Chapter 0360: Liangzhou Xing
"The four sides of Liangzhou are sand haohao, and no one in the Han family has opened the old road. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Biantou Prefecture and County are full of soldiers, and the general will not build a defensive autumn city. Thousands of miles of people are gone, and Xijing ...... every year"
The third year of the Great Zhou Xiande, the third day of the third month of March, the Shangsi Festival. According to legend, this day is the birthday of the Yellow Emperor, and according to traditional festival customs, it is the day of purification, that is, the day of spring bathing. It is advisable to go to the waterside to worship and feast, and go to the suburbs to travel in spring.
However, for the warriors, if they win battles every day, it is every day for the New Year, festivals? Victory Day is the best and most glorious holiday!
On this morning, Zhang Yue led the army on the road to Liangzhou in the north, looking at the countryside barren from afar, full of withered yellow grassland, walking for a long time without seeing a village, can't help but feel ups and downs, sighed with emotion, and chanted the Yuefu poem built by Wang Jian in the Tang Dynasty.
It's not the first time he came to Liangzhou, but in the third year of Guangshun, he came to perform the mission as a guest general. And this time, he came as the master and was about to enter Liangzhou, which felt completely different and of far-reaching significance. Because after the battle three days ago, Liangzhou was truly returned to the Central Plains.
In the past three days, Zhang Yue led his troops back to Changzhou City, reported the victory to Tokyo, and reported the military achievements of the commanders of the various armies, and asked the DPRK and China to send officials. At the same time, various departments were assigned to clean up the battlefield, and the main harvest of the booty was more than 10,000 war horses. The rest were all tattered armor and weapons, among which there were hundreds of Qingtang armors that aroused Zhang Yue's interest, so he naturally took them away.
The war horses that Su Lun Abo grabbed on the battlefield were basically returned to them, and then distributed them with Shen Nianban, Cui Huxin, Wang Tinghan, Hou Zhang, Li Shiwen and others, all ranging from one to two thousand, and the dilapidated weapons and equipment were also distributed, which was considered a great joy. Gao Changhai was left to garrison Changzhou, take care of the wounded soldiers, transfer grain and grass to supply military supplies, and prepare for a series of affairs in the aftermath.
There are also 7,000 cavalry under the command of the Uighur prince who need to be temporarily supplied, because before that, it was borne by Zhe Gyash, and now he is leading his troops, which can be regarded as a friendly army. Regardless of the previous purpose, the prince did not go to war, and Zhang Yue planned to send back the Uighur soldiers at this stage, and how to deal with the relationship with the Uighurs after that was a matter for the court.
One hundred and twenty miles from Changzhou to Guzang, one day can not arrive, and in the evening of the same day, he camped in Wenche Town. The camp was originally left by Zhe Jiashi, and Zhang Yue sent Su Lun Abo, Shen Nianban, Wang Tinghan, Cui Huxin and others to receive the preparations two days in advance, and the army was directly stationed as soon as it arrived, which was very convenient.
However, only Wang Tinghan was greeted by the camp, Shen Nianban, Su Lun Abo and others first rushed back to Liangzhou City to take over the city defense, and appease the people in the city, so that Hou Zhang, the legitimate Hexi Jiedu envoy, could enter the city, and from then on he was really in power and was in charge of the military and political affairs.
However, the war is not over, on the day of February 30 of the war, Hao Tianying, Xue Keyan, and Wang Tingxun led three or four thousand horsemen to chase after Zhegezhi, but they were thrown off overnight in the Chishui Military City, and then chased to the state to govern Guzang, seeing that the city gate was closed, the two stepped forward to show off their might and shouted, and the city gate was actually opened.
I had guessed that the defense of the state city was empty, but I didn't dare to enter it easily, the city was basically full of Tibetan people, there were few Han people, and there would be trouble if the people were not attached, so Hao Tianying asked Xue Keyan to take three hundred horsemen into the city, asked for some grain and grass supplies, camped outside the west city gate, chased to Jialin Prefecture on the second day of the first month of March, and sent back the express in the evening of this day.
