Chapter 612 Xiliang Kingdom(1/2)

In Liangzhou, Wang Dahu was very upset and had no choice but to worry about his mentality.

The Jiedushi came to Liangzhou and drove westward, panic occurred throughout Liangzhou.

The reason is said that Wang Dahu is about to move to his post.

Many military and civilians in Liangzhou asked Wang Dahu's wife in a curved manner, expressing their unwillingness to let Wang Dahu go.

For example, the ladies are unwilling to leave Liangzhou and convey the wishes of the military and civilians.

Wang Dahu is in a dilemma. He has put in too much effort in Liangzhou for so many years and has formed a relationship with the people of Liangzhou.

Wang Dahu rationally understood that he could not ask the Marquis to continue to stay in Liangzhou. He could not have suspicion with the Marquis or betrayal.

On this day, Wang Dahu met the messenger from Zeng Hao and informed him that he would arrive in Wuwei City the next day.

Wang Dahu was surprised, he didn't know that Zeng Hao was going to Ganzhou.

"The Marquis asked Zeng Hao to replace me." Wang Dahu subconsciously guessed, feeling disappointed, but he was also relieved.

Wang Dahu had a local relationship with the people of Liangzhou and was worried that his successors would not be able to treat the people of Liangzhou well.

Zeng Hao is a good person and wise person. He will not be a bad official in succession to Liangzhou.

That night, Wang Dahu casually told his concubine that Zeng Hao took over Liangzhou and that he might go to Yuanzhou to work.

Nearly noon the next day, Zeng Hao led his army to Wuwei City.

Officials sent by Wang Dahu met and guided the military to station.

Ainu followed Wei Fufeng's instructions and stayed in the army and did not enter Wuwei City. Her name, Princess Wei Fufeng, would inevitably be respected when entering the city and seized the title.

Zeng Hao brought ten guards into Wuwei City, and led by officials to arrive at the State Yajun Mansion.

Wang Dahu went out to greet him. As soon as he met, old friends sighed that the years were ruthless. They fought each other with close friends, entered the mansion gate and arrived at the lobby.

Zeng Hao stopped and glanced at him. Good guy, more than 20 civil and military officials, gathered together, most of them looked respectful and the scene was solemnly suppressed.

Zeng Hao turned his head and smiled: "Dahu, have you known it?"

Wang Dahu said: "If you come to take over Liangzhou, I can feel relieved and leave."

Zeng Hao was stunned and smiled: "What are you talking nonsense? I'm just passing through Wuwei City."

Wang Dahu was stunned, and the civil and military officials were stunned. They all heard that Zeng Hao replaced Wang Dahu, so most of them gathered to greet him spontaneously.

Zeng Hao understood the misunderstanding and smiled and said, "I'm going to reminisce about the old days with Dahu, and the other is to convey the orders of the Marquis. Come on, you guys will listen."

Zeng Hao walked in, turned his back to the case, and announced: "I conveyed the order of the Marquis to build the Beiting Khanate in Suzhou, Ganzhou and the entire Hetao area to build the Xiliang Kingdom.

He was conferred the title of King Li Yuzhu of Xiliang, served as the right prime minister of the king of Xiliang, the governor of Liangzhou, and other official positions in the kingdom in the future."

An accidental official in Liangzhou built the Kingdom of Xiliang?

Zeng Hao looked at Wang Dahu and said, "The Marquis originally wanted to build Hanhai County, and Wang Dahu served as the county Sima.

However, Wang Dahu felt that he was not capable enough and was used to governing Liangzhou. The Marquis made a flexible establishment of the Kingdom of Xiliang.

Wang Dahu served as the right prime minister of the kingdom and the governor of Liangzhou, both were second-rank officials, and Wang Dahu continued to be in charge of Liangzhou.

However, the head of the Beiting Khanate, the Xiliang Kingdom, and the Western Regions seized in the future was Tiance Prefecture."

Officials in Liangzhou understood.

Wang Dahu saluted respectfully: "Mr. Xie trusted and used it with great value."

Zeng Hao turned his head and asked, "Who is Lord Yang Bo?"

Liangzhou Governor Yang Bai was stunned and bowed and responded, "Secretary Yang Bai." Zeng Hao laughed and said, "Mr. Yang is a third-rank official, but he is not a low-rank official. The Marquis asked you, may you go to the Beiting Khanate to serve as the governor of Ganzhou and serve as the right minister of the Khanate. Don't force yourself to agree, it is difficult for the Uighurs to govern."

Yang Bo hesitated and said nothing.

Zeng Hao said again: "Tomorrow, let Wang Dahu reply to the Marquis, you feel that you cannot stand alone, you can remain as the governor of Liangzhou and move to the governor of the mainland in two or three years."

Yang Bai smiled bitterly and said, "Yang Bai feels unable to do it."

Zeng Hao nodded and said, "It is a good thing to know yourself, and the marquis won't be surprised."

Yang Bai nodded, he was reluctant to stay in the Hexi Corridor for a long time.

In fact, Wei Fufeng talked with Zeng Hao, and Zeng Hao recommended three Yuanzhou officials to be promoted to Ganzhou.

Wei Fufeng asked Yang Bai that out of respect and comfort, Yang Bai would be relieved of his anger.

Next, the civil and military officials dispersed, and Wang Dahu invited Zeng Hao to drink and reminisce about the past.

Wang Dahu was happy and thanked Wei Fufeng for his care. In his narration, he casually said that Tong Shan made great contributions and deserved the position of right prime minister.

Zeng Hao smiled and said, "Your right prime minister of the kingdom is just a name, which is equivalent to a flexible transfer to you. In the heart of the marquis, you can defend Liangzhou and work hard and make great contributions."

