"It's almost time. We have to return to Liaodi."
Live in Yanze.
Zhang Qi spoke in front of a large map.
Several generals on his left and right nodded.
It has been nearly a week since the war ended, and everything Zhang Qi should have arranged has been arranged.
"This time Hu Shui is left to take charge of the overall situation. This military stronghold is good and can continue to be built. It can also be used as a base to spread in the future."
"King Xiutu, please let your tribe graze in Juyanze. Cooperate with Hu Shui to guard the Hexi Corridor. I will arrange for supplies to arrive depending on the time."
Hu Shui and King Xiutu accepted the offer one after another.
King Xiutu, who stayed behind in Yanze, didn't have any objections, because compared to what he got, this little effort was nothing at all.
his son.
Jin Rixi.
Now that Hu Shui's personal cavalry has been promoted to Zhang Qi's personal cavalry, as long as he goes back and trains hard, it is self-evident what this level of status can bring.
The number of Han prisoners has been clearly counted.
One hundred and ninety-six thousand, four hundred and fifty-one.
Except for more than 10,000 civilians who were carrying baggage, the rest were all regular troops of the Han Dynasty.
Of course, it's not very formal either, in Zhang Qi's eyes.
Except for the elite members of each general's headquarters, the regular army of this era is just a product of military service. There is training, but how often it is practiced is unknown.
Zhang Qi planned to take all of these 190,000 people back to Liao and disperse them.
Staying in Yanze will only do more harm than good.
Fortunately, with Zhang Qi here, the importance of baggage becomes less important. They can travel lightly and save a little time.
Even so, I won't be able to return to Liaodi within a month or two.
But that’s all.
The number of horses cannot equip so many people, so we can only take it one step at a time.
The decision is made.
Zhang Qi stopped wasting time.
Move from Juyanze to the grassland.
The 190,000 Han army surrendered, plus the Liaodong army, amounted to a large-scale movement of more than 200,000 people.
The momentum and scene can be described as quite large.
To ensure a smooth journey.
Zhang Qi moved in batches according to the method of marching a large army.
If they are all together, there will be too many variables that are difficult to control.
——
"City Lord, there is news from your Majesty!"
"read!"
"Ju Yanze won a great victory and captured more than 190,000 Han troops. They are on their way back!"
"good!"
Hu Ling's face was overjoyed.
Then she thought: "Organize a group of people and horses to march from the grassland to Juyanze. With so many people on your side, the number of horses will definitely not be enough. Bring 30,000 horses and go back in batches to support them!"
"promise!"
"By the way, remember to ask someone to go to the Liaodong Prefect's Mansion and tell your wife that your Majesty will be back soon, so that you can wait for the birth with peace of mind."
"promise!"
Hu Ling stood up from her desk and walked to the window.
Outside the window, birds are singing and flowers are fragrant. A transplanted fir tree is green, and birds have built nests on the treetops.
Dong dong dong,
The door that had just been closed was pushed open again.
Hu Ling turned around and said, "Come in."
A young man dressed as a signal corpsman ran in to report.
"City Lord, the Han army has made a move. Shuofang, Wuyuan, Yunzhong, Dingxiang, Yanmen, Daijun, and Shanggu have all been recovered. They are now heading towards Yuyang, coming from Youbeiping!"
"So fast! It seems that the Han Dynasty has also received the news."
"Tell Liu Ze that eagles can intrude, but they cannot collide head-on. You can abandon Yuyang, but you cannot abandon Youbeiping."
"Send a message to Zhao State and tell them it's time to move!"
"promise!"
——
Right Beiping,
Thirty thousand tiger troops and thirty thousand eagle troops are stationed near Pinggang County.
Signal Corps, pass it down quickly.
Liu Ze and Ying received the order at the same time.
Two thousand-man squads left Pinggang County at the same time.
Run towards Yuyang.
Of course, they were not there to fight, but to explore the movements of the Han army and create obstacles.
According to the reports from various places in the border counties, the Han army raised a total of 130,000 troops this time, and countless officials and civilians came. The momentum was very huge, and they announced that they had sent 300,000 troops.
Facing the king's army, the generals in the border counties naturally did not dare to disobey, so they recovered quickly.
