Military camp in the south of Guzang City, Liangzhou, at the foot of the Daxue Mountains.

Pei Min rebelled against humanity and placed the newly established White Army in the Qilian Mountains.

The Qilian Daxue Mountains are a complete small mountainous land formed by the interruption of the Qilian Mountains. The Changma Basin is in the north, the Shule River Canyon in the east, the Wildma River Valley in the south, and the Gongcha to the Banshan Pass in the west. It is the highest mountain at the northern end of the Qilian Mountains, covered with snow all year round.

The weather is cold and the environment is even worse than that of the Northwest.

Pei Min came to visit the White Army camp in person.

Unlike other military camps, the military camps of the White Army did not have fixed seats or relative defense facilities.

All soldiers live in tents that are easy to move anywhere.

Pei Min patrolled the camp left and right, and Hun Shizhi accompanied him, introducing the knowledge of the camp to him.

Setting up camps is the foundation of the commander-in-chief. When Xue Ne taught Pei Min his experience in using troops, he had already told him in detail.

The military books left by Li Jing, Su Dingfang, and Pei Xingjian also record in detail the method of setting up camp and camp.

However, traditional camping and camping are very different from the southwest plateau.

On the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, where hills and ravines are everywhere, it is extremely inapplicable to follow the orthodox camping method.

For example, the orthodox camping method is mostly camping on flat ground or near water sources, or choosing to camp on high mountains.

The former can attack and defend, and can also ensure domestic water and facilitate marching.

The latter has the convenience of being condescending and being able to restrain key strife. As long as you do not make mistakes like Ma Su, you can be invincible.

But after a brief explanation, it is another situation.

The explanation of the word: "Qinghai Lake can still be used as the method of camping in Chinese military science. In addition to the different climate, the regional situation is still somewhat similar to that in Hexi. But on the plateau, the situation is very different. There are peaks, one peak connected to one peak, and there are very few flat spaces for the army to camp. Even if there is one, the surrounding area is surrounded by mountains. As long as you stand on a high place, all the situations in the military camp can be clearly seen."

"There are also many years of strong winds on the plateau. Camping on the top of the mountain will consume more physical energy for no reason and weaken your combat power."

"According to our habits, the camp should be built in the air shelter. At the same time, we must be prepared to change the wind direction..."

It has been two months since I returned to Tang Dynasty, and Hunshizhi has been working hard to learn Chinese.

Although this long speech still has the problem of pronunciation, it can clearly express your meaning.

Pei Min also heard it very seriously: "That is, you can't bring too much baggage?"

The explanation: "It's true."

Pei Min suddenly thought of the Battle of Dafeichuan decades ago by Xue Rengui.

In the early stage of the Battle of Dafeichuan, Xue Rengui led the main force and launched a light-fitting attack. He occupied the military important military base Wuhai and gained the initiative in the battle situation.

He said: "I guess Xue Rengui, a famous general of our dynasty, really saw through this point, so he boldly advanced and caught Tubo off guard."

The explanation of the story: "I heard from the retired old man that in that battle that General Xue's surprise soldier was too bold at that time, and the Tubo military gods were unexpectedly expected and missed the first move. It just seemed that there was a problem in the rear, which made Tubo Qinling seize the flaws and win in one fell swoop."

Pei Min naturally knew the situation back then and said, "This is also the reason why I established the White Army. There were two major reasons for the general's defeat in Dafeichuan that year. First, the plateau climate was abnormal and the Tang army was unable to adapt to it; second, he was the commander of Liaodong and transferred to the southwest front and became the supreme commander, which aroused jealousy and dissatisfaction. Now, my status is only higher than that of the general at the time, and there is no trouble with the latter. But the former is a flaw. Putting you under this snowy mountain is also to keep you in resistance to the plateau climate. Don't get used to the climate here, and in the end I will not adapt to the plateau climate."

He was afraid that he would not understand what the plateau climate was, so he also explained the situation of the plateau reaction in detail.

Hunshi's ability to accept was amazing. After listening to the explanation, he said clearly: "Just like we are not used to the heat of the Central Plains, you can't stand the coldness of the mountains."

"It's about the same, that's what it means."

Pei Min didn't look at it carefully and said with high hopes: "So I hope that one day when I attack Qinghai Lake, you can become the main force of the White Army. This is also my original intention of creating the White Army."

Hearing that Pei Min was so respectful, Hun Shizhi stood up straight, punched his chest with his fist and said, "Hun Shizhi will never let down the high expectations of the Duke!"

Pei Min smiled and patted Hun Shizhi's shoulder and said, "Learn from me..." He clasped his hands and said, "We are here to promote this, use fists to beat the chest, which is not suitable for us to use. Remember, although you are from Tuyuhun now, your nationality is my Tang Dynasty."

"I understand!" Hun Shizhi was even more happy to see Pei Min treat him as his own person, and he clasped his fists with his hands as he did.

Pei Min walked in front and said, "Let's look at the soldiers' training!"

Hun Shizhi pointed at the road and came to the training camp. More than a thousand soldiers rode on military horses and attacked the school field. They were all wearing light armor, with hard bows in their hands, and had a scimitar tied around their waists, and had no other weapons.

