After leaving the Beiting Protectorate and Tingzhou, where the Jiedu Envoy was stationed in Beiting, Zhao Ziliang, his family and the army continued to lead the army westward.
Along the way, they passed Shabo Shouchu, Yele City for 80 miles, and Feng Luocheng defended the capture, and then he had Juliu for eighty miles to capture, and then to Luntai for another hundred miles.
County, and within a hundred and fifty miles there are Zhangbao Shouchu, Wuzai Shouchu, Qingzhen Juncheng, Yehe Shouchu, Heishui Shouchu, and Donglin Shouchu.
We arrived at Xilin Shouchuo on the fifth day of March.
The entire trip It took a total of forty-eight days.
This kind of marching speed was simply appalling in this era.
When they arrived at Xilin to guard the capture, this new army was completely transformed.
Every one of them was full of energy and very capable.
However, during the entire march, despite adequate logistics and medical support, there were still more than 20 people due to Death from disease and fatigue.
The actual number of soldiers garrisoned in Xilin was about 300, but the garrison generals have always had the bad habit of taking empty pay.
After all, apart from taking empty pay and depriving soldiers of their military pay and rations, generals rarely do anything else.
With extra income, it is difficult to support the whole family with just a little salary.
Therefore, the Beiting soldier roster recorded 1,200 people, but in fact there were only 300.
When they arrived at Xilin Shouchuo, although Xilin Shouchuo had been reoccupied by troops sent by the Beiting Protectorate, the place was already full of ruins and ruins.
The 500 Tang troops temporarily stationed here went through some simple cleaning and repairs.
There were some habitable houses, but most of the houses and the outer walls of the city were no longer usable.
Fortunately, the army itself brought marching tents.
The temporarily stationed 500 Tang troops quickly completed the garrison transfer with Zhao Ziliang.
The guard quickly returned to Tingzhou with 500 troops, and then the place was completely under Zhao Ziliang's jurisdiction.
Although the Shouzhuo Mansion in Xilin was robbed by the Xige Luolu people, the Shouzhuo Mansion was still intact and could be moved in after tidying up.
The housekeeper Wang Ru and the servants and maids who followed him immediately cleaned up and cleaned up.
Zhao Ziliang's family members Soon we moved into the backyard.
In front were the official rooms and the office lobby.
Everything had to start from scratch.
Zhao Ziliang immediately summoned officials and generals to discuss and assign tasks.
Zheng San reported to Zhao Ziliang: "I sent a letter to Zhang Shouyu before I came and sent a caravan to gradually transport the cattle, sheep and horses. , there are thirty thousand horses, I asked him to keep ten thousand for his own use, and ten thousand cattle and sheep each, and the rest were given to merchants.
All the caravans have been transported here.
Now the first group of caravans should have set off from Mobei, and the second group and the third group will follow one after another.
However, it is risky to pass through the western part of Mobei along the way.
I have asked them to go along the way.
Under the banner of the general, when we pass through the territory of the Shatuo people, we go south to Tingzhou, and it should not be a big problem if we do not pass through the territory of the Xigeluolu people."
Zhao Ziliang nodded and said: "Okay, we can't rush this matter, but these tens of thousands of horses are very important to us.
The general wants to use these horses to train a powerful cavalry that is good at long-distance attacks.
Without these horses with amazing endurance, It won’t work.
You should pay more attention.”
Zheng San agreed: "I understand."
Next, Zhao Ziliang arranged things for his subordinates and generals.
Marching Sima Chen Qing was responsible for leading the followers to continue training the new recruits; Cen Shen was responsible for leading people to seize all the land, mountains, lakes, grasslands, acres, Conduct statistics on camp battles and name soldiers The rolls were re-examined and reviewed, the number of houses was checked, and housing was allocated to officials and generals.
There were some officials, but there was a serious shortage of generals.
After all, they were all recruits.
Grassroots officers could be selected from the recruits, but middle- and high-level generals only We can find a solution from the Beiting Protectorate.
Then the inspection captain Gong Ren will be responsible for inspecting the military discipline in the army.
He will immediately select a hundred soldiers from the recruits to form ten inspection teams to patrol each battalion throughout the day.
