On May 12, under the deployment of Zhao Ziliang, the Western Qin army began to unify the combat mission of encircling and suppressing the deserters of the barbarian rebels. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The barbarian rebel deserters were poorly equipped, more than half of them had no weapons, and more than two-thirds of them discarded their armor and leather armor in the process of escaping.

The process of encirclement and suppression went smoothly, and generals such as Zhao Bei and Zhamu marched all the way, and in just one month, all the barbarian rebel deserters were wiped out.

On June 15, five days after all the barbarian rebel deserters were exterminated, Zhao Bei, Zamu and others led their troops back to Dafeichuan to report to Zhao Ziliang.

At night, Zhao Ziliang sent someone to bring Zamu to the big tent of the Chinese army, and Zamu immediately saluted Zhao Ziliang and said: "The villain greets the king!" ”

Zhao Ziliang said: "Zamu, you don't have to call yourself a villain, you can call yourself a minister, you are already a courtier of this king!" Get up".

Zamu was overjoyed and thanked him: "Thank you, King!" Thanksgiving! ”

After Zamu got up, Zhao Ziliang said: "The war here has ended, and the mission of the Tubo servant army has also been completed, including the Tubo mercenaries・・・・・・"

Before Zhao Ziliang finished speaking, Zamu's face changed, and he hurriedly knelt down and cried: "O king, the minister has been loyal since he returned to the king, and he has never slacked off in serving the king, and the minister still wants to continue to serve the king in the future, please don't drive the minister away・・・・・・

Zhao Ziliang smiled and helped Zamu up, and said, "Don't worry, listen to this king!" That's the case, the Tibetan mercenaries are hired, and now that the war is over, they will be disbanded, as for the Tibetan servant army, these soldiers have all surrendered, and this king should be careful that after disbanding them, they will become rogues and bandits! These days, after thinking about it, this king has decided to reorganize the Tubo mercenary army and servant army, eliminate the disabled, the old and weak, and leave the strong! Dismiss all the soldiers and disabled soldiers over the age of 35, give them a part of the severance pay, let them unload their armor and return to the fields, and leave behind 100,000 strong soldiers to be organized into a plateau army! The plateau army has 30 divisions, each division has 3,000 people, and this king has decided to appoint the eldest prince Zhao Lei as the commander of the plateau army and you as the deputy commander! After the reorganization of the plateau army was completed, it immediately went to Tianzhu to garrison all over the country! ”

"Yes, my lord! Obey! Zamu immediately agreed, but asked, "The eldest prince?" Where is the Great Prince? ”

"Be the protector of the Tianzhu Metropolitan Protector's Mansion!" Zhao Ziliang said, paused, and continued: "Tianzhu has been submissive to my Western Qin for two years, and it has always been military control before, Zhao Lei is in charge of both government affairs and military affairs, but my Western Qin has rules, and all localities implement the separation of military and political affairs, and if you manage government affairs, you must not manage military affairs, and you must not manage government affairs. In the past two years, Tianzhu has also stabilized, so Tianzhu must be separated from the military and the government, and after the arrival of the Plateau Army, the eldest prince will step down from the post of Tianzhu Protector and become the commander of the Plateau Army, you will be his deputy, assist him in leading the Plateau Army to guard Tianzhu! Tianzhu soldiers, you also saw it, all of them are too lazy to die, even if they put a knife on their necks, they are also dragging their feet, this is still an army, you can imagine what happened to the people of Tianzhu, after you arrived in Tianzhu, you assisted the eldest prince to lead the soldiers and horses, if Tianzhu has a rebellion, you must carry out severe suppression, and you will not be soft! ”

Zamu immediately said: "Yes, the minister must follow the king's will!" ”

Zhao Ziliang's meaning is actually very obvious, that is, to send the Tubo soldiers after reorganization to Tianzhu to garrison, and send the Tianzhu soldiers to the Tubo garrison, so that after the exchange of defenses, whether it is the Tubo soldiers or the Tianzhu soldiers, there is no support from the people in the defense area as a foundation, and it is difficult to succeed in rebelling.

Zhao Ziliang thought for a while and said to Zamu: "There is still something you need to do!" ”

Zamu's chest straightened, "Please command, the king!" ”

"There are thousands of surrendered party members in the battalion, you lead the troops to kill all of them, and not a single one is left! Remember, only men are killed, women remain! ”

Zamu immediately agreed: "Yes, the king, the minister understands!" ”

Chen Qing and others are responsible for the reorganization of the Tubo servant army and mercenaries, and Zhao Ziliang does not have to worry about it. On June 16, he summoned his ministers to discuss preparations before leaving for Chang'an.

"Since the deserters of the barbarian rebels have all been wiped out, we will arrange the preparations before going to Chang'an, first of all, we must reorganize the servant army and mercenaries, this matter is in charge of Chen Qing, and now it has already begun, after the reorganization of the Tubo servant army and mercenaries, only 100,000 people will remain, named the Plateau Army! Zhao Lei was revoked as the protector of the Tianzhu Prefecture, and Li Boyu took over as the protector of the Tianzhu Prefecture, and appointed Zhao Lei as the commander of the Plateau Legion, with Zhamu as the deputy commander, and organized into 30 divisions, each with 3,000 people! After the reorganization of the Plateau Corps was completed, it went to Tianzhu and was stationed in various places, while garrisoning and training. Then the Tianzhu servants stationed in Tianzhu were transferred to all parts of Tubo to be stationed in Tibet, this matter was completed within two months, and after the arrival of the Tianzhu soldiers, the main force of our Western Qin army waved to Chang'an! Two years later, the Military Machinery Institute will arrange for the Plateau Army, the Tianzhu Army and the garrisons in other regions to change guards! The Mumballa army and the Nibora mercenaries had also completed their combat mission this time, so they were ordered to return to the Nibhara. Draft an edict and send it to the king of Nibora to reward him and the Nibora army for their outstanding performance in this expedition to Tibet! ”

The scribes next to him kept writing Zhao Ziliang's orders, while the ministers listened quietly.

