As Murong Cheng returned to Yangzhou, the war in Qi became more and more fierce. Especially the transactions between the Tang army, Yanzhou army and Zhao army made the actions of various princes more intense.

Although all the princes were suspicious of the secret relationship between the Yanzhou army and the Zhao army, there was no substantial evidence and it could not explain anything. Of course, at this moment, the chaos of war became like this. Even if the Yanzhou army and the Zhao army had a relationship, they

Nothing can be done anymore.

The fierce war represents the beginning of another round of refugee tide. Refugees in Yangzhou, Jingzhou and other places have gradually entered Yuzhou, Yanzhou and other places that have gradually stabilized.

Feng Ziming, Yuzhou and Yanzhou local officials also began to become nervous, mobilizing local governments and border garrisons to begin to accept and arrange refugees. As this was estimated and prepared for this, the resettlement of refugees began to be carried out in an orderly manner.

At this time, Zhao Xun had left Yanzhou and appeared in Bingzhou.

Returning to Bingzhou again, the scene here is very different from the past. The refugees who were surviving in the past have now been properly resettled. The desolate fields in the past have now become green. The people who saw a peaceful and stable life, Zhao

Xun couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

In Jinyang City, the Governor of Bingzhou Cheng Qingming reported the current situation in Bingzhou. He also had a further understanding of Bingzhou. Since the Zhao army took Bingzhou and reached a trade agreement with Situ Lei, Bingzhou has begun to enter the road of rapid recovery and development.

.Countless refugees poured into Bingzhou from the south and settled in Bingzhou.

With the support of the entire Zhao army, the people's livelihood in Bingzhou was quickly restored. The trade between merchants in Zhao also made Bingzhou gradually flourish. Although it was not as good as other prefectures in Zhao, it was the earliest one.

It will be much better. In this regard, both the original people of Bingzhou and those who migrated from other places are full of hope for the future.

"It seems that your place is doing well! It's much better than before." Zhao Xun said with a smile when he heard the report from Qingming.

Cheng Qingming said with a smile: "Speaking of this, there is a huge force behind it, otherwise it would be so fast. At the beginning, I don't know how much supplies to transport every day, and it's costing

How much money? The strong support of the lord is the most important factor in Bingzhou's recovery so quickly."

Cheng Qingming said that this is true. This place of Bingzhou, especially the northern part of Bingzhou, was not as good as that of Cao Gang in the past. Coupled with the disasters of the Turks, the people could be said to be living in dire straits. Later, after recapturing this place

Youzhou has allocated a huge amount of money and grain to support the infrastructure here.

"How is the spring plowing in Bingzhou? Fields are the basis for the survival of the people. As long as they have fields and food, there will be no problems, and there will be no refugees or bandits."

Cheng Qingming said in a deep voice: "Everything has been completed. For the sake of farming the fields, the government organized a large number of prisoners to build rivers and water conservancy projects. Now, a large number of Turkic slaves are escorted back every few days.

Part of it is allocated in Xiazhou, part of it is allocated in Bingzhou, and it is specifically responsible for water conservancy and Chidao construction."

"In addition, the government has also allocated a lot of agricultural tools and seeds to the people through loans to let them plow them in spring. Now, there is another favorable condition in Bingzhou and Xiazhou, that is, we can plunder and trade through robbery and trade.

The way to obtain livestock from northern Turkic tribes. Among them, plowing ox is an important and advantageous tool."

"So are there any refugees entering the south in the near future? Will the Yong army let it go?"

"There are still refugees recently, but there are much fewer refugees than before the age of the year. Moreover, most of the people entering the country are elderly, weak, women and children. Because the Yong army took advantage of the battle between Murong Cheng and Xuzhou Army, Tang Army and Yanzhou Army. This time, the Yong army took advantage of the battle between Murong Cheng and Xuzhou Army, Tang Army and Yanzhou Army.

, and wanted to seize the southwest part of Qi. Therefore, not only moved the center of gravity westward, but also recruited young and strong soldiers as soldiers. Therefore, all the young and strong people among the refugees had been summoned by the Yong army. However, the land of Liangzhou

However, many people have moved here. In recent months, there have been tens of thousands of refugees in Liangzhou alone.”

Zhao Xun frowned slightly and said, "It seems that Situ Lei treats us as a shelter. He takes young and strong people as soldiers, but gives us the elderly, weak, women and children as burdens. He can obtain soldiers.

