Chapter 345 Arrangements for the General Direction of the Western Regions (4K)

"Here, 28 soldiers and horses, isn't that too much?"

After Liu Ju counted all the soldiers and horses in detail, he was a little bit tongue-tied.

Huo Shan turned his head to look at him, and then at Huo Guang:
"A lot?"

"There are some."

"It's okay, not much, the situation in the Western Regions is different from my big man, and the situation of the people in these six counties is also different.

The Han people in the six groups are all military households. They put down their swords and become civilians, and take up their swords and become soldiers.

As for other Huns, Wusun, Dawan and other alien races, the situation is similar. They are all nomads.

And my plan is that soldiers from all over the country will be stationed for rotation. If there are two rotations, there will be only 14, and it will be even less during the busy season.

In the Western Regions, where there are many countries, there are more soldiers and horses, but 28 is indeed a lot. After the war to destroy the Huns, let's slowly look at the arrangements. "

Huo Shan knew what Liu Ju was thinking, and he was afraid that something would happen if the soldiers in the Western Regions would support themselves in the future.

But this kind of thing does not depend on how many troops Huo Shan arranges. The sky is high and the emperor is far away.

The six groups of people are all in a state of being soldiers.

Although Liu Ju is the crown prince, he is the king, and Huo Shan is the minister, but Huo Shan has much more rights than him.

Although Huo Shan controls half of the big man and everything in the entire Western Region, the world still belongs to the old Liu family.

However, don't forget one thing, that is the Snake Slaying Sword in Huo Shan's hand.

Speaking of which, although the Snake Slaying Sword is very meaningful, it is just an ordinary sword, so the person holding the sword is the last to be seen.

An ordinary person holding a Snake Slaying Sword is still useless.

But Huo Shan held the sword, if he was determined to kill Liu Shi, the others could only watch.

In today's army, it is estimated that if Huo Shan does this, other people will persuade him, but no more than one and a half people dare to stop him.

And this one is half Huo Guang and half Sima Qian.

Huo Guang will definitely stop him, he will not let Huo Shan do such a thing, he is a proper Hanchen.

Although Sima Qian is a Hanchen, there is something more important in his mind than being a Hanchen, and that is the obsession of their Sima family, to compile history books.

As for other people, including Zhang Anshi and others, they will definitely be blocked, but they will not be blocked desperately.

Therefore, in the Western Regions, the crown prince Liu Ju has no right to speak. Huo Shan gave him his right to speak, so even if he objects, it is useless.

As for the issue of the master of high meritorious service, Huo Shan never considered it.

Not only Huo Shan, Liu Che, Liu Ju and others never considered this issue.

"Next is the diplomatic situation. Diplomacy is very important in the Western Regions, and this matter should be left to the envoys of various countries.

Although they didn't meet my expectations this time, they are strategists and the children of famous families are not very good at using them.

But they are much better than the group of Da Honglu, so there is no one but them.

However, what they are going to do next will probably have good results. After all, a weak country has no diplomacy, and I am a big man in the kingdom of heaven. "

Huo Shan is not going to talk about farming and grazing, because this is very simple.

According to the previous strategy of farming, the land should be divided, and the wasteland should be opened up, and the grazing should be grazing.

The arrangement and planning of these things are handled by his own subordinates, and Huo Shan only needs to set the general direction.

If there are no details, Huo Shan can't finish it even if he is exhausted.

"The last thing is the business situation. How the six counties can prosper as soon as possible depends on the business.

The effect of farming and grazing is too slow, and there must be a shortage of food and grass in the past few years, and it is necessary to purchase from countries in the Western Regions, which requires a lot of money
Therefore, the business of the Western Regions cannot be compared with that of the Dahan.

However, there are trade routes here, so the situation is relatively simple. Now that the Western Regions have been opened up, and there is no restriction in the Han Dynasty, the caravans of the Han Dynasty alone are probably endless like crucian carp crossing the river. "

The basic tone has been set for these things, and the remaining details will be added slowly in the future.

Regarding the business situation, Huo Shan also had some thoughts in his mind.

To be honest, sometimes there are too many territories, which is also an annoyance. The six counties are all one family. Who should be the main business?
But in fact, no matter which county is the head of development, he is the meat in the big man's pot.

The idea in Huo Shan's heart is that according to the geographical location, the location of Dawan is very important, and a border market will be set up here as a commercial distribution and trading place.

Dawan is in the west, and Yiwu in the east is the same.

As for the rest of the Westernization, two towns and three counties, caravans passing by will naturally lead to prosperity.

