Tang's dining table

After the families of Hei Te Changzhi and Sha Zha Xiangru were sent back by Pei Xingjian, Yunchu immediately put the preparation of Goguryeo's soldiers at the top of his to-do list.

The journey from Dahang City to Hanyi City and then to the front line of Pyongyang is not very far, but the road is very poor and it is difficult for people and horses to travel.

Although Li Ji's army had already cleared out the population when it advanced to Pyongyang.

But, according to Gawain, that area was mountainous and hilly. Flat land, too little water.

Therefore, most of the people of Goguryeo lived in deep mountains and valleys, and it would be difficult for an army walking over from the main road to wipe out the population there.

The number of Goguryeo people who were actually killed by Li Ji's army should be less than 20%.

Now, these people are at the rear of the Tang army. After experiencing the initial fear process, those Goguryeo people who are no longer under the jurisdiction of the Goguryeo government have turned into savages at this time due to lack of food and clothing.

Yunchu hoped that Hei Te Changzhi and Sha Zha Xiangru could lead a team of two thousand Goguryeo soldiers to tell those Goguryeo people who had no source of food and clothing that they could take him with them in the Changbai Mountains. The found goods such as ginseng, deer antlers, and mink skins were sold in Dahang City, or exchanged for grain and cloth.

Hei Te Changzhi believed that Yunchu's arrangement was very humane. At the same time, he also felt that as long as the Goguryeo people who no longer had the goods to exchange were given a new exchange place, they would not harass the Tang army's rear troops.

It is an extremely correct arrangement.

The matter was urgent, and Yun Chu did not give them much training time. Six days later, Hei Te Chang Zhi and Sha Zha Xiangru took two thousand Goguryeo soldiers equipped with leather armor to complete Yun Chu's military order.

When drinking porridge in the morning, Wen Wen couldn't bear it any longer, so she said to Yun Chu, "I don't think Hei Te Changzhi and the others can complete what you told them to do."

Yun Chu took a bite of the pickled cabbage bun and said calmly: "Why do you see that?"

"Because things weren't right from the beginning."

"What's wrong? Their equipment is enough to deal with those refugees. Besides, I didn't ask them to fight or fight. I just asked them to tell the Goguryeo people that they can come to Dahang City and exchange their things for some Food and cloth, no matter how you look at it, this is good governance."

Wen Wen looked into Yun Chu's eyes and said, "Do you believe this?"

Yun Chu smiled and said: "As long as they come to Dahang City, I will definitely open the market to them and allow them to exchange what they need in Dahang City.

Of course, as before, you still have to pay some city gate tax. "

Wen Wen smiled bitterly and said: "This is the best and most optimistic possibility among the countless possibilities for how things will develop.

Do you think things will go in this direction? "

Yun Chu smiled and said: "The teeth are always black, and Sha Zha Xiangru is a kind man."

Wen Wenwen sighed and said: "Looking at it, the result of sending troops this time is that either Hei Te Changzhi and the others killed the Goguryeo people who were like mountain bandits, or Hei Te Changzhi and the others were killed in embarrassment by the Goguryeo people in the mountains. And back."

Yun Chu frowned and said, "Is there any harm to us?"

Wen Wen spread her hands and said: "There are only advantages, no disadvantages. You may actually conquer these two warriors. I can still think of the caring and caring way you treated those two guys when they escaped back in embarrassment. You will only comfort them two, and you will never complain."

Yun Chu continued to take a bite of the pickled cabbage buns and said, "Because they couldn't bear to kill civilians, they returned in defeat. Shouldn't such good people be comforted and treated with courtesy?"

Wen Wen laughed and said: "But you will show a disappointed expression, and you will continue to organize a team of two thousand people, continue to hand it over to Hei Te Changzhi and the others, and continue to send them to complete the military affairs you previously assigned.

Guess what, with Hei Te Chang Zhi's abilities similar to Sha Zha's, after accepting the painful lesson last time, he will do something? "

After Yunchu poured the last mouthful of porridge into his mouth and drank it, he said helplessly: "Of course I came back with a great victory."

Wen Wenwen chuckled and said, "So, what about the good governance task you originally gave them to invite the Goguryeo bandits and barbarians to Dahang City to obtain food and cloth through trade?

You will definitely forget it when the time comes, right?

You will still warmly welcome Hei Te Changzhi and the others back, and you will vigorously praise their contribution to maintaining the army's food routes, and you will even ask for credit for them specifically, right? "

Yun Chu stood up and said: "Get your food and grass account books carefully, don't just ponder my ideas all day long when you have nothing to do.

As a general, when assigning tasks to his subordinates, he must create a few more points that can be called victory.

Even if you fail to complete the first one, completing the second one is also a victory. Only in this way can you use the feed of victory to feed a long-lasting victorious army.

When their strength grows to a certain level, they can slowly achieve the highest goal of completing the two tasks together. "

He smiled softly and said, "You are the best general in the world."

Yunchu said confidently: "It is."

After Wen Wenwen left, when Yun Chu was hiding in a warm room reading a book, a fat face that had not appeared in a long time appeared in front of his eyes.

