Han Hai Tang Ergui

Chapter 355

Back home, after a peaceful New Year's Eve, the angel of the Later Jin court finally arrived.

Zhang Zhao officially received a full set of ceremonial guards, big banners, and festivals from the Prince of Wuwei and the Ambassador of Hexi Longyou Jiedu.

At this time, due to the rise of commodities such as rock sugar, white sugar, cotton, and tea bricks, Liangzhou City began to inflow a large number of people. The population of the city reached more than [-].

Zhang Zhao kept the angel for a few more days because he was going to do a big job.

That is to present to the imperial court the sixteen prefectures of Guashai, West Gansu, Lianglan, Shanhe, Kuomin, Tao, Wei, and the household registration albums of the two prefectures of Yuan and Hui.

Except for Xizhou in the Western Regions and the four prefectures of Qin, Cheng, Wu, and Dang under the control of the later Jin court, these sixteen prefectures are the administrative regions of the entire Tang Hexi Longyou.

Including Huizhou and Yuanzhou controlled by the Guiyi Army, there are a total of [-] prefecture household registration atlases.

Zhang Zhao prepared to serve as the special envoy of Wuwei County King Tongyi, who was not his ancestor Song. After the mission, he formally returned the eighteen prefectures of Longyou, Hexi to the country.

what is this?This is righteousness, the righteousness of the nation!
But under the cover of righteousness, Zhang Zhao also has his own small thoughts.

If it is not the Later Jin, but the Later Tang, Later Zhou, or even the Later Liang, Zhang Zhao would not dare to do this.

Returning to the country with the household registration album is not a fluffy sentence, but it represents the recognition of the ruling power of the Central Plains Dynasty and the complete attachment.

The Guiyi Army's current status is similar to that of a foreign feudal clan, but after the household registration atlas is provided, it will instantly become a local government that is a little less independent than the Li family of the Dingnan Army and a little stronger than ordinary feudal clans.

In this case, the imperial court can justifiably order you to move the town, order you to pay tribute money at four o'clock and eighth, and select officials to serve in Longyou, Hexi.

In history, after Zhang Yichao returned to the country with the eleven prefectures in Hexi, the Tang court immediately transferred 2000 people from Yunzhou Tianping Army to Liangzhou, which instantly diluted the righteousness of the Guiyi Army in Liangzhou.

So if in other dynasties, Zhang Zhao dared to do this, the court would definitely accept it directly.

But Shi Jingtang didn't dare, because he, the emperor, got it by betraying the country, and he didn't have any sense of righteousness in it.

The late Jin court had neither righteousness nor strength.

And with Shi Jingtang's successful demonstration, the people below will follow suit. You, Shi Jingtang, can sell this country, but I can't?
Ten years later, Shi Chonggui's failure was not defeated by the Khitans, but was betrayed and subjugated by careerists who followed suit and wanted to be emperors.

Shi Jingtang's later Jin Dynasty, from its establishment to its demise, could really control Kaifeng, Luoyang and Chang'an, the territory along the Yellow River.

Shi Jingtang couldn't move any of the Jiedu envoys in other places, and if they were forced to move, they would have to fight.

Just such a short-lived dynasty with weak strength and no righteousness gave Shi Jingtang ten courages, he would not dare to take over Hexi Longyou, and he would not be stupid enough to really take over Hexi Longyou.

Zhang Zhao was still thinking about the unification of the country, but Shi Jingtang didn't think about it at all.

The son emperor is 45 this year. After saving his life, he only thought about his own death. For him, taking back Hexi Longyou was enough in name.

But to the people of the world, Zhang Zhao's actions are comparable to Zhang Yichao returning to the country with the eleven states of Hexi in the past!
Hexi Longyou is not owned by the state on and off. It has been almost 200 years, and now it has become part of the world again. What a credit!Definitely a national hero.

At least the envoys of the Later Jin Dynasty who came to deliver the decree, Shangshu Youcheng, Shangshuquan of the Ministry of Officials, Lu Dao, Deputy Envoy Shiguan Xiuzhuan, and Liu Tao, a doctor of the Ministry of Industry, burst into tears after hearing the words.

Director Lu bowed to Zhang Zhao three times after taking off his official uniform as an angel.

"Puqian heard that the king of the county once said when he left Guanzhong that a glass of turbid wine can be used for thousands of miles, so he knows that the king of the county is a loyal minister who guards the border for the country.

Today, the king of the county has presented the household registration albums of the eighteen states again, the Zhang family of Nanyang is great!

In the past, Zhang Taibao returned the eleven prefectures of Hexi to the country, and he was a model of loyal ministers in the world. Now the king of the county returns the eighteen prefectures of Longyou, Hexi to the territory, and he should be worshiped three times by his servants! "

Seeing that Director Lu was so moved, Zhang Zhao quickly stepped forward to help him up, feeling a little ashamed in his heart.

Unlike Zhang Yichao who returned the household registration atlas of the eleven prefectures of Hexi for the sake of national justice, Zhang Zhao actually had a lot of selfish intentions this time.

Because he calculated Shi Jingtang's weakness, and in order to fight for world hegemony, he deliberately used this matter to publicize his image in front of the world, so he made the move of returning the eighteen prefectures of Longyou, Hexi to the state.

Compared with Zhang Yichao, his motives seem to be so impure.

But this is a conspiracy. Anyone with a discerning eye knows what is going on, but they have to admit Zhang Zhao's deep understanding of righteousness.

