I'm a marquis in Datang

What kind of situation will the situation in the Western Regions eventually develop into? "

Gao Shilian gritted his teeth and said, "Du Qi, you can't bear the consequences."

Du Qidao: "I carry the world on my shoulders, and there is nothing I can't bear. On the contrary, you Gao Shilian, who is already old, has come to the Western Regions to make troubles. Why bother?"

Seeing that Du Qi was so rampant, Gao Shilian flicked his sleeves, stood up and said, "Du Qi, let's wait and see."

Du Qi said: "I'll wait and see."

Gao Shilian's face was livid, and he went straight out.But when he walked to the door of the camp, Du Qi suddenly said: "Gao Shilian, I would like to remind you one last thing, once some things are done, the consequences will be unimaginable, and you cannot bear it. The difference between one thought is the difference between heaven and earth. "

Gao Shilian snorted and left with a flick of his sleeves.

Du Qi sneered twice.

The land of the four states in the Western Regions was conquered by him himself, so why should he hand it over to the imperial court?If Li Shimin hadn't promised at the beginning that the conquered territories belonged to Du Qi himself, then that's all.Li Shimin clearly agreed, but now because Du Qi has broken into a world in the Western Regions and is restless, he wants to arrange someone to pick peaches, but Du Qi will never agree.

Du Qi did not hesitate to fight.

After Gao Shilian left, Guo Xiaozheng and Yi Fusheng entered right after.

Guo Xiaozheng said: "Your Highness, how is the situation?"

Du Qidao: "What else can we do? Naturally, we broke up unhappy. Gao Shilian came to summon him to take over the post of Jiedushi of Anxi Dufu. I accepted this edict. But, I said that Gao Shilian's mansion The Yamen can only be set up in Guazhou, and let him go to Guazhou to take up the post. Gao Shilian disagreed, so he rushed back."

Guo Xiaozheng said solemnly: "From this point of view, this battle with Datang is inevitable."

Du Qidao: "This is natural."

War is indeed inevitable, but Du Qi knows better that if he wants to gain a foothold in the Western Regions, and even prevent Li Shimin from thinking about the Western Regions, he must show his sword and let Li Shimin know that the Western Regions are Du Qi's territory.

Only fists can convince people.

Yi Fusheng suddenly said: "Your Highness, I have thought of something."

Du Qidao: "What's the matter?"

Yi Fusheng said: "The next battle is inevitable. But in order to ensure His Highness' righteousness, I think that once Su Dingfang and Hou Junji are killed, we will temporarily avoid their edge and retreat thirty miles to prove our sincerity."

"This is to send some signals to the princes of the court, indicating that His Highness has no intention of making an enemy of Datang. After we retreated [-] miles, we used gunpowder, mines, and grenades to join the battle. In the first battle, the [-] to [-] troops of Datang were completely wiped out. , Destroy the morale of the Tang army."

"When the news of Hou Junji's defeat spreads to the Tang court, it is likely to cause an uproar. At that time, because His Highness is the first to back down, there may be people in the court who are not willing to fight to support His Highness."

Yi Fusheng talked eloquently: "As long as there are people who support His Highness, the emperor will have a chance to step down, and it is very likely that the targeting of the Western Regions will be nothing. Of course, if the emperor insists on going to war, that's another matter. In short, we will prepare Work is arranged."

Du Qidao: "You don't know Li Shimin."

Yi Fusheng said, "What do you think, Your Highness?"

Du Qidao: "Yi Canjun's suggestion is good. We must retreat. However, after we retreat and use new weapons to win the victory, the emperor will not stop. He will definitely send troops to kill again. Li Shimin is different from ordinary emperors. , is the master of great promise, and we are facing a bigger battle."

Yi Fusheng frowned and said, "It's really come to that point, I'm afraid the situation is not good for us! Especially His Highness's father, Du Xiang, will it be affected?"

Du Qidao: "It won't be affected. Li Shimin is a promising leader anyway. Li Shimin won't do the thing of breaking his own arm. At most, it will make my father gradually stay away from the center. In short, we don't have to think about it."

