Datang: Starting from a fortune-telling stall, Wu Zetian was suddenly abducted

Chapter 214 A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity
The curtain here was lifted, and Yuan Tiangang and Zhong Qing stepped in.

Yuan Shouwei also stood up to greet him.

Yuan Tiangang looked at Yuan Shouwei's face, breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"The skull is plump, and the eyes are piercing. This is the appearance of the catastrophe."

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist, for overcoming the heart tribulation."

Yuan Shouwei replied respectfully:
"Thank you two fellow Taoists for worrying about Yuan Shouwei."

Zhongqing said from the side:

"How can you say it's your business? It's obviously ours' business."

"Sanshan saved all of us."

Yuan Tiangang nodded and said in a low voice:

"Wander the world with your sword and settle your grudges with pleasure."

"If I were not in the imperial court, I would do the same thing as you."

Zhongqing nodded approvingly while looking left and right and said:

"Where's the princess?"

"She has been taking care of you for the past two days."

Yuan Shouwei replied casually:
"In the back, dressing up."

After hearing this, Yuan Tiangang couldn't help but look solemn:
"Yuan Shouwei, a gentleman should act based on emotion and stop based on etiquette."

"I know that you and Zhao'er are in love. If you two have no objections, I will propose marriage to Wu Mansion when I get back."

"But before that, you must not do anything deviant."

Before he finished speaking, Wu Fu came out from behind the tent and spat at Yuan Tiangang with a scarlet face:

"Uncle Tiangang, what nonsense are you talking about."

"I just got up. I don't want you to see my unkempt appearance. Go in and wash your face."

"Where have you all been thinking of!"

A look of reluctance towards Yuan Tiangang.

Seeing Wu Yan's appearance, Yuan Tiangang knew that he had misunderstood, so he quickly covered it up with a smile:
"Zhao'er, I'm doing it for your own good."

"You guys are rubbing shoulders with each other all the time. If word spreads about it, it will be bad for your reputation."

"It's better to put the marriage proposal on the agenda."

Wu Fu immediately lowered his head when he heard this and said:

"Uncle Tiangang is right, I can do anything here."

After listening to Yuan Tiangang's words, Yuan Shouwei realized that this was really bad for Wu Fu's reputation.He also looked at Wu Fu and said seriously:
"Zhao'er, you are too young and your body is not fully developed in all aspects."

"When you are sixteen, I will definitely go to the house in person to propose marriage."

"Don't worry, I, Yuan Shouwei, will recognize you for the rest of my life."

After hearing his last words, Wu Yan felt as if his heart had been filled with honey, and hummed like a mosquito:
"Me too."

The military tent was filled with a joyful atmosphere for a while.

time.

Yuan Shouwei and several others went to the general's mansion to discuss matters.

This time it was not in the Jiang Mansion, but in the serious General Mansion, which had been given over to the Zoroastrian Cult.

Now the serious general Guo Xiaoke is staying temporarily.

When several people entered the meeting hall, they saw that Guo Xiaoke and a group of generals were already sitting in the hall.

Seeing Yuan Shouwei coming in, they all stood up and saluted, saying in unison:

"Thank you, Master Guo, for saving your life."

Yuan Shouwei was so panicked that he quickly returned the courtesy and said:

"Generals, your words are serious. Yuan Shou is so virtuous and capable that he dares to accept this great gift."

Guo Xiaoke said with a smile:
"Why can't you do it?" "You saved me Guo Xiaoke three times, you saved Captain Qiao once, you saved General Jiang and his wife once."

"And all the generals here who are accompanying us in the war."

"And among the brothers outside, none of them can accept your kindness."

After saying this, all the generals on the side nodded.

After hearing this, Yuan Shouwei looked at the generals in the hall. Qiao Shiwang and Jiang Xin were all familiar faces.

Well, the thought of why General Jiang was covered with a hijab flashed through his mind.He looked at everyone again and asked in surprise:
"I contacted General Guo and asked him to ask for support. Why are everyone here?"

Guo Xiaoke asked him to sit down next to the main seat, smiled and said:

"I can't do it if I don't come."

"There are so many Turks, and I, Lao Guo, can't eat them all by myself."

It turned out that after Guo Xiaoke received Yuan Shouwei's letter asking for help, he learned about the Turks' conspiracy.

He was also shocked and immediately wanted to send troops to support Yi Ning, but was stopped by Sheng Xin.

Because Sheng Xingang had fought a battle with the Turks in Yining City, he had a better understanding of the Turks' movements.

He felt that after the last defeat, the Turks would definitely mobilize more troops this time, at least more troops than last time.

Guo Xiaoke felt that what he said was reasonable, so he prepared food and fodder, deployed troops and generals, and asked Tan Ma to explore around;
Soon we got the exact news that in addition to the 2 Turkic troops in Suiye City, the Western Turks would also send [-] troops.

Under the banner of the remaining forces of the Eastern Turks, Yining was occupied.

After confirming this information, he and Sheng Xin decided to use their tactics and divide their troops into two groups.

He contacted the Tang troops in various cities in the Western Region and secretly gathered three hundred miles outside Yining City.

On the other side, Sheng Xin took a team of troops and directly captured Suiye City, cutting off the Turks' retreat.

Because Yuan Shouwei killed everyone in Suiye City, Suiye City itself was depleted of troops.

This time, their 1 troops outside the city came to raid Yining City again. This was definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Therefore, after Guo Xiaoke and Qiao Shiwang encircled and suppressed the Turkic army under Yining City, they did not rest, and then pursued the enemy all the way to Suiye City.

At this time, Sheng Xin had already captured Suiye City and set up an ambush halfway. He and Guo Xiaoke once again attacked the Turks from front to back.

Thirty thousand Turkic cavalry, not even one out of ten.

In this battle, they not only captured Suiye City, but also firmly blocked the main route of the Western Turks heading south.

Moreover, it completely dispelled the arrogance of the Western Turks and greatly reduced their effective strength.

For at least three years, the Turks will no longer cause trouble.

And all of this can be said to be inseparable from Yuan Shouwei.

It is no exaggeration to say that he took the greatest credit.

The reason why Sheng Xin is not here today is because after blocking the Turks, he returned to defense overnight.

At the same time, many Turkic prisoners were taken away and the walls of Suiye City were to be rebuilt.

Hearing this, Yuan Shouwei felt a little guilty and said:
"I'm really sorry for everyone. Because of my personal anger, you lost many prisoners."

"It is also a violation of military regulations. When the general reports, just report it truthfully. Your Majesty's blame will be borne by me, Yuan Shouwei."

Guo Xiaoke waved his hands after hearing this and said:
"Where did you say, you killed them and saved us a lot of food."

Yuan Shouwei knew that he was comforting himself, so he could only smile.

Seeing that he was still guilty, Guo Xiaoke had no choice but to persuade him seriously:

"The Imperial Guard did a good job, but most of the Turks are rebellious and have rebelled many times."

"Your magic attack completely defeated them."

"As for what you said about the massacre of Turkic prisoners and Zoroastrian believers, it was me and General Jiang who did it. This has been reported to His Majesty and has nothing to do with the National Advisor."

After hearing this, Yuan Shouwei also thanked him.

At the same time, he secretly decided not to let Guo Xiaoke and the others take the blame. When he returned to Chang'an, he resigned as Imperial Advisor and made the matter clear to His Majesty.
