Qiu Niang came back from buying wine, put down the wine jar, thinking of something, and said to Gu Baiyi: "I went there, I haven't been there for many days, and I don't know how he is now."
Gu Baiyi nodded and said: "Be careful on the road, and comfort him a few more words."
"Don't really drink too much. After seeing him, I will go to see if anyone's cruise ship is vacant, and it happened to be bought." Qiuniang went to her room, and after a while, she changed her body. The clothes made Qin Xiao's eyes bright.
This is a very clean green waxy dress. Although it's not luxurious, it adds a few more colors to the beautiful Qiuniang.
She is a mature woman, she is exquisite and bubbly. Wearing this waxy skirt makes her beautiful figure undulating, with a round waist and a round buttocks. The slender part is full of grip, and the full part is beautiful and plump. Pouring up and down mature and soft charm.
Qin Xiao was a little surprised. This waxy dress was obviously a dress that Qiuniang cherished very much. When she went out this time, she dressed so beautifully, and the people she wanted to meet were naturally unusual.
Not only did she put on a glutinous skirt, Qiuniang also gave her a little pink and daisy, and she looked even more beautiful.
Women are the ones who please themselves.
Qin Xiao couldn't help thinking in his heart, is it possible that Qiuniang is going to meet with which man?
But naturally, he doesn't ask much about this kind of thing.
Qiu Niang gave a few words without delay, and went out gracefully. Qin Xiao looked at Qiuniang’s beautiful back, and suddenly thought of the fat woman at the door calling Qiuniang a vixen. I didn’t understand it before. At this time, she suddenly came to her senses, daring to be the fat woman who saw Qiuniang wearing this outfit to go out.
This body is beautiful and dazzling, and even more elegant, it is really charming and moving. It is no wonder that the fat woman would say that Qiuniang is a fox.
"We can't change things about the imperial court." Gu Baiyi's voice sounded in his ears: "The saints ascended the throne, and the three prefectures and seven counties led by Murong Changdu rebelled, and the world was in chaos. The Southern Army took advantage of the new monarch. At the time of stability, I went all the way north, drove straight into the city, attacked the city, and the whole dynasty was shocked. At that time, the Tusun people took the opportunity to go south and restrained the Tang army. If it were not for the logistics supply of the southern army at that time, Murong might not have been able to reach Kyoto."
The internal and external troubles of the empire back then can be said to be the starting point for the empire to turn from prosperity to decline.
The Great Tang Empire was strong for a while. Such a powerful empire would never collapse because of foreign enemies. It could only find its own way.
Xiahou ascended the throne. Although they had the edict of Emperor Dezong, Zhao Yankuo and others directly wrote to Xiahou to be emperor. After this group of people were slain, the scholars of the world also criticized Xiahou with pens, and held heavy soldiers. Local states and counties were also ready to move, and eventually Xiahou became emperor, which directly led to the rebellion of three states and seven counties.
Although only three states and seven counties rebelled in the eighteen states of the empire, at least half of the states and counties sat on the mountain and watched the tigers.
After that war, not only did the court punish a group of capable officials and officials, but also cost a lot of money to counter the rebellion. In the end, except for the southern Xinjiang army safely retreated to the south, all other rebels were suppressed. The result was The treasury was empty, and the empire was in an extremely weak state for several years. For this reason, it even had to throw Xiling into the hands of the Xiling family, unable to form effective control over Xiling.
"So many
In the past few years, in the hearts of the saints, the greatest threat to the empire came from southern Xinjiang. "Gu Baiyi said calmly: "Chairman Murong has both civil and military skills. It can be said that there are few people who have a strategy of warfare. The generals of the Manchu dynasty are only the old generals who can really compete with Murong. Although Tai Shi Cunxu was proficient in the art of war and was trained by the old general Tai Shi, he was still younger after all, and Murong Chang had rich experience. General Hei Yu, Brother Qin, with all due respect, his old man is good at using surprise soldiers, but if he fights with a large army, he is still a bit inferior to Murong. "
Qin Xiao nodded slightly, knowing that Gu Baiyi was telling the truth.
"It's a pity that the old general Taishi is very old. I have heard that I have been lingering on the bed for the past two years." Gu Baiyi sighed lightly: "The saint regards Murong Changdu as his biggest confidant. Before he calms southern Xinjiang, he will naturally not enter Xiling. , And even went to war with the Wutuo people. In fact, for so many years, the court has been planning to conquer Murong Changdu. Although the two sides negotiated, Murong Chang sent hostages to become ministers, and the court also gave him the title of King of Zhennan, but everyone in the world knows As long as the imperial court regained its vitality, Mr. Murong would be the first one to perform the operation."
Qin Xiao said with a hint of sarcasm: "The saint has been on the throne for seventeen years, and Chang Murong is still sitting comfortably on the chair of the King of Zhennan."
