    On Tuesday, after he sobered up, he convened a short meeting with his generals, and then he completely became the hands-off boss.  Anyway, this is not the first time he has done this. Now not only the servants from the Zhou Mansion know that the second master likes to find faults with his hands behind his back, but even the entire Shenwei Army also knows about this "problem" of their chief general.  If Ge Shuhan, Nan Jiyun, Zhang Xun, Xu Yuan, Zeng Qiliang and a large group of capable people are not used on Tuesday, but he does everything by himself, it will not only prove that he is a fool who knows nothing.  , and then there is a huge waste of human resources!  The vast westbound convoy passed through the lush vegetation on the north shore of Qinghai Lake. The scenery of the frontier fortress in August was very different from that of the imperial capital Chang'an, which made the family members and young men in the team who came from Chang'an to relax feel particularly happy.  Lei Haiqing, the "god of drama" of the generation, is now well-known in Chang'an City. Although he is still far from the status of the Grand Enshrinement of the Liyuan, he still earned enough popularity and attention during this trip to the west.  Every evening, after the army has set up camp, Lei Haiqing will lead a troupe to perform some operas and juggling shows for the soldiers of the Shenwei Army in the center of the venue, adding a lot of joy and laughter to the boring marching journey.  Niannu, who has officially studied under Lei Haiqing, relies on her naturally good voice and unique identity advantage to sing some popular songs she has learned from Tuesday Normal Hum for the soldiers in recent years.  Popular songs written more than a thousand years later have more beautiful melodies and more straightforward lyrics, and are most suitable for singing to the large group of illiterate soldiers in the army.  Within a few days, Nian Nu became the most popular one on the stage.  When she came on stage to sing, the audience burst into thunderous applause and cheers.  Tuesday stayed with Yang Yuyao every day, telling her all kinds of interesting things after coming to Longyou. Some topics and stories had been told several times on Tuesday, but Yang Yuyao was still full of interest and seemed to never tire of listening.  In this way, eight days later, the Shenwei Army, which moved west from Suirong City to Fuqi City, successfully arrived at Fuqi City.  Jia Erlong, who stayed behind, personally led 500 cavalry to meet Zhou Chengye on the south bank of the Buha River.  Then he accompanied the huge team into Fuqi City.  After entering the city.  Jia Erlong directly guided Zhou Chengye to the Dalun mansion where Kilixu originally lived, while Chang Jian and other civil servants were already waiting for the arrival of the general.  Although it had only been half a month since he left Fuqi City, Zhou Chengye still discovered that some changes had taken place in the former Da Lun Mansion and today's Shenwei General Mansion.  First of all, the defense in the mansion has been more complete.  Various bright posts and hidden sentries are scattered in every corner of the mansion.  Make sure that no danger will occur after General Zhou Chengye moves in.  Today is Tuesday.  He has become a public enemy of the Tubo Kingdom. I don't know how many Tubo spies and spies are sparing no effort to monitor him, if the opportunity and conditions permit.  The Tibetans certainly wouldn't mind nipping Tuesday's future threat in the bud.  Secondly, the furnishings and layout of the mansion have been changed. All the murals such as Tangka and Tangka that the Tubo people used to decorate the walls have been cleared away, as well as various other religious sculptures and decorations with strong Tubo colors.  Be cleared out.  Referring to the style of the mansion in Fuqi City on Tuesday, Chang Jian ordered his people to decorate the entire general's mansion in a simple and elegant manner, especially setting aside several meeting halls that could accommodate different numbers of people.  He doesn¡¯t have many other hobbies on Tuesday, but he maintains his habit of gathering every once in a while to discuss matters. If there aren¡¯t enough meeting halls for him to use, he will probably have the Grand Forum demolished and rebuilt on Tuesday.  A mansion.  Finally, the courtyards and buildings on both sides of the General's Mansion were all requisitioned by Chang Jian. It is said that they were used to house the mid-level and high-level generals of the Shenwei Army in the future.  These houses and courtyards were originally the residences of the princes and nobles of Tuyuhun. After the Tibetans destroyed Tuyuhun, they became the residences of the occupying Tibetan officers and soldiers. Now, they have been used by the Shenwei Army in vain.  After settling the young masters, family members, military dependents, merchants, etc. who accompanied the army into the city, the senior generals of the Shenwei Army gathered in the smallest conference hall of the General Mansion to discuss future development plans.  Chang Jian first reported: "General Qi, the census work in Fuqi City has been completed. There are currently 4,532 main combatants in the city, 485 disabled soldiers, and 2,010 Tibetan prisoners.  One hundred and eighteen, there are 5,637 old, weak, women and children in Tuyuhun." After hearing this, Zhou Chengye turned to Zhang Xun and said, "Please also ask Zhang Canjun and Chang Canjun to cooperate with each other to remove us from Suirong City this time.  All the people brought here must be counted clearly. We must make sure that everyone who settles in Fuqi City in the future can be recorded in the population register of the General Mansion! We cannot let any Tibetan spies sneak into the city. This is to ensure that Fuqi City is  It¡¯s a major matter for the city¡¯s safety!¡± Zhang Xun stood up and took the order, insisting on conducting thorough and detailed inspections of every city he visited on Tuesday.?The demographic approach strongly agrees.  Chang Jian then reported to Zhou Chengye some other specific matters related to civil affairs and construction in Fuqi City, and several other people added additional information.  When it was Jia Erlong¡¯s turn to report, he reported in detail to Zhou Chengye the treatment of wounded soldiers after the war, the adjustment of troop sources, and the placement of Tuyuhun soldiers.  