Outside Shazhou City, Ai Yihai, who had arrived first, lined up on both sides of the road. A colorful shed was set up in front of the gate of Shazhou City. Shazhou's civil and military officials, gentry and celebrities, and heads of major families were all dressed in bright clothes.
Standing with head cocked.
"Lieutenant Yang is here!"
When the news spread, there was a commotion in front of Shazhou City. Everyone looked around, only to see a group of people walking far ahead. Neither the octagonal felt tent pulled by the sixteen horses nor the large wolf-headed banner was seen in front of them.
First came the infantry, then the cavalry, all leading with armor and shields, followed by the flag officers and escort officers, with flags and flags fluttering behind them, and signs of "Quiet" and "Avoid", followed by the Jinwu guards, who lined up in a straight line.
The troops were arrested in Tsing Yi, followed by a sedan with eight handles and eight clusters of shoulders. A person on the sedan wore a black gauze with half a foot long wings, a scarlet bullfighting robe, Jingshan jade across his waist, and a Taiwei tooth plaque hanging across his waist.
, golden fish key, majestic and noble.
Behind him, there are more than ten generals wearing helmets and armor, majestic horses with precious saddles, and countless soldiers wearing battle jackets and fur hats. Looking from a distance, the red tassels on the hats are like clusters of flames.
Dazzling to the eyes.
The officials and gentry of Shazhou seemed to realize at this time that Yang Hao was not only a conqueror with an army of 100,000, but also a military general who served as the governor of Hengshan, the governor of Dingnan, and the protector of Anxi.
He was also the envoy of the Song Dynasty to the Third Division of Yitong in Kaifeng, and he had the power to open offices, establish offices, and appoint and dismiss officials. Yang Hao knew that the water would overflow when the water was full, and the moon would be short when the moon was full. He always acted in a low-key manner, but now Zhao Guangyi took action brazenly, and the troops pointed directly at him.
In Fuzhou, he can no longer keep his reputation secret.
There are millions of Han people scattered all over the Western Regions, and they have been cut off from the Central Plains since the Anshi Rebellion in the Tang Dynasty. For more than two hundred years, although they miss their homeland and yearn for the Central Plains, they only miss and admire them in the name of the Central Plains.
The people and things imprinted on their hometown would not for no reason regard the Song Dynasty, which had just unified the Central Plains just ten years after the Five Dynasties Rebellion, as the orthodoxy they should obey.
In other words, the Han people in the Western Regions are the best to return home. Today has left a deep imprint in their hearts, using both kindness and power to let them know that they, the conquerors from the east, are the supreme rulers who control the civil and military affairs of this place. Then they
They will become their own people, just like when a cub opens its eyes, it will regard the first creature it sees as its own parents, so Yang Hao also took great pains to appear in front of them, and at this moment, he really took the lead.
.
As soon as the Ming sedan with eight shoulders and eight clusters arrived in front of the city, all the civilized warriors and gentry in Shazhou immediately came forward to greet them. Yang Hao, with a spring breeze on his face, got off the sedan to return the courtesy. Ai Yihai introduced him to the side. When he heard that the old man with a bright head standing at the front was
Zhang Chengxian, Yang Hao quickly took the lead: "Yang Hao has admired Zhang Weng's name for a long time, and today he is able to meet him. It is such a blessing. Come on, come on, please invite Zhang Weng and Yang to go into the city together."
Zhang Chengxian was startled, and quickly waved his hand and said: "No, no, no, how can I ride with the Taiwei? The people of Shazhou have longed for the Taiwei's dignity and appearance for a long time. Please also ask the Taiwei to get on the sedan quickly. We will have our own ride.
We should follow the Taiwei and enter Shazhou together."
Yang Hao smiled and said: "Hey, the old gentleman is too polite. Everyone, please get on the sedan. We can have a good time after we enter the city. Zhang Weng, don't refuse. Please, please get on the sedan."
Yang Hao couldn't help but help Zhang Chengxian and walked to the sedan chair. Zhang Chengxian couldn't refuse again and again, so he apologized and sat half-ass on the couch, sideways.
As soon as the honor guard entered Shazhou City, they saw a crowd of people on Guiyi Street. The people of Shazhou were filled with awe for Yang Hao, who once stormed the Hexi Corridor, and his achievements were the same as Zhang Yichao, the eternal hero in the hearts of Shazhou people.
and curiosity, when they saw with their own eyes that the person riding into the city in an eight-carriage sedan with Zhang Chengxian, the old patriarch of the Zhang family, was actually a young and heroic young man, they couldn't help but admire him.
