After leaving the Lingao Post Station in the west of the capital, Gao Yue and Wei Gao took Fengxiang Mansion to enter Chencang.

At this time, Gao Yue was obviously worried. He wanted to go back to Zhongshan to Jingzhou, hoping to meet Wu Cailuan because he had agreed to Cailuan for the matter in advance.

However, he had just obtained the document and was the Observation and Defense Envoy of the Five Prefectures in Hanzhong. So now he went to Xingyuan Prefecture to "take office" rather than being promoted. However, the Tang Dynasty laws stipulated that officials had strict restrictions when taking office. From the moment they received the certificate, they had to work tirelessly until their destination, and they were not allowed to "stay" along the way. Therefore, Gao Yue could only temporarily give up the idea of ​​seeing Cailuan Master - he simply went to Xingyuan Prefecture and wrote a letter and asked Cailuan Master to come to his official residence.

When they passed by Fengxiang Mansion, Gao Yue and Wei Gao both submitted letters to the Grand Marshal Duan Xiushi who were stationed here, but before they could meet, they rushed to Fengzhou.

After entering Fengzhou, Gao Yue could understand the sorrow of Wei Gao as the governor here. His own Xingyuan Prefecture, Yangzhou and Lizhou, among which Xingyuan Prefecture had the largest population, with 33,000 households. Yangzhou originally had more than 18,000 households during the Kaiyuan period, but now there are only less than 3,000 households. Although Lizhou has the largest mountainous land, there were about 12,000 households during the Kaiyuan period. Now there are only 2,500 households, but together, there are at least 40,000 households. Wei Gao's two prefectures are even more pitiful. Fengzhou has more than 1,000 households and Xingzhou has only more than 900 households. The rest are all live-in (fanzi), so the Fengyi army was also supported by the imperial court's Duzhi Department.

At the Old Daochuan Post Station outside Fengzhou City, Wei Gao asked Liu Pi to write a delivery document and prepare to Gao Yue. After that, he brought his family and Fengyi Army to Dongchuan as the governor. Since then, Fengxing and the two prefectures were under the jurisdiction of Xingyuan Prefecture.

However, before Wen Mo could do it, several cavalry and horses arrived like flying. The leader of the Fengyi Army turned over and dismounted, knelt in front of the two envoys, shouting, "The capital is urgently reported to you, to prevent the autumn soldiers from changing!"

"What?" Gao Yue and Wei Gao were both very surprised.

The situation is as follows: the commander of Hezhongjie, Hun Yu, sent two thousand soldiers, and went to the boundary of Jingzhou with other soldiers, and prepared to build a city in Pingliang in the spring. General Ya was the former Li Huaiguang Changwu Army, Xu Tingguang, Xi Xiaojun, and Hun Yu asked the tent Yuhou Dynasty to supervise him. However, after passing Xianyang Fengtian City, he entered Jingzhou, he met Luo Yuanguang, the general of Shence Right Camp, and Han Qinxu, the general of the Shesheng General. Because when the Changwu Army rebelled, Shence entered the camp.

Luo Yuanguang once fought with Xu Tingguang, who was in the rebellious camp at that time. Xu Tingguang once criticized Luo Zukao (ancestor). Luo vowed to report it. As a result, at the bridge at the source of Wutingchuan, Luo Yuanguang and Han Qinxu rode their horses to chase Xu Tingguang. Da Xi Xiaojun and Wang Chao were in a wrong state and tried to reconcile. But Han Qinxu shouted, "The Changwu Army under Li Huaiguang's command is all rebellious, and everyone was able to kill him. Besides, Tingguang once humiliated General Luo Zukao!"

After saying that, Han Qinxu shot an arrow and hit Xu Ting's shoulder.

Xu Tingguang was caught off guard and fell off the horse. After Luo Yuanguang was beheaded by the sword, his body was even broken by Luo, comforting his ancestor's spirit.

Afterwards, Luo Yuanguang and Han Qinxu carried their heads and left, rushing back to the Shence Camp in Fengtian City.

Xu Tingguang's subordinates who died suddenly were furious and surrounded Da Xi Xiaojun and Wang Chao to ask for an explanation.

But these two people can do nothing.