Wang Dahu nodded, but said, "I feel it is inappropriate for the Marquis to build the Kingdom of Xiliang for me."

Zeng Hao smiled and said, "For you, it's only part of the reason. Although the Marquis didn't say it, I can understand that it was Xiang Zhuang's sword dancing, aiming at Pei Gong."

Wang Dahu was stunned and said, "I was confused when I heard the metaphor you said."

Zeng Hao smiled and said, "Hedong Army, the Marquis established the Kingdom of Xiliang, and Li Yuzhu was conferred the title of king. He was qualified to compete with the heirs of the Hedong Army."

Wang Dahu thought about it and suddenly said, "Is it useful?"

Zeng Hao took a sip of wine and said, "Good birds choose trees, and people's hearts change by profit, but they are also bound by customs and kindness.

Li Yuzhu became king. One day Li Keyong died. Li Keyong's subordinates of the Fanhan resigned to Li Yuzhu, and there was an excuse that I was not a traitor."

Wang Dahu nodded and raised his glass to drink.

Zeng Hao laughed and said: "Is it useful? It is not harmful to the Marquis. The Marquis intends to march into the northern grasslands. There are many Dangxiang people in Hetao area. They consciously build a family and country and expand and advance towards the grassland."

Wang Dahu thought about it and said, "Will the family and country with a large number of people in Dangxiang cause a big tail to lose, and raising a tiger is a problem."

Zeng Hao said: "Since ancient times, the Han people have been heavily guarding the north, so there will be no big problems, such as Li Yuan, who is guarding Taiyuan."

Wang Dahu said: "What you are wrong. The Han people fight in their nests is very different from the invasion of northern ethnic groups."

Zeng Hao said: "That is the concept of a literati and a marquis' supreme ruler. There are only two types of people, their own subjects, and internal and external enemies."

Wang Dahu nodded and said gently: "I have been in Liangzhou for a long time. I am the same fellow villagers as local humans. No matter what ethnic group, I am respected equally."

Zeng Hao nodded and said, "The world praised Emperor Wu of Han's great power, and said that he would offend us. Although he would be punished, the price of Wuwei was that the people were living in poverty and their national strength was empty, which caused the Han Dynasty to fall downward."

Wang Dahu nodded and said, "It is not advisable to be a military force."

Zeng Hao said: "The ability of Emperor Wu of Han to dominate the power of martial arts was because the Wen and Jing Dynasty accumulated their wealth, and the young and strong population and money and food were enough to squander.

If the Marquis learns from Emperor Wu of Han and collects 200,000 troops to fight north, he will only talk about how to solve the problem of baggage and military supplies."

Wang Dahu nodded.

Zeng Hao said again: "The Marquis relied on the savings of Lingzhou and Liangzhou this time, and it was probably emptied."

Wang Dahu hesitated and nodded. The Marquis had too much military power in the western expedition.

In fact, Tongshan's vanguard army is enough, and it's just like killing chickens.

Zeng Hao laughed: "I understand your pain, but conquering the Hexi Corridor and the Western Regions requires an unstoppable deterrence, a defeated army without fighting, and minimize the impermanence of subsequent rebellion."

Wang Dahu didn't agree much, and as soon as the army left, the deterrence disappeared, but he still nodded.

Zeng Hao said again: "At the same time, the Han people resisted the northern expedition, and the combat effectiveness of the Han army in the north was not as good as that of the native Dangxiang and Uighurs."

Wang Dahu nodded.

Zeng Hao said again: "The Marquis said that the Great Wall is empty, and the real Great Wall is a ruling strategy, properly managed, constructing small powers, forming checks and balances of the chessboard."

Wang Dahu nodded.

Zeng Hao said again: "The Marquis said that his approach may not be correct, but he could not go north by the army. He could only use the Dangxiang Uighurs to curb the Khitan's unification of the north."

Wang Dahu nodded and said, "The Khitan has indeed risen rapidly and has repeatedly attacked the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun."

Zeng Hao said: "The Marquis asked me to go east to expand territory. Once you and I part, you may not be able to meet for many years."

Wang Dahu was surprised and asked, and the two of them said a lot.

In the afternoon, Wang Dahu's concubines took their children to the military camp outside the city and paid homage to Ainu.

.........

In Luoyang City, a fake Bohai envoy and his party met with the remaining prime minister Liu Can of the Tang Dynasty.

When Li Zhen arrived in Luoyang, Liu Cangan was a lackey, so he survived and stayed in Luoyang.

The envoy of the Bohai Kingdom proposed to congratulate the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and requested the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to grant the title of Prince Xuantu County, the former Andong Protectorate, and changed its name to Xuantu County.

Liu Can was worried about it and didn't know what Zhu Wen of Xuanwu Army meant, so he had to go to Henan Prefecture to ask for Zhang Quanyi.

When Zhang Quanyi saw Liu Can, he heard about his purpose and refused to entrust this as a major national diplomatic event, and he was not qualified to participate.

Liu Can had no choice but to ask Zhang Quanyi to ask King Liang, but Zhang Quanyi agreed to send someone to pass on Liu Can's documents.

Zhu Wen received a request from Liu Can. Because the Luzhou War in the north was in a stalemate, he immediately threw it out and scolded: "I'm asking about the birds in the Gentiles, what's the use of you?"

The messenger gave back empty-handedly. Liu Can was angry when he heard Zhu Wen, and was frustrated and frightened. How could he dare to take charge of the affairs of the Tang Dynasty without authorization?

Liu Can gritted his teeth and allowed the Bohai envoy to meet the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, drafted an edict to enthrone the prince of Xuantu County, established Xuantu County, and gave the tiger priest seal.