Gu Baiyi smiled and said: "Chang Murong started his army back then, but he is now half a hundred people in his early thirties. When the saint first came to the throne, after the war, he was bound to regain his vitality. Fighting is complicated and complicated. It is simple and simple to say. If troops are sent, the morale of the army is naturally indispensable, money, food, and weapons are even more indispensable, and the most important thing is to need a strategizing general in the army. It was precisely because of the saints that brought down the chaos in the three states and seven counties. Owning the old general of Taishi, but that was a matter of ten years ago. If the treasury was sufficient ten years ago and decided to conquer southern Xinjiang, the old general still had the energy to command the troops, but the conquest of southern Xinjiang was definitely not a year and a half Without sufficient money and food to support two years, naturally it is not easy to use troops. Therefore, when the old general was ready to fight, the court failed to send troops. Now the old general is too old to lead troops to fight, and the treasury is still unable to make ends meet. If you want to use troops in southern Xinjiang, you have to think twice."
"Brother Gu, according to this, Nanjiang has been dragging on, and the recovery of Xiling is nowhere in sight?" Qin Xiao smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Although the national treasury has not been full in the past few years, it is at least much more full than it was during the most difficult time." Gu Baiyi said lightly: "There has been no major war in more than ten years, and the important officials of the court are all used to the peace in front of them. Day. If you have to send troops to conquer the fourteen counties of two states in southern Xinjiang with the power of one country, you will naturally have the upper hand in strength, but...!" I put a piece of pork head in my mouth and chewed slowly. Yan, calmly said: "But if you lose, what will happen?"
Qin Xiao was startled.
"Once you lose, the ground will shake." Gu Baiyi said: "Maybe the empire is in turmoil again, and the adults of the court will no longer be able to live a stable life now." He smiled slightly and said. "So the adults in the court are saying that they are saving up their strength and waiting for the opportunity to send troops to conquer southern Xinjiang, but they just say that if the sage is really going to send troops on a whim, I am afraid that most of the Manchu civil and military forces will prevent the sending of troops, and it will also There are countless reasons to say that the saint has to take his life back."
Qin Xiao was even more stunned.
When he was in Xiling, when the officials of the Capitol chatted occasionally, they would inevitably mention when the imperial court would actually take back control of Xiling from the Xiling family.
In fact, some people have said that the imperial court must first take down southern Xinjiang, and then send troops westward.
The people in the Duwei Mansion have been waiting for the day when the imperial court destroys southern Xinjiang. As long as the southern Xinjiang is conquered and the Tang army leaves the pass and enters Xiling, the Duwei Mansion will be proud of it.
After more than ten years, although Tang Jun did not leave the pass and enter Xiling, even Nanjiang has been in the hands of Murong Changdu.
At this time, Qin Xiao finally understood that, in the final analysis, the court had never thought of a decisive battle with Nanjiang for the sake of stability.
"Brother Qin, even the southern Xinjiang that the saint feels like Rumang has not recovered, do you think the court will easily send troops to Xiling?" Gu Baiyi sighed, "In fact, only General Heiyu has been thinking about taking back Xiling. Chao Wenwu didn't dare to abandon Xiling, but no one really helped General Kuroba get back Xiling. Before the general left the customs, Chaozhong was a joyous one. It was said that the saints were planning tactics and regained control without a single soldier. Xiling, no one thought that it was actually a trap set by the Fan family. Now that the general was killed and Xiling fell into the hands of the Xiling family, the adults in the court just thought it was nothing but joy, and no one really wanted to take it. Go back to Xiling." shook his head and said: "Xiling has been lost for more than ten years. It is good to be lost again. Now that it is lost again, it is just returning to the original state. Those adults will not find it strange."
Gu Baiyi's sincere remarks also pierced Qin Xiao's heart like a knife.
He had a cold heart. He always thought that the imperial court could not accept that Xiling was occupied by the rebels. Only now did he understand that the nobles from top to bottom in the court never regarded Xiling as the same thing.
If you lose Xiling, you only need to die a few people, just like the unlucky ghost like Fan Wenzheng, it can be used to give an explanation to the army and the people of the world.
"What kind of **** court is this?" Qin Xiao finally cursed: "Is this still the Great Tang Empire that prestigious all over the world?"
Gu Baiyi said calmly: "Some people want to change this world, but they are eventually changed by this world. I heard that as long as there was a place where the Great Tang flag was flying, the enemy would kneel and surrender without using swords or soldiers. No matter who it is , As long as you are enemies of Datang, you will eventually become the ghost of Datang Iron Knight." He raised his head slightly, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes: "That must be a very beautiful era!"
"Maybe... there will be another day!" Qin Xiao seemed to be thinking about the once glorious era of Datang.
Gu Baiyi stretched out his hand and patted Qin Xiao's shoulder with a smile, and said with a smile: "If many years later, there is a new emperor who will make great efforts to govern and revitalize the Tang Dynasty. Maybe there will be one day, I just hope that day will come. At that time, we were not old yet."
Qin Xiao smiled and said: "Brother Gu, if there really is that day, we will be old. Two old people, riding two horses, carrying a banner of Datang, we will go to the border of Datang. Go and see if those barbarians will kneel down and beg for mercy when they see our banner. Hahaha, if that's the case, we won't live in vain in this life."
"Then it's settled." Gu Baiyi stretched out his hand, "If one day, we two old men will carry the flag to the border, let the barbarians take a look at our prestige."
The two high-five each other, amidst the laughter, they are very crisp.
