    "Sure enough, you are the first to finish today. Today's top prize is yours again. You are worthy of having an iron cow." "Haha, that's natural. Let's go have a drink and see those guys. Today we have another  We can only follow us and eat ashes." "If it wasn't easy for you to allocate the place, today's number one would be ours." "Luck is also a part of strength." A bunch of random words came to the messenger's ears, and the messenger asked curiously.  , It turns out that Ye Chang divided the daily tasks into groups, and each of his troops was responsible for them. Whichever group can get the first place will be rewarded.  Although the reward was not much, it was just right to arouse the victorious spirit of these sergeants. The messenger was a sensible person and nodded secretly upon hearing this.  If there are too many rewards, soldiers will only want to win awards and no longer want to go to the front line to fight for their lives. If there are too few rewards, it will not have an motivating effect.  Before he could ask any more questions, he heard the person reporting inside come back, and Ye Chang called him in to meet him.  When Ye Chang saw him, he couldn't help but laugh: "Lin Xizhu, since you are here, do you want to come to Brother Qin to get things done?" "I have met Ye Langjun, and what he said is true. The master of the house has returned.  Chengdu, everything you want is already on the way." "That's good, that's good You have come a long way, so go and rest first." Ye Chang smiled.  "Can these businessmen really make it happen?" Cai Ming still had some doubts behind his back.  The so-called building of a city started with building roads. He assisted Li Bai and learned a lot in just twenty days for this matter.  "Don't worry, Ye Shiyi said in "The Wealth of Nations" that merchants pursue profits. As long as there are enough benefits, at some point, they will be more effective than the government and the court." Li Bai said.  Li Bai's family was a merchant, and his father even went to Suiye City in pursuit of profit. He was very familiar with the temperament of these merchants.  Cai Ming murmured in his heart again, always feeling a little doubtful.  Ye Chang was not prepared to go into details, but at this moment, someone outside reported: "Ambassador, there is an urgent military situation ahead." "Urgent military situation?" Shanzhi and Wang Yanger, who were originally a little bored in the camp, suddenly became energetic: "  There's a war going on." "Let him come in," Ye Chang said.  As expected by Shanzhi and Wang Yanger, this urgent military situation came from Erhai.  Ye Chang himself was here and ordered Wang Tianyun to lead 10,000 troops to approach Erhai. Now the army has reached Zongzhou and is very close to Erhai.  "Who are you?" Following the messenger, there was a strong man in Han clothes. When the man came to Ye Chang, Ye Chang didn't recognize him and asked.  "A certain king returned to the Tang Dynasty, so he was the grandson of the governor of Hedong Prefecture and the founding son of Xinchang County. Prince Renqiu Gong was the grandson of a certain king. He was also the governor of Hedong Prefecture and asked the court to establish Yao Prefecture." The man cried loudly and bowed down in salute.  : "Since Nanzhao merged with Six Zhaos, Hedong Prefecture has not seen officials from the Celestial Dynasty for a long time. My father's heart was towards the Tang Dynasty, so he named the villain Wang Guitang. How lucky to see the ambassador today." Ye Chang's expression  A move.  Before coming to Yunnan, he had done some research on the situation in Yunnan and knew that although Wang Renqiu was a barbarian, his ancestors were actually Han people, a so-called white barbarian. He really had his heart set on the Tang Dynasty, including his son Wang Shanbao, who was once in Chang'an.  For Su Wei.  "It turns out he is the grandson of Shanbao Gong. He is a loyal minister of the Tang Dynasty." He quickly stepped forward and helped Wang Guitang up: "Wang Lashi, you have suffered so much in these years, I came too late." Wang Guitang was really in tears.  Flow all over face.  Since the rise of Nanzhao, it has expanded day by day. Hedong Prefecture is located southeast of Erhai Lake. Nanzhao, together with the other five imperial edicts, will point its finger here.  From then on, people like the Wang family who were committed to the Tang Dynasty were in a difficult situation, and Li Longji suppressed the Wang family and others for his strategy of supporting Nanzhao against the Quanrong.  Now that Nanzhao has finally exposed its wild ambitions, for the Wang family, it means that they have finally come forward after years of hardship.  "Ambassador, we Yunnan barbarians hope for the rain just like we hope for the rain after a long drought. We also ask the ambassador to march westward with the heavenly troops to save all the people from the fire and water."  "That's why." Ye Chang was righteous and awe-inspiring: "Today, with the help of the king's governor, our army has become more powerful. It is expected that the day when the culprit will be bound and sacrificed as a prisoner is just around the corner." Hearing what he said, Wang Guitang felt happy in his heart, and he thought about it.  , Although Ye Chang calls himself the governor, in fact he does not have many soldiers in his hands, and he once bent down to serve Luo Feng. If he cannot make some achievements, he may not be able to sit safely as the governor.  Seeing that Ambassador Ye was preparing to build a city in Nanze, Yunnan, he was clearly planning to stay here for a long time. That being the case "Ambassador, the rebellion in Nanzhao is enough to prove that if the Tang Dynasty did not have prefectures and counties in Yunnan, the rebellious officials and traitors would not be able to survive."  