Chapter 85 The details of the rebels
When Chen Guang arrived at Yanqi Town, Li Siye could say that he was already looking forward to Qiushui. Of course, he allowed the so-called rebels to rage near Yuli City, not entirely because of Chen Guang.
"Chen Lang, I've been waiting for you. Come on, this half of the burning knife was saved by finally saving."
In the office of the garrison, Li Siye said to Chen Guang, who was exhausted and then ordered the chef to serve roast lamb and other meat, "I'll do it first."
Looking at Li Siye who was drinking the knife in the small cup without changing his face, Chen Guang had to sigh that the physical fitness of this powerful general was very strong. How long has it been passed? This powerful general was probably used to the strong general.
"Brother Li, wait until someone fills his stomach, and then accompany Brother Li to get drunk before he can stop."
Chen Guang knew that this wine was inevitable, so he grabbed the whole roasted lamb that Ya Bing had just brought, tore up a piece of lamb leg and started eating it, which made Li Siye happy.
Li Siye, who also pulled a lamb leg and chewed it, burst into laughter, "I knew that Chen Lang was not a vulgar person, not like those who were too young to behave like to be polite."
Half of the lamb leg was cushioned, Chen Guang casually put the small cup in front of the desk and raised his glass to Li Siye and said, "Brother Li, do it!"
"Dry!"
After Li Siye and Shen Guang clinked, they also raised their necks and drank them dry. After exhaling the heat, they shouted, "Happy."
At this time, summer is about to pass, and at night, the weather is cold. The burning knife is stuffy, but it makes him feel warm and comfortable.
"Drinking with Shen Lang is so comfortable."
Thinking that none of his subordinates could drink with him like Chen Lang, Li Siye couldn't help but sigh after drinking several cups.
Chen Guang also smiled when he heard this, "Drinking with Brother Li is much better than accompanying Feng Ershuang."
"Oh, what do you mean?"
Li Siye, who was slightly drunk, couldn't help but feel secretly happy when he heard Chen Guang's words. He remembered that Chen Lang and Feng Er had a very good relationship.
"Feng Eryin can't eat a few cups of this knife in half a day, and it's so anxious."
"Hahahaha, Chen Lang, don't have wine with Feng Er in the future."
Li Siye laughed even louder. He could think of Feng Er's vulgar appearance, holding a small cup, slowly whispering wine.
After the joke, Chen Guang put down the wine cup in his hand and said, "Brother Li, I wonder what the situation is in the rebels here?"
"Don't worry, please listen to someone's detailed explanation."
Li Siye also put down the wine cup. Although Feng Er said that Chen Lang came here just to go through the motions, he could see that Chen Lang didn't want to be a spectator. At present, the matter of the rebels is simple and troublesome, but he has always been good at killing people, and some things can be heard of Chen Lang's high opinions.
"Chen Lang should know that this Yanqi was originally a great country in Jixi until later..."
Li Siye has been in Yanqi for several years, so he naturally knows Yanqi's situation, and even Feng Changqing may not be as good as him.
When Chen Guang listened to Li Siye's statement, he realized that Yanqi was the hegemonic country in the Western Regions during the Han Dynasty. Until the weak in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, he was replaced by Kucha. However, Yanqi still annexed the Han Dynasty's Weixu, Yuli, Shanguo and other countries.
This rebellion in Yanqi was caused by the death of Lao Wang Long Chang'an and the new king was unable to obey after ascending the throne, so he could only impose heavy taxes on these annexed vassal states. As a result, the local tyrants in these places rose up to resist, which led to the deterioration of the situation.
Chen Guang also saw the new king of Yanqi Kingdom when he was in Yancheng. He remembered that he was a martial artist, and his name was Long Tuqi Shi.
"Our king's mother is a blue Turk, and she has always been a minister and a wealthy chief in the country."
Li Siye was also very troubled when he thought of the Yanqi King who had only hunting and drinking. He was also a good man. Although he was very respectful and loyal to the Tang Dynasty, he was just a fool. He was still a bully and fearful of the strong. He did not dare to offend the rich chiefs in the country, but he dared to go to the mountain country and wait for the old places of the vassal state to impose heavy taxes. As a result, he did not want to send out his subordinates to be more greedy and vicious than the other, and finally forced the powerful people in these two places to rebel.
"Chen Lang, this mountain country has long been merged by Yanqi, but the powerful people in the two places have now raised the banner of restoring the country and sent envoys to a certain place to ask the Tang Dynasty to uphold justice."
The reason why Li Siye has not sent troops for a long time is mainly because he wants to use this matter to teach Yanqi people a lesson. In addition, he thinks that it doesn't seem to be harmful to restore these two small countries, but this kind of thing cannot be decided by him, a side general, at will.
"I'm a little confused now. I wonder what Chen Lang thinks should do?"
Li Siye looked at Chen Guang. Of course, he knew that the best way was to issue official documents to the Protectorate. Feng Er had always been the smartest and must know how to choose, but he didn't want to get Feng Er to take advantage of it.
Chen Guang did not answer immediately. Li Siye asked him about this, which showed his trust in him. His answer was likely to affect whether Li Siye would send troops to quell the rebellion between the two places in the future, so he had to consider it.
Seeing Chen Guang pondering, Li Siye did not disturb him. He thought about it for many days, but he couldn't make up his mind. The gold, silver and jade sent by the powerful men from the two places are now piled in the backyard of his mansion. Otherwise, how could he be so embarrassed?
After a long time, Chen Guang finally said in a deep voice, "Brother Li should send troops to quell the chaos quickly. The so-called restoration of the country is absolutely impossible."
"Why did Chen Lang teach me?"
Li Siye frowned. It was not that he couldn't bear to leave the gold, silver and jade, but that he wanted to know how Chen Guang viewed this matter.
"Brother Li, there were thirty-six countries when Zhang Qian opened the Western Regions during the Han Dynasty. How many are there now? Yanqi is one of the four towns in Anxi. If we agree to the danger, the two places in the mountain country will restore the country, what will the royal family in the other three towns think?"
When Li Siye heard Chen Guang's words, he was shocked and realized that it was a trivial matter for the restoration of the country by the two places, but the key was what the royal families in the other three towns would think. If they felt that this was the rebellion of the powerful people instructed by the Tang Dynasty to rebel by the old lands of the small country that they had annexed, would they be disloyal to the Tang Dynasty?
"If it weren't for Chen Lang, something was almost a mess."
Li Siye was very afraid. If he was really angry, he wrote to the Protectorate's Office and exposed the fact that the powerful people in the two places wanted to restore the country, no matter what the final result was, he would probably not be able to get it.
"I will send troops to Yuli City tomorrow."
Li Siye, who was awakened by Chen Guang, immediately made a decision. Chen Guang also said to the side, "Brother Li has been delaying for a long time, and it is not a day or two. I think it would be better to send someone to Nanhe City and ask that king to send troops to quell the rebellion with us."
The Nanhe City in Chen Guang's mouth is Yanqi Capital Yuanqu City, but the Tang Dynasty prefers this name.
"I'll listen to Chen Lang."
Li Siye couldn't understand why Chen Guang wanted to bring that king to suppress the rebellion, but he would not object to the king if he was not bad at all.
