Li Jiancheng looked at Li Anyan and said, "What's going on?"

The Concierge House imprisoned the leaders and chiefs of tribes and countries for more than 30 years. These people were all dissatisfied and dissatisfied. No one in the court would naively think that they would really surrender. Especially Jie Li and Songtsen Gampo, both of whom were the kings of the same country, and they ordered the whole country to be disobedient.

If they truly surrender now, that would be a strange thing.

Li Anyan smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, I am afraid that there will be contributions from the seven sects and five hopes, the four surnames of Hedong, and even the Guanlong nobles in this matter!"

"Who is involved in the aristocratic family?" Li Jiancheng looked at Li Anyan, with a strong murderous aura in his voice.

Li Anyan shook his head and said, "There is no definite evidence. The left supervisor's 67 spies, 37 secret stakes, and two regiments of Zuowu Hou Weixun, and more than 600 soldiers in the mansion. This is not something that one family can do. It is very likely that they all participated!"

Li Jiancheng nodded and his face became calmer.

It’s not that he didn’t care about the tragic deaths of these more than 600 people, but that he really believed Li Anyan’s words, which was definitely not a ruling. The left supervisor’s guards were responsible for the security of the palace ban on the surface. In fact, their secret responsibilities were the same as those of the hundreds of cavalry in the Qin Palace, and they were responsible for supervising all officials and inspecting the unjust officials.

Of course, in the Xuanwu Gate Incident, the entire left-level guards were almost wiped out, and they all chose to be loyal to Li Yuan. The left-level guard General Yu Yanzhang was killed in battle, and eight generals of the cavalry (equivalent to the Zhechong Duwei) and forty-six captains were all killed in battle. Even grassroots officers at the brigade level were killed in battle.

Li Shimin had a harmonious relationship with the aristocratic families. He used the left and right Qingdao to expand the left and right guard of the left and right guard of the East Palace to expand the left and right guard. Li Anyan served as the general of the left guard. However, the officers and even soldiers below were recommended by major families and families who participated in the East Palace. They could accurately find the secret stakes of the left guard and discover the secret lines in time, indicating that someone at the left guard had rebelled, and the level was not low, and they had a lot of power.

As the saying goes, there are no eternal friends in the world, only eternal interests. When Li Jiancheng was the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, almost all the aristocratic families turned to Li Jiancheng, and Li Shimin only represented the interests of poor families and military generals. However, as the two decided to win, especially the reforms after Li Jiancheng ascended the throne, it touched the cheese of the aristocratic families.

The government of the aristocratic families suffered heavy losses and silent confrontation. Li Jiancheng used minor officials to replace officials to clear out a large number of officials from aristocratic families. Now the court is filled with a large number of poor and common people, which makes the aristocratic families feel like they are stabbed in the throat. Although the aristocratic families are dissatisfied, Li Jiancheng used the court's fiscal revenue and gold mine income to pay salaries to the soldiers through military reform, which is deeply encouraging the morale of the army.

The military stood on Li Jiancheng's side. Even if the aristocratic families opposed Li Jiancheng, they did not dare to react too aggressively. They could only lie dormant in secret and wait for the opportunity.

At this moment, Wei Zheng, who was silent on the side, said the key to the problem in one sentence: "Your Majesty, why do they do this?"

Although the children of the aristocratic families who were guarding the Left Supervisor acted as internal supporters, they solved the secret stumps of the Concierge House and sent dead soldiers to attack the Zuowuhou garrison and sent the leaders of the countries and divisions of the Concierge House out of Chang'an City.

Even if they can return to their respective tribes smoothly, they can take over their own tribes, then arm themselves into an army, and counterattack the Tang Dynasty.

However, the heroic troops of the Tang Dynasty were not vegetarians.

I'm afraid that as soon as they raised the flag, they were crushed and tied up by the Tang army, and locked up again back to Chang'an City.

Li Jiancheng looked at Wei Zheng and said, "What do you mean..."

Wei Zheng smiled and said, "Jie Li may not be willing to give up, but I have already placed the Turks in dispersed place. Even if he returns to the royal court in Mobei, he may not be able to gather his troops. The same is true for Songtsen Gampo unless..."

Li Jiancheng said: "Unless, they are sure to win!"

Li Jiancheng's eyes immediately fell on the huge map. The territory of the Tang Dynasty was like a huge crabapple leaf at this time, from Liaodong to Anxi, from Lake Berga to the Indochina Peninsula.

Suddenly, Li Jiancheng's eyes fell on Liaodong.

According to the strategic preview of the Ministry of War, the elite troops of the Andong Protectorate should be concentrated in the Pyongyang area. From Jizhou to Pyongyang, there are only less than 20,000 Tang soldiers guarding this thousands of miles of border. On the thousands of miles of border, 20,000 people are like a can of water in the sea.

