Chapter 376

A few days later, Qin mubai, who was a light soldier, led his troops to the capital of Lanzhou. Eighty miles away from the city of Lanzhou, a large group of people appeared in front of the city. A closer look shows that it's Tang Jun.

It turned out that it was Xue Wanjun, the acting governor of Lanzhou, who came to meet the troops.

Qin mubai held his army and horse in charge of the flag, and Xue Wanjun and others had dismounted. They stood beside the road with a group of officials, such as Lanzhou governor Xiao Liang, and bowed their hands to the road -

"Xue Wanjun, governor of Shanzhou!"

"Xiao Liang, governor of Lanzhou!"

"Xue wanche, governor of Liangzhou!"

"Lead all the generals under the governor's office of Lanzhou to welcome young commander Qin!"

There were about two or three thousand cavalry behind them. They dismounted and saluted together. They agreed in unison: "welcome, young commander!"

Qin mubai was at a loss for a moment. In the past, they used to call themselves "little general", which is a new name for young commander. What's more, I just went back to the capital and then returned to Lanzhou. I didn't have to go out of the country 80 Li and set up three thousand military formations to meet each other.

It's a little too much.

"You are too polite. I hate Qin." Qin mubai immediately dismounted to return the salute and said, "two generals, Xiao Cishi, Qin is just the fourth grade driver of Lanzhou governor's office, and the rank of official rank is still behind you. How dare you greet each other with such a big salute? If you come to meet King Jiangxia and Princess Wencheng, I'm afraid you will be disappointed. Their team is still far behind. It is estimated that we have just started from Chang'an. "

Xue Wanjun and others looked at each other and laughed and said: "young commander, we naturally have our reason to do this. It's the father and daughter of Jiangxia king. At most, we welcome them in the city. We don't have to go out of the country to meet them. Because young commander Qin is the new leader of Lanzhou, we have to do so. "

"Oh, how do you say that?" Qin mubai asked in surprise.

Xiao Liang came forward with an official in green. The Qingyi official held out a delicate brocade box, handed it to Qin mubai with both hands, and said, "young commander Qin, before you arrive in Lanzhou. The imperial court sent a despicable horse to Lanzhou first and issued an imperial edict, appointing you as governor of Lanzhou! Therefore, from now on, you are the new owner of Lanzhou. "

"Oh? What about my father? " Qin mubai was surprised again.

"Why don't you ask the angel to read the edict, young commander?" Xue Wanjun and others said with a smile.

"Please

So the official in green read out the edict.

It turned out that the imperial court issued an order to appoint Qin Shubao, the governor of Lanzhou, as the "general manager of guanxi Daoxing army" and the "guard of Anxi Dadu", to take charge of the administrative and military power of Hexi Guanlong, and to manage the western regions. After Qin mubai arrived in Lanzhou, he took over the post of governor of Lanzhou. He was in charge of all the military and political affairs under the rule of Lanzhou, and was granted the history of the commander of the army under the command of the "general manager of guanxi Daoxing military university", that is, the military adviser and staff officer.

The "way" of guanxi Road, which is used for military affairs, is different from the "way of Jiangnan" divided by geographical administrative regions. The former almost means "military region". It is often named after the place where the military region is located. It means "guanxi road". Theoretically speaking, it refers to a large area to the west of guanxi. This official position is quite large, almost equivalent to holding up half of the Tang Dynasty. In a narrow sense, it refers to the Guanlong area and the western regions to the west of the Yellow River.

The general manager of guanxi Daoxing army is the commander-in-chief of all the troops and horses of Tang Dynasty in Guanlong and western regions.

In addition, the important figures under the former governor's office of Lanzhou had their own new amnesty and mission. Xue Wanjun is the commander in chief of the march of xihaidao (Hexi and Qinghai Lake area) and commander in chief of Shanzhou military administration and dafeichuan military region; Xue wanche is the commander in chief of the march of yuliangdao (Lanzhou to Yumenguan area) and commander in chief of Liangzhou military administration and commander in chief of qishanlian to Yumenguan military region. Xiao Liang, the former governor of Lanzhou, also served as the Governor General of Lanzhou left by Qin mubai, assisting Qin mubai in dealing with the people's livelihood and government affairs under the governor general; Su dingfang, who was coming to Lanzhou, was appointed as the chief of the Governor General of Lanzhou, with the military staff of the governor general.