"Lu Shangshu must never be like this. Since the decline of the Tang Dynasty, I, Tang'er in Longyou, Hexi, have been thinking about this day day and night.

It's a pity that Liangzhou City has not yet been restored, and there is not even a place with decent scenery. Otherwise, if you can talk about poetry and wine with two angels from the Central Plains, it will be a joy in life! "

Zhang Zhao knew shitty poetry, but he couldn't even get a sense of the mediocre rules.

He would say this just to show that Zhang Taiwei is a cultural person.

Sure enough, as soon as Zhang Zhao's words came out, director Lu and Liu Tao's eyes became more emotional.

Not to mention now, even after Zhao Kuangyin established the Northern Song Dynasty, the prime minister of the dynasty would be insulted and blackmailed by the warriors patrolling the streets by name.

Talk about wine on poetry?Ha ha!Warriors of this era are more interested in splitting people's heads open after drinking.

After being silent for a while, Liu Tao, the younger deputy envoy who had a long talk with Fan Zhi last night, gave Zhang Zhao a deep look.

"The golden water river outside Tokyo is rippling with blue waves. At dusk, the golden light on the river surface is shining, which is the grand sight of Tokyo. You must see it!

Pei Yuying once said that the king of the county is a hero in the world, both civil and military, and he is in Tokyo, waiting for you! "

Zhang Zhao took a deep look at Liu Tao, and nodded slightly. Pei Yuan was thoughtful, and this person specifically mentioned Pei Yuan, so there must be a deep meaning.

It may be said that Pei Yuan gave some details, but the time is not right now, and Zhang Zhao can't say anything else, so he just bowed his hands to Director Lu and Liu Tao with a smile on his face.

"There will be a day. When the time comes, I should have a good time with the two of you. If so, please stay in Liangzhou for a few more days. When the snow melts, I will personally lead the army to protect the angels!"

. . . . .

After Director Lu and Liu Tao went down, Zhang Zhao pondered for a while. He was considering whether he should copy more poems.

In the past, he made the matter of gaining reputation among literati a little more complicated. When thinking about problems, he always unconsciously brought into the situation of the later Song and Ming dynasties.

So I don't consciously think civil servants are a bit high, and I also feel that they are a little slippery.

But in fact, compared with the warriors at this time, the literati are better than the people at the bottom.

Someone who is proficient in writing and ink is definitely not as high as a tooth soldier who can watch and slash people.

It is very possible that this group does not need Zhang Zhao to curry favor at all. As long as he shows the characteristics of respecting literati and liking poetry, literati who have suffered all kinds of humiliation will most likely pounce on them.

There is no other, because they have lived without dignity in these five generations.

It seems that plagiarizing poetry can indeed be done!
This is the easiest way to attract talented scholars from all over the world.

Zhang Zhao thought for a while, and the guards came to report that Yan Jin, Yin Yaozi and other generals were going outside to ask for an audience.

Zhang Zhao called them here, because among the maps handed over to the eighteen states, only Shazhou, Guazhou, Liangzhou, Lanzhou, Huizhou, Yuanzhou and half of Shanzhou are in Zhang Zhao's hands.

The remaining eleven and a half states must be won through war and other means.

Especially Ganzhou Uyghur, which is next to Liangzhou and stuck between Shazhou and Liangzhou, this is the next goal that Zhang Zhao must solve.

At the same time, according to the customs and laws at this time, children must observe filial piety for their parents for three years, but for grandchildren, there are not as strict requirements as in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, let alone the five dynasties.Almost all personal.

It has been more than a year since Cao Yijinjing passed away, and Cao Nineniang Yanxi is almost 19 years old. If she really wants to keep her filial piety for three years, she will be 21 years old.

At this time, it would be embarrassing for both parties to marry if they were married in their twenties.

Cao Yuanshen has written several times, asking Zhang Zhao to marry Cao Yanxi as soon as possible, so Zhang Zhao's marriage must also be put on the agenda.

Then the Ganzhou Uighur must be taken away. You can't let King Zhang marry a wife, and you have to detour through the desert!

Moreover, marrying Cao Yanxi as soon as possible also has other benefits.

The main reason is to help Zhang Zhao better tap the potential of the Guiyi Army in the two states of Guazhou. After all, there are only [-] to [-] people in the two states of Guasha.

Among them, Tang'er, who has a population of [-] to [-], was moved to Guasha two states together with the retreat of the Guiyi Army in the past.

These 200,000 to [-] Tanger, together with the Sinicized Sogdians and Tuyuhun people, totaled close to [-] people, squeezed into the small Guasha two states, and their lives were miserable.

And Zhang Chao just lacked enough Tang'er to disperse the guards to Liangzhou, Lanzhou, Weizhou and other places.

Zhang Zhao decided to move them out of the two prefectures of Guasha as soon as they got married.

Moreover, there are only two nodes left in the Silk Road Xiaoxun he created, which are not under control.

One is Ganzhou, which is stuck between Shazhou and Liangzhou, and the second is Weizhou, which is stuck on the territory of the Xiongwu Army in Lanzhou and Qinzhou.

To complete his small cycle, these two places must be in the hands.

There are many Han people in Weizhou, and Zhang Chao also has the title of righteousness in his hands. It should be said that a few hundred cavalry can handle it. The only one who can still struggle is the Uighurs in Ganzhou.

While Zhang Zhao summoned Yan Jin and others to make a plan, he waited for the soldiers to finish their one-month vacation.

After that, the Guiyi Army will start training. Zhang Zhao decided to take down Ganzhou just before May!