Li Jiancheng's face changed drastically: "Liaodong?"

Wei Zheng sighed and said, "I'm afraid it's more than that!"

Wei Zheng's hand slowly headed east from Rouran Shanyutai, and then to Lulong Village!

Li Jiancheng's face became even more ugly.

Once it is true as Wei Zheng expected, the entire Northeast will be corrupt and out of control.

However, Wei Zheng shook his head and said, "It's meaningless to do this. The Tang army navy is on the sea and cannot block Liaodong."

Li Jiancheng's eyes lit up suddenly.

It was exactly what Wei Zheng said that the imperial court had the greatest advantage that it controlled the largest navy of this era, more than 100 five-tooth warships, including Jiangning Shipbuilding House and Quxian Shipbuilding House. Not only the Shipbuilding House and Jingkou Shipbuilding House, it could raise 100,000 navigators at any time, from the Bohai Sea, the Yellow Sea, and the East Sea. It can be said that there is almost no barrier within the four seas.

No matter who it is, they cannot stop the Tang army's navy.

At this moment, a little eunuch took the eunuch's unique small steps and rushed to the hall. The little eunuch was about to report to Li Jiancheng, and Li Jiancheng made a ban gesture.

Wei Zheng's fingers turned from the Rouran Shanyu Platform to the direction of Yunzhong.

Li Jiancheng shook his head and said, "Xue Yantuo Bazhuo, he is powerless to suddenly have an Anbei Protectorate's defense line!"

"Have your Majesty ever thought about what if the Anbei Army betrayed?"

Wei Zheng continued: "In the fourth year of Kaiyuan, the imperial court established the Anbei Dadu Prefecture, and under the jurisdiction of Hanhai Governor's Office (Uighur tribe), Yanran Governor's Office (Duotuoge tribe), Jinwei Governor's Office (Pugu tribe), Youling Governor's Office (Baye Gu tribe), Guilin Governor's Office (Tongluo tribe), Lushan Governor's Office (Sijie tribe), Jiankun Governor's Office (Jie Gu tribe), Yinshan Governor's Office (Gelu tribe), etc. Eight Governor's Office, Gaolanzhou (Hun tribe), Gaoquezhou (Huxue tribe), Jiluzhou (Xijie tribe), Jitian Prefecture (Adou tribe), Yuxi Prefecture (Qixin tribe), Linzhou (Sijie tribe), Yanzhou (Bai tribe), Xuanquezhou (Guli tribe), each with the commander of the tribe as the governor and the governor..."

Speaking of this, Li Jiancheng's face was so gloomy that it was about to twist out water.

The Anbei Protectorate has eleven prefectures under its jurisdiction, and a total of eleven Zhechong Prefectures have been established, with a total force of 16,500 troops. However, they have jurisdiction over eight governors' ten prefectures, with a total of more than three million nomadic divisions. According to the customary methods of the nomadic people, the entire army is full of troops. The Anbei Protectorate has not only blocked the 70,000 troops of Bazhuo, but it is a serious problem whether it can defend the Yunzhong Line.

Li Jiancheng hesitated: "Qin Qiong shouldn't betray him, right?"

Wei Zheng shook his head and said, "Qin Qiong has an old relationship with the deposed King of Qin!"

At this time, the little eunuch said, "All officials are here, please give your majesty a promotion!"

Li Anyan said: "Your Majesty, the left supervisor's guard is no longer trustworthy. Please issue an order to immediately replace all the Yuan Sui Imperial Guards at the Left Supervisor. Regardless of whether they betray Your Majesty or not, for the sake of Your Majesty's safety... I have to be careful!"

Before Li Anyan could finish speaking, Li Jiancheng waved his hand and said, "Xuan Wei Wenzhong!"

Wei Wenzhong was originally the deputy lieutenant of the Right Guard of the Eastern Palace, and later followed Chen Ying to fight south and north, and gradually made contributions and was promoted to the current general of the left-leading guard. The leading guard was followed by the Sui Dynasty system and reorganized from the left imperial guards. He was in charge of the palace and the guards of the Yifu, and all the guards of the Yifu, and those who were fired in the outer palace were assigned to them. If the troops were divided into the main guards, they would know that the west side of the imperial city was the auxiliary shop, the capital city, and the gates of the Yuancheng.

Although Wei Wenzhong has limited abilities and no extraordinary talent, Sheng Zai is the most loyal.

...

The steam engine train was driving on the ground, and Chen Ying had no time to appreciate the scenery along the way because his eyelids were twitching. Of course, Chen Ying was not superstitious. He believed that his eyelids were not making money or because of disaster, but because he was too tired and needed rest.

