In the camp tent under the pass, Gao Yue and Wei Gao both frowned and sat face to face.

"Taiden City, as its name suggests, surrounds the highlands and fortresses. Previously, Xibo Cage Official Ma Dingde once made a statement that Mang had built more than 50 forts. There are roughly two roads leading to Taicheng. One is to cross Qingxi Pass and Papaya Ridge, and attack the east side along the shore; the other is to enter Taibei Valley and attack the north side. However, no matter which one is to guard Xibozi, it is really difficult!" Wei Gao stared at the sand table and said staggeringly.

"Now, Mangre has lost his military power in the ruling state and has been huddled in the Wuyou City of Victoria. This place is led by Qizangzangzhaizhe..." After Gao Yue said that, he held up his chin with his fingers, and then said, "If you have a good plan, it is better to attack the heart."

Then Gao Yue used his finger to climb several mountain roads adjacent to Xifan territory in the state of Waizhou. "Lacheng, Nangong, Qinghai, Shenchuan, and Huichuan, the leader of Sanzhao, Liluo, who was attached to Xifan. These Xifan troops stationed in these routes may launch reinforcements to Dengtaicheng at any time."

"While attacking the heart, you must fight quickly and decide quickly." Wei Gaoru said, "The first bargaining chip of our army is the Lianglin and Fengpa, who are loyal to our Tang Dynasty in the Dongman area. They are familiar with the geography of Lizhou and Weizhou, which can provide us with great help."

Gao Yue nodded, "The second bargaining chip is the craftsmen and slaves of the Iron Official of Lizhou who came with me. They can use local materials and cast cannons that can siege the city, as well as flying stone machines."

"What a big cannon?"

"Xifan has never seen a great person before." Gao Yue made a very appropriate description.

"Good, pack beasts, silk is provided by our Xichuan and Du Huangshang's Dongchuan."

"When will Du Shangshu's reinforcements come?"

"Ten thousand Dongchuan soldiers can arrive at Qionglai Pass in about a few days to serve as our backup."

As he said that, Gao Yue placed the third black and white chess piece on the table, "There is a third bargaining chip, which is the King of Nanzhao Yi Mouxun. As long as Nanzhao is willing to surrender to Tang in time, he can stab the back with a fierce sword, and our army will surely achieve a complete victory!"

When Wei Gao heard the third bargaining chip, he couldn't help but feel a little worried. His mission went from Shimen Road to Dianchi Lake and then to the Nanzhao King Capital. It has been two or three months since then. He has not and cannot get an accurate reply. Everything can only depend on the performance of Zheng Zhi and Cui Zuoshi.

At this time, Gao Yue also sighed sadly, thinking to himself: "Civilization, I don't know if you can be competent for such a dangerous job. Be smarter and more ruthless! Chengwu and I immediately crossed Qionglai Mountain and went deep into Lizhou. When the state of Weizhou is responsible for you, Nanzhao will be responsible for you."

In Yangzhumei City by Erhai Lake, the boundless green sets off the clusters of white pagodas. On the avenue in front of the east gate of the royal capital, dozens of people below Cui Zuoshi and Zheng Zhi rode on their backs on horseback, dressed in a caravan, and came to the city gate in a mighty manner.

Under the East Gate, a team of Nanzhao's soldiers stepped forward and stopped them before refusing their horses.

Cui Zuoshi was as fat as a mountain, and his voice was loud. He bowed his hand on his panting mount and said to the leader Yu Yichang, asking Zheng, the Qingping official in the royal city, to come back to see him.

Seeing this fat man's domineering appearance, Yu Yichang didn't dare to neglect him. He immediately turned around, hurried into the inner yamen in the royal city with his sword, and informed him of the situation.

Zheng Hui and Duan Gupu knew that the Tang family delegation had arrived, so they did not dare to neglect them. While sending people to inform Yi Mouxun, they quickly came out to greet him in person.

Then, under the huge archway, Zheng Hui walked over with a platoon of soldiers. Cui Zuoshi and Zheng Ju quickly stepped forward to pay a gift.

This was the first time Zheng Hui wanted to meet Zheng Xi, and the two nodded knowingly, then approached and whispered and counted.

"Where is the Western Fan delegation in Naicheng?" Zheng Hui's biggest worry lies in this.

