Everything was arranged, the leaders of the Hu people retreated, Zhang Liao went to the temporary camp, and was discussing with Xun Yu, Xun You, Guo Jia, Zhang Ji and others about the follow-up disposal of the Xiongnu and the reconstruction of the county houses.

"Xu Zhonglang." Zhang Liao saw Xu Rong who came in and smiled.

In this battle, the Qianghu soldiers led by Xu Rong made great achievements in it, and their role was also extremely critical, but because of the appeasement of the Huns, Xu Rong was not allowed to show up in public, but the reward would not be less, and the Qianghu soldiers under Xu Rong were all rewarded.

"My lord," Xu Rong hugged his fists and said: "Shangjun Shen Di has a meritorious role in cultivating Qiang to break the South Court, and when he saw that the Qiang people under the command of the last general were rewarded, he also asked for a reward." In order to avoid change, can it be removed? ”

"Reward?" Zhang Liao sneered.

This time the Southern Xiongnu rebelled, the pious Qiang of Xihe and the Shen Di of Shangjun were all accomplices, and the pious Qiang bore the brunt of the war, and was pacified at the beginning of the war.

Now they dare to brazenly ask for a reward, really think that they are not able to do it? It seems that Shen Yi has been entrenched in Shangjun for decades, and he has already developed the habit of emptying everything.

At this time, Xun Yu said on the side: "General, Shangjun, Beidi, Anding, the mountains and rivers are dangerous, the fertile fields are thousands of miles, the soil is suitable for animal husbandry, the water can be irrigated, but the pain is that the Qiang collapsed, the Yuan Yuan suffered a disaster, and the county and county soldiers have been in short supply for decades. It is not beneficial for a husband to abandon the fertile soil and donate the wealth of nature; It is difficult to defend the place where there is no danger from the obstruction of rivers and mountains. Now the Qiang people are rampant, and the general is determined to lead the volunteers and settle and cool, why not quickly take the upper county, the north and the stable land, so that the fertile soil can be spared, and the west can reject Liangzhou, collect the displaced people, and calm the hearts of the people. ”

Zhang Liao nodded, and immediately said: "I was going to recover Shangjun, but now the Qiang people are looking for trouble, and they are about to ask about their rebellion, Xu Zhonglang, with you as the general of the Qiang Zhonglang, the soldiers and horses will rest for a while, and five days later, he will divide his troops with Dian Zhonglang and march westward, and take Shangjun, Beidi and Anding in one fell swoop!" ”

"Order!" Xu Rong shouted his order.

Seeing Xu Rong come out happily, Zhang Liao shook his head helplessly, these generals under him are all militants, but in this troubled world, wouldn't these militants be needed.

Just like now, in local battles such as taking Shangjun, Beidi and Anding, there is no need to go out in person at all, with Xu Rong's cavalry and Dian Wei's infantry, it is enough to calm down.

He thought for a while, and then turned his head to look at Xun You: "Gongda, this time you will go out with the army, you are the Taishou of Shangjun, after defeating Qianghu, I will stay there to appease Shangjun, I will send five hundred guards to protect you, everything is careful." ”

Xun You bowed and saluted: "I will live up to the trust of the lord." ”

"Gongda is out of the horse, I am naturally relieved." Zhang Liao helped Xun You up with a smile, and looked at Guo Jia again: "Is there any movement in Xianbei outside the Saiwai?" ”

Guo Jia said with a smile: "Now they are in a mess, and they have no time to take care of anything else, and they are afraid that they will not know about the collapse of the Southern Court." ”

"That's just right, now that Nanting is settled, and the state needs to develop steadily, Xianbei will not provoke if it doesn't come to attack." Zhang Liao nodded and looked at Xun Yu and Zhang Ji: "Wen Ruo, De Rong, now that the internal troubles have been eliminated, how to educate the Hu people, calm their hearts, and make them integrate into the Han people as soon as possible depends on the two of you." ”

Xun Yu and Zhang Ji said solemnly: "Dare not do your best." ”

Zhang Liao said happily: "Wen has Wenruo, Derong, Zhengnan Zhujun, Gongda, Fengxiao, Gonghe, Wu Dianwei, Gao Shun, Zilong generals, why worry about the state is uncertain, and the people are uneasy." ”

In the following period, in addition to Xu Rong and Dian Wei, who sent troops to Shangjun, Beidi and Anding, Bingzhou began a comprehensive construction.

