    Because of the Lu family¡¯s affairs, the plan to go south to conquer the counties in Hebei next spring may also come to naught.

    Hebei is the hometown of major aristocratic families. Now that Huang Mingyuan goes south, not only will he not get support from various families, he will even be held back everywhere.

    If you attack rashly, the outcome is really unpredictable.

    So Huang Mingyuan decided to strengthen himself first and continue to develop the counties in Youzhou. When the new tax system is fully rolled out and the counties in Youzhou are completely stable, he will go south after the next summer's grain harvest.

    Postponing it for three or four months will at least ensure that hundreds of thousands of troops will not go hungry.

    When he thought about the food problem, Huang Mingyuan felt that he was absolutely right to develop maritime transportation and layout Jiaozhi and Linyi.  It was the food from the south that was continuously transported to the north by sea that gave him enough food to fight against the wealthy families.  Otherwise, just for food alone, I would go crazy worrying about it.

    Huang Mingyuan also received replies one by one to the letters he sent.

    Her mother still supports what Huang Mingyuan does, even if she breaks with her mother's family.  After Huang Mingyuan's letter was delivered, his mother's letter was also delivered. In the letter, his mother comforted Huang Mingyuan, not to worry about her, and there was no need to shrink from what she should do.

    As for the pressure she was under, there was no mention of it.

    Huang Mingyuan sighed after reading his mother's letter, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart.  As a son, he cannot serve his mother at his knees. Instead, he makes her worry about him all day long, which is really unfilial.

    The letter to the Cui family and others was also sent back.  His uncle, because he had been away from the Cui family for so many years, had even forgotten that he was a member of the Five Surnames and Seven Families, so he did not question Huang Mingyuan too much.  As for others, they are more or less afraid.  Of course, alienation is inevitable.

    However, Huang Mingyuan took the initiative to write a letter to the Cui family, which was an explanation. Therefore, although the Cui family was dissatisfied, they were finally somewhat comforted.  However, his uncle Cui Minqian comforted Huang Mingyuan and expressed his willingness to write letters to other major families to explain Huang Mingyuan.

    "Among my uncles, Cui Minqian is the most capable. Otherwise, how could he have reached the Tang Dynasty and become the best family in the world, forcing Li Shimin to fight in person.

    Although it is not necessary, Huang Mingyuan always wants to thank people for having such a heart.

    The attack from the aristocratic family was very fierce, but it really couldn't hurt Huang Mingyuan.  In this world, nothing can hurt him except the human heart inside.

    This winter is a rare winter of leisure.

    Huang Mingyuan generally does not intervene in the specific government affairs of Youzhou, which are handled by the Xingtai and the shogunate.  However, Huang Mingyuan was not idle this winter. If he couldn't go south, he was ready to go north.

    The north is a good place.

    News of Tong Luo Xie's death has not yet come, but Huang Mingyuan expected that his troops would be defeated and would not move southward in a short time.

    In fact, Huang Mingyuan was not surprised at all by Zhang Wenyuan and Jing Yuanheng's results against the Tiele coalition.  They were all arranged by me in advance, it was just a matter of time.  What shocked Huang Mingyuan was that Tong Luo Xieye, the invincible Xiaoqiang, ran away again this time. It seemed that there would be trouble in the future.

    But Huang Mingyuan can't think about killing Tongluo tribe completely now.  Huang Mingyuan was now preparing to drive his troops north and take over a large area north of Yanshan.

    ??Looking from the map, the Daxinganling Mountains stretch for thousands of miles, all the way to Yanshan Mountain.

    This Daxinganling Mountains divides the grassland into two, with the vast grassland to the west and the Northeast Plain to the east.  This mountain range is like the Taihang Mountains that divide Hebei and Hedong. There are countless trails in it, but there are not many important roads that can be passed on a large scale. It is a natural line of defense.

    The weak Luoshui area not far to the east of the Greater Khingan Mountains was the place where the Khitans rose to prominence in later generations.  The land here is fertile and the grass is delicious, making it a natural pasture.  Once we occupy this place, there will be no shortage of land to raise horses.

