"Brother Jifu, what do you mean by the eight words "teacher?" Zhang Dun asked curiously.

Lu Huiqing laughed and said, "With your intelligence, you can't guess, why do you need to ask me?" ”

Zhang Dun said with a hippie smile: "It's not about being on time, don't spoil Master's big deal." ”

"Hahaha, that's it, I'll make it clear, anyway, if something goes wrong, just push it on me."

Seeing that his bad intentions were exposed, Zhang Dun hurriedly waved his hand, "How dare you, there is a mistake, everyone bears it together." ”

Lu Huiqing was too lazy to listen to his perfunctory words, and said to herself: "Master is saying that if you naturalize the Han family, you must treat it as your own person, and if you refuse to naturalize, then you are barbarians, for barbarians?" Naturally, we must educate them well, let them return to the royal road, in short, we must make the Western Regions become the land of China, and the people of the Great Song Dynasty are all above. ”

Zhang Dun pretended to suddenly realize, and said curiously: "What if someone is obsessed?" ”

"It's not easy, you have to go your own way!"

The two of them looked at each other, and they both showed deceitful smiles, Wang Ningan sent such two sinister guys, and it was clear that they wanted to do something.

Zhang Dun and Lu Huiqing are not weak scholars, the two of them left Liu Yi and other expert teams, directly with 200 people, quickly rushed to Xuzhou, and then guarded by the Shanzi Battalion, entered Qingtang, and went straight to Xixia from Qingtang.

At the end of February, the two of them rushed to the Western Regions, all the way to Puchanghai.

It's not like the imaginary desolation.

When Wang Ningan deployed the army, he did not blindly pursue combat power, and he arranged 3,000 engineers to Zhao Zongjing. This is also the experience left behind by fighting in Youzhou.

The army often enters the grassland for hundreds of miles, needs to build camp fortifications, needs to build bridges and roads, and is inseparable from the engineering troops.

These engineers were no different from the light cavalry in normal times, but they brought a lot of ropes, gunpowder, and sapper shovels and other equipment, and after arriving in Puchanghai, these people could play a huge role.

You must know that Puchanghai is barren, and there is nothing but reeds.

The weather was very cold, and it often snowed, and even the tenacious Tangut people couldn't hold it for long.

However, this difficulty did not deter the engineers.

They mobilized everyone to harvest the reeds of Pu Changhai and then make them into reed mats.

But what can you do with just a reed mat, and don't you still have to be frozen?

Just when everyone was puzzled, the engineer dug a three-foot deep and about one zhang deep ground in the ground, and then swept the reed into a cone, supported by a poplar tree in the middle, and instantly turned it into a tent for shelter.

Each nest will be covered with two layers of reed mats, the inner layer is insulated, the outer layer is watered, and the cold wind will freeze the reed mats, so that there is a strong protective layer, even if the wind and sand blow, there is no need to be afraid.

Such a simple and warm approach opened the eyes of Khotanese people.

Even Yu Chiyan was dumbfounded, and couldn't help but join the ranks of the work.

The princess of the Great Song Dynasty may mean golden branches and jade leaves, but the princess of Khotan is responsible and undertaking, and Yu Chiyan worked hard to learn everything about the Song army.

For example, they require that all reed mats must be of the same size, and that the process of weaving reed mats must be exactly the same, without any exceptions.

At first, the women in Khotan were not used to it, but after three days, they consciously did what they were told.

In less than ten days, everyone's quarters were ready.

The camp was divided into two large areas, one for the remnants of Khotan, less than 4,000 people, and on the other for the 20,000 Great Song garrisons.

Zhao Zongjing is not a fool, he knows very well that here are all strong young men who have traveled thousands of miles, and there are a bunch of female dependents over there, if something goes wrong, he has just come to the Western Regions, and his reputation will be ruined, which will not be good.

In addition to arranging accommodation, Zhao Zongjing also scattered people and looted everywhere.

That's right, it's robbery!

In this part of the Western Regions, almost everyone is a robber.

Killing others and taking their property for themselves is like animal instinct, Zhao Zongyi and Di Yong are not used to it, one of them is an honest son of the clan, and the other is an upright soldier, in their hearts, soldiers and bandits are completely two things.

Letting them do the sand thieves is worse than killing them.

Zhao Zongjing also had no choice.

He could only hand over the task to Wang Ningxuan, and even Zhao Li, when they led the troops to the battle, Wei Chiyan's eyes were obviously shining, and he was extremely happy.

If it weren't for the sake of maintaining the image of a lady, she couldn't wait to go out and loot.

If you are in the Western Regions, you must be familiar with the laws here, except for your own people, the rest are enemies, and robbery is like the Song people planting and weaving cloth, it is the instinct of survival.

When you grab the most possessions and have the largest number of men, you can divide the land as the king, take off the thief's skin, and become a serious court, and your minions will become official soldiers.

Here, there is no difference between a soldier and a bandit in essence!

There is only success or failure! There is no right or wrong!

The mistake of Khotanese may be that they are too weak!

Obviously, with the help of the Great Song Dynasty, the banner of Khotan has regained people's awe.

