Liang Jianfang, who was in the Anxi Protectorate, waited for the wind season to pass, and only after the end of this wind season could he go down the Ili River to Persia.

Liang Jianfang was sitting in an earthen house at the moment, listening to the wind outside the house and looking at the military report in front of him, only when he came to the Western Regions in person did he know so many things about Persia.

There is also a veteran general Duan Zhixuan stationed in the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, who started the army in Jinyang that year, and is also a general with great military experience.

Because of Li Shimin's trust in him, he sent him to garrison the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate.

"You can't know so much about Persia until you come to the Western Regions." Duan Zhixuan stroked his beard, and in his tone of voice, he regarded Liang Jianfang as a junior.

Liang Jianfang was in his thirties, and his eyes were resolute, and he put away these military reports, "So it seems that the war between Dashi and Persia has stopped for a long time?" ”

Duan Zhixuan nodded and said: "From the eve when Pei Xingjian was about to perish in Persia, he repelled the soldiers and horses of the big cannibals, as far as the old man knows, they have been fighting hard this year, and Wang Xuance took a trip to Tianzhu a few days ago. ”

"Tianzhu?"

"yes."

"What happened to Tianzhu?"

Liang Jianfang was very surprised by the huge amount of news piled up in the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, which could not be heard in Guanzhong.

The war between Datang and Dashi is still related to Tianzhu?

Duan Zhixuan said in a low voice: "Pei Xingjian wants to resist the big cannibal, even if he builds more earth cities, it will be difficult to resist the next counterattack of the big cannibal, and now what he lacks most is manpower and soldiers, which will make Wang Xuance go to Tianzhu to ask for soldiers and horses, but that time Tianzhu broke up with them unhappily." ”

"In the past, there were Tianzhu people who borrowed war elephants to the big cannibals, and now they have rejected Datang's request, so I think this matter can't be good."

Liang Jianfang was surprised: "Why has there never been such news in the DPRK and China. ”

Duan Zhixuan said in a low voice: "These news were sent to the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War as soon as possible, and they must have been shown to His Majesty, as for why no one in the court and the central government talked about it, how did the old man know?" ”

These words made Liang Jianfang secretly surprised in his heart, it seemed that it was a very simple thing to rush to help Persia, but he didn't expect there to be so many arrangements.

The burden in his heart was heavy, Liang Jianfang thought that he was just a rough man who could fight, and once it came to governance and political affairs, he felt a headache.

He looked a little painful, "Thinking that Pei Xingjian can find a trade-off among many parties, his skills will not be as good as it." ”

Duan Zhixuan, who was over half a hundred years old, patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't be discouraged, even if you and Pei Xingjian are going to hand over, when they are handed over to you, he will definitely arrange all those messy things." ”

After that, he took out another picture and a book, Duan Zhixuan said in a low voice: "Young and terrifying, Pei Xingjian left this book after going to Persia, he operated in the Western Regions for a year, and wrote down the deployment of troops, as well as population exchanges, customs and customs, and also wrote down the future governance strategy, the old man had an unknown place before, and he governed according to his strategy, and now he can also make some achievements in the Western Regions." ”

"Well, he's a very powerful young man, obviously a good material to be a scribe, but he aspires to be a general, which is very interesting."

Duan Zhixuan's evaluation is very good, I think he just won't easily praise other people's generals, which is enough to show Pei Xingjian's ability.

With the former so good, Liang Jianfang became more and more confused.

Duan Zhixuan comforted: "You don't have to look ahead, when you go to Persia, the old man and the dog will leave a back road for you in the Western Regions, and now the Tang Dynasty can afford to fight, and it doesn't hurt to lose for a while." ”

"The last general has sworn in Lishan to sweep away the great cannibals."

"Hahaha!"

Duan Zhixuan laughed loudly, and he nodded and appreciated Liang Jianfang a little more, "Seeing you is like seeing those heroes and heroes that the old man saw back then." ”

Liang Jianfang, who was in the Western Regions, had to wait for the wind season to pass, and Mu Si Abu, the Great Food Messenger in the Hexi Corridor, was also waiting for the wind season to pass before he could enter the Western Regions.

As he walked through the great city of the Hexi Corridor, he looked up and saw people still working on the city wall, which according to the people of Guanzhong was called Jiayuguan.

Now the construction of Chengguan has reached the final stage, it was still last winter, and it is still under construction.

The servants around Mus'abu recorded everything here, and he felt that the Tang people were very good at building houses, and their houses were beautiful.

And most of the big cannibals still live in caves, or in dirt pits.

At this time, Mus'abu noticed that the servant who had bought him something had an argument with a Tibetan man, and he started to talk about it.