In this way, Qin Shubao was promoted to a higher rank, and became the leader of Li Ji. He took charge of half of the land west of the Yellow River in the Tang Dynasty, and was in charge of more than 100000 troops. Qin mubai, Xue Wanjun and others became the commander of the military division under Qin Shubao. At the same time, Qin mubai was also in charge of the administrative power of Lanzhou.

In this way, Qin mubai is indeed the "new master of Lanzhou"!

After receiving the imperial edict, Qin mubai was not in a hurry to be happy. Instead, he asked, "what does it mean that the imperial court appointed my father as the guardian of Anxi Dadu?"

Xue Wanjun stepped forward and replied, "after Gao Chang's surrender, the commander presented his victory to the imperial court. The imperial court ordered the commander-in-chief to set up two prefectures in Gaochang's hometown, namely, Xizhou and Tingzhou, which were divided into prefectures and counties to govern the military towns, and set up Anxi Dadu Prefecture in Tingzhou to command the military and political power of Helong and the western regions. In this way, the governor's office of Lanzhou is under the control of the governor's office of Anxi. "

Qin Mu Bai twisted his brow and said, "is it necessary to set up an Xi Dadu Prefecture? At present, this is not a dream! After all kinds of bloody battles, they defeated the alliance of Tubo and Gaochang. Although we won, we still won miserably. The power of the Tang Dynasty to the west of Yumen pass is not enough to set up a garrison to govern the western regions. It can even be said that the Tang Dynasty has no foothold there! Tubo was defeated, but it's hard to know if it will make a comeback. Qu Zhisheng is down, but Gaochang state in addition to their Qu family, there are three other Gaochang kingdom. It was only after the four countries had pacified one country, and they were not satisfied with each other. How could they set up the Duhufu? The power of the Tang Dynasty in the western regions has just sprouted. Now is actually the most sensitive and dangerous period! It's just a tragic victory. I don't know what those people in the court thinkSeeing that Qin mubai was not only unhappy but also angry, people could not help but make mistakes one after another. Xue Wanjun looked around and said in a soft voice, "young commander, calm down. How about going back to the governor's office to talk? "

Qin mubai, with a cold smile, said to the messenger in green, "to tell you the truth, whose idea is this intention from?"

"Well I'm just a petty official in Hongwen hall. I don't know the details. " The officials in green are cautious.

Qin Mu Bai narrowed his eyes and said: "is it changsun Wuji's bad idea?"

They listened to the word "Chang Sun Wu Ji" in Qin Mu Bai's mouth, and they were quite disdained. They changed color and were silent.

The official in Tsing Yi was stunned for a moment.

Xue wanche gave a deep drink: "our young commander is asking you something, say it!"

"Yes It's situ's intention

Qin Mu nodded: "sure. You come back to Lanzhou with me to have a rest for two days. I will treat you well. When you return to Chang'an, you will convey to Chang sun Wuji what I said just now. He told him that I knew exactly what he was going to do. You can reassure him that the Qin family's heart is in the country and their ambition is in the country. They don't have time to talk nonsense with him and fight their hearts and minds! "

Now, even Xue Wanjun changed his face and said, "young commander, why did you say that? Did you turn your face with Chang sun Wuji when you returned to Beijing this time?" In this case, it's better to be cautious - you, listen! Don't pass a word back! Otherwise, I'll know another day and cut off your bird's head! "

"Ah Officials in Tsing Yi took two steps back.

"Don't scare him." Qin mubai waved his hand and motioned Xue Wanjun to step back. He went forward and said, "you are just an errand messenger. You can help me convey what I say. Don't use vague words, and don't embellish them. Do you understand? "

"I see."

"OK, back to Lanzhou!"

Qin mubai turned over and got on the horse. Xue Wanjun and others were full of suspicions and didn't ask much, so they got on the horse one after another and returned to Lanzhou together with the army led by Qin mubai.

Under the leadership of Xue Rengui and Yuwen Hongtai, Qin Shubao, the former pro Xun soldiers of Yifu in Lanzhou Military Region, went to the western regions with Qin Shubao. This time, the ten thousand elite Yue Qi that Qin mubai brought with him just happened to set up a new Yi family. So the seven thousand cavalry who came with Qin mubai first settled in the city and lived in the original Yifu barracks.

After many years in the army, Qin mubai finally had a real soldier of his own. He appointed the old hundred cavalry guards as general and general to assist him in commanding and training the troops. Himself, is to live in the original father's house, instead, became the new owner of Lanzhou.