The powerful words that Yang Hao announced to the northwest before leaving the army have been spread in the streets and alleys of Shazhou, and everyone is familiar with them. Yang Hao's words aroused the long-suppressed heroic spirit and longing for their hometown in their hearts.
They are like wanderers who have lost contact with their hometown for a long time. They have forgotten everything about their hometown. The hometown that they were once proud of and that was their strong backing and pillar has become a word of mouth passed down from generation to generation in Shazhou.
distant legend.
Even Zhang Yichao was a native of Shazhou. His rebel army raised troops from Shazhou and fought from west to east. The Tang Dynasty was unable to support him with an army. Although Zhang Yichao went from nothing to unifying China in just two years,
Sha Eleven Prefectures became the de facto king of the Western Regions, but his power ended there. At that time, the relationship between the Western Regions and the Central Plains was still full of dangers and powerful enemies were everywhere. After Zhang Yichao unified Gua Sha Eleven Prefectures, he sent envoys to
It actually took nearly two years for the Central Plains Jin to meet the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. It can be imagined how difficult it is for ordinary Han people in the Western Regions to meet a figure from their homeland.
But Yang Hao came from the Central Plains, and what he brought with him was the true local accent and appearance!
His guards were uniformly dressed as the Central Plains army, with soap silk shirts, silk trousers, outer battle robes, red scarves tied around their necks, and leather trousers on their heads, with red tassels on their caps fluttering in the wind like flames...
This army is truly a team that came from the Central Plains.
There are more and more people on the road, and the front guard of honor has to use shields to resist the crowds that are constantly pushing towards the center, in order to open up a path for Yang Hao's honor guard. Seeing this situation, Yang Hao suddenly leaned forward and faced the galloping horse.
Mu En on the side gave an order, and the caravan stopped moving forward. Yang Hao slowly stood up from the sedan chair, and was crowding forward excitedly. The people of Shazhou who were rushing to see Yang Hao's face suddenly fell silent.
Zhang Chengxian next to him saw this and stood up. Yang Hao hurriedly supported Zhang Chengxian, his eyes swept over the faces of countless people on both sides of the road, and suddenly gave everyone a fist and said loudly: "Fellow folks!"
Although the street was crowded with people, the sound immediately became silent. The woman holding the ignorant child in her arms quickly covered the baby's mouth, fearing that he would cry and not be able to hear Yang Hao's voice.
Yang Hao raised his Dantian Qi and spoke loudly: "During the Tang Dynasty, more than a hundred years ago, the Tang Dynasty envoys went to the Western Regions. At noon, the Liang, Gan, Su, Gua, and Sha states had been occupied for many years.
We, the Han people, were surprised to see the festival of our homeland, and greeted us with a mixture of sadness and joy. Your ancestors once shed tears and loudly asked the envoys from the Central Plains: 'Does the emperor still remember the Han people who were trapped in Tubo?'"
Having said this, Yang Hao paused, suddenly raised his voice, and said loudly: "Today, I, Yang Hao, can tell you here that the emperor of the Tang Dynasty is no longer here, but the Han people from the Central Plains who share the same blood as you
, we have never forgotten you, we remember you, so... today, we are here!"
The street was so quiet that one could hear it clearly even if a pin dropped to the ground. After a long time, as if a whimpering wind blew gently, low sobs gradually sounded on Guiyi Street. Many people, especially
The white-haired old people all had blurry eyes and wept uncontrollably.
Yang Hao's eyes were also moist. He took a long breath and said loudly: "Today, I marched into Shazhou with my troops and integrated with the Guiyi Army. I will uphold the legacy of General Zhang Yichao, help the people and protect the people, and ensure that Hexi
The corridors are unobstructed, protecting the people of the Western Regions from living and working in peace and contentment; setting up farmland in the fertile wilderness, and placing mails on key roads. Traveling by post with great speed, they will not stop at all times; Hu merchants and Han guests will pay their bills under the fortress, and the ancient roads will be prosperous again.
!”
"Long live, long live, long live!"
An excited, trembling old man suddenly knelt on the ground, bowed to the ground, and shouted loudly.
When one person moved, everyone followed, and the people around him were quickly infected. Then they knelt down and worshiped Yang Hao: "Long live! Long live..."
Just like a stone thrown into a calm lake, ripples spread out. With them as the center, a vast black mass of people responded one after another, knelt down and shouted.