Since coming out of Chang'an, Tian Khan has not given an attitude of war or peace, and has handed over the decision of this matter to the current king of Persia.

What is Belus, the king of Persia today?

Mu Si Abu held back the fire in his heart and fought against this Tubo man, but was finally taken down by the officers and soldiers of the Hexi Corridor.

In the end, he was brought to the front of Di Zhixun, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, who was now stationed in the corridor of the Hexi Corridor.

How did Mu Si Abu know that there were so many servants in the Tang Dynasty, Pei Xingjian, and so did the Hexi Corridor.

Di Zhixun felt that this matter was very difficult to do, and immediately a chief official on the side whispered: "I heard that this Great Food Envoy is very domineering, and he had a conflict with the Marquis of Lishan County in Lishan, and he left Chang'an City unharmed afterwards. ”

Hearing this, Di Zhixun's expression was solemn, and he said in a low voice: "Really? ”

"Well, there was news before this Great Food Emissary arrived at the Hexi Corridor."

The reason for the brawl in Jiayuguan has also been clarified, and it is caused by the fact that the big cannibal does not want to pay the money.

Buying and selling in the Hexi Corridor had to pay money, and those merchants outside the border also paid taxes on goods.

These people who have paid the goods tax can naturally trade freely in Jiayuguan.

Now this incident has made the Tubo people in Guannai resist very much.

There is a difficult problem in front of Di Zhixon, should this matter be handled lightly or re-done?

If it is said to be redone, it can calm the resentment of those Tibetan people.

The long history on the side was also an official from the Ministry of Rites at the beginning, to be precise, he was the person arranged by Xu Jingzong.

Changshi is an adjutant and has no real power, but he can participate in local deliberations.

This kind of official has been around Taishou since ancient times.

And how long has the Hexi Corridor just recovered from the turmoil, Your Majesty has arranged a position for a long history, which shows the importance of it.

If you don't pay attention to it, the geographical location of the Hexi Corridor is too important for Guanzhong.

"Di Shilang, the lower officials think that this matter should be punished personally, and they will be given heavy responsibility in the mutual market."

Seeing that Di Zhixun was still hesitant, Changshi on the side said again: "Di Shilang, to let this big food messenger leave Guanzhong, this is also what Xu Shilang meant." ”

It is the most important juncture between the Tang Dynasty and Dashi, and there may be a war in the coming year, so Di Zhixun naturally does not dare to take it lightly.

Although it is not clear what Xu Jingzong's intentions are, since it is the intention of the Ministry of Rites, this matter is too complicated.

Dickinson hoped that stationing in the Hexi Corridor would be a simple matter, and he did not want to prematurely implicate those in high positions in the schemes.

In the afternoon of the same day, Di Zhixun, the superintendent of the Hexi Corridor, had a notice posted, giving the Great Food Envoy a three-day hard labor and a fine of ten cents as an example.

The Great Food Envoy came to make the Tang Dynasty communicate with the court with the words of the Great Food, and the Great Food Envoy despised the governance of the Hexi Corridor in this way, and the Great Cannibal trade was suspended from today.

The Guancheng of Jiayuguan made a conclusion on this matter, and the punishment was also punished, and the ban was returned.

The Tubo people who traded in the Hexi Corridor died down.

Di Zhixun's approach gave Tubo people affection and also showed the attitude of the Tang Dynasty.

Ten-year-old Di Renjie walked over and said puzzledly: "Father, this matter is obviously the sin of cannibalism, if the foreigners act like this according to Tang Law, they should be imprisoned." ”

Di Zhixun sighed: "There are other arrangements for this matter in the Ministry of Rites, if my father imprisons him and does not let him return to the big food, I am afraid it will ruin the good things of many people." ”

"When a child thinks that a mistake is a mistake, he must admit punishment."

Di Zhixun nodded and said with a smile: "You are very right, your ideas are right to many people, but right and wrong are not so clear in front of the overall situation." ”

On the one hand, Dickinson was very satisfied with his son's talent, and he also appreciated his son's concept of right and wrong.

People in high positions in the court are complicated, how can it be so easy.

Mu Si Abu was doing coolies on the wall of Jiayuguan, he had to carry stones for a day, and at the moment he was struggling to carry a stone, full of resentment towards the Tang Dynasty.

Dickinson stood on the tower and observed the great cannibals.

Changshi on the side said in a low voice: "Di Shilang, a person who is full of resentment against Datang has returned to Dashi, what will he do?" ”

Di Zhixun put his hands on his back, looked up at the west, and replied: "If it is an old man, he will lead a large army to attack the Tang Dynasty." ”

After thinking for a moment, thinking about the big food now, Di Zhixon confirmed that his words were not wrong.

