6. New layout in the northwest

He pointed out that this time I Tang took advantage of the exhaustion of Xifan, in one fell swoop, to destroy the main force of Xifan, the six Rubenli of the plateau, Laru and Sun Boru are basically equal to extinction, and the military strength of Zampu has been greatly attenuated, so there has been no major war on the entire Longyou and Hexi lines since then, and my Tang light cavalry traveled thousands of miles, all the way to recover more than ten states, and regained Hehuang and Hexi to their own. However, the financial investment is also very amazing, before and after the cost of nearly 10 million yuan, in addition, Xibo is a big country after all, although it suffered a loss of muscles and bones, but I Tang does not have the strength to exhaust its nest, if the war continues, it will only cause a heavy burden to the world. Therefore, it is better to rest the army for a few years, open a mutual market, so that the newly recovered border towns can grow and rest, and when the time is ripe, it is not too late to destroy some cities in one fell swoop.

"Well, I have understood the discussion of stopping the army, so how to prepare for the side?"

Gao Yue said: "In fact, for the time being, giving Liangzhou to Mu Di Zampu and Shang Jiezan is not a bad thing for me Tang, but it will help to prepare for the border in Helong." ”

"Oh, I want to hear about it."

"Since Emperor Taizong and Emperor Gaozong, I Tang and Xifan surround Anxi, Helong, the war is endless, Xifan is long in fast horses, looting, coming and going like the wind, often I Tang gathered troops and horses to go to the conquest, it has already gone thousands of miles away, I Tang is tired of coping, can only build a military city, Ming Fengwei, build a strong crossbow, relying on the key points of defense, with the military town, the Governor's Mansion as the garrison area, the imperial court again sent the official health, the Long March and other opportunities to discuss, but on the whole it is still passively coped, taking the Hehuang garrison as an example, first subordinated to the Liangzhou Governor's Mansion, and then subordinate to the Lanzhou Governor's Mansion, In the end, it belongs to the Shanzhou Governor's Mansion, and every time it is moved, it is not the West that attacks first, and I will adjust the defense area after the Tang Dynasty. Now Liangzhou belongs to Mu Di, and Mu Di was left in Shancheng by the ministers, if I Tang do not need to garrison troops in Liangzhou for the time being, if necessary, I can also get reinforcements from Liangzhou Mu Di, if you can concentrate on holding the important place of Xifan in and out of Helong, you can save troops to recruit, which is also Your Majesty's foresight and wisdom, and the strength to override public opinion, canonize Mu Di. ”

Hearing the latter sentence, the emperor suddenly felt that the decisions he had made in the past few years were all wise and martial.

Although he doesn't remember very clearly, when he canonized Mu Di as Zampu, how he "overrode public opinion".

At this time, the emperor shook his hand very humbly and motioned for Gao Yue to continue.

Gao Yue pointed to the map and said: "Anxi, Beiting, according to the views of the ministers, the local Han army and official system are still complete, plus the kings of the four kingdoms of Qiuzi, Shule, Yanqi, and Khotan, are still loyal to our Tang Dynasty, so the best change is not to change." ”

"But Guo Xin is blind and old, and he has asked to return to his hometown."

"The envoy of the Anxi capital can be taken over by his younger brother Guo Hui, and the envoys of the four towns will remain unchanged. The North Courtyard is the envoy of the festival, and Yang Xigu is the envoy, and the envoys of the towns and garrisons in various places are also unchanged. ”

"The remaining four Liang, Gansu, Shagua and four prefectures in Hexi, but there is no Liangzhou, how to resettle?"

"Grant the Yan Dynasty Hexi Jingluo Jiedu envoy, Doulu military envoy and Yingtian envoy who adhered to Dunhuang, so that they can guard Shazhou and choke the three roads of the Western Regions; Subsequently, Shatuo Zhu Xie and Hun Murong, the Khan's title remained unchanged, and the migrating tribesmen went to Gan and Su, and Ye Shiliangbi and Sibo Daye, who were born in the Dangqiang, were respectively named county dukes, and the migrating tribesmen were sent to Guazhou, each by the side of the city; Immediately, a total of 19,000 generals and archers of the Xuanwei Army were stationed in the Ganzhou Military City and camped in the field. ”

"Where's Longyou?"

