Chapter 169: The Great God of the New Generation!

Chapter 169

Zhang Qiu Jianqiong is far from the only one who pays attention to the affairs of the court.

When Zhangchou Jianqiong's big kite flew to the capital, in the northeast of the Tang Dynasty, in a huge camp, there were gold cups and silver bowls, and tiger skins on the floor, which was extremely luxurious.

In the camp, a figure of about forty years old, with a dragon spirit and a fierce tiger, was eating a large piece of meat and drinking in a large bowl, while laughing, his whole body exuded an extremely fierce and terrifying smell.

"Hahaha, Zhiyi, have you seen all the documents on the table? This is a joint name of hundreds of generals. Hundreds of documents are all begging me, the general of Fuguo! Protector of Anton! The founding father of Nanyang County !"

The people in the camp, with their armor vibrating and their long hair flying, were obviously in a very happy mood.

"This..., does the commander-in-chief really want to intervene in this matter? At the beginning, Jiu Gong said a word, but the commander-in-chief was delayed in the border for nearly 20 years."

Not far away, across a pot of charcoal fire, a middle-aged Confucian general with the appearance of a scribe was sitting cross-legged, with two mustaches hanging from his lips, giving people the feeling of a modest and gentle gentleman. He is Zhang Shougui's lifelong best friend. , Wu Zhiyi, who is intertwined with life and death.

The two joined the army together. The Great Tang Longxi ran Guazhou and fought against Uzang. Up to now, Anton's general guard has deterred the Xi people and Khitan, and the Turks farther away. The two have always been the best partners. A friend beyond life and death.

Now, the Big Dipper General Ge Shuhan, who has gained fame in the imperial court and is known as "the seven stars of the Big Dipper are high, and Ge Shuye carries a knife" in the battle against Uzang, is only farming in the territory he has cultivated before.

In terms of seniority, Ge Shuhan is just a junior, and he has nothing to show off in front of Zhang Shougui, a senior.

There were not many strong generals in the Tang Dynasty, and even fewer were able to suppress Ge Shuhan, but Zhang Shougui was definitely one of them.

This is also the reason why so many titled general documents flew to the Northeast Protectorate like a snowflake.

In the Great Tang Dynasty, there were very few Huren generals who could really compete with Gao Xianzhi, Fumeng Lingcha, Ge Shuhan, and An Sishun, who were armed with heavy troops.

Zhang Shougui, the general of Fuguo, is definitely one of the few.

As for the titled general, although his status is higher than that of ordinary generals, in terms of weight, it is still not enough.

"Hmph, Zhang Jiuling's relying on the old to sell the old, spoiling my way to become a prime minister, how could I not remember?"

Hearing Wu Zhiyi's words,

Zhang Shougui's face suddenly darkened. Zhang Shougui knew that Wu Zhiyi was talking about the twenty-three years of the Holy Emperor.

At that time Zhang Shougui had just arrived in Youzhou, and the Great Breakthrough was in full swing, seriously threatening Youzhou and the Khitan tribe in the northeast of the Tang Dynasty. Coupled with Longyou's many times of defeating Wu Sizang, Zhang Shougui's momentum at that time was very powerful, and there were even rumors that "the superior wanted to think of him as a relative".

It's a pity that Wang Jiuling thought that Zhang Shougui was too young and not mature enough. Although he was used to fighting, he might not be qualified to be a prime minister and manage the court.

So when His Majesty the Holy Emperor asked, Wang Jiuling, Wang Chong's grandfather, overruled it. He said, "Shou Gui only broke Khitan, and His Majesty will consider him Prime Minister; if Xi and Jue are wiped out, what official will His Majesty reward them with?" Zhang Shougui's dream of prime minister.

If not, Zhang Shougui might become the youngest prime minister in the history of the Tang Dynasty!

The hatred in Zhang Shougui's heart can be imagined.