The feelings of the common people are the simplest and the easiest to be moved. However, the officials and gentry in Shazhou have experienced a lot, but they will not shed tears of gratitude just because of a few thoughtful words. They have heard some unusual meanings from them.
: The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is gone, but now there is an emperor of the Song Dynasty in the Central Plains, but Yang Taiwei only said that the Han people in the Central Plains have not forgotten the Han people who were abandoned in the Western Regions, and did not mention the Emperor of the Song Dynasty. This is intriguing.
And at this moment, the people are shouting long live, and the Taiwei...
Yang Hao subconsciously looked back and looked to the east.
Once upon a time, he had experienced such a scene. At that time, he was frightened and sincerely got off his horse, knelt facing the east, led the crowd to shout long live, and conveyed the gratitude and love of the people to His Majesty the Emperor in the East. But now
, will he get off the sedan chair again and lead everyone to kneel facing east?
"Long live!" was heard, Yang Hao slowly sat down, gently waved his hand forward, and the honor guard moved forward again. The people consciously moved to both sides, watching Yang Hao's honor guard go forward in fear.
Behind them, there was a mighty army, and they suddenly sang "Grand Formation Music" loudly in unison.
Da Zhen Yue is the war song of the Tang Dynasty. Few people in the Central Plains can sing this war song anymore, but in the hearts of the Han people who were separated from the Western Regions, anything passed down by their ancestors is extremely precious. It is these
They keep their homesickness and connection with their homeland, and the music of "Da Zhen Yue" is naturally familiar to them.
The difference is that the tune is still the same tune, but the lyrics sung by Yang Hao's men have been changed with many things out of date removed.
The war drums rumbled, accompanied by the soldiers' majestic songs: "The royal winds of the four seas, the virtues and the clear water for thousands of years; I don't even have to wear my military uniforms, I am successful today..." Looking back, the Qin fortress is as low as a horse, and gradually the Yellow River flows straight north.
The power of heaven rolls directly over the Jade Gate, and the barbarians from thousands of miles away sing the songs of Han..."
At that time, Tuyuhun invaded Shazhou. Zhang Yichao defeated the enemy army and chased him for more than a thousand miles. He captured Prime Minister Tuyuhun alive and beheaded him together with the invading prisoners. He was proud and proud of the world. When they triumphed, the whole army sang "
It's "Da Zhen Yue". How long has it been since it was so majestic?
I don't know when, the people of Shazhou started to sing in unison: "The royal wind in the four seas, the virtue and clear water for thousands of years; I don't even have to wear my military clothes, today I am successful. The Lord opens the Changli, and the ministers are loyal to Dayou; the king looks at Yan After the revolution, it will be the peaceful autumn..."
The lyrics they sang were different from those of Yang Hao, but the two voices blended together perfectly, echoing at the top of Shazhou City and on the yellow sand of the desert...
In the car behind, Zhu Yun leaned slightly sideways, listening to the majestic and heroic "Grand Formation Music", staring at the back of Yang Hao sitting in front of him on a sedan chair, his eyes were as dark as two pools of old wine, and he Drunk from drinking poop.
It took a long time for her to wake up. When she suddenly looked back, she found that the dog sitting next to her was also staring blankly ahead. There was a tranquility and serenity on her face that she had never seen before, and her eyes were hazy. Like stars in the mist, Zhu Yun's heart couldn't help but jump: "Is it possible that this little girl in her twenties... actually has a romantic heart?"
"I...why should I say that?" Zhu Yun's face suddenly turned as bright as a pomegranate.
"Hey! Sister Zhuyun, what's wrong with you?"
The dog seemed to notice her gaze, looked back, and asked in surprise.
Zhu Yun calmly took out a handkerchief from her sleeve, fanned it gently, and said calmly: "The sun is too hot, let's put down the curtain..."
After crossing the long street, the group arrived at the Dunhuang Palace.
Yang Hao was invited into the hall, and Shazhou's military and political dignitaries, as well as heads of major families, came forward to salute again.
Yang Hao was their enemy yesterday, but today he has transformed into the leader they will be loyal to. This introduction seemed a bit like surrendering and acknowledging the master, so Yang Hao no longer refused, sat down calmly, and accepted their great gift.
"Everyone, please take a seat."
After the officials, gentry and celebrities in Shazhou had finished their greetings, Yang Hao said with a genuine smile: "You all understand the righteousness and have avoided a war in Shazhou. I am here to fight against the sand on behalf of my 100,000 expeditionary officers and soldiers. Thank you to all the officers and people of the state."
