Han Hai Tang Ergui

Chapter 199

There are 74 pieces of various gold wares, [-] pieces of jade wares, and the total value of silver collars is about [-] guan. All kinds of copper coins are useless, because many of them have rotted and it is difficult to count them, but they will probably not exceed [-] guan.

This is the treasure from the Loyalty Treasury. It can be seen that in the last years of the Anxi Army and Dayun Temple, the two highest institutions of the Tang Dynasty controlling the Western Regions, life was really difficult.

Of course, there are not many gold and silver treasures, but there are many others, mainly in terms of armaments.

Among them, there are more than [-] sets of nails, but almost all the ropes have rotted and fallen off, and the leaves of the nails have also been rusted, so it will take a certain amount of time to repair them before they can be used.

In addition to armor, there are more than one hundred sets of chain armor in the warehouse, which is Chinese-style chain armor.

These are all made of fine iron, and they are the best preserved. When they were taken out, the lard and mutton oil on the oily paper that wrapped the ring lock armor was even a little sticky to your hands.

In addition to the Chinese-style chain mail, there are more than [-] sets of Persian-style chain mail. Judging from the style, it should be from the Sasanian Persian period, and the preservation is relatively good. It can be used after repairing.

The total of five hundred sets of armor surprised Zhang Zhao the most, because it happened to match the cloth face armor he made.

Zhang Zhao deliberately tried it. He asked the wild bear to wear a padded jacket, then a ring lock armor, and a cloth mask on the outside, and then let Dunzhu hold a spear and ax to chop and stab.

Although Man Xiong grinned in pain, Dunzhu said that even if he was not facing a fierce man like Man Xiong, but an ordinary soldier, he would probably have to spend a lot of energy and strength to defeat him.

Even before his strength is exhausted, such a soldier is almost invincible.

As for other miscellaneous supplies, including several thousand catties of smelted iron bars and iron blocks, long spears that rotted so that only the tip of the spear can be used, some rusty horizontal knives, arrowheads, etc., they are all being sorted out nervously.

After these things were released, Li Shengtian and Zhang Zhao could each take some of them, and the most critical one hundred sets of ring armor and more than three hundred sets of chain mail belonged to Zhang Zhao.

However, although Li Shengtian didn't say anything, Zhang Zhao knew that there were conditions, that is, he promised to win the Khanna and go to Tianzhu to make a fortune, as well as complete the internal circulation of the trumpet in Khotan Jin Kingdom. I want him to do it.

After taking out the treasures from the Zhongzhen Treasury and dividing the armor and iron, Zhang Zhao left. As for the gold and silver collars, he didn't even look at them.

Because he is very clear about the character of this uncle, the emperor, and now Li Shengtian knows his ambition, and the marriage contract between the third generation of the Li family and the second generation of the Zhang family has also been established. When he returns east, Li Shengtian will definitely not Treat him badly with gold and silver.

. . . .

As soon as he returned to Shule, there were two very important matters waiting for Zhang Zhao to deal with.

The first thing is to open the mansion. Since Li Shengtian knew about Zhang Zhao's ambition and decided to invest in Zhang Zhao, there is no need to wait for the return of the mansion to open the mansion.

Li Shengtian said, open it now, open it hard, and follow the regulations of the Prince of Tang Dynasty.

According to the system of the Tang Dynasty, the royal palace set up the military officers who participated in the army, the long history, the cao cao (gongcao, cangcao, household cao, Bingcao, etc.), the master book, the guards, the marriage office and the tent house.

But Zhang Zhao's is simpler. He doesn't need the institutions of Wei Shuai, Marriage Office and Accountant Office.

Because of the need to connect with the Guiyi Army, Zhang Zhao's current military organization is based on the Guiyi Army's organization, the pattern of town-army-battalion-capital-general-team-fire.

So what needs to be opened to open the government is the remaining civil service system.

Among them, the post of recorder to join the army is in charge of the general record of all Cao Wenbo, and the post of playing good and evil.

To put it bluntly, if you compare the palace to an imperial court, the record and joining the army are the real confidantes of the king, who can manage everything, and can intervene in everything, it depends on the will of the lord.