Jueyi asked the ambassador to report to the imperial court, change the control to direct jurisdiction, and establish Yunnan Road to govern it." His words were indeed in line with Ye Chang's wishes.  There have long been calls for the establishment of counties and counties in Yunnan and direct management by officials appointed by the imperial court, but there are also advocates.The representative of the voices of abandoning Yunnan and even southern Jiannan and retreating to northern Sichuan was Zhang Jianzhi, the prime minister at the time of Empress Wu.  The fundamental reason is that the princes of the dynasty could not see what these barbaric lands could provide to the Tang Dynasty. On the contrary, they would involve a lot of manpower and material resources of the Tang Dynasty.  Ye Chang came here this time to change this idea and turn Yunnan, which everyone regarded as a dangerous road, into a treasure house of China.  "This memorial, please ask the king to be the governor. I will attach it to you." Ye Chang said with a smile: "The king has been loyal and loyal for generations, and he is devoted to the country. I will definitely ask for the title of governor." "Thank you, thank you very much Ambassador" Wang Gui Tang bowed.  After thanking the ambassador, Wang Guitang remembered something again and said solemnly: "In addition to meeting the ambassador to express his loyalty, Beizhi also has one more thing to do. As far as Beizi knows, the Quanrong reinforcements have already left Tiejiao City.  , after passing Jianchuan City, we are only five days away from Taihe City." Ye Chang was refreshed: "Who is leading the army, and what is the strength of the army?" "The leader is Ruozan, and the vanguard is the military envoy of Shenchuan.  "On Qiliyu, the strength is said to be 50,000." When Wang Guitang said this, he was a little worried: "I wonder when the follow-up troops of the Tang Dynasty Heavenly Army will arrive?"  "About ten days." Ye Chang said with a smile: "Since the Quanrong reinforcements have arrived, I have to stop here temporarily. Brother Taibai and Brother Zhihua, you two have to work harder. I will leave a thousand troops with you."  Bring the nearby natives, both Han and barbarian, to work together to build the city of Yunnan first. "Don't worry, Anning City could have been built back then, let alone Yunnan now." Anning City was built decades ago in order to strengthen the control of Yunnan.  The city built under control was located in the west of Nanze in Yunnan. Zhangchou Jianqiong once built the Butou Road from Anning to Butou, which caused the rebellion of the local Cuan family. The Cuan family destroyed Anning City and gave Nanzhao the opportunity to intervene in Yunnan.  In the name of Nanze River Basin, Nanzhao extended its power to this area in the name of fighting against the rebels for the Tang Dynasty.  Li Bai took Anning City as an example, which was actually a bit unlucky. Ye Chang didn't care about this, but Cai Ming frowned.  "Although Taibai has the reputation of banishing immortals, he is an arrogant man, so his words are not careful. Ambassador Ye is supervising the army forward. I must be careful to comfort the rear for him, so as not to make Li Taibai make mistakes." He thought in his mind.  Wang Guitang was thinking about something else.  The reason why Ge Luofeng made up his mind to invite Quan Rong to help was because Ye Chang built Yunnan City and made it clear that he wanted to fight a long-term war.  When Zhangchou Jianqiong built the Butou Road, it aroused opposition from the local barbarians. However, after more than ten years of Nanzhao's rule, most of the local barbarians were slaughtered by Nanzhao, and most of the remaining people were respectful. Therefore, Ye Chang  Not only did no one oppose the construction of the city, but it also attracted many barbarians who were bullied by Nanzhao to come and rely on them.  Seeing this, Ge Luofeng knew that he could not compete with the Tang Dynasty. If Yunnan City was really successful, the Tang army with a solid rear could kill him alive. Therefore, Yu Jian led the dog soldiers here with the intention of fighting quickly.  Under such circumstances, if Wang Guitang is replaced and the enemy is outnumbered, we must recall Wang Tianyun and retreat to Quguan, maybe even to Longhe City.  But Ye Chang's tone just now was that he not only refused to retreat, but also wanted to attack forward Could he be so confident that he could fight decisively with the Quanrong and Nanzhao coalition forces with the few troops he had?  Although the Quan-Rong-Nanzhao coalition forces did not have one hundred thousand, they still had eighty thousand, and Ye Chang had less than half of the troops in his hands. It would be difficult to win.  While he was thinking about it, Ye Chang turned to him again with a solemn expression: "Prince Wang, you have come so far to work hard. I should ask you to take a break. But now that the military situation is urgent, there is another matter that must be your responsibility. I hope you will not say goodbye."  Work hard and run for me." "Please give me the ambassador's orders. I will go all out when I return to Tang Dynasty." "There are two kinds of barbarians, black and white. Nanzhao is black barbarian. It bullies white barbarians and is cruel and unkind. After I arrived in Yunnan, I heard his brutal orders.  People pointed out that before, Nanzhao was powerful, so the Baiman dared to be angry but did not dare to speak out. Now that the Heavenly Army of the Tang Dynasty has arrived, the Baiman will be so evil. "Ye Chang said calmly: "The governor is from the Baiman family and has always been among the barbarians.  