In the past, Tuyuhun people mainly used riding and shooting, and Pei Min also focused on training the Bai army to give full play to their own national characteristics.

Pei Min has carefully studied riding skills, and it can be seen that the soldiers selected by Hun Shizhi have a deep foundation. They not only run agilely, but also bend their bows and shoot archers on the horse's backs very smoothly.

In this regard, Pei Min had to admit that compared with the Tang Bing of the farming nation, the quality was indeed a bit stronger.

However, there is inevitably a bit of randomness in the body. Compared with the Tang army, it is much inferior to the Tang army.

In response to this, Pei Min also made a request to Hun Shizhi that these Tuyuhun soldiers could master the Chinese language as soon as possible so that the army would cooperate in the future, and naturally did not forget to talk about military discipline and discipline...

"I know your habit is to retreat if you can't defeat and like to use guerrilla tactics. But this set is not applicable to us. Once our Tang Dynasty moves troops, it will definitely attack on a large scale, with infantry and cavalry. It is important to cooperate with the three armies. One army retreats will affect the defeat of the three armies. Therefore, even if the situation is unfavorable, it cannot retreat. The enemy is too large and we are too few, and we cannot retreat. Especially when charging, if the front team is timid, the rear team can kill themselves without being bound by any military law."

Hun Shizhi's face changed slightly. This kind of iron rule of military discipline is not available in Tubo or Tuyuhun.

I also understood for a moment why the Tang Dynasty is so terrible today, and why Dazhalugong dared not go deep into Jinshan to pursue them.

In case of unnecessary circumstances, who dares to provoke a commander like Pei Min? Provoke the soldiers under Pei Min?

"Duke!"

Hun Shizhi suddenly plucked up the courage and shouted.

"What?" Pei Min responded curiously.

The explanation of the word: "I want to take a look at other troops in Liangzhou, see and experience it for a long time, and I wonder if there is this opportunity."

Pei Min replied without hesitation: "This request is reasonable, and the trust of the three armies is the key to joint cooperation. In the near future, I plan to organize a military exercise, you can take a look together."

However, Yuchi Ke became more and more bold and even raped the women, and in the end he killed the enemy because of the other party's resistance.

Du Xian has a standard literati temper. He has a small fuss and can tolerate it for the overall situation. But once he gets over the fire and breaks his own bottom line, there is no slightest feeling to tell.

After learning about this, Du Xian handled it impartially and ordered someone to arrest Yuchi Ke.

No matter how Yuchi Tiao pleaded for mercy, Du Xian was unmoved and sentenced to Yuchi Ke to death and beheaded after the autumn.

Du Xian read all the files and archives about Yuchike.

However, because Yuchi Tiao's special identity was the nominal king of Khotan, the country of Khotan was quite appealing.

Du Xian handled it impartially, but had to be careful of Yuchi Tiao's plan, so he had this question.

Du Xian’s confidant Meng Lingcha said: “Yuchi Tiao is quite quiet. There are no other abnormal movements at present. I just run around from multiple sources, hoping to get the Deputy Chief Protector to open the net.”

"Hmph!" Du Xian smiled contemptuously and said, "I have given him face more than once, and asked him to discipline his son well. It was his own indulgence that he had to bear part of the responsibility of today. Whoever said that it was useless. Keep watching, before Yuchike was executed, he should not take it lightly, so as not to cause sudden changes."

Fu Meng Lingcha replied loudly: "I understand!"

Du Xian put the file in his hand aside and found a letter hidden in the accumulated file today. He curiously took out the letter from the underground first. Seeing that the letter was Tuqi Shi Sulu Khan, Man opened the envelope and looked at the contents inside.

The handwriting of the letters is extremely beautiful and beautiful, and it seems to be someone else's writing.

Du Xian did not dare to neglect it. Looking closely, he couldn't help but frown when he saw that the content of the letter was about talking to him about business.

Tuqishi has been in contact with the Tang Dynasty for many years, and it has been common for transactions to deal with each other.

As a nomadic people, the cattle and horses produced by Tuqishi have always been the treasures needed by the Tang Dynasty.

Now the Tang Dynasty has developed rapidly and its country's economy is sufficient. It often buys cattle and horses from surrounding foreign races such as Tuqishi and Uighurs. However, the Tang Dynasty either uses coins or uses cotton, medicinal materials, cloth, rice and grain to exchange things, and each has its own needs.

However, this matter has always been the responsibility of the Beiting Protectorate. How did Sulu Khan find him?

After reading it carefully, Du Xian was furious when he saw the proportion of the ox and horse bargaining in Sulu Khan's letter, and shouted: "What a Sulu, I'm a literati!"

It turned out that while Sulu Khan raised the price of cattle and horses in his heart, he also bet on the prices of cotton, medicinal materials, cloth, and rice.

Originally, Du Xian had no contact with Gai Jiayun in the Beiting Protectorate, because Gai Jiayun was a military general and he was a civil servant.

But Pei Min made a move from it, intending to connect Anxi, Beiting and Hexi in the Western Regions to communicate with each other.

Du Xian respects Pei Min's identity as Emperor Wenzong, and Gai Jiayun also admires Pei Min's military achievements. The three of them also have deep correspondence.

Du Xian remembered that Gai Jiayun said about this in his letter, but the proportions were different.
