Chapter 967: Maneuvering

~7 min read 1,202 words

Ting County was located on the northeast edge of Xiangshui Commandery, almost outside the county city was the boundary of another commandery. This small county city had not yet encountered war, but at this moment, all the commandery officials from the Commandery Governor down to the Mobile Corps Commander were crowded in the city, and the man-made disaster was fully eaten.

The Commandery Governor took all the officials and deputy generals to hide here, so it was not considered abandoning the territory and fleeing. But if the rebel army really hit, they would have to flee then.

At this time, the Commandery Governor was surrounding the map with a group of officials and deputy generals, staring at Guantun County. The map was clearly marked, and Guantun County had been occupied by the Great Tang Qingyang Military Governor.

The Commandery Governor turned and asked, "Have you sensed the boundary stone?"

An old cultivator opened his chaotic eyes and said, "I have sensed it. The Guantun County boundary stone has not moved, the boundary stones of the surrounding areas and counties have all been uprooted, and now there are eight boundary stones in Guantun County. Except for Guantun and Ting County, only one boundary stone has not moved."

The Commandery Governor's face was ugly, "Twenty counties in this commandery, now only twelve boundary stones are left, and eight boundary stones have been destroyed?"

All the officials also had faces like earth. The boundary stone was uprooted, and the crime was more serious than losing the territory. After the boundary stone was uprooted and destroyed, it was simply unforgivable, beheading was not enough, and the clan must be executed.

The Assistant Regional Commander suddenly said, "Why does Guantun County have so many boundary stones?"

Another person said, "Not good! That person wants to take the boundary stone and run away!"

"What kind of Qingyang Military Governor, he is clearly here to steal our boundary stones!"

"Commandery Governor, you are the nephew-in-law of Elder Xu, this Great Tang official ran to our Ji Kingdom territory to grab things, we can't just let him run away!"

The Commandery Governor's face was cloudy and sunny. After a moment, he had made up his mind and said, "Send someone to Guantun County, let that so-called Qingyang Military Governor withdraw from our commandery territory and return all nineteen boundary stones! If not, this official will write a memorial, and he will be rebelling!"

All the officials heard that the number of boundary stones the Commandery Governor asked for was wrong, so they were clear in their hearts and were silent.

Receiving the reprimand manifesto sent by the Commandery Governor's envoy, Little Wei Yuan was first surprised, then looked seriously at the Confucian envoy standing straight in the hall, then looked at the manifesto in his hand, and wondered, "A liar?"

The left and right replied, "Doesn't look like one from the clothes, but the thing is done like one."

Little Wei Yuan frowned, "From the city gate to the main hall of the Military Governor's office, the road is not short. Can't you see the scene in the city? My so many elite soldiers and fierce generals, can't they deter this guy?"

The Confucian student was originally standing with his neck stiff, and at this time said, "I came by the order of the Commandery Governor. Even if you have thousands of troops, what do I have to fear! If you dare to touch me today, when the imperial court's army opens in the future, it will immediately destroy you! Let you die without a burial place!"

Little Wei Yuan shook the letter in his hand and said to the left and right, "I only received eight boundary stones, but this guy said I have nineteen boundary stones! Hehe, balancing the accounts on my head, he is also a talent! Hmm? Not only balancing the accounts, but also wanting to earn two more?"

The left and right were all hehe, to show laughing to death.

Little Wei Yuan looked at the Confucian student again and said, "This Ji Kingdom is truly strange. No matter what kind of edge material, as long as it touches the government, it immediately jumps up and down, arrogant, wishing to step on everyone he knows. To be honest, the mad dogs I have seen are not as crazy as this."

The left and right looked at each other, although they knew the Military Governor was right, they didn't know how to answer.

The Confucian student was already trembling with anger, pointing at Little Wei Yuan and saying, "You are so bold! Do you know who I am?"

Little Wei Yuan tore the Commandery Governor's letter into two halves in front of him, and then said, "This gentleman seems to want to leave his name in history, then let's not fulfill his wish. Take him down and behead him, and don't leave any of those who came with him. When two armies fight, beheading the envoy is a tradition. But you remember to handle it cleanly, and don't leave any trace. You must not let the historian find this gentleman's name."

The soldiers in the hall immediately grabbed the Confucian student and dragged him down like a chicken.

The Confucian student was still scolding and threatening at first, but when he saw himself being dragged further and further away, he was afraid, begging for mercy desperately. Seeing Little Wei Yuan ignored him, he turned to threaten the soldiers again, opening and closing his mouth with the sentence "Do you know who I am?"

Little Wei Yuan tore the letter into pieces, and a young Assistant Regional Commander cultivated by Azure Void said, "Boundary Lord, wait! This letter is ironclad evidence, enough to prove that the Commandery Governor is incompetent and rebellious, enough to behead his dog head!"

Little Wei Yuan smiled and said, "Just a Commandery Governor, why bother with him? Besides, people need evidence only when they are alive."

The young Assistant Regional Commander felt it carefully and was thoughtful. Little Wei Yuan said, "You go and see which rebel army came to send people today. Then you tell them that there is another boundary stone in Ting County, and let them send it over."

The Assistant Regional Commander admired Little Wei Yuan to the ground and went away hurriedly.

Little Wei Yuan returned to the back study and began to write to the Tang Room, requesting a reward.

The memorial started with his defeat of the rebel army as soon as he arrived in the Ji Kingdom, recovering a thousand miles of lost territory, and beheading three hundred thousand. Then he flattered Emperor Jing as a wise monarch rarely seen in the ages, and finally asked for a reward, asking to be enfeoffed as the Xianghan Garrison.

After the memorial was written, Little Wei Yuan ordered someone to send a map of the Ji Kingdom, circled the Xiangshui Commandery, looked at it and felt it was not enough, and circled the Hanfan Commandery next to it, which was considered to make up the two words Xianghan. As for the closer Feng Yuan Commandery, Little Wei Yuan turned a blind eye. ===== CHAPTER 968 =====
