Chapter Sixty-Eight: Fame

Ten days later, Hou Junji led an army of 50,000 and rushed to Songzhou.

In the process, Tubo has sent envoys to Chang'an to hold armistice talks with the Tang Dynasty.

After Hou Junji came to Songzhou, he and Cheng Shengnan handed over the military defense affairs, and the two could return to Chang'an.

When he returned, Cheng Shengnan only returned with a hundred guards.

These soldiers are all personal soldiers of the Cheng Mansion, so naturally they do not need to be handed over to the imperial court.

And Li Su naturally brought Yanyun Eighteen Rides.

When you go back, you don't need to be in such a hurry.

Li Su and Cheng Shengnan, in the past ten days, the relationship has heated up sharply.

And when they were on the road, they all rode on horseback, and there was no carriage to sit on.

In front of everyone, the two naturally didn't dare to be too intimate.

You even have to deliberately separate a little distance to avoid suspicion.

However, the two eyebrows and secretly sent Qiu Bo.

Its lingering feelings, where are they still hidden.

Yan Yun's eighteen cavalry, as well as a hundred soldiers of the personal guards, were all seen in their eyes and happy in their hearts.

Their generals, as well as His Royal Highness King Liang.

I'm afraid I don't think they're all blind, right?

Can't even see this?

Of course, they dare to think about these words in their hearts.

I would never dare to say it.

They were all afraid of their General Cheng.

However, since they got along with King Liang, their General Cheng's temper seems to have improved a lot.

……

Half a month later, they returned to Chang'an.

Li Shimin personally led hundreds of civil and military officials to greet him outside the city gate.

After entering the city, the people of the entire Chang'an City were boiling and cheering.

No way, this time, Cheng Shengnan and Li Su are simply too long faces for the emperor.

It's too much for Datang to have a long face!

With only 3,000 vanguard troops, he killed nearly 20,000 Tibetan soldiers, recaptured three cities, captured Tibetan generals, and forced Tubo to retreat.

Such a great victory can be said to be unprecedented and unprecedented.

What's even more popular is that the general who led the troops is still a female general.

At the same time, there was also a prince in the army.

The prince also proposed: If you don't get along, don't marry, the monarch will die, and the prince will guard the country.

Through this battle, the prestige of the Tang royal family suddenly came to its peak.

The prestige of Li Su, the king of Liang, don't talk about it.

Even Li Shimin's prestige reached its peak for a while.

You must know that Li Shimin has been killing his brother and seizing the throne.

I've been trying to save my image.

But it hasn't had much effect.

But this time, all of a sudden, his image has changed a lot.

How does this not make Li Shimin overjoyed?

After returning to the dynasty, Li Shimin directly named Cheng Shengnan as the general of Pingnan and the title of barony of her county.

The title of General Pingnan is just that, but he is just a titled general.

Titled general, the rank can be large or small.

When there is no military power, this title is useless at all.

But the county baron, the title, can be Li Shimin very generous first.

The titles of each dynasty are basically the most when the founding emperor just conquered the country.

And after laying down the country, the emperor was extremely stingy with knighthood.

If you don't make great contributions, you won't be knighted.

Cheng Shengnan, based on her merits alone, is actually not enough to be knighted.

However, if we add to this the disparity in the strength of the two sides, plus the sensational effect it has played.

In addition, Li Shimin was very happy, and in the end, he knighted Cheng Shengnan.

Li Su, the king of Liang, was renamed the king of Shu and served as the governor of Yizhou.

However, there is no need for Li Su to go to the office.

In other words, people still stay in Chang'an, and the position of Metropolitan Governor is a fictitious title.

He only needs to receive a salary, and the affairs of Yizhou are still managed by the magistrate.

In fact, Li Su was originally named the king of Liang, and he was originally a prince.

Further up, there is no way to seal it.

Li Su's title has reached the ceiling.

There's no room to go up.

If it is a courtier with a foreign surname, at this time, the emperor will have no seal.

At this time, the emperor will think about cutting off his head.

In terms of knighthood, there is no room for rise.

Li Shimin simply rewarded Li Su with several villages.

……

On the way back, Li Su had already gotten angry with Cheng Shengnan.

is to give the credit for this men's recruitment, as long as it can be pushed, it will all be pushed to Cheng Shengnan.

After all, Li Su wants to be low-key.

What he wants most is fame.

Even the worse the reputation, the better.

In fact, this time the southern expedition, although Li Su made great contributions.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he himself has taken seven or eight points of credit.

However, the news that Li Su personally went into battle to kill the enemy was concealed.

The main people who killed the enemy were the 3,000 vanguard army led by Cheng Shengnan and the 18 cavalry of Yanyun.

In the newspaper of the Shangju Imperial Court, it was also written like this.

In the newspaper, Li Su's role has been reduced to a minimum.

However, this time the southern expedition, in fact, many people saw it and participated in it personally.

Cheng Shengnan also brought back a hundred personal soldiers.

After these pro-soldiers come back, where is the reason not to show off to their relatives and friends?

So, soon, all kinds of clever calculations and all kinds of immortal methods of His Royal Highness King Liang were well known.

His Royal Highness King Liang has clairvoyance and ears, and you can see the Tubo army thousands of miles away at a glance.

His Royal Highness King Liang has excellent medical skills, as long as his head is not cut off on the spot, no matter how serious the injury, His Royal Highness King Liang can rejuvenate with his skill.

What His Royal Highness King Liang can communicate with the heavens, rain down heavenly fire, heavenly thunder to punish the Tibetan soldiers.

His Royal Highness King Liang made a Trojan horse, and skillfully took Songzhou City through the means of hiding people in the belly of the Trojan horse.

Well, among these legends, there is probably only a Trojan horse meter, which is original and has not been processed.

In other respects, it is simply exaggerated to the point that it is about to go to heaven.

Not only is there a lot of discussion among the people, but there are also unscrupulous scholars who have compiled the matter of His Royal Highness King Liang and General Cheng's southern expedition into a script.

In the script, it is even more exaggerated.

General Cheng Shengnan, armed with a bright silver spear, can take the rank of general among the ten thousand armies.

Yanyun eighteen horses, with one as ten thousand, invincible.

His Royal Highness King Liang, resourceful as the sea, clever and calculating, has clairvoyance, ears to the wind, hooks the sky and thunder, earth fire, and has also obtained the secret power of the Fuxi clan to be able to live and die human flesh and bones.

And, in the book, Cheng Shengnan and His Royal Highness King Liang became the golden boy and girl.

The two of them are combined, and they have invincible magical powers.

As soon as this book came out, it immediately detonated the market.

Storytellers everywhere are even more based on the scripts and compile all kinds of jokes.

And for ordinary people, what they love to hear the most is this kind of story.

As a result, His Royal Highness King Liang, Cheng Sheng's male and female generals, and the names of Yanyun's eighteen horsemen can be said to be getting bigger and bigger.

This situation made Li Su very angry, but he was helpless.

This king tries his best to keep a low profile, but the strength doesn't allow it!
