The Mozang family came to the palace twice to ask to see Guo Shao, looking very anxious because Brother Ku was detained inside.Guo Shao did not meet.
At this time, the governor of Guiyi Army Cao Yuanzhong and his son were rushing to Lingzhou.
When Cao Yuanzhong heard the news, the Emperor of Great Zhou went on a tour of the west, he personally brought his men and horses to see him. The tribute was particularly generous, and he brought two thousand good horses in Hexi!This made Guo Shao extremely happy.
Of course, Guo Shao must prepare more than 2,000 worth of goods and reward Cao Yuanzhong. This is a reciprocity exchange... The towns far away from the Central Plains or the tribute from the Gentiles are different from the tributes directly ruled by the dynasty, similar to disguised trade exchanges; if the emperor does not give back the gifts, others will have no motivation to pay tribute.
Wei Renpu was also very satisfied with Cao Yuanzhong and spoke in front of Guo Shao: Hexi is no longer as good as during the Han and Tang dynasties. Now the tribes look around, which poses a great threat to the Han people in Hexi.The military and civilians such as Cao Yuanzhong were unwilling to give up the fertile land. They still hoped that the dynasty would be strong and focused on the northwest to give them some barriers. The Guiyi Army's hearts remained on the Central Plains.
Guo Shao agreed.
When Cao Yuanzhong arrived in Lingzhou, Guo Shao gave him a super standard courtesy and took the imperial carriage out of the city to greet him!
As soon as I came out of the city, I heard a burst of tears outside!
It's the cry of a man.
Even Guo Shao was stunned for a moment, and saw a middle-aged man with a round face and a young general with a similar face kneeling on the ground, crying in silence.
The soldiers wearing red clothes in their armors and knelt on the ground one after another.
Lu Duosun whispered beside the car driver: Your Majesty, the person on the ground is Cao Yuanzhong, I have seen him when I was in Guazhou.
Cao Yuanzhong shouted: I have finally seen Your Majesty!
Guo Shao didn't know him at all, but seeing him so excited, I felt a little moved, and thought that after all, my family was more solid.
Cao Yuanzhong reported: In the past century, Hexi has been blocked by the roads. I led the people of Hexi to guard the old lands and have been in decline for several years, waiting for one day to return to the throne.Today, I can see the emperor with my own eyes, and I will die with my eyes closed...
After hearing this, Guo Shao was quite moved, and walked straight out of the car and helped Cao Yuanzhong with his own hands.
Wei Renpu said on the side: When the Han Dynasty opened its territory and found Hexi from the Huns, how many children left their hometowns and went west to guard the villages, so there was this place.Cao Jieshuai guarded this place for the country, and the court did not forget the achievements of the Cao family and the Guiyi army and the military and civilians.
Guo Shao said: What Deputy Envoy Wei said is my thoughts.Get up quickly.
Cao Yuanzhong bowed with tears in his eyes: I thank you.
Cao Yuanzhong introduced his son Cao Yangong to Guo Shao, saying that he wanted him to be a guard in front of the emperor... He had the intention of showing his loyalty and letting his son enter the court as a magistrate.
Guo Shao invited Cao Yuanzhong to the same car and asked Cao Yangong to ride a horse with his sword on the side of the imperial carriage, thinking that he trusted him.
The group returned to the palace, and Guo Shao and Cao Yuanzhong talked about the matter in Hexi, and they had a very consistent conversation, and they felt that they had met too late.At night, the two of them were still talking at night with candles, and the king and his ministers met and fought passionately.
The Han people in Hexi felt insecure at this time. The territory they could control had been eroded so that only Gua and Sha were left. The Guiyi Army regime was once surrounded by enemies and could not be supported by Buddhist forces within it.
After Cao Yuanzhong took office, he was forced to change his tough expansion strategy (because his opponents were all over the world and consumed too much), and gave money and women, and married and formed alliances everywhere, which temporarily stabilized.
