The Jianghan Army began a large-scale relocation. Li Ye immediately appointed Liu Yan as the Hanzhong resettlement envoy, Wang Wei and Li Baozhen as the deputy resettlement envoys, led 10,000 troops and a large number of tents to Liangzhou, and established warehouses and military camps in Liangzhou.
Jingxiang's 50,000 camels and thousands of military ships began to move and began to transport and relocate various money, food and materials.
The family members living in Xiangyang City also began to pack their things. Fortunately, when the emperor took refuge in Hanzhong, a large number of officials' houses were built in Nanzheng County. The ownership of these houses belonged to the imperial court, and the local officials did not dare to handle it without authorization. It happened that Li Ye
All of them were requisitioned and used as housing for officials, generals and their families.
As the soldiers' families moved westward, the soldiers also built hundreds of villages near Guantian and Juntian to accommodate the soldiers' families.
Pei Sanniang's biggest concern was that Qingyu would go with her. Although Qingyu agreed to return to the secular world, she was not mentally ready to get married. She hoped to return to the secular world when she was seventeen years old. Pei Sanniang agreed immediately.
Pei Sanniang also paid a special visit to Qingyu's father, Li Bai, and formally proposed marriage to him, promising that Qingyu would become a ruren. The status of a ruren was not low. Even if Li Bai's wife was in the fifth rank, she would not be granted the status of a ruren.
If it were another prince, Li Bai might not agree, but since his daughter became Li Ye's partial concubine, Li Bai accepted the proposal and accepted the marriage.
But the surname issue that Pei Sanniang is most worried about is that both of them have the surname Li, which would violate the Tang Dynasty's rule that people with the same surname should not marry.
This problem was solved by Li Bai. He agreed that after Qingyu returned to secular life, she would still be called Liu Qingyu and take her mother's surname as before. This perfectly solved Pei Sanniang's worries.
In order to allow Qingyu to move with peace of mind, Pei Sanniang persuaded Li Tengkong, and Li Tengkong agreed to temporarily move the Taiqing Palace to Nanzheng and later to Kongtong Mountain, which was the Taoist holy land that Li Tengkong had longed for.
The Jianghan army migrated in three batches. The first batch left fifteen days ago. When the camels and ships returned, Li Ye led an army of 80,000 and a mighty family team to set off as the second batch, including war horses and 50,000 heads.
Camels, 8,000 carts and 2,000 warships, the procession stretched for nearly a hundred miles.
The third batch was the finale, with Pei Xiu leading 10,000 troops to leave Xiangyang on the last day of the deadline.
Li Ye and his family were sitting on a five-thousand-stone warship. The warship was also loaded with their family's luggage, and some of their servants also moved with them.
Pei Sanniang stood on the bow of the boat, looking at the endless migration team. She sighed: "This team is more spectacular than the emperor's migration to Hanzhong, and there are so many big trees on the water."
Li Ye smiled and said: "Mother, don't underestimate these wood. These are the wood used to build the palace. They are worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. I can't bear to leave them to the court."
At this time, a maid came forward and bowed, "Old madam, the princess said it is windy outside, please come into the cabin!"
Pei Sanniang nodded and said to Li Ye, "Ye'er, come too! Everyone is full of questions."
"Mom, go ahead! I'll be right away."
Pei Sanniang went back to the cabin. Li Ye stood on the bow and looked at the trackers on the shore. The fleet was heading westward against the current. Of course, it could only be pulled by trackers. Thousands of trackers shouted slogans and walked hard on the cliffs.
If you are not careful, you will fall off the cliff, or be broken into pieces, or be washed away by the rapids. The scene is very shocking, but this is the means by which they make a living. Everyone leaves their lives to God.
Li Ye watched for a long time and then returned to the cabin. The whole family was sitting in the cabin, and his wife was breastfeeding her youngest daughter Yaoguang. This was the name Li Dai gave his granddaughter, but he still followed the old lady Dugu's habit of naming her after stars.