Killing, looting...... Herds of cattle and sheep, grain, all kinds of jewelry, spices, medicinal herbs and animal skins, more and more, a hundred miles around Puchanghai, completely turned into their territory.

In addition to the cargo, there were several thousand prisoners.

According to Zhao Li's idea, they should all be killed, and if they are killed, they can save food and use all the precious resources on their own people.

Wang Ningxuan remembered the story that the second brother had told...... He said that on a distant continent, there are lion packs, and whenever the old lion king is defeated, the new lion king can have all the wives of the old lion king, and the new lion king will also kill all the offspring of the old lion king, saving time and resources to make way for his children.

How like, in this war-torn land, people are living according to the laws of beasts.

Wang Ningxuan has no ambition to change the world, but he instinctively feels that it is a waste.

For the first time, Wang Ningxuan rejected the proposal of the future eldest brother, he organized all the captives into a team and let them be responsible for the labor, Pu Changhai's arable land should be reclaimed, and after the flowers bloomed, they would build a brick kiln and burn cement, and by this time next year, they would be self-sufficient, and they would have a strong city, and maybe more......

Facing the cold wind, a group of young people led by Zhao Zongjing endured extreme deprivation, but their hearts were extremely satisfied.

Create a foundation and have a civilization.

We can do it!

The group of people who had just settled down immediately faced a problem, and it was a very difficult one.

When Di Yong was patrolling the camp, he caught a pair of wild mandarin ducks, and he immediately investigated them thoroughly, and found at least dozens of pairs......

"How can this be reasonable, the army is outside, the land of four wars, life and death, how can you be allowed to come nonsense!" Di Juma was really angry, among the education he received, the military regulations were the greatest, and his father was able to become famous in the Great Song Dynasty and not be defeated in a hundred battles, relying on orders and prohibitions.

"Kill, must kill!"

Di Yong's attitude is very tough.

"I said Di Fuma, can we discuss, when employing people, our soldiers will kill one less one!" Zhao Zongjing couldn't help but plead.

"Lord Wang, if you don't punish it severely! How can we explain to Khotan, a good woman, who has been ruined and innocent, how can she live? If we want to gain a foothold in the Western Regions, we need the support of the remnants of Khotan the most, and this is also what you explained! ”

Zhao Zongjing was speechless for a while, he had nothing to say, but he always felt that something was not quite right.

He was wandering when Zhao Zongyi suddenly came.

"What's that...... Lord Lu and Master Zhang have arrived! ”

"Oops, it's time for help!"

Zhao Zongjing immediately brought Zhang Dun and Lu Huiqing in, these two people were dusty and tired, and before they could take a breath, Zhao Zongjing couldn't help but tell the matter.

"Two gentlemen, can you give me an idea?"

Lu Huiqing was silent for a moment, suddenly stabbed Zhang Dun, and said: "I think Brother Zhihou is more experienced, see what he says!" ”

Zhang Dun's face was purple and red, and he roared angrily: "Can you not mention that matter!" Be careful that I break up with you! ”

What's the matter, it's worth breaking up?

Zhao Zongjing scratched his head, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

"I remembered, Erlang told me that you go to the Wa Kingdom...... Oops, I didn't think of that! Zhao Zongjing patted his ass and ran away.

……

"Lord Wang, please be merciful, don't punish them, even if you want to punish them, wait for them to give birth to the child in their womb, that is the seed of your Song people!"

A few old guys from Khotan knelt in a circle, and even Zhao Li and Yu Chiyan rushed over, and behind them, there were dozens of frightened and helpless women.

Zhao Zongjing looked at their appearance, grinned bitterly and said: "We may have some misunderstanding about this, Di Yuma's side, I think those soldiers have violated military regulations and want to cut off their heads!" ”

"Shenma? He's crazy! ”

A few old men blurted out, but they felt that it was inappropriate to talk about Da Song's concubine, so they hurriedly changed their words, "What the villains mean, yes, how can he do this?" That's a living boy, how can you kill it, if you must kill someone, kill us useless! ”

Zhao Zongjing hurriedly said: "Don't abide by military rules, bad people are innocent, this is a serious crime in the Great Song Dynasty!" ”

"What kind of crime is this?"

An old man named Yu Chihuan said angrily: "What innocence? Does it matter to be innocent and have a son? Without a son, there is nothing! Innocence is worth a few bucks! ”

On the one hand, the military regulations are like a mountain, and the national law is ruthless, and on the other hand, it is to borrow a kind of heart, and to continue the incense.

Zhao Zongjing found Di Yong and told him about the situation, Di Yuma was also dumbfounded, he found that between him and Khotan, separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, it was not a carriage on the road at all!

The difference is too great!

Di Yong was messy and had no idea.

"This kind of thing, we can only take a step back, we can't take the military regulations of the Great Song Dynasty to copy it, if you want to start a family, you must report it, and then the Ming media is marrying, and the field army is not allowed to marry casually. As for Khotan, there are also rules, the daughter-in-law of my Han family must abide by women's morals, and after getting married, she must behave in a proper manner, live with each other, and borrow this kind of thing, which must be eliminated! Lu Huiqing and Zhang Dun gave their plan.