Zhao Ziliang continued: "Secondly, the task of Dugu Wenshu, the vice minister of the Government Council, in Tianzhu has been completed, and he has been ordered to return to Xinjing to assist Cen Shen in handling government affairs. Send edicts to the Government Affairs Yuan, the Judicial Temple, the Military Aircraft Academy, the Jinyi Guard, and the Dadu Protectorate respectively to convey the will of the king. If there are major military and political affairs that cannot be decided, the text will be sent to Chang'an with an expedited 800 li to the king! ”

"Send a letter to the officials in various parts of Tibet, convey the instructions of the king, build the road from Tianzhu to Luo, and build the road from Luozhi to Shanzhou, and build a post station at least every 100 miles!"

"Send official documents to the governments of Xizhou, Guazhou, Shazhou, Suzhou, Ganzhou, Liangzhou and other places, requisition and dispatch people to build roads, and the road from Tingzhou to Jincheng must be repaired, and the abandoned post stations in the past must be rebuilt, and troops must be sent to garrison them!"

When Zhao Ziliang said this, he paused, his eyes swept among the ministers, raised his hand and pointed at Li Muchen and said: "Li Muchen, your writing is good, you come to draft a chapter for the emperor for this king, this king wants to lead troops to Chang'an, and he has to go to Chang'an with the emperor's permission to let the checkpoints of various cities along the way go, do you want this king to lead the army all the way to Chang'an?" In that case, instead of saving Datang, we will become traitors! ”

Li Muchen was named by Zhao Ziliang to draft the recital, which made many ministers very envious, after all, it was not easy to be favored and recognized by Zhao Ziliang. Li Muchen was also shocked, and immediately stood up and bowed and saluted: "Weichen obeys the order!" ”

"Zhao Bei!"

"The minister is here!" Zhao Bei stood up and bowed with his fists in his hands.

Zhao Ziliang instructed: "You go to Chen Qing, select the three thousand most brave and strong men from the plateau army that is being reorganized, complete the selection within three days, and organize it into the selection of the front army, and you will be the commander, and the training will be carried out immediately after the formation is completed!" The requirements given to you by this king are: first, strict military discipline; second, practice diligently; Third, ideological education must be carried out every day. The demands on these people must not be relaxed for a moment, and they must be obedient and obedient!"

Zhao Bei said solemnly: "Yes, the minister obeys the order!" ”

Zhao Ziliang said to everyone again: "This time I went to Chang'an, this king decided to only take the escort army, the Huya army, and the Xuanfeng army, and the 99th Army Corps, the Mountain Army, the Second Army Corps, and the Fourth Army Corps all returned to Western Qin!" All parts of the Ninth Army are scattered all over Tubo to guard, when to change the guard and wait for the change of guard order from the king and the military aircraft institute! ”

Gao Shang stood up and arched his hand: "The king, the Guards and the Huya Army have suffered some losses in the process of this expedition to the Tibetan tribes, although they are now fully replenished, but there are only 5,500 people, plus the newly formed Xuanfeng Army is only 8,500 people, to protect the safety of the king and his ministers, is this force too small?" ”

"Not a lot! Too many soldiers and horses accompanying us will increase the expenditure of military spending, and the tens of thousands of soldiers in our headquarters eat horses and chew horses, and the daily consumption is too great! Zhao Ziliang waved his hand as he spoke, looked at a few generals, and continued: "At present, the Military Machinery Institute is expanding the army, and after the army returns to Western Qin, it is just right to expand the army while resting. Soldiers of age and disabled soldiers should be allowed to retire when they should be retired, and those who need to be replenished should be replenished in a timely manner. According to the plan, the maximum establishment of each regiment is 30,000 people, and now there are generally only more than 12,000 people, so there is a big gap in the number of soldiers that need to be replenished, and it may not be completely replenished in a year or two. ”

The generals said: "The ministers understand, please rest assured!" ”

Zhao Ziliang asked again: "Zheng San, how many cattle, sheep and horses do we have now?" How much grain and forage is there? ”

Zheng San stood up and said: "Great King, this time to conquer the Tibetan tribes and eliminate the barbarian rebels, our army has captured a large number of cattle, sheep and horses, and now there are 30,000 cattle, 120,000 sheep, and 90,000 horses. If the Plateau Legion that is being reorganized is sent to Tianzhu, the food can be enough for my headquarters to eat for three years, although the amount of forage is huge, but it can't support too many livestock, and it can only last for half a year! ”

Zhao Ziliang thought for a while and ordered: "This time, I will go to Chang'an and bring some cattle and sheep to supply meat and dairy products to the army, and the rest will be left here to raise sheep, in addition to the original war horses of each army, and bring another 10,000 war horses for transfer!" A large pasture was set up here, or several pastures, where these cattle, sheep and horses were raised, and there were special people to harvest forage and feed them, and the meat and war horses of the army were supplied by these pastures every year. The seized gold, silver, copper coins, jewelry and other property, leaving gold and silver, others such as jewelry and copper coins were rewarded to the soldiers, and the gold and silver were melted into gold and silver ingots and brought to Chang'an! You can do the rest of the things, in short, you have to arrange everything before our army leaves! ”

Zheng San agreed: "Weichen understands, follow the king's will!" ”
