At the end of September and the beginning of October, there was already a chill in Shudi.

But Li Balang didn't dare to delay, because if he didn't hurry at this time, if it was a little later, it would have to wait until the beginning of spring next year.

If you can't catch up with Liangzhou, it's best if you can get to Hanzhong, but if you can't catch up, at least you have to go to Jincheng.

In the past, Li Balang would definitely not be able to go far.

Because the two sisters and brothers, although they are stained with the light surnamed Li, they can eat enough and can't freeze, but if they want to go further, it is impossible at all.

Shy, do you beg all the way to Liangzhou?

However, Li Liuniang said that everything in her family affairs was simple, so three days later, Li Balang had an extra brother-in-law.

Although this brother-in-law is a martial artist, he loves his sister very much.

And because he is the old man in Feng Ghost King's army, he has a lot of property.

From the tone he inadvertently revealed, Li Balang knew that in the early years, King Feng Ghost went from quelling the chaos in Yueshan to fighting in Longyou, and his brother-in-law had a lot of oil and water just in the labor trade.

Not to mention the reward of a few big wins.

The most important thing is to use the military merits accumulated over the years in exchange for the field, which will be handed over to the Xinghan Society to take care of.

The grain collected every year, excluding taxes and commissions for the Xinghan Society, will be converted into food stamps, money stamps, cloth stamps, etc., and delivered to the brother-in-law on time according to the brother-in-law's requirements.

In this way, the brother-in-law will not have any worries and can stay in the army with peace of mind.

However, these fields are void fields.

If the brother-in-law wants to replace these virtual fields with real fields and take care of them himself, it is not impossible.

But first, it is possible that Shitian may fall to Yueshan, or it may also fall to Longyou, or even Nanzhong.

If you really want to fall to Nanzhong, it's too late to cry.

Second, that is, the output of these virtual fields is converted, and Xinghan will have a part of the tax subsidy.

So if you really want to take care of it yourself, then you have to pay taxes normally, which is not cost-effective.

The reason why the Xinghan Society allowed such operations was inseparable from the Pioneer politics of the Three Kingdoms era.

The Three Kingdoms were established, and the politics of the First Army was a must, and the Han, Wei, and Wu were no exceptions.

But because the economic base is different, the military system is also different.

In the Wei State, the scholar family system was established, and the soldiers and their families had separate household registrations, which were called "scholar families".

Men serve as soldiers for life, their fathers die and their sons succeed, brothers die and brothers die, and they become soldiers for generations, and the scholar family can only intermarry with the scholar family.

After the soldier's death, his wife was transferred from the government to the scholar's family. If a soldier fled, his family was severely punished, with the result of death, or failure to serve as an official or slave.

In addition to the scholar system, Wu also had a hereditary military leadership system.

The so-called hereditary military leadership system belongs to the private property of Sun and Wu's generals, and the army led by each general is regarded as its subordinate.

Under the leadership of the generals, the troops not only participated in the battles under the central command, but also provided the generals with other farming chores.

Even after the death of a general, the tribal had to continue to obey the general's son or his blood heir.

As for Ji Han's military system, it is different.

The first is that Hu Yi accounts for a considerable part.

In order to reduce the ability of the Yi people to rebel in Nanzhong, he not only selected a large number of Yi people as soldiers, but even migrated a large number of Yi people to Shu.

Needless to say, Ghost King Feng has repeatedly formed a righteous congregation of Hu Qi.

This practice is regarded as a half-scholar system, and it is aimed at Hu Yi.

In addition, the Han Dynasty was mainly a system that combined conscription and conscription.

The purpose of military recruitment is to train professional soldiers and strengthen their combat effectiveness.

Conscription is to develop a reserve so that it can be ready for a big war.

After the Battle of Longyou, the prime minister of the Han Dynasty returned to Hanzhong, learned the lessons of the Battle of Longyou, reduced the old and weak in the army, and trained the troops to emphasize martial arts, representing the formal establishment of the Han military system.

Everyone knows that training professional elite soldiers is the best choice, but this requires good financial support.

Among the Three Kingdoms, only the Great Han has such capital.

The Xinghan Society has been inextricably linked with the royal family from the very beginning, so it can be regarded as half official.

Its subsidy to Feng Yongjun's lieutenant generals can be regarded as a supplement to the Han Dynasty's finances.