Zheng San is responsible for the logistics, warehouses, farming, and fielding of the entire Shouju.
In addition to training, the soldiers are also transferred to open fields for farming.

In the past, Xilin Shouju only had 300 people, so the soldiers were stationed in the fields.
The quantity is not much, and now there are more than 8,000 people eating in the entire Shouzhuo Mansion.
According to Zhao Ziliang's requirements, the number of newly cultivated fields must not only satisfy the rations of more than 8,000 people for two years, but also be enough to allow the army to continue fighting for more than half a year. rations.
Soldiers with blacksmith skills in the army not only have to train in peacetime, but also repair weapons and armor for the soldiers in their spare time.
Soldiers who can make bows and arrows also have to make and repair bows and arrows in their spare time.
There are also tailors.
In addition to completing training tasks, They also need to make military uniforms and military shoes, repair armor, and learn carpentry skills.
There are many things that soldiers can do.
In their free time, they can build tables, chairs and benches, manufacture siege equipment, farmland water conservancy facilities, etc.
These soldiers with military industry skills can receive double military pay and are the targets of key protection.
In addition to participating in In addition to training, there is no need to colonize like other soldiers.
Wang Can was responsible for leading the scout battalion to spy on the surrounding forces, especially the movements of the Tuqi Shi Wuchu Lubu, Xige Luolu and the Chebi people.
Xilin guarded the capture and walked a few dozen miles west to Huangcaobo, now around Lake Aibi.
It is the territory of Hu Lu Juque Chui of the Wu Chu Land Department; to the north is a small piece of desert, and further north is the territory of She Sheti Dun Chui of the Wu Chu Land Department.
To the south of Huangcaobo is Yuegong City, which was the Yazhang where Mohe Dagan lived in the past.
It was the territory of Tuqi Shiheluo Shichu.
From Huangcaobo to the west across Alatau Mountain and Barluk Mountain is Yanmian Prefecture, where the Mou tribe of the Xigeluolu people live scattered and are under the jurisdiction of the Yinshan Governor's Mansion, but now the Xigeluolu people are not very obedient. , otherwise they would not have raided Xilin to guard the capture, and the Yinshan Governor's Mansion, the Yanmian Prefecture Governor's Mansion and the Xuanchi Governor's Mansion would not live up to their existence.
Further west of Xuanchi Prefecture was the territory of the Chebi people.
Later in Russia, the Chebi people were actually the Tiele tribe, but they were too far away.
There were Tuqishi and Geluolu people in between, and the Tang Dynasty was too lazy to reach out.
Go there.
The people who were captured in the raid on Xilin were the Xigeluolu people, who were a powerful tribe living in the Xuanchi Dudufu area north of the Yinshan Dudufu.
Although they were not related to the Mou tribe, these two Geluolu people were from the same clan after all.
Source, they opened up the passage and let the cavalry of the Ta Strength Department kill Xilin to guard the capture.
Among them, the Hulu Bureau of the Mu Tribe and the Wuzu Lu Department must have wanted to use the Ta Strength Department to test the Beiting Protectorate and the Tang Dynasty.
North Korea's reaction.
Judge Gao Shi was responsible for negotiating with the thousand men and horses sent by Beiting Protectorate, and he led these people to repair the city wall.
The city guarded by Xilin was not big or high, only two or three hundred meters from north to south, and It was still made of dirt, less than a foot high, and its defense was pitifully weak.
According to Zhao Ziliang's request, Gao Shi wanted to take the thousand people reinforced by the Beiting Protectorate to reinforce the city wall to two feet high and one foot wide.
Although the amount of this project was not very large compared to a thousand people, it was Not small either.
In addition to his own logistics affairs, Zheng San also needs to organize some repairs to the houses in the city and re-plan the architectural layout in the city so that the houses and streets are arranged in an orderly manner.
Houses built in the future cannot be built randomly and must be built at specified locations.
Fang, this Xilin Shouzhuo is the middle station on the Silk Road from Tingzhou to Suiye City, and its geographical location is very important.