"What the hell, Taiwei is too polite. The Cao family doesn't understand the righteousness and the general situation. How can we associate with them? Zhang Weng's impassioned words were so inspiring that they not only woke us up, but also aroused the soldiers who returned to the Yi army. We will not make the mistake of following the Cao family against heaven, becoming the enemy of the Taiwei, and destroying our 800-year-old city of Shazhou..."
Yang Hao chuckled and said: "Zhang Weng is the successor of Jinwuwei General Yi Chaogong. Of course he understands the righteousness, but the people who are located in Shazhou must also contribute a lot. This time you all worked together and under the call of Mr. Zhang , the collective response saved the ancient city of Shazhou from war and saved countless lives inside and outside Shazhou. Over the years, Shazhou has stood in a land of tigers and wolves, and has always inherited our Chinese mantle. All civil and military officials and local celebrities in Guasha, the same This is a great achievement. I have long heard that the ancient city of Dunhuang is full of talented people, and that all the great families have hidden dragons and crouching tigers. If I want to govern Guasha in the future, I will have to rely on you all to show your sincerity and work together for a great cause!"
After hearing this sentence, many people's uneasy hearts calmed down a little.
Yang Hao added: "Since ancient times, to govern a place, it has been nothing more than garrisoning troops, cultivating fields and reclaiming wasteland, setting up officials and assigning duties, making mails and post offices accessible, organizing households and people, paying grain and taxes, levying taxes on industry and commerce, and dispatching military services. Government-established schools, national examinations, currency convertibility, etc. Dear Guasha officials, I will try my best to retain my original position. However, my official government, government decrees and laws are also different from those of the Cao family. In this case, some official positions There will be readjustments, and some vacated positions will also be reassigned. I hope that the officials involved in the adjustments can understand my painstaking efforts, and that talented people who want to be reused should not refuse."
In order to stabilize people's hearts as soon as possible, Yang Hao naturally tried his best to accept the original officials and the aristocratic families in Guasha, but it was impossible to say that he would not be touched at all. Zhang, Suo, Cao, Yin, Li, Si,
Among the nine big families of Yan, An, and Linghu, although the Suo family also participated in the coup that overthrew the Cao family, the Suo family had to obey because the head of the family was under control. Being active and passive were different, and the rewards they received were naturally different.
It was originally the second largest aristocratic family in Shazhou, and it was the closest to the Cao family, occupying many important positions in Guasha. At this time, it was inevitable that the position had to be replaced by someone else. Of course, this family was the Zhang family who contributed the most to the coup in Shazhou.
Furthermore, the Cao family, which occupied the most important positions in the military and political circles of Guasha, has collapsed. These positions must be filled by someone. Yang Hao may make great efforts from the relatively weak Si, Yan, An, Linghu and other families.
Promote new people, strengthen checks and balances among the major families, and possibly appoint some of his close officials to strengthen direct control over Guasha. In short... something must be done.
However, Yang Hao has a large army at his disposal. If he is determined, he can eradicate the entire original ruling class of Shagua Erzhou and re-establish it from scratch at the cost of two or three years of turmoil and depression, and the major families will not care about you.
Although Guasha has a long history, spreads its branches, has a deep mass base, and has great prestige and influence, but it does not have the conditions to compete with Yang Hao militarily, then it can only express its will in the face of this kind of distribution of interests.
Agreed, besides, they didn't expect Yang Hao to overthrow the Cao family and vacate the power position created by the Cao family's loss of power.
It's just that it's still unknown who will go up and who will go down, and it's hard for everyone to respond. When Zhang Cheng saw this, he stood up and said with a smile: "I, the gentry of Shazhou, specially prepared a sumptuous banquet to welcome the Taiwei.
Let's all go to the banquet first. The Taiwei has taken over Dunhuang, and there is hope for Guasha's renaissance. We will not get home today unless we are drunk. Haha, even though we are old, we still need to have a few drinks on such a happy day. Taiwei, please, everyone.
,please……"
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
When meeting the officials and gentry of Shazhou for the first time, in fact, there is no need to mention these arrangements immediately. Everyone can have a grand feast, exchange cups and cups, and part ways happily. Then, follow Yang Hao's usual safe approach, first talk separately, unify their thoughts, and then
Open discussion and formal announcement.
But Yang Hao is really anxious now. Before he conquered the Second Shagua Prefecture, he was looking forward to entering the Second Shagua Prefecture day and night. Now that he finally conquered the Second Shagua Prefecture, he was looking forward to leaving immediately.
