Chapter VII: The Western Crusade of the Anti-Thieves

Ngawang planned to build a palace and a scripture reading field in Yushan.

For this reason, Yun Zhao is ready to blow up the screen mountain opposite the Moon Peak, which has been blown up!

In the past, it was planned to expand the Martial Arts Research Institute, but now it seems that it will be close to the Buddhist temple first.

The Martial Arts Research Institute can be built anywhere Yun Zhao wants, and the Buddhist temple is different, people require high terrain, good scenery, and splendor, which is not careless at all.

Yun Zhao used to think that Uszang was a poor place, but when Ngawang once again took out 10,000 taels of gold to build a temple, Yun Zhao changed the deep-rooted concept of Uszang's poverty.

The bluestone of Pingfeng Mountain has been almost stripped away, so the craftsmen have made dozens of big holes in the mountain.

Today, these large holes are filled with gunpowder, which is hoped to flatten the hill completely.

On the day of the bombing, Ngawang also came, and he was dressed in costume, and he offered to light the gunpowder himself, which Yun Zhao naturally agreed.

So, in a clearing, Ngawang first sat under the sun and chanted, then opened his arms, as if to tell the sky something, and then, with a loud bang, the screen mountain collapsed.

Rocks pierce the air...... It was very dangerous, but Ngawang didn't care at all, standing in the open space and not caring at all about the flying rocks, as if the mountain really collapsed after he gently waved his palm.

Yun Zhao hid in the bunker and watched in horror, but Ngawang was miraculously unharmed, it seems that sometimes, if a person wants to be a leader or something, he really needs good luck.

For another person, such as Han Lingshan, a person who likes to cause trouble, has long been smashed into meat sauce by rocks.

Most of the rocks in Pingfeng Mountain fell to the bottom of the cliff, and the people could use these earth and stones to build a pond weir at the bottom of the mountain.

The disappearance of the screen mountain has nothing to do with the craftsmen who worked hard to dig stones, dig holes, and charge medicines, and everyone is praising the powerful power of Ngawang Lama and opening up a pure land for Tibetan Buddhism in the Central Plains.

The students in Yushan felt that this matter was very nonsense, and after being reprimanded by Mr. by his ears, he stopped talking nonsense.

The people also thought that this matter was very nonsense, but when they met their own parents, they saw the smiling expressions of their elders, so they didn't say anything anymore. Especially the family that deals in bricks and tiles, as well as the family related to construction, dare to say that the Buddha will not be beaten.

After all, people spent 10,000 taels of gold, and everything is right.

The people of Guanzhong are so honest and simple.

When Ngawang came to Guanzhong, the herdsmen of Qinghai no longer attacked the caravans transporting salt in Lantian County.

Gushi Khan, who was hostile to Lantian in the past, also sent people to Chang'an for the first time to offer tribute such as cattle, sheep, and agate.

The Ming Dynasty implemented the policy of "splitting the land and dividing the lords, so as to defend themselves", that is to say, the people in the Hehuang area only knew the tribal leaders, and the power of the tribal leaders was extremely great, and they could be called the local soil emperors.

Ngawang was an extremely intelligent man, and his arrival in Guanzhong was a sign that the Usti Tibetans had abandoned Qinghai, which they had always wanted to rule but could not do, and left the stubborn enemy of Gushi Khan to Yunzhao.

In his opinion, after Yun Zhao's soldiers and horses unified Xiningwei, it should be a few years later, and at that time, there will be a new development in the situation in the Central Plains.

And the snowy plateau, it is almost impossible for outsiders to get in, even when the Han people are the strongest, the snowy plateau is still a forbidden area for them.

The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is too important to the land of China, the source of the three rivers, and there is no room for loss here.

In the hearts of Han Lingshan, Duan Guoren, and Zhang Guozhu, the map is flat, but in Yun Zhao's eyes, the map is definitely not a plane, but a dynamic map of undulating terrain.

Ngawang stayed in Guanzhong for a month and a half before leaving Guanzhong, and he also left behind a group of lamas to communicate with Lantian County on commercial matters.

Yun Zhao agreed to set up a tea and horse division in Qin, Tao, and Hezhou prefectures, specifically exchanging tea for horses in Xining, Hezhou, Taozhou, Ganzhou, and other places.

This is basically good governance.

At this time, the demand for horses in Lantian County was not very strong, and after most of Mongolia was incorporated into the Lantian system, they did not lack horses at all.

It was only for the sake of the fact that the Hezhou horse was taller and more burly than the Mongolian horse, so he opened this opening.

With the arrival of Ngawang, there are many more things in Lantian County, one Wusizang has changed, and the western border to which Lantian County belongs must have new changes, among which the trouble is the Hexi Corridor.

Xining Wei Yunzhao is determined to win, so the issue of taking Xining Wei, Wuwei, Zhangye, Jiuquan, Dunhuang, and Yumen in the Hexi Corridor is on Yunzhao's table.

Today, these regions are still under the rule of Gushi Khan.

Yun Zhao disagreed with the old fettering policy of "splitting the land and dividing the lords and keeping to themselves", and he even despised this policy of raising tigers for trouble.

In his opinion, if a country wants to really own a place, it should send officials and troops, implement uniform laws, implement unified policies, and collect the same amount of taxes, so that the land can be said to belong to the country.

Therefore, Gushi Khan's rule in Qinghai and the Hexi Corridor has basically come to an end.