As soon as he arrived in Lanzhou, he received the imperial edict of promotion. In other people's eyes, Qin mubai should be happy. However, he became angry in public, which made Xue Wanjun and others confused.

Qin mubai couldn't talk to them, and they didn't dare to ask. Seeing that the young commander was in a bad mood, he was very angry, so the originally scheduled Jiefeng dust washing banquet was just enough.

Lanzhou had no owner for many days. Xue Wanjun, the acting governor, spent most of his time dealing with the military and political affairs in dafichuan. As a result, there is a backlog of military and political affairs to be dealt with in Dadu Prefecture. Therefore, for several days, Qin mubai was very busy. With the help of Xiao Liang and others, he finally managed to deal with the administrative work of people's livelihood.

In terms of military affairs, Xue Wanjun is in charge of the army in dafichuan, and there are big guns in red. The Tibetan people are as safe as a rock and dare not move forward. There are few things to do. The trouble is the military exchange in Ganliang. Xue wanche was in charge of the matter, but the move was slow due to the tedious work.

Xue wanche, commander in chief of Liangzhou, is a good fighter. When he does these trivial things, he feels troublesome. He's the first two and can't keep busy all day. Qin mubai had to personally supervise the daily interrogation, and put the work focus of Dadu governor's office in Ganliang area.

Fortunately, Xue wanche knew something about it, and after receiving the imperial edict from Li Zhi entrusted by Qin mubai. For the first time, troops were stationed at Yumen pass and Yangguan pass, and garrisoned at puchanghai. They echoed Qin Shubao's headquarters far away in Gaochang, forming a line, so that they no longer floated overseas like a broken kite.

A snake can't fly without its head.

With a new owner in Lanzhou, everything gradually returned to normal. After Pu Changhai's great victory (Lanzhou people used to call it "loutai great victory"), the tense situation inside Lanzhou also tended to ease. The businessmen who had been detained here were released one after another, and the business travel was finally able to circulate. And more active than ever.

In fact, the more war, the higher the price and the more profitable it is.

After a period of tension and repression, Lanzhou douran burst out with terrible vitality, business travel like flow, people's passion, and more prosperous than ever before.

Often, after the war, the people are more eager for peace and tranquility, and they are more passionate about living and making progress.

Maybe that's why it's often a country in troubled times. The reason why "great governance" can always be realized at the beginning of the founding of the people's Republic of China is that people's mind is determined.

In just ten days after Qin mubai's return to Lanzhou, Guanlong was reborn and prosperous.But Qin mubai knew that the "big event" he was really waiting for had just begun.

On this day, the half monthly meeting of important ministers of the metropolitan government was about to be held. Of course, Qin mubai presided over it. Xue brothers, Xiao Liang and others are here.

Qin mubai left a heart to watch the list of comers counted by the door officials. All the people who should come came, but only one person was missing -

Liangzhou Sima. Hou Junji.

On that day, Hou Junji was not seen in the procession where the officials went out to meet each other.

Qin mubai did not make any noise, but finished the meeting according to the original plan and discussed some important military and political affairs. After the meeting, he asked Xue wanche to stay and asked him why Hou Junji didn't come to the meeting.

Xue wanche looked embarrassed, shook his head and said, "I knew that the young commander would ask about him."

"What happened to him?" Qin mubai asked.

"Ah!..." Xue wanche sighed and said. "The young commander probably knew more about him than we did. He was in Chang'an at that time, wasn't he?"

"Well, I know about Chang'an. What I asked was, "what happened after he came to Liangzhou?" Qin mubai asked.

"From the day he arrived in Liangzhou, he never wore an official robe or cared about political affairs for a day. I don't want to go home every night. Gambling and whoring are notorious. " Xue wanche shook his head and tut tut said, "how can we not make people feel sorry for the great founding fathers and veteran generals who have been reduced to such a field today?"

Qin Mu Bai twisted his brow and said, "can he break the jar? It's a bit out of my expectation. Hou Junji is a veteran of my father's generation. If we really talk about the senior and famous people, Hou Junji's position after the founding of the people's Republic is far higher than my father's. He came out of the gate of Duke Wei with me, so I can count. My elder martial brother again. However, I don't know him very well. I just heard some legends about him. All in all, he's not the kind of person who's giving up on himself. "

Xue wanche hesitated for a moment, and then stopped.

"If you want to say something, just say it. Don't be vague." Qin mubai said.

