Of course, this is also because Li Tai took the initiative to take on some heavy tasks, and like the other parties involved in the war, they don't have to be as busy as him.

Yang Zhong, the most chic of them, met after the battle to participate in the distribution of the spoils, and received a part of the grain and grass materials from Yu Wengui, when he led the men and horses along the road to return lightly, and the other materials assigned to him will be transported into the state by Xia Zhou.

】

Although there are many people in Yuwengui's department, and the personnel involved are also quite cumbersome, it should have been a relatively busy one. But he just ordered the chiefs of the various departments under his command to discuss the distribution plan, and then distributed the prisoners of men and horses to Xiazhou to the departments in proportion, and the departments returned the money, food and materials, and then Yu Wengui handed them over to the other departments of the coalition army, and the matter in Xiazhou was basically over.

Of course, it seems to be a relatively simple set of processes, which is also backed by the prestige accumulated by Yu Wengui and even his entire family era living in Xiazhou, otherwise these wealthy chiefs will argue more and less, and they may not be able to argue with a result in a few months, and even directly fight each other.

Dongxia Prefecture was seriously damaged in the course of the war, and almost all the local Jihu tribes that the thieves foresaw were killed, and even Li Mu, the assassin, was besieged in the state city for many days.

It stands to reason that there should be a lot of various bereavement and aftermath work in Dongxia Prefecture, but Li Mu is very idle, and few chiefs Hu enter the mansion to ask for justice, and he will not take the initiative to visit the township.

The tribes were completely unaware of the government's responsibility to provide post-disaster relief and restore production, and Li Mu did not intend to use this to strengthen the authority of the government and go deep into the masses, and he did not care about the lives of these people.

This is a typical lazy government that neglects its duties, but there is another saying in the history books, that is, "the government is quiet, and the people cherish it". But it can't be said that his person is a corrupt official, he is a martial artist, and he is fortunate to have a lot of achievements in this troubled era, but he really lacks the talent and experience of the ruling party.

Li Tai couldn't do nothing and have no quarrel with the world, and the big plan in his mind urged him to seize all the opportunities that could be used.

After several battles, the Lishi Hu people who were captured and surrendered voluntarily were gathered again, and a total of more than 13,000 people were obtained, of which the old and weak women and children accounted for the majority, although it was still a relatively considerable Hu force, but compared with the tens of thousands of horses and horses of Yin Shi who crossed the river, the power was sharply reduced.

It can be seen that even if the Western Wei Bafu does not focus on the northern Shaanxi region, this realm is by no means a place where anyone can indulge in galloping and have no defenses.

Li Tai planned to keep this part of Lishihu, and some of the captives were still exchanged from other captives, giving up the distribution of other spoils, in exchange for a Jihu tribe of tens of thousands of people under his complete control, whether this transaction was a loss or a profit, still needs to be tested by time.

The sharp reduction in his own strength greatly consumed the fierce spirit of these Li Shihu, coupled with the cooperation of Liu Kuzhen and this guy as much as he could, Li Tai's control of this Hu was quite effective, and he led them to settle near Wei Pingcheng in Dongxia Prefecture without any waves.

It is already the depths of winter, and there is little output in the fields, and tens of thousands of people eating horses and chewing are also a huge consumption.

Li Tai was originally complacent about the reimbursement of the withered Yin Liu clan and Xiazhou Yuwengui for the consumption of this battle, but after taking in this Lishi Hu, it was not enough to fill in all the reimbursement materials received from Xiazhou.

Although the surrounding areas of Weiping County are not badly endowed, if they want to carry out large-scale production, they will at least get the spring of next year, and Li Tai is not a savior who liberates the poor people of Jihu, and he saves them and provides basic food and clothing, of course, he also needs to be reciprocated.

Therefore, after entering the country, he first organized Ding Zhuang to patrol and survey along the surrounding area, and initially included the area of more than 100 miles upstream and downstream of this section of luxury water into the scope of reclamation, and built some fort dock walls in some steep places for defense.

It is not enough to completely exploit and utilize this realm by leaving the stone and the Huzhong alone. And despite Liu Kuzhen's cooperation and control, Li Tai's ears and eyes reported that these people who left Shihu and returned to their hometowns were still very stubborn, and they didn't want to live here for a long time.

At present, they are only trapped in the harsh living environment and the tragic war they have just experienced, and these people have no choice but to gather together and rely on each other, if this problem is not taken seriously, then the spring of the next year will be rich in resources, and these Hu people will definitely flee in large numbers.

Therefore, Li Tai also put away his pity, and first squeezed out the energy of these Lishi Hu captives as much as possible this winter, to create a foundation for the cultivation of the surrounding area of Wei Pingcheng, and then recruited the more trustworthy Hu Bu to actually operate.

Li Tai stayed in Weiping City for a while, and after watching the work of the Shihu people gradually get on track, he left a group of men and horses to garrison here, and he himself returned to Heishui Fangcheng in the south.

Outside the city of Heishui Fang, there was already a group of people waiting here, and seeing Li Tai leading his troops to arrive, they all rushed to meet him, either called the lord or Ah Lang, and there were also those who were directly commensurate with their official positions.