It's a bit like the eunuch, the leader of the chief inspector of ceremonies in the Ming Dynasty, so Zhang Zhao simply didn't set it up, because he currently doesn't have such a suitable candidate.

And Chang Shi is the prime minister who founded the mansion. When the kings surnamed Li in the Tang Dynasty were young or did not go to the feudal domain for other reasons, Chang Shi always performed the feudal affairs on their behalf.

Originally, Zhang Zhao didn't want to set up this official position, also because he didn't have a good candidate, but after thinking about it, he still appointed Zhang Zhong as the chief history of the palace.

Because everyone knows that the relationship between Zhang Zhong and Zhang Zhao is his long history, and no one dares to disagree.

But at the same time, they knew Zhang Zhong's ability. The old Zhang Zhong couldn't be a long history at all. This long history must be a decoration, and King Zhang himself was responsible for the matter.

In this way, the people below will have goals. It is impossible for the king to do long-term affairs by himself for a long time. Whoever is capable and quick in handling things will be able to succeed in the position.

As for the cao's joining the army, this is the official position that Zhang Zhao really wants to set up.

Wu Yuan'er, who has been following Zhang Zhao, obtained the two key positions of Gong Cao and Bing Cao Joining the Army.

From then on, Wu Yuan'er was in charge of the soldiers' meritorious service, compensation for casualties, distribution of ordnance and other matters.

Guo Tiance, who had just done a good job in printing "The Complete Biography of the Heroes of the Tang Dynasty", and quickly completed the task, got the position of Hu Cao joining the army.

However, Zhang Zhao's household registration is not much now, but he still has a lot of money. He got more than [-] guan from the Shule Palace alone.

King Zhang is now a real bare-bones king. It doesn't mean that he has no money and no one, but that he has almost no money left.

All the assets, even those given to him by Li Shengtian, were all included in Zhang Zhao's public account, otherwise he would not be able to support so many people.

Of course, it will be a matter of time before the public and private are separated. The Cao family and Cao Yanmian have already begun to take over.

Cangcao's joining the army was awarded to Zhu Qingquan. This position of guarding the house is most suitable for him, a descendant of the Anxi Army that Zhang Zhao himself recruited from the Khotan King City.

In addition to his ability to write and count, the family also has only one grandson who is still studying with Zhang Zhao and has been adopted as a foster son. Loyalty is no problem.

In the end, Cao Yanming got a job as an engineer to join the army, which can be regarded as the official determination of Huolei Ya, the status of the gunpowder department. In addition to the work of researching gunpowder, the engineer also had to undertake the work of building armor and other tasks.

At this point, the opening of the mansion is completed, everyone has their own positions, and most of the institutions of King Zhang's small court have been established. Although the sparrow is small, it has all internal organs.

After the opening of the government is completed, the second thing is to attack Bahana.

Zhang Zhao's official opening ceremony was just finished, and before he had time to say a few words to Cao Yanmian and Guo Wan'er who were in the backyard, Li Qilang came directly to Zhang Zhao's mansion with the support of several guards.

A wooden box was lifted by Li Qilang and handed to Zhang Zhao. It was the one that Zheng Shouli gave to Ma Yaozi, and it contained the treasure map of the treasure house belonging to the Xue family.

Of course, Ma Yaozi and Yang Shouli didn't know that Zhang Zhao had brought out the Zhongzhen Treasury, so they forced Li Qilang to travel day and night, and drove him to Shule at such a speed that he almost ran to death.

"Your Majesty, the three surnames Zheng, Yang, and Xue built a city on the northern mountain of Bahana State, called New Kucha, with a total of 77 inhabitants.

Among them, there are 51 adult males, all of whom are willing to follow the king back to the east. In addition, with the help of various tribes in Beishan, the ancient roads to and from Bahana have also been explored. "

After taking a sip of honey water, Li Qilang finally recovered his breath, and he began to tell a little bit about the thrilling passages on the way to find the three families in Xinqiuzi.

