Shen Fei and the young men of the Scarlet Pioneer Regiment were willing to listen to the shouts, and their knives fell, and there were no more living people on the ground.

More than a dozen horses galloped over in the distance, and when they got closer, they all rolled off their horses, and one of them took the lead in paying homage to him: "My subordinates know that Gao Yongsui of Xining Prefecture will see His Royal Highness King Qi." ”

The others also reported the official number, only to see one of them with a sad face, after reporting the official number, he looked at the corpse on the side, and said: "Lord Wang, the subordinates dare to ask which crime Xiao'er has committed and wants to be executed here?" ”

Zhao Ta looked at him: "Yutai? ”

The man complained: "Lord Wang, it is the lower official, I don't know where Xiao'er collided with the prince, even if Xiao'er raised some sheep in this horse farm, but the horse farm has been abandoned for many years, this is not a big sin......

"Isn't it a great sin?" Zhao Ta glanced at the wooden fence in the fire and took a deep breath.

Gao Yongsui in front took this opportunity to secretly pull the corner of Youtai's clothes, and Youtai ignored it and said: "Lord Wang, your subordinates ......"

Zhao Ta's gaze fell on him again, and he said word by word: "Xining Prefecture Observation Envoy Yu Tai, Zongzi destroyed the Longyou horse breeding military, burned the horse farm fence, despised the imperial court, and collaborated with the enemy, take it!" ”

The Scarlet Youth League stepped forward with a "hula" and directly tied up Yutai, and Yutai was just about to shout, but Shen Fei stuffed a rag into his mouth.

Gao Yongshun opened his mouth on the side, and finally sighed in his heart, he had already told Yutai about this, don't occupy the horse farm, even if the horse farm collapses and the heavy rain washes away, at most it is a poor maintenance, but if it is occupied, it is completely different in name.

Let alone...... Gao Yongshun glanced at the ranch fence that was about to be burned to ashes, and scolded in his heart that it was really crazy, so he never looked at Yu Tai again.

Xuanfu envoy is a wartime or post-war temporary post, at the beginning of the inspection, questioning, and then evolved into one or several military commanders, basically by the east and west government ministers, deputy ministers when the most, there is the power of life and death, Gao Yongshun has nothing to say, not to mention that this matter is the You family themselves looking for death.

Zhao Ta looked at him and said, "Kochizhou, go back to the city, this king also needs to see this ancient city of Qingtang." ”

Gao Yongsui saluted: "Respect the king's order." ”

Qingtang City, Tang called Shancheng, after the Anshi Rebellion, was controlled by Tubo, renamed Qingtang City, the Great Song Xi River opened the border, recaptured Qingtang, changed its name to Shanzhou, and then changed to Xining Prefecture.

During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Hexi Corridor, known as the Silk Road in later generations, was blocked by the separatist forces of Qianliang, Houliang, Beiliang, and Xiliang, which made it impossible for merchants to pass through.

At this time, the Tuyuhun in the Hehuang area was attracted and protected by the merchants, and then the merchants from the east and the west changed to take the Qiangzhong Road, which was also called Qinghai Road and South Silk Road by later generations.

Qingtang, occupying this road, led the southeast and northwest to rush, is the necessary place for business travel, is the commodity exchange, trading exchange distribution center, the late Tang Dynasty five dynasties once declined.

Later, with the rise of the Western Xia Kingdom, in order to avoid war and heavy taxes, the caravans changed to the Qiangzhong Road again, and Qingtang City became an important town on the South Silk Road and prospered again.

All the way to the northwest, until the city of Xiningzhou in front of the city, Zhao Ta looked at the pearl on this plateau, the city pillow in the south of the water, according to the main road in Qiangzhong, more than 20 miles wide, open eight gates, there are next to the city, to the door to pass it, for the east and west two cities, the west is the king city, the east is the mall.

