Luo Zhaoyun sits in Huangshui City, eyeing Wuwei County, Jincheng County, and Caohan County, and may move eastward at any time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

However, he temporarily stopped the pace of attacking, in order to stabilize his footsteps, continued to expand his troops, absorbed the people of Xiping County, tamed the surrendered troops, and integrated them together, the number increased by twenty or thirty thousand, but the training was not enough, it was more chaotic, and it was not comparable to the twenty or thirty thousand elites he brought.

We can only speed up training temporarily, and in a quick way, first master the military regulations and military discipline, as well as the basic position-occupancy, running, flags, drums, and trumpets, and then through actual combat tempering, after a few tough battles, you will be able to be brave.

At the same time, Guo Xiaoke was sent to lead troops to attack Dahua City and Hejin City in Douhe County, which was easily occupied, because there were generals of the Sui Dynasty stationed here.

In this way, the four counties of Xihai County, Heyuan County, Xiping County, and Douhe County are connected together and paved together, with a cumulative population of four or five hundred thousand, and the territory of the four counties is equivalent to the size of eight counties in the Central Plains, but the population is only half of the four counties.

After all, it is a frontier land, high mountains, desert mountains, vast and sparsely populated, backward education, many bad habits, it is necessary to carry out culture, education and commerce, improve the knowledge level of the local people, as well as living conditions, and if there is a change, they will support and be grateful.

On the map, he drew the Silk Road in the Hexi Corridor, and many post stations were about to be established to connect a line to strengthen communication between each other's four counties and the Western Regions.

The post station was born from the ancient beacon communication, since the Warring States period has a prototype, Qin Shi Huang set up "ten miles and a pavilion", called the post pavilion, the scale is not large, the function is limited; At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the post booth was changed to a post, also called a post office, and the speed was improved. The Sui Dynasty set up pavilions and posts to provide accommodation for envoys, but the military effect was not high.

During the Song Dynasty, the post station began to transmit military information, divided into official and military two, the Yuan Dynasty, is the peak of the vigorous development of the post station, because of the horseback nation, the speed of maneuver is faster, and the post station transmits intelligence is greatly improved.

Luo Zhaoyun referred to the post station management method of the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, established a systematic and strict post transmission system, and added many contents and regulations.

For example: post station organization, intelligence encryption and transmission, management of nearby pastureland, supervision of envoys, post station food supply, exchange of temporary supplies, etc.

Each post station has post officers, post envoys and errand servants, and there are two teams of soldiers with about 100 people for defense, but most of them are old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers, relieving the pressure of army dispatch.

"It won't be long before these four counties can be connected in series, and the intelligence and supervisors will be transmitted to various places in a timely manner, and the local government will strengthen the connection between the local government and the governor's office and the commander's account." Luo Zhaoyun has some expectations, these settings, which seem inconspicuous, will play a huge role once they are operational.

Li Yuan convened the military generals to discuss the march and retreat, and in the end, seventy percent of those who agreed with the withdrawal of the army still did not change Li Yuan's mind even if Li Shimin, Liu Hongji and others persuaded him.

This time, Li Jiancheng did not stand on the same front with his second brother, but supported his father Tang Gong's decision, temporarily returned to Jinyang, and tried his best to ensure that the base camp was not lost, and resisted the attack of Liu Wuzhou and the Turks. Second, it was also because the route of the march was blocked, and it rained heavily for more than half a month, and the grain and grass were in short supply, and it was too late if we didn't leave.

Li Shimin was unwilling, he was bent on doing big things, the opportunity had come, he knew very well the benefits of occupying Daxing City to the Li family, but at this juncture, few people agreed with his rashness, on the contrary, seventy percent of the people stood on the opinions of Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng, thinking that the second son was still young and not enough to be believed.

After the meeting, Li Shimin was depressed, but he was not yet weak, he had too little experience in leading the army to fight, and he usually didn't like to read, read classics, etc., and some ministers and sages felt that Li Er was smart, but he was not solid, easy to change, and too aggressive.

"These people are really short-sighted, why can't they see the benefits of rushing into Daxing City in one go? Late will change! ”

Li Shimin returned to his tent and complained, and Liu Hongji, Tang Jian, Duan Zhixuan and others comforted the second son of the Li family.

"The sudden withdrawal of the army and the return to the north has too much impact on morale, so how do the Guanlong nobles and the heroes of the Central Plains view us.

"Your Highness is cautious, beware of the ears on the wall." There is a strategist to remind.

"At present, Tang Gong's opinion has been decided, and no one can persuade him to enter."

Li Shimin looked anxious and sighed lightly: "Is it true that I, Li Valve, don't have this luck?" ”

At this moment, a guard came in to tell that a woman in white came to the promised outside to see Li Shimin's second son.

"Woman in white, who is this? Could it be the heir of the Heavenly Pavilion? Li Er was a little uncertain in his heart.

"Hurry up, please!" Li Shimin explained and sent someone to greet him,

Soon, Ye Junyao wore a hat on her head, hung a thin veil, and was dressed in white, as outstanding as a fairy in the dust.

Li Shimin stood and paced in the room, waiting for the door curtain to be opened and the heir of the Mending Heaven Pavilion to appear, before he relieved himself and greeted him warmly.

"Miss Ye, we meet again." Li Er couldn't help but want to close the distance between them.

Ye Junyao said: "I appeared this time to solve the problem for the Tang army, I already know the controversy at your meeting today, I plan to go to Tang Gong, explain the stakes, we must take Xijing as soon as possible, so that Li Valve has the opportunity to unify the world and rebuild a new dynasty." ”