In fact, it is wrong to use the term "recovery", because from the beginning to the end, the border counties have never fallen into Zhang Qi's hands, only the military command order given last year.
And there is also the decentralization of power among the supervisory and military forces.
Therefore, the border counties are not in chaos.
But the arrival of the Han army caused this calm wave to rise and fall.
When raising troops this time, the Yulin Langs were all recruited from merchants, sons-in-law, criminals, and rangers. If there were more people, there would be all kinds of people.
Therefore, wherever the Han army passed, the people would inevitably complain.
It's just that there is nothing to do yet.
But the web has been running, and rumors and rumors have pointed the finger at one place.
——
Zhao State.
King Zhao Liu Pengzu burned the piece of paper he had read with candlelight, his face showing unconcealable excitement.
"Come here, please send secret messages to all the kings!"
——
All over the Han Dynasty.
In the countryside of the village.
The farmers are working hard.
The women also made their own looms.
Chatting about family affairs.
"This year's harvest is a good one. There will be enough food at home."
"Isn't that right? After Qu Shuai came to Wolong Mountain, our life has become more promising day by day. Moreover, even if we have minor illnesses or disasters, we can go to the mountain to have a look, and we will be fine after we come back. No wonder believers say that Wolong Mountain's He is so handsome and blessed by God."
"That's right, my family is the first to invite the God of Heaven back to the shrine. Look at how well the crops are growing in my field."
"."
"It's not good! It's not good!"
The originally peaceful small village suddenly heard the shouts of children.
The women who stayed at home and the old people who were enjoying the cold couldn't help but walk out of their rooms.
"Xiaozi, what are you shouting? What's wrong?"
"Wolong Mountain Wolong Mountain Canal Commander said that the Han court is going to collect grain again, and asked everyone to collect grain quickly."
"ah!"
For a time, the whole village fell into chaos.
The women hurriedly ran out to go to the fields to tell their men about this.
The old people also ran back home and took out the tools for harvesting.
Don't worry about whether it's cooked or not, the most important thing is to collect it and hide it. Otherwise, when the officers and soldiers come, the tragedy of the past few years will happen again.
They don't want to go hungry.
Unfortunately.
Even though they worked so hard, when the grain collection captain came and rummaged through it, the harvest they had worked hard for for a year was ruthlessly confiscated.
Numb, suddenly.
These ordinary people who had great expectations for the future were once again trampled into the dirt by the iron hoof of the dynasty.
The food collection team left.
Taking away the food, it also took away the energy and spirit of the villagers.
The wailing and crying in the village never stopped.
Until someone else comes.
"Folks, Wolong Mountain Canal Commander wants to find a way for us to survive. If you are willing to go, come with me!"
No one said anything. They had suffered so much from Wolong Mountain over the years, and the only one they could rely on now was Commander Qu from Wolong Mountain.
Mountain.
A middle-aged man dressed in fairy-style clothing stared angrily.
"We worked hard and never complained. We gave them whatever they asked for, one year, two years, every year. Even if we starved to death, they never showed any pity to us! The year before last, there was a war and forced food seizures. Last year, there was a war. After several years of forcibly confiscating food, the crops are not yet ripe! They are still waging war! Forcibly confiscating food!"
"How few of our grandfathers, grandmothers, brothers, and sisters have starved to death and become food on other people's plates!"
"We can't do this anymore, folks, they won't give us a good life!"
"We should strive for a peaceful life for ourselves, our wives and children, where we are no longer precarious!"
"Peace! Peace! I'll do things in peace later!"
"The Emperor of Han is dishonest! We will rebel against him!"
"Rebel him!"
"Rebel him!"
The middle-aged man with an air of immortality jumped onto a boulder, looked at the ordinary people below who were gritting their teeth, and pierced his palm with a dagger.
"I, He Jin! I swear by the gods today that I will bring peace to everyone!"
"You are still young! Good luck to the world!"
"You are still young! Good luck to the world!"
The crowd was excited, and countless people raised their arms and shouted.
On a small Wolong Mountain, all the surrounding villages are gathered.
There were no more than ten thousand people.
And such a scene.
It is happening everywhere in Han Dynasty right now.
Peace.
Countless people are shouting for peace.
All they want is peace!
