Chapter 940: Return to the White Spirit Clan

After the New Year, the second batch of Lingshou officials, soldiers, and personnel also arrived in Xianyang, and this time most of the important officials of Lingshou came to Xianyang, including the 5,000 beast training army, as well as a large number of officials and soldiers' families. However, Gao Yuan did not give an order to reform according to the official system of the Han State, but decided to leave Xianyang and rush to the station of the Bailing clan.

Although the decision of the plateau was fully supported by people who knew the inside story, it was still unanimously opposed by many officials, including officials of the Han and Qin dynasties, who had just arrived in Xianyang, Ning Qi and Shen Shen, who had just arrived in Xianyang, and as soon as they heard that the plateau was going to leave Xianyang at this time, it would take at least three or four months to inspect the north, and regardless of the fatigue of the journey, they immediately came to the plateau in front of them and strongly persuaded the plateau to cancel the decision to leave Xianyang.

In fact, it is common for the monarch to inspect the place in every country, on the one hand, to observe the local people's situation to reassure the people; On the other hand, it is also to proclaim the authority of the monarch and strengthen the monarch's authority in various places. In the past, when Gao Yuan was in Daijun, he often went out on patrol or led the army to fight, and he spent more time not in the capital.

However, now is not the time to inspect the place, because the reason is very simple, although Xianyang is basically under the control of the plateau now, but the time for the plateau to enter the main pass is too short, and the rule of stability has not been established in Qin, so now is by no means the time for the plateau to leave Xianyang, but should sit in Xianyang, implement the model system of the Han state in Qin, and establish a stable ruling foundation. After waiting for a year and a half, it will be almost over, and at that time, Gao Yuan will be able to leave Xianyang at any time and do what he wants to do. This time, Gao Yuan actually took Hehua away, and as a result, Xianyang didn't even have a person who could hold the field, which of course would make Lingshou's officials crazy.

And the officials of Lingshou were also very surprised, because since the plateau entered the Daijun, the behavior, words and deeds have always been very decent, and since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, compared with the recognized Ming Jun, there is no more concession, and there has never been a time to act wantonly, this time I don't know what's wrong, I must leave Xianyang when I should never leave Xianyang, and do something to inspect the north.

It turned out that the officials of the Qin State also did not want Gao Yuan to leave Xianyang at this time, because now their fate was firmly tied to the new Han State, and even if the Qin clan could restore the Qin State, they would not be able to restore their previous status in the Qin State. Therefore, several important ministers of the former Qin Dynasty, such as Li Si, Wang Xuan, and Meng Wu, also came together to ask for a meeting with Gao Yuan to dissuade Gao Yuan from leaving Xianyang at this time.

However, Gao Yuan knew that it was imperative to come to the Bailing Clan's station, and the sooner the better, so he insisted on leaving Xianyang immediately, regardless of the opposition of the ministers. And Zhang Liang and Chun Yubo, who know the inside story, of course, still support Gao Yuan as much as possible. He also helped Takahara persuade other officials.

Of course, we can't explain to other officials the true image that the plateau is leaving Xianyang, but we can only say that the plateau is going to leave Xianyang, and there must be a reason for him, after all, the plateau has never been chaotic before, and this time is naturally no exception. Seeing the resolute attitude of the plateau, the other officials also knew that they could not persuade the plateau, so they had no choice but to give up and instead prepare for the fact that the plateau was not in Xianyang, after all, now the fate of each individual is linked to the Han state, and it is still necessary to maintain it.

In fact, Gao Yuan and Hebi decided to leave Xianyang at this time, but also after careful consideration and discussion, not really just throw away their hands and throw a big mess to the ministers of Xianyang.

First of all, although the rule of the plateau in the Qin land is not stable, but it has basically controlled Xianyang, and although there are still many people in the Qin land who oppose the rule of the plateau, but the power is not large, it is difficult to achieve the climate, because it is now stationed in Xianyang The original Han army is close to 200,000, with such an army, it is enough to deal with ordinary accidents.

At present, the officials of the former Qin State in Xianyang, as well as the army, have basically accepted the rule of the plateau, and the interests of the important ministers of the former Qin State such as Li Si, Wei Yi, Weak Dun, Mao Jiao, Feng Ji, and Meng Wu have been tied to the current Han State.

Although Gao Yuan and Hehua all know that in another time and space, after the death of Qin Shi Huang, Li Si and Zhao Gao colluded to tamper with Qin Shi Huang's edict, supported Hu Hai as emperor, and forced Fusu to death, which was the main reason for the fall of the Qin Dynasty. But the reason why Li Si was bewitched by Zhao Gao was mainly for his own power, and now that Zhao Gao has died, Li Si's power and the Han Kingdom are completely tied together, Li Si is not a brainless person, and he should understand the truth.

