The so-called Lingzhou was still a relatively new state and county in this era, with little reputation.
But in Li Sheng's memory, it is a place that every liberal arts student is extremely familiar with.
The value of Lingzhou to China is like that of Dingxiang City to the Turks.
Dingxiang City is a city built by the Turks for the supply line going south, which is equivalent to a springboard.
Lingzhou is the only way for China to reach out to the Pamir Plateau and the main road of the World Island. It is a battlefield fortress and a springboard!
The two are each other's horns, faintly confronting each other.
Now the overall situation in Mobei is decided, but there will be a very complicated public security war in the future...
This public security war will naturally be launched through the base point of Lingzhou.
Finally, Li Sheng also made a request.
"By the way, Brother Li, there is one more thing I want to tell you."
"The city under our feet will be called the Anxi Protectorate from now on... Therefore, the three thousand people I lead will stay here in the future to avoid the city construction tasks being difficult for you. As for the public security tasks that will be returned, Brother Li will transfer them separately.
Give me three thousand forbidden troops, and then I will take a few people away."
"Um...does anyone have any questions?"
Li Sheng asked very thoughtfully, but Li Jing and others were all confused.
Being in a daze...
Damn it, why is the eldest prince asking questions like a private school teacher asking a child?
After nodding blankly, Li Sheng smiled slightly,
"In this case, I will run away first. Everyone..."
"I still say the same thing, Mobei has never been a border, but another Chang'an of our Tang Dynasty. If everyone can work hard, the future wealth will be unlimited..."
After giving instructions, Li Sheng finally set off with three thousand forbidden troops and returned to the original "datang territory", which was Lingzhou.
Save Li Jing and others from being confused the whole time...
Li Sheng said that he left wealth and honor to everyone, but I always felt as if he had settled everything.
The arrangements are clear!
Li Jing and others stood in the camp, looking at Li Shengnan with confused faces.
After a while, Li Jing murmured and sighed...
"This...it is true that in five hundred years there will be a king..."
"Pharmacist, now I'm waiting..."
Qin Qiong stood aside and asked blankly. Li Jing shook his head directly.
"We don't have to worry about anything. We just follow what the Holy Marquis says and everything will be solved."
"Ah? But..."
Qin Qiong frowned. He originally wanted to talk to Li Jing about the food and accommodation for these tens of thousands of people. Although Li Sheng gave him maps and illustrations, he was still a little uneasy because he didn't have real food in front of him everywhere in Mobei.
And Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong also had the same uneasiness.
Is the Turkic Khan dead or alive? How many remaining soldiers are there in Mobei...
Where exactly?
Although Li Sheng's "economic foundation" theory talks about these things in detail, how can anyone be reassured if they don't confirm it with their own eyes?
However, just like Qin Qiong, they saw Li Jing wave his hand as soon as they spoke.
"Knowing integrity, respecting morality... we really don't need to use our brains on these trivial matters."
"Ah??? But, the pharmacist..."
Qin Qiong and others felt that this was too outrageous, so we should still station the troops outside anyway.
But Li Jing shrugged.
"To tell the truth, His Majesty and I have been like this this year...anyway, it has always been like this."
"Until now, Your Majesty probably has no idea what edicts he issued this year. Almost all of them were the Holy Marquis's ideas..."
Qin Qiong, Yu Chigong, Cheng Yaojin:......
What you said makes so much sense, I am speechless!
…
By the way, after Li Jing arrived in Lingzhou...
It didn't take long to find out.
Although there have been frequent bandit troubles recently, the strange thing is that they are mostly in the original Mobei area, which was the former Turkic territory.
On the contrary, south of Lingzhou, basically nothing happened.
Li Sheng sent troops to search several nearby agricultural and animal husbandry producing areas, but no trace of the other party was found.
This made Li Sheng very surprised. What is the mystery behind this recent banditry...
Are these guys all cultivators of immortality and don’t need to eat or drink?
But then again...
Since the other party would not attack the Han people, Li Sheng had no motive to search mountains and seas at all costs.
Besides, since there was no threat to several major agricultural and animal husbandry areas, Li Sheng had no choice but to put it aside for the time being and focus on trade first.
It must be said that the martial ethics of China is a very dynamic value. When politics are clear and social conflicts are dealt with cleanly, the adventurous spirit of the Han people is quite sufficient.
For example, during the Western Han Dynasty, the various Han envoys did not need supplies or recruit troops at all times. They went around alone to cause trouble, and they were just having fun. In the end, world-wide feats such as the Silk Road were even born.
But then the environment changed, and things slowly went south. However, the political legacy left by the Han Dynasty was not ordinary. Until the fall of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Cao Wei and Sima usurped the Han Dynasty, and Liu Yuan, the Huns who rose up in rebellion, also used
The flag of Han.
Later Han, Cheng Han...
You can imagine how awesome he was back then.
Li Sheng's main business is just these.
And recently...
For some reason, the business cycle in Mobei started very quickly, and soon there was a large number of business trips!
This growth rate is not surprising, and Li Sheng is also busy receiving merchants from all over the world.
Although it is strange that there are many businessmen who come to Lingzhou to collect goods, but those who traffic in goods seem to like to go their own way...
This made Li Sheng very puzzled, but in short, if we can do business, we can strengthen exchanges. In the end, if we strengthen control, there will be no problem, so we can tolerate it.
Gradually he became busy, and Li Sheng had many other projects to work on, so he had to ignore this strange public security issue for now.
…
But a few days later, new news came.
But it was said that Li Sheng was busy carrying out business activities in Lingzhou. More than half a month had passed, and the business flow was getting bigger and bigger.
It even led to Li Shengdu having the idea of opening a Zicheng Zhai in Lingzhou.
But before that, Li Sheng had to do one thing first.
Establish China’s first university!
The first team consisted of most of the scholar soldiers who were withdrawn.
Li Sheng still valued these scholar soldiers very much. With their cultural level and battlefield experience, they would become the pillars of the Tang Dynasty in the future.
On the other side, there were naturally several teachers who came from Chengxi Academy in Chang'an.
Now the academy in Chang'an has its first batch of "second generation disciples" - that is, several teachers brought out by Li Sheng, and the students brought out can start teaching.
But this is obviously not enough. Li Sheng's goal is of course to establish a real industry.
This university in Lingzhou was naturally named Northwestern Polytechnical College by Li Sheng shamelessly...
This was his dream love school in his previous life. The plan was to close the school and move it to the Anxi Protectorate when Northern Xinjiang became more stable...