After looking at it for a while, Zhao Ta smiled and said: "It's really a good place, not to mention business, it's just a choke point, no wonder all the Uighurs built it here, even the Uighur tribes also have to worry about it, they are all discerning, they know that this place is well-founded, and can be attacked and defended." ”

Gao Yongsui said on the horse: "The prince is high." ”

Zhao Ta suddenly remembered something and said, "This king has not gone elsewhere, can the West Sea still be stable?" ”

Gao Yongsui said: "It's quite stable, at the moment they are all familiar with Tibet, and there are many people who have joined the army, and now the Hehuangfan soldiers have reached more than 3,000 people, and there are fewer and fewer contacts with the southwest." ”

"Great Southwest, Ah ......" Zhao Ta looked thoughtfully at the far southwest, there was a legendary plateau eagle, and the time should still be there, but this eagle rarely interacted with the Great Song Dynasty throughout his life.

He turned his head, smiled, and said, "Kochishu, let's go to the city, this king still has important things to discuss with you." ”

Xicheng, Xining Prefecture, where all the military and political departments are located, the Longyou Protectorate and the State Mansion are the two largest prefectures, because the Longyou Protectorate has always been concurrently served by the Zhizhou, so it is basically empty, this time I learned that Zhao Ta came, only to redecorate it and clean it up.

The two are not next to each other, according to the south and the north, the prince has been protecting the capital since ancient times, and it is not uncommon, so even if Zhao Ta came in person, it did not cause much of a sensation.

Longyou Duhu because he has been a part-time official all these years, so the subordinate structure is relatively rough, and Zhizhou is concurrent, the house is basically empty-nest, Zhao Ta came to the palace and asked for some official positions, although there are not many, and some official positions have no official affairs to do, but the shelf must be supported, after all, he will also have to be remote after he leaves in the future, and the deputy capital guard will also have to do things.

After a secret conversation with Gao Yongsui, Gao Yongsui left the Metropolitan Protectorate with a heavy heart, and then, Zhao Ta began to place manpower, and the deputy Metropolitan Protector was not set up for the time being, but the general commander and his subordinates had to be set up.

The general judgment of the Longyou Protectorate, in fact, there is nothing to pass, there is no business to judge, there is no other reason, Xining Prefecture has its own general judgment, and he can't control the affairs of Xining Prefecture, as for Xining Prefecture and then west to the farthest point of more than 2,000 miles of Longyou territory, it is basically a sparse and small military city, in this military city along the border, who buys him a general judgment account.

However, this general judgment is a positive five grades, and the official position is not small, even if you come to such a northwest place, there are many people competing for it at that time.

There are two deputy positions in the capital for the time being, which are held by Yang Zhi and Shi Jin, after all, Xu Ning still has to work in the forbidden army, which is not more convenient than Yang Zhi and Shi Jin, two bachelors.

As for the military, there is not much to hand over, Zhao Ta is a Xuanfu envoy, it is enough to control the military power of Xizhou, and although Longyou is far away to the west, he is a prince, there is no worry about factions in the army, there is no competition for military power, the order sequence is issued, those small military city soldiers are excited, and the soldiers are also happy, only feel that the court attaches importance to it, and secretly thinks that from now on Xu can receive more than half a lot of money every month.

A few days later, everything was settled, and Zhao Ta put horse breeding on the agenda, after all, this is the nominal priority, and all the rights in Longxi are extended from here.

Now the horse farms from the east side of Xining Prefecture to Huangzhou are being repaired and improved, and the next step is to hire familiar horse farmers from Tubo as masters, select excellent stallions, buy foals, etc., and then some trivial details of specific horse breeding.

Zhao Ta actually didn't understand these breeding processes, but he dared to open his eyes and pat his chest to talk eloquently in front of Emperor Daojun, and Emperor Daojun, who was ambitious and sloppy, dared to think about raising horses, but it didn't seem to be that difficult.

What a major matter of life and death for the military state is the alliance on the sea and the attack on Daliao, Emperor Daojun dared to make a decision, not to mention raising horses for tens of thousands of taels of silver.

Early in the morning, Zhao Ta sent someone to invite the brothers and sisters of the Zhi family, and Xu Ning and other four of his subordinates, all the way out of the Duhu Mansion and walked in the direction of the partition wall of the East and West Cities, planning to take a good look at the ancient Qingtang Ancient City, which has been famous since ancient times.
