Hami was slaughtered, and the people were saddened by the Zhou army in the Western Regions. Governor Qi responded, and Jia Huan also responded.

In Dunhuang, he organized a huge public criticism, attacked the four tribes of Bayegu, and sent a Hu caravan to Beiting, and promoted the killing of Hu orders in Mobei and abolished the Han orders.

However, these arrangements and arrangements take time to be effective. The first thing that has the effect was Jia Huan's previous arrangement: a hundred-man caravan from Lou Wo, Guo Guan and Han Tang to the Khotan.

A little comfort to the slaughtered Han people in heaven!

The caravans of Lou Wo and others preached the killing of Hu in Putao City and abolished the Han slaves' orders, and continued to go to Qiemo and Khotan. In Putao City, there were also caravans traveling across the desert, covering the edge of the Tarim Basin to head north to Yanqi.

Going west from Yanqi to Kucha. Going east to reach the western end of the Turpan Basin: Gaochang.

In the twelfth month, news that the head of the four tribes of Bayegu, Xue Yan, Uighurs and Tongluo was worth 10 silver dollars spread throughout the Gaochang area.

Since the collapse of order in the Western Regions, the chaos has become increasingly chaotic, and the terrain is complex, and several horse thieves have been active in Gaochang area, which is located on the major transportation route.

Mo He, the general of the Xueyan clan, has taken hundreds of remaining soldiers out of Hami since October, passed Puchang City along the way and arrived in Gaochang. The news of Kucha's capture came at this time. They stayed in Gaochang City.

Gaochang City had long become a city jointly controlled by local tyrants. With Mo He's arrival, the local tyrants in Gaochang did not immediately support his rule: the Battle of Beishan had spread long ago, and the nobles far away in the Tocharian region all felt that it was only a matter of time before the Zhou army unified the Western Regions, let alone Gaochang, which was located on the main road to Kucha?

After the killing of Hu Ling spread in December, Xue Yan's tribe members continued to die in the city. The heads were cut off. The killing of Hu Ling: the heads were used to pay silver.

When Mo He led dozens of personal soldiers out to chase the murderer, he was defeated by a horse thief in the desert and he was captured.

There are vast yellow sand, with hillsides and flat ground. On the hillside, horse thieves are scattered around, and their leaders supervise the execution on the hillside.

Mo He, a general of Xue Yan's army, once commanded tens of thousands of troops and experienced dozens of battle formations. He was quite famous in Mobei and was now dead here. He even didn't know what the leader of the horse thief was called.

Very frustrated!

But this is just the beginning of killing Hu!

"Kill them. Sell the heads to merchants and ask them to go to Kucha to receive silver rewards." The leader of the horse thief looked at Mo He's head who had landed on the ground and ordered coldly.

"Ah..." The scream lasted for only a moment. The heads of these beards were taken away. The bodies were covered with messy bodies. Blood was soaked in the yellow sand. Then, they were buried by wind and sand!

Remember, this is just the beginning!

…

…

The closer the year is, the more severe the wind and snow are.

As time goes by, Hami is affected by the slaughter, and the depression in the air is slightly reduced. As the Spring Festival approaches, people's faces have regained a little smile.

In the city of Guazhou, Jia Huan and Hu Chi came from Dunhuang, gathered with the Governor of the Western Regions, as well as staff members.

The Imperial Heavenly Prison in the capital has long been announced that from the 20th day of the 12th lunar month, the yamen sealed the yamen and began to have annual leave. The situation in the Western Regions was special, and it was not until this time that the yamen sealed the yamen sealed the 28th day of the 12th lunar month.

After the jail term, Governor Qi invited his staff to drink, which was equivalent to the annual meeting. He had met with the generals in the army yesterday.

In a small courtyard behind the second hall of the Governor's Office, Zeng Jigao, Jia Huan, Hu Chi, Yang Wei and others gathered to drink and chat with Governor Qi.

The reason why Qi Chi was in Guazhou was not returning to Dunhuang was due to Zeng Jigao's suggestion: Go forward! Governor Qi carried his coffin to fight, and there was no reason to retreat. If you recover a place, you would manage a place until the entire Western Regions were restored.