First, after Li Huaiguang's death, the Changwu Army returned to the countryside and partly under Hun Yu's command. Because it had rebelled, its political status was very low and very sensitive;

Secondly, Luo Yuanguang is a Shence Army system, and the Shence Camp has always been arrogant and will not take the border army seriously at all, let alone the old subordinates of the Changwu Army who had rebelled;

Third, the father of the Shesheng general Han Qinxu happened to be Han Yougui, the current governor of Bining. Han Yougui was originally a subordinate of Li Huaiguang. After Li rebellion, he gave Changwu City to the court and was favored by the emperor. Killing Xu Tingguang can prove the complete separation between Han Yougui and the Changwu army, which had political stains.

So Da Xi Xiaojun and Wang Chaogan said that they could not explain to the soldiers.

The camp roar broke out that night, and the old soldiers of the Changwu Army shouted, "Han Yougui sent his son to commit crimes first, and then he would kill us!" Soon, terrifying and violent emotions swept across the camp. The soldiers forcibly held Wang Chaogan hostage, Da Xi Xiaojun passed through Linjing, and wanted to go to Yuanzhou to seek refuge in Xifan.

Fortunately, Gao Yue had noticed this situation in time at the beacon that had been repaired in Jingzhou camp and ignited the beacon fire. After leaving Jingyuan camp, Liu Haibin immediately sent his son Liu Guoguang and general Zhang Yufei, leading hundreds of light cavalry to suppress it.

In the end, although most of the infantrymen in the camp were recovered, Da Xi Xiaojun, who was afraid of being punished, led more than 200 cavalrymen, threw away all their armor, wore only short jackets and breeches, and rushed into the Hulu River. Finally, he actually passed through the "idle field" and arrived at the sand castle defended by Xifan, Yuanzhou.

Hu Qulu Ximeng, the commander of the Dasha Castle, saw Da Xi Xiaojun and Wang Chaogan, and said that the Emperor of the Tang family had stopped fighting and reconciled, so we should not leave you to destroy the alliance. After that, he would send the two back.

Da Xi Xiaojun and Wang Chaogan could only say to the Xifan general who wore silver to protest: "The Emperor of the Tang family wanted to take the alliance. Not only did he send hundreds of thousands of troops to continue to guard against the autumn, but he also built a large city in Pingliang, which was not far from the sand castle. He garrisoned 30,000 troops and 5,000 war horses. From then on, he would regain his territory to the south bank of the river."

Then Hu Qulu Ximeng felt that the problem was a little serious and hurriedly shouted: "Quickly send this bird envoy to destroy the sand castle, bring ten scouts, and quickly go to the east to make an emergency. In addition, let all the border officials prepare the fastest horses and inform all the soldiers and horses grazing in Qinghai (that is, the grassland area west of Liupan Mountain), bring bows and arrows, throw stones, animals, slaves and armor to gather here."

"Bu'er, Bu'er!" In front of the Sand Castle gate, the frightened bull was scattered and running. Hu Qulu Ximeng's most clever and brave warrior, carrying a wooden slip that penetrated with silver arrows, acted as the bird envoy. He and the ten scouts followed him rode a black horse, like eleven flying crows, whipping and scolding his mounts, heading towards the Qinzhou area, where Tianshui City was the place where the host general's military tent was located.

The so-called "Hongdao Magistrate" after conquering Helong, Xifan imitated the "Border Inspection Theory" established by the governor of the Tang Dynasty, also called "Bde-blon" in charge of the military and political affairs of all the prefectures in Longyou. In addition, the North Dao Magistrate was also set up in the Hexi Corridor, responsible for attacking and defending the Anxi Beiting and Uighurs of the Tang Dynasty, while the South Dao Magistrate was responsible for the Tang Dynasty's Sanchuan Fangzhen and Nanzhao, and the West Dao Magistrate was responsible for the western area of ​​Xifan, responsible for eroding the Anxi and Beiting of the Tang Dynasty, and monitoring the Tianzhu area. In addition, there were also famous generals, stationed in Qinghai area. In this way, there were five Dedao Magistrates in Xifan.

The big argument for border patrol at this time was Shang Jiezan, who had previously sent troops to Qingshiling, Jingzhou, and was also the toughest hawk in Xifan.