There was a nail in the house waiting for him to pull it out, and the flames of war in Linfu and two states were also waiting for him to put out the fire. He couldn't help it, so he could only try to speed up the pace of his operations in Shazhou and get started immediately.
Distribution of power.
Of course, as we just arrived today, there is no need to carry out various appointments and transfers immediately. This is just to give the major families and Shazhou officials a heads-up and stop there. Despite this, the officials and gentry families in Shagua and Shazhou have
We still fully appreciate Taiwei Yang’s vigorous and resolute actions.
After the banquet was over, Yang Hao stayed at the palace.
As soon as he returned to his residence, the dog appeared in front of him, holding a thick stack of things in his hand, and said: "Uncle, all the criminals of the Cao family have been detained and are waiting to be relocated. This is the house that belongs to Cao."
My uncle still needs to tell me how to deal with the account books of my family's farm, real estate, shops, ranches, gold, silver, wealth, and silk."
"I won't read it. You can just do the specific disposal. My opinion is: all the property belonging to the Cao family will be confiscated. I will set up governors in Guasha and build government offices. Not only will
When employing people, you also use money. The Cao family’s savings of a hundred years are just for me. The property that can be used directly is sealed up first, such as farms, farms, pastures and shops. Let’s see who is willing to buy it from the major families in Guasha.
Just make a price and sell it."
"yes."
The dog was about to run away, but Yang Hao suddenly called her again: "By the way, your sister Zhuyun..."
"Um?"
"Zhu Yun was injured one after another when she returned from Longyou. The injuries were serious. Although she is recovering now, she still needs to be taken care of carefully. Where is she..."
Gou'er suddenly said: "Uncle, don't worry, Sister Zhuyun is living with Xiaoyi now. In fact, Sister Zhuyun is almost recovered. She hasn't taken a bath for many days. When she saw the bathtub, her eyes lit up."
, he jumped in with a swish, his movements were nimble."
Yang Hao laughed and said: "That's good. Uncle and the Shazhou gentry had a few more drinks, and now they are a little dizzy. I'll take a rest first."
"Oh!" Gou'er agreed, but did not leave immediately. Seeing Yang Hao and his clothes lying on the couch, he suddenly stacked down the stack of account books and walked over quietly.
Yang Hao was feeling top-heavy when a pair of soft little hands suddenly gently touched his forehead. The massage force was neither light nor heavy, the technique was light but not floating, heavy but not stagnant; soft yet hard, hard yet soft, it was soothing.
He was in a state of ecstasy. Yang Hao did not open his eyes. He just breathed a long sigh of relief, assumed a more comfortable posture, and completely relaxed his body...
The re-establishment of political power in Shazhou is indeed very complicated. Just the personnel arrangement requires a lot of thought. It is necessary to reuse the Zhang family, let the descendants of the Zhang family exert their residual energy, and use Zhang Yichao's reputation to offset the influence of the Cao family that has ruled the Guiyi Army for decades.
, to ensure the stability of the Guiyi Army, we must also weigh the pros and cons and properly arrange the positions of the major families in the new government so that they can work together and check and balance each other. At the same time, we must also place Xiazhou officials and strengthen control over the two states of Shagua.
direct control.
The formulation of money, grain, and taxes was also very careful, not only to let the people of Guasha feel that the Yang family was superior to the Cao family, but also not to be unreasonably flattering, so that the people of Shagua took low taxes and taxes as a matter of course, and raised soldiers.
The expenses required for war, government governance, etc. must be collected through money and grain taxes. However, there is no need to worry too much about this aspect. After the unification of the Hexi Corridor, the long-abandoned ancient trade roads will be rejuvenated. Lika taxes will be collected.
The income is enough to offset the loss of agricultural and animal husbandry taxes, and it is also very wealthy.
At the same time, Yang Hao focused on the two prefectures of Shagua and strengthened his propaganda in the surrounding areas. Various ethnic groups in Hexi prefectures live together. Ganzhou is the territory of the Uighurs and Liangzhou is the territory of the Tufan people. However, there are also a large number of ethnic groups in their territories.
The Han people, and the Guasha area is under the rule of the Han people, and there are also a large number of Tubo and Uighur people under its jurisdiction. Of course, these people must also be included in the rule. Furthermore, using the great reputation gained after occupying Guasha, we must try to recruit as many people as possible.
People in villages and towns in the desert oasis.
