Chapter 907 Faithful to Duty

Night was shrouded and the sky was dark.

Yang Yue, Yelu Chunxi personally sent Yelu Yao away.

This time, Ye Luyao was given a little benefit again, all because Yang Yue firmly believed in what Xu Wennuo said, the Tang Dynasty, the Khitan, and the Turkic conflict, no matter who eliminated the Turkic forces, would be beneficial to the Tang Dynasty.

Unless the strength of the Khitan soars, the Tang Dynasty and the Turks are beyond their reach.

However, he personally presided over the Tang Dynasty and would never allow the Khitan to be strong under his nose and endanger the Tang Dynasty.

The Tang Dynasty grew steadily, far surpassing the Khitan and Turkic in strength, and with its strong military, economy, and chain strategy, sooner or later the two tribes were completely wiped out.

The Tang army marched westward and broke into the vast hinterland of the Western Regions, and there would be no force to stop it.

The next day, Yelu Yao, Zuo Long, left Youzhou with the tribal captives!

Before leaving, Ye Luyao personally sent Yang Yue three million taels of silver in exchange for three thousand repeaters.

On the same day, Yang Yue allocated 100,000 lines of silver to reward the Tang army in Youzhou City, and at the same time rewarded Duanmu Ye, Lin Kaiyue, Yuan Madge Xiaowu Army, and Liaodong Army.

After holding a banquet in the Youzhou military camp for three days to encourage the momentum of the three armies, Yang Yue did not stay in Youzhou, and ordered Luo Shishang to send the Flying Tiger Army to protect the people in the city to the northeast.

Even though most of the territory of the Liwang Department of the Right Valley fell under the control of the Tang Dynasty, there were no wolves outside the pass, but in order to speed up the migration of the people to the northeast and ensure the safety of the people. In the future, all the people who go to Shencheng will be protected by the Flying Tiger Army.

A few days later, Luo Shishang sent a deputy general to protect the people to Shencheng, and Yang Yue continued to the northeast with Xu Wennuo, Yelu Chunxi, He Qinxin, Luomeiren, and Yu Meiren.

I've been delayed in Youzhou for too much time, and I can't continue to stay, so as not to affect the whole plan.

Moreover, the court's planning for the Northeast has already taken a lot of experience, time and money, and it can't just be invested without harvest.

Zhao Xuanhu, Guo Huaiyuan, led a hundred horsemen to protect Yang Yue and his party, followed the people, and went non-stop.

The scenery outside the gate made Xu Wennuo and He Qinxin linger, and a few years later, Yelu Chunxi was overjoyed to see the beautiful scenery outside the gate again.

Under the strict protection of the forbidden army, Yelu Chunxi and Xu Wennuo personally shuttled through the vast grassland, and Yang Yue carried He Qinxin, who was not good at equestrianism.

A group of people, talking and laughing, arrived in Shencheng!

The city of Wuwei is like a bright pearl embedded in the black earth, which is eye-catching.

At the east gate of Shencheng, people come and go, all of them are people with accents from all over the world.

At the entrance, the guards patrol and are extremely busy!

On the south side of the city gate, the people who came from the gate lined up in a long line, showing an ultimatum at the registration to prove their identity!

On the north side, many soldiers were distributing ridges, farm tools, and captured cattle and sheep.

The people got the ultimatum, got the cattle, sheep, and farm tools, and went into the city in high spirits.

When Yang Yue and his entourage rode towards the city, several patrolling guards came up with long knives, and the leading defenders bowed to Yang Yue and said, "My lord, please show me an ultimatum?"

In order to guard against the Turks, the Khitan spies infiltrated into Shencheng, and the Shencheng inventory was very strict, no matter who did not have an ultimatum and did not want to enter the city, after discovering the Khitan and Turkic spies, they would be killed on the spot.

Diplomatic note?

Zhao Xuanhu and Guo Huaiyuan heard the sound and wanted to reprimand each other angrily.

The whole world is not the king's land, and the Son of Heaven needs an ultimatum when he travels?

