    "Is this Talos?" Wei Boyu lay on a rock, panting, looking towards the south.  The guide was already extremely tired and nodded: "Talas, Talas" Wei Boyu felt like tears were about to flow out. He finally saw Talas. The past seven days had simply passed by.  A mountain of swords and a sea of ??fire made his life worse than death.  Mountains, ice and snow, deserts, mosquitoes, thirst, and hunger. In these seven days, their small team of less than a thousand people overcame many difficulties.  These difficulties were something he had never thought of, and being able to persevere was something he never expected.  There were 1,000 people when we set out, but now there were only about 810 people left. Without a single battle, nearly 200 people were reduced due to various difficulties.  During this process, Wei Boyu thought more than once that he should give up and at most go back to being his unknown general and not be taken seriously by others, but he was not willing to accept it: Ye Chang told him that if he could complete  With this task, he and his people will be famous in history, no less than Ban Chao and Chen Tang. Relying on this alone cannot support them through such a difficult journey, and Ye Chang's promise: no matter success or failure, no matter alive or  After death, they and their families will receive a sixty-year annuity from the Andong Chamber of Commerce, which will not be less than 30 yuan per year - not much money, but for some people, it is enough to sell themselves  life.  "One life, not to mention thirty strings a year, ten strings or twenty strings a year, is enough for some people to sacrifice their lives."  And now, the goal of his trip, Talas City, is right in front of him.  Being here means that no matter whether they can capture Talas or not, their annual annuity of thirty pounds will not be less.  Wei Boyu believed in Ye Chang's promise. Ye Zhongcheng had just arrived in Anxi and used two heads to prove that he was a true believer.  For this kind of person, it's best to believe in his promises.  After breathing for a long time, Wei Boyu felt that his strength had recovered a little. Wei Boyu raised the telescope hanging around his neck and began to observe the situation in the city.  Telescopes are a good thing. Because Ye Chang deliberately kept them secret, they are still rare in number until now. They are a weapon for him when he is marching.  Wei Boyu's expedition was extremely risky this time, so Ye Changcai gave him a telescope.  "The flag of the Stone Kingdom is still on top of the city. The military camp outside is very large, but there are no people moving There are many flags, it seems that all the countries in the river have them It seems that Ye Zhongcheng did not attack, or he is a cannibal.  Either he fell into the trap, or" Wei Boyu's heart skipped a beat. If he had followed Ye Chang's plan, the Tang army should have won by now, counterattacked to the gates of Talas City, and even captured Talas. But now it's very quiet here.  It proved that Ye Chang did not call.  There are two possibilities. One is that Ye Chang gave up the plan, and the other is that Ye Chang was defeated. No matter which possibility it is, it means that his mission on this trip has failed.  He murmured a curse, feeling uneasy in his heart. If Ye Chang's entire army was defeated, wouldn't their small force that went deep behind enemy lines have to go back the same way?  If this is the case, the problem will be huge. After going more than a hundred miles into the enemy's territory without any rest, their physical strength will not be able to support them back.  "If any accident occurs, I grant you arbitrary power. You can decide what to do. Boyu, as a general, the most important thing is to adapt. We cannot consider everything perfectly. At this time, we need to  Let's use our resilience." Ye Chang's words when bidding him farewell rang in Wei Boyu's ears. Wei Boyu squinted his eyes, and then his eyes became sharp.  In the hands of Gao Xianzhi, he was depressed and frustrated. Gao Xianzhi didn't give him any chance at all. He almost wanted to disband and go home and look for another opportunity.  Now, isn't the opportunity here? However, seizing this opportunity requires him to risk his life. Now that they have come to Anxi and eat a big spoonful of rice with blood on the blade, how can they be afraid of risking their lives?  "Listen to me" He stood up from a half-crouched position, summoned the leaders of his subordinates, and said in a firm voice.  At the same time, in the city of Shuijian, Gao Xianzhi also lowered his voice, but firmly said the same words: "Listen to me." In front of Gao Xianzhi, there was the silent Li Siye, and dozens of Tianwei.  Army sergeant.  They looked at Gao Xianzhi with different expressions.  "I am the imperial envoy of Anxi, and I am the marshal here." Gao Xianzhi glanced at everyone: "I want to see Ye Chang now. If you dare to stop me, you will be dealt with according to the military law." Following his words, he followed  The dozen or so cronies around him all drew their swords.  The sharp and sharp sound of iron scraping makes people's teeth numb and makes their hearts feel cold.  Li Wan was still smiling, but now his eyes were cold.  After seeing Ye Chang deal with Zheng Dequan and Bi Sichen in Anxi, he understood that the feud between Ye Chang and Gao Xianzhi was dead. The two would definitely not be able to coexist in Anxi, and the court would definitely transfer one of them away.  