The Three Kingdoms: Summoned generals at the beginning, shocking Cao Cao

Chapter 211
"drive!"

Horses galloped across the desert, rolling up yellow sand and dust all over the sky.

Tuoba Liwei led his men and galloped towards Wei Qing's central army in front.

"General, Shule rebels have been discovered ahead!"

Seeing this, Wei Qing immediately asked.

"How many soldiers and horses does the thief have?"

"There are almost a few thousand people."

"How many thousand?" Wei Qing showed a slightly angry face.

Such vague rewards would require a military stick in a standard Da Chu army.

But these Xianbei people are often very poor in mathematics, and they are already confused when they count to a few thousand.

"About 8000 people!" Tuoba Li said carefully.

In fact, because of the heavy wind and sand, he didn't check it clearly at all, so he hurried back to report.

"In this way, the rebels in Weitou City still have a bit of courage, and dare to go out of the city to fight!"

Wei Qing smiled slightly and ordered his men to prepare his long sword, bow and arrow. He would go into battle himself to chop melons and vegetables.

"Weitou City."

Wei Qing muttered the name softly, then turned to look at Nashipantuo beside him and asked.

"What does this Weitou City mean in your Shulehu language?"

Nashi Pantuo hurriedly replied respectfully, "General, Weitou City has snowmelt rivers, and the land is very fertile. It is rich in wheat melons and fruits. In Shule dialect, it is a city full of wheat!"

"A city full of wheat? A city of wheat? A city of wheat?"

The more Wei Qing thought about this name, the more he felt that such a name was unlucky.

After pondering for a while, he was actually a little bored.

"This name is not good. I don't like it very much. When Shule is pacified, I must report to His Majesty to change the name here again!"

In the laws and decrees of the Han Dynasty, the names of the cities and towns such as the governors of various states and counties were not allowed to be easily changed by anyone except the emperor.

Therefore, even if Wei Qing doesn't like the name of "Maicheng" Weitoucheng any more, he can only be changed by Liu Bian, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and not by himself.

"Soldiers, military merit lies ahead, follow me to kill the enemy!"

Wei Qing held up his Qinglong Yanyue Saber and pointed forward forcefully, which immediately ignited the enthusiasm of the whole army.

"Killing a thief is a military achievement!"

"Killing a thief is a military achievement!"

The soldiers of the Protectorate of the Western Regions suddenly shouted loudly, and even Tuoba Liwei and other Xianbei new troops were infected and cheered.

"kill!"

With the flags of the Great Han Xuanlong fluttering in the wind, Wei Qing personally led the army to kill Weitou City ahead.

When Wei Qing and his son led the army to expand territory in the Western Regions.

Liu Bian, who was far away in Luoyang, the imperial capital, was also concerned about the war situation in the Western Regions.

"Your Majesty, according to the news just returned from Gaochang, Duke Weiqing of Liang State has already led his army westward to hunt for thieves, and there should be progress in about a month or two." Yan Baihu, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, said.

"With Wei Qing taking action, the Western Regions actually don't have to worry about victory or defeat. Victory is certain. However, what I am worried about is that the war will drag on for too long, and I can't absorb a large number of Xianbei nomads, which will delay the plan to reduce the population of the grassland!"

Liu Bian's most important new role in the Western Regions was to absorb the large amount of surplus 'labor force' on the grasslands.

Although the Xianbei Qianghu 'surplus labor force' on these grasslands has no other re-employment skills except burning, killing and looting.

For the Western Region, just burning, killing and looting is enough.

"If the war in the Western Regions goes well, it will make a lot of money for the Xianbei Qiang Hu who participated in the eldest son's Western Expedition. This will attract more young people from the grasslands to go to the Western Regions to seek life, and reduce border troubles."

Liu Bian's idea is completely a virtuous circle.

There is not much savings on the grassland. Once there is a famine, or if someone wants to get rich, there is no good way other than heading south to plunder the Central Plains.

But now it is different. If they can follow the Han army to fight and plunder everywhere in the Western Regions, and earn a lot of money, who would want to go south to touch the bad luck of the Central Plains Dynasty?
"Your Majesty, the territory of the Han Dynasty is now more than ten thousand miles wide, and many of them are wild lands waiting to be developed. If these grassland barbarians see it, what should we do if there is a hidden danger of driving tigers and wolves away?" Yan Baihu said a little worry.

"I have already thought of it, and this problem can be solved."

Liu Bian smiled lightly and then continued.

"Although my current prince is young, he will grow up in the future. It would be a pity if so many royal bloodlines are not used!"

Liu Bian said, feeling very proud.

Before starting a new private trip, Liu Bian wanted to spend more time with his sisters such as Bao Si, Xiao Qiao, Zhao Feiyan and Sun Shangxiang in the palace.

As the time increases, naturally there will be a lot of time to hold hands with the concubines in the harem.

In just a few months, they all conceived the prince one by one.

According to the current momentum, Liu Bian's number of princes will exceed twenty in one year.

"Your Majesty's great blessing is also the blessing of the country!" Yan Baihu flattered him very naturally.

"Hahaha, the blessing of the country, there are so many princes, and now there are so many wild lands. I can finally learn from Ji Zhou's courage to expand the world." Liu Bian said.

After hearing Liu Bian's words, Yan Baihu immediately understood.

Liu Bian is going to make the prince a prince and king!

"Cracking the soil and sealing the border, isn't it against His Majesty's unification of the world?" Yan Baihu asked.

"What's the violation? The Central Plains of the Han Dynasty are all directly under the jurisdiction of the states and counties. Only those wild places that need to be developed can send princes to open up territories for the princes and kings!"

Liu Bian's idea was not a whim, but had been conceived for a long time.

Today's Han Dynasty martial arts is extremely prosperous, and elites from all walks of life want to make a difference in military arts.

However, Liu Bian discovered a problem. These military officers and soldiers often did not want to stay in the frontier after they made meritorious service in the frontier, but returned to their homeland in the Central Plains.

This led to Da Chu's victory in the frontier one after another, but it was extremely insufficient in consolidating the results.

After Liu Bian thought about it, in addition to emigrating and guarding the border, he also sent criminals to exile.

We must also learn from King Wu of Zhou, who came to divide the world!
This method can be used.

All the wild lands were enfeoffed, and a vassal king took his vassals to expand the territory. As long as he won, he would be able to take root firmly.

As long as these feudal states take root, the Chinese spirit of the Han Dynasty can take root there.

Thousands of years later, no matter how the Central Plains dynasty changes, the surroundings will be the history of Central Plains China since ancient times.

This is called meat rot in the pot.

Yan Baihu may not be aware of Liu Bian's hard work, but Liu Bian is full of confidence.