"Well..." Xue wanche nodded and said, "everyone knows. Hou Junji was defeated in the party struggle of the imperial court, and was demoted by the eldest sun Wuji under the pretext of the crown prince. Sima, who doesn't know that Sima in the state and city, especially in our frontier town, is just an official position for leisure? ——Hou Junji, I'm afraid it's hard to turn over in this life. I'm glad to have a useful body. I guess he should have done it on purpose for the people above the court. So that they can let go of themselves and not kill them all, so that they can save their lives. "

Qin Mu white eyes in front of a bright, said: "you mean, Hou Junji this is to hide his talent?"

"Isn't it?" Xue wanche asked in reply and said, "originally, it was impossible for a prince like Hou Junji to escape the axe of changsun Wuji. Now that he has escaped to death, it is mostly the emperor's benefaction. If not, he would have died many times. Now when he was demoted to Liangzhou, how dare he show his edge again? Of course, he can only muddle through and confuse the public. If not, Chang sun Wuji thinks that he still has ambition and threat. What should he do? "

"It makes sense." Qin Mu Bai twisted his brows, nodded and said, "but he is such a useful talent that he is wasted in vocal music every day. Is it not my biggest loss? "

Xue wanche was surprised, "young commander, is it Do you want to enable this person? "

"Why not?" Qin mubai said with a smile, "how does Hou Junji compare with your brothers in fighting to kill the enemy?"

"He's not as good as us in charge; we're not as good as him in strategizing." Xue wanche's answer was sincere.

"That's it." Qin mubai said with a smile, "Lanzhou Xinding, just at the time of employing people, he is not such a talent. With whom? Don't forget, not only in war, Hou Junji, who was born in the army, also served as Minister of the Ministry of officials in Chang'an. He abandoned his military and joined the army. I'm sure that I can't be sure of his ability to run the army and the people. General Xue, please arrange it. I want to take a trip to Liangzhou and visit Hou Junji in person. But please don't disturb him in advance. "

"Well Isn't that good? " Xue wanche said, "the young commander is a superior officer. He is a subordinate. How can he condescend to visit and not be welcomed? "

"Well, that's how it's arranged." Qin mubai said with a smile, "just take it as if I should visit my uncle and elder martial brother. It's purely personal, visiting. "

"Good, humble arrangement." Xue wanche answered the promise, still hesitated for a moment and said. "Young commander, there's a garrulous remark in your humble position. I don't know whether to say it or not."

"Say it!" Qin mubai said with a smile, "if you can talk more, it means that at least you care about me. Of course, I'll listen to it."

Xue wanche also laughed and said: "I think Hou Junji was demoted out of Chang'an by changsun Wuji because of the influence of the prince case. Chang sun Wuji regarded him as a thorn in the eye, but if the emperor's affection and his past contributions were hindered, I'm afraid it would have been removed soon. Now, the young commander wants to use Hou Junji. Is that... "

Qin Mu Bai laughed and said, "if Hou Junji had not been banished from the imperial court and demoted to Liangzhou by Chang sun Wuji, I'm afraid I would not have been so interested in using him.""What does that mean?" Xue wanche was shocked and said, "young commander, do you have to run counter to Chang sun Wuji and be the enemy?"

"No Qin mubai said, "think about it, Chang sun Wuji demoted Hou Junji, I use Hou Junji Hou Junji hates Chang sun Wuji to the bone. This is certain. I don't care if he is grateful to me, but I know that he will work hard! In public and private, Hou Junji will unswervingly stand with us. In this way, Lanzhou will have more generals! Isn't that like a tiger adding wings? "

"Young Marshal is wise!" Xue wanche suddenly realized and said. "But is it worthwhile to turn against Chang sun Wuji because of this?"

"I've done it more than once. I'm not afraid to do it again." Qin Mu Bai grinned and said, "everyone can be afraid of changsun Wuji, but I can't be afraid. I won't be afraid! "

"This..." Xue wanche was surprised and suspicious. He was full of fog, and it was not easy to ask more questions.

Qin mubai laughed but said nothing. He said in his heart: if I don't do anything contrary to Chang sun Wuji's wish, how can the emperor see my firm determination? If you are afraid of your hands and feet because of the pressure of Chang sun Wuji, why should I let Li Shimin have confidence in me and Lanzhou?

Hou Junji, Su dingfang, Qin mubai and the three disciples of Duke Wei will join hands in the battle soon!
