Changfeng Thousands of Miles End Han Song

Chapter 878

Just when Lu Qian couldn't make a decision for a while, the wind and snow had filled the entire Western Region.

When Zhao Bushi's family was shivering around the stove in Hami City, Guo Yaoshi in Hotan City was also fiddling with a dispatch order from Jinling.

This is a dispatch order from the Ministry of War. Its content is very simple. If he is asked to lead the leaders of the tribes in the Western Regions to set off immediately to face the saint.Naturally, the imperial court's great appreciation for Guo Yaoshi's achievements in southern Xinjiang in the past five years is also indispensable.

Gaochang in the Western Regions directly surrendered to Lu Qi’s army, and the Eastern Kara Khanate, which was next to it, chose to surrender after a little resistance. It’s just that the Western Regions are too big, even if there is a voice saying that the area west of Suiye City will be destroyed. It is the Protectorate of Anxi, but this order has not been issued for a day, and everything will be under the rule of the Western Regions.

In the current Western Regions, with Suiye City as the boundary line, the area to the west is suppressed by the three banners of Zhenghuang Banner, Xianghuang Banner and Zhenghong Banner, and the east is divided into two parts, Tianshan, South Tianshan and North because of the terrain, referred to as Tiannan and Tianbei. It is the southern and northern borders of later generations.

Hotan City was the former Khotan, not only the administrative center of Tiannan, but also the military center.Guo Yaoshi, the left deputy commander of the soldiers and horses of the Western Regions, is in charge.

Since the end of his latent career, the latter first wandered on the prairie for two years, suppressing the remnants of the Khitan forces, and then studied in the senior general class of the Wulue Academy for a year, and then was transferred to the Western Regions.Then he participated in the original Western Expedition, made great contributions, and then stayed in the Western Regions.First the right deputy manager, and then the left deputy manager who sits on one side.

It is reasonable to say that returning to the court with "barbarian chieftains" and a large number of tributes, and returning triumphantly, is an exciting and beautiful mission for the warriors.For a general, such a job means honor, official title, and rich political capital.However, facing such a dispatch order, Guo Yaoshi couldn't get excited at all.

This is not because Guo Yaoshi has an arrogant personality and regards fame and wealth as dung, nor is it because he feels that he is not qualified to be a wife and son.In fact, these honors and official titles are exactly what he has been pursuing since he fought for many years.Feng wife Yinzi is something he often dreamed about in his dreams... However, when a dispatch order from Jinling was really placed in front of him, he was full of disappointment at this moment.

Although Guo Yaoshi is a warrior, he is definitely not a rough and stupid person.He has read a lot, so he is especially satisfied with Emperor Lu.

He was terrified by the allusion that the other dynasty was established, and the founding emperor often "killed the cunning rabbit and cooked by the running dog".However, the Emperor Lu in front of him is really kind-hearted, with deep affection and friendship.There is no such treatment for the heroes of the founding of the country.Even Li Shimin can't compare with him.

Although Guo Yaoshi joined him halfway, he was never worried that Emperor Lu would tear down the bridge and kill the donkey.He was just regretting that after he was transferred to the Western Regions, if there were any Western Expeditions in the future, he would not be able to keep up with a hundred of them.

During these years in the Western Regions, Guo Yaoshi had a very systematic understanding of the Tianfang Sect and the demise of the Kingdom of Tian. The slogan of "Jihad" made him a little excited.

As a Buddhist, or a very devout Buddhist, he is very keen on fighting Tianfang.

But he also knew that he was not young anymore.This time I went back, there was really another Western Expedition, how could he be appointed by the emperor when he was over [-] years old?

Thinking of these Guo Yaoshi's mood began to become dull unconsciously.The dispatch order in front of him suddenly became an "unpleasant circle" in his eyes.Just as Guo Yaoshi was full of worries, the guard outside the door suddenly came in and reported: "Director, Ye Canjun is asking to see you."

