The administrative office of the Qinfeng Luyanbian Appeasement Division is located in Weiyuan, and the Qingping Fort is located in Xizhou.
Officials also had their own ideas. Didao during the Three Kingdoms period, which is now Xizhou, was a battleground for military strategists.
During Jiang Wei's eleven Northern Expeditions, he sent troops to Didao many times to unite the Qiang people here to fight against the Wei army.
When Deng Ai destroyed Shu, he also sent troops from Didao to attack Jiang Wei who was in Tazhong. Opening the border at Xizhou can better connect Sichuan and Shu with Qinfeng Road. This is the long-term plan.
However, Yuantu must be supported by strength. The official said: "With the establishment of a market exchange in Xihe and the expedition against Mu Zheng, does Dong Fei have a chance of winning?"
Wu Chong said: "I observed Zhang Yue and saw that everything Wang Shao had done was in order. Although Mu Zheng was a major member of the Tibetan tribe, his power was the weakest. Mu Zheng was the first, followed by Dong Felt, and the troops were used in sequence. The homeland of the Han and Tang Dynasties could be obtained.
, the Han people who changed their Tibetan customs in the past can also return to China!"
The official nodded and said, "I'm just afraid that the expedition will go too far and I will order Mu Zheng and Dong Felt to defect to Xixia."
Wu Chong said: "If it were Li Yuanhao or Li Liangzuo, they would not dare to do this. But now that the Liang brothers and sisters control the government, they will at most be given status and will not send out any soldiers."
Everyone looked at Wu Chong, this was because he had a good father-in-law in the court.
In another history of time and space, those who supported the opening of Xihe River were Wang Anshi, Wang Yu and his son. Although Wu Chong was an ally of Wang Anshi, he held an opposing attitude. Now for the sake of his son-in-law, Wu Chong has changed his position.
With Wu Chong's endorsement, the matter was settled.
As for part of Lanzhou and all of Huizhou, they are temporarily called Huizhou.
Therefore, Qin Feng Road's appeasement division has a total of Xizhou, Huizhou, and Tongyuan armies, a total of two states and one army.
Among them, Xizhou takes Zhentao as its military division.
The establishment of the Yisi in Xihe was also approved, and the officials also provided 500,000 yuan from the internal treasury as the capital of the Yisi.
After the preparation is agreed upon, the following is the reward.
At this time, Wen Yanbo said: "I heard that Wang Shao's troops in the ancient Wei Festival and the excessive killings during this expedition have requested your majesty to order Wang Shao to stop the killings and focus on recruiting the Tibetan tribes. I would like to reward him generously for fear that all the border generals will imitate him. It is not your majesty.
The virtue of living well.”
After hearing this, the officials said: "That's what I said. If we don't use troops and horses to fight against the enemy, the Tibetan people will not be able to obey."
Wen Yanbo added: "Wang Shao and Zhang Yue established the state in ancient Wei. Although they achieved great success, they should not overpower the generals. Although these two men were civil servants and loyal to Your Majesty, they did not have any worries. However,
The ancestral system came before Wang Shao, who knew that the Tibetan sentiments could not be easily separated. I asked Zhang Yue to return to the capital, just in time to realize his reward and reward the meritorious officials."
The official nodded when he heard what Wen Yanbo said, but Wu Chong didn't say anything. He thought that even if Zhang Yue returned to Beijing, with Wang Shao by his side, it would still be okay for his contributions. Moreover, he would like to see Zhang Yue return to Beijing and receive an award.
.
But he was under suspicion about this matter, so it was difficult to talk about it.
As a result, Wang Anshi came out and said: "Your Majesty, I think this is impossible."
The officials also had the idea of bringing Zhang Yue back, and wanted to use Wen Yanbo's words to approve the matter. Unexpectedly, Wang Anshi came out to oppose it.
Wang Anshi said: "Your Majesty, after Zhang Yue was demoted to Qinzhou Tongju, he was away for only half a year. He was transferred back to the capital in a hurry. I think it is inappropriate."
Wen Yanbo glanced at Wang Anshi and smiled slightly.
He had known that Wang Anshi had a grudge against Zhang Yue, so it was reasonable for him to object.
That's right, it was Wang Anshi who demoted Zhang Yue because of the Tai students' trouble, and now it's Wang Anshi who doesn't agree with Zhang Yue's return to Beijing.
