Pei Ju turned everything through his mind, and felt that there was no problem, so he walked into the conference hall. The Great Treasure King Niluo Zhou was assassinated when he was resettling Fu Yun's old department in Xihai County, and Fu Shun, who was sent by the imperial court to manage the four counties, fled back to Xiping County and never dared to move forward; In the face of the discussion of the ministers, Pei Ju was ready to divert the attention of Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty and get a thousand countries to come to the court to save the current situation.

swept away at a glance, what surprised Pei Ju was the expressions of Yang Xiong, the king of Guan, and Duan Wenzhen, the secretary of the military department, who were all full of energy, without the slightest look of frustration and embarrassment; The right servant shot Su Wei was speaking: "In this situation, the only way to do this is to let Liu Quan first go west in Tuntian, Heyuan County, and wait for the right time before going west." "Heyuan County governs Chishui City, leading Chishui and Yuanhua counties, close to the Great Sui, and it is also the smallest of the four counties.

Su Wei's goal became so small, the generals were in an uproar, and the general of the Right Tun Guard, Mai Tiecan, asked bluntly: "Su Xiang, the Son of Heaven is personally conscripted, the army of 300,000 people is coming west, and Xue Yantuo sent troops to help, this is not the time, when is the right time, is it really necessary to recruit one million troops to control this area." ”

Su Wei said coldly: "It's not so simple to govern a place, the four counties are all old people from Tuyuhun, we can't kill them all, right?" Relying on the exiled prisoners, a drop in the bucket, can do a good job in the tuntian of Heyuan County, it is considered good. ”

Li Jing, the general of the Right Martial Guard, asked: "Su Xiang, since you know that the army is coming west, Shangshu Province should have multiple countermeasures, and it won't be all abandoned like this, right?" ”

"How can it all be wasted?" Pei Ju immediately interjected: "It's just that the Great Treasure King Niluo Zhou was assassinated, and there was an accident, and after a while, I will be able to find the right person to go to Shanshan Prefecture." This kind of thing can't be rushed, and Tuntian, Heyuan County, is only the beginning of the matter, not the end. ”

Emperor Yang Guang of Sui nodded and said, "Duan Shangshu, tell me what you know." ”

Duan Wenzhen immediately stood up, pointed to the map on the table and said: "Xihai County is the Qinghai Lake area centered on Fuqicheng, the original capital of Tuyuhun, and the population is the most dense among the four counties. This morning, the military department has received a report from Yang Yichen that all the tribes of Niluo Zhou have been received to Jimo County; At present, Yang Yichen controls the oases along the two cities of Suning, Furong and the Cherchen River, and is ready to let the tribes of Niluo Zhou graze in the pastures in front of the East Kunlun Mountains. ”

The people present were all shocked, and the end of the county is on the west side of Qinghai Lake, can directly go north to the Hetao, connect Dunhuang, just because of the interference of the Western Turks and Xue Yantuo, the army of Dunhuang can not go south, if Yang Yichen has already occupied the end of the county, it is too beneficial to the Great Sui, not only can it be sandwiched by Qinghai Lake and Pu Sea; Going north can even open a passage with the Hetao Corps. Li Jing asked: "The army of the Twelve Guards has not moved, where did the military department transfer the troops from?" ”

Guan Wang Yang Xiong smiled and said: "Do you still remember the soldiers and Liuken soldiers of Hanchuan Shu, the military department imitated this model of recruitment in Yumen Pass, and due to the rush of time, only 3,000 cavalry were recruited, and they were handed over to Yang Yichen together with 1,500 cavalry of Hanchuan Shu." Together with the 2,500 men of Yang Yichen's headquarters, a total of 7,000 cavalry crossed Qinghai Lake; Yang Yichen even subdued the Heavenly Wolf Gang, and 5,000 horse thieves were incorporated into the Sui army, so he easily took the last county. ”

Pei Ju's face was gloomy and he asked, "When did Yang Yichen send troops?" ”

Duan Wenzhen hesitated for a moment and said, "At the same time as Fu Shunxi goes." ”

Yu Shiji immediately thought of the key and asked, "Could it be that the military department guessed that Fu Shun would escape back?" ”

How could Duan Wenzhen fall into such a handle, and immediately denied it: "The military department just thought that there would be Tuyuhun people who would escape, and wanted to make some war merits, and by the way, train the soldiers." Unexpectedly, after the accident of the Great Treasure King Niluo Zhou, Fu Shun fled regardless of his duties, and Yang Yichen had to do as many things as he could. ”

Everyone didn't believe Duan Wenzhen's words, the tribes of Niluo Zhou included the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled, and it was impossible to retreat without a detailed plan and an excellent timing, so many people and livestock, how could the immortal king Ma Zhong not pay attention. Considering that at that time, the imperial court still pinned its hopes on Pei Ju's alternative strategy, Duan Wenzhen couldn't come up with anything, and he couldn't persuade Yang Guang to send troops at all, Duan Wenzhen and Yang Yichen must have played a yin and yang game. Su Wei asked, "How does the end of the county make a field?" ”

Duan Wen Zhencheng said in his chest: "There are about 6,000 local residents, most of whom are Han Chinese, and the Heavenly Wolf Gang also has more than 3,000 dependents. Sixty acres of land or one hundred acres of pasture per soldier; 150 acres of land or 200 acres of pasture per person over 100 people; 500 acres of land per person, or 300 acres of pasture. The family members of more than 1,000 officers went to Dunhuang, according to the practice of the imperial court, if the fields and pastures were not enough, and then arranged for the surplus people to go to Shanshan County. ”

Su Wei had nothing to say, the plan of the military department was to use the Heavenly Wolf Gang and the Niluo Zhou tribe to control the end of the county, and after Yang Yichen's seven thousand cavalry was repaired, it was natural to open up a new battlefield. Yu Shiji sighed and praised: "Duan Gong is really a good means, good land and pasture, even if Fu Yun fights back, it will be a fierce battle." But I still have to ask, the governance in the future won't be so simple, right? ”

Duan Wenzhen immediately replied: "The governance in the back is a matter for Shangshu Province, but my suggestion is to quickly send Taishou and county orders, take over the government decree while Yang Yichen's army is still there, and send doctors and scholars to spread Sinicization." ”

Pei Yun thought for a moment and asked, "Duan Shangshu, do the prisoners still need to be sent to Jimo County?" ”

"Yes, the more pawns, the better." Duan Wenzhen said: "Once the oasis is occupied later, it is necessary to build a walled city in each village, and only a small number of guards will be left in each walled city, and the villagers will take up arms to guard the village during the war; Every ten miles long, even the walled city can not only provide shelter for the people, but also serve as a supply place for the army, and give some small tribes who have taken refuge in the Great Sui as a hiding place, so I need a large number of soldiers. ”

Duan Wenzhen's method was clearly preparing to march into Qinghai Lake and Pu Shihai, and the generals of the military were very excited, with the base of Hemo County, and the strategy of Heyuan County and Dunhuang County, the probability of success was very high. Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty only spoke at this time: "Pei Aiqing, you quickly find out the people who are willing to contribute to the Great Sui in Xihai County, and work with Duan Aiqing to firmly control the four counties in the hands of the Great Sui. ”