Na Changshi said again: "Does Di Shilang think that it really matters whether the court and the central government are fighting or making peace this time against the Great Food?" ”

"If Da Shi insists on going to war, then the outcome of the court meeting will not matter."

"That's what Xia Guan meant."

I was suddenly shocked in my heart, so I understood the intention of the court.

Di Zhixon looked at this young long history and wondered: "I have always known that your surname is Gao, but I don't know ......."

Changshi stepped back and saluted: "Xiaguan Gao Zhengye, my father Gao Jifu, is a member of the Zhongshu Provincial House." ”

"It turned out to be Gao Jifu, Gao Feng's child, no wonder ......"

Di Zhixun couldn't help nodding and said with a smile: "The old man has heard of him, and he can often advise, and he is upright, benevolent and filial. ”

Gao Zhengye smiled awkwardly, and said: "My father once said that if he could make achievements in the Hexi Corridor, Di Shilang would not always be condescending to the Ministry of Rites. ”

In the past two years, the Tang Dynasty has produced many talents, and the younger generation has become more and more prominent, and these talents have come forward, some of them are talented, some are well versed in the art of war, and there are many, many more.

Just the young people in the court make people feel a lot of pressure, the world has changed, and there will be more and more capable people in the future.

He thought of many people, looked a little more discouraged, shook his head and said: "What kind of achievements are you talking about, compared with those young talents, the old man is nothing." ”

Gao Zhengye still admires Di Zhixun, at least in his opinion, the Hexi Corridor presides over the mutual market, which is a fat difference, if others do something here, they can get the wealth that they can't get for decades.

It's just that Di Zhixun has been an official in the Hexi Corridor for four years, and he has not dared to slack off at all in the past four years, and he has not taken a penny more, and he has been honest and honest as an official so far.

This is also where Gao Zhengye admires.

East of Chang'an, Lishan.

In April, it is the busiest season, as long as you stand on a high place and look out, you can see that there are dots of people plowing the fields everywhere.

It was the busy farming season, and Lishan was also very busy, in addition to dealing with the affairs of the fields, it was also necessary to renovate the factory.

So much so that the matter of making firearms for the emperor has been put on hold until now.

Zhang Yang sat in front of Huaqing Pond and drank tea.

"Master, this is a report on the progress of the renovation sent by the construction teams of Lishan these days."

Hearing this, Xiaohui struggled to carry a bunch of pamphlets.

Zhang Yang motioned for her to put it down and continue to drink tea.

Xiaohui glanced at the bear's back that was still asleep

The construction of Lishan is different from the agricultural ecology on both sides of the Yangtze River and Yellow River basin, and the ecology of Lishan will change from the beginning of the construction of the steam engine in Lishan.

Zhang Yang continued to lecture to his daughter, "You have to sit upright and put your hands on your knees." ”

She straightened her seat.

"If you don't sit properly, it's easy to get distracted."

"Well, my daughter understands."

Zhang Yang continued: "The most intuitive way to change productivity is to directly improve productivity, in line with the attitude of concentrating on work, if our industry is mature enough, our productivity can exceed the past nearly 1,000 years by dozens or even 100 times......

Xiao Qingqing was puzzled: "Is there really a change so fast?" ”

The daughter has not seen the scenery of the afterlife, so naturally she does not understand.

Zhang Yang patiently explained: "At present, it is only a theory, so we have to continue to tackle key problems in this area, the steam engine is a big breakthrough, according to the expectation that Lishan will build five steam engines for the factory to increase production capacity, and also need corresponding technical support, from the current point of view, the problem of increasing the output of three times is not a big ......"

Li Yue was sewing and mending clothes, the children's clothes last year couldn't be worn this year, and they were also listening to her husband's story.

Xiao Hui and Xiao Wu sorted out Lishan's accounts, and listened to them without a word.

The younger siblings sat on the edge of the Huaqing pool, still writing their homework.

Zhang Yang stroked his daughter's head and said in a low voice: "Think more and be a thoughtful person." ”

"Daddy, there's something my daughter doesn't understand."

"You say."

"If land annexation is a primitive accumulation of the magnates, who violently take away the land and concentrate the production in the hands of a few, then why is there a separation of land and production?"

Her questions were vague and she didn't understand what she had said before, so the questions she was going to ask now didn't have a core.

Zhang Yang also patiently preached to her: "You don't have to worry, walk around the village more, see more, and listen to what our Lishan villagers say about Lishan." ”

"That daughter went to play."

Li Yue smiled and nodded, "Don't get into trouble." ”