If I have prestige, I also ask the governor to work for me and invite all the barbarians to send troops to help me in the Tang Dynasty." This is not a good job. Although Baiman is somewhat dissatisfied with Wuman, the current situation is hard to see, and no one knows  Who will be the master of Yunnan in the future?  Barbarians are not fools. Everyone prefers to wait and see rather than choose sides immediately.  King Xiang returned to the Tang Dynasty. If Wang Tianyun hadn't arrived in Hedong Prefecture and the main force of Nanzhao had retreated to Longwei Pass, he would have waited and watched.  "Whatever, if Wang Prefect feels any difficulty, you can tell me, and we will think of ways to solve this problem together." Ye Chang said slowly.  Wang Guitang's heart trembled slightly, and his expression became a little unnatural.  As far as he knew, Ye Chang captured nearly 5,000 barbarians in the previous two battles. These barbarians are now doing hard labor in various dangerous places. For example, they were driven by Tang soldiers to build cities and build roads, and they were not directly executed.  In general, Ambassador Ye seemed to be a "soft-hearted" person, but Wang Guitang knew very well what would happen if those seemingly soft-hearted people did cruel things.  "This there is no problem" "That's good, the Tang Dynasty is a country of etiquette, and the Tang army is a teacher of benevolence and righteousness.Fighting with soldiers is our consistent position.  "Ye Chang said: "Since there is no problem with the governor Wang, please go ahead and march for meI will break camp and set off in half a day." It is a five-day journey from Hedong Prefecture to Yunnan City. Therefore, I arrived at Ye Chang almost at Wang Guitang.  At the same time in the military camp, Quanrong General Lun Qiliyu's soldiers and horses have arrived at Longshou Pass. "This is Longshou Pass, which is a dangerous place. Haha, Piro Pavilion is helping Tang Man fight with us.  I just didn't expect that today, his son would invite us to enter this pass." Looking up at the turret at the critical moment, Lun Qiliyu burst out laughing, and all the Quanrong generals next to him laughed with unspeakable joy.  After waiting for the discussion, Qili Yu laughed and said in a low voice: "Jiang Territory (Nanzhao) is rich, although it is not as rich as the Tang Dynasty, it is still quite impressive.  It is our country's custom that generals are away and can do their own thing. Why doesn't the ambassador go to Nanzhao to offer Zanpu?  "Destroy the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty first, and then take the Jiang territory." Lun Qiliyu said with sarcasm, "Piroge's son is unworthy. He doesn't have any skills, but he dares to betray the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty is cowardly and has no intention to deal with this piece of fat meat.  "We, Zanpu, are brave. Since we have such an opportunity, how can we let it go?" "The ambassador does not know that this Ge Luofeng is not the son of Piro Ge." The general was familiar with the inside story of Nanzhao and said with a smile.  When the Tang Dynasty asked Piluo Ge to hand over his hostage, he did not want to go with his own son, so he chose Geluo Feng as his heir and sent him to Chang'an for a period of time." "In this way, Piluo Ge himself also harbored evil intentions" On  A cold light flashed in Qiliyu's eyes: "Nanzhao is just a grassroots. This kind of country cannot be trusted. If there is a chance, I should take it for Zanpu." Just as he was talking, the gate of Longshou Pass in front opened and came out.  A group of people came out and the door was immediately closed.  Lun Qiliyu's face suddenly darkened. The gate was closed tightly, and only dozens of horses were sent to greet them. It was obvious that he wanted to keep them out.  "Who is Ambassador Lun Qili Yu?" one of the visitors from Nanzhao asked proudly.  This man is dressed as a Han Chinese, his eyes are shining, and his appearance does not look like a barbarian.  Lun Qiliyu snorted, raised his chin, and the generals around him immediately stepped forward and shouted fiercely: "Who are you, who didn't bow to my ambassador when he saw me?" "A certain Yunnan official, Jiang Ruzhi, who joined the army, came to greet me on the order of the king.  "Ambassador." The man heard the question, got off his horse, and bowed in front of Lun Qiliyu: "It turns out that the general is Ambassador Lun Qiliyu. He is really majestic and quite different from others." "Is there no one left in Jiangyu?"  , actually sent a Tang people to greet me. Tang people have no other skills except bragging and flattering. I think if Jiang Yu uses Tang people, the country will be destroyed. No wonder he will ask us for help." On Qili Yu, a person next to him was gloomy.  typical.  Jiang Ruzhi glanced at this person and said with a smile: "Although I am from the Tang Dynasty, I don't know how to brag and flatter others. I only know the truth - the general has arrived just in time. The Tang army has already captured Hedong Prefecture, just outside Longwei Pass. The general is here.  Just in time to attack the Tang army with our army. "Our army came from afar and went to the pass to rest for a while." Lun Qiliyu said with an expressionless face: "What is the purpose of waiting in seclusion?" "The people in the pass are timid.  Having seen the world, I am afraid that I will be frightened by the general's tiger and wolf troops, which will harm the reputation of Zanpu's benevolence." Jiang Ruzhi smiled and said: "It is indeed hard for the general to come from afar, but I have already prepared the military camp for the general, and I will reward him as soon as possible.  Everything is ready and in the camp. Please come with me, general."
