For the Wannian Princess sent by Li Wei and the notice of receiving Hongnong County, Meng Huan, who was stationed at Hangu Pass, had already received a notice from the military department. The military headquarters also sent 20,000 elite troops as a garrison of Hongnong County.

Meng Hun was also worshipped as the general of Pingdong of Hongnong’s palace and concurrently served as the left attendant of the army, responsible for coordinating the military strategies of Hangu Pass, Hongnong Commandery, and Wuguan, and guarding against Dong Zhuo and the Kwantung princes.

For a long time to come, Meng Hun will be stationed in Hongnong County.

Meng Hun also followed the order, leaving an adjutant general who was good at defending the city and three thousand crossbowmen to garrison Hangu Pass. He also sent a hundred horses to escort Princess Wannian to Chang’an. And he led the two horse elites from Hangu Pass south and into Hongnong County.

Dong Zhuo didn’t finish any tricks, so he just let Li Weibu search before exiting Hongnong County, so Meng Huan took over Hongnong County smoothly.

However, in view of the fact that Li Weibu was too ruthless, Meng Huan also wrote to Chang’an to allocate more grain and grass to let the people survive the blank period before the autumn harvest.

After Meng Hun received Hongnong County, east of Hangu Pass, all Guanzhong areas except Hedong County officially belonged to Qin Bin….

The frame of the Wannian Princess was carefully guarded by a hundred cavalrymen, and slowly passed through the Tong Pass and drove towards Chang’an City.

On the frame, except for an elderly coachman rushing to the car, there was only a ten-year-old princess of Wannian left, alone in the carriage.

The little one had a hard time sleeping these two days, although he heard from the palace people before leaving Luoyang that he wanted to send her to Chang’an to meet her eldest brother King Hongnong. But what is the truth, the little one does not know, does not dare to ask more, or even dare to think more.

Luoyang’s change frightened the little one.

I don’t know how long it took, the little guy who was curled up in the corner of the carriage, confused, felt that the carriage stopped.

The little one rubbed his eyes, carefully leaned against the window, uncovered a small corner of the curtain, and glanced outside.

I saw that it was a completely strange place outside, and there were many soldiers, and the frightened little guy quickly lowered the curtain and shrunk into the corner.

At this moment, the car door was opened, and a familiar and strange teenager came over.

By the sunlight outside, the little one quickly saw each other’s faces.

“Brother… Big brother…”

As soon as the little one’s mouth was flattened, tears fell in a gusto.

It was Qin Bin who opened the car door, looking at the ten thousand years curled up in the corner, Qin Bin was very distressed.

Although it has nothing to do with family affection, as a normal human being, it is natural to pity and pamper young children~ love, looking at the poor little guy, Qin Bin also felt a pang of sadness.

When Qin Bin spread his arms towards the little guy, the little guy quickly crawled over, ignored anything, and threw himself directly into Qin Bin’s arms, and then cried out with a ‘wow’.

In Qin Bin’s arms, it seemed that he could no longer suppress it, and the little one cried with uneasiness and horror, “Big, big brother… Father is gone… Big brother, big brother is gone… Xie Di is also in charge of ten thousand years… 10,000 years, 10,000 years… I’m so scared… Wow…”

Qin Bin caressed Wan Wan’s back and said easily, “Wannian is good, in the future, the eldest brother will always protect Wan Nian, not afraid, not afraid…”

Tang Ji, who was standing beside Qin Bin, also stepped forward, caressing the little guy’s little head with a distressed expression.

While comforting Wannian for ten thousand years, Qin Bin looked at Wang Anshi, Lu Zhi and others who came to greet him not far away, Wang Anshi, Lu Zhi, Huangfu Song and others agreed, and their faces were sad and pitying to Qin Bin, and then retreated.

Especially Lu Zhi and Huangfu Song, as old courtiers, looked at the appearance of crying silently in the arms of King Hongnong for ten thousand years, and they were extremely sad and indignant. If it weren’t for Dong Zhuo’s great use, they would all be eager to immediately order soldiers and horses to kill Luoyang and crush Dong Zhuo, who bullied the orphan of the previous emperor, to death.

Qin Bin held Wan Nian, and when he returned to the palace with Tang Ji, the little guy was probably tired, plus these days of hard work, he actually slept peacefully in Qin Bin’s arms.

Qin Bin also handed over the ten thousand years to Tang Ji, “Wan’er, you have worked hard.” ”

Tang Ji held Wannian steady, shook his head and said, “Your Highness’s business is important, and Wannian will be handed over to the concubine to take care of.” ”

Qin Bin bowed his head, then left the mansion and went to the palace.