, Please ask these burdens and also create pressure on us to avoid our thoughts about Chang'an and other places in Yongzhou."

Cheng Qingming said in a deep voice: "Do we stop accepting refugees? These elderly, weak, women and children are all young and young, and they are all soldiers of Yong's army in their middle ages. It is normal for us to refuse to accept them."

These people shook their heads and said, "No, continue to accept it. Since these elderly, weak, women and children have become refugees, it means that they have lost contact with the young and strong family. The people are innocent. If we cut off their way to survive, then...

…”

"What's going on in Liangzhou? Now the Yong army is in an active attack, and the refugees should have decreased. As for Liangzhou, it has always been a peaceful situation. Why did the refugees suddenly increase?"

Cheng Qingming frowned and said, "It seems that it was because the Western Regions attacked Liangzhou. The specific situation is not clear. Liangzhou is originally a place where there are many Qiang and Hu, and there are quite a conflict between Hu and Han. Now the Grand Governor of Liangzhou has no time to take care of it.

People's livelihood is just thinking about the position of King Yong, the military is invincible and the number of refugees is increasing."

"Liangzhou...Liangzhou..." Hearing this, Zhao Xun remembered the incident of Murong Cheng sending someone to join forces with him. He asked the Navy to leave a message to the Yangzhou Navy, saying that Zhao's army was willing to join forces with him and attack Situ Lei.

In fact, the original intention was just to give Murong Cheng confidence to fight back with ruthlessness. As for whether to attack Liangzhou, the final decision has not been made. However, it seems that Liangzhou really needs to be resolved.

"The countries in the Western Regions? These guys who bully the weak and fear the strong will deal with them sooner or later!" Zhao Xun whispered coldly.

"For this, my subordinates can only express a pity for the future of the countries in the Western Regions!" Cheng Qingming said with a smile. He knew Zhao Xun. His lord has always been accustomed to speaking in a tough manner, and these Western Regions have been the same.

The country is afraid it will be disaster.

Zhao Xun did not stay in Bingzhou for long, and then went to Xiazhou. Xiazhou, a newly established state, is also a newly included area under the jurisdiction of the Zhao army. Here, the former large number of Qiang and Hu tribes are now

The smoke disappeared. Countless Qiang and Hu tribes were moved to various states in Zhao, or became slaves, building cities, roads and water conservancy projects in Xiazhou and Bingzhou. The huge number of Han people moved to the north and became this defense.

A new owner of more than a thousand miles.

Compared with Bingzhou, this place is a bit dilapidated. However, as countless cities and towns are gradually being built, it will sooner or later flourish. Walking along the road, the fields on both sides of the road are also rendered green. Some are not suitable.

The planting place is also covered with small green trees. This is where Zhao Xun ordered trees to be planted.

In Xiazhou, Li Chenfeng led the 70,000 Zhao troops from the first, third and fourth towns to garrison here. They and the four armies of the eight imperial guards in northern Bingzhou formed the northern defense line of Zhao. Of course,

At this moment, whether it is Xiazhou or Bingzhou, the border line has been extended to the north by a hundred miles. Sixteen cities have been built in the entire Xiazhou and northern Bingzhou, and they have been trained horizontally.

"Meet the lord!"

In Xiazhou City, Zhao Xun met the governor of Xiazhou, the appeasement envoy, the tax envoy and Zhang Yuanjing, who coordinated the overall situation in the north.

"Everyone is free!" Zhao Xun said indifferently, "Thank you all for your hard work!"

"Zhang Yuanjing, you should be the first to defend against the Turks and the outside world!" After everyone sat down, Zhao Xun said to Zhang Yuanjing who was slightly dark with a smile.

Zhang Yuanjing said respectfully: "Subordinate..."

"No need to refuse, it's yours, it's yours, and no one can take it away!" Zhao Xun waved his hand and stopped what Zhang Yuanjing wanted to say, and then said, "Tell me about the situation in the Turkic side."

After Zhang Yuanjing's remarks, Zhao Xun also understood the situation of the Turkic invasion. He also made new preparations to recover more than a hundred tribes within hundreds of miles one by one. Three lines of defense were established, and the nine major ones were founded at the outermost level.