It is somewhat similar to the political donations made by the arms dealers and chaebols of later generations to the government.

Under Songun politics, the more such political donations the better.

And Feng Junhou is the chief representative of the Xinghan Society, the chaebol.

Now this chaebol representative is riding a high-headed horse and walking on the streets of Dunhuang City.

Because of the arrival of the Liangzhou Thorn History, this street was cleared ahead of schedule.

"Click......

The crisp sound of horses' hooves echoes through the streets, making it even quieter.

The horse is a horse from the Western Regions, extremely handsome, the only regret is that this is a castrated horse.

The handsome gelding of the Western Regions.

General Guan personally served as the guard, only half a horse behind Feng Junhou.

Guards in iron armor surrounded him.

The door of Zhang's mansion was wide open, and Zhang stood at the door, greeting the arrival of Feng Junhou.

In Liangzhou in October, the sky is full of snow the size of a grain of rice.

Feng Yong turned over and dismounted, climbed the stairs, and Zhang hurriedly saluted:

"I've seen the prince."

"No need to be polite, Zhang Gongzi has been waiting for a long time."

Feng Yong stopped and stood at the gate of Zhang's Mansion and looked at Zhang Zuo.

I saw Zhang wrapped in a thick and long down jacket, and his nose was red from the cold, but he was trying to maintain his calm demeanor.

Zhang was also looking at Feng Yong.

There was a look of surprise in his eyes.

The last time he went back to Longyou, he didn't see Feng Yong.

Although he had known that Feng Yong was not very old, when the real person stood in front of him, Zhang couldn't help but have a look of surprise in his eyes.

He fought against Feng Yong, was cheated by Feng Yong, and even when he went to Longyou, he still wanted to meet Feng Yong, but he failed to do so.

Today was the first time I had come face to face with Feng Yong up close.

Although he had known that Feng Yong was not very old, when he saw the real person, he still couldn't stop muttering in his heart:

How did this person, at such an age, manage to be ruthless and known to the world?

With such a slander, Zhang stretched out his hand and saluted, "The prince please, my lord has been waiting in the mansion for a long time." ”

Feng Yong nodded: "Zhang Gongzi, please." ”

Zhang turned around and led the way.

In Zhang Gong's room where he was recuperating, a coal stove had already been burned, and there was a flue between the coal stove and the ondol.

In Liangzhou, this kind of room configuration can only be owned by wealthy families.

It's not that there is much technical content in making a coal stove and a kang stove, but the briquettes can only be transported from Longyou.

Of course, you can also burn charcoal.

But whether it is coal or charcoal, it is not something that ordinary people can afford.

Zhang Gong was wrapped in a thick fluffy blanket, sat on the couch, and said to Feng Yong, who walked in:

"The old man is seriously ill and can't stay to greet the prince, I hope the prince will forgive me."

"Zhang Gong really wants to stay and take Yong, that is the torture of Yongye."

Feng Yong took off his robe, shook it, handed it to Guan Ji behind him, and then roasted it on the stove again.

It wasn't until his hands became warm and the cold on his body was gone, that he pulled a chair, sat down in front of the couch, and held Zhang Gong's dry hand:

"Hearing the name of Zhang Gong forever, I have long been eager to see it, and today I can visit Zhang Gong in the house, which is enough to comfort my life."

There isn't much etiquette, and it's even a little self-cooked.

I paid attention to the details very much, knowing that Zhang Gong was afraid of the cold, for fear that the cold on his body would be transmitted to Zhang Gong, so he went to the fire first, and then sat down in front of the couch.

Feeling the warmth in his hands, Zhang Gong looked at Feng Yong, with a look of appreciation on his face, and smiled:

"The old man has also heard the name of the prince for a long time, although he has not seen it, he has a real friendship, today he can see the prince, and the old man is also full of comfort!"

Whether the clever Feng Ghost King is really comforting his life, others don't know.

But Zhang Gong has really been friends with Feng Ghost King for a long time.

A few months ago, Liu Liang came to visit Zhang's mansion and conveyed Feng Junhou's evaluation of Zhang Gong.

Feng Junhou highly praised Zhang Gong's actions of quelling the rebellion, pacifying Huyi, fixing the Western Regions, and resolutely safeguarding the unification of China.

and determined that he was very different from some wealthy families in Liangzhou.