The middle and lower-level officers led the troops to the camp, the senior generals were promoted to discuss the matter, and Zhang Yue sat on the side. Hou Zhang sat in the center and sat in charge, and then he spoke: "Everyone has read Hao Tianying's military report, and if you have any suggestions, you can speak enthusiastically!" ”
Everyone didn't speak, they all turned their heads to look at Zhang Yue, and seeing that he didn't mean to speak, they looked at Xuan Chongwen again. In this battle, Xuan Chongwen did not rush the opportunity to make any great achievements, but since the departure of more than 20,000 troops in the Western Expedition, Hou Zhang and Zhang Yue, the two marshals, only opened their mouths to give orders, and various tedious and meticulous affairs before and after the war have always been presided over by Xuan Chongwen, and his ability has gradually been recognized by everyone, including Shuofang Li Shiwen and others.
"Two festival marshals!" Xuan Chongwen stood up and bowed his hand and said: "According to Hao Tianying's military report, although the Zhe Ge branch raised a white flag and claimed that he was willing to surrender, he continued to detain more than 10,000 soldiers from the Six Valleys such as Shen Banruo and Shen Jialan, and he just wanted to bargain with him as a hostage. Don't be surrendered at this time! ”
What Deputy Xuan's group practice said is very true, and Li also agrees very much! When the march continues! Li Shiwen also nodded and agreed.
Hou Zhang looked at Zhang Yue, and when he saw him nodding, he smiled and said, "That's good!" The tone has set! In this battle, our army also suffered more than 5,000 casualties and stayed in Changzhou, and now there are still 15,000 people including Hao Tianying and Xue Keyan's horse army on the front line. ”
"Get on the map!" Zhang Yue waved his hand, and Li Duoshou, the secretary of Jiedu, took a military official and lifted out a very clear and clear military map of Hexi on a wooden frame.
Zhang Yue stepped forward and picked up a wooden pole, a little bit in Liangzhou City, rowed along the Macheng River to the Xiutu Military City, and then went north to Mingweishu and Wu'anshu, and finally drew a circle in the area of Baitinghai, turned his head to face the generals and said loudly: "This is the north of Liangzhou on both sides of the Yimacheng River to Baitinghai, and the Zhe Kui clan should have a small part of the population and troops to garrison, and a thousand horsemen can be determined." Then there is Jialin Prefecture in the northwest of the state of governance, Tianbao County in Fanzhou in the northwest of 90 miles, Jiaocheng Military City in the east of Yanzhi Mountain, and Dadou Military City. ”
"This is our next task, after consultation with General Zhang, it was decided to rebuild the Hexi Jiedu from now on, and the grassland in the area from Pipa Mountain in the southeast of the state to the Tonggu Military City under the snow mountain in the southwest of the state will be assigned to the Liugu Department, and all the more people will be eliminated after the war. The Tonggu Army and the Wucheng Army are now given two horse army titles, which are included in the town army posts, and if there is a war, they must be conscripted.
Cui Huxin is now the commander of the Tonggu Army, and Pan Rogler is the deputy; Shen Nianru is the commander of the Wucheng army, and he is careful to deputy; Su Lun Ah Bo is the commander of the Baiting Army, and Shen Panruo is the deputy; In these three armies, there are still shortages of military personnel such as Yu Hou, commanders and envoys, and other official positions, which will be filled after the war, and the existing personnel and horses in your hands will be selected to fill in the elite, and each army will leave two battalions for the Han army. ”
"What? That's mean, isn't it? Who will bring down these places in Changzhou and Jialin Prefecture? When Shen Nian heard this, he immediately asked with great dissatisfaction. Although he will be a full-time military envoy from now on, he is not all his own people, and it is obvious that he does not trust himself.
"How many people does Changju have, and does it need to be made a state? After the war, it was re-established as a county, and the court sent officials to take office, which is for the sake of your long-term plan. Zhang Yue reminded Shen Nianru meaningfully, otherwise, he still wanted to ask for land.
Shen Nianlike looked at Zhang Yue, his face was unhappy, but it was not easy to say anything, his daughter Shen Xuelian had become one of Zhang Yue's concubines, and she could be regarded as an old father-in-law, but she had no official name, and it was not easy to call each other Weng's son-in-law when they met, most of the time she just nodded and smiled to express some cordial kindness.
Hou Zhang looked a little funny, nodded and said: "Then then again, let's talk about the Zhe Clan, early tomorrow morning, Su Lun Ah Bo can go north to Baitinghai to take over the defense, and temporarily stand by." A certain and General Zhang first entered the state city to take over the defense and inspection, and resumed the operation of the government as soon as possible. He was escorted back to Ganzhou by the Xuan Deputy Tuanlian, and the matter of the Zhe Kui clan was resolved by the way. In order to prevent the continuation of the war, it is better to bring the baggage with you. (To be continued.) )
