The Pioneer of the East Expedition Army had arrived at the Hetao Plain and was stationed on the edge of the Liaohe River and began to build a camp. Thorpe wanted to occupy the Hetao Plain and was always very concerned about this place. How could he not know this? He knew the lofty intention of the East Expedition Army to seize this territory with him, but he didn't care about this for the time being...

The war with Da Yan has ended for half a year, but the aftermath of Helin's shock has not yet ended. In a big battle, the Yan army approached the city of Helin, and Donghu was almost killed by the deceased tribes. Although it won the final victory, the economy and people's livelihood in the controlled area were also greatly damaged, especially in places like Yulin and Liaoning Wei. One of them lit a fire when Gao Yuan was leaving, and the other lit a fire when Zhou Yu and Hu Yanchao withdrew. Both important towns were burned to a white ground.

Lao Wang died of illness during the war, his brothers fell into the wall, and Sok and his relatives were massacred in large numbers. Although all these were won the final victory in the war, the entire Donghu was still in panic.

Restoring the domestic crisis and restoring the people's livelihood economy is a major task facing Thorpe, and it is also a major test after he first ascended the throne. But in Thorpe's view, before doing these things, he has one more important thing to do.

That is the dream of establishing a national system like the far west, the extremely powerful Qin State. Maintaining this loose tribal alliance system of Donghu, one day, Donghu will be forced to have no way out by the people of the Central Plains.

The Donghu people claim to be unparalleled in the world, but they have never walked out of the land of Liaodong. They fought with the Yan people for many years. Although they won more, they never had the opportunity to see the prosperity of the Central Plains. The reason is that this loose alliance system is beneficial when it is beneficial. Everyone wants to share the fattest one, but once they encounter setbacks, the first thing everyone thinks about is not to unite and overcome difficulties together, but to preserve their strength, then covet their companions, and try to annex other tribes to strengthen themselves. The result of preventing each other is that the Donghu tribes will never be able to unite and use six or seven in every ten-thousandth force. It is very good.

If this continues, it will not take many years for the Donghu people to have a good advantage.

The Qin people swept the world. Thorp would not think that when the Qin people really unified the world, they would let them be free and easy on the land of Liaodong. The Qin people were not Yan people. If the Qin people came in large numbers, the Donghu people would probably die and exterminate their genocide.

If you want to avoid this result, if you want to leave your name on this magnificent land and leave a brilliant mark for the Donghu people in history, you have to become stronger first. If you still have to make a strong blacksmith, you will still have to be strong. In this world, no one will sympathize with the weak.

There is no better time than now. Thorp understood that this was his best opportunity and his only opportunity. If he didn't seize this time, he would never be able to realize his dream.

A big victory against Yan State made Thorpe's prestige reach its peak in Donghu. After Miranda's purge and the war with Yan State, those powerful tribes were so weak that they were extremely weak. The tribes who had followed Soke in the past were eager to prove their loyalty in front of him to avoid being killed by him. It can be said that now is the time for Thorpe to be the most powerful.

If he doesn't do it at this time, he will regret it for the rest of his life.

Break the barriers between tribes, establish a centralized system similar to Qin, gather the power of all Donghu people, and form a joint force. Thorp believes that as long as all Donghu people are united under a banner, the Donghu people dare not say that the world is invincible, and they will never be bullied.

At the last moment of fighting with the Yan people, Thorp took the opportunity to clean up the finishing, calmly gathered his troops to Helin, forming absolute control over Helin, abolishing the tribal alliance and establishing a centralized system of the country, and unfolding the plan in an orderly manner.

Compared with this major event, the lofty Eastern Expedition Army entered the Hetao Plain and was interested in this area, which was not a major event for Thorpe.

After fighting Gao Yuan several times, Thorp had to admit that this was a surprising general. He had not commanded many people, but his combat power was extremely strong. He fought with him several times and ended up losing. However, victory and defeat were common in military affairs. Although Thorp was a little angry, he did not take it seriously. In the past, the two were evenly matched, but when he stood at the position of the supreme commander of the Donghu people, the two would not be on the same level. When they fought again, Thorp believed that he could defeat him. What's more, Gao Yuan was still not wiped clean, so he thought of stretching his hands so far, but he was afraid that he would end up in vain and get nothing.

After the war, an internal strife between the Yan people surprised Thorp, but it also made him extremely happy. He once hoped that Gao Yuan and Tan Feng and Zhou Yu would have a big fight to disrupt the Yan Kingdom. In this way, after he completed the domestic integration, he could lead his troops to the east. Maybe he could take advantage of the chaos in Yan's country to completely take down the enemy of the Donghu people. If this is true, the Donghu people could not only slap in this land, but also go further and plan for the entire Central Plains.