It turned out that during this period, Qi Shengtuo, the envoy of the Western Fan period, had been living in the inn with more than a hundred foreigners, constantly urging Yi Mouxun to take hostages to Zanpu, Lushe City, and also closely monitored the movements of the Nanzhao Wangting.

Zheng Zhi whispered: "The lives of the servants and Cui Mingfu should not be lost, and this mission should not be lost. Otherwise, the hatred between Nanzhao and the Tang Dynasty will never be eliminated!" Then Zheng Zhi actually made a "kill" gesture and immediately decided: "Please calculate the Qingping official's office to be settled, so......"

After whispering for a while, Zheng Hui made up his mind to nod, and then waved his hand to Duan Gupu behind him.

"Who will do it, who will enter the palace?" Cui Zuoshi asked Zheng Zi.

Zheng Zhi said: "You come to the palace and I will do it."

Cui Zuoshi saw Zheng Zi, who was thin and thin, and was a little worried, "It's better to do it."

"No, your appearance is fat, white and strong, and it is definitely not like the Southern people. It is easy to be exposed. It is more suitable for you to be a servant." As he said that, Zheng Zhi pointed to his face that had been darkened since he entered the stone gate.

So Cui Zuoshi did not hesitate and immediately divided it into two routes under the archway with Zheng Zhi.

Cui Zuoshi and several others followed Zheng Hui straight to the guest province of Yangjume Royal City;

Zheng Zhi was following the horse team and luggage, still dressed in a caravan, and followed Duan Gupu to the residence.

In the main hall of the royal city, Yi Mouxun, wearing Boluo tiger skin, summoned him in when he heard Zheng coming back to ask for an audience.

"Man Lichang, what's the matter?" Yi Mouxun asked his teacher and the Prime Minister of Nanzhao.

Zheng Hui said seriously: "The imperial edict (meaning His Majesty from Central Earth), the Tang family envoy has arrived."

Yi Mouxun was shocked and thought to say it, so he asked carefully: "Does Xifan Qishengtuo know about this? It's better not to let them know, otherwise Yuan and the entire Nanzhao would be in danger."

Zheng Hui smiled and said, "Of course Qishengtuo knows it."

Yi Mouxun was shocked for the second time, "Why did the Tang family delegation be so careless!"

"It was not because the Tang family was accidentally, but because I intentionally leaked this matter to Qishengtuo."

Zheng Hui's words made Yi Mouxun even more shocked. He immediately stood up and shouted: "Man Lichang, what is this intention?"

Zheng Hui immediately bowed and kowtowed, "Is it necessary to entrust the general (Queen of Nanzhao), promote the military (concubine), and the second (Qingwang of Nanzhao), and all the Qingping officials and the six Cao Jiushuang officials from both sides, and the officials from the six Caoshujiu Shuang, and now the imperial edicts can no longer be in the Tang and Tibet, and we must make a conclusion today. How can the imperial edict forget the previous shame of the defeat of the Xishu River? It is time to join forces with the Tang and the Borussia war against Tibet!"

"Man Lichang, Rong Yuan thought about it again. What if you let the envoys of the Tang family put on the clothes of the robbers, pretend to be a tribute mission from other countries, avoid Qishengtuo from Xifan, and ask Yuanxian to discuss with them carefully, what?" Yi Mouxun still did not make up his mind.

However, at this time, Cui Zuoshi knelt in front of the gate, bowed several times in the direction of Chang'an City in the north, and pushed the cloak clothes sent by Nanzhao Yu Yichang away, and said furiously: "I am a minister of the Tang Dynasty. I came to Yunnan to read the emperor's edict. How could the envoy of the superior country wear the cloak of the Southern Barbarians - take my court cloak!"

Then Cui Zuoshi's entourage took out the clothes from the box. Cui Zuoshi was wearing a crimson dress, wearing a white jade belt, holding a chord, and walked out loudly, walking to the gate of the Xifan Mission Office, which was in a mess.

As soon as Qishengtuo received the news that the Tang family delegation came to Yangjume City, he panicked with the group's followers and was discussing it.

At the gate, Cui Zuoshi held a chastity and stood there like a small hill, looking at them sideways.

Qi Shengtuo and his team were so scared that they almost fell on their backs.

Cui Zuoshi snorted coldly, without saying a word, he took a step and climbed the bluestone leading to the bronze gate of the royal city.