The tribe, followed by more than 30 tribes in charge of the Zhao army, and the innermost part was the Zhao army.

However, under the organization of its leader Xue Nao Khan, the Turks now became more and more fierce in the battle. Xue Nao Khan had many soldiers and a wide range of generals, while the nine tribes occupied the benefits of weapons, armor and equipment and sufficient food. Both sides fought from the beginning.

The nine tribes began to fall into a disadvantage as Xue Nao Khan's army increased.

"Now, if our army had not participated in the war, the nine tribes could not resist Xue Nakhan's army?"

"Yes, the Turks have a very wide territory and a large number of tribes. As time goes by, the more soldiers Xue Nakhan can recruit. Now, the combined forces of the nine tribes are only more than tens of thousands.

Xue Nai Khan's troops had more than 300,000 troops, including his royal court's troops, it was estimated that there were about 500,000. These were already comparable to our Zhao army." Zhang Yuanjing said with a wry smile.

"So much?" Zhao Xun was also shocked.

"But fortunately, with our support, weapons, equipment, food, and the nine tribes are far superior to Xue Nakkhan, and they will not collapse at once. The only regret is that the nine tribes have been more than a thousand miles long.

On the long border line, the troops were dispersed, and they were not the enemy of Xue Nao Khan. Now, Xue Nao Khan concentrated his troops north of the Tumen tribe in the north of the north of the junction of Xiazhou and Bingzhou, intending to break through this tribe so as to destroy it.

The interception of the nine tribes has entered our situation.”

"The Tumen tribe is the center of the nine tribes, and it is also a tribe with our full authority. On weekdays, all the nine tribes are held here. Xue Nakhan knew the importance of this place, so he was ready to take it down first.

General Li Chenfeng also rushed to this place in person to guard the area, Xue Nak Khan. It is also because of this that General Li Chenfeng did not come to meet his lord."

"I didn't expect the situation to change very quickly!" Zhao Xun said softly, and then said to Zhang Yuanjing: "Since that's the case, I will personally rush to the Tumen tribe. I want to see, Xue Nai Khan can take revenge.

How many casualties will be paid for in the revenge of Bingzhou?"

Zhao Xun led 20,000 personal guards to the Tumen tribe. When he arrived, Li Chenfeng had already led his army to attack the grassland north and raided the tribe under Xue Nao Khan.

There were more than 25,000 tribal warriors in the Tumen tribe, plus 10,000 people stationed by the Zhao army, a total of more than 35,000 people. This time, Li Chenfeng went out and took away more than 15,000 good cavalrymen.

scholar.

Inquiry, Xue Na Khan sent troops to attack many times recently, and several tribe soldiers were extremely fierce. This time, Li Chenfeng was preparing to attack the headquarters of these tribes so that they could also know that they would serve Xue Na Khan.

, there will be no good fruits to eat.

"Uncle Li is the same. As the commander of the first army, he still can't calm down!" After learning about the situation, Zhao Xun just said lightly. However, he also knew that Li Chenfeng was the captain of the border army and was from other places.

Fighting is also common.

"Send the order to take the banner of this king and let the other party focus here!"

"Tell the soldiers of the first, third, and fourth third towns that they gather here."

"Transfer to the first, second, third and fourth troops of the Imperial Guards in the north of Bingzhou to push them to the grassland and attack freely."

"Transfer orders to the other eight tribes, advance northward, and attack Xue Na Khan's army from the flanks. If you gain anything, I will reward you with me!"

Zhao Xun issued several military orders in a row, all of which were filled with fierce murderous intent.

"Master, are you?" Zhang Yuanjing said in a panic.

"Since Xue Nai Khan wants to fight with us, then we will fight with him. Since its establishment, I, Da Zhao, have been afraid of it today. The tribe that we wiped out, I don't know that Fanfan, his Turkic tribe will be

One of them.”

The Moran tribe is a medium-sized tribe five hundred miles northwest of the Tumen tribe. It has always been famous for its strong combat power.

The tribe has a population of about 80,000, and it is said to have 40,000 string control men. However, 20,000 of them were all recruited by Xue Nakhan and appeared in Xue Nakhan's army.

The sky gradually darkened, and it suddenly started to rain heavily. Lightning and thunder sounded, and all things were vented. The raindrops that kept falling added a bit of chill to the grassland. The Moran tribe members encircled the cattle and horses early on.
