But without waiting for Gao Yue to put it into practice, the Shanshui Village of Yanzhi Mountain took the initiative to go to the Dadou Valley and served the Tang Army.
You must know that in Yanzhi Mountain, it is Duan Zuo who is the owner of the village, and after he heard that the Tang army had restored Hehuang, he couldn't wait to light fireworks on the peaks of various mountains, and summoned the leaders of all the mountains and rivers on all sides, saying that the heavenly soldiers are finally here, and we have to do our best to help them recover this Ganzhou.
Wei Wei's river valley, Hao Wei led 3,000 Xiongqi soldiers, pouring in from the south of the valley, while Duan Zuo led more than 1,000 Yanzhishan volunteers, coming from the north of the valley, the two armies were facing each other, running enthusiastically and vigorously, throwing down their respective weapons, stepping on the streams and the earth in the valley, and then hugging each other in the cheers of the earth, for the regular Tang soldiers, the recovery of Helong is still at the level of implementing national orders, and for these volunteers, it is to save the countryside from the iron hooves of foreign races.
"Brother!" Hao Yu cried loudly, and when he saw Duan Zuo, it was like a dream.
The two men then hugged each other tightly.
"Your wife and children are not dead, your wife and children are not dead, they are all in Shanshui Village." Duan Zuo shook Hao Xuan's shoulder amid deafening cheers and cries.
"I'm not dead either," Hao Jue gritted his teeth.
Another day passed, when the Xiongqi army arrived at the foot of Yanzhi Mountain, Hao Jue laughed loudly, caught his two sons who were able to run, and circled around the grass, his son was also laughing, but Hao Jue's wife kept wiping tears on one side.
"What are you crying about, I heard that our Tang family's Gao and Wei are two big marshals, and they have won a few big battles, and the whole Helong will be recovered soon." Several old people next to them comforted the lady of Hao Jue's family, but they couldn't stop crying.
In Shancheng, Liu Demuro closely calculated with Cui Shu and Cui Yao in Sanyali that there were more than 200,000 stones in Shancheng and Tulou Mountain, as well as the grain and straw that had just been transported from Lanzhou and Wuzhou.
At this moment, the emperor and the imperial court also took all the pants as a pawn, and gathered more than one million yuan, bought grain and rice from all over the country, and hired foot force, and transported them along the Longyou Road in an endless stream in the Wanghehuang area, so that the price of grain in Gyeonggi was only about 300 yuan per stone, and now it has risen to 700 yuan.
In addition, the emperor also urgently transferred the silk cloth for the royal use from the palace, "exchanging silk for grain", and purchased food in various mountains and rivers in Helong.
Among them, there is also 300,000 yuan of reward money, which is also in place.
"Shang Qixin'er is simply my lucky star." Gao Yue, who was beside him, laughed.
If it weren't for the fact that he was afraid of escaping and letting the 150,000 stone army rations hoarded by Hehuang fall into the hands of the Tang army, then Gao Yue really didn't have the strength to launch an army against Hexi now.
Then Gao Yue ordered that more than 100,000 stones be distributed to the people of the Fan and Han dynasties in the entire Hehuang area, many of whom turned over at the end of Wen), to help them get through the time when they were not in the middle of the year, and then operated by Liu De's room, and seized the time to divide the fields, occupy the fields, and rush to plant the grain for famine relief.
The rest were all given to the cavalry, and then they continued to set off, not only to collect the Gan, Su, and Gua along the road, but also to finally arrive at Dunhuang, Shazhou, the end point of Hexi, and then to join the remaining soldiers and horses in Dunhuang and the four towns of Anxi.
"In this way, Anxi, Hexi, Longyou, until the original meeting, a total of six towns, fifteen armies, and 13,000 miles of territory were finally recovered and preserved from the hands of Fan Rong" Gao Yue thought of this, listening to the rhythmic abacus sound of Liu Deshu and the military officials, he couldn't help but close his eyes, and tears oozed from his heart.
At this time, he suddenly remembered Emperor Daizong.
Daizong has done a lot of foolish things in his life, the other party connived, connived at the Hui, killed Zhongliang in order to seize power, mismanaged the capital Chang'an, and the Buddha, etc., but Emperor Daizong always adhered to one principle
In the Anbei court and Helong, he fought or made peace with Xifan, but he never nodded and abandoned the soil, nor did he nod his head to abandon the people, and never recognized the legitimate occupation of the lost land by Xifan, and when the country was at its most critical, he would rather compromise with the rebel towns, and would rather bear all kinds of infamy, and he was also making every effort to reorganize the defense line of the northwest of Beijing against Xifan, and waited for an opportunity to launch a counteroffensive at any time to recover the lost territory.
This may also be the reason why he saw Gao Yue, and his eyes lit up.
"In the future, maybe this interesting young man will save this lost country."
When Gao Yue refused to marry his granddaughter and killed the drunkard in Dongshi, Daizong was also angry, but then he knew that what Gao Yue accepted was the expedition of Duan Xiushi, the envoy of Jingyuan Jiedu, and left Jingshi to go to the harsh western camp, he couldn't help but have the above thoughts.
A little delighted, a little anticipated.
But he didn't see the moment Gao Yue really shined, and he died.
"When I triumph and go to the Huizhong Palace in Longshan, I will pay homage to the portrait of your true face where you are."
Soon, on the outskirts of Shancheng, Gao Yue lived in the enemy platform of the city wall, and read the five thousand cavalry of the army that set off to the west of the river, under which the horses were of various colors, and the soldiers also held flags from all walks of life.
At the same time, because the food was not abundant enough to support thousands of troops and horses to go to Anxi, only 5,000 cavalry were selected, and under the strategy of the mountains and villages along the road, this operation was carried out, and all the way down to the important military towns, Gao Yue also stipulated that 300 or 500 should be left to garrison, attract the people, and let them settle down as soon as possible.
In this march, Cai Fengyuan, the orphan of Anxi, took the initiative to ask to participate.
Gao Yue also approved.
Previously, Gao Yue personally tied a scarf around Cai Fengyuan and wrapped it in a head, "Buddha slave, Hexi to Moxi, thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, I regret that I can't go because I want to sit in Shancheng, you can take a look for me, take a look for me."
"Well, I'll go and see it for Ji Gong." Cai Fengyuan's eyes were also red at this time.
Gao Yue patted him on the shoulder, "When you arrive in Anxi, ask your father what his whereabouts are, and then go back to Xingyuan Mansion and tell your mother." ”
At this time, the drums at the head of Shancheng City were loud, and Cai Fengyuan, who shouldered the double wishes of Ji Gong and his mother, looked back at Gao Yue who was still standing on the high platform in the column of the cavalry, and then walked forward.
In the melodious singing, the cavalry of the Tang Army, either carrying horse forks on their backs, or hanging long lances at the victory hook, and some hanging iron shovels and flails, went to Changning Valley in a mighty way.
Along the boundary of the river, the people of the Han Dynasty who had just been allocated to the fields were very excited, smashed and pulled down the field boundary signs of the "Bu Shi" Xifan that were originally buried in the soil, and the witch wishes for a good harvest, erected new stone boundaries, and took out livestock from the courtyards of Wang Tian, the nobles' houses, and the military fields, took farm tools, opened the floodgates of the ditches, and began to plough and irrigate, and plant grain, and this new land gave them infinite hope!
And Mu Di Zampu, who was stranded in Shancheng, wore ochre-red monk's robes, stood in the field and watched all this, silent.