After a few drinks, Qi Chi smiled and said, "There is another good news that has not been shared with you. Cheng Gongda lobbies the Yuchi family of Khotan has been successful. The Yuchi family promised to join the court again. We will toast to Cheng Gongda in the far away town of Khotan!"

In the flower hall, nine staff members raised their glasses, and the atmosphere was warm.

Jia Huan savored the gentle rice wine with a smile, and was happy for Cheng You. The style of a strategist! He single-handedly persuaded a military town to join the court. This is a great achievement! The four towns in Anxi have two of them.

The Yuchi family surrendered, but they were definitely still local tyrants. The in-depth governance of Tian Town is not the time to discuss this issue. Instead, they must first take it back, appoint officials, garrison troops to collect taxes, and implement Zhou Lu.

The lunch banquet ended until around 2 pm. Before the festival ended, there was a New Year ceremony. The aides in the Governor's Office were not officials, and the court did not pay wages, but Governor Qi paid wages. After the annual meeting, of course, the year-end bonus was given.

Jia Huan signed the account at the entrance of the flower hall, received the red envelope, and put it out in his pocket. He was a little drunk, held his forehead, sat in the side hall for a while, and sent someone to Governor Qi to the study. Zeng Jigao and Yang Wei were there.

Qi Chi was wearing black casual clothes and savoring tea. He asked Jia Huan to sit first, nodded in praise, and said, "Ziyu has been well managed in Dunhuang for several months! You talked about the incident of Bahule going to Mobei. You and Ji Gao and Wen Qing."

Jia Huan called Bahule from the mining site a few days ago and asked about Shi Yuhua's situation. Another piece of news that the black-clothed Crescent Guard heard aroused his interest: Baye Gu Xiaode was favored by Princess Wan, the daughter of Yilin Khan, but married Tongluo Gui's daughter Unige. It was precisely because he received the support of Tongluo tribe that he firmly took up the position of commander of the coalition forces.

Jia Huan expressed his idea, "Assuming that the Wanguo princess no longer favors this person, the legitimacy of the ancient filial piety and commanding power will be greatly reduced. In addition, his reinforcements may be delayed! It is beneficial for our army to restore Beiting."

The Bayegu tribe was locating in the northern part of Mo, with strong strength and hundreds of thousands of string control men. It is generally believed that after losing a hundred thousand troops, the Bayegu tribe competed for power with Chahar, Pugu and Khalkha in the northern part of Mo, and could still send about 50,000 troops to aid. If the coalition forces of the four tribes were combined, there would be about 100,000 Hu cavalry.

Beiting is not as terrain as Beishan. Most of it is plains. At that time, it will be a cavalry duel. It will be difficult to achieve a decisive victory in the firearm array. Hu Qi cannot rush down the firearm array, but he can run.

On the grassland, you can survive where there are water and plants. The famous general Xu Da led his troops to expedition to Mobei, but was defeated by Wang Baobao because he underestimated the enemy. Zhu Di, the Ming Dynasty, fought against Mobei for five times, but never found the main force of the Mongols, and had to die regretfully. If the Battle of Beiting was fought into a guerrilla war on the grassland, when will it be pacified?

Zeng Jigao pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Ziyu, how sure are you to convince Bahule to go to the grassland to disrupt the situation?"

If the princess of Wan Kingdom no longer favored Baye Gu Feide. Then, Yilin Khan had two choices. First, let him die and no longer ask. Second, send a large army to take over the command and take him down and question him.

It needs to be clear whether the Baye Gu tribe wants to occupy Beiting and decide whether to send reinforcements. There may not be any dispute within it. Since ancient times, it has been the tribes that unified the northern desert to attack the Central Plains!

For example, the Huns during the Han Dynasty, the Turks during the Tang Dynasty, and the Liao, Jin and Mongolia during the Song Dynasty. Now in the northern desert, there are still several tribes competing for the battle.

But no matter which one, it would definitely be beneficial to the Zhou army.

Jia Huan pursed his lips, paused for a while, and then smiled and said, "I'll try."
Chapter completed!
