As the date of the expedition approached, Guo Song was also extremely busy these days, Pan Liao was not in Zhangye, basically he came to act as the governor of the history, but seeing that the expedition was imminent, and Pan Liao could not come back until at least mid-February, Guo Song began to hand over the trivial matters of the long history to Zhang Qiu'an, who joined the army.

Zhang Qiu'an joined the army and was in charge of military affairs, after the separation of military and political affairs, he basically didn't ask about government affairs, but now that the three government officials have gone out, Guo Song can only use Zhang Qiu'an again, fortunately, Zhang Qiu'an has also done government affairs, a set of processes is more familiar, but it doesn't take much to talk, Zhang Qiu'an got started directly.

Guo Song also asked Du Siye to assist Zhang Qiu'an and become his deputy, and the two cooperated very tacitly.

On this morning, Guo Song walked into the official room and sat down, Du Siye hurriedly walked in and handed a copy of the eagle letter to Guo Song, "This is the daily newspaper sent by Pan Changshi yesterday, please take a look!" ”

Guo Song is not in the camp of exiles, it is not that he doesn't care about the affairs of the camp of exiles, Pan Liao has to write a daily newspaper every day, sent to Zhang Ye by three letter eagles, and then copy it out from the master book of the station and submit it to Guo Song, Guo Song reviewed the instructions and replied to the county camp, and at the same time distributed it to Zhang Qiu'an and eight ministries.

Guo Song took the copy and read it carefully, there is a mark in front of the important matter, an important event happened yesterday, 20,000 displaced people from Jincheng County were merged into the camp of displaced people in Hui County, and a conflict broke out between the displaced people and the army in Jincheng County, and dozens of people were injured.

The reason for the conflict, Pan Liao also noted, the reason is very simple, there are not many displaced people in Jincheng County, but the materials are relatively rich, they are twenty people in one account, and in Huixian County is thirty people in one account.

After the camp was merged, the displaced people in Jincheng County also became a tent of 30 people, and the extra camp tent was turned into a medical camp, as a result, the displaced people in Jincheng County were dissatisfied, made a riot, and were suppressed by the army.

Guo Song's brows furrowed, he decided to build a camp for displaced people in Huixian County, on the one hand, he was afraid of encountering a snowstorm halfway, and there was another reason that was not explicitly stated, that is, he did not want hundreds of thousands of displaced people to come to Zhangye.

If there are people sent by Zhu Jun to incite trouble in it, the riot of the displaced people is a very terrible thing, which will bring ruin to Zhangye.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, the Yellow Turban Army revolted, that is, millions of Hebei refugees were organized by Zhang Jiao's three brothers, and the 650,000 refugees were probably driven by Zhu Zhu to destroy Hexi, and Guo Song had to take precautions.

Guo Song was silent for a moment, then picked up the pen and annotated on the back of the pigeon letter: 'Grace and power are used together, and the contradictions are resolved in time, leaving no trouble!' ’

The homeless people must be hard with one hand and soft with the other, and they will be able to do it with grace and power, too soft they will get an inch, and if they are too hard, they will be provoked to resist.

This point should be that Cao Wannian did not handle it well, and did not unify with the camp of the displaced people in Hui County, Guo Song pondered for a moment, handed over the approval of the eagle letter to Du Siye, and said to him: "Go and find Wang Yue for me!" ”

Du Siye went out, and after a while, Wang Yue hurried over, knelt down on one knee and saluted: "See the envoy!" ”

Guo Song smiled: "Is there any abnormality in Zhangye these days? ”

Wang Yue shook his head, "Not for the time being!" ”

Guo Song got up and walked a few steps with his hands in his hands and said, "I want you to take a thousand brothers from the internal affairs camp to disguise themselves as homeless people and blend into the camp of homeless people, you can ride camels to Huixian, do you understand what I mean?" ”

Wang Yue reacted very quickly and immediately understood, "Is the envoy worried that there are spies in the camp of the homeless people?" ”

Guo Song nodded, "These hundreds of thousands of homeless people were driven to Hexi by Zhu Zhu, he is likely to have planted spies in them, instigating the homeless people to make trouble in Hexi, yesterday the homeless people in Jincheng County made trouble, I infer that someone is stirring up trouble in it, it is not as simple as Pan Changshi thinks, after you mix in the homeless people, the task is to pick out Zhu Jun's spies, as long as you find one of them, you can quickly find the people around him, find an opportunity, and get rid of them silently." ”

"Humble duty understands, prepare, and set off today!"

Guo Song handed him a letter, "Give this letter to Pan Changshi, he will arrange for you to blend into the camp of the exiles, and after the spies suppress it, you will continue to stay in the camp of the exiles, and slowly become the leader of the exiles, and control them, which is very important." ”

.........