"However, although that kid from the Wang family is not worth saving, that guy Fumeng Lingcha is even more hateful! Could it be that so many people begged me to come out of the mountain, so that I could not only humiliate that guy from the Wang family, but also kill that guy Fumeng Lingcha? The majesty and prestige, why not do it?"

Zhang Shougui suddenly laughed.

Wang Jiuling is known as Jiugong, and he is highly respected in the court. Although Zhang Shougui was very upset when he spoiled his own good deeds back then, it was impossible to deal with such a character as hard as he did on the battlefield.

Taking action to save his grandson is the best humiliation for him. As for Fumeng Lingcha...

Few people in the Great Tang Empire can compare with Zhang Shougui in terms of qualifications, and Fumeng Lingcha is definitely one of them. When Zhang Shougui was not the protector of Andong, when Longyou was fighting against Wu Sizang, Guazhou intersected with Qixi and Anxi, and there was no conflict between them.

This time Fumeng Lingcha danced so well, Zhang Shougui couldn't get used to it. Compared to teaching Fumeng Lingcha a lesson about this prospect, saving Jiugong's grandson Wang Chong is not a big deal.

"However, in the current situation, Hu and Han generals are in serious confrontation in the court because of the child. We are in Youzhou, which is different from Han generals in other places. We have a large number of Hu generals and soldiers. , I’m afraid there will be a mutiny below, which will be bad for us!”

Wu Zhiyi frowned and said worriedly. The more he knew about the affairs of the imperial court, the more worried he became. It would not be wise to rashly get involved in the current situation.

Unexpectedly, when Wu Zhiyi's words fell into Zhang Shougui's ears, they caused a burst of laughter.

"Hahaha, Zhiyi, why do you also learn from those people in the court? Han generals and Hu generals are really stupid. In my Youzhou territory, in front of me, Zhang Shougui, there are no Hu or Han, only those who obey me, And those who disobey me. What do you say, horse?"

Zhang Shougui suddenly glanced over his head, his eyes were like lightning, and he looked not far away, there was a fat, white, twenty-one-year-old young barbarian lying on the ground grazing.

"what!"

Zhang Shougui stared at the white and fat young barbarian, trembling all over, with cold sweat streaming from his forehead, with a look of panic on his face:

"Marshal is right, we Hu people are horses, horses, how can horses compare to you. Fumeng Lingcha and Gao Xianzhi are just like me, they are horses, they are horses."

As he spoke, he pouted his buttocks, held the cut grass in his mouth, and yelled like Maer Xi Yuyu, with a flattering and flattering expression on his face.

"Hahaha!"

Seeing the young barbarians fawning over him, Zhang Shougui burst out laughing, and even Wu Zhiyi, who was beside him, was also amused to laugh.

"Whoever obeys me will live, and whoever disobeys me will die!"

Zhang Shougui smiled, and suddenly pulled out a token from his waist, and threw it out of the tent like lightning. Outside the big tent, it was rainy and brocade, and the cold wind was howling. More than a hundred Hu people from Xi, Khitan, and Turks were bound, standing in the biting cold wind, with more than a hundred swordsmen behind them.

"kill!"

As soon as the sound fell, the head fell to the ground, blood burst out, and more than a hundred Xi, Khitan and Turkic fell to the ground like stakes, struggled twice, and remained motionless.

Soon, armored warriors came over, dragged their bodies away, threw them into a ditch, and buried them on the spot. A thick bloody smell wafted through the rain.

Here, the grass on the ground is all red.

In the east and west of the Tang Dynasty, east of Youzhou, Zhang Shougui is the existence that stops children from crying. As he said, in the situation of Youzhou, in front of Zhang Shougui, there is neither Hu nor Han.

Only the obedient and the disobedient.

Those who obey live, those who disobey die!

"boom!"

The tent was torn apart, and the young barbarian who was still pretending to be a horse in the tent before flew out of the tent like a ball of white meat.

