"Liu Du, you will lead the three guards of Duoyan to garrison Yehuling! Maintain the trade route between Hetao and Youzhou! And guard against the Tuoba Xianbei tribe in the northern desert."
"I want coal, salt, and ironware from the Hetao region, as well as fish from Wuliangsuhai Lake and raisins from the Western Regions, to enter Youzhou through your territory."
"Wild Fox Ridge is your hometown. Besides, you are already very familiar with protecting merchants in Shangjun."
"There shouldn't be any problems this time!"
Liu Wei stationed Liu Du at Yehuling, making it a transit point between Hetao and Youzhou, just like Gao Nu in Shangjun.
"My lord, I've gained experience in escorting caravans, there's absolutely no problem!"
Liu Du gladly accepted the order.
Go!
Liu Wei was quite satisfied with his brother-in-law's performance.
Well, his sister Liu Yifei was already pregnant when Liu Wei left, and her belly must be quite noticeable by now!
And what about Diao Chan, who is pregnant, Zou Ling, who is newly married, and Cai Yan, who is devoted to education? I wonder how they are doing in Hetao?
In addition, Liu Wei also promised to give Princess Salde of Loulan, who was far away in the Western Regions, a wedding that would shake the thirty-six kingdoms of the Western Regions!
Liu Wei promised to give Fu Shou, the daughter of Liu Hua, a golden house and make her empress.
There's also the Zhen family estate, the promises made to Zhen Mi, and the promises made to Zhen Yi.
well!
Liu Wei snapped out of his reverie and put those distracting thoughts aside.
A real man stands between heaven and earth, riding a horse and brandishing a spear, traversing the four seas and conquering the world. How can he think about hardware and software engineering every day?
"My lord..."
Seeing that Liu Wei had been making arrangements for a long time and it was still not his turn, and that he was now distracted, Zhang Yan thought of his 30,000 people and stepped forward to ask, "How should my troops be arranged? Please tell me!"
"In addition, my tribe also has 30,000 people who agreed to migrate to Youzhou..."
"Oh, Zhang Yan, I have lost my composure!"
Liu Wei immediately snapped out of his daze, his eyes sharpening. "Your unit will rest for a few days, then head to the Taihang Mountains to escort the people to Tanggu Port in Guangyang County!"
"You shall garrison that estuary and construct a naval port!"
"The people settled down here, and if any more members of the Black Mountain Army are willing to come, we will accept them all!"
"That place is currently a desolate wasteland. I'm sure Youzhou won't mind if I settle the Black Mountain Army civilians there."
Hearing that Liu Wei had considered things very clearly for them, Zhang Yan felt relieved and casually asked, "I hope that our lord will bestow a name upon this future military port, so that our Black Mountain Army brothers will know that we have come to a good place to settle down!"
"Yes, I've heard that our lord is a man of great literary talent. He should give our new home a good name! It will definitely be better than that remote mountain place in the Taihang Mountains!"
Du Chang and Zhang Baiqi also echoed the request for instructions.
Liu Wei smiled slightly, then reminded Tian Kai, "Mark it on the map!"
"This place will be called Tianjin!"
hiss!
Impressive!
Great name!
My lord is truly amazing!
While everyone in the tent showered the place with compliments, they couldn't help but admire the new place name.
With trembling hands, Tian Kai solemnly wrote the two characters "Tianjin" on the map, two hundred li southeast of Ji County, at the mouth of the Gu River.
Zhang Yan, Du Chang, and Zhang Baiqi accepted the order and left.
Next, Liu Wei ordered Zhao Yun to lead the Guan Ning cavalry to pursue the remnants of Murong Muyan's army.
Liu Lie led 5,000 Yuwen Xianbei troops who had surrendered to Liu Wei to receive training from the Han army near Ji County, with Wang Fangyi leading his guard battalion as instructors.
Li Su's 5,000 archer battalion suffered 2,000 casualties and would not be replenished for the time being. Liu Wei ordered him to garrison near Ji County to assist Yan Rou in managing his troops and intimidating prisoners.
The Seventeen Riders of Yanyun, Murong Ping, and others served as guards and attendants to Liu Wei.
As the chief clerk of the General of the North's Office, Tian Kai followed Liu Wei at his side, ready to answer Liu Wei's questions about Yuanfang's opinion at any time!
Zhang Chun was temporarily imprisoned in the camp, and the heads of Zhang Ju, Murong Yunhai, Murong Mohuba, Dunta, and other major rebel leaders were preserved with quicklime.
Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju's families had already arranged for people to arrest and detain them.
Whether their families were involved in the rebellion or were innocent is no longer important.
But the extermination of their entire clan is definitely inevitable!
These must definitely be sent to Luoyang. In any case, Emperor Ling of Han, Liu Hong, and all the civil and military officials must see that Liu Wei, the General Who Guards the North, the Prince of Yunzhong, and a concubine prince, has quelled the rebellion of Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun in Youzhou and made great contributions!
Just thinking about Liu Wei's expression, like "You all want to kill me, but you can't!"
Empress He and He Jin must be so angry they're practically in a rage!
As for Empress Dowager Dong's inner thoughts, we cannot know.
Liu Wei worked for several hours to finally make proper arrangements for the issues following the decisive battle in Youzhou.
He led Tian Kai out of the camp, looked at the setting sun hanging over Jundu Mountain in the distance, and let out a long sigh of relief.
Suddenly, these words came to mind:
"But the sun, it is both sunset and sunrise at every moment."
"As he extinguished his light and descended the mountain to gather the desolate afterglow, it was at the same time that he was burning brightly on the other side as he climbed to the summit to spread the blazing morning light."
“One day, I too will calmly walk down the mountain, leaning on my cane.”
"On that day, a bouncy child will inevitably run up from some valley, carrying his toys."
"Of course, that's not me. But, isn't that me?"
Liu Wei murmured famous lines from Shi Tiesheng's essays, which he had read in high school, with endless sighs.
Tian Kai, who was standing to the side, vaguely heard Liu Wei reciting in plain language and was completely confused.
"Yuanfang!"
"My lord?"