    At this time, the Xi people surrendered and the Khitan fled north. The nomadic people in this area were empty of strength. It was a good time for the Sui Dynasty to intervene.

    So Huang Mingyuan ordered a checkpoint to be built at the intersection of the Daxingan Mountains and the Qilaotu Mountains in the Yanshan Mountains, and named it Zhenliaoguan (now Keshiketeng Banner, Inner Mongolia).

    This is the source of the weak Luoshui River, and it is also one of the few spacious fortresses in the Greater Khingan Mountains. Troops stationed here can block the grassland forces from entering the northeast.

    From the south of Zhenliaoguan, the Sui army blocked the trails along the terrain and controlled the roads.

    In the former Xi people¡¯s old land, the Yanshan Procurement and Capture Division was set up; in the Khitan¡¯s old land south of the Ruoluoshui River, the Yanbei Propulsion and Capture Division was set up in the east, and the Liaoxi Procurement and Capture Division was set up in the west.

    He ordered Zhao Shiti, the general of Hu Benlang who was stationed in Miyun, to serve as the envoy to appease and arrest people in Yanshan; Huang Mingxin, who was stationed in western Liaoning,??Yanbei recruited envoys to appease and arrest people; Liu Heitai, who was stationed in Yan County, recruited envoys to appease and arrest people in western Liaoning.

    Among the three recruitment and capture divisions, the Yanshan Division manages the Xi people and defends the front of Youzhou; the Yanbei Division develops to the north of the weak Luoshui River, targeting the Fe people north of the weak Luoshui River; and the Liaoxi Division also moves toward the north of the weak Luoshui River.  To develop in the north, the target is the Khitan people who fled north.

    The three of them each commanded eight thousand troops to expand northward, each looking for land to build cities, castles, and even the Great Wall. Hundreds of years later, the entire upper reaches of the Liao River would be Han land.

    In fact, for Huang Mingyuan, when he was wiping out Hebei, it was a bit inappropriate to use his limited power on the barren land in the north.  But this is like a horse race, no one will wait for you to mature.  Maybe ten years later, the country will be unified and there will be room to expand northward, but this area is occupied by other tribes. I don't know how much effort it will take to occupy it again.

    The two Liaoxi and Yanbei recruitment and capture divisions were under the jurisdiction of the Andong Protectorate; while the Yanshan recruitment and capture division was under the direct jurisdiction of Xingtai.

    The Sui army fought out from western Liaoning, and the military pressure on Yanjun and Liucheng counties dropped sharply.

    After Huang Mingxin went north, Huang Mingyuan took the post of Prime Minister of Liucheng County and took charge of county affairs with his own armor, Cao Shenjun and Yang Xiang.  Andal, who was originally stationed in Tongding City, moved to Luhe Town.

    After mobilizing troops to go north, Huang Mingyuan turned his attention to the northern border defense of Zhuojun.

    The Xuanhua forts were indispensable for the great defeat of Tongluoxie this time.  Through this battle, the importance of the Xuanhua Forts was further highlighted.  You can attack the grassland to the north, Hedong to the west, and Youzhou to the south.  After arriving, it will definitely be the most important advance base for Hebei to leave the fortress.

    So Huang Mingyuan asked for the establishment of three counties: Xuanhua, Huailai, and Yanqing. In addition to the previous Huairong County, there were already four counties outside Juyongguan.

    It is not convenient to set up a county now, so Huang Mingyuan used Hu Yalang, Chang Yunqing, as the magistrate of Xuanhua County.

    The land outside Juyongguan was originally a county, with a population of only a few thousand Han people, and the rest were mostly Hu people who were nomadic in Youzhou.  Including some naturalized Mohe people, Turks, and Tiele people.  Civilian management alone cannot suppress these Hu people, but the use of military control, such as in Liaodong, can better naturalize the Hu people.

    Yuyang County was also resettled, and Sun Fuga was appointed as the Prime Minister of Yuyang County to take charge of county affairs.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