"Take Ashina to work, let's go to work together, the two generals! If we don't catch two hundred people from Xi and Khitan today, there will be two more people sleeping in that trench. Don't Thinking of running away, you should know that you can't escape!"

That icy voice, every word was like ice scum, more piercing than the cold wind.

"Gah!"

Almost when the two young barbarians fled Zhang Shougui's camp, a crow flew out of the tent like a sharp arrow, went up against the clouds, and went all the way to the capital of Tang Dynasty.

Zhang Shougui, General of Fuguo, and Protector of Anton!

When Zhang Shougui's name appeared in the imperial court, the whole Han generals definitely had the heaviest bargaining chip.

In the military circles of the Tang Empire, Zhang Shougui definitely belonged to the Taishan Beidou level figure, one of the two legendary existences in the middle-earth of the generation of the pilgrimage emperor.

However, among the military circles, there was another one whose status was higher than Zhang Shougui's and whose military achievements were even more prominent.

When the copy of Zhang Shougui, the governor of Youzhou and the protector of An Dong Dadu, appeared at the court, the next moment, countless people's eyes immediately turned to this military leader among the Han people.

On the east side of the Tang Imperial Palace, on Qinglong Street, in Prince Shaobao's Mansion, a middle-aged man with a Chinese character face, a handsome face, a majestic expression, and a resolute bearing sat on the side of the bed, frowning.

Although he didn't reveal the slightest aura, the middle-aged man naturally had the aura of being in control of the world's soldiers and horses and sitting on supreme power.

Every move, although inadvertent, gives people a feeling of shock and awe.

In front of this middle-aged man, everyone can't help but bow their heads, not even daring to look at him, and naturally feel admiration.

This person is Prince Shaobao Wang Zhongsi.

In the Great Tang Empire, there were not many people whose status could surpass Zhang Shougui, Fumeng Lingcha, Gao Xianzhi, Ge Shuhan, and An Sishun.

Wang Zhongsi is definitely the one who can do this.

The reason is very simple, the current deputy envoy of the Great Dou Army, General Ge Shuhan of the Big Dipper was single-handedly selected by him.

Wang Zhongsi didn't have any prominent positions in the military circle. In fact, he had already been relieved of his military power, and he only had the official title of Prince Shaobao.

But in terms of the positions he has held, no one in the entire Tang Dynasty can match him, Daizhou Governor, She Yushi Doctor, and Hedong Jiedu, General Yunhui, General Zuo Yulin, and even the Governor of Anbei, The governor of Qixi, the governor of Andong, the governor of Annan... He has held all these positions.

As for what he has done, no one in the Tang Dynasty can match it.

During the time of the governor of Andong, he defeated Xi and Khitan; when he was the governor of Anbei, he wiped out the Eastern and Western Turks, defeated the two Turkic Khanates, and won twenty years of peace; , then repeatedly hit the Uzang Plateau, forcing all the holy monks in the Snow Mountain to come out to deal with him.

In Wang Zhongsi's life, except for Suiye City in the Western Regions, he had never been there, and he had fought all other opponents he could fight.

However, it is different from other generals.

Wang Zhongsi has never had a sense of utilitarianism. Every time there is a war, he leads the military power to go and hand over the military power back. On the battlefield, he was an invincible commander, but when he came back, he was borrowed from an unknown name, with only the title of Prince Shaobao on his shoulders.

Moreover, unlike other generals, Wang Zhongsi was sympathetic to the soldiers. Although he had made great military achievements, he was unwilling to start a war. Therefore, throughout his life, if he could not start a war, Wang Zhongsi would try to start a war as little as possible.

At the same time, Wang Zhongsi is more willing to give up the chance of fame and experience to those young people who will come later. This is why he is respected in court.

The most important thing is that although he has made so many contributions and wiped out so many opponents, Wang Zhongsi is only fifty years old today.

In this dynasty, he is definitely the great god of the present age!
