"This is the innate great master of the Uighur clan, Yaoluo Ge Tongjian."
After Di Xin entered the commander's tent, he first asked Ouyang Xuan to introduce the identity of Yao Luo Ge Tongjian.
Then, he went on to introduce Ouyang Xuan's identity to Yaoluo Ge Tongjian: "Ouyang Xuan, the commander of the army, is in full charge of the military camp when I am in the capital."
Ouyang Xuan nodded slightly as a courtesy.
Yaoluo Ge Tongjian also nodded.
After the introduction, Di Xin asked Ouyang Xuan: "Have you received the letter I sent to you before?"
"I received it a few days ago. My humble duty does not disgrace my mission."
Ouyang Xuan understood and took the initiative to say: "Five refitted merchant ships, food for 3,000 people, as well as clothing, medicine and other supplies have been secretly handed over to the Uighur mission."
"By the way, this is the token left by the Uighur envoy."
Ouyang Xuan took out a wolf fang from his arms and handed it to Di Xin.
"What is done is not done."
Di Xin took it and handed it to Yao Luoge Tongjian, smiling: "Mr. Yao Luoge, can you rest assured this time?"
The wolf fang that was missing its sharp corner was indeed taken from the first prey killed by his disciple who had become the Uighur envoy under his guidance.
Yaoluo Ge Tongjian recognized him at a glance and had no doubts at that moment.
This time, he folded his hands on his chest, bowed towards Emperor Xin with the highest courtesy, and said gratefully: "On behalf of my clansmen, I would like to thank Prince Yu for his generosity."
Food, clothing, and medicine are the things that the remaining Uighurs lack most today. Prince Yu's move solved their biggest difficulty.
For the Uighur people today, after the failure of the coalition trap last year, how to save the people to a greater extent is the most important thing.
Yaoluo Ge Tongjian believed that when the Great Khan saw the food and supplies brought back by the mission, he would seriously consider Prince Yu's proposal.
Di Xin calmly accepted Yao Luo Ge Tongjian's thanks this time.
The reason why he told Ouyang Xuan about this matter as soon as he came back was to erase the last worry in Yao Luo Ge Tongjian's heart and let him understand that there is no need to worry about being betrayed when cooperating with him.
But now that this matter has been solved, the rest will be done at this moment.
Di Xin said: "Ouyang, Mr. Yao Luoge's arrangements will be left to you. Remember not to neglect Mr. Yao Luoge."
"yes."
Ouyang Xuan held up his hands and said to Yao Luo Ge Tongjian: "Sir, please come with me."
Yaoluo Ge Tongjian nodded slightly, gave a simple salute to Di Xin, and followed Ouyang Xuan out of the commander's tent.
When Zeng Hongshen saw this, he didn't stay any longer.
"Your Highness, I will go down to rest first."
"Um."
Di Xin was soon the only one left in the handsome tent.
After taking off his robe, he also lay on the bed and closed his eyes.
During the bumpy time on the boat, even with his avatar's true cultivation level, he was indeed a little tired. After returning this time, he naturally wanted to take a good rest.
Let’s talk about the rest tomorrow.
…
Nothing happened for a day.
The next day.
Led by Ouyang Xuan, most of the generals in the expeditionary force gathered in the commander's tent.
Di Xin stood in the main position, looking at these subordinates who had been fighting against him for several months and staying here for half a year, and said: "In three days, the army will return to northern Xinjiang."
Everyone was silent.
When the results of the negotiations between the imperial court and the foreign missions came out, they had anticipated this development.
After all, Northern Xinjiang is still a part of Dali and cannot do anything contrary to the purpose of the imperial court.
It would be a lie to say that they have no regrets. After several months, they set out from the northern border, circled the territory of Dali, and traveled east and south for almost half a circle before finally reaching here. The next Yi tribe had already started their expedition.
The list ended up like this.
Not being able to complete their work in one battle is their biggest regret.
But in addition to regrets, there is also more or less a glimmer of expectation in everyone's eyes.
No one doesn’t love home.
They left southern Xinjiang last year during the awning season, and now it's still late spring the next day.
They have not been home for nearly a year, and they miss their families in northern Xinjiang.
Di Xin looked around.
There was news of the peace talks coming in advance, so the withdrawal of troops was not an unexpected event, and the news he announced today was just to set a formal time for withdrawal.
The three days are not to delay anything, but the army is retreating and there are some loose ends that need to be resolved.
First, we need to send someone to send news of the army's triumph back to Northern Xinjiang.
An army of thirty thousand people is not a small number. Although the expeditionary force was already within the establishment of Northern Xinjiang, it had been away for nearly a year after all.
Camps, provisions, arrangements after the expeditionary force is disbanded, etc. all require time to prepare.
In addition, after the army triumphs, it will also take time to collect rewards for the soldiers.
Although the imperial court will definitely make some remarks, Northern Xinjiang also needs to make some extra preparations to encourage their efforts this year.
Northern Xinjiang is pretty good, and there is no need to consider transportation issues. Before Emperor Xin left the capital, the imperial court had already begun preparations for the rewards for the soldiers of the expeditionary force.
Those who leave their territory to expand their territory for the sake of greatness will be blessed for three generations.
But even so, the rewards for thirty thousand soldiers cannot be prepared in a day or two.
Then came the return of the warship.
There is little water in the north. There are only rivers in the north and there is no sea. If these warships are brought back, there will be nowhere to put them.
But even if there is a place, they can't just take it away.
After all, these warships were lent to them by Marquis Wu Cheng on behalf of Southern Xinjiang. It would be unkind not to return them.
He is not a monkey that jumped out of a rock and wants to take whatever good things he encounters along the way.
Only Wu Chenghou generously borrowed the boat and nothing happened, and Emperor Xin had no substantive evidence, so he didn't care.
In addition, there are also compensations to surrounding fishermen, etc.
The so-called people rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, and rely on the sea to eat the sea.
Although this place is outside the territory of Dali, it is not completely uninhabited.
After the expeditionary force was stationed, it occupied a long coastline for training. The fishermen who originally fished in this sea area naturally had to choose other places.
Fishing in distant places is more time-consuming and requires negotiation with the fishermen who have fished in that sea area before.
The lives of fishermen will naturally be affected.
If you were a traditional officer and soldier in this era, you would naturally not care about this.
When the army acts, ordinary people can only avoid it.
But the expeditionary force was different. Under Emperor Xin's instructions, when the army was stationed in the camp, it provided a certain degree of compensation to the fishermen who relied on this sea area for survival.
However, the army did not decide how long it would stay in camp.
Therefore, when the troops are withdrawn, the missing compensation must be returned according to the specific time when the army is stationed.
At the same time, these fishermen were told that after the expeditionary force retreats, they can return to this sea area to fish.
