Chapter 63: Opportunity

"How many degrees is this, almost forty! Hot Dead Hot Dead ......"

Zhang Wei jumped to the front hall, looked at the thermometer, and when he saw the sign, he hurriedly shouted, causing a burst of laughter from the helper.

"A-Niang, it's almost forty degrees today, didn't you say that if you are in the sky, it will cool down?"

"How can there be a certain number of these? The matter of the Four Seasons Division, is it up to us? ”

Without raising his head, Bai Jie, who was still embroidering, raised the show in his hand, which was a lively cat. It really looked like a cat that had come to life, and it landed in front of me. Rao is Zhang Wei is a bear child, and he was also full of energy, and then shouted: "Auntie, can you give it to me?" ”

"It's not done yet, but in another seven or eight days, maybe it'll be fine."

"Okay, give me this."

"You little man, what do you want to do with this thing?"

"Useful field."

begged her mother, but Bai Jie still couldn't resist her son, so she promised to leave the cat embroidery to Zhang Wei.

Walking out of the door, Zhang Wei secretly said in his heart: Xue Niang likes cats and dogs the most, Aya doesn't let her touch it, with A-Niang, who seems to be a real person, it will definitely make Xue Niang happy.

"When the time comes, Yang Aya will go to Luhu Lake to pick lotuses together. Let's go and see the heroes who kill Jiaolong and kill Jiaolong! ”

Clenching his fists, Zhang Wei's eyes lit up, and he planned to ...... Perfect!

The bear child has a bear child's plan, and the bear child's father naturally has his own plan. Cheng Chubi also has a thermometer there, and the news that has come in the past few days is that the temperature in the sand and gravel during the day is generally above 60 degrees. The temperature has been maintained at about 45 degrees, and the construction has stopped, and even the camels are reluctant to dry outside.

Some defense projects in the prefecture are basically a foregone conclusion that they will be postponed until the beginning of autumn. This year's high temperature in summer has caused heavy damage to the moraine grassland, and a fire has caused heavy losses to all tribes. Even the tribal leaders with hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep are no better than the shepherd slaves who have nothing at the moment, except for their families.

Before the Tang Dynasty intervened in the Western Regions, local forces were left to fend for themselves or follow the Turks out to rob to tide over the difficulties.

But the Tang Dynasty was not a Turkic in the end, let alone a bandit group that made a living from robbery, and the inertia of a thousand years, whether it was in buying people's hearts or duties, before the imperial court officially issued official documents. The governments of Dunhuang, Nanan, and Xixi have all begun to fight the disaster.

It's just that it is naturally impossible to expect Dunhuang to treat the remnants of Shule the same as the people in Guannei.

In Dunhuang, whether it is the emperor's will conveyed by the Dunhuang Palace or the instructions of the Governor's Mansion in the south of the city, it is clear that this is a good time to divide the remnants of Shule.

"Cheng Chubi actually got a vote for someone from the Boling Cui clan to run to be a teacher, and he has an idea." Zhang De nodded again and again, Cheng Chubi's approach was quite correct, at the moment when Lu Wen was declining in the Western Regions, with the blessing of Cao Xian's "Original Yin Xun", plus the Western Army on the side, although Bolu and Zhangxiong in the south had expanded slightly, they could not achieve unification or dominance in the plateau area.

This was an excellent period for consolidating the foundation of the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions, as long as it ensured relative stability within twenty years, and without an external opponent that could threaten the hegemony of the Tang Dynasty, it would be easy for the entire Western Regions to be washed.

This has nothing to do with brainwashing or cultural aggression, it is purely similar to business operations, which will eventually form consumption habits.

What's more, even if it is bragging or talking about the "Mandate of Heaven", the Tang Dynasty can just throw a Han Dynasty brother out, and the family does not speak two words.

The ones who really take the risk are those salesmen in front-line positions, and militarily they are the big soldiers of the Western Army under the command of Cheng Chubi; In terms of culture and education, it is the Boling Cui clan and others who are exiled here as "political prisoners"; Economically, it is a handful of Tang people from different places and different nationalities.

It is not surprising that these front-line teachers of the Boling Cui clan died six or seven percent, and it is not surprising that there is no risk in teaching if they want to be stable until they teach, at least thirty or fifty years later.

During this period, the very simple revanchism will make teachers such as Bolingcui recognize the social reality.

"Well, that's good."

Continuing to look at the letter, Zhang De found that Cheng Chubi quickly gathered a lot of Cui's daughters and married the elite under his command who had the heart to "open up".

Some of the attributes of these people are similar to those of the second generation such as Cheng Chubi and Qu Tuquan, for example, in the family, the importance is low, and even the direct family is unsustainable and cannot tilt resources to them.

Cheng Chubi is gambling, betting that the Tang Dynasty will maintain the Western Regions at all costs; At the same time, Cheng Chubi is also insisting, as a cutting-edge general of the imperial military, his main cause was contributed to Mobei in the early stage, and now it is all thrown into the Western Regions.

The name before and after, or in other words, whether Cheng Chubi's future children and grandchildren can have a good "family business" depends on the "family foundation" he has saved in the Western Regions.

"It seems that this catastrophe is not without benefits."

Cheng Chubi has already explained in the letter that the shepherds of all departments in Shule's hometown are now getting rid of them at a cheap price. The slave owners of the leaders of the original Turks, Shule, and Tiele, they needed to quickly cash in for cattle, sheep or fields. At this time, the shepherd slaves at hand were either killed or sold, and there was definitely no one who wanted to kill, but if there was no food to feed the herdsmen, they still had to be killed.

As for the low-level herdsmen, as early as when Cheng Chubi defeated Zhu Jubo, he had already secretly "passed through the Tang Dynasty". Which khan is not with them? The Sage Khan is obviously bigger and stronger, so of course it is following the Sage Khan.

"If we do a good job this time, there will be a lot less fighting in the Western Regions."

The core population of Shule is not large, but there are countless miscellaneous people in Shule's sphere of influence. After several purchases by the Turks and the Tang Dynasty, the slave owners at both ends of the first rat not only survived safely and steadily, but the total number of herdsmen ranged from 60,000 to 23,000 or 2,300,000, depending on how far the Tang army's hand could stretch.

The Hu people are not stupid, since the Tang Dynasty was able to take out grain, cattle and sheep in order to save the lives of slaves, how could ordinary herdsmen and farmers not save them?

This is a simple truth that compares the heart to the heart, and at the moment when the Han is strong and the Hu is weak, normal people will have an intuitive value judgment.

This will be of great help to the law and order war, which may last for one or two decades in the future. This catastrophe may make it impossible to launch law and order wars or even riots in most areas.

With an all-round superiority in military culture and economy, and even leading in human nature and morality, how can the "heroes" with brains at the bottom make a loss-making business.

"But at the end of the day, it's money."

Horizontal and vertical Cheng Chubi all ask for money and food, and he can not be afraid of the Dunhuang side, and Cheng Chubi is also because of Zhang Deming's secret support.

After thinking about it, Zhang De organized the language and wrote a letter to Cheng Chubi first.
