If we really have to face the Uighurs, the number of casualties will definitely be far greater than when facing the Xi Qi coalition. Although Ye Qingcheng may be able to avoid this situation, if it can be resolved peacefully, who will think about fighting and killing? Therefore, Ye Qingcheng's role must be played to avoid war with the three tribes.
I don't know when, Ye Qingcheng's existence was actually regarded as a strategic weapon, but combined with his own attitude of not wanting to show off, this is the general trend and unavoidable. He himself does not dislike this, as long as he can continue to contribute to the Tang Army. That's enough. He wants to enjoy the last time he has left in the mortal world. When the borders of the Tang Dynasty are stabilized, he will really start wandering around the world, and then go to Shushan to start practicing as the lowest disciple. .
Although he followed Yin Shifei around for several months before, after all, he followed Yin Shifei everywhere to deceive people as a fortune-telling Taoist priest, not the knight-errant Jianghu he once dreamed of when wandering the streets of Chang'an. If he wanted to weaken the Golden Thunder Tribulation, The inner demons encountered during this time, these unresolved causes in the mortal world must be resolved. These were proposed by Huan Chenyu, which made Bai Quan couldn't help but murmur in his heart, if a guy of Ye Qingcheng's level enters the mortal world, wouldn't it cause a storm? Even if he doesn't use the Dragon-Seeking Secret Technique, even if he doesn't rely on the power of the two of them, he is definitely a being far beyond the realm of mortals. His long-term dealings with cultivators have greatly improved his reaction nerves and speed. Coupled with his adaptability after using Jieying and Eyesight Secrets many times, it can be said that even the guy ranked first in the world of mortals There is absolutely no way he can go a few rounds in front of Ye Qingcheng, let alone he has a sharp weapon like Long Quan. No, even if he doesn't use a sharp weapon, I'm afraid no one can be his opponent.
But Ye Qingcheng was too lazy to pay attention to these things. Although he was no longer Ye Sanlang, and although he was becoming more and more indifferent, the laziness in his bones was difficult to eliminate within a few years. He was too lazy to pay attention to these things. A big tribe, a Turkic Khanate, or even a river and lake. Now he only needs to lie quietly on his soft bed, waiting for Wang Zhongsi to issue an order, and he will take Huan Chenyu and Baiquan to execute it.
Speaking of which, this bed was specially given to him by Wang Zhongsi, because Huan Chenyu told him that although Ye Qingcheng was unambiguous in his work, he might be a little lazy on weekdays. The Tang army seized a lot of things from the Xi Qi coalition, so Wang Zhongsi specially took a bed from Li Huaixiu's belongings and gave it to the logistics soldiers, asking them to go to the scout camp to install it for Ye Qingcheng when they arrived at the camp. This allowed Bai Quan to He was filled with envy. After sleeping in Li Huaixiu's tent a few days ago, he felt the difference between the floor bunk and the bed, one in the sky and one on the ground. Although it was common for him to sleep on his stomach before this, But that is a prototype, not a human form. When using a human form, the contrast is quite strong. Even a beggar knows how to find a corner to sleep in that can shelter from the wind and rain. Although it is not a difference of this level, psychologically speaking, Baiquan is quite jealous, but it is just jealous.
Perhaps it was because the Shuofang Army's scout battalion had made great contributions to Ye Qingcheng in the previous Battle of Sanggan River, so Wang Zhongsi did not send them out to perform the mission this time, but sent scout battalions from other towns to investigate. Not only because of the reasons mentioned above, but also because of the issue of military morale and people's hearts. Just imagine, if you frequently dispatch Shuofang Army's scout battalion and give them tasks because Ye Qingcheng is there, then the military glory will naturally fall on them. What will the scout battalions of the other three towns think? What would the generals of the other three towns think? Then it would be thought that Wang Zhongsi was partial. In order to avoid such a situation, everyone had to be taken into consideration. Besides, it was not said that this time the troops would be mobilized, and there would definitely be a war. The barbarians in the north did not dare to take the initiative to send troops, so the scouts' exploration was just a routine matter. There was no need for Ye Qingcheng to lead the sixth team of the Shuofang Army's Scout Battalion to go deep into the enemy's rear and burn fire Nishikura did it to this extent.
While they were resting peacefully in the area where they were stationed, Wang Zhongsi was having a heated discussion in his tent. The main characters were Du Yanbin and himself. The key to the dispute between the two was the outcome. Should we send Ye Qingcheng as an envoy to the Third Department?
In Du Yanbin's view, these northern barbarians were barbarians with no culture and morals. Although they surrendered to the Tang Dynasty verbally, they could not tell when they would betray them, not to mention that this time the Tang army was pressing down on the border, it was very likely that they would betray them. Arousing the backlash of the three ministries, any envoy who goes there is in great danger, not to mention that Ni Fuguo has bribed him a lot of money in recent days. Although he is not that kind of person, because his wife and children have not Still living in his ancestral home and unable to afford a house in Chang'an, he finally accepted it. If it were you, if you knew that you were in danger of dying if you went to Part 3, would you go? That's not stupid. As a trusted confidant of Li Longji, Ni Fuguo was squeezed out and framed by other cronies this time, so he ended up in this narrow escape mission. Of course, he was not willing to die innocently. No, to be precise, It was precisely because he knew some inside stories that he was unwilling to go.
Sun Laonu, the general of Zuo Yulin who carried out Li Longji's plan last time, expressed his dissatisfaction when Ashina Shi, the chief of Bashimi, supported Usumish Khan as a powerful man. With the consent of the Tang Dynasty, and without reporting to the Tang Dynasty, he secretly established himself as the Jiedi Yishi Khan. This dissatisfaction reached its peak. He reprimanded Ashina Shi in person and spoke out his words in the most insulting way. The contempt for these northern barbarians in his heart made Ashina Shi very angry, but because he did not dare to offend Li Longji's special envoy, he did not take action on the spot.
Later, Sun Laonu was attacked by horse bandits on his way back to Chang'an and was killed on the spot. It was undoubtedly Ashina Shi who did it. However, Li Longji did not publicize this, but tried his best to limit the spread of the matter. Otherwise, if the people of the Tang Dynasty knew about it, their dissatisfaction with these northern barbarians would lead to calls for troops. He did not want this to happen.
Precisely because he knew this situation, he was even more reluctant to go. Thinking about it, after Sun Laonu insulted Ashina Shi last time, he had a very bad impression of the Han people. If it weren't for the fear of the Tang Dynasty's military power and the eagerness to In the other two departments, he had already led troops to harass the border. Now that he goes to these three departments as Li Longji's special envoy, he will undoubtedly be sent to the door. No matter what, he must find a way to avoid this matter.