As the Fan family in Qingcheng passed away from Chen family, Shuzhong Daomen paid a total of 8 million stagnant of money to Chen Ying and obtained 40% of the shares from Chang'an to Yazhou Chidao.

Yazhou is Ya'an, which is later generations. This is the starting point of the world-famous ancient tea-horse road, because Ya'an produces tea and is the source of world tea culture. In the original history, from the Tang and Song dynasties, the Tang Dynasty began to trade with foreigners in the border areas. At first, they used copper coins to buy horses from ethnic groups outside the border areas. However, after they were discovered that ethnic groups outside the border areas melted copper coins to create weapons, the Song dynasty stopped purchasing products from ethnic groups outside the border areas with money, but instead changed to the bartering trading model.

For Tibetans outside the border, they found that tea can detoxify and eliminate diseases, transform greasy, and aid digestion. Therefore, tea became an indispensable thing in the life of Tibetans who eat dairy products with high meat, oil and fat as their staple foods all year round. This is a disguised control. Controlling tea is equivalent to controlling Tibetans outside the border who were not accepting education at that time. Through this transaction, it not only strengthened the military power of the court (purchasing war horses), but also weakened the military power of Tibetans outside the border (a large amount of war horse loss and the Central Plains culture that followed tea leaves), so there was a tea-horse transaction, so there was an ancient tea-horse road.

Of course, although the Tang Dynasty has not shortage of horses, the merchants of Bashu have explored this business path and can reach India from then on. However, Yazhou is not the Central Plains after all, and its products are not as rich as the Central Plains. Their specialty tea cannot satisfy their appetite.

The proposal of the construction of the road from Chang'an to Yazhou is also in line with the plan of the Chenying Railway's main artery. Some merchants from Shu are willing to pay the bill, but Chenying has no reason to refuse.

If merchants in other places were like the merchants and aristocratic clans who were willing to cooperate with Chen Ying, take risks and share the benefits brought by Chi Dao, Chen Ying was willing to build Chi Dao to every state of the Tang Dynasty.

Ma Zhou also brought the cooperation intention of the Tang Dynasty's royal merchants. The Tang Dynasty's royal merchant alliance was willing to invest in the construction of the road from Lingzhou to the Hanhai. They were even more stingy and were only willing to pay three million guan to obtain 70% of the road. Chen Ying naturally refused without hesitation, with less than eight million guan away from negotiations.

Chen Ying was not worried about the sincerity of the cooperation between the Tang Dynasty Royal Merchant Alliance. Once he returned to Chang'an, he would definitely scold their royal families to the point of being terrified.

Just as Chen Ying woke up in a daze and half asleep, the train stopped abruptly. The huge inertia almost caused Chen Ying to fall off the train's sleeper. Fortunately, his bed was about one meter wide and had enough space for Chen Ying to roll.

Chen Ying's head hit the wall of the carriage, covered his head and asked, "Come on, what's going on?"

Guo Luo was in the carriage outsider: "Report to the master, it is said that there was a malfunction in the front road!"

Chen Ying opened the car window and found that he had arrived in a mountainous area at this time.

I am tired when I take the train, and I am even more tired when I take the steam train.

Chen Ying picked up his cloak, walked off the train, and walked along the road towards the so-called accident site.

Not long after, Chen Ying and his guards came to the accident site. This was a valley. A large stone of more than 30,000 to 50,000 kilograms rolled down from the hillside, which was crossing the railway tracks.

An official in blue shirt came to solve the problem with a team of slave workers. Dozens or hundreds of thin-dressed slave workers tied them to stones with crowbars and ropes, preparing to move the stones away.

Chen Ying instantly discovered the problem. It was nighttime, and the official's reaction was too fast. According to Guo Luo's instructions, it was still sixty miles away from Yanshi. I felt the shock on the train. I could reach the accident site from Yanshi City, which was sixty miles away in a quarter of an hour?

Unless, they can drive a car or take a plane.

Secondly, there are obvious traces of artificial carving on this stone. Although it is disguised, it can be clearly seen that according to the slope of the hillside, the kinetic energy of the stone will obviously smash through the rails of the road and rush to the bottom of the valley.

What's even more unusual is that these people are all middle-aged men and have murderous aura on them.

Chen Ying hurriedly retreated. At this moment, the green-robed official picked up a crossbow from his sleeve and shouted: "Kill the thief!"

The killers who were mixed with slave labor all the time picked up the crossbow machine.

At least twenty crossbow machines were aimed at Chen Ying.

Guo Luo shouted: "Master, be careful!"

Chen Ying also began to retreat quickly.

However, the assassins still pulled the crossbow machine.

"Swish swish swish swish..." A dense sound of breaking through the air sounded.
