Early in the morning, Zhang Yue asked his soldiers to go into the back house to carry his luggage, loaded three or four cars, and sent Cheng Yachan and Qiu Xiang to the original house in Jincheng County first. He himself went to the barracks to stay for a few days, and after the handover, the soldiers of the sixth battalion also had to pass, and this large battalion had to be given to the Zhangwu army.

Taking advantage of a few days of free time, Zhang Yue sent people to find the original subordinates of the Jiedu Administration, a total of more than a dozen people, Zhangwu Jiedu marching Sima, judges, envoys, secretaries, etc., although they are all important positions, Zhang Yue is too lazy to meet, let Feng Qianhou arrange to hand over the defense of Yanzhou and the logistics affairs of the eighth battalion of the Zhangwu Army first.

And Xuan Chongwen and Hao Tianying led three battalions of soldiers to transport back the stolen goods that were dug up and hidden in Baiyu Mountain, only the green salt had more than 1,000 stones, about more than 100,000 catties, as well as miscellaneous goods such as money, grain, and silk. Zhang Yue asked Xuan Chongwen to go to Jincheng County to hide and sent someone to guard it. After the people from the DPRK and China leave, they will trade with Sha Weng, otherwise it will be difficult to say if they are discovered.

Soon, Xue Juzheng, Suo Wanjin and others really arrived, and Zhang Yue led Feng Qianhou and Li Chuyun to lead the two officials of Yanzhou out of the city for ten miles to greet them. A dozen officials and their retinue, as well as a large number of goods called rewards, which were actually used for trading, were loaded into seventy or eighty carts. Nearly 1,000 people came in a majestic manner, and after the greetings were completed, Zhang Yue led everyone to the roadside Shili Pavilion to rest with tea.

Suo Wanjin is also an old senior, he has experienced five dynasties from Liang to the fifth dynasty, he is about fifty years old, he looks relatively low-key in his behavior, and he doesn't ask about the recent situation in Yanzhou, but Zhang Yue still has to explain it first, so that he can have a bottom in his heart.

"At the beginning of the year, when Zhang came to Yanzhou, there were only less than 2,000 soldiers in the ten battalions of the town soldiers under the command of the Gao family, and they have now been restored to eight full battalions. Although the equipment is complete, it is still almost there. The armor workshop in Yanzhou was also cancelled before, so there was no inventory in the armament, and after Suo Dashuai took office, he still had to spend some effort in this regard. Zhang Yue let the soldiers serve tea and spoke first.

"That's good! The chapter inspection is really stormy, hard work! I heard that there were robbers who went deep into the state before, what happened? Suo Wanjin heard about it, but he knew that the official article would not be the actual situation.

"This is going to start with the Hengshan Qiang distributed in Yinsui and the two states, they are not very obedient to Li Yiyin in Xiazhou, and they have no sense of belonging, and this Hun Tian wolf is a typical one, and he would rather go to Baiyu Mountain and fall into the grass than surrender to Li Yiyin, but he secretly made some transactions with Li Yiyin, robbed the business roads of Yanqing Erzhou to survive, and it is said that he has fled to Taiyuan now."

Xue Juzheng was about forty years old, and when he heard this, he said: "No wonder this is the case, last month Li Yiyin sent people to Tokyo to pay tribute, requesting the establishment of a border city outside Luzi Pass, but His Majesty did not approve it on the grounds of border instability. Li Yiyin is a hidden danger in the northwest frontier, and everyone knows it, so it is still necessary to appease. And the Hetao horse in his hand is urgently needed by my dynasty, and I don't promise him, but I can talk about it. ”

"Li Yiyin has limited war horses in his hands, and he has always only paid tribute in exchange for supplies, so I am afraid it will be difficult to supply the military." Zhang Yue said with some confusion.

Xue Juzheng smiled meaningfully, stroked his beard and said indifferently: "Of course, it is said that there are good horses in Shuofang and Hexi, and I can't say that I want to go this time, and I will ask Zhang Patrol to send troops to escort it!" ”

"Oh? Is this what Your Majesty means? What does the will say? When Zhang Yue heard this, he immediately became interested.

Xue Juzheng was stunned and said with a wry smile: "This is not Zhang inspecting you, repeatedly mentioning the Hexi War Horse to the King of Jin, the King of Jin has been concerned about this, and has made suggestions to His Majesty several times, so he awarded me as the envoy of Hexi Xuanfu, and I will continue to travel west on the next day." ”

"Oh...... I see, that's an important thing, yes! Zhang Yue laughed when he heard this, he did tell Guo Rong, the king of Jin, the importance of Hexi war horses to the Central Plains.

It was a mid-June afternoon, and the sun was still like a blazing charcoal fire, scorching the heat on the earth. The officials on both sides went into the pavilion to rest in the shade, and the soldiers could only be under the sun, their iron armor was hot, and they were already screaming to remove their armor, and they were drinking water on the side of the road bare-chested.