Duan Guoren was very interested in this kind of thing, insisting that no one in this world knew the Hexi Corridor and the Western Regions better than him, insisted on leaving Lantian City, and led a group of 50,000 regimental training regiments from Ningxia, Tianshui, and even Guanzhong to the Hexi Corridor to establish the supreme meritorious feat that Huo Qubing could only establish back then.

In order to satisfy Duan Guoren's desire to make meritorious contributions, Yun Zhao transferred more than 200 grassroots officers from Gao Jie's army to Duan Guoren, and at the same time, he also transferred 3,000 cavalry from Li Dingguo's army to Duan Guoren.

On the day of April, when the seedlings were half a foot high, Duan Guoren left Lantian City and went to Lanzhou to start his journey to the west.

It's going to be a long process......

It's not how difficult the battle here is, it's that it's a long road, and no one knows where Duan Guoren's ultimate goal will be.

"Don't rush in!" Yun Zhao once again told Duan Guoren.

"Get me a really good piece of jade back." Han Lingshan seriously asked Duan Guoren.

"Get me a wife back!" Zhang Guozhu felt that his life's major events should be considered.

"The two thousand prisoners who were allotted to you should be used in death, and they should not be given face." Qian Shaoshao was happy in his heart to push all the scum to Duan Guoren.

"When I come back, I will definitely give you a stable northwest, a rich northwest."

Duan Guoren waved his hand proudly and rode away, followed by two hundred and seventy-seven graduates of Yushan Academy.

There were many people who bid farewell to Duan Guoren's expedition to the west, including Xia Wanchun, Mu Tiantao and Zhu Yujiao.

Seeing Duan Guoren leave Yushan City with his entourage and last year's graduates, Xia Wanchun's hands trembled with excitement, he had already begged his master countless times, and wanted to follow Duan Guoren to the west, but Yun Zhao refused.

Seeing the heroic scene in front of him, Xia Wanchun couldn't help it, pointed to the backs of Duan Guoren and the others who were far away, and shouted to his companions: "The supreme meritorious service of the eldest husband is today, do you want to go?" ”

Yun Zhan's square face also turned red, and he patted the trunk of the tree next to him and said, "Naturally, I want to go!" ”

"Let's go!"

Xia Wanchun jumped on the crown prince with a tiger jump, and took four or five classmates straight to the stables of Yushan Academy, this time, he felt that he would participate in this great westward expedition no matter what.

Mu Tiantao's chest rose and fell, his hands were clenched into fists, his face was red, and it could be seen that he desperately wanted to chase Duan Guoren with Xia Wanchun, but his footsteps never moved.

"Do you want to help these thieves?" Zhu Yujiao's voice trembled slightly, and somehow, she felt that Duan Guoren's group of people would definitely succeed in their westward expedition.

Mu Tiantao took a long breath and said: "This is the Western Expedition - this is the expansion of the territory - that man doesn't have the idea of "sealing the wolf Juxu" in his heart? ”

Zhu Yujiao grabbed Mu Tiantao's sleeve and said, "But they are anti-thieves." ”

Mu Tiantao said with a smile: "That is the western expedition of the anti-thief, I want to do such a anti-thief." ”

"You are not a thief, you are the son of King Mu's mansion."

Mu Tiantao said: "The iron hooves of the Ming Dynasty reached Hami as far as possible, and then they never left Jiayuguan again. ”

"Will they be able to go further?"

Mu Tiantao said: "You didn't listen to Duan Guoren's lecture, if you listened, you will know that Duan Guoren's goal is the edge of the sky." ”

"They can't go that far."

"Of course, materials, grain, guns, all limit their journey, but it doesn't matter, they can eat the enemy when necessary, hahaha, thousands of troops out of the Tianshan Mountains...... Out of the Heavenly Mountains!

I'm going to get some food and drinks, and we're going to have a drink today! ”

After speaking, without waiting for Zhu Yujiao to raise objections, he dragged Zhu Yujiao's hand and went straight to the college cafeteria.

His hands were hot, and Zhu Yujiao wanted to scold Mu Tiantao for his rudeness, but her heart softened inexplicably, and she let him drag him to the academy cafeteria.

Liang Ying naturally found that Zhu Yujiao was dragged away by Mu Tiantao, she was responsible, so she naturally wanted to follow, but she was not in a hurry at all, this Mu Tiantao, who was used to being shy, finally grabbed Zhu Yujiao's white wrist and ran away in front of everyone.

Now, besides, the two of them have no adultery, and the ghosts don't believe it.

Mu Tiantao's blood is surging up today, and the little bit of etiquette in his heart is probably gone, so don't drink some wine and do something else......

Thinking of this, Liang Ying shouted, "Wait for me." ”

Then he slowly followed towards the academy cafeteria.

The master master of the academy cafeteria has long been accustomed to the appearance of young people's enthusiasm, which is not unusual in the academy at all.

Therefore, when Mu Tiantao took away the half-boiled pig's head, he was not angry at all, and happily hung up the account for Mu Tiantao, and also gave half a pot of freshly fried peanuts.

This thing has only been cultivated on a large scale for three years, and it is also a precious thing, but there are many people who drink alcohol today, so he got some more.

Mu Tiantao, a young man, is very polite and likable on weekdays, and he is still dragging a beautiful little girl in his hand, so the master decided to help this little guy one more time.

He took out a jar of thick wine from under the table and said, "You are young, you are not allowed to drink alcohol in the academy, drink some of this." ”

For the excited Mu Tiantao, everything he drank at this time was wine, so he sandwiched a jar of thick wine next door, and smiled at the master: "Thank you!" ”