But it is obvious that neither Gao Yuan nor Zhou Yu nor Tan Feng, they are not fools. Tan Feng and Zhou Yu failed to hit a blow, and even shook hands with Gao Yuan to negotiate peace. Although this made Thorpe a little regretful, he was not disappointed. After all, no one would be fools when these people could reach this level. There was no reason for them to see the problems they could see.

The Yan people hope that they will fight Gao Yuan to the death. They will be able to reap the benefits of the fisherman. They will underestimate themselves and look too high on Gao Yuan.

Gao Yuan has both one mind and two things. He has to fight with himself, and always beware of Tan Feng and Zhou Yu's knife. If he uses both things, he will be strange if he can have a good ending.

Once you complete all the integration work, you will take action and let Gao Yuan see what the real pride of heaven is.

Gao Yuan is indeed a weak man in Thorpe's eyes, both for himself and for Zhou Yutanfeng.

A strong man will not care about the weak clamoring in front of him, because the strong man knows very well that it is not that he can't deal with you, but whether it is necessary to deal with you now, or whether it is good for me to deal with you now.

I will do what I see first, and then destroy this clown.

Of course, Thorp is not the kind of person who is arrogant and strategically despises Gao Yuan because of the huge gap in strength between Gao Yuan and Dong Hu. In particular, in a single war, Gao Yuan's talent showed still amazed him. In the first battle of Yulin, he could only see that this person is extremely brave. However, in the second battle of Dong Hu, under such extremely difficult circumstances, he actually defeated the three tribes of Kle to almost destroy the entire army, causing the Tieling tribe to suffer a great loss, and then escape safely.

In view of this, he also developed a great interest in understanding Gao Yuan. There was a person in front of him who knew Gao Yuan very well. Speaking of this person, he was also a Gao Yuan's acquaintance. The two of them were fellow villagers and neighbors, and they were also very story-making people.

This person is called Huo Tianliang. The former playboy of Fufeng, if it weren't for the swords of this person, Gao Yuan would not have appeared in this world. Gao Yuan's rise and rise were actually accompanied by the decline of the Huo family. Later, in order to silence the Linghu family, the entire Huo family was killed, and only Huo Tianliang was left. After tragedy of the family, this person suddenly grew up from a playboy and escaped. He first defected to Ye Tiannan and offered a series of crimes such as the Linghu family's connection with Donghu.

It was proved that Ye Tiannan was able to penetrate the Linghu clan into the abyss by his grandfather. Later, Ye Tiannan failed and surrendered to Ning Zecheng again. After Ning Zecheng fell, he thought about it and finally surrendered to the Donghu people. He was a Yan people, familiar with everything within the Yan people, and also had a complete route between Yan and Donghu smuggling back then. For Thorpe, he was a person who could be reused. Such a guy, the bottomless duckweed, had no other way out except relying on himself.

Although this person has a bad character and looks like he is playing with the other person, he is still capable. Thorp believes that as long as he is always strong, Huo Tianliang will crawl at his feet like a dog.

When the water is clear, there is no fish; when the person is observant, there is no disciple. As long as you are loyal to yourself, it is not something that cannot be tolerated to have flaws in your character, but the superiors can use these weaknesses of their subordinates to control their opponents.

Huo Tianliang is now highly valued under Thorp. Not only does he still control the smuggling routes, but he also shoulders the task of dealing with the Qi people. Thorp is very clear about the abacus of the Qi people, but how can he not be given the benefits of delivering it to the door? Not to mention which craftsmen can greatly improve the technical level of the Donghu people in all aspects, Thorp only attaches great importance to those officers from Qi. If you want to show your strength in the future, you must advance together. These officers came to Donghu to help him train infantry.

The Donghu people were not short of people. After he completed the first step of centralization, the second step was to completely eliminate the despicable slaves of various tribes. These slaves had a complex source and all kinds of sources. Over the past few hundred years, they had formed a huge population base and had also taken root in the Donghu, giving these people the civilian status and allowing them to use their military achievements to gain their future. This was completely feasible. In the past, Donghu fought only by their own tribe, and these slaves were at most as auxiliary soldiers of cavalry. It was too wasteful to train and use weapons and armor to form an army.

Thorp was not worried about these people's rebellion. Most of these slaves had already taken root in Donghu. The family and relatives were here. If one person made trouble, the whole family would die. I believe no one would be crazy. On the contrary, if he gave them hope, it would arouse their great enthusiasm. Thorp even felt that by then, these people would probably be more fierce than their own tribe.

From Huo Tianliang, Thorp knew many things about Gao Yuan, his growth history, and his famous saying that when I was so famous that I came to marry me when my hair was as long as my waist! From Huo Tianliang's mouth, Thorp easily outlined Gao Yuan's growth history. This is a very powerful bug in his heart, and it is also a bug that will never give up once he has set his goal.
