10. The bridge is on guard
Li Huaiguang smiled: "Isn't Gao Yue afraid that the Western Fan coerced the pheasant clan to invade Jingzhou and affect himself?" ”
Gao Ying took the opportunity to reply that we can't control this matter, presumably Gao Yue must have a way to deal with it.
Li Huaiguang then did not object, he also wanted to drive these pheasants out of the Pengyuan area of Ningzhou, because this group of Xiaofan only knew how to steal chickens and touch dogs, if Gao Yue was willing to appease, it would be a good thing for him to put them in the north or west of Jingzhou.
Not surprisingly, Gyeongju Thorn Shi Du also entered politics out of "lazy politics" considerations, and also wrote back to allow the pheasant tribe to leave Dachangwon in the south of Gyeongju, and let them go to Linjing and Zhenwon through the post horse pass at the junction of Jing, Qing, and Ningzhou.
As soon as the snow had melted, the pheasant tribe began to lead five or six thousand people under the leadership of the patriarch Qiao Raccoon Fox, driving tens of thousands of livestock—cattle, sheep, horses, and camels—across the mountains and fields, looking at Linjing in the southwest.
The civet had received a letter from Gao Yue, and the messenger of the other party had brought 150 horses of colored silk in exchange, begging the chief of the pheasant tribe to let go of the three captive camel merchants.
"I waited for the snowstorm in Gyeongju, many livestock froze to death, I heard that the boundary of Jingzhou is rich in water and grass, and the boundary is cold, so I have to leave my hometown to come here, since the senior servant agrees, I can't wait." At this time, Qiao Xi faced Gao Yue's messenger and took the cloth and released the people, but he never mentioned that they had plundered the trade routes, and only wanted to go to Jingzhou, where the snow was relatively light, to occupy the territory.
The messenger also agreed, saying that the second group of messengers from the high servant would arrive at once, and asked you to wait in the area of Zhenyuan after passing through the post horse pass.
Because the pheasant tribe is a big family, there are three party items with more than 1,000 people behind its buttocks, namely "Xuzhou Qiang", "Mozhou Qiang" and "Xicang Qiang", all of which want to try their luck with the pheasant tribe - Jingzhou has a gentle land boundary, grass and beautiful soil, and the environment is much stronger than that of Gyeongju.
However, when he first arrived in the north of Zhenyuan, the cunning Qiaoxi ordered the whole clan to stop and camp, and then ordered and coerced the two small Fan Luo, "Mozhou Qiang" and "Xicang Qiang", to continue to move forward, so as to test Gao Yue's attitude.
If the wind doesn't go the right way, he'll turn around and run away.
As a result, under the old city of Zhenyuan, Gao Yue sent Liu De, the chief secretary of Lingtai County, who met the two "Mozhou Qiang" and "Xicang Qiang", and immediately asked them to lead them across the Rushui River and go to Linjing City to accept resettlement.
The two little fans were very happy, although they were a little scared, but according to Liu De's arrangement, they took their families and livestock across Rushui to Linjing City.
Later, the chieftain of Xicangqiang dragged Jiubo and sent several clansmen to ride horses to report to Qiaoxi, which meant that the Tang family had said that they would take us in.
But Qiaoxi's vigilance is still very strong, and he is still not at ease, so he lets Xuzhou Qiang go further, and he still does not move.
Within two days, more than 1,000 people of the Qiang clan in Xuzhou also crossed the Rushui.
At this time, Gao Yue himself personally arrived at Linjing City, and as soon as Xiang Qiang, the party of the three small states, saw Gao Shiyu wearing a scarlet robe and riding a white horse, and the rangers behind him were in strict order, and they knew that the magnanimity of the Tang family angel was really extraordinary, so they all gathered around to worship and fell, and the wilderness around Linjing was full of people, full of praise.
Gao Yue shouted to the party items in the three small states through a translator, "You are originally a small fan in Gyeongju, and your livelihood is difficult, and I am an envoy appointed by the Emperor of Chang'an, and my punishment will be lenient!" After that, Yin Mi and Liangyuan are allocated to you and others as pastureland, and they are close to the military state, so don't disturb yourself. ”
"Hooray!" The three small states of the party Xiang Shan shouted.
