    Li Linfu is coming to Longyou, he is really coming!  In order to show respect for his new immediate superior, Du Xixi, the deputy ambassador of Longyou Jiedu, immediately sent messengers to the military garrison after receiving the news that Li Linfu was coming to Longyou to take up his post, and asked the military generals to arrive on the fifth day of June.  We arrived at Huangshui City before to welcome the arrival of Lord Zhongshu Ling, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, and the Jiedu Envoy of Longyou and Hexi Towns!  Du hoped to send the messenger to Fuqi City to inform Tuesday. He specifically emphasized to Tuesday that Governor Du had personally stayed with him, and asked Tuesday to go to Huangshui City no matter what. There was no room for bargaining on this matter.  On Tuesday, I felt sick in my heart, knowing that I couldn¡¯t escape this time.  ¡° If we find an excuse not to go on Tuesday this time, it will be like making it clear that we will not give Li Linfu face, and at the same time, we will offend Du Hope.  There are unwritten rules in the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty. Secretly, political opponents can fight each other to death, but on the surface, they must absolutely abide by the rules of superiority and inferiority.  Li Linfu is now the top commander in command of the troops in Longyou and Hexi towns. As a general of the army, Zhou Chengye cannot act like a filial son and follow Li Linfu openly to confront him.  If you are really so impulsive on Tuesday, it will be like passing the knife handle into Li Linfu's hand. Not only will you die quickly, but it will also be ugly!  After some arrangements, Zhou Chengye asked Lei Wanchun to lead two hundred cavalrymen from the Guards Battalion out of the north gate of Fuqi City and headed straight for Suirong City.  Zhou Chengye himself, under the protection of a hundred elite guards, entered Qinghai Lake from a ferry close to Fuqi City, and took several large wooden boats built just half a year ago to sail towards the east of the lake.  A few days later, a group of people appeared outside Moli City.  The guard at the top of Moli City saw a group of cavalry wearing Tang army uniforms appearing outside the city, and they were coming from the north, so he felt relieved and asked loudly: "Who are the brothers who are coming down from the city?" Among the cavalry under the city  A knight walked out and shouted to the city guard: "I am the personal soldier of General Zhou, the commander of Shenwei Army. I have something important to report to your commander, General Wang. Please report it quickly!" The general on duty may  I had received an explanation from Wang Zhongsi, and I heard that it was someone from the Shenwei Army.  Not daring to neglect, he hurried down to the city in person and ran to Wang Zhongsi's residence in the city.  Not long after, Wang Zhongsi, dressed in military uniform, appeared at the top of the city.  Zhou Chengye is now dressed the same as other guards, and he is hidden among the soldiers in the front row. Outsiders have no idea of ??his whereabouts.  After Wang Zhongsi stood still.  Take a closer look at the city.  His face suddenly changed slightly.  "Open the city gate immediately to welcome the brothers from the Shenwei Army outside the city into the city!" Wang Zhongsi gave the order, and a short while later, Tuesday mixed with the cavalry and entered Moli City.  In the general's mansion, Wang Zhongsi and Zhou Chengye finally met alone.  "Erlang. This is your first time coming to my place! Why are you so low-key, for fear of being seen?" Some time ago, Li Guangbi brought back 5,000 well-trained recruits from Fuqi City, which made Wang Zhongsi very happy, so  I was particularly enthusiastic and kind when I met Tuesday.  Tuesday replied without leaving any trace: "Brother, you must have received the notice from Lord Du, right? I want to go to Huangshui City with you. I just want to be a companion along the way to avoid boredom." How Wang Zhongsi is  Naturally, the character would not be fooled by Tuesday's words. He did not ask any questions and immediately ordered his men to settle down the soldiers who had brought into the city on Tuesday. He himself accompanied Tuesday to visit the defenses in Moli City.  situation and various military camps.  After looking at it on Tuesday, I found that the defense layout of the entire Moli City is quite similar to that of Fuqi City in many places, especially some parts that are currently under construction, which completely refer to the civil construction model of Fuqi City.  Wang Zongsi humbly asked for advice with a sincere look on his face: "Erlang, what do you think of the overall defense structure of my Moli City?" "The overall layout is strict and reasonable, which can basically meet the needs of defense. If I have to find fault, it is in the city.  The total amount of water stored seems to be somewhat insufficient, and the houses near the city wall are slightly less prepared to withstand rockfall and fire prevention" Since Wang Zhongsi asked, he did not hide it on Tuesday.  Then he expressed all his opinions.  Now the two are back-to-back allies, and there is no need to flatter each other. If there are problems, just talk about them, and if there are shortcomings, just talk about shortcomings.  Listen to Tuesday¡¯s comments.  Wang Zhongsi nodded from time to time, not feeling unhappy at all.  Wang Zhongsi said to Zhou Chengye with a grateful face: "The five thousand recruits who were entrusted to Erlang to be trained in Fuqi City this time have strict military discipline. Their quality is beyond my expectation. This is all thanks to Erlang's selflessness and meticulousness!"  " Li Guangbi, who was following the two generals, also said, "During the six months when I was training in Fuqi City, I was cared for and given guidance by General Zhou. I will always remember this kindness!"  Due to limited time, I stayed in Moli City for one day on Tuesday, and the next day I traveled with Wang Zhongsi to Huangshui City, the seat of Shanzhou.  The White Water Army dispatched 500 cavalry to escort Wang Zhongsi, plus the 100 cavalry brought on Tuesday, the total is 600 cavalry.  