the torch, An Chongzhang, who had a smile on his face just now, now looked at Fang Chongyong with a solemn expression and said nothing, waiting for the other party to speak.

"The An family of Liangzhou has been entrenched in Hexi for more than a hundred years. Since Emperor Gaozu, he traded Liangzhou to the Tang Dynasty and gained wealth in exchange.

However, since Kaiyuan, no Hexi Jiedu envoy came from the Liangzhou An family, and there were even very few who served as military envoys of the Chishui Army.

Deputy Military Envoy An, what do you think about this? "

Fang Chongyong lowered his head, kneaded his hands, and asked casually.

An Chongzhang didn't say anything. He didn't know whether it was because it was difficult to say or because he couldn't say it. Anyway, this question was very taboo.

It is easy to follow the truth when you open your mouth. If you speak less, you will make fewer mistakes. If you don’t speak, it is good!

Seeing that the other party seemed to have listened, Fang Chongyong continued:

"The Chishui Army was originally the private army of the An family, and it has always been controlled by An family's men. However, since the Tianbao Tenth Festival was established, the imperial court has been guarding and guarding against An's control of the Chishui Army, and has continued to move to other towns. soldiers and horses, and joined the Chishui Army.

Moreover, the Guazhou Moli Army and Shazhou Doulu Army under the command of the Hexi Jiedu Envoy did not have An's network at all. The imperial court's arrangement seemed to be a check and balance.

Whether others have thought about the reason, I don’t know.

But Deputy Military Envoy An never thought about why the imperial court would rather let Guo Ziyi, a former general of the Hedong Frontier Army, come to Liangzhou to serve as the Chishui Army Military Envoy, but not let you, the original Deputy Military Envoy, become a regular officer? "

Fang Chongyong raised another core question: What is the court's view of the An family?
An Chongzhang still looked thoughtful, but his fingers trembled slightly, revealing his nervousness.

Seeing that the other party was still calm, Fang Chongyong continued to add fire and said:

"Wuwei City in Liangzhou is the third most populous city in the Tang Dynasty after Chang'an and Luoyang.

Among them, there are a lot of floating people traveling from north to south. Although the household registration in Datang cannot be ranked third, there is no problem in ranking among the top five. The An family can be said to be the uncrowned king of Liangzhou. He holds a large number of troops and can be said to be able to respond to a hundred calls in Wuwei.

If the Hexi Jiedu envoy was friendly with the An family, he would even obey his advice. What would the center of the imperial court, especially the saints, think after knowing these things? "

After hearing this, An Chongzhang's expression finally changed.

"What's more, An's family still has people in the court!
Although he is not following the path of the right prime minister, but... there should be strong support, right? Is it Li Shizhi, the Prime Minister of the Left?

Once someone from the An clan in Liangzhou serves as a military envoy or even an ambassador to the Western Regions, the situation will be like that, even the commander-in-chief dare not imagine. "

As Fang Chongyong spoke, he poured a glass of wine for An Chongzhang and filled another glass for himself.

An Zhongzhang bit his lips subconsciously, his expression changed several times, and he could no longer maintain the calmness he had when he first arrived.

He was struggling in his heart, hesitating whether to reveal all the conditions arranged by his family. After thinking for a long time, he decided not to say anything so as not to anger Fang Chongyong.

“Although you Liangzhou An clan have no intention of rebellion, you already have the ability to do so.

The sage was not satisfied with his food and could not sleep well!
If you don't believe it, you can bribe Gao Lishi and ask around the corner.

You can definitely tell whether what I said is true or false. "

Fang Chongyong picked up his wine glass and waited for An Chongzhang's reaction.

Sure enough, a moment later, An Chongzhang picked up the wine glass with a heavy face, clinked it with Fang Chongyong, and drank the wine in one gulp without saying a single unnecessary word.

Fang Chongyong stopped talking and looked directly at An Chongzhang, waiting for the other party's answer.

"After the general returns, he will persuade some people in the family not to do stupid things. The general already understands Fang Jieshuai's good intentions."

An Chongzhang said bitterly.

He came to negotiate terms, but Fang Chongyong's words made him give up the idea.

The Liangzhou An family was unable to negotiate terms with Fang Chongyong, not because he was too weak, but because he was too strong. He was so strong that the saint would have no reason to deviate from him in the future!

At this time, retreating bravely from the rapids is not only not a coward, but also the only way to protect yourself.

Unless Anshi really rebels!

Fang Chongyong saw through the current situation and had them under control. Any measures taken to counter the Anxi Expeditionary Force will be magnified tenfold in the future, and will eventually rebound on Anshi himself!

From this perspective, Fang Chongyong’s “report letter” seems quite meaningful.

"It's getting late, Deputy Commander An, do you want to rush back in a hurry?"

Fang Chongyong asked, stroking his short beard, his face looking very relaxed.

"With military duties in hand, how dare you stay far away from the station? General, I will say goodbye."

An Chongzhang crossed his hands and saluted, not daring to relax at all.

He had just walked to the door of the commander's tent when Fang Chongyong's voice came from behind him: "Those twins, let them wash their faces and keep their clean bodies. They will wait in Liangzhou for the commander to favor him after he returns from victory this season. There is no merit in the body." , What kind of woman are you doing!"

An Chongzhang paused for a moment, then turned around and said with a respectful expression: "I will respectfully follow the instructions of Commander-in-Chief, and I will retire at the end of the day."
