Chapter 100 End of Volume

Autumn in the sixth year of Tianbao (747).

tail.

When the last acre of grain from the field was loaded into the treasury, Sun Xiurong finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Luntai City, the expanded exterior walls, as well as the military camps, grain warehouses, armorys, etc. of the outer city have been built, but most of the buildings in the city are still under construction.

Inner city, Bogdahan mansion.

"Grandmaster"

Zhang Han is reporting.

"Like Guizhou, the newly arrived 20,000 Gaochang people, with about 15,000 farmers, are all placed on the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, divided into five counties, Wuzai County, Zhangbao County, Lutai County, Beilu County, Pule County, and 3,000 households in each county."

"Due to the arrival of this group of people, the treasury could harvest a total of 500,000 stones of grain stored in the treasury, but in the end, only 300,000 stones were harvested. However, according to the current Dingkou area in Tingzhou, there are nearly 50,000 full-time farmers, and the tax grain paid by the tax fields is more than one million stones. If you purchase it from the treasury and farmers, there will always be one million.

"After the people from Gaochang Town came, the Grand Governor not only included some Dingkou into the craftsmen, but also selected three thousand elite Tang troops from them. After mixing with Shiwei Camp, Kumo Camp, Bogda Camp and Bogra Camp, a new camp was added, which was the Tianshan Camp named by the Grand Governor, and Suha served as the commander."

"So there were nine regular camps in the entire Tingzhou, with 27,000 people. According to the plan of the Grand Governor, a camp of 10,000 people consumed at least 80,000 stones of grain every year due to the needs of horses, and another forage. According to the 300,000 people, this is 270,000 stones. According to the estimate of 300,000 stones, plus the officials and craftsmen who need to support, they actually need 400,000 stones a year."

"At present, we lack money, some salary, servant money, and the salaries of the soldiers are all paid by the grain, so it doubled, that is, 800,000 stones. According to the plan for preparing for wasteland and preparing for disasters for one year, an additional 800,000 stones are needed. At present, the scale of tax fields for this farmer can barely reach this level."

"Enough", Sun Xiurong nodded, "It's enough to maintain this scale until the next five years. You can't reclaim the fields anymore. As soon as there is not much rain here, all of them need to be irrigated. After irrigating the river water everywhere, it will inevitably reduce the groundwater in the pasture, which will affect the growth of the pasture."

"That's not worth the loss. Apart from the regular camp, don't we have 27,000 agricultural and herdsmen? The number of regular camps seems to be different. One is fighting in the wild, the other is defending the heartland, nine camps, and with firearms, they can roughly resist twice the size of enemies."

"Haha, the sky is high and the earth is far away. The enemy comes from any direction. Fifty thousand people are already exhausted and the people are hurting money. One hundred thousand people? That is to exert the power of the country. Even if they are willing, they have to consider it. During the former Han Dynasty, the rule of Wen and Jing took two generations to lay the financial resources for Emperor Wu to send troops to Mobei on a large scale. If they were not confused, they would not launch a large-scale army within five years."

Zhang Han nodded and continued, "In Talas, after Gao Xianzhi withdrew his troops, although he returned to peace on the spot, his men burned, killed and robbed there. Although he retreated, the surrounding farmers had decreased by at least 30%, and the herdsmen were roughly the same, and the cattle and sheep were also reduced by countless losses."

"According to the plan of the Grand Commander, Li Fei Shouyu has been allowed to set up the Sui Ye Prefecture there, and he also served as the prefecture governor, with four counties under it. Not long ago, Li Fei Shouyu's army launched an attack, annihilated the Qumukun tribe around Rehai, and killed its chief Gudoro, completely including the Bogra tribe."

"So our army had the Dunduo Silver Mine that produced silver ingots. The silver ingots produced every year could barely meet the needs of the soldiers, craftsmen and officials who needed to pay salaries, salaries, servants, and officials. Xi Yuanli's people have taken over there now."

"According to your opinion, Li Feishouyu has been appointed as the prefect of Suiye County and Yuanfeng has also served as the prefect of Talas County."

