Zhu Di sat in Xi'an and actively prepared for the war.

But he never imagined that the problem would appear behind the scenes-since October, the letters of the acting king have been one after another...... There are all kinds of talents, officials who can manage the area, accountants who can clear the fields, craftsmen who have a skill, and even merchants and teachers...... This guy is like he's urging him to do anything.

Zhu Di was worried that he wanted to blackmail himself for a while, and then turned around and ran. However, the secret agent who followed the army passed the news to Zhu Di and told him that Zhu Gui, the acting king, was indeed fighting, and he had gone crazy!

That's right!

It's crazy!

Zhu Gui once established a vassal in Datong.

In history, Datong also has a name, called Yunzhou, Beiping is also called Youzhou, which is also the famous Youyun Sixteen Prefectures, also called Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures.

From the time of the Jin Dynasty after five generations, it fell into the hands of the Khitan, and the two thieves who betrayed the land of Yanyun at that time were one was Emperor Shi Jingjiao, and the other was Sang Weihan...... It's been 500 years!

After Zhu Gui arrived in Datong, he faced barbarians everywhere, and he tried his best to appease the tribe and divide and win over. As a result, these guys still rebelled from time to time, which made Zhu Guiren's brain hurt, and he thought hard about it, but there was no way.

The reason is very simple, he has always focused on those upper echelons.

He thought about winning over a tribal leader, and the people below would be obedient, but the problem was that the tribal leaders were all powerful people, how could they be so easy to be co-opted.

These guys have gone through countless wars, and they have long been cultivated to King Kong is not bad, and they will turn their faces when they say that they will turn their faces, and there is absolutely no faith to talk about.

Because in these five hundred years of turmoil, the good guys have been eliminated.

Zhu Gui was desperate for a while...... But he finally found a solution!

All along, everyone was wrong.

What do you care about those at the top?

Instead of buying and co-opting some unfamiliar white-eyed wolves, it is better to start from the bottom...... No matter where it is, whether it is nomadic or farming.

The vast majority of the people are just seeking food and clothing.

As long as they give them their land and pastures, and collect a small tax, they will be able to feed themselves and live well!

After discovering this secret, Zhu Gui almost wanted to slap his two mouths.

Such a simple matter, if he had found out earlier, maybe he would have taken the lead in Fengtianjing today!

It's really regretful, but even if he works for Zhu Di, Zhu Gui is willing.

And he has been swept up in the tide, so he can only go with the flow.

Every time he completes the division of the field, many young people will join, some of them will serve as people's husbands, some will act as guides, and some will simply join the army, carrying a saber, and they will do it with Zhu Gui!

These ordinary serfs and slaves know a reason, if the old man makes a comeback, they will only be more miserable. In that case, let's strike first!

With the support of hundreds of people, Zhu Gui is like a bamboo, and the only thing he needs to worry about is that there are not enough talents, which will affect the progress of the field division, and thus the speed of the march.

Three full months have passed, Zhu Gui has killed all the way to Guazhou, which is the western end of the Hexi Corridor, in other words, the entire Hexi Corridor, this time it is really included in the territory!

Zhu Gui jumped down like a child, held the sand, threw it into the air, and screamed madly, and his subordinates also followed the prince, pulling their necks and roaring.

Zhu Gui shouted tired and sat on the sand...... "Do you know? Feng Sheng, the Duke of Song Guo, hit here back then, but Feng Sheng failed to hold it! He retreated! ”

Zhu Gui grinned, "We are better than Song Guogong!" Did you hear it, we surpassed Song Guogong! Exceeded! I, Zhu Gui, am not a waste! I am a famous general, a famous general who can surpass the fourth brother! ”

This guy is like a madman, and his mouth is full of crazy words.

Not surprisingly, these words were sent to Zhu Di.

After reading the secret report, Zhu Di just smiled dumbly and handed it to Liu Chun.

Liu Chun glanced at it a few times, and suddenly sighed: "The prince really has the wisdom to know people, and this time he used the three kings to promote Juntian, which is really a wonderful move." ”

Zhu Di shook his head and said: "It's not the wisdom of knowing people, but empathy!" ”

Liu Chun touched his nose, indeed, Zhu Di is also a vassal king, and he is also the most outstanding one, of course he knows the thoughts of the other brothers.