The jurisdiction of Suiye City and the area west of Suiye City is now under the jurisdiction of the Beiting Protectorate.
In the past, when the Beiting Protectorate was under the jurisdiction of the Anxi Protectorate, the tribes with the ten surnames of Tuqishi themselves were under the jurisdiction of the Beiting Protectorate.
Within the jurisdiction of the government, because the ten tribes of Tuqishi are all under the jurisdiction of the Mengchi Protectorate and the Kunling Protectorate, and these two protectorates are under the jurisdiction of Beiting.
However, Suiye City was robbed by the Tuqishi Shi many years ago and was recaptured by the Anxi Protectorate.
Therefore, the management rights temporarily belonged to the Anxi Protectorate.
However, in the past two years, Xuanzong ordered Beiting to Divided from Anxi, Beiting governs the area from the north of Tianshan Mountain to the east of the Aral Sea, which is thousands of miles away from east to west, while the Anxi Protectorate governs the area south of Tianshang and the land of the nine surnames of Zhaowu.
The military training and production construction here at Xilin Shouchuo are in full swing, and a big discussion on how to counterattack Tubo is going on in the Chang'an Palace Hall.
Xuanzong was very uncomfortable with the Tubo occupying Shibao City for a long time.
In early March, he ordered a consultation on how to capture Shibao City.
Wang Zhongsi wrote a letter saying: "The terrain of Shibao City is too dangerous.
The Tubo people deployed in Shibao City."
Heavy troops, Moreover, there are sufficient sources of food, grass, and water, so it is difficult to capture it in a short time.

If the Tibetan reinforcements arrive and attack from behind, tens of thousands of people will be killed or injured.
This is not worth the loss.
It is better to wait for the situation to change before seizing it.
This is the best strategy. ".
Xuanzong was a little unhappy after reading Wang Zhongsi's letter, and Li Linfu had always been jealous of Wang Zhongsi wearing four general seals.
It was rare in the world of military power.
Even he, the prime minister, could not hold his head up in front of Wang Zhongsi, so he was jealous of Wang Zhongsi.
Wang Zhongsi was very jealous and sent people to find Wang Zhongsi's fault every day.
On this day, when Prime Minister Li Linfu proposed a plan to recapture Shibao City, he recommended a general named Liu Guangyao to lead the attack.
Xuanzong saw it and thought it was feasible.
However, this plan to attack Shibao City required another group of troops.
Therefore, Xuanzong decided to order Liu Guangyao to lead the army to attack Shibao City, and Wang Zhongsi to lead the army to respond.
Prince Li Heng also proposed a strategy to open up a second battlefield and use the wars in Hexi and Longyou to attract the attention of the Tubo people.
The Anxi Protectorate sent a general to lead troops to attack the small town occupied by the Tubo people.
Bolu.
It happened that at the end of February, Fu Meng Lingcha, the Protector of the Anxi Protectorate and the Military Envoy of Qixi, wrote a letter recommending his general Gao Xianzhi to serve as the Deputy Protector of Anxi, the Military Envoy of Duzhi, and the Deputy Envoy of the Fourth Town of Chongsi.
It just so happened that they could not bring too many troops to attack Xiaobolu, and Fumeng Lingcha wanted to be stationed in Anxi to deter the Dashi Kingdom in the west.
Therefore, Gao Xianzhi came into Xuanzong's sight.
Xuanzong thought that since Fumeng Lingcha recommended Gao Xianzhi , indicating that Gao Xianzhi should still have some abilities, so the three On the 15th of the month, an edict was issued at the same time, with Liu Guangyao and Wang Zhongsi leading the troops to attack Shibao City.
Liu Guangyao was the main attacker, and Wang Zhongsi assisted.
An edict was also issued to confer Gao Xianzhi as the deputy governor of Anxi, the military envoy of the capital, and the governor of the four towns.
The deputy envoy and the middle envoy ordered the city to supervise the army and led 10,000 troops to attack Xiaobolu, which was occupied by the Tubo people.
As a result, in 747 AD, the sixth year of Tianbao, two battles that had a great impact on the Tang Dynasty, the Battle of Xiaobolu and the Battle of Shibao City, gradually began
