How can you be wronged to be a famous guard by the old man?" He said, "The future of the White Tiger Camp, the old man has already planned for you. The Empire. The main force of Tusun is divided into two parts: the north and the south. The northern legions are distributed in the four northern towns to prevent the Tusun people from going south. In the past few years, the Tusun Duerhu forces have been running horizontally in the desert. The power is growing and has become a hidden danger. The four northern towns The soldiers and horses of the army are firmly guarding the northern line of defense and cannot be easily moved. To the south, the court has distributed tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Kuaiji, Guiyang, Lingling and Yizhou in recent years, forming a pocket for southern Xinjiang, and they cannot be easily moved. In addition to the left and right armed guards defending Kyoto, Datang has the strongest two main armies for north-south defense. For the time being, it has not been able to deploy too many troops to station in Xiling."

Several people knew in their hearts that, compared to Wu Tuo, the threats to Datang from the Murong and Tusun people in Nanjiang were more serious.

Once the Tusun people in the north go south, they only need to tear open the gap and drive straight in, but they can reach Kyoto three hundred miles. For the safety of Kyoto, the soldiers and horses of the four northern towns must not be moved without authorization.

Southern Xinjiang Murong sits on the sixteen prefectures of Southern Xinjiang. Although the strength is far from comparable to that of Datang, the territories occupied are high and steep, easy to defend and not easy to attack. Once they neglect the defense of Southern Xinjiang and the Murong Army goes northward, the entire southern part of the empire will be trapped. The chaos of war, of course, is not what Datang wants to see.

On the contrary, it is Xiling. Although Datang does not want to lose this territory, even if the Wutuo people really swallow Xiling, the empire still has the Jiayuguan natural danger to guard, and the Wutuo people want to break through Jiayuguan and enter the pass. It's hard.

The Wutuo people can't threaten the mansion of the Tang Dynasty, and the political strategy of the Tang Dynasty has always put the north and the south first, and the west is behind.

"As we move into the pass, General Heiyu will naturally deploy troops and horses to station in Xiling." Old Houye slowly said: "The soldiers and horses guarding the northern Woye Town in the northern part of the northern government will naturally be sent out, but the two in Woye Town With 10,000 soldiers and horses, it is naturally impossible for General Black Feather to be transferred to Xiling. Even if General Black Feather thinks about it, the court cannot agree."

Yuan Shangyu nodded and said: "Woye Town is a dangerous and important place. Once the forces are weak, the Tusun people will know that it will be a breakthrough in Woye Town. General Heiyu knows the importance and will never adjust the number of troops and horses in Woye Town. go."

"So if nothing happens, General Black Feather will at most transfer his 3,000 longevity army from Woye Town." Old Hou Ye said: "Although the longevity army is the strongest soldier in the four northern towns, after all, There are only three thousand people, relying on three thousand people to garrison Xiling, the military strength is naturally serious. If I am not mistaken, after the general is stationed in Xiling, he will ask the court to recruit troops from Xiling. The Wutuo people will take two years at the earliest. Only then can we advance eastward. In two years, as long as the court supplies enough money and food, and with the ability of General Kuroba, it is not difficult to train two to three thousand horses."

Yuan Shangyu shook his head and said, "Master Hou, my subordinates feel that these years are saints...!" After a pause, he didn't dare to say something straight, and could only say: "The treasury has been stretched these years. It’s nothing more than the army’s military needs. In order to guard against the Murong family, the southern side spends countless money and food every year. If Xiling recruits a tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, it is easy to recruit, but the court may not be able to afford it."

"This is what the old man is worried about." Old Houye sighed: "So if the Xiling family can take the initiative to pay a part of the wealth, it may also relieve General Heiyu's urgent need." He sighed and said: "Xiling natural disasters have been frequent in recent years. , More searched by major families, hundreds

The burden of the surname is already extremely heavy. If we continue to increase taxes and raise tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, it will really be unsustainable."

Qin Xiao was silent, and wanted to exploit the people. The Yuwen family was also one of them, and the money it exploited would never be less than that of other wealthy families. If it weren't for the example of the three great families, the major families in Xiling might not dare to be so crazy. Make money.

However, if Yuwen's family can donate all the properties, it can be regarded as making up for the past sins.

"After General Heiyu settled in Xiling, for him, the first problem to be solved was naturally weak forces." Old Hou Ye said: "Fortunately, we have run horse farms under the Qilian Mountains these years. After these horse farms belong to the court, General Heiyu There is no shortage of horses. In addition, there are many mines in Xiling, and there is no need to bother the court by mining iron ore and forging weapons. Shang Yu and the soldiers of Baihuying are all trained warriors. After Yuwen's family leaves, it is the time for you to serve the empire. I have already proposed to General Black Feather that if he is willing to take in the White Tiger Camp, the officers and soldiers of the White Tiger Camp will temporarily be incorporated into the Protector Army, which is nominally subordinate to the Protectorate of the Western Regions, but will be commanded directly by General Black Feather."

Yuan Shangyu was slightly surprised, and Qin Xiao was also greatly surprised.

Old Master Hou laughed and said, "General Black Feather is the god of war in the world. As long as he is a soldier, how many do not want to serve under him? What the old man did for the White Tiger Camp can only end here." He got up and walked over. Yuan Shangyu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Following General Heiyu, he has the opportunity to make achievements. If he can make great achievements in fighting against the Wutuo, the old man's hard work for so many years will not be in vain. ."

