Since the desolate clan is to set up a separate state, it is natural to set up a guard, but Yunchang and Yunye are awe-inspiring in their hearts, because they suddenly thought of a question, to set up a guard, are the soldiers of the guard station their deserted people or the soldiers of the Great Zhou?

Wang Ge Lao said with a smile: "The left guard is formed by the imperial court, and the right guard is formed by the barren people, but both the left guard and the right guard must obey the dispatch of the imperial court, and the appointment and dismissal of soldiers are also decided by the imperial court." ”

I was really worried about what I was worried about, Yun Ye's face couldn't help but change greatly when he heard this, even if he set up a guard, then all the soldiers should be their barbarians, how can they be from the Great Zhou?

This made him more uncomfortable than the officials elected by the imperial court, although Yun Chang's face did not change greatly, but his face was much more solemn.

Yun Chang groaned: "Elder Wang, although my desolate clan has returned to the imperial court, after all, the two sides have been at war for many years, and they can't achieve complete integration for a while, and the imperial court suddenly stationed troops in my desolate clan, I'm afraid it will cause a backlash." ”

Wang Ge Lao smiled: "Of course, the emperor also knows this, so he allowed the desolate people to form their own right guard, but the left guard is only 2,000 people, compared to the hundreds of thousands of people of the desolate tribe is not worth mentioning at all, if the desolate clan can't even accommodate this mere 2,000 people, then how can it be counted as a return to our dynasty?" ”

"Although the deserters migrate to the jungles in the southwest, they will inevitably deal with the local people, so how can they get along with them?"

Before Yunchang could speak, General Lin said in a deep voice: "High Priest, you should have been thinking calmly these days, speaking fairly, the emperor is very sincere about the return of the barren clan, and he is also very preferential to the barren clan." ”

"The points I said before the imperial banquet last time were not discussed, and what Wang Ge Lao said today is extremely fair, so the emperor made it clear that these points have nothing to talk about, and they are already the bottom line of our dynasty."

Yun Chang and Yun Ye glanced at each other, both had a solemn look in their eyes, and after they knew that the emperor wanted to recognize Xiao Qi as his sister, they also felt that the imperial court would take a step back.

Unexpectedly, the imperial court not only did not retreat, but had to move in.

But what General Lin said was categorical, and what made Yun Chang's heart shake even more was the attitude of the pavilion master, who also thought that what the emperor mentioned was very fair.

Seeing that Yun Chang and Yun Ye were very hesitant, the military department Shangshu said softly: "I don't know what the high priest is hesitating, since the desolate clan will be a state of my Great Zhou in the future, isn't it natural to send officials to set up a guard?" ”

"Besides, the emperor also gave special preferential treatment, let Zhizhou be hereditary, and let the barren clan form a guard by themselves. Why is the high priest still hesitant, and is there anything the high priest can think of? Even if the high priest still had any thoughts, the two thousand soldiers of the left guard were simply insignificant. ”

Yun Chang said solemnly: "Elder Ge, General Lin, Lord Shangshu, my desolate clan is sincerely obedient, I just want to live a peaceful life, and I have no dissent, but after all, my desolate clan has a small population, and I have lived alone for a long time, and I am also thinking about the emotions of my desolate clan." ”

Hubu Shangshu said with a smile: "The high priest doesn't need to be nervous, whether it is the emperor or the hundred officials in the court, they all believe that the desolate clan is sincere and obedient, otherwise we wouldn't be sitting here." ”

In fact, according to Wang Ge Lao's original idea, it was first proposed that the left guard and the right guard should be formed by the imperial court, and then the desolate people must be difficult to accept, bargain, and finally hand over the right guard to the desolate clan to be formed, so that the high priest would better accept it.

But the emperor said that this is not a vegetable market, there is no need to bargain so much, the court has the majesty of the court, since the barren clan wants to be obedient, and becoming the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty must be in awe of the court, not to make them feel that the court can bargain.

Wang Ge Lao and the others thought about it carefully, but they also felt that what the emperor said made sense. Since the desolate tribe has chosen to submit, it is time to fear the court.

Wang Ge said with a smile: "Actually, what the emperor means, these don't need to be discussed, this is the condition of my Great Zhou, and it is also the bottom line, if the desolate clan wants to be obedient, they must accept these." ”

There was no room for negotiation at all, Yun Chang couldn't help frowning slightly, and Yun Ye said in a deep voice: "There is no need to discuss, what is the old man inviting us to talk about today?" ”

Wang Ge Lao smiled: "It's not to negotiate, but to discuss how to move the desolate people out of the great wilderness, hundreds of thousands of people to help the old and the young travel thousands of miles, this is not a simple matter, if you don't prepare well, I don't know how many people will die along the way, and when you first arrive in the southwest, how to gain a foothold?" If you need the help of the imperial court, you must always come up with a charter, and the imperial court must also prepare in advance for such a big project. ”

Yun Chang and Yun Ye were silent, and after a long while, Wang Ge Lao said slowly: "High Priest, in fact, before the High Priest entered Beijing, the emperor has been thinking about it, this is the emperor's decision to weigh it repeatedly, and he said it directly and honestly, which is also the emperor's sincerity." ”

Yun Chang finally stopped groaning and nodded slowly: "Okay, our desolate clan obeys the decision of the imperial court!" ”

Wang Ge smiled and said, "Okay, in the future, the people of the Desolate Clan will be the people of our Great Zhou!" You and I are all family! ”

Yun Chang asked, "Then, I don't know when the emperor plans to go south?" ”

General Lin said: "Actually, Nanchu has been transferring troops and training troops recently, and they have already noticed that my Da Zhou has indeed been secretly preparing, although he has not yet mobilized troops and horses, but he has begun to prepare for food, grass and materials." ”

"However, if we really want to send troops, it will be about the beginning of spring next year. The emperor will gather the elite soldiers of the grassland and the Great Zhou to go south, while the desolate tribe will attack Qin Town, and I don't know if the desolate tribe's troops can break through Qin Town and march to the temple. ”

Yun Ye said: "The elite soldiers of the Great Zhou will definitely be able to contain most of the troops of Southern Chu when they go south, so why is it difficult for my desolate clan to break through Qin Town?" ”

Yun Chang groaned: "Although the soldiers of my desolate clan are brave, they lack food and grass, and my desolate clan submits to the imperial court, so it is naturally not good to rob the border towns and grasslands, this is difficult to endure in winter, and then use ......soldiers in the spring."

The military department Shangshu said with a smile: "The barren clan can still go to Nanchu to fight the autumn wind, of course, the imperial court will also support the barren clan with some grain and grass." ”

Without grain and grass, the Desolate Clan will indeed have a hard time this winter, after all, they can no longer plunder the Great Zhou and the grassland.

The general policy has been decided, and the rest can be bargained, and the two sides are so lively that you come and go.

Yunchang naturally wanted to get more grain and grass, after all, they were poor, they couldn't eat enough and didn't have enough clothing, and after the war, they also needed grain and grass for their clan migration, and they needed food and grass even more after migrating to the southwest.

In short, the more grain and grass, the better, and the barren people are really poor and afraid of hunger, and when it comes to grain and grass, their eyes almost light up.