Mother Pei Sanniang was also helping. On the other side, by the window, Yang Yuhuan was holding her eldest daughter Xingsha in her arms and telling her the story of the bird. Xingsha blinked and listened very attentively. She was almost two years old.
, likes to listen to stories very much, and especially likes the birds in the sky. Aunt Mu is sitting in a corner with her palms clasped and silently chanting sutras.
It was very quiet in the cabin, and Li Ye couldn't bear to disturb him.
Just as he was about to exit, Dugu Xinyue smiled and said, "Husband, please tell us about your future arrangements!"
Yang Yuhuan raised her head, this was also something she was concerned about.
Li Ye sat by the window, held his eldest daughter in his arms, sat cross-legged on the bamboo couch and said slowly: "Moving is a strenuous thing. I try to minimize the impact. I think everyone will be happy."
I lived in Hanzhong for about two to three years. Our house was the emperor's palace when he was in Nanzheng. It was actually an official residence of thirty acres. It was said that the conditions were very good. After all, it was the place where the emperor lived."
"Aye, does it matter if you live in the palace?" Pei Sanniang asked worriedly.
"fine!"
Li Ye smiled and said: "Cheng Yuanzhen took the initiative to hand over these official residences, including the palace, to us. This is the scope of his control. He took 30,000 gold coins from me. He would do this kind of favor."
"I remember there is a large government office next to it. It is a temporary court. Do we need to use it too?"
Li Ye smiled slightly and said: "We named that official office the Marshal's Mansion of the Hou Army. It is in charge of logistics in name, but in fact everyone's official offices are there, including my own. However, the Jiedu Envoy's Office will be located in Qinzhou.
It’s just in Qinzhou in name only.”
Dugu Xinyue's eyes lit up, "Will your husband also stay in Hanzhong?"
Li Ye shook his head, "I want to lead the army to fight, but I will come back often. I will not fight all the time. After a war is over, I will stop for a while and start planning for the next war. I will use my free time to go home.
, especially in winter, when the snow in Longyou is heavy, both sides will cease fighting."
Pei Sanniang felt a little sad when she saw the new moon, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "Ah Ye, this bamboo couch is nice! It's very comfortable, and it's different from the couch I usually sit on."
Li Ye smiled slightly and said: "This is called a bamboo chair, or a bamboo lounge chair. I bought it in Qiupu County. It is very comfortable to lie on it and take a nap in the summer. I will promote it in Hanzhong and Longyou in the future."
When Dugu Xinyue saw her little daughter asleep, she gently placed her in the big cradle and asked the wet nurse to come and take care of the child.
At this time, soldiers outside shouted: "Entering Liangzhou!"
Hanzhong is bounded by the Qinling Mountains to the north and the Micang Mountains to the south, forming a long and narrow Hanzhong Basin. The five states of Hanzhong, Xing, Feng, Liang, Yang, and Jin are distributed in the narrow Hanzhong Basin.
The Han River flows between two mountains. After hundreds of millions of years, it has alluvialized small plains in the narrow basin. County towns are dotted on these small plains.
Among them, the Nanzheng Plain is the largest, two hundred miles long and thirty to sixty miles wide. Therefore, Liangzhou is the cabbage heart of the entire Hanzhong Basin. It is also the largest and most populous state among the five Hanzhong states, and it is also the place with the most military fields.
.
All the land in Guanzhong was divided up by the powerful, so the imperial court had to set up a large number of military fields in Hanzhong. According to the agreement reached between Li Ye and the imperial court, the military fields in Nanzheng were allocated to Li Ye's army free of charge for five years to temporarily house the family members of the army.
.
Li Ye originally thought that the family members of the Hezhong Army would continue to stay in Xiangzhou and Dengzhou, but in fact, when Li Ye's army moved westward, all 13,000 military family members also chose to move westward, which was really beyond Li Ye's expectation.
The tens of thousands of hectares of military land in Nanzheng were mainly used to house them.
In the future, after they capture Hexi and Longyou, Li Ye will also use the most fertile land to settle the soldiers' families and let them settle down completely.
This morning, the huge team finally arrived in Nanzheng.