And although Gao Yuan and Hehua left Xianyang, they still left Li Yinghong and Chun Yu Zhongxiu in Xianyang, and Gao Yuan left the capital many times before, leaving Li Yinghong to act as the superintendent of the country, and a relatively complete system has been formed, not to mention that there is now Chun Yu Zhongxiu to assist Li Yinghong, which can greatly supplement Li Yinghong's weakness of insufficient political ability, so Gao Yuan and Hehua left Xianyang at this time and rushed to the station of the Bailing clan. What's more, both of them knew that the sooner they rushed to the station of the White Spirit Clan, the better, and the sooner the better, and they really couldn't delay any longer.

After arranging the affairs of Xianyang, Plateau and Hehua were ready to set off.

The Bailing tribe's station is far away, and it will take at least three months to go and come, and it will also have to cross the long Gobi steppe, there are all kinds of beasts and wolves, although the Xiongnu have weakened, but it is still the biggest threat on the grassland, so although the strength of the plateau and Hehua has increased greatly, it is not possible to set off alone, but still have to bring some troops with them.

However, the threat on the grassland is indeed much smaller now, so this time there are not many troops traveling with the plateau and Hehua, there are only more than 1,500 people in total, including 200 beast training troops, more than 200 wolves, 500 infantry troops, 30 Bailing women, 600 light cavalry, 200 heavy cavalry, and more than 200 carriages to load the accompanying grain, grass, materials, etc. Each vehicle is driven by two soldiers, and the other cavalry, infantry, and beast training armies are all configured according to one person and three horses. The leading leaders will be Ling Feng, Luo Huan, and Jiang Mingxia.

Among the concubines in the harem of the plateau, there was also Yun Yao accompanying her, because this time she was going to the station of the Bailing clan, and she also brought more than 200 people from the Bailing clan, so Yun Yao, as the great master of the Bailing clan, naturally had to set off with her.

After gathering the army, Gao Yuan and Hehua bid farewell to the people in Xianyang, and led a group of people and horses to set off from Xianyang, heading north, passing through Jiuyuan County into the Saibei grassland, and then splitting to the west.

All the way to the road, there is no trouble, because more than 1,500 people, four or five thousand war horses, and more than 200 wolves, such a scale of team, ordinary beasts, wolves do not dare to come to trouble, even some small and medium-sized nomadic tribes do not dare to provoke them, of course, others do not come to provoke themselves, the plateau will naturally not take the initiative to provoke others.

During the day, the men and horses marched, and the plateau also led the army to hunt and play games on the grassland to pass the time of the journey, and when resting at night, the plateau did not dare to be careless, and used vehicles to form outlines, and left the soldiers and wolves who kept vigil to ensure that nothing went wrong. Therefore, after walking for about forty days, I finally walked into the valley where the White Spirit Clan was located.

It has been more than three years since the last time I came to the Bailing Clan, although after moving to Daijun, the life of the Bailing people is good, much better than living in the station, so most of the Bailing people have some longing for it. But now that he has returned to his hometown, the scene in the valley is still the same, and there are still some road signs and temporary houses built by the Bailing people at the beginning, and the deeper they go into the valley, the more traces of these years are left, which also makes the accompanying Bailing people sigh and feel a little like a different world. Many people couldn't help but weep.

Although Yun Yao did not grow up in the station of the Bai Ling Clan, this revisit to the old place is also quite a lot of feelings, Hehua is the first time to come to the station of the Bai Ling Clan, so he is very curious about the scene in the valley, as well as the life of the Bai Ling people here in the past.

After entering the valley, it was not far from the station of the White Spirit Clan, and the climate in the valley was mild, and it was much better to go out of the valley, so the speed of the people and horses was much faster, and after three days, they arrived at the old site of the White Spirit Clan's station.

When the Bailing tribe moved from the station, it was once set on fire to burn all the villages of the Bailing tribe, although three years have passed, the original scorched earth and rubble have changed a lot, grass has grown in many places, and some burned dead wood has regrown new branches, but still vaguely visible the scale of the village.

Because they have reached the destination of this trip, they will stay here for at least a few days, so naturally they can no longer set up a simple temporary camp, and the original site of the village is not suitable as a camp, fortunately, the place in the valley is quite large, and the Bailing people are also familiar with the terrain and environment here, and there are not many people in their line, so they choose to camp by a small river hundreds of steps away from the original site of the village.

After resting for the night, the next day, Gao Yuan, Hehua, and Yun Yao left Ling Feng to garrison in the camp, leading Luo Huan, Jiang Mingxia, and more than a dozen Bailing people to enter the original site of the Bailing village to find the location of the Bailing temple.

Because the last time was in an underground cave space in one of the towers of the temple of the White Spirit Clan, the talisman of the plateau absorbed the power of white water, and this evolved into a Taiji talisman.