After the war, the Suirong Army not only did not reduce its personnel, but its main battle strength increased by more than 1,500 people than before the war, mainly due to the temporary recruitment of a group of Tuyuhun soldiers.  These Tuyuhun soldiers were originally cannon fodder to protect the soldiers of the Suirong Army in combat. However, through their own efforts, they won the attention of the general Zhou Chengye. After the war, they were incorporated into various sub-camps of the Shenwei Army and became the leaders of the army in the future.  Regular troops.  After listening to Jia Erlong's report on Tuesday, he said: "I would like to remind you here today that in the future, the Shenwei Army will recruit new soldiers from all over the Tang Dynasty to join the camp. As generals, you must pay attention to prevent the soldiers of the camp from pulling the mountain.  , forming gangs, and dividing races. Once similar situations occur, it will not only damage the combat effectiveness of our army, but also cause a series of problems such as poor military order and loose military discipline! " "Anyone who joins the Shenwei Army is our brother and sister!  , No matter he is a Turk, a Tuyuhun, a Han, a Koryo, a Tocharian, or even a Tubo! In our Shenwei Army, Zhou doesn¡¯t care about his origin or race, he only cares about his military exploits and loyalty!¡± Zhou Chengye said!  When he said this, the expression on his face was very serious, which showed that he took this issue seriously.  Among the generals, Ge Shuhan is of Turkic ethnicity, but he has always considered himself a Tang person and has no feelings for the Turkic tribes that now occupy the north of the Tang Dynasty.  Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, generals of various ethnic groups have been awarded awards, and Han ministers in the DPRK rarely raise objections to the appointment of foreign generals as army commanders.  To put it bluntly, even Li Yuan and Li Shimin have the blood of the Hu people, so why should everyone take it seriously?  The famous general Hei Te Changzhi at that time was from Baekje, and he was also accepted by the Tang Dynasty; the current famous general Gao Xianzhi in the Tang army was from Goguryeo, and he was also valued and appreciated by Li Longji; and although Ge Shuhan was born in Anxi  Turks, but he also wrote many classic battles against Tibet in history.  ¡°Tuesday comes from a later generation and is quite familiar with the development history of a country that is mainly composed of immigrants and has become the world¡¯s most powerful country in just over two hundred years.  From Tuesday's perspective, although this country does not have any historical heritage, it maintains strong creativity because it is good at being inclusive and accommodating.  At this time, the Tang Dynasty was also in an era of unprecedented integration. Not only did the emperor and ministers have a broad and accepting mind, but ordinary people in the Tang Dynasty also had the courage to try and accept all kinds of new things.  If the Tang Empire had maintained this momentum and had not encountered any problems along the way, I can't imagine how far it would eventually expand!  Regarding the statement put forward by the general Zhou Chengye that "regardless of origin and race, only military merit and loyalty are considered", most of the generals in the field did not find it absurd or surprising, because they themselves thought so.  There were many non-Han generals and soldiers in the Tang Dynasty border army, especially in Longyou Road and Hebei Road, including An Lushan and Shi Siming.  In the eyes of the soldiers, as long as you recognize the Tang Dynasty as your own country and are willing to fight bloody battles with the enemy when they come, there is no need to distinguish whether you are a Han or a member of other ethnic groups.  After listening to the reports from all his subordinates, he pondered briefly on Tuesday, and then said: "This general has listened to reports and suggestions from all parties during this period, and has a complete plan on how to run Fuqi City and the Shenwei Army in the future.  , in summary, there are three goals. ""The first goal is to support war with war!" "The general plans to complete the expansion of the Shenwei Army this winter and next spring. By then, our army will have a strength of 20,000.  Among them, more than 15,000 are recruits with no battlefield experience. How to improve the combat effectiveness of these recruits? In addition to rigorous and arduous training, that is to send them all to the front line of the Tang-Tu confrontation and let them experience bloodshed and pain.  Sacrifice, so that they can be trained into the strong soldiers we will need!" "We must be prepared for a long-term battle with the Tubo people. We must kill all their young soldiers, rob them of their cattle, sheep, and livestock!  The old, weak, women and children will eat away at the strength of the Tubo Kingdom, and eventually turn the stolen livestock and population into strength and resources for the development and growth of our army! " "The second policy is to use hoarding to fight!  After inspecting the land along the coast of Qinghai Lake and the Buha River Basin, it is a pity that these areas are only used for grazing. As long as the entire army is mobilized to farm and build forts, within three years, our army will no longer need to provide food and grass from the court.  As soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, we should share more of the worries of the Holy Emperor and the country. If we can be self-sufficient, the saved military expenses can be used by the Tang Dynasty.??More troops!  " "The third policy is to use business to support war!  " "The right way means that there is no stability without farmers, no peace without soldiers, and no wealth without businessmen. This general may not be very proficient in war, but when it comes to the way to get rich through business, if I think that I am second, I am afraid that no one in the Tang army will  Dare to claim to be number one!  Brothers leave their families and careers to follow me and suffer in this frontier place. I have the obligation to make you all rich and let your family members and children live an enviable life!  ¡± ps: Dear friends, I¡¯m really sorry that there was no update yesterday. Qingyang spent a whole day doing housework at home yesterday, and had to attend a colleague¡¯s wedding banquet in the evening. Today, my parents finally came to Shanghai with their precious daughter. It feels like  No matter how hard it is, it¡¯s worth it!