It was this evaluation that made Zhang Gong a confidant.

Perhaps a little excited, Zhang Gong pulled out his hand, covered his mouth and coughed.

As soon as Zhang saw it, he hurriedly stepped forward.

Unexpectedly, Feng Yong, who was sitting in front of the couch, had already stood up and helped stroke Zhang Gong's back:

"Yong came this time, specially brought a good doctor, and asked him to help take a look at Zhang Gong's body when the time came."

Zhang Gong coughed for a while, then calmed down and shook his head:

"The prince has a heart, but the old man's body is not aware of the old man's body? This is a heavenly year, and no human can save it. ”

Feng Yongwen said: "It's all here, you always have to take a look." I just took over as the assassin of Liangzhou, and I still have to rely on Zhang Gong for many things. ”

"Duke Zhang's name is in Xizhou, as long as Duke Zhang is in one day, Liangzhou and the Western Regions will be able to settle down a little more."

Zhang Gong waved his hand:

"The prince is overrated!"

Feng Yong sat back in his position and suddenly smiled:

"It's a pity that there are no mosquitoes now."

Don't say it's Zhang Yi, even Zhang Gong is stunned, and he doesn't understand why Feng Yong said this:

"What do you mean?"

"The wrinkles on Zhang Gong's face can trap mosquitoes." Feng Yong said with a smile, "If you weren't happy in your heart, you wouldn't be like this." ”

Zhang Gong laughed again.

He laughed while pointing at Feng Yong and said, "Clever words, sure enough, clever words!" ”

Zhang next to him heard Zhang Gong's words, and his face suddenly changed.

Feng Yong himself didn't care.

Zhang Gong glanced at Zhang Zuo and sighed in his heart, his own child is really not calm enough!

He thought as he continued:

"To be honest, if you talk about the land of the Western Regions, the old man thinks that he still has a bit of face. But if you talk about Liangzhou, I'm afraid the old man is not as good as the prince! ”

Feng Yong shook his head: "I can't let the Han Dynasty recover the two counties of Dunhuang Ganquan without blood." ”

"As for the Western Regions, that's not to mention. Over the years, if it weren't for Zhang Gong, the countries of the Western Regions would have known Hanwei for a long time. ”

Although the Han Dynasty has suppressed the Western Regions for more than 300 years, the identity of the suzerainty has long been engraved into the bones of the countries of the Western Regions.

However, the Central Plains has been in turmoil for decades, and the Han envoys have not been to the Western Regions for a long time.

Therefore, Feng Yong respected Zhang Gong so much, not just because of his prestige in Liangzhou.

"Over the years, the news of the turmoil in the Central Plains has already spread throughout the Western Regions, and the old man is just doing his best."

Zhang Gong knew what Feng Yong wanted to say, but he didn't look a little proud, but held Feng Yong's hand tightly, and said earnestly:

"What's more, the old man is only afraid that he will die soon! The prince knows me, and I also know the prince. If the prince wants to revive Hanwei in the Western Regions, it is best to prepare as early as possible while the old man still has a few breaths. ”

Feng Yong nodded, then shook his head again:

"The Western Regions are important, but if the Han family is not prosperous, how can the Han Dynasty have the strength to run the Western Regions?"

"And today's Western Regions Changshi Mansion was established by Wei thieves." Speaking of this, Feng Yong let out a long sigh, "With the current situation of the Great Han, how can it be possible to go on an expedition to the Western Regions?" ”

When Zhang Gong heard this, there was eagerness in his eyes:

"Prince, although the Wei State has a Changshi Mansion in the Western Regions, it has long since lost the prestige of the Han Dynasty, so the Changshi Mansion is just a name."

"If the Great Han doesn't care about the Western Regions at this time, I'm afraid that after ten years, the countries of the Western Regions will no longer know about Han Wei!"

"And the Western Regions are prolific and good-looking, and the Central Plains caravans go to other places and get rich, which can be said to be full of treasury."

"Not to mention that the soldiers of the former Han Dynasty fought hard, and the Later Han Dynasty operated with all their hearts, after hundreds of years, how could they easily give up?"

Feng Yong had guessed before that Zhang Gong was a Hanist.

Now hearing his words, he confirmed his conjecture.

