Du You's army surrounded Tusi's Tutuan soldiers, and Huang Shaodu returned to fight to the death, and all of his 4,000 subordinates were killed in battle, or they were corrected on the spot.

The left and right streams of the West Plains were also swept away by the Tutuan soldiers who took refuge in the Tang Dynasty, and even the Huangcheng Cave of the Huang family, the women, children, the old and the weak who stayed behind were slaughtered, and then looted and set on fire, and there were no tiles.

Thirty or forty thousand people were arrested in the other caves, most of them women and children, and they were escorted to Yongguan City.

Du You stood on the hall of Jingluo Mansion and scolded them, saying, you and other men in the family, do not think about good deeds, raise troops against the Tang Dynasty, kill and plunder the state capital along the road, the crime is unforgivable, and it has all been swept away in the pond. You and the others are all ashes and ashes, and they should all be executed, but as a shepherd, I have the responsibility of benevolence and education, so I will take the policy of "changing land and people":

The people of the states of the Western Plains have since moved to Dongguan, east of the Guangguan, and the land of Qin and Lian, and are the "cutaway households" of our Guangguan, and they will never return to the Xiyuan;

The fields of the states of the Western Plains were handed over to the united children of the Tusi of the various armies, and they were divided and occupied according to the cheapness, so that they needed to camp and garrison.

When they arrived in this group of captives and were selected to go east of Guangguan, they saw Jingguan at the pond.

The sight was so terrifying that more than 10,000 severed heads, all of them were men in their respective caves, stacked on top of each other, like a giant tower, standing on the side of the avenue, and black magpies flying all over the sky, coming to peck at them...... So that immediately hundreds of people died of wailing and fear......

Binzhou, Annan and Liubei each erected a tall Pingban monument to praise Gao Yue and Du You's great martial arts.

Lingnan and Annam have been flattened.

After that, Du You was busy in Guangguan, and he also began to prepare for the construction of a warehouse for the exchange of goods, relying on merchants to build and issue coins to expand maritime trade: this was not difficult for Du You, a seasoned official and cultural person.

In addition, Du You's vision began to fall on the Nanyang farther away, and he wanted to draw nautical charts and firmly grasp the greater interests.

After all, salt, gold and silver, maritime merchants, and cane sugar are his four pillars.

Of course, before leaving, Gao Yue also reminded him that there is a kind of rice in the ring kingdom, which was dedicated to Emperor Taizong, but then it disappeared into oblivion, it is a pity, this rice is resistant to water and drought, and can also ripen quickly, it can be planted in the east and west of Zhejiang, Jianghuai, Lingnan, Hunan, and Eyue places, and even in the saline-alkali land by the sea, it can also grow strongly, with the promotion of this rice, it can be harvested twice a year, plus the mixed planting of rice and wheat, the yield is enough to innovate the previous generation.

Therefore, get this batch of rice seeds from King Huai's envoy or caravan as soon as possible.

In addition, Gao Yue strongly persuaded Du You that the climate of Lingnan is most consistent with Annan and Huanwang, so in addition to cutting, Lingnan can also vigorously cultivate Huanwang rice.

There will be a large surplus of the rice obtained, some of which can be used to make wine, and some of which can be loaded into Huaiyang by ship for re-export trade.

In fact, Gao Yue is in the "half-pit" Du You: after that, if Lingnan sends rice to Huaiyang, Gao Yue will be able to plant a large number of cotton and mulberry trees in the tube, and weave cotton cloth and silk with higher added value, and sell them overseas to make amazing profits.

But Du You is not stupid, he said to Gao Yue on the surface that he was good, but secretly sent a scribe to contact Jiannan Wei Gao, saying that he was willing to pass on the cutting technique to Xichuan, and that he could import a large amount of rice in the future, and the corresponding Xichuan would give me a large amount of tea and silk for my Guangguan to meet the needs of Nanyang trade - in short, Du You wants to monopolize the sea trade in Nanyang, and you Gaoyue's Yangzhou sea trade, and go to Silla and Fusang in the future, and our well water will not violate the river water.

However, from Lingnan to Xichuan, the only route is to cross the Lingqu of Guiguan, then cross Xiangshui and Dongting Lake, and then enter the Yangtze River all the way to Shudu.