"Suo Shijin, the chief of Hu Luju's army who was originally entrenched in Yili, completely surrendered to us after our army defeated the Tang army in succession, and wrote a letter to request that counties be set up there. At present, Suo Shijin is still the prefect of Yili County."

"As for Rehai County, Wu Duozuo, the leader of the original Mukun tribe who has been arranged to surrender to us, has been appointed as the leader of the Mukun tribe. According to the command of the Grand Governor, Hou Qi has been appointed as the governor of Rehai and has trained 3,000 regular Yemen in the Mukun tribe."

"In the eastern part of Rehai, there are many rivers that can still be planted, and a large amount of land can be planted. It has been urged that Hou Qi's troops will be reclaimed on the spot. When the land is reclaimed, it will be distributed to the Chumukun people who have been converted into farmers."

"As for other tribes, such as the Geshu tribe and the Axijie tribe, they still exist in the form of bans. By the way, the Saiye River Army lost in the last war has already allowed Li Fei Shouyu to pick up the farmers and herdsmen nearby, and there are still three camps there. With Hou Qi's Rehai camp, there are four camps, and with the palace soldiers, there are nearly 20,000 troops."

Sun Xiurong nodded and looked at Su Xijie again, "Tell me what's happening around you."

"Yes, the Grand Governor, the news came from Chang'an. Although the Grand Governor expressed his intention to serve as the Grand Governor of Beiting to him, there were still many different opinions from the court. It is said that there was no conclusion after a month of discussion. However, the Ministry of War did not order the gathering of people in Chang'an or Hexi. In any case, at least this year, most of them will not be dispatched."

"In the northern part of the Mo Dynasty, the court was very active. He married the royal princess to the new governor of the Ministry of the Cun, Pugu Huai'en, and also appointed him as the prince of the county, and also served as the general of the left Yulin Army. He also appointed him as the prince of the new leader of the ten Khitan tribes, Li Nili as the prince of the county, and the right Yulin General, and married him as the princess of the royal family."

"After the Grand Governor moved the essence of the monarch to the Western Regions, the Bohai Kingdom immediately withdrew from Liaodong, but also captured a large number of people to Huhan Prefecture. The imperial court took over Liaodong again and set up the Andong Protectorate in Andong, where the Pinglu Jiedushi also served as the Great Protectorate."

"As for the military governor Meng Lingcha of Fanyang, he was dismissed for his crime of "miss supervision". He was named the Censor and lived in Chang'an. In the end, An Lushan served as the military governor."

"After a series of defeats, the court moved about 100,000 households in Dingkou, which had no land near Chang'an and Luoyang to Andong, Hexi, Gaochang and other places respectively. The migration is still in progress. It is said that for this migration, in the capital, officials of the fifth rank and above in Shendu, each of whom had a family of nobles, barely made those people a journey."

"In the Anxi side, when our army was fighting with the Tang army, the Tubo people went out, but it was not the direction of Yutian Town, but the Tang army fought one after another around the Shicheng Castle near the West Sea. The Shicheng Castle is still in the hands of the Tubo people, and the two sides have a victory or defeat. It is said that the newly appointed Longyou Jiedushi Geshuhan has made a military order to recover the Shicheng Castle from the Holy Emperor."

"The stone castle is built on a mountain, and it is not easy to climb up with bare hands, let alone attacking. There are many military tactics, so attack them ten times, but there may be dozens of times the military force in the stone castle to be taken down."

"In the Uighurs, due to the complete defeat of the Gelu people in the Dahu area, Dingkou was moved by the Grand Commander to the vicinity of Tianshan Mountain, and naturally all of them were taken over by the Uighurs. In addition, they turned around and attached to them. Later, the remaining tribes of the Turkic tribes, the Uighurs are now the majority of Dingkou's more than 120,000 tents."

"Guli Peiluo died of illness. His eldest grandson Ye Hu succeeded to the throne. He was only seventeen years old and could barely stabilize the surrounding situation. However, he was unable to come to attack our army. After he came to power, he attached more importance to Manichi than his grandfather Guli Peiluo. He has ordered all the noble chiefs above centurions in the tribe to convert to this religion, otherwise he would be killed without mercy."