Wang Anshi said: "Famous ministers and good generals must be trained in the state department. Which important minister of this dynasty has not served as a local official for more than ten years and has sufficient qualifications and experience before returning to the capital to serve as an official."
"Zhang Yue has made great achievements this time and can make up for his previous mistakes, but hastily transferring him back to the capital is not the way for the imperial court to appoint officials."
When the officials saw Wang Anshi's objection, they also knew the other party's temperament. Since they had said that they wanted to refute him, the other party would definitely be unhappy.
So the official said: "Then Wang Qing means to let Zhang Yue continue to stay in Xizhou Tongyuan Army."
Wang Anshi said: "Your Majesty clearly knows that this is the case. Besides, there is still Gao Zunyu in Qinfeng Road, so there is no need to send people to control it."
Wen Yanbo said: "Wang Shao was recommended by Zhang Yue. If he is colluding, what will happen?"
"Your Majesty, when Emperor Taizong used the army, he often gave secret plans to the generals, which is not as much as Taizu. Taizu knew the generals well and trusted them, so he was able to gain his strength. For example, in those days, someone slandered General Guo Jin for treason, and Taizu rebelled against the general.
The person who made the false accusation was explained to Guo Jin. This was because he believed in him, so everyone in the generals was willing to contribute."
Wang Anshi said: "I thought that the general should do the same when he is away from home."
…
Weiyuan Fort in early May.
At this time, the climate in Qing and Tang Dynasties has become much warmer, and the soldiers of the Song Army have already changed into summer clothes.
The large-scale war against Xixia has just ended, and until the anti-autumn period in August and September, this period can be regarded as peaceful days.
However, Zhang Yue and Wang Shao did not slack off and led their troops to fight back.
Ping Xice has already offered it. Regardless of whether the officials agree or not, the Weiyuan Fort must be built. If the officials agree, then another Qingping Fort will be built to form a horn with the Weiyuan Fort.
At this moment, Zhang Yue and Wang Shao were supervising the construction of Weiyuan Fort and did not dare to delay for a moment.
After the Northern Expedition to the Western Xia Dynasty last year, Weiyuan Fort was not rebuilt because the soil was frozen. Now that the soil has completely thawed since the beginning of spring, the city was built here.
Since we need civilians to build a city, except for farming, we need to bring in soldiers and civilians to farm.
Both of these tasks require a large number of people. Last year, Wang Shao's construction of the city and field settlement did not go smoothly because of insufficient manpower. Qin Fenglu's several strategic and pacifying envoys and Wang Shao did not deal with it, so they sent very few servants.
When the civil servants from Qinzhou could not come, Wang Shao seconded civilian servants to Longzhou and Weizhou, which were further away. However, due to the location of Tongwei Village, it might take a hundred days for the civilian servants to go back and forth, so most of them
No one wants to come.
Therefore, when the city was built last year, there were only civilian services and troops, and the progress was very slow. But it is different now. Zhang Yue and Wang Shao captured thousands of people in this expedition, and now they are building cities and farming in Weiyuan.
Because we have manpower, everything is easier to handle.
Wang Shao bought land for cultivation from the Tibetan people nearby, and at the same time sent troops and horses to stand ready to prevent Mu Zheng from suddenly leading his army over Mobang Mountain and harassing the Song army to build a city.
Seeing that the civil service was busy and the city was being strengthened day by day, Zhang Yue and Wang Shao were in better and better moods, and from time to time they discussed the issue of how to get their rewards.
On this day, they saw a group of people coming from far away in the Weishui River Valley.
"It's Guo Kui, the general manager of Qin Feng Road's military and horse capital!"
The two of them wondered what Guo Kui was doing all the way here?
The two men immediately brought more than a dozen horses to greet them. When Guo Kui saw the two men coming, he stopped his horse at a distance and showed off his airs.
After the two met Guo Kui, Guo Kui smiled and said to Zhang Yue: "Sheren, the reward from the imperial court has come. Congratulations. You see, although the edict is still on the way, the official document has already been spread throughout Qinzhou.
The city, the entire Qinfeng Road."
After Guo Kui finished speaking, he stroked his beard and laughed.
Zhang Yue looked at the official document and it said:
He moved to Qinzhou to judge the military affairs, and he was the right to advise. When the Tianzhang Pavilion was to be made, Zhang Yue became the doctor of the Ministry of Rites, and the Longtuge was to be made, and he knew the military affairs of Xizhou.
