Sizhou's soldiers and horses east of Panlongling were all withdrawn into Jinhe County, and Gao Shao personally led a battalion of elite troops to settle in Hujian Pass, so that the matter of appeasement entered the substantive operational stage.

Hujian Pass Canyon is about a mile long, Guancheng is built at the mouth of the valley on the east side, and the north is the Caojing Ridge with steep peaks and cliffs.

As one of the most important remaining veins at the southern foot of Wuling Mountain, the mountain of Caojingling continues to extend to the south for five miles after passing the Hujian Pass, and the mountains are stacked and staggered, forming the mouth of Chenshui out of Sizhou, and then to the south it is intertwined with the peaks and ridges of the northwest foot of Longya Mountain.

In particular, this stone ridge between Hujian Mountain and Chenshui, although it is only more than 200 meters high, but the mountain is extremely dangerous, as if a long strip-shaped giant seal lies between heaven and earth, and the locals call it Tianyin Peak again.

From the inner side of Hujian Guancheng, there is a stone step road in the previous dynasty, pick up the steps to climb the mountain, and the Tianyin Temple built more than 300 years ago is located on the main peak.

At the end of the previous dynasty, the central royal court suppressed Buddhism, Sizhou was also affected, and the mottled monastery was abandoned for thirty or forty years, the monks were gone, and the monastery was overgrown with weeds and rubble.

Weeds are removed, but Teninji Temple is a great place to look out at the scenery left and right.

Han Qian "recovered", he rushed to Hujian Pass, and invited Xuanwei to make Huang Hua and An Jixiang and others climb the main peak to visit the Tianyin Remnant Temple.

Everyone looked left and right, and could see that eight or nine miles to the east, boats and boats were gathering, and tens of thousands of grains and other materials were being transported from Qianyang, Linjiang, Zhijiang and other places through Chenshui, docked at Qingniubei Wharf, and then transported by mule and horse-drawn carts to Hujian Pass.

These materials were purchased by the Xuzhou Official Money Bureau and lent to Xingshangshu Province, with an annual interest rate of two cents, and will be returned in the future from the salt profits and taxes that can be collected from the Wuchuan County Salt and Iron Institute - as collateral, after the establishment of Wuchuan County, the salt and iron courtyard that was originally under the direct jurisdiction of the provincial transfer envoy will be sent by Xuzhou to serve as the deadline for the complete return of principal and interest.

On the west side of Tianyin Peak, the rebel generals dragged their families and mouths, like swimming dragons, and were gathering towards Hujian Pass.

On the inner side of Hujian Pass, Huang Hua was sent by Xuanwei - mainly Fu Gengwen and Han Chengmeng led the order to assist the rebel army in establishing a temporary camp.

On the one hand, the rebel army will rest and undergo reorganization here, and on the other hand, before the rebel army captures the Wuchuan River Valley, its family of 14,500 people will be temporarily resettled here.

"Tan Yuliang, Dong Tai, Zhao Zhixian and others have arrived in front of the gate...... "The guard approached and said.

"Master Hou and I are going to meet these 'bandit leaders'?" Huang Hua narrowed his eyes, looked at Han Qian and asked.

"This Tan Yuliang has some skills, when my father was in charge of Xuzhou, he had a headache, and he was finally expelled, but I didn't expect to stir up the chickens and dogs in Sizhou again this time, and I happened to see him again - Inspector, Lord An, please first." Han Qian said lightly, please Huanghua and An Jixiang in front

The face went first, and the others walked down the treacherous stone path and walked down the Tianyin Peak......

…………

…………

The Guancheng of Hujian Pass is very narrow, between the peaks and cliffs of the valley mouth, the north and south are about 100 zhang long, the two city walls ram earth and cover bricks, quite solid, but there is only less than 30 zhang of depth in the Guancheng.

In addition to only three government offices the size of the courtyard, there are more than 100 garrison barracks in the city.

However, after the increase in business travel, there were many large families in Sizhou, and many houses were built along both sides of the main post road on the inner side of Hujian Pass.

There are shops, and there are also inns for business travelers.

The streets distributed along the post road, connected to the courtyard behind, there are more than 100 rooms built on the inner side of the castle.

At present, Gao Shao and Feng Yi are personally staring at this place to deal with matters related to recruitment, but Han Qian is considering setting up a township inspection department in Hujian Pass in the future, leaving more than 100 people here to be responsible for customs and defense affairs.

Huang Hua directly temporarily requisitioned an inn called Yuelai Inn outside Guancheng to accept the reference of the rebel generals.

The initial plan was that Tan Yuliang, Tan Xiuqun, Dong Tai and other rebel generals would gather 3,000 young and strong people, reorganize them into Tianping Capital, organize six battalions of regular soldiers, and use Tan Yuliang, Tan Xiuqun, Dong Tai, Dong Ping, Zhang Guangdeng and other rebel generals to serve as generals (Du Yuhou), deputy generals and battalion commanders.

After the balance of the balance rested at Hujian Pass, it was necessary to march westward along the Wuling Mountain Trail at the northern foot of Panlong Ridge to threaten the Shu army occupying the Wuchuan River Valley from the flank, and to curb the possibility of its lone army entering the south to attack Shiqian.

