An Ziluo heard Liu Heng's words and had no doubt that he was there.

He had set foot in Khotan before and knew that Liu Heng's words were true.

Yuanshanbe is probably the same as Khotan.

"Aren't you worried about Brother Kou Xian's safety?"

An Ziluo no longer doubted whether there was something fishy about the Yuanshan tribe's attachment to the Song Dynasty. Seeing that there was no expression on Liu Heng's face, he asked doubtfully.

Liu Heng forced a sad expression on his face and whispered: "Worried..."

Seeing this, An Ziluo nodded slowly.

While An Ziluo and Liu Heng were talking, Kou Ji and his party had already arrived at the gate of Danshan City.

On Danshan City.

Zhang Yuan asked loudly: "But the Song envoy will do it in person?"

Kou Ji sat on the horse, raised his head, and said calmly: "Not bad..."

Zhang Yuan handed over his hand and said, "Didn't you ask for advice?"

Kou Ji said loudly: "Kou Ji is the powerful official of the Song Dynasty, Cao Shangshu, the pacifier of the states in the Western Regions."

Zhang Yuanzuo suddenly realized, "It turns out to be Kou Angel. Open the city gate and invite Kou Angel to enter!"

Under Zhang Yuan's shout, the gate of Danshan City was opened.

Kou Ji and his party rode into Danshan City.

Behind the city gate.

Two thousand people all knelt on the ground.

There was no shouting or shouting.

They all just lowered their heads.

Kou Jigao sat on the horse and looked at them calmly.

It didn't take long.

Zhang Yuan and Yu You led 3,000 people and drove them down from the top of the city.

After getting off the city wall, the three thousand soldiers, followed by the other two thousand soldiers, all knelt on the ground.

Zhang Yuan knelt and took the lead.

There was only one person named Yuyu, standing with his hands folded.

Zhang Yuan lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "The villain Zhang Yuan has met the young master."

"I have met the young master..."

More than 5,000 people spoke out in unison.

The voice is rich and deep.

Kou Ji looked at them one by one and said calmly: "Get up."

More than five thousand people stood up together.

Kou Ji waited until they got up and said, "Have you dealt with the horse thieves in the city?"

Zhang Yuan cupped his hands and said: "As far as I know, young master, all the horse thieves in the city have been killed."

Kou Ji nodded slowly and said, "Have you finished packing your luggage?"

Zhang Yuandao said: "We have enough food and clothing to load the car, so we can go on an expedition with the young master at any time."

Kou Ji glanced around the five thousand soldiers and said: "From now on, you are the soldiers of the Yuanshan tribe who are close to me in the Song Dynasty. This time you accompany me to escort the military supplies to Shazhou, and you are also in order to make good friends with me.

Song Dynasty.

You can hear me clearly."

Five thousand soldiers all bowed and saluted.

Kou Ji nodded with satisfaction and said: "The horse patrol guards who have been fighting in the Western Region for two years are out."

Immediately.

Three thousand people slowly stepped out.

Kou Ji ordered: "From now on, you will return to the commander of the patrol horse guard beside me and go into battle wearing armor."

Kou Ji looked at the remaining patrolling horse guards and continued: "Of the remaining two thousand people, one thousand people led a hundred tigers to run with the army. The other one thousand people swept the battlefield of Danshan City and buried you.

After many years of capture in the Western Region, hurry up and catch up with the team."

"Here..."

"In order to prevent the people of Qingtang from seeing the flaw, the city will be closed tonight. After we leave, Danshan City will be burned down."

"..."

Hearing this, Zhang Yuan suddenly raised his head and looked at Kou Ji in disbelief.

"Young Master..."

Kou Ji's words are not consistent with what he first told Zhang Yuan in the Song Dynasty, at the border of Qingtang.

Kou Ji interrupted Zhang Yuan's words and said: "The situation in Shazhou is very critical. I am in urgent need of manpower, so I have to take all of you away. Once the mountain city is burned down, you don't have to worry about not having a place to live in the Western Region.

