Chapter 9 Blessing General
Speaking of both ends, the army that failed to search for Jieli is about to turn white, and even the rats in the hole in the entire grassland are about to be dug out to verify the identity, will this Jieli still fly away? This kind of melancholy added to the remnant cloud after the round with Zhang Baoxiang's army.
Li Jing and Tang Jian sat opposite each other in the lobby of Dingxiang City, a rare scene, since Su Lie's horse stepped on Dingxiang and attacked Jieli at night, it was rare that Tang Jian did not raise his eyebrows and look at Li Jing, you must know that Su Lie stepped into Dingxiang with one foot, and Tang Jian stepped into the ghost gate with one foot.
Although Tang Jian knew that Ci was not in charge of the army, even if he would choose to take advantage of the weakness to attack, but the civil and military disputes have existed since ancient times, and the posture still needs to be sufficient, otherwise what are you going to do when the civil ministers contact the military generals?
Rebellion? Suspicious of life? The two of them were frowning and thinking about each other, Jieli didn't see it, Tang Jian almost caught his life, but Jieli ran away, the Tang Dynasty didn't capture Jieli with the strength of the whole country, grabbed a bunch of rice buckets, this group of sheep-flavored Turkic barbarians didn't have other abilities to eat, but it was a top trick, and then Jieli pulled a vote to harass the border pass?
How do you go back to Chang'an? Tang Jian is also angry, how can you write this battle report? Catch a group of nobles from all walks of life? Jieli is on the run? Everyone's caught, it's bad? Is it so accurate? All caught is just one Khan away? Oh, the two emperors of Chang'an were looking forward to you coming to the grassland to fight a wolf, but you hit a litter of rabbits? Are you kidding me?
At this time, the soldiers came to report: "Report! General Cheng of Yunzhou sent his own soldiers to say that there was an urgent military situation to make it clear to his face! Li Jing's heart suddenly, Yunzhou urgent report? Could it be that Goguryeo sent troops? No, even if Goguryeo sent troops to Cheng Zhijie's bravery, he wouldn't be in a hurry to repay me, in Cheng Zhijie's opinion, it was just right to send troops to fight and have military merits, he wished that I would know a lot of military merits later, could it be that he was attacked and suffered heavy losses?
Li Jing stood up and thought quickly, and said, "Bring it in!" After a while, Cheng An walked in with a frosty face, these days people have been working day and night, and finally arrived to hand over the small order before Cheng Biting Jin's departure, and was about to salute Li Jing casually, but the small order passed over in person, seeing that it was the Cheng family standing under the hall, and Cheng An said: "Don't be formal, it's He Jun who reported quickly."
Cheng An hurriedly clenched his fists and said: "Chief Li, my general went out of the city three days ago to inspect and capture Jieli Khan, and the general sent me to send a letter to the chief to inform him that the three armies would not do useless work!" Li Jing...... Tang Jian ......, okay, my Jieli, who was sleeping in the open and sleeping in the three armies, was actually caught by you, and went out of the city to inspect?
There is not even a business trip near Yunzhou where chicken feathers and duck blood are beaten on the grassland, and you go out of the city to patrol? Let's hunt! The three armies here are tired, and I still offended Tang Jian to death, but the first merit was actually won by an idler who was hunting, what is this called! Tang Jian also looked at Cheng An dumbfounded at this moment? What the? Jieli? Caught by Cheng Biting Jin? So he asked, "How was Jieli captured?"
Cheng An was also honest and said: "I don't know, my general went out of the city to hunt three days ago, no!" Three days ago, my general went out of the city to inspect, and picked up Cheng Qianniu and tied Jieli and more than 20 horses, to say that this Cheng Qianniu really has a hand, a phoenix wings gilt boring to make the airtight, my general attacked forty or fifty moves stunned did not attack into it......"