The so-called "Ye Canjun" is actually Yelu Ye.

Ye Mingsen?Yelu Mawu's younger brother, what is he doing here?Maybe he also knew about the dispatch order.That's right, Yelu Mawu and Yue Pengju have a deep friendship, and they are very well-informed, and Ye Mingsen can enjoy the shade under the big tree.

"Come in quickly."

This matter is a bit depressing, and I feel uncomfortable holding back all the time by myself, so I just found someone to talk about it.

But before Guo Yaoshi's words fell, Ye Mingsen's hearty laughter sounded outside the door: "Mr. Guo, Ye is here today uninvited, but he wants to ask for two glasses of wedding wine."

Sure enough, it was a psychic message, Guo Yaoshi thought in his heart, and said with a smile on his face: "Whoever's wedding wine is missing, you, Ye Da, will join the army. Come here, serve tea quickly."

"For several years in the army, he has made many meritorious deeds. Now that he returns to the court, he will be famous after his achievements. Ye Mou first congratulates the general manager."

Ye Mingsen's roots are good, but he has never been arrogant in his behavior. What's so good about him?There are some powerful people in the army.Not to mention people like Yue Pengju, not to mention rising stars like Luan Junshi, Han Wu, Wang Gui, Yao Zheng, Li Shifu, Yang Yizhong, even Yang Zaixing, who is nearly ten years younger than him, is not something he can compare to.

Seeing what Ye Mingsen said, Guo Yaoshi no longer concealed it, and expressed all the disappointment in his heart.Ye Mingsen was born in the Yelu clan, so he was naturally a Buddhist, and he didn't like the Tianfang Sect, which destroyed Khotan's Buddhist kingdom and suppressed Gaochang.After hearing Guo Yaoshi's displeasure, he was a little unexpected at first, and then smiled wryly.

With the end of the Nanyang War, more and more people of the older generation were "put on the shelf" by Emperor Lu.

Helpless, Lu Qi didn't have so many wars to fight.Lu Junyi and his like, many people have been leisurely wandering in Jinling City for five years. Lu Qian's attitude is very clear now that he wants to give the younger generation the opportunity to lead troops to fight.

Guo Yaoshi is less than [-] years old now, he still feels that he is physically strong, but how can he compare with those [-]-year-old youngsters?

"Your Majesty wants me to bring the heads of various ministries from the Western Regions to the capital to pay tribute to the capital in late spring next year. It is my honor. But... this time, I am afraid that I will never have the chance to go to the west again." Guo Yaoshi said reluctantly.It is naturally a very honorable thing to bring the heads of various tribes from the Western Regions to the pilgrimage, but this honor does not belong to him alone.Because the Western Regions were not brought down by him alone.Looking at it this way, the joy and glory are somewhat weakened, and it is not much higher than the temptation of Xizheng.

Ye Mingsen thought of his most direct backer, Yelu Mawu, who also retreated to the second line for several years.At that time, he was not as old as Guo Yaoshi is now.According to Ye Mingsen, if Guo Yaoshi was able to retire to the second line at such an age, Emperor Lu might not be compensating him.

"When a man is alive, what he seeks is to make meritorious deeds, so that he can honor his ancestors and enshrine his wife and son. Now that the meritorious deeds of the general manager have been established, and now he brings the heads of the Western Regions to pay tribute to our heavenly court. It will be recorded in the annals of history. Your Majesty You will definitely have another reward, so that is enough. How can everything go well and be perfect?" Ye Mingsen talked eloquently.

The implication is to persuade Guo Yaoshi to "accept as soon as you see it".In the matter of life, it is not ordinary people that everything goes well.

"Cough, it's time for you to learn to say these flattering words. What meritorious service? It's all thanks to His Majesty. If it weren't for the emperor's great grace, how could I be where I am today?" Guo Yaoshi shook his head again and again. "I just wish I could drive straight into Baghdad."

The emperor's order is hard to break.
