"His Royal Highness the King of the East China Sea is the Taifu Lu Shangshu, and the emperor entrusts the military and political affairs, which is the most important thing in the world. (Please search, or enter directly to see the latest chapter) Since we are loyal to the Great Jin, we naturally have to respect the orders of His Royal Highness the King of the East China Sea. Merely...... When the situation is chaotic, how to make the center of Luoyang and the king of the East China Sea understand our intentions still needs to be carefully considered, and there is no need to rush for a while. "6 Slowly.

After Fang Qinzhi hesitated for a moment, he replied, "Yes, yes." ”

After the death of Emperor Hui, King Yuzhang ascended the throne to inherit the great treasure, and the king of the East China Sea led the army out of the town of Xuchang to control the government remotely. According to the meaning of 6 Yao, it seems that while he is losing his sincerity to the King of the East China Sea, he also intends to communicate with the Luoyang Imperial Court at the same time? Considering the military positions of General Yingyang, Daijun Taishou, and Supervisor Daijun Shanggu Guangning, it turned out to be unilaterally given by the King of the East China Sea. With such a sincere woo from the King of the East China Sea, the young general in front of him seemed to be not so enthusiastic...... Such an attitude really made Fang Qinzhi feel quite unfathomable.

While contemplating, 6 Yao sat down again and continued: "Fang Jinhu Er is restless, and Northern Xinjiang is uneasy. I am the Taishou of Daijun, and I intend to unify the various departments of Hujin and Jin, and have some help. Mr. Fang thinks that in order to achieve this goal, what needs to be done urgently at present? ”

Fang Qinzhi finally waited for 6 Yao to ask about political affairs. But when he was about to quote the scriptures and make a long speech, he saw 6 Yao with a confident smile; So he had an epiphany in his heart, bowed down deeply, and said: "What you continue to do is to show that there is nothing to do!" ”

"Show it all right?" 6 Haruka repeated a sentence meaningfully.

"The thing to do is to show that nothing is done." Fang Qinzhi responded.

This sentence suddenly made 6 Yao think a little higher about the talent of the other party's diligence.

How to completely subdue the Jin people in northern Xinjiang and how to manage the vast area of the grassland in Weiyuan and Bashang, 6 Yao and Shao Xu had been planning for a long time before they sent their troops.

Although the source is included in the sphere of influence of the Daijun Army. But the Jin family on the grassland has been isolated from the imperial court for decades, and there are not many thoughts of loyalty to the monarch; They are also united by means of marriage, relying on the authority of the clan to govern themselves, and even if outsiders have authority, it is difficult to suppress them. At this time, it is the special moment of the so-called "governing a big country if cooking small fresh", that is to say, governing a place is like cooking small fish, once it is stirred too much, it will be rotten and inedible. According to the explanation of Wang Bi, a master of metaphysics in the previous dynasty, the more complex the environment must be managed, the more it cannot be stirred indiscriminately. This is because if there is restlessness, it will inevitably cause panic and anxiety, and on the contrary, the situation will be pushed to a worse condition.

Therefore, 6 Yao intended to maintain the status quo from the beginning, fully respect the status of each family, and follow the old practice without making any changes. After the entire grassland is stabilized, we can talk about implementing specific policies. He never thought that Fang Qinzhi, a businessman he met after coming to Weiyuan, would have a completely consistent opinion with himself. 6Haruka couldn't help laughing: "Good! ”

The next day, the 6 guards on the side issued a document written by themselves, and the three brothers Fang Qinzhi, Fang Mianzhi, and Fang Jianzhi were studious and talented, and were recruited to engage in the palace of General Yingyang. The three of them were overjoyed, and immediately put on a banquet to celebrate, during the banquet, Fang Qin boasted and praised himself, and on the other hand, he was grateful to the court and the 6 Taishou Dai De's words surged; Fang Mianzhi and Fang Jianzhi were additionally grateful to their brothers, chanting long songs on the spot to show their friendship, and their words were like rivers and seas, which was simply overwhelming.

Obviously, as Fang Qinzhi said, these three brothers have been pretending to talk for more than 20 years, and they have pretended to be used to it.

Except for introducing the three Fang brothers as officials, 6 Yao had no other actions. He stayed in Weiyuan for a few days, drinking and feasting with all kinds of homeless people, and spent most of his time touring the scenery, like a scholar who went out to Qingdao.

On the fifth day, 6 Yao proposed to return south. On the evening of the same day, the local clan leaders gathered and set up a banquet for 6 Yao to practice. When he was drunk, someone finally asked a question that had been held back for several days: Since Weiyuan has returned to the rule of the imperial court, how will Taishou want to govern? 6 Yao replied casually, "In the future, the Daijun Taishou Mansion will take up all kinds of official positions, and everyone will be appointed as they see fit. As for the governance of the source, how is Deyuan Gong and how it will be in the future, there will be no slight variation. As soon as these words came out, many clan leaders present suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and the atmosphere of the banquet became a little warmer.

