"Early in the morning the Tubo army..."
After eating something, the sergeant began to report the situation.
"In this case, the most lacking thing at the moment is logistics and horses. The Hexi Jiedushi has captured many horses and can be sent to Jiuqu."
After listening to this, Li Yi put himself in his shoes and thought that he needed food for people to eat and mobile troops.
"Yes, Dongzhu Li actually knows?" The sergeant looked very excited. He was most afraid of meeting a layman.
In order to show that he was also an expert, Bi Gou continued: "The area is large and there are many grasslands. You can't see the edge at a glance. It is convenient if you have horses."
Li Yi turned to look at Bi Gou in surprise, and quickly said to the wide-eyed sergeant: "Bi Zaifu is joking. Bi Zaifu knows that there are many hills in the area, but overall it is not very hilly.
There are many lakes and rivers, and most of them merge into the main stream of the Yellow River. There are many branches of the Yellow River leading to the sister lakes in the northwest.
Nowadays, the water and grass are abundant, mainly because the temperature is high in summer and there is no shortage of water.
There are many cavalry, and they can always find a suitable gentle slope to charge, and at the same time help carry supplies. "
"Yeah!" Bi Gou said without blushing, stroking his beard.
"Yes, Bi Zaifu is really awesome." The sergeant praised Bi Gou and admired Li Yi at the same time.
Sure enough, Dongzhu Li knew everything. As for Bi Zaifu, it was probably because the court had many important matters and he did not pay attention to the small matters of the border terrain.
"You guys have a few mouthfuls of watermelon and go to rest. Eat after you have rested. There is no need to worry about things over there. New supplies have been transferred from Henan Prefecture, and some of them have been loaded onto ships and can be connected to Shu logistics."
Li Yi told the ten people about the situation to prevent them from worrying.
"Thank you, Mr. Li." The sergeant clasped his fists.
"Those of us who are protected by you want to thank you. Without you, where would we have peace?" Li Yi bowed.
Ten soldiers were excitedly taken to eat watermelon to supplement water and sugar to increase metabolism and dilute gastric acid.
Everyone sat down again, and Bi Gou complained to Li Yi: "You said there was so much grass there."
"Yes, there are many. There are also many grasses on the mountain, as well as precious medicinal materials such as caladium, cordyceps, rhodiola, and snow lotus.
There are also many birds and animals such as leopards, deer, bears, wild sheep, wild donkeys, and pheasants.
You didn’t look at the map I drew. There are lakes and lakes one after another. Oh, the local people call it Taihu Lake. They call it Taihu Lake. "
Li Yi explained the situation and he would not take the blame.
"Life in this local area must be very good." Bi imagined a lot of meat, medicinal materials in the mountains, farming by the lake, and sheep herding.
"It's cold, and people's skin is not good, and sometimes the wind is very strong, and the handicraft skills are not good, let alone smelting. That's why they want to steal our people from the Tang Dynasty."
Li Yi shook his head. Life in the local area was not good. It was actually a problem of the ruling class.
Although I knew that Datang's technology was good, I always thought about grabbing it, and I didn't feel at ease to study at all.
So brave and brave, the old man has no status and is still a slave.
At that time, the same place was still developing its economy, but the people who ruled it were different, so living standards could be improved.
"If it were you, how could you live a good life there?" Bi Gou also thought about human problems.
"Am I going alone? Then I have to find a tribe first and gain the right to rule, otherwise I can't do it myself." Li Yi thought for a moment and shook his head.
It was okay to go now, but not when he first came to Datang. He had to run within the territory of Datang and then enter Chang'an.
Or he could temporarily serve as a minor official in the Jiedushi area to earn some life. He felt that he could manage a village of hundreds of people or a county of thousands of people.
In one year, not only will everyone become rich, but their income will at least double.
"I'm telling you to occupy the place and take care of it..."
"Uh-huh!" Li Longji coughed.
"You command remotely and ask others to take care of it." Bi Gou quickly changed his words, yes, Xiao Yi can't go out.
"Lao Bi, your method is good. If I take command elsewhere, the local officials will not be satisfied. I have a method for the newly occupied place."
Li Yi was interested. There were not many people in the large area at the source of the Yellow River.
Most people can travel, but they can't bear the climate if they stay there for a long time.
There is indeed economic development, but it depends on who you compare it to. The local tourism industry is a pillar industry.
Most industries serve the surrounding areas, provided there are national and provincial highways.
It is easy to occupy a place, but difficult to defend it.
Who wants to stay there? If there is no grass elsewhere, you can graze the sheep in the past. After grazing, and there is grass in your own place, you can drive the sheep back.
In order for more people to live locally, the local area must be attractive.
Even if they follow orders and are stationed there, they are the main labor force.
If you have family members, it will be troublesome to set up several Jiedu envoys and have your family members follow them.
Those who go there are border guards and are always in danger, as Tibetans will frequently harass them.
We are all from the Tang Dynasty, so why do the people there have a harder time than others?
Li Yi thought about it, lowered his head to eat, and thought about how to arrange it.
Once the place is occupied, it is impossible to ask Tibet to take it back.
Li Tan also ate silently. He found that he was useless and could not help.
Among the things I learned before, there was nothing about Jiuqu Land, let alone the specific people's livelihood and military affairs.
I have to learn from Li Yi and maybe, like my uncle, I can organize several teams to help in the future.
The little guy is now happy all day long and never thinks about adult matters. His worry is that he can't continue playing when it's time to eat, and he has to lie down when it's time to sleep.
After dinner, Bi Gou said goodbye and left.
Li Yi went back to his study to write and draw. Now he had to consider local affairs.
Li Longji did not disturb him and chatted with his family.
"The place has not been occupied yet, and Xiao Yi has to be busy. It's not easy." Concubine Dou Lu looked distressed.
"If other people can come up with some solutions, they will not let Xiao Yi work alone." Li Dan was dissatisfied with the ministers.
In his opinion, there are so many of you, don't ask to be like Li Yi, can't you have Li Yi's ability?
Queen Wang followed and said: "They will not give any other solutions except saying that they will not collect rent and ask the locals to build roads."
"Yes." Princess Yongmu stood on Li Yi's side: "Li Lang will directly tell the locals what to do, and the locals just need to learn from him."
"Sanlang, ask the ministers in the morning court tomorrow." Concubine Dou Lu was dissatisfied.
The whole court asked how to govern the place where the source of the Yellow River should be governed, but no one?
Li Longji nodded and said nothing.
At dinner time, Li Yi brought a stack of papers and put them on the table: "Third brother, let's do this in the early stage, and the soldiers can get familiar with the terrain."
"Okay!" Li Longji nodded vigorously. Look, there is a solution.
The next morning, Li Longji went to work at dawn.
The ministers in the court were discussing the matter of Jiuqu and further west. New Jiedushi were set up in the occupied areas.
Send people to take the position, where to transfer people, and what things are needed.
After much discussion, it was decided to push Guo Zhiyun and Zhang Zhongliang forward and arrange a new Jiedushi later.
"The local area is even worse than Longyou and Hexi. Do you have any good strategies to keep the people safe and benefit the army?"
Li Longji waited until everyone said it was about the same before throwing out the question. He wanted to see if there were any capable people.