"Although this vassal king is noble, only he knows how many grievances he has." Zhu Di was emotional, and his voice was a little hoarse.

became a vassal king, he could only be trapped in a city, and the only opportunity to go out was to enter Beijing to congratulate, but unfortunately the route to Beijing had already been planned, not that they had the final say, how much time to stay in Beijing, but also to listen to the arrangement of the Ministry of Rites, just like a marionette.

Because of his military power, the king had to be responsible for defending against foreign enemies, so he had more authority and higher status. But the problem is how bitter the nine sides are! In many places, there are not even many Han people, and as princes, they have to build cities, build mansions, train troops, and fight wars in a desolate situation...... has to endure the criticism and attacks of the courtiers, and it is strange that life can be better.

This is nothing, the most important thing is to become a vassal king, and this life is basically over.

Not only in this life, but also in the next life, in the next life......

"After all, the vassal king is also a human being, and he has to prove himself." Zhu Di chuckled and said: "The vassal kings are not short of food and clothing, although they care about their own interests, but if there is an opportunity to show their talents and go down in history, they will never let it go." As long as they see the benefits of changing the law, they will work harder than anyone else! ”

Liu Chun nodded in agreement.

Indeed, the vassal kings are such a group of freaks.

Each of them has excess energy, financial resources, and power...... Some people use it to do good deeds, such as Zhu Hu, the king of Zhou, who wrote medical books to help the people. Of course, more vassal kings are doing evil, fish and flesh people, such as King Qi, King Lu and so on......

The vassal king is not born a bad person, the key depends on how to guide and use it.

No, Zhu Gui, the acting king, returned to Xi'an with the majesty of a great victory.

This guy rode a tall and divine horse, sat on it, majestic and proud, and accepted the welcome of the military and civilians.

Behind Zhu Gui, there was a huge cavalry team, many of whom didn't even have armor, but they were indeed the cavalry of the Ming Dynasty!

"Fourth brother, we are developed!"

Zhu Gui was impatient and expressed his merit to Zhu Di, "These days, I have eradicated a total of 73 large and small tribes, villages, and wealthy clans. "He didn't brag, because many of them are small places, and they can be solved by sending a few people over and without fighting. Of course, if you don't have a broom, the dust won't go by itself. Of course, the credit must be recorded in Zhu Gui's name.

"A total of more than 7,800 people were killed, including thugs! Let more than 250,000 people and slaves get the fields and pastures, and also get the cattle and sheep that belong to them! ”

The more Zhu Gui spoke, the higher his voice became excited, because the really important things were behind!

Through Juntian, there are more than 15,000 young people of all ethnic groups who took the initiative to join the army, which is still the result of strict control, otherwise it will not be difficult to pull up 50,000 cavalry.

Then there are war horses and livestock, which is also very lacking in Zhu Di, and Zhu Gui got more than 10,000 war horses...... Zhu Di has always been known for commanding cavalry.

He was finally able to pull up the cavalry.

"Thirteenth brother, you have made a great contribution!"

Zhu Gui smiled reservedly, "It was the fourth brother who let the younger brother show his skills, and the younger brother is grateful!" By the way, fourth brother, the younger brother also seized a few copies of this thing, fourth brother, take a look! ”

Zhu Di took it, this is a farewell, a certificate for appointing as a court official......

"This is from Zhu Yunwen?"

"That's right!"

Zhu Gui said: "Fourth brother, in order to deal with us, the junior actually promised these barbarian leaders to make them officials and let them stay on the side of the town!" Do you say that people are angry? ”

Zhu Di took a closer look, and it was indeed as Zhu Gui said.

"Hahaha...... Our nephew is really interesting, he wants to cut the domain, and he actually canonized the local official! He really didn't take his father's ancestral training seriously! Zhu Di gritted his teeth in anger, he groaned slightly, and immediately asked Zhu Gui to wait here.

Quickly walked to the inner room and threw the things to Yoo Chun.

"Let's see!"

After Liu Chun read it, he was not surprised, Zhu Yunwen and those people around him, there are not many gentlemen, there are many villains, for the sake of the purpose, there is nothing that he dare not do!

"Lord Wang, we can finally make a big article!" Liu Chun couldn't help but be overjoyed, his eyes rolled, and he said with a smile: "Lord Wang, you sent a messenger to Taimiao to offer Rui to the first emperor with good news, and said that the Hexi Corridor had been restored, how about it?" ”

Zhu Di instantly understood what Liu Chun meant, this is a slap in the face!

couldn't help but regret and said: "This trick is indeed a temple, I'm just worried that Zhu Yunwen may not let the envoy enter Beijing!" ”