Early the next morning, 6 Yao set off to return south, and Wei Cao also said goodbye to the children of the clan and accompanied 6 Yao to the south. His official positions of General Zuo and Marquis Dingxiang were still given by the imperial court during the Taixi period, and in terms of position alone, it was really frighteningly high. Although the official may not take this kind of official title that is usually given to foreign races seriously, even for the sake of the dignity of the imperial court, it is impossible for him to serve as a subordinate of 6 Yao. He could only accompany the army under the banner of returning to his hometown in Daijun so that he could consult on affairs remotely for 6.

Accompanying the team, there were dozens of descendants of the Weiyuan Jin family who had gathered urgently. Each of these young men prepared their own armor and horses, and some even brought a number of riders, all of whom said that they intended to serve in the army under the command of 6 Yao. 6 Haruka knew that they were the protons sent by the various families of the source of the water.

As far as 6 Yao's own thoughts are concerned, he doesn't think that relying on one or two hostages can ensure the loyalty of the entire family, but since the various families in the source have such a move to repay the favor, there is no need to deliberately refuse. If you think about it more deeply, the behavior of these families in sending protons must have been tacitly approved by Wei Cao. It is likely that Wei Cao also intended to use this to express to the Daijun regime that he had no intention of setting aside the control of the imperial court and holding tens of thousands of Jin people in Weiyuan for a long time.

Therefore, 6 Yao did not pretend to refuse, and directly organized these dozens of teenagers into a team, and asked them to nominate grass-roots officers such as Shi Chang and Wu Chang on their own, and selected a skilled archer and horse among them to serve as the team leader. This cavalry team belonged to He Yun's department, and on the way back to Daijun, they served as the servants of 6 Yao himself.

In addition to these young protons, powerful homeless leaders such as Fan Ban, Jia Qing, and Li Yi also went south with 6 Yao. This is because 6 Yao announced that the entire grassland on the dam will be surveyed, and the land will be granted after unified accounting, regardless of agricultural and pastoral land. The Fan, Jia, and Li clans originally did not belong to the Weiyuan Jin system controlled by the Wei family, and most of their family tribes were gathered in the southern part of the Bashang grassland, and they were all forced to flee to the source for refuge due to the Xianbei attack. They each have scattered but substantial amounts of arable land, which are in urgent need of recognition on behalf of the county. Although it is said that with the area of the grassland on the dam, land survey will only take three or five years, but the leaders of each family naturally have to take precautions to avoid suffering losses when they get it.

Falling in the group of 6 Haruka and the last was a blacksmith team of hundreds of people. For a long time, they were strictly supervised by the Xianbei tribe, engaged in high-intensity work with little personal freedom, and lived an extremely difficult life. During this grassland turmoil, many craftsmen were killed by the manic Hu'er, but a considerable number of them were accepted by other Jin clans and fled together to survive in the source. The importance of these blacksmiths is better known than anyone else. He asked the Fang brothers to come forward and invited, and selected more than 100 of them who were outstanding in craftsmanship and willing to contribute to the Daijun army, and they were all included in the artisan camp in the Daijun Luochuan Daiwang City.

If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. Since the Han Dynasty, various prefectures and counties have set up departments such as iron officials, salt officials, engineering officials, and capital water officials, and according to the number of affairs, they are responsible for the management of orders, chiefs, and ministers. By the time of Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty, there were a total of 49 iron officials in the world, and countless copper and iron were produced every year. Among them, the iron officials located in Daling County, Taiyuan have continued to this day, and after several breakdowns, they are now gradually resuming production in the hands of Yue Shigong, providing sufficient weapons for the Jinyang army.

According to the people of Daijun, near Warrior Fort in the southeast of Daijun, there were several small iron mines in the former Wei Dynasty. Although there is no high-quality iron ore production, there are huge mines in various places around Daijun, such as Fanyang and Yanguo in Youzhou, Zhongshan and Changshan in Jizhou, which have been mined for hundreds of years. 6 Yao planned to use the caravan strength of the three Fang brothers to purchase iron ore from these counties, and then concentrate it on Dai County to smelt it, so as to meet the needs of the military and civilians.

Fort Warriors has the advantage of water transportation, and there are many forests nearby, which is suitable for the use of iron officials, or the craftsmen can be concentrated there for unified management. 6 Thinking like this, an idea even suddenly popped into him: maybe the Warrior Fort could simply be renamed the Iron Fort to show the importance of the craftsmen?

The group traveled southward, and returned victoriously when the autumn was crisp, and 6 Yao couldn't help but feel a little complacent. About five days later, they arrived at the Daijun Army camp in the center of the Bashang grassland. 6 Yao joined the army here, and stayed for two more days, waiting for Zhu Sheng's return from the scouts sent to Youzhou.