"As the Uighurs grow in the Great Lakes area, the Jaegas people, who were originally nomadic near Ubud Su Lake, withdrew from the area and returned to the Jianhe River Basin. In this way, there have been more Jaegas people near Zhaisangbo. Now, Nan Jiyun, in Yuyuling Camp in Jinshan County, has sent people to explain this matter many times."

"As for the Kimak people near Yibohai, they continued to migrate westward under the threat of Jiegas. Now, the Jiegas people have appeared intermittently north of Yibohai. Of course, some Yamaguchi Kalu people are also... "

Sun Xiurong nodded and stopped his further explanation of the action, "After our army occupied Tingzhou, in the Suyechuan River Basin, it was enough to defend Talas and Suye City. Let the three thousand regular troops of Ashibu City go north and set up a camp where the Khan of Kimak was stationed in the past. This place was named Suye North County, with Li Jincai serving as the garrison and serving as the prefect."

(This place is Galacanda in Kazakhstan in later generations)

"The three thousand regular troops first settled there, and then dispatched 2,000 households from the Gongyue tribe, the Huselo tribe, the Geluo tribe, and the Shesti tribe to come here to nomadic people and incorporate them into the Bogra tribe. Well, Sahalian of the Gongyue tribe serves as the tribe leader."

"Forget it, after each department is in place, let the Saha Company draw another two thousand households as herders' soldiers."

Su Xijie continued: "The Zhaowu countries in the south are showing signs of division."

"oh?"

"The Abu**** I mentioned before actually became a climate. It has begun to incite the people to oppose the rule of white-clothed food in the south of the Pearl River, and also occupied Mulu City. In this way, the white-clothed food in the entire Pearl River basin will not have the energy to manage the Zhaowu countries and turn all their attention to Mulu City."

(Mulu City, later generations of Mare, Turkmenistan)

"Under this situation, the Zhaowu countries became active again. Of course, they were naturally still at both ends of the rat, and they almost paid tribute to the Dashi and the Tang Dynasty and us. Relatively speaking, because the Great Cannibals forced them to convert to the Dashi and the Tang officials exploited them too much, they seemed to have greater determination to give us sincerity."

When he said this, Su Xijie secretly looked at Sun Xiurong. Although his eyes were closed at the moment, his right eyelid still blew when he heard this. Su Xijie seemed to understand something.

"Ahem, after the second princess of Shi Kingdom Jin Si Kaiya married the former general of our army, Geshu Minu, he had given birth to a daughter and a son. Because of his high martial arts skills, he was also a backbone of the Zoroastrianism, and he also held important tasks in the Saiye Army. He soon played an important role in Shi Kingdom. Now the Shi Kingdom is divided into three parts."

"The place near Baishui City is under the jurisdiction of the king's prince's chariot. The capital Zhezhe City is naturally under the jurisdiction of the king. In the south of the country, near Shiguo and Bahanna, it is under the jurisdiction of Geshuminu. Because it has to face the white-clothed cannibals, Geshuminu actually has the most military power, and he used the military training method of the Grand Commander and the combat power is also the strongest."

(Zhezhecheng, later Tashkent; Baishuicheng, later Chimkent, Kazakhstan)

"Ge Shu Minu and the Chebis are not in a relationship in private. Now it's a big worry in Shiguo..."

This volume "Cancan Rao Leshui" has finally ended. Five years have passed in a flash, but Sun Xiurong did not go to the junta in vain. Not only did he strengthen his own strength, but he also captured a large number of tribes and talents.

After taking down Beiting, he had a solid base with both advance and retreat, which is inconvenient to explain in detail here.

But his challenge is still quite large.

To the east, the Tang Dynasty is still famous. To the west, the destruction of white-clothed food and food is just around the corner. The era of black-clothed food and food is coming suddenly. The famous Abu.**** was to unify the Amu River Basin and would definitely come into contact with the Sai Ye Army. Any emerging dynasty must be a time of hard work and promising. The pressure on the Sai Ye Army was quite heavy.

Also, Sun Xiurong worked hard to return to the Western Regions again, naturally not for this land. He had a longer-term goal, and that was the ultimate goal, and the Western Regions were just one of the springboards.