Gao Yue's suggestion was to simply abolish the Longyou Jiedu envoy and adjust the entire garrison area in western Beijing, specifically: set up a special Shanhuang Jiedu envoy, and use the Shence Weirong Army to move the 21,000 generals and archers in the original establishment to this camp and garrison, and the defense area is Shan, Kuo, and Hezhou, focusing on the construction of the three military cities of Shancheng's original Heyuan Army, Lintao, and Jishi; In addition, a special Hechuan Festival envoy was set up to win the military festival with divine strategy, and the 22,000 generals and archers in its original establishment moved to Tao, Min, Die, and Tang four prefectures to camp and garrison.

According to Gao Yue's introduction, the original three Shence armies in western Beijing are equivalent to the field army in the direction of Helong, and the original Shanshui Zhai forces of the Fan Han Dynasty, Gao Yue suggested that they should not make any changes and punishments, and still let them be scattered on the land of Helong, "according to the dangers of the mountains and rivers, each of them is protected and self-reliant", and at the same time give the owners of the village "letter hats", exempt the villagers from taxes and miscellaneous labor, and only need to give one-fifth of the market price every year, in accordance with the quota issued and the book, sell it to the garrison troops in various states for food, or transport horses, and then go up to some loose military trumpets, For example, the Xiongqi Army, the White Water Army, the Sanshui Army, etc., in fact, they only have names and no actual military government offices.

In short, Gao Yue's policy towards Shanshui Zhai was to give them autonomous powers, at the expense of taxes, in exchange for their military services.

In addition to the three Shence armies and the original Hexi Doulu Army or the Anxi Four Towns Army, the "military presence" of our Tang Dynasty in the Helong and Western Regions regions, the lower level is the city side composed of Shatuo, Dangqiang, and Tuyuhun, and the rebel army of Shanshui Village.

In this way, coupled with the garrison areas that exist in Jiannan and Xingyuan themselves, the roads in and out of Hexi, Longyou, and southwest from Xifan will be completely blocked.

When the three Shence armies in the northwest of Beijing entered the Helong region, their original garrisons, the three prefectures of Jing, Yuan, and Hui, were merged by the Bao army of Suining; The two prefectures of Yan and Qing were merged by the Jingsai army in Weibei; The three states of Qin, Wei and Lan were merged by the Yining Army of Fengxiang Prefecture; Cheng, Wu, Wen, Fu and other prefectures and counties inhabited by Wudu Qiang were merged with Xingyuan Prefecture; Wei, Song, Yi, Jing and other states, and Xichuan Jiedu made a merger.

Each army has its own livelihood, and compared with before, the income from the camp can undoubtedly be expanded, but the number of soldiers does not need to be increased, which can reduce a lot of burden on the imperial court.

"However, the Shence army originally had good camps in Yan, Qing, Jing, Yuan and other prefectures, and now let them go to Helong again" The emperor means that there will be something wrong with the handover.

Gao Yue's solution was for the imperial court to come forward and advance a year's worth of rice and grain to them according to the harvest amount of the Shence army's original camp, so as to ensure that there would be no shortage of rice and grain in Helong, and then the imperial court would give subsidies year by year, so that everyone would be safe.

At this time, the emperor bowed his head and asked in a deep voice, what should be done about the brute change in Lingnan? What should Du You do?

Gao Yue first asked, how did the prime ministers suggest it.

Now the political hall adopts the system of taking turns to hold the pen, Dong Jin, Jia Tan, Lu Zhen, Du Huangshang, each presided over the government affairs for a decade, the emperor said that the other three governors do not know what their opinions are for the time being, because this ten days are Lu Zhen Bingpen, he suggested to me that it is not worth using troops in Lingnan, and advocated recommending an honest and generous minister to go to Lingnan Panyu to replace Du You to return to the dynasty to quell the brute change.

"Who does Lu Jiu want?"

"He recommended Yuezhou Thorn Shi Zheng Qi." The emperor's words made Gao Yue stunned.