Wang Yue led a thousand internal affairs soldiers to ride camels for five days and arrived at the camp of the displaced people in Huixian County.

Pan Liao has been dealing with the Jincheng homeless camp incident in the past few days, he always can't figure it out, obviously he has persuaded the troublemakers to make trouble, everyone said that they want to be safe and disciplined, but after a night, they start to make trouble again, refusing to accept 30 people in one account, demanding to restore the original state.

Of course, it is impossible for Pan Liao to accept their rude demands, if they are given special treatment, what if more than 600,000 people here make trouble?

The restlessness of the homeless people really made Pan Liao a little haggard.

At this moment, someone sent him a message, and Wang Yue, the commander of the internal affairs battalion, was looking for him outside the camp.

Pan Liao hurriedly rode to the outside of the camp and saw a thousand camel cavalry in the distance.

He greeted him, and the person at the head was none other than Wang Yue, the head of internal affairs.

"General Wang, what's the matter?"

Wang Yue easily jumped off the camel and stepped forward to hand him a letter, "This is a letter from the envoy to Changshi, please take a look at it!" ”

Pan Liao opened the letter and read it again, and then he realized that this is right, someone must be stirring up, otherwise how could he make trouble again and again?

After reading the letter, Guo Song asked him to insert the internal affairs soldiers into the letter, and the internal affairs soldiers were responsible for finding and eradicating the spies planted by Zhu Jun.

Guo Song also had a second suggestion in the letter, after all the spies were eliminated, the internal affairs battalion would continue to remain in the camp of the refugees, become the leader of the refugees, and cooperate with the Hexi army to stabilize the refugees from within.

Of course, this is also because the internal affairs battalion is Guo Song's direct descendant, and the trust is equivalent to that of the pro-military battalion, so Guo Song dared to arrange it like this, and no team could do this, and more than 600,000 displaced people were controlled by an army, which was simply too dangerous.

Pan Liao thought deeply that these two suggestions of the lord made him think so, he looked at the sky, and said to Wang Yue: "You go to the barracks with me to eat and rest first, and I will arrange for you to enter the camp at night." ”

Wang Yue shook his head, "The reason why I didn't go to the camp to find Changshi directly is that I want to act secretly, so that other armies can't know that we are coming, and we will leak the news, please send someone to bring the camel back, we will change our clothes, and go directly to the camp as a homeless person at night." ”

Pan Liao nodded, "That's fine, I'll wronged you first, I'll go back and arrange it now!" ”

.........

At night, Wang Yue and his men were led into the camp by the officials, each soldier carrying only a tattered old dagger for self-defense, like a broken knife picked up on the side of the road, so as not to arouse suspicion, they were placed in various camps, among which Wang Yue and fifty of his men were placed in the Jincheng County camp.

The camp of displaced people was divided into 30 sub-battalions, each with more than 20,000 people, divided by prefectures and counties, and each battalion elected 10 elders as temporary elders, responsible for calming disputes, resolving contradictions, and if it was really impossible to resolve contradictions, the army would intervene to deal with them.

Due to the large number of people, the camp tent is limited, of course, it can not meet the needs of each family with a big tent, can only live together, all are divided into the elderly camp, the women's and children's camp and the young camp, the average of each camp tent to live 30 people, boys over 10 years old must live with their father, each person is issued a sheepskin, this alone consumes half of the sheepskin stock in Hexi.

The camp for the elderly and women and children live in warm leather tents, which are more comfortable, while the camp for young and strong people live in ordinary cloth tents, which are a little colder, and everyone can huddle together to keep warm.

In addition, there are many special small tents in the camp, on which a green flag is inserted, and trenches are dug around it, and the camp fence is enclosed, and the inside is full of pungent quicklime, which is the thatched latrine.

The camp of more than 600,000 people, the area is larger than a county town, it will take more than an hour just to come out, so the weather is so cold and freezing, it is unrealistic to put the latrine outside, it can only be placed in the camp, as much as possible to use quicklime to disinfect, there is a lime mine in Liangzhou, and more than 1,000 carts are used to pull these quicklimes.

Everyone has experience, and the latrine is the key to preventing epidemics, and you can't be careless.

Every day at noon, young men can go to the women's and children's camp to visit their wives and children, and the whole family can be reunited for an hour.

Of course, Pan Liao tried his best to find something for everyone to do, so as not to get together and make trouble.

Men shovel snow, cut wood, make fences, or get together to practice martial arts.

The women organized to sew clothes and make shoes, and the children gathered together to read and write.

More than 100 officials are busy every day, mainly responsible for registering and classifying, classifying and compiling books of people with skills, how many scholars there are, how many craftsmen there are, which people want to join the army, which people want to go to mining, and which families want to settle in Beiting and Anxi.

A winter passed slowly.
