September of the third year of the Heavenly Grant.

It's been three years since Gao Tian returned to the Northwest.

Back then, Gao Tian returned to the northwest with Shangguan Wan'er, who was appointed as the supervision envoy, and Zhuge Zheng, who was appointed as the inspection envoy. Of course, the road was not so calm. Fortunately, there were 3,000 guards, and later Gao Tian personally rushed into battle and crushed an army of 10,000 'bandits', which made those who were secretly forced to give up planning against Gao Tian. Later, with the help of people in the summer, Gao Tian and his party returned to the northwest smoothly.

After returning to the Northwest, Gao Tian handed over all the government affairs of the Northwest to Shangguan Wan'er and the female officials under her command in Shangguan Wan'er's surprised expression. For Gao Tian's behavior, it was rumored in the world at that time, and they secretly laughed at Gao Tian.

Facing Gao Tian's trusting gaze, Shangguan Wan'er's already dead heart beat again, and she even cried bitterly on the spot. It was also at that time that Gao Tian knew that he had completely won Shangguan Wan'er's heart.

In fact, just as Gao Tian predicted, three years have passed, and the government affairs and finances of the northwest have not collapsed, but have flourished and improved more and more. The Northwest now is a different from the Northwest three years ago. Not only has the population increased a lot, but it has also become more vibrant, and it is called the south of the Yangtze River.

For this reason, Wu Zetian didn't know how many teacups were broken, and how many forces came to dig the foot of the wall, but Shangguan Wan'er didn't move at all.

In addition to Shangguan Wan'er and the female officials under her command, the people from the Shenhou Mansion also helped Gao Tian a lot.

Zhuge Zheng and I were not ready to go out of the mountain, but under the pleading of Jiao Niang and ruthlessly, I still went out of the mountain. He not only helped Gao Tian formulate the order in the northwest region, but also helped Gao Tian train a large number of qualified fast catchers, reducing the problem of rough catchers from local military backgrounds.

Iron Hand was invited by Gao Tian to the Ordnance Department to study all kinds of ordnance, even including the rudiments of the ordnance of the monk's army, and he gained a lot. Chase is responsible for teaching the spies in the army, and by the way, sometimes help the ruthlessly managed Bloody Guards to make some extra money. Otherwise, the good wine developed by the northwest is too expensive, and his little money is not enough at all.

As for Ruthlessness, Gao Tian had already handed over the Bloody Guards to her, so that Summer could free up her hands to do something more important. For example, training the army, delving into formations, and studying the mysteries of the monk's army.

Now, a new Guards has taken shape, and everyone has the combat effectiveness of the third layer after tomorrow. Although it is not high, it has already begun to take shape as a monk army. This point was still before those Heavenly Guards in the High Heaven Half-Plane World.

In addition, Ji Yaohua and other people also returned to the northwest, including Ji Yaohua himself. Even if she is infatuated with cold-bloodedness, her identity is exposed, and she is no longer suitable to stay in Shendu.

Gao Tian saw her lifeless appearance, and simply handed her over to Ruthless, so that Ruthless could be trained. Three years have passed, but Ji Yaohua has recovered and become a general under the ruthless army, and has made a lot of contributions to the Bloody Guard.

It is worth mentioning that Iron Hand and Butterfly got married, and it was a wedding organized by Gao Tian for them. Looking at the happy smiles of the iron hand and the butterfly, not only Ji Yaohua began to throw herself into the northwest with all her body and mind, but even Zhuge Zheng and I began to eliminate the thought of returning to the divine capital.

Today's northwest has begun to march towards the Hohe grassland three years ago. After entering the Hohe grassland, there must be a fort within three miles. The forts are connected so that the twenty-four forts are enclosed in a circle, forming a dense protective circle. Outside the fort, there are large areas of farmland that have been reclaimed, creating the reputation of 'Saiwai Jiangnan'.

It was with the financial support of An Jia that the northwest was able to launch a counteroffensive towards the Hohe grassland. And, in the summer, he made a statement to the heavens and issued a killing order.

Kill Hu Ling: Hu people are divided into old and weak and strong men. The old and weak, three heads are worth one strong and young, and the Han people are not counted, and the horses are seized and brought back to be regarded as a strong man, and they are purchased. If you kill a person, you can be rewarded with one stone of grain or one tael of silver by virtue of your head. If you kill five people, you can enter the Shura army, or you can be rewarded with five taels of silver. If you kill ten people, you can be awarded the position of captain, or you can be rewarded with ten taels of silver. If thirty people are killed, they may be awarded the Order of Warriors, and they shall be exempted from forced service, or they shall be rewarded with fifty taels of silver.

As for higher rewards, they are not easy to obtain, and the rewards are not small, even with official positions and ranks.

It is precisely because of this, coupled with the tyrannical behavior of the nomads in the Hohe grassland, that many warriors and high-rollers in the Central Plains rushed to the northwest and slaughtered a large number of nomads on the Hohe grassland.

After three years of bloodletting, the nomads on the Hohe grassland are already dying, waiting for the high heavens to launch a final offensive. also took advantage of this opportunity to prepare an elite army of 200,000, including the more elite 80,000 Shura Army and the 120,000 Northwest Army.

Yes, the original 100,000 Shura army has been simply pulled, and there are only 80,000 now, which does not increase but decreases. It is not only to eliminate the vigilance of the enemy, but also to further improve the quality of the Shura army. The current 80,000 Shura army is enough to withstand the 150,000 old Shura army three years ago. Among them, it is not only the excellence of personnel, but also the excellence of equipment.

………………

Gao Tian pushed ruthlessly, and Shangguan Wan'er was beside him, and the three of them walked in the field together. The guards around him were all dressed in civilian clothes, forming a large circle, firmly guarding Gao Tian, Ruthless and Shangguan Wan'er, the three supreme powers in the northwest.

Gao Tian knows that he is ruthless, has a cold personality, is not good at words, and is very desperate at work. Therefore, he will take Ruthless out for a walk every day, so as not to make Ruthless autism more serious, and also to relax as a proper relaxation for the two of them.

Ruthless naturally knows this, although his face is still light, but his heart is sweet. For Gao Tian's intimate action, not only was he emotionally moved, but Jiao Niang appreciated it, and even Shangguan Wan'er was very envious.

I don't know when, Shangguan Wan'er also joined in, and every evening, the three of them would go out together to walk around and relax.

At this time, it was the autumn harvest, and some of the newly cut fields were out of the land, and some were still golden and heavy. Gao Tian looked at the old high grain piles in his field of vision, and the patches of brilliant golden, and his heart was infinitely proud.

Today's Northwest has initially completed self-sufficiency. Although the other three families began to subconsciously control the grain into the northwest. However, with the current grain reserves in the northwest, plus today's harvest, it is enough to supply the northwest army for more than half a year's campaign.

At this time, it is not far from completely solving the Hohe grassland.
