Luoyang.

After Tang Yong lost the military affairs of the unified army, he was busy on the south bank of the Yellow River every day, leading hundreds of laborers to be busy with shipbuilding.

His mind is to build him three or five ships as soon as possible according to the existing ships of Qi State, and when he has a ship, he will hand over the matter to Zu Wenyuan, who is not doing his job.

As a result, within a few days, his wife Duan, and his only son, Tang Jian, led more than 30 relatives to follow the forbidden army that withdrew to Chang'an in the west of Wuyang, and finally met Tang Yong in Luoyang when they passed through Luoyang.

Tang Yong was also shocked that his nameless self could bring such a thrilling danger to his cloth-clothed relatives!

If it weren't for Yuwen Shihong...... More than 30 of his relatives, plus his wife Duan and his only son, were about to be buried in the Yellow River.

After being afraid, Tang Yong gritted his teeth even more hateful at Qi Ting's mediocrity!

At the same time, I am more determined in my heart, and I must hurry up and build the ship!

Let the mediocre Qi Ting, after losing people's hearts! The price deserved!

In the midst of the busyness, at the foot of the desolate and steep mountain on the other side of the Yellow River, a large number of crowded figures suddenly appeared.

Before Tang Yong could see the reason, he saw those people rowing from the opposite bank with a floating bamboo row.

"What's the situation?" Tang Yong was confused, and he hurriedly asked people to pass Luoyang to patrol over, so as not to deceive the other side.

About half an hour later, the people who struggled to cross the river on the steep Yellow River with bamboo rows were finally able to make Tang Yong see clearly-

It seems that they are all civilians in cloth clothes?

Tang Yong did not send patrols to intercept them, but let them dock.

By the time they landed, hundreds of patrolmen had already surrounded the riverbank.

"General! Do you remember the lower officials? Xia Guan is the county guard of Wude County, Huaizhou, Shi Zhan, when the general came to Wude County to recruit government soldiers earlier, he had met Xia Guan several times. ”

Tang Yong looked at the talking old man in front of him a little confused, but he was familiar, but he had seen too many people, and he really didn't remember much.

But:

"The county guard of Wudejun?"

I saw that the old man in front of him was not wearing an official robe, but a gray burlap.

The people who followed him were less than three hundred, and if they were more, they might look like four or five hundred.

"And the general, please! Accept 13,000 families of Wude County to come to Zhouguo! ”

While speaking, Shi Zhan actually took the lead in kneeling down towards Tang Yong, his face full of emotional pleading.

"Eh," Tang Yong hurriedly helped the person to his feet:

"Surrender? Toucheng is naturally okay......"

At this time, Tang Yong had not yet realized what caused the people of Wude County to come to surrender under the leadership of the county guard.

"I heard about Yanshuo's slaughter by the Turks, hey!"

"Half a month ago, the forbidden army of Qi took the list to arrest people everywhere, at the beginning, I didn't know the reason for arresting people, and I thought it was a criminal."

"Later, I learned that the arrested people were all relatives and family members of those who surrendered to the Zhou Kingdom."

"The fact that His Majesty Zhou was forced to accept peace talks in order to save the hostages has also reached our ears with the word of mouth of the government soldiers!"

"Since the Huai River and even the Jiaodong area have been lost, the rents sent by the central government have become more and more heavy!"

"Under such a situation, and His Majesty Zhou loves the people so much, he will not surrender at this time! When to Toucheng? ”

"If you don't surrender to seek the blessing of the Zhou State, I'm afraid that when the Turkic barbarians go south for the second time, we will all die!"

"Please take me in and wait! And begged the general to try to build a ship and pick up 13,000 households of my Wude County! Cross the river and take refuge in Luoyang! ”

Tang Yong suddenly understood the meaning of the group of people in front of him-

It turned out that it was the Qi State that led the Turkic barbarians to break the hearts of the people! Make the people restless! I'm afraid that the next city to be slaughtered will be my own state and county!

Moreover, in order to save more than 1,000 hostages, Yuwen Shihong was willing to accept peace talks and give up going north!

Love the people so much! Who would like to stay in the mediocre Qi country that only knows how to conquer and strip?

"Good!" Tang Yong nodded happily to Shi Zhan:

"It just so happens that my Zhou Kingdom is vigorously building ships, and it needs a lot of manpower! In addition, the Sinong Temple of my Zhou State has issued a lot of Dao'an civil decrees, and I also asked Mr. Shi to go to the Luoyang Si Agricultural Bureau in person to understand. ”

got the promise, Shi Zhan was the most excited one!

All the comers excitedly thanked Tang Yong again and again! Then they hurried to the Agricultural Department in Luoyang to see how the Agricultural Department would arrange for them to stay and go.

In just a few days, Tang Yong, who stayed on the side of the Yellow River and built a ship by the way, received at least five county guards from the county towns on the north bank of the Yellow River to take refuge!

Tang Yong, who was happy, was still a little regretful and could have taken down the entire Qi country, but because his family was arrested......

Now, it's a pity!

He hurriedly approached the situation, in the form of a few letters, and sent it to Chang'an as soon as possible!

Similar to his experience, there is also Luozhou Thorn Shi Dugu Yongye! and the history of Liangzhou thorns!

……

After Yuwen Shihong left the early dynasty first, the letters delivered from Liangzhou, Luoyang, Luozhou and other places were circulated in the hands of the courtiers.

The courtiers did not expect that Yuwen Shihong would accept the armistice of peace talks for the sake of more than 1,000 hostages, and there would be such an unexpected gain!

The states and counties belonging to the Qi State that are very close to the many border states of the Zhou State are actually surrendering without a fight one after another!

If you don't want the city, you have to bring the people into the Zhou country!

"Sure enough, Your Majesty...... How can it be achieved! Ma Changchang and the others were only stunned.

was stunned, and he hurriedly left the Xuanzheng Palace-

If in the next period of time, there are hundreds of thousands of people who defected from Qi State, then Sinong Temple will be busy again!

Such as settling down, giving household registration, equalizing land, and distributing relief money, etc.

……

Dugu Yongye was killed and did not expect that in just a few days, more than ten county guards and more than 50 county commanders from the other side of the Yellow River came to express their sincerity!

I hope that Luozhou can open a road for them, and allow the people of the counties under their rule to come to Luozhou!

In order to avoid the disaster of the second raid of the Turks to the south!

I thought that Yuwen Shihong lost a big loss because of a small one, but I didn't expect that he would win the hearts of the people!

After handing over the letter reporting the situation to Chang'an, that night, Dugu Yongye received a reply from the Sinong Temple, the household department, the official department, and the Zhuzhu Prison in the middle of the court-

Collect everything! With the three decrees of peace and security, benefit the people, and encouragement! Accept all the people who wish to enter the city!

Unconsciously, Luozhou, a small state city that originally belonged to the Qi State, gradually became more prosperous.

In the past, when it still belonged to the Qi State, Luozhou did not have the concept of Fang Street at all.

Whether it is the magistrate or the local people, they all think that Fang Street is only available in the national capital.

But after more than a year has passed, Luozhou seems to be more prosperous than ever.

More than 10 square streets stand near the state capital, and there is an endless stream of people, and they will come out to visit the street when they are not working.