After recovering the Southern Xiongnu and other Hu tribes, Zhang Liao suddenly had an additional population of nearly 400,000 people, and the migratory Xiongnu were scattered to various counties and counties, and the land was quickly divided, and the Xiongnu who were willing to continue grazing were settled in the areas of Yunzhong, Shuofang and Wuyuan.

The more than 60,000 Hun soldiers captured in this battle were all engaged in large-scale construction, building houses, digging canals, tuntian, building roads, and mining coal mines, especially building houses and mining coal mines.

During this period, Zhang Liao personally went to the counties to inspect the construction situation and the implementation of government decrees, and everything made him quite satisfied, while Sima Lang, Xu Shu, Shi Tao, Fa Zheng and other young talents have obviously matured a lot after serving at the grassroots level for several months, and their style of action is clearer and more thoughtful.

After the inspection, Zhang Liao also found a problem: after the newly allocated fields were reclaimed, they could only be cultivated in the spring of next year, and the grain and grass in winter were a problem.

At this time, Zhang Liao remembered that he borrowed millions of stone grain from Jizhou a year ago, and because of the difficulty of transportation, he deposited most of the grain and grass in Zhongshan Zhen's, Su's and Zhang's wealthy merchants.

In terms of Shangjun, after Xu Rong and Dian Wei sent troops, they cooperated with the infantry and cavalry, and in less than half a month, they broke the Qiang Hu and recovered all of Shangjun.

In the final stage of the attack on Shangjun, Xun Yu used a strategy to order Xu Rong to send his Qiang Hu soldiers to pretend to be Shen Di Qiang to ask for help from the first zero Qiang in the north, and the first zero Qiang really sent troops, but at that time, the upper county had been decided, and Xu Rong and Dian Wei took the opportunity to attack Liangzhou Beidi County and Anding County to the west on the grounds of the invasion of the first Zero Qiang.

At this time, the three largest forces in Liangzhou, Ma Teng occupied Yixian in the western part of Guanzhong, Han Sui was far away in Jincheng, and Song Jian was also far away in Longxi to cut off the territory of Caohan, which was far away from Anding and Beidi, and there were only Qianghu forces in these two places, which was the best time to seize.

So the war was in full swing in Beidi County and Anding County, during the period, Zhang Liao and through Wang Yi and Huangfu Li, won the support of the local Han people, Wang Yi was born in Niyang, Beidi, and Huangfu's ancestral home is in Anding County, so under the combination of inside and outside, the war became extremely smooth, and the Qiang people were defeated in successive battles, and there have been many surrenders.

In the middle of December, the first snow fell in Bingzhou since the beginning of winter, and Zhang Liao, who accompanied several women in Fuzhong, wanted to go to Beidi and Anding to check it out in person and comfort the sergeants, after all, the winter battle was too hard.

Unexpectedly, in mid-December, Gao Lan, who was guarding Zhongshan and Changshan two counties, suddenly received news that Yuan Shao secretly sent people to lobby him and plot against the two counties.

At this time, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan successively experienced the Battle of Jieqiao, the Battle of Jumashui, and the Battle of Longcuo, and they won and lost each other, temporarily equalized the power, and breathed a sigh of relief, so they took the opportunity to come to Changshan Kingdom and Zhongshan County.

Changshan Country and Zhongshan County are Zhang Liao's next step, how can he give up, he immediately ordered Gao Shun to lead the troops to sit in Taiyuan, and he took Zhao Yun to Changshan and Zhongshan.