And since Ye Chang has set up the Anxi Chamber of Commerce, the interests of the entire Anxi army are tied up.It's so big, unless Gao Xianzhi's best friend and confidant, everyone else will only support Ye Chang. Under such circumstances, he has no choice but to choose a side.  After having this realization, he did not hesitate to stand by Ye Chang's side, and because of Li Bai, he was also trusted by Ye Chang. Ye Chang asked him to take care of some internal affairs.  For example, how to control Gao Xianzhi is his task.  After Gao Xianzhi escaped and returned to build the city, he was generally content, but the fierce battle outside the city today probably stimulated him, and he jumped up again.  Perhaps in his opinion, this is a very good opportunity.  "After all, when it comes to fighting in this plateau and mountainous area, Gao Xianzhi is the number one famous general in the Tang Dynasty. Even his predecessor, Meng Lingcha, was not as good as him.  "Doctor Gao, we all obey orders. Don't make things difficult for us." Li Wan said slowly and calmly: "Doctor Gao wants to see Ye Zhongcheng. We have sent people to report it. You also saw people passing by. As for whether Ye Zhongcheng saw Gao  "Doctor, it's not up to those of us who take orders." "You have said this nonsense over and over again. If you can't make the decision, then get out. Don't block my way. Do you think that now?"  Climbing a high branch, the sword in my hand can't kill you?" Gao Xianzhi's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and veins appeared on his hands, proving that he had made up his mind.  "Dr. Gao, on the way from Talas to the city, didn't you already kill the friendly troops blocking your way? Killing a subordinate like me who has never made any mistakes again is not a big deal." Li Wan's expression remained unchanged.  Very calm, after all, there were several Tianwei Army guards in front of him, and dozens of crossbowmen outside the house. If Gao Xianzhi really dared to kill him, then these Tianwei athletes would dare to kill Gao Xianzhi. His words would make Gao Xianzhi's veins pierce.  From his hands to his forehead, Gao Xianzhi turned his face and glanced at Li Siye. As long as Li Siye helped him, he was confident that he could break through the Tianwei Jianer in the room and break out of the house where he was under house arrest.  As long as he can break out, he is convinced that after he enters the Anxi military camp and gives an order, the soldiers of the Anxi Jiedu Envoy will still be loyal to him.  The key is to rely on Li Siye¡¯s courage.  Li Siye¡¯s hand holding Mo Dao trembled slightly. Of course he saw Gao Xianzhi¡¯s gaze, and he also understood what Gao Xianzhi meant.  Even before the trouble caused Li Wan, Gao Xianzhi's words were still echoing in his heart.  "As long as I enter the army of Anxi Town, I will be invincible. After all, I am Siye who was ordered by the imperial court to be the governor of Anxi. Today, help me escape. Tomorrow I will report to the imperial court and invite you as deputy envoy." Li Siye  I am very excited about this position. As a military commander, becoming the deputy envoy of Jiedu means that I am only one step away from being the highest military commander in the feudal vassal town.  "And Gao Xianzhi has support in the court. This is the key. Whether their side generals' status is stable depends on whether their subordinates are close to them, and whether there are big bosses in the court who support them."  Ye Chang originally had support in the court. His father-in-law, Li Linfu, was once the powerful prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, but that is not the case now. Otherwise, how could he be like a paper framer, ordered to run around by the emperor and let him go wherever there was a hole?  To block?  While Li Siye was weighing, he suddenly heard a laugh from outside: "Hahahaha" This laughter was hearty and bright, full of confidence. Then, Ye Chang left under the protection of Shanzhi, Wang Yang'er, Li Sheng and others.  Come in.  "Ye Chang" Gao Xianzhi frowned and stared at Ye Chang with bright eyes.  This was the first meeting between the two after they arrived in Qiuci. Although it had been several days since Gao Xianzhi fled back to build the city, and it had been nearly three days since Ye Chang had withdrawn from the army and came here, the two had never met each other during this time.  See.  "Didn't Doctor Gao just say he wanted to see me? Now that he has seen me, why didn't he speak for a long time?" Ye Chang said.  "Now that you are about to die, if you want to live, follow my command," Gao Xianzhi said.  His words were so shocking that Ye Chang and others didn¡¯t expect him to say such words, and they were all stunned.  Ye Chang raised his eyebrows and said with interest: "Is death imminent? I wonder where Dr. Gao started from when he said this?" "The big cannibals attacked with all their strength. Although you won a small victory today, you have not fought at all.  In the battle between Dashi's headquarters, I have never seen the sharpness of Dashi's army." Gao Xianzhi recalled the fierce battle under Talas City with some pain: "These are not the remnants of the Khitan in Liaodong who were crippled by Anlu Mountain, nor the remnants of the Khitan in Yunnan.  