Such a protective force is enough to protect Wang Zhongsi and Tuesday from getting out of trouble even if they encounter any unexpected situation.  The team galloped all the way east, and Zhou Chengye, who was riding on the horse, finally confessed to Wang Zhongsi about his past with Li Linfu.  After hearing this, Wang Zhongsi frowned for a long time, and then said: "Erlang, listening to what you just said, it seems that you are very afraid of Li Linfu's character?" Zhou Chengye did not shy away and answered directly: "Li Linfu is a careful person and is used to figuring out people's hearts.  He is a sweet-talking guy! If you think he is a kind-hearted elder with a pleasant smile in front of others, then you are totally wrong! " "Brother, listen to my brother's advice, no matter where you are from now on.  No matter how high you are, you must be wary of this person. Be careful that he stabs you in the back when you are careless!" Seeing what Tuesday said was so serious and solemn, Wang Zhongsi was secretly vigilant and remembered Tuesday's reminder.  .  Zhou Chengye said with a melancholy face: "To be honest, brother, I am very wary of Li Linfu going to Longyou in person this time. I am most worried that he will use the huge unchecked power in his hands to deal with me! For example, when the war is fierce and tense, order  Our Shenwei army went out to charge, or stood alone and waited for reinforcements, or dispersed our troops under one name or another, and then gave me some reputation for incompetence in combat." Wang Zhongsi said loudly with an angry look on his face.  If this old man dares to do this to you, I, Wang, will be the first one not to let him go! " "Brother, please don't be impulsive! With our current status and position, we cannot fight against Li Linfu. If our brother is in danger,  We still expect you to lead the army to rescue, but you must not act on your own initiative." Wang Zhongsi understood what Tuesday meant, and said humorously: "I hope Li Linfu can put the overall situation first, after all, he is the leader of the two towns.  The commander of a hundred thousand troops also longs for a great victory. " Speaking of this, the two of them said nothing. In fact, they both knew in their hearts: Even if the Shenwei army was only 20,000 people, even if the entire army was wiped out, they would only have to fight against Tibet.  With a great victory, Li Linfu would still gain great military exploits and prestige, and Zhou Chengye and his 20,000 brothers were the warriors who sacrificed their lives for the Tang Dynasty.  However, the warriors who sacrificed their lives for the country eventually turned into dust and were gradually forgotten by people.  When the worried Zhou and Wang Zhongsi rushed to Huangshui, Li Linfu was still two hundred miles away.  Du Hope, who was already waiting in the city, was a little unhappy when he saw Wang Zhongsi and Zhou Chengye coming hand in hand.  When no one was around, he quietly asked Tuesday: "Didn't I remind you? Keep your distance from Wang Zhongsi and don't let anyone see your relationship!" Tuesday didn't explain much, just said lightly: "  The general knows, and will be more careful and careful in the future." When he said this, Tuesday sneered in his heart. Compared with the safety of himself and the Shenwei Army, whether he deliberately kept a distance from Wang Zhongsi was not important at all!  On the night of the second day, Lei Wanchun's group of troops, who pretended to be Zhou Chengye and marched from the north shore of Qinghai Lake, also arrived at Huangshui City. However, they still had two hundred horses when they left Fuqi City, but when they arrived in Huangshui City, there were only a few hundred horses left.  Ride to a hundred!  Looking at Lei Wanchun and his brothers who were covered in glory on Tuesday, their faces were livid on Tuesday.  "Who did it?" "The opponent came for a sneak attack at night, with three to four hundred horsemen. These people moved very quickly, and their individual force was strong. They were definitely not like grassland horse thieves. They were probably Tibetans who had sneaked in.  The cavalry. Because the enemy was outnumbered, the general did not dare to fight, so he led his brothers to break through the encirclement quickly. The casualties were not heavy at that time. " "What is regrettable is that on the second night, we encountered a second and more difficult group of encirclement.  The attack caused more casualties this time. After we broke through the encirclement, there were less than a hundred people left. Although the final general did not know where these enemy cavalry came from, he was sure that they were different from the first group. It was very likely.  They're Han Chinese!" After listening to Lei Wanchun's report, Tuesday's face became even more ugly.  "There are so many people who want this general's life! I want to see which sons of bitches are hiding behind the scenes!" Tuesday punched the table hard, leaving a deep mark immediately.  Fist seal.  "Thank you and your brothers for your hard work this time! You go to the post house to recover from your injuries first. I will definitely avenge you this time on my behalf!" Not long after Lei Wanchun left, Wang Zhongsi came in quietly.  "Just now I saw your personal bodyguard wearing colors. Did he encounter an accident on the road?" Wang Zhongsi asked with concern on his face.  Zhou Chengye nodded and replied in a low voice: "There were two groups of people setting up an ambush on the way. This time, the group of cavalry led by Lei Wanchun was marching under my banner. It is certain that the enemy who set up the ambush was?I must have gotten a tip beforehand and knew that I would definitely be leaving the city in the next few days!  " "Erlang has always been cautious in doing things. This time he unexpectedly took a boat from Qinghai Lake to the east, but he just avoided the danger.  However, there will definitely be assassinations targeting you in the future, so you must not be careless.  " "Brother, the same goes for you. This time it was targeted at me, but next time maybe someone will target you. Why are we the thorn in the side of the Tibetan people?  "