Yuelai Inn Linyi Road is a two-storey wooden building, and the ground floor is also quite spacious after the messy tables and stools are emptied.

After Huang incarnated as a consolation envoy to sit on the central governor's case, Han Qian and An Jixiang sat on the left and right, and then Tan Yuliang, Tan Xiuqun, Dong Tai, Zhao Zhixian, Gao Shao, Feng Yi, Fu Gengwen, Zhou Qinian, Han Chengmeng, and representatives of officials from Sichen and Sichen.

The guards inside and outside the inn were in charge of the Xuzhou cavalry camp and the guards brought by Huanghua.

Compared with the beginning of the year, Tan Yuliang at this time is darker and thinner, but his sturdy posture is more upright, with a calm bearing, and the temples are already frosty white, which shows that he has been trapped in Panlongling for the past few months, and his life is not easy.

Tan Yuliang first introduced some of the conditions of the rebel army.

Most of the generals and their families were moving to Hujian Pass, but there were also a small number of rebels, about less than 200 people, who could not let go of their hatred for the slaughter of their families, refused to accept the appeasement, and fled to the mountains in the south of Panlongling.

Sizhou and Yezhou in the south, whether they are appeased or suppressed by these people, have nothing to do with the rebel army, but Tan Yuliang wants to explain these situations at this time.

Prior to this, after Tan Yuliang obtained the permission of Fu Gengwen and Feng Yu, he had already sent his son Tan Lang and his nephew Tan Wenlin to lead two hundred elites to advance westward as the vanguard, reconnoiter the enemy's situation, and would also adapt measures to local conditions as much as possible to delay the pace of the Shu army's southward attack on Shiqian County.

"Tan Du thought about it so carefully, when he pacified Tanzhou, he did not requisition as a general

, it's really a big loss for Da Chu," Huang Hua said in a voice, "But it's not too late to make amends, Tan Du and you can rest assured that you will serve the imperial court, after I return to Tanzhou this time, I will immediately write to the Ming court, play Your Majesty, and conf......er the title of Tan Du and other righteous names."

"Comfort makes the house benevolent, and the sense of humility is remembered, and he will be loyal to his duties, and drive away the enemy for Dachu and His Majesty, even if he throws his head and spills blood, he will not hesitate." Tan Yuliang took a group of rebel generals and said with a sonorous and powerful statement.

"Okay, with Tan Du's words, and Marquis Han here urging him, Ben Shuai can also return to Tanzhou with confidence." Huang Hua said.

Huang Hua talked to Fu Gengwen for a while, and then asked An Jixiang: "What does Lord An have to show to the generals?" ”

Huang Hua personally rushed to Xuzhou to promote the pacification, not only to solve the civil unrest, to save the Sizhou Yang family, but also to incorporate the bandit army as Xingshangshu Province to attack the flank of the Shu army, and at the same time to organize Wuchuan into Zhili County, appoint Fu Gengwen to temporarily lead the county order, Xingshangshu Province directly controls border defense, border trade and other matters, how can you explain the past.

And even in this process, Xuzhou has taken a lot of advantage, and it cannot completely explain the involvement between Han Qian and the bandits, and there are still doubts about whether the balance can truly be loyal to the imperial court, but everything cannot be done overnight, and many problems still need to be resolved slowly.

Otherwise, if someone else is sitting in Huzhou, can they do better than yellowing under such conditions?

Of course, Huang Hua can explain it, and An Jixiang can also return to Beijing to make a difference.

He was still in a very happy mood at the moment, and he happily encouraged Tan Yuliang and the others, promising to return to His Majesty and help say some good things.

An Jixiang was happy, but Fu Gengwen was a little depressed.

He didn't want to get involved in the whirlpool of Guangde Mansion, so he finally pushed off the appointment of Langxi County and went to Hunan Xingshangshu Province to serve as the lieutenant official of the capital protector Lang.

It seems that the past is like a good journey, but he doesn't want to fall into Sizhou and it is difficult to get out, and now he has to temporarily receive the vacant Wuchuan County Order and the military captain.

In addition to being in this remote, plague-ridden place, and the people are extremely hard, there is no benefit to be said, if Wuchuan loses the battle, he will not only have to be responsible, maybe he will have to worry about his life.

It's really bad luck for eight lifetimes, and I don't know when I can get out of here and return to Tanzhou.

Huang incarnated as a consolation envoy, the head of the three envoys of Shangshu Province, he could not wait here for Tan Yuliang to lead the troops to recover Wuchuan, now that everything has a clue, leave some people to help Fu Gengwen supervise the follow-up matters, there is no new situation, he will leave tomorrow and return to Tanzhou on the official ship.

An Jixiang also didn't want to stay here for a moment longer, so he made up his mind to leave Xuzhou with Huang Hua and return to Jinling on a business trip.

Han Qian did not directly intervene in the matter of appeasement, and after the meeting, he lived in Hujian Pass with Huang Hua, An Jixiang, Zhou Qinian and others, leaving Feng Yi to cooperate with Fu Gengwen, Tan Yuliang and others to deal with the follow-up resettlement.