You can't take advantage of the wild monkeys that roar and jump in the mountains and forests." "What Doctor Gao saidcould it be that you can't deal with it? I remember that just five days ago, Doctor Gao suffered a disastrous defeat at Talas City.  , If Ye Zhongcheng hadn't arrived with his army, he would have fled back to Congling alone, right?" Ye Chang did not respond, but Li Wan said with a smile.  "Shu Ruanzhi is powerful!" Gao Xianzhi yelled angrily. He was a tiger general after all. Although he fell into Ye Chang's hands now, Li Wan was startled by this anger and couldn't help butThe master backed up and almost hit the Tianwei athlete behind him.  "After careful consideration for the past few days, I have come up with a strategy to defeat the enemy. The humiliation of Talos must be avenged." Gao Xianzhi glared at Ye Chang: "Ye Chang, do you really want tens of thousands of soldiers to die with you?" "  Hahahaha, I'm really wondering, is there something weird that got into your head, so you would say such ignorant words?" Ye Chang looked at Gao Xianzhi up and down, and shook his head.  He really didn¡¯t know what Gao Xianzhi was thinking. He actually wanted to seize the military power from him at this time, and he wanted to seize the military power by relying on his sharp tongue.  Do you just look so stupid?  Gao Xianzhi stared at him and sneered at the corner of his mouth: "Ye Chang, you are wrong. What I said is not for you to listen to." "Oh?" "Li Sheng, you are from the Tianwei Army, right? Bai Xiaode, you are  I, the brave general of the Anxi Army, have all spent a lot of time in the frontier, so you know the priorities of things. The fight between me and Ye Chang is not just for our power, but for your wealth and life. Although I was defeated by Talos.  Once, but when it comes to fighting on this plateau and mountainous area, can he, Ye Chang, compare to me? Now that Dashi has the advantage in troops and nearly twice the supply advantage of our army, they can sustain the fight for two or three months. We  It can last for ten days and a half at most. The morale is superior. The soldiers of Dashi are willing to sacrifice their lives to win the Talas. The most important thing is that the chief general of Dashi, Ziad, is a veteran in his army. His battlefield command ability is better than that of Ye Changshi.  The person who is twice as capable of turning the tide at this time is none other than me. If you want to survive, you must. Ye Chang suddenly realized that it turned out that Gao Xianzhi had this plan. His purpose was not to persuade Ye Chang to hand over military power, but to shake the current situation.  The soldiers from the Tianwei and Anxi armies who supported Ye Chang tried to win them over. He had calculated that Ye Chang dared to put him under house arrest but did not dare to kill him, so he made this move. As long as any of these people wavered slightly,  Ye Chang had to suppress it, and the result of the suppression would definitely lead to separation. However, his calculation was too successful. Ye Chang glanced around and couldn't help but shake his head when he saw Li Siye looking embarrassed.  It seems that although Li Siye still has some respect for Gao Xianzhi from his old superiors, he did not tell the truth completely, so Gao Xianzhi did not accurately estimate the situation, otherwise he would not have made such a mistake. Gao Xianzhi finished speaking at this time.  Waiting expectantly for the reaction of the generals, in his opinion, Ye Chang almost came to Anxi alone. Although he did not know how to obtain the support of the Tianwei Army, this support was limited after all, and the main force of the Anxi Army  , he should still listen to him as the governor of Anxi. But what surprised and frightened him was that the generals who listened to his words, whether they were the Anxi Army or the Tianwei Army, had very strange expressions. They wanted to laugh but did not dare to laugh.  , Contempt, ridicule, and a hint of pity "What do you mean?  Gao Xianzhi said: "Don't you understand yet" "Doctor, stop talking."  Li Siye, who really couldn't stand it anymore, finally couldn't stand it anymore. He stopped Gao Xianzhi and said with a guilty look on his face: "Doctor, it's just humiliation. Why do you do this?"  " "What does it mean to be humiliated for nothing? There are still my cronies in the Anxi army" "Zheng Dequan is cruel and cruel, killing kindhearted people. He has been killed by our army to calm the morale of the army.  Bi Sichen was convicted of corruption, perverting the law, and taking advantage of others. He has been sent to Chang'an to be punished.  Your cronies?  "Ye Chang sneered: "You have been in Anxi for many years, and your family has countless fields and houses, but the sergeants below are so poor that they only have one set of clothes in winter and summer. You search for gold, silver, and gems in various countries to carry loads of money, but the soldiers below are suffering from cold and hunger.  See Naoxing, just like you, you also have close followers. "What?" "Li Siye, give Dr. Gao a good report on the situation in Anxi, so that he can wake up and stop suffering from mental illness." Ye Chang was too lazy to pay attention to him anymore: "Time is up.  "In another hour, I will have a military order. If you don't come, I will engage in military law."