Picked up? The first time he heard about picking up money and picking up things, Tang Jian was a little confused, Li Jing was also puzzled when he heard it, rubbed his eyebrows and said, "You wait first, who is this Cheng Qianniu, what's going on with him?"
Cheng An said: "Cheng Qianniu is Cheng Hong, my general personally sealed it three days ago, and after entering the city, my general personally gave him a military registration." Three days ago? That is to say, Jieli was caught by this Cheng Hong, and after being caught, he was picked up by Cheng Yanjin, three days ago, Cheng Yanjin was still hunting, so three days ago, Cheng An came from Yunzhou quickly, from here to Yunzhou, if you walk slowly, it will take about eight days, that is to say, the dozens of Jieli soldiers who saw more than ten days ago died in battle, and the place where Jieli was arrested, That is to say, a lucky man named Cheng Hong who came from somewhere was blocking Jieli and more than 20 pro-soldiers, and after a burst of killing, he captured Jieli, and then went to Yunzhou leisurely under his nose.
Li Jing and Tang Jian were speechless, what is this called? Tang Jian got up and dusted off the sleeves of his robe: "It's okay, this Turkic war has finally been completed, and the old man can write a song to the emperor Ming, this matter is not far away from the day of returning to Beijing, Mr. Li, farewell!"
After saying that, he laughed and went out. Li Jing sighed and sat down and gave an order: "Order all the departments in the army to stop searching and withdraw to the vicinity of the big tent, Jieli has been captured by Cheng Zhijie, and the Turkic extermination department will arrange to take care of the captured people and then return to Beijing with the general, Cheng An told your family that the general took Jieli and that Cheng Qianniu back to Chang'an together."
The strength of the whole country finally lived up to the grace of God in this battle. The generals of the various departments rectifying the soldiers and horses received the military report, and they guessed eight or nine in their hearts, and they had good tempers, such as Li Ji and Chai Shao, and said secretly in their hearts: Cheng Biting Jin, this blessing will be cheaper this time! Those with bad tempers, such as Wei Chi Gong and others, have already started scolding, and things like Cheng Lao are already good.
No matter how much they scolded the facts, Jieli was in Yunzhou, and the great work of pouring the sky slipped more than 900 miles under their noses and fell on the head of Cheng Biting Jin, who did not release an arrow, and the various departments had already foreseen Cheng Biting Jin's arrogant smile.
In the Taiji Palace of Chang'an City, Emperor Taizong, who was evaluated as the first emperor of the ages, was frowning and looking at the battle report, one by one, although everything was calculated, but the battle of the whole country could only be won and not defeated, how could he not care, not to mention that since the emperor was on the throne for three years, in addition to natural disasters and military disasters, the Tang Dynasty also needed a huge victory to inspire himself......
At this moment, he suddenly heard the uproar of the people in the city, and Li Shimin suddenly rose: "Zhang Yuanli! See what's going on out there? Zhang Yuanli, the head of the guards, strode out of the hall after answering the promise, and just arrived at the palace gate, he was bumped into a military officer holding a red feather urgent report while running and shouting: "The good news of the Western Expedition!" The Turks are gone! Jieli is captured! ”
Zhang Yuanli was stunned for a moment, and then followed the sergeant to the hall with joy, shouting as he ran: "Good news from the Western Expedition!" The Turks were destroyed, and Jieli was captured! ”
At this time, Li Shimin in the palace also heard it, the Turks are gone? Jieli captured? Without waiting for the sergeant to arrive in the hall, he hurriedly rushed out to receive the red feather report, and ordered left and right: "Sit!" Give water! Then he opened the Hongling Victory Report, which wrote a page of the battle of the battle, and finally wrote that the six ministers destroyed the enemy and captured 100,000 men and women, and Jieli could not be traced.
Ten days to hear that Jieli was captured by Cheng Hong, a son of aliens, and now he was captured by Cheng Zhijie in a mile outside Yunzhou City, and now Jieli is in Yunzhou City, this westward expedition does not live up to the trust of the saint. Minister Li Jing paused! Li Shimin watched it three times in a row and laughed: "The Turks are destroyed, the whole country celebrates, and the three armies will return with a big reward!"