However, Yang Yue waved his hand slightly to obstruct the two, and the defenders in front of him were loyal to their duties and did nothing wrong.

Instead of being angry, he should be rewarded, and asked with a smile: "If there is no ultimatum, no one can enter the city?"

"That's right, even if General Duanmu comes, he must bring his own seal!" The guards cut the railroad categorically: "Shencheng is a military powerhouse, and the imperial court has repeatedly ordered and reaffirmed that it is wary of Turks and Khitans, and villains dare not show favoritism."

He has been patrolling the city gate for a long time, and he has seen a lot of people coming and going from the south to the north, and the identity of the companions is noble and low, and he can see through the same.

Yang Yue has a lot of entourage, and they are all sturdy men, and their identities are either rich or expensive.

All the entourage also wore the standard swords of the imperial court and carried repeating crossbows, so he was sure that Yang Yue was a young general or prince.

"Good!"

Yang Yue praised.

Immediately, he took out a gold ingot from his bosom and threw it to the guard: "Reward you!"

When the guard was stunned, Zhao Xuanhu jumped off his horse, walked to the side with the guard, and took out the token from his arms.

The Grand Commander of the Forbidden Army?

The guard saw the token and looked at Zhao Xuanhu with a stunned face.

"The emperor came to Shencheng Weifu for a private visit, and he didn't want to reveal his identity, if you are suspicious, go to the military camp to recruit General Lin or General Yuan." Zhao Xuanhu didn't want to embarrass the guards, after all, the other party was loyal to his duties and did not make mistakes.

"My lord, wait a moment, and the villain will report to General Lin immediately." The guards believed Zhao Xuanhu, but the emperor was here, and he must inform Lin Kaiyue.

"Well, no need to say anything!"

Zhao Xuanhu patted the guard on the shoulder and commanded softly.

The guard bowed slightly, turned around and arrived at the city gate, muttered a few words to his companions next to him, and immediately someone rode into the city and went to report.

Zhao Xuanhu returned to Yang Yue's side, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Your Majesty, the northeast is extremely far away from Chang'an, and it still acts according to the rules of the imperial court, and most of the officials left in the northeast are cadres!"

"That's right, the severity of Shen Cheng's censorship is even worse than that of Chang'an!" Guo Huaiyuan agreed, if all the officials of the Tang Dynasty did their best to the officials of Shencheng, why would the Tang Dynasty not rise.

Yang Yue Longyan smiled and said proudly: "Most of the officials in Shencheng are my cronies when I was in Dandong, after Fan Hengwen and Lin Kaiyue have been operating for many years, they have already taken root in An, and Duanmu Ye is presiding over the military and politics, which is indeed very good."

Recalling the past, when he came to Dandong from Youzhou, there were only generals such as Lin Kaiyue and Yan Yuefeng around him, and a few advisers such as Fan Hengwen and Li Xuanqi.

When I first went to Dandong, I faced all the forces, and the day was not safe, after several years of painstaking management, I gradually eliminated the Quartet forces, gained a foothold in Dandong, expanded, and continued to grow.

Nowadays, the Northeast is peaceful and in full swing of development.

At the beginning, when Fan Hengwen proposed to build Shencheng, it was he in the most difficult period, gritting his teeth to build this city, and now Shencheng has become the largest city outside the Guan, gathering the ordnance and economic supplies manufactured by the Tang Army and the people living outside the Guan, which is of great help to the Tang Army and the people living outside the Guan.

Moreover, Yang Yue knows very well that the Northeast is vast and the black soil is fertile, and once it is gradually fully reclaimed, it will form a huge granary!

At that time, it will be said together with the granaries of Shudi, Jiangnan, Central Plains, and Guanzhong, which will have a huge role in promoting the growth and rejuvenation of the Tang Dynasty.

Once a steady stream of money and grain is transported to Chang'an, Datang's national strength has grown by leaps and bounds!

When expanding outward, it was supported by sufficient money and food, and there was no need to use reckless military force, which plunged the people into dire straits.

Therefore, he must personally inspect the situation of Shencheng and the northeast reclamation of tuntian, so as to make strict arrangements.
