Chapter 257
After seeing it, Baili Wuji thought that Zhu Pengliang and his two merchants were a little too exaggerated, but the current scene made Baili Wuji stunned and couldn't help but burst into tears.
On the road along the street, the Han people knelt on the ground densely, worshipping the new army and Baili Wuji. These people still don't know that the emperor of the Ming Kingdom is in front of them, and if they do, I'm afraid this scene will be even more fanatical.
The joy of escaping hell cannot ......be described in words.
At this moment, for Baili Wuji and the soldiers of the New Army, even for the sake of these suffering Han people, no amount of sacrifice is worth it.
After entering the city, Baili Wuji did not deprive Jiao Guluo of his property, nor did he occupy his mansion.
I just found another house in the city as a temporary residence.
This makes Kakuro grateful, in Kakuro's heart, the winner is the king and the loser Kou, if he is replaced, then any property of the loser will belong to himself, even the other party's wife and children.
Baili Wuji explained the regulations of the Ming Kingdom to Jiaoguoluo, appointed him as the defense envoy of the Qingtang Dynasty, and governed the four prefectures of Shan, Huang, Lan, and He, and promised to wait for Wuji to return to Jinling Mansion after he returned to Jinling Mansion, and awarded him the rank of general of Zhengsanpin Zhaoyong, which was accepted by Jiaoguoluo.
Jiao Guluo then high-fived Baili Wuji and swore allegiance.
After that, Jiao Wuji confessed to Baili Wuji the fact that he had sent people to ask for help from the Liao army and the obstruction army in the direction of Weizhou and Lingzhou.
Baili Wuji didn't care, it was no secret that the four states of Shan, Huang, Lan and He were surrendered to the Ming Kingdom.
Liao and Zhu Bu knew about it sooner or later.
But if the Liao army and the Bu army heard the news and came west, then the four prefectures of Shan, Huang, Lan, and Hezhou would probably change hands again.
The plan of the day. The only way to get in touch with the Ming and Zhou armies on the one hand and actively defend them in the four states on the other hand.
But in Baili Wuji's heart, there is still a force that needs to be contacted.
After several days of purging. The city of Shanzhou was already peaceful, and there was no chaos in the transition of power, and thanks to the cooperation of Jiaoguoluo, all kinds of people in the city, such as Han, Uighur, Tibetan, and Dangxiang, began to try to coexist peacefully.
On this day, Baili Wuji gathered everyone and decided on the strategy of the Anti-Japanese War, if the Liao and Bu armies came west. The Ming army will set up the first wave of defense in Huangzhou and the second wave in Shanzhou.
Ordered Jiaoguoluo's reliable henchmen to deliver news of their presence in Shanzhou and Huangzhou to Ming and Tuesday, and chose Jiaoguoluo's henchmen to deliver the news. It is because the Liao and Obstruction armies will not block the comings and goings of the people of Tibet.
Although the new army lacked guns and ammunition, the mines carried by each soldier had never been used in this battle, and 30,000 or 40,000 people from Huang, Lan, and Hezhou were moved to Shanzhou for temporary resettlement.
The wars of the nomads tend to retreat without a fight as long as they are delayed. In addition to the small amount of grain supply in the early stage. In the middle and later periods, it completely relied on plundering the people in the battlefield and replenishing by beating grass valleys.
However, Huangzhou is by no means the place of decisive battle envisaged by Baili Wuji, and if the Liao and Bu armies come to attack, the 6,000 new troops and the remnants of more than 1,000 Jiaoluo who lack ammunition will not be able to stop the enemy's strong attack in any way.
The biggest purpose of Baili Wuji's defense in Huangzhou is to gain time, to effectively kill the Liao and Bubu armies to the greatest extent, and at the same time to buy time for Baili Wuji to contact the Guiyi army in the northwest of Shanzhou to jointly resist the enemy.
Baili Wuji planned to take Zheng En and his 300 cavalry to Gua and Sha Erzhou to negotiate with the Guiyi army.
Before leaving, Baili Wuji strictly ordered Guo Tingwei, Zheng Yanhua, and Zhou Baozhong not to fight hard with the enemy in Huangzhou. If nothing can be done, retreat westward to Shanzhou to hold on and wait for reinforcements.
Lingjiaoluo conscripted the Han people in the land of the four states to immediately retrain. As a reserve force, the city defense was reinforced at the same time.
Jiaoguo Luo has now surrendered, naturally no longer worried about the loyalty of the Han people, he began to relax, and received the order to carry out the Han people recruitment, for Jiao Luo, with his only four states can not fight against any of the Liao, Zhubu, Tubo Luo kings, in the troubled times to protect themselves, only to take refuge in one of them, this war with the Ming and Zhou, in fact, is also for this purpose.
Now that he is attached to the Ming Kingdom, he may have really found the Ming Lord, and he may no longer need to keep changing his master. Kakuro said secretly in his heart.
The battle with Baili Wuji confirmed the reason for the annihilation of his 30,000 main cavalry, this army is invincible, at least for now, and for the Ming Kingdom, from the mouths of the traders, he already knows the strength of the Ming Kingdom.
Baili Wuji threw the new army in Huangzhou, and he took more than 300 horsemen from Zheng En's department to embark on the road west to return to the righteous army.
In order to save time, more than 300 people carried three war horses each, in order to rest the horses and gallop all the way to the west.
Originally, Baili Wuji did not have such a bold whim, and went west to Guasha Erzhou on a whim, but the arrangement for Zhu Pengliang and Jiang Jiliang to smuggle ordnance to the Guiyi Army more than a year ago has laid the foundation for today's westward journey.
Zhu Pengliang and Jiang Jiliang sent news that the Guiyi army was willing to annex, but the reason why it could not be implemented was that there was a gap between the Ganzhou Uighurs.
And this time, Baili Wuji is going westward, which is to contact the Guiyi Army to go east and open up this blocked passage with the Shanzhou New Army.
In fact, Baili Wuji did not know that the main force of the Ganzhou Uighurs had already been completely annihilated by Han Jixun, and they had no power to attack, and it was difficult to even protect themselves.
But even if Baili Wuji could know, he did not dare to send troops to recover, and the available military strength in the two prefectures of Shanzhou and Huang only added up to more than 7,000 people.
The Guiyi Army, established by Zhang Yichao, the rank of the Tang Dynasty, has always been governed by Shazhou.
In 799, Zhang Yichao was born in Shazhou (now Dunhuang) after the fall of Hexi.
Zhang's generation is the richest man in Shazhou, in fact, he is a local powerful faction.
But the prominent family status did not bring peace to the Zhang family.
Unlike the Khitan, Jurchen and other nomadic regimes, the Tibetan regime did not consider uniting and co-opting the local Han wealthy and powerful families in order to maintain its rule, let alone let them participate in politics.
Therefore, the local large landowners also had to endure the deception and ravages of the Tibetan aristocracy.
Zhang Yichao has been exposed to the brutal rule of Tibet since he was a child, and he is fascinated by the homeland of the Tang Dynasty, and is determined to expel the invaders and return to the motherland.
In order to realize his ambition, he studied the art of war and martial arts from an early age.
Using his own family property as military funds, he secretly recruited and trained rebels, and at the same time continued to accept exiles who rebelled against the Tibetan uprising and was suppressed. Gather strength and wait for the opportunity to move.
His chance has finally arrived.
After the Anshi Rebellion, Tubo took advantage of the chaos to capture Hexi and Longyou. In the second year of Jianzhong, Shazhou fell into Tibet. (To be continued......)
