Impeachment will make me stronger, and I will be invincible on the road to death.

Chapter 175 Heading to the Southwest
The young man frowned and said, "But in this case, we will be exposed in Chang'an City. If someone discovers us..."

"Have you forgotten? It was Yang Yanzhang's own decision to go to the southwest. If he could die in the southwest, the direction of the wind above the court would have to change, and even the Queen Mother would have to surrender. At that time, we can take advantage of the lack of power in the Tang Dynasty. Lord, contact other princes to carve up the territory of the Tang Dynasty." The man in white said viciously.

"But in this case, we will be completely exposed." The young man said worriedly: "When the time comes..."

"Don't worry, I have a plan." The man in white sneered: "Li Yuanhao in the northwest, Pei Renji in Shuzhou, and Zhang Ju in the eastern border, they are all remnants of the Great Xia Dynasty."

"Sir, they have a sworn hatred with the Tang Dynasty, why do they want to unite?" the young man asked strangely.

"Because they lack money, food, grass, and weapons. If they don't have enough strength, they will become refugees and eventually starve to death in the wilderness. Only with enough wealth can they recruit more soldiers." The man in white said: " They need help."

"So that's it. As expected of a young master, his thoughts are far-sighted." The young man said with emotion.

Then he couldn't help but ask: "Master, why are you pretending to be Li Yuanhao, Pei Renji and Zhang Ju? Aren't you afraid of offending the Tang Dynasty court?"

The man in white shook his head and said: "Li Yuanhao and Pei Renji are the remnants of the Great Xia Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty naturally does not allow them to exist. Zhang Ju is unlucky and may become the souls of the Tang Dynasty, but they are not the remnants of the Great Xia Dynasty. And Zhang Ju is Even if Datang suspects the people on our side, there is nothing they can do against us."

"Young Master is wise." The young man raised his thumb and praised.

……

Two months later!

Yang Yanzhang finally arrived at the southwest border, and then went all the way north into the southwest.

Yang Yanzhang is a cautious person, so he left secret codes along the way.

The people on his side were looking for Yang Yanzhang according to this code, so no one could follow him along the way.

In this way, Yang Yanzhang led his censors to the southwest without any danger, preparing to record everything in the southwest, taxes, and the status of vegetarian meals for corpses.

On this day, Yang Yanzhang led everyone to drive all night, and finally saw the rolling mountains and green plants all over the mountains and plains.

"Finally resisted." Yang Yanzhang breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the southwest is a remote and remote area, it has a beautiful environment and pleasant scenery, especially the mountains and clear waters here.

This kind of place is completely different from Chang'an City.

And there are abundant resources here.

"Let's go on the road and try to reach the target village tonight." Yang Yanzhang ordered.

"Sir, you can't waste time, otherwise you will delay tomorrow's work."

"Brother Yang, listen to me." Suddenly a voice sounded, and a carriage stopped in front of everyone.

Yang Yanzhang frowned slightly, and after a moment of silence, he said calmly: "What's the matter?"

An old voice came from the carriage and said: "I came to take over the southwest according to the emperor's order. During this period, I will be responsible for Brother Yang's safety."

"Who are you?" Yang Yanzhang asked warily.

"My name is Li Xuance, and I was sent by the emperor to take over the southwest." Li Xuance said proudly.

"Oh!" Yang Yanzhang said calmly with an unpredictable light in his eyes: "My duty is to investigate the rebel party in the southwest and apprehend the traitors. Are you ordered by the court? Or are you sent here by the Queen Mother?"

Li Xuance's expression changed for a moment, but he finally regained his arrogance and hummed: "I am the imperial envoy appointed by His Majesty personally, responsible for southwest affairs."

Yang Yanzhang's pupils shrank suddenly when he heard this. He judged from Li Xuance's tone that the other party should be a eunuch.The Queen Mother sent someone to take charge of the southwest?
Doesn't that mean that the emperor has noticed the rebellion in the southwest and sent people to quell the rebellion?

This made Yang Yanzhang suddenly nervous, and he immediately said: "Brother Li, do you know that the situation in the southwest is very chaotic now. The rebels from the countries in the Western Regions are making trouble everywhere, and there are more and more rebels in the southwest. You go to the southwest alone, and there is a little trouble." If you are not careful, your life may be in danger.”

"Haha." Li Xuance didn't take it seriously at all. Instead, he sarcastically said, "Why don't you, Master Yang, bother with this?"

"I don't dare." Yang Yanzhang said hurriedly.

Li Xuance nodded with satisfaction and said calmly: "But my life was given by the Queen Mother. No matter how dangerous it is, as long as it is the Queen Mother's order, I am not afraid of going to the sword mountain and the sea of ​​fire. Brother Yang, if you are willing to go to the southwest with me, I can Let you sit in the southwest until the counter-insurgency is over."

Yang Yanzhang's face changed drastically, and then he said bitterly: "Brother Li, since the Queen Mother has sent someone here, what else can I say? I just hope you won't point fingers at what I am doing in the southwest."

After Yang Yanzhang agreed, the group continued on their way.

"Master Yang, is this Mr. Li, the commander of the Jinwu Guards beside the Queen Mother?" the subordinate officer brought by Yang Yanzhang asked in a low voice.

"Yes!" Yang Yanzhang nodded and said, "Our mission has been completed. We can come to the southwest smoothly this time, all thanks to Commander Li. When we understand what happened this time, I will definitely thank Commander Li again."

"Thank you, Mr. Yang." A smile appeared on Li Xuance, the leader of the Jinwu Guard, and he knew that his goal had been achieved.

The next step is to wait for the opportunity. As long as Yang Yanzhang uses his connections, he believes that he will be able to leave Southwest soon.

At that time, he will be able to break away from the control of the Queen Mother and become a free man. With the military power in his hands, it is possible that he will succeed in ascending to the position of supreme leader in the Ninth Five-Year Plan in the future.

Thinking of this, Li Xuance felt extremely excited.

.....................

On the other side, a man about 30 years old, with fair skin and handsome appearance, stood on the treetops and looked into the distance: "Li Xuance actually came to the southwest. It took no effort to break through iron shoes and find nowhere."

"Why is Yang Yanzhang so slow? If so, I'm afraid it will be too late."

The man looked at the sky and murmured to himself: "Well, since I'm here, let's go talk to him. Maybe we can get some information."

The man jumped up and flew away lightly.

...............

When Yang Yanzhang and his party crossed the mountains and came to a small town, they found that the town seemed a little strange.

The town is sparsely populated, there are almost no shops on the streets, and the town looks particularly deserted.

"Sir, why don't we take a rest first and then hit the road tomorrow?" the lieutenant asked in a low voice.

Yang Yanzhang shook his head and said: "No, we must report to the county government as soon as possible. We are not far from Northwest County here, and we must speed up."

"Then speed up!" said the deputy lieutenant.

"inappropriate!"

Suddenly Yang Yanzhang suddenly pulled the horse.

"Sir, what's wrong?" the lieutenant asked.

Yang Yanzhang took a deep breath and said, "There is something weird in this town."