As for why the caravan went north, besides the bandits, there were also taxes!
There are many countries in the South Road, and the small countries are fine, but the big countries have to pay taxes once.

But if you take the North Road, you only need to pay taxes once in the counties on both sides, and the North Road will be unimpeded all the way.

And if you pay the big man a tax, you will be protected by the big man. You can also hire a big man to protect you.

And this situation is also a good excuse in the future.

For the countries in the Western Regions, there must be not only rain and dew, but also thunder.

The countries in the Western Regions are restless, and they can use this reason to destroy the other two countries, and they will naturally settle down.

And not only is there a border market tax, but also a transaction tax for transactions within Dahan.

As for them not trading in the territory of Dahan in order to evade taxes, then you might encounter horse bandits, and you won't have to pay taxes in your life.

After talking about these things, the two finally asked the questions that concerned them most.

"What about the powers of the Governor's Mansion of the Western Regions?"

Huo Shan thought for a while:
"Speaking of this, let's talk about the six counties together.

There is nothing to say about Yiwu County, I am a border county government model of the Han Dynasty.

Xihua County and Zhenyu County have a county mansion and a Xiaowei mansion, which can be understood as the relationship between Shanggu, Yuyang and Huwuhuan Xiaowei's mansion.

However, in the Western Regions, the relationship between the two prefectures should be closer to facilitate the integration of Han people and foreign races.

As for the remaining three counties, it is better to say that they are the school captain's mansion than the county mansion. However, compared with the school captain's mansion in the Han territory, the management of the Western Regions is tighter, and they can no longer be left alone. .

The Metropolitan Governor's Office of the Western Regions is to take overall control of the entire Western Regions, not only in our territory, but after signing an agreement with the countries of the Western Regions next year, the entire Western Regions will be in charge.

In terms of political affairs, there is no matter about the Governor's Mansion of the Western Regions, that is the matter of the six prefectures and their officials.

In terms of diplomacy, it is all the business of the Governor's Office of the Western Regions, with full authority.

Business matters have nothing to do with these two. Da Si Nong and Shao Fu will govern the business here.

Finally, there is the military aspect. There are [-] troops in the town area, and the Western Regions are under the direct jurisdiction of the Governor's Mansion. The daily transfers are no more than the second county of Guishan to the west, and no more than Xihua County to the east.

If there is a war, it needs to be reported to the imperial court. Only after the imperial court agrees can it be acted. It can be prepared in advance, and there will be no major problems if there are flying pigeons.

As for the county soldiers in the six counties, each county has more than [-] soldiers, and the governor's office of the Western Regions is not allowed to move without edict. "

After listening to Huo Shan's narration, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the situation, there were only [-] soldiers under the command of the Governor's Mansion of the Western Regions, and the county soldiers only had [-]. The rights were only diplomatic and some military powers. It is acceptable.

In this way, there are still restrictions from the six counties, and the six counties will also restrict each other. The situation is much better and more stable.

"Why do you want to leave the right to mobilize [-] soldiers and horses in each county to the Metropolitan Government of the Western Regions?"

"Guard the caravan, clean up the trade road bandits, you can't let the town army cross thousands of miles to clean up the trade roads, right?
If the distance is too far, I will disappear when you come, and reappear when you leave, and the long-distance march will consume too much energy, so it will not be effective.

Moreover, there is no imperial edict for the township, so it can't get out of Guishan Second County in the west, and Xihua County in the east! "

Liu Ju nodded suddenly, but Huo Guang asked:

"I heard what you mean, the governor, the county soldiers are not allowed to go out of the county?"

Huo Shan nodded:
"Yes, the county soldiers are not allowed to leave the county unless there is an order from the Governor's Office of the Western Regions, and even if there is an order, it cannot exceed [-]. The mobilization of large troops requires an edict."

As for the falsification of edicts, no one dares to do this, and the officials of the big Han have their own means of discerning.

Even if someone dares to do it, it will be the end of the dynasty.

The governors of the Western Regions, county guards, county lieutenants, school lieutenants, etc. will not stay in this position all the time, they will be replaced every few years, which is different from the Central Plains and other places.

If you don't change it all the time, you will be the Emperor of the Earth, and within a few decades, something will happen.

"Let's make a decision like this first, and then consider the problems that will arise, let's fill them in slowly and change them slowly."

Both of them nodded, there was no other way, everyone was groping forward.

Not only the Western Regions, but the entire Great Han, and most of the things, are moving forward in the process of groping, slowly finding a correct path, this is an era when the Dao began.