Turned back to the hall and sat at the front of the case to read Xixi, and suddenly frowned for a while, huh? That's not right! This is the first credit of Cheng Zhijie! But how did Jieli run from the encirclement of the army to the city of Yunzhou? Inhuman children? Cheng Hong?
Li Shimin nodded two points on the word Cheng Hong, at this moment Cheng Hong, who was far away in Yunzhou, had already been remembered by the sage, and after capturing Jieli, he was able to run out of Yunzhou City for eight or nine hundred miles under the nose of the army, and Tanma didn't find it? This Inhuman Disciple aroused the great interest of the Emperor of the Ages......
For a while, the whole Chang'an was in a boil, the people and merchants on the street were overjoyed, even the duck in the river was three degrees higher, and the ministers hurriedly went out of the mansion or rode horses or sedan chairs and went straight to the palace.
The ministers all went to the front of the palace for a moment to pay homage in unison: "Congratulations to the emperor on his victory in the west!" Since then, the Turks have been free! Li Er laughed, and then the monarch and the ministers worked together in harmony to meet the army and the prisoners and many other matters......
What is Cheng Hong doing these days? Cheng Hong is busy, since Cheng Yanjin wants to find a female donkey for the horse head to match Cheng Hong, the horse head is fine, Cheng Hong is big, bad luck is bad luck in his little eyes, at that time Cheng Yanjin looked ashamed and diverted the topic to praise himself for being pro-army, Jieli also agreed, Cheng Hong's disdainful eyes were not happy when Cheng Yanjin saw it.
The two big hands gestured and drooled: "Just now, the old man looked at me with this look, what do you mean by me praising two pro-soldiers, you kid?" It's not Lao Cheng, I'll blow it, except for His Majesty's Xuanjia Army, my Lao Cheng's personal soldiers are really not worthy, what's the matter with you kid? It's not enough to see, is it? You tell me that if you can't say that you can't come to eat today, you won't eat fifty military sticks first! ”
Cheng Hong didn't want to step on this group of hooligan gangs, if he didn't say a few words today, this military stick doesn't look like a joke, look at Cheng Lao Goblin, if he doesn't say something, this military stick is decided, so Cheng Hong said: "Look at the general and follow all the strong and strong people, if there are few winners to one, but dare to ask the general, is there a difference between the army and the bandits?" The army is strong and cooperative, a single person may not be able to beat the bandits, but ten people can beat the bandits twenty without injury, a hundred people to the bandits three hundred escaped must be bandits, will be the soul of the army, and the most important thing for the army is to cooperate, if the army is not you, me and him, everyone is like a person, a hundred feet and a hundred hands cover each other, advance and retreat together, this is a strong army, look at the general's personal soldiers, only the word brave. ”
Cheng Biting Jin was also shocked by the sentence One person with a hundred hands and a hundred feet, and when Cheng Hong finished speaking, the total amount, oh, you said that I Cheng Biting Jin is a group of bandits! This pro-soldier has become a bandit, what is my old Cheng? Bandit leader? Wagang will not be a bandit in the future, this is all a general, and you will become a bandit leader again in your mouth?
Roll of the eyeballs: "Drink!" The little doll's tone is not small, I Lao Cheng's four hundred and two personal soldiers are divided in half, if you take two hundred and one or three months, you don't bring a sample to fight with the fifty military sticks you owe today! Cheng Gong, help the little doll divide the troops to divide the two hundred soldiers to the little doll, and you take the two hundred and one personal soldiers first, if you can't compare to the little doll after three months, you and Cheng An will have fifty military sticks per person. ”
Cheng Gong clenched his fists, "No!" "The leader of the pro-soldiers who was far away in Dingxiang didn't know that he had signed a bet with fifty military sticks, and it was a bet that he would lose.