Yuan Shangyu knelt down on one knee, choked up and said: "Master Hou, his subordinates should obey the instructions of Master Hou, swear to follow General Heiyu, and severely cut off the head of the Wutuo people on the battlefield."

The old man nodded slightly, and then looked at Qin Xiao and said: "Qin Xiao, you came from the Guicheng Duwei's Mansion. You were originally a member of the imperial court. He was related to my Yuwen family and spent some time in Baihuying. You. Although he is young, he dares to act, and his skills are great. If he can serve under General Black Feather, he will be able to make great achievements in the future." He also patted Qin Xiao's shoulder gently, and said softly: "Old man, Baihu Leave the camp to Shang Yu and you. You will bother more in the future."

Qin Xiao has never had a good impression of the wealthy family, but this time the old man is not only willing to let the Yuwen family move into the customs, but also donates all the family business. Such great wisdom and big mind also make Qin Xiao respect No matter what the old man has done, at least this time he has done something worthy of respect.

"In these days, Lord Hou and the eldest son have a lot to do with Qin Xiao, great kindness and virtue, Qin Xiao has no teeth." Qin Xiao knelt on one knee and bowed his hands in salute.

As far as Yuwenjia is concerned, Qin Xiao still has some gratitude in his heart.

When he was at his most desperate, he was taken into custody by Yuwen's family, no matter whether Yuwen's family wanted to serve them, at least they could have a place to stay.

The most important thing is that if it were not for the Yuwen family, Qin Xiao could hardly imagine how to eradicate the Zhen family's revenge.

However, if Baihuying can really become General Heiyu's commander, and then follow General Heiyu's commander to serve Datang in the future, Qin Xiao really can't ask for it.

As Lao Hou Ye said, every soldier in Datang was of course willing to be a subordinate of General Black Feather.

He had long respected General Kuroba, and saw General Kuroba's heroic demeanor tonight.

Even more so, I thought that if I could join General Kuroba, it would be my life's wish.

Now that the old master handed the White Tiger Camp to General Hei Yu, Qin Xiao was naturally happy in his heart. If he could fight against the Wutuo under the command of General Hei Yu, Qin Xiao would have no regrets even if he died on the battlefield.

After dawn, the mountain worship ceremony began under the auspices of the Gangulin family.

After General Heiyu left last night, Fan Ziqi also took Fan Qi to evacuate, but did not stay. The Zhen family and his sons were given the heads, so naturally they could not participate in the mountain worship. Therefore, of the three main gates, only Yuwen family participated in the mountain worship.

Old Houye stayed up all night, he was old, and his health was not very good. Yuwen Chengchao persuaded Old Houye not to participate in the mountain worship ceremony, but even though he did not preside, he insisted on participating.

He knew very well that the Yuwen clan was about to migrate into the Pass. This was the last time the Yuwen family had worshipped a mountain god under Changling, and it was also the ancestor of the Yuwen family.

After noon, the mountain worship ceremony ended, and Yuwen Chengchao immediately ordered the tiger to go out and set off to return to the city.

The captured Wolf Qi, Hu Qi did not escort them back, but released them on the spot, making them return to Zhen County on their own to wait for their will.

The Zhen family's father and son died, the Black Feather General had also brought the Black Feather Night Crow to Xiling, and the Yuwen family and the Fan family had already surrendered to the court. Under such circumstances, Langqi naturally did not dare to act rashly.

General Black Feather wanted to recruit troops and horses to replenish his strength, and the cavalry under the Three Gate Lords was naturally the first choice.

These soldiers and horses are all well-trained, rich in combat experience, and they have enough courage and courage to organize the three soldiers and horses into one, which is naturally a strong cavalry corps.

The Tiger Cavalry and the Wolf Cavalry fought for a fight. Although they formed an enmity, this was after all the enmity of the Zhen family and the Yuwen family. When the two soldiers and horses finally belonged to the generals of Black Feather, they were comrades-in-arms. The grievances between them will eventually be resolved when facing a common enemy.

Rather than being driven by a family as a private army, these soldiers are naturally more willing to serve for the country under General Kuroba.

Yuan Shangyu led the army to escort Lao Hou Ye to the mansion, and immediately returned to the camp with Qin Xiao and his troops. According to Lao Hou Ye's instructions, all soldiers in the White Tiger Camp were not allowed to leave the camp until the Hei Yu general sent people to clear them.

However, Yuan Shangyu did not convey to the soldiers the news that General Heiyu wanted to be included. Naturally, the soldiers did not know the news that Yuwen's family was preparing to move into the customs. He only thought that it was because General Heiyu came to Xiling, so the commander gave the order. No one is allowed to leave the camp.

For several days in a row, the lieutenant battalion dared not leave the barracks every step of the way. In addition to training, in his spare time, he would talk excitedly about the Black Feather General and the Black Feather Night Crow under his hand. Not in vain.

In addition to daily training, Qin Xiao practiced martial arts alone in the tent, but in his heart he was looking forward to the reception of General Black Feather.

I was practicing in the tent that day, and heard Chen Zhitai’s rough voice outside the tent: "Lord Young Master!" Knowing that it was Yuwen Chengchao, he quickly collected his skills and got up to welcome out of the tent. When he saw Yuwen Chengchao, he stood outside the tent. A few steps away, under the setting sun, the entire camp was golden, and Yu Wen Chengchao carried his back with one hand and looked at the barracks in the distance, looking quite lonely.