The natural environment of the Hexi Corridor is difficult, and the places where people live are dotted in small oases. Although the nearby Shiban Dun, Suoyang City, Yulin Grottoes, Shibao Grottoes, Hongliu Gorge and other cities are under the rule of Guasha, the roads are
It is extremely remote. If placed in the Central Plains, it would be equivalent to crossing the distance of several counties before you can see the population. If you want to quickly surrender and bring these places under your rule, you must rely heavily on the power of the major families that have withdrawn from the sand. They
I went to see the local pastoral officials and said hello and explained the current situation in Guasha, and then I could easily incorporate this place into the territory. If I relied on soldiers to fight, even if these places had no power to resist, they would rush back and forth and mobilize troops everywhere.
, it would be impossible to capture it within a year and a half, and a large number of troops would have to be stationed to defeat it. At this time, the role of the local big families came into play.
The military has undergone the greatest restructuring. The Guiyi Army has been completely reorganized, and the stronger ones have been incorporated into Ai Yihai's Flying Leopard Army, leaving Shazhou to guard Yumen Pass. In this way, the two Shagua states have become an inner city.
The remaining old and weak members of the Guiyi Army were incorporated into the city defense force and it was more than enough to serve as local defense.
In addition, Yang Hao also ordered people to post notices everywhere, recruiting warriors of all ethnic groups to join the army. The Guiyi Army could not afford to support so many troops, but Yang Hao used the proceeds from war to support war during the period of massive expansion.
He vigorously developed industry, commerce and farming, with Lingzhou as the center, relying on Helan Mountain and the water of the Yellow River, to develop a large grain and rice base, which could support the expenditure of expanding the army.
As for the need to repair and widen the original post roads, open up and build new ones to facilitate the exchange of people and horses, and establish post mail and beacon relays to ensure the transmission of military information and commercial transportation, we cannot start it for the time being, because there are still problems on the way.
Ganzhou must go back and pull out this nail before it can truly unblock the Hexi Corridor.
During this period, Yang Hao had constant exchanges of information with Xiazhou. Zhong Fang and Yang Jiye jointly reported the initiative to withdraw defenses and use Hengshan to establish a second line of defense. The plan to keep the Song army to the east of Hengshan was contrary to Yang Hao's imagination.
The conspiracy coincided, and Yang Hao was so confident that he not only did not punish him, but also ordered him to be rewarded.
The Song Army's original strategic deployment, military arrangements, and logistical supplies were all designed to occupy Fuzhou, contain Linzhou, and eliminate the enemies who came to help one by one. The Eastern Front troops got rid of Fuzhou, which had been eroded, and Lin, which had become a burden.
Prefecture, took the initiative to withdraw from Hengshan, carried out a major strategic shift, voluntarily abandoned the Linfu battlefield, and opened up a second line of defense with Hengshan axis and Luyin prefectures as points. This completely disrupted the arrangements of the Song army. Although it was retreating,
But it was the beginning of turning passivity into initiative and reversing the disadvantage. In this way, even if the Eastern Front failed to win, it could at least maintain the confrontation temporarily, buying precious time for Yang Hao's military operations in the Western Regions.
Before completing these arrangements and completely controlling the two states of Shagua, Yang Hao did not want to make public the news that the Song Dynasty sent troops to Linfu to attack him. However, with so many arrangements in all aspects, no matter how hard he worked day and night, they could not be accomplished overnight.
, He is really exhausted these days.
On this day, Yang Hao went to Yangguan to inspect the garrison defense. To the northwest of Dunhuang is Yumen Pass and to the southwest is Yangguan. Controlling these two great passes can ensure that Dunhuang will not be invaded by the Uighurs from the northwest and the Uighurs south of Guasha.
The deployment of all aspects of Sha Erzhou has been basically completed. Yang Hao is confident that he can still firmly control this place after he leaves. As long as he does not suffer a major defeat and cause a great loss of power after returning to the army, he can always maintain
Control over here.
Standing on the beacon of the ancient Great Wall, looking at the endless yellow sand of the desert, Yang Hao was thinking about returning to Xiazhou and unplugging Ganzhou and Huihe along the way. Mu En suddenly walked to him in a hurry and whispered something to him.
In this sentence, Yang Hao followed his gesture and looked back to the east, only to feel the glare of the sun. Yang Hao put his hand on the awning, squinted his eyes, and watched intently. When he saw the scene slowly appearing behind the sand dunes, he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Said: "How is that possible! What is that? A mirage?"