He pondered for a moment, and then asked, "In that case, I don't know why Zhang Gong taught me?" ”

When Zhang Gong heard this, his spirits perked up, and he hurriedly said:

"If the Han Dynasty does not send soldiers to the Western Regions for the time being, the old man will have an idea, that is, there is some arrogance."

Feng Yong nodded: "Gong Zhang, come first." ”

Zhang Gong glanced at Guan Ji who was guarding the door.

"Zhang Gong, don't worry, General Guan and I, no matter what we do, please come."

Zhang Gong listened, and then said:

"My Zhang family still has a thin name in the Western Regions, if the court can trust the old man, the old man dares to ask Wu'er to be the captain of Wuji in the Western Regions, and go to the Western Regions with the Han Festival."

Zhang?

Feng Yong subconsciously looked at Zhang Zuo, who had been standing in the room and had not said anything.

Just in time to meet Zhang Jie's stunned gaze, he didn't seem to expect his own adults to say such things.

Feng Yong turned his head again and said with some embarrassment:

"Gong Zhang, the Western Regions are far away, and the governor of Liangzhou is out of reach, if you let Ling Lang go to the festival, I am afraid that the evil luck is unknown!"

Zhang Gong didn't look at his son, and only persuaded Feng Yong: "Although my son is stupid, he is still courageous, so why be afraid?" ”

"This ......"

Feng Yong glanced at Zhang Yu hesitantly again.

Seeing Zhang Yu's expression extremely complicated, Feng Ghost King couldn't help muttering in his heart:

"This one, could it be that Zhang Gong picked it up?"

Thinking so in his heart, he asked in his mouth: "I don't know what Zhang Gongzi thinks?" ”

Zhang was startled and hurriedly replied:

"What you mean is what you mean."

Feng Yong still asked with some unease:

"If Zhang Gongzi really wants to go to the Western Regions, can he be sure?"

Zhang thought for a moment, then glanced at his own adult, and then resolutely said:

"Back to the prince, if you say that you are sure, there are three or four points. After all, our Zhang family also has a thin foundation in the Western Regions, and I still have some friendship with the long history of the Western Regions. ”

"In the past, the thirty-six people of Ban Dingyuan could still determine the Western Regions, not to mention that now the countries of the Western Regions have been subjugating the Central Plains for a long time? If you don't have it, you will also go with a festival. ”

Feng Yongyi slapped his thigh and cheered:

"Good! It's really a tiger father without a dog! After I look at Zhang Gong, the one who can determine the Western Regions is none other than Zhang Gongzi. ”

He turned to Zhang Gong again:

"The father and son of the Zhang family are really loyal martyrs! After I went back, I immediately reported to the imperial court and recommended Zhang Gongzi as the captain of Wuji in the Western Regions, and went to the Western Regions with a festival. ”

After the discussion, Feng Yong asked Fan Qi to come in to see Zhang Gong.

At the same time, Zhang set up a banquet in the mansion to entertain the history of Liangzhou Thorn.

Feng Yong stayed in Dunhuang County for ten days, met with the scholars, and appeased Hu Yiduo.

Before leaving, he had a conversation with Chen Shi, the new Taishou of Dunhuang County, and explained:

If Dunhuang is stable, the trade routes of the Western Regions will be smooth, and the trade routes of the Western Regions will be smooth, and the treasury of the Han Dynasty will be replenished.

The recovery of Liangzhou shows that the Han Dynasty has finally reopened its own Silk Road, how can Chen Shi not understand the importance of this?

He hurriedly responded.

Seeing this, Feng Yong led the army back to Wuwei to the east.

At the same time, Jiang Wei was officially appointed as the captain of Huqiang, ruled in Jincheng, and concurrently served as the Taishou of Jincheng County.

The former Hanyang County was too guarded, and the willow was relocated and stabilized.

Feng Yongyuan's general Jufu was transferred to Hanyang County.

There is also Zhang Wei, who was transferred to Tianshui County Taishou.

Yang Ju, the former Yinping Taishou, died of serious illness, and his Taishou was succeeded by his son Yang Wan.

Under Feng Tingshi's command, there were three generals missing at once.

So Feng Tingshi had to quietly discuss with General Guan:

"Xijun, I think Huo Yi is good, you can let him lead the army to try, what do you think?"