Only then did Yi Fusheng nod his head.

Du Qi continued: "This battle did not take place in a short period of time, but a long-term fierce battle. It is precisely because of this that all the shops before this will buy food in large quantities. There is enough food, enough weapons, enough for us Support till the end."

Yi Fusheng said: "Your Highness is wise."

Chapter 817 Confrontation

Confrontation

Gao Shilian left angrily, his mind was full of Du Qi's words, and Du Qi's threats to him, saying that he could not bear the responsibility of starting a war.As an official who personally participated in the debate in the hall, Gao Shilian knew that the officials in the court were afraid of Du Qi, and also knew that the emperor was somewhat dissatisfied with Du Qi.

Even though Du Qi once made great achievements and made great contributions to the emperor, but now Du Qi has touched the emperor's bottom line, so Du Qi is still so arrogant, in Gao Shilian's view, he is ignorant of current affairs.

Gao Shilian returned to the barracks full of anger in the wind and snow.As soon as he entered the tent of the Chinese army, Hou Junji couldn't wait to ask, "How is the situation, Gao Jiedu?"

Gao Shilian said: "Du Qi has accepted the order."

Hou Junji replied with a sigh, but he was a little disappointed.Hou Junji came this time because he was planning to make meritorious service in the Western Regions.Du Qi directly accepted the will, tantamount to confessing directly.

Coward!

Hou Junji was very disdainful in his heart.

When Hou Junji complained about himself, Gao Shilian sat down and continued: "Although Du Qi accepted the order, but Du Qi said,

The government office of the Jiedushi of Anxi Dufu was established in Guazhou, not in Yizhou and other places in the Western Region. "

Hou Junji stood up abruptly and became excited all at once.He bent slightly, slapped his palm on the desk in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "Gao Jiedushi, how can this be done. The government office of the Jiedushi of Anxi Governor's Mansion must be in Yizhou. Even if there is no establishment In Yizhou, the more you want to be in Qiuci, Yanqi and other places. Could it be that you agreed to Du Qi?"

Gao Shilian snorted, and said in a deep voice, "General Hou, do you think I agreed?"

Only then did Hou Junji carefully observe Gao Shilian's expression.

A look of anger.

Even, it gives people the feeling that the storm is about to come.

Hou Junji smiled lightly, but his heart relaxed: "Gao Jiedushi, you don't want to be a secret. You go to pass the decree, what is Du Qi's attitude? You are so secretive, it makes me feel very nervous ,Very uncomfortable."

Su Dingfang sat in the main seat, sighing inwardly.

Du Qi really refused.

Although Du Qi accepted the order to allow Gao Shilian to work in Guazhou, it was a tactful refusal.Such a result indicates that the Western Regions will be unstable in the future.

Su Dingfang didn't speak, he still listened quietly.Whether it is Gao Shilian or Hou Junji, they are more important than his official position.

Waiting for him, even playing for Li Shimin earlier than him.

Su Dingfang's only advantage is serving as the governor of Guazhou, and he is not superior in other aspects.

Gao Shilian said in a deep voice: "Du Qi, this son, really has a traitor in his head, he is a traitor. I told him clearly that the government office of the Anxi Dufu Jiedushi must be set up in Yizhou."

"However, guess what he said. He said that he wanted me to ask if the [-] troops under his command would agree or not. Listen, what are these words? Du Qi is clearly a threat, and he does not agree with the imperial court taking control of the Western Regions. "

"Especially when I was leaving, Du Qi threatened me, telling me to be careful, saying that I couldn't take responsibility. Du Qi's words showed his wolfish ambition. His Majesty regarded Du Qi so highly, and he was granted the title of King Pingxi. He gave him all kinds of preferential treatment. In the end, what Du Qi did was too disappointing."

Gao Shilian was full of anger.

In his life, he had a relatively good life, and he had never been humiliated like this.

Hou Junji smiled when he heard it.