.........

The time just entered December, and Huo Shan led an army of 4 to the outside of Guishan City.

For nearly [-] miles, Huo Shan led the army to walk for about ten days. The first half of the road was not easy to walk, and the mountains were rugged.

Although the second half of the road is all plains, there is a river, and a pontoon bridge needs to be built. It is warmer here, and the river has not yet frozen, and the frozen section is also thin ice.

In the past few days, Huo Shan has received a lot of news, and the soldiers and horses left in the east are preparing for the winter in an orderly manner.

With the support of Wusun, their grain and grass will survive this winter without any problem, and they will be transported from Dawan to the past in the spring of next year.

So there is nothing to say about things in the east.

The envoys from Da Yuezhi in the south also came, and they said excitedly that they had prepared [-] soldiers and horses, ready to help the big man.

Regarding this, Huo Shan just wanted to say, why did you go so early, why did you not see you at the foot of Wanshan Mountain?

Then Huo Shan thought that he was attacking Dawan and had no time, and Su Xian happened to be in the south, so he refuted him as a general under Su Xian's champion Hou.

Anyway, the first thing they found was Su Xian in the south, and the messenger did not come to Huo Shan's side.

Everyone on both sides knew that Huo Shan definitely knew about this matter, but on the surface, Huo Shan definitely didn't know.

So, let's drag it slowly and see how Da Yueshi's attitude is.

For the Dayue Clan, Huo Shan didn't want to fight, he couldn't mess with all the neighbors!

So let's just procrastinate and see the attitude of King Dayue Clan.

However, in order to prevent Dayue Clan from being too reckless and directly fighting in, Huo Shan sent Dong Ming to take Guan Yu's three tribes to the south to support Su Xian and the others in case of a fight.

Therefore, there were only 6 soldiers and horses under Huo Shan's belt. As for the remaining [-], Huo Shan asked Zhao Chongguo to take the first part of Zhenyu and the second part of Guanyu to go around to the west of Guishan City.

Going to the west of Guishan City, one is to guard against Kangju, and the other is to block the group of nobles in Dawan Guishan City, including the Lord of Dawan, and their army.

The nobles of Dawan are not the only ones in this city. Huo Shan didn't block anyone along the way, they all came here, such as the Lord of Qiuci.

This time, Huo Shan was going to be blocked, but they couldn't be allowed to run away.

In addition to the news from the Dayue Clan, Kang Ju also received news, but the Dayue Clan was dealt with by Su Xian, while Kang Ju was dealt with by Huo Shan.

The envoy who came for the first time angrily scolded Huo Shan for killing all the soldiers and horses they sent to welcome the big man in Kangju, and they came with Da Wan.

Huo Shan couldn't hold back his joy when he heard it. It's not like he hasn't interrogated the captives before, so he doesn't know whether the soldiers they sent are friends or enemies?

If you want to exonerate yourself, you might as well just admit that you were wrong. In this case, it will only appear that you are ignorant.

Huo Shan didn't say a word, he just waved his hand and let the soldiers go out.

Then three days later, they came for the second mission, but this time, the two countries came separately.

Huo Shan first met the Kangju envoys, and they admitted their mistakes frankly. Although their attitude was still very sincere, they didn't mention anything else.

Then he directly proposed that Kangju send troops to assist the great Han, and then the two countries share the land of Dawan.

Huo Shan didn't respond, instead he directly called the Dawan envoys and asked them why they came?

As Huo Shan expected, they came to surrender. They were willing to pay [-] BMWs, [-] horses, and [-] war horses, and sign a covenant of vassalage.

Well, this is "big bleeding" in Dawan!

Huo Shan resolutely told the envoy of Kangju about Kangju's proposal, and the envoy of Dawan became furious, and directly said the last proposal that was not made because of the presence of the envoy of Kangju.

Dahan Dawan attacked Kangju.

Huo Shan can only say that he was born in the country of Dawan, and he really feels sad for their people. The leader of the country is actually such an idiot.

Kang Ju proposed to attack Dawan together with Han. The two countries had already had this idea, but Kang Ju was the leader of both sides.

But you, Dawan, don't know that my big man's trip to the Western Regions is for you, Dawan?

You have defeated so many soldiers and horses along the way, destroyed so many countries, and paid so much, and now that most of your land is in my hands, attack Kangju together?

Don't know what they think.

Huo Shan just replied that the conditions were not enough, then dismissed them and sent troops to send them back to Guishan City.

If two parties fight on the road, and one party destroys the other, wouldn't it be a good show?