Du You has to dredge the spiritual canal!

Du You went to Hunan to observe Li Xun.

Li Xun did not have the financial and manpower to do this.

Du You couldn't draw so much strength.

Gao Yue, who finally returned to Yangzhou, learned of this incident and said, this road has just successfully dug through the Jiming Gang of the "digging army", at that time recruited 30,000 rights and interests soldiers, now after the retreat, there are 5,000 people, proficient in civil engineering, incorporated into the town of the army soldiers, you want to dredge the spiritual canal, don't look for others, this road is willing to undertake.

The last group of feudal Dao Fang towns went around and around, and they still had to find Gao Yue to do this.

But Gao Yue opened his mouth, and said that dredging the Ling Canal could be, but there was a price, and the price was too high for Du You to bear, and Du You, who was a little angry, went to Hunan to observe Li Xun, and Yan Zhen, the envoy of Eyue Jiedu, to see if they could bear the Fang Zhen along the road, but Li Xun and Yan Zhen did not let go, anyway, they relied on the trade with Huainan, Liangzhejiang, and Xuanhui to draw money was already full of money, and the power to open up an additional trade route to Lingnan was insufficient, so Du You was helpless, so he shifted his attention to the sea route again.

In this collision of you coming and going, the direction of the whole world is quietly changing.

In fact, not only the political situation, but also the physical geography is also changing.

On the fifth day of the fifth day of the first month of May, the love of Yangzhou Zicheng until the firewood and water place, held a grand dragon boat competition, Gao Yue, who returned triumphantly from Lingnan, let the military government set up a three-mile-long color shed along the water, and invited officials, generals and their families to come together to see, not only 100,000 families in Yangzhou City came to join in the fun, do business, and even the people of the surrounding seven counties also rowed boats along the water and land, set up countless sheds, all want to see if the dragon boat team can take the lead this year.

The monks of the Lianshui Temple also came in fear, claiming that when the Wei Guo Gong conquered the south, they prayed day and night to bless the Wei Guo Gong with divine power.

Gao Yue was in a good mood, so he listened to the words of his wife beside him, saying that the monks should get up, and don't forget to pray for the people and soldiers of Huaiyang in the future.

This group of monks breathed a sigh of relief and knew that they had passed the test.

After a while, the drums beat loudly, and in the thunderous cheers of the people, the dragon boats raced, you chased me, without relaxation, and it was wonderful.

"Qingqing, I think it's the apprentices of the Martial Arts Academy who are good at it." Yun Shao on the seat was very excited, her little hand touched the gurgling frosting Biluo, and she was very confident - she had already taken a fancy to several young and handsome men to be matchmakers for the military generals in the house, such as Cai Fengyuan, Guo Zaizhen and other daughters.

Gao Yue disagreed, and said with a smile, in my opinion, it is naturally the dragon boat of Xinluo Lang Zhang Baogao.

"I'm attached to my brother-in-law." Later, Yunhe also came to join the warband.

Zhi Hui, who sat back, said that it was better to take the victory and defeat as the first prize.

In the end, it was Yun Shao who lost.

Because the apprentice's dragon boat did not pay attention to the hydrology, it was glued by the silt and sand accumulated on the riverside, which delayed time.

The onlookers all let out a cry of pity.

Gao Yue, who witnessed all this, was not happy to win, and his brows were faintly locked.

After nightfall, Gao Yue was in the military mansion, and when he was cool with Han Yu and other officials, he shook his pu fan and said the reason: "The Yangtze River is like a dragon swinging its tail, I heard that the Buddhist temple on the Guazhou over there in Jingkou was not docked in the first 20 years, but in recent years, it has gradually 'gotten' on the south bank, and the Jingjiang River seems to be getting narrower and narrower, and there are more Shazhou at the sea." ”

So in today's race, the dragon boat in the shack is the victim.

"Doesn't that mean...... Will Yangzhou not be near the sea after that? ”

Han Yu's answer made Gao Yue nod, and then he sighed, "Yangzhou, the city, the status of the transportation hub is still there, but the status of the seaport is almost gone. ”