When Li Qilang said that New Kucha was besieged, and everyone on the mountain was almost cut off from drinking water for two days, Zhang Zhao's back was covered in white sweat.

so close!It's really dangerous!If it is a few more nights, New Kucha will definitely be breached, the old and the weak will be slaughtered, and the young and strong women will be taken away. It will be too late to regret!

This is the real Tang'er, there are more than [-] people, and they are all willing to follow him back to the east. For Zhang Zhao, it is extremely precious.

"Qilang has worked really hard. I never thought that these two idiots, Ma Yaozi and Shanzhu, can use their brains. That's great!" Zhang Zhao asked happily after a few words of praise.

"How is the road condition on the ancient road to and from Bahana? Is it still passable? Did you take this road when you came back?"

"It's still passable, I came back from this ancient road with a few Hu'er from the Beishan tribe.

The ancient road is very wide, not only can horses pass, but also more than eight people can pass in parallel, and horse-drawn carriages can also pass. "

Li Qilang quickly nodded and replied, "However, the road conditions are a bit bad. The thief Yu Supu had already thought of becoming king when Saktu led his army back to Shule and was about to attack Suiye.

Therefore, after killing the cronies left behind by Saktu, he used the method of destroying mountains to close several key road sections, and also destroyed the post stations and grain stores set up along the way by Saktu.

When the servant came back from the ancient road, he didn't bring enough dry food and almost died of starvation. Fortunately, he beat a yellow sheep on the way and survived. But a few people can do it, and an army can't. "

Zhang Zhaopo was a little speechless, this Saktu, what kind of eyes do you have!The governor who stayed behind at Bahana turned out to be a cruel and merciless boy.

Damn, thousands of miles of ancient roads are desolate and uninhabited, and the mountains are deliberately collapsed to block the road, so how can I get there?

"What is the combat effectiveness of the false governor Yusupu's army? Can it have the combat effectiveness of the Gulam guards in Saktu under the city of Polu Prefecture?" This question is very critical, and it is related to what action Zhang Zhao should take.

Li Qilang thought for a while before hesitatingly said: "The combat power should be very poor, at least the soldiers who besieged Xinkucha were almost all pulled directly from the fields and pastures, and only officers have armor.

The general had questioned the captured officers, who belonged to the Iqta infantry that had been raised by the Burkes.

In the two big cities of Andukang and Kesai City, there are some troops with the title of Gulam, but it is said that their combat effectiveness is not very good.

Because the Gulam with the best combat effectiveness are all Saktu's confidantes, except for a small number of them who are willing to take refuge, most of them were eliminated by Yu Supu looking for an opportunity.

It is said that Yu Supu killed dozens of officers and their guards at a time during the banquet in Kesai City. "

what!This is good news!

Zhang Zhao grinned, this Yu Supu is still a ruthless person!

In history, it seems that after Saktu occupied the Khan, it was indeed quickly taken back by Saman Persia.

The two sides saw each other for more than ten years in the end, and it was finally firmly controlled by Saktu. It seems that Yu Supu has made a lot of "efforts".

"Panquan! Qiongreduojin! Shi Chongmin!" After thinking for a while, Zhang Zhao made an arrangement.

"Fanquan led the three generals from the right of Shandu with one hundred soldiers, Qiongre Duojin led the third general of Youyidu with one hundred elite cavalry, plus 200 people from Jindu as the vanguard, with Panquan at the head.

You should first repair the roads leading in and out of the ancient road of Bahana, especially the road blocked by Yusupu. After leaving the Taniguchi, look for dangerous places and set up strongholds. "

"Here! The last general obeys the order!" The three hurried out and crossed their hands to accept the order.

Although they were all generals, Fan Quan was Zhang Zhao's personal bodyguard. Of course, Qiong Re Duojin would not dare to compete with Fan Quan, let alone Shi Chongmin, who had a lower status.

But this also reminded Zhang Zhao that he had to hurry back to the east!Otherwise, even rank officials can't get these things.

"Guo Canjun, come with me to Wangcheng and meet the Great Sage Emperor."

In the military, you can let yourself be the vanguard, but it is Li Shengtian's business to set up supply points and transfer issues for the army along the way.
