Chapter 171 Governing the Western Regions, Ordering the Construction of Roads, Defending the Territory, and Dispatching Troops
Liu Bei arranged the government affairs of the four states.
Then he said: "Since the official road of Sizhou is to be built, the Sizhou post station also needs to be renovated, and the repaired post station can deliver letters for the people."
Charge a fee for delivering letters to the people, but not too high for the convenience of the people!
The road repair was completed, and Chang'an was selected as the central governance office, and Gumocheng was selected as the western governance office, and the four prefectures were integrated and governed.
The funds for the repair of roads, post stations and other facilities are all taken from the Silk Road in the Western Regions! Don't use any taxes!
I ordered the county officials to submit a book on the governance of each county to me for review every month, and at the same time, the state assassin history should submit the state affairs to me for review every half month! ”
In recent years, due to the inclusion of the Western Regions, Liangzhou, and Yongzhou under Liu Bei's rule, trade with Guishan, Kangju and even further places has become more and more prosperous.
However, the caravan led by Cheng Cheng has expanded to about 20,000 people. Due to the relatively good public security under Liu Bei's rule, basically every month there will be caravans from Chang'an to the Western Regions!
In addition, Emperor Han Ling died, and Liu Bei didn't need to pay 20 million yuan in tribute every year, so Liu Bei had really saved a lot of money over the years!
At the same time, Liu Bei launched Yu Budugen's trade in Liangzhou, and he got a lot of benefits. That's why Liu Bei dared to open his mouth to repair such a long official road!
After that, Liu Bei asked about the military affairs of the four states.
"Now I have the land of four states, but what is the state of the army?" Liu Bei asked again!
"My lord, there is a Xiaoguo army led by General Xu Huang Xu in Dawan County in the Northwest Prefecture, attacking the garrison of 25,000 troops;
Wuhan County and Wuwan County are garrisoned by the Hundred Battles Army and the Guards Army under the command of General Yan Liang and General Wen Chou, and there should be no major problems;
Wubei County is garrisoned by 20,000 troops commanded by Tian Feng, mainly to maintain law and order in Wubei County and Wuhan County!
In the southwest state, General Zhang Ren led 20,000 troops to be stationed in the lost county, mainly to maintain law and order in the southwest state;
General Guan Yu led 10,000 troops and 50,000 new troops to train with Gumo City. Jia Xu, who is more familiar with military affairs, said!
"Order the 20,000 troops commanded by Tian Feng to divide 10,000 into Yan Liang and Wen Chou's personal guard army and the hundred battle army respectively, so that they can each reach the number of two armies.
The remaining 10,000 troops were assigned to the three counties of Wuwan County, Wuhan County and Wubei County as county soldiers to maintain law and order. and appointed Tian Feng as the military advisor of the Hundred Battles Army and the Pro-Guard Army!
Ordered the 20,000 army under the command of Zhang Ren to divide an army of 12,500 people, merge it into Gongming's Xiaoguo Army, and garrison Dawan County. The remaining 7,500 soldiers were soldiers of Dawan County. and appointed Liu Ye as a military advisor!
Dispatch Zhang Ren to Liangzhou to participate in the war in Tibet!
Guan Yu was appointed to lead 10,000 plateau training soldiers to Liangzhou to participate in the war in Tibet.
Disperse all the 50,000 new troops trained in Gumo City to the eight counties of Southwest Prefecture, and the defenders of Gumo City are 10,000, and the rest of the counties and counties are 5,000!
Appointed Liao Hua, the deputy general of the pro-guard army, to lead 10,000 county soldiers to sit in Gumo City!
Li Li, Zheng Xu, Qin Ming, Lin Tao, Aini, Zahemu, Sha Yi, Aizezi, Batur, Toheti, Dawut, and Sadiq were appointed as lieutenants of the twelve counties of Southwest Prefecture and Northwest Prefecture respectively to maintain public order in the twelve counties!
Ordered, Mu Zepal, Rahman, Sabir and Adili will enter Liangzhou and pacify Tibet with me!
What is the number of soldiers and equipment in Yongzhou, Liangzhou? After Liu Bei gave an order, he began to inquire about some troops in Yongzhou, Liangzhou!
"The lord, the seven counties of Yongzhou, and the five thousand defenders in Chang'an City, are all newly recruited young and strong;
There are 10,000 Black Flag troops in Tongguan; The tiger and leopard rode three thousand; The new army is 50,000. Xun You said!
In this way, the Black Flag Army selected 40,000 elites from the new army, and formed a total of four armies, a total of 50,000 troops. It was led by Lu Bu, Zhang Fei was the deputy general, and Jia Xu was the military division stationed in Tongguan.
The 3,000 tiger and leopard cavalry were transferred back to Liangzhou and merged with the 10,000 plateau army commanded by Guan Yu into one army, and it was still called the tiger and leopard cavalry, led by Guan Yu, and Zhang Haolin was the deputy general!