Gao Yue then demanded that a total of 4,500 people from the three small prefectures, together with the cattle and horses they had driven, form a procession, form a long straight line, and then cross the Yangjinchuan River in the south, and march along Huizhongshan, five miles west of Jingzhou City, to the area of Liangyuan, where they will be resettled.
Because Gao Yue had reached an agreement in advance with the camp in Jingyuan, requiring the soldiers of Jingzhou not to invade and plunder the livestock and goods of the three small states, he arrived in the area of Liangyuan and Duyuan unscathed three days later, and he was even more grateful to the envoys of the Tibetan army.
On the way, Gao Yue sent messengers one after another, urging the pheasant tribe to also cross the Rushui River and Yangjin River, and deal with them together.
But the devil-hearted Qiaoxi saw that the three accompanying Xiaofanluo were instantly pulled away by Gao Yue, but he felt more and more isolated and frightened, and wanted to turn back to Dachangwon, Gao Yue's messenger threatened him: "Now that it is snowing heavily in Gyeongju, many livestock are frozen to death, and the grain and wheat are not born. ”
Qiao Lifu was helpless, so he sent another letter to ask Gao Yue: "The clansmen love the old land, and they are not happy to stay away from Gyeongju, and hope to settle near the old city of Zhenwon. ”
It turned out that this bridge raccoon still wanted to be the first rat at both ends, and was ready to settle down in the north of Jingzhou, so that it could retreat when the situation was wrong.
He knew that after all, he had plundered Gao Yue's horses, and he owed a blood debt to his sister, which could not be easily resolved by this Liangzi.
This year, the snow disaster in Gyeongju was serious, and he wanted to move south to Pengyuan, Ningzhou for the winter, but Li Huaiguang ordered Xiahou Ying, the assassin of Ningzhou, to strictly guard the pass and drive the pheasant tribe away from Pengyuan, so he ran to Jingzhou in desperation.
Unexpectedly, Gao Yue soon sent a messenger again, saying that our Han gentlemen pay attention to "repaying grievances with virtue", and that God has the virtue of a good life, and you and other clansmen can spend the winter in the Zhenyuan area, don't worry.
Originally, he robbed Gao Yue of the hundred horses he bought from Shizhou, but now he sent back fifty to show his goodwill, and also sent the corpses of the seven sisters who had been killed before.
When the pheasant tribesmen sent fifty horses and seven corpses to Baili New Town, it happened that the four hundred forbidden horses sent by the idle stables outside the capital also arrived.
"The 750 military horses purchased by our military government are all marked with the word "town", which is distinguished from the "flying" character seal of the forbidden horses! Gao Yue ordered.
After making the brand, Gao Yue took all the 1,150 war horses, escorted by Ming Huaiyi, through the Huangshan River Valley, and sent them to Wei Gao in Huangyang City first.
At this time, Zhu Zhu came to inspect, Wei Gao put all the war horses into the wild, and invited Zhu Zhu to climb the high platform of Huangyang New City to look at it - more than 1,000 horses galloped in the square under the city, and the sound of hooves was like thunder, so not spectacular!
"Under the festival, is the appearance of the military horse that Gao Yisong and I bought majestic?" Wei Gao took the opportunity to ask.
"Majestic ......and majestic" Zhu Zhu said that the 20,000 yuan was not spent in vain, and he originally only expected to get 400 horses, who would have thought that he would get so many horses.
As soon as Zhu Zhu left Wangyang, Wei Gao asked his cousin Wei Yi to secretly escort all these horses to Baili New Town.
A few days later, Zhu Jun came to Baili New Town to inspect Ma Zheng, Gao Yue invited him to climb the city, Zhu Zhu saw that between the beautiful peaks of Cangshan and Taishan outside the city, thousands of military horses were muscular, their manes were fluttering, their feet were galloping, and the grassland was full of flowers and flowers printed and dyed by various skin colors.
"Under the festival, the appearance of the military horses that Wei Chengwu and I bought is majestic?"
"Majestic ......"
After Zhu Zhu's inspection, Gao Yue and Wei Gao conspired to build a book of horses, of which the number of "town horses" was only 750, but 1,200 were made, and every year they used this as a basis to ask the military government for horse grazing funds.
Next, Gao Yue began to collect all the Tuntian soldiers into Baili New Town, test their archery skills, and asked the city to prepare the entire army to receive weapons.