"Is Fangcheng harassed deeply?"

Li Tai turned over and dismounted, and saw the slight traces of destruction and the additional fortifications on the city wall, so he looked at Zhu Meng, the defense master, and asked.

"When Lord Lang led his troops to pursue and suppress the thief army in the north, several thieves in the lower reaches of Heishui gathered to disturb again, and the servants immediately organized men and horses to resist and counterattack, and all the attacks were repulsed, remembering that Lord Lang ordered to hold the city and not attack."

Zhu Meng hurriedly replied with his hands crossed his hands, and said that they, the old subordinates of He Batsheng, had long regarded Li Tai as the new lord, and hoped that Li Tai could lead them to avenge the old lord's gazette, so they were also loyal and obedient to Li Tai.

The Heishui Hu in the lower reaches of the black water is the target of Li Tai's focus on prevention and control this year, but he didn't expect that after the winter, the transit dragon Lishihu appeared again, but the infestation of the Heishui Hu did not disappear because of this, and it still happened as predicted before.

Due to the full preparation before, and Zhu Meng, a veteran general, was here, he still didn't let these domestic miscellaneous people succeed in the end. But it is difficult to kill them all, the Iron Cavalry can destroy a country, but if they are allowed to accurately catch a rabbit in the vast forest field, I am afraid that it will be in vain.

Therefore, the survival mode of Jihu in this realm is to first develop obscenely, wait until the power grows and then break out in a wave, and then be conscripted and suppressed, and then flee and continue to develop obscenely.

After telling the story of the war here, Zhu Meng also reminded him of the merits of the withered Liu clan for helping to fight here.

Liu Ping, the son of Liu Kang, the patriarch of the Liu clan, led his troops to reinforce here, and when they entered the city and sat down with each other, Li Tai first expressed his gratitude to his people, and then ordered someone to put a map directly in front of Liu Ping.

"May I ask the Grand Duke, what does this mean?"

Liu Ping looked at the somewhat unfamiliar map, and he was at a loss.

"Here's the thing......"

Li Tai smiled and told his plan, hoping that the Liu clan could send his clan to the Luyan Water Valley to operate and fortify, and become the northern outpost of the three-defense city system.

After listening to this plan, Liu Ping's expression was also uncertain, both happy and worried, and he didn't know how to respond for a while.

As a local chieftain, of course, he hopes that the bigger the territory, the better, and the broader the territory means the broader the living space. But the extravagant water is hundreds of thousands of miles away from their current clan land, and they are not familiar with the geography of the mountains and rivers, and the human style, and it is difficult to say whether they can gain a foothold after the migration.

Li Tai knew that the withered Liu clan was not a poor and broken beard, and this choice was also very difficult for them.

He needs a convincing and enterprising Hu Bu to act as his eyes and ears to the north, so he does not intend to use forceful means to persecute, only briefly analyze the pros and cons, if the Liu family is still guarding his homeland and refuses to migrate, although the current cooperation is still maintained, there will be no further cooperation and development in the future.

"This is indeed a major matter related to the rise and fall of the clan, and there is no need to rush to decide, you can go to the tribe to discuss with the patriarchs and elders first, and you can investigate on the spot......"

Before Li Tai finished speaking, Liu Ping avoided the table, walked in front of Li Tai's seat, knelt on the ground with a plop and said: "The matter is indeed not small, but there is no need to hesitate for a long time. Although the last general did not know the Metropolitan Governor from the bottom of his heart, he knew that the Metropolitan Governor would never point out a narrow road, since his mind and vision were not as broad and grand as the Metropolitan Governor, he would never be wrong to obey orders! The last general should respond to this matter on behalf of the clan, and thank the Metropolitan Governor for his kind guidance! ”

Li Tai's dealings with the withered Yin Liu clan mainly negotiated with the patriarch Liu Kang, and he was also deeply impressed by Liu Chang'an, who had asked to see him before, but he was a little unfamiliar with this eldest son Liu Ping, but he didn't expect him to be so decisive, and he couldn't help but be a little impressed.

If you hope that this new defensive city in the north will be put into construction and production at the beginning of spring next year, the sooner the withered Yin Liu clan will naturally migrate, the better, Li Tai was still worried about whether his department would be able to handle this matter, but after Liu Ping said this, the doubts in his heart were also dispelled, and he stood up from the seat and picked Liu Ping up, patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "A man of righteousness, never take it lightly!" As long as the northern defense city is built considerably, I will ask you for a county guard! ”

"Thank you, Grand Duke!"

After Liu Ping heard this, he couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised, because he offended the powerful and powerful, and it was very difficult for their clan to make repeated attempts to return to righteousness, even if they spent a huge amount of 500,000 horses of silk before, they did not get such a conclusive promise from Li Tai, but now they just expressed their decisiveness, but the expected return was amazing, so he hurriedly bowed again: "But if you can follow the command of the Governor of the capital, the last general will not be able to reach the official rank, before and after the saddle, the minions charge, and never dare to resign!" ”