At this time, in the office, Wang Anshi, Zhang Juzheng, Fan Zhongyan, Wei Rui, Chen Qingzhi, Qin Qiong, Lu Zhi, Huangfusong and others were all waiting in the conference hall.

In addition to Meng Huan, who wanted to sort out and rectify Hongnong County, the main members of Hongnong’s royal mansion were there.

Seeing Qin Bin coming, everyone saluted.

After Qin Bin sat down on the lord~ seat, all the wen and wu entered the table one after another.

Qin Bin spoke first, “Wan Nian is too tired and has already slept over. That’s it for now. Uncle, report on the situation in Guanzhong. ”

Zhang Juzheng was appointed by Qin Bin as the Shangshu of Hubu, and in cooperation with Wang Anshi’s change of law, Zhang Juzheng said after making a salute, “Your Highness, there are 48 counties and 48 counties under the rule of the royal palace today, 168,316 households, preliminary census, the population is about 700,000, and it has decayed in the past few years, and there are very few gate families, this value should be the truth. The land re-measurement is still in progress, and His Highness can rest assured that spring plowing will not be missed. ”

Qin Bin nodded, “Strengthen the census, and land measurement, declare if there is a shortage of manpower, my side will find a way.” ”

Zhang Juzheng responded, “Oh.” ”

Qin Bin looked at Shangshu Huangfu Song of the military department again.

Huangfu Song was also in his own right, “Back to His Royal Highness, there are more than 68,000 people with armor in the current royal palace, except for the 30,000 soldiers guarding Hongnong County, Hangu Pass, and Wuguan, there are only more than 38,000 pawns available in the royal palace now. Ordnance and goods, grain and grass and horses are abundant, and if His Highness orders the recruitment of troops, it can equip another army of 20,000 people. ”

Qin Bin thought for a while, shook his head and said, “There is a lack of young and strong people in Guanzhong, and recruiting troops is not good for the time being. It seems that the Western Expedition can only send a maximum of 20,000 soldiers. Wyven. ”

Qin Bin looked at Wei Rui.

Wei Rui was appointed by Qin Bin as the chief officer of the staff department, and the counselor was a lieutenant general, referred to as counselor or staff general. In addition to the staff military, Wei Rui also temporarily took care of the Royal Intelligence Department.

Wei Rui was in a hurry and said, “Back to Your Highness, at this time, there are two forces in Liangzhou, one is the Ma Teng Department, the three counties of Beidi, Anding, and Wuwei are all occupied by Ma Teng, with a population of about 140,000, but there are as many as 30,000 soldiers, in addition to the people and horses of the headquarters, Ma Teng is friendly with the Qiang people, and there is a Qiang cavalry of 8,000 people. He is currently stationed in Andeong-gun.

The second is the Han Sui Army, which occupies the four counties of Hanyang, Wudu, Longxi and Jincheng, with a population of about 230,000, 60,000 troops, and more than 10,000 Qiang cavalry. He is currently stationed in Jinseong-gun.

The remaining three counties of Zhangye, Jiuquan, and Dunhuang are far away, and there is no news for the time being. ”

Qin Bin listened and shook his head and said, “The population of Liangzhou is about 400,000 in total, Ma Teng and Han Sui actually pulled up a total of nearly 100,000 troops, and they also have to raise tens of thousands of Qiang people, it seems that even if we don’t make a move on Liangzhou, once Ma Teng and Han Sui know that there is food in the Sanfu area, they will definitely send Sanfu.” ”

Huangfu Song on the side nodded and took the words, “Your Highness is right. In the sixth year of Zhongping, that is, last year, I repelled the rebels of the kingdom, and after Ma Teng, Han Sui and other rebels retreated, they abolished the thief head kingdom, and coerced Yan Zhong, a famous scholar of Liangzhou, to become the new thief leader, and after Yan Zhong died of resentment and illness, Ma Teng and Han Sui fought against each other for power, and even attacked each other from time to time.

If it weren’t for that, it would be difficult for me to hold the right wind with only 30,000 soldiers.

It is not difficult for His Highness to take Liangzhou, and Ma and Han are not harmonious, and they can be divided and attacked.

Although there are many Ma and Han troops, they are not elite soldiers, and most of them are forcibly conscripted people.

Although the people of Liangzhou are fierce, they are not as elite as the royal government. The northwest and other places are barren, and there is a shortage of weapons and materials, if you face off against the royal elites such as me, the royal elites can easily win.

It’s just that the northwest is sparsely populated, there is no shortage of horses, and many horses and Korean troops are cavalry, if they cannot be decided in a battle, if horses and Korean troops flee into the Gobi or grassland, it is a hidden danger. ”