I have already discussed with Qingtang. After we arrive in Shazhou, we will send Yang Wenguang to lead the troops south. Together with Qingtang's troops, they will attack from the north and the south and return to Hehe.

As a force dependent on the Song Dynasty, if you contribute when the Song Dynasty rushes to aid Shazhou and attack Huangtou Huihe, the Song Dynasty will definitely not treat you badly.

By then, much of the Huangtou Huihe territory occupied by the Song Dynasty will be handed over to you for management."

Zhang Yuan was shocked when he heard what Kou Ji said.

If what Kou Ji said is true, then their grassroots force will become a force comparable to the Shazhou Uighurs after the war.

In a place like the Western Region, where there are many countries, no one would care if we call ourselves one country.

As long as they can firmly hold on to the territory they occupy in Huangtou Huihe.

Zhang Yuan saluted Kou Ji respectfully, "Here..."

Kou Ji sighed secretly.

He is unwilling to do anything like splitting the land and sealing off the borders.

But he had to do it.

He did this for two purposes.

The first purpose is to fear that after the territory of Huangtou Uihe is conquered, those in the court will not include Huangtou Uihe into the territory of the Song Dynasty because the territory of Huangtou Uihe is too far away, and will choose to support a close person in Huangtou Uihe.

The governance of the small Huangtou Huihe tribe in the Song Dynasty.

Kou Ji has been fighting with the sticks in the court for so long, and he knows the nature of the sticks in the court.

In their eyes, they only have the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, not the Western Regions.

In their eyes, the Sixteenth State of Yanyun is territory that must be taken back.

But the Western Regions are dispensable in their eyes.

When Cao Wei was in the northwest, he defeated Qingtang several times and accepted many small tribes from Qingtang.

When Cao Wei was in the northwest, he had many opportunities to incorporate most of Qingtang's territory into the territory of the Song Dynasty.

But those stickmen in the court never cherished this opportunity.

For example, when Li Lizun, a monk from Zongzong, took Jiao Siluo hostage to order the Tibetan tribes.

Cao Wei defeated the soldiers and horses of various Tibetan tribes summoned by Zongge monk Li Lizun several times.

If you move your feet a little, you can expand your territory in Qingtang.

However.

The decision-makers in the court would promptly tell Cao Wei to stop whenever Cao Wei drove back the Qingtang troops.

In time, Kou Ji felt that they were Qingtang's spies who had penetrated into the Song Dynasty.

Kou Ji didn't want to see this kind of scene happen again, so the newly-established Yuanshan Department was his backup plan.

If those stickmen in the court were really generous enough to send the territories conquered by the Song Dynasty soldiers and horses, Kou Ji would definitely let the Yuanshan tribe take over.

Giving to others is also giving, and giving to oneself is also giving.

Why don't you take advantage of your own people?

The second purpose is to bury a mine to protect the Qingtang.

If one day there is a conflict between Qingtang and the Song Dynasty, the Yuanshan tribe will explode behind Qingtang at the critical moment.

Qingtang will definitely be extremely cool.

After Kou Ji saluted Zhang Yuan, he told the leader of the patrolling horse guards behind him: "Send two people back and tell An Ziluo and Liu Heng outside the city to lead their troops back to the camp.

The leader of the Yuanshan tribe has sincerely attached himself to me, the Song Dynasty. I want to accompany the leader of the Yuanshan tribe to a banquet.

Will go back later.”

The leader of the horse guards received the order and immediately sent two men of the horse guards out of the city to spread the message.

Kou Ji told Zhang Yuan and others: "Send some people to defend the city and some to clean up the battlefield."

Zhang Yuan agreed and left the matter to Yuyou.

Zhang Yuan himself took Kou Ji to the city lord's mansion.

Not long after Kou Ji and Zhang Yuan left.

The leader of the horse patrol shouted to the soldiers who were dispersing: "That brat shot me with an arrow just now? Are you tired of living?"
