Chapter 569

Yang Xiu continued: "the fourth point of humble duty is to encourage farming. In the northwest, there are many deserts, but there are places suitable for cultivation. The government must encourage farming, because with farming, people can settle down and will not wander around. "

"Encouraging farming is not an order."

"Many Qiang people don't know farming tools or irrigation tools. They don't even know solar terms and seasons."

"Even many Han people in Liangzhou are like this."

"The government has transferred experienced farmers, and even appointed officials from Guanzhong to teach them how to cultivate, so that the people can really understand how to cultivate."

Yang Xiu said in a deep voice: "in the final analysis, the Han people, the Qiang people and the rest of the Hu people are all for survival. If you have enough to eat and drink, it's not easy to make trouble. "

Zhang Xiu nodded.

Yang Xiu's idea is very good. He doesn't despise businessmen, but he doesn't forget farming.

Farming is fundamental.

Because the vast majority of people are farming people.

Yang Xiu continued: "if you want to govern Liangzhou, there is a fifth point, that is, you need an army stationed in Liangzhou. Although we need education and governance, in fact, in the northwest, there are many brave people, and many brave people. "

"In addition to preaching, we need the army to suppress unreasonable people."

"Otherwise, we can't do a good job with simple education."

Yang Xiu said: "especially when you are in a humble position, you may encounter Qiang people's rebellion and so on. When there are disturbances, it is even more necessary to mobilize the army to suppress them. With compassion, we can't do without thunderbolt. "

"Ha ha ha..."

After hearing this, Zhang Xiu couldn't help laughing.

Laughter, full of praise.

After Zhang Xiu finished laughing, she straightened out and said, "if you have dezu governing Liangzhou, I'm not worried!"

Yang xiudao: "the Lord is wrong."

Zhang Xiu continued: "when Liangzhou is pacified, you will take charge of Liangzhou and serve as the governor of Liangzhou."

"Thank you

Yang Xiu's heart was also excited.

At a young age, he took charge of Liangzhou. Even his father Yang Biao, when he was young, was not as good as he was. That is why the times made heroes. Only when he followed Zhang Xiu did he have such an opportunity.

"Newspaper!"

Suddenly, Wang Yue strides in.

After Wang Yue settled down, he bowed to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Lord, we have found the whereabouts of Ma Chao and Han Sui."

Zhang Xiu said, "where did they go?"

Wang Yue replied: "after Ma Chao and Han Sui left Hanyang County, they went straight to Wudu County. Wudu County borders on Yizhou, and there are many mountains in Wudu County, which is also the gathering place of Baima Qiang. According to Yan Xing, Han Sui has a close relationship with the king of Baima Qiang. They have gone to Baima Qiang. "

Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "it seems that the next step is to attack Wudu County."

In fact, Wudu County is just to the south of Hanyang County, where both sides are bordered. For Han Sui and Ma Chao, Zhang Xiushi must be exterminated, it is impossible to leave future trouble.

However, Zhang Xiu did not know the location of Ma Chao before, so it was not easy to contact Ma Chao. Now that Zhang Xiu knows that Ma Chao has gone to baimaqiang, she is ready to contact Ma Chao.

Anyway, Ma Chao's wife and children are still in Zhang Xiu's hands.

Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and said, "Wang Yue, you should mobilize the royal guards to contact Ma Chao and tell him. His wife Han Xuan is in my hands. Besides, tell him about Han Xuan's pregnancy. "

Wang Yue said: "Lord, just tell him about it?"

Zhang Xiu replied: "just tell him about it, and don't say anything superfluous. When we come to Wudu County and attack Han Sui, we will be ready to threaten Ma Chao. What's more, the baimaqiang people are located in the mountains and may not be able to contact Ma Chao. "

Wang Yue said, "I will obey you in your humble duty."

"Newspaper!"

At this time, another soldier entered and reported: "Lord, Pang Shangshu asked to see you."

"Please

Zhang Xiu gave an order.

He was surprised. He didn't expect Pang Tong to come back so soon. For a moment, Zhang Xiu was also looking forward to it.

Soon, Pang Tong and Chen Dao entered.