In the days after the defeat of the Youzhou army, Zhu Sheng was not idle at all. He used a large number of Xianbei prisoners of war captured on the battlefield to torture and inquire about the military situation in Youzhou in many ways, and even sent a large number of soldiers to disguise themselves as defeated soldiers to chase after Wang Jun and others along the escape route. Although it is far from enough to fully grasp the reality of Youzhou, the large-scale military movements have at least been discovered.

Combining these detailed reports and corroborating each other, it can be understood that after Wang Jun and Duan Ji's 6 dependents and other high-ranking officials of the Youzhou Army fled, they did not enter Jixian County. Probably unwilling to accept this rare fiasco, they reorganized their forces in the area of Anle and Hunu, and urgently recruited a lot of cavalry from the subordinate tribes, and once sent a partial division to enter Shanggu County from the direction of the gateway army in the eastern mountains of Daidi. But after all, their losses on the grassland were too heavy, and the nobles of the Duan Department and the Yuwen Department all had a lot of opinions about it. Therefore, they quickly withdrew this army again, and even the Xianbei subordinate tribes of Duanbu, which were originally scattered in the two counties of Shanggu and Quang Ninh, showed signs of shrinking. Now it seems that unless Wang Jun makes a desperate gamble and forces the Hu clan to send troops in a big way, it will never be possible to attack again.

This reminded 6 Yao that since he was ordered to supervise the military forces of Dai County, Shanggu, and Guangning, he must include Shanggu and Guangning in the scope of military control, and at the same time, he must resolutely contain the strength of the Youzhou Army to the east of the military capital, and must not relax slightly.

This is the next direction of action of the Daijun Army. However, considering that the autumn harvest was approaching, and the Daijun army was unable to mobilize on a large scale, 6 Yao pondered the personalities and specialties of several generals under him, and finally planned to transfer Chen Pei's thousands of troops to the expedition, and then recruit a number of miscellaneous cavalry to assist. After all, Youzhou and Daijun are both under the rule of the imperial court, and 6 Yao was ordered by the imperial court to take charge of the military of the three counties, and Wang Jun would not dare to openly obstruct it if he was not under the banner of Xianbei people. Chen Pei should be enough with these horses.

After another three or five days, the Daijun army basically adjusted from the exhaustion after the battle, and 6 Yao was ready to set up his troops and return.

At this moment, Shao Xu's envoys came one after another.

"What happened to Daijun?" This time, the army of the county went north, and Shao Xu presided over the local affairs, and Liu Fei and Chen Peier led the headquarters to stay. The Zahu tribe in Dai County has long been cleared, Murong Longcheng in the west is an ally, and the Hu tribe in Guangning County is isolated from the Hu tribe in Guangning County in the east by relying on rivers such as Luoshui and Luanshui, so it should be in a relatively safe state. But Shao Xu suddenly sent a messenger, and 6 Yao was inevitably a little nervous.

The lack of scribes in the county was evident at this time. The messenger was an old soldier with a weathered face, and in the face of 6 Yao's inquiry, he couldn't say that he was ugly for a long time, and he said again and again: "Changshi said, please return to Dai County." ”

6 Yao had just sent him to rest, and another messenger came, still not knowing anything, but said, "Please return to Daijun." ”

6 The news of Yao's victory in northern Xinjiang had already sent someone to inform Shao Xu. Shao Xu only replied to the letter to congratulate him, and transported some grain and straw with the letter. This Shao Gong has been up and down several times in the Huan Sea, and he can be called a person who has been weathered for a long time and has a deep city, but he is not the kind of person who is shocked when he encounters trouble. 6 Yao thought about it again and again, but he didn't know why Shao Xu was so anxious, and summoned Xue Tong, Ding Miao and other generals to discuss, and the generals were also confused.

The more this happened, the more suspicious 6 Haruka became. Fortunately, the army was already preparing to return to Daijun, and all preparations were ready-made. So he gathered his cavalry and selected hundreds of additional horses, ready to set off immediately. Before leaving the camp, Shao Xu's third messenger arrived.

What was it that was so nervous that the three messengers galloped hundreds of miles to urge? 6Haruka tried to suppress the anxiety in his heart, and raised his whip and signaled: "Bring the messenger!" ”

The third messenger was a man of letters, and he galloped for days, both of which were worn out by the saddle and drenched in blood. Hearing 6 Yao's call, he limped to 6 Yao's horse and bowed down. 6 From a distance, I realized that this person was a close member of Shao Xu's clan, a reliable official who was the secretary of the Daijun Taishou Mansion and had access to all kinds of secrets.

6Haruka jumped off his horse, lifted the messenger up, and first said in a hard voice, and then asked in a deep voice, "What has happened to Daijun?" Come on! ”

The messenger looked around. 6 With a slight jaw, He Yun immediately waved his order knowingly, ordering dozens of soldiers to disperse and isolate people from each other. The originally noisy road immediately quieted down, and the messenger took another step forward, and only whispered until he approached 6 Yao's ear: "General, Jizhou Thorn Shi Ding Shao is critically ill. ”