The owner of this face had been his leader for more than three years, and the method he had been praised tenderly for a long time came from his teachings.

For a long time before I was promoted, the tasks I received were tasks with a high probability of success.

It is under the influence of this kind of mission that an outstanding young man, Yan Yunchu, can stand out among many opponents.

And completed his most important identity transformation from official to official.

At the same time, it really opened his eyes and he knew which of his friends among all living beings would be promoted in a short period of time.

Obviously, Hei Te Changzhi and Sha Zha Xiangru are the main targets of Yunchu's promotion. Only by letting these two people appear on the merit list of the Eastern Expedition Army can Yunchu move them to Wannian County. possible.

The result of this is that it is better than Li Ji's behavior of letting Xue Rengui do the most difficult tasks when he had nothing to do.

"If you die, you should have the wind at your back, but if you survive, you should be useful!" Thinking of what Li Ji had said to him, Yun Chu felt somewhat disapproving.

Since Li Ji is optimistic that Xue Rengui is a talent, he should cultivate him properly instead of letting him grow wildly. The saplings grown in this way may grow into a towering tree.

However, Yun Chu believed that a towering tree could never be called a forest, and a glorious era could not be supported by just a few towering trees.

Once these towering trees break, the building will collapse.

Hei Te Changzhi and Sha Zha Xiangru may not be as radiant as Xue Rengui, but if the 600 military governors of the Tang Dynasty were all people like Hei Te Changzhi... Yunchu felt that the Tang Dynasty There is no need to ask Xue Rengui and others to grow into towering trees in all their glory.

Trees that are too big will absorb more nutrients and block more sunlight, making it difficult for the rest of the saplings to thrive.

Therefore, in the forest industry, it has become a common practice to be the first to cut down trees that are large enough.

Talents, like wood, are consumables of the times.

Zhang Donghai did not carry the flag of Hong Ling's 600-mile emergency envoy on his back. After landing from Laizhou, he ran only a little slower than Hong Ling's emergency envoy.

Since the Tang Dynasty began to carry out the Eastern Expedition, a hundred stations were placed along the three thousand miles from Chang'an to Laizhou.

Starting from Laizhou, there is a post station jointly run by the government and the people every thirty miles. On weekdays, when there are no major military affairs, such inns jointly run by the government and the people will also receive ordinary merchants and travelers.

Since the beginning of the Eastern Expedition, there have been endless messengers from Chang'an to Laizhou or from Laizhou to Chang'an. At this time, the post station no longer receives ordinary people.

There were many war horses in the Tang Dynasty. When the Hong Ling messenger received an urgent order, a man would gallop on his horse for thirty miles. After basically draining the strength of the war horse, he would change to another horse and continue to run for three miles. Ten miles, and then deliver the emergency order to the next Hong Ling envoy, and continue to run for sixty miles, one day and one night, taking over the route, you can run six hundred miles, and you can deliver the news from Laizhou to Chang'an in five days .

Zhang Donghai is also a messenger, but not a Hong Ling emergency messenger. Therefore, no one can continuously replace him. At the same time, the important news he carries cannot be written on official documents and known to others.

Zhang Donghai, who had always been loyal to Emperor Li Zhi, took eight of his subordinates after landing from Laizhou and ran day and night, changing horses and men along the way. When he was hungry, he would grab a handful of fried noodles and stuff them into his mouth, and then drink them with water, unless I was really exhausted, so I hurriedly found a post station and fell asleep. As long as my eyes were open, I would continue running.

By the time Zhang Donghai saw the Chang'an City Wall, this sturdy man was now emaciated and out of shape.

At this time, Chang'an City was already bathed in the sunset, and the evening drum in the city had already sounded its first sound. At this time, Zhang Donghai and a group of nine people got into the Chang'an City Gate that was about to close.

After entering Chang'an City and setting foot on Zhuque Street, Zhang Donghai covered his face with a piece of cloth, and the rest of his subordinates did the same.

When passing by Dongshi, eight of his subordinates went straight into the Wannian County Government Office in Dongshi, leaving Zhang Donghai alone and galloping towards the imperial city.

Just when the imperial city was about to close, Zhang Donghai rode into the imperial city and was immediately chased by numerous armed guards.

Zhang Donghai ignored these people and came to the palace city where the gate was closed. Then he jumped off the horse with difficulty. At this time, his pants were already stained with blood.

When Zhang Donghai put his special sign through a one-foot-square hole, the military guards chasing him immediately turned around and left, without even having the strength to take another look.

Countless gates in the closed palace city opened for Zhang Donghai one after another. Six palace guards carried Zhang Donghai, who could no longer walk, and ran all the way.

Li Zhi, who was having dinner, fed half of the chicken to the giant bear, originally thinking of eating the remaining half himself.

I saw that the giant bear had finished eating half of the fat chicken and was still looking at the remaining half of the fat chicken with bright eyes.

Li Zhi raised his foot and kicked the giant bear, then stuffed the remaining half of the fat chicken into the giant bear's fat forepaw. He took a bite of green vegetables, frowned, and swallowed it.

At this time, the eunuch hurriedly came in and said: "Your Majesty, No. A, No. 15, wants to see you."