After they saluted Zhang Xiu, Pang Tong looked ashamed and decadent and said, "my Lord, I arrived at shaodang Qiang, but I can't persuade shaodang Qiang, please punish me."

Zhang Xiu felt sorry when she heard that.

What a pity!

If shaodang king of Qiang is convinced, then there will be another sharp weapon against Baima Qiang.

Zhang Xiu said: "no harm, if you can't persuade, you can't persuade. Now, Han Sui has retreated to Wudu County. Our next focus is to destroy Han Sui. "

Pang Tong continued: "when he saw Shao Dang king of Qiang, he said that if he wanted to negotiate, he needed the Lord to go in person. He said, "I'm in a humble position. I can't make decisions on behalf of my Lord."

Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows and asked, "did he let me go in person?""Yes

Pang Tong replied, "the shaodang Qiang people in my humble position have a huge tribe and a large number of people, at least tens of thousands of people. In particular, there are many Han people in shaodangqiang. Shaodang Lao Wang is not much hostile to the Han people. "

After hearing this, Zhang Xiu was also thinking.

Wang Yue interjected: "Lord, according to the news from the royal guards, shaodang Qiang is different from Baima Qiang. The king of Baima Qiang was very hostile to Han people and often plundered Han villages. On the contrary, Shao became the king of Qiang and allowed Qiang and Han people to intermarry. This shaodang king of Qiang is a man of great ability. It is not as aggressive as the Baima Qiang. "

Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "in this way, you can be a Qiang when you are burned."

Pang Tong said: "if you can make shaodang Qiang surrender, shaodang Qiang will send troops in Jincheng County, and the Lord's army will send troops in Hanyang County, it will be much easier to besiege Wudu County. Wudu County is located in the south of Hanyang and Jincheng county. "

"If so, let's go."

Zhang Xiu's eyes flashed a fine light.

He was interested in shaodang king of Qiang. Shaodangqiang, which is close to Han people, is still rare. If we can accept shaodang Qiang, it means that we have solved a big threat among Qiang people.

This is an opportunity!

Zhang Xiu immediately ordered: "come, call Huang Zhong and Zhang Yan to see you."

The soldiers on guard at the gate were ordered to go to inform immediately. After a short time, Huang Zhong and Zhang Yan entered the camp, bowed to Zhang Xiu, and then stood in the hall.

Zhang xiudao said: "this time, the scholar Yuan Shao was the king of Qiang, but he failed to persuade Shao to be the king of Qiang. Not only that, shaodang king of Qiang asked me to go in person. I'm going to have a trip. While I'm away, Huang Zhong is in charge of military affairs and government affairs. "

"Here it is

Huang Zhong agreed.

After a pause, Huang Zhong said in a deep voice: "my Lord, it's quite a risk to burn dangqiang. Under this premise, whether to dispatch General Chen's Langya camp to go together, in order to coordinate the Lord's safety. "

"No need!"

Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "I'm not going to demonstrate, I'm going to negotiate. What's more, the royal guards know the situation of burning dangqiang, so I went there. Burning dangqiang is not a tiger's den, but persuading it will be very convenient for us to wipe out Han Sui, which is quite cost-effective. "

When Huang Zhong heard the words, he would not say more.

Pang Tong once again said, "my Lord, I beg you to go with me again."

"Yes!"

Zhang Xiu responded directly.

Immediately, Zhang Xiu arranged all the affairs in the army. After arranging them properly, she left the camp with Wang Yue, Deng Zhan, Shi a, Pang Tong, Sima Yi and Yang Xiu and headed for Jincheng county.

The reason why Yang Xiu went with him was that Yang Xiu was going to take over the post of Liangzhou governor. He had to understand the situation of shaodang Qiang in order to manage Liangzhou in the future.

After all, most of the people in Liangzhou are Qiang people.

Although there are not many soldiers around Zhang Xiu, in fact, there are hidden royal guards along the way to ensure her safety and protect her from attack.

Zhang Xiu left Jixian and went west all the way.

All the way, there was almost no delay.

When Zhang Xiu took all the people into Jincheng County, she soon came to shaodangqiang tribe. As soon as they rode up, Deng Zhan came forward and said, "go and report immediately. Zhang Xiu, the Great Han's great captain, has come to visit shaodang king of Qiang."