"The sun is very hot, let's go into the city to rest for a while!" Seeing this, Zhang Yue invited.

"Good! If we don't leave, those sergeants will scold us! Xue Juzheng got up as he spoke, walked out of the pavilion first, and quickly climbed into his carriage.

The group of officials first went to the marshal's mansion in the city, and then went through the procedure to read out the edict of the Chinese book. First of all, Suo Wanjin gave Zhangwu the envoy of the festival, and Zhang Yue ordered his own soldiers to invite the festival marshal honor guard and the soldier seal letter, and officially handled the handover affairs.

Then there is Zhang Yue's own will, and sure enough, he is still abiding by his own duties, but the general Dingyuan on the fifth rank of the scattered rank of Jinzheng is considered to have been promoted by two levels, and then promoted to one level is General Mingwei from the fourth grade, and he can lead the state assassin history. It can be seen that the emperor still controls the reward very strictly.

Then it was the restoration of the Yanzhou Observation and Disposal Office, and Zhang Yue recommended Yan'an County to order Qin Mingshan to be the envoy; Jincheng County ordered Bian Conghan to be the observer judge; Yao Guangchun, the chief secretary of Jincheng County, is the secretary; Zhang Jingzhen, the chief secretary of Yan'an County, is the official who pushes the officials, and these candidates should be approved.

Moreover, the DPRK and the Central Committee did not appoint an observer envoy and a deputy envoy, and Qin Ming was in charge of the financial and taxation affairs, and the state government was responsible for the government affairs. There are also some who fill the vacancies, and when the time comes, they will go to the counties to take over the appointments, and the candidates who will take office in the future will be replaced.

After the official business was handled, Chen Jia, the commander of the personal soldiers, came over to greet him, and Zhang Yue asked him to find Suo Wanjin's personal soldiers to command the handover of the defense of the Marshal's Mansion. Let Li Chuyun accompany Suo Wanjin to take a look around, and he himself, Feng Qianhou and Li Duoshou led Xue Juzheng to the pavilion to live temporarily.

"Quan Zhizhou has not been in the state for a long time, but there are a lot of things, this Shuai Mansion is dilapidated, and it has not had time to repair it, Doctor Xue forgive me! If there is any shortage or inadequate care, you can send someone to me. "All the entourage should be arranged, Zhang Yue said goodbye. Xue Ju is a doctor in the middle of the five products, so Zhang Yue is called a doctor.

"It's okay! You and I are at the same level, I should also call you Zhang Dingyuan, and I will go to Lingzhou after a few days of rest here, and I don't have to spend money. This time, I am walking along the road to announce the decree, Dong Guangmai, the deacon of the Imperial City Division, accompanied him, and only brought a commander to the Sima army in front of the palace, it is not safe to go to Hexi on the road, Zhang Dingyuan, how many soldiers can you send? ”

"How about one commanding the horse army and the other commanding the infantry army?" Zhang Yue thought about it and already had a candidate in his heart.

Let Xuan Chongwen take Hao Tianying to go, Zhang Quanxu or Liu Xiansheng, choose one person to accompany the goods, the guards and merchants are secondary, and it is a big deal to spy on the distribution of the forces in each Hexi and the Tibetan tribe, and draw a military map.

"Good! When he resigned in Tokyo, His Royal Highness King Jin said that you are vigorous and resolute, and you are fast-talking, and this is indeed the case! Xue Juzheng laughed.

If it is okay to only go to Shuofang, Feng Jiye is still reliable, but Liangzhou in Hexi is lonely, and it is definitely dangerous to cross the territory of Hexi Party and Qingtangqiang on the road, and Liangzhou is not safe.

Last year, Hexi Jiedu turned Jiashi and asked the DPRK to send generals and officials to Hexi, and Wang Jun recommended Shen Shihou. But this person's ability is not good, not only is it difficult to resist Zhubo, but also a large number of Tubo remnants of the Liugu Department Qiang Chief as the state assassin history, town generals, etc., this is simply to lure wolves into the room, and the outside is a group of wolves peeping.

And Xue Ju is a civil official, he doesn't look like a long-sleeved person who is good at dancing, and his wit may be average, if something happens, the person who comes to the letter can't do it, and the one who comes to the martial arts, the thousands of soldiers are not enough to fill it. Of course, Zhang Yue thought of this, but he had more far-reaching considerations, so he didn't care.

The Shuai Mansion let him out, Zhang Yue could only go back to the barracks to live, and as soon as he went out, Feng Qianhou suddenly said: "Go to Hexi!" Interesting! I'd like to go and see it! ”

"It's not right for you to go, right? There's no one around me anymore! Zhang Yue didn't approve of it, in fact, he wanted to go by himself, but it was too troublesome to ask the court for instructions.

"Li Chuyun is here, this one is not bad......" Feng Qianhou smiled and looked at Li Duoshou and said.