The remaining 10,000 new troops in Tongguan were transferred to Chang'an, combined with the 5,000 troops in Chang'an, stationed in the seven counties of Yongzhou, and led by Huaxiong, Zhang Xiaozhi was the deputy general, and Tian Yuwei was the military division.
Tune Xun into Qinghai County, listen to it under the tent! ”
"My lord, there are 10,000 divine troops led by Ma Teng stationed in the Sanguan at the border with Hanzhong!" Xun You spoke again!
"My lord, in Liangzhou, in Wuwei County, the Shence Army of 12,500 troops led by General Zhang Yang and General Han Sui.
Now there are fifteen thousand gods in the lord's account;
the 25,000 Longxiang army led by Huang Zhong;
the 25,000 leopard Tao army commanded by Yan Yan;
About 40,000 captives held in Yicheng Hewuwei County! "Chen Gong has counted the number of troops in Liangzhou!
"Appoint Zhang Yang as the commander, Liang Xing as the deputy general, command the infantry of the first army, garrison the eight counties of Liangzhou, and train the infantry as cavalry as soon as possible!
Appointed Qin Liang as the main general and Yang Qiu as the deputy general, led the first army of Shence Army, stationed in Sanguan, and guarded Hanzhong!
Han Sui was appointed to garrison Yumen Pass, and Wen Ping was transferred from Yumen Pass to the tent to fight in the Western Regions together!
Appoint Huang Zhong as the chief general of the Longxiang army, and Naduo as the deputy general, commanding the 25,000 Longxiang army, and listen to the tent!
Select a group of soldiers from the Qiang captives in Yicheng and Wuwei County to merge into the Shence Army, with Zhang Ren as the main general and Ma Teng as the deputy general, and listen to the tent!
Appoint Yan Yan as the main general, Wen as the military general, command the two armies of the leopard Tao army, and listen to the use under the account!
Dispatch 3,000 women's troops to Liangzhou, and temporarily guard me by Commander Zhao Yun!
Zhang Liao was appointed to select an elite army from the captives of Yicheng and Wuwei County to merge into an army, and train day and night. ”
At this point, Liu Bei's current counties, localities, and armies have been arranged. In this rectification, Liu Bei commanded a total of 335,000 troops and dozens of generals!
However, due to the vastness of the Western Regions under his rule and the presence of strong enemies, the number of troops that Liu Bei could really use to conquer Tibet was only about 100,000!
In the following month, Yongzhou, Liangzhou, Southwest Prefecture, and Northwest Prefecture were all mobilizing troops.
The migration of more than a dozen tribes in Xiqiang is also nearing completion.
As for the captives in Yicheng, Wuwei County, Tongguan and other places, except for the 25,000 people who were picked up by Zhang Ren and Zhang Liao, all the rest were dragged to build official roads.
Not only that, but the Taishou of the four states and the twenty-seven counties also recruited laborers one after another, and paid the people of each county to participate in the construction of official roads!
Everything is in order!
Twenty days later, Guan Yu led 10,000 tigers and leopards to ride and 3,000 women's troops to arrive in Keqing County, and at the same time, Liu Bei also transferred Zhang Fei over!
At the same time, the army of Long Xiang, the army of Leopard Tao, the army of Shence and the army of Zhang Liao's new army have all been concentrated in Qinghai County, and the generals of each army have also been in place!
"Ladies and gentlemen, look at this map, there is a vast land in the southwest of this map, bordering Liangzhou, Yizhou and the Western Regions, and I will name this place Tibet.
Hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of people live in the area, and horses are abundant. The short-legged horses ridden by the tigers and leopards under the command of Yun Chang were born here!
Now Dong Zhuo is fighting openly and secretly with the princes of Shandong, but it is also the time for us to conquer Tibet, and I want to raise an army of 100,000 to attack Tibet.
In anticipation of opening up the road between Tibet and Liangzhou, the road connecting Tibet with the Western Regions, and the road connecting Tibet with Yizhou.
However, Tibet has a plateau climate, which is different from the western regions of Liangzhou, so after entering Tibet, we need to adapt to it for a while! Liu Bei said slowly.
Just as Liu Bei was preparing to attack Tibet, the situation in the Central Plains was constantly changing.
After Dong Zhuo left Hanguguan and returned to Luoyang, due to the too large reduction of troops, he recruited young people in Hedong County, Hongnong County, Hanoi County and Yinsan County of Henan.
A total of 200,000 new troops were recruited in a month, and basically young and strong people over the age of 16 and under 40 were conscripted into the army.
And because of the lack of pillars in the people's homes, life has become more and more difficult.
However, Dong Zhuo was overjoyed because he had 300,000 troops in his hands, but he no longer talked about the princes of the world.
Day and night, the palace maids and concubines in the palace camp were in the dragon bed, and Emperor Han Xian dared to be angry and did not dare to speak.
At the same time, due to the repeated miraculous achievements of the general Pan Feng in the battle against the princes of the Eighteen Routes, Dong Zhuo also became more and more trusting and fond of this righteous son.