The king and his minister first reviewed how prosperous Hexi was during the Han and Tang dynasties. They lamented that countless people died after the ancestors opened up their territory. They were not easy. They could all talk about it and felt the same, so they were very close... The ancients relied on farming, and land was the basic means of production; as long as the territory where they could farm, everyone wanted it.
The greatest contribution to the development of territory and the greatest sinner is the greatest sinner.
When Cao Yuanzhong heard that Guo Shao had received supply of war horses from the west, he was impatient: As long as the roads in the Hexi Corridor and Guanzhong are opened, it is profitable to establish a commercial road, and there are as many war horses in the Western Regions as there are!
Cao Yuanzhong instigated: Your Majesty will send troops over, and the Guiyi army will attack You Majesty from east to west, driving away the Uighurs, Tubos, and Dangxiang people from the east of Guasha, and the trade route will be smooth!
Guo Shao finally understood what the general's position was. Cao Yuanzhong formed an alliance everywhere, and was helpless. In fact, he had wanted to drive away the tribes in Hexi long ago... The reason was very simple. The tribes occupied most of their original territory and threatened their survival for a long time. If the court paid for the troops to help him take back the entire Hexi, they would of course be happy.
If the court wants to conquer Hexi and Guiyi Army attacks the west, it is actually a favorable thing for both sides.
I have to say that Guo Shao’s rough heart has been affected many times, and he was also excited by Cao Yuanzhong for a while!
Guo Shao stood up and stood in front of the map for a long time, calmed down, and looked at Youzhou, Hebei again.
If you have the strength, of course you want it anywhere.The problem is that Hexi is too far away, and it requires money and soldiers... Guo Shao asked casually, Cao Jieshuai thought how many troops the court needed to recover Hexi?
Cao Yuanzhong pondered: Considering that Xiazhou Dangxiang might rebel with the Liao Kingdom... His Majesty only needs a large army of 500,000 to occupy the territory east of the Western Regions!
I'll fuck!Guo Shao immediately cursed in his heart. Cao Jieshuai's tone was still very loud, 500,000... still only.
If I can have 500,000 troops and money and grain to mobilize the expedition, I will go to Liao Kingdom first. What should I do now?
Guo Shao glanced at him and felt that Cao Yuanzhong had a great ambition. He had been beaten to only two states and formed alliances everywhere, but he was worried about the court's annexation of the entire northwest territory.
But Guo Shao did not want to undermine his confidence and spoke: After years of hard work on governance, the country is now prosperous, with strong force and control of millions of forces.But to mobilize so many people to fight, we have to discuss with the court officials more.
Cao Yuanzhong said: What Your Majesty said is extremely true.
Guo Shao said again: Besides... I think since the Liao Kingdom wants to interfere in the northwest, it is better to conquer the Liao Kingdom first. The matter is much simpler.
After hearing this, Cao Yuanzhong clasped his fists and said with enthusiasm: Your Majesty is at its peak. With such a broad mind, I am willing to help Your Majesty with his help!
Guo Shao comforted: It is not advisable to move troops at this time. Cao Jieshuai will be careful to guard the land of Guasha. Let us think of other ways to stabilize the situation first, and then talk about it in the future... If the Guiyi Army has something to do, we can send someone to report to the court. I will send people to mediate among the various races in order to achieve harmonious coexistence.
Cao Yuanzhong clasped his fists and said: I am in accordance with Your Majesty’s will and I will do my duty.
Guo Shao stood in front of the map for a long time, not thinking that changing the established strategy was a wise move.
At this time, it is difficult to threaten a large-scale eastward invasion in the northwest; and Youzhou has a lot more attention in terms of strategic status and the world. If Guo Shao gets Youzhou, he can get more things!
Expanding the war horses is to fight the Liao Kingdom in a decisive battle; rather than putting the cart before the horse and moving the main front west.
At this time, the governor of Guiyi Army Cao Yuanzhong and his son were rushing to Lingzhou.
